I saw this flick at the movies when it was out and I have to say it was one of the funnier movies I have seen in a while. It also had a bit of a heartfelt story in it and quite a few quotable lines.

It comes out on DVD tomorrow and I was wondering if anyone else is going to be picking it up or throwing it on their Netflix. I certainly will be.

Anyone else seen it?

From IMDB.

"Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott star in Role Models as Danny and Wheeler, two salesmen who trash a company truck on an energy drink-fueled bender. Upon their arrest, the court gives them a choice: do hard time or spend 150 hours with a mentorship program. After one day with the kids, however, jail doesn't look half bad. Once the center's ex-con director (Jane Lynch) gives them an ultimatum, Danny and Wheeler are forced to tailor their brand of immature wisdom to their charges, Augie (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) and Ronnie (Bobb'e J. Thompson). And if they can just make it through probation without getting thrown in jail, the world's worst role models will prove that, sometimes, it takes a village idiot to raise a child. "

you would know the actors from....
Paul Rudd = Knocked Up, Forgetting Sarah Marshall
Sean William Scott = Stiffler from American Pie
Christopher Mintz-Plasse = McLovin'
Jane Lynch = one of the crazy women from Best in Show

Oh, that one. Name just didn't ring a bell. I may rent it, but I doubt I will buy it. I don't much like that type of comedy.

I've been wanting to see this. I don't buy many movies, because I don't tend to rewatch them enough to warrant the purchase, but I'll definitely rent it.

I don't buy many movies

This is true of me as well. Although its more of a monetary issue than watching issue. :p

I'm thinking about throwing up onto my Netflix queue, but like PLOW, my queue is pretty sizable. Will take a while to get to it.
