Schwarzenegger's first comedy role occurred two years prior to the release of Kindergarten Cop. I remembered many were skeptical Schwarzenegger playing a comedy movie from all the serious roles played but the movie 'Twins' (1988) was very well accepted at the box office receiving over $200 million dollars at the box office, opening more comedy roles for Schwarzenegger - Kindergarten Cop being one of them.
I was gonna suggest this movie but you beat me to it. As a tradition, we watch Christmas movies every Christmas. Our family watch Home Alone 1 & 2. Then if we have time, Jingle All The Way maybe every 2 or 3 Christmas period.
Since you liked "Kindergarten Cop," you must check out "Twins." Ivan Reitman produced and directed both films so you'll see and hear a similar storytelling style.
Actually; Arnold’s 1st comedy was “The Villian” from back in 1979. Sort of a live action Road Runner & Coyote film. Kirk Douglas & Ann Margret starred w/ him.
If your looking for another action comedy with Arnold, definitely watch “True Lies”! It also stars Jamie Lee Curtis. It’s action packed, but funny too.
After this movie, every time my mom or I had a headache, the other would ask if it was a tumor, and the one of us with the headache would respind in our best Schwarzenegger impression, "It's not a tumor!" 😂😅
Amber I beleive you were referring to Munchausen syndrome by proxy. It was what the mother had in the 6th sense, where she poisoned her daughter trying to keep her sick. This movie really shows Arnolds comedy chops. Twins, The Last Action Hero, Jingle All the Way. Are 3 other comedies of his. As always thanks for the Smiles
The mother in the sixth sense was the girls step mother and was just straight trying to murder the girls. Not Munchausen in that case. However, the true case of Dee Dee Blanchard and her daughter gypsy rose, is a very specific case of such syndrome. They made a limited Hulu series about it called “the act”. Dee Dee convinced doctor after doctor to perform surgeries and prescribe medication to keep Gypsy Rose sick. The daughter figured it out to a degree, and murdered her own mother with her boyfriend she met online. She was convicted to a 10 year sentence, the boyfriend was sentenced to life in prison.
I always thought the mother was actually trying to kill the daughter because she was a step mom and didn't want her. Albeit I haven't seen the movie in 20 years. But as I remember hearing about Munchausen's later on and it's even more sinister.
Yeah 6th sense was different because she was a stepmom who wanted the kid dead because she was a burden. A similar type of mom would be the one in the IT remake where she was giving him placebo pills and lying to him.
Yeah Sixth Sense was just a psycho killer, also Munchausen's I think is just paranoia...I think she was just talking about Parental-Abuse and Slave-Ownership...weakening or hurting your Offspring to keep them depended on you...I could be wrong
33:44 It's funny you mentioned Edna from Incredibles because Linda Hunt is actually speculated to have been one of the inspirations for Edna. 😂 Fun fact: She's the first person ever to have received an Oscar for playing a role of the opposite sex (The Year Of Living Dangerously, 1982, Best Supportive Actress for the role of Billy Kwan). Personally I particularly love her in the role of the mysterious leader Henrietta "Heddy" Lange in NCIS: Los Angeles.
OK. I stopped the movie at 8:45 when I heard the greatest reaction line in history. "At three months they still look like potatoes." Amber, you are the winner of all reactions!!!
True Lies is such a fun adventurous movie with Arnold and Jamie Lee Curtis. I highly recommend it! I watch it every time it is on TV ... I can't help myself lol!
"Mr. Holland's Opus" (1995) is a career look at a high school music teacher with a dream. Richard Dreyfus was nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe as Best Actor in this heartwarming drama. With two teachers in the Rob Squad, at least one of you will like it. (Richard Dreyfus, the marine biologist in "Jaws")
This is Arnold's favorite film of his. He genuinely loved the kids he worked with. There are also a few nods to Ivan Reitman's classic Ghostbusters films, including the Real Ghostbusters bedsheets on Dominic's bed
The look on Jay's s face when the little boy said boys have a P & girls have a V was priceless 😂 Amber still mad about that chicken nugget to the back of the head 🤗
My boyfriend and I each have a favorite (different) line from this movie. His fav line is, "It's not a too-mah!!" Mine is when the guy asks who he is, Arnold says, "I'm the party poopah." We use these lines in daily life when possible. LOL
Love Astoria where this was filmed. Attended 9th and 10th there in 69-71. Even stayed in the roadside inn where Arnold’s partner is sick. Short Circuit and The Goonies were also filmed there.
"Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina!" Fun Fact: Of all his movies Arnold Schwarzenegger has stated this is his favorite role, as it was a departure from his typical action heroes and he also loved working with the children. Also, Arnold Schwarzenegger had a few conditions before accepting the role of Kimble; he wanted Ivan Reitman to direct the film, he wanted a physical fitness theme, he and Ivan Reitman wanted broken homes, child abuse and family life written into the script.
A couple years ago, during the pandemic, all the people who played the kids got together on Skype to talk about their experience on set as well as what they are doing now. Half way through Arnie surprised them all by joining in on the chat. It was broadcast over TH-cam. He was great with all of them, telling stories on the set. And wanted to speak to everyone to hear how they are doing.
This movie was shot in the same town as The Goonies. I was living in a town a little south of Astoria when they filmed this. Arnold spoke at my sister's graduation. The scene of the three-legged race is the same place as where the Goonies find the old restaurant.
*I remember being at the movie theater and a preview of this movie came on. But the trailer started as another Terminator type movie by showing clips of him at the beginning with the sunglasses, etc.. EVERYONE in the theater sighed, ppl were saying "Not another one" and you could almost hear eyes rolling. Then they showed him as the teacher, clips of the kids, and everyone started laughing, perked up, and the whole vibe went from "not again" to "we HAVE to see that movie when it comes out. It's the 1st time seeing him in that kind of role. Such a great movie!*
Yes. That preview trailer was great. It really got us hyped for T2 which we knew was coming but, when it turned out something different that was just awesome.
So a few years back there's was 20th anniversary reunion livestream with several of the kids. It's fun to watch. And about halfway through, to the surprise of all the "kids" Arnold showed up and joined the livestream. It was really really wholesome seeing them catch up, and just how invested Arnold was in hearing who they grew up to be. It's available on TH-cam.
This movie is definitely going to put a smile on your faces😊I had a ferret as a teenager her name was Misty, she used a litter box loved pushing things around with her nose , balls,ice cubes.
5:55 - The 'street tough' guy here who said, "He's lucky I didn't kick his ^#$%", is actor Jacques Apollo Bolton. He played the famous bully, "Omar", who was supposed to have drove the Fresh Prince out of Philly, and the reason why he went to Bel-Aire. It is season 4, episode 26 (1994) titled, "The Philadelphia Story". If you've ever seen the show, during the opening credits when the thug lifts Will above his head and start spinning him around, that's the guy Jacques Apollo Bolton is supposed to be playing in the episode. Just some entertainment trivia for you guys. :)
The principal was played by the brilliant actress Linda Hunt. She won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for The Year of Living Dangerously, becoming the first person to win an Oscar playing someone of the opposite sex. It's a very good movie, but I think you'll have more fun watching the western "Silverado," in which she is part of a large ensemble that features Danny Glover, Kevin Costner, Jeff Goldblum, and many others.
They will get a kick out of all the wild things the kids say......and my favorite moment when the principal asks him about how it felt to hit the guy. (So funny!)
Fun fact: the tall guy who said " he is lucky I didn't kick his ass" is the guy who was the bully in fresh prince of Bel-Air. ( the dude who be spinning Will Smith in the opening credits).. there is a whole episode about it when Will goes back to Philly
Just wanna bring up two things (aside from that i loved this reaction) 1) While i'm sure Phoebe loves food like you said, if you remember, she tell Kimball before they leave for Oregon she's hypoglycemic and has to regularly eat. 2) When we meet Henry she is actually eating pasta a olio which is pasta with just olivie oil amd it COULDA been al dente. As someone who's maternal side of her family is mainly Italian, we take our pasta very seriously 🤣🤣🤣
For about 9 months I lived in Astoria, Oregon where this was filmed. I lived in an old home that sailors used to live in at the beginning of the 20th century which was turned into separate apartments. I could wake up every morning and see the Pacific Ocean to my left at the state of Washington right in front of me. The city was quite charming. The only drawback was EVERYTHING closed at 9 pm except for one restaurant and the movie theatre.
Ah, Astoria.. always have wanted to go there.. its like part of my childhood.. not just thus movie, but Goonies and Short Circuit.. staples of my childhood i watched so many times!! Always seemed the beach there had an air of mystery and adventure. (Did I say I watched Goonies a lot?) Ive spent time in Oregon, a lot of family there, and mom lived for s tone near Newport/walport (sp), drove past Astoria but never got a chance stop and explore the beach and look for pirate treasure 😢
@@michellelamar8965 well Cannon Beach is the beach from Goonies! Astoria really didn’t have a beach. The resort I was the HR for was right on the beach in Seaside though 🙂
Munchausen Syndrome by proxy. Arnold is in other great movies. "Twins" is funny, "Total Recall" is campy scifi adventure, and "True Lies" is probably the best overall Arnold film.
Some other movies that I think you will both love: *Stand and Deliver *Mr Holland's Opus *The Freedom Writers *To Sir with Love (a classic from the 60's starring the late Sidney Poiter)
“I’m not a policeman, I’m a princess”. Oh my god I used to say this after getting wasted and arguing with my friends about going home or slowing down… after they’d get mad enough I’d say “allllrriiiiight” they hated me for it. Good times
As a Kindergarten teacher married into a law enforcement family, I can say they all swear my job is more exhausting! Kindergarten is cray cray! This movie is so good.
This is only Arnold's 2nd comedy role and he just gets better every movie. Highly recomend Twins and Junior which Danny DeVito is in too both very funny with great casts. Fab reaction guys 🤩Keep em coming 🥳
Arnold started acting in the early 70s while he was still in the bodybuilding scene. His first films were low budget comedies like "Hercules in New York" and "Scavenger Hunt". I don't think anyone thought he would amount to much until he knocked everyone's socks off in the film "Conan the Barbarian". His best film in my opinion. From then on the money train was rolling and it seemed like it would never end. This musclehead cranked out tons of successful films for half a century. He has a lot of talent. The 6 time Mr. Olympia even succeeded in politics. Most accomplished human I've ever seen. Legend.
I just wanted to say I love you both, you're one of the most positive and heartfelt reaction channels I've found on TH-cam! I'm currently going through your backlog and my heart melted watching _Coming To America_ when Amber asked if Jay was singing like Akeem after the first time you spoke to each other! Or the way I sobbed with Amber watching _The Green Mile_ . Now I love seeing you both so concerned and caring for the kids in this one! I'll be giving you the thumbs up every time, I reckon! Keep doing what you're doing! It's wonderful to tune in and feel the love with both of you while remembering the older classics I grew up with!
I knew that you would like this movie because you're right it's right up your alley. You can't help but admire Arnold Schwarzenegger and how often he has reinvented himself. Years ago I was hired to teach computer science to all the grades of an elementary school. Kindergarten was not generally included but one day they asked me to go there and speak to the children. The teacher came out And she looked like she had been mugged. I can't remember the details but it was a riot the question the kids asked me. Thank you for another wonderful reaction to one of my favorite movies.
I love Linda Hunt in anything she's in. She is the actress who played the school's principal in this movie. She is an Oscar-winning actress who has had a simply amazing range of roles. She actually won her Oscar (for Best Supporting Actress) for her performance as a a male character (war photographer Billy Kwan) in the Mel Gibson/Sigourney Weaver film "The Year of Living Dangerously". I cannot recommend one of her other films, "Silverado" (a western which also stars Kevin Kline, Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, Scott Glenn. and Jeff Goldblum) highly enough. You guys would love that movie. She's only 4 feet 9 inches tall because she has a condition called hypopituitary dwarfism (a failure of the pituitary gland during childhood development) which means unlike a lot of Little People, her body is correctly proportioned.
The little boy that has the gynecologist dad plays in Pet Sematary. You should check it out this spooky season. Also, if you pay attention to the kids when the school is really on fire, all the students are running around like crazy and only Mr Kimball’s class stays in line like they are supposed to. They are the only organized class. 🧡
If you want more Arnie in this kinda role then you have to watch Twins and Junior with Danny De Vito and Last Action Hero. He’s such a good comedy actor and a joy to watch in these films
I'm an ex pre k teacher so this movie is so relatable. I had my kids work on the fire drill too, we had it down to a science! I so wanted to work early elementary (I'm disabled so I can't teach now) and I always thought jr high and high school would be so much harder!
Such a cute movie! Love it! Fun fact: The little boy Dominic is actually played by twins, Christian and Joseph Cousins. :) The condition is called Munchausen by Proxy. It's mentioned in the movie The Sixth Sense (which I've seen way too many times), and that's how I know about it. X) Some other great Arnie movies are True Lies, Twins, Total Recall, and all the Conan the Barbarian movies. :D
Good one, J&A! Astoria is also the town where they filmed Goonies. I read that when they were filming this movie Arnold made a sursprise appearance at the middle school graduation ceremony to talk to the kids. They loved him! 😄
I'm so glad reaction channels are finally reacting to this lately! I'm awaiting for a reaction channel to react to the 80's movie Mannequin starring Kim Cattrall. That movie will have its day with reaction channels soon I pray!
Manchausen Syndrome by Proxy “It’s a mental health condition in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under their care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability. Because vulnerable people are the victims, MSBP is a form of child abuse or elder abuse.”
I've loved this movie since I saw it at the age of about 7. It's the perfect blend of family comedy and serious crime drama. Arnold has a knack for comedy as well as a lot of charisma, and the kids are all fantastic and genuine.
Great reaction. I 100% always thought they modelled Edna Mode after Linda Hunt as well but apparently it's just a very wild coincidence. Astoria is the same town The Goonies was filmed in, and even filmed at the same location- Echola State Park, overlooking our famous Haystack rock and the beautiful Oregon coastline.
The term you were looking for is "Munchausen syndrome" ... Btw... My cousin Miko Hughes is the little boy that says "Boys have a penis.. Girls have a vagina" lol... Anyways.. if you ever want a creepy horror movie to watch... Miko stars in Stephen King's Pet Sematary (1989) he was only 22 months old in that... and he kills it lol. Don't know if you can handle that movie.. but if you think you can... he is AMAZING in that role!! I hope you have the guts to watch it.... I would LOVE that reaction!! lol P.S. I kind of heard you say it... but yes.. Miko was also in Full House... Many episodes! 😊
I love this movie, thanks so much for watching/reacting to it. I remember watching this movie for the first time, I was 7 and I remember thinking, 'that's the Terminator'. I love this movie because it shows off Arnold's comedy chops. Yes, it has a bit of action, drama, romance and comedy, I've seen Richard Tyson (Crisp) in a few movies and he's great at playing a jerk, where as Arnold is normally the hero. I've seen some of the kids in a few movies as well, mostly around this age, Cathy Moriarty (Syvlester's mom) is in a bunch of movies as well, another great actor. Pamela Reed (Phoebe) is pretty funny, love her in Junior as well. This movie has a great cast and a great story and it's one of my fav action/comedy movies of all time. Thanks again guys, love your videos, keep them coming, can't wait til Friday.
This film was made one town over from where I went to High School. A couple of the horses in the fair scene are my families. Arnold and his wife actually rented my families horses for beach rides. My Aunt's truck and trailer are in the film too lol.
I used to watch this movie all the time as a kid. My brother and I still quote it to each other. You should watch Twins for another fun, light-hearted Arnold role!
Arnold and Danny DeVito make a GREAT comedy team. They did two films together, Junior (Arnold plays a scientist who makes himself the world's first pregnant man to test a drug to help women and Danny is his partner and pediatrician). Twins is self explanatory, the boys being separated at birth and reunited 35 years later under hilarious circumstances. Both are fantastic but Twins is probably the better of the two.
Fun fact: Arnold was originally set to star as Vinnie Antonelli in My Blue Heaven, but dropped out when he was offerred this role. And I'm really glad he did. Kindergarten Cop is perfect, and My Blue Heaven would have been wildly different had he not dropped out. MBH is a *marvelously* fun movie starring Steve Martin as Vinnie, Rick Moranis, and Joan Cusack and is the unofficial sequel to Goodfellas (even though it was released first). You should *definitely* check it out.
19:28 - That's hilarious Amber! Because that reminds me of my wife's Grandfather (before he passed away) used to genuinely think I was Michael Jordan. And when we told him I wasn't, he got mad, because he didn't believe us, LOL. Needless to say he was going senile around that time. But he really thought I was him. :D
When I was a kid, I actually was with my Dad at the mail that they filmed the opening scene. Arnold was just looking over the mail with a large crowd surrounding him. When we saw the movie we both tripped out, because we were right there.
I’m 56 & I love to see reactions from young people. Oh when schools were just that. Not today’s Mickey Mouse crazy public schools teaching everything but reading, writing and arithmetic.
I had the blessing to work as a teacher's aid for Sure Start grade students for an American school in Germany. I know exactly what Mr. Kimble went through with these kids...it is an experience that lasts a lifetime! I loved the kids I was helping with. I'd do it all over again!!!
Back when I was a kid, I've seen lots of Arnold's movies being a badass action hero, so when I watched this movie, I was thinking, wow the guy really can act in a comedic dramatic performance that I've never seen before. And now rewatching it as an adult, he was really good in this movie and it's really rewatchable. And the kids were so cute acting around him haha. Still one of my fav Arnold movies. 👍
You guys should see The Men and a Baby.. Such a feel good movie.!!! Steve Guttenburg, Tom Selleck and Ted Dansen find themselves in a unique situation. A must-see!
My Dad grew up in Astoria in the 50's & 60's and went to the school this was filmed at. It's a beautiful town but gets boring fast. The weather reports are fun though, 100% chance of rain most days so they get really excited when there's going to be some sunshine. If you would like to see a darker fun movie involving school teachers I recommend "Class of 1999" a sci-fi thriller about cyborg teachers being utilized in one of the worst high schools.
I have lived in Astoria For many years June threw sept are very pretty and dry months. You are very much EXDRADITION It does rain a lot though, Thats why its so green and very Pretty. And Astoria is the oldest settlement west of the Rockies.
One of the best one liners from arnold's movies is "It's not a tumor". For over a decade and still from time to time till this day when anyone told me they had a headache I'd say "Maybe it's a tumor". I don't do it as often now cause people don't recognize it as much, but it was a really good way to relieve tension for decades because people remembered the movie and laughed, then did their "arnie" accent and replied "it's not ah tooma". Such a great movie, so many heart strings pulled, and relatable for almost everyone in some way, even young people who hadn't had to deal with kids yet, could relate to the school kids. Almost everyone wished they had a Mr. Kimble.
Predator 1987 Twins 1988 Total Recall 1990 Kindergarten Cop 1990 Terminator II 1991 Arnold had one of the great legendary 5 year runs in cinema history with this stretch where literally every film he made was an instant classic for the ages. Incredible. His resume and credentials put him in the all-timer club of movie Icon. Add to this that outside of this crazy great winning streak is the fact this list is bookended by the two actual best films of his career: The Terminator 1984 The Terminator II. 1991 And to think, being a movie star was his side-hussle. His primary original first career was bodybuilder. 7 time Mr. Universe. Auh-nold: crushing it, Mr. Puny-verses! 🤙❤️😊
I loved seeing you guys react to the movie ... it seems to be right up your alley. If you want to see another fun/funny Arnold movie True Lies is a pleasant ride. For another movie similar to Kindergarten Cop I'd have to suggest The Pacifier with Vin Diesel. Vin is just as much fun to watch out of his element as Arnold.
I forgot to mention another of my favorite Arnold movies! Commando. He is a tough guy but has a daughter (played by Alyssa Milano, of Charmed) so there's all sorts of humor along with fighting and explosions.
My husband and I love this movie! Another favorite Arnold film is True Lies with Jamie Lee Curtis and Tom Arnold. It's action but also really funny. I really love Linda Hunt as the principal in Kindergarten Cop. She is also great in Silverado which is a western with a great ensemble cast including Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, Brian Dennehy, and a very young Kevin Costner. Linda is also the only woman to ever win an Oscar for playing a man when she played "Billy Kwan" in the 1982 film "The Year of Living Dangerously".
My wife taught head start for 22 years, then went to a Montessori school for 5 years. She was lucky enough to be able to teach her grandchildren and her nieces and nephews.
Yay! I love this movie Jay and Amber; I am glad you enjoyed this too. I think you might like this other one for the holidays with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad is "Jingle All the Way" a family comedy film. He did another comedy with Danny DeVito called "Twins" and then he also did a comedy/action film with Jamie Lee Curtis called "True Lies" They are both great and it also starring Tia Carrere she's a baddie in that movie. You'll get a kick out of all of them! Excellent reaction! ☮ and 💕
This movie is a lot of fun. Arnold is underrated as a comedic actor.
His dryness males him hilarious
Now they need to do Twins or Junior
True Lies, Total Recall as well as The Running Man are other Epic Arnold movies
He had great one liners in commando!!
Even though the movie wasn’t well-received, I thought his acting in Jingle All the Way was pretty damn good.
Schwarzenegger's first comedy role occurred two years prior to the release of Kindergarten Cop.

True Lies is actually my favorite Arnold movie. So funny
True Lies, for sure the best! Also, Twins. But, True Lies is da'bomb @@martinlopez758
True Lies is a hoot. A great blend of action and comedy. The chemistry between Arnie and Tom Aenold was great.
@@henryvandeventer2457 I believe it's Tom's best roll ever. He was great in True Lies
@@henryvandeventer2457 I was never a Tom Arnold fan, but he’s hilarious in True Lies.
After this movie, every time my mom or I had a headache, the other would ask if it was a tumor, and the one of us with the headache would respind in our best Schwarzenegger impression, "It's not a tumor!" 😂😅
Yup yup .we do it too.lololol
Still do it 🙌🏻🤣
Same!
Same in our family 😅
It's almost a law that you have to say it in your thickest Austrian accent. 😄

That wasn't Munchhausen in sixth sense. It was just a sociopathic murderer.
Yeah Sixth Sense was just a psycho killer, also Munchausen's I think is just paranoia...I think she was just talking about Parental-Abuse and Slave-Ownership...weakening or hurting your Offspring to keep them depended on you...I could be wrong
Real life teachers watching Kindergarten Cop?! Love it!😎💜🎥
They're teachers? That makes sense- they're such nice people! My Sister is a teacher too. I bet their kids love their classes. 😎
I am a teacher and I love this movie!!!
The principal is the voice of Edna in the Incredibles!
@@heidisprouse4290Are you sure about that?
@@Kal-El_138 Linda Hunt was not Edna...but Edna is SO like her!

And Shaddot Mapes in David Lynchs Dune
Played a strong role in ‘Silverado’ too…
The Grammy is for music, Linda Hunt won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress otherwise known as the Oscar.

I corrected it. (I mostly deal with music so... Mea culpa. 😅)
@@malcolmeunson5543 Awesome Western! Everyone is in that movie!
OK. I stopped the movie at 8:45 when I heard the greatest reaction line in history. "At three months they still look like potatoes." Amber, you are the winner of all reactions!!!
I LAUGHED HARDER AT AMBER'S COMMENT THAN I DID AT THE ENTIRE MOVIE!
I laughed when she said someone threw a chicken nugget at her lol
The town they filmed this movie Astoria is where they filmed The Goonies among plenty other movies.
A lot of people make fun of his accent but Arnold's a pretty decent actor.
True Lies is such a fun adventurous movie with Arnold and Jamie Lee Curtis. I highly recommend it! I watch it every time it is on TV ... I can't help myself lol!
"Mr. Holland's Opus" (1995) is a career look at a high school music teacher with a dream. Richard Dreyfus was nominated for an Oscar and a Golden Globe as Best Actor in this heartwarming drama. With two teachers in the Rob Squad, at least one of you will like it. (Richard Dreyfus, the marine biologist in "Jaws")
music and teaching so it would be a perfect film for them to react to
Excellent suggestion!!
Fabulous movie
Fantastic suggestion! Fantastic movie!
Absolutely fantastic movie!! I highly recommend it!
Great reaction! Twins and Junior are also excellent comedies with Schwartzenegger ❤
LOVE Junior, so underrated!
Too bad he didn't also play Frank's brother in It's Always Sunny.
Junior is my guilty pleasure and Emma is wonderful in it, so funny
This is Arnold's favorite film of his. He genuinely loved the kids he worked with. There are also a few nods to Ivan Reitman's classic Ghostbusters films, including the Real Ghostbusters bedsheets on Dominic's bed
The look on Jay's s face when the little boy said boys have a P & girls have a V was priceless 😂 Amber still mad about that chicken nugget to the back of the head 🤗
"Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina. " is a classic movie line.
It's also false you racist bigot boomer
My boyfriend and I each have a favorite (different) line from this movie. His fav line is, "It's not a too-mah!!" Mine is when the guy asks who he is, Arnold says, "I'm the party poopah." We use these lines in daily life when possible. LOL
Love Astoria where this was filmed. Attended 9th and 10th there in 69-71. Even stayed in the roadside inn where Arnold’s partner is sick. Short Circuit and The Goonies were also filmed there.
"Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina!"
Fun Fact: Of all his movies Arnold Schwarzenegger has stated this is his favorite role, as it was a departure from his typical action heroes and he also loved working with the children.
Also, Arnold Schwarzenegger had a few conditions before accepting the role of Kimble; he wanted Ivan Reitman to direct the film, he wanted a physical fitness theme, he and Ivan Reitman wanted broken homes, child abuse and family life written into the script.
A couple years ago, during the pandemic, all the people who played the kids got together on Skype to talk about their experience on set as well as what they are doing now. Half way through Arnie surprised them all by joining in on the chat. It was broadcast over TH-cam. He was great with all of them, telling stories on the set. And wanted to speak to everyone to hear how they are doing.
And in today’s upside down clown world we live in, that kid’s statement is in question.
@@MP-od1zz Yup. The kid is even smarter than the recent SCOTUS appointee.
Y'alls reaction to that particular child's remark was both priceless and typical of us all.
@@deanromanado5850 The reunion is posted on Yahoo Entertainment's You Tube page
This movie was shot in the same town as The Goonies. I was living in a town a little south of Astoria when they filmed this. Arnold spoke at my sister's graduation. The scene of the three-legged race is the same place as where the Goonies find the old restaurant.
*I remember being at the movie theater and a preview of this movie came on. But the trailer started as another Terminator type movie by showing clips of him at the beginning with the sunglasses, etc.. EVERYONE in the theater sighed, ppl were saying "Not another one" and you could almost hear eyes rolling. Then they showed him as the teacher, clips of the kids, and everyone started laughing, perked up, and the whole vibe went from "not again" to "we HAVE to see that movie when it comes out. It's the 1st time seeing him in that kind of role. Such a great movie!*
Yes. That preview trailer was great. It really got us hyped for T2 which we knew was coming but, when it turned out something different that was just awesome.
This was perfect timing for his movie career. Just when you thought you knew what an Arnold movie was he flipped the script.
That was a good tactic lol
@@lanitana100 🤣
So a few years back there's was 20th anniversary reunion livestream with several of the kids. It's fun to watch. And about halfway through, to the surprise of all the "kids" Arnold showed up and joined the livestream. It was really really wholesome seeing them catch up, and just how invested Arnold was in hearing who they grew up to be. It's available on TH-cam.
Thanks! I’ll look for it!
He was so sweet and *legit* excited to see the "kids" again. He invited them all to come over and hang out with him!

This movie is definitely going to put a smile on your faces😊I had a ferret as a teenager her name was Misty, she used a litter box loved pushing things around with her nose , balls,ice cubes.
5:55 - The 'street tough' guy here who said, "He's lucky I didn't kick his ^#$%", is actor Jacques Apollo Bolton. He played the famous bully, "Omar", who was supposed to have drove the Fresh Prince out of Philly, and the reason why he went to Bel-Aire. It is season 4, episode 26 (1994) titled, "The Philadelphia Story". If you've ever seen the show, during the opening credits when the thug lifts Will above his head and start spinning him around, that's the guy Jacques Apollo Bolton is supposed to be playing in the episode. Just some entertainment trivia for you guys. :)
The principal was played by the brilliant actress Linda Hunt. She won a Best Supporting Actress Oscar for The Year of Living Dangerously, becoming the first person to win an Oscar playing someone of the opposite sex. It's a very good movie, but I think you'll have more fun watching the western "Silverado," in which she is part of a large ensemble that features Danny Glover, Kevin Costner, Jeff Goldblum, and many others.
Oh yeah! I think y'all would have a GREAT time with the 1985 movie "Silverado"!
To me she will always be Hetty.
She's an absolute gem in NCIS LA as Hetty
Silverado for sure! The Good Stuff!
“Twins” with Danny Devito and “Jingle All the Way” with Sinbad. Both of these Arnold movies are hilarious!
They will get a kick out of all the wild things the kids say......and my favorite moment when the principal asks him about how it felt to hit the guy. (So funny!)
Another movie with yet another one of Arnie’s famous sayings 🤣
“It’s not a tumour…”
"Kindergarten is like the Ocean, you shouldn't turn your back on it".😂
Fun fact: the tall guy who said " he is lucky I didn't kick his ass" is the guy who was the bully in fresh prince of Bel-Air. ( the dude who be spinning Will Smith in the opening credits).. there is a whole episode about it when Will goes back to Philly
Love the line "It's not a tuma"!
Just wanna bring up two things (aside from that i loved this reaction) 1) While i'm sure Phoebe loves food like you said, if you remember, she tell Kimball before they leave for Oregon she's hypoglycemic and has to regularly eat. 2) When we meet Henry she is actually eating pasta a olio which is pasta with just olivie oil amd it COULDA been al dente. As someone who's maternal side of her family is mainly Italian, we take our pasta very seriously 🤣🤣🤣
For about 9 months I lived in Astoria, Oregon where this was filmed. I lived in an old home that sailors used to live in at the beginning of the 20th century which was turned into separate apartments. I could wake up every morning and see the Pacific Ocean to my left at the state of Washington right in front of me. The city was quite charming. The only drawback was EVERYTHING closed at 9 pm except for one restaurant and the movie theatre.
Ah, Astoria.. always have wanted to go there.. its like part of my childhood.. not just thus movie, but Goonies and Short Circuit.. staples of my childhood i watched so many times!! Always seemed the beach there had an air of mystery and adventure. (Did I say I watched Goonies a lot?) Ive spent time in Oregon, a lot of family there, and mom lived for s tone near Newport/walport (sp), drove past Astoria but never got a chance stop and explore the beach and look for pirate treasure 😢
Also named my cat Astoria because I thought it was a pretty name. Called her Storie. Most loving cat I ever had.. 17 years together
@@michellelamar8965 well Cannon Beach is the beach from Goonies! Astoria really didn’t have a beach. The resort I was the HR for was right on the beach in Seaside though 🙂
Munchausen Syndrome by proxy.
Arnold is in other great movies. "Twins" is funny, "Total Recall" is campy scifi adventure, and "True Lies" is probably the best overall Arnold film.
This movie just tugs at the heartstrings. I remember watching it in the theater with my dad during Christmas break.
Some other movies that I think you will both love:
*Stand and Deliver
*Mr Holland's Opus
*The Freedom Writers
*To Sir with Love (a classic from the 60's starring the late Sidney Poiter)
“I’m not a policeman, I’m a princess”. Oh my god I used to say this after getting wasted and arguing with my friends about going home or slowing down… after they’d get mad enough I’d say “allllrriiiiight” they hated me for it. Good times
As a Kindergarten teacher married into a law enforcement family, I can say they all swear my job is more exhausting! Kindergarten is cray cray! This movie is so good.
This is only Arnold's 2nd comedy role and he just gets better every movie. Highly recomend Twins and Junior which Danny DeVito is in too both very funny with great casts. Fab reaction guys 🤩Keep em coming 🥳
Arnold started acting in the early 70s while he was still in the bodybuilding scene. His first films were low budget comedies like "Hercules in New York" and "Scavenger Hunt". I don't think anyone thought he would amount to much until he knocked everyone's socks off in the film "Conan the Barbarian". His best film in my opinion. From then on the money train was rolling and it seemed like it would never end. This musclehead cranked out tons of successful films for half a century. He has a lot of talent. The 6 time Mr. Olympia even succeeded in politics. Most accomplished human I've ever seen. Legend.
Little Giants is a great movie with a great cast!!! Great beat the odds kids movie 😎😎
I just wanted to say I love you both, you're one of the most positive and heartfelt reaction channels I've found on TH-cam! I'm currently going through your backlog and my heart melted watching _Coming To America_ when Amber asked if Jay was singing like Akeem after the first time you spoke to each other! Or the way I sobbed with Amber watching _The Green Mile_ . Now I love seeing you both so concerned and caring for the kids in this one! I'll be giving you the thumbs up every time, I reckon! Keep doing what you're doing! It's wonderful to tune in and feel the love with both of you while remembering the older classics I grew up with!
I knew that you would like this movie because you're right it's right up your alley. You can't help but admire Arnold Schwarzenegger and how often he has reinvented himself. Years ago I was hired to teach computer science to all the grades of an elementary school. Kindergarten was not generally included but one day they asked me to go there and speak to the children. The teacher came out And she looked like she had been mugged. I can't remember the details but it was a riot the question the kids asked me. Thank you for another wonderful reaction to one of my favorite movies.
When you hear near the end Arnold say " I need a Vacation" he demanded on using that line in Terminator 2 at the end.
I love Linda Hunt in anything she's in. She is the actress who played the school's principal in this movie. She is an Oscar-winning actress who has had a simply amazing range of roles. She actually won her Oscar (for Best Supporting Actress) for her performance as a a male character (war photographer Billy Kwan) in the Mel Gibson/Sigourney Weaver film "The Year of Living Dangerously". I cannot recommend one of her other films, "Silverado" (a western which also stars Kevin Kline, Kevin Costner, Danny Glover, Scott Glenn. and Jeff Goldblum) highly enough. You guys would love that movie.
She's only 4 feet 9 inches tall because she has a condition called hypopituitary dwarfism (a failure of the pituitary gland during childhood development) which means unlike a lot of Little People, her body is correctly proportioned.
The little boy that has the gynecologist dad plays in Pet Sematary. You should check it out this spooky season. Also, if you pay attention to the kids when the school is really on fire, all the students are running around like crazy and only Mr Kimball’s class stays in line like they are supposed to. They are the only organized class. 🧡
If you want more Arnie in this kinda role then you have to watch Twins and Junior with Danny De Vito and Last Action Hero. He’s such a good comedy actor and a joy to watch in these films
13:32 - The "va-jai-jai" kindergartener, that is the same lil' kid to played cute lil' Gaige in the Stephen King movie, "Pet Semetary".
Fun fact. This movie was recorded in Astoria, Oregon, the same place as The Goonies. I'm sure you will recognize some of the coastline views.
I'm an ex pre k teacher so this movie is so relatable. I had my kids work on the fire drill too, we had it down to a science! I so wanted to work early elementary (I'm disabled so I can't teach now) and I always thought jr high and high school would be so much harder!
Such a cute movie! Love it! Fun fact: The little boy Dominic is actually played by twins, Christian and Joseph Cousins. :)
The condition is called Munchausen by Proxy. It's mentioned in the movie The Sixth Sense (which I've seen way too many times), and that's how I know about it. X)
Some other great Arnie movies are True Lies, Twins, Total Recall, and all the Conan the Barbarian movies. :D
“It’s not a tumaaaaa!” Will always be my go to quote from this film for me. Lol
Good one, J&A! Astoria is also the town where they filmed Goonies. I read that when they were filming this movie Arnold made a sursprise appearance at the middle school graduation ceremony to talk to the kids. They loved him! 😄
Fun fact.... The Kindergarten school in this movie is in the same town (Astoria) where The Goonies was filmed. 🎥🎬
I'm so glad reaction channels are finally reacting to this lately! I'm awaiting for a reaction channel to react to the 80's movie Mannequin starring Kim Cattrall. That movie will have its day with reaction channels soon I pray!
YES!!!
I love mannequin!
You must watch AJ and BJ, as well, lol
@@brianmcmaster5112 . AJ and . BJ?
8:35 "Three-month old picture ... They still look like potatoes." Best line!! They should have put that in the movie!
Manchausen Syndrome by Proxy
“It’s a mental health condition in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under their care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability. Because vulnerable people are the victims, MSBP is a form of child abuse or elder abuse.”
I've loved this movie since I saw it at the age of about 7. It's the perfect blend of family comedy and serious crime drama. Arnold has a knack for comedy as well as a lot of charisma, and the kids are all fantastic and genuine.
Great reaction. I 100% always thought they modelled Edna Mode after Linda Hunt as well but apparently it's just a very wild coincidence. Astoria is the same town The Goonies was filmed in, and even filmed at the same location- Echola State Park, overlooking our famous Haystack rock and the beautiful Oregon coastline.
Funny you said the principal reminded you of Edna from The Incredibles. Edna was actually played by Brad Bird, the director.
One of my favorite movies ! Thanks for reacting to this one!
Yes that Lil boy was on full house as Michelle Tanners friend and he also played on Pet Cemetery.
The term you were looking for is "Munchausen syndrome" ... Btw... My cousin Miko Hughes is the little boy that says "Boys have a penis.. Girls have a vagina" lol... Anyways.. if you ever want a creepy horror movie to watch... Miko stars in Stephen King's Pet Sematary (1989) he was only 22 months old in that... and he kills it lol. Don't know if you can handle that movie.. but if you think you can... he is AMAZING in that role!! I hope you have the guts to watch it.... I would LOVE that reaction!! lol P.S. I kind of heard you say it... but yes.. Miko was also in Full House... Many episodes! 😊
Two teachers reacting to this movie: Priceless
Munchausen syndrome by proxy is what you're talking about.
Love this movie. It was filmed in Astoria, Oregon just like the Goonies. I was born at the now defunct Naval base in Astoria.
I love this movie, thanks so much for watching/reacting to it. I remember watching this movie for the first time, I was 7 and I remember thinking, 'that's the Terminator'. I love this movie because it shows off Arnold's comedy chops. Yes, it has a bit of action, drama, romance and comedy, I've seen Richard Tyson (Crisp) in a few movies and he's great at playing a jerk, where as Arnold is normally the hero. I've seen some of the kids in a few movies as well, mostly around this age, Cathy Moriarty (Syvlester's mom) is in a bunch of movies as well, another great actor. Pamela Reed (Phoebe) is pretty funny, love her in Junior as well. This movie has a great cast and a great story and it's one of my fav action/comedy movies of all time. Thanks again guys, love your videos, keep them coming, can't wait til Friday.
True Lies!! You’ll love it! Action packed and Jamie Lee Curtis is freaking hysterical! (Directed by James Cameron- Titanic!)
This film was made one town over from where I went to High School. A couple of the horses in the fair scene are my families. Arnold and his wife actually rented my families horses for beach rides. My Aunt's truck and trailer are in the film too lol.
This was always my favourite of Arnolds movies. It was a great mix of his action hero/comedy/drama acting skills all in one.
I used to watch this movie all the time as a kid. My brother and I still quote it to each other. You should watch Twins for another fun, light-hearted Arnold role!
Linda Hunt is the principal. She is on the TV show NCIS Los Angeles. She is a great actress.
Arnold and Danny DeVito make a GREAT comedy team. They did two films together, Junior (Arnold plays a scientist who makes himself the world's first pregnant man to test a drug to help women and Danny is his partner and pediatrician). Twins is self explanatory, the boys being separated at birth and reunited 35 years later under hilarious circumstances. Both are fantastic but Twins is probably the better of the two.
Fun fact: Arnold was originally set to star as Vinnie Antonelli in My Blue Heaven, but dropped out when he was offerred this role. And I'm really glad he did. Kindergarten Cop is perfect, and My Blue Heaven would have been wildly different had he not dropped out. MBH is a *marvelously* fun movie starring Steve Martin as Vinnie, Rick Moranis, and Joan Cusack and is the unofficial sequel to Goodfellas (even though it was released first). You should *definitely* check it out.
It's not a tumor, it's Arnold Schwarzenegger. This is a great movie. You guys should watch Red Heat with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jim Belushi
19:28 - That's hilarious Amber! Because that reminds me of my wife's Grandfather (before he passed away) used to genuinely think I was Michael Jordan. And when we told him I wasn't, he got mad, because he didn't believe us, LOL. Needless to say he was going senile around that time. But he really thought I was him. :D
That Lady who plays the Principle IS the Lady from the Incredibles! 🥰
"Edna" from "The Incredibles" was played by the film's writer and director, Brad Bird.
When I was a kid, I actually was with my Dad at the mail that they filmed the opening scene. Arnold was just looking over the mail with a large crowd surrounding him. When we saw the movie we both tripped out, because we were right there.
So glad you guys liked this!!! Was one of my favorites when I was a kid. I know others have suggested this, but Twins is also a great Arnold movie!
I’m 56 & I love to see reactions from young people. Oh when schools were just that. Not today’s Mickey Mouse crazy public schools teaching everything but reading, writing and arithmetic.
I had the blessing to work as a teacher's aid for Sure Start grade students for an American school in Germany. I know exactly what Mr. Kimble went through with these kids...it is an experience that lasts a lifetime! I loved the kids I was helping with. I'd do it all over again!!!
Back when I was a kid, I've seen lots of Arnold's movies being a badass action hero, so when I watched this movie, I was thinking, wow the guy really can act in a comedic dramatic performance that I've never seen before. And now rewatching it as an adult, he was really good in this movie and it's really rewatchable. And the kids were so cute acting around him haha. Still one of my fav Arnold movies. 👍
True Lies was pretty good too. It bounced around to some funny moments to some pretty serious ones. You guys might like that one too.
Great movie! Great reaction! Guess what Jay? The principal was played by Linda Hunt. She was Edna in The Incredibles!
She was also the bartender in Silverado.😅
She was also the saloon keeper in Tombstone
I paused when he said that and started checking the comments looking to see if anyone mentioned!!! Ha!!!!
::sigh:: no, Linda Hunt did NOT voice Edna Mode; Brad Bird did: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edna_Mode
You guys should see The Men and a Baby.. Such a feel good movie.!!! Steve Guttenburg, Tom Selleck and Ted Dansen find themselves in a unique situation. A must-see!
("Three Men And A Baby".)
My Dad grew up in Astoria in the 50's & 60's and went to the school this was filmed at. It's a beautiful town but gets boring fast. The weather reports are fun though, 100% chance of rain most days so they get really excited when there's going to be some sunshine. If you would like to see a darker fun movie involving school teachers I recommend "Class of 1999" a sci-fi thriller about cyborg teachers being utilized in one of the worst high schools.
I have lived in Astoria For many years June threw sept are very pretty and dry months. You are very much EXDRADITION It does rain a lot though, Thats why its so green and very Pretty. And Astoria is the oldest settlement west of the Rockies.
One of the best one liners from arnold's movies is "It's not a tumor". For over a decade and still from time to time till this day when anyone told me they had a headache I'd say "Maybe it's a tumor". I don't do it as often now cause people don't recognize it as much, but it was a really good way to relieve tension for decades because people remembered the movie and laughed, then did their "arnie" accent and replied "it's not ah tooma".
Such a great movie, so many heart strings pulled, and relatable for almost everyone in some way, even young people who hadn't had to deal with kids yet, could relate to the school kids. Almost everyone wished they had a Mr. Kimble.
Predator 1987
Twins 1988
Total Recall 1990
Kindergarten Cop 1990
Terminator II 1991
Arnold had one of the great legendary 5 year runs in cinema history with this stretch where literally every film he made was an instant classic for the ages. Incredible. His resume and credentials put him in the all-timer club of movie Icon. Add to this that outside of this crazy great winning streak is the fact this list is bookended by the two actual best films of his career:
The Terminator 1984
The Terminator II. 1991
And to think, being a movie star was his side-hussle. His primary original first career was bodybuilder. 7 time Mr. Universe. Auh-nold: crushing it, Mr. Puny-verses! 🤙❤️😊
She is The voice of Edna Mode!!!!
Classic
"You're not so tough without your car". One of the many great lines in this movie.
I loved seeing you guys react to the movie ... it seems to be right up your alley. If you want to see another fun/funny Arnold movie True Lies is a pleasant ride. For another movie similar to Kindergarten Cop I'd have to suggest The Pacifier with Vin Diesel. Vin is just as much fun to watch out of his element as Arnold.
I forgot to mention another of my favorite Arnold movies! Commando. He is a tough guy but has a daughter (played by Alyssa Milano, of Charmed) so there's all sorts of humor along with fighting and explosions.
Fun fact, Arnold himself said this is his favourite movies that he's ever done! I'm glad you guys enjoyed it!
My husband and I love this movie! Another favorite Arnold film is True Lies with Jamie Lee Curtis and Tom Arnold. It's action but also really funny. I really love Linda Hunt as the principal in Kindergarten Cop. She is also great in Silverado which is a western with a great ensemble cast including Kevin Kline, Scott Glenn, Danny Glover, Brian Dennehy, and a very young Kevin Costner. Linda is also the only woman to ever win an Oscar for playing a man when she played "Billy Kwan" in the 1982 film "The Year of Living Dangerously".
Great reaction. Since you are educators yourselves, it was fun to watch you respond to this movie. Good job!
****Hurting Someone in order to look like a Hero: Is called "Munchausen by Proxy."
This was a movie I didn't know I needed to watch until I watched it
My wife taught head start for 22 years, then went to a Montessori school for 5 years. She was lucky enough to be able to teach her grandchildren and her nieces and nephews.
Yay! I love this movie Jay and Amber; I am glad you enjoyed this too. I think you might like this other one for the holidays with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sinbad is "Jingle All the Way" a family comedy film. He did another comedy with Danny DeVito called "Twins" and then he also did a comedy/action film with Jamie Lee Curtis called "True Lies" They are both great and it also starring Tia Carrere she's a baddie in that movie. You'll get a kick out of all of them! Excellent reaction! ☮ and 💕
