It's an R rated movie?
The is a bit off tanget from your remark, but the other day I watched
Better Off Dead (before Cusack became a loon) and didn't remember it as well as I thought, but probably haven't seen it since about the time in came out.
It certainly had all the 80s stuff, bad synthesizer music and bawdy humor but given the movie is about him trying to off himself several times and every stereotype of creeps, and ditzes and stuff I kept thinking how the liberals and some conservatives today would lose their **** over that movie now. Think it was only PG at the time.
It really wasn't as funny as I remembered, but the "I want my two dollars" still makes me laugh.
Sixteen Candles is still my favorite teen movie of the 80s. I was about 17 when it came out but it still holds up today even though people like the star of the movie, Molly Ringwald even complain about it.
It was a different time! Get over yourselves.
Humor is so PC today in many cases it's just silly. Most Liberals and Conservatives used to be able to laugh about it and the ones who couldn't wouldn't see something like that anyway
Can't imagine what Porky's would do to GenZ now. They're offended by
Seinfeld and
Friends.
