That's some top tier hater-ade! With the hammer that Ernest is no-doubt packing, Disney's ultimatum is like owning a Ferrari but having it never leave the driveway. That puppy needs to run wild and free!
yeah, I've always thought Jim Varney was low-key kind of a sexy guy. He's shirtless for at least part of Ernest Goes to Jail and the man was in VERY good shape. Put the "physical" in "physical comedian"
I think whoever at Disney decided that is much creepier than the idea that Ernest is capable of sex, in that unwholesomely "wholesome" way that Disney has.
There's always been a "Disney House Style" that cramps anybody who works for them's attempts to make a movie that doesn't feel castrated by Disney Corporate - sometimes it even crept into their "adult" subsidiaries like the now-defunct Hollywood Pictures and Touchstone Pictures, though less than anything with the Disney name on it! The only Disney company you didn't get that feeling from was Miramax Films, and that had its own issues....
A part of me wants to debate whether or not Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam really counts as an Ernest movie, but I'm going to tell that part to shut up and go eat a sandwich or something.
Disney told the writers, "He's smooth down there"
