![JODIE COMER STAN watches Free Guy (starring Ryan Reynolds) for the first time! [ REACTION / REVIEW ]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Za0HwZbl2ms/mqdefault.jpg)
Fun fact about the Chris Evans cameo:
Ryan reynolds texted Chris asking if he wanted to do a cameo, and miraculously he just happened to be in the neighborhood, so he showed up, they bought him a coffee (the one hes drinking in the cameo) and the whole thing was done in 10 minutes.
From what I read, Ryan knew Chris was in the area already, filming something else. Though I do wonder if Chris just HAPPENED to be wearing that "Cpt. America-blue" shirt, or if they had one handy, lol. He does wear blue a lot from what I've seen, so I'm willing to believe he was wearing it already, lol.
Free Guy was originally a production of Twentieth Century Fox. But Disney bought Fox during production. Since Disney also owns both Marvel and Star Wars, that made it possible for them to use Captain America's shield, the lightsaber, and the music from Avengers and Star Wars.
After they got the OK to use Cap's shield, Ryan Reynolds personally called Chris Evans to make a cameo. Free Guy was filming in Boston at the same time Evans was filming his show Defending Jacob there, so they filmed the cameo when Evans had a day off.
"Free Guy" is another term gamers use for an extra life.
Fun fact: the version of Fantasy that happens during the bridge scene with Guy and Buddy and Guy finding the island is sung by Jodie Comer who played Millie in the movie.
The music when Dude got the glasses was the theme song to TV show called The Greatest American Hero. It was about a high school teacher who was out in the desert one night and aliens dropped off a super suit to him. In the course of walking back home, he lost the instruction book. So, even though he had incredible power, he had no idea how to actually use it and just sort of stumbled along.
The movie was done by 20th century Studios, which is owned by Disney, which owns all the Marvel and StarWars property. That is why they could put all that stuff in. Not sure what the Fortnite connection is, they might have just paid for that.
Marvel & Star Wars have been put into Fortnite, so it's likely that they have good relations for such things.
You thought you would have a good time but you had a "Great Time"
Everyone else: *Talking about Chris Evans cameo*
Me: *crying over Alex Trebeks post mortem cameo*
There's more cameos in this movie than most people realize. The guy Millie meets (and kills) in the alley is played by Hugh Jackman (Wolverine) and the bank robber that Guy first gets his sunglasses from is played by Dwayne Johnson (the Rock). If you listen closely to their voices, it becomes pretty obvious.
If you want more videogame movie references like this and Ready Player One, check out Wreck-It Ralph and Pixels. The sequel to Wreck-It Ralph even has a broader scope of meta-references to internet and other franchise IPs.
Another great Ryan Reynolds movie is ' The Adam Project'. It's a great Sifi action comedy.
And "6 Underground", a brilliant popcorn flick.
R.I.P.D. Rest In Peace Department
@SilentBob731 that one is my favorite of his.
TRON meets The Matrix meets Ready Player One meets They Live meets DEADPOOL.
Meets Viva La Dirt League's NPC Guy skits (what if NPCs became self-aware) in a GTA world.
GTA meets I fell asleep and kept dreaming.
Another "feel good" movie I always felt that was under rated is "Dave" with Sigourney Weaver. It's a light hearted political romance movie, which is appropriate with 2024 coming up.
Excellent recommendation. Fantastic movie. I’m sure Mary would love it.
Omg I LOVE Dave! Excellent call. 👌🥂
Absolute gem of a movie. Kevin Kline was wonderful in it.
DAVE is fantastic! Would love to see Mary react to that, she would definitely enjoy it!
Oh! That looks wonderful. It's the first time I've heard of it, but the trailer was a delight. I'll definitely watch it and hope she gets a chance too
10:06 I just thought, the thing about him respawning to grind. Is that real players eventually log off to eat, sleep, etc. But Guy can just keep going non stop.
Sort of true? But he always seems to wake up in the morning when he respawns. So, does he just stop existing for the rest of the day in the game and then respawn when he would normally wake up the next day? That was what I thought, but of course I can't be sure.
when you got all happy, when the girl finally realized and went after her "guy" made my day...
heartwarming reaction to a great wholesome movie
I love the chagrined/embarrassed/shocked faces Jodie Comer makes when Millie tells Keys that she kissed Guy 😂Also the face she makes as she watches Guy kiss her avatar 😆
Antwan: "Whoda thought that so many people would just wanna watch video game characters instead of shoot at them?"
Mary: "Have you never played The Sims?" 🤣🤣🤣
Looks like Mary needs to watch Magic Mike 😂
Was just going to say. 🤣
omg yes! Magic Mike 1 was actually a pretty solid movie!
Someone had to say it 😂
Seeing Cap was such a surprise. It got spoiled pretty quick Evans had a cameo. Glad you were surprised and enjoyed it. :)
I knew he had a cameo, but I didn’t know anything about the context. Loved it!
Yay! I never saw this. I was working in the financial district in Boston while it was being filmed. Can't wait to see some of the location shots.
Has anyone mentioned Pleasantville as a movie that is thematically adjacent to this film? I HIGHLY recommend that it be added to the playlist!
I'd second this. I loved that movie when I saw it.
It's quicker to grind levels when you literally never have to eat or sleep and immediately wake up when you're killed I guess :)
I worked for years in the Post Office Square area of Boston, where most of this was filmed. It is so cool to see all of my old offices
Whoo, caught this one within the first minute of it going up! Nice to see you again Mary, hope you and the baby are doing well!
Mary ... the only woman on earth that remembers channing tatum from 21 jump street ... well done girl you are too pure for us :D
The grand-daddy of "inside a video game" movies is "Tron" (1982), which kind of has a similar plot to this movie. It was one of the first films to use extensive computer imaging. You should definitely do a reaction to it!
And as someone else suggested "Wreck-It Ralph" is great film, as is the sequel, "Ralph Breaks the Internet". Both are animated and contain TONS of references to classic video games.
28:32 - The song that plays when Dude sees the world through the glasses, is called "Believe It Or Not" and is the theme song to an American TV show called "The Greatest American Hero". In the show, a meek shoolteacher has an encounter with a UFO and the aliens gift him a suit that gives him super powers. However, he immediately loses the instruction book, so he doesn't know half of what the suit can do, or even how to properly use it. The series then follows his adventures as he clumsily uses the suit to stop crimes while trying to still live a mostly normal life.
As others have said, another good movie about the video game world is Wreck it Ralph, although it is about an older generation of video games when they were in arcades.
Back when City of Heroes was a game. The NPC's had designated spawn points when the zone booted up, then they would wander randomly until the server shut down in the early morning for a 20-minute reboot. I worked graves then and was usually playing when the reboot window came up. One morning, one of the zones glitched and the NPCs all spawned, but didn't walk. It also loaded the visibility range setting from the "foggy" zone, so it was impossible to see more than a block or two. The zone music also failed to load. It turned the newbie zone from a living city full of baby superheroes into Silent Hill. You'd walk down an empty street until you came on a dozen NPCs stacked up at a light pole, just standing. That scene in here where the NPCs are just gone reminds me so much of that day.
Apparently Reynolds tried to be the most hyper-Canadian he could to capture the essence of Guy.
28:00 _"How were they allowed to add all this in? Star Wars-wise, music, Marvel...?"_
Well, the answer to that is pretty simple: This is one of the first films to be created by Disney after being produced by 21st Century Fox. Fox was bought out by Disney after the film had already gone through its first round of production. It's also why they were able to incorporate so many Marvel / Disney assets into the film.
Oh sweet! I just recently rewatched this and remembered how much I enjoyed it. Excited to see what you think!
*_FRIENDLY GESTURE!!_* 👋
Thanks for sharing your reaction with us; it was fun experiencing this movie again, through your eyes.
I love the moment at the end Millie figures Keys out and kind of gasps.
Mary, if you haven't seen Tron and the sequel - I highly recommend it. The original sadly has not held up to the test of time as far as graphics go but that just makes the sequel so much better imho.
The trailer for this came out before the pandemic but covid pushed the release back like 2 years. I almost forgot about it by then.
It's called free guy because back in the nes days, many people said free guy instead of 1up. It's a hold over from the arcade days when you earned a "free play" after an amount of points so you didn't have to pay an extra quarter. The younger gen usuasally said 1up cause that's what the mario and other games called it in the instruction booklets. Since no quarters, it was a "free guy" before the game over screen and you had to start all over. It's also called free guy cause he's an npc that breaks free of the code like a sentient a.i. It's trying to be a clever title using a pun.
22:49 Continuity problem here. She kissed him but they very clearly pointed out earlier that there's no button to do that.
There isn't a button for that, but that doesn't mean the animation and action isn't coded. There was just a forced server restart, so maybe the guy who is the lead programmer enabled that functionality while it was down. Or put differently, there WASN'T a button for that when he kissed her, but that doesn't mean there isn't one now. It would only be a confirmed continuity error if she kissed him before he kissed her. Anything after just requires a change in the game and the guy who likes her controls every aspect of the game.
Another painfully underrated movie with a game-like plot is Boss Level. The humour is a bit darker and more mature but you'll love it just as much. Thank me later.
this is a 20th century movie, which is owned by disney.
You know we're in trouble when the first AI takes the personification of -Deadpo- Ryan Reynolds.
Great reaction to one of my favourite movies in recent years. I see lots of other cool stuff on this channel as well so...Subscribed! 👍✌❤
What if we took the script for The Truman Show, and put it in a blender with the script for Tron and set it in GTA?
Btw, I love this movie.
Thank you for referencing all 3 of those IPs, especially Tron!!
Perfect description for the script! 👍😃
"Thirteenth Floor" - not video games but VR.
She didn't have a good time, she had a great time!
"The Nines," 2007 is another hidden gem with Ryan Reynolds. Good for game lovers as well.
not really a good idea but a boring movie. One of his worst.
Two other recent movies you would definitiely enjoy are PALM SPRINGS and PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN. Both are extremely quirky like this one and both have large romantic comedy elements too. But the first is a sci-fi/romcom (kinda like EDGE OF TOMORROW but heavy on the romance). And the second is hard to explain but maybe best described as a pschological thriller/romcom.
Im a nerwork engineer and i got called to a site where simeine had gone mental with an axe in rhe comms room.
All damage was cosmetic.
Youd do far more damage with a pair of sheers
@@P47CH3Z it looked a mess but functionally, not a thing wrong with the kit. It was a jobcentre and he was sat outside waiting for police. He had an axe to grind (HA!) With the government.
Free Guy 21 st Century Fox, which is Disney which is Marvel and Star Wars. So they can use whatever they want basically. Which is ominous when you say it out loud.
I would be blown away if Mary or someone else did a reaction to.. The Nines starting Ryan Renolds... it's one of those unheard of underrated ones.....
3:35 "She does have a nice accent".
You should hear her real accent! 😆😆 Or the many accents she does on Killing Eve.
It's such a wonderful movie, a total unexpected blast :)
This is one of those movies that didn't get a lot of hype, but everyone I've shown it to has said "Wow, how did I not know about this?!?". Such a great movie, and the cast just nails their roles so well. Also, in the "Deadpool reacts to trailers" they did, they have Deadpool and Keorg react to the trailer of this, with Taika voicing Keorg and commenting about his own acting in the trailer, as does Ryan Reynolds playing Deadpool. Funny skit.
@7:46-@7:50, @20:26, @26:58, lol hahahahahahaha!!!!!!
@12:37 Yup, that’s Taika Waititi. He’s also working on his own Star Wars film. In the meantime, he produces and stars in an HBO Max series called Our Flag Means Death. The second season will premiere soon.
@28:00 To answer your question, Mary, Disney bought Fox around the time they made this film. So they decided to go all out by embedding Marvel and Star Wars.
Chris Evans happened to be close to set when they were making the movie. So they called him to film a cameo. It only took a few minutes to film.
There are also some vocal cameos - most notably Hugh Jackman and Dwayne Johnson.
His star wars projects not going forward not that it would matter star wars is dead anyway.
This has been on TV every single day for that last 2 months haha
This movie is Reverse Deadpool (he's normal and the world around him is Deadpool), combined with The Matrix, Ready Player One, TRON/TRON Legacy, Stranger Than Fiction, Hackers, They Live, Kung Fury, 21/22 Jump Street, and The Fast & The Furious.
That's exactly what my reaction was too lol. I expected it to be good but it was sooo much better than i thought
Now, you MUST watch "Bullet Train"- and "Deadpool 2" because there's a connection of sorts, between the three films - but it has nothing to do with the stories.
🙂
I'm sure you noticed this but Antuan is played by the director of Jo Jo Rabbit.
Recommendation: "Stranger Than Fiction" film 2006. Stars Will Ferrell
Catchphrase! My favorite line evah!
Pixils is a good movie about video games in general. A couple of movie adaptations of video games which are worth watch are Mortal Kombat ( the first one of the old movies and new reboot are both good) , and Doom.
Love you mary!! Hope you family is doing amazing! Love the new react keep em up i look forward to watchin more movies with you
A good Channing Tatum film you'd enjoy is Logan Lucky. Adam Driver and Daniel Craig are in it too.
Lmao Yes!! This movie just hit ALL the right beats ❤ Also you didn't have a GOOD time, you had a GREAT time 😁🙌
They were allowed to put it all in because it's ALL owned by Disney. This is literally the only positive thing to come from Disney damn near owning everything.
There is a good action movie called boss level, It's not a video game based film, but have some video game type aspects to it that is rather entertaining.
Catchphrase!
Its always great to get a mama Mary's video notification and better when she is reacting to your favorite movies❤❤
Inspired retort: "Have you never played the Sims !?"
Have you watched Stranger Things yet?
If you haven't, you should bump that to the TOP of your list for September/October/November.
Yes, she probably should watch Stranger Things before Season 5 (final season) comes out
I feel you missed a chance in your breakdown: "I thought id have a good tume, i didn't know I'd have a GREAT time!"
One of my favorite Channing Tatum movies is The Vow
I am guessing you have a Medtronic pump. They are pretty annoying. Tandem is amazing, but if you are under warranty still you might talk to your doc about switching to an Omnipod G5 with Dexcom compatibility in the meantime.
Thank you, Mary! 🎮 #MoviesWithMary #ShawnLevy #FreeGuy
I don't really know of too many game movies you haven't seen other than maybe the second Jumanji movie in the new series, the 2 Tron movies (original and Legacy), the Assassin's Creed movie that didn't do well, a sci-fi movie based off the board game Battleship, and Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves (really good actually), and Warcraft (WoW movie).
I know it's not game-related, but I noticed you haven't watched any of the John Grisham novel movies which all have to do with law, and star some of the biggest actors/actress to grace the big screen. There's several really good trial/family law movies there to be seen: The Firm, The Client, Pelican Brief, A Time To Kill, The Rainmaker, The Chamber, Runaway Jury...
You'll like Ready Player One, but I think the movie Gamer is right up your alley and In it's own way Surrogates. They both, in my mind, are precursors to Free Guy.
love ur reactions. Ryan Reynolds is a wonderful comedian.
this movie seems to me to be Ready Player One meets TRON. with a little WestWorld at the end.
Fun moment of real world RR playing the game.
Another fun Ryan Reynolds movie is “Just Friends”
Another great 'game' movie is eXistenZ with Jude Law. Very different, very underrated.
I've got a different Ryan Reynolds film for you Mari. It's called "SelfLess".
Hi Mary How's it going with you and your baby👩🏽🍼 So happy I got to see your reaction to free guy I'm happy that you loved it so much it's my favorite Ryan Reynolds movie and enjoying the fantasy by Mariah Carey song love it and seen Captain America shield with Chris Evans and the lightsaber scene is my favorite part of the movie !!! You should watch this movie again multiple times.
One of my favourite Ryan Reynolds movies. ❤️
well now we want a lets play with mary :D
22:51 this part confused me cause i thought they said earlier there wasn’t a button to kiss in the game yet now she’s able to kiss him. 28:02 Free Guy is Disney so any properties that Disney owns is free game for them to put in the film.
you can not press a button to kiss as a player but NPCs dont have to press buttons. Guy kissed her
@@themiIes Guy kissed her the first time but after the reset and she blew up the cop car she grabbed Guy & kissed him to hopefully make him remember.
Welcome to the wonderful world of mods! If modders can add content to games, a determined AI like Guy could effectively create new functionality to kiss. Same goes for Millie after the reboot: a lot of the code was hers in the first place--she knows her way around.
Mary, beste films met Ryan Reynolds zijn Van Wilder en Just Friends, allebei TOP en hilarisch
A reaction I forgot I needed in my life!
seriously underrated movie
Because this is a Disney movie. Disney owns Marvel, Star Wars and many more.
Have you read "Ready Player One"? It's significantly better than the movie and an easy read.
Good work Mary 😊
Oh! Another I'm 90% sure you will like is "Bridge of Spies" with Tom Hanks. Based loosely on true story, not a comedy.
Johnny NUMBER5 is alive! AI will eventually rule us all. Down with SkyNet.
As good as Jodie Comer is in this, she's 500% better in _Killing Eve._ That girl (I can say that because I'm twice her age) can do no wrong.
You didn't have a good time, you had a great time. :)
Don't have a good time, have a great time. 😉
Actually I didn't like the Ready Player One movie, but I liked this one. :)
Je maakte me aan het lachen!
I think you should watch Stranger Things at some point
"How are they allowed to include...?"
Because Disney owns everything now.
Its a Disney film. Disney own Star Wars and Marvel soooo... its easy to get permission.
