So now that he's apparently suing Yahoo! for trademark infringement, I think it's time to have a Yahoo Serious revival. Thoughts?

Do you think BLack musicians ofen say "nigger" because it reminds white people of latent rascism?

I have a horrible feeling that I may have lost my virginity after watching Young Einstein, it was either that or Highlander two.

Obviously if it was Y.E. then it didn't put me off too badly!

Well, why doesn't good ol Yahoo Serious sue Jonny Swift along with his current civil suit--afterall, the presence of "Yahoos" in Gulliver's Travels is a definite copyright infringement.

His second film, Reckless Kelly, is a strange work indeed. Man wears garbage can helmet, gots gadgets. It's like Superman 3, or Mac and Me. Almost like watching a movie, but something just not right..

four years pass...

maybe he shoudl be the next 007

Maybe he should have.

adrian martin, my favourite film critic, gave his last movie a glowing review! then some other critics on a radio show called him on it and he was all "hey, I can say what I like if I want to, no-one else was at the preview screening! it's not like any of you watched it!"

As a small child, I was given the soundtrack to Young Einstein. It had pieces of dialogue from the film. It had BIG PIG.

No wonder I'm fucked up now.

do you wear an apron esteban?

whatever happened to yahoo serious, is he still alive?

― gem (trisk), Wednesday, 8 February 2006 07:31 (nineteen years ago)

my first memory of a commercial is an ad for this movie, with the announcer going "yahoo serious IS...young einstein!!!" as if yahoo serious were a known commodity whose name would sell anything.

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Wednesday, 8 February 2006 07:52 (nineteen years ago)

i think i posted that exact same comment on another thread about this movie!

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Wednesday, 8 February 2006 07:53 (nineteen years ago)

I stopped watching young einstein when the dude started making that kitten pie. Too brutal for me.

― phil!!, Wednesday, 8 February 2006 08:01 (nineteen years ago)

i just read the 'yahoo serious' entry in wikipedia. if that wasn't written by yahoo serious himself i will eat my hat.

"Serious is currently working on an epic World War Two movie drama about how an overwhelmingly outnumbered and outgunned ragged bunch of Australian soldiers fought a fierce battle as part of the Kokoda Track Campaign which stopped the Japanese invasion of Australia; it is scheduled for filming in 2006."

― J.D. (Justyn Dillingham), Wednesday, 8 February 2006 08:17 (nineteen years ago)

might be tricky to come up with a wacky pun to name that one

― gem (trisk), Wednesday, 8 February 2006 08:24 (nineteen years ago)

Kokoda Kickass!

If it wasn't for the ground-breaking work of Yahoo Serious, there would never have been a Carrot Top.

― Redd Harvest (Ken L), Wednesday, 8 February 2006 23:56 (nineteen years ago)

We're very sorry!

― Trayce (trayce), Thursday, 9 February 2006 00:16 (nineteen years ago)

You oughta be, ya crocfarmers!

― Redd Harvest (Ken L), Thursday, 9 February 2006 00:19 (nineteen years ago)

But I guess you gave us Dame Edna, so all is forgiven.

― Redd Harvest (Ken L), Thursday, 9 February 2006 00:19 (nineteen years ago)

I was really hoping this thread had been awakened by a big Yahoo Serious fan a la the Ya Kid K threads

the other day i went and bought a book of stamps. i didn't realise till later that they are dame edna stamps. they are for important and grave suck-up letters to potential law firm employers. it cracks me up every time i put her giant purple hair on the envelope.

― gem (trisk), Thursday, 9 February 2006 02:02 (nineteen years ago)

Cling on, paupers, cling on!

― Redd Harvest (Ken L), Thursday, 9 February 2006 02:04 (nineteen years ago)

Caption to one of the photographs accompanying the article:

In July he was seen taking the BMW to a mechanic with apparent radiator problems
