Cinco DeNio 5290 Posted September 5, 2017 I haven't seen this one! Went ahead and bought the stream on Amazon as I'm sure I'll want to watch it more than once. 4 Share this post Link to post
Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted September 5, 2017 I remember when I watched Citizen Cane for the first time it seeming all oddly familiar. It took me awhile before I realized that 70% of the movie had been done on The Simpsons at some point. Get ready for 'The Jazz Singer' then - that's directly parodied in the episode 'Like Father, Like Clown', where Krusty longs to be a clown but his father, Rabbi Krustovsky, refuses to acknowledge him. 7 Share this post Link to post

Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted September 5, 2017  All this time, I thought it was based on Yentl. Nope. I was reading the synopsis of 'The Jazz Singer' and I had one of those moments CamB mentions above about the 'Citizen Kane' realizations that everything you've thought was original was just a parody... This quote in particular:  Back at the family home Jack left long ago, the elder Rabinowitz instructs a young student in the traditional cantorial art. Jack appears and tries to explain his point of view, and his love of modern music, but the appalled cantor banishes him: "I never want to see you again — you jazz singer!" As he leaves, Jack makes a prediction: "I came home with a heart full of love, but you don't want to understand. Some day you'll understand, the same as Mama does."  Reading that, I was like, HOLY SHIT, that's that Krusty episode. Never had any clue. 6 Share this post Link to post
Cakebug Tranch 6873 Posted September 5, 2017 Don't forget https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyWVaZsUQjc 'Be Our Guest' is (horribly) covered and remixed in 'Descendants', the Disney Channel movie that is proof that my children hate me and want me to be unhappy. But every time they watch it and I get 'Be Our Guest' in my head, I always sing it as 'See My Vest'. That's some solace. 6 Share this post Link to post

The_Triple_Lindy 2482 Posted September 5, 2017 First, thanks for the invite, CakeBug! Â Second, I've never seen this movie, and I don't generally dig on musicals, but I got love for Dolly, and she's pretty smoking hot in that movie poster. Â Third, has anyone ever seen the episode of The Venture Bros where Dr. Venture thinks that Whorehouse is a porn? 6 Share this post Link to post
taylor anne photo 11311 Posted September 5, 2017 I just watched this because Amy Nichols pitted it against 9 to 5 on The Canon. I am so down with rewatching it. Please tell me 9 to 5 won because there's literally nothing that compares to that trio together! 6 Share this post Link to post

But everyone will be happy to know that I even parodied this parody to make it about my cat. 8 Share this post Link to post
