Top Secret!: You're All Insane

[Nathan]

It is mostly cringeworthy but there are still some bits that get me smilin'. Some of the gags seem a bit forced.

[Matt]

Also: I got about 15 minutes into 'Amazon Women on the Moon' last night. I turned it off so as not to ruin my positive memories of it...it has not aged well.

[Ari]

I need to watch Kentucky Fried Movie again to see how that holds up. KFM was (key word is was, I haven't watched any of these in quite a while) > Naked Gun > Airplane! > Top Secret.

In fact, I watched Top Secret for my first time last year, and while I enjoyed parts of it, it was nowhere near as great as the other 3 films I mentioned.

[Matt]

KFM is still pretty funny. I watched it a year or so ago, and most of it still holds up pretty well. 'Fistful of Yen' and 'Catholic High School Girls in Trouble' are still nearly perfect sequences.

BIG JIM SLADE!!!!

Also, the most daring man in the world or whatever that skit was called floored me when I was a kid.

[Matt]

Your popcorn has been pissed on...film at 11.

[Ed Hocken]

Samuel L. Bronkowitz presents!

Also the United Appeal for the Death

"As you know, death remains the number one killer in America."

[Matt]

Christ...did a cow shit in here?

[Ed Hocken]

THAT'S ARMAGEDDON!

With Donald Sutherland as the clumsy waiter.

[Matt]

and all of that humor is totally absent from 'Top Secret!'. I honestly don't understand how that's possible.

[Ed Hocken]

So you're saying that Top Secret should have had tits? Or Big Jim Slade?

[Ari]

Ed, everything should have tits and BJS.

[Ed Hocken]

You're right Ari. Although I don't know if that could apply to Schindler's list.

[Matt]

TS DID have a quick bit of tits in it...it's on the calendar that Dr. Flomand looks at while in the prison. Tits didn't save the film, sorry.

[Ed Hocken]

I still love the joke of Nick making hash marks on the wall.

"Wow, I've been here for....twenty-five minutes."
