HHN: The Director's response to Barry's "scream" attempts.

Mind giving more details? Or can you not?

The first time, the director said "I asked for a blood curdling scream, not constipation." The second time he said something a bit more crude, but it got everyone going "oh damn!". No, I will not be posting what was said unless I have Barry's permission.

He may edit it out, but the line is too funny!

One of the funniest things I have witnessed at Universal was at HHN 2001 when a chainsaw guy chased three guys right into a ladies room full of women. everybody cracked up laughing at them. they looked horrified.
another was HHN 2002 when a chainsaw guy chased this woman and she ran out of her shoes. I never did see her go back to get them.
I know its not nice to make fun of people but once at IOA we saw two elderly ladies wearing nothing but t-shirts with BIKINI bottoms with flip flops and big straw hats. every head turned and I will never get the image of all those varicose veins out of my head. (shudder!
Linda all packed and ready to go!

How many copies are you doing Barry and in what format?

 

[SpideyHulk24]

These are all too funny.

Thank you, Barry!

In summer 2000 I and some friends made these short films. I was the camera man, and they all turned out well. We had rather low expectations, and they were exceeded!

OMG!!!!!!! The funniest thing happened today during the Horror Makeup Show!!!!!! Anyway, I copied this WORD FOR WORD b/c I videotaped it (practice using Kevin's camcorder before the wedding. ). Too funny!

This is during the end when they introduce Edgar and tell the "volunteer" what to do. Anyway, the volunteer was an elderly lady from Sweden who didn't speak English. This is what Mark James says:

"...When you move he moves. It's a first level of programming; pretty basic but it'll look cool if you move slow when I tell you --- you don't understand what I'm saying!!! All right, uh, in a second I'm going to push a button and you're going to burst into flames like a 3-month old Christmas tree. Those doors over there are going to open and a pack of wild dingos are going to come out here and grab your little body and drag it around the theatre a couple times; we'll all laugh and clap because that's what we do here in America!!!"

LOL!!!! That is funny Fly Fly!

IOA: Just after the Bucs won the Superbowl, when the Grinch was posing for pics and a kid had a Bucs shirt on, the Grinch made hand guestures indicating that he was a Bucs fan and agreed with the kids' shirt.

Wonder where the Grinch is with the Marlins?

"Wonder where the Grinch is with the Marlins"?
He's sulking, like me.

Ya'll can't win every year, Jess!

True!

Okay since I'm over here I remembered something that happened during our last trip that was pretty funny!

My family just got off JPRA and we started walking towards The Lost Continent when my husband noticed people looking at us funny. I started paying attention and people were really going out of their way to get a good look at my son who was ahead of us at the time. When I caught up to him, he was BLUE. Not a little blue either, majorly blue! At first glance I paniced. I figured he was having a problem breathing (although now in hind-sight his behavior didnt indicate that at all) as he has asthma. Before my eyes he continued to get bluer! It was then we noticed his white socks were turning blue too! Before our trip I bought the boys new shirts for the trip and never pre-washed them. This one was indigo BLUE! The water from the ride soaked us and as he walked the dye was just running all over him! Being the kid that he is he had also wiped his face with his sleeve so he really was blue, everywhere.

Since it took me more than a bit to figure out why he was blue I can only imagine what people were thinking as they passed this blue kid! My son is rather fair so it stood out even more.

We werent ready to head back to the hotel so I figured I would run into a shop and get him a new tee shirt. I did this while my husband took him into the bathroom to help him wash off the blue. Yeah right! His butt cheeks were even blue! I ended up buying him shorts and a tee! The change of clothes did nothing to hide my Big Fat Liar wanna be. Poor kid stayed that way till it wore off, couldnt be washed off.

Of course I got a picture...butt cheeks and all! We had a great laugh then, and now every time its brought up too!
My little guy was 5 at the time and when we returned to the hotel he went right for his clothes found the matching shirt he didnt wear yet and threw it in the garbage!

 

[Motherfletcher]

LMAO because I was a blue baby. So blue I was black. My dad had serious concerns when he first saw me.

Remember when Jacksonville HORRIBLY beat the Miami Dolphins a few years ago? It was one of those games that was SOOOO bad that you were almost ashamed to be seen in (or with) anything Dolphins. Well, my boyfriend (at the time) was a BIG Miami fan, and we had taken a weekend trip to Orlando (we were living in Daytona at the time). All he packed were Dolphins t-shirts. When we went to Universal, I saw Harry from Harry and the Hendersons outside of the Horror Makeup Show. He waved...stopped....then motioned for us to come over. We walked up, he stood directly in front of my ex, pointed at his shirt and did the LOUDEST screaming laugh that I have ever heard in my life. Of course, when there's a Bigfoot making noises like that, people are going to come over to see what the big deal was...

My ex was not very amused, but I thought it was hilarious Especially when Fred Flintstone did something similar later in the afternoon...


Then there was the time my sister and I were running trying to get onto the Dudley Do Right's flume ride. She thought she'd save time by sliding under the railings instead of walking around them (no line first thing in the morning). Well, it had rained the night before, so she slipped flat on her butt in a puddle of muddy water. The ride attendants ribbed her about that for a little while.


Two HHN's ago, my sis and I decided to get as many beads as possible. We went with a group of 5 people...and whenever we'd get the beads, she's tie them around her belt loops. Soon, we had SO MANY that it appeared she wasn't wearing anything underneath them. Many a hootin' and a hollerin' was heard A gentleman working Jaws was loading us into the boat, took one look at her and said, "DAMN!" I guess he thought it was just me and her getting them...hehehe....last count was about 650 necklaces!

That same HHN we took a friend named Walt. He was an ex-Marine who was not afraid of ANYTHING....had done and seen many things while in the military. Well, apparently he was afraid of the guys with the lightbulbs on them in the Psycho House. Poor Walt...6 ft 3, a very big guy, ran out as fast as he could.


This HHN, on my 3rd trip there, I took said sister. She's got quite the lungs on her, and I dared her to scream as loud as she could at the not-so-scary parts of the houses. Well, she let a massive scream out in the line right outside of Screamhouse (Where it looks like you're in the yard), and it made the GROUNDSKEEPER jump! Nevermind the people in front of us....the scareactor with the shovel looked spooked!

Lastly (that I can think of at the moment), I went to Universal with a group of friends. The only person who had never been to the park OF COURSE ate nearly an entire box of Krispy Kreme donuts before we got to the park. After riding Back to the Future (I know this is gross!), he threw up all over the place outside. Doc Brown rode up on his bike, took a look at the mess and quickly turned around, yelling that he forgot to feed Einstein. Again, I thought it was a little funny...especially the look on Doc's face!
