Originally Posted By wonderingalice *LOL* DAR and TomSawyer! Yeah, DAR... But that's pretty much expected because it's SO foul (and my VERY favorite gangster film! They cut the stupidest stuff in Animal House, though - especially considering that the movie is nearly 30 years old now. A lot of the cuts are for strictly PC purposes.

Originally Posted By Fe Maiden I agree, but any time I catch it on TV, there I am totally engrossed. F-Bombs or not.

When I see movies on TNT, it is usually during the day on Saturday and Sunday.

Originally Posted By jasmine7 Heh, when our local CBS station aired Blazing Saddles back in the 80's, they replaced the "natural sounds" of the bean scene with the sounds of horses whinnying. I remember watching that with my dad when I was a kid and wondering why people found it so funny. I didn't realize why it was so funny until I was an adult and bought Blazing Saddles on DVD, lol.
