I keep thinking of all the very funny bits in this — some are big comedic set pieces, others are simply throwaway lines that just *work*. FRIENDSHIP meshed with my sense of humor extremely well. A frontrunner for my fictional Best Comedy Oscar!

The one where I say there should be an Oscar for FUN movies, and this year it should go to "It's What's Inside"
