Directed by Chris Columbus, who also did the first two Harry Potters, and the first two Home Alone films. 🎬 And the music was by Howard Shore, who did the Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings trilogies! 🎶
I say Death to Smoochy is his ultimate train-wreck comedic role. Even as much as I love Good Morning Vietnam and Dead Poets Society, Rainbow Randolph was pure humor rather than seriousness through tragedy. Robin being serious is less believable for me, who grew up on his comedy specials. He was a maniac.
9:19: Mags, did you recognize the social worker as Jim Carrey’s secretary in Liar Liar? She’s gotten to work with two actors who are both excellent comedians as well as dramatic actors! 🎭
I used to watch this movie after my parents divorced and after my dad died. It would always make me wish I could rewind time. My parents divorced when I was 7, 6 years later my dad died when I was 13. My mom and step dad separated when I was 30, 5 years later my stepdad died when I was 35.
26:04 "How 'bout a drink?" "Oh. Sure. I'll have what _he's_ having." And _that_ was the underlying mistake. Daniel is an _incredibly_ talented man. He probably could've pulled all this off if he had just stayed _sober._
This is one of the all time family classics, and imo Robin's best movie. It's truly heartfelt and funny, with just enough seriousness to make it hit home for kids and adults. A true cinimatic masterpiece.
"Mrs. Doubtfire" is a true classic and one of my favorites. It is bitter-sweet for me as someone that grew up as the late, great, Robin Williams was rising up. He truly was the g.o.a.t. (greatest of all time) and even the other brilliant actors say that. Robin' mind was so powerful; he was so highly intelligent, and his mind worked super fast for spur-of-the-moment responses, comedy, and even serious acting. I love it with all my heart. But knowing he is gone and seeing him in movies does have a price on my older heart. And me at almost fifty now, and all those years that have melted away and gone by so fast. As Bob Seger sang: "Twenty years; where'd they go?" I should still be a boy in the eighties yet. It should not be 2024. Fly high, Robin Williams. Thank you, Magy, for your positiveness and warm smile. You truly make this world brighter.
This movie is an absolute classic, I remember watching this on VHS tape I was a kid. I watched it so many times it wore the tape out. after all these years this movie still holds up!
Fun fact the scene where Daniel knocked over the mask and it falls out into the street needed 50 takes to get right which was then followed by a hilarious unscripted moment when a large pile of icing fell into the social workers tea because the temperature on set was very hot and caused robins face to melt but he didn't miss a beat and decided to just roll with it while staying in character
Originally the characters were going to get back together at the end, but Robin Williams and Sally Field argued against that as it would give kids with divorced parents in real life false hope
That’s true but also, Hollywood was peddling this disgusting shit. Too many times women always wanna divorce, and the courts are always in their favor. No wonder so many people are single these days because it’s all about what one partner can get from another one, it’s never about trying to be an actual relationship.
It also helps that Miranda's new boyfriend Stu wasn't a villain. As it should be noted that originally he was in the old script. But the director changed this, as he wanted to reassure audiences that the family will be fine, and not taken advantage of, even without Daniel there. Therefore, the script changed Stu’s dialogue to have him only insult Daniel by calling him a loser (which, in hindsight, he probably heard that from Miranda). Therefore Stu serves more as a foil, not a villainous one, but more of what Daniel realizing that Stu's everything Miranda actually wanted, not him. For all the times Daniel says that Miranda and the kids need him, he ignores the fact that his behavior isn’t what they need. The truth of the matter is, HE NEEDS THEM, more than they need him.
Agreed. The only actors I can think of that reminds me of Robin is Zachary Levi and Ryan Reynolds. Dunno why I mentioned this actors but they remind me of him. Ryan with his 4th wall jokes and Zachary and his man-child ways.
@@Disney65Fan uh… no, Ryan Reynolds is nothing like Robin Williams and he’s not even the 3rd of the star that Robin was. Not sure where your head is. Jim Carrey is the only other comedian like Robin, in fact… Jim Carrey surpasses Robin Williams
23:13 "She will fall in love _all_ over again." No, no, Magy. That's not what this movie is about. It's about putting the _family_ back together, not the _marriage._ Stuart's a good man and Miranda has moved on, romantically. The ideal character growth for Daniel is to become a good _father._
33:47 "I honestly didn't even _feel_ the movie, when it ended and I feel like this is such a, maybe, _better_ ending, in a way, because they didn't actually _go_ together, which I was _expecting,_ honestly, but maybe there is a _second_ part but I feel like this is a very _nice_ closure." Further development in the story that puts Daniel and Miranda back together would undermine the point of this movie. At the beginning, Daniel and Miranda, between them, had both a marriage and a family. The events of the movie lead to the end of the marriage and the rest of the events in the movie revolved around Daniel and Miranda (though more Daniel) learning how to coparent. The point is that there's no reason a husband and wife who fall out of love with each other can't continue to get along with any _kids_ they've had, together.
exactly. he doesnt even ever show any interest in his wife, only to sabotage her relationship. he doesnt even remember the birthday of the woman he was married to for 14 years
Robin Williams is one of those rare souls that can make you laugh and cry equally as hard in the same film. He was a force. My Mom looked exactly like Sally Field when this came out as a kid and my parents were getting divorced. This hit hard and still does in a sense. "It was a run by fruiting!" 😂
One of the too rare familial comedies about divorce that didn't end up with the parents getting back together, which is actually much healthier for children of divorced parents, IMHO. Another good one that fits those criteria is the french comedy "Génial, Mes Parents Divorcent" which to be honest, hasn't aged as well as this one. But can still be enjoyed, I believed, provided it's replaced in its context (France, in the early 90's, when divorce barely started to boom, and thus still had a lot of prejudice amongst people, both adults and kids), and that has the very good point to depict kids that felt like real kids, who fight, who swear, who are interested in grown up things normally forbidden to them, etc...
He'd do anything just to spend time with his kids 😢 one of my favorite performances (next to Genie and Peter pan) beautiful movie 🍿 also Robin Williams brother plays the bartender at the pool
Knowing some people that have separated parents, they all are very happy a movie like this exists where the parents don't get together. it's good to know that they are seen. Of course it was Robins who said he wouldn't do the movie if the parents got back together. The man was and still is a global treasure.
One scene I really liked, was when Miranda was speaking horribly about Danny in front of the kids, and got pulled up short, when he made her realize she was hurting the kids. My Dad never once said anything negative about his first wife, in front of me. His first wife saw no reason to follow suit, and routinely ran him down, right to my face. There's one of many very good reasons I haven't spoken to her in nearly twenty years.
1:05: Fun Fact: Daniel’s boss in the beginning of the film when he’s doing cartoon voices was a San Francisco radio DJ named Terry McGovern, who did the stormtrooper voices in Star Wars: A New Hope, most memorably in this scene: ruclips.net/video/bJiqrVWLfdw/видео.htmlsi=9I-aB8u6-iKT5t1a
Robin Williams was a genius! He was a great comedian and comedic actor! Mrs Doubtfire was one of his best. He has many great movies and I hope you get to watch more to fully appreciate his work! I recommend "Dead Poet Society" and "Patch Adams" for now. Thanks Magy ❤️💛
Love the curls Magy. This is a really good reaction to an amazing movie. Robin Williams was something special. This was the first appearance of Mara Wilson who was also in Miracle on 34th Street and Matilda among others. Peirce Brosnon too who played James Bond for a time starting with Goldeneye
I think it was Robin Williams who insisted the parents would not be back together at the end of the movie. The argument was that the movie should not give false hopes to children.
Comedy from childhood, pleasant languor from nostalgia!) It's a pity that loneliness, depression, tragic fate haunted the vulnerable Robin Williams since childhood and ended with the actor's suicide. Temporary salvation was working in the cinema, to distract himself and please the audience with his talent. I recommend the author to make a reaction to the remake of the film "Insomnia" (2002) from Christopher Nolan (Inception, Interstellar) in an unusual role for Robin Williams.
Fact: after Mrs. Doubtfire Matthew Lawrence who played Chris in this played Sam Collins/Servo from the tv series of "superhuman samurai Syber Squad" which I highly recommend you to check it out.
Mrs. Doubtfire is one of my favorite movies, R.I.P. Robin Williams one of the best comedy actors of all time and my favorite along with Jim Carrey. Robin Williams will definitely be missed.
Hey Magy, nice reaction. I highly suggest you show this to Lora. This is one of Robin William's best films. He truly shone here. Enter San Francisco, famous for a lot of movie locations. Sally Field and Pierce Brosnan were both good. If you want to see Pierce again, may I suggest Goldeneye and The Lawnmower Man.
The ending is more realistic and better tbh. In the beginning and when Miranda was talking about why the marriage fell apart shows that there will be no reconciliation of Miranda and Daniel. Miranda’s reason to get a divorce was VALID and she had every right to separate if she did not like the person she was around her husband/family. It truly takes a toll to always be the serious one and to also be the one who has a consistent job/career. It’s obvious that Daniel does not have job security, so it is up to Miranda. That’s why she was able to get full custody of the children. The whole point of this movie is for Daniel to realize that he has to be more aware and pay attention to what is truly going on. He did not notice how miserable and sad Miranda was and continued to be the cool dad, while she works all the time and does not get that fun time with her kids. She ends up having to be the grumpy and strict parent, which she obviously did not want to be..she wants to be able to be a good mom too. But Daniel was not helping her on that end and could not keep a job. He avoids serious conversations as we saw earlier in the movie. He did not even remember Miranda’s bday. 😅 So I get why Miranda was just so done with everything and wants to start over/a new beginning. Also, Stuart is a good guy and treated the kids very nicely. But I understand why you wanted to root for Daniel, but again for me..I think he was just being petty because he’s the new guy in not only Miranda’s life, but another father figure to the kids. So he felt threatened, him trying to sabotage their relationship was not to get back with Miranda. It was because he did not want him to get closer with the kids. In the end, they have a better understanding of each other. They found out how to co-parent properly and be happy for each other.
There are two deleted scenes involving the bus driver asking out Mrs. Doubtfire, first he says in character she's married, then there was an alternate one where he broke character and admitted he was actually a man.
Such a beautiful movie to revisit. That one scene, where she's talking to Mrs. Doubtfire about her ex-husband, makes me wonder if more couples' troubles might be resolved if they could occasionally talk to one another as though to a near stranger about that thing that most bothers them. IDK, just a thought.
I'm very glad that Stu wasn't made into a villain. As he really didn't deserve the treatment Daniel gave him. I mean, aside from calling him a loser (Which he probably heard from Miranda.), he really didn't do anything to deserve suffering a near death by allergic reaction.
I hadn't seen this since I was 6. But for so long I thought why would a grown man want to dress up as an old woman, just to hang about with kids? I get it now they were HIS kids!
I don't remember if I did this on the Good Will Hunting reaction, but if I did, here it goes again! Robin Williams to-do list: ✅Good Will Hunting ✅Mrs. Doubtfire Dead Poets Society (This is the movie. THE movie. It wants to climb the list. Let it climb the list! lol) Good Morning Vietnam Awakenings (with Robert De Nero) Hook (A Peter Pan sequel) The Fisher King Aladdin Jumanji (1995. The O.G.) The Fisher King Jack (Robin hooking up with J-Lo?) The Birdcage What Dreams May Come (Under the radar movie that I think you'll love) Bicentennial Man Patch Adams Insomnia (with Al Pacino. Robin Williams as a villain? Say it ain't so.) One Hour Photo (same deal as the last one, minus the Pacino) August Rush
Death to Smoochy is another great one with him as a villain. Also has Danny Davito (who directs as well), starring Ed Norton as Smoochy. About a disgraced has-been childrens tv host (Williams) trying to take out his replacement, the genuinely good and honest Smoochy (Ed Norton) in the hopes that it would get his show back.
@@nsasupporter7557 George Carlin’s daughter was producing a comedy special in Marin. My friend was the A.D. on the project and asked if I wanted to work for her. As someone who works in film you always take a gig and when I learned that Robin Williams was going to be one of the comedians I definitely said yes. For the first two days I basically was just moving cars and getting the theater set up for the production on the third day we had our daily meeting. Cynthi (our A.D.) was in charge of those meetings and during that meeting she looked at me and said you’re Robins personal assistant. I wanted to jump out of my skin with excitement, but still have to be professional. So the next two days I got to hang out with Robin Williams and the other comedians. It was so much fun. He was very down-to-earth and a loving man and the world will miss him forever. ❤️
Great reaction as always, Magy!! Robin Williams was such an amazing actor, excellent range. Another movie I would recommend, much earlier than this one, but has Dustin Hoffman dressed as a woman is called "Tootsie". It's an absolute classic and definitely worth a watch!!
The court room scene in the beginning burns me. I was in that situation when I got divorced. Except the genders were different; the outcome was very different. My poor wife got support and alimony to help her through the difficult transition. I had to go find another place to live.
I know a very long time ago when my parents were divorced in 1979, my brother and I were with mother in southern California, enjoyed with relatives visiting there someday with good Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents in my memories back in good old 1980's & 1990's too. My Grandparents passed away in 2000's and I was sad to be without Grandparents but I still have Aunts and Uncles in California even cousins in different states. Someday I will fly to Pennsylvania to see my Aunt Irene and Uncle Rick then wanted to drive over to sad place is Spranksville to see Flight 93 Memorial there, too.
Robin Williams spent 5 hours everyday in makeup to put on the Mrs. Doubtfire costume. It was so good that he would actually go out in public just to keep checking to make sure that people wouldn't know or recognize that it was him.
Oddly enough right before he died, Robin Williams signed on to do a legacy sequel, I can't help wondering what the plot would have been because "Mrs. Doubtfire" is such a self-contained story I don't how you could do a sequel to it.
Lisa Jakub, who played Lydia was expelled from her high school for this movie. At the time, she needed to take 5 months off of school in Toronto to go to San Francisco to film the movie. Robin Williams wrote a letter to her school, pleading them not to expel her. They didn't take her back but he showed his love and care for his costars almost all the time.
If you liked Sally Fields in this.. You should definitely watch *SURRENDER 1987* Starring Sally Field, Michael Caine. It's another great comedy with her..
2:37 Very little of this movie relies on _plot_ development. This is much more what writers refer to as a _character_ driven story. Robin Williams1 was just the right actor, though, to play Daniel; the kind of man who would make a wonderful father, given a little responsibility.
20:04 "Daniel never liked to talk about anything _serious."_ And _there_ it is. A sense of humor is good. It's useful. But the unfortunate fact is that there are aspects of life that are unavoidably _serious._
I just realised that I vibe a lot with this movie cause my parents divorced when I was 4, so I was raised by my Dad 🥹🥹. Still, 18 yrs later, they have moved on and are happy with their lives.
You know what's crazy? Robin Williams as Mrs Doubtfire looks like the spitting image of my mother... acts NOTHING like her though. My mother was a tyrant.
I’m a new fan been watching the ape trilogy waiting for war of the planet of the apes :). Idk if yall react to shows but my favorite shows are “the vampire diaries”and “stranger things” would LOVE to see yalls reactions ☺️
I’m glad they never made a sequel… I’m so sick of classic movies being ruined by shitty sequels. Can you believe it’s been 10 years now since Williams left us
It’s movies like these that were showing in the 90s and early 2000s where getting married always screws the men over. This is why I never want to get married because the woman gets away with everything and it leaves the men to rot into a shitty situation. Too many people these days don’t try to work out A marriage and they just want to get a divorce.
I miss Robin so very much, I hope he found peace.
Yes I can’t believe it’s been 10 years now since he left us
Me too
same, i stopped watching his films for some time as it was to hard to watch them.
@@SVPSkins yes, the ending scene on Aladdin where Aladdin says “Genie, I’m gonna miss you” and then Genie says “Me too, Al” 😣
Directed by Chris Columbus, who also did the first two Harry Potters, and the first two Home Alone films. 🎬
And the music was by Howard Shore, who did the Hobbit and Lord Of The Rings trilogies! 🎶
If you want to see more of Robin Williams, I highly recommend the OG Jumanji(1995).

Robin being serious is less believable for me, who grew up on his comedy specials. He was a maniac.
This such a perfect example of how Robin Williams was one of the most important cinema actors in the 90s. RIP you comedian legend
OK, someone has a Boi crush.
Both this and Disney's Aladdin

Yes, Mrs Doubtfire is his most popular and iconic movie.
This movie is an absolute classic, I remember watching this on VHS tape I was a kid. I watched it so many times it wore the tape out. after all these years this movie still holds up!
In this movie we got both the voice of the Genie from Disney's Aladdin (1992) and the voice of Yao in Disney's Mulan (1998) playing brothers.
Fun fact the scene where Daniel knocked over the mask and it falls out into the street needed 50 takes to get right which was then followed by a hilarious unscripted moment when a large pile of icing fell into the social workers tea because the temperature on set was very hot and caused robins face to melt but he didn't miss a beat and decided to just roll with it while staying in character

That one scene, where she's talking to Mrs. Doubtfire about her ex-husband, makes me wonder if more couples' troubles might be resolved if they could occasionally talk to one another as though to a near stranger about that thing that most bothers them. IDK, just a thought.
Hilarious film. Very heartwarming ending.
Rip Robin Williams
I'm very glad that Stu wasn't made into a villain. As he really didn't deserve the treatment Daniel gave him. I mean, aside from calling him a loser (Which he probably heard from Miranda.), he really didn't do anything to deserve suffering a near death by allergic reaction.
Stu became *James Bond* two years later. 😉🇬🇧🍸
I deliver wine and liquor to Bridges Restaurant in Danville California every week. I love this movie and miss Robin Williams.
Tears of a Clown ❤😢 R.I.P Robin Williams
I hadn't seen this since I was 6. But for so long I thought why would a grown man want to dress up as an old woman, just to hang about with kids? I get it now they were HIS kids!
I don't remember if I did this on the Good Will Hunting reaction, but if I did, here it goes again!
Robin Williams to-do list:
✅Good Will Hunting
✅Mrs. Doubtfire
Dead Poets Society (This is the movie. THE movie. It wants to climb the list. Let it climb the list! lol)
Good Morning Vietnam
Awakenings (with Robert De Nero)
Hook (A Peter Pan sequel)
The Fisher King
Aladdin
Jumanji (1995. The O.G.)
The Fisher King
Jack (Robin hooking up with J-Lo?)
The Birdcage
What Dreams May Come (Under the radar movie that I think you'll love)
Bicentennial Man
Patch Adams
Insomnia (with Al Pacino. Robin Williams as a villain? Say it ain't so.)
One Hour Photo (same deal as the last one, minus the Pacino)
August Rush
Death to Smoochy is another great one with him as a villain. Also has Danny Davito (who directs as well), starring Ed Norton as Smoochy. About a disgraced has-been childrens tv host (Williams) trying to take out his replacement, the genuinely good and honest Smoochy (Ed Norton) in the hopes that it would get his show back.
Popeye and Death to Smoochy
Bicentennial Man was such an underrated movie i think.
@@corbanb5 Really heartfelt story about what constitutes humanity. Love that movie.
This was my intro to Robin Williams as a kid..thanks for the flashbacks haha
Hmm. Maybe I come from a primitive culture, but where I come from, we close the damn door before going to the bathroom.
Hard to believe it’s been ten years now since we lost Robin Williams. 😔🥀
Good one, Miss Magy! This is such a lovely movie. Thank you for sharing it.
I always enjoy seeing Magy react to comedies, her laugh is too cute.🤣
One of the greatest honors of my life was getting to work with Robin Williams. He truly was a gentle soul.❤
Really? That’s awesome! Where did you work with him??
@@nsasupporter7557 George Carlin’s daughter was producing a comedy special in Marin. My friend was the A.D. on the project and asked if I wanted to work for her. As someone who works in film you always take a gig and when I learned that Robin Williams was going to be one of the comedians I definitely said yes. For the first two days I basically was just moving cars and getting the theater set up for the production on the third day we had our daily meeting. Cynthi (our A.D.) was in charge of those meetings and during that meeting she looked at me and said you’re Robins personal assistant. I wanted to jump out of my skin with excitement, but still have to be professional. So the next two days I got to hang out with Robin Williams and the other comedians. It was so much fun. He was very down-to-earth and a loving man and the world will miss him forever. ❤️
Great reaction as always, Magy!! Robin Williams was such an amazing actor, excellent range. Another movie I would recommend, much earlier than this one, but has Dustin Hoffman dressed as a woman is called "Tootsie". It's an absolute classic and definitely worth a watch!!
The court room scene in the beginning burns me. I was in that situation when I got divorced. Except the genders were different; the outcome was very different. My poor wife got support and alimony to help her through the difficult transition. I had to go find another place to live.
Anyone there seen the mock trailer that makes it look like a thriller?😨🤣
I know a very long time ago when my parents were divorced in 1979, my brother and I were with mother in southern California, enjoyed with relatives visiting there someday with good Aunts, Uncles, and Grandparents in my memories back in good old 1980's & 1990's too. My Grandparents passed away in 2000's and I was sad to be without Grandparents but I still have Aunts and Uncles in California even cousins in different states. Someday I will fly to Pennsylvania to see my Aunt Irene and Uncle Rick then wanted to drive over to sad place is Spranksville to see Flight 93 Memorial there, too.
It’s tough when everybody lives in different states
Robin Williams spent 5 hours everyday in makeup to put on the Mrs. Doubtfire costume. It was so good that he would actually go out in public just to keep checking to make sure that people wouldn't know or recognize that it was him.
One of my favorite movies at the time. Had a crush on the daughter at the time! :D
After years of playing Santa Claus, I am convinced the youngest daughter would have figured out it was dad by the second visit.
Classic film, i love it❤❤. So many iconic scenes.
Btw, Magy,are you wearing hair extensions cause I swear that I remember you cut your hair
15:12 😅😂😂 Love your sarcasm, Magy
LOL ❤❤❤😂
Oddly enough right before he died, Robin Williams signed on to do a legacy sequel, I can't help wondering what the plot would have been because "Mrs. Doubtfire" is such a self-contained story I don't how you could do a sequel to it.
Robin Williams forever the legend! 😭
Lisa Jakub, who played Lydia was expelled from her high school for this movie. At the time, she needed to take 5 months off of school in Toronto to go to San Francisco to film the movie. Robin Williams wrote a letter to her school, pleading them not to expel her. They didn't take her back but he showed his love and care for his costars almost all the time.
That's kind of douche canoe move on the part of Lisa's school
Only Robin Williams could've pulled this off. No other actor had the ability.
I could see Marlon and Shawn Wayans do it since they've done it already.
@@Starbug1S1 No. Just no.
aka 'White Chicks'
Robins Williams at his best! R.I.P
14:32 Well he don't really care about the salary for this job. He just want to be near his kids.
If you liked Sally Fields in this.. You should definitely watch *SURRENDER 1987* Starring Sally Field, Michael Caine.
It's another great comedy with her..
2:37 Very little of this movie relies on _plot_ development. This is much more what writers refer to as a _character_ driven story. Robin Williams1 was just the right actor, though, to play Daniel; the kind of man who would make a wonderful father, given a little responsibility.
20:04 "Daniel never liked to talk about anything _serious."_
And _there_ it is. A sense of humor is good. It's useful. But the unfortunate fact is that there are aspects of life that are unavoidably _serious._
I just realised that I vibe a lot with this movie cause my parents divorced when I was 4, so I was raised by my Dad 🥹🥹. Still, 18 yrs later, they have moved on and are happy with their lives.
This is my favorite ROBIN WILLIAMS movie so happy you watch this film
Yes, it is one of the best movies, very epic, I continued reacting to movies like this, excellent like this, good job,😍 Magy😊
11:40: *”HELLOOOO”!*
What an absolute master piece. god i miss Robin.
Absolute Classic Robin was a Genius.
I love this movie forever my favorite actor R.I.P Robin Williams.
Also you should watch "Hook" and "Jack"
You should do a reaction to “Society of the Snow “.
It’s trending on twitter and Netflix, even got nominated for an Oscar.
Plus it’s a true story
good movie with a good ending with a message. would of been easier to tell them from the start, could have miked the role for long time.
Rest in peace, RW.
You know what's crazy? Robin Williams as Mrs Doubtfire looks like the spitting image of my mother... acts NOTHING like her though. My mother was a tyrant.
I’ve had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Williams when I sold him a backpack. Very nice man. 🥀
Do you think it would have been more traumatic for the son catching Mrs Doubtfire sitting down on the toilet 😂
I’m a new fan been watching the ape trilogy waiting for war of the planet of the apes :). Idk if yall react to shows but my favorite shows are “the vampire diaries”and “stranger things” would LOVE to see yalls reactions ☺️
the Genius that was Robbin Williams. most of the phone calls of job applicants were adlibbed, as was the bit with cake as a face mask
Next reaction bintang di surga great song n great music video by Peterpan 👍
Hi Magy😊 I love your videos, and that movie is so good and funny and heartwarming Mrs. Doubtfire❤️👍🏻🤗😂
I miss Robin Williams he was funny and a really good actor
There were plans to make a sequel to this movie, but shortly after they started to talk about is sadly when Robin Williams passed away.
I’m glad they never made a sequel… I’m so sick of classic movies being ruined by shitty sequels.
Can you believe it’s been 10 years now since Williams left us
@@nsasupporter7557 No kidding. It doesn't feel like he's been gone for that long.
@@KITT10K I’m not one of those people who wants more of the movies that I like… I actually use my brain and I consider that a sequel is a bad idea
This is one of your better reactions.
You should see the movie “Leon” 🪴
thanks for reaction
Man of the year is one of my other favorites of robin williams
i miss robin williams! he is definitely an angel in heaven!
It’s movies like these that were showing in the 90s and early 2000s where getting married always screws the men over. This is why I never want to get married because the woman gets away with everything and it leaves the men to rot into a shitty situation. Too many people these days don’t try to work out A marriage and they just want to get a divorce.
Do you plan to finish watching the X-men saga since there are still two films left?
Didn't you watch this before? 🤔 I would have sworn that you had a few yrs ago. I guess I'm mistaken. I'm very glad that you're watching it now.
