    The best movie idea I ever heard was grown up Kevin is a fuckup, down on his luck, gets in a desperate situation, decides to find Harry and Marv and reprise the Wet Bandits with them to rob some houses, and encounters a kid just like him, same gags except Kevin knows some of them are coming abd it turns into a battle of wits. Something like that.

      What a half-assed, barely-a concept idea. It needs to be fleshed-out, if not complete rewritten. It’s also absolutely genius. Please, take my money!!!

        Maybe there’s another nastier crew crew that happens to be casing “the kids” house and the Wet Bandits decide to turn over a new leaf and help the kid defend the house and set the booby traps?

    I cut that scene from my copy. It changed the story not at all, in fact it helped continuity.

      Yeah the scene had to be added to get to use his hotel. It wasn’t an integral part of the story.

    So in scenes where they’re together, would they be
