The Harrier Jump Jet can indeed hover. The plane first flew in 1967 and has been devoloped and improved since then. I live in the UK and I saw it at the Farnborough International Airshow when it was first introduced, it flew in, stopped in mid air and then flew backwards for a little before landing vertically. It was a jaw dropping moment.
Came here just to say all of this lol. But it can't hover as long as what's shown in the movie. It's more for takeoff and landing. Engines burn up beyond that.
Wish this old Yank could have there to see that. To all my "limey " buddies over there, Hi y'all!
Since everyone wants to put out facts about the Harrier, correct me if i'm wrong but, wasn't it also made mainly as a Naval asset? The vertical lift was useful for landing and taking off from an aircraft carrier at sea.
It also performed extremel well during the Falklands War, taking on Argentinian Mirages on many occasions. I could be mistaken, but I think the only ones shot down were to ground fire, not air-to-air engagements.
It’s an absolutely incredible machine, and it’s nice to think that us ol’ Brits were able to make something like that! Several shots of the Harriers in the movie were genuine planes, and the production team had to lay special asphalt on the highway to let it land and take off, as the heat from the vectored jets would’ve melted the road surface!
Of course, it couldn’t perform the extended hovering that Arnie made it do, and his daughter would’ve immediately been sucked into the intakes instead of being able to hang on like she did (and Arnie too, with the canopy being shot away!), but still, so much fun!
The older gentleman with the eyepatch at "Omega Sector" was played by Charlton Heston...which you saw maaany movies ago in both Ben Hur and Ten Commandments as judah Ben-Hur and Moses, respectively. He was also famous for the original Planet of the Apes series as well as a bunch of westerns, crime dramas and other awesome films. A True Legend of the Silver Screen. God bless you guys and keep up with the amazing video reactions! :)
He was also in The Omega Man, an earlier version of I Am Legend.
@@johnfriday5169 the remake of last man on earth starring vincent price. dont forget soilent green
He also played the rancher in Tombstone!
Legend
He also was the opening narrator for Armageddon.
My favorite line is when she finds that he's been a spy for years and she asks " Have you ever killed anyone?" "Yeah, but they were all bad!" LOL. cracks me up.
And, _"You know my handcuffs? I picked them."_
I use that line at work all the time in random places.
_"How are you going to fit all those skids on one trailer?"_
_"Remember my handcuffs? I picked them."_
And, then, I proceed to load all those skids on one trailer. 😂
Genuinely one of Bill Paxton’s best performances of a long and storied career.
I don't think Bill Paxton ever gave a bad performance in anything he did. May he rest in peace truly a phenomenal actor who is dearly missed by his family, friends and countless fans.
@@vincecommando7575if he did I didn’t see it/don’t remember.
@@danielcurtis1434 Neither would I or anyone else who loved his performances.
Dude was literally the most famous actor to die on film, which dream or not, happens here to. If he could have jumped overboard for the Heart Of The Ocean, he would have, believe it.
Incredibly talented actor. Could go from humble family man, sleazy creep, scared and shy to brash, cocky and arrogant all convincingly. Also apparently an incredibly kind man, Michael Biehn talkeds about him on a podcast a while ago
The chemistry between Jaime Lee Curtis and Arnold Schwarzenegger is fantastic in this movie.
It really helps to bring their characters to life.
Her acting in EEAAO was great and everything...but nice to remember she was legit hot at one point.
And the chemistry between Arnold and Tom Arnold is amazing. This movie is the perfect combination of comic relief, twists, non-stop action, a fun plot, and good messaging.
They've been close friends IRL for many years
I don't know why they haven't been in more movies together, their chemistry is really good and they don't steal the spotlight from one another.
Arnold always have great chemistry with kids, and Dushku here was not an exception.
It is always a fun thing to remember that James Cameron directed Arnold in the first two Terminator films and then True Lies.
Neither Cassie nor Carly knows who JAMES CAMERON is?! 🤔 They should know by now!! Terminator, Terminator 2, ALIENS, ...
It is also fun that Bill Paxton was in both movies but he had a bigger role in this one instead of just being killed at the Griffith Observatory
@@ArgonTheAware Paxton is the only person to be killed by the Terminator, the Alien, AND the Predator.
@@johnnycucumber and the only one to be turned into a turd monster by a computer genie
@@hughjorg4008 , Titanic...
The line "I married Rambo." is one of my favorites. It's a joke about Arnold and Sylvester Stalone (Rambo) being the biggest action stars of their day.
Arnold eats green berets for breakfast!
Just like the scene in Twins when Arnold see the Poster of Stallone, feels his own biceps, laughs and walks away...or in Last Action Hero when he walks in the Videothek and Danny see Stallone on the Advertise for Terminator 2...
@@drhkleinert8241- It also manifests in, "The Last Action Hero." Box office bomb but I watch it about once a year. "I don't know much about art, but I know what I like!"
And Sly being told about the Schwarzenegger Presidential Library in Demolition Man. Think it was just a running joke in their movies throughout the 90s.
@@austinseven4720Eh, an expendable gag.
The daughter, Dana, was played by Eliza Dushku who was Faith on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the lead actress on Tru Calling and Dollhouse. Also she was in Bring it On.
Shame she was molested by that pedophile stunt coordinator. At least Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jamie Lee Curtis, Tom Arnold and even James Cameron supported her.
Also "Wrong Turn". I remember watching and thinking that i knew her but couldn't manage to find out until i googled it XD :D
Eliza Dushku was also in This Boy's Life (1993). Which I think was her first big movie.
She was fine as hell in Bring It On, wonder why Hollywood stopped casting her....
There was a planned "sequel" with Dana, even had photos of Eliza in Nikita or Natasha Nlack Widow Romanov type poses with a silencer equipped gun. Dana and her parents do show up on the world of Diane Castle's A Brane Of Extroraonary Women series on the Twisting The Hellmouth fan fiction website; along with BOTH Faith Lehane AND Echo.
*If you've only seen Arnold as the Terminator, then you're missing most of the 1980s and 1990s.* The man was EVERYWHERE.
Same as Stallone
Yup. The three biggest stars of the 90's were:
Arnold Schwarzenegger - Tom Cruise - Jim Carrey
@@Spiqaro Robin Williams
@@lexkanyima2195 You have to add Tom Hanks to that list.
Hanks was probably the biggest. It's always between him and the other Tom. Arnold was up there but was starting to wane in the late 90's as the action genre waned. Julia Roberts, Meg Ryan. Robin Williams was the comedy king until Carrey took the crown mid to late 90's.
Tom Arnold's line about his ex wife taking the ice cube trays actually happened. He was talking to James Cameron about Roseanne leaving him and doing that and he put the line in the script for him
I didn't know that. Cool trivia!
He also has stand-up where he talks about her stabbing him over a pack of Weight Watchers cookies. 😂
It was this role in True Lies that really broke him free of "that guy who used to be with Rosanne" persona and into his own identity.
I always knew she was a fat piece of work but that is petty on a level I’ve never heard before.
@@alwayzchillin0714 hey man those weight watchers have some damn good cookies
Dammit...R.I.P. Mr. Paxton. Aliens was the F****** Bomb, and Hudson is still one of my favorite characters of all time! He knocked it out of the park in this movie with yet another fantastic character.
Arnold- Predator, Paxton-Aliens, Alien vs Predator, Paxton-Predator 2...
Game over man, game over!
If you haven't yet watched 'A Fish Called Wanda' then it's a must see.
One of Jamie's finest films.
A shame I can't like this twice
that was one of the few movies I never understood.
I agree, but she'll forever be known as the scream queen from "Halloween" as Laurie Strode
A Fish Called Wanda is among my favorite films!
One of the greatest comedies ever!
I love the scene where Harry is killing people left and right and both of you are totally focused on how he should handle his relationship with his wife.
Reminded me of the scene in Knight and Day where Diaz asks Tom if he is happy to see her because he didn't seem as happy as she thought he would.
Thats so much a 'me' reaction too. I love everything romantic lmao. I'd have a blast watching movies with these ladies.
Cameron definitely knows how to put asses in the seats. Pure action + relatable family drama + explosions + muscles + special effects + Jamie Lee looking hot + marriage dynamics...he knows how to check every box. Everyone can focus on something entirely different if they want.
Typical women, Tim lol. I've noticed that in every reaction of theirs haha.
I couldn't take this reaction...they are good at reacting to dramatic movies but their sense of humor is lacking, let's say. Comedy doesn't work on them, especially Cassie.
"I'm navel lint!"
🤣🤣🤣
RIP to Bill Paxton. Simon is such a hilarious coward, and Bill played him to perfection. He and JC had some great collabs.
Check out his directing talent in Frailty, with Matthew McConaughey.
Lol, when I was a kid I always wondered what the word "navelint" meant. I never realized he was saying naval lint until just now (of course I haven't seen this film since I was about 12 probably).
@@AdoreYouInAshXI It's even navel lint, though I'm sure lint has a use in naval circles. 😉
@@Yggdrasil42 Brain fart. What's worse I spelled it correctly the first time, lol.
Thank you for watching this with us ❤ Consider ´Kindergarten Cop´ for a future Arnold feature, it´s got laughs, cuteness and romance, I think you´d both love it 😊
‘Twins’ also
@@AR_112 And don't forget Junior.
Kindergarten Cop is a brilliant film, you can watch it multiple times and always enjoy it
Just watched Kindergarten Cop with the wife last night! The shot of all the kids when he comes in takes me back. I feel like I know them all.
Kindergarten Cop is really underappreciated.
Harrier jump jet... Whenever it takes off, somewhere the British national anthem plays and multiple cups of tea spontaneously come into existence just through sheer force of will and badassery, everyone in the UK, including newly borns stand to attention and salutes silently as a single tear rolls down their cheek.
Little fact: in the interrogation scene, Helen suggests the name "Natasha" to her contact's "Boris" because Boris Badinoff and his evil wife Natasha were the bad-guy spies in old "Rocky and Bullwinkle" cartoons. They are showing their ages here a bit. If you are not familiar with Rocky and Bullwinkle, it was a very funny yet satirical cartoon a long, long time ago.
I always loved that Easter egg some people forget Robert de niro played "fearless leader" in the reboot movie more people need to see that movie
I highly recommend the Arnold Schwarzenegger comedies "Twins" and "Kindergarten Cop".
ITS NOT A TUMOUR!
Remember, If You Are Lying, I'LL BE BACK.
Let's not forget "last action hero"
Yes to Kindergarten Cop! , one of our favorites!!! Good guys, bad guys, cute cute cute kids and funny cop partner!!!
Both those movies are the rare arnold comedies. Very funny
One moment that ALWAYS gets me in this movie is Bill Paxton (Simon) when Harry reveals his face at the bridge. Goes from panicky "Oh Jesus, oh no, no, no" then looks at him "It's you" and the salesman still comes out "Still interested in that Vette at all?" 😂 I crack up every time lol
Jamie Lee Curtis really did that stunt hanging from a helicopter. She talked about it at that years Oscars. When you hear her scream, you can hear the fear in her voice as the car separates from below her over the ocean.
Definitely the kind of actress I wish was my mother. Just imagine going to school the next day and someone says "So, how's your mother doing?" "Nothing much, just hung on to Arnold Schwarzenegger from a helicopter."
RIP Bill Paxton, such a great actor.
Cassie is the only person I’ve seen watch comedies anxiously. Like “OMG what is Mr. Bean doing, why is he doing that, it doesn’t make sense.”
Right? I always find myself saying, “Just relax & go with it.” It’s like they get so into it, they don’t realize it’s a movie🤣
I feel like Cassie wants to understand everything that is happening onscreen and sometimes she tries too hard. It has to make sense to her. This will work for certain genres but not others. I think that is why she finds it harder to relate to fast paced sight gag movies like Airplane and the Mel Brooks films. It doesn't give her time to let it sink in and she is not comfortable with that.
@@suebob16 It's a problem with casual moviegoers. They're not aware of the artifice of film as much. They witness a movie as if they're watching actual real world events happening. That means stuff like breaking the fourth wall or doing scene parodies based on how the movie is shot goes over their heads. They're not able to process and react to the cognitive dissonance fast enough to make it funny.
Bill Paxton's line (about Jamie Lee Curtis' character) "Ass like a ten year old boy" will always make me wonder what degenerate wrote that part of the script...
Yes, the daughter is also the friend from the movie "Bring It On". Eliza Dushku also played the "evil" slayer in the TV series "Buffy The Vampire Slayer".
She also starred in True Calling and Dollhouse.
The Harrier Jump Jet. Actually named after a bird of prey, the Harrier. It indeed can hover. Developed by the British and used by the U.S. Marines. It uses vector thrusting, truly a sight to behold.
I was on the top floor of a 20 story building looking at the Ohio River about 8 blocks away during an air show. A Harrier stopped over the river, hovered a minute, then slowly rotated to face me. I was very glad I wouldn't be on the receiving end of the destruction he could give.
That's actually a McDonnell Douglas AV-8B Harrier II, the American second generation Harrier, the USMC no longer used the British Hawker Siddeley AV-8A/C Harriers in 1994.
The Brits had their own second gen development and the US/Brits worked together on their respective successor Harrier projects tailoring each to the specific needs of the USMC and RN.
Oh and we can all agree that Jamie Lee is a complete smoke show in this movie.
Absolutely. As well as in Trading Places
It's in the genes.
Jamie Lee Curtis was the best part
So is Tia Carrere.
She is the one person who can have an affair but you still want to be with her
‘A misappropriation of funds…’ haha that cracked me up. Totally agree.
The Mummy is one of those movies that actually gets better with age. I rewatched it not too long ago and it just reminds me of the days of fun movies for the sake of a good show.
There are multiple movies w/ that title.
@@jp3813 the one with Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz
This is one of my all time favorite movies. I love the tongue in cheek over the top action and premise. A well known fun fact: When Jamie Lee Curtis was dancing and slipped off the pole, that was not in the script. Arnold really was jumping up to help...but her rebound was so quick and such comedy gold they decided to keep it.
In fact, in most movies, when people fall down it's not in the script...also famously: George C. Scott in Dr. Strangelove, and John Rhys-Davies in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
In the original script it was supposed to be nude. Jamie was ok with doing it. But she had a talk with the director about making it more fun. And after the unexpected fall. They all knew it was perfect, And just moved on.
Jamie Lee Curtis later admitted that she and James Cameron planned the fall during rehearsals, but did not tell Arnold, so his reaction was genuine.
@jimsteele4017....You claimed "most movies" yet only listed 2...
How does that even begin to support your theory that all pratfalls in cinema were unintentional?
This movie feels like the direct predecessor to that Brad/Angelina movie Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
"I've got them lining up....and not just the skanks either. Well.. some of them are."
Your flinch at his words was HILARIOUS!!!
Can't believe you guys are able to keep a straight face while watching some of the funniest moments/jokes in this movie lol
21:12 Ha ha, she timed that punch perfect. Now that's some 3D action right there. LOL
The pacing, the balance action/humour, the casting (oh the casting!), it’s an almost perfect movie
James Cameron is a genius.
Tom Arnold almost wasn't cast in this movie. James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger went to bat for him and the rest is history.
And the music!
And the music!
I've said that for years. Back to the Future and Ghostbusters are two other examples of perfect films.
I always get choked up at the "interrogation" scene when Helen says "there's so much I wanted to do wit this life and I haven't done any of it" That's a heartbreaking line.
I say boo freaking hoo.
That statement could be made by 90% of the population.
@@bizjetfixr8352 That's pretty much the reason it hits me. We have this one life and most of us get caught up in the day to day. It's a terrible thing to realize one day you haven't done anything you dreamed of doing.
@@bizjetfixr8352 Yeah, imagine using something that people could actually understand. What kind of dumb writing is that. Something the audience can relate to on a believable level.
I think they line can resonate with 90% of the people walking this planet.
Well it's moving but she found her adventure. Would be heartbreaking if she never got to go on a crazy adventure, you know?
38:44 Jamie Lee Curtis performed the helicopter stunt herself on her birthday. She had to convince director Cameron first and later described the stunt as one of the most exciting moments of her life.
Jamie Lee Curtis has had a huge movie career. Can't believe you haven't seen more of her than this. Her first movie was "Halloween". BTW - her mom was Janet Lee (Psycho) and dad was Tony Curtis (tons of movies too).
Tony Curtis - Spartacus
They haven't seen a lot of horror films.
@@Cheepchipsable Halloween is on her channel. She just apparently forgot who starred in it, LOL.
A Fish Called Wanda
@@veronicagross7458 nope, no relation.
The airplane Arnold is using in the movie is a Harrier Jump Jet, which was capable of vertical flight by using nozzles on the body and diverting their direction to hover or normal flight.
Known as a VTOL system for Vertical Take Off and Landing.
@@curtisberard7831 British and Americans always come up with the most fun toys. Most of which I'm sure we won't hear of for another 20-30 years. 😁
@@curtisberard7831 the Harrier is not a VTOL aircraft, it's a STOVL aircraft. It's not designed to takeoff vertically. If you took off vertically in a Harrier, you'd immediately have to land due to how little fuel you would have at that point, not to mention you'd have no payload and very little water left for the water injection system for vectored flight operations. STOVL is Short Take Off Vertical Landing. The Harrier fully loaded(fuel and weapons) rolls down the runway/flight deck with the nozzles at about a 50-60' angle and usually gets airborne around 100-120kts. Coming in to vertically land, it has a max of about 2300lbs of fuel, 500lbs of water and no weapons (Max vertical landing weight around 19900lbs). Slowing itself down using the control surfaces and then the nozzles going to 25' initially then 60' and on final 82' for touchdown safely on the deck of the USS Tarawa :D
@@mjspitz I stand corrected.
@@curtisberard7831 - Just for the record, it is capable of hovering, if not vertical takeoffs. I've seen one do it a couple of times at the CNE airshow. It makes a bowl-shaped dent in the water with smoke from the exhaust flowing down into it.
Carli should definitely watch The Mummy, she'll love it :)
I think The Mummy they're watching is the one that's not really a horror movie so it's kinda funny they're saving it until October. I'm pretty sure it was a summer blockbuster.
Adore this movie, simply for being exactly aware of what it is, and what it’s going for 🙂
I LOVE this movie. "You're fired" is a classic
I think that plane’s a Harrier Jump Jet. Those types of planes are called VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) so they don’t need a runway. They’re really cool
Its the AV-8B Harrier II, the improved version of the Harrier. Technically speaking the extended period hovering in the movie is fairly unrealistic as it uses a hell of a lot of fuel especially with a full weapons load. When hovering at air shows they are usually without weapons to save on weight and even then they can only maintain the hover for a short time.
Damn spectacular though.
You are correct. It uses vectored thrust. Normally, for short takeoffs they'll taxi slowly instead of taking off vertically so they don't burn a hole into the runway. I've seen Harriers burn right through asphalt in seconds. A newer vectored thrust military VTOL plane is the F-35B. Because they are configured very much like a "normal" jet, people have a difficult time believing they're real when they see them hovering. It takes some getting used to as an observer when you hear the jet engines screaming and the plane is hovering. Rotate the nozzle and it can accelerate to more than the speed of sound. The F35B is good for Mach 1.6 or so (1200mph).
Years ago, a Harrier came to Kansas City for airshow. Down thrust blew apart the runway at old downtown airport.
@@tonygreenfield7820 Ooooh! Just like: Lockheed P-38 Lightning ≤ Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II?
'murica aka VTOL experts....right?
Are these still in use or are they out of commission?
True Lies is a classic. James Cameron's The Abyss is another must see movie from the same Cameron era.
I've been waiting for Cassie to add The Abyss, to the roster.
Director's Cut, please. The ending makes much more sense.
@@michaelminch5490 Definitely. Once you see the Director's Cut, it makes the theatrical version seem pointless. it's unbelievable that they removed that ending, when it's essentially the whole point of the movie.
20:30 fun fact- the song that was playing was used for a kotex commercial
“This has gone awry”. Really made me laugh!
"Look at all these movie references, guys. Look at me now."
They grow up so fast.
Thanks to you two and your patrons for this movie. Tia Carrera (the "bad" girl) is my cousin and I always believed this to be her best movie, some think Wayne's girlfriend in Wayne's World was best, but whatever. You should consider Kindergarten Cop for your next Ah-nold film. Thanks again!
I use to have a huge crush on Tia! ... I also second Kindergarten Cop. I think they will both love it.
Tia C is one of The Philippines' pride.
I actually love her most in Relic Hunter - the TV series... :)
She was Nani in Lilo & Stitch as well, did a great job! But can we talk about her singing? I LOVE her voice. I tend to get tired of music because I'm too prone to replaying it while I love it, but her covers of Ballroom Blitz and Why You Wanna Break My Heart are still going strong!
Mate, she’s your cousin? That’s pretty cool. G’day from Australia.
"Take her, take her, Oh God don't hurt me." I never noticed that before Simon really is slimy only interested in saving his own skin
"Get to duh choppa!!!" 😂 Thank you. Thank you for that reference. 😂😂
Hope one day Cassie will react to Quigley Down Under an awesome movie with Tom Selleck and Alan Rickman
Rest in Peace, Bill Paxton.
41:14 "I don't know if that's good for the building stability."
It'll be fine.
In 1993 terrorists drove a truck full of explosives into the parking garage under the World Trade Center and blew it up.
The entire building was closed for less than a month while repairs were beguna and inspectors checked for structural damage.
The blast was so huge that nearby restaurants and other building were also damaged.
Total repair costs: $400 million.
Total structural damage: one structural beam had to be replaced. It wasn't a problem as there were hundreds more that were not damaged.
Compared to that, all this plane did was break some glass and some sheetrock.
Literally zero structural damage.
Total repair bill: about $1 million, give or take.
That movie knowledge is improving I see. Dropping references is what all movie lovers do, kudos! 🤝
If you want another must see Arnold movie you NEED to watch the original Total Recall from 1990. I would say it is one of his most unique movies and its from the same author that wrote Bladerunner.
Great sci-fi
"most underrated movie" Erh..WHAT?!?
One of my all-timers, but so is Robocop. I think Verhoeven's... eccentricities are too much for Cassie; there are too many "that's gonna haunt my nightmares" moments. Also, she often misinterprets the tone that directors as unique as Verhoeven are going for, and Total Recall definitely has a weird one.
Not underrated
100% agree. Cassie and "her friend" Carli would alternate between being horrified and laughing out loud. Carli would spend the rest of the time trying to predict the next plot twist.
I loved how you timed that Bill Paxton punch. Haha
A movie I watched non-stop as a kid with Goldeneye and The Rock. This one has a perfect balance of action and comedy, with a brilliant cast and a lot of iconic moments.
I used to watch the Rock with my dad all the time, I loved that movie
Tom Arnold was the highlight of this movie. I wish you guys would have showed more. Hes hilarious.
I think their assumption at the beginning that this movie is a drama led them to not recognize a lot of the jokes. To the point that even at the end they said that there are only bits of comedic relief despite the fact that this film is categorized as an action comedy.
Yep. Love this movie so It was hard to watch their reaction sometimes
YES. I saw True Lies in the theater when it came out (cause I'm old) and the crowd laughed through the whole film! ...It bugged me to no end that these girls missed about 80% of the humor!
@@thegreatgambino5079 me too to everything you said!
@@thegreatgambino5079even if they knew they wouldn't laugh, they get easily offended and can't watch anything slightly crude or raunchy without getting upset. Just watch her reactions
@@CYB3R2K Airplane (1980) is way cruder & raunchier than this movie.

"Stay." - Arnold, to the dogs 🤣🤣🤣
Two fun movies with Arnold. Twins and kindergarten cop. You'll love both. 🙂
And Commando and Total Recall if they want more testosterone action....
and the movie Junior
The quintessential 90’s action movie! This is probably the most genre defining movie of the 90’s and it was such a perfect fit.
That guy with the eyepatch is Moses!!! You see him every Easter. Jamie is in Halloween, Prom Night, she was the original "scream queen", but she's been in many comedies too.
Great reaction! Jamie Lee Curtis won the Golden Globe for Best Actress for this role, and she did the helicopter stunt on her 35th birthday (fun facts)! And yes, that is the best friend from Bring it On :) No spoilers, but note, The Mummy (assuming you are talking about the 1999 film) is more in the vein of this film (action/comedy), rather than horror, just so you are not thrown off come October.
On her birthday
I remember seeing this in theatres with my best friend. The scene where Harry and Helen escape the torture room, there's a moment - Helen steps out of her high heels and leaves them behind. Me, my best friend and about 5 or six other women spread around the theatre began applauding and cheering. Guys in the theatre were looking at us confused. Usually in action movies, the woman would keep on those heels, trip and fall, twist her ankle and an endanger, herself or the hero or get them both caught. Helen taking off those shoes was so subtle, but so awesome and we loved it. James Cameron is a jerk in real life, but he always films women great.
Heels in an action scenario do indeed sound insane. But perfect for impromptu strip tease scene.
He "always films women great??" WTF are you talking about- this film has misogyny written all over it- and I'm a guy. Even Leonard Maltin in his review of this film critiqued this scene as a "general putdown of women."
And before you go calling me a male feminist or whatever- I am nothing of the sort. Kathleen Kennedy could die for all I care for what she did to Star Wars and now Indiana Jones.
Everyone always laughs at the bird scene with the truck exploding lol
“This is a misappropriation of funds!” 😂😂😂
Look for a young Eliza Dushku as Dana, the daughter. She went on to be Faith in Buffy. The plane used is a British Hawker Harrier, known as a jump jet due to it's ability to take off & land vertically. There are 4 directional nozzles, 2 on each side under the wings.
I think she also played an FBI agent in an episode of "The Big Bang Theory"?
@@TonyP7007 Eliza Dushku also starred in Dollhouse.
Jamie Lee Curtis actually did the helicopter stunt herself
On her 35th birthday.

Jamie Lee Curtis and Tia Carrere going at it in the limo. Best cat fight EVER!
21:12 - Cassie’s reaction to her voodoo-punch powers makes this vid worth watching all by itself 😂😂
Cameron and co. seriously considered doing a sequel, but it proved difficult to synch up everyones’ schedules… and then a certain incident in 2001 happened and it was realised that the subject matter could not be treated in the same comedic manner as before. Personally I’m quite glad that True Lies remains a standalone film - I mean, how would you top a film in which a thermonuclear explosion on US soil is basically a throwaway moment?! They would’ve had to go even more cartoony and ridiculous to outdo themselves. It’s perfect as it is - mad, excessive, silly, running on the edge of poor taste at times but never quite going that far. I might even go so far as to call it Schwarzenegger’s last great film!
"then a certain incident in 2001 happened and it was realised that the subject matter could not be treated in the same comedic manner as before"
Can you imagine?
-Scary trailer voice narrator: "Harry Tasker is back!"
-Shot of Arnold posing with gun...
-Funny trailer voice narrator: "...And so are those *WACKY JIHADISTS!"*
-Shot of terrorist pushing wrong button and exploding...
@@chrisleebowers We've lost the key!
What? Again?!
@@EvelyntMild 🤣🤣🤣
@@EvelyntMild In the third movie the Final Boss will be the Jeff Dunham puppet
Well especially after the failures in Iraq and Afghanistan.
*ERASER* (1996) is another super-action movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger that is worth watching. 😄
An underrated classic movie
middle of the pack if we're ranking Arnold's best imo
It’s one of the dumbest movies I’ve ever seen and I love every second of it
The boss of Arnold in this movie was Charlston Heston. We remember him in "Ben Hur", "The Ten Commandments", "The Planet of the Apes" and "The Omega Man", yes like the Omega Sector.
The Naked Jungle." Adventure Romance. Charlton Heston spent 25 lonely years in the South American jungle building a cocoa plantation. He orders a mail order bride. She arrives at the time of the army ants migration. The ants cannot be stopped!
One of my favorite old movies.
James Cameron did indeed direct Titanic and Avatar.
He also directed The Abyss as well as Aliens and Terminators 1 & 2.
The Harriers (along with a version of the newer F-35) are able to take off and land vertically. Also nukes are designed not to go off unless they're armed. Dunno if that would have still applied if it was hit by a missile...
Should not. The US actually shared with the Russians on how to make nukes NOT blow up by accident. No kidding .. we figured it made sense.
Also, that particular Harrier makes an appearance in The Avengers. During the Hulk's fight with Thor on the Helicarrier.
No the those nuke would not have gone off, but... if the nukes were blown apart the radioactive particles would have been very troublesome.
He said it contained “enriched Uranium.” I’m not sure if that’s the correct terminology. That would make it a Hiroshima-style U-235 bullet fired into a U-235 core design. I suppose if you set off the charge that fires the bullet, but seems pretty unlikely in the process of destruction by an external force. And there were probably failsafes to prevent that. If it got hit with a missile though, it would become a dirty bomb, spreading radioactive particulate matter everywhere in the immediate area.
What I loved most about this movie is the casting. Charlton Heston, obviously, and he is clearly having fun. But also Tom Arnold proving that he can actually act. Bill Paxton, very much cast against type and absolutely brilliant in it. And the villain is played by Art Malik, who was also in Timothy Dalton’s first James Bond movie.
I wouldn't say Paxton was cast against type - his Aliens Hudson is a similar character, I would say those are much more memorable than the straight man types such as Titatic and Twister
@@ThePuschkin1986 Yeah, this low-class, uncouth, blue-collar type was right up Paxton's alley.
i saw The Little Mermaid today with my nephew. Art Malik has a major role in that too.
Wait, Charlton Heston was in this??
This one checks all the boxes. Comedy, outrageous action some drama, and a little romance. A great popcorn flick!
“I don’t know if that’s good for the building.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Watching you girls’ reaction when the radio guy said that the woman has her head in his lap, was just GOLD!!!
Fun fact: Arnold decided to add the Tango scene at the end of this movie after seeing Al Pacino do the Tango in SCENT OF A WOMAN. Arnold was inspired to do his own Tango scene and even used the same Tango music from SCENT (the name of the song is “Por Una Cabeza”). Arnold said that his Tango performance was the most challenging thing to do, above all of the other physical stunts in the movie, and even rehearsed and took Tango lessons for 6 months prior to filming that Tango scene, to make sure that his Tango was just as good as Al Pacino’s Tango. (Al Pacino ended up winning the Oscar for Best Actor in SCENT OF A WOMAN, which came out in 1992. TRUE LIES came out in 1994.)
Really
A fun ride. I remember reading that Jamie Lee felt she had to get in shape to star opposite Arnold. I would say she succeeded.
How ? I don't see a transformation
The main bad guy was played by Art Malik, who you recently saw in the Timothy Dalton movie "The Living Daylights" where Malik played the Afgan leader who Bond rescues from the jail and later helps Bond.
The only problem is that they can’t recognize some actors by their face or their voice. Kinda like John Terry in The Living Daylights, he was Christian Sheperd in LOST
I just learned the actor playing the limo chauffeur was spotted playing the cello. He was hired to play the part and in a strange twist of fate, got to play the cello on the soundtrack.
That's him playing along to his onscreen death. Did not know that...
This movie is a sheer pleasure from beginning to end. I saw this at the movies and thoroughly enjoyed it. Probably have seen it a dozen of times.
Jamie Lee Curtis got an MTV award for the strip tease scene.
I always wanted a True Lies sequel. Arnold is about the age Charleston Heston was, so he would be the head of Omega now
Yeah, Jason Momoa would be great for the Arnold role. Maybe the other Jason, Sudeikis, for the Tom Arnold part. And Elizabeth Olsen for Jamie Lee's part.
@@jedijones I believe there's a True Lies TV show now. Some reports are saying it's not that great.
I've got all kinds of things to do, but when I saw Cassie and Carly reacting to one of my favorite movies, I had to "adjust" my priorities. This is the first time I actually watched at the exact time it premiered. Lucky me.
What's truly amazing is you ladies got the HD version of this nearly a year before it's physical debut, LOL!
Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Cameron in the highest level of fun. I absolutely love the movie. So funny and cheesy but always great. So many great scenes - especially the Horse Chase - I will never forget 😂😂
People often claim the moment when Jamie Lee Curtis falls during the bedroom dance wasn't planned. That's false. She rehearsed the scene with James Cameron and she slipped and fell and got right back up like nothing happened. They agreed it would be funny to add it in because it works for her character. Arnold had no idea, so his reaction was real.
However, her slip and fall during the end credits dance was not scripted. That became conflated with the earlier dance fall in people's minds.
Ohhh
Ahh yes, the bogus "fun facts" about every movie people are quick to rush in and disclose.
@@Cheepchipsable - Well, I DID read it online, in the RUclips comments section, so it must be true.
The plane’s an AV-8B Harrier II. The Marines have been flying them since the early 80s. They can both hover and take off and land vertically. It’s currently being replaced by the Joint Strike Fighter.
42:41 Simply one of the his best one liners. 🤣🤣
"You still interested in the Vette'?" One of the greatest lines ever.
*Kindergarten Cop* is one of my favorite Arnold movies, and a little different than his usual.
Also Twins
I remember walking out of the theater after seeing this movie.. grinning. Very clever movie. Arnold never looked better.
The guy playing the Arab terrorist is British actor Art Malik. He was in the James Bond movie “The Living Daylights” and in “A Passage to India”.
He played an awesome terrorist in this movie, haha.
Carley- "Drop her over the water then come back for her" 😂
I love just about anything that has Arnie in it. Of course, when have a bad guy hooked on a missile of a just, you have to tell him, "You're fired."
I love how Charlton Heston is rocking the military cut, scar and eye patch like classic Nick Fury. It's hard to remember Fury before Samuel L. Jackson took the role.
Definitely inspired Big Boss
First of all how you gonna do Steranko like that?
Second, how you gonna do *DAVID HASSELHOFF* like that!?!?
A lot of people don't know that Cameron wanted to do a comic book movie, pretty sure it was Spider-Man, and he wanted to have Heston as Nick Fury. If you know original Nick Fury, Heston is perfect for the role.
It was a bit if a weird time for superhero movies. This was around the time that Michael Jackson tried to buy the rights to make a Spider-Man movie and cast himself in the role.
"I married Rambo". Love that line
This movie is one of my favourite's! Pure entertainment. Granted a few things will never happen in real life, but it is Hollywood and I like it for the mix of jokes, funny scenes and the action. Glad you and your sister watched this one, it's a classic! (RIP Bill Paxton)
I suggest the underrated Schwarzenegger film "Red Heat" from 1988.
Agreed, Arnold and Jim Belushi had good on screen chemistry
Cocainum!
This is one of the greatest movies ever made. Enjoy!
