thoughts on man with 2 brains

[U.S.Hottie]

what are the readers virdicts.. on the steve martin film
MAN WITH TWO BRAINS... best part for me was when
steve started doing his dance routine , waving his arms about...singing a song.......any one know what the song was called....

 

[Say it like it is]

'' why am i such a crap unfunny actor? ''



sorry, i can't stand this guy

 

[J. Cullen]

Is that the film where you need no brain to watch it?

 

[Trevor Lash]

Hilarious film. IMO Martin's best to date. The best part for me is when he mows down his future wife and he has the conversation with the little girl.

 

[auggie]

you either like him or you dont......
this is the only one i like him in...
plus little shop of horrors of course....

 

[Straight in a Gay way]

I'm in the 'not like' camp I'm afraid. Slapstick type humour like Martins just does nothing for me

 

[ajtn66]

ah, back in the days when he was funny.

'the jerk'
'the man with two brains'
and my fave
'dead men don't wear plaid"

Steve Martin? I can't actually see why people pay money to watch his films as they are usually awful

 

[Daniel O]

I like it, mainly for Kathleen Turner, but it's an amusing film, a 'no brainer'

 

[Margo Lane]

The man with two brains is hilarious one of steve martins best films

His other films that are great are

Planes trains and automobiles
Dirty rotten scoundrels
Ther jerk

Song wa wrote by Steve apparently and went something like this...

"If you like-a me, like I like-a you, and we like-a both the same, I like-a say, this very day, I like-a say your name..."

But another funny moment, is when Dolores is in the hospital and he reaRAB from a book of poems ...

"Oh pointy birRAB are pointy pointy, I nod my head and nointy nointy".

This also featured briefly in another of his films where he was stood outside a window, possibly LA Story.

 

[JayJay Justice]

yeah thats LA story.

early steve martin films are genius - the best being man with two brains.

'into the mud, scum queen'

 

[mer321]

They're not called assholes, darling, they're called Azaleas.

 

[Dave W]

that is the song i remember. still can hear it now.
and that cardboard flat. with poly walls . that looked like a fortress door... what a laugh....

 

[shadi05]

haha thats the best line

 

[Nouvelle Lune]

The Man With Two Brains is one of my favourite Steve Martin film along with Little Shop Of Horrors, Planes Trains and Automobiles and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels!
Its just a pity that you cant get The Man With Two Brains on DVD!

 

[`A k i n å]

not easy to get it on vhs either......
might get lucky at a carbooty
then it may be a crap picture

Nobody here likes Bowfinger then ?

Favourite bit on The Man With Two Brains?

When Dr Hfurggghhhghghhghgh (or however you spell it) is looking for the perfect body (to cater for Ann Elmarmahey's brain), he comes across a prostitute wearing nothing but a coat.

Dr H, "When do I get to see the rest of it?"
The prostitute opens her coat to reveal her body with the attention on her large breasts.

Dr H, "Mmaammaaaa"

And then the Dr comes clean and admits to the prostitute that he was going to inject her with Window Cleaner (I think)

The prostitute replies in an incredibly high pitched voice:
"I don't mind"

 

[bunkerfan]

lovely figure but that voice was like fingernails down a blackboard
