Freddy Got Fingered

You mean I shouldn't blow the brains out the back of my skull?

I can walk backwards as fast as you can


My kids (5+10) sing this all the time, (obviously they haven't seen the movie)

I sing this at least once a week and am about to annoy everyone at work with it all day now

It's an absolute menace of an earworm. Even the sight of sausages has me singing it.

I always thought I was the only one. Sadly, no one ever knows what the heck I’m referring to when I sing it.

“DING DOOONG” would’ve been a good one too

This was an absolute meme for our group before memes were even a thing. 

I SAY GENEVA YOU HEAR HELSINKI

CLEAN OUT YOUR LOCKER AT THE CLUB!

Thanks! I didn’t know that. I can kinda see Shatner but Rip owned it so hard it’s difficult to imagine anyone but him in the role.

Rip Torn was just about perfect. But I can see Shatner really hating to be in this, which might have made his casting even better somehow.

Rip Torn was perfect, but I’d have loved to see Shatner cursing up a storm and throwing Tom Green violently into things.

He later revised his review: “Seeing Tom Green reminded me, as how could it not, of his movie Freddy Got Fingered, which was so poorly received by the film critics that it received only one lonely, apologetic positive review on the Tomatometer. I gave it—let's see—zero stars. Bad movie, especially the scene where Green was whirling the newborn infant around his head by its umbilical cord. But the thing is, I remember Freddy Got Fingered more than a year later. I refer to it sometimes. It is a milestone. And for all its sins, it was at least an ambitious movie, a go-for-broke attempt to accomplish something. It failed, but it has not left me convinced that Tom Green doesn't have good work in him. Anyone with his nerve and total lack of taste is sooner or later going to make a movie worth seeing."

Half-miss, given that we’re here discussing how the first part has become true

Proud

That part had me cackling 🤣

I remember watching the commentary on this and Tom said he was just supposed to drive away but one of the extras accidentally walked out in front of his car. “GET THE F*** OUT OF THE WAY!” was totally ad-libbed and became one of the best lines in the movie.

I have quoted that line my whole life and I still cannot make it sound as funny as tom green did. And I’ve really tried.

Isn't he taking the bus to ho show his comics to the animation company ?

Bro the slutmobile And the f****** subway sandwich

Make yer daddy proud

GET THE F*** OUT OF THE WAY

My kid also learned that when he was six.  Not from YouTube but because I still quote that over 20 years later!

Tom Green crawled so Tim and Eric could walk so Eric Andre could run so Tim Robinson could fly??? something like that??? But hey, to me, they all fly high in the sky together, arm in arm

That’s a f****** camel

Tom Green pioneered the man on the street format, pioneered absurd Jackass like antics and also pioneered podcasts. I find it funny when people write him off as a clown that does shock material. The truth is that he's not just clever, he's exceptionally brilliant and part of his charm is just how good he is at hiding that fact.

My absolute favourite thing with this was on the DVD extras. They dropped a speedboat from a helicopter into a woodchipper and then didn’t even put it in the movie

...plus Drew Barrymore just doing whatever!

I have a bag of jewels for you! They're jewels Betty..........they're jewels.

Look! I'm a farmer, too!

It will never stop being the perfect movie.

“Mike Fitzgibbons son is a nuclear physicist and my son can eat a chicken sandwich”

The loony loon? 

Sweeedish... My bum is on the man, my bum is on the man, it's a lot of fun to put your bum on a man My bum is on the cheese, my bum is on the cheese, if I'm lucky I'll get a disease! Man, of all the songs I've heard in my life why is this the only one I know all the lyrics to? Even after nearly 30 years too....proves it's lyrical genius

I'm a farmer daddy!
