Fuck ... so wrong. But still much preferred to the tired old "I threw up in my mouth a little" response.

Thank you thank you thank you for putting that up. I missed the show and while the liveblogging was hilarious, I needed the images to make the experience complete. Those were the only parts I wanted to see, anyway. Bless you.

Oddly enough, despite all the crazy yelling scenes, the one that cracks me up the most is Rosie's quiet moment when she says "You're gonna wake up! You're gonna wake up!"

And the emmy goes to... Ms. Shrills McOveracting.

a real treat
we are real afficiana-TARDO's and enjoyed the highlight reel.
Rosie was EP of the flick -- if she wasn't the BOSS -- any other director would have asked:
what the HELL are you doing ?!!
Your character is NOT deaf & lose the baby talk!

I tried the eyes closed bit... I couldn't shake the image of a chromosomally challenged muppet.

OH ... MY ... GOD
I can't even formulate a proper response to that. I don't know what to think...

I heard she went with Gunner Peterson to get in shape for this role. Could we expel her from the country? She has really lost all touch with reality.

i didn't watch the movie but this montage reconfirms exactly why i chose to skip it.
i teach special education and i have NEVER experienced anything like this. thank you, rosie o'donnell, for taking every single stereotype about the mentally challenged and rolling them into one shitty piece of acting. this is almost as self serving as ty and his extreme makeover crew.
good god.

Some people should be put on a national reserve list of possible candidates for hostage exchange. Rosie O'Donnell without this performance makes the list - with this performance she tops it.
Posted by: Queenie's Daughter | May 3, 2005 2:58 PM(#14 of 91)
QD, that wouldn't work. What self-respecting hostage taker would exchange anyone for Rosie?
Posted by: Ashes | May 3, 2005 3:12 PM(#15 of 91)
God. From my experience with the, shall we say, differently challenged, she's a little clean. And a tad strident. Where's Mickey Rooney when you need him? (That would be fun- Rosie vs. the original Bill- death match)

Jesus tap dancing christ!!!
what the hell was that?!!
I knew this movie was gonna BLOW but man oh man, they really topped everything I'd imagined they would do...

I have such a new profound respect for 'tards now. Thank you Rosie.

Wait, did I miss the part where she starting acting?

"I just came...is that wrong?

I don't think so. As for the montage, the was about the funniest thing I've see all day. And I've seen some really funny stuff today.

Any chance of posting the montage in Windows Media format????
Posted by: chris | May 3, 2005 3:50 PM(#21 of 91)
thank you so much. That felt awesome!
Posted by: ang | May 3, 2005 4:05 PM(#22 of 91)
Another name is carved into the pantheon of actors who have decided that a heartfelt portrayal of the mentally challenged was a good career move...I watched that whole train wreck on Sunday and if it wasn't for gin, I'd be scarred for life...thanks for the Emmy reel...
Posted by: Hollis Mulwray | May 3, 2005 4:12 PM(#23 of 91)
maybe the real Beth has similiar mannerisms to what Rosie did in the movie. I dunno, just a thought.
stereotypes are stereotypes because they're sometimes true, y'know?
that being said, from what I've read/seen (thank you, TVgasm!), I still don't think it was a very good movie -- regardless of Rosie's performance. I've never liked Andie McDowall; she almost ruined "Four Weddings and a Funeral" for me, and I'm all about British humor and charming cads like Hugh Grant.
eh.
Posted by: devil's advocate | May 3, 2005 4:16 PM(#24 of 91)
tip: replay the scene with rosie freaking out when she first enters her dads hospital room 10 times. it's truly great.
Posted by: mike | May 3, 2005 4:21 PM(#25 of 91)
oh wow. anyone else notice the end of rosie's weird mutant noise sounds like a cats meow?
Posted by: mike | May 3, 2005 4:29 PM(#26 of 91)
What. The fuck.

This was wrong on so many levels...Yet I still laughed. I must be evil, or just insensitive. I don't know which.

Everybody who was involved in this Hallmark (Hell-Marked) catastrophe should get their Screen Actors Guild cards (and Directors Guild cards, etc., etc.) yanked away from them immediately. The cards should not just be taken away, but torched and then flushed down the john ... appropriate, since toilets had such a huge presence in the movie. (Hey, they had more presence than the 'actors' did.)
Posted by: Casey | May 3, 2005 5:54 PM(#32 of 91)
That sucked and i think that you wasted your time putting all that together. i dont know why i even watched it. what a waste
Posted by: Matt | May 3, 2005 6:07 PM(#33 of 91)
She suffers from voice immodulation.
Either that, or her character is related to Apprentice 3's Chris. The "ALWAYS YELLING" syndrome.
Posted by: British | May 3, 2005 6:36 PM(#34 of 91)
It may just be me, but when I closed my eyes all I heard was Rosie O'Donnell doing a horrrrrrible Pee Wee Herman impression...
Posted by: hmmm | May 3, 2005 7:23 PM(#35 of 91)
After watching this, I got the sudden urge to find Rosie and kill her so I dont ever have to hear her Muppet voice again.

You have to read The Filthy Critic's review of this show:

I just watched it again. I have to thank you guys for sitting through that and making the collage up. I don't know how you could watch that and not have ended the night both homicidal and suicidal. I did see two minutes if the show before I had to change the channel ... but how could you not include the scene of Rosie sitting on the bench, crying and eating that donut? High comedy!
Posted by: dumbanddumber | May 3, 2005 8:06 PM(#38 of 91)
I think she was trying to do Amy Poehler's "Caitlin" character from SNL. Especially when she kept chanting "Rick, Rick, Rick!"
Posted by: The Pop Culture Petri Dish | May 3, 2005 8:14 PM(#39 of 91)
I waited all day on my non Quick Time playing work computer to come home and watch this thing. I was not let down. Holy shit is all you can say.
Posted by: Leah3t | May 3, 2005 8:36 PM(#40 of 91)
Pop Culture Petri Dish - I thought the same thing. Especially since one of the characters name was Rick. I kept imagining Amy Poehler yelling "RICK! RICK! RICK!"
Posted by: B-Side | May 3, 2005 8:59 PM(#41 of 91)
holy shit it right, especially since I thought you were exaggerating about all the toliet moments in RTBWMS.
But no, Rosie does talk about taking a shit a lot.
and then she stops the talk, scream) and does shit.
the end product? this movie.

RE:

.................
Rosie/Beth:
"I SPEAK FACTS! YES SIR, I AM A RETARD, AND THAT IS A FACT !!! YES, SIR, I AM A HOMOSEXUAL, BUT I PLAY THE CHARACTER IN THE MOVIE THAT LIKES THE BLACK MEN!"
I can't get out of my mind that she wants to "do things" to the Fresh Prince himself. For that, I am sure I am going to need some serious time with a shrink to block out the mental image.
Posted by: Casey | May 4, 2005 5:25 AM(#44 of 91)
When she shouts like that, she sounds like Ray Romano.
What I liked best about the clip, though, was how subtle and restrained Rosie's performance was. Masterfully understated.
Posted by: Boris | May 4, 2005 8:45 AM(#45 of 91)
Angelica Huston, thank you. You are a classy dame.
Posted by: eric ambler | May 4, 2005 9:44 AM(#46 of 91)
Leah3T, I had to wait to come to work to be able to watch this! And Casey--HA!!! "likes the black men!"
Beautiful montage. Loved the toilet seat, toilet seat, and toilet seat scenes!
Posted by: Jess | May 4, 2005 9:52 AM(#47 of 91)
I have officially lost it. I keep watching this and laughing my ass off more and more at how it goes from all the daddy-mournin' to the random marshmallow quote and then "well, you'll have to excuse me because I have to go to the bathroom!"
Seriously, I have tears on my cheeks. People at work are gonna think my boyfriend broke up with me all over again! HA!
Posted by: jess | May 4, 2005 9:59 AM(#48 of 91)
She actually appeared more intelligent than ever. now thats acting.
Posted by: Tank | May 4, 2005 12:45 PM(#49 of 91)
OMG! She is like a muppet combined with PeeWee Herman. That was such a great montage.....thank you.
My favorite part was where she says, "Excuse me, I have to use the bathroom." But she raises her eyebrow and just overacts it to the hilt. Ohhhh, some great, great work.
Posted by: Genevieve | May 4, 2005 1:29 PM(#50 of 91)
So subtle. So delicate... like the wing of a baby bee. I closed my eyes and was transported inside the Y chomosome blender that is Rosie O'Donnel. Ahhh. Perfection.
Posted by: Matt | May 4, 2005 3:59 PM(#51 of 91)
You know, I just watched Hope & Crosby's "The Road to Morocco" a few nights ago, which contains a scene early on in which Hope pretends to be a 'tard so as to procure free gifts from superstitious A-rabs. Jesus, I thought. You could never get away with this sort of business today.
What was I thinking? Bob Hope is Corky-level verisimilitude compared to Rosie. This caricature is ten times crueler than Hope's, and Hope was AIMING for cruelty. I am amazed, and unable to get through the last third.

How the hell did this even get made? Rosie and Andie doesn't even look good on paper. That's some goddamn PR machine those two got going. I'm sure all the live blogging was hilarious, but you still had to sit through that crapola. Your support of that, even just for people who want to watch the blogging, just means more people tuned in, and that means more of that fat dyke clogging up the retarded airwaves. So Durst!!

Wow. I'd not heard of this TV movie. So when I clicked, I kept squinting at the screen asking myself "What the f&*k happened to Rosie O' Donnel? Is this reality TV a la Anna Nicole? Wow, she's really lost it, and it's so so sad!"
Posted by: gfav611 | May 6, 2005 6:46 AM(#63 of 91)
I don't know what you people are talking about - Rosie O'Donnell gives a thoughtful, provocative, insightful and thoroughly realized portrait of an overage, overplayed and overpayed lesbian comic who has no other venue than to pay people to watch her overindulge filmed for the three people who still adore her....
Posted by: whatpickle? | May 6, 2005 9:14 AM(#64 of 91)
The clip is even funnier backwards. I hit back on my mouse and it stated to play backwards. I recommend it.

I would say welcome to Hell. But, I don't know if you could call that hell. This movie may be proof that there is no God...

"Her acting is totally different here." It just shows that anyone can act totally different in many ways but the yelling could be a little lower, like we say can you use your inside voice please. The yelling is for outside. Other than that some halarious flick. Cool Shit!

This movie was awful. I only watched about half of it on TV. Rosie O'Donell was terrible. I think she may have lost any respect I had for her as an actress.

Even if she's retarded, is she still a lesbian?
Is Andie Macdowell retarded as well?

I've acquired a copy of the movie on DVD. It's a studio copy without commercials. I'll burn a copy for anyone who wants one for $5 shipped. I'm not trying to make money, just make back what I invested in this pile of shit + the blank DVD and shipping.

I really don't know what to say. I hope this is Rosie's last acting job. I've never seen anything quite like this in my life. I saw the movie, thank god for Andy Macdowell or I would have turned the channel, maybe I kept watching the movie because I was so freaked out about Rosie, acting like the Cookie Monster from Sesame street!!! ha, ha, ha,
Posted by: Joseph | May 12, 2005 9:54 PM(#81 of 91)
wow. can we say "What's Eating Gilbert Grape?" she is not just blatantly ripping off dicaprio from his incredible performance in that movie, she is destroying every subtle nuance and genuinely well thought out characteristic that Leo created originally. the slightly bent hand, the manic energy, the loud voice. yep, it's all in her performance too...except completely abominable. what an idiot. why didn't she just disappear with her wife and her baby and go ride motorcycles across America for the rest of her hefty life???

No lie: I didn't know what this was at first ... and didn't even realize it was part of a movie. I just thought it was Rosie being Rosie.
Which maybe it is, since she's such a big fucking retard anyway.
Revolting. Positively REVOLTING. There are two ways to play a retarded person, and she's just shown us the wrong way.
Is it wrong to say I want her to die?
