The FOT's own Dutch?

Put "Let's Spend the Night Together" on the soundtrack...


BUT use the David Bowie version from "Aladdin Sane."  It would be great for the obligatory Plunko & Quarter Do New York montage with sped up footage, handheld shaky camera and whirling lights.

I vote that Plunko and Quarter do New York be the sequel, just because shooting here is more difficult.

[John Junk]

All we need to do is shoot it in Jersey City and Hoboken and get three establishing shots of them in Times Square or something.

...or they could visit Williamsburg to take their local team to the kickball regional championships, but then they get turned off by the rampant alcoholism of big-city kickball. 

[buffcoat]

True.  Also, no one outside of New York really knows what New York looks like anyway.  IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT WE TELL THEM IT LOOKS LIKE!!!!!

[KickTheBobo]

the trip to the big city is a requisite part of Plunko showing Quarter how to have FUN again. Think the Natalie Portman role in Garden State. She's totally got that magic pixie thing going on.

Instead of kickball, how about a game like 4 Square which (as far as I know) hasn't had a surge in popularity amongst hipsters?

That night Quarter breaks in to the machine so he can give Plunko the Sluggy Sam and prove his love and that he has a set of berries.  Unfortunately he gets caught and gets fired.  Crisis!

Surely we'll include a scene of Quarter at a police station after he's busted, in front of a policeman with an old-timey typewriter, taking down Quarter's address, and so on. The cop is sympathetic towards Quarter, brings him coffee and zones out, reminiscing about the days of his youth, when he used to roam the boardwalk. Quarter looks on, puzzled, yet another awkward interaction with the outside world.

Can Plunko have a beloved pooch named Petey?

Can Quarter have a beloved bong named Petey?

Maybe Plunko could also introduce Quarter to the exotic mind-altering effects of salvia and/or magnolia seeds while listening to 'Pangea'.  There could be a backwards guitar-solo within 9 seconds of them intaking the "drugs" with a detailed photo montage a-la Easy Rider of them experiencing totally wierd stuff in New York.  Then after they've had a "freak-out" they can regret what they've done and make out. 

[dave from knoxville]

How does Abba figure in?

[dania]

Right after they make out, they look at each other, all surprised somehow, and they just crack up; cue: ABBA. 

[Beth]

I do own a spinning wheel if it is needed for the trailer. Seriously.

Also, have we discussed wardrobe much? As in Plunko's overall attire. I would assume some sort of hoodie is involved.

-"Funny" sunglasses (NOTE: these must be the kind that hipsters wear, instead of the kind that hipsters cruelly mock people for wearing)
-'70s/'80s sneakers (adidas; New Balance... British Knights?)
-Maybe their pants can be "quirky" but not in a specifically retro-kitsch way. Blue plaid, maybe.

An easily marketable costume is a necessity.
