Sylvester Stallone - DEMOLITION MAN: Reel Action
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ย. 2024
- It's time for another instalment of "Reel Action", where we revisit some of the biggest and best action classics from all the icons of the genre. Of course, one of the undisputed kings of the action genre will always be Sylvester Stallone, and this week we're taking a look at the great sci-fi/action/comedy mash-up Demolition Man!
In it, Stallone plays John Spartan, an unfairly cryogenically imprisoned cop thawed out in the year 2032 to catch his former arch-nemesis, Simon Phoenix, played by the iconic Wesley Snipes. Not only did this film pair Stallone and Snipes, but it was also a star-making performance by a young Sandra Bullock, who would nab a role in Speed based on her performance in this, which would rocket her to the top of the A-list. So join us as we take a closer look at this Stallone classic and try to answer the immortal question - "what's up with the three seashells?"

I love this movie so much, you could tell Stallone and Snipes had a blast making it.
Stallone likes Snipes so much that he waited for him to get out of prison so he could have him in Expendables 3.
Everyone seems to make fun of this movie these days. But this is one of my favorite Stallone movies as well as Snipes movies.
Simon Phoenix up there with Hans Gruber as a likeable villain.
Agreed.
It’s a great fun action film
It's really intelligently written
I dont know why its a fkng classic and turned out right. Look at America now especially California fkng WEAK,WOKE,PUSSIES.
Not gonna lie, this movie will never win any awards but it’s still a guilty pleasure to watch.
it was a good movie. solid action stallone 90s movie like cliffhanger!
It's so relevant today with the dystopia we are living in. This film was a prophecy.
@@alandavis3715 Cliffhanger had a more serious tone but like this it was an awesome action movie.
No no nope. "guilty pleasure" it is not. It's a great movie. Nothing to be ashamed of or embarrassed by in watching it. Save the discription of "guilty pleasure" for stuff like Twilight, MeteorMan and Fifty Shades of Grey. Y'know, stuff like those.
@@commentcopbadge6665 Meteorman, I loved that movie when I was a kid , still is fun to watch 😂😂
•Lenina Huxley: Let's go blow this guy.
•John Spartan: Away! Blow this guy *away* !
Whatever lmao 🤣
Love this movie! Wesley Snipes at his finest.
"What were you locked up for?"
"Tax evasion."
@@skyden24195lame troll attempt fail
@@BrandonHaymon you've obviously never seen the movie, "The Expendables 3."
@@skyden24195 what about it wesley snipes did great in that movie. So once again troll attempt fail again
@@BrandonHaymon I know he did, even though he was only in the movie for a brief period at the beginning. I'm a fan of Snipes. I don't think you've ever encountered a real troll. I am not trolling, I am giving praise to Snipes with a MEME-type pf gesture which showed that Snipes was invited by Stallone to participate in Stallone's "Expendable" series even after Snipes unfortunate incarceration, indicating that Stallone still respected and admired Snipes as an actor. I suggest that you don't accuse a troll-hunter of being a troll.
I seen this movie when I was in the Army and it's always been a guilty pleasure for me. It's cheesiness is what makes it enduring.
Ultra cheesy guilty pleasure movie. So many great scenes.
Its quite scary how legit it is now
I feel like watching this movie again.
PHOEEEENIIIIIIIIIIIIIIX!!!!!!!
Watched this on a Double with Escape from L.A recently. Both underrated sci fi action movies with very similar anti authoritarian themes.
We are living in the political correctness nonsense of San Angeles 2032!!!!!
@@silvervalleystudios2486 why those two movies are ahead of their time. Although L.A is more authoritarian right, while Demolition is authoritarian left.
Good call.
Escape from LA is awful. That terrible toy helicopter scene. Demolition man is actually descent though.
Wesley Snipes is so good in this movie!
Absolutely love this movie and watch it more than I like to admit. So much nostalgia and certainly one of the best action films of the 90's.
Such an epic action movie and predicted the PC LA perfectly
In Sweden, we always had the Taco Bell version for some reason.
I've never seen the Pizza Hut edition.
Same in the uk. I didn’t even know about this fact until I saw it in a TH-cam video about 5 years ago and now it is in every video about demolition man. I am glad I didn’t see a dubbed version but when I did see the film as a teen the Taco Bell joke fell flat for me as I had no idea what the brand was
I'm in America, and I've only seen the Taco Bell version. 🤷🏾♂️
Saw this in South Africa when it came out. It was Pizza Hut, but you could tell it was obviously dubbed whenever they said it. Only realised it was supposed to be Taco Bell after reading it in one of those trivia/goof lists downloaded from Usenet. There was no Pizza Hut or Taco Bell in SA back then (and I've never seen TB outside the US), but most people had at least heard of PH, not TB.
It was the same here in Australia. We had the Taco Bell version. UK and most of Europe got Pizza Hut.
Europe may have done but U.K. got Taco Bell
Sandra Bullock is a total babe in this movie
I liked this movie as a kid when it came out. Who knew that this forgettable 90s action flick would become a Cult Classic and, of all things, prophetic. Hollywood really knows how to predict the future.
illuminati like to show off so of course they know
OMG. I always loved this movie, because of its blend of action and goofiness. Yes, our present world really has become like that movie, hasn't it?
Demolition man - much like They Live - is not just a movie. It is a documentary from the future........... if we let it happen.
Yeah it's the future primitive right wingers FEAR, cause they do not understand reality.
THe only really good thing about it is the Ending "You need to become a bit dirtier and YOU need to become a lot cleaner". The Dennis Leary rant was idiotic, cause selfish refusal to respect others is NOT a sensible way to live a life. YOUR desire to do something "just because" does not beat out sensible health protection or being a BIT conscious about what hurts others and to NOT do it out of spite.
This movie is soo much fun and awesome
A timeless classic. Riveting, emo. DemoMan has got it all.
Who wants some Taco Bell?
UK version renamed it Pizza Hut as the British are not familiar with Taco Bell
@@silvervalleystudios2486 same for Australians, the VHS version still says Taco Bell, DVD and Blu-ray have Pizza hut
@@aussieeffinpete 🤣🤣
A real gem.
Edgar Friendly is my favorite character in Demolition Man. I can totally symphatize with his point-of-view, and I wouldn't say no to a ratburger after the "fine dining" in Taco Bell scene.
Favorite movie of the 90s!
Love this movie!! One of my favorite Stallone action movies from start to finish.
It’s a classic action movie so ahead of it’s time
One of my favourites!
Absolutely LOVE this movie!!!
Sandra Bullock 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you JoBlo Videos! 👍
You forgot other predictions! iPads, self driving cars, Siri, computer guided directions and of course, a overt lust for decades past. So much to unpack!!
The three sea shells. They got that wrong.
Thankfully...haha
@@silvervalleystudios2486 Give it time, the three seashells have only yet to be realized
This is one of my favorite movies, but it peaks in the middle.
Demolition Man and Idiocracy have become reality.
This has one of my top 5 Stallone moments. When the car's brakes don't work and he's about to crash and yells "Brake now, you Mickey Mouse piece of SSHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTT!!!!"
Great simple action movie. Love it
You don't know how to use the Three seashells?
Robs laugh after he said that makes that line even more classic to me lol
Women using seashells to clean their clam,sounds pretty painfu
Wonder if water retention is common place in the future,or no underwear to let the clam dry naturally.
I love this film 🎞
Love this movie
When I first saw this movie I thought it was so bad it was good... Now I know it's just good, no, great
Stallone was made for these comic strip roles. Chiselled face, huge muscles and a lopsided mouth for great oneliners.
The museum gunfight was the best scene.
“Bad aim blondie”
“Spartan, JOHN SPARTAN?!? Aw hell, they’ll let anyone into this century”
Action and funny lines for days, criminally underrated movie.
Yes JoBlo, you need to do Ford Fairlaine.
POSSIBLY
Top 5 all time for me. It just never gets old
JCVD could of been great as well. But i'm happy Snipes got the part. Thank god Seagal didn't get any part.
You're on TV! *thwack*
You should also have mentioned that Jack Black, unknown at the time, played an extra in the sewers! lol
"Demolition Man," possible the origins of the term "potty mouth."
-also, Sandra Bullock is absolutely adorable as Lenina Huxley. Funny too, is this would be the first time Sandra Bullock would be paired as a cop with fellow actor Benjamin Bratt. The pair would eventually play "cops" (FBI, actually,) in "Miss Congeniality." :-]
It's scary how it parallels the times right now. But yeah it's still great!
I love it. I like that it doesn't take itself seriously.
Let’s not forget Elliot Goldenthal’s superb music for the film. As a kid I used to wonder why the hell did they use the Batman soundtrack 🤪
Totally one of the best Stallone films!! I always enjoy watching it, I cried from laughing the first time I saw the scene where he curses at the machine to get paper. Because of the damn shells! LOL
a better Idiocracy than Idiocracy (the movie). underrated scifi action comedy
Yep, this is a 'fun' movie :-)
Yeah, Ford Fairlane! 👌🏼✌🏼
this movie is so good, the reality of this almost happened lol
They say this movie is unsuited for it's time, but that is because it was ahead of it. Look at the world right now, it's slowly becoming like the totally P.C. future from that movie. And if anyone disagrees with me and want to be robbed of their lives and personal freedom, I only got one thing left to say:
Simon Says *DIE!*
Completely agree with you.
Cracking film
It's funny how this is so similar to Judge Dredd.
The only similarity is that it has 2 of the actors.
@@voodoochile333
The plot has well.
@@anubusx I have no idea what is the similarity.
@@voodoochile333
Both characters are law enforcers who go by a different title.
The film is set in fictional futuristic city that came about after a natural disaster.
The killer/main villian escapes from a hi tech prison. But is sercretly given help.
He already as a past with the hero.
The main character teams up with a badass female with long dark hair.
Both don't see eye to eye and have different viewpoints.
The killer goes to a building which has within it relics from the past.
He steals a specific type of gun from it. Which is illegal for him to own.
The hero is framned for murder by him.
He goes on with one of his allies.
It is revealved that the killer/terroist is secretly in league with one of the leaders of the city.
He set him free in order to usher in a new type new order upon the city.
The killer however decides to takeover and has somebody murder him.
The heros go into a part of their world which is nobody else goes to. The sewer/Cursed Earth.
They encounter a group of individuals who live outside their society.
They have a taste for a type of meat that nobody eats in the city- humans/rats.
In it they find an object from the past world.
There is chase throughout the city.
The heroes go into a building where the killer plans to open up a type of set of hibernation/status containing people whom he will use to takeover the city.
The killer is destroyed and the building with all the people in the pods are destroyed.
At the end the hero is cleared of all charges against him.
The two main characters finally kiss and the city embraces the change of circumstances that have taken place.
@@anubusxthe majority of those are cliches and can apply to any movie, especially scifi
Wesley was rocking the Blade cut before Blade was lol
I remember the first movie Wesley Snipes played in that I can remember and it was a high school football movie called Wildcats.
Yes! He’s one of those guys that always seemed like he emerged fully formed. Never awkward - was awesome from the start.
@@JoBloOriginals Wildcats has one of the greatest continuity errors ever, where a man starts the play black and finishes as a white man! th-cam.com/video/Feh-Ek1o9OI/w-d-xo.html
oh! her name is huxley? lenina huxley?! thats another level...
Love this movie!!
i love this movie and his judge dreadd movie besides cliffhanger. are my top three stallone movies saw all 3 in the theaters.
FEE NIIIIIIIIXXXX!
Great review, great film.
I rented this movie from Blockbuster once, finished, and noticed it was playing on TV.
i liked that movie
We're living this bland, pussy whipped, Brady Bunch future. One of the best action films from the 90s. And Wesley Snipes *would've* made a great Joker as you stated. All these Joel Silver produced action flicks are the boss.
My second favorite Stallone movie. The first being Oscar.
This gives me Happy Happy Joy Joy feelings
1:30 Wow they only got it wrong by 20 years
Goddamn, I forgot how much I love Dennis Leary's rant in "Demolition Man", I need to watch this again!
Simon phoenix was the coolest villain next to the joker 😉
"Oversensitive couch potatoes can no longer think or fend for themselves"
A VERY underrated movie!
Demolition Man is the closest we'll get to Seinfeld's Death Blow.
So many plot holes and gaps in logic but i love this movie.
Someone get this man a better mic.
This film is so perfectly 90s.
The last bit with Denis Leary, you could have segued over to his "I'm an Asshole" song, and nobody would be able to tell the difference.
For people who know Los Angeles, the scene where they show "Wilshire and Santa Monica" is hilarious. I remember the audience in the theater laughing like crazy.
This movie wasnt the greatest but easily in my top 20 movies ever
@ 1:10, in the UK, it was Toco Bell, not Pizza Hut.
Watched the movie when released and i remember that scene like yesterday.
I'm watching this while eating taco bell
Taco Bell winning the fast food wars......... All while I'm eating McDonald's
Love it, iView it as a twin piece to Arnolds last action hero
This movie runs rings around Last Action Hero.
At 3:24 Simon Phoenix is supposed to push the guy into the glass wall. But the guy is restraining himself
You definitely need to do Ford Fairlane.
Only have two questions:
1.How do the seashells work?
2. How do I enhance my calm while doing it?
Fun Fact John Spartan is also one of the many names for master chief, his first name is john and he's a spartan hence john spartan, as well as john 117 (yes a reference to the bible)
I will go bankrupt within an hour of those verbal morality device's being introduced 😟
no no no the hostages were already dead!
11:20 the TV scene always funny :-)
In Poland we had US version and for years I was WTF is Taco Bell, I thought that it's a fake franchise created for a movie to make fun out of McDonalds..
.
It's well worth seeking out Critical Drinker's take on this as having surprisingly satirical depths...
Day by day it cames closer and closer to the actual happening
11:26 clearly a stunt double Spartan
Spot the stunt double in Tango and cash. Watch the scene where he confronts the corrupt cop
Hit paydirt with Kdirt
This movie inspired the Austin Powers movies. This movie inspired Dennis Rodman to paint his hair and get strange...er.
4:11 on the wall is that a PT-Crusier? Its not a Chrysler Airflow. PT didn't come out until 2001
This movie is incredibly prophetic if you think about it. Things that we laughed about in the 90s that are dangerously close to becoming a reality.
Pizza hut??? Oh this is the European version.
Great flick usually I'd watch it back to back with Stallone's Judge Dredd, this was in a way Sly's comeback along with Cliffhanger after the failure of his comedies Oscar and Stop, Or My Mom Will Shoot.
