I'm a new Cable Guy fan. Just saw it in full last week.
I was wondering do people think Sam Sweet was guilty also during the phone call did anyone notice they guy had a lisp like Chip?
Could it be possible that Chip killed Stan? I know it's a long shot but what the hay!
Also does anyone know why Ben Stiller wouldn't work with Carrey again?
Made you look made you see now you got to drink your pee
I think it was just to show America's obsession with celebrities' lives, and has little to do with Chip himself.
And personally, I think he was found guilty.
Am I the only one who finds Pamela Vorhees oddly attractive?
Back to the original question...
Of course Sam Sweet is guilty. Just like the case that probably inspired the Sam Sweet case- especially in the 911 phone call- the perpretrators there were found guilty. The Menendez Brothers, of course.
I'm open! There's just nothing in there!
Also does anyone know why Ben Stiller wouldn't work with Carrey again?
Has he said he wouldn't work with him again? I find that odd. Carrey is a man of many great performances, and Chip Douglas is definitely in the top five (other four, imo: Truman, Andy, Joel, & the latest, from what I've heard, Steven Russell) Some years after Cable Guy, they were going to star in a film called "Used Guys" or something like that. I doubt the film fell through because Stiller said he didn't want to work with him, but I don't know.
Most definetly guilty. In the scene where they show Sam Sweet on the witness stand, they play the audio of the 911 call, look closely at Sam Sweet. A innocent person, while hearing the audio, would be crying, showing saddness and mourning. Overall, they would be a total wreck hearing the 911 call the day their loved one has died. Sam on the other hand, looked more embarassed. His movement shows that he could be thinking: "man, I think I went overboard with that call."
shareThe whole point of the cable going out and us not finding out if the dude is guilty or not, was to show that the obsession with cable tv and the obsession with stories like that are a problem. Kyle gass can't watch the tv anymore so he grabs a book. We are supposed to realize that letting *beep* consume yourself like that is unhealthy and we shouldn't get too wound up or addicted to tv.
But apparently you all still have to know if he's guilty or not... well there isn't an answer, it doesn't matter.
He seemed to be obviously guilty.

"If I've never seen it before, it's a new release to me."
He never said. I just found it odd that it's the only film I've seen them work together.
Ben usually works with the same people over and over. That's all. I thought they made a good team.

He was a celebrity. He was obviously acquitted.
shareyeah i would think he was guilty .. though in real life i don't think they knew yet about the Menendez brothers' fate.
Go Giants!

Who cares? The fact that people even discuss that aspect of the film proves its point; that we involve ourselves so deeply into other people's lives in the media, we lose out on our own lives. We forget the true joys of life, like, say, reading a book. We're not supposed to know because that's the point; we shouldn't care.
I'll fvck ya. And then I'll eat ya.

I wonder if this is the definition of Irony, the Movie illustrates the fascination we have with celebrities and here there are several posts focusing on the fictitous trial and little about the ethics of the movie's message
Hell is other People
I heard it was a... ASIAN.
