@@RuralTownerthat song was my first time hearing it as well thanks to this movie as well. First saw this film and heard the song back 2002; been a huge Johnny 5 fan ever since; so much so that I made 5 my lucky number for the past 21 years.
Absolutely classic scene! Stuck in my head since the 80’s and yes….everytime I say downtown…I sing that part and my best friend finishes it just like this gem of a scene! …..weird huh?…….
I worked as a mobile DJ for a couple of decades, and when I built my music collection, I would always tell customers, that I had, "Everything from Abba to ZZ Top", as a nod to this scene, which has remained one of my favourites, throughout the years ...
I have not heard 'Do Wah Diddy Diddy' the same way since watching this scene for the 1st time... will always think of Chinese food as much as I do the 1960s and romance with that song.

I thought Benjamin (and likely with Newton) is trained to do Morris Code. But couldn't he use binary code with the calculator to contact through the police phone or into their computer (if it has a modem).
@@okamijubeiMorse doesn't use binary. It uses short and long tones that, while commonly referred to as "dots" and "dashes" is actually called "dits" and "dahs" by those who practice it. His calculator is just playing different tones. It is 100% capable of doing Morse the exact same way he did the musical tones. Just instead of different tones he'd use long and short versions of the same tone. Morse code isn't something you learn as part of electronics or robotics. It's more of a niche thing more common among amateur radio operators than anyone else today outside of the military. And even there the military doesn't use Morse code much anymore. Anyway Ben could've just done dit-dit-dit dah-dah-dah dit-dit-dit (dot dot dot, dash dash dash, dot dot dot.) This extremely easy to remember sequence is Morse for SOS. Had he punched that in repeatedly the cops probably would've eventually understood it was a call for help and tracked the address down. I've thought about that all the way back to when I was a kid first watching this movie in the 80s. But then we would've have gotten the sequence of them tracking down their location via music.
This was a *brilliant* sequence, I cannot understand how people don't like this movie.
Timeless classic

"Holding Out For A Hero" will always be associated w/ Johnny 5's race down the quay for me since that was the 1st time I heard that song as kid.

Never read anyone who doesn't like this movie

Damn we don’t get movies like this no more 😔

I'm glad that this wasn't just a figment of my imagination from my childhood 😅
Right
The fortune cookies at the end is still funny.

@7:12 I still like this one "Opportunity is waiting, you need but to open the door" 😂😂😂😂
I love how into it the cabbie is 😂
You always can count on fortune cookies to mock your misery.
This scene is so much underrated. 😀
Finally. I've had the melody at 05:20 stuck in my head and didn't know how to search for it. At least now I have some words to help with that.
What is the name of the song? I couldn't understand what he was saying because of his accent

But you're smart, I thought you'd know Morse!

Interesting what they said about not carrying a telephone with them.
Lol. No one in the 80s and 90s carried a telephone on them.
0:30 gets me everytime.
"No sir pleee..." Lol
Arm yourself 😂😂😂 Classic

How did Ben not know what a loan shark was?
Likely they use a different slang for loan shark in his home country.
Yes. Ben wasn’t playing dumb then?
@@okamijubei I think they call loan sharks
_”Sahukars”_ in India?
@@princessmarlena1359 didn't sound so far off from an English language. (I'm aware about English in India).
