What was Tommy Chong's character names in Yellowbeard?


I know he's listed as El Nebuloso in the cast list ... but he kept changing his title in the film ... they kept getting more pompous ... what were the other names/titles? I can't seem to find much info on this film.

Thanks

They weren't really important. He was regarded as a high-ranking public figure. The joke was that instead of calling him "your highness" or "your holiness", they would call him something ridiculous like "your ass-holiness" or whatever. It was supposed to be funny. I guess it wasn't.

Thanks,

Brannon

Another one was "Your Corpulence". And I thought it was hilarious.

Don't foget "Your Blessed Rectitude"

My personal favorite was "Your cadiovascularity" I still use that to this day!

There was one that sounded like "Your Vehemence", although I could be wrong... Cheech kind of blurs it.

I always heard that as "Your Flaccid Rectitude" which is also much more in keeping with El Segundo's twisting of respectful terms into insulting ones.
