I'll pick it up but that cover is awful.

mja345 · 05-16-2017, 10:17 PM

Nice. This film is very funny.

octagon · 05-16-2017, 10:21 PM

Now this is a pleasant surprise.

A movie I often saw on the video rental shelves, but never actually watched. I'll probably blind buy it.

Same here. The cover always caught my attention because of Julie Brown's... Well! Enough reminiscing!

Because of her earrings right?

A few days ago, Julie confirmed that they are "real and spectacular!"

Never heard of it. Looked up the trailer and it looks kind of interesting.

Kind of a "Death to Smoochy" vibe. If you like films about drunk degenerates who do jobs that involve performing for children, pick it up. It's Mill Creek, so it will be super cheap.

Im a fan of Death to Smoochy, and yeah I'll most likely blind buy this one since it'll be pretty cheap. Looks like it comes with a slipcover too.

F*ck yeah, I love this flick. Bobcat and Julie are hilarious.

BrentLW · 05-16-2017, 11:45 PM

I mentioned that they had put up the trailer in the Mill Creek Sony thread and that I was hoping it would be a Blu-ray release. Glad to see it's official.

An interesting little quirky comedy. Adam Sandler has one of his first film roles in this plus a cool cameo from a comedy legend (credited as Marty Fromage). I still laugh at the "Smooth, brown and easy to spread" line.

demonknight · 05-17-2017, 12:02 AM

Saw this at a screening last year with Bobcat giving a Q&A afterwards. Really funny flick. Not my favorite from him (that honor goes to God Bless America), but the three movies I have seen of him as a director have not disappointed.

NormanBatesStuffedBird · 05-17-2017, 05:25 AM

wow. shocked but happy this is coming out.

moreotter · 05-17-2017, 05:27 AM

Awesome comedy, and if you're a comedy nerd it has a ton of cameos from big names in early roles. Too bad Mill Creek will probably do a bare bones, though.

Did the DVD have any special features to speak of?

When this was released on dvd I was thrilled, as I never expected it to be available on any home video format besides VHS. But to get released on blu-ray--I'm surprised. I hope it's at least a moderate upgrade over the dvd.
