"The Onion News" (comedy, watch, Steven Seagal, songs)

I had waited awhile to watch this one and I did last night.

Holy crap, I thought most of it was effin' HILARIOUS!! And right on the money satire-wise, too. Refreshing and scathing!

I know humor is very individual, but anyone care to weigh in? My feelings on this movie was that this is the type of stuff Saturday Night Live used to do, back when it was actually funny. Now SNL is just another bubble-gum p.o.s. show, unfortunately. The only funny parts are Tina Fey/Amy Pohler (first female comedians I've laughed out loud at for a while), and the Weekend News sketch that's been part of SNL since the beginning.

SNL should go back to the style of comedy/satire/sarcasm so wittily expressed in "Onion"

If you're talkin' about The Onion Movie, I find the racial profiling sketch of the wigger hilariously funny.

And of course Steven Seagal as Coc* Puncher.

Yup, hilarious indeed! I laughed my azz off at that same part you described.

Sorry--title is indeed "The Onion Movie", not the Onion News" my bad.

Great hits on the media/pop culture--also found the bit with Britney Spears look-alike defending songs like "Shoot Your Love All Over Me"- -effin' HILARIOUS!! LOL
