Some restaurant ideas:

Oligarchy Garden - Famous for their "Endless Bread and Water" entrée. In fact, it's their ONLY entrée! And you have 10 minutes to finish, to make room for the rest of the rabble.

Old McDonald’s – Farm-to-table fresh! But no dessert until you finish all your veggies!

Applebee’s Way – Quaint little place, simple menu. Owner George Apple stops by every table to regale you with stories of how he gave up the daily grind in L.A. for the simple life of running a grist mill and getting involved in honorable causes. No, the knives aren’t sharp, just so you won’t slash your wrists after listening to him go on for hours.

Neuman’s – No, not Paul (RIP), but Jerry Seinfeld’s favorite nemesis. And don’t plan on having a quick bite – service is slower than…well, you get the idea.

PUNCH THAT BIG CACTUS (1992)
Keenan Ivory Wayans follows up his lampooning of 1970's blaxploitation films with this homage to the blaxploitation western. When a former slave (Wayans) partners up with cattle Rustler (Jim Brown) and a card player (Bernie Casey), all hell breaks loose as they confront a lawless murderer (Isaac Hayes), a crooked sheriff (John Vernon), and a midget named Leo (Gary Coleman). Pam Grier, David Alan Grier, James Carrey, Kim Wayans, and John Savage as "Greener"


This premise is too good for a mere Wayans project. Sure, there's a subtle nod to "Take a Hard Ride", but I think this one should be played straight. Have it filmed in 1973 minus Wayans, and get yourself another midget.
