Anybody else ever get a laugh out of the "clean" phrases that get dubbed into movies when they are edited for TV?
"Do you see what happens, Larry? Do you see what happens when you F(ind) a stranger in the A(lps)?" Walter (John Goodman) in "The Big Lebowski"

UGH...
I remember when the first Smokey and the Bandit came out. Jackie Gleason had a trademark expression in the film. When it aired on television they changed it to "Scum Bum" Terrible!!!!! Best, Tim Day 3 |

I got a call from Waylon Flowers (and Madame) one night while living in Tahoe.
He had the dirtiest show on the map. It seems he was opening for Helen Readdy and she was outraged that he used so many swear words. She wouldn't have it! So Waylon has me come down to the suite and for the whole night we sat and came up with substitute words and re-wrote his routines. He didn't change the act or the jist of what the jokes were but the words were heavily sanitized with really stupid substitutes. Trouble is when the show played it seemed even dirtier to those of us in the know! Fortunately it was a short run. We used Fudge alot.

In the movie "Johnny Dangerously" Thre is a character who is from another country (we never find out where) and he has a very foul mouth. Luckily he doesn't fully grasp american profanity, and so he goes around calling people Fargin Iceholes. That was not an edit, that is the real line. Along with other nice words like son of a bastich. I got a good laugh out of it.
More on topic, On TV the movie family plot (hitchcock's last) a rescued kidnap victem is being badgered to repeat his story over and over. His response..? "Aw Shucks!" IN Anthony Hopkins movie "Magic" the ventriloquist dummy says "Holy" and a very obvioulsy deeper and different vioce says "Mackral"

Not totally on topic, but I love the Orbit commercial where the wife catches the husband cheating on her and the words fly! Here are a few of the cleaned up lines:
What the French Toast!? Cootie Queen! You Lint Licker! Stinky McStink Face! You Hoboken... Here's the actual commercial! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEJJUGJZxpU I've been using the "What the French Toast" on my own wife a lot lately. It makes me giggle and it makes her roll her eyes! Lyndel |

This was many years ago Chanel 5 (Kvvu) on weekday afternoons aired afternoon movies. I don't remember what movie it was. It had Kristy Mc Nichol in it. G.D. was cut out as well as other words except for one short sentence Kristy said. I will clean it up here tho. "Go flip youself." So much for the censor being awake that afternoon!

The ultimate was when they added additional footage to the TV release of Cheech & Chong's Next Movie to substitute DIAMONDS for POT.

I don't recall what the movie was (possibly The Beast Within) but way back when it was new I read about one of the actors having to loop the line "sick ornery beast" to replace the standard s.o.b. phrase. They had an awful time getting it recorded properly 'cause they kept laughing through it.

Yes Honus, and that was followed up by...
"Your mother eats kitty litter!" Oh and lets not forget the pilot episode for the TV series Ironside. all the characters went around saying the word "flamin" ie. "just give me the flamin' address"

Speaking of SNL, anyone remember the Sofa King commercial? That reminds me of another SNL skit with Christopher Walken (classic SLN guest, IMO). Walken played a returning southern Civil War hero, Colonel Angus. That's about as far as I can go on the description.
My ex-cat was named "Muffin". "Vomit" would be a better name for her. AKA "The Evil Ball of Fur".

I had a problem with a class I taught where everything they said and wrote came out like they were programmed robots.
It was a battle to get them to not mentally check every sentence before saying anything and to write what they wanted not what they thought looked good on paper ie long, unreadable sloppy sentences with words no-one would ever use even in context. (I teach English in Taiwan). I wrote on the board "This is Sofa King We Todd it" and told the (senior High school) students they could go home if they could tell me what the phrase means. Class is 90 minutes. It took the worst student in the class about an hour to figure it out(why he got it and the rest not is fairly obvious). I then said "good. Now stop acting like English is something special and start using it like it is something useful" and sent him home. The change in their attitufes towards learning was Sofa King fantastic. |
