I saw this movie in the theaters with buddies from school and I died. Still laugh pretty hard at it.

Me and a friend love this movie. The explanation of "Chubby Rain" is hilarious. And my friend is super gay, and he wants to go as Christine Baranski's weird character at the end for Halloween, the asian gang leader with a German storm trooper helmet.. Only I would get it. lol

Love the movie.
Have a theory about it, hear me out...
Kit Ramsey is Tom Cruise.
1) all his action involves running ("It's an action movie! He runs away from the camera, he runs towards the camera!").
2) does his own stunts.
3) under the thumb of a self-help group that is using him to advance their own influence.

I loved this movie!
The scene where Steve Martin is trying to impress RDJ's character with the car phone pretending it's a cell phone.
"We need the best film crew we can afford!"
"This film is being made for Iran and Nigeria, neither of which recognize American copyright."

Could be a few people but yeah Pyramid Head is absolutely meant to be Scientology.

I love this movie... it's a pretty decent sendup of Hollywood ...
I do wonder if it was a bit too inside at the time as for why it didn't do particularly well.

Martin said the movie was poking fun as several movements in and around Hollywood at the time (and not Scientology specifically), but yeah, the Cruise thing I've been saying for years. It certainly explains his participation in "The Mummy"... whenever he looks confused at what people are saying, he ain't acting!

I mean of course he's going to say that... he doesn't need Scientologists to get mad at him >_>

The joke about his compulsion to flash the Laker girls hasnโt aged well.
Other than that itโs still a pretty solid film.

I saw it in theaters as well. Funny stuff. Eddie's 'nerdy brother' is just greatness.

Must have seen some promotion for it because I went because it was a Steve Martin movie.
