My brother works for CBSA and has ran into Akroyd when he was coming from the states to Canada. Says he’s a super chill guy, down to earth and drives a humble vehicle lol. My brother was stoked cause coneheads is one of his favourite movies lol.
he asked if they still speak french - Beldar said yeah but it's tough because there aren't many french people around and what's her face (the wife) said yes I speak often with my francophone friends.
Beldar then asks if they eat frogs legs. The agent replies yes, from time to time, and Beldar begins to tell him about a restaurant he knows.. asking him if he knows a restaurant named (I didn't get the name of the restaurant) before he is interrupted by his wife.
He’s from Ottawa Ontario. Apparently it’s not french but in Quebec it is. I live on the Quebec side just near Ottawa ontario. Which is Gatineau... it’s honestly so cool to me that he’s a brilliant actor from Canada. One of my favs for sure 😊
John Smith Probably referring to nuclear weapons, since those are our only real weapons that could theoretically damage shielded spacecraft built with advanced metals, etc.
Gorman is a federal agent who is acting outside of his duties because he's obsessed with catching the Coneheads and exposing them. The "do you have proof" was a slip, indicating his hidden agenda.
@@justin764 I'm guessing that am excuse to hide his real ambitions, if one were to tell someone they're a government agent nobody would talk to then and they wont achieve thier goals so In this case they're posing as jehovah witness because that's a common excuse to go inside people homes, if invited and because jovah witness are common and nobody would think otherwise, i get those alot ( not agents just jehovah witness) and he seems more interested in the cone heas alone, for obvious reasons so he out to expose them, but yes they cannot ask for proof, this is what I think I maybe wrong
The full cast of this movie cracks me up. Dan Akroyd Kevin Nealon Jason Alexander Michael Richards Phil Hartman Adam Sandler Michael McKean David Spade Chris Farley Tim Meadows Drew Carey Leonard Nimoy William Shatner Sinbad Jon Lovitz Tom Arnold
This film had, Dan Aykroyd, Jane Curtin, Chris Farley, David Spade, Phil Hartman, Adam Sandler, John Lovitz, Dave Thomas, Sinbad, Tom Arnold, Drew Carrey, Michael Richard's, Jason Alexander, Eddie Griffin, Garrett Morris, Ellen Degeneres, Tim Meadows, Kevin Nealson i mean my God talk about a star studded cast whole crews of comedy legends from Saturday night live in one movie and still missing some 👌
Dan Aykroyd (Beldar) was born in Hull, now Gatineau, him mommy is a french-speaker named Lorraine Gougeon and he know few french words like Le Grenier (in english, the attic)
14 Zerals later and she still wont let him forget that he didn't turn on the cloaking device before entering earth's atmosphere. "Some earth weapons..." "drop it!" Just like humans...
I think the idea is that they studied French to aid in their cover; it was always a joke in the original SNL sketch that they were "from France!", so this was sort of a payoff to that old line.
This movie gets a bad rap but there are some absolutely great gags. Right down to the fact that the Conehead family speak just as strangely in French as they do in English: "I enjoy speaking it with my Francophone friends!"
Empty Web 144000 is 12 times the root of itself to get 144000, as the 12 tribes of Israel. it is ment to be metaphorical, not literal. It is ment to symbolize all people not a select group :)
lmao I love the snacks. Like 2 whole bags of party size Lays chips, and 18 cans of Pepsi, not to mention that monster candy dish front and center lol. There's something else there too in front of the Pepsi, looks like meat or something 🤣
Fun fact. "The French representatives of UIP took great exception to the Coneheads disguising their extra-terrestrial origins by passing themselves off as being French, and insisted that all such mentions be removed from the dialogue. This demand was declined."
Dan Akyraoid : Buy this over priced , dangerously high in alcohol level vodka in a basic Halloween skull shaped bottle . Me : No Beldarr : Would you be interested to buy this alcoholic beverage inside a Cone shaped skul.... Me : SILENCE YOUR SELF AND ACCEPT MY EARTH CURRENCY OF HIGH VALUE !
David Spade should have thought about turning his Total Bastard Airlines sketch into a movie in the wake of other SNL-based films like It's Pat and Stuart Saves His Family and Blues Brothers 2000 failing at the box office.
Why is that Jehovah's Witness is so interrogative, people so determined to snitch others out if they're just minding their own business are really irritating
Dan Akroyd is a Canadian from Quebec, born and bred; I'm pretty sure Chris McKeon is a Canadian as well. Hence, I'd expect them both to be able to parlez vous at least a decent amount. I remember he was but one of a zillion Canadian actors and entertainers who appeared in Micheal Moore's "Canadian Bacon." He played a state trooper/highway patrol officer/whatever they call them in Canada who pulls over a truck driven by a couple of Americans that has anti-Canadian graffiti all over it. He starts questioning them about it-- in such a way as to suggest they're going to be arrested for it-- but ends up letting them go after they spray paint each slogan in French so as to be compliant with Canadian law requiring dual French/English signage.
I am learning French and I remembered this scene. I was able to pick up a little, but I wanted to see if the subtitles could help. “Speaking French” IS NOT HELPFULLLLL
It is not true that only 144 000 will be saved. The directors of this movie have apparently not read the Jehovah's Witnesses website or looked up what they believe.
Its not like Jehovahs witnesses got their facts right either so.. They believe that a select 144000 will be sent to heaven, but that is not true, 144000 is symbolic to the 12 tribes of Israel which each tribe containing 12,000. Meaning all can be saved and sent to heaven, not just a select few
@@KemytAsceta16 J Witnesses think humans don't have a spiritual body (which contradicts the Bible) therfore impossible to ascended to heaven because lack of a spiritual body...yet only the chosen 144 can? That's a contradiction, you can't claim that people lack spiritual bodies yet claim that only an elect few can spiritually go to the heavens with God 😂
my gf didn't like this movie. she thought it was lame, as i grew up with it i still love it. She has been with me for 20 years so i let it slide. She did like Wayne's World, should i try Ladies Man next?
Dan’s accent while speaking french is noticeable thirds of Québécois/French Canadian, Anglophone and his Conehead voice hahaha. It’s awesome.
Apparently he is actually from Ontario so might explain that.
@@edwardblake1008 Yes, is mother is/was French Canadian (probably from Quebec), so Québécois-French is is "mother tongue".

Ok... I missed it... what's the hidden joke here?
@@nizloc4118 The weapons that destroyed their spacecraft, stranding them there.
i'm pretty sure they just automatically know a language when they hear it.
It would explain why they show up to earth immediately speaking English
Also for those of you guys who don't know the lead guy in a suit is Michael McKean the guy who plays as Chuck, Jimmy's brother in Better Call Saul.
Also played in Spinal Tap
And the cop in ✈️ 🚂 and 🚗 😂
What a sick joke!
And Spinal tap
And what’s also funny is that Prymaat looks like she js wearing the aluminum that Chuck McGill wore
You can tell Dan Akroyd learned french in Quebec lol

I like how David Spade's character was surprised that his boss could speak French.
Back in the day french was the defunct language ala spanish in most classes (before covid)
@@FranciscoSilva-bv9qq how long ago?

This is the most underrated movie comedy ever made. This is one of the best comedies in history!
Everything that has ever happened is underrated
What was the point of "some Earth weapons are not so useless"
Was that because an Earth weapon shot them down?
John Smith Probably referring to nuclear weapons, since those are our only real weapons that could theoretically damage shielded spacecraft built with advanced metals, etc.
That and nukes I'd say they are talking about as well
That is probably why he says drop it
Emotions. She's talking about emotions.
Personal insult against beldars lack of?
It's awesome how they learned to speak French in case anyone ever called them on their "we're from France" cover story.
@Gainstrup thats insane. I originally wrote that and It was supposed to be taken as never tell a complacent lie.

So Saul Goodman's brother (forget the actor's name lol) was in Spinal Tap, Best in Show, _and_ the coneheads?? He is such a good actor
Michael McKeon is a legend since Laverne & Shirley......being in Breaking Bad was just 'another thing' for him by that point!
He was also in Star Trek Voyager: Episode about Fear.
Little Nicky, hello!
I like how Prymat gives them each a 6-pack of Diet Pepsi..
Even 1 can is too many
Joseph Womer that was actually Regular Pepsi !
To the Coneheads, a six pack is equal to one can.
