Brings back memories

Warning: Spoilers
I first watched shrimp on the Barbie years ago on VHS. And I remember that I laughed so hard watching it. When I watched again recently I laughed but, the sides of my face did not hurt like when I watched it years ago.

I remember that when I watched Shrimp on the Barbie years ago I found the scene where Carlos first meets Alex's parents hilarious. No, I laughed at it a little but, did not find it nearly as funny.

I also liked the scene at the Restaurant at Alex's dads birthday party. After Carlos puts the cake on the table he takes off the rope holding up the piñata and the Piñata is to heavy and it lifts Carlos off the ground and smashing the cake and getting everyone covered in cake.

And I am pretty sure years ago I thought the scene with Bruce and Dominique in the pool was hilarious. It still makes me laugh. But, not nearly as much.

And I was also thinking that back when I first watched the movie I was not aware that Cheech was part of Cheech and Chong.

And and one thing I noticed when I recently watched the movie was the license plate on Alex's car said her name Alex. I never noticed before that it was a personalized license plate.

Mañana the song from the soundtrack got stuck in my head.

I don't find The shrimp on the Barbie as fun as I used to. It still does make me laugh. And it certainly brings back a lot of memories.
