Three years and zero washes later…

Where do you live, Jimmy Fallon? From left to right, the SNL wunderkind on the cover of Paper‘s November 2001 issue; and the star of Taxi featured as “Man of the Week” in the October 18, 2004 issue of Us

I’m pretty sure both photos are from the shoot, which means that Us is the problem here — picking from outdated stock — not Fallon. Still, that doesn’t forgive him for Taxi, which is so bad that I demanded my money back (for both the movie and for the Queen Latifa doll that I bought at the theater).

The picture must be from 2001, when Mr Fallon still looked fresh: in _Taxi_ he looks, well, _wrong_, like he’s been Botoxed or he’s bloated or his eyebrows are overly tweezed or he’s gotten into something. Too many late nights?

Jimmy Fallon sucks. I had a run-in with him once at an event where I was trying to help him, as it was my job, and he was a complete dick head- I’m glad his movie sucks- he deserves it.

Jimmy Fallon does NOT suck. I had a run-in with him once at an event where I was interviewing him, as it was my job, and he was charming and pleasant. I will reserve judgment on his film until I see it.

i had a dream about jimmy fallon once. it was rad, we hung out until he stole my dream girlfriend. damn.

I met him once when he was tired after suffering through a performance on Last Call with King Low Culture: Carson Daly. Fallon was kind to each fan who approached him, even the fat ones. The picture from US Weekly was from Paper Magazine – I get both magazines. I highy doubt US Weekly has the time or resources to track down their Men of the Week for a photo shoot, because let’s get serious: Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan are getting drunk and flashing tit; or Britney is walking into a gas station in her (eww!) bare feet. That’s no shame on Fallon. I tought Taxi would be horrible: sure it’s not riddled with Goddard, but it did make me and my boyfriend laugh. The advertisements are key, it lists “the good guys, the bad guys, the something-something ride.” The distrubutors make no pretense about Taxi being anything other than a juvenile, STOCK comedy, so it’s disappointing that critics have to go out of their way to berate Fallon. Yeah, it’s low culture (and despite my B.A. degree in Film and Media Theory) – I love it.

Today I have a topic I am an expert on: how much Jimmy Fallon sucks. Who decided this guy was funny? They sure didn’t ask me. Now, we all know SNL has sucked for years now, and I blame it on Jimmy Fallon. Even the seasons before he was around. His suckitude is so great that it transcends time and space.Now, to be a comedian, you have to be funny. Jimmy Fallon seems to think that being a comedian consists of mugging to the camera every second he is on it. And he’s just got this smarmy, awful smile that just screams “I’m funny, really! Look at me!” He did the Weekend Update too. He tried, anyway. Not to say any of the jokes are good to begin with, but any that had a chance at a chuckle are butchered by his awful delivery. He cracks up laughing all the time at his own jokes. That is the worst thing you can possibly do when you tell jokes for a living. In fact, he does it in all the sketches he is in too. I don’t see why he cracks up, either, the writers on that show suck. And he seems to think he is the next Adam Sandler and sings some awful songs (at least a few of Sandler’s were funny). I heard one on the radio, and needless to say, I would rather listen to Hey Ya! on a two hour loop. This is not a complement to Hey Ya! either. I hate that song with the burning fury of a thousand suns. In conclusion, up yours, Jimmy Fallon. I hope you die.
