      Old stale jokes

      No real plot to this one, just a series of short skits acting out some VERY old jokes. I chuckled once or twice in the beginning, much to my chagrin. But even at only 73 minutes this film wears out it's welcome before too long and becomes stale and tedious (with some nudity sprinkled in here and there to keep you awake). Still as bad as this movie is (and that's pretty putrid), it's a comedic gem compared to pretty much ANYthing by Aaron Seltzer & Jason Friedberg (Date movie, Epic movie, Meet the Spartans) Also the song is sadly kind of catchy in a sad way.

      Eye Candy: 11 pair of tits, 3 bushes, 3 asses

      My Grade: D

      Code Red DVD Extras: Original trailer for this film; and trailers for "Beyond the Door", "Dead Pit", "the Farmer", "obsessed Ones", "Power Play", "Sole Survivor", & "Wacky Taxi"

      And yet I laughed

      This movie seems to have been made from a very old dirty joke book. You can see the punchlines coming a mile a way, and yet there is something strangely charming about this movie. Perhaps it's the fact that something like this could never be made today. All I know is that The Little Red Riding Hood skit made me laugh so loud, I had to rewind it and watch it again. If nothing else, it is only 70 minutes long, so if you hate it, it won't be two hours of torture like most movies.

      A collection of raunchy skits

      "Can I Do It 'Till I Need Glasses?" Is a collection of skits much like "The Groove Tube" or what "Saturday Night Live" would look like without the television censors.

      Many of the skits are of a sexual nature and contain nudity. Some of the skits are funny and some simply are not. If you don't enjoy raunchy humor, you won't enjoy "Can I Do It 'Till I Need Glasses?". Everything from the Lone Ranger to riding on public transportation to being in court is spoofed.

      The cast is made up of largely unknown performers. Patrick Wilson (The Abductors, Lady Chatterley's Lover) and Robin Williams are the only actors that I'm familiar with. If you're watching just for Robin Williams, it's probably not worth it as he's featured very briefly in two skits.

      I first found this and it's companion film "If You Don't Stop It You'll Go Blind" at an old Carnival Video rental store in the early 2000s and decided to rent them, not knowing anything about them. Tons of this kind of stuff filled the shelves of video rental stores in the VHS era. Now, these types of movies are largely forgotten.

      Old Ribald Jokes in the Flesh

      Right up there with Groove Tube and Kentucky Fried Movie, 'Till I Need Glasses acts out on every old ribald joke you've ever heard. Non-stop from the beginning to the end, there is never a moment's rest.

      This is a sequel to the movie 'If you don't stop it you'll go blind'. Humorously titled 'Can I do it till I need glasses', the titles form a joke in themselves. There's not a frame that is not exposed with comedy.

      I saw this when I was a teenager, and later married the girl I saw it with. I think this movie had a lot to do with that. But I like it anyway.

      Plenty of sexual situations, mostly showing boobies.

      This is a classic from the 70's, as the attire will attest. I'm going to rate it a MUST-SEE for anyone from 14 to 114. Find it on eBay or wherever and share it with your friends. You'll all truly enjoy it.

      Low Brow But Amusing

      I saw this when I was sixteen years old and perhaps this was the reason I found this sketch based film so very amusing and I can still remember some of the sketches more than half a lifetime ago

      Man in nudist colony with back to camera hands two female nudists two cups

      " Coffee ? "

      " Thank you "

      " Donuts ? "

      " Thank you "

      Guess where the donuts are being kept ? Ha Ha Ha . That sums up the level of humour and my favourite joke involved the Lone Ranger who is bitten by a rattlesnake while urinating ( Guess what part of his anatomy got bitten ? ) so sends Tonto to get medical help . He manages to go into town a find a doctor who tells him that the only way to treat snakebite is " to suck out the poison " so Tonto goes back to find find The Lone Ranger :

      " What did he say "

      Tonto sees his friend lying in sheer agony : " He said ssss , he said sss , he said you're going to die Kemosabi "

      When asked most fans of this movie will admit the bus sketch is their favourite moment where a man sits on a crowded bus reading a porn mag . He unzips his pants and starts to masturbate . Yeah I know it's crude and near the knuckle even if the camera is locked onto a medium shot of the man's face but the joke works because it becomes long running . After the initial scene it cuts away to several more sketched then returns to the man who is more and more excited at pleasuring himself . Cut away to a couple more sketches then back to the bus which has now stopped with most of the passengers running out screaming . Back to a couple of more sketches then back to the bus with an overly excited man then back to the bus where he reaches a climax . In a state of sexual relief he pulls out a packet of ciggies and sticks one in his mouth . Thoughtfully he turns to the one remaining passenger on the bus , a priest and asks " Excuse me father do you mind if I smoke ? " The picture freezes and a caption and voice over is played - " You meet the nicest people on a bus "

      Hey guys I saw this when I was sixteen . Don't blame if me if CAN DO IT TILL I NEED GLASSES hasn't dated well

      • Trivia
        The original release did not include any of Robin Williams' scenes. It was re-released just before Popeye (1980) premiered, with his scenes included, and advertised as "Robin Williams' Movie Debut."
      • Alternate versions
        All scenes featuring Robin Williams were added to the film sometime after its theatrical premiere, to capitalize on his success in the TV series "Mork & Mindy"). According to British critic Barry Norman however it was Williams' growing fame that caused him to seek to have his scenes in this movie removed.
