Blues Bar Ceen.


Hello Folks:

This movie is a timeless, favorite classic with me. I can definitely identify with Gary and Wyatt really well. I enjoyed the Blues Bar scene, where Gary was getting drunk and talking all of that nonsense. However, it struck when that guy in the bar asked, "What is a beautiful woman like you doing with a malacca (or however you spell it) guy like him?" What I want to know is, what is a malacca guy? If someone can give me a good definition, then I would greatly appreciate it very much. Thank you.

It looks like someone just sent in the second one, "malaca", as a guess, using Weird Science as the source and context. That essentially nullifies it as a definition, IMO.

Finally! Someone has answered my question at last! Thank you for clarifying that for me, virgiltx. Now I don't feel too much like a loser anymore for not knowing what that meant.

Funniest scene of the movie! Could Hollywood make a movie these days with a skinny white guy talking black? I doubt it.

From the AV Club's Random Roles interview with John Kapelos (http://www.avclub.com/article/john-kapelos-john-hughes-jackie-gleason-and-his-ex-216916). Straight from the horse's mouth:


AVC: To wrap up the John Hughes portion of our conversation, your scene in Weird Science is definitely one of the more iconic ones.

JK: [Laughs.] "What's a pretty woman like you doing with a malaka like this?" Well, I gotta say, I pissed off Greeks, particularly in my family, for years to come, because I popularized the word "malaka," which hitherto had not been known outside of the community. It's basically "jack off," you know? Masturbator. So I remember my mother was not pleased at the time. She was, like, "Oh, John, couldn't you have used a better word?" There's no better word, Mom!

And wasn't that the janitor from Breakfast Club?
