Wedding Crashers introduced us to the memorable duo of John and Jeremy through the journey of party crashing playboys to men who find their true loves. However, before seeing Wedding Crashers, we were not even familiar with the concept of wedding crashing in our adolescent lives. As we each stumbled upon this movie for the first time in our mid-teens, we were introduced to a different brand of comedy that would come to influence the next decade of the genre. While everyone gets a happy (and rather cliche) end when this story finally wraps, the laughs and the character arcs make this film worth the time, even to this day. Buy Zach’s newest book, Something Strange at Grandma’s House: https://www.steellakestudio.com/booksSign up for our E-MAIL LIST: https://www.steellakestudio.com/emailTIMESTAMPS0:00 Welcome1:00 The Baby Whisperer13:00 The Common Ground of Board Games and Podcasts23:00 A Quick Discussion on Learning28:50 What are We Reading39:20 2005 State of the World54:33 Wedding Crashers Summary and Stats1:02:50 Zach’s Initial Impact1:06:00 Adoration for Characters with Bombastic Struggles1:10:00 Cody’s Initial Impact [Awkward Watching with Dad]1:16:00 The Film’s Potentially Questionable Theme1:23:00 Surprisingly Good Character Arcs1:37:00 The Influence on Comedy Films1:44:00 Why we don’t like Bridesmaids but love Wedding Crashers and the Hangover1:55:00 The Lasting AppealThank you so much for checking out Parallel Quest.
