The Garbage Pail Kids Movie

[Andrew]

Oh, I completely understood that you were tweaking my nose.  I think that sometimes I have a hard time turning off Marine Andrew - something that you all have dinged me on before.

Still, it is saying something when scrubbing cheese off a plate is preferable to the "entertainment" that I am watching.

EDIT:  This is what I get for trying to type posts before the children are asleep.

It's the difference between the pain you can understand, and the pain that defies understanding.

Few points of interest (or is that uninterest) in this movie.  One is the fact I aboslutely HATED Dodger.  Whenever he was getting the snot beat out of him I was in hysterics laughing.  The kid was so whiny.  I remember at the end when he told off the girl by saying something along the lines of "you're mean". 

Secondly, a fashion show is simply an odd thing to build around a movie based on a collector card. 

Lastly, Nat Nerd wetting himself happens several times in the flick.  All of which were unfunny.

I saw this a while back...the whole fashion show angle seemed a bit weird to me, too...I did a review on my myspace blog, but it has since been deleted. One thing to look out for: this film, like pee wee's big andventure and howard the duck, had a bar scene involving a character walking on the bar itself (that was apparently a big thing in the 80's).

They did that with several gags, but the water pouring out of his suit was definitely a forlorn joke. 

Interesting point, Trevor.  And all of those people walking on the bars were "vertically challenged."

Thanks for the welcome Andrew.


and as for pain....... I DO have almost every series of the darn card collection in full........ I think the pain of viewing such an atrocity is in order.

hehehehe, i've seen some pretty BAD stuff already. I'll just brace myself for spooning my eyes out mid flick.

Due to Katie's work schedule, I end up cleaning up after dinner, giving the kids their bath, putting them to bed, etc. 

I believe that we had eaten stuffed peppers that night and, hence, the dishes involved were soaked for a bit.  The dishes are always done before I go to bed.  The dishes from tonight are all done.

Well you were a very good boy tonight...I hope you know I was teasing you. It made me laugh because my better half uses the excuse that the dishes are soaking all the time. Usually I do them, but there are times I'll wait around,  he'll go in and start filling the sink to let them soak and says he'll do them a little later. Next thing I know it's morning and there he is doing the dishes. Anyway you made my day when I read that. 

See Andrew, you do this and it makes her day, I do it and she says something like "you crack me up, it's so stupid, just do the *&*^% dishes and your finished with it, then watch the movie.

Dish washing aside, I have to say that getting the kids (kid in my case) ready for bed and getting them to sleep is one of the high points of a father's day, sometimes I miss having the little one to read to and then tuck in.

ive viewed it one time high as well and i was cracking up for the first part of it (when they came out of the can i was actually a little freaked out i was so ripped) then i started to burn out and it started to get painful, it was like novacaine wearing off after youve just got teeth pulled.

You know, I had always taken it that Paul Reubens was rather short.  The IMDB states that he is 5'10".  I stand corrected and thank you.
