"Hi, I'm A Mac..." "...And I'm A Gay Porn Star"

Having read Brisco's review (which can only be described as sheer motherfucking brilliance), I went to go see Zack and Miri Make A Porno. And OH MY GOD I honestly haven't laughed that hard since, well, pretty much ever. I've seen pretty much every Apatow movie that matters, and all I can say is that Kevin Smith pretty much one-ups him in every possible way.

I think pretty much the best part of the entire movie comes in the form Brandon Routh and Justin Long. I know, Superman and the Mac Guy. Let that sink in for a minute. To be fair, they play a gay couple, and Justin plays a gay porn star. So, he kinda has that going for him. If you stay after the credits, there's even a lil bit about them afterwards.

Though there was this strange niggling thought at the back of my mind. The brashness, the cheekbones, the fact that he acted, produced and distributes his own gay porn...About halfway through their scene, I finally realised what was dancing around in my brain parts and nearly choked on my Reece's Pieces:

Justin Long was doing a near flawless portrayal of Michael Lucas (save for the accent).

I swear to God, look at the two pictures below, and note the eery similarity.




Seriously, how weird is that?

Oh, the weirdness of it all...

Sorry, it was released last Thursday. I'll go this week and review it for my radio gig on Saturday.
