We grew up with this dude, and life just seemed to be better. Ernest Scared Stupid was awesome. I miss Varney, this was so fun as a kid. What was the best Worrell movie?

Remember the stuff we were shown as a kid in the 90's? You simply had to have a level of maturity. Millennials could make a pretty cool world going forward, we just gotta do it.

I haven’t seen them all but Jail was pretty bad.

Scared Stupid is #2. And the best BY FAR is Ernest Goes to Camp. That one is awesome. I got my son on the Ernest movies early on. He’s loved Camp and Stupid since he was 4 or so.

Scared Stupid was a yearly watch for me as a kid. It was fun, Ernest is a damn treasure being slapstick/witty/impressionist/etc.

I would liken him most to a live action Bugs Bunny.

Camp was easily the best movie.

Scared Stupid is the only one I’ve ever seen, but I wore that VHS out as a kid.

Watched it the other day for only the second time in over 20 years. Still fun, and Trantor is still super creepy.

Like with most series, the first one were the best, with the quality getting worse as the series went on.

1987: Ernest Goes to Camp
1988: Ernest Saves Christmas
1990: Ernest Goes to Jail
1991: Ernest Scared Stupid

These are the first and best ones. I'm not a big fan of the Christmas one, because Ernest seemed to be a secondary character in his own movie.

1993: Ernest Rides Again
1994: Ernest Goes to School
1995: Slam Dunk Ernest
1997: Ernest Goes to Africa
1998: Ernest in the Army

These aren't great, but it's still Ernest. I like Goes to School, because it has a zany Loony Tunes feel to it.

I watched Camp the other day and it was still awesome.

I couldn't believe how much I was laughing at him, or what he was doing. I love his little speeches, and when he says, "Ya know what I mean." Perfect.

John Cena could play a relative of Earnest. He looks like him.

He should just lean into it at this point and play a part opposite of a character named Vern
