This caption feels intentional to make people "Um, actually..." in the comments

I notice a lot of obvious spelling/grammar/logic errors in titles.

I wonder how much of that is also karma farming?

But you are not being honest.

It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

(I wonder if that is the reason you said "tbh").

I am downvoting this post.

I can understand why your comment would be downvoted, but this is a bit much.

Like golf; your short game needs some work.

Yes, I didn’t think people would know the reference if I mentioned the Audrey 2. Most people in my town just though she was a piranha plant from super mario. She won first place in her age group tho.

Reddit has a lot of Gen Zers. That's one of the things they makes it so fun for some of us. You can reference 70s and 80s stuff and people know exactly what you're talking about.

I’ve even seen the version from the 60s. It’s pretty horrible but it does have one of Jack Nicholson’s earliest roles.

If you have never seen the Roger Corman film, do yourself a favor and watch it. I love the Frank Oz musical, and that film is loaded with talent. However, in my opinion, Corman's film is both funnier and more interesting.

No discredit to Frank Oz, who his a brilliant polymath!

I never gave that version a fair shot, because when I was much younger, I bought it on VHS because the cover said Jack Nicholson was in it. He got top-billing. I got a short time into it, and either he wasn't in it yet, or played a mostly bit part, and I lost my patience with it. Seems like I need to give it another shot with my more more open mind, and with realistic expectations.

:) You get my upvote! It's an underrated movie.

Happyberger t1_iubnmvt wrote

Jack plays a delivery boy or something like that very early in the movie, he's in it for all of about 8 seconds. I bought the same copy with his name and picture plastered on the front. He also looks like he's about 15 years old, but definitely still very much looks like him.

He plays the same character as Bill Murray in the musical version. Weirdo that likes teeth being worked on.

Lol I think you're the only person to say that a Roger Corman film is funnier and more interesting than a real movie. Though I did notice you didn't say it was better.

phthophth t1_iub8zt2 wrote

I would not rate either movie is better. From your comment, it sounds like you may not have seen the original. It is a really good movie! It is darker, funnier, and more thought provoking. However, it does not have the production polish of the Frank Oz film for obvious reasons. The comedy in the original is quite dry, so do not watch it with any expectations.

In my opinion, one thing that makes the Frank Oz film great is that it is so very different. Please just give the Corman film a chance.

ginga_bread42 t1_iub9d3j wrote

I haven't seen the original in its entirety honestly. It wasn't exactly the easiest thing to find when I was looking for it. I do however know how Roger Corman movies tend to work lol. Even when they're terrible its kind of fun to watch.

phthophth t1_iubf2ee wrote

It's actually a very intelligent movie. Some of the acting could be better, but most of the acting is great.

Subsequent to the events you have just witnessed, unsuspecting jerks from Maine to California made the acquaintance of a new breed of flytrap and got sweet-talked into feeding it blood.
