I have this DVD because when I was in middle school I was obsessed with sex and needed to see it or anything remotely sexual. This was always on and I could never watch in full, so I somehow got the double sided DVD. Watched both I & II once. I don't remember much of the plot except a group of guys want to get laid and go to porkys where they are bullied because they are out-of-towners, a girl who's date showed up with a condom already on, and the tallywacker scene. So imagine my surprise watching it umpteen years later expecting a lighthearted poorly aged sex romp only to be met with racism, a lot of it, and a visceral lack of "sex", and a jarring lack of jokes. Like wow. It's really boring. What the hell was happening in the 80's that this movie is what kind of set the standard for raunchy comedies of the 00's? Granted, I am watching this on Tubi and think some sexual content is missing, that said I'm still bored and not laughing. I will be watching two, which involves them taking on the ku klux klan for some reason. I do think I remember a bunch of hooded men in the water. Maybe I'll watch three depends on how I'm feeling after two. Will not watch "4". It was made in '09 and probably has the same energy as National Lampoon movies made well after Jim and Michelle got married at band camp and the Griswold's didn't make it to wherever the fuck they were going.
Apparently, Howard Stern was going to remake these in the aughts, he had the original director or writers blessing. Thankfully, no studio would fund them. I would have no problem with this as long as Stern wasn't behind them and the girls got in on the hijinks, instead of just being objects. They would of course have to be reworked because most 80's raunchy comedies are just sex crimes masquerading as hijinks. In the right hands it could be done.
Rambling Thoughts.
Mostly just me wondering about Anthony Tuperello, affectionately known as Meat.
SPOILERS.
I used to think penis measuring would be a bigger part of my life growing up. Like quicksand and dance battles.
Shrinking? How small is PeeWee?
Not the n-word hard R multiple times and then him being corrected and still using it. This white boy can suck my asshole.
Baby doll. You can't infer why a man that big and hot would be called MEAT. To be that young and naive. Was Anthony just gonna take this girl out back and whip out his huge schlong? (Story 💡 )
Princeton!? Meat is the smart one?!?! Innovative for a movie like this.
This is the definition of white people saying, "I can be friends with people who have different political beliefs."
Balbricker should've beat that boys ass. He looks about thirty it's not illegal.
Meat isn't the hot one? Tommy is? Anthony is the one man who makes a unibrow work.
Why are they friends with PeeWee? He's so obnoxious and desperate. Definition of LDE.
I swear I remember Wendy crying about or at least being sad about a guy showing up to a date wearing a condom. I always thought that was really smart for a movie like this to include that. Maybe it was in the second one?
This friend group is 10 people deep. God lord that's too many characters for a movie like this especially because most of them never matter past the prank. They were all happily prepared to run a train. Man the bond of brothers is something I'll never understand.
It's misogynistic, but not as much as I thought it would be. The two main girls they interact with, Wendy and Candy(one scene), have more agency than you'd expect (not much). They both take part in the razzing and jokes. Candy goes down the line and makes fun of each of their penis'. Including Meat. Kim Cattrall's character is known for having sexual relations with the fellow teachers but the coach she's dating doesn't judge her for it. Wendy sleeps around as much as some of the guys and it's not shamed by the guys in her friend group. The bar is in hell but, but it's a movie made in 80's.
Frankie's cute with a hook in it. Okay. Replace both racist ones with him.
Meat is a virgin? Maybe not, but definitely not super experienced.
This prank could be funny but it's taking too long to get to the joke.
Nothing seems worse to me than a backwoods swamp white strip club in the 50's. Sad titties, tetanus, and racism. Yikes.
They drive 70 miles out of town to get laid? Isn't PeeWee the only one of them that's a virgin? If he were a girl this would be a make over movie. He's so unlikable. They should be doing whatever it takes to change his personality.
Porky may be a racist POS but at least he's not letting underage teenagers drink or have sexual relations with his employees. He's in the right.
Kite. It amazes me how even stupid people waste what little brain cells they have on things that don't do them any good.
Not them defending being friends with a racist, to the victim of his bigotry. Not them trying to make Brian feel bad because his racist bully has a shitty father.
Meat doesn't drink? They really said we're gonna change the narrative on the big, well endowed friend. Doesn't drink, not very sexually versed, very smart, not an ass. Hung.
Scholarships to 60 other colleges! Who the fuck is Meat when he's not around his loser friends?
This whole chili thing is gross.
They really gave Balbricker a fat girls name. No offense to Beulah's but. . .
Miss Honeywell saying that she doesn't put out and immediately doing so at the smell of used jockstraps and gym socks is very 'tree falls in a forest' of her. I appreciate it. Soon as it's over and the smell is out of the air, it never happened she's a good Christian girl. She gets her nut and if she can't remember it did she sin. No.
In the one sex scene in the movie the dirty jockie's and socks is doing a lot of the heavy lifting.
The Lassie thing could work but it takes too long to get to the joke and then it goes on forever. And she only sounds like a dog for two seconds the rest is a series of weird screams.
A watermelon and two jelly donuts? The funniest thing said in this whole movie is the response to that. "I'm not taking a shower with him."
Okay but, Tommy's hot. . . I think.
The poor actress who plays the showering fat girl. They owe her extra.
And she's very pretty.
Again! Balbricker wanting to do a penis lineup is funny but the joke is taking too long. This is the one time the overtly long joke works. Watching the two senior players try not to break is worth it. Still too long.
Mickey took his ass out to Porky's two more times just to get his ass beat again and again. What a loser.
Not this movie trying to redeem the racist boy.
Mickey got what he deserved. He deserved more.
This ending is meh. Why did the whole school need to come out in defense of a group of underage teenage boys illegally entering a night/strip club and brothel? Porky is in the right.
Wendy should've ripped PeeWee's dick off and fed it to the gators. That desperate little cretin.
Yeah, the Tubi version is missing some stuff. I remember more titties and definitely seeing Tommy's dick coming out of the hole. Or maybe I'm confusing it with the parody from The Man Show, in which the dick is pulled and then tied to the hitch of a truck.
I hate that Wendy and Tommy aren't a couple they have so much chemistry.
ABC late-night host Jimmy Kimmel jokingly suggested that a "compromise" to the battle of Brett Kavanaugh's Supreme Court nomination is to chop off the judge's "pesky penis," should he be confirmed.
Jimmy Kimmel is a moronic asshole who did/promoted much worse behavior on his “Man Show” to make money, but is now trying to wash his hypocritical past clean.
Kimmel and Carolla proudly proclaim, "just as these heroic men did 60 years ago, we are building a dam: a dam to hold back the title wave of feminization that is taking over this country; a dam to stop the estrogen that is drowning us in political correctness. A dam to urinate off of when we’re really drunk. We call this dam: The Man Show."
This epic opening is followed by aggressive agitprop against women of all kind, including Oprah ("she needs to do a little less brainwashing and a little more sock washing") and Ally McBeal ("more like Ally McBullshit!") as well as proclamations about what men actually want to see on TV ("girls jumping on trampolines, monkeys, and midgets")
The Juggy Talent Show
On The Man Show, women are purely ornamental. (Fun fact: this show aired while Roosh V was still in college.) Nothing encapsulates the show’s view of women more blatantly than The Juggies, a group of bikini-clad babes who do the hosts’ bidding.
In this segment, the hosts decide to throw a talent show, which, of course, doesn’t even feign interest in the contestants’ personalities. Most of the talents involve women putting things in their mouths and contorting their bodies in ways that evoke complicated sex positions. After one Juggy showcases that she can "eat an entire banana in one bite," Kimmel leans over and whispers something into Carolla’s ear, who responds out loud, "That’s right, it could be a penis!"
Wife School
Like many segments on The Man Show, this one imagines its protagonists engaged in a heroic battle against a particularly nefarious foe: feminists. Viewers are encouraged to see themselves as members of a resistance movement, rising up against the increasing domination of liberated females. As Johnson writes, "Many jokes, skits, and entire episodes draw on [the] assumption that women exercise dominance over men in interpersonal relationships by controlling food, alcohol, and sex."
Here, unruly wives are trained to better serve their beer-bellied husbands through something called "Wife School," which includes classes like "Who cares what Oprah says?" and "Infidelity: He Can, You Can’t." The montage is so bereft of nuance that it’s actually painful, following the transformation of wives from scolding nags to docile hausfraus who live to give foot massages. It’s hard to see how this joke is aimed at anyone but women.
Guess What’s In My Pants
In this bit, women grope Jimmy Kimmel on Sunset Boulevard, scrounging around his pants to try to guess what’s inside. I love a bulge as much as the next gay guy but some of the things Kimmel sticks down his pants—like pastrami—are downright unsanitary and shouldn’t be fondled by anyone. "Maybe it would be easier if you put your mouth on it," Kimmel tells one woman. Lovely.
