Episode 362: Dodgeball (2004)

Dodgeball (2004)Watch the trailer!

Every so often, a movie comes along that surpasses your expectations, especially when you're not expecting anything extraordinary in the first place. Our pairing this time around features two comedies that were so much more than anyone thought they'd be, both came out in 2004, and both share a cameo! First up, directed by Rawson Marshall Thurber in his first outing for a big-studio picture, "Dodgeball" follows small-time gym owner Peter La Fleur (Vince Vaughn) facing off against an attempt to buy his gym (and remove the competition) from GloboGym owner White Goodman (Ben Stiller). In order to raise the $50,000 needed to save Average Joe's Gym, Peter, his employees Dwight (Chris Williams) and Owen (Joel David Moore), the banker hired to facilitate the take over of the Gym, Kate Veatch (Christine Taylor), and his customers Gordon (Stephen Root), Justin (Justin Long), and Steve the Pirate (Alan Tudyk) embark on a quest to become national Dodgeball champions! Also starring Rip Torn, Missi Pyle, Jamal Duff, Gary Cole, and Jason Bateman!
