And comedian Scott Seiss, the angry Ikea employee guy! At least for a little bit, it looks.

I've had it with these monkey-fighting bears snorting my Monday-to-Friday cocaine.

Will this movie be good? Probably not. Does anyone involved in this movie expect they were making a good movie? I hope not. Does it look like a ridiculous amount of fun? Yes. Will I watch it while drinking in a hotel room? Yes, because I now have a new goal for next year.

I like Elizabeth Banks and while her Charlie's Angels wasn't great, I still enjoyed it (and she knows what movie she made and she had fun). I want her to just be as weird as she wants to be. I hope everyone had fun making this.

Seriously though I love shit like this. Every few months or so I get in the mood where everything is funny on the internet and then I spend an hour or so surfing and laughing till I can’t breathe and this movie looks just like the type of movie to kick off that kind of mood, like a foul language furry vengeance.

I love the idea of this movie and it’s good to know I’ll be able to watch it if the mood strikes me. I probably won’t watch it unless it’s an option on a long flight, but I still love the idea of it. That’s probably enough for me.

Wait ... is that ... Isiah "Clay Davis" Whitlock Jr.? Someone has finally made a crossover movie of The Wire and Paddington Bear?! I'm in.

I feel like there's been an undercurrent of Snakes on a Plane and Sharknado movies (but not Human Centipede...I hope) of which this is a refinement. Keep 'em coming, if they're using the "Golden Age of 80s Slashers" development model we have some amazing movies waiting for us in the future.

I note that this will end up being Ray Liotta's last film appearance.

Not quite like Raul Julia's last film appearance being in a video-game inspired thing called Street Fighter, but....I somehow feel like this is close.

Studio note: More coke for bear, less coke for Ray Liotta.

< Will this be the second coming of Snakes on a Plane?>

A mash up could be good. The snakes and the bear on the plane. “Let them fight”

This story is an absolute legend here in Knoxville, TN (where the body was discovered in the driveway.) Can't wait to see the movie.

I shared this on my facebook page; one of my facebook contacts is quite matter-of-fact about his cannabis use, and responded:
I'm looking forward to the sequel, Weed Bear, in which the bear walks downwind of a huge pile of confiscated weed being burned, and then goofily invades the local grocery stores, restaurants, pizzerias, and bakeries. It's mandatory that there will be a scene with a Dead band, including kind veggie burritos and grilled cheese sandwiches galore.

Adderal Bear

Adderall Bear is a rocket scientist with a serious meth addiction. The movie is a rollercoaster from beginning to end.
