Sinatra phoned it in when he did his duets album, too.

Apparently Siskel clarified this later: Million Dollar Duck and Black Sheep were assignments he was doing in his job as a newspaper critic. Maniac he was only seeing because he and Ebert used to have a "Dog of the Week" segment on their show, so he didn't consider himself to be "on-duty." He just had to verify that it was bad and that was enough.

Special Criterion edition, Stroker Ace

I'm a big fan of Maniac, both the original and remake, but I can understand Gene's reaction. It was pretty shocking and grotesque for it's time and it's much easier to appreciate now since we've had so many forgettable slasher movies come out since then. Freddy, Jason, Pinhead and Michael Myers have practically become mascots now, so overexposed that they've lost all their menace. Maniac stands out as a gritty and nasty look into the world of a much more plausible killer.

You don't have to cover the scenes of the movies dude. There are plenty of channels that show Siiskel and Ebert that don't do this. 🤦‍♂️

I liked both of the David Spade , Chris Farley movies. It's fun to see them interact. I wish they made a couple more.

The Maniac remake was really good, it’s actually really smart because it’s taking what could be considered very grungy low-brow 80s slasher aesthetic and then not only sets the remake in the art world, but the visuals themselves are really clean and then the technical achievement of having most of it POV. So it’s still wanton violence and typical slasher kills but makes it something different

Maniac is a horror cult classic and was so loved by the horror community is was remade with Elijah Wood. Burt Reynolds would make a comeback by winning a Golden Globe in his career and getting a Oscar nomination for Boogie Nights.

Overall fun stuff and pretty reasonable, but once in a while they get off on their own island. Probably would happen to anybody doing that kind of constant critique.

Watching these two is a little like going back home for a few minutes.

Stroker Ace is like watching a political debate.

Patch Adams is by every measure a horrid movie. Robin Williams was always at his most insufferable when he was making oscar bait movies.

The only funny thing Chris Farley did that wasn't based on him being a large guy doing physical things, was his awkward interviewer character on SNL. Lorne Michaels said those skits represented Farley's true personality but sadly Farley obviously felt he had to be the fat man falling down for people to like him. John Belushi was his hero but Belushi's weight or size was rarely the joke and when it was, it was clever (ordering four whole chickens at Aretha Franklin's soul food restaurant). Likewise John Candy. Yes, some of the humour was around his size but it was always done with affection. Candy was a physical comedian but you never saw him do demeaning stuff like Farley was stuck with. The industry failed Chris Farley.
