I’ll admit it. I’ve never seen an episode of the classic Three Stooges, and I could never figure out who did watch it. What exactly is it about that silly slapstick humor that people find appealing? Especially full-grown men??
Well, now I have my own little man, and I’m starting to “get” it. Kyle is almost 8, and though my husband isn’t a Stooges fan, physical humor definitely cracks him up. I think the answer to “Why?” is because little boys become big boys, our husbands and friends and fathers.
When I saw the previews for The Three Stooges, I knew that Kyle would enjoy it. He’s going to see a preview with me tomorrow night. Today I want to offer you up a chance to win a great giveaway, but stay tuned this week for more coverage, including my thoughts on the movie and an interview with Chris Diamantopoulos who plays Moe.
From the movie studio:
This spring, “3†+ “Stooges†= the spring’s funniest family movie event: THE THREE STOOGES. Left on a nun’s doorstep, Larry, Curly and Moe grow up finger-poking, nyuk-nyuking and woo-woo-wooing their way to uncharted levels of knuckleheaded misadventure. Out to save their childhood home, only The Three Stooges could stumble their way onto fame, fortune – and starring roles in a phenomenally successful TV reality show.
Visit the official website to play games and Get Stooged!
The film stars Sean Hayes, Will Sasso, Chris Diamantopoulos, Jane Lynch, Jennifer Hudson, Sofia Vergara, Craig Bierko, Stephen Collins, and Larry David and is directed by Peter Farrelly & Bobby Farrelly and is rated PG.

I have great memories of watching the Stooges with my immigrant parents. They were great to watch because we all understood what was going on and laughing is a universal language! My husband was also a huge Stooges fan growing up watching episodes back to back on the days it would run non-stop (Stooge-a-palooza).

My husband is HUGE 3 Stooges fan.
I am really curious about this movie, it looks funny!
i find it outrageously anti-semitic because the Stooges were quintessential yiddish speaking Jews not Catholics. who wrote the screenplay Mel Gibson? Is it possible the Farrelley didn’t notice the Yiddishisns and Jewish/WASP kulturkamph of the real Stooges?
I grew up with watching the three stooges, love them.
I think this movie will be funny
I can’t say I was a big fan of the original show but I do love Sean Hayes so I’m sure I’ll see this at some point. Thanks!
My son thinks the preview for this is hysterical! Thanks for the chance.
Thanks for the chance to win!

I love the original Three Stooges i can’t wait to see the new one .
I never liked the originals, but the casting looks so great for this one, it looks funny!
My brothers & I use to watch the stooges all the time when we were kids.
I think my 8 year old would love this too! Thanks for the giveaway!
I remember watching The three Stooges with my uncle as a child. It took a long time for a movie. Thanks for the chance to win.
Like yourself, I never got it, but I know my husband and son loves them!
We use ti watch the three of those crazy nuts all the time.
“Just Say Moe”…SO cute! I think one has to be “in the mood” for slapstick; either that or it’s an acquired taste because sometimes I’d find them extremely funny while other times, not so much. Depending upon rating, I think I’ll take my godchildren to see it; the boys will get a lot of new material, I’m sure.
I remember watching the show when I was younger and can’t wait to see it in theaters. Thanks.
