Open wide!

One of my favourite movies of all time. I love the spoof type movies this was up there. Probably not as good as say Mel Brooks but hard to beat his movies and always enjoyed Wierd Al.

Haha I think of that look more often than is probably needed, like an elementary school kid mocking someone. Which for the movie was great and at the time fit well for that time. Nowadays who'd ever to think of doing similar on tv? Except maybe someone without shame.

I don't know Emo Philips at all but him just willing to do that bit and the good Christian joke flood bit that I've read and made me think he was cool. Like what God cares if we do one tiny bit differently? Mean maybe murder but that's not up for debate...well a few examples stick out unless he's a real hardass about it. Hah I'd love to defend that line if there were a pearly gates.
