I’m throwing a birthday party for my brother tomorrow night. I’ve got BS on the DVR, huge 55" HDTV. Mom will be there. 
Since my previous post I’ve managed to see the uncensored version. Much better.
My father in law knows that we love this movie and insisted we all watch it and then they sat there in uncomfortable silence while I was dying.
FWIW, both Bad Santa and Bad Santa 2 are currently streaming on Netflix. Uncensored of course.
And if there’s ever a movie that’s pointless to censor, it’s this one. How can you censor a line like:
“He’s not going to say ‘fuck-stick’ in front of the children, is he?”
and have it make any sense? It’s like hand release with an oven mitt.
Brett Kelly, the kid, is a comedic genius in this movie.
OTOH, it must be horrible to know, and to have everyone else know, that you peaked at the age of 10.
A scabrously funny movie. And blasphemous, which is a bonus.
Lots and lots of alcohol.
Actually not:
August 4, 1961
March 16, 1967
They were both born in Honolulu, though.
Ahem,
Lauren Tom: August 4, 1961.
D’oh! The other Lauren in that movie. Never mind.
And my wife shares their birthday too but is slightly older.
Thank the fuck Christ.
I like the exchange where Bernie Mac tells Tony Cox to drag “Santa’s” drunk ass out of the department store and Cox complains that he needs help because he is only three feet tall.
Bernie Mac said something like, Yes, you handicaps all want special treatment and set asides and Cox unloads on him with a torrent of insults and profanity—right in front of the kids waiting to see Santa.
With less than a week until Christmas, and more importantly the Christmas eve safecracking, I thought I’d resurrect this thread again. I’ll be watching this weekend with a bottle of Old Grand-dad, and some sandwiches. Maybe a baloney tostada.
“Fuck the loofah, let’s go!”
Wanna play again?
I swear, that kid should just retire from acting. He will never, ever top this. He plays it completely straight and his performance is pure comedic genius.
He kinda did. He had 10 or so minor roles until 2010, then nothing until Bad Santa 2 in 2016. One minor role since.
How can they drop me onto my own head?
Mommy lives in God’s house with Jesus and Mary and the ghost and the long-eared donkey and the talking walnut.
Well, starring in a classic hit movie and it’s sequel is still more than 99 % of actors ever achieve.
I watched Bad Santa again last night and was surprised how thoroughly I enjoyed it, having seen the movie many times.
