I went "Good" and "I'm A Loner Dottie, A Rebel." I don't know why, but some of the movie makes me laugh. There's some pretty not-so-subtle, yet indeed subtle comedy in the movie that works on a few age brackets. 

What happened to Paul Reubens is another story entirely, and one where I didn't really get the cultural zeitgeist when MTV welcomed him with open arms on their awards show to wild applause. It was like applauding prison sex. 

 
When we adopted my Aussie as a puppy from a rescue group many years ago she had an amazingly fuzzy hind side, made it look like she had a big butt.  Being the odd ball that I am, named her Simone immediately.  “Come on Simone, let's talk about your big but...”

 
I saw it in the theater when it came out and loved it. There were other people that walked out on the movie. It's clearly not for everyone. Voted great and rebel. It's a classic.

 
Some of it has held up well and some of it has not. I would say it is good. 

Best line is by Peewee.  After Frances' dad says he is taking his bath, Peewee fires back with, "Oh really, where are they hosing him down?" :lol:  

 
I live (eta...love) the movie...went with excellent, but HOF borderline.

Other.... "Your mind plays tricks you, you play tricks back"

With second going to "...I say we hang him, then kill him... I say we let him go" ...pre tequila scene

Other: Merci beaucoup Pee-Wee....

His response is pretty much all I hear in my head whenever any French is spoken around me.

 
Went with good, would have picked very good if it was an option.

Not as essential as the Playhouse but better than Big Top.

 
I became a big Pee Wee fan when I saw the original Pee Wee's Playhouse special on HBO.  It was a stage "play" with some of the comedy troupe, "The Groundlings" which include Phil Hartman as "Captain Carl."  

The Saturday morning tv show was ground-breaking and hilarious.  Appointment watching television - I set the alarm clock for it.  

The guy got caught masturbating in a porn theater - a definite career killer, but he wasn't raping people.

 
saw his show at a place on Melrose backinaday when it was naughty - no idea who he was @ the time. habsolutely gobsmacked was your humble servant by his entire distillation of the 60s making-model-airplanes-and-jerkin-off kid and all the voices in his head. funniest theater show i've ever seen -

Pee-Wee watching himself on-screen as the bellhop, with the nervous glances at the camera, with the overdubbed voice, is one of the strangest (yet funny) scenes I have ever seen in a movie. 

 
Also, The part that makes me laugh the hardest is the casual "Hows' it Goin?" he throws out to Twisted Sister as he rides through their video shoot.
