            They are stupid but Jim Carry nails the role and it’s objectively funny. Definitely worth watching both of them.

      I do, but that may be because iirc it was fake in cannon. It’s been a long time but as I recall he built the rhino as a sort of hunting blind, I don’t remember why well but I think it was to observe/photo animals.

          He stole a white bat to halt a tribal marriage and then force a war between the tribes. Thus allowing an English company he owns to exploit the conflict to steal the guano trade for profit.

      I just miss silly spoof movies.

      I feel like those " (genre) Movie" films were such weak throwaways and the silly parody movie quietly just died shortly after. Especially when everything wanted to be an “adult comedy” or a “dramedy” (ughh!)

      You don’t really see that fun absurdist trope-poking humor of Kung Pow!, Airplane, Monty Python, or Austin Powers, anymore. Spy movie spoofs were such a great time. :)

      A TV show called Angie Tribeca did this SO WELL. It was such a great cop show parody full of silly wordplay and puns and unbelievably ridiculous scenarios.

    I’m surprised I didn’t rupture my spleen when I saw that.

    It was in a cinema, too, if you remember what those were.

    I couldn’t breathe, and I was all but a puddle on the sticky floor, laughing my adult ass off.

      That scene was about as hard as I’ve ever laughed. Must have had it on VCR because it was the 90s. Scared to revisit it because I couldn’t possibly laugh that hard a second time.

    To this day, I’ve never laughed harder than I did when I first saw this scene. My cheeks and abs cramped up, my back started to hurt, my lungs damn near collapsed from laughing so hard.

    Thankfully, I don’t think I’ll ever laugh that hard for as long as I live, because I think there might be a good chance I could actually die of laughter.

      It’s hilarious the you’re simultaneously (and incorrectly) claiming “movies these days” are too PC for this, and yet the “edgiest” comedians you can come up with are a group of middle-aged dad’s doing the most pg “pranks” ever.

        I don’t think they were claiming it was “too PC” so much as just movie industry trends. Like executives don’t see money in stupid-funny comedies these days maybe? I do wonder myself at the reason why.

          Just looked it up. According to several sites He came out about the belief that vaccines can cause autism (not true) back in 2015.

          Not cool, but at least it was before the COVID antivax ivermectin nonsense … I hope one day to discover his thoughts on Ivermectin, but have not the will to Google it.

          Still love what he did for the comedic world. His work through the nineties and early oughts was on the level of the greats and he continues to pursue the performance craft. I was so worried when I learned he’d be playing Robotnic… And Robotic f’n slaps! Holy crap that dance sequence in Sonic 2 had me cracking up

          I’ll pray for him tonight 🙏
