So he could wear his prosthetic cocknose.

why did the judge have a cock shaped nose if it was fake anyway?

When he was working on SNL he was driving from his house to New York every week (it was evidently a long drive I guess). He had to go through some weird small towns and thats where he came up with the idea for this ComedyKino
The stars all did it because they were friends with him even though they kinda knew it sucked.
Dan is talented but it seems like he is better with coming up with a basic outline for a movie and then have a director smooth it out. Examples: Ghostbusters was original set in the future with several GhostBuster companies were competing against each other. Blues Brothers was like 400 pages where every single character in the band had a fully detailed backstory.

He literally and unironically has autism.
I remember buying it on DVD because it came with "spies like us" wasn't there a rap scene or something?
It doesn't seem like a real movie looking back on it

Fucking 2 Pac and Digital Underground are in it, and they have a musical number with Dan

The past was stupid
>Roger Ebert famously hated the movie so much that he refused to write a review for it after giving it one of his most emphatic "thumbs down" reviews ever on Siskel & Ebert (1986). On the show, Ebert said that when he went to a weeknight showing of the film in 1991, the theatre was almost abandoned except for him, a few lone adults, and several teenagers who were making loud, rude comments at the screen; Ebert famously went over to the teens and asked them to be even louder so he didn't have to listen to the terrible movie anymore.
>What inspired this movie was one day Dan Aykroyd imagined his friend John Candy in drag and burst with laughter, for weeks every time he imagined that image he would burst out with laughter, so Aykroyd decided to write a movie where Candy would play a woman, he thought of a plot later.
>Chevy Chase did not like the script, but took the leading role because he wanted to work with his friend Dan Aykroyd and thought they could improve the movie by improvising. Chase later said that Aykroyd took a huge career hit when the movie bombed because he had taken on so many roles (director, writer, actor and producer) that no one else had a high enough profile to take blame for how bad things turned out.

because he's a massive sperglord who needs to have his autism channelled

I bet he has 100s of scripts sitting around. If a good editor could get a hold of them we could get some comedy adventure classic cinema

That's totally not what a public pervert/voyeur would do at all.
