Harold Faltermeyer wrote the "Axel F" track specifically for this film, so yes they inserted it into the background pretty much everytime Eddie is on screen. Paramount wanted to get their money's worth!...😂😅😊
Most of the lines spoken by Eddie were improvised or rewritten by him. The film's screenplay was fairly serious originally. Sylvester Stallone was originally attached to the film but left when they decided not to go as dark as he wanted. Stallone ended up using his version of the story as the basis for his film "Cobra".
"You're not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe?" I loved when jokes like sounding too white could be made without sounding mean. It's hilarious when Eddie does it like this.
The overly comic deaths plus the stormtrooper aim of the hoods has probably a residual effect of the fact that the location for Maitland's house is the same as the mansion at the end of Commando where Arnold S. blows everyone and everything away without a scratch...lmbo
1. Movie magic: An entire truck loaded with EMPTY cigarette boxes. 2. IMVHO Eddies' best movies are "Trading Places and "Coming to America"🤩🤩 3. Serge/Bronson Pinchot was in a funny series "Perfect Strangers". 4. Jenny/Lisa Eilbacher played Segar in "An Officer and a Gentleman" HINT HINT 5. Maitland/Steven Koff is one of the best bad guys ever! He also played the Soviet Colonel in "Rambo II". 6. Billy/Judge Reinhold played Brad Hamilton in "Fast Times at Ridgemont High".
You two you should check out 48Hrs. Eddie Murphy's first movie. It kicked off the Buddy-Cop craze. 48Hrs. is a masterclass in chemistry. Nick Nolte & Murphy perform a perfect dance with each other.
Damon Wayans specifically in this movie because Eddie wanted to give a young unknown black comic a helping hand. And it helped. Wayans got roles out of this and had a hit movie career for a short while. I also bumped into him at the Comedy Store once (1999) and smashed his chest with my elbow and then I made a joke in the audience that made him lose it laughing. EDIT - and just wait to see who the young comic he gives a scene to in the sequel is !
At 16:00 Eddie Murphy laughs at the two people walking down the street because they are wearing the same outfit Eddie Murphy wore in his stand up show called "Raw" It's a classic and I highly recommend it. I can see why the Michael Jackson idea came from though. I used to own a red leather jacket with a lot of zippers back in the day.
The theme song is Axel F. (Axel Foley) and was written by Harold Faltermeyer for this movie, but also became popular on it's own merit. It served as the theme for the movie and became an international number one hit in 1985. Other songs included: The Heat Is On - Glenn Frey (opening scene) Neutron Dance - The Pointer Sisters (truck chase) New Attitude - Patti LaBelle (bar scene) Stir It Up - Patti LaBelle (pulling up to hotel) All of these were very popular during the period.
I think maybe that you 2 missed that the fruit buffet guy with the bananas was a cameo by Damon Wayans before he became famous. Eddie likes to put comedians he likes in bit roles in his films.
Sylvester Stallone was meant to play the role as Axel Foley but he kept making changes to the script and in the end it he had rewritten it too much so they ended up using Eddie Murphy instead. Sylvester Stallone made a movie using his version of the script it's the movie Cobra.
Maybe it’s the whole Boss movie reaction package but what I notice is there is no over talking, especially thru good parts(surprisingly) 👍🏼 Movie fact: the hotel clerk check out at the end of the movie was the director of this flick(Martin Brest)
Thanks for noticing, Johne. I spend a tremendous amount of time in editing to make sure all the relevant dialogue can still be heard and our talking happens mainly over "silent" parts. (:
I faintly remember watching this movie when it first came out, and have seen it multiple times over the years, its a classic. When watching this time when y'all commented on the amount of vulgarity in the beginning i thought about the first time i watched and thought hmmm probably not the best movie for an 8 year old im about to call my parents and find out why they were so negligent lol
Little funfact: The very rough idea for this movie came from the fact that Michael Eisner then executive of Paramount got pulled over in his new car in hollywood and wondered what life as a cop was like in that area...and the rest is history
Another great reaction guys. Just to note, there is no join icon showing. Congrats Jessica for your best actress award. That’s amazing. Can’t wait for your Mrs Doubtfire reaction. Take care til next time.
Thank you so much, Jill. Also, thanks for letting us know about the "Join" button, that's strange and I'll look into it! Currently editing Mrs. Doubtfire. That was a fun movie! (:
Congrats baby girl be watching that from uk. Thanks for yet another great reaction, from true beauty and a most amazing male jaw line love you guys 🙏🫶🇬🇧
AwEsOmE reaction y'all - REALLLLLY enjoyed watching this with y'all💯 The supplementary video is also fantastic - your both doing a truly fantastic job and i can't wait for more‼️🙏‼️
Friend of mine lives directly behind the Bev Hills hotel and I spent years of my time staying there. Had a good relationship with the hotel staff who would frequently return one of my dogs.
Looks to me like he gets arrested in Downtown Los Angeles. Also, when the Lieutenant says “take him to the city limits”, does he mean Beverly Hill city limits ? Because that’s only a handful of city blocks from the department, being as Beverly Hills Police Dept. area is tiny. First place I lived in Los Angeles was nice international hotel (Sofitel next to Beverly Center) in 1996 that was $148.50/night. I was there for 5 months. A local call to get on dialup was $1.19 each call (normal price back then was 10¢-20¢). Room service too. Luckily, the bill was not on me. $10.5k when I checked out and it took them several hours to print the bill.
Thanks for sharing some of your history. Nice to have lived behind the Bev Hills Hotel, a good area. Yeah, you're right, the BH city limits would indeed just be a few blocks, but most people won't know. Woah, $10.5k, good thing the bill was not on you, just like in BHC movie! (:
A lot of what went on back then could not be done today because we can track anything at any time. There would be digital printouts of everything. Her telling Victor that she had not seen Foley would have been prover wrong by security cameras in the Hotel or maybe even in the room
I only liked the first "Beverly Hills Cop", so Just reacting to this one is good enough for me. I do however recommend my favorite Eddie Murphy movies: "Trading" Places", "Coming To America", "48 HRS", and "Another 48HRS".
Fyi...all the bits in the car between Rosewood and Taggart were all improvised. Martin Brest, the director, told the actors to act like an old married couple...Rosewood obviously as the wife and they went with it.
Hello Mike, great to see you and the very lovely Jessica!😊 I was looking forward to some of Jessica's laughter for this one, although I know some of the comedy is subtle. The main theme to the film was made by Harold Faltermeier and is titled "Axel F" standing for Axel Foley.😉 The music video for the song has clips from the film. Those two black and red leather clad people walking down the sidewalk are a callback to when Eddie Murphy wore a similar outfit in his 1983 stand up special "Delirious". It was indeed influenced by Michael Jackson. The guy that gives Axel the bananas is a cameo by a young unknown actor Damon Wayans, part of the famous Wayans family. I have seen the 4th film recently, "Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F" (2024). It aired on a popular streaming network. No spoilers other than Eddie Murphy looks half his age, and the soundtrack is very good. "Beverly Hills Cop III" (1994) is generally considered the weakest film. Great reactions by you and Jessica for your very first Beverly Hills Cop film, Mike!!!!🎬👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you, Mike, we appreciate you watching and sharing some extra info. I researched "Axel F" a bit and the whole fiasco behind the soundtrack etc. Thanks for your input and have a great weekend. Currently editing Mrs. Doubtfire, which has lots of Jessica's laughter! ((:
Congrats Jess! You guys seem so cool and I’ve enjoyed a bunch of your reactions. This movie was originally going to be Sylvester Stallone. He wanted to change it to be more action as opposed to comedy and that’s why he ended up making Cobra instead. Next Eddie movie should be 48 Hours also starring Nick Nolte. A harder edge action comedy. And Trading Pkaces. The guy who plays Serge is in a great Tarantino script but directed by Tony Scott. True Romance. Has an incredible cast and has one of the greatest scenes in all movies and I believe it’s actually referred to as “The Scene”.
You’re welcome. Was Jess ok? She looked very uncomfortable like she had back pain or something. Also Taggert is in a movie I think you would like called Midnight Run. Stars Robert DeNiro and Charles Grodin.
@@jamesdamiano8894 Hi James, yes, Jess has had enormous neck/shoulder/back pain ever since a scooter accident a few years ago. Still trying to recover. I told her to order a better chair for our reaction. Thanks for asking, that's very kind of you! (:
Bronson Pinchot in True Romance is exceptionally noteable due to the fact that his performance is as memorable as the other insanely high level of performances and cast, in that movie. At the time it was like, “holy cow! Dennis Hopper, Chris Walken, Gandolfini, Brad Pitt, Gary Oldman……and Balki from Perfect Strangers?!” Brilliant movie by all involved.
Y'all should consider watching the Police Academy movies, there's 7 in total! If you want the pinnacle of Polce comedies, those movies are it! 😁 by the way, i just subscribed 😉
Hey Cowboy, thank you so much for watching AND subscribing, we appreciate it! I've heard of "Police Academy", but wasn't aware that there are 7 of them. I put them on our list. Thanks! (:
What always catch my attention, that smoke truck on beginning, how's that a weird full trailer, cause basically first if not only time I see one of kind on a movie. They all seem to be semitrailers in usa. Well, just wondering the idea behind that. Great movie, must say.
Another enjoyable reaction, and I look forward to more. The sequels, particularly the second, are pretty good, but for the limited amount of time you have available, they’re really not essential. As in the vast majority of cases, the original carries the real essence of the concept. Truly worthy sequels remain a rarity, unfortunately. I continue to enjoy the two of you and your great channel. There’s such a vast and rich universe of titles waiting to explore, and I look forward to seeing your reaction to many of them. Perhaps at some point you’ll get around to some of the great classics from the 60s and 70s. And congratulations on the acting award!
YOU GUYS GOTTA DO 2 AT LEAST!!! 😊 3 IS GOOD TOO I THINK CAUSE IT HAS AXEL'S BOSS IN IT👍 BUT ALSO BECAUSE 4 CAME OUT ( 3 JUL ) SO ( AXEL F ) JUST ONE OF THOSE GR88888 80'S SERIES I.E DIE HARD, LETHAL WEAPON, MISSING IN ACTION, ANYWAY GUYS, HAVE FUN! 💯
You've just discovered one of AMERICA'S GREATEST COMEDIANS! Eddie M. started out on Saturday Night Live in sketch comedies & was doing Stand Up Comedy in Night Clubs! He's been in Movies ever since then! He's a Millionaire & A Comedy Genius!
Firstly many a congratulations are in order for you Jessica on your UK Film fest Best Actress award, well done and I’m sure there will be more to follow in the coming years! Now for the rundown! @5:42 hmm, language ok to watch with the kids, wholesome fun for the whole family! Yea, except for the profanity laden next 40 minutes, I’m sure it won’t turn their kids into instant potty mouths, I’m sure it’ll be fine, it’s fine * awkward cough * @7:15 Jess I find it’s superior in the effect as it’s all practical, the double trailer link actually surprised me as it makes for a crazier chase yet will take high speed corners better than a full size single long container, probably why they chose it, also quite the shot where it’s pulled out enough to conceal the stuntman’s face for those wild hang on moments and I just have to also say what’s so nuts about this is yes some crazy real world chases and destruction has happened but if you look at the damage and mayhem being caused even most real criminals wouldn’t even do this for a getaway lol. @11:48 Prophecies of Bosstrodamus revealed! @15:11 For this and many other Eddie Murphy characters is a trademark of high energy fast talking bullshit to misdirect from being detected easily as a con @16:01 I can never tell if Axel’s character is laughing because he was just bsing about an interview with Michael Jackson, or if he just thinks they look ridiculous despite the fashion being very in at the time. @18:34 Nice business office Kimono there pal… @19:15 Yeap, that’s right, despite being thrown through the window you’re now being forcibly removed for vagrancy! LA beat cops in the 80’s, oof! @31:48 Judge Reinhold’s issues a ruling! He’s the perfect casting of soft spoken, mild mannered and straight edged type yet a bit more to him for being coaxed into some rule breaking, also known for Seinfeld as the creepy close talker. @36:12 I’m gonna use a meme here, sorry for any offence caused but - Why are u geh? That’s a good question! Because it’s an act! @37:11 Well I’ve got something to say to that skin toned mole in the dead middle of your forehead! @46:44 Bit of a Blues Brothers moment here, if you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll get what I mean when you do @47:44 - Learned from the master! @48:50 Sgt you were finally cool for once already, let’s keep that trend going! Thanks so much Mike & Jessica for all you do both YT and beyond, until next time!
part 2 will blow you away .. its one of teh best sequels ever. it has more jokes, more action , better villain , more cameos .. but part 4 was very disappointing for me..
Thanks for the reminder, Dana. The movie is on our list, but we have over 800 movies on it, which adds up to over 12 years of watch-time, so you can see our dilemma, but we appreciate it. And thanks for watching! (:
@BossMovieReactions I know you have tons of requests, but nit all of them will give you top reactions and likes js! Just trying to give you top quality content to help to elevate your channel the most! I promise it will get better reactions than your past few hands down! Love you guys and your channel!
Perhaps you would've enjoyed this movie more had you seen it in the theater with a crowd who picked up on all the humor, probably shouldn't watch anymore Eddie movies because this was one of his absolute best, along with a lot of other bangers, but they're similar in humor, good luck though. 🤔
Hence the expression the banana in the tailpipe lol. So hey, have you ever thought about hiring an editor? I've read they can be from 15-50 per hour, but some of the professionals might do 375 per vid. Obviously thats all a lot. But I know you bust your butt and it takes a lot of time, so it "could" be worth it if you're trying to get out and do other things. You really do a SUPERB job. I really mean that. Just offering a suggestion if you feel like sometimes it's too much work
Hi there, first of all, thank you so much for your kind words. Yes, the thought of having someone edit for us did cross my mind, but there's no way that we could afford it and no way that they could do it the way we want it to be done. I hate "tooting" my own horn, but the amount of time I invest in editing and fixing the sound is a bit crazy. It easily takes me 30-40+ hours to edit one video. Even if I'd only pay $20/h, that would be $700 per video ($2,800 per month). I don't know what we're going to to in the future, but for now, we just keep at it. Thanks for watching! (:
Haha, well, as far as I know, she likes Eddie Murphy and she certainly knew it was a comedy. But she did LAUGH much harder yesterday when we recorded our reaction to Mrs. Doubtfire. So, who knows? Thanks for watching, Harley.
Yeah, well, you should consider that it can take between 35 - 55 hours to create ONE single video, which can result in at least 10 hours a day if you're trying to upload one video a week. Then you add all the work we do as filmmakers, the development phase, pre-production, production, post-production, plus marketing, promoting, networking, auditions, acting classes, coaching, etc. There's a lot more, but I assume you get the point, yes? Anyway, most people have no idea what it takes to pull something like this off, and that's okay, how could they know, right? So, I understand. All I can say is, thanks for watching, we appreciate it! (:
Hi Doug, I had to look it up. I guess you're talking about the TV show, huh? -- FALLOUT: In a future, post-apocalyptic Los Angeles brought about by nuclear decimation, citizens must live in underground bunkers to protect themselves from radiation, mutants and bandits. -- Thanks for the suggestion, it's noted. (:
Hi Mike & Jessica I have some other recommendations Frozen 1&2 The Peanuts Movie (2015) Down With Love (2003) Starsky & Hutch (2004) Wild Hogs (2007) Good Burger (1997)
This is one of the most lackluster reactions I've ever seen to this movie, you guys hardly cracked a smile.... Most reactors will laugh when something funny happens but you guys barely showed any emotion, thumbs down for me
Wow, you're a lonely voice out there, my friend, but that's okay, maybe try another one of our reactions, and then we'll see. We're getting so much love on our channel, it's only fair to get a thumbs down once in a while. Thanks for watching and give us another chance, Z. Tomas1! ((:
@@BossMovieReactionsThats ok, I think I'll pass watching any of your other reactions, I think I would have more fun watching paint dry, but good luck on getting more subs, I'm sure the 8k you have are getting lonely 😂
@@ztomas1 No worries, maybe you can't tell the difference between fake and authentic, but your response tells me much about who you are. You know, it takes the average TH-cam channel 22 months to get 1,000 subscribers, we started in January and we're already at 8,000, so we're doing well even without you. But I honestly wish you the best and I hope you'll find a good fit for your personality. Take care! (:
@@DrJohnnyFever. people don't commit for attention. When someone commits the way PaiMai667 did is because the commits help the channel just like the thumbs up.
Eddie Murphy was 23 years old when he shot this movie. He turned down a role in Ghostbusters to do Beverly Hills Cop!
Yes, I've read that in a trivia post. Thx! (:
Harold Faltermeyer wrote the "Axel F" track specifically for this film, so yes they inserted it into the background pretty much everytime Eddie is on screen. Paramount wanted to get their money's worth!...😂😅😊
Yeah, I read a bit about the "Axel F," soundtrack fiasco etc. Turned out well in the end. (:

Yes, that's what I've read in the trivia as well. It would've been a totally different movie. (:
Eddie wore a leather suit in Delirious. That's what he was laughing at
Yes, I've just read that somewhere as well. Thanks for sharing! (:
15:55, when she says, "That type of behavior gets rewarded". Yes it does, and thank you for calling it out.
Yep, thanks for calling out that she was calling it out! ((:
great reaction, team. This is the perfect 80s film. No way you could lose with Murphy, 80s synthpop soundtrack and a buddy cop theme.
Yeah, I can see why it was so popular. Thanks for watching! (:
Delighted that you reacted to this classic movie.
Delighted that you're watching. Thanks! (:
"You're not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe?" I loved when jokes like sounding too white could be made without sounding mean. It's hilarious when Eddie does it like this.

Another 80’s comedy/mystery where the main character does BS’ing and wordplay to get information is Chevy Chase’s Fletch. Synth tracks too.
Friend of mine lives directly behind the Bev Hills hotel and I spent years of my time staying there. Had a good relationship with the hotel staff who would frequently return one of my dogs.
Looks to me like he gets arrested in Downtown Los Angeles.
Also, when the Lieutenant says “take him to the city limits”, does he mean Beverly Hill city limits ? Because that’s only a handful of city blocks from the department, being as Beverly Hills Police Dept. area is tiny.

You’re welcome. Was Jess ok? She looked very uncomfortable like she had back pain or something. Also Taggert is in a movie I think you would like called Midnight Run. Stars Robert DeNiro and Charles Grodin.
@@jamesdamiano8894 Hi James, yes, Jess has had enormous neck/shoulder/back pain ever since a scooter accident a few years ago. Still trying to recover. I told her to order a better chair for our reaction. Thanks for asking, that's very kind of you! (:
Bronson Pinchot in True Romance is exceptionally noteable due to the fact that his performance is as memorable as the other insanely high level of performances and cast, in that movie. At the time it was like, “holy cow! Dennis Hopper, Chris Walken, Gandolfini, Brad Pitt, Gary Oldman……and Balki from Perfect Strangers?!” Brilliant movie by all involved.
Also Midnight Run is a standard film school teaching device. It has everything.
Im not gunna fall for the banana in the tail pipe.
LOL. ((:
Y'all should consider watching the Police Academy movies, there's 7 in total! If you want the pinnacle of Polce comedies, those movies are it! 😁 by the way, i just subscribed 😉
Hey Cowboy, thank you so much for watching AND subscribing, we appreciate it! I've heard of "Police Academy", but wasn't aware that there are 7 of them. I put them on our list. Thanks! (:
What always catch my attention, that smoke truck on beginning, how's that a weird full trailer, cause basically first if not only time I see one of kind on a movie. They all seem to be semitrailers in usa. Well, just wondering the idea behind that. Great movie, must say.
Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching, Jay. (:
Another enjoyable reaction, and I look forward to more. The sequels, particularly the second, are pretty good, but for the limited amount of time you have available, they’re really not essential. As in the vast majority of cases, the original carries the real essence of the concept. Truly worthy sequels remain a rarity, unfortunately.
I continue to enjoy the two of you and your great channel. There’s such a vast and rich universe of titles waiting to explore, and I look forward to seeing your reaction to many of them. Perhaps at some point you’ll get around to some of the great classics from the 60s and 70s. And congratulations on the acting award!
Hi David, thank you so much for your kind words and your take on sequels, etc. We appreciate you! Thanks! (:
You guys should react to Eddie Murphy's stand-up films, Delirious and Raw.
Not a bad idea. Thanks, Estrada! (:
YOU GUYS GOTTA DO 2 AT LEAST!!! 😊 3 IS GOOD TOO I THINK CAUSE IT HAS AXEL'S BOSS IN IT👍 BUT ALSO BECAUSE 4 CAME OUT ( 3 JUL ) SO ( AXEL F ) JUST ONE OF THOSE GR88888 80'S SERIES I.E DIE HARD, LETHAL WEAPON, MISSING IN ACTION, ANYWAY GUYS, HAVE FUN! 💯
Thanks for that. I made a note of it! (:
You've just discovered one of AMERICA'S GREATEST COMEDIANS! Eddie M. started out on Saturday Night Live in sketch comedies & was doing Stand Up Comedy in Night Clubs! He's been in Movies ever since then! He's a Millionaire & A Comedy Genius!
Yes, I can see why the movie was such a success. Thanks for watching and sharing the info! (:
Firstly many a congratulations are in order for you Jessica on your UK Film fest Best Actress award, well done and I’m sure there will be more to follow in the coming years! Now for the rundown!
@5:42 hmm, language ok to watch with the kids, wholesome fun for the whole family! Yea, except for the profanity laden next 40 minutes, I’m sure it won’t turn their kids into instant potty mouths, I’m sure it’ll be fine, it’s fine * awkward cough *
@7:15 Jess I find it’s superior in the effect as it’s all practical, the double trailer link actually surprised me as it makes for a crazier chase yet will take high speed corners better than a full size single long container, probably why they chose it, also quite the shot where it’s pulled out enough to conceal the stuntman’s face for those wild hang on moments and I just have to also say what’s so nuts about this is yes some crazy real world chases and destruction has happened but if you look at the damage and mayhem being caused even most real criminals wouldn’t even do this for a getaway lol.
@11:48 Prophecies of Bosstrodamus revealed!
@15:11 For this and many other Eddie Murphy characters is a trademark of high energy fast talking bullshit to misdirect from being detected easily as a con
@16:01 I can never tell if Axel’s character is laughing because he was just bsing about an interview with Michael Jackson, or if he just thinks they look ridiculous despite the fashion being very in at the time.
@18:34 Nice business office Kimono there pal…
@19:15 Yeap, that’s right, despite being thrown through the window you’re now being forcibly removed for vagrancy!
LA beat cops in the 80’s, oof!
@31:48 Judge Reinhold’s issues a ruling!
He’s the perfect casting of soft spoken, mild mannered and straight edged type yet a bit more to him for being coaxed into some rule breaking, also known for Seinfeld as the creepy close talker.
@36:12 I’m gonna use a meme here, sorry for any offence caused but -
Why are u geh? That’s a good question!
Because it’s an act!
@37:11 Well I’ve got something to say to that skin toned mole in the dead middle of your forehead!
@46:44 Bit of a Blues Brothers moment here, if you haven’t seen it yet, you’ll get what I mean when you do
@47:44 - Learned from the master!
@48:50 Sgt you were finally cool for once already, let’s keep that trend going!
Thanks so much Mike & Jessica for all you do both YT and beyond, until next time!
Haha, thanks for that list, Adam! We enjoyed it, everything from the Bosstrodamus to the awkward cough! ((:
part 2 will blow you away .. its one of teh best sequels ever. it has more jokes, more action , better villain , more cameos ..
but part 4 was very disappointing for me..
Okay, good to know! Thanks for sharing! (-:
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
17 thanks back to you, my friend! (:
Love to c u guys react to CRASH. Very interesting. Character development. After thoughts too .
Yes, Crash has been on my list for a while now... Thanks for the reminder! (:
Ooooh, if you’re talking about the Crash I’m thinking of, that’s a good little movie.
❤❤❤
Thank you x 3 !!! (((:
def watch part 2 on the channel. its better
Good to know, thanks for the input, Evil Handyman! (:
Still waiting for you guys to check out Tombstone. I know you will love the movie and cinematography and directing! PLEASE check it out ASAP!
Thanks for the reminder, Dana. The movie is on our list, but we have over 800 movies on it, which adds up to over 12 years of watch-time, so you can see our dilemma, but we appreciate it. And thanks for watching! (:
@BossMovieReactions I know you have tons of requests, but nit all of them will give you top reactions and likes js! Just trying to give you top quality content to help to elevate your channel the most! I promise it will get better reactions than your past few hands down! Love you guys and your channel!
@@danafouts9620 Thank you so much for your suggestion and encouraging words, we appreciate it! (:
Perhaps you would've enjoyed this movie more had you seen it in the theater with a crowd who picked up on all the humor, probably shouldn't watch anymore Eddie movies because this was one of his absolute best, along with a lot of other bangers, but they're similar in humor, good luck though. 🤔
Yeah, nothing beats the theater experience, but it was a fun movie and I can see why it was so successful back in the 80s. Thanks for watching! (:
Hence the expression the banana in the tailpipe lol. So hey, have you ever thought about hiring an editor? I've read they can be from 15-50 per hour, but some of the professionals might do 375 per vid. Obviously thats all a lot. But I know you bust your butt and it takes a lot of time, so it "could" be worth it if you're trying to get out and do other things. You really do a SUPERB job. I really mean that. Just offering a suggestion if you feel like sometimes it's too much work
Hi there, first of all, thank you so much for your kind words. Yes, the thought of having someone edit for us did cross my mind, but there's no way that we could afford it and no way that they could do it the way we want it to be done. I hate "tooting" my own horn, but the amount of time I invest in editing and fixing the sound is a bit crazy. It easily takes me 30-40+ hours to edit one video. Even if I'd only pay $20/h, that would be $700 per video ($2,800 per month). I don't know what we're going to to in the future, but for now, we just keep at it. Thanks for watching! (:
Does Jessica understand that this is supposed to be a comedy? Or does she just not like Eddie Murphy? She didn’t seem into it.
Haha, well, as far as I know, she likes Eddie Murphy and she certainly knew it was a comedy. But she did LAUGH much harder yesterday when we recorded our reaction to Mrs. Doubtfire. So, who knows? Thanks for watching, Harley.
Reaction videos are the welfare of TH-cam but I guess it beats working for a living.
Yeah, well, you should consider that it can take between 35 - 55 hours to create ONE single video, which can result in at least 10 hours a day if you're trying to upload one video a week. Then you add all the work we do as filmmakers, the development phase, pre-production, production, post-production, plus marketing, promoting, networking, auditions, acting classes, coaching, etc. There's a lot more, but I assume you get the point, yes? Anyway, most people have no idea what it takes to pull something like this off, and that's okay, how could they know, right? So, I understand. All I can say is, thanks for watching, we appreciate it! (:
You guys need to react to the show Fallout this will 3 x your subscribers it's what is hot
Hi Doug, I had to look it up. I guess you're talking about the TV show, huh? -- FALLOUT: In a future, post-apocalyptic Los Angeles brought about by nuclear decimation, citizens must live in underground bunkers to protect themselves from radiation, mutants and bandits. -- Thanks for the suggestion, it's noted. (:
Get proper headphones
Yes, thank you! (:
Hi Mike & Jessica I have some other recommendations
Frozen 1&2
The Peanuts Movie (2015)
Down With Love (2003)
Starsky & Hutch (2004)
Wild Hogs (2007)
Good Burger (1997)
Thanks, Roy, our list has grown to over 800 movies, but I added your suggestions to our list. Thx! (:
??? Yikes
1 and 2 are good 3 is horrible
Good to know! Thanks! (:
Can you do is a favor and put some tape on her mouth
Can you do me a favor and not be rude? (:
The guy reactor seems very insecure. Not much fun to watch. Eddie Murphy murders this role and guy is sitting there looking like a cardboard cut out
My friend, you're a lonely voice out there and your observational skills lack substance. But thanks for watching. (:
This is one of the most lackluster reactions I've ever seen to this movie, you guys hardly cracked a smile.... Most reactors will laugh when something funny happens but you guys barely showed any emotion, thumbs down for me
Wow, you're a lonely voice out there, my friend, but that's okay, maybe try another one of our reactions, and then we'll see. We're getting so much love on our channel, it's only fair to get a thumbs down once in a while. Thanks for watching and give us another chance, Z. Tomas1! ((:
@@BossMovieReactionsThats ok, I think I'll pass watching any of your other reactions, I think I would have more fun watching paint dry, but good luck on getting more subs, I'm sure the 8k you have are getting lonely 😂
@@ztomas1 No worries, maybe you can't tell the difference between fake and authentic, but your response tells me much about who you are. You know, it takes the average TH-cam channel 22 months to get 1,000 subscribers, we started in January and we're already at 8,000, so we're doing well even without you. But I honestly wish you the best and I hope you'll find a good fit for your personality. Take care! (:
Sorry, not a fan of the Beverly Hills Series, I still hope you have fun, and I'll see you again next time.
No problem... See ya next time, Pai Mei! ((:
@@DrJohnnyFever. UNO reverse 😛
@@DrJohnnyFever. Not my problem if you don't get it 😘
@@DrJohnnyFever. people don't commit for attention. When someone commits the way PaiMai667 did is because the commits help the channel just like the thumbs up.
