- No matter how silly the idea of rewatching ‘The Naked Gun’ might be to Bill Simmons and Kyle Brandt, as Americans, they must be gracious and considerate podcast hosts. The guys revisit the 1988 classic ‘The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad!’ starring Leslie Nielsen, Priscilla Presley, and Ricardo Montalbán.

Best quote you guys missed.
Frank: It's the same old story; boy finds girl, boy loses girl, girl finds boy, boy forgets girl, boy remembers girl, girl dies in a tragic blimp accident over the Orange Bowl on New Year’s Day.
Jane: Goodyear?
Frank: No, the worst.
Best quote: "Protecting the Queen's safety is a task that is gladly accepted by Police Squad. No matter how silly the idea of having a queen might be to us, as Americans, we must be gracious and considerate hosts."
Every rewatchable should feature Kyle Brandt. His episodes are always the best!
This movie isn't just elite..it's goated!! To this day, when people ask "whose that?" I love to say with exclamation, " It's Enrico Pallazzo!!"
It’s possibly the greatest random line ever
The “Platoon” part is easily the funniest gag and the “I Love LA” needle drop is classic. Great episode
AIRPLANE has not aged at all. Not sure what they're talking about
Exactly. I couldn't even finish it.
Solid breakdown. I know it is impossible to hit every gag in this movie, so here I my top 10 not referenced by Bill and Kyle.
• Frank in the police station walking around the set/door in front of the camera.
• “Sexual assault with a concrete dildo!”
• When Frank and Jane coathanger the couple on the beach (during the Herman’s Hermits montage).
• Ludwig: “Drebin”……..Jane: “Frank”………..Frank: “You’re both right”.
• When Frank searches the man at the dinner and reach into Ed’s pocket. “He’s got a picture of your wife”.
• “Do you want to take a dingy?” “No. I took care of that at the press conference.”
• “I’m sorry, I can’t hear you. Don’t fire the gun while you’re talking”
• When Frank tackled the Queen at the dinner and the photos in the newspaper showed several photos, including one with Frank taking the Queen from behind.
• Ludwig: “Lieutenant”………Frank: “The feeling is mutual”
• Jane: “Goodyear?”……….Frank: “No, the worst”
The one where he walks around the door kills me every time because it's just so, so subtle.
Goodyear is my favorite
Best hidden joke: From the DVD commentary when they are watching the scene with Nordberg at the harbor "So is this actual O.J. footage?"
One of my favorite jokes
Ludwig sends the guy to kill frank at the sausage factory.
Gunman: “Frank, Vincent Ludwig sends a message” and starts firing at Frank.
Frank: “I can’t hear you. Don’t fire the gun while you’re talking”
Favorite related story involving Weird Al and this movie: “The first time he ever did a cameo was The Naked Gun (1988),” Wallace writes. “Al was single then, and he took a series of first dates to the movie, not telling any of them he was in the film. When he’d show up on screen emerging from that airplane, ‘they just flipped out‘, he told me, especially when they realized he was wearing that exact same Hawaiian shirt, in two totally different realms yet at exactly the same time.”
Kyle Brandt is absolutely 100% correct. Nothing on Rewatchables has ever aged as badly as the Juice. Literally nothing.
Although narrow, there is a margin for innocence with OJ. OTOH, there’s the principal from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, without a doubt 😬
You must hate Kevin spacey movies
@@nocuh You have to overlook that guy due to the Amadeus Exception, which i'm trying to get officially codified among the Me Too Laws.
My favorite part of this amazing movie is when Frank tells Jane he’s slipping into something more comfortable, and it cuts to him in a different, slightly less comfortable suit saying “there, that’s better”
Airplane! is still funnier because it was first of their mainstream movies. I will say the baseball scene is the funniest part of the 80's for me, but Airplane! is still best.
best line: 'Everywhere I look, something reminds me of her'
Leslie Nielsen was indeed in a very good film during the dramatic acting stage of his career -- the 1956 sci-film "Forbidden Planet."
I’m 30 & for my $$ Airplane! Naked Gun & Monty Python and the Holy Grail are the greatest comedies ever made
comedies are the best on The Rewatchables! I still listen to the Old School episode because it still makes me laugh
Loved the naked gun movies as a kid. We watched them on sleepovers. Full body condom suit. Loved that when I was ten.
And man, that guy who played detective Nordberg was a killer actor.
This should've been a full crew rewatchables.
Growing up, my brothers and I would rewind the VHS and watch the baseball scene over and over. No matter how many times, it was never not funny.
Your podcast failed to notice that Frank's "I shoot the bastard, that's my policy" was a direct parody/homage of Clint's response to the SF mayor in the first "Dirty Harry"....only the SF mayor kinda agreed with Clint afterwards, whereas Frank was reprimanded because he shot the wrong (innocent) people!
KB with the absolute BANGER - If Hocken had eaten a hard-boiled egg, it would be the best Easter egg of all time!
Easter egg 😊
Movie was a trailblazer. Started the trend of the seven-person broadcast booth, seen now on most studio shows.
I think that is about the only joke in the movie that hasn't aged well as now a 7 person booth seems almost normal and no one would get it. They'd have to go to a 12 or 13 person booth to make that joke work today.
You guys forgot the best move by Frank Drebin. He’s clearly older than Jane but boldly asks her out within 10 minutes of meeting her. Truly ballsy, such a badass!
Growing up in Halifax, NS, we were introduced to Police Squad through cable network A&E. Early 1990s. It might have been broadcast here closer original release, but I have no knowledge of that. Shoutout to my older brother for introducing me to these parodies and the very idea of creativity in comedy.
next rewatch has to be Silent Rage -1982 Chuck norris
what a banger
Whats aged the best; "everywhere I go something reminds me of her." You see a meme like that all the time now
Bill - you must have seen Leslie Nielsen in Creepshow.. as he sadistically torments a then-unknown Ted Danson. Seriously f'n scary - Leslie was originally typecast as a heavy and only Airplane! helped him find a new career... The ZAZ guys said he was the one guy who instantly got what they were going for, with no coaching. The playing it serious, which actually was the funniest way of all.
Angels in the outfield is apex mountain for the California Angels. Also you have to rename this award. Also the take of thinking Priscilla Presley could have been Meg Ryan is the craziest thing I ever heard in a podcast
Leslie Nielson was also the guy that married Dorothy on The Golden Girls. I think he is also a different character in an early episode
I think you guys should watch "Wrongfully Accused".
Is the last good one from that classic era. It was written and directed by Pat Proft which was a frequent collaborator with ZAZ.
For me is like an 'unofficial' Naked Gun 4. Give it a shot, there's enough good stuff in there.
As someone around Craig's age, I agree that this movie works just this well now. I would love to see his (and y'all's) take on some of the Mel Brooks comedies. Especially Blazing Saddles and History of the World, Part 1.
Bill! Bill! You want rewatchables.... true rewatchables for the boys and gals out there. Law Abiding Citizen! Its has so many of the categories checked off. You can't even begin to understand. You've done such great work here. I just hope i can show you the movies you guys forgot! Yall havent gone deep enough.
The woman who played Nordberg's wife was juror in the OJ Simpson miniseries staring Cuba Gooding Jr.
😮😳
Finally back to doing great films!!! Love it!!
They mention OJ and Reggie being in the same movie, this quote was in Bill James' Historical Baseball Abstract:
"I was shocked. I always thought it would be Reggie." -- anonymous ex-teammate, asked how he felt on hearing of the charges against OJ Simpson
Anxiously waiting for Just one of the Guys, Let’s Go!
As time's gone on Top Secret! might be my favourite spoof, but this movie is definitely up there. All together now; "Nice beaver...."
Police Squad/Naked Gun spoofs a late 50's TV cop drama called M Squad starring Lee Marvin as Lt. Frank Ballinger.
Also, Leslie Nielsen was a dramatic leading man in the 50's who starred in several films, most notably Forbidden Planet (1956) which is considered a sci-fi classic.
Is it the greatest comedy ever? Maybe, but, it has the greatest comedic scene of all time and that is when Frank destroys Riccardos condo home and goes into the busty womans bedroom
I've continuosly 😂😂😂 each time
“When his wife died” is such an odd way to state it 😂
I did my research. You guys are missing so many true rewatchables. I mean for some of the gems you've done rewatchables for, much much thanks. Just hurts to know that MORE than a count on 1 hand alone. Movies that are either long overdue to be done or just not on your radar.
I'll throw another one just for good faith. The Jacket.😮🎉😂 Come on, . . . GIMME ALL YOU GOT.
One of the things this film does well, and ZAZ were masters of them, is sight gags. I'm a sucker for a good sight gag but you rarely see them anymore. Comedy is to some degree generation and it feels like the sight gag is from a bygone era.
Sight gags like theirs would still work, but the kind of comedy ZAZ made at their best is hard to do. The visuals in Airplane, Top Secret and Police Squad work so well because at first glance they look uncannily like the movie tropes they’re meant to parody. They know your expectations as an audience and then pull the rug out from under you before you can anticipate it.
This takes discipline and attention to detail. If you half ass it the joke doesn’t work. Garbage effort in, garbage results out.
Two parts for me
1)Al drops the banana from the side of his face
2)any of OJs scenes. Constantly being injured
Rodney Dangerfield in Back To School for "old guy lead in a comedy: maybe? think he was mid-60s at the time
Cheryl Cox-Tiegs is the obvious answer for who should replace Presley.😂
It's the Rocky Marciano of comedy movies. Probably most of the fighters Marciano beat were "better" than he was, but he knocked them all out by never taking a backward step and continually throwing punches. Maybe most of the Naked Gun's jokes aren't all that funny, but they never stop coming, not for a single second; eventually you find yourself on the floor and you can't get up.
Bill talked about all the misses after the 1st Naked Gun but Leslie Nielsen was good in Scary Movie 3. The last good movie in the Scary Movie series
So much Jim Rome show crossover in this episode with Orenthal and the bad national anthems.
The guys who made The Naked Gun also made a lesser-known movie called Top Secret which I think is their funniest movie
I don’t know if it’s funni*er* but it’s up there. in my book, Airplane, TS, Police Squad/Naked Gun are all part of a peak of perfect spoofing. NG 2 1/2 and Hot Shots had moments, but just weren’t as funny as their 1980s material with both Zuckers.
If the 80s material was the master class in feature film parody, sadly no one yet has gotten an A in that course.
Still no better battle of the toupees than Ricardo Montalban's shaggy Mad Max rug coming back for revenge against Bill Shatner's T.J. Hooker rug in Star Trek II.
1:14:50 SAM L JACKSON was in a spinoff with Emilio Estevez as cops
My buddy and I will just text each other lines from all 3 of these movies and I just got to work as an extra on the new one they're doing with Liam neeson. Pretty cool
1:14:30 - Samuel L. Jackson was in a cop spoof movie called Loaded Weapon from 1993
This is why Horlbeck is the best producer at the Ringer! Sry to Bobby & the Cous 1:21:33
Please do mistic river. Best boston movie ever!!!!
Holy crap. They're remaking Naked Gun and Liam Neeson is playing Frank Drebin.
Jim “the Anvil” Neidhart is from Nevada.
The randomness of Drebin taking the women hostage.
Sorry, you missed the funniest singing of all time. “Let’s Duet”’from Walk Hard: the Dewey Cox Story.
Bill quoted naked gun 3, the line: next time I shoot someone I could be arrested. Am I wrong? Pretty sure it was 3
Best singing performances in a movie has to include Greatest Love of All by Sexual Chocolate in Coming to America.
Dracula Dead and Loving it is seriously slept on
I've never wanted a shirt someone on a video is wearing more than that BLC shirt Kyle is wearing. I googled it and found similar looking ones but not that specific ones. hahahahaha
Naked Gun i assume comes from Naked City or one of those 50s hard boiled mickey spillane type novels
The "what's aged the worst" in this movie was an open and shut case..
MORE KYLE BRANDT.
It's cute how much they want Craig to like the movies.
Gun is great but Airplane is a perfect film
Best Pissing Scene Nominee:
Jimmy Dugan (T.Hanks), League of Their Own
Spy Hard is solid and Repossessed isn’t bad either.
please do REVENGE OF THE NERDS!
Naked gun is the articulation of nudity I.E no affiliation. It is bare. hence; the files of police squad. It’s emphasizing the fictitious nature of the material.
The Kilner Case, my God he was innocent! He went to the chair 2 years ago frank
I love this movie... I mean I fuckin LOVE it...owned both VHS and DVD of this movie... a classic.. but, I have a "hot" take after watching this podcast: "Airplane" is better... and so is "Top Secret", imo :) Still fabulous tho
"State of Grace" Rewatchables when????
Nice beaver!
Are you FOR REAL... WHAT IS THIS OJ MONTH? ...They should have mentioned that Charlie Sheen and the Wayans ruined spoof movies.
kind of a shame this was recorded prior to the baseball all-star game this year. another all-timer national anthem lol
Enrico Pallazzo forever.
Airplane is based on the 1970’s Airport series of disasters movies.
LN great in Creep Show.
Naked Gun 3 and Wrongfully Accused are not perfect, but still funny
Finally
this guy
You know, you can do a Rewatchables without Bill. I miss hearing Juliet, Amanda, Chris and Sean together.
Coming at Bill hard there.
Kyle’s impressions are awesome, not CR levels tho
Great show. I think the shows done with Kyle Brandt much better and flow than with the others
No mention of creepshow
Fergie at NBA Allstars game 1:08:24
I thought 2 and 3 were funny too. I think they really didn’t like naked gun. Bill seems weird complaining about political correctness, because he don’t want to step on toes
Here's a hot take: Caddyshack isn't funny. 😮 lol
I never understood why people found Bill Murray funny in that movie.
Oj was acquitted....
Yeah just tell George Miller to cut something ha
PP was terrible in everything.
1:06:50 Not even a rumor about Whitney Houston lip synching the Super Bowl national anthem. It's an undisputed fact that her team acknowledged. Obviously, still great though.
Oh...another movie where they can talk about American sports🥱. Rewatch something good n different... Snatch for instance and so many non American sports infected movies.
