Get him to the greek1/10/2024 Dull Surprise: Elisabeth Moss, most of the time.Subverted though, as he only injures himself. Driven to Suicide: Aldous, after coming to terms with how much of a bitch his ex-wife is, how screwed up his parents are, and how much crap he put Aaron through.Feelgood: Keep Aldous juiced up long enough to make his concert? Sergio would be delighted! It's in character for the totally emotionally numb Aldous, but the movie itself seems to care about as much as he does. It's especially bad in that afterwards, he staggers back to Aldous Snow, clearly traumatised and terrified, stammers out "I think I've just been raped", and Aldous gives him a Jeffery and tells him he'll be fine in a minute. After he protests vocally against sexual entanglements of sorts with the woman, she ignores it and does so anyway. Double Standard Rape: Female on Male: At one point, Aaron is at a party and goes into a room with a woman.Also, the end of Jackie Q's horrifically choreographed music video "Ring 'Round": "I'm talking about my asshole.".Don't Explain the Joke: Many of the ad-libs and funny lines are outright stating the peculiarities of a scene or sequence of dialogue.That's for other people to say if they think I'm like Jesus." "Obviously, I'm not saying I'm an African white space Christ.Think of it as having sex with your girlfriend while someone else also has sex with your girlfriend". Department of Redundancy Department: "Across the mystic desert, is a desert that is mystic.".Toss in scenes of anal rape and characters being Driven to Suicide and a violent stabbing and-well, it's funny, but seriously. Darker and Edgier: They take the weirdo goofy British Rock Star from Forgetting Sarah Marshall and lovingly detail his horrific drug addiction and depressing personal life.Crystal Dragon Jesus: The "African white space Christ" Aldous Snow wanted to look like for the "African Child" video.Jackie Q refers to them being on-and-off over a period of several years, so it was probably during one of their "off" periods.Sarah Marshall was upset he wasn't monogamous with her in the previous movie, so one assumes he wasn't with Jackie then. Aldous is 7 years sober in that movie, but this movie implies said sobriety only lasted while he was with Jackie Q. Continuity Snarl: It's a little unclear when this movie takes place relative to Forgetting Sarah Marshall.Like Crime Scene in the previous film, it is shown to have hilariously bad acting. The DVD features a full advertisement for the show Blind Medicine which Sarah stars in.Continuity Nod: The cameo by Sarah Marshall: "Yeah I used to banghave sex with her.". The Casanova: Aldous Snow is the character type personified, until it's revealed he's actually Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places.Also Sergio is very similar to Sean Combs, though this is more of an Adam Westing.Less so with his mum, though Aldous's relationship with her is very similar to Brand's relationship with his own mum. Aldous's father especially, as Brand's own father was more of a buddy to him and not a father. Even Aldous's parents seem to be Captain Ersatz's of Brand's parents. Even though the former is a musician and Brand is a comedian.
