A "buttload" is an actual measurement, next time someone tells you that they need a buttload of something, tell them 126 gallons might be a bit too much.

Almost a day later and no one's guessed it?
OK, I propose an informal rule for this game:

If nobody has guessed the right answer after 12 hours, the poster shall re-word the title to make it easier. And if no one still has gotten it after 24 hours, then someone else can post a new title.

And in keeping with that proposed rule:

Minions.

(Also, that was my answer that you blatantly stole from me while we were having lunch together, and joke's on you because technically The Colour of Magic is a made-for-TV movie based on the book of the same name, and I'm not at all sure that made-for-TV movies even count, so it might have been the wrong answer. So, nyah.)
