RMT: Big Top Pee-Wee (35% RT)
Random Movie Thoughts
Just watched Pee-Wees Big Top(Dyslexic mistake found while proofing..keeping it) on Netflix. Loved it as a kid, thought it was up there with Big Adventure. After watching it as a adult I can say in fact its no where close to Big Adventure and its sorta creepy. The fact that Reuben wrote and produced this thing makes it even creepier. The movie was a total bust. It cost 20 million to make and only brought in 15 million.
-The first 15 mins is very classic Pee-Wee. Making the animals pancake. All the farm animals eating breakfast at the table. Riding a tractor for like 10 seconds while singing Pee-Wee had a farm.
-Creepy part 1. Lunch with Winnie! Well its going pretty funny(egg salad on the face). He then does the hair combing thing along with jumping on top of Whinne where she has to push him stating the "Children.. THE CHILDREN!". I know Pee-wee has been know to slide in adult jokes in his tv show and what not but this isn't even trying to hide anything. Its screams I JUST WANT SOME!
-Towns People are pretty funny. Loved the cheese sandwich part. I in fact started to eat them because of this movie. I'M STARVING! PLEASE!
-I enjoy Vance the Pig. Again very Pee-Wee.
-Had no idea Benicio del Toro was Duke the dog face,
-Creepy part 2. The kissing scene with Gina goes on forever, Like it turns into a softcore film it goes so long. The setting is just odd too. Goes from a farm setting to a jungle with a water fall. You know Reuben wrote this in. A make out scene that lasts 1:35 mins(yes I timed it). It feels so awkward. I bet the theater experience with it was just terrible. I mean all these parents and kids sitting through a softi. Had no reason to be in there and pretty uncalled for.
-Biffed line by Mace. They didn't even bother to try another take. "That's right Showball.. Snowball".
-Piccolapupula brothers sharing Winne? Also pretty odd. They hint at some sort of odd wife sharing thing. Gross.
-Classic Pee-Wee when he shrinks everyone into children.
-Creepy part 3 when Gina and him have sex and by have sex they show women mud wrestling and explosions. Why does Pee-Wee need to have sex in a movie about a farm that is aimed at kids??!?!?! What were they thinking??!?
-More mistakes: They slow down the film when Vance is singing during the circus show. Like they didn't get enough of a shot to fill his lines or something.
This is just an odd movie with Reubon writing in long kissing scenes to creep out parents and confuse kids. Why does Pee-Wee need to do all this grown up stuff like cheating on girl friends? Just stick to talking to pigs,growing large tomatoes and walking on tight ropes with cows. This is his worst stuff without a doubt. Stick to the playhouse and Big Adventure.
