Comedies really demonstrate why having at least two people is such a good format for reactions. It's hard to control the laughter when the person next to you is cracking up.

[@jemal999]

It also helps to distract from any shortcomings they might have. for example, i've always found the comedy stylings of Ben Stiller and Jack Black to get a bit repetitive/stale sometimes, but having all of them play off each other, this movie was the perfect amount of each.

[@DKSean]

When I saw this in cinema I didn't actually recognise Tom Cruise until his name appeared in the credits. My whole torso was already sore from laughing, and so that realisation almost killed me.

[@patjacksonpodium]

So two things: 1) In the theater, there was absolutely no break between the actual trailers and the fake ones. It went straight from some Jason Bourne type trailer to "I LOVE THA PUSSY!!!!" and it was the most awkward, uncomfortable silence I've ever experienced in a theater, until everyone finally got what the hell was happening. It was glorious. 😂 2) You HAVE to watch ¡Three Amigos! after this. It's a very similar plot, if you mixed it with The Seven Samurai. So freaking funny.

[@hellomark1]

[@vodengc520]

I was visiting a friend of mine in Vegas and we decided to go see this one in theaters. I ended up looking at my friend (before the Scorcher trailer played) and said "You got some weird fuckin' concessions out here", lol. A funny thing is, a year or so later, a friend of mine actually brought in a can of Booty Sweat for me. Apparently they made a limited run. I didn't drink it though, just put it on the shelf until one day the can was damaged and leaking, so I just threw it out.

[@sean437]

I still recall the confusion with those. Just sitting there wondering if these ads were real or what was going on. I think the second or third one solidified they were a joke.

I love how Tom Cruise told the casting director that he specifically wanted to have fat hands and to dance, its almost like there was specific studio hack that he was imitating that he really didn't like - which makes all his scenes so much funnier when you consider they're also personal diss tracks to some awful hollywood exec somewhere who's just like that. I'm not sure if it's meant to be actually Harvey Winestein or someone else, but its still great

[@arizona_anime_fan]

their are several stories around Hollywood about who Tom Cruise used Les Grossman to mock, the list includes Harvey Weinstein, and Stuart Cornfeld; if you look at pictures it's clear he used Stuart Cornfeld for part of the look. But apparently Tom had a recent run in with Harvey Weinstein (in 2007ish) while getting kicked out of Paramount pictures, and Tom used the role to stab him back; according to people who worked with Harvey, Cruise's impression of him is eerily accurate.

It might just be a bunch of them together. Cruise is now bigger than any studio producer. He's gotta be worth close to a billion.
