Sorry.  I wasn't talking about you.  Didn't mean to get your hopes up. 

Hey, Good Lookin' is actually an animated movie by Ralph Bakshi (of Fritz the cat fame).  It's something I only recently learned existed.  Then I made a point of tracking it down and watching it. 

It's kind of a slice of life movie about two sleezy guys in the 50s.  Vinny (who's basically just Travolta's character from Grease except worse) and Crazy Shapiro who gradually goes from cartoonishly wacky to psychotic and delusional. 

There's not a whole lot of plot and none of the characters are very likable but there's something interesting about it.  I can't say I enjoyed it, but it was worth a watch.

I'm curious if anybody else here has seen it and what they thought about it.

Never seen. The first thing that came to mind when reading the thread title was the George Clinton song Hey Good Lookin'

Is it October yet?

I thought of the Hank Williams song.
Supernatural?...perhaps. Baloney?...Perhaps not!" Bela Lugosi-the BLACK CAT (1934)

Lugosi-"No. Dracula-never ends."

Been years since I've seen it but I personally find it one of Ralph Bakshi's weaker films. Probably my 2nd or 3rd least favorite of his films.
