<< the first time i watched it, it was funny as hell.. 2nd time wasn't that good tho so i didn't buy the dvd >>
It gets better for me. I keep picking up a little more and more each time. I really wish I remembered more from The Odyssey but freshman year high school was toooo long ago 🙂
Oh, and there are other references in the film, too, unrelated to the Odyssey. Tommy Johnson...well...that one's pretty obvious. And then there's Gillian Welch in the record store which was a reference to when The Beatles were just starting to be recognized in Europe (they were mostly playing in Germany at the time).
