This means this, this means this.
So I figured out after two screenings where we were at imperceptible, like a 0.001, I said, I got to talk to that guy.
So then I talked to that guy and then his spiel to the audience was very different.
And then we went on.
It's called stank, I think, is the expression.
Master's guys, low budget, made $40 at box office.
It was like $80 now.
$40 is good.
And also did another $60 in video in those days.
But this was Jack Gioributo, the producer, and I were trying to figure out ways to edit it and stuff.
Yeah.
and since it was a kid's movie you kind of need a fart joke here you need a fart joke in a kid movie apparently so i didn't have any but i thought what about if the bad guy whenever he's really his plan is going really well he farts now jack thought it wasn't about he goes we should he should fart and then we cut right away but i said no he farts and then we hold for like five seconds or ten seconds like
So it's like right as he's at the peak of his plan, the chair gets pulled out.
And then that goes.
So, Jack, we tried it the other way where it's like, ha, ha, ha, ha, cut.
And it didn't get a laugh.
So it is all about he's at the peak of his powers.
And then, ha, ha, ha, I told you we will dominate the world.
everybody free and you get an extra laugh cut away cut away the guy eating his soup so there is kind of uh it it is fun and you you there is that trial and error it's always amazing when you do a rough edit on a film what will get a laugh that you didn't expect like that yeah i thought that's why you need a screening yeah you just never know what an audience is going to go for tommy boy the biggest
Well, I think it's hard to beat you and Chris's chemistry and patter, you know?
