Idk, I felt like the great outdoors wasn’t as good as people remember. Weird thing, we found polaroids of John Candy and Dan Akyroyd on the set of the great outdoors, in the basement in Michigan.
"You're trying to watch The Smurfs? Did you see the one where Papa Smurf took a crutch and smashed the shit out of a guy with a red hat? Did ya see that one? You wanna see that one?" Classic scene. Loved this movie since I was a kid.
I loved it when Richard Crenna's character signed the deed to the rental house on the coffin at the former landlord's funeral. He literally took over his dead body.
"We name vessels after women to remind us to treat them gently like ladies; otherwise, they won't respond like ladies. So, remember, always gentle on the the tiller."
I don’t understand how so few people have heard of this movie, particularly over here in the UK. Physical copies were always so hard to get hold of, so this was the main reason I got a VOD service several years ago, just purely to check out this film. It did not disappoint. My second favourite Candy film after Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
My parents went vacationing in Sweden and they rented Summer Rental because it was the only VHS they could find that was in English. They’re glad they did!
I watched 9 John Candy movies, that I never watched, after your video. Summer Rental included. I was already a fan, since I watch Planes, Trains & Automobiles every Thanksgiving (although we don't have such a thing here in Brazil). Thanks!
you prolly dont care but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account..? I was dumb lost the password. I love any tricks you can give me.
Rip Torn taught me how to fish as a kid, and it warms my heart whenever I hear anyone speak well of him. He was a wonderful actor, and a real character.
@The Anthropologist _Forensic he should definitely talk about both movies, and maybe his third movie "How I got into College", it was pretty, but not as good.
Yes, absolutely. "One Crazy Summer" is a great almost cult classic and I'd love to see it get a video! John Cusack, Bobcat Goldthwait, a *very* young Demi Moore, Joe Flaherty, Rich Hall, and Rich Little and more are all in it - what a cast! (And "Better Off Dead" also deserves a video while we're at it.)
I watched this movie for the first time ages ago when it was on Netflix and loved it. I don't understand why it doesn't get as much love as John Candy's other movies like Uncle Buck or Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
i watch this once every year in the summer. an enjoyable relaxing afternoon flick. Sometimes though I felt the film goes a bit of a complete different direction when it became about the boat race. And how it just ends on such a complete stop leaves me little bit off.
That Jimmy Buffet song was never released on any album, and the movie didn't get a soundtrack release, so it's really hard to find. Also, Rip Torn: Crazy like a diesel powered toothbrush, but alwas so good!
I've watched Summer Rental SIX TIMES since April this year....including just last night. It's just so easy to watch. Rip Torn is just too good in this film as well. One of my favorite actors and probably my favorite performance.
Rip Torn IS hugely underrated. I never remember his name (or rather I never remember that's who Rip Torn is). Whenever I hear it, I think of Rip Taylor. With his voice, he should've been called like Remington Bronsky or something. That's a name.
While not as good as Planes, Trains, and Automobiles and Uncle Buck, this is a must watch every summer. Love being at the beach I go to every year and watching this on a rainy day.
I LOVE this movie, I had a tiny old TV with a vhs player and I watched this on repeat for days. Love Rip Torn in this, and John Candy is legendary as always. So many great scenes, truly underrated.
Thank you for this great RUclips channel. The way you talk about actors like John Candy and the Three Stooges, its so loving. John Candy really was that celebrity that everyone loved like a best friend. There's nobody else like him.
This movie will always have a special place in my heart because it brings back many memories. Every summer before going on vacation, it was our tradition in my house to watch this movie lol. One year in particular, to this day, we call our Summer Rental summer because the whole week we were in Wildwood (New Jersey), it rained and rained. The very last day we were there was the only sunny day we got, so we spent hours on the beach and got sunburned like crazy. Then on the ride home, one of the back tires on the car blew and we were stuck on the side of the road about 15 miles away from the exit for Philadelphia (where we lived). During those days, cellphones weren't something everyone owned, so we had to try to use the emergency call box on the side of the highway. We found out later that the reason the call box didn't work was because it was struck by lighting a few days earlier. We were sitting there waiting for hours. Thankfully a cop that was driving by spotted us and he called in a tow truck for us. He was the one who told us about why the call box was damaged. It's such a funny story that we love reminiscing about lol.
Well, it's 2 years later and I finally got around to watching Summer Rental. You were right! It was a lot of fun. John Candy was so likeable and believable, as always. The supporting cast was also fine, especially Rip Torn as Cap'n Scully, and Richard Crenna as the infinitely boo-hiss-able Mr Pellet. Thanks again for showcasing these gems for us, Joe.
Whenever I come across Summer Rental while going through the channels, I always stop and watch. I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite, but it’s entertaining and a bit of a flashback to the 80’s. I would definitely list it in my favorite John Candy movies behind Planes, Trains & Automobiles and Uncle Buck.
my all time favorite John Candy movie. I loved him in everything he did but this movie was such great feel good family movie. also, one of my favorite Rip Torn movies ever.
Thanks for re-introducing this film to me. I'm 59 and had forgotten about this. You should be producing trailers for Hollywood. The fact that you sound fairly young and appreciate these movies gives me hope.
I discovered your videos two weeks ago, I can say that this has quite possibly become my favourite RUclips channel of all. Thank you for all the work you put into it, Mr. Ramoni.
I'm surprised that you never covered the missing scenes! I saw it on cable in a motel room in Florida and they have cut out the part where Archie Farts in the overloaded car and many more such as Archie chews on the couch leg down to almost nothing and when the owners are sitting on it after Archie and family leave, the couch collapses down on the floor
This is one of those movies if I am having a bad day, like the Jimmy Buffet song, can turn it around. Favorite part is the scene where the daughter says I wet my bed and Candy responds, "No, you wet their bed." Gets a laugh out of me every time. Also, Rip Torn was excellent in this film. Out of a lot of great performances from him, this is one of my favorites. Love your channel btw. Especially bringing light to these little known films. As well as honoring the great John Candy.
This is to me the best John Candy Film, ever, my favorite scene is on the beach when he says you can't win them all, and the daughter says, but one one would be nice. and he responds yesd one would be nice. that's when it reached me and many others who would just like to win once.
DEFINITELY A CLASSIC. I have loved this movie since I saw it in the theater as a junior in high school in 85. I watched it with my kids. They are grown and I have 2 grandkids. Candy was so funny. He could take simple life and turn it into a hilarious entertainment. We lost a great one there. RIP John! We still love you!
Alright, it's kinda ironic that we're remembering this fun and relatable film since you use the VHS images. And I remember the beach house realization scene. Keep it up and stay safe!
Dude I am loving this channel, being born in the late 80s I grew up on films and you’re capturing a genre of movies I’ve been exposed to and enjoyed but didn’t quite stick into adulthood. This is what makes it “Almost.” It’s a treat returning to some of these films BUT this video actually made me want to see this film and it turned out to be on HBO Max, I’m just enjoying it as a fun escape movie and it really has just enough subtle charm to enjoy. Nostalgic movies galore!
I had the pleasure of seeing this in the theater when I was a kid! This film is full of wonderful character actors, a genuinely relatable story, some great scenery and tons of laughs and heart! I could watch this any time, honestly!
I live in this part of Florida (actually moved here in 1985) and everything about this movie is so accurate, from the "Road" vs "Lane" (because the same street names are used over and over, no originality) to the "beach access" going right through rental properties to the con artists that are all over St. Pete Beach. This is about as Florida a movie as you can find.
I'm glad someone brought this film up. I think it's largely forgotten these days. I first saw it on a summer day inside about 10 years ago and was completely unaware of it before then. It holds up as well as his classics like Uncle Buck.
I discovered this movie on some random channel when I was a kid, probably at 1 am. Anyone who grew up in the 80's and was a night owl had the same experience. You'd find a movie you never heard of with some familiar faces and decide to see where it went. It's not like there was anything else to do. I discovered Going Berserk the same way. Being so young, I didn't think much of either movie despite being a John Candy fan, but I've grown to appreciate them over the years.
Another movie that was replayed on cable around the same time as this movie was Funny Farm. Classic Chevy chase, it's a great watch and a good fit for your channel.
I think the scene where John Candy is trying to find his wife on the incredibly crowded beach, is just on of the funniest moments in this film! And overall it really is a sweet & funny film!
I love this movie. It somehow escaped me even though my siblings and I were obsessed with John Candy, but his performance in this was so good. The “get out of my house” scene almost gave me a heart attack the first time I saw it.
we just had a debate on my karaoke stream about the name of this movie. i remembered the plot, the barnacles, the restaurant, the pirate, the pants on the sail...they were saying the great outdoors, but i knew that wasn't right! thanks for clearing it up.
I love this movie, I remember I first saw this airing only once on Nick@Nite. I would see this again whenever I get the chance mostly on AMC. I currently have the film on Prime Video but I don't want to see this now because winter is a really weird time to watch a summer movie, so I'm waiting when it is actually summer or at least spring to watch it unless the film is removed before then, damn those streaming apps.
I watched Summer Rental, as well as The Great Outdoors, this week.
Planes, Trains and Automobiles is Candy's best movie IMHO. However, The Great Outdoors is just awesome too.
@@dats3 PTA will always be my favorite movie.
It is hard to top PTA. I really like who's harry crumb as well!
Great outdoors, can't get enough of that flick
Idk, I felt like the great outdoors wasn’t as good as people remember. Weird thing, we found polaroids of John Candy and Dan Akyroyd on the set of the great outdoors, in the basement in Michigan.
"You're trying to watch The Smurfs? Did you see the one where Papa Smurf took a crutch and smashed the shit out of a guy with a red hat? Did ya see that one? You wanna see that one?" Classic scene. Loved this movie since I was a kid.
Ryan Spengler But...Papa Smurf WAS the one with the red hat!
To this day, when anyone I know gets a horrible sunburn I refer to it as a good base
@@neutron5000 You gotta do these things in stages.
My favorite was “Archie, get your ass up here right now!”
@@j.p.1214 Go try. I want to see you're brains splattered all over the street on the news
I loved it when Richard Crenna's character signed the deed to the rental house on the coffin at the former landlord's funeral. He literally took over his dead body.
Can I get a little room here please?
"We name vessels after women to remind us to treat them gently like ladies; otherwise, they won't respond like ladies. So, remember, always gentle on the the tiller."

Uncle Buck is also nice
My parents went vacationing in Sweden and they rented Summer Rental because it was the only VHS they could find that was in English. They’re glad they did!
This ISN'T a cult classic?!? I never knew!
Right?
I was a little shocked this wasn't considered one too. I love this movie.
It is to me.
Summer Rental, The Great Outdoors and Jaws are the quintessential summer films for me every year since I was a kid. Rest in Peace John Candy.
Throw Meatballs in there and it's my yearly summer viewing as well.
I watched 9 John Candy movies, that I never watched, after your video. Summer Rental included.
I was already a fan, since I watch Planes, Trains & Automobiles every Thanksgiving (although we don't have such a thing here in Brazil).
Thanks!
Bom ver outro brasileiro por aqui.
What were the 9?
you prolly dont care but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb lost the password. I love any tricks you can give me.
@Davis Lawrence instablaster :)
Rip Torn taught me how to fish as a kid, and it warms my heart whenever I hear anyone speak well of him. He was a wonderful actor, and a real character.
I discovered this film long after John died.
Not many Aussies know it as well as say Uncle Buck and The Great Outdoors, but it's arguably as good!
Another good Summer movie would definitely be "One Crazy Summer", it also ends with a boat race.
@The Anthropologist _Forensic he should definitely talk about both movies, and maybe his third movie "How I got into College", it was pretty, but not as good.
Hell yes. John Cusak I think ruled the 80's as well.
@@allright I totally loved that movie. I watched that so many times forgetting that it was an 80s classic. And I thought it was a 90s classic.
Yes, absolutely. "One Crazy Summer" is a great almost cult classic and I'd love to see it get a video! John Cusack, Bobcat Goldthwait, a *very* young Demi Moore, Joe Flaherty, Rich Hall, and Rich Little and more are all in it - what a cast! (And "Better Off Dead" also deserves a video while we're at it.)
Have you ever noticed that people die in alphabetical order?
Anytime anybody asks about a song or a story my mom used to tell me, I bust out The Love Boat theme and watch people just stare lol thank you. Love it
We have a new boat for the race!
What boat?
The Barnacle!
Dad, you're going to sail a *restaurant?*
I watched this movie for the first time ages ago when it was on Netflix and loved it. I don't understand why it doesn't get as much love as John Candy's other movies like Uncle Buck or Planes, Trains, and Automobiles.
i watch this once every year in the summer. an enjoyable relaxing afternoon flick. Sometimes though I felt the film goes a bit of a complete different direction when it became about the boat race. And how it just ends on such a complete stop leaves me little bit off.
Another "Almost Cult Classic" by Reiner: "Summer School." One of the only on-camera roles for Richard Horivitz.
What about The Informant or Get Street Smart: A Kid's Guide To Stranger Dangers?
Summer School is great!
Summer School was one of my favorites of all time. I must have watched it 100 times on Starz back in the day.
Horvitz is in here, wow
@Maximus Prime So you'd consider it too popular to be an "almost" cult classic?
That Jimmy Buffet song was never released on any album, and the movie didn't get a soundtrack release, so it's really hard to find.
Also, Rip Torn: Crazy like a diesel powered toothbrush, but alwas so good!
*Turnin' Around* I love that song!
@@dnasty312 Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of his, but that specific song I love!
The only Jimmy Buffett song I can stand. It’s a real toe tapper.
@@middleschoolgravy Check out his song from Fast Times At Ridgemont High.
The popcorn gag was one of my favourite ones when I watched this film.
And the line "My fault, I should have told them to cook the second egg."
I've watched Summer Rental SIX TIMES since April this year....including just last night. It's just so easy to watch. Rip Torn is just too good in this film as well. One of my favorite actors and probably my favorite performance.
Rip Torn IS hugely underrated. I never remember his name (or rather I never remember that's who Rip Torn is). Whenever I hear it, I think of Rip Taylor. With his voice, he should've been called like Remington Bronsky or something. That's a name.
Very easy to watch. Also great for background noise when doing other stuff.
While not as good as Planes, Trains, and Automobiles and Uncle Buck, this is a must watch every summer. Love being at the beach I go to every year and watching this on a rainy day.
I had a total crush on Kerri Green, who play the teen daughter. Too bad she didn't do more movies back then.
I LOVE this movie, I had a tiny old TV with a vhs player and I watched this on repeat for days. Love Rip Torn in this, and John Candy is legendary as always. So many great scenes, truly underrated.
"Here's a sea ditty me mother taught me..." Rest in Peace Rip Torn.
Thank you for this great RUclips channel. The way you talk about actors like John Candy and the Three Stooges, its so loving.

Great video! Summer Rental is required viewing for me every Summer.
Can i suggest making a video on UHF? It’s a parody movie that stars Weird Al Yankovic. It’s as great as it sounds.
Fun movie
UHF is an ACTUAL Cult Classic, not an Almost...
It really is
@@MichaelGonzalez-hd7kk this.
I love this comment.
my all time favorite John Candy movie. I loved him in everything he did but this movie was such great feel good family movie. also, one of my favorite Rip Torn movies ever.
Rip Torn elevated everything he was in.
I LOVE summer rental. John Candy at his best. I try to watch it once a year.

Thanks, Joe. I don't know why I never watched this movie when I like John Candy so much. So now I will go find and watch it.
Also a topless scene
Did you watch Only the Lonely ? Great performance in that too.
Man you bring back the memories! My 16 year old loves the old ones like John Candy, Bill Murray, Danny Devito and alot more.
I remember watching this on cable in the mid-80s when I was 11 or 12. Rip Torn's performance especially is great.
This has always been my favorite John Candy film (well besides Planes, Trains, and Automobiles of course). So incredibly underrated!
"Summer Rental" specifically reminds me of my family's beach vacations in the '80s.
Wow, I've seen this movie so many times and had no idea Scully was Rip Torn!
This is one of the most charming films I’ve ever seen. Nothing but great talent and good fun.
This is one of my favorite John Candy movies. I grew up watching this movie a lot.
This is to me the best John Candy Film, ever, my favorite scene is on the beach when he says you can't win them all, and the daughter says, but one one would be nice. and he responds yesd one would be nice. that's when it reached me and many others who would just like to win once.

It’s not my yearly tradition to have a john candy marathon in the summer watching this movie and the great outdoors
My daughter and I used to watched this every weekend when she was little for some reason she loved it
Love this channel! This was always on when I was a kid! I've seen it so many times! I wish John Candy was my dad. ❤️
One of my favorite John Candy flicks and filmed in my hometown.
Absolutely love, love, love this movie. Till this day, I laugh so hard when John Candy spills the dog food. Effing hysterical.
You can just leave that sir.
I had the pleasure of seeing this in the theater when I was a kid! This film is full of wonderful character actors, a genuinely relatable story, some great scenery and tons of laughs and heart! I could watch this any time, honestly!

This is an absolute treasure of a channel!
HELL YES my favorite John Candy film!! Probably one of the best soundtracks too…
Summer Rental is the perfect movie to watch on your beach vacation.
I love Summer Rental along with Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, and Uncle Buck. RIP John and Carl Riner together again
I'm glad someone brought this film up. I think it's largely forgotten these days. I first saw it on a summer day inside about 10 years ago and was completely unaware of it before then. It holds up as well as his classics like Uncle Buck.
Ser, in praise of the thumbnail still you picked, we both know only one word will do...
"Perfect."
It's more than almost. I think it is! John Candy was sooo relatable and hilarious!
I discovered this movie on some random channel when I was a kid, probably at 1 am. Anyone who grew up in the 80's and was a night owl had the same experience.

I got to see this in the theater when it came out! I share this movie with folk whenever I can! John Candy love always!
Another movie that was replayed on cable around the same time as this movie was Funny Farm. Classic Chevy chase, it's a great watch and a good fit for your channel.
lol funny you say that I literally took out my copy to watch right before so scrolled down to this comment
@@shelby8364 great movie!
Rip Torn is one of the greatest ever!
Love this film! I think to compliment this film, you should check out/review the camping/cabin equivalent: “The Great Outdoors”
Love this channel. Wish you updated more. I was in tears with the John Candy and Chris Farley reviews.
Lol, Rip Torn singing the Love Boat theme is good.
I love this movie. John Candy in this movie reminds me of my grandfather when me and my cousin used to go on vacation our grandparents.
love john candy sorely missed not only that too i love looking at these old 80s movies miss the 80s was in my 20s then
I think the scene where John Candy is trying to find his wife on the incredibly crowded beach, is just on of the funniest moments in this film! And overall it really is a sweet & funny film!
Another great classic and Rip Torn was absolutely perfect in this movie
I love this movie. It somehow escaped me even though my siblings and I were obsessed with John Candy, but his performance in this was so good. The “get out of my house” scene almost gave me a heart attack the first time I saw it.
One of my favorites and a severely underrated movie along with Nothing but Trouble and The ‘Burbs.
I was there when they filmed and John Candy used to hang out with the spectators. He was a very nice man
we just had a debate on my karaoke stream about the name of this movie. i remembered the plot, the barnacles, the restaurant, the pirate, the pants on the sail...they were saying the great outdoors, but i knew that wasn't right! thanks for clearing it up.
I love this movie. Rip Torn as Scully always made me chuckle.
Such a classic '80s summer movie. Saw it in the theater as a kid.
Loved Summer Rental .. reminds me of a couple summers at Barnegat Light
I love Summer Rental and Volunteers! Summer Rental also features my favorite Jimmy Buffett song!
I love this movie, I remember I first saw this airing only once on Nick@Nite. I would see this again whenever I get the chance mostly on AMC.

Great video! Love John Candy so much
I watched this a bunch as a kid, my neighbor had it recorded off HBO.
I believe I recall Joe Bob Briggs giving credit to Rip Torn as a great character actor.
Summer Rental and The Great Outdoors. I grew up with these movies...
Both Torn and Crenna were terrific.
And both Starred with McQueen in epic movies.
I don't remember which streaming service I watched this on but it was totally at random and I'm glad that I did because it was a very enjoyable film.
