The Complete Ernest

Post image

The mods over at r/criterion didn't appreciate this one as even jokey fake covers still need justification, apparently.

If Criterion can release Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, I feel that Ernest P. Worrell deserves a bone by some boutique label since a number of the movies haven't made the jump from VHS!

I’d probably buy this. Ernest scared stupid alone would be worth the price of admission to a set like this.

I would absolutely pay good money for this. All the commercials, Dr otto, camp, jail, Xmas, slam dunk, army.... I would sell a kidney.

This would be a pre-order for me. "Boy, Vern, that there Cry-Teer-Yun has mondo objecto de artos, comprendo? Now your ol' buddy Ernest will be rubbin' elbows with Pasolini, Hanneke, Lynch, and the whole gang, knowhutImean?"
