Honestly, Pauly Shore deserves a walk of fame star. He dedicated so much of himself to this Hollywood Entertainment Job and he should never be forgotten
Pauly shore deserves way more recognition man. He literally made my childhood. Encino man, biodome and all his other movies was stuck on repeat. Like he’s organically funny like it’s apart of him.
I was born in 1985, so I grew up watching Pauly. Loved everything he did actually. 11 year old me used to go to the local video store to rent Bio-Dome like every other week. Encino Man and Bio-Dome are still 2 of my favorites.
"Encino Man" is still one of the best early 90s cheesy but really fun and hilarious comedies. But we can all agree Brendan Fraser become the biggest star after that movie
I remember my sister watching "My Super-Sweet 16" on MTV back in the day, and some girl was having her birthday party. Pauly Shore just happend to be walking down the street in front of their house in LA, and decided to join in on the party. The girl had no idea who he was lol
Pauly shore was a huge part of my childhood. I was really sad to see everyone turn their back on him. The interview he did on Rogan was honestly pretty sad. I hope he can make a comeback before it’s all over.
This made me extremely happy to hear. I was worried he'd stopped making movies due to some kind of traumatic life event, or rehab or something, but to hear he's happy doing comedy makes me so pleased for him. Biodome is legit one of my favourite 90's teen idiot movies.
@@robmeagher2443 no all were good but with a very small budget what do you expect something similar to star wars. He's be doing movies for nearly 30 years now. The last three were voice overs and that's not counting the goofy movies
Pauly Shore is one of the greatest forgotten/hidden comedy gems! One of the best examples of the Gen X slacker stereotypes! He wasn’t the older brother that I had, but the one I wanted!
“Encino Man” was the first time one of my friends drove us all to a movie. I remember really liking the movie but in retrospect I think I thought it was awesome that we were a bunch of kids in a car with no adult supervision.
I was actually in the Army when In the Army Now came out! For that reason alone, the movie has a special place in my heart. As for why Shore's career tanked, I think its the curse of comedy actors. No comedy star has stayed on top making movies. Even heavyweights like Jim Carrey, Adam Sandler, and Will Ferell faded from the limelight when their style of humor got stale. It certainly didn't help that Pauly's style of humor appealed to a certain demographic that were destined to age beyond it. I'm glad to see that he's finding some success with standup still. I'd like to see him sometime, if i ever get to Las Vegas.
Don’t you know I’m your first sgt ? I wish you where but I’ve already had a few sgts already. Hahahahaha I always bet my fellow grunts to try that but no one ever took me up on the offer . God that movie is hilarious even more so after being in the army . Can I call you cpr sweatpants
Jim Carrey is actually good unlike Adam Sandler and Will Ferrell… both of them suck! They were never funny. Adam sandler is the most overrated celebrity who’s ever lived. He’s the biggest loser to ever make it in Hollywood and everybody worships the guy. Jim Carrey is in a class by himself above all other comedians, him and Robin Williams are the bests
He had a one note gimmick and didn’t try to mature and branch out as a comedic actor like Tom Hanks and Jim Carrey did. There’s only so much he could do with the “I’m the weasel” schtick.
@@kjellvb1979 yes I grew up at the time and he was a joke even then, there was never a time where people considered him talented no matter how much executives tried to make it happen
Went to his show in Greenville SC! He is still amazing! He had The Whole room rolling from start to finish. Sold so many tickets they had to do an extra show. Been a fan for years and will remain so. Wish they would make more movies with him. They never should have stopped tbh 🤗🙌🏼
I've went back and rewatched Encino Man and Son In Law after not seeing them since I was a kid to see if I had grown out of Pauly Shore's style of humor. I'm happy to say I'm still a fan of The Weasel even at 30.
I’m 32 and still talk like pauly because i grew up as a toddler watching his movies and him on mtv with my sister. If you guys haven’t seen his podcast he used to have, check it out. He just tried to make comedians as uncomfortable as possible and it’s amazing
My mom loved "Son in Law" and when we saw Pauly was coming to town, we were both excited. Between his jokes and some comedian I unfortunately can't remember saying the best line I ever heard in a conservative town. She just asked me what have I done, and I said the greatest thing ever. I love many of Pauly's movies, but he was a mediocre actor, his stage presence as a comedian though was brilliant. I will die on this hill.
I took photos of Pauly a few weeks ago doing his one man show “stick with the dancing” in the Main Room of the Comedy Store and it was truly magical to see him bring the journey home
Born in 98 so I was far past the Pauly Shore age but I recently watched Bio-Sphere and In The Army and had a great time, something just so charming about him, just wins you over
He was definitely a favorite of mine back in the 90s. Son in law, Encino man, biodome and in the army now are still some of my favorites. But fun fact, in the army now is actually a remake of a 1941 movie called "You're in the army now" about 2 goofy vacuum cleaner sales men that join the army
Biodome is a big dump of pig septic tank direa and poly shore annoying vocie so bad that my ears bleeds and want to smash my heads with a sledgehammer and that thing movie puke direa should be down in hell
90s kid so grew up with him. He has a TH-cam Channel with some good content from his actual home. He said in an interview that he is sad that he fell off the way he did which is quite unfortunate. Pauly himself put it down to getting too big too fast, over saturation and a series of poor movie choices by him and his agent that caused him to dry up. He said something like, that he always pictured himself ending up with an Adam Sandler type of career, which we all thought too back in the 90s. But he still does stand up, you can look him up on TH-cam for his channel, and he seems to be in a good place. Great guy and a staple from my and millions of others, childhood(s). Reference: Joe Rogan podcast for info which you can still also look up.
he was not ahead of his time, he was a product of a very particular time. i wish he could have overcome his character sooner and get into diverse roles earlier. i like some of his stuff when he acts and sounds more "normal." still, he always looks, in real life, like he is a very cool dude.
I agree. He rode the wave as long as he could and didn’t develop himself much farther than he needed to. Pauly Shore is not my sort of comedy. But neither was Jim Carey and Adam Sandler in the same era, honestly (though Jim Carey won me over with The Mask, that movie is great in my book). Adam Sandler even won me over with The Wedding Singer. Pauly… not so much. Maybe one day. He doesn’t think have to be a serious actor, just needs to expand his normal roles. Maybe I’ll give him another chance. Maybe he should have been in Tropic Thunder somewhere, who knows
The narration conveys he was some sort of entertainment lord of the decade. Not even close. I was 11 in 95, the guy was present. His popularity wasn't even intrusive
@@KatieLHall-fy1hw I never got the appeal of Jim Carey, even when he was blowing up in the 90s. I liked him in In Living Color, but most of his movies were just stupid... and I was their target demographic as a teenage boy lol
Recently introduced my son in law to what I call the weasel trilogy. Encino Man. Son in Law. And In the Army Now. My daughter already was a fan. The way I watch them is it's the same character in all three at different stages in his life. He just gets a new nick name wherever he goes. Plus Brendon Frasier is in all three.
Encino man and son in law were the only movies that actually had a moral/lil bit o substance/ and was funny....the others bio dome and in the army now.... horrendous
I think Encino Man 2 could be awesome. The first one asked the question of what would a caveman teenager be like, how would he interact with kids at a modern(for the 90's) high school. They could do the same thing, but asking what would a middle-aged caveman be like? Same concept of showing how he interacts with other adults, maybe in a corporate setting. Maybe Dave could be going up against Matt Wilson, or a similar character, for a promotion and Link just fumbles his way into the top spot. Idk, I think it could be fun. And we're all rooting for a Brendan Fraser come-back anyway right?
WoW! I had no idea that his parents OWNED the "Comedy Store". That would have been the coolest childhood ever being able to hang out with the best standup comedians in the world.
it's hard for me to "like" this video since my distaste for Pauly Shore has not ebbed a single bit since I first saw him in the 90's. if it wasn't for the co-stars, I wouldn't have even bothered to see them.. I can not state enough how tiresome I find his comedy. I won't belittle, attack, mock, or in any other way bring down those that do enjoy him.. I think it's great that they do. He makes them happy and I wouldn't trash that feeling for anything.
Just saw him live last month with my wife front row. Still funny as hell. Called me and my wife Nerr-dy kids to make us laugh for the pictures. He just feels real. We were the youngest ones there though 😂
What's funny is that is actually the one Pauly Shore movie that I absolutely hate. It's not even funny it's just f*cking annoying. Encino Man and In The Army Now are on my list of '90s classics. The weasel had his time.
Went to the comedy store a couple weeks ago to see him. Was having a drink out front and he came up off the street and said hi, ordered a drink. He was hilarious.
"Searching for a boy in high school is about as useless as searching for meaning in a Pauly Shore movie." Cher Horowitz Haha, even though there was no real underlying message in Pauly's movies, they still entertained us, for the most part.
Richard jaeckel was in a town without pity 1961 with eg Marshall Kirk Douglas Frank Sutton Directed by gottfried Reinhardt based on the novel by franz Kafka
"You can't stay funny forever" unless your name is Gene Wilder, Bill Hicks, John Cleese, Dave Chappell or Trey Parker whom all have died or still are hilarious and have never stopped being great comedians
Betty White,Joan Rivers,Mel Brooks,, George Burns, George Carlin,Don Rickles, the list goes on and on. Multi generational comics are actually pretty common.
I've always loved pauly. He was so different and still is.. I was the mtv generation and when I got into my teens and pauly was there to entertain and to look up to. I've grew up on his films since I was a young teen. Now at 41 I still look up to him..watch all his films and support him no matter what he does. The weasel is one of a kind.
See Pauly in the Joe Rogan interview. He was honest and forthright about his life. He blamed his demise on a few things. Getting his hair cut for In the Army Now, was one of them.
I think Pauly tried to move past the shtick, albeit a bit too late for it to gel. We all know Disney is notorious for chewing up talented people and spitting them out when they aren't making money like they once did. They could've developed projects for a grown up Pauly rather than make 4 weasel movies. It wasn't solely on him. He has a big heart in all he does though, great timing and a kid-like joy that is harder to market, but fun to watch. At least he was original. I shall be weezing the juice far into the sunset. 😉👌 Thanks for another one!
When I was 19 or 20 I was walking around in Portland and some dude barreled out of a restaurant and knocked me down. Next thing I know I'm getting pummeled by Pauly Shore's bodyguards for the grave offense of getting in the way of a door Pauly Shore was walking through. Eff that guy and his weasel.
In early 2017 Shore had a venue in Corpus Christi, TX. He visited the local Sprouts where my son was the butcher. My son said that he was rude, talked down to staff, a seasoned arrogant jerk. When he had to deal with my son's department, he continued in his condescension. Making eye contact with my imposing 6'5" son who was holding a huge butchery knife, looked back into those condescending eyes, smirked and walked off leaving Shore unattended and stewing.
I believe it he was so nasty to cocktails waitresses here in Vegas. He talked down to everyone. I never liked him after seeing what he was really like in person.
He always seemed like an asshole. I used to think maybe because I was older I didn't get his humor, but I found out he is only 4 years younger than me. I can imagine what he would of been like to be around in the 90s.
he did seem like he would be an asshole now i have met a few celebs in my day like eddie money was really down to earth in fact i talked to him for a good 45 min before i even realized who he was LOL and jimmy buffet is always nice to people and of course daryl marley (bob marley son) was really nice though i think he was high at the time LOL
Pauly Shore was a product of the 1990’s. He just couldn’t re-invent himself as an older man in the 2000’s. He accidentally became the character he portrayed and couldn’t let it go. If he dropped his weezel character and grew up with the rest of his fans, he would probably still be in movies today. Tom Hanks, for example, was able to re-invent himself and he dropped his goofy 80’s shtick.
Richard jaeckel was in chisum 1970 with John Wayne Forrest tucker Hank worden ray teal Ben Johnson patric Knowles Abraham sofar Christopher George John agar William Conrad Chuck Roberson Glenn Corbett Bruce Cabot directed Andrew v McLaglen music by Dominic frontiere
I'll say I was big fan of Pauly Shore in the '90s. Encino man, Son-in-law, In the Army Now, and Jury Duty were great. But he's gimmick got tiresome as the years went on. The Pinocchio movie was hilarious through.
Same, all of those movies cracked me up as a teen. I remember seeing In the Army Now and Jury Duty in the theater. They honestly made me laugh so hard.
Great research :( 00:49 Pauly Shore has made 4 films since the 90's. *NOTE: Top billing movies only. Pauly Shore Is Dead (2003), Adopted (2009), Whiskey Business (2012 TV Movie), Guest House (2020). - Source: IMDb. Don't let the facts interfere with your narrative as a pop-culture parasyte.
He did too many movies as the same character archetype, people got sick of it, and by the time he wanted to change it was too late...... also some of the movies he did were complete dogshit (more so because of low budget, bad writing, or poor directing rather than his acting).
8:08 I guess people like you thought the dancing itos and everything else from the Jay Leno OJ Trial joke book was a riot. I despise Pauly Shore and especially despise Jury Duty because like everyone else who profitted from that trial they basically earned blood money. While he shouldn't burn in hell, his two decades of no career success seems justice to me.
Bio-Dome was one of the only movies I've wanted to watch multiple times. I never knew it wasn't popular. I thought everyone liked it when it came out. It was hilarious to me. I think that movie ended the career of Teresa Hill too. You didn't see her in anything after that movie.
For those of us who have chunks of "The Future of America" remembered word-for-word (and who may or may not still have his cassette from 1991), Pauly Shore is a treasure. It doesn't matter how many cinematic turds he makes. I'd actually love to see him tackle a dramatic role. You never know. He could be great, or bomb in multiple genres. I'd still love him. Has he been on Masked Singer yet?
Didn’t he take over “The Comedy Store” on Sunset Blvd.,? As I think his parents own that. (Sorry typed before I watched the video). I saw him live in Pittsburgh back in the late 80’s early 90’s. When he squirted water on all the girls shirts in the audience. It always amazes me how many hot girls he could get to go backstage with him back then, but that was the times then, he was super popular. Yeah, times have sure changed from that scene. But he was loveeable nonetheless! Last I heard he was running things there and gave up movies thank Goodness 😆
As a “fan” I’m surprised you didn’t have anything good to say about Bio Dome. That’s my favorite go-to movie for seeing Pauly Shore. I miss seeing this guy around. Definitely classic 90s.
"Pauly Shore bypasses all categories to achieve a kind of transcendent fingernails-on-the-blackboard effect. His appeal must be limited to people whose self-esteem and social skills are so damaged that they find humor, or at least relief, in at last encountering a movie character less successful than themselves."- Roger Ebert
I've never paid to see any of his movies, not being a fan of simpering, sophomoric humor combined with horrible "acting." Roger Ebert's reviews saved me. :) (RIP Roger)
Like many professional critics, Roger Ebert is often judgemental, and acts like his subjective opinions are objective facts. Very arrogant. I prefer to only listen to reviewers who ENJOYED what they are reviewing.
Pauly Shore stayed at a hotel in Florida that my mom works at a few years ago. She said he was so chill and had everybody cracking up when he went around asking where all the groupies were.
As much talk as there is recently about Nepotism Babies i gotta say Pauly Shore has never been in that category for me. Dude always came off as a genius product of his environment. Mitzy didn't just shove him in front of a camera she had fucking Sam Kinison take him under his wing. I'd honestly be shocked if we was exposed to that many legends of comedy and didn't come out funny. It sucks he had so many bad deals in the 90's especially with Disney dude was/is funny
I am probably one of the very few people who like him. He had a lot of potential as an actor but was making a lot of bad choices for films. It's too bad, he could have done some serious work and veered off into a much better direction. Still, I like him and I wish he wasn't so down on himself these days.
Wow as a young guy, I’ve only seen Pauly as a weird old guy on podcasts… but recently on his appearances on kill tony, he’s been a lot more attentive and funny so I looked into him and I’m glad I did I had NO clue how successful and talented he actually is! It sucks he had a hard time selling movies when he needed them too the most
I LOVE Pauly Shore! You guys need to do better research, he’s done several films since the 90’s. Idk why you say those things in the beginning of the video. The Pauly Shore is Dead film is ahead of its time.
"WTF Happened to PAULY SHORE?" The world realised how little he had to offer and ignored him. He was only "famous" because his mother passed every big comedian since like the late 60's early 70's. His "fame" was unsustainable, listen to him talk about his past on Joe Rogan, he even says they were the happiest times of his life. Hes a washed up dude in his 50's who still dresses like a teenage girl from the early 2000s.
@@freakazoid4691 plus I’ve never gone on the record complaining how happy I was back in the day. Can’t be jealous of someone who got almost eveything and then lost it all cuz he’s shit haha

Honestly, Pauly Shore deserves a walk of fame star. He dedicated so much of himself to this Hollywood Entertainment Job and he should never be forgotten
I agree. Pauly deserves a spot.
Indeed
People like him getting stars on the walk of fame is why it's no longer an honour getting on the walk of fame. Any talentless loser can get one.
He doesn’t deserve shit . The man sucks d

Those were staples of our Era. " the good old dayz"

"Encino Man" is still one of the best early 90s cheesy but really fun and hilarious comedies. But we can all agree Brendan Fraser become the biggest star after that movie

Right, all of the top comedians mention that place and it always sounds amazing.
That's how he got famous. You didn't think he got famous on Talent, did you?
@@robzilla730 Ohhhh! cruuustyyyyyy

@@robzilla730 hahaaaaa, CruuuuuuunCHyyyyyyyy..
it's hard for me to "like" this video since my distaste for Pauly Shore has not ebbed a single bit since I first saw him in the 90's.
if it wasn't for the co-stars, I wouldn't have even bothered to see them..
I can not state enough how tiresome I find his comedy.
I won't belittle, attack, mock, or in any other way bring down those that do enjoy him.. I think it's great that they do. He makes them happy and I wouldn't trash that feeling for anything.
Just saw him live last month with my wife front row. Still funny as hell. Called me and my wife Nerr-dy kids to make us laugh for the pictures. He just feels real. We were the youngest ones there though 😂
Biodome came out when I was 14 and I watched it a million times. Me and my friends would quote it non stop.
Biodome had that cute girl in it. Worth watching.
What's funny is that is actually the one Pauly Shore movie that I absolutely hate. It's not even funny it's just f*cking annoying. Encino Man and In The Army Now are on my list of '90s classics. The weasel had his time.
Yes! I can't wait to see Pauly Shore in my hometown this October! Already got my tickets ready!
Even as a kid I didn't really find Mr Pauly shore that's funny I made chuckle a couple times at the way he said buddy but that's about it hey buddy 😂😂
Went to the comedy store a couple weeks ago to see him. Was having a drink out front and he came up off the street and said hi, ordered a drink. He was hilarious.
"Searching for a boy in high school is about as useless as searching for meaning in a Pauly Shore movie." Cher Horowitz
Haha, even though there was no real underlying message in Pauly's movies, they still entertained us, for the most part.
Richard jaeckel was in a town without pity 1961 with eg Marshall Kirk Douglas Frank Sutton Directed by gottfried Reinhardt based on the novel by franz Kafka
I'm still waiting for a female to tell me she's going to weeze the ju - ooose, lol.
I remember hating Pauly Shore. I never used to laugh at any of His jokes. Then I forgot about him until this documentary came out.
"You can't stay funny forever" unless your name is Gene Wilder, Bill Hicks, John Cleese, Dave Chappell or Trey Parker whom all have died or still are hilarious and have never stopped being great comedians
Betty White,Joan Rivers,Mel Brooks,, George Burns, George Carlin,Don Rickles, the list goes on and on. Multi generational comics are actually pretty common.
You mean Monty Python never stopped being funny.
John Cleese is still funny ?
What about Adam sandler, Jim carrey & Eddie murphy?
I recently learned there is a real biodome place in Arizona called biosphere2 all these years I thought it was just a Pauly movie
I was one of those guys who saw EVERY SINGLE Pauly Shore 90s film opening weekend in the theaters. I just enjoyed Pauly Shore and his projects.
9:05 fun fact, Biodome has an appearance of Tenacious D, making it one of the best films ever put to celluloid.
Just came to save some trees!
This guy affected my teenage years so much! He is a true icon to me!
I don't know how many times I watched Bio-Dome, In the Army Now and Son in Law when I was a kid. He was so entertaining.
I've always loved pauly. He was so different and still is.. I was the mtv generation and when I got into my teens and pauly was there to entertain and to look up to. I've grew up on his films since I was a young teen. Now at 41 I still look up to him..watch all his films and support him no matter what he does. The weasel is one of a kind.
"You can't be hilarious forever."
*stares in Carlin*
Great episode! I miss 90's Pauly Shore movies. I'm down for Encino Man 2!
I just saw him preform at the Comedy Store, it was rough
Ru…..ufff.
@@fitfogey Google translated that
That's hil-aaaa-re---ous
"Critics didn't like it, but it wasn't for them," the realistic words ever spoken about people who don't like stuff
Pauly Shore! Loved watching him on MTV in the days and his movies were classics imo. Original AF. The guy is comedic from the heart. Long Live Pauly!
See Pauly in the Joe Rogan interview. He was honest and forthright about his life.
He blamed his demise on a few things. Getting his hair cut for In the Army Now, was one of them.
I think Pauly tried to move past the shtick, albeit a bit too late for it to gel. We all know Disney is notorious for chewing up talented people and spitting them out when they aren't making money like they once did. They could've developed projects for a grown up Pauly rather than make 4 weasel movies. It wasn't solely on him. He has a big heart in all he does though, great timing and a kid-like joy that is harder to market, but fun to watch. At least he was original. I shall be weezing the juice far into the sunset.
😉👌 Thanks for another one!
I think you are right, I love his Disney stuff, but also saw him with gloves off onstage, he is brilliant.
@@kubist5424 I believe you, he absorbed some massive talent at the Comedy Store and yet had his own thing. 😉👌
I saw him do standup in Vegas at the end of June and it was fantastic, definitely better than I expected it to be
When I was 19 or 20 I was walking around in Portland and some dude barreled out of a restaurant and knocked me down. Next thing I know I'm getting pummeled by Pauly Shore's bodyguards for the grave offense of getting in the way of a door Pauly Shore was walking through. Eff that guy and his weasel.
That sux!!! Who did that guy think he was? Famous or something...
In early 2017 Shore had a venue in Corpus Christi, TX. He visited the local Sprouts where my son was the butcher. My son said that he was rude, talked down to staff, a seasoned arrogant jerk. When he had to deal with my son's department, he continued in his condescension. Making eye contact with my imposing 6'5" son who was holding a huge butchery knife, looked back into those condescending eyes, smirked and walked off leaving Shore unattended and stewing.
I believe it he was so nasty to cocktails waitresses here in Vegas. He talked down to everyone. I never liked him after seeing what he was really like in person.
I worked with Pauly shore, and I feel obligated everytime he is mentioned to say that he is the worst human I have ever met
I, honestly, have no reason whatsoever to doubt this statement.
What did he do that was so bad?
Dude you have got to share examples of why you say that. Inquiring minds want to know.
He always seemed like an asshole. I used to think maybe because I was older I didn't get his humor, but I found out he is only 4 years younger than me. I can imagine what he would of been like to be around in the 90s.
he did seem like he would be an asshole now i have met a few celebs in my day like eddie money was really down to earth in fact i talked to him for a good 45 min before i even realized who he was LOL and jimmy buffet is always nice to people and of course daryl marley (bob marley son) was really nice though i think he was high at the time LOL
I loved Jury Duty & Biodome BACK IN THE 90s, and I bet I would still love them if I watched them again.
I watched him do stand up about 3 years ago and he explained his downfall. He is the same ol Pauli and still funny as shit
I Respect Pauly Shore! Got To Meet Him Personally At Tampa Bay Comic Con 2023!
He's still going strong and still active. He currently is doing stand-up comedy and has been doing appearances here and there.
I feel like you guys saw my post. I was wondering WTF happened to Pauly Shore! Lol Thanks 👍
Pauly Shore was a product of the 1990’s. He just couldn’t re-invent himself as an older man in the 2000’s. He accidentally became the character he portrayed and couldn’t let it go. If he dropped his weezel character and grew up with the rest of his fans, he would probably still be in movies today. Tom Hanks, for example, was able to re-invent himself and he dropped his goofy 80’s shtick.
I sat 30 feet from him in 1996-97 and he was amazing.
He workouts at my gym…. Very chill humble guy.
Bio-dome probably killed his career
I remember liking it as a kid. I kinda want to rent it this weekend.
Richard jaeckel was in chisum 1970 with John Wayne Forrest tucker Hank worden ray teal Ben Johnson patric Knowles Abraham sofar Christopher George John agar William Conrad Chuck Roberson Glenn Corbett Bruce Cabot directed Andrew v McLaglen music by Dominic frontiere
just got done with VIP seats at his comedy show in Syracuse New York! I grew up in the 90s so I absolutely love this man and how real he is
I'll say I was big fan of Pauly Shore in the '90s. Encino man, Son-in-law, In the Army Now, and Jury Duty were great. But he's gimmick got tiresome as the years went on. The Pinocchio movie was hilarious through.
Richard jaeckel was in 310 to Yuma 1957 with van Heflin Ford Rainey Glenn Ford directed by Delmer daves music by George duning
Same, all of those movies cracked me up as a teen. I remember seeing In the Army Now and Jury Duty in the theater. They honestly made me laugh so hard.
Pauly "40 million box office" Shore will always be remembered as the greatest representation of the 90's for our generation!!!
He is now living on his owwwwwn
Great research :( 00:49 Pauly Shore has made 4 films since the 90's. *NOTE: Top billing movies only. Pauly Shore Is Dead (2003), Adopted (2009), Whiskey Business (2012 TV Movie), Guest House (2020). - Source: IMDb. Don't let the facts interfere with your narrative as a pop-culture parasyte.
He did too many movies as the same character archetype, people got sick of it, and by the time he wanted to change it was too late...... also some of the movies he did were complete dogshit (more so because of low budget, bad writing, or poor directing rather than his acting).
This is why you're irrelevant and he is not
Check out the movie Grizzlie. About acting.
Pauly was never leading man material in films, but he worked well and made a nice life for himself.
Good for him!
8:08 I guess people like you thought the dancing itos and everything else from the Jay Leno OJ Trial joke book was a riot. I despise Pauly Shore and especially despise Jury Duty because like everyone else who profitted from that trial they basically earned blood money. While he shouldn't burn in hell, his two decades of no career success seems justice to me.
Bio-Dome was one of the only movies I've wanted to watch multiple times. I never knew it wasn't popular. I thought everyone liked it when it came out. It was hilarious to me. I think that movie ended the career of Teresa Hill too. You didn't see her in anything after that movie.
For those of us who have chunks of "The Future of America" remembered word-for-word (and who may or may not still have his cassette from 1991), Pauly Shore is a treasure. It doesn't matter how many cinematic turds he makes. I'd actually love to see him tackle a dramatic role. You never know. He could be great, or bomb in multiple genres. I'd still love him. Has he been on Masked Singer yet?
So hard to sit back and enjoy when I have to constantly skip an ad😭
Didn’t he take over “The Comedy Store” on Sunset Blvd.,? As I think his parents own that. (Sorry typed before I watched the video). I saw him live in Pittsburgh back in the late 80’s early 90’s. When he squirted water on all the girls shirts in the audience. It always amazes me how many hot girls he could get to go backstage with him back then, but that was the times then, he was super popular. Yeah, times have sure changed from that scene. But he was loveeable nonetheless! Last I heard he was running things there and gave up movies thank Goodness 😆
As a “fan” I’m surprised you didn’t have anything good to say about Bio Dome. That’s my favorite go-to movie for seeing Pauly Shore. I miss seeing this guy around. Definitely classic 90s.
"Pauly Shore bypasses all categories to achieve a kind of transcendent fingernails-on-the-blackboard effect. His appeal must be limited to people whose self-esteem and social skills are so damaged that they find humor, or at least relief, in at last encountering a movie character less successful than themselves."- Roger Ebert
Fitting that Ebert got cancer of the mouth and lost his ability to speak.
I've never paid to see any of his movies, not being a fan of simpering, sophomoric humor combined with horrible "acting." Roger Ebert's reviews saved me. :) (RIP Roger)
Wow, I didn't realise I was so screwed up. Thanks to Roger I can see clearly now.
@@richardbonfiglio1765 :)
Like many professional critics, Roger Ebert is often judgemental, and acts like his subjective opinions are objective facts. Very arrogant.
I prefer to only listen to reviewers who ENJOYED what they are reviewing.
Pauly Shore stayed at a hotel in Florida that my mom works at a few years ago. She said he was so chill and had everybody cracking up when he went around asking where all the groupies were.
Pauly shore was a big deal for me as a kid of the 80's and 90's. He'll always be a funny man to me!
Bio-dome was one of my all time favorites when I was younger!!!
As much talk as there is recently about Nepotism Babies i gotta say Pauly Shore has never been in that category for me. Dude always came off as a genius product of his environment. Mitzy didn't just shove him in front of a camera she had fucking Sam Kinison take him under his wing. I'd honestly be shocked if we was exposed to that many legends of comedy and didn't come out funny. It sucks he had so many bad deals in the 90's especially with Disney dude was/is funny
Great video, thanks buuuddy
I have never, in my 40 years on earth, found a single person who likes Biodome 🤣 Do enjoy California Man though (as it was called outside the US)
I love Biodome, best Pauly Shore movie. Always loved the pop-punk/skater soundtrack. Now you know someone who likes Biodome
With today’s political climate, I think Son In Law needs to be revisited if not remade.
Richard jaeckel was in come back little Sheba 1952 with burt Lancaster Philip ober ned glass directed by Daniel Mann screenplay by ketti frings
@@nicolamcguinness8689 Dude, can you stop commenting irrelevant facts on every comment thread?
@@Thejordanenthusiast It would be nice if she at least punctuated her incoherent ramblings as well.
I am probably one of the very few people who like him. He had a lot of potential as an actor but was making a lot of bad choices for films. It's too bad, he could have done some serious work and veered off into a much better direction. Still, I like him and I wish he wasn't so down on himself these days.
As a dumb 90s kid I loved Biodome and Son in Law was a masterpiece
Wow as a young guy, I’ve only seen Pauly as a weird old guy on podcasts… but recently on his appearances on kill tony, he’s been a lot more attentive and funny so I looked into him and I’m glad I did I had NO clue how successful and talented he actually is! It sucks he had a hard time selling movies when he needed them too the most
Pauly Shore is Hella cool I love his Sense of Humor 💯😂😂😂
You missed, Phantom of the mall Eric's revenge. Pauly was a fucking hero in that!
I LOVE Pauly Shore! You guys need to do better research, he’s done several films since the 90’s. Idk why you say those things in the beginning of the video. The Pauly Shore is Dead film is ahead of its time.
Brilliant breakdown of Pauly Shore's early career. He's still young and can still do more legendary things!
"WTF Happened to PAULY SHORE?" The world realised how little he had to offer and ignored him. He was only "famous" because his mother passed every big comedian since like the late 60's early 70's. His "fame" was unsustainable, listen to him talk about his past on Joe Rogan, he even says they were the happiest times of his life. Hes a washed up dude in his 50's who still dresses like a teenage girl from the early 2000s.
He had what, ten years at (or near) the top? That’s ten more than pretty much anyone else. Your post reeks of jealousy.
@@freakazoid4691 it’s not jealously at all it’s the love of watching someone realise that they’re a fad. :P
@@freakazoid4691 plus I’ve never gone on the record complaining how happy I was back in the day. Can’t be jealous of someone who got almost eveything and then lost it all cuz he’s shit haha
Pauly Shore is an American treasure.
I loved Bio Dome when it came out. Encino Man was a great start for Shore and Frashier. Shawn Ashton was the biggest name due to Goonies.
Thanks ,well done intro to those of us 90s babes ,but he is respectable in my opinion. Carved out his own brand. Ty
"i'LL BE BACKKKK! (GIGGLES) LOVE THE ENDING OF THE CREDITS LMFAO
Who could forget Pauly??!, Your one of a kind. Just being honest here if I may, laughter is the best medicine. Appreciate you. Just trying to spread experience, strength, and hope! Take care bud-dy. Your friend, (not an ac-tress) being real. Love you❤
I was obsessed with Pauly Shore movies, I remember going to the movies to see In The Army Now the day it came out.
My sister, a friend and myself watched Encino Man three times in a row when we rented it.
Shoe fly, don't bother me!
