As I said on the "Coming Soon" post, I am actually looking forward to watching this. You wouldn't necessarily guess just by looking at her name, but director Dennie Gordon is a woman. I may have mentioned this before, but since 2015, every year, I have participated in a challenge developed by Women in Film Los Angeles called #52FilmsByWomen, in which you pledge to watch one movie directed by a woman to average out to one a week. Obviously, that's easier for me than it is for you running the channel, but it would be nice to see some other great movies by women on the channel. Right now, with Joe Dirt, you have seven: • American Psycho (2000) dir. Mary Harron • Big (1988) dir. Penny Marshall • Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982) dir. Amy Heckerling • League of Their Own, A (1992) dir. Penny Marshall • Lost in Translation (2003) dir. Sofia Coppola • Point Break (1991) dir.

2025-01-27 21:18:04 +0000 UTCDavid Spade was great in the t.v. show "Just Shoot Me" that ran from 1997 - 2003. He does his typical David Spade character like in Tommy Boy. Great series too.

2025-01-27 19:53:38 +0000 UTCA lot of the story kept making me think of The Jerk with Steve Martin. I kind of wonder if they did not model it a bit based on that one.

2025-01-27 19:45:23 +0000 UTCI did not realize Fred Ward (RIP) was in this. I always loved him, and he stars in some of my favorite movies.

2025-01-27 19:37:22 +0000 UTCThis will be my first time seeing this movie. I always hear people quote and talk about it, so I figure this was a good time to finally watch it.

2025-01-27 15:46:48 +0000 UTCHaven’t watched this yet, but it’s good to hear about your new setup. It’s a shame that you’ve had to watch all that came before, on such a small screen. But I’m glad to know that future viewing will be much better.

2025-01-27 15:34:37 +0000 UTCif you start a David Spade streak, must do Tommy Boy with Chris Farley

2025-01-27 14:19:27 +0000 UTCThis is a very fun movie to just cut loose in front of the tv. But my favorites with him and his best friend, the late Chris Farley, are Tommy Boy and Black Sheep. The movies with him on Netflix, like The Wrong Missy and The Do-Over, are really good too. It was great as always watching Sam's reaction to this movie.

2025-01-27 09:21:55 +0000 UTCI've been watching a lot of serious stuff lately so I needed something dumb and low brow like this. And what happened to Joe's sister, who he definitely didn't bang? Did I miss a line where they mentioned where she was in the present?

2025-01-27 07:56:49 +0000 UTCBeen waiting for this one. Enjoyed the reaction. Joe Dirt is a classic. My two cents worth... Tommy Boy is very good. Black Sheep is not. Just my opinion.
