DVD Talk review of 'Midgets vs. Mascots'
 
I read Cameron McGaughy's DVD review of Midgets vs. Mascots at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=40538 and...

awwww... did the sensitive, mascot chasing movie critic get offended? Maybe the reason for your small comedy DVD selection is because you wouldn't know a good comedy if it walked up and hit you in the face. I saw Midgets vs. Mascots a couple months ago at a screening. The theater was full of people laughing their asses of. No one seemed to mind that it was not the Gator from U of F. I honestly have no idea why it would have made the movie funnier if it were the actual mascot. This may be the most ridiculous review I've read in a long time. The so-called critic should do everyone a favor and stick with reviewing The Notebook and all the same crap in that genre of film. Leave the comedy reviews to someone who have a shred of humor. Hopefully, the people reading this review will realize you don't know what you are talking about and will check out Midgets vs. Mascots to judge for themselves.

AMEN pbrantford! i bought the dvd after seeing one of their ads (MINI MAYS!!!) and i've watched about 3 or 4 times since then. it's the perfect movie to watch after go to the bars. so ridiculously funny and stupid that you'll hurt from laughing at the sheer genius of it all. Plus after rewatching it, you really pick up on the hilarious one-liners that you might have missed the first time. All in all, it's a very very funny movie that won't disappoint.

Oh and Gary Coleman is a mess and it's really funny to watch his angry tirades/antics.

Cameron McGaughy,

First of all, if this movie was meant to be taken serious as a comedy for those with an intelligent sense of humor the title probably wouldn't have been so obvious. Second, not everything that you watch needs to be analyzed for themes and plots. The movie was meant to be as crude and offensive as possible and it did its job. As far as crude humor goes, I'd say it was one of the funnier movies I've seen in a while. It was also much less offensive than many of the South Park and Family Guy episodes (even though South Park and Family Guy are hilarious as well). Welcome to America my friend. This is the sense of humor of your fellow citizens, and if you dont like it, you can GIT OUT.
