In several interviews over the years, actor Marshall Teague who played Jimmy, said that the final fight between his character and Dalton, which took place down by the river was a real fight. He didn't like Swayze when he first arrived on set, because he said that Swayze basically ignored him for the first 2 weeks and he thought that he was a stuck up Hollywood douche. So during the beginning of the fight, Swayze lands a light kick on him and he mocked him for it. So the second take, Swayze lands a "freight train" of a kick on him, as he called it and he went flying. Teague, being a kickboxing champion from his Army days told Swayze "Now that's more like it" and the two of them went at it for real. The blood running down Teague's eye was from a real cut Swayze gave him from a round house kick and the log that Teague busted over Swayze's ribs breaking 2 of them, was a real log, not a prop and it wasn't in the script either, he just grabbed it and hit Swayze with it. They both had to go to the hospital after finishing the fight scene and both became good friends after that, having earned each other's respect.
Yes he was blind. Jeff Healey was a Canadian guitarist, singer and songwriter whose band sold millions of blues-rock records and who also pursued a passion for old-time jazz, ...Blind from early childhood due to retinoblastoma (a rare form of eye cancer), Jeff Healey's guitar playing virtuosity and soulful voice saw him rise to prominence in the entertainment world in the late 1980s and ‘90s selling millions of albums worldwide. Jeff Healey passed away on March 2nd, 2008 after a three-year battle with sarcoma cancer. He was 41-years-old.
I saw him a couple of times in concert and he was amazing. Also saw him do the national anthem before a WWE event in Toronto, and we showed our appreciation with a Road House chant.
Great musician. he had a couple hits in his time. "Angel Eyes" is probably his biggest sone, along with his version of "When My Guitar Gently Weeps". I remember reading that George Harrison complimented on his version of the song ( if I remember correctly, I think George also sang backup in the choras from the song).Loved his music, remember seeing him on The Tonight Show with Johny Carson as well as seeing him in a YT video playing with Stevie Ray Vaughn.
As a head bouncer who had worked at a lot of bars and events, I was respected by other bouncers in the city i live in for how i would handle confrontations and situations without resorting to violence and fighting. I would teach bouncers/doormen etc., that it doesn't matter how big and strong and big you are it is using your head to to work out to defuse the situation first. Me myself, working at one bar for 5 years had incidents only 3 times that turned ugly and got attacked. Otherwise, every other removal from the bar was walking the patron out on their own accord. So, what Dalton said about following 3 simple rules is pretty much the same as what we did lawfully using the acronym A.C.T or ACT. A- Ask the patron to leave the premises. C- Caution the patron if they refuse to leave, they will be Trespassed and removed by reasonable. force and/or arrested by buy the police. T- Trespassed and reasonable force is used to remove them from the premises and arrested ,barred from the premises (usually 2years) possibly charged by the police. As long as we follow those steps laid out, we are covered by the law as long as the bouncer doesn't just beat the patron up or the bouncer will be arrested and charged too. Every person who works as a bouncer/doorman/bodyguard/security guard here has to be licensed a C.O.A (Certificate of Approval) to show that they are competent to work in the security industry as a bouncer etc etc. And must carry and display it so the patrons and public wearer is security etc etc. The C.O.A details on the license is Photo, License number and date s from and to that is valid for.
Nobody can make an original anymore that's why they have to remake all the old classics. And the intelligent actors are all passed away so what we have left here is bottom of the barrel for all their remakes. Hollywood is lazy.
The whole time I was watching the new Road House, all I could think was, "I wish I was watching Road House instead," especially during the music scenes.
Patrick Swayze’s mother was a dance instructor, and her studio shared a building with a martial arts school. He studied both dance and martial arts for many years. By his own admission, he got into quite a few street fights when he was younger.
So the guy who had his throat ripped out, his name is Marshal Teague. You should watch interviews where he is talking about this movie. He and Patrick were throwing real punches in their fight, he cracked some of Patrick’s ribs with the log. He and Patrick also ended up good friends.
Jeff Healey Band was my best friend from high school's favorite band! All the girls, and some guys, I knew loved Roadhouse for Patrick Swayzee but she loved it for Jeff Healey! Hell of a guitar player!
As a guitarist I wouldn't necessarily say he's one of the greatest to ever live (don't get me wrong Jeff Healy is a badass, but there's a TON of legendary guitarists) I'm saying this with all due respect, playing guitar isn't a competition
Wade Garrett, the legend that taught Dalton all he knows, how does anyone not know this? ;-) I once saw Wade kill three men in a bar using nothing but his mustache. The results of that was that the judge forced him to either register it as a lethal weapon or shave it off. Sad day for coolers all over, it’s rumored to be treated as a day of remembrance in bouncers offices everywhere. In the immortal words of Peter Griffin… Road House. Edit: this is a Western, well, in the style of. Bad guy has control of the town, hired gun comes strolling in, townsfolk are all being beat up by the bad guy, hired gun helps the townsfolk remove bad guy, day is saved. It’s quite formulaic when you put that lens on it. The only real difference is the end, the drifter shouldn’t have gotten the girl, he was supposed to just ride off to the next town where it all happens again.
Listen, I'm in LOVE with Sam Elliot. My mom is a big Patrick Swayze fan. She had me watching his films from a young age. When I saw this movie at 10, I drooled over Sam Elliot. I'm 26 now and still feel the same. My mom is 68 and just laughs whenever we watch it together.
The guy that played Uncle Red, the Auto parts store owner is Red West. He was a longtime friend and bodyguard for Elvis Presley. He was a member of Elvis's Memphis Mafia.
One of my sister's all-time favorite movies. I watched it a lot with her growing up. She always pushed back at the idea of a remake even before one was announced. I always thought there'd be room for a remake that captures the essence of the original that's not as grimy. Maybe the Jake Gyllenhaal remake will be that, I don't know. Patrick Swayze was a god amongst men, and he's missed tremendously. May God rest his soul. Great reaction, guys.
Back in the 1990s my brother in law was exactly like Dalton. He knew lot about the bar business ran all the bars in Kearney Nebraska back in the 1990s. Kearney was the #1 party college in the USA. He had a bouncer that worked for him Curtis Harry that went to the 1994 winter Olympics in Lillehammer Norway with the Trinidad and Tobago, bobsled team.
I got married in 1989 and this movie came out the day before. My ex-wife actually made me take her to see this on her honeymoon because she was obsessed with Patrick Swayze. We divorced five years later but I still love the movie.😂
"You were at the theater. You paid the money. You found your seat because there was no assigned seating back then. You were there. That was it. You were there for the ride..." Most people saw this on cable and home video, so they could still change the channel if they wanted. Kevin Smith and his producer partner Scott Mosier did a DVD commentary track to this movie. In it, Kevin Smith tells the Chuck Norris jokes but substituting Dalton.
You're probably right. But the film was still a theatrical success at the time in a Kevin Smith kind of way. It was made for 15 million and grossed 60.
Bouncers are always unseen, until they need to unleash hell. Patrick Swayze was not a bouncer but the cooler. In charge of the bouncers, the bar and wait staff. Side note Red was one Elvis' bodyguards Red West also part of the Memphis Mafia (Elvis' posse). He also had a cameo in Tombstone, he was the stage coach driver
Did you noticed Benny Urquidez cameo while they crash car with the monster truck ? Also in recennt documentary on German/French Arte channel. Marshall R. Teague which is a military boxer veteran who fought Patrick said most of their punch and kick were real . That wood slash wasn't part ofthe script Marshall in the flow of action took it and breal 2 bones of Patrick in the process. Most of the Blood on their face is real.
Swayze had legit skills and a unique fighting style due to his dancing and martial arts background. It was put to good use in this film with Benny "The Jet" Urquidez as fight choreographer. For more Swayze fight scenes, check out Next of Kin, Steel Dawn, Point Break, Uncommon Valor, Black Dog. He fights a bit in Dirty Dancing and The Outsiders as well. Always does his own stunts during fight sequences. Not as pretty as Van Damme's high balet kicks, but still nice technique. A few steps up from Riggs on Lethal Weapon.
6:04 Morgan is played by legendary professional wrestler Terry Funk. One of the true legends of the business. If there had been a legit barfight with the entire male cast of this movie, the smart money would've been on Terry Funk to be the last man standing.
So I watched this so many times growing up. I usually don't like remakes. I watched the new Road House, and I liked it. It's similar but very different.
Yeah, we have a reaction out to that one as well. I liked it. It definitely doesn't have everything the original does, but I enjoyed it for what it was.
I used to do this work part-time. Our "cooler" recruited me because of my martial arts skill and my easy-going temperment. He wanted people who didn't take insults personally. I find it soooo cute that you guys are shocked by assholes.😂
Great experiences of back-to-back reactions to Roadhouse with both of you. Thanks for being fun and honest and enjoying the movie the way it's supposed to. It's got great stories behind how it was created but that comes later.
28:50 That scene where Patrick Swayze comes is the whole range of acting emotions. Struts in, laughs to see Sam Elliott laying sideways on the bar, jokes on having one beer too many, comes by to wake him, turns Sam over, just for the knife to just come into shot. That range starts from smiling, to shocked, to horror, glaring at a friend, sadness, mourning, shaking, pity with the hand, realising for removing the knife, calming gasping to relax, starting to tear in the right eye, licking the lips, hyperventilating clutching the knife, tear roll down whilst clasping the knife grip. Not saying a word that setup the whole ending.
Fun fact, Brad Wesley part of the plot was inspired by the real life guy Ken Rex McElroy in Skidmore Missouri. He terrorized the town in similar ways and the whole town killed him in the middle of the street then said they saw nothing and got away with it basically.
Have watched this film countless of times in the past 25 years or so and this is probably the most I've enjoyed it. By far my favorite reaction to It. Highly recommend 'Point Break' if y'all haven't watched it already.
The bouncer with the goatee in the start is Terry Funk. He is one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. He might not be the best known but to wrestlers, he's one of the GOATS. Her passed this year.
This is an 80s action film in it's purest form and I love every minute of it. I'm looking forward to the new one whenever I get a chance to watch it. I just wish it went to theaters like it should've.
I think Dalton not ripping Westley's throat out had more to do with the lady doctor's reaction to him doing it to the goon. He didn't want to see her reaction and the disgust and horror in her face again.
I think Achara brings that up in the discussion after the movie reaction and I realize she's right. Not EXACTLY what you said, but along the same lines.
I love this movie! I'm glad you guys are checking it out before seeing the new version. I have yet to see the new one, but it's hard to believe anyone could have topped Patrick Swayze in the roll. But, I'll give it a chance. Great reaction!!
Great Reaction Jaby and Achara! I have a suggestion for Achara! A Western The Sacketts with Sam Elliot and Tom Selleck! And the Actress who would become Sam Elliot’s wife! Kathrine Ross! Hopefully down the road you’ll give it a chance!🍿🙏🏻
Yes patric is trained in Martial Arts, so is most of the actors. Alot of the actots were either trained in boxing or martial arts. One of the guys in the bar fight when they meet the guys at the entrance is Benny the Jet Champion kickboxer and world record holder for fastest kicks and fastest knock with a kick
It was good for the time especially watching it on the big screen which was a huge thing back then. I was 19 yrs old and loved going to the movies with family and friends. I was working at the hospital, just graduated from high school and took a girl I was dating to go see this movie. Mullets were a thing and yes I had one down to my shoulders lol. I personally had fun watching it and she as well . Fun times. Stop with the remakes please! 😆 😎
Fun fact: Terry Funk & Sam Elliot were both 43-45 at the time of this movie was made so the line "mind your own business DAD" is surprisingly hilarious
It WAS phenomenal. The comments have all educated me on him. I edited out a part of the video where I flipped out over his playing the guitar sideways.
If you feel like you don't love Sam Elliott enough yet, please, watch "Conagher" (based on one of the amazing Louis L'Amour's novels). That's where I learned to love the man.
The I used to F guys like you in prison line is something you literally never hear a henchman say ever, and I’m here for it. I also love Ben Gazarra as this Chicago mobster who decided to just move out to the sticks and take over. He did bring the JC Penney there after all. Go to love Swayze, Kelly Lynch, and of course Sam Elliott. This is definitely self aware and so awesome for it:)
This should blow yer minds: In Road House, Ben Gazzara (B Wesley) refers to Dalton as "a Drifter". U guys mentioned Dalton NOT cursing much throughout, well in The Big Lebowski, Ben Gazzara basically repeats his "Gather unto me..." role as porn publisher Jackie "I want MINE!" Treehorn. Funny part is that Sam Elliot not only appears there as-well, "The Drifter", but ironically questions "The Dude" as to why he uses so many "CURSE-WORDS!" 😎
Snipes and Swayze as drag queens. They didn't get along during filming. I remember imagining what it would be like if they had actually tussled, given their backgrounds in martial arts.
It's a little unusual, but it's funny, entertaining, even heartwarming and has a good message. Drag queens stuck in a small midwestern town. The initial draw is seeing macho action stars in drag, but Swayze, Snipes and especially John Leguizamo take their roles seriously and are very convincing as drag queens. It's worth a watch. The only downside is that this was at the point of Swayze's career where his stardom was starting to fade. Brad Pitt was the next big thing by then.
Jeff Healey is really blind. When he was almost one year old, Healey lost his sight due to retinoblastoma, a rare cancer of the eyes. His eyes had to be surgically removed, and he was given ocular prostheses. He was an amazing blues/rock artist. He was also one of Stevie Ray Vaughn's favourite guitarists. And is a legend here in Canada
I took it out of the video, but I expressed a lot of enthusiasm for his playing the guitar sideways. After seeing all the comments, I wish I had left it in the video.
@@CinePals Might've been a nice touch, but you guys did a great reaction either way. I'd highly suggest watching some of Jeff's performance videos...just on your own time. (Unless you start doing music reactions too 😎😄) You shan't be disappointed.
Crazy how accurate his rules are. Some bouncers have been commenting on this video and I believe one said that all three rules are definitely the rules in real life.
Patrick Swayze is a trained dancer, I believe ballet. Dancing puts you in great condition for fighting, but if I remember correctly he trained with a fight coach for this movie.
*_YO!!!_* I was just thinking that Sam Elliot (playing Wade Garrett) cold be William Hurt's replacement for Thunderbolt Ross. Then I see he DID play him in the first Hulk movie in 2003.
A lot of the fight with the guy by the lake was real. He actually picked up a real log and broke it across Shwayze, actually hurting him and it wasn't part of the script. But Shwayze kept the fight going
In several interviews over the years, actor Marshall Teague who played Jimmy, said that the final fight between his character and Dalton, which took place down by the river was a real fight. He didn't like Swayze when he first arrived on set, because he said that Swayze basically ignored him for the first 2 weeks and he thought that he was a stuck up Hollywood douche.

True. Someone let Jaby know.
Yes he was blind. Jeff Healey was a Canadian guitarist, singer and songwriter whose band sold millions of blues-rock records and who also pursued a passion for old-time jazz, ...Blind from early childhood due to retinoblastoma (a rare form of eye cancer), Jeff Healey's guitar playing virtuosity and soulful voice saw him rise to prominence in the entertainment world in the late 1980s and ‘90s selling millions of albums worldwide.

An absolute master of the guitar and love his voice too. Had a chance to see him in the 90s, but sold the ticket :/ Regretted it ever since...

As long as we follow those steps laid out, we are covered by the law as long as the bouncer doesn't just beat the patron up or the bouncer will be arrested and charged too.
Every person who works as a bouncer/doorman/bodyguard/security guard here has to be licensed a C.O.A (Certificate of Approval) to show that they are competent to work in the security industry as a bouncer etc etc. And must carry and display it so the patrons and public wearer is security etc etc.
The C.O.A details on the license is Photo, License number and date s from and to that is valid for.
The music by Jeff Healy is one of the reasons this original will never get outshined. No matter how many remakes there are.
Nobody can make an original anymore that's why they have to remake all the old classics. And the intelligent actors are all passed away so what we have left here is bottom of the barrel for all their remakes. Hollywood is lazy.
remake sucked - trailer
The whole time I was watching the new Road House, all I could think was, "I wish I was watching Road House instead," especially during the music scenes.
"Next of Kin" is a good Swayze film with Liam Neeson, Bill Paxton, Helen Hunt, Adam Baldwin & Ben Stiller.
A great movie. I loved it.
Patrick Swayze’s mother was a dance instructor, and her studio shared a building with a martial arts school. He studied both dance and martial arts for many years. By his own admission, he got into quite a few street fights when he was younger.
being in dance class as a guy does that with peers
Ah that makes sense.
What a savage
Probably threw them a serious ass kicking
The actor who played the part of Red, was a close friend of Elvis Presley, and was also one of his bodyguards.
Oh that's wild.
This movie is a classic. It has such a massive following long after swayze snd Gazzara have passed away.
I think that's awesome that it does.
So the guy who had his throat ripped out, his name is Marshal Teague. You should watch interviews where he is talking about this movie. He and Patrick were throwing real punches in their fight, he cracked some of Patrick’s ribs with the log. He and Patrick also ended up good friends.
They were trained by Benny The Jet Urquidez.
The one thing that always cracked me up about this movie is the same five guys getting their asses kicked about twenty times. 🤣🤣
Jeff Healey Band was my best friend from high school's favorite band! All the girls, and some guys, I knew loved Roadhouse for Patrick Swayzee but she loved it for Jeff Healey! Hell of a guitar player!
Oh that's cool!
I’m a 90’s kid but man I love this movie. Absolute classic.
Must watch Mask if you want to see Sam Elliot in a perfect role.
I forgot he was in that!
The one with Cher, not the one with Jim Carrey.
3:15 Jeff Healy was blind, and was one of the greatest guitar players that ever lived
Yeah, learning in that in the comments.

Benny "the Jet" Urquides was the fight choreographer for this one.
I met three or four times. He's one of the NICEST guys in the world.
Patrick is also great in Point Break.
Need to watch that still!
@@CinePalsYes you must see it!
@@CinePalsCool
@@CinePalsyes guys please because you have Patrick Swayze and Keanu Reeves in a great action movie. You guys would ❤ it, am sure of that.

Yeah Cody (Jeff Healey) the guitarist Dalton (Patrick Swayze) was talking too was blind in real life too R.I.P Jeff Healey and Patrick Swayze
Didn't know! Thank you.
I got married in 1989 and this movie came out the day before. My ex-wife actually made me take her to see this on her honeymoon because she was obsessed with Patrick Swayze. We divorced five years later but I still love the movie.😂
It’s literally been forever since I’ve seen this movie Patrick is the man
Ghost is my favorite from him.

Always does his own stunts during fight sequences. Not as pretty as Van Damme's high balet kicks, but still nice technique. A few steps up from Riggs on Lethal Weapon.
Ben Gazzara was absolutely convincing as Wesley. One of his best roles!
Unless you count Bridge at Remagen.
Terry Funk was a legendary hardcore pro wrestler who clearly got paid well to make both Swayze AND Stallone (Over the Top) look good.
I think John Dalton is really Johnny Castle from Dirty Dancing trying to resolve his PTSD from seeing Baby in the corner.
👌
Now I really need to see Dirty Dancing.
6:04 Morgan is played by legendary professional wrestler Terry Funk. One of the true legends of the business. If there had been a legit barfight with the entire male cast of this movie, the smart money would've been on Terry Funk to be the last man standing.
That's cool. Must have been before my time as I didn't have the chance to see him as a wrestler.
@@CinePalsHe died last year in the same week as Bray Wyatt.
He wrestled up until 2022. He was tough as nails.
In the beginning they are ready said," Dalton ripped out some ones throat.
"Jimmy" later appears as a shuttle commander in 'Armageddon'.
He didn't do so well.
So I watched this so many times growing up. I usually don't like remakes. I watched the new Road House, and I liked it. It's similar but very different.
Yeah, we have a reaction out to that one as well. I liked it. It definitely doesn't have everything the original does, but I enjoyed it for what it was.

yes patrick was a real martial artist and a dancer
sam is the best in everything he's in and it's rarely close
Good luck with the new one. Im good with this one.
I enjoyed both. :)
Great experiences of back-to-back reactions to Roadhouse with both of you. Thanks for being fun and honest and enjoying the movie the way it's supposed to. It's got great stories behind how it was created but that comes later.
"It's just fun" exactly. It's a fun 80's movie, which is how you can identify most 80's and 90's movies...just fun We need more fun movies these days.
When Jeff Healey died, I thought about "Roadhouse". This movie was supposed to be his ticket & it kinda was. He made great music!
This is the only version of Roadhouse! End of!
Ditto!
Pain don’t hurt = If you accept it hurts it will cease to hurt
I'm just a wuss. Pain = lots of hurt please make it stop.

Yes Patrick swayze is trained in martial arts he's trained in wushu taekwondo and aikido.
With a background in dance also. He had a lot of coordination and agility.
@@Bayougirl78 yes I knew about his dance background just answering the question they asked is he martial arts trained.
This is an 80s action film in it's purest form and I love every minute of it. I'm looking forward to the new one whenever I get a chance to watch it. I just wish it went to theaters like it should've.
The Guy that Played the Bouncer Morgan, is none other than Terry Funk he was a professional wrestler
Sam Elliott and his epic mustache!!😂
forgot the guy was a real lady killer 😄
I just realized I'm older now than Sam Elliott was when this movie was made. Oh well. -___________-
Those realizations are always brutal.
I think Dalton not ripping Westley's throat out had more to do with the lady doctor's reaction to him doing it to the goon. He didn't want to see her reaction and the disgust and horror in her face again.
I think Achara brings that up in the discussion after the movie reaction and I realize she's right. Not EXACTLY what you said, but along the same lines.
The bouncers in the beginning of the movie mentioned him ripping someone’s throat out but you were talking
Yeah... they tend to talk through a lot of crucial points in this movie.
We got it still.
@@CinePals OK! 👍
I love this movie! I'm glad you guys are checking it out before seeing the new version. I have yet to see the new one, but it's hard to believe anyone could have topped Patrick Swayze in the roll. But, I'll give it a chance. Great reaction!!
Thanks. Hope you enjoy this and the reaction to the new one when it comes out.
Great Reaction Jaby and Achara! I have a suggestion for Achara!
A Western The Sacketts with Sam Elliot and Tom Selleck!
And the Actress who would become Sam Elliot’s wife! Kathrine Ross! Hopefully down the road you’ll give it a chance!🍿🙏🏻
This movie is a masterpiece and I’m not even joking 😂 the dialogue cracks me up it’s wild
Yes patric is trained in Martial Arts, so is most of the actors. Alot of the actots were either trained in boxing or martial arts. One of the guys in the bar fight when they meet the guys at the entrance is Benny the Jet Champion kickboxer and world record holder for fastest kicks and fastest knock with a kick
It was good for the time especially watching it on the big screen which was a huge thing back then. I was 19 yrs old and loved going to the movies with family and friends. I was working at the hospital, just graduated from high school and took a girl I was dating to go see this movie. Mullets were a thing and yes I had one down to my shoulders lol. I personally had fun watching it and she as well . Fun times.
Stop with the remakes please! 😆 😎
Fun fact: Terry Funk & Sam Elliot were both 43-45 at the time of this movie was made so the line "mind your own business DAD" is surprisingly hilarious
Not to mention that despite the grey, Elliot actually looks younger than Funk!
The guy named red is the guy who taught Elvis karate and also his bodyguard
4:43 It's the banjo player dude from the SNES Phalanx box cover! 😍
so by now I'm sure someone has pointed out that Jeff Healy is really blind but his guitar playing is phenomenal .
It WAS phenomenal. The comments have all educated me on him. I edited out a part of the video where I flipped out over his playing the guitar sideways.
The Great Terry Funk was the bouncer that got fired and told there os always barber college. He is an old school wrestling legend.
If you feel like you don't love Sam Elliott enough yet, please, watch "Conagher" (based on one of the amazing Louis L'Amour's novels). That's where I learned to love the man.
Cool the guy in the Green Shirt is Pro Hardcore Wrestler Legend Terry Funk. Terry Funk also played in Over The Top, guest starred in Quantum Leap.
"They're not all the same, Achara."🙄
DEAD.
hahaha
Patrick Swayze's mom ran a dance school :)
That makes sense!
“Now he’s a philosophiser” 😂 11:33
In RL He Tried So Hard to Find A Cure.All Over The World.I Miss You BRO! Ill Never Forget You..
Fun fact:These Arms of Mine has been used in two Swayze movies for the exact same type of scene.
The store owner Red is Red West who was Elvis Presley's bodyguard. He usually played henchmen in the 80's.
Oh interesting. Cool to know! Thanks.
The I used to F guys like you in prison line is something you literally never hear a henchman say ever, and I’m here for it. I also love Ben Gazarra as this Chicago mobster who decided to just move out to the sticks and take over. He did bring the JC Penney there after all. Go to love Swayze, Kelly Lynch, and of course Sam Elliott. This is definitely self aware and so awesome for it:)
Mike Tyson says stuff like that in real life, or at least he used to.
I can literally listen to Samuel Elliott talk to me all day long!
This should blow yer minds:
In Road House, Ben Gazzara (B Wesley) refers to Dalton as "a Drifter".
U guys mentioned Dalton NOT cursing much throughout, well in The Big Lebowski, Ben Gazzara basically repeats his "Gather unto me..." role as porn publisher Jackie "I want MINE!" Treehorn.
Funny part is that Sam Elliot not only appears there as-well, "The Drifter", but ironically questions "The Dude" as to why he uses so many "CURSE-WORDS!" 😎
ya boys genuine laughing makes this reaction great. LOL
Glad you had a good time!
@@CinePals Always
If you want a completely different Swayze role, watch "To Wong Fu, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar".
I remember seeing ads for that as a kid. Have yet to watch it. Wesley Snipes as well, right?
Snipes and Swayze as drag queens. They didn't get along during filming. I remember imagining what it would be like if they had actually tussled, given their backgrounds in martial arts.
@@shawnsiref9271oh that’s too bad. But they managed to make a fun film?
It's a little unusual, but it's funny, entertaining, even heartwarming and has a good message. Drag queens stuck in a small midwestern town. The initial draw is seeing macho action stars in drag, but Swayze, Snipes and especially John Leguizamo take their roles seriously and are very convincing as drag queens. It's worth a watch.
The only downside is that this was at the point of Swayze's career where his stardom was starting to fade. Brad Pitt was the next big thing by then.
Jeff Healey is really blind.
When he was almost one year old, Healey lost his sight due to retinoblastoma, a rare cancer of the eyes.
His eyes had to be surgically removed, and he was given ocular prostheses.
He was an amazing blues/rock artist. He was also one of Stevie Ray Vaughn's favourite guitarists.
And is a legend here in Canada
I took it out of the video, but I expressed a lot of enthusiasm for his playing the guitar sideways. After seeing all the comments, I wish I had left it in the video.
@@CinePals
Might've been a nice touch, but you guys did a great reaction either way.
I'd highly suggest watching some of Jeff's performance videos...just on your own time. (Unless you start doing music reactions too 😎😄)
You shan't be disappointed.
I'm a supervisor for a private security company, and I tell my people to remember Rule 3, all the time.
Crazy how accurate his rules are. Some bouncers have been commenting on this video and I believe one said that all three rules are definitely the rules in real life.
"hey there, hello" lmao. Now I want a remake with all Ryan Georges.
Fun fact the old guy that played red was Red West Elvis Presley body guard.
Patrick Swayze is a trained dancer, I believe ballet. Dancing puts you in great condition for fighting, but if I remember correctly he trained with a fight coach for this movie.
Ballet is TOUGH. I studied it for a while. Harder than any martial arts style I studied.
@@CinePals
Which martial arts have you studied???
Hi. A Great 80's movie Staring Patrick Swayze 1983 movie "Uncommon Valor". It's a great movie.
*_YO!!!_* I was just thinking that Sam Elliot (playing Wade Garrett) cold be William Hurt's replacement for Thunderbolt Ross. Then I see he DID play him in the first Hulk movie in 2003.
The same song was used in both 'first time ' scenes in this and Dirty Dancing.
You guys should react to Jeff Healy see the light.He was the blind guy in the movie.He was a great guitarest.
The bar owner was played b Kevin Tighe who became well known as Roy DeSoto in the hit tv show Emergency! Which was about the birth of the paramedics.
Oh cool to know.
He was also in Lost and Eight Men Out.
great, i subbed you two because of this
Cobra Kai's stunt team also loves crescent and hook kicks! Johnny's signature spinning outside crescent kick is pretty though!
there's a kid on young sheldon that looks EXACTLY like patrick his name is montana jordan
A lot of the fight with the guy by the lake was real. He actually picked up a real log and broke it across Shwayze, actually hurting him and it wasn't part of the script. But Shwayze kept the fight going
27:55 - no, this is murder. In real life Dalton would spend the rest of it in prison. Because he initiated the pursuit that ended in a violent death.
it's a movie, relax
That guy was REALLY dancing LOL
Sam Elliott was great in Tombstone also
@15:10 Patrick Swayze did smoke a lot and it lead to his cancer which claimed his life on September 14, 2009.
