![The Wall Song ร้องข้ามกำแพง | EP.202 | ตั้ม วราวุธ / เบสท์ คำสิงห์ | 18 ก.ค. 67 [1/5]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/cwIoA7XHqnE/mqdefault.jpg)
When Carol says he can't come out until he resembles the man she married, and they reply that they don't have that kind time, I lose it every time. So many hilarious lines in this movie
I love the scene at 19:12 when the blonde wife says it would be nice to have a doctor in the neighborhood and the cuckoo clock in the background starts chiming as her husband and the old guy look at her like she's... well, you know. Hahaha
this movie is FILLED to the brim with hilarious quotes
@@LA_HA HA! No way i never caught that for some reason, makes it that much funnier
"HEY! PINOCCHIO! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?"
I quote that line all the time
The way Tom Hanks “shuffles” down the porch steps after the house explodes will never not be funny to me. Brilliant physical comedy.
That’s what I was gonna say. How does he do that?
I like when's he's waving his finger at Art and his other busted finger is wiggling with while in a splint 😂
I agree that the movie gets better the more you watch it. It's all in the subtleties. When the camera smashes in and out, Tom Hanks keeps screaming after the camera move stops, then looks around in confusion. After the house explodes, he comes out the door and then slides down the front steps on his heels... So many little moments and little details that make it great.
Absolutely!!
This is one of my absolute favorite movies. There's nothing about this silly, silly film that doesn't tickle me every time I see it. You can tell everybody was having an absolute ball.
Fun fact: the same poodle is also in Silence Of The Lambs
This is one of those films where when you've seen it 200 times it becomes unbelievably hilarious. Practically every line. But every person I've shown it to for the first time is like... :I But Ray slithering down the stairs when he's all blown up remains the funniest piece of physical comedy in the history of cinema.
I'll have to trust you on this one.
I'm right there with you on the stair slither. I've seen only two or three reactions to this movie and no one ever shows or mentions it. That is excellent comedy.
This movie is brilliant in subtle ways. Even when Art eats the dog food.
And there's heaps of cool jokes in the sound design. The theme music for Queenie sounds like barking dogs. In the Klopecs house with the cuckcoo clock. Or when Bonnie touches Hans you hear blow flies lol!
Sorry but the fall off the roof by Bruce Dern is the funniest part of the movie
@@themetalpig7613 You are 100% right. I noticed them too and I love that other people also recognized them. I never hear anyone mention the dog food Art eats. I do have to admit it was a while till I found that one. I always seem to find more every rewatch.
I live in the NY suburbs. I used to work for the phone company, got a job and the customer's last name was Klopeck , I returned the job I wasn't taking any chances.
Rest in Peace Rick Ducommun. He was such an underrated comedian!
This is a dark comedy gem. I grew up watching it. Favorite character is Rumsfield. Bruce Dern is hilarious.
your a 9 on the tension scale lol
Soldier's way, saves the day
Says who?!
My taxes pay your salary!
It's very high.
There goes the god damn brownies!
That kid next doors a meatball.
I could go on. Hahaha
Haha. “It’s very high” is my favorite line from the movie.
@@bonesjackson81Hey Ricky, get this lamo outa your yard!
This was a family favorite in my house growing up and an inside joke for us into adulthood. Can’t count how many times I’ve answered the phone to hear my brother yell “Yoooooo Rumsfield” into the receiver as our favorite scene is when he falls off the roof.
I grew up with this movie, and watched it endlessly as it was one of my dad's personal favourites. "It's the pizza dude" is a line we often still quote. I feel like Joe Dante is a some what subversive film maker in that he doesn't give you exactly what you expect. This movie has such a unique tone, and feels almost like a weird dream. I love it, thanks for reacting to this one.
You guys made me happy! The 'burbs is a real cult classic, with memorable characters and dialogues!
came with the frame
oh my gawd, this is my favorite Tom Hanks movie. Never expected to see anyone do a reaction!!!!
Same
Always been one of my favorite movie lines ever, one that I do myself in real life. When Bruce Dern picks up the portrait, smiling, and says "That's a pretty girl..."
Then turns and deadpans "Where is she now?"
IMO, This is the most understated performance by Brother Theodore.
He usually goes over the top, but not in this one.
Oh... and he was also the voice of Gollum in the animated Hobbit.
Fun fact: the hot blonde wife is played by Wendy Schaal, who is best known as Francine Smith from American Dad.
One of my favorite character intros of all time is when Ricky starts playing that song (I think "war machine") and the camera pushes in on Bruce Dern's house, he exits, and puts on his shades.
The Burbs is one of my favorite movies, but I've never really wanted reactors to watch it, because I was just too afraid they wouldn't "get it." It isn't the kind of movie that bowls you over the first time you see it. (Most reactors only watch a movie once.) It's more like an old friend that you grow to love the more familiar you get with it. To me, The Burbs represents "childhood summers." It has such a silly premise, but Joe Dante makes every little line and insubstantial plot development seem like the most important thing in the world.
my friend had solar panels being installed on his roof years ago and I showed up and noticed what work was being done, I yelled "hey yo Rumsfield!!!!" the installer starting laughing. I'll never forget that
Awesome. haha
God, I love this movie so much. So many memorable scenes and lines. I quote Bruce Dern Burbs lines so much!
“It came with the frame?”
“We got a real problem.”
“There go the ***damn brownies.”
He’s so great in this haha 😂
The one I've said is " A soldiers way, saves the day"
Clopek, what is that slavic....NO!!!!! Bout a 9 on the tension scale there Rube.
When I worked in a video store in the late 80s we played this ALL the time and kept quoting it. (“Came with the frame”, “satan is good. satan is our pal”and “it’s really high” being some of my favorites.) It does get funnier with each rewatch.
I still do the chanting scene at my job all the time it never gets old 😂
I love this movie and this review. My favorite part of the movie is when they are visiting the Klopeks and Tom Hanks is just sitting in the chair uncomfortably while Theodore (Rubin) is standing next to him staring at him.
Love this dark comedy horror film!
It's a cross between Texas Chainsaw Massacre meets Rear Window meets Abbott and Costello.
Hahaha
It was filmed during a writers strike so there could be no rewrites from the original script. That said, anything that wasn't in the script is improvised. My favourite part is Corey Feldman breaking the plateful of cookies in the kitchen with the door you can find them on youtube trying to get that scene right a hundred times and Feldman is piiiissed.
Him saying he called "the pizza dude" just makes me think of Ninja Turtles '90.
I went to see this movie in the theaters with my Mom as a kid. It still holds up. Still funny.
LOVE this movie!! I've watched it so many times, I can practically recite it.🖤
Also, the Jerry Goldsmith score is awesome (the introduction theme is hilarious).
EVERY line out of Dern's mouth is exquisitely delivered.
My brother would watch it CONSTANTLY! It was one of his favorite movies
It's surprising that more people don't react to this film!
Every neighbourhood has a Klopek family, but it's when yours is the only one in town who isn't like them, that you should worry. LOL
My buddy and I went to see this opening night up at Universal City Walk and Rick Ducummon & Tom Hanks were there...they kept their presence unknown until after the film. The entire theater was roaring with laughter, especially with Rick"s character. The "I took a jolt but I'm OK" quote just floored us.
Too funny watching your wife get grossest by Rick's eating and chewing...he joins a long line of hilarious character actors known for their disgusting on screen eating! 🤣 🤣🤣
One of the most underrated comedies of all time! And who doesn’t love 80s Corey Feldman?
Who doesn't love 80's Corey Feldman? how about All the Hollywood execs, I mean, he was too old for them by that point 😱
@Brad1980 Imagine Elmer Fudd raping Porky Pig.
@Brad1980 no but joking about it is, helps me get over mine, go be offended elsewhere
@Brad1980 come on you have to admit op walk himself into that one
The contrast of the heroic music like he's about to have a showdown in a western, while the smoke pours off him as he shuffles out of the house in a daze is hilarious.
This movie ages like a fine wine. Gets better with each and every watch! Tom Hanks was in his supreme comedic element here. Check out "Money Pit", "Bachelor Party", and "Turner and Hooch" for a few more great comedies of his!
Thank you for watching this. Tom Hanks movies that usually get reacted to are mostly starting with the 90's movies. Everyone neglects the 80's gems. It would be amazing to see reactions to Bachelor Party, The Money Pit, Volunteers, The Man with One Red Shoe, Joe vs. the Volcano, Punchline, Splash, Dragnet and Turner & Hooch. Keep the 80's alive.
Thank you so much for watching this wonderful movie. Hope you all really liked it. This movie holds a special place in my heart because it's my mom's favorite movie. Happy Monday. Hope everyone has a good day.
The dog who played Queeny also played Precious in The Silence of the Lambs. ☺️
Love this movie. Such a classic.
"I figured a man's furnace is his own business."
The most ridiculously funny line in history.
A criminally underrated film. I always felt that Richard Ducommun's role seemed to be tailor made for Dan Aykroyd, with his interest in the supernatural, the occult, and even in the mannerisms of the way the character was depicted. Given that Hanks and Aykroyd starred in Dragnet the year before, it wouldn't surprise me if the role was originally crafted with him in mind. No disrespect to the late Richard Ducommun, but I wish Aykroyd would have been offered, and taken, the role. He would have been much, much better. Check out Aykroyd in Sneakers to get a sense of what he could have been like in The Burbs.
Because it was very Ghostbusters like movie
@@flaysol7719 check out Sneakers (1992). It's a heist/crime caper/comedy/thriller, with an absolutely amazing cast. Aykroyd plays a computer/technical expert who's really into conspiracy theories, cover-ups, plots, etc., like Area 51 and the moon landings being faked. I imagine if Aykroyd was in The Burbs, he'd play the character of Art a lot like his character in Sneakers.
I agree, Dan Aykroyd would have been fantastic in that role.
This was one of my favorite Tom Hanks movies. This and Bachelor Party, and Volunteers are all underrated classics. The guy playing Art was/is a good stand-up comedian. His name is Rick Duccomun. He died in 2015.Great movie to react to. :)
R.I.P.
Oh, hello third favorite film of all time (and favorite film score ever)!
Always remember, "It's not against the law to break cookies."
Not enough scores have Casio keyboard sounding dog barks. It works here.
I love the 'burbs! Rick Ducommun is SO underappreciated.
The late great.😢
Too True!
One of my favorite movies ever. Watched it a lot as a kid. Then one day my family and I went to Universal Studios in California and we took the tram tour. We missed out on the courtyard from Back to the Future due to them filming part 2 at the time. We did the see those future cars though. then we entered the neighborhood set the Burbs was filmed on. Tons of classic tv shows were filmed there. The place along with the Klopeks house was also used in the movie To Kill a Mockingbird. It was the Radley's house and was said to be haunted. It was cool being in High School and we watched the movie TKAM and the same house appeared in that classic film. I sat there and said "I was there". Normally the tram would enter from the side close to the Munsters home, which you can see in The Burbs at times. But due to movies and shows being filmed the rerouted the path. Instead we entered from a hidden road that is located to the left of Walter's house. If you look carefully at the movie the entrance has been covered up.
The movies Hanks is watching are Race with the Devil, The Exorcist and Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2.
Ahh the nostalgia!! This is one of my favorite underrated Tom Hanks movies along with Splash and The Money Pit! 👀
Yes! This was a staple of my movie-renting days when I was a boy.
12:09 To this day I still will occasionally sing the "Satan is our pal" song. My Mrs sings along most of the time...
The first movie he was watching at 12:30 was "Race With The Devil" which I recommend for your watch list. Pretty freaky, right up there with Rosmary's Baby and Amityville Horror.
Thanks, I was thinking that it was Lair of the White Worm.
Race with the Devil is really great.
The second movie was Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2 (1986)
I also HIGHLY recommend it. An underrated cult classic. What was the deal about movies from the 70s and satan?
@@williammatthews693 LOL the 70s were a pretty beak time when it came to movies. Lots of anti-heroes, disaster movies, and yes satanic movies (Rosemary's Baby, Amityville Horror, The Exorcist, ect.) and monster movies like Jaws.
Things didn't start getting more hopeful until Star Wars in 1977.
Yes race with the devil is an excellent movie.
Mr rumsfield was my favorite character and when he fell from the roof cracked me up
One of the rare ones that never get old. Always notice something new or to laugh at. Rewound the VHS countless times to see him fall off the roof as a kid
I love this movie! Joe Dante is a great director. Check out Innerspace from him. Underrated flick.
"You know it's funny but I don't ever remember seeing a removal van out front, Reub"
"Well I don't understand that, it was parked outside ALL DAY!"
Finally someone reacts to this movie! Lol. Great film.
The other great comedy with Tom Hanks is "The Money Pit". Have you seen it? If not, then I hope you'll react to it someday.
As for the funniest scene, that one at 24:55 is probably the greatest.
And the man with one red shoe is his spy film.
YO RUMSFIELD!!!!
"thermostat on a home furnace...is that supposed to go to 5000 degrees?"
For some reason, Bruce Dern saying "You keep a horse in the basement?" after letting out the Kopecks dog, cracks me up every time.
This is a great movie always fun to watch.
About the orange juice Tropicana makes a low acid one now, I've tried it it's good. I've always brush my teeth after I eat not before. I find it weird people want to eat after brushing their teeth with mint flavored tooth paste.
Ditto. I eat long before I eat because everything would have a mint taste afterwards. Especially orange juice. Blech. Also, I can't recall the brand, but they make orange juice with tangerine juice. It Really mellows out the tang of the orange juice. But, when I typically mix my orange juice with apple or some other mild juice
Throwing the coffee at the paperboy really struck me as really funny when I saw this the second time. I was a few years younger the first time I saw it back when it came out. Somewhere in my mid teens. As you get older you can appreciate that re-action. Also when he loads himself into the ambulance.... is classic. It was an improvisation by Hanks.
This movie is EPIC!!! So many over the top funny moments. It reminds me of neighborhoods I've lived in. And Bruce Dern is a legend.
"I'm sick" bit is great. I still will yell out, "HEY! PINNOCHIO!" to my youngest when I catch him daydreaming.
The best bit of physical comedy is when he slides down the steps after being blown up.
Your guy’s review perfectly encapsulates the two reactions people have to this movie. One person’s face is saying “wtf am I watching,” while the other person is laughing at everything. Haha
Movie is so good. So underrated. Dark comedy.
One of my favorite movies. All the lines, situations. Too funny. Henry Gibson from Laugh In....Ok now you have to watch Neighbors....John Belushi, Dan Akroyd.
I had forgotten how hysterical "The Burbs" is! An amazing cast, especially the supporting cast: Bruce Dern, Henry Gibson, Brother Theodore, Gale Gordon, Wendy Schaal who is now the voice of Lois on "American Dad". Just incredible people!
Ah, the middle class and community. Those were the days. Hanks was the absolute best during his prime
Favourite character: the young guy watching everything as entertainment! Before the internet and reaction videos, this movie has it's own reaction video built in.
Before on demand & streaming, we had VHS tapes. And boy did I watch, rewatch and repeat the small collection of movies we owned. This was one of them. Love it so much still. 🤘🏽
He could have been worse. He could have tried to explain time travel while eating.
For me the line that always gets me peeing my shorts is when Rumsfeld dumps the plate of brownies after falling through the porch... just casually like it happens every day: "There goes the goddamn brownies."
Not mad. Not surprised. Just...shit happens. LMAO
And I've seen this movie at least 25 times.
I’m surprised they didn’t laugh at the scene where Ray crushes the beer cans after Art tells him about slipping a note under the Klopecks door then knocking and running on their door 😂😂😂😂😂
An all-time favorite! “Satan is good. Satan is your pal!”
Loved this movie, dark humor comedy, mystery, horror
Tom Hanks is hilarious when he gets in the ambulance. Classic. 🤣
'Nothing but trouble' is another one of those great comedy horrors
I remember watching this as a kid and thinking for maaaaany years that the title was The Burps. Horror comedies were the genre that me and my mom agreed on the most so this and Nothing But Trouble were among our favorites.
The bit when Tom picks up the stretcher and throws it in the ambulance always makes me laugh.
Plus when Bruce Dern wants to fight the little dog that’s barking at the window.
One of the reasons this movie is "weird" rather than hilarious for everyone is that they probably haven't actually lived in the suburbs. If you've lived there, this movie really hits home. The same was true of my other sleeper favorite: Office Space. If you worked in an office environment in the late 1990s, Office Space was on a level that people who didn't work in such an environment did not understand.
My favorite movie from my childhood!
Love this movie! My favorite character is Rumsfeld. His whole demeanor is hilarious. I love the whole scene where Art goes to Ray's back yard to tell him about the "I know what you've done" note they slipped under the Clopecs door.
I've never seen anybody drive their garbage down to the curb and bang the hell out of it with a stick. Best line ever!
i haven't seen this in a good 20+ years and it just keeps getting funnier and funnier with each watch
Easily my favorite Tom Hanks comedy -- plus, Joe Dante directing; love it lots!
My second favourite is "The Money Trap". Still waiting for someone to react to.
@@Cau_No Think you meant "The Money Pit"!
@@The-Underbaker Yes, that's the title.
" It Came With The Frame..."
"The Mrs. isn't quite sure if this movie is funny or appalling as she watches The 'Burbs (1989)"
Pretty much my reaction seeing it in the theater as an 11 year old in 1989.
I saw it. Definitely Funny.
It really isn’t that funny.
This is not a 1 watch film. So many things get missed. Love how Ruben bee lines right to Ray Peterson and never, never isn't up his butt the entire visit. Cause he thinks he wrote the note and slipped it under the door. Favorite movie of all time. I've been watching it since it came out when I was 8.
There go the God damn brownies!! One of my all time favorite lines of any movie lol.
It is the weirdest phobia I've ever heard of. People eating and sounds of food being eaten. XD
2:43 Like in Lost :)
6:57 That is a great scene with Ennio Morricone's music & I like that the last zoom in is with the dogs eyes :D
10:27 Hey that is Robert Picardo... have I noticed that before...
12:08 I have remembered that line since first seeing this film :D
16:53 32 year old Carrie Fisher looked hot.
I love this movie, just like all of the other movies directed by Joe Dante: The Gremlins films, Small Soldiers, Innerspace, Matinee, Piranha, The Howling, the list goes on. I also loved the music composed for this film by the late, great Jerry Goldsmith. He composed the scores for every Joe Dante film until his death in 2004. Not to mention the many other films he composed the scores for, spanning a wide range of film genres. As for my favorite character from this film, I have to go with Corey Feldman's character, Ricky. He had some of the best parts.
NOTHING BUT TROUBLE with Chevy Chase, Demi Moore, John Candy, & Dan Aykroyd… is an underrated genre-bender. If you’ve never seen it, it’s a must! Lol
One of the weirdest mainstream movies I have ever seen. Full of stars though.
@@MrDeadstu lol- right!
Great movie lol
Tom Hanks before he became “ serious “ an actor . What a good actor he is too .
One of my all time favs 😃 I still laugh when they figure out the dog dug up a femur lol 😆 you should react to Raising Arizona ☺️
I love this movie today but when my parents took me to see it in the theaters at age 10 it scared the everloving crap out of me. It's not like it's all that intense but I think it was about the dark tone and suspense, both of which were completely new comcepts to me.
"God I love this street." Best line ever.
Satan is a nice guy, Satan is our pal. lol. My favorite line.
This is one of my family's favorite movies ever. As big and broad as the humor gets, there are also tons of very subtle, relatable gags as well. I mean, how many people have actually seen this movie without realizing that not only does Art accidentally eat dogfood, Carol could have stopped him and does absolutely nothing to keep him from eating it?
My favorite character is Art, because he's just so absurd it's funny.
Art is fucking awesome.
I wouldn't want him as a neighbor , but I love him on the big screen.
" i mean look at the size of this thing ...do you thnk it come off a Chicken or something? " love that line lol
This may have already been answered but Tom Hanks character was watching “race with the devil” while sitting in his bed. It’s a great movie and I highly recommend you guys giving it a watch!!! My mother watched it at the theaters when she was a teenager and was scared to death driving home afterwards. PLEASE WATCH IT!!
Forgot how good and fun this movie is! Loved you guys reviewed this movie. Going to go watch it again now. Wish they made more movies like the Burbs. Great video and love the channel.
Jason Dyer: I love that the husband is cracking up the. entire. movie. It really is great to see other people enjoy this as much as we do
