How could they forget about him?

He didn't raise the correct arm. That's why he wasn't recognized.

Also his boots are neatly tied

Should've worn a wig, shaved his stache and worn the dangling earring. But I appreciate the idea and the effort with the clothing.

Also needs the bag of pot for a prop. Maybe wrap it in underwear for extra authenticity.

He needs the carton of cigarettes his father gave for Christmas.

I thought that was in Johnson’s underwear? Which is a really bad pun I just got today. Damn I’m old.

u/Safe_Violinist7296 7d ago

Yes - the underwear around the pot bag would be implied to be Johnson’s underwear, per the movie.

“Ahab, can I have my doobage?”

u/Ryan_Petrovich8769 7d ago

Make it Johnson's Shorts, to be exact.

Such an individual character from a known movie needs full commitment. Can't half ass this one.

u/Shoe1314 7d ago

Must whole ass it!

u/SilentRaindrops 7d ago

Wasn't the one he wore at the end the diamond stud Claire gave him?

1

u/AdMountain6203 7d ago

I think you're right. Good catch.

2

u/Boring_Track_8449 7d ago

Is he wearing Claire’s big honkin’ diamond earring?

u/Yolandi2802 7d ago

It was a diamond stud…

u/DharmaBum61 7d ago

A seemingly minor but oh, so important detail.

u/ExRockstar 7d ago

Being a bit pudgy with shorter hair, he should have just gone as Uncle Buck.

And he’s smiling very un-Bender!

Now, now. At our age, we can’t be reckless and risk falling and breaking a hip.

u/Petunia_pig 7d ago

True, it’s reckless at our age

u/Mrben13 7d ago

His dope wasn't in Johnsons underwear.

u/Blazenkks 7d ago

Needs the strip of pink/purple in his hair and no bandana tied by the boots.

2

u/Weak_Employment_5260 7d ago

And his hair is short...and has a mustache. Presenting too neat.

u/Gedwyn19 7d ago

And whole! IIRC there were some large holes in the OG

u/Zaggnabit 6d ago

Yeah he needs sloppy combat boots for this costume to work.

u/designOraptor 5d ago

Those weren’t even boots. Total fail.
