Oh, good. I've always loved Tom Cruise's comedies like. . . Uh . . .
And even . . .
Oh my.

what a farce! I bet the only reason Cruise agreed to appear in a movie with Stiller is because he's one of the few actors who is even shorter than Cruise.

Luckily Stiller has a good track record with TV-to-film remakes.

I'll admit it does seem to have a modicum of potential, as long as it isn't totally campy.

Matt, are you joking with us? This is a joke, right? This sounds like a SNL sketch.

No joke. In fact, it's the first of two films they plan to do together.

I wanted to see the Nancy Drew threesome. But I guess that since you crossed it out it aint going to happen. Thanks Matt

Alert the Razzies, I believe they have a new candidate for worst movie and worst actor in a comedy for Mr Cruise.

I totally thought this was a joke - and you are bad, MWM - but in such a good way!
There is no way I will go see this - just no way - the Hardy Boys? Seriously?!
This is truly worthy of a WTF?!

OK, then if it's not a joke, I honestly cannot wait for this movie. It's going to be laughably bad.

What did Ben Stiller do to deserve this?
And Cruise has done comedy. Mission Impossible III.
