Well, a number of people voted for it so now it is time for me to induct the Happytime Murders, a film that took 10 years to make and may have been better left in development hell. A film that tries to be raunchy, but can't be as raunchy as Meet The Feebles. A film that shows us that once again, when left to her own devices, Melissa McCarthy gives us another terrible character and performance. Look at see the fruits of the puppeteers' labor be destroyed by a terrible script. monster-crap.blogspot.com/2019/02/monster-crap-inductee-happytime-murders.html

I will say that despite a lot of its flaws, I found myself busting up when I watched the film in theaters back in August. Then again, I guess maybe I am too forgiving when it comes to movies.
Good write-up, though.

See, here's the thing about MM. I read an interview she did for In Style (where she appears in some VERY nice photos too!) and it seems to me like she sees size as no object. As such I don't think she takes being a proper plus-size icon as seriously as some of us want her to. She just sees herself as just another comedienne, it seems. If that makes sense. Is it borderline oblivious? Maybe.
As for mature puppet shows, may I recommend the two series of BBC's "Mongrels"?

Good write-up, though. Oh I understand....especially in a theater where you are more or less looking for something funny to at least somewhat validate a ticket purchase

you are a trooper for watching this To be honest, I've seen way worse this year so in a humble way, I would not see myself as that much of a trooper for inducting this. But thanks for the compliment anyway.

I ended up watching this over a case of beer with a couple friends. We laughed a lot... but I'm not going to pretend like the movie was anything but garbage. I know the comedy was 90% because of the alcohol and my company, not the movie.
You have my sympathies good sir (even though you do't want them) for having to watch this and document your feelings and thoughts.
