Its shelves would be chock full of movies starring Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Paul Rudd and Adam Sandler and the rules of pattern male behavior would be lifted, because the movie man child operates in a world all his own. One where Star Wars rules, hot and willing women are aplenty, pajamas are a fashion statement and fart jokes are always funny. Welcome to The Glorious Life of a Man Child, as Seen in Movies
