If I had to hear Vince Vaughn say money or baby one more time I think I would have smashed my tv !!!! I counted baby (11 times) and money (15) times in one frame !! How anyone can like this movie is beyond me. And how these two atrocious actors went onto fame baffles my mind...Some of the worst acting EVER. And baby, it aint money !!!!
shareI must confess, I got truly sick of hearing the perpetual spouting of the word "money" too.
shareMoney, get away
Get a good job with more pay and you're O.K.
Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream,
Think I'll buy me a football team
Money, get back
I'm all right, Jack, keep your hands off of my stack.
Money, it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good *beep*
I'm in the hi-fidelity first class traveling set
And I think I need a Lear jet
Money, it's a crime
Share it fairly but don't take a slice of my pie
Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're giving none away
"HuHuh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"
"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely.
It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out."
......GREAT MOVIE.... it's money!
I couldn't finish watching this film for this exact same reason. I don't understand its cult status when every other word is baby/money (meaning of which seems interchangeable).
Someone please explain why this is supposed to be funny and not insanely annoying?

If we have to explain it, it won't be funny anymore. Just give up on this one and be glad when you find something that makes YOU laugh.

First penguin says to the second penguin "Looks like you're wearing a tuxedo."
Second penguin says "Who says I'm not."

Now, did you laugh at that?, because if you didn't I'm not explaining that one to you, either.
a) By 'one frame' I think you mean one shot
b) Clearly there is not some of the worst acting ever
He definitely didn't mean one frame...I was thinking he actually meant one scene. But a shot is definitely longer than a frame :P

However, if you watched it in 1996 or even a few years after it would have been the first time you heard people talking like that, so I would bet it wouldn't have been so annoying to you. It was this movie that put "baby" and "money" in the context they used into mainstream vernacular. I'm sure if I watched it now for the first time I wouldn't enjoy it as much as I did back then.
shareI watched this the other day as I saw Vince Vaughn was in it. I just found the movie quite slow and boring and didn't see much of a story, and got really annoyed with them saying 'money'. Wouldn't really recommend it.
shareI thought this was a really great film. The screenplay was smart, the characters were genuine and familiar, and it's just a lot of fun to watch.

The people that think this is a terrible movie, just haven't got a clue!
