However, just a warning to everyone: Nostalgia is a lying whore. A while back I re-watched "Camp" as an adult, and holy shite did I think it was a piece of crap.

Sometimes it's better to let childhood memories remain that way.

I dunno, I've seen Camp several times as an adult, and it's still entertaining to me...though part of that entertainment IS the nostalgia of watching it again.


And good call on Ernest singing...I still sing "I'm glad it's raining" to this day sometimes and people look at me like I'm stupid.

Also, great trivia question for people in their upper 20s/30s is what was Ernest's turtle's name in Camp?


ETA: Also, in college when we dressed up for basketball games, we'd often use the Indian chant (along with hand movements) from EGtC for good luck for the team. It worked surprisingly well. "Hey ya HOOOOOOOOOOO, hey ya hoooOOOoooo, hey ya hooooOOOOOoooo..."

I really enjoy the fact that the Construction boss was trying to murder Ernest.

Only time scared stupid beats camp is during Halloween. But both are great.

I would agree with this statement.



Although I do have a soft spot for this one:

I bought a DVD at Walmart that had Ernest goes to Camp, Jail,and Scared Stupid last week for 5 bucks...jackpot.

My kids have been watching it non-stop. Camp is the most nostalgic but scared stupid has the most laughs IMO.

Slam dunk Ernest is legit too.

I bought that same dvd not that long ago and the kids watched it nonstop, then I bought the first 3 seasons of duck tales and gummi bears. The best by far of the Ernests is Camp though.
