Tonight's movie night movie will be, "My Cousin Vinny (1992)." This is one of those classic comedies I kept hearing about forever and simply never got around to watching, so tonight we shall watch it. Hopefully it's all right. 90s comedies are sometimes a bit hit-and-miss for if they hold up or not.

@bigzaphod Be prepared for all your boys to fall head over heels for Marisa Tomei.

Some of the gags may not age well. Pesce was at his peak popularity at the time. But it definitely has its funny moments, some of which endure in modern culture.

It's an excellent film.
@bigzaphod Imagine you’re a deer…
@bigzaphod It’s excellent. It’s so weird to me that this film was directed by Jonathan Lynn, who before it made British political sitcoms. He also did Clue.
@bigzaphod It’s one of my favorites so I’m excited for you to watch it! ATP did a review of it as a member special a few years back and they were kind of lukewarm on it.
But FWIW, it’s very popular among lawyers who generally say it is a good representation of a court case.
@bigzaphod It holds up! Quoted regularly in my house.
