What happened to movies that just made you laugh without getting disgusting ?
Laurel and Hardy , Abbott and Costello , The Marx Brothers , The Three Stooges, Harold Lloyd , Buster Keaton , Charlie Chaplin , Fatty Arbuckle didn’t need to use bathroom humor to be funny. They were just simply talented.
I'll no doubt make commentary as the days and weeks go by once a lot of people have seen the video. As of now it's gotten 146 hits and 13 comments in a little over 3 hours time...so it should become another major video hit for Ray Stevens. .... for a long time, these are what music buyers would buy instead of entire albums; also, this was during a time when LP's were granted to the most successful artist's; this single comes from Ray's debut album "1837 Seconds of Humor". ...
It seemed that Kevin could stop being wordy and really obtained a sense of comedic timing. Then there was Jersey Girl and out of respect to George Carlin I will not discuss this movie here. However, again in a Pheonix out of the ashes move, Kevin Smith came out ... "You had sex with the dead guy in the bathroom?" Clerks. "I was going to propose, as Jaws popped out of the water." Mall Rats. FINGERCUFFS? SNOWBALLING? He opened my naive, young mind to so many possibilities. ...
If they can be here and live under these difficult conditions, then so can I. Although, it's not for everybody. It takes a strong person to be here both as a soldier and a comedian.

I remember Eddie Murphy admitting that his first stand-up routine as a teenager was about going to the bathroom because that was all he’d done. (In other words, all that he had done that was R-rated.) Maybe that’s why there’s so much bathroom humor in kids movies. It’s the only supposedly taboo subject with which they’re familiar.
Personally, a good bathroom joke can get me roaring, but it’s been a long time since that happened. I’d like to see Hollywood drop the subject for awhile.
But I know the Marx Brothers managed to sneak some in. When Groucho is locked in the bathroom in "Duck Soup" he shouts, "Let me out! Let me out or throw me a magazine!"
LOL It’s called toilet humor.
I’ve seen a lot of movies these days with good humor. It’s just some movies are really sh*t, such as Scary Movie, Epic Movie (etc).
It’s just the way they are made – not very well. But hey, some people like it, some people don’t.
