Re: Vogues Controversial Cover

hands down one of the best sequences in the movie is where they flash back and the fat kid can't stop drawing penises. What sort of genius mind comes up with that?!!?!?!?!?! I love it!!!

I know! in the ending credits too, endless pictures of the drawings. penis firemen, penis trains, penis rockets, penis wizards... disturbingly hilarious.

Yes, well said ndf. reminds me of this quote from Susan Sontag that I think I read somewhere here on sz...

?The
discovery of the good taste of bad taste can be very liberating. The
man who insists on high and serious pleasures is depriving himself of
pleasure; he continually restricts what he can enjoy; in the constant
exercise of his good taste he will eventually price himself out of the
market, so to speak. Here Camp taste supervenes upon good taste as a
daring and witty hedonism. It makes the man of good taste cheerful,
where before he ran the risk of being chronically frustrated. It is
good for the digestion.?

Re: Vogues Controversial Cover



I was just thinking about who was given the job to fill an entire notebook with penis drawings. That must have taken a good bit of time... to think that this person (or persons) had to draw penis after penis... the whole time thinking about how this is what they went to college for.

That in itself is a great story hahahaha

Toilet humor is some of my favorite. My favorite comedian hands down is Dave Attell. The man is a genius.

Another hilariously underrated movie is Idiocracy. In the future, Fuddruckers becomes Buttfuckers? I mean come on!!! That's GOLD!!!!

Yea, but that becomes a question of limits, I guess. Whereas I enjoyed American Pie, I thought Superbad was just dumb.

Re: Vogues Controversial Cover

I think they're quite different, american pie was a pretty typical teenager comedy, superbad was just a big joke, in a good way imo. saw it a second time with a couple of friends who wanted to watch it, and it was still pretty funny. just ridicilous punchlines, and its better if youre drunk [86]
