positive · AI labelView post →No lie, but with the ever expanding cast of the Mario movies, I think a good setup for the third film should be something akin to the movie Rat Race, where you just pair up all these characters together into small groups and have them all on the chase for something. That would be pretty fun.
neutral · AI labelView post →I quite enjoyed the movie “Rat Race.”
positive · AI labelView post →the only movie i could think of is Rat Race. i guess we could watch that 4 times. actually lets do that
positive · AI labelView post →Jon Lovitz - 📽️ Rat Race (Jerry Zucker, 2001) The movie isn’t that good, but as always, Lovitz sacrifices no sincerity as the greediest one. His wide-eyed, cartoon scheming is funnier than any of the script’s jokes, whether he’s drugging his own family or stealing Hitler’s car (you had to be there).
neutral · AI labelView post →The movie was "Rat Race" btw which I don't think I remember being particularly good, but it did have boobs in it, so teenage Liz was real into it!
neutral · AI labelView post →Name a movie that would be improved if it had the same ending as 2001's RAT RACE (All the characters inexplicably end up onstage at a Smash Mouth concert)
neutral · AI labelView post →Just saw Rat Race. I think this is the first film I’ve seen where I can describe every single character on-screen as an idiot, including the extras. Not that that means it’s bad.

Any genre is fine~ I know: Road Trip, Eurotrip, Without a Paddle, Cars, Joy Ride, RV, We’re the Millers, Due Date, Paul, Meet the Fockers, Toy Story (was debated, they count as road trip movies if you think about it), Rat Race,

positive · AI labelView post →The Jellystone episode "It's a Mad Mad Mad Rat Race" features a poster with Brak and Zorak parodying the film "Brokeback Mountain". Storyboards for the episode make the reference even more clear.

neutral · AI labelView post →Why do more people not talk abput the vastly under rated 2001 classic "Rat Race." More people should talk about the 2001 film Rat Race.
positive · AI labelView post →I actually knew about this from a tasteless but honestly very funny joke from the film Rat Race of all things
neutral · AI labelView post →This scene between Whoopi Goldberg and Cuba Gooding Jr. in the 2001 film Rat Race was the first time two black Oscar winners ever shared the screen together. (As in they won Oscars before appearing in the movie. There are plenty of scenes before this that retroactively featured Oscar winners.)

positive · AI labelView post →One of the shorts in our film is, "Welcome to the Rat Race," animated by FNOOK. In a toony style, Espresso the rat is trying to rescue his boyfriend Elias the bull from the Rat Race games. Does Espresso have what it takes to save him?

neutral · AI labelView post →"Rat Race" is a really fun, funny, if extremely-dated, movie. It also punches waaaaay above its weight and has some of the best line reads in the entire history of cinema. Lovitz doing god-tier work throughout.

neutral · AI labelView post →Let me add on to what I initially thought of before: - (MY FIRST IDEA) A 2D animated film involving a comedic race inspired by It's A Mad Mad Mad Mad World, Rat Race (but not as raunchy, it has to be PG after all), and Around The World In 80 Days. Maybe even expand beyond this concept. (1/3)
neutral · AI labelView post →In the movie Rat Race, the bad guys are a bunch of ultra rich assholes who have nothing better to do than make stupid bets with tons of money on increasingly absurd events that they mostly manufacture themselves and if this sounds familiar, I'd like to point out that this movie is 25 years old.

neutral · AI labelView post →Back in 2001, the film Rat Race had rich people betting on absurd scenarios like "which maid can hang the longest on a curtain rod" or "who would throw up first on a turbulent plane." In hindsight, I wish they would have gone that way.
