i liked the part where Gil goes into the hotel and starts gently and quietly asking the clerk about "frankenstein"... (then Jack comes back and sees Gil has ruined their image after 5 minutes in town.)

they say competition is good, sets down the price,
but seems to me like they all charge as much anyhow,
some new technology, i was looking through the diffrent options list,
and i think i just had a blackout.. let me lay down a bit,
can that option work? can i chose that?
they're gonna laugh at me couse i'll sound like a dumbass,
"there will be no changes made",
has become the sweetest sounding phrase,
and when you want to end the old subscription,
you'll stay trapped for a period while your wallet keeps getting thinner,
new supplys, more options, it's since long reached the point of too much...
imagen someone say - you don't need to get new stuff,
"there will be no changes made".

:D I like the part when Gil bursts into Jack's room when he's on the phone and he has him keep going back outside to knock first and then to wait for 'who is it?'

Also like the part when Gil is 'casually' hanging from the wall when the two old women walk by :D

When Gil is looking for Laura. He climbs up a tree to look around, but when he climbs down he climbs OVER the 'Frankenstein' and ends up staring right into his face. Ed Begley's reaction absolutely kills me every time. Absolute terror done for laughs must be hard to pull off but Begley nails it.

I absolutely love that first scene with Loopy and her husband. They were so funny, with poor Loopy clinging onto him and getting in the way. "Go away, Loopy. I can't stand subordinants." lol.

Plus, the gator (lizard?) phone was a great touch. I started laughing every time it rang. That first bit where the mayor throws out, "Ow! The phone bit me!" was great, particularly because it sounded sort of spontaneous and added on. I would be curious to know if that line was originally in the movie or if it was just an improvisation.

When Davis, dressed in a vampirish leotard skimpier than most swimsuits, straddles Goldblum's legs, with her bosom pressed to his face and forcing his hands to her hips.

When Jack and Gil follow the guy they suspect is a wolf during the
full moon and find him getting it on in the bushes with a woman.

"Gil goes into the hotel and starts gently and quietly asking the clerk about 'frankenstein'... (then Jack comes back and sees Gil has ruined their image after 5 minutes in town.)" And the best save Gil can think of is that he meant (still quietly) no, Frank Sinatra, Frank Sinatra. Begley nailed this movie.

There are too many to choose, but this is one of them:

...
"Okay take it."
"I got it!"
"Now what are you going to do with it?"
"Hand it you!"

Donald Gibb as The Wolfman always make me laugh:

Wolfman "WWRRROAAAAH,WWRRROAAAAH,WROOOOAAAH!"
Dr. Malavaqua "Oh back off with that growling crap! Why did you bring him here?"
Wolfman"I couldn't get the dude off my back."
Wolfman "Hey Doc, come on over back here. I'll tear every bit of hair you have out of your ass!"
