I'm Gonna Git You Sucka (Both back when the Wayans bunch were funny)
And the cult classic
Psychos In Love
best line from Kingpin- "You really knocked something loose there, tiger."
Wayans were funny once, the film they are opening this week looks destined to be the worst film ever.
Attack of the Killer Tomatoes......it insulted anyone and everyone that ever saw it, was an obscene waste of film, and offended the very art of movies.....;-)
I remember "Fantasia" being re-released about that time, but not SOTS.
Any Mel Brooks movie should be on the list.
LOL - I think an end to the current dust storm going on outside would help immensely.
'Blazing Saddles' was a much more creative and funny movie.
what about "yankee doodle dandy" ?
one of my all time favourite movies. story of George M Cohen, a true patriot. un-PC because the main character had such an extreme love for his country - AMERICA.
> I'll be 31 in 3 weeks and remember my parents taking me to the movie theater to see [SoS].
No kidding. Disney must be wary of where it's re-released. I remember as a child being thrilled by the live-animated interaction. Loved the songs too. My kids missed out on it, I'm afraid.
Naaaa. That was actually pretty PC. Remember the cruel, zombie-like mutoids under the earth? That was Ellison's view of Christians.
I just checked ebay. They've got "Song of the South" on DVD.
We bought some Disney Video tapes on e-bay and one of them had the "Zippedy Do Dah" cut from the movie in it.
Loved Fly Guy:
My b!tch better have my money/Through rain, sleet, or snow/My whore better have my money/Not half, not some, but all my cash/'Cause if she don't,/I'm gonna put my foot in her a$$.
Sheer poetry.
All of the old 50's Bible stories.
I love those movies.
Ah! Didn't realize where you were at! Thank you for the work you're doing over there.
Hello from relatively cool Minnesota!
I own THE BIRTH OF A NATION on DVD. I've also got THE BATTLESHIP POTEMKIN, a 1925 Soviet film which is pure Commie propaganda. From a historical, artistic, and entertainment standpoint, both are fantastic films.
Part of the indian skit:
The sketch:
(The front stalls of a theatre. It is a first night - a lot of people in dinner jackets etc. About three rows back there is a spare seat. A general rustle of programmes, chocolates and theatrical murmurs. Suddenly a Sioux Indian enters, clad only in loin cloth, wearing war paint and with a single strip of hair in the middle of his head and feather. He carries a bow and a quiver of arrows. He settles into the empty seat. The Man next to him shifts uneasily and looks straight ahead. The Indian looks his neighbour up and down a couple of times.)
Indian: (always speaking with full gestures) Me heap want see play. Me want play start heap soon.
(Man next to him nods.)
Man: Yes well. I think it .., begins in a minute.
Indian: Me heap big fan Cicely Courtneidge.
Man: (highly embarrassed) Yes ... she's very good.
Indian: She fine actress ... she make interpretation heap subtle ... she heap good diction and timing ... she make part really live for Indian brave.
Man: Yes ... yes ... she's marvelous...
Indian: My father - Chief Running Stag - leader of mighty Redfoot tribe - him heap keen on Michael Denison and Dulcie Gray.
Man: (unwillingly drawn in) Do you go to the theatre a lot?
Indian: When moon high over prairie ... when wolf howl over mountain, when mighty wind roar through Yellow Valley, we go Leatherhead Rep - block booking, upper circle - whole tribe get it on 3/6d each.
Man: That's very good.
Indian: Stage Manager, Stan Wilson, heap good friend Redfoot tribe. After show we go pow-wow speakum with director, Sandy Camp, in snug bar of Bell and Compasses. Him mighty fine director. Him heap famous.
Man: Oh - Idon't know him myself.
Indian: Him say Leatherhead Rep like do play with Redfoot tribe.
Man: Oh that's good...
Indian: We do 'Dial M for Murder'. Chief Running Elk - him kill buffalo with bare hands, run thousand paces when the sun is high - him play Chief Inspector Hardy - heap good fine actor.
Man: You do a lot of acting do you?
Indian: Yes. Redfoot tribe live by acting and hunting.
Man: You don't fight any more?
Indian: Yes! Redfoot make war! When Chief Yellow Snake was leader, and Mighty Eagle was in land of forefather, we fight Pawnee at Oxbow Crossing. When Pawnee steal our rehearsal copies of 'Reluctant Debutante' we kill fifty Pawnee - houses heap full every night. Heap good publicity.
Which was no doubt then blown out of the water by "Gone with the Wind" in 1939.
