Ernest Scared Stupid – ep 54 – 1991

Summary: Let's head back to 1991 for a memorable Halloween Movie from our childhood, in this Ernest Scared Stupid Podcast. One of us remembers loving this movie (spoiler - it's me, Angela) and Tyler doesn't remember much at all.<br> Happy Halloween - Ernest Scared Stupid Podcast<br> Tyler may not have remembered it as well or as fondly, but tune in to hear the details and see what YOU remember! The question we ask is, should you re-watch this? Should you watch it with your kids if you choose to re-watch it? Is there something "else" happening in this movie (is Ernest real? is this a dark allegory?).<br> <br> Tyer and I discuss: the wildly impressive treehouse that could and SHOULD get featured on HGTV, the unusual relationship Ernest has with the children in town, incompetent parents, and how this movie might be the unknown inspiration of a famous movie writer and director (can you guess who?). In this Ernest Scared Stupid Podcast, we also highlight how the obesity of children is not a new concept from the last decade; kids have been fat (at least in movies) for a while - look at the evidence in Ernest Scared Stupid! It's not helpful to call kids fat, but what WAS it with the chubby kids always being the bullies in these 90s movies? We also discuss the "look" of the troll in Ernest Scared Stupid. I mean, look at him, I was eight years old and terrified!!<br> <br> Tyler shares some fun facts, too - like where the pizza props came from in the pizza shooter. Hint: it's from one of his favorite movies!<br> <br> Last Halloween, we shared some other favorites with you!
