Question
I am looking for a movie that I saw when I was a little kid.  The movie must have come out in the 1980's or 90's and I think  it would be considered a slapstick comedy.  The only thing that I remember about the movie was a scene that took place in at a ballet.  Some of the dancers had whoopee cushions in there leotards so when the ran and jumped in the air you would here farting noises.  They also had something in there paints that made them look like they had erections.   I think the movie was about three guys, one of them had curly dark hair and glasses, but I am not sure.  Does any  of this sound familiar?

Answer
hello

i believe the film you are thinking of is called 'brain donors'.  it's from 1992 and was based loosely on the marx brothers film 'a nite at the opera'

I know funny. My husband knows slapstick. between the two of us, we know most of the funny movies and who stars/directed them. we`re particularly fond of movie bloopers, and can recite verbatim from films like caddyshack, meatballs, animal house etc. huge bill murray fans, as well as robin williams and steve martin.
