I think it would make both films even funnier than they already are.

You are right about the problems with the film's structure. But as you say, the first part is just so good that it really doesn't matter.<BR/><BR/>I also thought it genius to cast Warren Oates as Murray's antagonist. The scene they have in the barrack washroom is incredible. It isn't played for laughs which throws off the rhythm of the film in a good way. You mentioned the possible structural parallels to FULL METAL JACKET, there is also a barracks washroom confrontation in that film as well!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164105442273577128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2118574901486983093.post-33047391810195916132008-07-15T21:17:00.000-07:002008-07-15T21:17:00.000-07:00The first half is so good it almost doesn't matter...The first half is so good it almost doesn't matter that the second half is a little lacking. It's not even that it's bad--you just wind up never needing to see it as much. Still, it's such a funny movie.Mr. Peel aka Peter Avellinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10553482286909862975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2118574901486983093.post-91265060051171047102008-07-15T07:28:00.000-07:002008-07-15T07:28:00.000-07:00Great movie.

Funny thing was that I now recall that I seldom watched the second half. Still, great movie and great benchmark Murray and Candy movie.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13844508710343430303noreply@blogger.com
