Re: Gallagher apologetics.
[quote name="Ray of Light"][quote name="Senor Barborito"]I laugh at the Life Aquatic lovers who never saw Shakes The Clown, because you'll never convince me that Aquatic was better than Shakes in any category except production budget size. UHF was a solid, sharp, affable comedy that holds up beautifully. But nobody gives a shit. All they care about is the gag. The watermelon, the spastic voice, the song parodies. [/quote] UHF was the first movie I took a girl to; I was also pretty hot for the SNL girl who plays Al's girlfriend. I downloaded it a couple weeks ago and laughed anew. Kramer plays Stanley. I idolized Bobcat Goldthwait when I was about 12 years old. Learning to talk like him -- and doing it for months nonstop -- taught me I had a special gift for infuriating others. I never watched the Tonight Show (because Leno sucked) but I watched it the night he set the set ablaze. I thought it was brilliant (literally!). So it's with the greatest possible authority that I tell you both movies -- Shakes and Zissou -- are equally good, both as wonderful as they are incomparable to each other. That you find <i>people who like a movie</i> funny goes to show the inoperativeness of your sense of humor. You may imagine you're somehow right -- <i><b>don't!</b></i>. Just take my word on this one. Ray![/quote]
