Guzzi V7 in new Pee Wee Herman movie
« on: April 19, 2016, 08:34:08 PM »
Wow, who knew?! Now Hollywood is trying to destroy Guzzi by associating them with Pee Wee. I was bored tonight. It's available on Netflix streaming.
yeah, I might be addicted to brake fluid. But I can stop any time I want.

Hollywood?

I'm sure the V7 was "placed" there.  Piaggio probably paid good money to have the V7 appear in the movie..

It was surely placed.  But I doubt Piaggio paid much if anything for the pub.  I suspect they were approached by the production company, who was looking for a reasonably sized motorcycle, that was different enough to make sense in a Pee Wee Herman movie.  Piaggio likely offered it for free, in exchange for the pub.

I tried to watch the Pee Wee movie last night, I got through 38 min and then just couldn't take it anymore.  It's terrible, and I'm a Pee Wee fan.

It lacks the spontaneous wit, and decent writing that made is last big move at hit 20 years ago.   The Stone gets some good air time, pulling full wheelies, and blast off from a stop, of course they used typical harley like exhaust sounds. :sad:

Its on Net Flix if you're into self abuse.

Ima go out on a limb and say that it was funnier and wittier 20 years ago, because you were 20 years younger.

Ever tried to rewatch Cheech and Chong movies at this age?
