Strange Brew 2
 Roncesvalles
Saturday afternoon, Zack & I bumped into Laura and the kids.
LAURA: Hey! What'cha doin'?
BLAMB: Zack spent most of yesterday inside while I was at a photo shoot, so I'm making it up to him with a walk to the waterfront.
I hadn't seen them since their Xmas party, so I explained how Alice, Quon'dar and Mr. Loaf were crashing at my place.
LAURA: My sister was in a tv movie with Mr. Loaf and Charlotte from Sex in the City.
 BLAMB: Yeah, Mr. Loaf has a bit of a grudge against your sister because she was cast in the sequel to Strange Brew. He resents everyone connected to that project.
LAURA: But it was never produced! The financing fell through right before shooting was supposed to start.
BLAMB: Mr. Loaf had his own idea for a Strange Brew sequel. It was going to be a remake of Scarface but the story was adapted from Julius Caesar with Mr. Loaf in the Tony Montana/Caesar role and Bob & Doug in the Cassius and Brutus roles. And it was going to be a drama instead of a comedy.
LAURA: A drama?
 BLAMB: Mr. Loaf is convinced that the sequel would have been produced if they'd gone with his idea. He claims that Dave Thomas was against the pitch because Mr. Loaf wanted to have Geddy Lee do the soundtrack instead of Ian Thomas.
LAURA: The whole thing sounds like a bad idea. Nobody wants to see the McKenzie Brothers in dramatic roles.
BLAMB: Mr. Loaf has a copy of Traffic on DVD and he watches it all the time. He says that's the style he had in mind.
LAURA: Ha!
BLAMB: Sometimes he'll recite dialogue from Traffic and Scarface and throw in "hoser" and "eh?" at the end of sentences, "Say hello to my little friend, hoser!" It's really sad.
 LAURA: Well, it's important to have goals in life. People need to have dreams.
BLAMB: Kenny Rogers contacted me via mental telepathy through a dream one night and told me that he wants to do a Strange Brew sequel with cowboys, set in the old west. The story would be based on King Lear.
LAURA: Now THAT would be worth my hard earned entertainment dollar!
Down at the lake, Zack enjoyed the fresh winter air. The waterfront is his favourite spot.
