Best plot for a full-length movie? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Out of all the plots that were featured in the Honeymooners episodes which one do you think could have been made into a good full-length movie that included the original cast. My pick would be "Funny Money". There's enough material in that episode for the movie to be funny and also serious. Definitely a full ninety minutes of captivating entertainment.

Sorry! Probably another repeat thread.

If we're going with the classic 39 I'd have to say "Unconventional Behavior." They could have made a whole movie with just the- Getting out of the handcuffs, getting on the right train, how Alice & Trixie would have reacted etc-
Plus I would have liked to see them dropping water balloons out of hotel windows

This is actually a good thread, I don't think it's been done before. Anyway, out of the Classic 39, I think "A Matter Of Life And Death" and "Trapped" would've made good full-length movies. As Great One mentioned about "Funny Money," there's enough material in both of those for the movie to be both funny and serious. It would be hard to choose from the Lost Episodes, but a couple that come to mind are "Stand-In For Murder" and "This Is Your Life."

I agree with what you said. Just picturing Ralph and Norton dropping water
balloons out of a hotel window cracks me up.

I'll haven't seen all of the "Lost Episodes" but "Stand-In For Murder" and "This Is Your Life" are mentioned alot in other threads. The theme for each episode must be very good.

I would say so, you should definitely check them out when you get a chance.

I plan on watching them as soon as MPI releases the updated "Lost Episodes".
