Blowed up real good 

Canadian slang, often used dismissively or as a joke -- wow, wish that idiot would blow up real good! Originated during the 1970's in Canada by Second City cast members John Candy and Joe Flaherty. on the comedy show SCTV, a fictitious television network with it's own shows, one of them being the Farm Film Report, where two farmers discuss the latest movies and film theory - a routine parodying Siskal and Ebert. Supposedly the best part of a film is when things get "blowed up real good." They even had some celebrity guests (other cast members dressed up as Dustin Hoffman, Bernadette Peters etc) who were "blowed up real good" during special "Celebrity Blow Up" segments.
"Best part of the movie was when things blowed up," says John Candy. "For sure," replies Joe Flaherty, "they blowed up real good!...real good!!"
