#2 Joke PCers & Feminazis would crucify ...


Robert Stack's stacked wife in bed with a horse.

I have to admit I have to question the humor-to-WTF ratio of that one.

You seem a very uptight individual

Ever tried. Ever failed. No Matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better

Surely, having run into too many PCers & Feminazis makes ME uptight. Yes, surely, I get it.

That was Captain Oveur's wife, who, apparently, is as perverted as he is.

It's a reference to a scene in The Godfather, and has nothing to do with beastiality.

made it a miss. It just doesn't work. She's a wife, not a gangster or even a he.

In a movie where almost everything worked imo, that one always jumps out as lame. The dog mauling him in the house doesn't really work either.

It works if you've ever owned a Golden Retriever (I have, may she RIP). Goldens are the nicest dogs you will ever have.

About the only scene that doesn't work for me at all is the sick child and the song, where the nun playing guitar knocks out the kid's IV.

I never had a dog so I didn't focus on it being an especially peaceful breed. Thanks

The fact that SHE isn't a GANGSTER has nothing to do with why the gag works... it just does.

reply

Wait a sec.....has nothing to do with bestiality?

Isn't the horse having a cigarette with her in bed? That's more than a Godfather reference!

reply

I have no problem with the scene, other than wondering how he would let himself
out the back door if he couldn't open it with his hooves.



I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!

Hewwo.

He'd use his teeth.

Sarah Jessica Parker never had any trouble getting out of the house.

"Pretentious" is a three-syllable word for any thought too big for little minds.
