"genius nut-ball Kristen Wiig"?!?!
wow, could not disagree more with this characterization. This women brings every SNL skit in which she appears to a grinding halt, and was distractingly bad in her small role in Knocked Up. She may be the least funny human ever to walk the earth. I've laughed more actually shopping at Target than at her insufferably annoying Target checkout character on the venerable sketch show. When she appears on the usually-reliable Weekend Update segment to review movies as some Midwestern character that tries to elicit punch lines from nothing more than eye-rolls and a middle american accident, i temporarily set aside my lifelong atheism and fervantly thank G-d for the fast forward button on my Tivo. President of her fan club, I am not.
I love John C. Reilly and am smitten with The Office's Jenna Fischer, but if Kristen Wiig is in this movie for more than a single frame, I wouldn't set foot on the same block as any theater showing it.

Marshall Crenshaw
You didn't mention that he also wrote some of the music for this movie. He's been criminally overlooked for way too long!

John C. Reilly's greatest role is
Dr. Steve Brule on Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job! [exclamation point in original title]

Let the in-jokes begin!
The joke about the sense of smell is a twist on the plot of "Tommy," in which the deaf/blind hero uses his sense of smell to become a pinball champion.
Your turn, people - are there any "Spinal Tap" references here?

Um...
Couple of spoilers there, Steph?

Terry Gross already spoiled the dick joke
She and John C. Reilly went on about it for like five minutes.

I have an opinion
Here it is.
