Are people getting tired of Will Farrell?

semipro.jpgSemi-Pro has dribbled out about $25 million since Feb. 29, and it's shooting 22% from the free throw line. See, because the movie is about basketball.

Maybe the whole '70s thing is kind of tapped? I think '90s comedies are the way to go. Ferrell could play, like... a guy in a flannel shirt? And he... tries to get on The Real World even though he's 40? It would be a good excuse for Farrell to "accidentally" walk around with no pants and his flannel shirt open and his beer gut hanging out. (Because he has a bad body but he pretends he has a good body!) And whatever else happened in the '90s, he could make fun of that. YOU'RE WELCOME WILL FARRELL

The reason is that Blades of Glory blew, so people don't go see the next movie, Semi-Pro.

Didn't he promise us that we wouldn't be subjected to any more scenes with his ass cheecks hanging out? Liar!

The real reason is that the 70s were funny enough on their own. There's simply no need for parody movies.
