it is not really a fat comedy, this movie is about an idiot with a rich dad who dies and he saves the town because his dad owned the factory that gave everyone jobs

Well it's not a fat comedy in the sense that it's about Tommy's weight, there are just constant fat jokes, gags, puns, etc. It's one quarter gross-out comedy, one quarter sex-comedy, and one half idiot comedy (think Dumb & Dumber, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective, Billy Madison). And like Dumb & Dumber, it sucks completely.

Ah, yeah, don't like that stuff. I like more well thought out comedies. Witty stuff. No fart jokes. Or gross out stuff. Childish junk.

I like very few comedies. The comedies I like and own...

Captain Ron
Clifford
What About Bob?
Mrs. Doubtfire
The Birdcage
Father of the Bride 1&2 (Steve Martin ones)
National Lampoon's European Vacation
National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

and a few others I can't think off the top of my head

I never saw the whole movie but from parts that I saw I laughed my ass off. My friends like this movie. I mean what do you expect from a guy who likes Wayne's World?

I can't hear you, you're trailing off and did I catch a niner in there?

Tommy: Where are we gonna take the deer?
Richard Hayden: I dunno, the vet?
Tommy: You take dead animals to the vet?
Richard Hayden: Why not? I'd take you to the vet.
Tommy: Yeah I'll take you to the... Um...
Richard Hayden: Got that?
Tommy: Shut up.

Ok this one is with the deer, I love that part where it comes back to life and he's like.
Tommy: I've seen some crazy stuff in my time, but that... was... AWESOME!!! Oh, sorry about your car, man. That... That sucks.
Tommy: Forget it, I quit, I can't do this anymore, man. My head's about to explode. My whole life sucks. I don't know where I'm going, what I'm doing. My dad just died, we just killed Bambi, I'm out here getting my ass kicked and every time I drive down the road I wanna jerk the wheel INTO A GODDAMNED BRIDGE EMBUNKMENT!!!
