Recently I watched the ending on youtube, the first time I've seen it since the one time I saw the movie, and it's so powerful that it's still effective without the context of the rest of the movie. I felt my soul sinking. It's horrible.

He's also one of the best standup comics in the world, if that's worth anything.

Seven Chances is my go-to favorite if I had to pick one, which I couldn't. But that's the one I always think of. Perfect little movie.

Sure.

Grow a penis.

I want to kiss whoever came up with the idea of making Lorenzo Music act excited.

I always suspected the Boogedy films were Disney's probably misguided attempt to latch onto that Fred Krueger train that was rolling right along at the time.

Binky always struck me as a precursor to Krusty. They even looked a bit alike (probably from both being vaguely based on Bozo).

I think that was Here Comes Garfield… the first special, I think…?

"HEEYYYYYY KIDS!! GET YOUR LAZY BOTTOMS OUT OF BED AND DO JUMPING JACKS WITH BINKY THE CLOWN! ONE! TWO! ONE! TWO! — "

Another good Garfield in Paradise chant: The car mechanic banging on the hood of the car going "Chigga ma-mooga mooga! >snort snort< Chigga ma-mooga mooga! >snort snort<" until Chief Wolfman Jack yells at him to "raise the hood, mango-brain!"

I think the ghost ("the Cruiser" - right?) was supposed to be a takeoff on James Dean. There were some good pop culture gags in that special that I didn't totally get at the time, like the Chief who sounded like Wolfman Jack, who I've just learned was actually played by Wolfman Jack, saying that before the Cruiser…

I'll have you know Halloween is my middle name. Gar.. Halloweenfield. :-/

I love all those attempted Garfield catchphrases from the 80s. "Oh when will this mad, whirlwind existence ever stop?"

They turned "Babes and Bullets" into its own special, remember that one? Then they left it out of the 9 Lives special. There were a lot of things in 9 Lives that were in the book but not the special, and in the special but not the book. Both were INSANE regardless.

Cat-eyed God… Cat-eyed dog… That can't be just a coincidence.

Chrommme… chrommme… chrommme… Bop bop-mm bee-bop.

I'm still not 100% what the fuck Tweety is.

I always kind of took Tears for Fears for granted. I liked their music okay, but they were just ever-present background noise from the time I was six. That scene is what made me take a second look and realize they were a hell of a band.

That was my sig on IMDb for about two years.
