Who would’ve
thought that the standout adult comedy of the year would be headlined by a cute
and fluffy, yet trash talking stuffed Teddy bear? The 2012 summer blockbuster Ted is probably
one of the first adult comedies to feature a childhood-like character since the
1986 film Howard the Duck. The film is
based on the fictional story line of a boyhood granted wish good bad.
In the movie,
Wahlberg’s character wishes so hard as lonely boy that his Teddy Bear will come
to life. The fantastical result is the
crass and risqué Ted who really just won’t go away. Be careful what you wish for, right?
The 2012 summer
release was written and directed by Seth McFarlane who is known worldwide for
his success with Family Guy, as originally broadcasted on the Fox network and
several other hit adult cartoon series.
Creating the
film, which also stars A-Listers Mark Wahlberg and Mila Kunis alongside the
deceivingly adorable little ball of fluff McFarlane certainly took some risks
and pushed some boundaries, but it’s clear that it was well worth it. The jury is out and fans simply love
Ted.
