I don't get the BSB hate...I thought it was pretty funny. It's the randomness of BSB that makes it funny
because, at least for me, the randomness seemed way too forced.

Like Mike Tyson in the Hangover. lol soOoOo rAnDum!!!

that's how I view it.

you're telling me that this dude's first wish in heaven is to see the BSB reunite? aside from one of their songs playing earlier in the movie, we have no idea that Jay loves them.

imo, it would have been better had his wish been something that was sooooo unlikely to happen IRL that it HAD to only happen in heaven where you get ANYTHING you want. And it should have been something that a lot of the audience would want too. I don't think anyone sits around and thinks how awesome it would be if BSB got back together.

I mean, it would have been hundreds of other things that would have been funnier and more "random"

But that is kinda the point...it's supposed to be so ridiculous and stupid. Obviously nobody would use their "wish for whatever you want in Heaven" and wish for the BSB. Again, that's the point.

You and I will never agree on that. Again, that was the whole point of Tyson...it's Mike fricking Tyson randomly popping up in the middle of a raunchy Vegas comedy. It is funny in and of itself...but some of the Tyson stuff was actually funny in its own right in the first Hangover IMO. In fact, it would've been infinitely funnier had they not showed him in the previews (I think I remember him being in the trailers).

You just seem to hate anything that is random in movies...sometimes those can be funny, even if the randomness is the only joke.
