I'm heartbroken.
Adam was on Conan tonight... and it was awful.
First off, Adam had a black eye. They didn't talk about it, but it was pretty obvious.
But the reason I'm so upset is because of Adam's mouth. I love most of his old stand up, and most of his SNL comedy. And the last interview show I saw him on was, I believe Letterman, and he talked about how his jokes have changed since having children- which is true, I've noticed. His comedy style and movies have become more family oriented, which is nice.
One of the first jokes of the night, from Adam, was about his daughter catching him, his wife, and another man having sex. Sorry, Adam, I just didn't find that funny at all.
Next, he and Conan started talking about his new movie, "Just Go With It", and his first joke about it was that the original title was "Just Blow On It", and his visual portrayal of his face on the poster was, well... what it might look like if someone were 'blowing on it'. Not exceptionally funny, and not really necessary IMO. What, really, was the purpose of that joke? C'mon, Adam, you can do better than that.
Luckily he followed up with a good joke about the hot women in the movie (Jennifer Aniston, Nicole Kidman, and Brooklyn Decker) still not talking to him even though he is a movie star.
Unfortunately, his short lived, and limited rise from possible disaster, was thwarted with a tasteless, tacky, and disgusting follow up about him having to wear a bathing suit in the film, and being on his period, mercilessly throwing him back down into the pits of complete failure. There just isn't anything funny about hearing a man joke about 'seeing the string' hang down from his swim trunks, when it's clear you're NOT talking about your penis.
So.. I hate to say it, Adam, but I'm going to have to add this one to the 46 other thumbs down you've gotten for your 22 other movies.
But... I'll stay optimistic. Conan really enjoyed the new movie, so I hope to see it later this year.
