I have a picture of Slim riding the bomb down on the side of my fridge! Ahh, the good ole days! When premarital sex was frowned on and nuclear destruction a foregone conclusion! And they wondered why many of the young people were doing dope in the '60's! Escape? You damn right! We were drowning in bull shit with no life preserver in sight!
Yet there were tons of young people that never touched dope? That seems odd. Was it because they had better parents, or were they simply strong enough to not need a crutch? There's gotta be some reason, I just don't know what it was...
@@davepowell7168 What... Prohibition ended in 1933? The OP was about the 60's. But you are right about _Prohibition being counterproductive._ There were a gazillion times more speakeasys and many more times the number of drunks when it ended. Not to mention it being the economic engine that made the American Mafia so über-powerful in those days.
Wherein Mr Pickens quite literally crushes the role. If he's remembered for nothing else, let it be this.
this, and hes going to need a shit load of dimes
Sellers was the first choice to play him. I'm glad it was Pickens who ended up with the role. He was perfect.
Great cinematic HISTORY!
Greatest electrician in the field
If Darth Vader is part of your crew, you KNOW things are bad.

Dropping the big one at 500 feet above ground....lol .Great movie
Rip Capt. Owens, Shane Rimmer
Learned only lately he was also a singer. Talented gent, working actor.
Apparently Slim Pickens was never told the film was a (black) comedy, so played his character straight.
hahahaha 😅
Too bad Han Solo wasn't able to knock Vader off course.
