    Watched Beetlejuice with the kids last night. Not as funny as I remember, and they weren’t laughing either.

    OTOH, we all thought The Lost Boys was still pretty cool.

    Blazing Saddles next?

      Beetlejuice was never funny, so much as it was fun and weird.

        Blazing saddles was written with the golden rule of offensive comedy: don’t punch down or up, punch in all directions.
