Does anyone know the running time for this? Our bookings office didn't know and I can't find it on the net. Thanks.

The shorter the better.
Posted by Dustin Mitchell (Member # 372) on 04-16-2001, 07:34 PM:
Agreed, but that doesn't help me make the schedule now does it? 
Posted by Darryl Spicer (Member # 711) on 04-16-2001, 07:51 PM:
Running time is 88 mins. long.
Posted by Joe Redifer (Member # 3) on 04-16-2001, 08:01 PM:
It doesn't matter how you make the schedule because no one will actually show up. At least I hope not.

So true, I admit, I've laughed at him, but an hour and half? I don't know if I'll even watch the preview. I always try to, but I might stick someone else in there for this one.

forget actually ordering this print.
just take a few copies of this trailer, cut out the "daddy would you like some sausage" scene, make a loop, and run that continuously.

This movie is going to be hell on all the kids trying to get into the movie. Ive already been asked about 5 times about the poster and standee.

"Freddy Got Fingered" and Tom Green are the cover story on Entertainment Weekly this week. They ask the question, "Has Tom Green finally gone too far?"The answer is as follows:
If the movie bombs, "Yes, he's gone too far."
If the movie grosses over $100 million, "No,"
because the race will immediately be on to make something even more disgusting.

I'm not sure if he has gone too far or not, don't really care. I'm just sick of Tom Green. He was funny for the first two minutes of his fame, but he got boring really fast and now he is only annoying. He would be funny if he was more versatile. I hope he is saving his money.

I don't know guys...Every kid I know (I know quite a few) is walking around chanting "Daddy would you like some sausage"...
If it had been a PG-13 it would be a hit for sure.
As it stands, it looks like another movie marketed to an audience that won't be allowed allowed to see it.

Funny you should say that. My twelve year old brother is chanting the "sausage" line. I guess that's the target audience.

I like dumb comedies (if they make me laugh) and I'll definitely see it on opening weekend. Whether I'll be disappointed in it or not remains to be seen. I haven't had too much of a dose of Tom Green in the past. I've never watched his show, so I've only seen his appearance in movies like Road Trip and Charlie's Angels. Who knows? This movie will either make me tired of him or make me be a fan of his.------------------

James: I was at a party last night - the birthday girl was (still is) a projectionist, and the conversation turned to that trailer (which I had never heard of). Strangely enough, they talked about the fact that someone at work had already made a loop from that part of the trailer! So when I read your first post about that in this thread I totally cracked up.
When you see the trailer (which I haven't yet), does that scene scream out, 'Make a loop out of me!'? It must be a shoe-in...
Posted by John Wilson (Member # 269) on 04-20-2001, 03:37 AM:
Great...The film hasn't even been released here yet and they're making loops out of the trailer.

I took a peek in my finaces theater while he was screening it. I saw about 20 minutes, I don't want to say anything about the movie other then the part I saw involved a baby, it was discusting. I hear the beginning was even worse. It was completly vulgar...to me not the lease bit amusing.
