Plot
A young man (Seann William Scott) with a successful career as a motivational speaker is mortified to learn that his mother (Susan Sarandon) is about to wed his arch-nemesis:  Mr. Woodcock (gasp!), his dreaded junior high-school gym teacher (Thornton), who has made high school a living hell for generations of students. He has to stop her!

What Billy Bob Gets To Do

He'll likely sport yet another interesting buzz cut, pour on the charm to the future Mrs. Woodcock, and continue to terrorize his future stepson.  We wonder if he can do those complex jumping jacks that take the legs out of sync with the arms.  We never could do those!

Backstory
Billy Bob tells us this is the funniest script he has read since BAD SANTA, noting that "I laughed at every page!" Newcomers Michael Carnes and Josh Gilbert have written the script.  First-time director Craig Gillespie is an actor.  Film was shot in Santa Paula, and Billy Bob broke his foot in two places which shooting a wrestling scene with Seann William Scott.
