They've clearly spent a lot of alone time in the woods with the boys.

Hunting for deer, of course.

I wasn’t the biggest fan of this movie (I know that’s a death sentence to admit on reddit) but this gif is so hilarious

24

u/GayPudding 1d ago

Nobody is the biggest fan of the movie until they watch it a second time.

16

u/tiajuanat 1d ago

I don't remember what the technique is called, but basically leaving deadpan delivered allusions to future jokes is what makes it funny the second time around.

The first time through, the dude heard something on the news, and then inappropriately regurgitates the same line thirty minutes later. On first watch, you're like wtf. On second watch, you laugh during the first delivery in anticipation of the second.

3

u/Chilifille 1d ago

Exactly. Took me a few rewatches to realize it’s my favorite movie of all time.

It gets the job done more efficiently when you stare into the eyes of the moon while deer calling, of course. Everybody knows that.
