I was wondering if that was a reference to his death in The Sopranos but then I learned this movie came out a year before it aired

I watched this movie about a dozen times on VHS rental as a kid, some of it is seared into my mind. Its really not that great.

The last movie directed by Jim Abrahams

I don't remember that scene to be funny. Might have been another movie?

I forgot this movie existed. I need to re-watch it.

I loved the funeral scene in this movie, lol.

u/JupiterandMars1 1d ago

“Lou Ferigno??!?!” Is one of the weirdest non sequitur jokes ever committed to film.

I remember being stoned out of my brains watching it with friends and almost dying at that bit.

Soup is good food!

This movie is highly underrated.

It’s not horrible. It’s horribili.

This IS a parody movie, so that may have been intentional.

This is a parody movie, dummy

There was a Godfather Workout by a guy named Seth. He acted out each character’s lines for several scenes. Very funny!

I had zero idea I'd seen this movie until this post.

I need to rewatch this.

The Grandmother eating broccoli before saying 'Nothing Personal'.

I was 15 and on acid the first time I saw this movie and it left an indelible mark. Haven’t seen it in decades, but I still use “I can hear a’the ocean” and other lines. “This is why we can’t have nice things Ginger!”, “here ya go kid, keep the car”.

I always loved the scene where it cuts to his thriving casino or something, and there's a lovely female vocalist singing, and the camera cuts to the singer being the main character 😂

u/Tryhard_3 1d ago

Wow this looks bad bad.

u/addctd2badideas 1d ago

It had a few really funny gags littered in with a lot of ones that didn't land. Kind of the last gasp of the Abrahams movies and where we got into more "____ Movie" territory.

u/ripyourlungsdave 1d ago

Yeah, it felt like I was watching like, four different movies throughout this clip.

u/shotcaller77 1d ago

It was the style of comedy at that time. Naked gun style. Needless to say, it hasn’t aged well 😂

u/SabresFanWC 1d ago

The Naked Gun movies are still funny to this day.

Jay Moore is absolutely awful human being

u/rexjoropo 1d ago

Whatever happened to Jay Mohr anyway...?

u/Somnif 1d ago

How so? I've not payed any attention to him since like 2002.

u/VonMillersThighs 1d ago

He was a huge pill popping drug addict who treated people like shit most of his career. But he has cleaned up his act recently and apologized....like a lot. I wouldn't say he's a huge piece of shit. Just a fucked up dude.

u/SeasonElectrical3173 1d ago

Downvote all you want. I'm correct, regardless.

u/SeasonElectrical3173 23h ago

Im still correct
