So, we’re waiting for the subway at Chicago Avenue, when I spot an advertisement for the movie “Norbit.” I comment:
Dutchman: So — would you rather see Norbit or Battleship Potemkin?
Podman: Potemkin.
Dutchman: But Norbit has got fat jokes.
Podman: So? That’s not as gross as the maggoty meat in Potemkin.
Dutchman: I’ll bet there are naked women in Norbit.
Podman: And what’s more homoerotic than sailors?
Dutchman: Norbit has Eddie Murphy.
Podman: Nobody does a montage like Eisenstein.
Dutchman: I’ll bet there are lots of fart jokes in Norbit.
Podman: Lots of fart jokes in Potemkin, too.
Dutchman: There aren’t any fart jokes in Potemkin!
Podman: Sure there are! You just can’t hear them because it’s a silent movie.
