We got stacks of quality comedy over here that doesn't get a chance because of middle- class sell out crap like Horne & Corden. Horne is probably about the most wooden comedian you'll ever see and Corden is about as smug as one man can get.
That's kinda shocking to me... Horne was so awful. That he was barely in the movie made me think that the Producers reconsidered their casting decision and most of his part ended up on the cutting room floor... I found it bizarre how the movie focused mostly on the Fatman; it's Horne that should be our hero. I figured that they edited him out because he sucked. Turns out they're a comedy duo? Wow. Lame.

Do they feel as much of a Simon Pegg/Nick Frost ripoff on television? Or do that just seem that way in context because of the whole horror comedy thing?
