Edward James Olmos? WTF?

Great movie. And yeah, Edward James Olmos is definitely not in it, so not sure about that tag. I guess James Earl Jones and Edward James Olmos are kind of similar names.

bathe me thoroughly too please...

Saw this in the theaters years ago and made the embarrassing faux pas of yelling out "48 Hours!" when the Dukes made their cameo. This was made all the worse by my friend who followed with "It's Trading Places, you dummy!", and a round of laughter by the audience. To this day, I still haven't found a theater seat as deep as the one I was sitting in that night.

Lol, I wasn't even thinking what I was putting in the tags. Messing up James Earl Jones and Edward James Olmos is just my personal mental mess-up (dang you Galactica!)
