160: "I Shoulda Smoked Weed" - Rude Awakening (1989)


Welcome back to the show, man.  This week we watched a Buck Henry movie from 1989 starring Eric Roberts and Cheech Marin.  Rude Awakening is about two hippies who hide in the jungle for 20 years only to come back and find out that their friends have all sold out.  It starts off really good and then quickly becomes terrible.  Then it has a hilarious ending that made us question what exactly the movie was trying to say.  Are the hippies the good guys or the bad guys  Is Eric Roberts a narc?  Is that the fakest fake beard to exist in a film?  These questions and more on this week's episode of Saturday Night Jive.  Enjoy!

159: "Porn And Corn" - Going Ape (1981)/Twins (1988)

We pulled SNL 5-timers club member Danny DeVito out of the hat so we watched Going Ape from 1981 starring Tony Danza and a couple of monkeys.  20 minutes later, the file we were watching stopped working so we did what anybody would do.  We started watching Twins from 1988 starring DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger.  But we didn't want to waste any time so we started it 20 minutes in.  So this is a film where Tony Danza is forced to live with 3 chimpanzees and Danny DeVito.  Just as the mob is starting to get involved the movie jumps ahead 7 years and Danny is a small time hood who finds out he is the genetically inferior twin brother of a muscle bound Austrian.  It's weird.  Join in on the madness and enjoy!
