The best part is I paused on Katie's epilogue and thought to myself: "did she write this?" Then read each epilogue as if they were written by each character, then Soren's (at least) was immediately confirmed. It was indeed hilarious.
I'm surprised the line about getting stabbed was put in the epilogue of Stand By Me because it's only significant to the plot if you know this story takes place in the same world as the Shawshank Redemption. As many probably know Stand By Me was originally a story called "The Body" written by Stephen King which was also part of book called "Different Seasons".The book contained 4 stories: Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, Apt Pupil, The Body, and The Breathing Method. All these stories had at least 1 thing that was mentioned to connect them to the other stories. So IIRC the stabbing incident is mentioned in the Shawshank Redemption as a character stabbing someone at random to get sent back into prison. Then it's brought up again in The Body but only then do you find out it was one of the characters from that story that got stabbed.
+Chesterson Jack A Lot of Stephen King's books and stories are like that. I don't recall any specifics since it's been decades since I read them but I do remember that he often referenced other stories. That was a good catch by +Darquan223
I know the book, "who killed the Colorado kid" has a character who goes to jail in shawshank, this book also happens to involve magic so... Stand by me has magic in it's universe?
You missed the epilogue in which Michael is actually turned into an android for a military experiment, but he escapes, and lives in an underground bunker dissecting internet videos with his robotic friend, Clippy, and, together they survive the apocalypse, and continue dissecting internet videos of ages past!
I thought the exact same thing at the end of Jumanji. These two people are about to live everybody's dream. To repeat childhood knowing all of things we know today. I mean, who wouldn't love to hit that reset button and try again, only better?
Is it bad of me that if I were given that power & control I'd tell everyone BetaMax is the technology of the future? I seriously can't tell if that's funny, or mean; but it might be the first thing I'd do. And I'd hope then everyone would accept that I'm not a prophet & leave me alone after that disaster. Mostly because I don't recall all the times/places of terrorist attacks and natural disasters since I was a kid... watching the space shuttle blow up a 2nd time when you were proclaimed to be a prophet who supposedly should have known? That seems awkward.
gekkobear2 The thing is, once you go back into the past and change anything in the slightest, it'll create a ripple effect and history (as you know it) will change forever. So it would be hard to be prophetic. It might seem selfish on my part, but I would mainly concentrate on doing a few things differently on my part, to build a better life for me and my family on the early going. I WOULD LOVE to somehow warn everyone about the 9/11 attack, but I wouldn't even know how to go about doing that, or (having altered history) if it would even happen in the way I remember it.
I'd prefer a sequel more about how Alan survived inside the board game all those years!? How did that young kid evolve into the Jungle man he comes out as. How was he not eaten by some kind of predator or poisoned by some kinda insect or consumed the wrong kind of plant/berry?
Something I remember from an English teacher was that if the story of the character you are telling is not the most interesting part of their life then why aren't we seeing that?
Chandler Hull The flipside of that though is the Harry Potter series where seemingly NOTHING even mildly interesting happens to our main characters after the end of highschool. Seriously, the epilogue on the train platform where they're seeing their kids off had ZERO new characters (except Malfoy's wife). That is so tragically sad and lame.
@@zammmerjammer "seeing their kids off"... "zero new characters"... I don't think you thought that one through. Their _kids_ were new characters in that scene, you silly goose.
Because sometimes the most important part of their life doesn’t make an interesting story. Getting to grow up with full knowledge of the future would have given Sarah Whittle the chance to change events, but at the same time she would have had to be very careful to keep a low profile or people would start asking how she knew about things happening before they happened. A cautious story where everything goes right lacks suspense. The epilogues also don’t always think events fully out and usually take long periods of time to occur. A movie that keeps skipping years and even decades only works if it’s building to a series of events that happen in a short time frame. Otherwise it just doesn’t fit the Hollywood mold.
The epilogue from The Island. This is the only thought-provoking Michael Bay film and ends with Ewan McGregor and Scarlet Johansen riding off into the sunset on a boat they obtained through identity theft. All the while, thousands of clones have been revealed to be sentient. Do they enter society? Does the government step in and take over their lives? Either way, the story of a worldwide major revelation and subsequent effects of thousands of sentient clones becoming part of the world while their ability for easy and destructive identity theft has already been established could provide for some great stories.
Though, they could've just decided to keep the lives of their originals for the wealth and out of fear of being returned to the company that made them, since clones didn't have rights.
"Ewan McGregor and Scarlet Johansson" "Thousands of clones have been revealed to be sentient" You're really trying to convince me to watch a Michael Bay movie and it's working. I've never even heard of The Island.
I feel that there's lots of movies that end with a big world shattering revelation, and it's never explored. And usually these parts would make the basis for a far more interesting movie than the mediocre action film that preceded it.
You already know what happened. They all went back to their normal lives. They're teenage kids. That's what happens. They just have different perspectives on everyone else now and forever they'll see people for more deeply than they are.
It wasn't the answer though. The wicker man (yes, the shitty one) is the answer. We'd get a buddy cop film starring James Franco and Jason Ritter and loose a terrible "horror" movie and that annoying bees meme. That's the answer to the goddamn motherfucking question!
I got one for ya. Mallrats. Brody goes on to host the tonight show and Rene becomes his new band leader. But we know more to the story because in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Brody opened his own comic book store and has a framed news article titled "Brody Bolts" behind the cash desk. We don't know why he bolts, if he's still with Rene, if he still talks to T.S., even if he still lives in his mothers basement. There was an entire movie skipped over that could've been made instead of jersey girl.
Very interesting topic. Most Tarantino movie epilogues could be turned into good movies, particularly Pulp Fiction's one. Pretty much just have Jules "walking the earth" trying to do good and stuff, maybe becoming a preacher, and occasionally murdering people who come after him to get vengeance for some past vendetta.
+Ona Onye John Hughes wanted to make a sequel in the 90's but couldn't think of a way to get all the characters together again, isolated from the outside world.
+Hack Frauds I've always thought it would be great to have the sequel YEAAAARS later, a high school reunion (so yeah the 90's), and we see where the kids went right, where they went wrong, if they stayed friends.
+the forthwright I always pictured John Bender doing well for himself by putting his shop skills to good use, probably starting his own, Brian becoming a children/teenage psychiatrist to help kids deal with the stress he dealt with, Allison becoming a writer/artist with a good amount of success. Andrew telling his dad off and doing something he actually wants to do, the four of staying pretty good friends, and for whatever reason I always pictured Claire drifting away from the group or not acknowledging what happened at detention on Monday. I'm not sure why but I figure one of them just went on like the most amazing detention in history just didn't happen.
+Amanda Johnson I think it would be more interesting to have Allison be a struggling artist or with mixed success. Something that gives her something to fight. I like the idea of John having his own shop, maybe part timing the teens Brian is working with to give them something to do or be interested in and Andrew sorta trying to be the pin that keeps everyone in touch with each other. Some real character development right there.
Greed Davis Allison suggestion is nice. Maybe she crashes on John's couch every once in awhile. Maybe Andrew owns the shop with John, helps with the more business aspect of keeping it going. And Brain hosts a Saturday brunch at his place for them. I want to see this happen now.
The moment Katie screamed "Jumanji!" I might have fallen in love - at least with her character. Not because of the choice of movie, but there was something incredibly powerful, yet intangible about that scream that I really admire.
Okay, the Harry Potter epilogue was unequivocally awful for a lot of reasons, but there's two reasons why I think could spiral into an amazing sequel. 1) Ginny Weasley might be love potioning Harry. All of a sudden in the Half-Blood Prince, Harry is suddenly in love with her, this is preceded by nothing and is introduced by way of sudden inner rage beast of envy (neither healthy nor normal). Earlier in the book, at the twins' shop, Ginny, Hermione and Molly are all crowding around the totally legally for sale love potions, with apparently no scruples against using them. Ginnys mother even comes out and says that she used one on Arthur to begin with. It's apparently very easy to sneak into Hogwarts, given Romilda Vane did so. 2) Children born of love potion boning turn into magical sociopaths. Rowling has said it is why Voldemort is literally incapable of feeling love. So imagine Harry Potter, the saviour of the magical world getting on in life, body beginning to slow down and incapable of following the magic in his mind, realizing he's been trapped in a potion induced haze for decades, and being faced with the rise of three simultaneous dark lords/ladies, his children. Three Voldemorts, named after the people he loved and respected most, and a life stolen from him. From the kid in the cupboard to the potion in the tea cup, nothing's changed Mr. Potter, you've always been trapped. Now go put Albus Severus out of his misery.
But it wasn't preceded by nothing... Remember after the big quidditch game, when Gryffendor won, at the big party he and Ginny kissed. There was sort of a connection after that.
But lots of weird things happened in the 60s.He could of died in a protest .The "free love" thing might not of worked out for him . Here's a wacky idea : he could of moved to Liverpool and created the stage name Ringo . We'll never truly know.
simone robson I don't think the last one happened (Ringo was from Liverpool) He probably became a [REDACTED] agent and died on a mission to [REDACTED] to [REDACTED] after [REDACTED]
It dawned on me how brilliant micheal's pitch could be. Have a guy struggling to pay for college, taking up a life of crimes on the weekends to do it- drift racing, robbery- desperate to wash the blood off his hands and make things better for the downtrodden, someone even points out that he could do a hell of a lot more as an outlaw than a lawyer, finally he finishes his degree, wins a major case and boom, arbitrary neck stabbing. Not only 'try to change the world, but you're just one man', but also 'pitting the poor against each other is how the rich survive', and it could be a paradise lost style story if the audience knows ahead of time that he's going to die. You would root for him, a fallen angel, even though you know his struggle is ultimately going to fail.
The answer is the Truman Show. What happened when he got to real life? When he got his own? Was he compensated? What were his struggles? Did he succeed in his life? Did Truman regret his choice?
what happened to the company who was showing on live tv that they were trying to hold him captive by doing all they could to refuse to let him leave including tackling him to the ground. and how does he go through life as a normal dude while being the most famous person alive. He isnt a celebrety who built up his fame, for him he was normal one second then more famous than Jesus the next second. that's insane
While I agree, that series was excellent, what I'm really asking about is the story of his character growing up in the game. Think about it: we have this kid, bit of a wimp, get's beat up a bunch if my memory serves correctly(It's been a LONG time since I've even thought about Jumanji.) So we take this 13 year old kid, and drop him in what's from what we've seen, basically Hell, but with Poisonous plants and Monsoons instead of Fire and Brimstone. AND HE SURVIVES! Not just for a few days, no, he survives for 30 fucking YEARS! Not only that, but he survives with all of his humanity, and sense of humour, and empathy completely intact. I can't be the only one who wants to know how the fuck he pulled that off.
I thought the Sandlot one was quite clear. He entered the counterculture of the 60's and got heavy into drug use and was never seen again. He prob OD-ed somewhere in California circa 1970.
I haven't seen this movie, but isn't it in the 'coming of age' genre? Isn't that a bit dark for a kids movie? I'm not doubting what you're saying, I'm just wondering why the writer/director took it to such a dark place? (Was this kid one of the 'bad guys'?)
BiloxiElizabeth it was just an offhand comment regarding one of the many friends during a "this is what happened after the movie" kind of scene. Something like "he really got into the 60's and was never heard from again"
The biggest epilogue ever is Shogun. This book (and miniseries based on it) set in a rapidly changing feudal Japan is immensely engrossing, and all the events are leading up to this massive battle between rivals Toranaga and Ishido. Then the battle is just an epilogue. It says Toranaga won one of the biggest battles Japan had ever seen, taking 40,000 enemy heads, and captures Ishido, buries him in the dirt with only his head above the ground at let kids saw at his neck with a bamboo saw. That battle sounds epic, and yet was consigned to a single paragraph of epilogue.
Not a movie... but the greatest epilogue to anything EVER is from the book, _"Iron Coffins: A Personal Account Of The German U-boat Battles Of WWII"_ by Herbert Werner. So, after an incredible tale of the U-boat war, from a guy who fought through and survived the entire thing, Werner finally wraps it up by recounting what happened to him at the end of the war. They were ordered to take their boat and surrender and they were all sent to some island somewhere (I can't remember) and they were held there for about a month or so. Eventually, Werner is interviewed by some American. All the questions were designed to root out Nazis, which Werner wasn't one. Satisfied, the American gives him papers that will allow him to return to his home in Frankfurt. When Werner reaches the coast in Germany, he boards the train bound for Frankfurt. The train takes him there... but it doesn't stop. In fact, the train doesn't stop anywhere in Germany... and it takes him and all the other ex-military passengers across the border into France. Just as they did after WWI, France wants revenge, and they are a bit pissed having suffered worse than just about every other country excluding the Soviet Union and Germany itself. What happens next is a series of terrible events regarding Werner's imprisonment at various camps wherein the French try (and pretty much succeed at) forcibly recruiting these German prisoners into the French Foreign Legion. At one point, Werner even succeeds at escaping and crossing back into Germany (but it was a test run he did by himself and, when he goes back to get his friend, the camp is being moved and he is unable to escape a second time) Under extreme duress, Werner himself is eventually worn down until he finally agrees to enlist... however, he becomes ill very soon after and had to be taken to a French hospital in Paris (the hospital itself is a prison). From there, Werner (while still very sick), makes his escape. The problem now is that he's 200 miles from the German border instead of right next to it. Eventually, he's able to make his way there, through sheer luck. At this point, the trains are being controlled by each country so, at the border, the French crew hands the train over to a German crew. As the German crew is inspecting the train, one of the crew members spots Werner, hiding in a space on the outside of the train. Werner has no idea what this guy will do... one word and Werner is bound for prison and a near lifetime enlistment into the French Foreign Legion. But, the crewman, who has probably dealt with several ex-German military members attempting to repatriate themselves back to their home country, says nothing, and Werner is free. Technically, Werner is a wanted man in France and the rest of Europe, so he eventually emigrates to America. It's an absolutely hair-raising experience that Werner wraps up in less than a single chapter. And yet, it would make an even better movie that his entire experience as a U-boat officer and eventual commander.
This reads like if Robinson Crusoe decidet to write a book about trade and how it is to travel the Atlantic and then titled the last chapter "That time I got stuck on an island for a while"
Kill Bill Three: The movie Tarantino will never make now, where after ten years of peace, Beatrix's past catches up with her. A blinded Elle Driver with survivors of the Crazy 88s hunt down and declare war on The Bride and her daughter. The epilogue was B & baby B driving off into the sunset, but we all know that's not how their story should end. You live by the sword, you die by it. "Kill Beatrix" beats even Jumanji. Tho I have to admit that was pretty good.
Oh, totally. The Crazy 88 will refill their ranks, probably still have some of the remaining whom were maimed, including Sofia Fatale with deadly prosthetics and Elle Driver as a now more Zatoichi-esque villainess (blind swordsman). But honestly, Nikki Bell, the daughter of Vernita Green would be way more likely as the main antagonist, maybe protagonist with how Tarantino thinks about characters. Nikki Green will be the one to "Kill The Bride"/"Kill Beatrix". She will be the movies sympathetic protagonist/antagonist, avenging her mother's death that she saw Beatrix commit right in front of her own eyes when she got home from school. The Bride, almost apologetically, said that if she felt raw about it in the future, she'll be waiting. So yea, Nikki, real name Nikita (Greek for "unconquerable"). Cool, right? Plus, the actress who played Nikki is about 19(?) now and the girl who played B.B. is 17, so they'd be appropriate to be the final fight. Or maybe a twist. Them both learning that an eye for an eye just doesn't work. Then they together finish off the rest of the Crazy 88, Sofia Fatale (Sofia means "wisdom" and Fatale means "fatal" = fatal wisdom) as well as blind master swordswoman Elle Driver. Oh, and by the way, Tarantino is actually very much so up for a 3rd installment to The Bride's story. It's the Vega Brothers thing that'll probably never happen, sadly. I'd also like to have seen where Mr. Pink went to. And don't anyone dare say fuckin' Fargo, North Dakota! Haha! Also, can't wait for Hateful Eight. Post-Civil war setting about bounty hunters and a depection/whodunit plot, it seems Like a very loose follow up to Django Unchained, like Pulp Fiction was to Reservoir Dogs. And possibly an upcoming film after that called Killer Crow, about a group of WWII-era black soldiers who get screwed over by command and go Rambo on those who sent them in as fodder. Seems also like a very loose follow up to Inglourious Basterds. But yeah, that "Kill Beatrix" film is far away. But maybe that's enough time for the actresses who portrayed Nikki and B.B. to get a bit more matured and skilled in acting (as well as choreography and some martial arts). One more thing: I'm still waiting for Tarantino to tackle noir and/or sexploitation. And no, his direction of the driving scene in Dwight's story in Sin City doesn't count to me. :P Haha.
Punk Rock Penguin sounds neat.......in theory but the kill bill is already tied up so nicely why throw in such pointless banter it could only drive the value and quality down
edward tucker Maybe... I mean, I remember Tarantino saying in an interview that he was angry by the time he finished Kill Bill because he felt he had finally somewhat mastered pulp wuxia genre.
When Katie yelled out "Jumanji" and Soren and Michael dove down, I just fall out laughing every time lol. Because I'm gon be honest, if someone hauls off and yells "JUMANJI" like that.....I'm more than likely gon dive under something myself kml.
The epilogue in Hoot was interesting too. Being that the girl character was never seen again as well. It'd be cool to see what happened to her after the incidents in hoot
letsburn00 Yup, they show up on Small Beans and there’s even an epilogue show now; which seems to be covering what happened to the Dinner Gang after they all drifted apart.
Jennifer's Body. The movie was surprisingly good and I think, if they cut out the last few minutes, that could have made for an awesome sequel or spin-off. This "crazy" chick gets demonic powers and goes hunting down the people who got a demon to posses her friend. And she was a bit of a badass by the end of it if I remember correctly.
I have missed you guys so much. I'm a college grad, but after 6 yrs I'm still unable to find a job in my field, so I'm stuck at warehouse with a lot of grumpy 50 and 60 yr olds . When you made these (the four of you debating things) I used to watch you guys before going to bed and had a glimpse of my former college yrs, but then you guys stopped making these. Please tell me you are now going to make more.
The credits actually made me want a sequel to the Breakfast Club. I mean did those kids just go back to school that Monday and have nothing to show for it? How did that guy react to their letter? I wanted to see more to that film, the aftermath man. I always want the aftermath.
No the answer is The Incredibles - the Under Miner comes up at the end and the whole family is ready for action. Jumanji truly ended with those foreign girls hiking on the beach about to run into the board game which washed up on shore.
"Michael founded a band that saw moderate local success until other life priorities intruded and they all stopped practicing as much, secretly wishing they hadn't committed to such a huge obligation in the first place." That's fairly accurate endeavor that I pulled off, except the part about the success. I didn't succeed.
Oh man, best one you guys have done in a while! I know it must be getting hard to come up with ideas for this but I really like it when you actually have a solid theme to discuss and round it up(ish) at the end. The last few have been kind of vague stuff all thrown together. But stills awesome. Love the nitpicking.
The Breakfast Club 2. What happens to the kids on Monday morning? do they go back to their screwed up lives or do they change their ways and become the best-est of friends?
Theory on how/why the Stand By Me death was written in: Robert M. Pirsig wrote a seminal coming of age story for adults, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. In the later editions, an epilogue is added where the true story of the author's son, Chris, and his demise is detailed. Known for his hot temper and meltdowns in the book, he takes a more controlled form of that energy into adulthood and steps into a dangerous situation to use his aggression for good to help someone else. He dies getting stabbed in the throat while trying to stop a robbery. Pretty sure this epilogue is one author's nod to another, or simply being inspired by their work.
That does sound pretty awesome, a little girl who has 30 years or so more life experience than any other girl and can predict the future, along with a boy with 30 years or so of wilderness survival experience as well as first hand accounts of horrors the likes of which basically nobody on Earth can comprehend. She helps steer the world to a better place, perhaps even becoming the first female President of the United States and keeping so many Americans from dying in that foolish Vietnam War, while he can write 'fiction' novels, books on surviving in the jungle, and considering he's been shot at so much, perhaps even try an historical fiction book on war involving single shot black powder rifles such as the Martini-Henry. 9/11 would probably still happen though, so you know, can't win em all. But hey, she could save JFK from being assassinated! Tell Lennon to wear a bullet proof vest! Tell Jim Morrison to ease up on the drinking! Tell Gandhi to... no wait... no, I think he was already dead when they were kids, it starts in the 1950s, right? Pretty sure Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated in 1949 or so. Ooo! She could tell whoever was behind Super Mario Bros. The Movie to fuck off and not to make that movie! Also that the game for ET will be too rushed and will fail horribly. Oh dear, the Rwandan Genocide, she might be able to get the UN to actually get up and do something instead of leaving it all to one Canadian dude. Around 8000 people murdered a day for about 100days. Nearly 1,000,000 individuals in just over 3 months. Fucked up that so little effort was spent on that, but oh no, three planes crash into three American buildings, best make the world spiral into debt so we can lose a war with a country that the Soviet Union lost to in the 80s! Yup! Then there's those big, scary WMD's that the Bush Administration were fear mongering about, only to find out that there WERE none! That's all after Jumanji though, which I think was around 1995, so can't really be helped by Ms. Nostradamus or Mr.Bear Grylls... who names their kid Bear?
What about wall-e or Monsters inc.? in the first we would have like a more massive version of night of the living dead, humans not only learning to work together but also trying to figure out how to use their bodies,all that with possibly tragic consequences. An Monsters inc. Sully dealing with the whole change in the infrasructure of the world they live in, riots and people holding back to the new energy source, maybe terrorists, damn! i want that movie!
WALL-E, yes! i wondered how they all could have survived on a planet with no water, What did they do in the first sand storm? did they build houses over all the trash humans left behind before? or did they live in the ship, untill they overpopulated it? UGH! so many questions!
Mis Shelly yeah I wondered the same thing I was told by a friend that the Pixar universe is connected and that sentient in pixar's cars polluted the world from the movie Cars beyond that I do not know but didn't interesting question in the least.
Also I'd have liked to see the aftermath of tron legacy. Where that chick they pulled from the digital world realises she now bleeds once a month, doesn't have a driving license or passport, has to deal with the fact that she'll die, has to find out that people actually listen to glen beck. Going from a sweet digital world where outfits are rad, to living where people fight over who's imaginary friend in the sky is the real one...that shit would blow...hard. And animals! She'd be living in constant fear of these insane, nonsensical semi-sentient creatures just battering about the place. People take being able to know how to interact with a dog for granted. You selfish fuckers.* *I really need to sleep and/or get a new job.
Come on now, you know people in movies never have periods, just like they don't have to go to the bathroom, sleep, or eat unless the plot specifically demands it.
i always found it strange that both he and his father and a few other people chose to bury that kind of teck. being able to digitize yourself or anyone else. or bring something out. thats high end. a sequal of him taking over the company would be neat.
Messed up on "Stand By Me". The part about Chris being stabbed, while not spoken of until the end of the movie, is part of the beginning. In the first scene, old Gordie (Richard Dreyfus) is in his vehicle reading the article about Chris being stabbed and killed in a diner. It was this that inspired him to write about their friendship, which was galvanized by their trip to find the dead body.
+joeno MRC I like to imagine something different. Katie's, Dan's and Soren's are exactly as they were. And then comes Michael's: "Michael sustained several first degree burns in an incident that he refuses to discuss to this day, but which many have theorised about."
Stand by Me is probably the realest epilog you'll ever see. You remember the time in his childhood when he was first knife threatened you expect him to come out on top , but it shocks you , which is really smart.
In Jumanji when they go back to being kids with all knowledge of 'future events' just having that knowledge would be a factor not present in the old timeline also the timelines would diverge more and more as time went on with probably only the big events staying the same. a few factors that are different in the new timeline are: (I know characters are called Alan and Sarah but i will refer to them as boy and girl) - No missing young boy (not being sucked into game) - The girl has no psychological trauma of seeing boy being sucked into game resulting in no therapist visits, therapist then has space to see someone else in the time girl was seen - No police investigation for missing child - Boy will take a job which was probably filled by someone else in old timeline - Girl is not seen as crazy by others - All people boy&girl interact with which they wouldn't have in old timeline because boy was stuck in game and the girl was a shut-in - maybe a different fate for boys fathers company due to no missing child that is all i can think of for now as i have not seen Jumanji in about 4-5 years By Sp1kle
+sp1kle Yeah maybe on a local scale her knowledge wouldnt be as useful, but on a large scale, she knows every natural disaster, every terrorist attack, she knows what companies (like say, microsoft) will hit it huge on the stock market in a few years. These are all events boy's presence will not change in the slightest. She could game the system in a huge way. And even without her future knowledge, she and boy are adults who understand what they need to do to succeed in life.
+sp1kle You forgot about that one guy who was fired from his father's factory because of something he did and later became a cop. In the reset time line he confessed to his father that it was his fault and the guy never lost his job at the factory so it's quite possible he never became a cop.
+RialVestro I did think of that and some others after but i'd forgot to post it by the time i got home remembered like a week later but i thought there were enough points in the post already and didn't want the comment to be too long Thanks for the input and glad to see someone else as nerdy as me when it comes to Robin Williams films
+sp1kle For this one "Boy will take a job which was probably filled by someone else in old timeline" it might not be applicable considering that he'd be working for his father's company, which the movie eluded to that when Robin Williams' character disappeared, his father just let the company die off. So it didn't even get handed off to another to try to keep it going. So with Robin Williams now being present, the company lives on and actually helps create and keep more jobs!
Harry Potter is obvious - the capture and trials of left over death eaters, the changes that happen in the Great Britain wizarding world, new authority figures at Hogwarts and the ministry of magic, who hooks up with who... the rumours of moldy shorts coming back,
Please do more after hours and less of the everything else! After hours is the reason I subscribed, and this was the first new after hours since I subbed... The fuck dudes...
They come out with a new one every month. If you want quality it takes time and give the other stuff a chance there is a lot of good stuff on this channel.
Yeah, I bet it's exhausting. It looks like it takes lots of time and they're probably sick of doing it, but keep on anyway because they don't want to let Cracked go to waste after they bought the company for a bargain when it went bankrupt.
Hmm, CinemaSins....doesn't ring any...oh wait! They're the guys who do the joke about, uh, lap-dances and....not getting a lap-dance and....yeah that's pretty much all they do, isn't it?
I love After Hours, my favorite part of the Cracked skits. So awesome, please do more!! I have shown After Hours to friends, and sold them on subscribing to the channel, and I can't imagine that the prep/set costs are prohibitive :)
I love how "Sen. Soren Bowie had sex so fast he caught fire and died" was immediately followed by "Written by Soren Bowie". Hilarious!
lol yeah that was my favorite part to perfectly done
none of sorens partners were harmed in the making of this after hours
Soren needs some lube, lol!
The best part is I paused on Katie's epilogue and thought to myself: "did she write this?" Then read each epilogue as if they were written by each character, then Soren's (at least) was immediately confirmed. It was indeed hilarious.
That's why he doesn't use condoms. He hates the smell of boiling latex.
>Soren Bowie died from ALL the sex
>Written by Soren Bowie
I noticed that too and laughed
I legimately laugh-cried at that.
+Douche Bag SENATOR Soren Bowie mind you.
From having sex too fast*
From having sex too fast*
Poor Soren, First dissed for his ideas, then caught on sex fire.
"written by Soren Bowie" :D
Well, he also became a Senator. And, arguably, sex fire is the best fire!
sex fire's hot
Dick fire. Yup, that's how I wanna go.
So that's what the Kings of Leon song means....
"Sen. Soren Bowie had sex so fast he caught on fire and died."
"Written by Soren Bowie"
I'm surprised the line about getting stabbed was put in the epilogue of Stand By Me because it's only significant to the plot if you know this story takes place in the same world as the Shawshank Redemption. As many probably know Stand By Me was originally a story called "The Body" written by Stephen King which was also part of book called "Different Seasons".The book contained 4 stories: Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption, Apt Pupil, The Body, and The Breathing Method. All these stories had at least 1 thing that was mentioned to connect them to the other stories. So IIRC the stabbing incident is mentioned in the Shawshank Redemption as a character stabbing someone at random to get sent back into prison. Then it's brought up again in The Body but only then do you find out it was one of the characters from that story that got stabbed.
+Darquan223 And ace shows up later on in the book needful things.
Now I definitely have to read that! I love groups of stories with interrelated things
+Chesterson Jack A Lot of Stephen King's books and stories are like that. I don't recall any specifics since it's been decades since I read them but I do remember that he often referenced other stories.
That was a good catch by +Darquan223
I know the book, "who killed the Colorado kid" has a character who goes to jail in shawshank, this book also happens to involve magic so...
Stand by me has magic in it's universe?
wow
You missed the epilogue in which Michael is actually turned into an android for a military experiment, but he escapes, and lives in an underground bunker dissecting internet videos with his robotic friend, Clippy, and, together they survive the apocalypse, and continue dissecting internet videos of ages past!
I thought the exact same thing at the end of Jumanji.
These two people are about to live everybody's dream. To repeat childhood knowing all of things we know today. I mean, who wouldn't love to hit that reset button and try again, only better?
Is it bad of me that if I were given that power & control I'd tell everyone BetaMax is the technology of the future?
I seriously can't tell if that's funny, or mean; but it might be the first thing I'd do.
And I'd hope then everyone would accept that I'm not a prophet & leave me alone after that disaster.
Mostly because I don't recall all the times/places of terrorist attacks and natural disasters since I was a kid... watching the space shuttle blow up a 2nd time when you were proclaimed to be a prophet who supposedly should have known?
That seems awkward.
gekkobear2
The thing is, once you go back into the past and change anything in the slightest, it'll create a ripple effect and history (as you know it) will change forever. So it would be hard to be prophetic.
It might seem selfish on my part, but I would mainly concentrate on doing a few things differently on my part, to build a better life for me and my family on the early going. I WOULD LOVE to somehow warn everyone about the 9/11 attack, but I wouldn't even know how to go about doing that, or (having altered history) if it would even happen in the way I remember it.
Edgar Chavez
In your personal life, yes. But in terms of larger events...
I'd prefer a sequel more about how Alan survived inside the board game all those years!? How did that young kid evolve into the Jungle man he comes out as. How was he not eaten by some kind of predator or poisoned by some kinda insect or consumed the wrong kind of plant/berry?
Shawn Harrington It would lose most of its magic, what with Robin Williams not being able to reprise his role and all. :/
Something I remember from an English teacher was that if the story of the character you are telling is not the most interesting part of their life then why aren't we seeing that?
Chandler Hull The flipside of that though is the Harry Potter series where seemingly NOTHING even mildly interesting happens to our main characters after the end of highschool. Seriously, the epilogue on the train platform where they're seeing their kids off had ZERO new characters (except Malfoy's wife). That is so tragically sad and lame.
@@zammmerjammer true. But the wizarding world had been in a state of complete peace up until that time. Peace is, sadly, boring.
@@zammmerjammer "seeing their kids off"... "zero new characters"...
I don't think you thought that one through.
Their _kids_ were new characters in that scene, you silly goose.
@@KelniusTV The kids were disposable placeholders mostly played by extras. They were not new characters.
Because sometimes the most important part of their life doesn’t make an interesting story. Getting to grow up with full knowledge of the future would have given Sarah Whittle the chance to change events, but at the same time she would have had to be very careful to keep a low profile or people would start asking how she knew about things happening before they happened. A cautious story where everything goes right lacks suspense. The epilogues also don’t always think events fully out and usually take long periods of time to occur. A movie that keeps skipping years and even decades only works if it’s building to a series of events that happen in a short time frame. Otherwise it just doesn’t fit the Hollywood mold.
I would actually like to see a movie of Robin William's character in Jumanji time growing up in the jungle that he was sucked into.
Michelle Evans they made a cartoon about it
Michelle Evans I think that was Hook. :)
***** Too soon
***** Too soon
***** way too soon.
No matter how many times I watch this, I always ALWAYS crack up when Katie yells 'Jumanji!' and Soren & Michael duck lmfao.
The epilogue from The Island. This is the only thought-provoking Michael Bay film and ends with Ewan McGregor and Scarlet Johansen riding off into the sunset on a boat they obtained through identity theft. All the while, thousands of clones have been revealed to be sentient. Do they enter society? Does the government step in and take over their lives? Either way, the story of a worldwide major revelation and subsequent effects of thousands of sentient clones becoming part of the world while their ability for easy and destructive identity theft has already been established could provide for some great stories.
Whoa, that actually is a pretty good ending, isn't it? Ambiguity is always good. Too bad Michael Bay can't work like that more often.
Though, they could've just decided to keep the lives of their originals for the wealth and out of fear of being returned to the company that made them, since clones didn't have rights.
"Ewan McGregor and Scarlet Johansson"
"Thousands of clones have been revealed to be sentient"
You're really trying to convince me to watch a Michael Bay movie and it's working. I've never even heard of The Island.
I feel that there's lots of movies that end with a big world shattering revelation, and it's never explored. And usually these parts would make the basis for a far more interesting movie than the mediocre action film that preceded it.
It’s not a good movie and it was a rip off of an older film called The Clonus Horror (1979) the studio got sued for copyright infringement.
I wanna know what happened Monday in The Breakfast Club movie
You already know what happened. They all went back to their normal lives. They're teenage kids. That's what happens. They just have different perspectives on everyone else now and forever they'll see people for more deeply than they are.
+BEYOND AWESOME FILMS i mean.. yeah i guess
I always kind of hoped there was a sequel at the Breakfast Club's prom.
+Humboldt but they're in different grades. And do you really think Bender would go to the prom?
BEYOND AWESOME FILMS Ironically maybe? Who knows, this was the 80s.
"It's Jumanji! The answer to the goddam, motherfucking question is Jumanji, you buttholes!!!"
Love it.
+ZombieMommy it's almost like we watched the same video
+Comicthane lol
That's basically the plot of Hot tub time machine 2
It wasn't the answer though. The wicker man (yes, the shitty one) is the answer. We'd get a buddy cop film starring James Franco and Jason Ritter and loose a terrible "horror" movie and that annoying bees meme. That's the answer to the goddamn motherfucking question!
I love how everyone else's eludes to somewhat major events over years but Dan just gets a temporary neck injury
I got one for ya. Mallrats. Brody goes on to host the tonight show and Rene becomes his new band leader. But we know more to the story because in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Brody opened his own comic book store and has a framed news article titled "Brody Bolts" behind the cash desk. We don't know why he bolts, if he's still with Rene, if he still talks to T.S., even if he still lives in his mothers basement. There was an entire movie skipped over that could've been made instead of jersey girl.
Yes. Fucking yes! This needs to be a thing.
And that kid... is BACK on the escalator again!
Still.... I can't see the sail boat, this picture is bullshit!
This is a great idea. You sir deserve a chocolate covered pretzel.
ForOrAgainstUs We never did find out if that kid made it out of that escalator okay...
Very interesting topic. Most Tarantino movie epilogues could be turned into good movies, particularly Pulp Fiction's one. Pretty much just have Jules "walking the earth" trying to do good and stuff, maybe becoming a preacher, and occasionally murdering people who come after him to get vengeance for some past vendetta.
Wait... I know that the breakfast club didn't exactly have a epilogue but come on we all wanted to know what happened on Monday
+Ona Onye John Hughes wanted to make a sequel in the 90's but couldn't think of a way to get all the characters together again, isolated from the outside world.
+Hack Frauds I've always thought it would be great to have the sequel YEAAAARS later, a high school reunion (so yeah the 90's), and we see where the kids went right, where they went wrong, if they stayed friends.
+the forthwright I always pictured John Bender doing well for himself by putting his shop skills to good use, probably starting his own, Brian becoming a children/teenage psychiatrist to help kids deal with the stress he dealt with, Allison becoming a writer/artist with a good amount of success. Andrew telling his dad off and doing something he actually wants to do, the four of staying pretty good friends, and for whatever reason I always pictured Claire drifting away from the group or not acknowledging what happened at detention on Monday. I'm not sure why but I figure one of them just went on like the most amazing detention in history just didn't happen.
+Amanda Johnson I think it would be more interesting to have Allison be a struggling artist or with mixed success. Something that gives her something to fight. I like the idea of John having his own shop, maybe part timing the teens Brian is working with to give them something to do or be interested in and Andrew sorta trying to be the pin that keeps everyone in touch with each other. Some real character development right there.
Greed Davis Allison suggestion is nice. Maybe she crashes on John's couch every once in awhile. Maybe Andrew owns the shop with John, helps with the more business aspect of keeping it going. And Brain hosts a Saturday brunch at his place for them. I want to see this happen now.
The moment Katie screamed "Jumanji!" I might have fallen in love - at least with her character. Not because of the choice of movie, but there was something incredibly powerful, yet intangible about that scream that I really admire.
We've all wanted to scream our own JUMANJI at one point or another.
Okay, the Harry Potter epilogue was unequivocally awful for a lot of reasons, but there's two reasons why I think could spiral into an amazing sequel.
1) Ginny Weasley might be love potioning Harry. All of a sudden in the Half-Blood Prince, Harry is suddenly in love with her, this is preceded by nothing and is introduced by way of sudden inner rage beast of envy (neither healthy nor normal). Earlier in the book, at the twins' shop, Ginny, Hermione and Molly are all crowding around the totally legally for sale love potions, with apparently no scruples against using them. Ginnys mother even comes out and says that she used one on Arthur to begin with. It's apparently very easy to sneak into Hogwarts, given Romilda Vane did so.
2) Children born of love potion boning turn into magical sociopaths. Rowling has said it is why Voldemort is literally incapable of feeling love.
So imagine Harry Potter, the saviour of the magical world getting on in life, body beginning to slow down and incapable of following the magic in his mind, realizing he's been trapped in a potion induced haze for decades, and being faced with the rise of three simultaneous dark lords/ladies, his children.
Three Voldemorts, named after the people he loved and respected most, and a life stolen from him. From the kid in the cupboard to the potion in the tea cup, nothing's changed Mr. Potter, you've always been trapped.
Now go put Albus Severus out of his misery.
God... that´s hard, even for me, I hate some of the Potter movies.
What in the fuck
But it wasn't preceded by nothing... Remember after the big quidditch game, when Gryffendor won, at the big party he and Ginny kissed. There was sort of a connection after that.
That is AWESOME!
holy shit......you're a genius
in Conan the Barbarian, Conan becomes a king in some nameless land and all we are told is "that is a story for another day"
In The Sandlot's epilogue, "the '60s" was a family-friendly euphemism for drugs. I thought that was obvious.
But lots of weird things happened in the 60s.He could of died in a protest .The "free love" thing might not of worked out for him . Here's a wacky idea : he could of moved to Liverpool and created the stage name Ringo . We'll never truly know.
simone robson I don't think the last one happened (Ringo was from Liverpool) He probably became a [REDACTED] agent and died on a mission to [REDACTED] to [REDACTED] after [REDACTED]
Crick1952 Probably. But I like the idea that he died doing some strange and epic hippie thing.
@@Crick1952 Wow. That would be absolutely [REDACTED].
Thank You After Hours for returning. By far, one of most enjoyable shows on the web.
Soren's trolling of Katie was priceless. 😂
"Sen. Soren Bowie had sex so fast he caught on fire and died"
"Written by Soren Bowie"
So...wish fulfillment?
I've recently been rewatching all the after hours and have concluded that this is the best one
It dawned on me how brilliant micheal's pitch could be. Have a guy struggling to pay for college, taking up a life of crimes on the weekends to do it- drift racing, robbery- desperate to wash the blood off his hands and make things better for the downtrodden, someone even points out that he could do a hell of a lot more as an outlaw than a lawyer, finally he finishes his degree, wins a major case and boom, arbitrary neck stabbing.
Not only 'try to change the world, but you're just one man', but also 'pitting the poor against each other is how the rich survive', and it could be a paradise lost style story if the audience knows ahead of time that he's going to die. You would root for him, a fallen angel, even though you know his struggle is ultimately going to fail.
The answer is the Truman Show.
What happened when he got to real life? When he got his own? Was he compensated? What were his struggles? Did he succeed in his life? Did Truman regret his choice?
what happened to the company who was showing on live tv that they were trying to hold him captive by doing all they could to refuse to let him leave including tackling him to the ground.
and how does he go through life as a normal dude while being the most famous person alive.
He isnt a celebrety who built up his fame, for him he was normal one second then more famous than Jesus the next second. that's insane
I'm pretty sure sarah's job as an adult in jumanji is a psychic so the writers may have caught on
I've always wanted to see what happened to Robin Williams while IN the Jumanji game.
Congratulations! wish granted en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jumanji_%28TV_series%29 40 episodes of fun for you.
***** Oh my god... I had completely forgotten that this existed.
Connor Nay Its really good, pretty dark too.
While I agree, that series was excellent, what I'm really asking about is the story of his character growing up in the game.
Think about it: we have this kid, bit of a wimp, get's beat up a bunch if my memory serves correctly(It's been a LONG time since I've even thought about Jumanji.) So we take this 13 year old kid, and drop him in what's from what we've seen, basically Hell, but with Poisonous plants and Monsoons instead of Fire and Brimstone. AND HE SURVIVES! Not just for a few days, no, he survives for 30 fucking YEARS! Not only that, but he survives with all of his humanity, and sense of humour, and empathy completely intact.
I can't be the only one who wants to know how the fuck he pulled that off.
Connor Nay You are right I had fogotten completly that it was the two kids and the character that Robin Williams played.
I thought the Sandlot one was quite clear. He entered the counterculture of the 60's and got heavy into drug use and was never seen again. He prob OD-ed somewhere in California circa 1970.
Or may have ended up being buried in an unmarked grave in Southeast Asia.
+ackbarfan5556 also that. But the point is, the intention was quite obvious
J. Nicolosi Yea, no lie there.
I haven't seen this movie, but isn't it in the 'coming of age' genre? Isn't that a bit dark for a kids movie? I'm not doubting what you're saying, I'm just wondering why the writer/director took it to such a dark place? (Was this kid one of the 'bad guys'?)
BiloxiElizabeth it was just an offhand comment regarding one of the many friends during a "this is what happened after the movie" kind of scene. Something like "he really got into the 60's and was never heard from again"
"Get me to do it for you." I love that so very, very much.
The biggest epilogue ever is Shogun. This book (and miniseries based on it) set in a rapidly changing feudal Japan is immensely engrossing, and all the events are leading up to this massive battle between rivals Toranaga and Ishido. Then the battle is just an epilogue. It says Toranaga won one of the biggest battles Japan had ever seen, taking 40,000 enemy heads, and captures Ishido, buries him in the dirt with only his head above the ground at let kids saw at his neck with a bamboo saw. That battle sounds epic, and yet was consigned to a single paragraph of epilogue.
I'd watch a Seinfeld-esque After Hours sitcom....
Burtram disappeared with D-Day (was never seen again as well) from Animal House
Not a movie... but the greatest epilogue to anything EVER is from the book, _"Iron Coffins: A Personal Account Of The German U-boat Battles Of WWII"_ by Herbert Werner. So, after an incredible tale of the U-boat war, from a guy who fought through and survived the entire thing, Werner finally wraps it up by recounting what happened to him at the end of the war.
They were ordered to take their boat and surrender and they were all sent to some island somewhere (I can't remember) and they were held there for about a month or so. Eventually, Werner is interviewed by some American. All the questions were designed to root out Nazis, which Werner wasn't one. Satisfied, the American gives him papers that will allow him to return to his home in Frankfurt. When Werner reaches the coast in Germany, he boards the train bound for Frankfurt. The train takes him there... but it doesn't stop. In fact, the train doesn't stop anywhere in Germany... and it takes him and all the other ex-military passengers across the border into France.
Just as they did after WWI, France wants revenge, and they are a bit pissed having suffered worse than just about every other country excluding the Soviet Union and Germany itself. What happens next is a series of terrible events regarding Werner's imprisonment at various camps wherein the French try (and pretty much succeed at) forcibly recruiting these German prisoners into the French Foreign Legion. At one point, Werner even succeeds at escaping and crossing back into Germany (but it was a test run he did by himself and, when he goes back to get his friend, the camp is being moved and he is unable to escape a second time) Under extreme duress, Werner himself is eventually worn down until he finally agrees to enlist... however, he becomes ill very soon after and had to be taken to a French hospital in Paris (the hospital itself is a prison). From there, Werner (while still very sick), makes his escape. The problem now is that he's 200 miles from the German border instead of right next to it. Eventually, he's able to make his way there, through sheer luck. At this point, the trains are being controlled by each country so, at the border, the French crew hands the train over to a German crew. As the German crew is inspecting the train, one of the crew members spots Werner, hiding in a space on the outside of the train. Werner has no idea what this guy will do... one word and Werner is bound for prison and a near lifetime enlistment into the French Foreign Legion. But, the crewman, who has probably dealt with several ex-German military members attempting to repatriate themselves back to their home country, says nothing, and Werner is free. Technically, Werner is a wanted man in France and the rest of Europe, so he eventually emigrates to America.
It's an absolutely hair-raising experience that Werner wraps up in less than a single chapter. And yet, it would make an even better movie that his entire experience as a U-boat officer and eventual commander.
This reads like if Robinson Crusoe decidet to write a book about trade and how it is to travel the Atlantic and then titled the last chapter "That time I got stuck on an island for a while"
Kill Bill Three: The movie Tarantino will never make now, where after ten years of peace, Beatrix's past catches up with her. A blinded Elle Driver with survivors of the Crazy 88s hunt down and declare war on The Bride and her daughter. The epilogue was B & baby B driving off into the sunset, but we all know that's not how their story should end. You live by the sword, you die by it.
"Kill Beatrix" beats even Jumanji. Tho I have to admit that was pretty good.
Oh, totally. The Crazy 88 will refill their ranks, probably still have some of the remaining whom were maimed, including Sofia Fatale with deadly prosthetics and Elle Driver as a now more Zatoichi-esque villainess (blind swordsman). But honestly, Nikki Bell, the daughter of Vernita Green would be way more likely as the main antagonist, maybe protagonist with how Tarantino thinks about characters. Nikki Green will be the one to "Kill The Bride"/"Kill Beatrix". She will be the movies sympathetic protagonist/antagonist, avenging her mother's death that she saw Beatrix commit right in front of her own eyes when she got home from school. The Bride, almost apologetically, said that if she felt raw about it in the future, she'll be waiting. So yea, Nikki, real name Nikita (Greek for "unconquerable"). Cool, right? Plus, the actress who played Nikki is about 19(?) now and the girl who played B.B. is 17, so they'd be appropriate to be the final fight. Or maybe a twist. Them both learning that an eye for an eye just doesn't work. Then they together finish off the rest of the Crazy 88, Sofia Fatale (Sofia means "wisdom" and Fatale means "fatal" = fatal wisdom) as well as blind master swordswoman Elle Driver.
Oh, and by the way, Tarantino is actually very much so up for a 3rd installment to The Bride's story. It's the Vega Brothers thing that'll probably never happen, sadly. I'd also like to have seen where Mr. Pink went to. And don't anyone dare say fuckin' Fargo, North Dakota! Haha!
Also, can't wait for Hateful Eight. Post-Civil war setting about bounty hunters and a depection/whodunit plot, it seems Like a very loose follow up to Django Unchained, like Pulp Fiction was to Reservoir Dogs. And possibly an upcoming film after that called Killer Crow, about a group of WWII-era black soldiers who get screwed over by command and go Rambo on those who sent them in as fodder. Seems also like a very loose follow up to Inglourious Basterds. But yeah, that "Kill Beatrix" film is far away. But maybe that's enough time for the actresses who portrayed Nikki and B.B. to get a bit more matured and skilled in acting (as well as choreography and some martial arts).
One more thing: I'm still waiting for Tarantino to tackle noir and/or sexploitation. And no, his direction of the driving scene in Dwight's story in Sin City doesn't count to me. :P Haha.
Punk Rock Penguin sounds neat.......in theory but the kill bill is already tied up so nicely why throw in such pointless banter it could only drive the value and quality down
Oh god... please don't give him more ideas, Django unchained was so awful.....so awful.
edward tucker Maybe... I mean, I remember Tarantino saying in an interview that he was angry by the time he finished Kill Bill because he felt he had finally somewhat mastered pulp wuxia genre.
Punk Rock Penguin pulp wuxia?............you mean pulp fiction?
This is definitely the best show on cracked.
When Katie yelled out "Jumanji" and Soren and Michael dove down, I just fall out laughing every time lol. Because I'm gon be honest, if someone hauls off and yells "JUMANJI" like that.....I'm more than likely gon dive under something myself kml.
MORE AFTER HOURS ITS LITERALLY YOUR BEST SHOW!!! I CAN TOTALLY SEE A NETWORK PICKING THIS SHOW UP
The epilogue in Hoot was interesting too. Being that the girl character was never seen again as well. It'd be cool to see what happened to her after the incidents in hoot
i hope they dont stop making after hours....i actually subscribed to cracked because of after hours....
same
Sad day. Me too.
Jinxed it :P
They all tend to pop in on small beans, the Michael Swaim owned podcast network mostly made of ex cracked people.
letsburn00 Yup, they show up on Small Beans and there’s even an epilogue show now; which seems to be covering what happened to the Dinner Gang after they all drifted apart.
3:53 Uh, you DO know Project X was _based on_ that kid in Australia's party, right? Those aren't two separate things to mix together...
"Sen. Soren Bowie had sex so fast that he caught fire and died." Love it.
That is the epilogue I want to see
***** How can you say that? There were new Seanbabys just last month! And they were amazing, as to be expected from him!
Followed immediately by "Written by Soren Bowie" - just perfect timing.
This is probably my favorite episode yet. You guys nailed it.
I didn't know any of those movies except Jumanji. :)
Or not American possibly.
DeadDancers
I'm not American, I have seen every one of those movies!
Alejandro Capitan or watching the movies now... That'll work too....
Now your just talking crazy!
Meh, I'm too old and crotchety to go chase up old movies... now where did I put my walker..?
Cracked After Hours is the only reason I watch Cracked at all. These four actor/writers come up with really thoughtful incite.
You should do an After Hours about how text based information is never left on the screen long enough for the average person to finish reading.
Read faster or use the pause function.
This is my favorite thing to come out of Cracked. You guys are awesome.
Jennifer's Body.
The movie was surprisingly good and I think, if they cut out the last few minutes, that could have made for an awesome sequel or spin-off. This "crazy" chick gets demonic powers and goes hunting down the people who got a demon to posses her friend. And she was a bit of a badass by the end of it if I remember correctly.
Dear Katie from Cracked, You look like Velma from Scooby Doo, and that rocks! Loving this Cracked !
I have missed you guys so much. I'm a college grad, but after 6 yrs I'm still unable to find a job in my field, so I'm stuck at warehouse with a lot of grumpy 50 and 60 yr olds . When you made these (the four of you debating things) I used to watch you guys before going to bed and had a glimpse of my former college yrs, but then you guys stopped making these. Please tell me you are now going to make more.
Oof. Thanks for vindicating my choice to avoid post-secondary education.
I like when Katie gets a mad and yells
Ler's GO! More After Hours
After Hours is seriously your best show. Keep it up, please \o/
The credits actually made me want a sequel to the Breakfast Club. I mean did those kids just go back to school that Monday and have nothing to show for it? How did that guy react to their letter? I wanted to see more to that film, the aftermath man. I always want the aftermath.
Seriously guys, these videos beat almost anything currently on TV. Please keep up the snappy editing and very good dialogue.
No the answer is The Incredibles - the Under Miner comes up at the end and the whole family is ready for action. Jumanji truly ended with those foreign girls hiking on the beach about to run into the board game which washed up on shore.
Well the Incredibles one was done through video game so that situation was settled.
They were French.
Aren't they making an incredible 2?
They did the sequel... the Underminer stuff was over in like, the first five minutes.
"Michael founded a band that saw moderate local success until other life priorities intruded and they all stopped practicing as much, secretly wishing they hadn't committed to such a huge obligation in the first place."
That's fairly accurate endeavor that I pulled off, except the part about the success. I didn't succeed.
Still a fantastic series in 2022
Oh man, best one you guys have done in a while! I know it must be getting hard to come up with ideas for this but I really like it when you actually have a solid theme to discuss and round it up(ish) at the end. The last few have been kind of vague stuff all thrown together. But stills awesome. Love the nitpicking.
The Breakfast Club 2. What happens to the kids on Monday morning? do they go back to their screwed up lives or do they change their ways and become the best-est of friends?
omg how much i love After Hours.
most of disneys "lived happily ever after", i wanna see what that is like!
Law and Order: Harry Potter. Hermione is a lawyer, Ron and Harry are the buddy cops fighting dark wizards.
Why are you all so radiant in this video... like what the hell Dan. Arms? Tan? Soren great ending. Katie YES that idea rocked.
Harry Potter epilogue sequel where Albus Severus Potter gets placed into Sliveren
B-b-but.... He's a potter... you cant... it's not... *head explodes*
slitherin
omer shaik nope, try again.
Oh right, slytherin. Sorry
There you go.
Theory on how/why the Stand By Me death was written in: Robert M. Pirsig wrote a seminal coming of age story for adults, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. In the later editions, an epilogue is added where the true story of the author's son, Chris, and his demise is detailed. Known for his hot temper and meltdowns in the book, he takes a more controlled form of that energy into adulthood and steps into a dangerous situation to use his aggression for good to help someone else. He dies getting stabbed in the throat while trying to stop a robbery.
Pretty sure this epilogue is one author's nod to another, or simply being inspired by their work.
I only subscribe to this channel for after hours.
😁 River Phoenix drifting on the weekends! That's gold! I love this show.
Jay and Silent Bob stike back started as an epilogue from mallrats
By far the best videos are the After Hours! I wish you guys did more of that ^^ Congrats on the always great job :)
So...Zathura is Jumanji in space?
BTW happy to see new guy hasn't truly infected one of the best things about cracked, thanks for at least keeping something good
Is it just me or did that lady with the puppy look like Diane from BoJack Horseman?
Katie is very passive agresive with crazy eyes but we like her... as a distance friend 🤫
Yay a proper After Hours.
Welcome back, original ideas and a script being written for more than 15 minutes (including the lunch break).
That does sound pretty awesome, a little girl who has 30 years or so more life experience than any other girl and can predict the future, along with a boy with 30 years or so of wilderness survival experience as well as first hand accounts of horrors the likes of which basically nobody on Earth can comprehend. She helps steer the world to a better place, perhaps even becoming the first female President of the United States and keeping so many Americans from dying in that foolish Vietnam War, while he can write 'fiction' novels, books on surviving in the jungle, and considering he's been shot at so much, perhaps even try an historical fiction book on war involving single shot black powder rifles such as the Martini-Henry.
9/11 would probably still happen though, so you know, can't win em all. But hey, she could save JFK from being assassinated! Tell Lennon to wear a bullet proof vest! Tell Jim Morrison to ease up on the drinking! Tell Gandhi to... no wait... no, I think he was already dead when they were kids, it starts in the 1950s, right? Pretty sure Mahatma Gandhi was assassinated in 1949 or so. Ooo! She could tell whoever was behind Super Mario Bros. The Movie to fuck off and not to make that movie! Also that the game for ET will be too rushed and will fail horribly. Oh dear, the Rwandan Genocide, she might be able to get the UN to actually get up and do something instead of leaving it all to one Canadian dude. Around 8000 people murdered a day for about 100days. Nearly 1,000,000 individuals in just over 3 months. Fucked up that so little effort was spent on that, but oh no, three planes crash into three American buildings, best make the world spiral into debt so we can lose a war with a country that the Soviet Union lost to in the 80s! Yup! Then there's those big, scary WMD's that the Bush Administration were fear mongering about, only to find out that there WERE none! That's all after Jumanji though, which I think was around 1995, so can't really be helped by Ms. Nostradamus or Mr.Bear Grylls... who names their kid Bear?
2:03 That's what happened to Jonah in Veep. Damn, these guys called it sometimes.
What about wall-e or Monsters inc.? in the first we would have like a more massive version of night of the living dead, humans not only learning to work together but also trying to figure out how to use their bodies,all that with possibly tragic consequences. An Monsters inc. Sully dealing with the whole change in the infrasructure of the world they live in, riots and people holding back to the new energy source, maybe terrorists, damn! i want that movie!
WALL-E, yes! i wondered how they all could have survived on a planet with no water, What did they do in the first sand storm? did they build houses over all the trash humans left behind before? or did they live in the ship, untill they overpopulated it? UGH! so many questions!
Mis Shelly wall-e there would be no point. lets face it talking ruined the movie preaty much. NOW monster INC however that could go places,
Mis Shelly yeah I wondered the same thing I was told by a friend that the Pixar universe is connected and that sentient in pixar's cars polluted the world from the movie Cars beyond that I do not know but didn't interesting question in the least.
mike giles that is stupid canon the only truth to it is the A113 and easter eggs the animation team put for fun
Do not know but I do not watch much pixar so your probably right interesting to say the least
So glad this series is back. Omfg. I was dying without it. Thank you sweet baby Jesus.
Also I'd have liked to see the aftermath of tron legacy. Where that chick they pulled from the digital world realises she now bleeds once a month, doesn't have a driving license or passport, has to deal with the fact that she'll die, has to find out that people actually listen to glen beck. Going from a sweet digital world where outfits are rad, to living where people fight over who's imaginary friend in the sky is the real one...that shit would blow...hard. And animals! She'd be living in constant fear of these insane, nonsensical semi-sentient creatures just battering about the place. People take being able to know how to interact with a dog for granted. You selfish fuckers.*
*I really need to sleep and/or get a new job.
Come on now, you know people in movies never have periods, just like they don't have to go to the bathroom, sleep, or eat unless the plot specifically demands it.
Meg Ashley the sims... o.O
i always found it strange that both he and his father and a few other people chose to bury that kind of teck. being able to digitize yourself or anyone else. or bring something out. thats high end. a sequal of him taking over the company would be neat.
I watched this an embarrassing number of times before noticing the "Stinky and the Brain" cover. Perfect!
I would love a Bridge of Spies sequel based on the epilogue.
Yeah, that'd be great
its called real life. . .that was a true story. spoilers the Soviet Union collapses
Messed up on "Stand By Me". The part about Chris being stabbed, while not spoken of until the end of the movie, is part of the beginning. In the first scene, old Gordie (Richard Dreyfus) is in his vehicle reading the article about Chris being stabbed and killed in a diner. It was this that inspired him to write about their friendship, which was galvanized by their trip to find the dead body.
Yes! More after Hours!
you should do After Hours weekly, it's the best sketch you guys have.
Eh the best part of Jumanji is when he makes up with his father.
Been waiting for it and it's finally here!! Love After Hours!
Anyone else think that the sex joke at the end better suits Michael than Soren? Anyone?
eh..kinda
+joeno MRC I like to imagine something different. Katie's, Dan's and Soren's are exactly as they were. And then comes Michael's:
"Michael sustained several first degree burns in an incident that he refuses to discuss to this day, but which many have theorised about."
People, there is no greater yet-to-be-made epilogue better than Sloth moving in with Chunk and family. That I would pay to see.
I kinda always want the epilogue sequel, to everything, I may watch to many movies... I'm lonely.
Awwww. You're ok buddy.
Ethan Velasquez Better than their grammar.
Stand by Me is probably the realest epilog you'll ever see. You remember the time in his childhood when he was first knife threatened you expect him to come out on top , but it shocks you , which is really smart.
In Jumanji when they go back to being kids with all knowledge of 'future events' just having that knowledge would be a factor not present in the old timeline also the timelines would diverge more and more as time went on with probably only the big events staying the same.
a few factors that are different in the new timeline are:
(I know characters are called Alan and Sarah but i will refer to them as boy and girl)
- No missing young boy (not being sucked into game)
- The girl has no psychological trauma of seeing boy being sucked into game resulting in no therapist visits, therapist then has space to see someone else in the time girl was seen
- No police investigation for missing child
- Boy will take a job which was probably filled by someone else in old timeline
- Girl is not seen as crazy by others
- All people boy&girl interact with which they wouldn't have in old timeline because boy was stuck in game and the girl was a shut-in
- maybe a different fate for boys fathers company due to no missing child
that is all i can think of for now as i have not seen Jumanji in about 4-5 years
By Sp1kle
+sp1kle Yeah maybe on a local scale her knowledge wouldnt be as useful, but on a large scale, she knows every natural disaster, every terrorist attack, she knows what companies (like say, microsoft) will hit it huge on the stock market in a few years. These are all events boy's presence will not change in the slightest. She could game the system in a huge way. And even without her future knowledge, she and boy are adults who understand what they need to do to succeed in life.
+sp1kle You forgot about that one guy who was fired from his father's factory because of something he did and later became a cop. In the reset time line he confessed to his father that it was his fault and the guy never lost his job at the factory so it's quite possible he never became a cop.
+RialVestro I did think of that and some others after but i'd forgot to post it by the time i got home remembered like a week later but i thought there were enough points in the post already and didn't want the comment to be too long
Thanks for the input and glad to see someone else as nerdy as me when it comes to Robin Williams films
+sp1kle For this one "Boy will take a job which was probably filled by someone else in old timeline" it might not be applicable considering that he'd be working for his father's company, which the movie eluded to that when Robin Williams' character disappeared, his father just let the company die off. So it didn't even get handed off to another to try to keep it going. So with Robin Williams now being present, the company lives on and actually helps create and keep more jobs!
+RialVestro maybe Robin convinced that guy to become a cop, telling him that he'd be good at it.
"You ever seen a ketchup packet explode?" lol
Harry Potter is obvious - the capture and trials of left over death eaters, the changes that happen in the Great Britain wizarding world, new authority figures at Hogwarts and the ministry of magic, who hooks up with who... the rumours of moldy shorts coming back,
FINALLY! This is the only series Cracked makes that I enjoy. MORE!
Please do more after hours and less of the everything else! After hours is the reason I subscribed, and this was the first new after hours since I subbed... The fuck dudes...
They come out with a new one every month. If you want quality it takes time and give the other stuff a chance there is a lot of good stuff on this channel.
Yeah, I bet it's exhausting.
It looks like it takes lots of time and they're probably sick of doing it, but keep on anyway because they don't want to let Cracked go to waste after they bought the company for a bargain when it went bankrupt.
Well I'm actually being unfair. There's a few series by cracked that I enjoy. But after hours is definitely my favorite
I can agree to that.
benson55545 Hmmmm. I agree but have to ask my Psych if I can post that I do...
Oh ummm...never mind.
Awesome, I'm the perfect amount of drunk to rewatch so many of these gems. Rock on, mofos and mofettes.
Keep up with the After Hours, not the other stuff and PLEASE STOP mixing with CinemaSins!
they do one once a month
Hmm, CinemaSins....doesn't ring any...oh wait! They're the guys who do the joke about, uh, lap-dances and....not getting a lap-dance and....yeah that's pretty much all they do, isn't it?
tiakpark no you are wrong
Aku Kuparinen plays the pronoun game forcing me to ask who the hell he is talking to.
Wulfy013 *NO I CANT TELL YOU HERE*
I love After Hours, my favorite part of the Cracked skits. So awesome, please do more!! I have shown After Hours to friends, and sold them on subscribing to the channel, and I can't imagine that the prep/set costs are prohibitive :)
