As much of a fan as I am of Bill Murray and Ramis “Ghostbusters” had two jokes in it. Dickless and stay puff marshmallow man (which must be a regional thing). I really didn’t understand what all the hoopla was about. BTW Huey Lewis sued Ray Parker Jr over the song. Apparently it’s just like “I want a new drug” I don’t get it but Huey win the suit.

Wolf - I didn’t get it. Way too much F bombs. I don’t know that I finished it. Based on Jordan Belfort’s actual life. His cell mate in Federal minimum security prison loved his stories and said he should write a book. Tommy Chong was doing 9 months for selling paraphernalia on line. He told Belfort his first draft read too much like Tom Wolfe so he redid it.

We are racking our brains on what 80’s movie we recently watched. It was way worse than I remembered and, as you said, it had the looks of cocaine all over it.
