Unfortunately my first reaction as well, and as I started I actually wondered if it would be 1998 or 1988. I'm 31, am I about to understand these references or have them just barely go over my head?
This is either a wild coincidence or you're stalking me but
"George Street Playhouse presents Tales from the Guttenberg Bible, a farcical, story written by and starring veteran screen actor Steve Guttenberg (Three Men and a Baby, Police Academy, Cocoon). The show features 90 characters, four actors, and one Steve Guttenberg for a truly a one-of-a-kind experience through May 21."
I will only be referring to Steve Guttenberg as "The Gute" from now on.
It really speaks to your skill and the number of 80's movies I've seen that my only thought at each wild plot point was, "Yeah, I could see it." The trailer would've been a banger, classic voiceover, record scratch and needle drop when the judge says "Horse Arrest", the works.
"CGI was in its infancy in those days, having been developed only two years prior for Dire Straits’ “Money For Nothing” music video, and it wasn’t considered a viable option for creating the numerous horses needed for the film"
This caused me to spit my coffee. Come to think of it, the tall skinny guy in the Money For Nothing video could DEFINITELY have been an early CGI Steve Gutenberg.
I believe that the Beef Weekend franchise wanted to go in a darker direction, leading to Beef Weekend 3: Horse Arrest being put into development. Thankfully, common sense prevailed.
I have bad news...1988 was 35 years ago, not 25. Time is weird!
Listen, you hire me for Hollywood history, not math.

The movie is from 1988. I am mentally stuck in 2013. Oppa gangnam style.
I had a similar sense of confused displacement (I just turned 32)
I'm gonna start a class action lawsuit on behalf of myself, Allen Iverson, Andre Iguodala, and all other "AI's" that you have besmirched
Speaking as a Cavs fan, Iguodala deserved it.
J Jonah Jameson is pounding the table for pictures of the Gute on that motorcycle.
f***ing babies, how do they work?
This is your “Albuquerque”
Oh this...this was good. Great start to Wednesday, 'book.
Thank you!

E. Kestrian. I saw that.
Eddie Kestrian, who signed the Horse Arrest rights away as E. Kestrian
I felt like I was walking a fine line between making that joke too obvious and not obvious enough, glad you noticed either way.

I think the mint from all the juleps has seeped into your brain, Cookbook.
(This is not a bad thing, I love it)
Great read, loved it! Now what can you tell me about Kevin the Kookaburra? I'd like to know more please.
The best dumb AI joke ever thanks much for your services Scott.
