Well, well, well, you wanna know about movies like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, huh? I seen that one. That poor fella, gettin’ dumped by that fancy TV lady. Broke his heart clean in two, it did. Reminds me of the time my old rooster, Bartholomew, got dumped by that hen, Mildred. Never was the same after, that bird.
You see, a movie like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, it’s all about a broken heart, ain’t it? And pickin’ up the pieces. And maybe findin’ somethin’ new. Somethin’ better. Like when my Bessie, my old cow, she lost her calf, but then she found a new purpose milkin’ for the whole darn family.
So, if you liked that one, you need more movies about folks gettin’ dumped, then findin’ their feet again. Let me tell ya, there’s a whole bunch of ’em.
First one that pops into my head is somethin’ called Get Him to the Greek. Now, I ain’t seen it myself, mind you. My old eyes ain’t what they used to be. But I heard it’s got some of the same folks in it. Same fella who directed, this Nicholas fella, and another one called Judd. And that Russell Brand, he’s back as that Aldous Snow fella. But that other fella, Jonah, he’s playin’ someone new. It’s like a follow-up, but not really, ya know? Like when Mildred had another chick, not Bartholomew’s, but kinda related, in a way.
And there is another called I Love You, Man. This one, it’s about a fella needin’ a friend, ya see? Not ’bout a breakup exactly. But, it’s got that same kinda feelin’, ya know? Like, needin’ someone in your corner when times are tough. Like when my old dog, Buster, got lost in the woods, and the whole town came out to help find him. Bless their hearts.

- And Dude, Where’s My Car?
Some folks, they say there’s like 74 movies that are kinda like Forgetting Sarah Marshall. That’s a whole heap of movies! More movies than I got chickens in my coop! And I got a lot of chickens! Some folks made a list, from New Zealand, all them movies. And they are all online, ya know? On that Netflix thing, and that iTunes, and that Amazon. All them places got movies about broken hearts and such.
You lookin’ for a movie ’bout a fella gettin’ over a gal, and then findin’ a new one? Well, ain’t that just the way of the world? Like a flower wiltin’ in the sun, then a new one sproutin’ up right beside it. Happens all the time in my garden. I seen it myself a hundred times.
Now, I heard folks talkin’, these “Redditors” they call ’em, on that internet thing. They say there’s a whole bunch of movies with that same kinda… vibe, they say. Same kinda story. Like, same but different, ya know? Like my apple pies. I make ’em all with apples, but each one’s got its own little somethin’ special.
And if you loved that Forgetting Sarah Marshall, they got lists of other movies you might like. Movies and them TV shows, too. All sorts of ’em. Like when you love one kind of jam, you might wanna try all the other flavors, right?
And this other thing I heard about, it’s called Nobody Wants This. That is a movie. I don’t know it. But they got 10 movies you should watch after it. They say it’s got all kinds of love stories. The “will they, won’t they” kind, the “unlikely lovers” kind, the “just friends” kind. Lordy, it’s like a whole buffet of love stories! Just like my prize-winnin’ preserves. Got somethin’ for everyone.
So, you see, there’s a whole world of movies out there, just waitin’ to be watched. Movies about love and loss and findin’ your way again. Just like life, I reckon. Full of ups and downs, tears and laughter. And if you’re lookin’ for movies like Forgetting Sarah Marshall, well, you’re in luck. There’s plenty to choose from. And if you look around the internet like on Netflix, iTunes, or Amazon, maybe you will find some similar movies.
Just remember what this old lady told ya. Life’s too short to be sad all the time. Sometimes you gotta pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and find somethin’ new to love. Just like that poor fella in that movie. And just like my old rooster, Bartholomew. He found a new hen eventually. A little Rhode Island Red, she was. They had a whole bunch of little chicks. Life goes on, ya see. It always does.
