    What I like about Andrew is he comes across as just a normal guy whose job just happens to be an actor and really down to earth. Nice to see that

      lol, what an idiotic comment. All actors are "normal". You are aware they are pretending to be other people, right? It just baffles me people think actors are charming and interesting in real life.

      ​@@jedijonesBut McCarthy hasn't had surgery or procedures. You can see he's quite wrinkly, although he looks very good and has a more defined and stronger, leaner face with age. He also still has a lot of nice hair and a soiid hairline which makes him look more youthful and attractive.
      Lowe has had some surgery and procedures to maintain his looks - just not as drastic and obvious as Moore's.

      I read some rumors that Ringwald and McCarthy were secretly together before and during the filming of their later film together "Fresh Horses." And that Ringwald fell for Viggo Mortenson, who played her husband. Rumor wss that they had a fling, whilst McCarthy, who was jealous, had a thing with actress Patti D'Arbanville, who was also filming with them.

      @@WabbiwabWab People can't be "fixed." Only they can change themselves. Women should never date men with the idea that they can change them, especially if they have issues like alcohol or drug addiction, gambling addiction, or violent or abusive behavior.
      McCarthy had an alcohol problem for years but he eventually overcame that. But not because of any of his wives.

    Weekend at Bernie's 2 is one of my favorite movies. I grew up on St. Thomas where it was filmed, and I left living there in 1990 2 years before filming, giving us a snapshot of the island as I remember it. I notice the video didn't mention Less Than Zero - a film every teen should watch to see the horrors of heavy drug use.

    • @jedijones
      @jedijones 5 месяцев назад +2

      In the '80s, stars were always trying to run away from what was working for them for fear of being "typecast." Shelley Long left Cheers, Michael Keaton quit Batman after two movies, Harrison Ford said he wanted to be killed off in the third Star Wars so he could never come back, and Christopher Reeve had to be dragged back to do Superman IV after saying he was quitting the role (which is a sequel he shouldn't have done, admittedly). Even most of the Ghostbusters cast did not want to do a sequel. It was just a different way of thinking back then. Nowadays, every actor wants a franchise where they can play the same part ten times.

    Anthony Michael Hall, Robert Downey Jr, John and Joan Cusack...? St. Elmos was an adult film. McCarthy was background noise.
