ITT: young people who never saw this masterpiece of a movie.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I consider myself old, but I’m not remembering this movie. What was this from?

I was unaware that the Wachutis were biters!

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Oh right, those. I’m so old I thought those were stupid and never watched them.

[-] socsa@piefed.social 8 points 1 week ago

The important thing is that you found a way to feel superior

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

lol even younger me was a bit of a movie snob. Now I’m even worse about it.

[-] FeelzGoodMan420@eviltoast.org 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

They are stupid but Jim Carry nails the role and it's objectively funny. Definitely worth watching both of them.

[-] Mog_fanatic@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

They are among the stupidest movies ever created without a doubt. And I absolutely adore them 😄

[-] lefaucet@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago

They absolutely are stupid and it's not to late to behold the stupidity

To this day, I've never laughed harder than I did when I first saw this scene. My cheeks and abs cramped up, my back started to hurt, my lungs damn near collapsed from laughing so hard.

Thankfully, I don't think I'll ever laugh that hard for as long as I live, because I think there might be a good chance I could actually die of laughter.

Jim Carrey is the GOAT

It is wholesome. A family in the film even stops to watch the miracle of life.

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

Unfortunately, the transphobia in the prequel is less wholesome.

[-] lefaucet@slrpnk.net 3 points 1 week ago

Ah hell I'd glossed over that in my mind. Thanks for the reminder.

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 week ago

Say what you will about those stupid movies, I miss them...

Zucker, Abrahams and Zucker, Mel Brooks, the early Jim Carrey comedies, Police Academy...

[-] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 4 points 1 week ago

I just miss silly spoof movies.

I feel like those " (genre) Movie" films were such weak throwaways and the silly parody movie quietly just died shortly after. Especially when everything wanted to be an "adult comedy" or a "dramedy" (ughh!)

You don't really see that fun absurdist trope-poking humor of Kung Pow!, Airplane, Monty Python, or Austin Powers, anymore. Spy movie spoofs were such a great time. :)

A TV show called Angie Tribeca did this SO WELL. It was such a great cop show parody full of silly wordplay and puns and unbelievably ridiculous scenarios.

[-] FeelzGoodMan420@eviltoast.org 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I miss movies like Scary Movie. You'll never see anything like that ever again.

[-] GeeDubHayduke@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

"I told you not to disturb me when I'm cleaning my room!"

[-] Brown5500@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

I really loved police academy. Rewatched it recently with our late teen kids-wow, does it have some racial and queer jokes that made us all very uncomfortable. the rest is still gold though.

[-] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I'm surprised I didn't rupture my spleen when I saw that.

It was in a cinema, too, if you remember what those were.

I couldn't breathe, and I was all but a puddle on the sticky floor, laughing my adult ass off.

[-] TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Same same. One of the funniest scenes in a movie that I can recall.

[-] shalafi@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

That scene was about as hard as I've ever laughed. Must have had it on VCR because it was the 90s. Scared to revisit it because I couldn't possibly laugh that hard a second time.

[-] qyron@sopuli.xyz 7 points 1 week ago

Dumb shit but fun shit.

[-] adm@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago

I saw this scene at 11 years old and I didn't stop laughing for 15 minutes.

[-] bizzle@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I don't remember noticing how obviously fake that rhinoceros was when I was a kid

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 week ago

I do, but that may be because iirc it was fake in cannon. It's been a long time but as I recall he built the rhino as a sort of hunting blind, I don't remember why well but I think it was to observe/photo animals.

[-] Kolanaki@pawb.social 3 points 1 week ago

He was following around one of the main villain's henchmen to see what he was up to.

It was to spy on the guy who was suspected of... Doing something. It's been a while

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

He stole a white bat to halt a tribal marriage and then force a war between the tribes. Thus allowing an English company he owns to exploit the conflict to steal the guano trade for profit.

[-] SidewaysHighways@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

crt tvs may have played a part in that

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Getting kinda hot in these rhinos...

Jim Carey is an anti-vac conspiracy dickhead.

[-] 100_kg_90_de_belin@feddit.it 5 points 1 week ago

Both statements are valid

There’s nothing inherently wholesome or obscene about the cycle of death and rebirth. It simply is. 🧘

I just had the disturbing realization that someone is into this shit.

[-] M137@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

And that started with this. How many rhinoceros furries exist now because of it?

[-] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

By my Google image results, I'd say there's a few!

When the walls fell.

[-] aviationeast@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Only way you'd see that today is if impractical jokers did a movie

[-] ech@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago

It's hilarious the you're simultaneously (and incorrectly) claiming "movies these days" are too PC for this, and yet the "edgiest" comedians you can come up with are a group of middle-aged dad's doing the most pg "pranks" ever.

I can hear this happening
