I already made that toast joke--it's pretty crumby of you to steal it.

Doesn't anyone pay attention to the Gene Siskel reviews anymore?

Shit. None of the other threads I start make it to 2 pages.
I better start making stupid mistakes more often.
IMDB lists that 4,624 loafs of bread were used in the making of this film, almost half of which were sliced for the final cut.

I thought it was an interesting social commentary when the researchers were discussing why people think that wheat bread will not shrink as much as white.

Yeah, but unfortunately it lost some of that credibiliy by portraying the wheat bread in such a stereotypically "hood" manner. Not all wheat breads are yeast peddlers and absentee fathers.

Right? Just a crumb of subtlety, that's all I'm asking for.

Indeed. Although the "country style" bread's scene was quite disturbing. Just because he had an expansive list of cultural ingredients, it got a little stale when he kept making racist jokes. Reminded me of the dentist on Seinfeld.

Looks like Christian Slater is going to be starring in the first "Does Bread Shrink When You Freeze It?" rip-off called:
Do Muffins Feel Pain When You Eat Them?
weak.

This is all very funny, and I was laughing with everyone too, until I saw this at IMDB...

This just in from Spike Lee:
"This film is racist in it's portrayal of colored breads. I know many loaves of pumpernickel, and not one of them has ever spread mold on a white loaf as I saw in this movie. My next film will concentrate on a group of freshly-made loaves that bind together and, without the help of the white man's yeast, rise to the occasion."
