Do you like movies? What about the movie called It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World?

They did an.. Homage to it in 2001 with "Rat Race"

It's a pretty bad movie.. But.. For some reason, I rather enjoy it. Let's say this.. It's not an award winning film, but.. It's got some chuckles in it.

I saw that the 1st time I took LSD as a teenager at the Alex theater in Glendale CA, now a restored historical building.

I saw it once as a re-run on TV when I was in elementary school, it failed to keep my interest. Thought I was too young to appreciate it, saw it again as an adult; still didn't like it. It was a bit too madcap for me and I usually like madcap but this was just too all over the place. I didn't hate it. It just didn't hold my attention and I kept falling asleep.

Saw it when first released with a packed audience that tore down the theater with laughter. It's a classic in every way and I watch it rather often. Much is lost on younger people who don't know the stars in it. And on a small screen doesn't help. But it's a treasure when properly seen with the right audience. It endures.

I think you've got it right.

People today don't know what a cavalcade of stars this film was. But it works the other way, too. I'm 71 and I don't know half the current stars, particularly if they're from the hip hop world (and similar genres).
