I absolutely love Uncle Buck but the scene where the teacher yells out "BLASPHEMER" was very jarring and outlandish, as a kid I used to be creeped out by that scene, also is it just me or did Maisy's teacher look creepy?
shareThat was inserted to show how harsh the teachers were in reference to Maisy. Note it was right in the middle of the Asst principal scene.

I thought the scene was supposed to emphasize that Buck’s language (“that damn dryer”) was so jarring to the people in this town
shareI agree, but only because I thought the scene was stupid and unfunny.
shareYeah, it seemed harsh just cropping up like that. I wondered if there was more to the scene but it ended up on the cutting room floor.
shareSo God was still allowed in schools back then? I can't imagine any teacher caring about blasphemy these days. Although I would be good if they did.

Agreed. Terrible scene. Should have gone in the edit.

There are two kinds of people in the world, those with loaded guns, and those who dig. You dig.
I've never found the blasphemer scene to be all that funny either.
shareWhat was that?!?
Agree, creepy and unnecessary.
Thought it was hilarious.
