there was a film which I cant remember correctly but it had a scene when 2 guys are trying to cash a cheque of a guy who just died - they sit him in a chair, roll the chair to a bank and say to the teller that he's "tired" or something - do you guys remember what that film was? Anyhow, point is they (those fellows) remind me of Pete and Todd.
edit: it was actually a real story http://news.sky.com/skynews/Home/Sky-News-Archive/Article/20082851300101 but I'm pretty sure I've seen something like that in a film as well. |

Yeah, clearly those rankings don't mean shit anymore. A game is in the year's top 100 even though it's not fucking out yet? Who the fuck do you think you're shitting?
It would be quite hilarious if they had done it 10 years ago. Duke Nukem Forever would have had a guaranteed spot in the yearly top new releases table for a good decade  |

I think the movie was "Weekend at Bernie's" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0098627/ . I think someone actually made a photoshop of todd and pete on that poster too.
Of interesting note on how I found that film, I remember one of the guys in it but I didn't remember any movies specifically. I searched the Breakfast Club and found the red head and used that movie Pretty in Pink to find that guys name then I clicked his name to find that movie. I'm quite the internet detective.
I vaguely remember liking te movie as a kid. |

I remembered about "Weekend at Bernie's" but I meant a flick with a scene with a dead guy literally being wheeled down a street in a chair, in some city setting. At Bernie's the action took place in some beach house IIRC?
But anyhow, yeah, the theme is quite similar. |

There are 2 movies, so maybe you just didn't see the one he's referring to? |
