The part when Tom ducks from the bullet in the weed field...


Doesn't a bullet travel like 750mph and Tom has time to duck from it? Explain.

I thought it was Dan that dodged the bullet?
It wasn't supposed to make sense. It was a stoner scene.

Yeah but watch before that.Tom's like "I will give you 4 cows for Denise's hand in marriage."Then Dennis shoots and Tom ducks under the bullet.

Both Tom and Dan have red dots from the laser on their foreheads, and then dodge the bullets in the nick of time. Perfectly good explanation for this.

In that scene, two rottweilers got high and passed out, Dan dodged a bullet Matrix-style, Tom got shot in the arm and didn't even feel it and young Billy appeared beside Jerry while he and the guys were running through the marijuana field, resulting in a conversation between young Billy and Jerry.

This entire sequence was deliberately exaggerated. A suspension of belief was in order.

No, he shots RIGHT after he says that. Then he shots at Tom AFTER that

Exactly winterhorrorland!

And your sig is a bit behind. Most teens like pop music. Sadly (I listen to metal and rap), neither is very popular anymore.

WOW!! Some of you guys don't realize that THIS IS A COMEDY!! It's not supposed to make total sense because it's meant to make people laugh. It's a farce.
