    The Great Outdoors was my family's favorite movie and we would always watch it together on summer trips

    The Great Outdoors was very funny! It always reminded me of our family camping trips in the 80s. You would think they were reviewing Gigli!!

      It's entertaining but not very good, and I saw it in the theater. I remember being really disappointed. Time has made it nostalgic for me.

    Who Framed Roger Rabbit is my all-time favorite movie and it just blows me away how they made that movie. God what a great movie and my son even loves it! Great Outdoors is hilarious and I loved John Candy and Dan Ackroyd worked so well together!

    Who Framed Roger Rabbit has held up as the best American film of 1988 (My Neighbor Totoro was the best overall).

    Loved watching these guys as a kid in the 80's but they often didn't get it with comedies and other young people movies. Great Outdoors was a great movie!

    Been watching these videos non-stop for the last month (I'm not American, never watched the show when it was originally airing) and I don't think I've ever seen such a positive review from either as the one for Roger Rabbit, they could hardly contain how amazed they were - and rightly so.
    Also, can you imagine them putting a character like Jessica Rabbit in a film made for kids today :) :) :), not a hope in hell

    • @jedijones
      @jedijones 3 года назад +2

      Yes, and the way they extended the review in the middle to analyze a scene, I don't know any other time when they did that when it wasn't a special episode focused on a specific topic. The fact that they said they're going back to see it again is also rare. At times they've said they were going to do that to try and understand a movie better but not so often just for pure entertainment. And when Ebert compares it to 2001, Close Encounters and E.T. you know he means business. Those movies were years old at this point. As for Jessica, the film wasn't exactly made for kids. It was released as a Touchstone film, not a Disney film. We have a lot of adult-oriented cartoons on TV now, but it's not really common for movies. I think it could still happen today. The biggest problem would be getting the rights to use all those toons in one movie. I think Ready Player One had a lot more problems getting different characters together than Roger Rabbit did...I'm pretty sure they had little to no cooperation from Disney.

    Somehow a random S&E review came up on my feed and I’ve been watching them while basking in the nostalgia. But this one kind of exemplifies how critics ruin movies. This movie (Great Outdoors) isn’t trying to be Citizen Kane or The Godfather. I wish “Hollywood” made movies as good as this today 🙄

      They weren’t clueless. They were both right about the Great Outdoors, I used to like it when I first saw it as a kid, but when I watched it again as an adult, I thought it was terrible. I just didn’t think anything was funny or entertaining besides a couple of gags. I don’t believe the film holds up at all.

    • @gspendlove

      In thinking about it, I realize I'm never going to not like The Great Outdoors, but it's far from John Candy or Dan Aykroyd's best work. It's a movie for juveniles. They might think it's funny. But there's something seriously wrong with any adult who thinks it's a great comedy.

    They were way too hard on "The Great Outdoors." I didn't care for it either, but they talk like it's the worst movie of the year.

    • @andyfilm5785
      @andyfilm5785  3 года назад +8

      Coming between Planes Trains & Automobiles and Uncle Buck, it's curious that one misfired so badly for Candy/Hughes. Honestly for me it was one of the worst movies of that year lol. I didn't like it when I was a kid, and I hadn't seen it in years, went back to it a few years ago -- and still think it's terrible. Charmless, unfunny, strained, and with obvious sections of it reshot in post-production. The "dramatic" component of it is non-existent as well.

      @@andyfilm5785 I remember renting it when it hit VHS and thinking it was really stupid. I think the director Howard Deutch has said he had never done a flat-out comedy before and had problems making the movie.
