Rude Awakening (1989)
I loved this movie...eventually
Hey, this movie was on HBO in the eighties...thats when I got it on tape. Then the years went by...and eventually I lost my cable connection somewhere around 1998...funny, but I never saw this movie on cable since. I luckily had it on tape and it "grew" on me...I just kept remembering it, and laughing.... I am so glad I had it on tape...cuz I don't think it ever came back...but it is a delight. If you like Cheech and Chong then you know you like "stupid" comedy...yup I like it...I like them....LOL
This movie is a classic in my opinion....there is stuff here under the surface that is important....check it out! The movie lays out some down home ideas of brotherhood and peace that the world needs! (my world needs them!) Love to All! Peace, bro!
Nice Dreams (1981)
I can't help it, those guys made me laugh.
Yeah I know they, (Richard Marin and Thomas Chong) have made some of the stupidest movies on the planet, but this was one of their better ones. My opinion of other movies, of theirs, is: terrible. But I like "Nice Dreams". You can judge me negatively, for liking "Nice Dreams" if you want, but comedy (in all forms) is needed on this Earth right now! If you are a highbrow, then don't read on in this comment. If you are open to enjoying stupid comedy, I will tell you that "The Jerk" by the newly awarded Steve Martin is another favorite of mine...it is a much loved favorite I can enjoy with my 20-something daughters. I would recommend some other favorites: "Space Balls" by Mel Brooks, "Little Shop of Horrors" Frank Oz's version, and Monty Python's Life of Brian".
My opinion is: if it makes you laugh, it's not a bad thing. The more a movie makes you laugh (and you find yourself quoting it when partying with other people who also love the movie) the more stars and the higher should be your vote on here. I give it an "8". (and two thumbs up, LOL)
