Kathy Bates earned that Oscar. RIP James Caan
Damn. I didn't know he passed away. RIP
@@Shawaeon he passed away three months ago
Who is James Caan?
@@azazello1784 he’s was an actor
@@azazello1784 He was Paul Sheldon.
RIP James Caan (March 26, 1940 - July 6, 2022), aged 82
You will always be remembered as a legend.
r.i.p to James always liked his work 🥰
Fact's
In the book, Annie was even worse. When she hobbled him in the book, she cut off his foot with an axe and then cauterized the wound with a blowtorch. The 'E' key broke on the typewriter and when Paul complained she took off his thumb with an electric carving knife. And the scene where she killed the law enforcement officer, she came up behind him and stabbed with a cross she had put on her cows' grave. As he was crawling back to his car to get help, she ran over his head with a riding lawnmower. They obviously had to tone her down a bit for the movie.
I also heard the Jurassic Park novel was extremely graphic so they had to tone it down as well making the movie
@@Gurra88 That they did. The violence in Crichton's novels was much more graphic & gory than even the most violent scenes in any of the Jurassic Park/World films. Dennis Nedry's death in the novel is particularly haunting since he did not actually die before the Dilophosaurus tried eating him.
Again, and it is not a cliche..... books are always better than the films. The true talent in a writer comes out and grabs you because they have more time to do it. That's why Game of Thrones done as a LONG Series was Great and Amazing..... until they ran out of book material.
@@danielhaas9612 For the most part I agree, though there are some exceptions (IMO). Who Framed Roger Rabbit is based on the book "Who Censored Roger Rabbit" and the movie is far superior. Another example I can think of is "Logan's Run". Maybe it's because I saw the movie before I read the book, but I was actually disappointed in the book after seeing the movie (they are quite different from each other as well). I would even say that Forrest Gump the movie was better than the book, though they are also quite different from each other. In the book sequel, Forrest says that Hollywood made a movie about his life and got "most of the details right but missed some spots". True.
@@danielhaas9612 LOL, I expect because the book was popular first most people like that better.
Had it been an unknown book everyone would say the film was better.
This film would have it's own horde of fans who would probably hate the extreme violence in the book.
In retrospect, the hobbling doesn't make sense as he was getting around without his legs anyway, apart from her being vindictive. 😁
R.I.P. James Caan
Damn, I didn't know. July 6. He was great.the show Las Vegas he played a Boss
One of my favorite Actors. He was in some great rolls and movies.
He will be missed.
He was excellent as Santino "Sonny" Corleone, in The Godfather (1972). The first James Caan movie I ever watched was Rollerball (1975). I didn't watch the earlier 1972 movie "The Godfather" until years later.
А когда в каком году он умер?
@@ivanbutenko8778 6th July 2022
Those puppies are living a great life, laying on laps, getting petted, except when the girls scream, I am sure the puppies are like, “Seriously? I’m trying to nap!”
IF thats a "dogs life" they've got it good .
48:10 I was afraid the dog was going to get elbowed or crushed.
One of Stephen King's inspirations for Misery was the reaction his fans had to his 1984 novel The Eyes of the Dragon. Many hardcore fans rejected The Eyes of the Dragon because it was an epic fantasy book, with virtually none of the horror that initially made his reputation. They were displeased that he veered off from his M. O.
Paul Sheldon feeling chained to the Misery books by his fans was a metaphor for King's feeling chained to horror fiction.
That's very interesting! I actually loved The Eyes of the Dragon. There have been rumors for some time that they are going to adapt that into a movie but I'll believe it when I see it. I hope they can get Frank Darabont to direct it because he has had amazing luck with Stephen King adaptations (The Green Mile, Shawshank Redemption, The Mist). Rob Reiner too, as he's done several with success (Misery and Stand By Me being the most notable).
Another big source of inspiration was Kings battle with drug addiction. Something that left him helpless and reliant on a terrible, all consuming, murdering monster.
It's also a metaphor for his cocaine addiction at the time.
@@MrHartApart He was high as balls directing "Maximum Overdrive" I don't care what anyone says i love the movie. Imagine a remake with the tech we have now days. if done right it could be a blast.
I love every Stephen King book and The Eyes of the Dragon is one of my favorites.
Kathy Bates also played the Unsinkable Molly Brown in the film Titanic. She was the one that gave her son's dress clothes to Jack.
THAT'S WHERE MICH SAW HER BEFORE!
She was also on that “coming of age” film called Angus… very sad movie, It shows how cruel people and kids are.
Damn I was a kid when titanic came out amazing movie draw me like 1 of your French girls 😋
She was also in Dolores Claiborne, and had a small part in the tv series of The Stand. Both shows I highly recommend if you're a Steve King fan.
@@darrenjones1413 so was I, I’ll never forget how big it was when it came out. Everybody at school (especially the girls) were talking about it
"His falling was not that bad."
He tumbled down the side of a hill, in a cage of steel and glass. Trust me, it was that bad. :)
Especially in a 60's car, no airbags or even soft interiors. Probably just a lap seat belt that you adjust by hand - assuming he was wearing it.
The hobbling scene is still one of the most disturbing things on film.
It's pure genius how the entire film is made and then that scene can freak people out more then more gruesome things seen in other movies
Didn't she chop his feet off in the book? It's been so long I forgot
@@ctwishkeyprn2039 Aye, she did. But If memory serves, even King himself liked this better since it was more disturbing.
@@ctwishkeyprn2039 not only that, but used a blowtorch to cauterize the wound. Later, she cuts off his thumb and sticks it on a cake, saying that if he's good, he doesn't have to eat the "special candle".
@@mikeman2862 didn't mean to come off rude, I just knew the book/movie scene was different sorry about that big guy
@@YolandaAnneBrown95726 yes I remember the book was more detailed with the scenes, but again Growing up i was forbidden to "read those type" of books lol
“You sick twisted %#@$.” One of the greatest movie explitives of all time.
Agreed. It is just SO satisfying to me that Paul gets to take out his anger like that.
I also liked her reaction at 16:50 "fat whore"
The actress for Misery played by Kathy Bates stars in another Stephen King movie called Dolores Claiborne. It’s another fantastic role for her and the story is really good.🙂
I’m impressed Lea knew it’s a classic Mustang (‘65)! And Michelle knowing the old Cherokee😍 good eyes!
39:25 the Dog lol
"Stop screaming, I'm trying to sleep" 🐶
Kathy Bates rightfully gets a lot of attention for this film and James Cann did a masterful job too
💯
The book she bought from the store was the one he killed Misery. The one he burned was the book he had just written at the hotel before the accident. It was about the slum kids and Annie went off about the swearing. During the flashback scene with his agent he talked about how he wanted to get away from writing Misery and had killed her so he could do that.
That sounds like a bit of a better lead in IMHO.
Hi
You Don't need to use in before imho
I saw Kathy Bates a couple of months ago on a movie set. She is a very small gray haired lady now, but still has that lively look in her eyes. Great actress.
The "hobbling" scene is one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen on film. We all expect the camera to turn away at the last second like they always do, but it doesn't and that makes it SO much more powerful. (In the book she cuts one of his feet off at the ankle).
If you love Kathy Bates, as you should, check out Delores Claiborne too.
The filmmakers did an amazing job. These days, movies would just do quick cuts to props when they want to show gruesome injuries like that and it looks cheap and lazy. Here, the cuts are long enough and goes to what you want (or don't want) to see without losing any momentum. The cuts before set up all the camera angles and it is clear what is the focus for each camera. When the hammer swings down, the energy flowed from cut to cut like a single take with multiple cameras.
@@Zanoab Gets me every time, even now. First time I saw it we were all shocked. My mom ran to the bathroom right away...
I was in college when the movie came out. When my group of friends & I went to see it, I had recently fractured my ankle and was on crutches and in a large removable boot cast (along with some good pain meds). My lower leg was all kinds of black, blue, green, yellow, and red like they made Sheldon’s legs. When she hobbled him, my ankle just throbbed with pain and I literally cringed in sympathetic agony!
The book was horror, but this is closer to suspense.
Seeing the injury wouldn't make it better and could affect the rating of the film.
The other thing is, what's a broken ankle look like? - in reality it is not very dramatic, not like a severe break of the arm where the bone sticks out.
Very disturbing indeed.
Bates more than deserved an Oscar for this. RIP James Caan. Hi doggos! Stay classy Lia 🥰
What's disturbing to this day is that Richard Farnsworth died by self-inflicted gunshot wound, while his character died by gunshot. R.I.P. to him and James Caan. ❤🌹🕯🙏🏽
It sounds like he was a happy guy most of his life. Just made a decision because he was in a lot of pain with no hope of recovery. Supposedly, he wouldn't have been physically able to shoot himself if he waited any longer.
@@jonalberts980 Well if you are going to do yourself in, a gun is probably a more surefire method than poisoning yourself.
20:29 with this reaction to the paper thrown on paul's leg the upcoming hobbling scene should be epic
Kathy Bates won an Oscar for her role. You should watch her acceptance speech.
Another claustrophobic thriller where the protagonist is confined inside a building is WAIT UNTIL DARK. With the lovely Audrey Hepburn. Through a series of events in the prologue, a doll ends up in a blind woman’s basement apartment. It is stuffed with heroin and three crooks want it. What starts as a hustle gradually evolved into a nail biting battle of wits. And there is a jump scare in the climax; makes your heart leap out of your chest like Misery.
A car crash like that where the car flips over definitely would cause leg fractures like that. Especially then, modern cars are built to break apart in a way that keeps the driver much safer than back then.
Also, the manuscript that was burned was not the book Misery died in, that was just released in stores. The book that was burned was an entirely new book that was a new story and features the profanity that so offended Annie.
Best Ellie, Michelle, Viki and Lia reaction yet. 48:16 is the sort of response every writer or filmmaker dreams about.
You wonderful ladies might not watch a scarier movie in October.
VIKI: I wonder if we have such crazy fans.
FUN FACT: In the book she's still alive after the scuffle. She drags herself towards the shed outside her house and dies frozen with her hand reaching for a chainsaw.
The movies for _The Shining_ and _Misery_ really did switch things up.
Dolores Claiborne is Kathy Bates' best film.
It's a film that flies under the radar & is not so well known, but it is truly fantastic & the entire cast is great in it. No weak spots.
Highly recommend for the channel.
Another Stephen King adaptation, and a fantastic movie.
Haha the dog during the hobbling scene was like " can y"all keep it down "
James Caan was the son of German Immigrants, he got the black Belt in Karate, he played Football for the University of Michigan, he also was a Rodeo-Rider and his Nickname was "The Jewish Cowboy"!
Thanks Mr. Caan for all your great Movies! R.I.P.🙏🏻
Kathy Bates was amazing in this movie.
Made her career, actually.
She has done some great work since, but this will be one that she is remembered for, forever.
Much to her chagrin.
You can never go wrong when a movie is based on a Stephen King book.
I knew at the hobbling scene I'm like, well Adam watch 4 Bulgarian women go into complete panic mode. You girls didn't disappoint
Even the dog didn’t want to watch his feet break 🥺
5:38 Viki scarring Lia in an unexpected way
RIP James Caan.
Kathy Bates took home the Oscar for Best Actress in this movie.
She beat out Julia Roberts for Pretty Woman when she won it… can you believe that?
7:34--I Love how all of ya got so wide-eyed as Kathy Bates starts to really show her crazy 37:46=Great group scream!! (LOL)...Problem was, she was actually a seriuos actress and this movie typecast her for more psycho roles. It took her almost 10 years to get rid of the image and get work that showed her talent for dramatic work. Awesome pick ladies...I'm thinkin of adding "Misery to my DVD collection now!
I'm always to join the awesome ladies in reactions to movies I really enjoy because makes me feel like I'm re-watching with the original excitement :)
Hyped for this reaction!
Btw, I saw that in your channel you reacted to Kung Fu Panda! There are any chance that you will also react to Kung Fu Panda 2? You will not be disappointed trust me!
Ah yes one of my favorite Stephen King adaptations. Right up there next with Christine, which I recommend as well
Kathy Bates has appeared in most of the seasons of American horror story as well as a lot of movies like fried green tomatoes and titanic.
If you've seen Titanic, she was also in that as the "Unsinkable Molly Brown".
lol
I enjoy all 4 ladies together and seeing the reactions 😁
Remember his legs didn't just break in a 'fall'. It was a car crash, so your legs get broken by being banged around inside the car as it rolls over and crashes.
yea the ladies dont know much about what can happen in a fiery car crash, BUT they did point out a great mistake in the film. WT F didnt the Chief take a deputy at least to the house, but i guess thats the way the crappy nasty vile book was written
I personally believe she did that to his legs,while he was unconscious. It's why the camera pan on them was so long.
@@Kygira Agreed. I've been in a couple car accidents, one of which I injured my knees. If his legs looked like that, most likely so would the rest of him.
You 2 can't be serious. If a person were to break someone's legs you would see different type of trauma to it
@@bms2010 Depends on how you break them. She was a nurse after all,it's possible,and She was crazy enough to do it. They looked like someone purposely beat them with a blunt object.
This is the best reaction on this channel I've seen! Kathy Bates scared the shit out of me as a kid when I used to watch it with my parents
I was wondering how you ladies would react to the SCENE and you didn't disappointed. Well done. 👏👏👏👏
@Alexander the Grape speedy recovery for you man.
That's true, growing up in the 90s i would saying it was the best period of movies, absolutely
This is such an excellent movie, I'm so excited for this reaction and I'm glad all four of you are watching it together. Please, I beg of you, watch/react to Rosemary's Baby (original 1968 version). It's my favorite classic creepy film, and I'd love to see your reaction of it. xoxo love always❣
Absolute classic movie 💯 Kathy Bates was phenomenal in this film with James Cann. R.I.P to a wonderful actor
Good one. Proves a movie doesn't need to be gory to be scary. Good script, good acting, good direction, a rare spooky gem
Rob Reiner was definitely on a roll around this time: This is Spinal Tap, Misery, The Princess Bride, Stand By Me, A Few Good Men, When Harry Met Sally.
Facts
@@JustWasted3HoursHereso true
That was fun y'all! Stopped by to check it out and ended up watching the entire reaction.
It was impressive that you noticed the penguin during the dinner/toast scene, but it was already facing the right way again, so Annie already knew that Paul had gotten out, and most likely knocked the glass over on purpose. Unless it was a mistake by the filmmakers, which I doubt.
4:44 Its a 1966 Mustang he crashed, one of the more dangerous cars to have an accident in. No crumple zone, a lap belt, no headrest, a dangerous steering wheel, a barely protected gas tank, a single hydraulic line for ALL the DRUM brakes, etc. He's lucky he didn't die.
Richard Farnsworth was amazing in this movie! Also check him out in the Canadian produced movie the grey fox... one the best cinematography movies ever made.
she's from American Horry story... and she in sooo many horror movies. this movies... had so much references . but it's my first time watching the original, and omg!
Great reaction! You might remember Kathy Bates as the mother on The Waterboy.
If you’re looking to change things up and react to a movie no other reactors are watching, then I would recommend the movie Tag (2018?). It’s hilarious, and you’ll enjoy it.
"I hope we don't have fans like that." "Or do we?" Nah, I've broken bones before, and I wouldn't wish that on anyone. You're good from this end lol.
Lia is looking jacked! In a healthy way. Misery was a big hit, as it didn't stray too far into horror territory and there was a current of dark humour running through it. So even people who didn't like scary movies could handle it.
I really remember this movie a lot. The very first time I started watching this movie was when it was on TV one time. And I was watching this movie with my Mom and Dad.
If i ever see Kathy Bates on the street, I'm prolly gonna run in terror! Scariest movie scene I can remember from my childhood.
Stephen King at his best, writing a book about an author and his fans. So many great movies are based on his books. Carrie, The Shining, The Dead Zone, Firestarter, Cujo, Needful Things, Delores Clayborne (also staring Kathy Bates), Insomnia, The Green Mile, and Stand By Me are some of my favorites.
This movie was first released 32 years ago in theaters. And I was only 13 years old at the time when this movie was first released in theaters. And I really love all of your reactions to all of the movies. Because you guys are a lot of fun to watch movies with and you guys a so funny and so beautiful too.
I love watching you girls react. You NEED to watch FATAL ATTRACTION or HAND THAT ROCKS THE CRADLE
Kathy Bates gives an Oscar winning performance ,but James Caan and the other members of the cast give excellent support ,a really good thriller.
My 10 year old was Annie Wilkes for Halloween. It's her favorite horror movie. We bought a broken cane at a thrift store and a pool noodle. I cut off a piece of pool noodle and painted it black and then we jabbed the cane into it to look like the hammer. I then bought her an outfit similar to the one she's wearing in the hobbling scene. 😊
This is my mother's favorite horror movie.
Okay
tasteful horror man!
Your mother rules 🤘
Kathy Bates is an absolute legend, u ladies should definitely watch Dolores Claiborne.. Another great role by her
Muy buena reacción, Kathy bates excelente actriz y James caan excelente actor que en paz descanse, una de mis películas favoritas, ninguna secuela jamás la podrá igualar, son únicos e irrepetibles🙂🖐️
Recuerdo que en los años 90’s alguien me tomo la mano viendo esta película tal como lo veo ahora, x eso recuerdo con tanto cariño esta pelicula....., pero Kathy Bates esta tan loca 😱🥶.
El oscar mas que merecido 👏👏👏
I'm watching four hot chicks watch this.
"Misery loves company"
Hearing Moonlight Sonata was never the same after watching this movie.
I just want to let you ladies know that I love your videos and that I'm your number one fan.
I am writing this to help out these ladies and this video and this channel with the algorithm ✌️❤️😚☺️
This is an amazing movie, for me this is James Caan's best performance RIP, and Kathy Bates was outstanding. Loved your reactions, you were all fully engaged in the movie because it's so good
Fun fact: ALOT of other actors were considered for that role before James Caan was cast… none of those actors wanted to spend hours laying on a bed, I don’t blame them
You brought up a point I never thought of - that she likely messed up his legs to begin with.
During her academy awards acceptance speech Kathy Bates apologized for the ankles.
Thanks, Ellie! Thanks, Lia! Thanks, Viki! Thanks, Michelle! 🪵 #TheHomies #RobReiner #Misery #Misery1990
Kathy Bates won an Oscar for Best Actress for this movie. The book Misery by Stephen King is even better than the movie and the movie is incredible.
Great reaction Homies, I'm your number one fan!
"It's called hobbling ...." LMAO
One thing bothers me, though. How was Kathy Bates able to drag James Cann out of the car and lift him up and carry him into the house? What did she do, take some kind of superpower pills?
Great performances by everyone in this movie
Kathy Bates, who plays Annie also played Deloris Claiborne in the movie of the same name; Frances Sternhagen, who plays the Sherriff's wife read the Book on Tape version of Deloris Claiborne.
I just want to say i'm your #1 fan Homies LOLOLOLL!!!
26:03 "...because of my temper."
Lia "duh!"
Wouldnt think the dame director of, This is Spinal Tap, and Princess Bride! James Caan also in Thief, godfather, and many others. His Boss is old school Hollywood royalty Lauren Bacall! Even did a movie with Humphrey Bogart!
An action movie with James Caan and Mandy Patinkin "The Princess Bride Inigo Montoya". Alien Nation movie 1988. A cool spin on the buddy cop movie.
Incredible Movie! Kathy Bates & James Caan (R.I.P.) are legends! That hobbling scene tho', whew, nasty, . . .
My mom made me watch this movie when I was 12 and I loved it so much jaja
Great reaction, ladies. First time I've seen Michelle get really creeped out! Nice.
Hope all is well ladies and what a cute dog in the video 🙂❤️
The actress that playes the older lady who was the agent she is actress Lauren Bacall she was gorgeous when she was younger
That would be me driving in the snow.
Great reaction for the month of October another great one is Interview with a Vampire another '90s movie❤
I love the funny game they play. I swear they try and make each other mention the spicy stuff and whoever does is the loser. 😆
Great movie. RIP James Caan. You ladies would love 28 Days Later as a Halloween special
Great watch!! Now you must see The Hand that Rocks the Cradle 😱👍🏻👍🏻
When you girls were saying number one fan it reminded me of someone in Texas around 1995 who was shot by their number one fan. I'm talking about the singer Selena, Selena Quintanilla Perez shot by Yolanda Saldivar.
Rip To A Great Actor James Caan
A few thrillers from the 90s I'm sure you'll all enjoy are Kurt Russel films:
Unlawful Entry (1992)
Executive Decision (1996)
Breakdown (1997)
Hi girls ! Just want to say, i am you're number 1 fan 🔨😉😂🤣
Love your reactions , keep up the fun !
Love from down under ( Australia )
I'm here to see the "Broken legs part" 😍😍😍
