Because the young people of today 35 and under are ignorant, stupid and have no clue about entertainment or the past they refuse to consider or learn about,thats Why and it Stinks!!!!!
Because the young people of today 35 and under are ignorant and stupid and refuse to learn about the past and see and hear entertainment the way it was with people who were terrific and cared about being a professional, it's gone now and will never ever come back !!!!!
One of the greatest motion pictures EVER made! Combining all that comedic genius into one forum was a difficult feat, but they pulled it off. Old school performers like Spencer Tracy, Jimmy Durante, Jack Benny, the Three freakin' Stooges and Jerry Lewis to name a few and new school performers like Jonathan Winters, Buddy Hackett, Dick Shawn and Phil Silvers to name a few. A masterpiece!
I'm a kid again! 66 now, but back then, already doomed to love this when I saw Mrs. Beech's airplane fly through that billboard ... RIP both Frank and Paul!! What a spectacular stunt!!
Step into the lobby... For whatever is your hobby... A drink, a smoke, or repeat some joke... From A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World! Try stepping into the lobby for a smoke today! Great movie - my second-favorite of all time after "Cold Turkey".
LMAO! I remember that 1971 movie "Cold Turkey" in which Dick Van Dyke played a priest. My favorite part is when he and the mayor of the town are counting down the final minutes to 12 midnight and the end of the 30 day smoking ban when they notice that someone is tampering with the big clock in the town square and trying to make it indicate 12 midnight. Dick Van Dyke and the mayor start shouting, "DON'T SMOKE! THE BIG CLOCK IS WRONG!" and a bystander retorts, "BIG CLOCKS ARE NEVER WRONG!" :D
Back around 2010 -2012 I visited my grandpa on my dads side of the family for the last time. He wasn't all there due to the affects of being under anesthesia for too long during a surgery. this was the last movie I watched with him. I love this movie so much because I remember it being REALLY funny but also being the last movie I watched with my grandparents on my dads side. They were the only reason why we would go to Portland. I miss them, I wish I could go back and experience going to their place just one more time.
I want to take a trip to southern La, I work for the airline and Im gonna try to find some of the sites, such as the ramp going down to Santa Monica where Capt Colepepper went off in the other direction and Ethel Merman said" Hes going the other way" and the gang chased him
@@THECARS7879 - Santa Monica, the California Street incline. The climactic scene was filmed all over Long Beach. I don't know Long Beach at all, so I don't know how much it's changed since the early 1960s. The Pike roller coaster is long gone. "Mad World" is a wonderful time capsule of the way Southern California used to be.
This is an absolutely wonderful soundtrack! Nothing like it since this movie was made it lasts in your mind forever the music is intoxicating and very unusual !!!!
Watched it with my folks when I was 13 in the Cinerama Dome when it came out. A memory that will always grab me by the heart. I'm renting it from Netflix in a few days. Hope I live that long in my condition.
SchmoozeMinkey I was only a year old when it was released so of course I missed out, but my father had us watch it when it premiered on TV back in, I think, 1974/75. He really loved the movie so he wanted to share it with us and we all laughed together as a one family sitting together on the same sofa at the same time watching the same screen with no distractions. Imagine that!
Earnest Gold and Stanley Kramer worked closely with each other. Gold watched the rushes and composed on the fly. It all worked out though to make this '62/'63 classic.
As a kid I loved this movie and still do now more than ever! If you've never seen it three times or less now's the time to enter the REAL human race and start appreciating true comedic as well as musical talent in a wonderfully comedic production tour de force!
I only saw It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World for the first time recently after watching the mediocre Rat Race, and Mad World has to be one of the funniest movies I've ever seen :)
I don't know how old you are, but in my 60s now (I was maybe 10 or 14 when this came out) you really can't appreciate the talent involved!! Eddie Anderson played Jack Benny's butler/valet on the b/w tv show called (surprise!) "The Jack Benny Show" ... Well, see, half of the fun you're missing is that Eddie ( "Oh, Rochester?" "Yassa, Mr. Benny? ) was one of the cab drivers at the end, so he had an important part in the big finalé, but Mr. Jack Benny pulled up (in his OWN antique car, I think it was a Bentley) and somebody (Ethel Merman?) yells "GET LOST, BUSTER!" and Benny sniffs, "Well!" and drives away. This movie is FULL of shit like this! Do you know Mr. Magoo? Probably the 3 Stooges, Did you ever hear an Aesop & Son Fractured Fairy Tale? Edward Everett Horton's hardware and lumber, not ringing any bells, eh? Youth is wasted on the young.
I only saw it for the first time last June. I watched a trailer around 7 or 8 or 9 years ago and was kind of interested because I like watching car chases in movies. I was browsing through TH-cam during quarantine while trying to find a video to watch while I eat my lunch. I found this movie and it was free with ads. I looked up a little information about it and decided to just go for it. It's now one of my favorite movies and I requested Fathom Events to screen it. They're not always available to take requests but when they are, they're really nice. I suggested this movie and they said they'll pass it on.
Just LISTEN to this recording! (Hopefully with Headphones)... The arrangements, the pristine stereo recording and acoustics... EVERYTHING IS MAGICAL!!!! not to mention the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra....(and Ernest Gold, obviously!)
so they played this last Monday (July 9, 2012 ) in LA, and I MISSED it! Mickey Rooney was there and said it ought to be put into circulation for eberyone to see, not just special like this. Next year will be the 50th anniversary, too, hopefully it will be restored--like Laurence of Arabia was and seen again.
Try to make a movie today and you won't be able! Just think of almost every big name in Hollywood in 1962 showing up in some way. I wonder if the MGM remaster has the scenes that were edited from the theatrical release. I am aware of one scene between Tracy and Buster Keaton. What a great movie! Thank you all. I think that Carl Reiner is the very last performer still alive from the movie.
Jacob Jaime's Movie World I would love to back in time to the premiere and see the version that is around 210 minutes long. The restored version on Criterion is 197 minutes long!
Fun facts; The DVD featues the Entr'acte and Exit Music while the Blu-ray has the Overture and Exit Music (explains why the runtimes on both formats are different). Hopefully if and should Criterion re-releases the film on both formats, it will include them all.
My beloved '69 Vista Cruiser (just like Eric Forman's car in "That '70s Show") is bigger than most non-SUV cars today. However, it was considered a mid-size car in the late 1960s! Olds didn't make a full-size wagon from 1964-70 (the Vista was their mid-size entry with a 5" longer wheelbase than the plain Cutlass wagon, and it competed with full-size wagons). The '71-'76 Olds Custom Cruisers and their "clamshell" sisters were among the biggest cars ever made other than Cadillacs and SUV's.
OldsVistaCruiser I think your comment is on the wrong video. This is the Overture/Intermission/Entr’acte/Exit Music for the film It’s A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World!
I lst saw the film, in the late 60's, on NBC Saturday Night at The Movies! My sister and I were around 10 years old. Dad, told us he saw the film, in Cinerama, and his Parents, saw it also in Cinerama, all in Omaha Nebr.. Dad, loved the end when Mrs. Marcus, fell on her duff, in the Hospital. Grandpa and Grandma, ducked during the airplane scene. My sister and I loved the part when Lennie Pike, kicked Mr. Phyll Sylver's in the stomack, underneath the Big W. Lol..........the inocense of that Generation, seems to be lost. Later 1989, Christmas Night, WTBS, aired the film. Dad, found it boring than. 1980 HBO, late Summer aired it! I than could see how Amerca's inocense wast lost? That's the way I see it anyway. God Bless
Stano97 That’s how I see it too. It was the end of era. Innocence gone forever. What happened after this great rollicking film? JFK, Vietnam, the counter-culture mess. This never could have been produced in say, 1973, because it was too late. America had become too cynical by then. And it DEFINITELY could not be produced today because I don’t believe we have anybody in Hollywood with a genuine sense humor who would NOT alter the entire plot, location, and cast for fear of leaving a particular group out.
It was on NBC Saturday Night at the Movies for the first time on Mar. 9, 1974. I saw a lot of it that night, including the climactic scene on the firetruck ladder. I remember mentioning the film to my 3rd grade teacher the next Monday morning.
If it is restored, I would like them to add credits to the end, using the exit music, because though the Saul Bass/Shamus Culhane opening is my favorite thing in the film, you can't read all the names, --especially in the "explosion" of names in the credits where dozens of comedian's names are spilling into the air"-- and it is helpful to have them again at the end. There is a thread about this film somewhere, I can't recall it now, though where one creator has commented
What will it be like if the song was composed by Harry Warren and written by Johnny Mercer? That would've been fabulous in my opinion. Plus, the song would've been performed by the cast of the 1994 film, "The Little Rascals".
It played at the Samual Goldwyn Theater, as part of the Academy of Arts and sciences "Last 70 mm film festival" rotten rats why did not they promote this for ALL of us? There are movies every monday all sold out
The studios are run by business enterprises these days, so they really don't care what version gets out there into what country. Only recently has TCM decided to go widescreen and stereo in Australia. Sometimes they still have pan and scan copies of scope movies, but the thing gets me is they stick their RED watermark logo in the top right corner and it's usually over an actor's face like a postage stamp!! No love of the movies whatsoever. I hope they see this comment!!
TOG2001...there's a deluxe edition of this film that has the overture and the multi-colored beginning...MGM needs to just go ahead and release the film in it's original theatrical form!! I've read that many of the prints don't exist, so we may never get to see it...
Unfortunately, though somewhat enlightening in the lyrics, this type of comedy is more in line with Bye Bye Birdie's "Put On A Happy Face" philosophy than Norman Lear's 1970s works of enlightenment. Contrary to popular belief, the Detroit automobile industry did not influence Coughlin, though he more likely influenced their donations to him. Damn, the nack for hell-raising which he had quite well in the 1970s needs to return to King Lear, who now has the failed One Day At A Time remake as his Facebook banner rather than his main masterpiece All In The Family and its spinoffs. Even Sanford and Son was a great work of art.
Our traffic is so congested... Ask a nation on wheels... But Detroit is adroit... What they'll do in Detroit is make bigger automobiles! So true - cars got even bigger until the mid-1970s, and a gas crisis or two, they downsized and then started getting bigger again, and now the Ford Expedition is even larger than a '76 Cadillac Fleetwood, the biggest pre-gas crisis gas hog available!
Two mistakes Hollywood made , in 1958 not making The Big Country BEST Picture of the Year, and in 1963 not allowing Its a mad mad mad mad world to be BEST Picture of the Year. The music alone for both films plus the outstanding acting alone should have been enough and that's a proven fact!!!!!

its really lame in the beginning and in the end, but in the middle, there are a few really good jokes. Overall, its good, but not as good as Mad Mad World.
Why the heck do people not talk about this movie anymore! The newer generation like myself needs to be shown this masterpiece.
Because the young people of today 35 and under are ignorant, stupid and have no clue about entertainment or the past they refuse to consider or learn about,thats Why and it Stinks!!!!!

Rat race was good in my opinion but this movie is far more superior. Way bigger and funnier.
This is one of those films where they milk every gag for what it is worth, from the opening credits to the very end.
They hired almost every working stand-up, Film, TV and recording comedian of 1963. Very few were not in the movie.
@@JK-mt1oe : Really....the list of comedians and comic actors who were _not_ in the movie is longer than the list of those who _were!_ :-D

Is make bigger automobiles
So be a happy fellow
