We still love what we love.No. I just find it really strange and shocking. To me it is on par with Airplane!, Blazing Saddles, The Naked Gun and the like. Until tonight, I just always assumed Popeye had the same reputation until I looked up reviews. Even after reading the reviews, I still can't comprehend what they're complaining about.
I'm going to have to rewatch it, I think. I think I was a teenager when it came out. Who knows what makes a film a cult classic? I vaguely remembering one of my friends laughing riotously while we watched it - but he was on something like four hits of acid, so that *just might* have had something to do with it.
