I normally don't care for the "reaction videos" that much but this chick is actually worth watching... She's got a wonderful heart. And the fact that she made a reaction video to Laurel and Hardy, I'm sold!!
As a kid in the seventies, they showed old comedies every Saturday morning. I watched them all but especially Laurel and Hardy. I laughed so much. I dressed up like Stan for Halloween, but now I know I needed an Ollie for that. I love entertainer biopics. My jaw dropped when I found the trailer. This is FANTASTIC!!!. I can't wait! I haven't seen movies in years but this is an event! HURRY UP and GET HERE!
I will be the first in line TWENTY TIMES to see this film!! Literally a lifelong fan of L&H. What took 'em so long to make it? Here's another nice film they've gotten 'em into!!!
Loved them since I was a kid,I’m lucky I live near the place Stan was born and often walk passed his house in ulverston. I will be watching this on blue ray until my eyes bleed.
The filmmakers have called it a "love letter" to L&H, so I don't think you have to worry about it being contrived or a hatchet job. Sony Pictures, the US distributor, arranged for some early screenings (it was supposed to be a 2019 release) to qualify Reilly and Coogan for Oscar considerations. That tells me the performances must be very good indeed. I can't wait for this either; I LOVE Laurel & Hardy. Always have, always will.
It goes on general release on January 11th but the world premiere is in London on 21st October at the Cineworld, Leicester Square. There will also be simultaneous preview screenings by the BFI, at selected cinemas across the UK
It looks a wonderful movie, not only were they the greatest ever comedy double act , but they had a genuine warmth and a friendship for each other that lasted a lifetime. and hopefully it's a fitting tribute to the absolute giants of comedy ............... .......🎥🎭 .Laurel & Hardy 🍸🌻🎭🎥
I love this trailer so much! My dad and I had chills watching it. This is officially the movie I’m most excited for this year but I read that the wide release isn’t until January though 😞
I am 39 and remember as a kid watching VHS tapes of these guys back in the late 80's with my folks quite often. Back then you could even buy or rent them from Blockbuster video etc. Good stuff. In this movie they look almost identical to the real Stan & Ollie.
I also grew up with Oliver & Hardy! My dad would record their shorts when AMC would do a marathon and I watched them over and over. The Music Box still puts me on the floor. This was a lot heavier than I anticipated, but I cannot wait to see this!!!
Seen the film with my mother yesterday Loved every second So much good memories watching these as a child making me laugh so much. My great grandmother got to them during their tour of the uk. Even got their autographs and said they were the most happy and pleasant men she ever met. R.I.P to these Legends and the happiness they brought to so many people around the world
God, I just found out about this today and I am so emotional from watching it. So few of the younger generations after these guys were on regular syndication have ever heard of them. It makes you sad that such an iconic duo could be lost to the ages. I used to love watching their shorts on Saturday mornings in the 80's even more than cartoons. They had been dead long before I was born, but hearing people not know of them as my generation grows older was like they were dying all over again. Seeing this mainstream flick get this kind of attention and early talks of Oscar nominations is like them being brought back to life.
I just got done watching 'Stan & Ollie'. Wow!! I've never seen two actors embody the characters they're playing more, than John C. Reilly and Steve Coogan!! From their look to their voices and even the subtle little gestures. The story of their "friendship" was great, but the acting performances were AMAZING!! Those two are Laurel and Hardy doppelgangers!!
I can't wait to see the film bio of my favourite double act Stan and Ollie. The film clip depict a downfall of the two comics but it is the end that prevail victory during their tour of England and the world. Laurel and Hardy were too funny and sentimental for any of their fans old and new to shut the door on them. Yes the film showing next month is about the latter period of the duos career and the test of time gave them eternal laughter and happiness to all people in the world and in fact the film could only continue their successful legacy.
So happy you like these guys! A couple of my friends were consulted for this. So people who really know, are stating that the bickering never really happened between the two of them and that Stan was happy for Oliver to go off and make those two films without him. So far, that seems to be the only issue people are having with it. Otherwise it appears hardcore fans and experts alike are looking forward to it and expect it to be very good. Such a tricky thing to pull off too. Guess I'm going to have to finish my Stan documentary now finally as that will compliment this very well!
I guess they needed some kind of dramatic conflict, because Stan did NOT have an issue with Hardy's appearance in "Zenobia." (Hardy was still under contract to Hal Roach at the time, and refusing the role wasn't really an option.) That said, the trailer looks FANTASTIC, and as a L&H fanatic I can tell you I am VERY stoked. In all other respects it looks like a labor of love. I can't wait for this...
The other film that Oliver Hardy starred in without Stan Laurel, was the 1949 film, "The Fighting Kentuckian", which starred John Wayne. I have only seen parts of that film, but from what I have seen, Hardy did a laudable job in a supporting role as Wayne's sidekick in the film.
Sweet reaction! I think the trailer is fantastic. The actors looks really like them. When it comes to accuracy I am very confident as the BBC is involved in the production. Can't wait to see it!
I loved this reaction. :) I don't know if there are as many people who went into watching this trailer who shared the same passion for Laurel & Hardy as you.
It’s a shame not many are doing reactions to this trailer, because I think it’s fantastic. This is definitely the best reaction out there, thank you :)
I love the point where Rachel realizes this film isn't just going to be another superficial Hollywood product, but will have significant emotional depth. I hope it does for L&H what "Ed Wood" did for Bela Lugosi. That is, bring about a re-evaluation of their work, and some belated appreciation in the form of film restoration and preservation. UCLA is working on that now but they could use more funding, and it's long overdue.
I did not see any "Laurel And Hardy" short films on television until the 1990s, because local TV stations in the Cleveland and Youngstown-Warren, Ohio TV markets did not want to pay the high copyright fees that MGM and Viacom wanted them to pay. The Three Stooges got LOTS of airplay in our local TV market, because the comedy trio were badly managed when they signed their contracts with Columbia Pictures, and by the time Larry Fine and Moe Howard died in the early-1970s, Columbia Pictures were able to cut a deal with Viacom to charge very cheap copyright fees to the local TV stations.
The conflict was basically invented for the film, and Laurel didn't really resent Hardy making his solo film ZENOBIA(legend has it the film used Harry Langdon as a replacement for Laurel, but Langdon is only a supporting player in it. Billie Burke is really Hardy's co-star).
Just so you know, Rachel, I'm pretty sure the movie is only being shown next month at the British International Film Festival. The rest of us have to wait until January to see it. Great video, though. I'm looking forward to this one too.
My father used to record old Laurel and Hardy, Three Stooges and Abbot and Costello shorts on VHS too...lol. Our entertainment center was LOADED with them...
This has the potential to be a great dramatic film. "Stan And Ollie" depicts the comedy duo at a very vulnerable point in their careers, and their struggles to remain relevant in a changing entertainment industry., along with their own personal struggles, and their efforts to resolve ongoing disputes with each other. John C. Reilly IS Oliver Hardy in this film, and should earn an Academy Award and/or a Golden Globe Award for his performance in this film. Steve Coogan does a very credible performance as Stan Laurel. Perhaps he may win an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
I never got to see Laurel and Hardy in the theatres. I'm 65, and like the rest of us Baby Boomers, I discovered L&H on TV and immediately fell in love with them. I'm so amazed that someone as young as Rachel not only knows who Stan and Ollie are, but loves them so much. Watching her emotional reaction to the movie trailer moved me a great deal. Most people of her generation haven't the slightest idea who Laurel and Hardy are. I made sure to share my love of L&H with my kids. It's nice to know other parents are doing the same for their children. L&H's comedy is timeless and transcends cultures. People all over the world knew and loved L&H. May they always be remembered! Today's "comedy" of profanity and fart jokes doesn't come close to the wonderful, sweet comedy of this beloved duo.
at 1:31 that mustv'e been where they got the inspiration for "The Music Box", or it reminded them of their more successful years - as someone who lives in Los Angeles and is a big Laurel & Hardy fan, have you been to the Music Box steps in Silverlake? If you haven't, I suggest you make the pilgrimage, just to be there, taking the same steps as Stan & Ollie took was very surreal and mind blowing for me
I so agree. I remember as a little kid, my grade school principal had a film projector and he literally played Laurel and Hardy movies for us kids to watch at the auditorium. I remember laughing so hard and kids would look at me in astonishment especially "Way Out West." They are far, far better than the Three Stooges. I mean, Stooges were great to a degree but Laurel and Hardy were more than just humor, it was really about friendship and a sweetness about them, that child-like humor. And for years I have always wondered if they would ever make a movie about them and I was blown away from the trailer and the right actors they choose. Even the makeup artist did a fantastic job as they did with Winston Churchill without the digital effects. Amazing.
I can't wait for this movie but it's a little inaccurate especially the part about them playing to nearly an empty theatre. Every theatre they played on their UK tour sold out.
This is amazing, I used to watch Laurel and Hardy with my dad growing up. I'll never forget seeing the piano moving scene and traveling through the pipes. 👍👍 good grief, is John C Reilly actually Ollie?
I got to tell you that my reaction were pretty much like yours - excited and sad in the exacly same points. Since i know Laurel & Hardy since i was a kid and i know every little nouance of them, i hope they'll take care of these little details (alright i noticed a lot of them in the trailer)
I'm in Germany and i grew up with both, Laurel&Hardy and The Three Stooges. First two in 30-minutes-epusodes, the second as short-movies during a kids-show. Found and find both funny, but Laurel&Hardy were somehow closer to me. And i'm really looking forward to see this movie and really hope that there'll be a german release at the movies, too, and not just direct to DVD/Blu-ray. Although i won't watch it alone at the movies cause i'm darn sure that it will make me cry several times, so fortunately my boyfriend liked the trailer and will surely come with me :) I haven't seen a clip from you before, Rachel, just somehow stubbled across it while searching stuff around the trailer. And i guess that you kind of felt like me while watching the trailer. Emotions somewhere between happy smiling, being excided, but also being pretty close to crying cause the trailer is so touching. And yes... first i had a little doubt about Steve, too, but then he does some Stan-gestures and talks like Stan and i was "wow, it fits".
It looks good BUT Stan and Babe never had any moments of fighting like they show in the movie. Babe had bad health problems doing the filming of their final movie "Atol K" not while on tour
I grew up with Laurel and hardy too! I like the three stooges but Laurel and hardy were funnier in my opinion. I’m actually a member of the sons of the desert. My grandfather and dad showed them to be when I was in kindergarten. 24 years old now and I still love them ❤️
Rachel , you should check out this home footage of the 2 of them in 1956, this is just a couple of years after this movie is set in. Oliver had lost a lot of weight and looks just like an older John C Reily & Coogan looks just like Stan.
i know that Stan Laurel was the first to be on screen,but it took years to meet Oliver Hardy to make a duo.They were great together and made millions of people laugh. That is why society now lacks.
I’m confused though. John C. Has just done the sisters brothers, homes and Watson and then Stan and Ollie. They must be saving some serious money on his contract right now lol oh and wreck it Ralph lol they are keeping him in the buddy position. He was kinda lead in walk hard but I can’t really remember when anyone committed to just him for a movie lol
Hopefully they make one about Abbot and Costello. There is a 70s movie for TV (Bud and Lou), but wasn't very well received. Their story is a little more dramatic than Stan and Ollie's.
That's just dumb. "Non, je ne regrette rien" was written in 1956 by Charles Dumont and first recorded by Edith Piaf in 1960, while this movie is about the final UK tour of Stan and Ollie in 1953. Oliver Hardy died in 1957. There is absolutely no way that Stan Ollie could have had a conversation about that song.
The difference between the Three Stooges and Laurel and Hardy is, first: L and H characters really liked and loved each other in spite of themselves. They used the slow burn reaction....The Three Stooges had no love for each other in their act, it was constant action, agitation, and just plain meanness. Curly was the most lovable because he appealed to the audience. The Stooges most likely appeal to the male audiences and their need for for validating aggressive behavior similar their out of control adolescent testosterone drive and animal instincts. The Three Stooges had less of a chance to appeal to the more emotional female audiences than L and H. The relationship between those two was friendship and forgiveness. But I have seen women in my family try to make logic out of comedy that relies on slapstick and dumbness, and walk away frustrated. The first mistake is EVER trying to make logic out of any kind of humor. For Christ's sake, humor is based on chaotic situations, coverups, and stupidity. But some like Abbott and Costello better because they are more verbal. But often there was no love between the Abbott and Costello characters either. Abbott could be very mean physically and insulting to Costello too...they have only seen the famous Who's on First Routine and decide A and C are okay. Big soundbite type mistake.. However, it seems most women and male intellectuals cannot stand L and H unless they grew up watching Laurel and Hardy and understand the characters, NOT take them so seriously and understand them in the context of the era those characters lived in, which is so different from now. What if women asked "What if Laurel and Hardy were women instead of men?" The answer would be "Women would never be so stupid" Well, I remember Lucy and Ethel, Laverne and Shirley, Thelma and Louise etc. it;s all fiction for entertainment. HAHAHAH. Then there was the Marx Brothers..oh God, don't get me started...the movie producers did not know what to do with them they were so wacky....
They were the best duel comedy team ever. And when I watch this trailer it brings tears to my eyes.
Edward Winters Amen, sir!
uuummm, three stooges, dude
*dual. Duel is when they fight each other ....oh
Same.. but i saw the movie :)
Look at this......a young kid who was moved by some of the scenes of a duo who was way, way, WAY before her time.
Remarkable.
Nothing is really 'before your time' if it's still there to enjoy, I adore Laurel and Hardy as well as Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movies
I normally don't care for the "reaction videos" that much but this chick is actually worth watching... She's got a wonderful heart. And the fact that she made a reaction video to Laurel and Hardy, I'm sold!!

I haven't seen movies in years but this is an event! HURRY UP and GET HERE!
As a fan of the classic comedy duo of Laurel and Hardy, I am EXCITED as hell to see this movie
same here
I will be the first in line TWENTY TIMES to see this film!! Literally a lifelong fan of L&H. What took 'em so long to make it? Here's another nice film they've gotten 'em into!!!
I hope they don't screw it up. I am afraid it's going to be the Tabloid trash Chaplin was.
Loved them since I was a kid,I’m lucky I live near the place Stan was born and often walk passed his house in ulverston. I will be watching this on blue ray until my eyes bleed.
I’m with you Rachel, can’t wait for this film. I introduced my son to L&H when he was 4 years old and he loves them.
Laurel and Hardy are timeless.
Just love your reaction Rachel trying to hold it together, you can see how passionate you are of Stan and Ollie xx
I can’t get through the trailer dry-eyed. I expect the actual movie to level me. ❤️
I'm a big Laurel and Hardy fan myself. Can't wait to see this movie.
I almost start to cry when I saw that there was a trailer outhere of my favorite couple too. I''m SOOOO EXCITED
After Ollie died, Stan continued writing new material for them for the
rest of his life.
The filmmakers have called it a "love letter" to L&H, so I don't think you have to worry about it being contrived or a hatchet job. Sony Pictures, the US distributor, arranged for some early screenings (it was supposed to be a 2019 release) to qualify Reilly and Coogan for Oscar considerations. That tells me the performances must be very good indeed. I can't wait for this either; I LOVE Laurel & Hardy. Always have, always will.

on 21st October at the Cineworld, Leicester Square. There will also be simultaneous preview screenings by the BFI, at selected cinemas across the UK
Coogans expression at the end is so spot on. The film looks like a must see, I fear I’m gonna cry like a baby though!
It looks a wonderful movie, not only were they the greatest ever comedy double act , but they had a genuine warmth and a friendship for each other that lasted a lifetime. and hopefully it's a fitting tribute to the absolute giants of comedy ............... .......🎥🎭 .Laurel & Hardy 🍸🌻🎭🎥
the movie looks shit. proberly get 1 star out of 5
Can u tell me how end game ends
I think this movie will be really heartbreaking 😢❤ can't wait!!
It will be. I've watched several documentaries about them and there will be scenes that will make you cry and nearly break your heart :(
I love this trailer so much! My dad and I had chills watching it. This is officially the movie I’m most excited for this year but I read that the wide release isn’t until January though 😞
I am 39 and remember as a kid watching VHS tapes of these guys back in the late 80's with my folks quite often. Back then you could even buy or rent them from Blockbuster video etc. Good stuff. In this movie they look almost identical to the real Stan & Ollie.
Stan always said they were never jealous of each other and never argued.
Well...here's another nice mess you've gotten me into.
I also grew up with Oliver & Hardy! My dad would record their shorts when AMC would do a marathon and I watched them over and over. The Music Box still puts me on the floor. This was a lot heavier than I anticipated, but I cannot wait to see this!!!
Shame that a fan calls them “Oliver and Hardy”
"Me hate pianos? Why, I'm NUTS about 'em!" -- Billy "Sneezy" Gilbert
Seen the film with my mother yesterday
Loved every second
So much good memories watching these as a child making me laugh so much.
My great grandmother got to them during their tour of the uk.
Even got their autographs and said they were the most happy and pleasant men she ever met.
R.I.P to these Legends and the happiness they brought to so many people around the world
Glad to see I'm not the only one excited to see this movie. This is so awesome!
In my opinion people who like laurel and hardy are far from being dorks. You got to be a dork not to like them :)
God, I just found out about this today and I am so emotional from watching it. So few of the younger generations after these guys were on regular syndication have ever heard of them. It makes you sad that such an iconic duo could be lost to the ages. I used to love watching their shorts on Saturday mornings in the 80's even more than cartoons. They had been dead long before I was born, but hearing people not know of them as my generation grows older was like they were dying all over again.

Can't wait to see the film.
I can't wait to see the film bio of my favourite double act Stan and Ollie. The film clip depict a downfall of the two comics but it is the end that prevail victory during their tour of England and the world. Laurel and Hardy were too funny and sentimental for any of their fans old and new to shut the door on them. Yes the film showing next month is about the latter period of the duos career and the test of time gave them eternal laughter and happiness to all people in the world and in fact the film could only continue their successful legacy.

I cannot wait to see this .. a true story of real laughter kings !
Sweet reaction! I think the trailer is fantastic. The actors looks really like them. When it comes to accuracy I am very confident as the BBC is involved in the production. Can't wait to see it!
I almost cried myself. They looked amazing!! I can't wait to see it!

I love the point where Rachel realizes this film isn't just going to be another superficial Hollywood product, but will have significant emotional depth. I hope it does for L&H what "Ed Wood" did for Bela Lugosi. That is, bring about a re-evaluation of their work, and some belated appreciation in the form of film restoration and preservation. UCLA is working on that now but they could use more funding, and it's long overdue.
rackinfrackin defiantly. I can’t understand that in the few reactions on RUclips, some people have never even heard of Laurel and Hardy?
I did not see any "Laurel And Hardy" short films on television until the 1990s, because local TV stations in the Cleveland and Youngstown-Warren, Ohio TV markets did not want to pay the high copyright fees that MGM and Viacom wanted them to pay.

I got to see this movie, it made me laugh and cry.
It shows jealousy..they were never jealous of each others success or work. It's gonna be sad
Tremendous looking movie about the original and best comedy duo.
I too am a big fan of Stan and Ollie I even have the dvds too. would love to see this film.
I went to the theater to see this film... Awesome movie!
I thought it was an emotional trailer and your reaction confirmed it wasn’t just me feeling it ! You got a new subscriber
Just so you know, Rachel, I'm pretty sure the movie is only being shown next month at the British International Film Festival. The rest of us have to wait until January to see it. Great video, though. I'm looking forward to this one too.
My father used to record old Laurel and Hardy, Three Stooges and Abbot and Costello shorts on VHS too...lol. Our entertainment center was LOADED with them...
way out west there best movie ever classic
Way out West is actually a Stan Laurel Production, and was Stan's favorite all round film beginning to end.
This has the potential to be a great dramatic film. "Stan And Ollie" depicts the comedy duo at a very vulnerable point in their careers, and their struggles to remain relevant in a changing entertainment industry., along with their own personal struggles, and their efforts to resolve ongoing disputes with each other. John C. Reilly IS Oliver Hardy in this film, and should earn an Academy Award and/or a Golden Globe Award for his performance in this film. Steve Coogan does a very credible performance as Stan Laurel. Perhaps he may win an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.
I am so looking forward to this movie, looks amazing, i am such a big Laurel & Hardy fan.

Was a crackin movie - well worth a watch
Loved your enthusiasm ! Can't wait for this ! This will be anotha fine movie to see Ollie.
I can't wait for this movie but it's a little inaccurate especially the part about them playing to nearly an empty theatre.
Every theatre they played on their UK tour sold out.
My son is an extra in this movie, Steve coogan and John c Reilly served them chips after... fingers crossed all the kids make the finished product 😁
This is amazing, I used to watch Laurel and Hardy with my dad growing up. I'll never forget seeing the piano moving scene and traveling through the pipes. 👍👍 good grief, is John C Reilly actually Ollie?
I got to tell you that my reaction were pretty much like yours - excited and sad in the exacly same points.
Since i know Laurel & Hardy since i was a kid and i know every little nouance of them, i hope they'll take care of these little details (alright i noticed a lot of them in the trailer)
It depicts the Final tour of them before Hardy's Passing weeks after he came back to the US.
I worked on this production it was amazing to watch John go into the makeup Trailer and come out as Ollie
Apparently they never fell out in real life. It's just included for dramatic purposes.
CAN'T WAIT.
I'm in Germany and i grew up with both, Laurel&Hardy and The Three Stooges. First two in 30-minutes-epusodes, the second as short-movies during a kids-show.

YOU ARE ADORABLE RACHEL
There is a BBC film called Stan on You Tube in 4 parts that is an excellent biopic of them as well.
Comedy royalty! Great movie!
I grew up with Laurel and hardy too! I like the three stooges but Laurel and hardy were funnier in my opinion. I’m actually a member of the sons of the desert. My grandfather and dad showed them to be when I was in kindergarten. 24 years old now and I still love them ❤️
Lol. I used to record their movies on Turner classics.
Rachel, have you ever come across Stan Part 1, Stan Part 2, Stan Part 3 and Stan Part 4 on RUclips ? It's good and well worth a watch.
Rachel , you should check out this home footage of the 2 of them in 1956, this is just a couple of years after this movie is set in. Oliver had lost a lot of weight and looks just like an older John C Reily & Coogan looks just like Stan.
i know that Stan Laurel was the first to be on screen,but it took years to meet Oliver Hardy to make a duo.They were great together and made millions of people laugh. That is why society now lacks.
Their theme was The Cuckoos.
My favorites are Bud and Lou, but Stan and Ollie have a special place. The world is a lesser one without them.
Agree with you! 🤞🏽🤞🏽
She didn't get the Eiffel Tower gag, did she?
It's so cool
Excellent.
one film I must see
I love biopics and I love the classics!
they really did this movie right
Laurel and Hardy is one of my favorite comedy teams! next to the Three Stooges
Long overdue. If it is amazing, it is worth the wait. They deserve nothing less but amazing!
Have you ever seen the old Hanna Barbera cartoons of them?
..have you seen trailer 2# ? ..if you think this trailer is heavy,, see trailer 2.. looks great
I am very disapointed that this movie is not getting a wide release...
I’m confused though. John C. Has just done the sisters brothers, homes and Watson and then Stan and Ollie. They must be saving some serious money on his contract right now lol oh and wreck it Ralph lol they are keeping him in the buddy position. He was kinda lead in walk hard but I can’t really remember when anyone committed to just him for a movie lol
Miss u.. Haven't seen new videos in a while
Hope they do the same with abbot and Costello and the Marx bros,Harold lloyd.
Hopefully they make one about Abbot and Costello. There is a 70s movie for TV (Bud and Lou), but wasn't very well received. Their story is a little more dramatic than Stan and Ollie's.
OMG what are you on ?!
Waiting for your review of this movie
..john c rielly under rated actor.. boogie nights and chicago
Cant you scream a bit more?
Anyway the movie Stan and Ollie are great!
That's just dumb. "Non, je ne regrette rien" was written in 1956 by Charles Dumont and first recorded by Edith Piaf in 1960, while this movie is about the final UK tour of Stan and Ollie in 1953. Oliver Hardy died in 1957. There is absolutely no way that Stan Ollie could have had a conversation about that song.
I liked Laurel and Hardy and saw a little bit of 3 Stooges, but I mostly grew up on Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis.
The difference between the Three Stooges and Laurel and Hardy is, first: L and H characters really liked and loved each other in spite of themselves. They used the slow burn reaction....The Three Stooges had no love for each other in their act, it was constant action, agitation, and just plain meanness. Curly was the most lovable because he appealed to the audience. The Stooges most likely appeal to the male audiences and their need for for validating aggressive behavior similar their out of control adolescent testosterone drive and animal instincts. The Three Stooges had less of a chance to appeal to the more emotional female audiences than L and H. The relationship between those two was friendship and forgiveness. But I have seen women in my family try to make logic out of comedy that relies on slapstick and dumbness, and walk away frustrated. The first mistake is EVER trying to make logic out of any kind of humor. For Christ's sake, humor is based on chaotic situations, coverups, and stupidity. But some like Abbott and Costello better because they are more verbal. But often there was no love between the Abbott and Costello characters either. Abbott could be very mean physically and insulting to Costello too...they have only seen the famous Who's on First Routine and decide A and C are okay. Big soundbite type mistake.. However, it seems most women and male intellectuals cannot stand L and H unless they grew up watching Laurel and Hardy and understand the characters, NOT take them so seriously and understand them in the context of the era those characters lived in, which is so different from now. What if women asked "What if Laurel and Hardy were women instead of men?" The answer would be "Women would never be so stupid" Well, I remember Lucy and Ethel, Laverne and Shirley, Thelma and Louise etc. it;s all fiction for entertainment. HAHAHAH. Then there was the Marx Brothers..oh God, don't get me started...the movie producers did not know what to do with them they were so wacky....
Why are you yelling? Calm down.
I am looking forward to the film as well.i think the casting of steve coogan and John c Reilly is a brilliant choice
Cool video
