    • Quotes

      Turkey: Let me tell you, I won't be here very long.

      Rover Dangerfield: I tell ya, the way I see it, you probably won't be around after Christmas!

      Turkey: Well, that would suit me just fine! Well, I might have known: There's absolutely nothing to eat here!

      Rover Dangerfield: Yeah? Look in a mirror!

      Turkey: Oh... I don't get it.

      Rover Dangerfield: Don't worry about it, drumstick. You will!

    Childhood Thing
    Maybe it's a childhood thing. In fact it probably is. Considering the fact that i was at least 5 when I first watched this film, a young boy growing up in Ireland during times where nothing particularly amazing was happening. To be honest, back then i had absolutely no idea what i was watching. I just liked Rodney Dangerfield's voice. It was amusing. The song's were amusing, and Rover's little gimmicks every now and then sent me and my siblings chuckling and laughing, pointing at the screen and reenacting the said moments that had made us laugh so much "He look's kind of fat' I'm 17, and i've re-watched this on YouTube due to my sister sending me the link with the caption 'Part 1 for you' and a little love-icon. And yes, i watched it all over again, and found myself laughing at all the little moments again, finding humour in what is essentially a weak film. It just brought back all the memories of living in my favourite place back to me, and although for others, this is a tedious film that hardly suffices for children's entertainment, let alone anything else. This film is my personal favourite family childhood film, which i will always love and defend to the bitter end.
