Get my pies
outta the oven!

This was on the other night late and I ended up watching it twice, it just hit 20 years this year.

One of my favs from the past 20 years for sure, I'm glad they didn't try and ruin it with a sequel 10 years later.

Anyone else a fan?

The funniest thing for me is that overall -- it isn't far from the truth. I say that as someone that has lived their life in the general vicinity of that part of the world.

My daughter(11) wanted to watch this again a couple days ago. She has seen it several times and we both love it.

Grab my arm.
Other arm.
MY other arm.
Now, I'm gonna break the wrist...and walk away.

Yuppers…

Nothing like a delicious bass that’s been sitting in a locker all day wrapped in tinfoil.

Vote for Summer!

We were in Preston, Idaho where most of the filming took place this summer (one of my best friend's uncle was the actual principal at the high school). Anyway, they were having a 20th year celebration with actors from the movie. It was fun to drive down a small town USA main street and watch everything.

We love it here. Still quote the movie to this day.

A few years ago there was a show going around where they screened the film and the actors of Napolean, Pedro, and Uncle Rico did a Q&A afterwards. Jon Heder (Napolean) hated Tina the llama.

Why don’t you go outside and FEED TINA!

Love it to this day. My favorite scene is Napoleon at his little school. Nurse asks him what is wrong, because he is asking to use the phone to call Kip. He says “I don’t feel very good” and has this bitch face when he says it. I ROFL every time.



What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone

That has to be one of the funniest lines from the movie. I'm still laughing.

The scene where Napoleon draws that girl and sends it to her and then tells her:

“It took me like three hours to finish the shading on your upper lip. It's probably the best drawing I've ever done.”

Always cracks me and my wife up because it’s like the most ridiculous thing you’d ever tell a girl.

I'm a big fan of B movies. I made my wife and step kids watch this and Nacho Libre with me. I'm not sure they forgave me yet for it...

^^^ Ha! My DVD copy came w/ a luchador mask. Somewhere, out there, there's a pic of me in tights and cape wearing it.
Not to mentions some mentally scarred trick-o-treaters.

Oh but they did! They made a cartoon and it was ok.
