Ashleigh: “I’m surprised we haven’t seen the bald bear.”
Me: “Funny you should mention that!”
I was thinking the same thing while picturing that bare bald bear ass and laughing.
Her expression when the bear appeared was PRICELESS!!!! LOL
@@marniejane11 My mother used to lose her mind laughing at the bald bear butt lol.
Me: Ask and ye shall receive. Lmflwao
Everybody loves the bare-ass bear.
Hi Ashleigh. If you love John Candy, may I recommend "Cool Runnings." He's great in it, as always.
Please do this one!
Or summer rental is good John candy movie
classic
Yesss do this one pleaseeee
Sanka, ya dead?
"Summer Rental" is another John Candy movie. It's terribly underrated and it's a sweet movie.
Ashleigh, save Little Shop of Horrors for Friday, September 23. That’s the day the movie / play takes place so it would be perfect before the start of Hallobeans!! And John Candy is in that movie too and he has a job on the radio!
Love that movie!! Steve Martin with dark hair, Rick Moranis, John Candy, Bill Murray, and Levi Stubbs! Brilliant.
But try to find the "Director's Cut" version, the one on the Blu-Ray.
You might like Summer Rental, a very underated Candy film which is him on vacation with his family but it's Rather subdued compared to the great outdoors but it's still very funny
Summer Rental was filmed here locally, one of the guys from our drama class got a bit part in the movie, he's on screen for like a minute and has a few lines. We were so jealous. LOL.
I second Summer Rental!
I'll third that!
This!
That is a great one.
Old dynamite is even more dangerous than good condition dynamite. As the nitroglycerine ages and sits neglected, it leaches into the paper and can form crystals on the surface of the sticks. These crystals are extremely shock sensitive and even bumping them can cause a detonation.
Came her to say this. The nitroglycerin can also leak out, build up, and explode without warning if it's kept in damp conditions so if that mine section is normally filled with water like that they might be in even more danger there.
As we all learned from Dr. Arzt.
I learned that from the William Friedkin movie _Sorcerer_
I learned this from the A team and being a precocious 12 yr old
@@SomeHarbourBastard That bridge.... 😳
I absolutely love this one. Something along the same line is Funny Farm with Chevy Chase. Such a great movie.
Long live Yellow Dog!
Ashleigh: coming from a complete cinephile, this is the one ⤴️
I have a feeling that Ashleigh would enjoy another John Candy film, "Delirious", in which he plays a writer and is centered around a Soap Opera. Underappreciated Gem (if my memory serves....its been a while). Of course, in that vein, Soap Dish would be another great Soap Opera based film to see a reaction to.
I loved that movie as a kid havent seen it in years. So good.
YES! YES! YES!
The bald bear was played by Bart, who was probably the most famous bear in Hollywood. He was in movies, TV, and advertising in the '70s, '80s and '90s, before succumbing to cancer in 2000. Every human actor who played alongside him was impressed by how well he was trained.
Can't wait for Thor Ragnarok!
To add to fun facts about Bart the Bear, he was truly massive! Stood at a height of 9 ft 7.5 in (293 cm) and weighed 1,500 lb (680 kg)! And crazy enough, he appeared in the 70th Academy Awards on stage as part of a salute to animal actors and "handing" Mike Myers the envelope. You can can find the clip of it here on RUclips.
Bart's greatest role is in The Edge! But all of his movies are wonderful! :D
Bart even became friends with Jennifer Aniston. She would visit his owner and they would roll around on the grass together.
Another great comedy, "Spies Like Us!" No John Candy, but Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase. It's one of my favs. Very quotable and enjoyable.
Just watched a reaction to that last night.
Doctor.
@@arisucheddar3097 Doctor.
@@RossWrock Doctor!
Doctor
"Did you know raccoons purr?" Yes.
"Did you know they don't produce their own spit?" Yes.
That's why they "wash" their food. It's not a hygienic thing, it's to make up for a lack of salivary glands.
Annette Benning who played Dan Aykroyd's wife (spin cycle) is a fantastic actress in so many films. Grifters is my favorite with John Cusack and Angelica Huston. ❤️❤️❤️
I love the scene with the 96'er when Dan asks if he can also get a dessert down him will they throw in some hats for the kids? Then you see them leaving and the kids are wearing hats.
Haha, yeah. I always point out that bit cuz its so quick and subtle, you can easily miss it through your laughter.
If you truly love John Candy you must watch "Only The Lonely" it has his best performance and features Maureen O' Hara John Wayne's wife in the "Quiet Man". I dislike most Rom-Com's but I love this film.
She saw her in miracle on 34th st. And loved her.
Very underrated film. Maureen O'Hara was awesome in that one. Love Only the Lonely.
Loved that one as a kid. lol
Only then Lonely is great. You'll buy Candy as a romantic lead.
@@brianstraight9308 Hey she said he could get it.
I love that you're finally going to watch "Clerks." It's my favorite movie of all time! Have fun with the editing hahaha.
One of my fave movies growing up. When they’re chasing the bat, you can see Dan Akroyd hiding behind the staircase counting to 3 and then they all run back out. 😂
"Go find yourself a spin-cycle!" Is a fav "insult" my crew still uses to this day. If we use it in public and someone laughs, 90% chance we're gunna be friends
hello friend lol I use that insult any chance I can get cause it's hilarious and I think I've only met one other person who knew what it was from
@@AbsoluteApril Epic. This opens the door to Ghostbusters, Caddyshack, even Fletch for the connoisseur... 🤜🤛 🍻
I loved John Candy in "Who's Harry Crumb?" It's a comedy where he plays a private investigator in search of a kidnapped heiress.
Not sure how popular it was when it came out (I loved it), but I don't see it mentioned much.
I think you'd like it, though, Ashleigh.
I love "Who's Harry Crumb". The disguises, the physical comedy, it's all great.
@@brandonvaughn7255 YES! Such an under rated film, I hope she watches it!!!!!!
That's my favorite John Candy flick 🤣😂🤣...also the principal from Ferris beuler's Day off
Who's Harry Crumb is my favorite John Candy film also. It was my wife and Myself's feel good film for a long time.
It's a better Pink Panther movie than quite a few of the _actual_ Pink Panther movied.
I may have told the story before, but I'll tell it again.
Some years ago, I was an extra on an episode of ENG, and John Candy turned up on the set. He wasn't in the episode or anything, he was probably there just to see someone. Anyway, while he was there, he came down to the cafeteria and kind of held court, surrounded by all the extras and bit players. He was a funny, charming guy, and really the only celebrity I ever met who FELT like a celebrity.
When I heard he had died, I was stunned. He was such a nice guy, such a character and so well loved by everyone. RIP John.
Ashleigh wants candy. John Candy that is. 😁 Funnily enough, my aunt, uncle and cousin had a similar experience to the bat thing. But it wasn’t on vacation, it was at their house! Thankfully, it was a just a bird not a bat.
I miss John Candy more than any comedian who's passed on ☹
Robin Williams?
George Carlin. He did more comedy specials BUT the times he showed up in movies were hilarious af.
Of course, Robin Williams, do I bother explaining?!
Chris Farley.
The best Blues Brother Jim.
Willie Wonka Gene.
Richard Pryor
Bernie Mac
I can keep going. There's so, so, SO MANY awesome comedians that were actors too. Hell, Pat Murata, from Karate Kid. Also a comic. Don't get me wrong, John Candy's awesome. He's an 80's favorite for a damned good reason, but there's so, so many.
Me too.
I feel I’m a John candy look alike when I look at myself in the mirror.
Joh Candy, Robin Williams and Alan Rickman. 😭
Actually it can explode, when the nitro glycerin sweats out it creates a sort of crystal and if you throw it it explodes.. so when gelignite is sweating thats not good as it becomes very very unstable
yup it becomes VERY chemically unstable and actually becomes a lot more dangerous.
Yea. Super dangerous once it starts leaching.
Kaboom 💥
I think it's great you felt the need to explain that. You never know who's gonna get the urge to explore old abandoned mines and possibly come across old dynamite. I'm actually being serious. You might have just saved Ashleigh's life. Clearly she needs to read some books and stop watching movies all day.
@@marcoadan1 TBH i got that information from an Episode of MacGuyver LOL. then i did my research and learned a lot more
I was practically yelling at my TV "post-credits sequence with the raccoons!"
Ashleigh: I've broken my arms six times.
Also Ashleigh: How can you get hurt on the water?
Mystery solved.
Only the Lonely is an underrated classic. Not many people saw it because they couldn't buy John Candy as a romantic lead in a rom-com. What a shame. I think you would love it.
John Candy was brilliant as Danny Muldoon in "Only the Lonely"
No, not a classic. If not many people saw it, that is the opposite of a classic.
I think it would become her new favorite John Candy movie.
@@BDogg2023 there are a lot of movies that didn't do well when they were released, but eventually found a large audience. Hopefully only the Lonely finds the audience it deserves
@@frednich9603 😂
"You wouldn't know a good time if it fell out of the sky, landed on your face, and started to wiggle!" ... One of my favorite movie lines.
Our miniature southern bandit pandas don't get the love they deserve in the world. They're just misunderstood. Great reaction!!!
So glad you watched this! One of my childhood faves. Another film with A LOT of comedians is HARLEM NIGHTS
starring Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, Red Fox, Robin Harris, Charlie Murphy & Della Reese.
I get my mouth all ready for some orange juice and there's only one swallow left in the container.
@@UtopiaTX LOL! When Della Reese calls Benny (Red Fox) the "stupidest MF-er in captivity" I lose it every time.
If you want to hear John Candy in a more surreal role, try watching "Heavy Metal." It's one of those weirdly addictive cult animated films, but he fits in so well with his part.
You are now John Candy of Gor!!!
Heavy Metal also has one of the best movie sooudtracks ever.
Not only John Candy, but other SCTV stars also such as Eugene Levy, Joe Flaherty & Harold Ramis. Also, it's parts, he voices three characters 🙂
She won't like Heavy Metal.
@@blagoyavichrod why not?
Loved this movie! You should also try to watch "Summer Rental" with John Candy. A feel-good, summer movie with plenty of JC laughs.
I liked "Summer Rental" better than this one.
@@creech54 Ditto.
Came here to say this
I use to watch this movie as a child with my grandmother. She is no longer with us. I had a great time doing that with her. I miss doing that with her. I called her Nanny.
If you want more simple 80s Comedies, I'd recommend:
- Weekend at Bernie's (1989)
- Twins (1988)
- Inner Space (1987)
Bernie's is a little on the dark side. Not sure it's up Ashleigh's alley.
@@glenerickson358 Dark Side?... It ain’t Star Wars! 🤪😂
A great opportunity was missed when nobody put John Candy, Steve Martin, AND Robin William's together in the same movie!
That's too much awesome, the universe would break.
Steve and Robin did a stage play together in the late 80s, Sam Beckett's "Waiting For Godot", it was made into a movie in 2001 but not with them. They sold out the Lincoln Theatre for every show.
The thing about Robin is he steals the show. Literally. He will and always dominates the situation. Carson had him and teo other comedians on, and he literally took over and became the center of attention. That's his nature.
Yeah, Ashleigh needs to see "Little Shop of Horrors" since she has already seen the only other film Steve and John did together.
Also pretty impossible for me to imagine Robin and Jim Carey together in a movie, they’d never be able to get through a scene before the crazy took over!
He is missed... So much fun... I was a studio guide at Universal for years and passing this massive cabin was always one of my favorite moments...
I loved that part of the tour. Open space that weirdly didn’t fit within the tour.
Ashleigh...your raccoons actually have a post credits scene. Keep watching! Might be the first post credits scene ever🤔
Keep watching because she did see it.
Miss John Candy. RIP
One of my brother in laws picked John up from the Vancouver airport back in the late 80's and he was a very nice guy.
I haven't seen this movie in years.
John Candy and Dan Aykroyd are both legendary funny men and great Canadians 🍁
My favorite John Candy movie is Delirious. Adorable and funny movie about a soap opera writer who ends up in his own story. It's great
And Sally Field and Kevin Kline are among an all star cast.
@@thomasmcintosh390 Oh I love Soapdish too!!!!
I got confused, sorry. It was about a soap opera too though.
You're Robert Wagner!
me too!
This Reaction is one of the MANY FINE reasons why I keep coming back here every time you post a reaction! SO fun, so Genuine so INTERACTIVE! Thank you for YOU Ashleigh!
Oh good lord! I was a kid at Bass Lake watching this being filmed. The scene where his son goes to the A&W, watched all the takes. It's an ice cream shop, or was, but never was an A&W. I need to drive back up to see what all is there today. I remember Hollywood took over the entire beach area we hung out at. Bass Lake was never the same after unfortunately. You got my respect for liking John Candy and Dan Akroyd and John Hughes! Also, you have beautiful hair and a Golden Girls cup, I'm subscribed after this viewing!
I always have to laugh when Ashleigh is shocked by the films from the 80s! It was a different time. 😆
I was a young teen when my Mom took my sister and I to this movie. We had such a great time! The bear scene in the end had the whole theater just rolling and we were to. Just a happy childhood moment I wanted to share. Love it, and nostalgic for me.
Summer Rental along with Armed and Dangerous are John Candy's most underrated movies IMO.
Lots of fun and Meg Ryan is sooooo young in that!
Summer rental soon funny
I agree with summer rental
Summer Rental is amazing
Ashleigh, your timing is perfect. "I wonder if we're gonna see the bald bear again."
But my favorite scene is the water skiing.
When it comes to dynamite, if exposed to moisture these detonators can produce an explosive gas and the slightest change in environment can cause degradation in less than one hour leading to an extremely dangerous situation. Also, on top of that, old dynamite is dangerous because over time it can become unstable and an explosion can happen even without the use of a blasting cap.
Another great John Candy movie that you'll love is "Summer Rental". So funny!
I just got back two days ago from a family vacation just like this, my dad is Chet and my uncle is Roman. This is hilarious, I can't believe I never noticed it before.
Another John Candy classic, is 'Summer Rental'. Highly recommend it!
you buy leeches at the bait store in Minnesota. They are used to fish for Walleye Pile, a very tasty fish. They attach if you let them. Usually, they attach to a finger or thumb while you put them on the hook.
Lucy Deakins who played Buck's love interest was also in "The Boy Who Could Fly". Great movie and awesome story.
Oh man, I forgot all about that movie -- I loved it!
I love that film, I was obsessed with it for a minute when it came out.
Only just realised her father is the great Roger Deakins
I had to look her up, she's no longer acting but she is a lawyer now looks like maybe she was in college when she was acting
That’s still one of my favorite movies. I loved the story, both Lucy and Bonnie Bedelia were cute as heck, and Fred Gwynn & Louise Fletcher were unexpected treats.
I remember thinking this was the most hysterical movie ever as a kid. We used to rent it often, the raccoons were my favorite. I almost can't watch it anymore just because it doesn't quite hold up to my childhood recollection of it, though I still can appreciate it for the time period it was made and all that. And I will always love John Candy in everything he did.
Of the 80s comedies you haven't gotten to yet, "Fast Times at Ridgemont High," "Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure," "Adventures in Babysitting," & "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" are the best, IMHO. Wow, it just occurred to me how many 80s comedy titles include the word "Adventure" in them. 😆
Great list! I would add Spies Like Us, Midnight Madness, and Nothing but Trouble as great cheesy 80's comedies.
Pee Wee's Big Adventure is sincerely one of the funniest movies ever made, especially if you saw it as a kid and re-watch as an adult.
Have you seen "The Zany Adventures of Robin Hood" with Morgan Fairchild and Tom Baker? (Yes, Doctor Who!)
I love this movie! One of the many vhs we loved to rent at the library. Golden stuff. Happy you enjoyed!
Recommend:
Innerspace
The Sting
The Darjeeling Limited
Growing up in Alabama we used to catch fireflies and tie strings to their legs and fly them around like our own personal kites.
Here we go!! Time for some more comedy!!! Ashleigh is laughing A LOT lately, which means we've got tears and screams coming, too!!
Can't have Sunshine without Rain.
I need more screams, hallobeans can’t come fast enough
The Great Outdoors and Summer Rental are my favorite John Candy movies.
Same!!
Absolute +1 on Summer Rental
The bear was named Bart. There's a documentary about him. It's beautiful and heartbreaking. RIP Bart.
the majority of The Great Outdoors was filmed at Bass Lake. The Cabin was built for the movie and still stands to this day. One of my daughters works for the company that rents it out and I used to work for a lumber company that displays the blueprints signed by some of the cast and crew (including John Candy, Dan Aykroyd and John Hughes among them) hanging on the wall behind the counter.
You should add Volunteers to your list. Highly underrated comedy IMO with John Candy and Tom Hanks.
VOLUNTEERS…. It’s a all time FOREVER CLASSIC!!! Such a great movie! Love that Tom Hanks is also in cast. Which is an amazing bonus for me cause I loved them together in SPLASH! Yasss please add VOLUNTEERS to the reaction list! You won’t be disappointed! 🤗😎👍🏼☮️
25:56 - Ashleigh, it absolutely kills be that you just casually sing along with various songs in various movies, and your voice is *so beautiful!* ❤
I have always loved John Candy. Wagons East, his last movie, made me laugh so hard in the theater that I almost had to get up and leave because I think I was bothering other people.
Ashleigh's facial reactions are a whole nother level of impeccable.
Fun Fact: In the scene where they come back to the cabin after Chet eats the steak, when he runs to vomit and his family follows, you can see Dan count 1, 2, 3 in the background and then everyone runs out of the cabin.
Glad you caught the end credit scene! As a kid I also loved the racoon scenes so much!
End credit scenes before end credit scenes were cool. lol
Wow, haven't seen this movie in YEARS. Such a treat to see the edited version. I ate three hot dogs today. Dan was busy with Ghostbusters II that year. This was Annette Bening's film debut. More John Candy--The Blues Brothers, Cool Runnings, Canadian Bacon, Wagons East, Boris And Natasha, Once Upon A Crime..., JFK, Delirious, Only The Lonely, Nothing But Trouble, The Rescuers Down Under as Wilbur, The Rocket Boy, Speed Zone, Who's Harry Crumb?, Little Shop Of Horrors, Armed And Dangerous, Dave Thomas: The Incredible Time Travels Of Henry Osgood, Volunteers, Summer Rental, Follow That Bird, Brewster's Millions, The Last Polka, Going Berserk, Stripes, Double Negative, 1941, Lost And Found, The Silent Partner, Tunnel Vision, It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time. RIP John. There you go Ashleigh; your patrons can vote on his next movie. Movie suggestion: The Boy Who Could Fly with Lucy Deakins (in this film), Fred Savage, Bonnie Bedelia, Colleen Dewhurst, Fred Gwynn, and Jay Underwood.
Cool Runnings with John Candy is a MUST for sure!! Next patron poll, keep the John Candy love rolling!
For more Dan Aykroyd, watch "Dragnet"! Also starring a very young Tom Hanks! Hilarious! Also watch Dan in "Doctor Detroit"!
PAGAN= People against Goodness and normalcy. Definitely a fitting movie for these times!
I worked for 22 years as a pest control technician, and one of the weirdest calls I ever got was a bat that was roosting in a customer's recessed lighting. I had to use one of those claw things people use to pick stuff up when they're too infirm to bend down, and a drawstring bag to contain it while I took it outside. Very strange episode.
Also, I hate to burst your Raccoon Love Bubble, but raccoons are the soccer hooligans of the animal kingdom. They break stuff and make messes just because they can and they don't care.
Also, Raccoon Love Bubble is the name of my Pussy Riot cover band.
In the scene where John Candy barfs, you can see Dan Akroyd countdown to have everyone come back running. I saw it as a kid and can never unsee it. 😀
When I was 7 we were caretakers on a farm, there were bats in one of the barns and my older brother & I convinced our younger brother that vampires lived in the barn. He's been terrified of bats and barns ever since, even little sheds that look like barns.
"Where you two little gremlins going?" 😆 🤣 😂 that was funny. I came up with this movie as a kid 😆 one of my favs. Keep up the terrific work 👌 👏 👍
So glad you were finally able to watch this! This was one of the films my sisters and I would watch together as kids. It's a classic in our household!
I love Summer Rental, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Spaceballs, Only the Lonely, Delirious, Splash, Volunteers, The Great Outdoors, Armed and Dangerous, and Cool Runnings with John Candy
This movie touches on so many things about going on vacation in the northwoods. Every summer our family went to northern Wisconsin in the 60's through the 80's. We did the bears at the dump, the restaurant which in real life was called Paul Bunyans, as a teenager there always seemed to be someone you might call a summer love whether it was a local or someone else at the resort and going fishing early in the morning. The trash cans all had the latching lids to keep the racoons out.
I'd like to recommend Adventures in Babysitting - perfect millennial movie, Thor is even in it!!!
And the Kingpin.
Thor/Private Pyle.
"They didn't have any faces!"
"O my gawd!"
"Nothing?"
"Just a pool of mushy goo!"
"Like Spaghetti-Os?"
""Like Spaghetti-Os with MEAT!"
Great movie! Elizabeth Shue is underrated.
NOT Chris Hemsworth... just so she's not confused lol
John Candy is my favorite actor. Cool Runnings is another great movie of his.
And he also has a small cameo in Little Shop of Horrors (1986) (Theatrical cut). It stars Rick Moranis and has Steve Martin in his greatest-ever role. You'll seriously love his singing and dancing. HOWEVER, there is one thing about the movie I suspect you'll hate and be unable to ignore the whole time.
I think she is going to watch LSH in October
@@brianhammond2832 no, it needs to be the 23rd day of September. Perfect movie before the start of Hallobeans!
On the twenty-third day of the month of September
In an early year of a decade not too long before our own
The human race suddenly encountered a deadly threat to its very existence
And this terrifying enemy surfaced, as such enemies often do
In the seemingly most innocent and unlikely of places
Little shop, little shop of horrors
Little shop, little shop of terror
Call a cop, little shop of horrors
No, oh-oh-oh, no-oh
@@brianhammond2832 That'd be great! hopefully it's not the "director's cut"
@@boshooda No, it ought to be that version, it's the closest version we have to Frank Oz's vision.
@@christopherwall2121 nope, the director's cut just doesn't work for so many reasons. The theatrical version is the way to go. Of course, the deleted scenes are interesting to watch on their own since so much work went into them.
I really do recommend Wagons East, it's John's last film, and it is great. There are some awesome jokes in it that fit right in with your sense of humor.
Funny little blooper in this movie: in one camera shot when the bear is standing on top of the door, the bottom left corner of the screen includes a person waving a stick. That's the bear's trainer signaling to the bear what to do. 🤣
This is both classic John Hughes and classic John Candy. I love this move! So freaking funny! Love this reaction Ashleigh!
1941 is another one with john candy, dan Ackroyd in not as main chars but ;) its a fun film
This is my favorite childhood movie! We live in central Wisconsin. We would start it everytime in the car and watch it on our way up north for vacation. It would start at our house and end when we were passing Paul Bunion's in Minocqua.
One of the great 80’s comedies i still love to revisit now and never seems to get old.
I love this movie. I didn't get to see it until it came out on VHS, when I was 12. My little 12 year old self loved every minute of this movie,
and I still do to this day.
Same! Been watching it on and off every summer since I was 5! Love this movie.
@@pumkinheadfanvhsforever6087 same
Wow this movie was a huge part of my 80’s childhood!
Ashleigh's comment about "something you keep in a drawer" reminded me how young she is. At the time this movie was made, those kinds of things were illegal to sell in much of the country, and the kind of places that DID sell them were incredibly sketchy to say the least. There are still places where those things are illegal. Looking at you Alabama.
Yeah places like where Peewee Herman was caught 😁
John Candy did a romcom film a couple years before he died with Ally Sheedy called "Only The Lonely". It's really good and shows more of what a good actor he was.
The Great Outdoors is one of the top 20 comedies of all time in my book. So many great scenes that are hilarious.
Ashleigh, leaches are great catfish or bass bait and stay alive on the hook for hours. If they latch on to your finger or hand while putting it on the hook they pull right off pretty easy and actually take a long time to draw any blood. Also old dynamite will drip nitroglycerine which can ignite just by a drop falling on the ground, its extremely dangerous.
Thank you sooo much for reacting to this movie. I’ve been waiting for this one.
Fun fact, the restaurant where the Old 96er was filmed is a real restaurant. But I’m not sure if they offer a 96oz steak on the menu. 😄. Although John Candy was the kind of person who would eat something like that.
"Have you ever seen whiter whites?"
Ashley's mind was blown. I could see her thinking about possibly doing some laundry quite soon!!!lol
This movie proves that polls arent everything. If you love John Candy, you should watch more John Candy. (start with Only the Lonely, and then Cool Runnings)
Wagons East was another great John Candy movie and also his last. PS. Old dynamite sweats pure nitroglycerine and a good bump will cause it to explode.
Canadian Bacon came out after Wagon's East but I think was filmed before Wagon's East. Both are great underrated Candy movies.
@@markwilliams6394 I believe John Candy died on the set of Wagons East. And yes Canadian Bacon was funny but maybe I'm in the minority but I liked Wagons East more.
I said it was filmed before Wagon's East just came out after it. I think it went straight to VHS. They held up the release cuz he had died. I prefer Wagon's East more but both are funny.
"Bart the bear" was in a lot of movies and TV shows and was indeed a big boy at 1,779lbs and 9 foot, 7 inches tall. In case anyone is wondering, they didn't shave him, he's wearing a prosthetic rubber butt.
24:23 'Exit, pursued by bear' - Stage direction from Shakespeare's 'The Winter's Tale'.
I like the way they had the bear in the credits!
I'm sorry, but to capture all of the Shakespeare-y goodness of that sentence, I simply must insist we refrain from modernizing the original Elizabethan English. *clears throat*
Exeunt, pursued by a bear.
Now, let the hysterics commence. 😁
Whoever chose Clerks, good call. I hope you keep her in the Kevin Smith universe for a while!
Agreed
Great movie! My brother and I took our dad to see this in the theatre for Fathers Day when it came out, and since they’re both no longer with us, this movie has a lot of sentimental value to me. I definitely had a thing for Cammie, and I don’t know if she went on to be in anything else. I’ve tried the 96 oz steak challenge a couple times because of this movie, and it’s even harder than it looks. Kinda surprised you didn’t notice Fred Savage from The Wonder Years, and this was also Annette Bening’s first big movie. Thanks for sharing.
She was in the Boy Who Could Fly.
@@zerubbabelsbridge thanks. I wasn't aware of that movie
The reason she didn't notice Fred Savage is because Fred Savage isn't in this movie, the kid's name is Ian Giatti.
@@deraykrause4517 whoops. My bad. Should've looked it up before I posted
@@ianfeuerhake1859 haha no worries. I haven't seen this movie since it first came out, and in my mind I remembered Fred being in it. Watching her review I was thinking to myself, wow did something happen to Fred's face? I had to IMDB that sh!t before I realized what was going on. 🤣
Thanks so much for the laughs today. My Monday has been rough but when I saw you posted this movie I knew things were looking up🤗
Omg I laughed so hard during your reaction 🤣
I forgot a lot about this movie and I didn't remember that it was Dan who was the ass. So often John plays the annoying character. So funny! Love both John and Dan.
This was one of my dads favorite movies when I was a kid so we watched it a lot. So many jokes went over my head as a kid that finally clicked when I went back and watched it as an adult (the vodka joke lol). Apparently John Hughs always had to have a teen romance in his scripts which, looking back at it now, explains why that story felt a bit forced/weird.
I strongly recommend "War Games" and "Ladyhawke".
Sprinkle some salt on a stubborn leech, it'll come right off. Mostly, they just pull off. I came up for a time in Minnesota. We'd wade in to the water to get leeches on our legs then step out of the water and take them off and use them as bait for fishing.
After seeing the leeches scene i gotta absolutely recommend stand by me. Such a classic.
