Absolutely love seeing Matt again. Great video and great movie choice! Would love to see him on more frequently if possible but understandable if it’s not possible.
I loved them working together on that house remodeling thing they did on here, which kinda showed me how dire the need for more Matt/Holden content was😂 whether he wants to be in a video every week or every couple months, still a treat regardless
According to Google, George Lucas was given an advance screening of the rough cut of the film, he enjoyed it and gave it his stamp of approval, and even offered the original Star Wars sound effects for use in the film.
The whole squirrel segment got me laughing. Matt got those jokes. Also picking a few movies to watch at the friends house is perfect. Literally what we or anyone would have done.
Fanboys IS in my "Star Wars Marathon" playlist. I'll watch the original cuts of the Original Trilogy, then Fanboys (because where else would it go?), then start at Episode I and go chronologically from there. I don't care what ANYONE says, that movie is amazingly good! I found it cheap in the bin at Walmart (you know.... THAT bin, not the trash).... and haven't regretted picking it up yet. It's a movie that isn't well known, but has a good story, a heart, and lots of cameos. Definitely worth watching!!!
You have no idea how happy it makes me to see someone react to this film! I've been suggesting it all over the place and you're the first channel to react to it, and you're the channel that got me to start watching reactions. How fitting!
still wild that ernest cline wrote the story for this movie, same dude that made the book ready player one. whcih makes sense with how much nostalgia references in this and the book.
DONT FORGET TO LIKE THEVIDEO GUYS, Also glad you guys watched this, definitely one of my favorites. need more My friend watches love your guys friendship.
Sweet squirrel content. I had a squirrel friend once back in the day. I remember I was in the small patch of woods behind my house taking some b&w photos for my photography class when a baby squirrel came up to me. We hung out for a few hours, it climbed up my leg and perched on my shoulder, etc. I still have a couple of the photo prints I took & developed from that day. Another time involved my friend & my brother at a park. My friend's gf at the time, who coincidentally looks a lot like Jenna, was working somewhere that did a lot of plastic injection molding & industrial 3d printing. She had made him a boomerang and they were testing it out at the park. He threw it into the field and it bonked a squirrel on the head, knocking it out for awhile (unintentionally). They stayed with it until it came to, it then chilled for a few minutes before running off.
Gorge lucas is very cool when it comes to parody and similar stuff involving star wars he allowed family guy to do a parody and seth mcfarlen said he was a good sport about it
I absolutely loved this movie when it released. I remember for years I told my brother to watch this movie and he didn't until I forced him to watch it and that was around 2017 and his reaction was much like Matts at specific jokes especially when the Star Trek Fans entered the shop lol Its not an amazing movie but very relatable humorous movie that I can always watch whether sitting down or just in the background for some noise. I'm glad you 2 were able to watch it. Also I couldn't stop laughing when Holden was talking about Matts Cat now knowing hes had 1 for 15 years hahahaha
Love this movie, it was actually delayed for a long time, after the movie was finished Weinstein didn't like it he wanted to take the cancer plot out of the movie and make it a raunchier road trip movie Fans revolted and forced them to put the cancer plotline back in, rumor is that Weinstein then held a grudge and purposely didn't market the movie so it would tank to spite the filmmakers and the fans for forcing his hand Also supposedly after the movie was finished they sent it to George Lucas who liked it so much he gave them permissions to use all the Star wars sounds and music so it was reedited to include all the real Star wars sounds
I am pretty confident that neither Zoey nor any other cat has appeared in any previous episode of "My friend watches".😂 Sadly, the divisive nature of the Star Wars Fandom, seems largely representative of the vitriole and anonymity of today's world and the online community as a whole. Star Wars just seems magnified because it is one of the largest pop culture Fandoms IMO.
I know it might be difficult to schedule to do reactions with matt, but if you do end up doing another series with him i would HIGHLY reccomend invincible. I think it would be right up matts alley, or at least as far up his alley as a super hero show can be.
You can’t mention Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie and NOT WATCH IT😂. For real though, watching both MMPR: The Movie and Turbo with no context of watching the shows would be hilarious
32:30 never understood this issue…? When I bought the trilogy on DVD, it was a two disc set for the special edition. Disc 2 had some special features, along with the ORIGINAL CINEMATIC CUT pre-97 update. So, all these people claiming “you can’t get/find the original unupgraded cuts”…it’s out there You’d think the big 9 disc blue ray set of the 6 Star Wars films would include the original theatrical cuts since they wouldn’t be too large to include on a blu ray discs storage capacity…
It’s funny if you watch this and Dukes of Hazzard Beginning (2007) and this movie and try to see a difference in Christopher McDonalds (Eric’s dad) performance. He plays Boss Hogg in the Dukes movie. George Lucas was pretty open with productions wanting to make spoofs of Star Wars with certain understandings. Especially independent films cause he likes to encourage creativity. 14:45 they didn’t really rename it. They refer to it as the model name instead of what it’s known as. It would be like them calling the Millenium Falcon YT-1300 Freighter instead of what it’s known as. 26:22 the security guards are dressed like Lucas’s film THX-1138. It’s a fun futuristic film.
fanboys is one of my all time favorite movies. its so clever so well written amazing cameos. i show it to everyone who likes star wars but had never heard of fanboys
Hutch: “you got a lotta nerve showing your face around here, after what you’ve pulled”. silence: Hutch: “I’m just kidding, give daddy a huggy!” Idk why I always find that funny. This movie is underrated and overlooked.
29:09 Why do i see myself watching a video sometime in the future called „My friend watches all Darth Maul-episodes from the Star Wars tv shows …“ on this channel?
Seeing Shooter Mcgavin reminded me of the movie Superhero Movie where he plays the villain, please watch that with Matt! It’s a play on Spider-Man 1 and I think it would be hilarious to see Matt’s reaction for the absolute ridiculousness of it, and Holdens reaction for the love and knowledge of the Spider-Man movies.
I will make two counterpoints on the topic of Boba Fett's ship: First, no one ever says the name of his ship (or, actually, any ship other than the Millennium Falcon) in Star Wars. Second, no one changed the name of Slave I. Disney doesn't print it on any merchandise, but it hasn't been given any different name, either. It's actually just a marking thing that they don't want to use the name on toys and merch for kids.
Actually they do name drop a couple of ships…not to take away the point you are making Examples - on the bridge of the Executor in ESB, whilst Vader speaks to the bounty hunters, an officer reports to admiral Piett “we have a priority signal from the Star Destroyer ‘Avenger’.” ROTJ - the stolen shuttle - approaching the Death Star identified as ‘Tyderium’ In most cases, there various ships are more identifiable by being visually distinct from one another, thus naming is less of an issue. But people are indeed too sensitive of the simple word. Yes, America and the world in general have some dark spots on their history, but to then be afraid of using the word at all, to acknowledge the word exists, is stupid. Not to mention it’s a fictional universe, in which some regions participate in the practice, and as such a characters ship bore the word as its name…ok…so what? What does that have to do with the practice having once happened in earths history? It makes no sense.
I’m a member of the 501st and we show up on opening nights for the films in costume. If only there was a decent quality film to want to go see…too much politics injected these days As the late great Alec Guinness once said on the talk show Parkinson - “the allure of Star Wars is that it is pure escapism, there is no sociopolitical narrative or messaging”
TURBO NEXT FOR THE LOVE OF ALL IN THIS WORLD PLEASE. My favourite thing about this movie is the security at skywalker ranch essentially being from THX1138
The bigger MCU movies on opening night still gets theatre experiences like what's depicted in this movie. But it's definitely something that's dying sadly, for sure.
Absolutely love seeing Matt again. Great video and great movie choice! Would love to see him on more frequently if possible but understandable if it’s not possible.
I loved them working together on that house remodeling thing they did on here, which kinda showed me how dire the need for more Matt/Holden content was😂 whether he wants to be in a video every week or every couple months, still a treat regardless
Your chemistry together will never get old, happy to see you two are still good friends 😂
The banter between the two of you in this video is by far the best you two have ever shared. This is golden
According to Google, George Lucas was given an advance screening of the rough cut of the film, he enjoyed it and gave it his stamp of approval, and even offered the original Star Wars sound effects for use in the film.
The whole squirrel segment got me laughing. Matt got those jokes.
Also picking a few movies to watch at the friends house is perfect. Literally what we or anyone would have done.
I wish this channel had existed in the 90s and we could just get videos of Matt and Holden at Blockbuster deciding what to rent.
😂😂
it'd be a Kevin Smith special presentation
Fanboys IS in my "Star Wars Marathon" playlist. I'll watch the original cuts of the Original Trilogy, then Fanboys (because where else would it go?), then start at Episode I and go chronologically from there.
I don't care what ANYONE says, that movie is amazingly good! I found it cheap in the bin at Walmart (you know.... THAT bin, not the trash).... and haven't regretted picking it up yet. It's a movie that isn't well known, but has a good story, a heart, and lots of cameos. Definitely worth watching!!!
OMFG!!!😂😂😂😂😂 I'm dying!!!
Holden: "There's a cat in here.... has that cat always been here?"
Matt: yep...
How has nobody brought up that Matt named his squirrels after Jim and Dwight from The Office? That’s legit.
"Matt, is this legal?" That line killed me.
Holden finding out about Zoe for the first time was hilarious.
I died at that moment 😂
Same! @@MrDarkSidius
You have no idea how happy it makes me to see someone react to this film! I've been suggesting it all over the place and you're the first channel to react to it, and you're the channel that got me to start watching reactions. How fitting!
Right!!! specially for all the people that do Star Wars Reactions!
Such an underrated film! So many good jokes, cameos and references
Holden had to bring some back-ups to avoid another "Jurassic Park" situation😂😂😂
Treasure your Best Bud, you will never replace them.. We met at 9 .He passed at 70. So much irreplaceable history..
I'm glad you filmed the choosing part that was fun and something I'm not sure I've ever seen a YT film channel do
Loved seeing Matt and Holden just goofing around
I still hope we someday get a sequel about this group of friends getting their hopes up for the sequel trilogy.
"There's so much moral fiber there.." 😂 Matt gunning for the by-gone-Jim moments from the jump.
still wild that ernest cline wrote the story for this movie, same dude that made the book ready player one. whcih makes sense with how much nostalgia references in this and the book.
Always a great time seeing Matt again!
Always great to see my dude Matt! Everyone needs a friend like him 💯
DONT FORGET TO LIKE THEVIDEO GUYS, Also glad you guys watched this, definitely one of my favorites. need more My friend watches love your guys friendship.
matt will never understand the peakness of the turbo power rangers movie which is actually canon to the turbo show

I could’ve sworn Matt talked about this movie before in another video
Gorge lucas is very cool when it comes to parody and similar stuff involving star wars he allowed family guy to do a parody and seth mcfarlen said he was a good sport about it
So good seeing matt again
As a Star Wars fan, this love is absolute gold! This and Balls of Fury was what made me love Fan Fogler
I miss My Friend Watches so much 😭
Omg love seeing Matt again! 💖
Yesss the boys are back together for another video!! 🎉
Finally. Another reaction to this classic.
Fanboys everywhere appreciate it and I’ve been advised.. that I feel the same. 👍🏾
The duos back baby!!
This is such an amazing movie, im glad you guys are watching some stuff here and there!!
I absolutely loved this movie when it released.

That's also why Holden might feel the film is from the early 2000's- it was made a couple years earlier (and was likely written even earlier).
Seeing Matt again really felt like an "Avengers assemble" moment 😂
I am pretty confident that neither Zoey nor any other cat has appeared in any previous episode of "My friend watches".😂
Sadly, the divisive nature of the Star Wars Fandom, seems largely representative of the vitriole and anonymity of today's world and the online community as a whole. Star Wars just seems magnified because it is one of the largest pop culture Fandoms IMO.
Great to see Matt!
Whaddyaknow, Matt is a Disney Princess.
Return of the MATT!
its always awesome when Matt comes back to the channel
I know it might be difficult to schedule to do reactions with matt, but if you do end up doing another series with him i would HIGHLY reccomend invincible. I think it would be right up matts alley, or at least as far up his alley as a super hero show can be.

OG father and son back at it watching movies. 🎉🎉

Damm I’ve missed this Matt+Holden banter
"We've had this cat for fifteen years." "We're best friends."
“Changing history so we don’t know what it was always helps us”. Facts.
"Outcold" is definitely one of those you need to watch. I'm sure you haven't seen it before. It's hilarious and has Zach Galifinakis in it.
Matt is back I missed seeing him and my friend watches.
We need more Matt and Jenna
Haven’t seen this movie in years. Forgot how funny this flick is
@4:20 Because of how small squirrels are, they usually do not get rabies because they do not survive the bite from a rabid animal to then pass it on.
It’s funny if you watch this and Dukes of Hazzard Beginning (2007) and this movie and try to see a difference in Christopher McDonalds (Eric’s dad) performance. He plays Boss Hogg in the Dukes movie. George Lucas was pretty open with productions wanting to make spoofs of Star Wars with certain understandings.

God I love seeing them together again in that house. Now we're just missing Jenna.
Danny Trejo is contractually obligated to play "scary looking Mexican man #1" in every movie until the end of time.
13:10 don’t know if counts, last recent one I know of is that Mitchell’s vs whatever it’s called movie on Netflix.
Missed you guys and love this movie.
Awesome reaction great seeing Matt again
@6:51 omg matt should totally make holden watch the girl next door xD he'd be so caught off guard that movie is wild
Matt is that legal?? Lol there chemistry is hilarious I was cracking up so hard
fanboys is one of my all time favorite movies. its so clever so well written amazing cameos. i show it to everyone who likes star wars but had never heard of fanboys
This movie is so underrated!
Love this movie. Best watched with nerdy friends
Fanboys was my first rented movie from DVD Netflix 13 years ago 😂😂
This might be the funniest video you've done. Not just the reaction but just you 2 having fun
Hutch: “you got a lotta nerve showing your face around here, after what you’ve pulled”.
silence:
Hutch: “I’m just kidding, give daddy a huggy!”
Idk why I always find that funny. This movie is underrated and overlooked.
Love this love. Ernest Cline wrote the screenplay. Same guy who wrote Ready Player One.
Matt is the GOAT
Matt is right It is a Disney movie without the racism and dead parents
And forced sociopolitical narrative and agendas
29:09 Why do i see myself watching a video sometime in the future called „My friend watches all Darth Maul-episodes from the Star Wars tv shows …“ on this channel?
The chrome-faced police officers on Skywalker Ranch were from George Lucas's directorial debut, THX 1138.
Seeing Shooter Mcgavin reminded me of the movie Superhero Movie where he plays the villain, please watch that with Matt! It’s a play on Spider-Man 1 and I think it would be hilarious to see Matt’s reaction for the absolute ridiculousness of it, and Holdens reaction for the love and knowledge of the Spider-Man movies.
I remember when I went to see Ep 1, 2 and 3, that how my theatre was. So fun. Miss those times too.
The Trejo insert in the back was hilarious!
I can't help but think of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation watching the start of this.
always happy to see Matt!
also, showing him power rangers turbo with no context would be absolutely hilarious
You've got to at least start with the first movie.
Episode 9 better than 3? Yeah, Matt's not a Star Wars fanboy.
The cost of Captain Kirk in the use of tom Sawyer pride took the entire budget movie.
I actually have met Dan Fogler. Cool guy.
And Sonic The Hedgehog was a road movie...
I will make two counterpoints on the topic of Boba Fett's ship: First, no one ever says the name of his ship (or, actually, any ship other than the Millennium Falcon) in Star Wars.

Haven't seen Matt since your first videos
Saw episode 2 on opening day, lots of costumes and everyone was excited throughout the whole flick.
Oh, I saw 1, 2, and 3 on opening day. That's the last time we'll ever have experience like that.
I’m a member of the 501st and we show up on opening nights for the films in costume.
If only there was a decent quality film to want to go see…too much politics injected these days
As the late great Alec Guinness once said on the talk show Parkinson - “the allure of Star Wars is that it is pure escapism, there is no sociopolitical narrative or messaging”
the comic book store and java the hut are both in Ausin Texas I think there on the same road been to both of them
Am I the only one to notice the security guards dolled up like the bad guys from THX1138?
Dan Fogler is so good in the offer as Frances Ford Coppola
What? Fury Road is roadtrip movie!?
WE NEED MMPR GET JEN TOO. I DONT KNOW WHY THIS IS IN CAPS.
Have them watch the bad movie from 1995 and then watch the great movie from 2017.
I neeed to know about the squirrels wtf amazing 😂😂
It was pretty unique. Lil dudes just followed us back to the house so we rehabbed em.
Fuck yeah love Matt episodes!!! And with a Great movie always a classic
That statue of Captain Kirk got me laughs because of add on.
TURBO NEXT FOR THE LOVE OF ALL IN THIS WORLD PLEASE.
My favourite thing about this movie is the security at skywalker ranch essentially being from THX1138
Love this movie!
I love this film as much as Paul 2011, among the other few movies where I like seth rogen's characters.
Please watch Turbo!
20:45 im just thinking is there a cat ot are they just high
The bigger MCU movies on opening night still gets theatre experiences like what's depicted in this movie. But it's definitely something that's dying sadly, for sure.
@ 10:57 That actor is Issac Kappy and I highly suggest you Google him and/or his death. Pretty interesting stuff.
Ole Hankx
