Two thumbs down. Any movie about Cedar Rapids should focus on Notty Boy and the entire soundtrack should be Notty Boy's songs. Basically, I'm thinking 8 Mile, but in Cedar Rapids and starring Notty Boy instead of Eminem. That's the movie I want to see.

Product placement better include a couple of Nissen trampolines, or I'm going to scream "BOGUS" at the top of my lungs. Each screening theater should also pump in some signature Penick & Ford...aroma...to provide authenticity.

Nevermind, the first shot out the plane window was Quaker Oats. The second of the freeway, was not Cedar Rapids, nor was the skyline.

I don't think that first shot was, I paused it and couldn't make out where it was. I didn't look at it again but I thought it was a shot from the north looking south in the bottom you could see Quaker Oats, the 380 S curve and the Alliant building.

You know what's kind of funny abuot the premise of this movie is that when I was a kid I thought CR was some huge metropolis. Until I was about 11 years old CR and Des Moines were the largest cities I had been to and coming from a town of about 250 people it seemed fucking huge.
Now that I'm older and have been to quite a few different cities Cedar Rapids seems like a big town more than a small city. When I first started going to school in CR after going to Montezuma I thought it was going to be like Dangerous Minds and shit. lol

I see a lot of truth on the premise in the movie and the goings-on at insurance conventions but that's not gonna be enough to get this thing going as a top-notch flick.
I'm probably a bit jaded though since I have either experienced some things in that movie or know people who have.
Also, insurance really isn't all that funny. I'm just gonna go ahead and predict a "fail" until proven otherwise on this flick.

Twine, do you ever make it back to Montezuma? I've been to the Monte Tap a few times. That place is the epitome of hole in the wall, but I did see some really disgusting tits there one night. The same girl offered to bang herself with a bomb pop.....classy lady that one.

With it being such a small town, we probably know who that chick is. I'm sure she shits class.

The first overhead shot in fact IS Cedar Rapids. The second one unfortunately is Philadelphia. Good lord, they show the Philadelphia Museum of Art (where Rocky ran down the stairs) like that wasn't a dead give away that it wasn't Cedar Rapids. Dumb fucks

If memory serves, she was lake trash......but I was pretty heavy into the PBR's that night, so memory may not serve.

Do you guys know Rob Rindels? Sure...not too well but know him. He was probably about 5 years older than us...so he'd be closer to my brother's age. I went to a game with my brother and we actually saw him at a bar and hung out with him for a while. I think that was about 2-3 years ago.

Loves the hawks and likes to get fucked up and do dumb things. He would fit in well with this crowd.
