  1. Alright, that's #DuckSoup!

    Thanks for following along on the #comedon hashtag and if you weren't able to watch the movie tonight, feel free to watch it on your own. The Marx Brothers' style of chaos makes for a good break from less funny styles of chaos.

    I am challenged in the areas of attention and organization so I'd love for others to pick up the idea and see if we can make #comedon an organically self-replicating event.

    During the film it was suggested that we do it again next Thursday at the same time with Galaxy Quest. I haven't seen it (if I was the only one picking comedies movies we'd probably never make it past 1950, so I probably shouldn't keep picking movies). It sounds good to me, especially if there's someplace to stream it for free.

    How's that sound to others? And if a movie isn't your particular cup of tea, then suggest the name of one that is and we can watch it next.

  2. Hail, Hail, Freedonian! Our annual New Year's celebration of the Marx Brothers is on! We're making Freedonian fezzes all week as we watch every Marx Bros. film.
    You have until Saturday to order yours at Fez-o-rama.com

  3. Someone reminded me that Duck Soup was released on this very day, November 17, back in 1933. The amazing mirror scene still reduces me to gales of laughter.

    Rufus T. Firefly is named the dictator of bankrupt Freedonia and declares war on neighboring Sylvania over the love of his wealthy backer Mrs. Teasdale, contending with two inept spies who can't seem to keep straight which side they're on.

  7. Here's something to brighten your day - one of the funniest movie clips of all time - the "mirror scene," from the Marx Brothers DUCK SOUP. Harpo, disguised as Groucho, has to...ah, see for your self!
