One of my favorite movies as a kid. No one used John Candy's talent better than John Hughes. He really saw beyond just the comedy ability to Candy's true and usually untapped talents. Only the Lonely really showcases what Candy is capable of as a leading man and we see that potential for preformances with depth in certain scenes here as well. What a great talent Candy was and what a great writer John Hughes was.
Candy played believable three dimensional characters... So many "comedy" actors overplay things and can be annoying. And yes Hughes really knew how to play to John's strengths.
Unfortunately nowadays it's starting to get hard to find family movies because Hollywood is trying to ruin them with homosexuality, transgender, devilish things, to indoctrinate our children😢 I don't care who you wanna be. I wish Hollyweird would Just leave the kids alone.
Amen my friend perfectly said. I grew up in the 80’s too and did the same thing with my family. I remember watching national lampoon’s vacation quite a bit too lol.
I think you guys would really like Grumpy Old Men. It's so funny and has two amazing actors you're probably not familiar with... Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, and one you are familiar with Burgess Meredith, who played Mickey in Rocky.
That bear hadda BIG OL' BWUTT!! Too bad Jay and Amber didn't show that part nor show the bear bouncing on the door with Chet under it. OMG!! They left out and cut up so many good parts, like they had some inept person editing this one in a rush. This isn't like their other vids. This was awful!!
The song at the end, that Dan Akroyd was dancing to is by; Wilson Pickett. It's called "Land of a 1,000 dances" and you did a reaction to it like a year ago. 😃
The actress playing the wife of John Candy is absolutely hysterical. She is so funny and is an actress who deserved more and better roles than she was given. Whatever she did she was a joy to watch. You'll recoginze her as Max's mom from Hocus Pocus. I love her to pieces.
"Go find yourself a Spin Cycle!" Yes! I am so glad you guys finally watched this movie. I watch it every summer with the whole family. And most of all I'm happy that you liked it too.🎥💖
I cant imaging going through life without John Candy in it. There's not a single movie he's been in regardless of the size of the role that I don't adore. From the stories that are told of him off screen about how he truly was the kindest, most generous, sweetest man anyone could meet. We miss you John but will never forget you.
I have read a story of some movie that he was on(I can't remember which one)where he showed up and the backstage crew thought that he was a new hire for the crew and asked him to move some heavy objects around. Instead of having a major ego-trip("Don't you know who I am. I could have you fired."),he happily helped out and didn't try to embarrass the crew members. Very humble and easygoing guy.
Absolutely a classic! Love this movie. Summer Rental is also a great Candy film. 😂 In upstate New York, especially in the central Adirondacks, it was quite common to go to the local dump to watch the bears. We use to go all the time visiting Piseco Lake except we didn’t throw Zagnuts to the bears. Lol Great times growing up in the 70s and 80s.
I loved this film so much as a kid. My Dad and I used to rent it from the video store multiple times every summer. A couple of times we brought the TV out on the back porch at his house and camped out there and watched this movie. John Candy was such a treasure and I think I miss him more than any other actor that we’ve lost.
FYI, the dancing at the end was the actual cast party at the end of filming. They took a camera in, filmed, and decided to include it in the movie credits.
“You wouldn’t know a good time if it fell out of the sky, landed on your face and started to wiggle.”😂 I have loved this movie since I saw it theatrically.👍
The Great Outdoors was a "classic". Sure, it isn't going to win an Academy Award, but it was a lot of fun with lots of laughs. I remember seeing my first bears in the great outdoors at an open pit dump in the UP of Michigan. I thought is was great, but my sisters freaked out because the bear was next to our car. Never saw a guy on crutches move so fast when he got too close to some cubs and the mama bear didn't like it! And in the Great Lakes region, yellow perch are considered a delicacy. They may not be big, but they are delicious.
This reminds me of my parents and sister. In a cabin in the Smoky Mountains, watching “The Great Outdoors” VHS tape together. Eating snacks, sitting by the fireplace. It was amazing.
You both are gonna watch Pulp Fiction?! Ok you’re in for an experience. I definitely can’t wait to see your reaction. The movie is very violent in certain scenes, but the story lines and acting are incredible. I really hope you enjoy it.
One of my favorites. Underrated gem. FYI- for bears, if it's black, fight back. Brown, lay down. If it's white, your about to see the light. Never run from a bear, they will think your food.
June 1988: I spent my birthday at Bass Lake, where this movie was shot. My father wanted to be the cool dad, so he showed us how to use a rope swing. The rope snapped on the way down, and he hit 3 inches of water, breaking his back for the second time on a birthday of mine. I always remember that story when I think of this movie. P.S. I got a bicycle for my birthday that year after the trip in the ambulance.
I forgot all about this movie until now. What a classic. If you havent seen "Cool Running". That is a great John Candy movie. Also, if you want to watch a great movie of ppl who are out of place. " City Slickers" with Billy Crystal and Daniel Stern is an amazing one
After Jordan talking about how he hates birds does anyone else think it would be great to see Amber and Jordan react to Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Birds" from 1963
If you guys haven't already, I would highly suggest Spaceballs, it's another John Candy gem. I cried the day he passed, he was a favorite in my house growing up. He was also in Blues Brothers with Dan Aykroyd, he played Detective Mercer.
Did you miss the post credit scene with the raccoons? They had a joke about the bear being bald on both ends. My father had an old saying: “Bare assed bear goes potty in the woods” so he loved that joke.
This was my favorite movie when I was a kid. I loved it! So hilarious! Dan Aykroyd is the best… it’s what I do, it’s what I do! I still say that to this day! 😂
YES!!!! This is my favorite JC movie!!! I think its because we use to go to our cottage every summer and stuff like in the movie would happen...sooooo good!!!! RIP John Candy❤ Also, the song at the end is called The Land of a Thousand Dances by Wilson Pickett
Another 80s comedy you both might like is Spies Like Us, starring Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase. As for Tarantino, there is no way to ease into his movies. Most of us discovered him from watching Pulp Fiction, and i would advise that is also where you two should start. His movies are violent and gory (although sometimes the overuse of violence and gore adds an almost comical touch)but always an interesting and fun ride. There is nothing to fear from Tarantino movies and you will love the ride.
The song they were dancing to at the end of the movie is "Land Of A Thousand Dances" by Wilson Pickett (link below). Wilson Pickett is definitely worth diving into! He was renowned as an energetic and intense performer during the 60s and 70s. He gained international fame with hits like “Land of 1,000 Dances”, “In the Midnight Hour”, and "Mustang Sally", and became one of the biggest black music stars of the 1960s and 1970s. Great movie reaction! Thanks you two! ✌💙✌ Land Of A Thousand Dances - ruclips.net/video/3mz_EXHKGHs/видео.html
@@faithnyou1732 No, you're both wrong. Pickett came up via NYC's Atlantic Records, recording in Muscle Shoals, AL and Memphis, TN, with the The Swampers and Booker T. and the MGs. Motown was based in Detroit at the time. He didn't make a record for Motown until 1987. Many, many other influential Black R&B artists in the '60s and '70s came out of that area along the Mississippi: Otis Redding, Percy Sledge, The Staple Singers, Sam and Dave, Isaac Hayes, etc. _Motown_ is not a generic term for R&B/Soul music from the '60s. Every successful studio had its own "sound" and house players, from LA to Philadelphia, to NYC. Motown was a just a part of that tapestry. An important part, but just a part.
@@rollomaughfling380 - I'm not wrong in anything I said. I never said he was part of Motown, the other commenter said that, nor did I say anything about Motown being a "generic" term for R&B/soul music. It's also true that during the 60s/70s, while it may not have been the only studio, Motown was the "IT" studio.
@@faithnyou1732 Excuse me? Literally copied from what you both said: @markschwieterman2296: "Motown he was part of Motown back in the 60s and 70s" YOU: "So were most black artists at that time." You're way out of your depth, talking misinformed nonsense. "Motown was the "IT" studio . . ." Stop embarrassing yourself.
Back in the early, 90's when I lived in W. Central Arkansas. I took care of a couple month old black bear cubs who's mamma got killed, for 2 weeks, until DNR came and picked them up. It was a lot of fun!
Guys, for your next John Candy film, please do COOL RUNNINGS, its about the 1988 Jamaican bob sled team in the 88 Olympics and its based on a true story, the film came out in 93, I believe, John plays the coach, it is very uplifting, I think you guys woud love it!
Pulp Fiction is super entertaining, but rough language and dark themes. However, the huge ensemble cast all put in great performances. Such a pop-culture icon you have to see it.
Love this movie, so funny!! And what a cast!! Wilson Picket singing Land of 1000 Dances at the end! Cherry on top!! The bat scene always kills me! 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤
This was my dad’s favorite movie. Every time they showed the bear’s butt he would absolutely LOSE it 😂 He passed away 30 years ago almost to the day so this was a treat to watch you watch his favorite in his memory ❤
As someone has said 1991 film "My Girl" it was a big film at the time with dan Aykroyd and many other famous actors. But its a drama rather than his usual comedic roles. You see a different side to him and a great way to see the 70's.
A fish called wanda, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and There's Something about Mary are a Must. A Fish Called Wanda has 2 Monty Python actors in it. It was my fav movie for a long time.
Love this movie, so glad you guys watched this one! We need to get Gross Point Blank on the watchlist. John Cusack and Dan Akroyd in a comedy/action/romance with one of the best soundtracks!
Love the great outdoors and summer rental. Watch them every summer. As a Tarantino fan I will say I think Pulp Fiction is the mildest one of his movies. It is also IMO one of his best. His movies aren’t for PC heavy people who offend easy so just remember that as you go into it. Some great performances in that movie if you can overlook the 5 or so scenes that offend easily offended people
Yeah, they asked what movie would ease them into Tarantino, and I thought well, Pulp Fiction is the easiest one to start with. All his movies are ... difficult for sweet, innocent souls like theirs. They will love the music in it, though, and it is an amazing movie despite the violence and rough scenes (trying to not give anything away).
Awesome Friday Jay and Amber!! Since ya love the classics, I gotta recommend "Scavenger Hunt (1979)" and the star-studded "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad World" and "Summer Rental" (John Candy)
I lived there while they filmed this movie. The restaurant was a real thing, it burned down years later. They built the cabin just for the movie and knocked it down after filming. Bass Lake in Oakhurst California just outside Yosemite.
I agree with the recommendations for Cool Runnings, it’s a fun movie based on real events. And John Candy plays the coach. As for Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino movies are known for a lot of swearing and violence but he doesn’t linger on anything for too long (as far as I can remember) and there’s comedy sprinkled in to make it more palatable..I’m sure you guys will be fine.
Goodday, Jay and Amber! Hope you all are having a great weekend! I HIGHLY recommend y'all watch/react to "Leon: The Professional" (1994). It stars Gary Oldman, Natalie Portman (who played Padme in the Star Wars films), Jean Reno, and Danny Aiello. This is one of the best movies ever made!
Yeah Guys, when I was a kid we went to northern Wisconsin every summer for vacation. When I was little we did the dump thing watching the bears dig through the garbage with a ring of cars around the high side with the headlights on. There was a pinball arcade on main street and go carts and mini bikes on the edge of town. Horse riding stables and places to rent boats and all kind of stuff. Going fishing with the small boat that came with the cabin. We usually used worms for bait but sometimes we would get leeches or minnows. There was and probably still is a place called Paul Bunyans that the restaurant in the movie is imitating. That was in the 60's and 70's. Everything has changed. You can't get into the dump unless you can prove you're a local resident, the arcade is gone, and the town has traffic lights and a mall. There was a stop sign at each end of town when I was a kid. And yes when I reached high school age I had a Cammy only she was staying at the same resort, not a local girl. Plus it was a three room cabin with a wood stove for heat not a two story lodge.
This movie brings back nice memories. My older half-sister use to stay with us a few weeks every summer when we were young. She would take me to the movies all the time when she visited, this is one of the movies we watched.
Now that you've mentioned how much you love birds, allow me to suggest you react to the Alfred Hitchcock classic "The Birds" (1963). It should be right up your alley. A must see for all bird lovers.
You should watch Dan Aykroyd in Driving Miss Daisy. Completely flips the script. It's a GREAT movie with Morgan Freeman. And I'm not sure, but have you seen vacation? It just reminded me when you said the luggage falling off the roof. Also, John Candy in Splash. Not sure if you've seen that one yet.
When I was a kid in Michigan we would vacation in the Upper Peninsula. There was no tv, radio, and obviously no cellphones. Every night at sunset we would drive to the dump, turn on the headlights and watch the bears. That was our #1 form of entertainment.
John Candy and Dan Aykroyd at their finest. Absolutely brilliant. If you like this, you will enjoy films by Savage Steve Holland, mainly One Crazy Summer and Better Off Dead. Another John Candy "vacation" movie you would like is Summer Rental.
Been a sub here for only about a month and have watched about 20 or so of their reaction vids. Something is a miss here with this one. I'm only 14min in and it seems like they cut out the funniest scenes, that they were reacting to and left partial nothing-scenes. They haven't done that before. I don't know anything about YT vid-editing but did they accidentally dump their good clips or something and may have rushed to get this one out?? It just seems all out of whack and out of context. My wife had to ask me what was funny about the two brothers in the bunkbeds and she asked me what Amber meant by "Suck My Wake", cause they didn't show it and she didn't understand about the old deadguy cause it wasn't shown and Chet eating the Ol' 96'r wasn't shown either. Just curious if there was a problem editing it. They even cut out when Roman said, "Chet ate the Nag" and "It's been touchin' ya for 20 years". 🤣I'm not hacking on Jay and Amber in any way, but it just seems odd like their cousin sloppily edited it.
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT You're not wrong. I noticed the same things, and it occurred to me very early on that they were reacting to something they hadn't even seen yet, like the hood ornament on Roman's car. And then they were one or two clips behind for the rest of the film. And like you said, most of the clips weren't even of anything relevant.
A John Candy classic, love this movie so much (I watch it every summer). Other Candy classics you have to watch include "Who's Harry Crumb?" "Summer Rental", and "Canadian Bacon"
Thanks for this! You might want to recheck the editing -timing was off on this one, and a lot of the scenes the lines to the jokes were cut off. (Unlike all of your other reactions). Take care, guys!

@michaeldorsey1394 one of our family favs is Christmas Vacation every year too 🤗
I know, right?! I miss those days. 💖
I did with my family and friends too. I was born in 83 and still love it. Sending good vibes from Southern Maryland!
I think you guys would really like Grumpy Old Men. It's so funny and has two amazing actors you're probably not familiar with... Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, and one you are familiar with Burgess Meredith, who played Mickey in Rocky.
I second this motion
Hell yeah!
Y’all got that right lol
Yes!! I suggested that so long ago. I hope it’s on the list!
Love that movie! They should really add it to their must watch list. :)
RIP, John Candy. ",Big..big...big bear chase me!" Lol!! One of the funniest and most memorable lines in the movie.
Epic movie quote.
I the raccoon line "now he's bald on both ends."
That bear hadda BIG OL' BWUTT!! Too bad Jay and Amber didn't show that part nor show the bear bouncing on the door with Chet under it. OMG!! They left out and cut up so many good parts, like they had some inept person editing this one in a rush. This isn't like their other vids. This was awful!!

Such a timeless summer time classic with two legends . Another classic John Candy film you gotta watch is “Summer Rental”probably my very favorite.
"Summer Rental" is my very favorite John Candy film. It's also the only time I've ever seen John Larroquette portraying a good and decent person.
Another John Candy gem you should see is Cool Runnings. Based on a true story.

You'll love "Summer Rental" (1985) with John Candy.
You guys need to watch “Splash” with Tom Hanks, John Candy and Daryl Hannah!
This was my favorite movie when I was a kid. I loved it! So hilarious! Dan Aykroyd is the best… it’s what I do, it’s what I do! I still say that to this day! 😂
This is one of my favorite classics. Can never go wrong with these two actors. 🥰👏👏👏
I'm so glad to see you're watching this. It's easily in my Top 10 comedies of all time. John Candy was the BEST!
Don't forget, John Candy was also in Blues Brothers.
"Summer Rental" is another Candy film similar to this one where he plays the dad on vacation.
Bert the Bear was also in a great wilderness thriller called *The Edge* with Anthony Hopkins & Alec Baldwim
Great movie.
Thank you for watching this! Now, watch another great summer move: My Girl (1991) starring Dan Ackroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Macaulay Culkin.
I would advise Amber to have some tissues ready for a certain scene,though.
John Candy was the epitome of a great actor.
He took every role he was in, comedy or drama, serious.
Man, did he go too soon!
The way he walks in the twins room and says “good evening” always kills me
Another fun movie with John Candy is Summer Rental. There's also Splash with Tom Hanks.
All the movies that started John Candy, Dan Akroyd, Tom Hanks and Chevy Chase together were Winners..!
YES!!!! This is my favorite JC movie!!! I think its because we use to go to our cottage every summer and stuff like in the movie would happen...sooooo good!!!! RIP John Candy❤ Also, the song at the end is called The Land of a Thousand Dances by Wilson Pickett
Great reaction!

This is one of my all time favorite classic movies. Glad y'all watched it!!
One of my favorite movies as a kid back in the 80s.

love to see you two enjoying it :)
This was my dad’s favorite movie. Every time they showed the bear’s butt he would absolutely LOSE it 😂 He passed away 30 years ago almost to the day so this was a treat to watch you watch his favorite in his memory ❤
For a sweet drama about years of friendship, I recommend “DRIVING MISS DAISY” with Dan Ackroyd, Morgan Freeman, and Jessica Tandy.
Guarding Tess is another good one with a similar style

A fish called wanda, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and There's Something about Mary are a Must. A Fish Called Wanda has 2 Monty Python actors in it. It was my fav movie for a long time.
John Cleese slipping into that hillbilly accent was brilliant!
Robert Prosky is one of my favorite supporting actors. Loved him ever since i saw him as Will Darnell in stephen king's Christine!
OMG I can't believe you two are reacting to this, so fun, amazing movie 🥰
The 80s was crazy deep with Legendary comedians
Love this movie, so glad you guys watched this one! We need to get Gross Point Blank on the watchlist. John Cusack and Dan Akroyd in a comedy/action/romance with one of the best soundtracks!
This was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid. Such a fun movie!
Love the great outdoors and summer rental. Watch them every summer. As a Tarantino fan I will say I think Pulp Fiction is the mildest one of his movies. It is also IMO one of his best. His movies aren’t for PC heavy people who offend easy so just remember that as you go into it. Some great performances in that movie if you can overlook the 5 or so scenes that offend easily offended people
Yeah, they asked what movie would ease them into Tarantino, and I thought well, Pulp Fiction is the easiest one to start with. All his movies are ... difficult for sweet, innocent souls like theirs. They will love the music in it, though, and it is an amazing movie despite the violence and rough scenes (trying to not give anything away).
It's so funny when John Candy pulls the bear out of the hole and they come face to face, the bear says "YOU!", like it remembered him. 😆🤣
Who's Harry Crumb. Is another great John Candy movie. A must watch😊
The Great Outdoors AND Funny Farm (with Chevy Chase) are two classics!
One of my favorite Dan Aykroyd movies is "My Stepmother is an Alien". I think you both would enjoy that movie.
John Candy in Summer Rental is my favorite!
Awesome Friday Jay and Amber!!
Since ya love the classics, I gotta recommend "Scavenger Hunt (1979)" and the star-studded "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad World" and "Summer Rental" (John Candy)
Love Scavenger Hunt. Never hear anyone talk about it and haven't seen anyone react to it.
If they do "Scavenger Hunt" I swear I'll be screaming and squawking for them to do "Midnight Madness".
The ending song, Land of a Thousand Dances, is sung by Wilson Pickett (AKA Wicked Wilson Pickett).
Trading places is one of my favourite Dan Ackroyd movies ❤ but really anything he did turned out good
I lived there while they filmed this movie. The restaurant was a real thing, it burned down years later. They built the cabin just for the movie and knocked it down after filming. Bass Lake in Oakhurst California just outside Yosemite.
I agree with the recommendations for Cool Runnings, it’s a fun movie based on real events. And John Candy plays the coach.
As for Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino movies are known for a lot of swearing and violence but he doesn’t linger on anything for too long (as far as I can remember) and there’s comedy sprinkled in to make it more palatable..I’m sure you guys will be fine.
Guys it was Steve Martin with John Candy in 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles'
Goodday, Jay and Amber! Hope you all are having a great weekend!
I HIGHLY recommend y'all watch/react to "Leon: The Professional" (1994). It stars Gary Oldman, Natalie Portman (who played Padme in the Star Wars films), Jean Reno, and Danny Aiello. This is one of the best movies ever made!
I loved Summer Rental as a kid.
The Great Outdoors very funny. Other great movies "Spaceballs" and "Summer Rental" & "Cool Running" with John Candy
The ending dance song is from the great Wilson Pickett, "Land of a 1000 Dances". Also listen to "Midnight Hour" from him.
THANK YOU, if you want another John Candy classic, Summer Rental is a lot of fun.
Just tell her they look great!
Yeah Guys, when I was a kid we went to northern Wisconsin every summer for vacation. When I was little we did the dump thing watching the bears dig through the garbage with a ring of cars around the high side with the headlights on. There was a pinball arcade on main street and go carts and mini bikes on the edge of town. Horse riding stables and places to rent boats and all kind of stuff. Going fishing with the small boat that came with the cabin. We usually used worms for bait but sometimes we would get leeches or minnows. There was and probably still is a place called Paul Bunyans that the restaurant in the movie is imitating. That was in the 60's and 70's. Everything has changed. You can't get into the dump unless you can prove you're a local resident, the arcade is gone, and the town has traffic lights and a mall. There was a stop sign at each end of town when I was a kid. And yes when I reached high school age I had a Cammy only she was staying at the same resort, not a local girl. Plus it was a three room cabin with a wood stove for heat not a two story lodge.
Summer Rental is also a good one!
and a few years after this, we get Camp Candy, one of my favorite cartoons as a kid. Will forever miss that hearty laugh.
The next time you want to do a John Candy movie, please consider "Summer Rental" It is one of my favorites of his. I loved this reaction, thank you.
This movie brings back nice memories. My older half-sister use to stay with us a few weeks every summer when we were young. She would take me to the movies all the time when she visited, this is one of the movies we watched.
They stopped using hood ornaments because people stole them and made necklaces out of them. Bling bling
Put Nothing But Trouble on your list. Dan Akroyd...John Candy...Chevy Chase. Totally insane comedy.
I had a cat named Lil Bobo.
Yes... a certain legendary rapper that J loves makes an appearance.
"It touched me"!!!!
"It's been touching you for 20 years..."
Why would anyone skip this movie? It's hilarious lol, my mom loved it and always died laughing when the bear butt had its fur blown off lmfao :D
Now that you've mentioned how much you love birds, allow me to suggest you react to the Alfred Hitchcock classic "The Birds" (1963). It should be right up your alley. A must see for all bird lovers.
You should watch Dan Aykroyd in Driving Miss Daisy. Completely flips the script. It's a GREAT movie with Morgan Freeman.
And I'm not sure, but have you seen vacation? It just reminded me when you said the luggage falling off the roof.
Also, John Candy in Splash. Not sure if you've seen that one yet.
Ah what a classic. You missed the end credit scene with the raccoons! Did you hear about Rosie? She's bald at both ends now! 😂
Please watch Stripes. Candy has a much smaller role but still hilarious. Stars Bill Murray and Harold Ramis.
When I was a kid in Michigan we would vacation in the Upper Peninsula. There was no tv, radio, and obviously no cellphones.
Every night at sunset we would drive to the dump, turn on the headlights and watch the bears. That was our #1 form of entertainment.
John Candy and Dan Aykroyd at their finest. Absolutely brilliant.
If you like this, you will enjoy films by Savage Steve Holland, mainly One Crazy Summer and Better Off Dead. Another John Candy "vacation" movie you would like is Summer Rental.
Yes, yes, and yes!
Been a sub here for only about a month and have watched about 20 or so of their reaction vids. Something is a miss here with this one. I'm only 14min in and it seems like they cut out the funniest scenes, that they were reacting to and left partial nothing-scenes. They haven't done that before. I don't know anything about YT vid-editing but did they accidentally dump their good clips or something and may have rushed to get this one out?? It just seems all out of whack and out of context. My wife had to ask me what was funny about the two brothers in the bunkbeds and she asked me what Amber meant by "Suck My Wake", cause they didn't show it and she didn't understand about the old deadguy cause it wasn't shown and Chet eating the Ol' 96'r wasn't shown either. Just curious if there was a problem editing it.
They even cut out when Roman said, "Chet ate the Nag" and "It's been touchin' ya for 20 years". 🤣I'm not hacking on Jay and Amber in any way, but it just seems odd like their cousin sloppily edited it.
@@MAGGOT_VOMIT You're not wrong. I noticed the same things, and it occurred to me very early on that they were reacting to something they hadn't even seen yet, like the hood ornament on Roman's car. And then they were one or two clips behind for the rest of the film. And like you said, most of the clips weren't even of anything relevant.
Summer Rental is another John Candy classic I would recommend. Chevy Chase Funny Farm is another great one.
*SUMMER RENTAL (1985)* is a better John Candy movie
A John Candy classic, love this movie so much (I watch it every summer). Other Candy classics you have to watch include "Who's Harry Crumb?" "Summer Rental", and "Canadian Bacon"
Thanks for this! You might want to recheck the editing -timing was off on this one, and a lot of the scenes the lines to the jokes were cut off. (Unlike all of your other reactions).
Take care, guys!
Yes it wasn't synched properly.
The guy who cooked the "Old 96er" is played by late actor John Bloom, who stood 7'4".
