Every time I go to the grocery store to pick up hot dogs (and of course hot dog buns) I laugh to myself remembering a hilarious Steve Martin rant:
“I’ll tell you what I’m doing. I want to buy eight hot dogs and eight hot dog buns to go with them. But no one sells eight hot dog buns. They only sell twelve hot dog buns. So I end up paying for four buns I don’t need. So I am removing the superfluous buns. Yeah. And you want to know why? Because some big-shot over at the wiener company got together with some big-shot over at the bun company and decided to rip off the American public. Because they think the American public is a bunch of trusting nit-wits who will pay for everything they don’t need rather than make a stink. Well they’re not ripping of this nitwit anymore because I’m not paying for one more thing I don’t need. George Banks is saying NO!” –George Banks, Father of the Bride
Father of the Bride and its sequel Father of the Bride Part II are Steve Martin comedy at its best! These movies are equal parts emotionally sweet (especially the voiceover narration of Steve Martin’s character) and crazy comedy.
The 2-pack set is a great 20th anniversary blu ray collection and set at a great price because the 3 disc package has a suggested retail of $29.99. You can grab your own copy starting on Tuesday May 15th (plenty of time to pick up this combo pack to give to your father this Father’s Day)!
Besides featuring hi definition editions of both films there are some fun bonus features as well. There are audio commentary tracks for both movies included (the Father of the Bride II one is especially funny because the commentary is with Steve Martin and Martin Short). There is also a fun feature starring Martin Short and Steve Martin where the two hilarious actors interview each other. You can also view your own virtual invitation and listen to the original score from the original film.
You will not be disappointed with this fun and hilarious comedy combo pack!
