The minutes after Cheech picks up Chong in his car is some of the funniest shit I've ever seen.
Hey You aint a chick
Always been my favourite bit of any of their films.
That’s all I remember from this movie because it’s so funny.
In my top 5 funniest bits..... I'm 66 lol
HAY yew ainna chiiik!
“Dave? Dave? Dave’s not here, man!!!”. If you know, you know. ;-)
I was a little girl when I first listened to Cheech and Chong’s comedy albums. I didn’t quite get the pot humor, but my favorite of their bits was “Sister Mary Elephant.” “Claaassss, claaasssssss…SHUUUUUT UPPPPPP!!!!”
"You keep on knockin' but you can't come in..." 😂 laughing at that
"Come back tomorrow night and try again!"
Cheech & Chong actually did win a battle of the bands contest without playing any instruments. They just went up on stage and did improv comedy that cracked everyone up.
This is the king of Stoner comedies in my opinion. Cheech and Chong next movie is also hilariously funny😂
Red!
Well Holy Sheepsh*t I must agree.
I like Nice Dreams a lot too.
Gotta Agree w/that lol....Cousin Red is faf😁🤘
The lyrics to " Rock Fight" are awesome ! It makes the whole seen cooler .
As kids in the 70's, we all had friends with a Cheech and Chong or George Carlin album. Fun childhood.
SO glad someone is finally reacting to one of the all-time great comedy duos! Thanks, Emily!!
I have seen this movie countless times , and everytime I see something I didn't see the last time ... For instance : when Sargent Stadinco and his crew bust Strawberry's house,Cheech and his crew are looking in the window . It's the little stuff in the background now . This movie never got old .
Tommy Chong is a truly talented guitar player. Anytime he's on-screen playing guitar, it's really him.
I live in a small town called Appleton, Wisconsin. My niece works at a music shop here in town. About 10 years ago she sold a Fender Stratocaster guitar to Tommy Chong. I happened to be in the store and met him. Obviously, he was much older then, but I'll never forget hearing that familiar voice. I'm in my 60's now but meeting him made me feel like a kid again.
Look for "Does Your Mama Know About Me" by Bobby Taylor and The Vancouvers. Co-written and performed by...
I would love to meet both C&C!
He killed it on "Mexican American"
@@hendrix6 Beenurs ... gonna kick you in da face!
@bobkupi9905 Greetings from Antigo.
The thing to know is this movie is really just a bunch of their bits from their comdey albums strung together.
“Hey dont take those man”
That delivery lol
I'm in Vancouver, BC... the birthplace of Cheech and Chong. Tommy Chong used to own a club called the Shanghai Junk... a topless bar. C&C used to do comedy sets between dancers. It's now my bank. I saw them onstage a few years ago, and they said Up In Smoke was based on the stoner culture of Vancouver. Sgt. Stedenko was based on real-life Vancouver undercover drug cop Abe Snidanko. After the movie came out, his cover was blown, so they had to ship him to another country. C&C sent him an autographed photo when he retired. 😋
Another fun fact: Tommy said they got high while making this movie, but they waisted so much film, that they never filmed high again. 😋
And other fun fact: Just 2 blocks south from Shanghai Junk, was Vie's Chicken and Steak House... Jimi Hendrix's grandmother Nora, was the cook. Jimi stayed up here for a bit as a child, then returned after being discharged from the army. He used to practice at Vie's after hours.
His grandma Nora is famous in her own right. One of the first settlers in Vancouver, co-founded Vancouver's first black church, and was a community organizer. Her house is a heritage home... Hendrix House, and she's the first black woman to have a street named after her in Vancouver. She's also on a Canadian Heritage postal stamp. She was an amazing woman.
I knew this one would be perfect for you. 😄
If you watch Cheech & Chong's Next Movie (that's the title), you'll get cameos from Paul Reubens, Edie McClurg, and Cassandra Peterson.
If you listen to their albums, you'll get a cameo from people like George Harrison playing on their songs. They were basically rock stars by doing their comedy.
Janice the Muppet is definitely based on the stoner surfer girl culture.
"Ohhh NUHHH!"
Saw this as a 17 year old at an all night showing in a cinema full of Hells Angels!!! 😂
1976, I was 19 hanging out at the lakefront ( Lake Pontchartrain) in New Orleans on a Sunday afternoon where I ended up smoking the baddest shit ever with some Hell's Angels. I coughed my lungs out and after two hits was high as a kite. I asked what the fuck was that and the dude replied " Oh, that was just some some horse shit I had". Those were the days.
Don't believe that for one second
My mom and dad went to see them live in Memphis in 1980 or 81. Before C & C started the show, a guy came out on stage and sat on the edge. His shirt pockets were stuffed as full as they would go with joints. He started lighting them and handing them out to the audience. My parents were in the balcony, but my mom went down and got one. The place was totally smoked out like the Alice Bowie concert.
Imagine watching this movie with 8 Post Teenage High School Freaks, Dropping Acid and Smoking Pot in a Chevy Impala (like Cheech's Impala), at the Drive-in movie theater in 1978, and you will know that this movie, was all about us.
From the 60's, through High School in the 70's, and everyday after, we lived this movie. In deed, Up In Smoke was like a validation of who we were.
As stand up comedians, they released their first album "Cheech & Chong" in 1971 and quickly rose to fame as we would all gang up in the car, and drive around smoking dope while listening to them on the radio. And girl, I could tell you some stories.
Needless to say, Cheech and Chong quickly became our heroes. Along with Led Zeppelin, of course.
But yeah, those were the days.
I could legit hop out of bed any time day or night with no rehearsal and get up on stage and act out this entire movie scene for scene, word for word. Front ways, backways, sideways, slantways and any other ways that you can think of. And up until now, I've pressed them all Charlie...
As a new 'smoker' myself, i'll just let you know, that I paused this video 1 second in, so I could, go get something. Grew up on these as a kid, but didn't touch anything until now, at 50
I didn't know your name was Alex!
Uh his name is Raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalph
Dave's not here man.
still cracks me up, 30yrs later
I'm not big into stoner stuff myself, but no Christmas is complete without listening to Cheech & Chong's "Santa Claus and His Old Lady".
The part where he calls the reindeer is what I set as my ringtone this time of year.
they played it on the radio here LOL
i ws laughing so hard i had to pull over
Grew up listening to Cheech & Chong plus George Carlin albums. Heard all of Cheech & Chong albums before I smoked a joint or drinked alcohol (drinking age was 18 then). They were funny when your sober. Lots of their album skits was in Up In Smoke. But I did see this movie at a theater & home video stoned. So I went for it.
They had a hit few years before with the song *"Earache My Eye".* The song in the film played by *"Alice Bowie"* (A cross between Alice Cooper & David Bowie) was that hit single.
I loved the ajax lady in this film. Music was great. And I didn't stare at that guy's neck.
And the closing number is "Earache My Eye" from their "Big Bambu" album. In fact, everything you see is basically from all of their albums, including the bird's "Dave's Not Here" routine. The nuns were from the "Sister Mary Elephant" bit.
They helped introduce a lot of comedic talent in their films. From Paul Ruebens, i.e. Pee Wee Herman, to Michael Winslow, the human sound effects machine.
Omg I watched this movie with my buddy nearly eveyday when I was a stoner and 16. Who am i kinding? Im still a stoner😂
The OG stoners. You should have seen this at the drive-in. Some forget that both Cheech & Chong are very talented musicians which they include in many of their movies. Now, since you've started, you must do "Still Smoking" and "Nice Dreams", along with some of the non-stoner movies like "The Corsican Brothers" and "Yellow Beard" which is a collaboration with the Monty Python folks.
I do NOT know why everybody shits on THE CORSICAN BROTHERS and YELLOWBEARD. There's great casts and some magnificent jokes.
Born In East LA was great too.
Drive-in? "there's a spot over by the snack bar man . . . ."
Up in smoke
Thats where my money goes
In my lungs
And sometimes up my nose
When troubled times
Begin to bother me
I take a toke
And all my cares
Go up in smoke
I got to comment on my favorite "if you know, you know" scenes.
"The Led Zeppelin Joint"
After they smoked that huge joint down to 2 inches, they pass it like it's a tiny roach.
"El Roach-O"
That is the moment Tommy Chong became the king of stoners. Anybody can smoke large amounts of weed, but Chong lit that tiny roach with a match, got it to hit and smoked it till it was gone.
Hail to The King, baby.
It is one of the funniest movies ever....Up there with Blazing Saddles, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Airplane, National Lampoon's Vacation and Animal House. Just that damned funny.
C&C have recently confirmed that this film was mostly improvised. They knew where the scenes were supposed to go, but there wasn't a script. They just did their comedy, fitting it into the situations that had been outlined.
Been watching this since I was a kid. One of my father's all time favorites. I've always been a big fan of their entire catalog of movies. Keep watching, they're comedy gold.
I've been a fan of Cheech & Chong for decades. Had all their albums &, like many of my friends, can quote much of the dialogue, even 45 years later... including the song lyrics. Welcome to our world! BTW, we're gonna hold you to the costume statement... but it should be for New Years '24! Free the Tiddies!
Definitely the king of stoner films and interesting to see Los Angels locations as depicted in 1978:)
My partner told me that, once upon a time, her sister could recreate the Ajax Girl's freakout perfectly. Cheech and Chong's "Santa and his old lady" routine is a holiday tradition in our house. Cool reaction, man.
This movie was shot in and around my childhood neighborhood.
Cheech and Chong toured with such head linning acts Alice Cooper and The Rolling Stones
nice to see someone/anyone reacting to this classic, i seen it new, own it on dvd today, but havent watched it for a long time, i love watching reactors discovering our music from the 70s, and now one of our classic films from then, we actually was pretty cool, long ago before we all grew old, and we had some pretty kicka55 music and movies,,,,enjoy, as much as i will/do/have
I think the opening intro in the car is one of the funniest scenes in movie history no matter what you think of C&C.
Two years before "Up in Smoke" arrived in theaters, the edgy comedy film of the summer of '76 was "Car Wash". It all takes place in one day at an actual Los Angeles car wash (located at Rampart and 6th St at the time). Richard Pryor and George Carlin appear. It's a slice of life, ensemble cast, comedy with a some drama.
Subbed.
Just found your channel & really enjoyed your reaction/analysis..So I naturally subscribed..
When released,, This movie was a huge hit..
The song played at the "Battle Of The Bands" is actually one of their hit songs called "Earache My Eye" & I would definitely suggest listening to it,, All the lyrics are really fun/funny..Other must hear songs by Cheech & Chong "Basketball Jones" & "Born In East L.A." & Also their "Peter Rooter Commercial",, Etc..Etc.
My favorite Cheech & Chong movie is Things Are Tough All Over. Cheech & Tommy play dual characters.
I remember watching this when it first came out. Cheech and Chong movies never get old.
@ 1:55 haha I gave my dad one of those coffee cups and a half oz of my homegrown for his birthday and he loves it! Also has never used both functions, because it looks tricky to clean.
The duo met in Canada cheech was a draft dodger and Tommy's first band was a name i can't really say it was 3 n words and a c word, Tommy is is a Chinese Canadian Tommy's oldest daughter is Ray dawn chong the lead actress in the commando movie her first movie was quest for fire with ron Pearl man not an english word spoken the entire movie and there is no subtitles, but ray dawn does heal Ron's wounds in a very loving way
Remember watching this with my mates years ago ,we were well stoned and chuckled all the way through film ,happy days, in my 70s now really enjoyed your reaction ,thanks Emily.
lol! the dog snatching the burrito in TJ was ablibbed!
Seen them live in concert, funny comedy show 👍😎👌🤣🤣🤣
Born in 86 grew up watching this Movie LOVE IT! LOL
IN A TIME WHEN I NEED IT THE MOST. AN ABSOLUTE JOY YOU ARE TO CHILL WITH. THANK YOU LOVE
So glad you checkin out this great one, Im tokin as I watch it with you! My older brother had their 1972 Big Bambu album & thats what got me into them back then when I was 12-13! The sleeve for the record was a huge rolling paper & we did use it✌💖☮
LOVED your entire reaction, there were to many great moments. One of my favorites was when u compared the blond to the blond Muppet 😆😆😆
I started high school in the eighties and at the first all school assembly the principal said
“ we have a no tolerance policy on drugs or drug culture”…. He paused for dramatic effect . From the very back of the gym in a Chong voice everyone could hear ..” oh Farrrr out man “ those who laughed knew . The person who said that became a friend and we started trading Cheech and Chong albums. All time favorite skit Pedro and the man go to the drive in . Those albums were so well done that 50 years later I still laugh my ass off.
Its great to rewatch these movies with your reactions, you're a hoot!
One of the cool things that happened while filming the movie was that the battle of the bands captured some of the first American punk bands early in their career. The filmmakers asked them to make themselves sound bad, which is why some of them appear a bit awkward. Some of the other Cheech and Chong movies are pretty good, although they slowly veered away from stoner comedy. The two had a falling out in the 80s, but got back together in 2010.
The greatest stoner movie of all time, imo.
I remember one of their records came with a giant rolling paper. Yep, we used it. 😉
Big Bamboo lol, we all used e mm😁🤙
@@riff8114 Right, Big Bamboo.
We also used to stick a bunch of Zig Zags together to make a big rolling paper 😀
@@jackgilchrist weed costs too much now lol🙄🤘🥴
"No, who is this is?" will be burned into my brain for the rest of my life.
This is my number one comedy movie of all time.
I saw them live in 1978 in Harrisburg Pa....they basically did the entire movie on stage as a skit.....and everyone was blazing up....Peace!
I loved this movie, I had heard my uncles talk about how Cheech and Chong were some of the funniest all time comic duos so i watched this and immediately went back out to Blockbuster and rented the Sequel.... Still Smokin' and i hope you will too. Thanks for the great solo today
Cheech and Chong movies are so entertaining! Glad you enjoyed this wonderful movie!
Up in smoke is so classic, saw it when I was 15 and even though my teenage years were in the 2000's.
The movie still had so much charm to it, and I'll say yes there's lots of great stoner comedies out there but Cheech and Chong's Up in Smoke started it all, the godfather of Stoner comedies
And still really works in 2023.
Was in high school in the 70s. For all the rest of you who were too, I don't have to say much else. 😁
The dog taking his burrito wasn't scripted, it just happened for real.
FINALLY THANK GOD.....
....SHOUT OUT TO YOU FOR GIVING CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE
Is it a week or a day? A weekday.
That was my late Stoney baby’s inside joke with me. My favorite line: “I didn’t know your name is Alex.”
This movie is a classic, love it. I remember sneaking a listen to my brothers cheech & chong records in the early 80's!
I love High Emily. And reacting to this movie makes it even better.
For context a "lid" is an ounce, and for $100 in 78 translates to almost $500 per ounce. Prices like that now are only in DC and Illinois
If nobody put it up yet Korn covered their song 'earache in my eye' from the end. Cheech also performs.
The song they played on stage (earache my eye) made it to number 9 on the top 100 billboard chart, all by accident of course. true story!
Speaking of two pairs in a pear tree lol
Am glad you watch these older movies that were VERY POPULAR back in the day. This is one of the "HISTORICAL HILARIOUS" Movies everyone should see.
One of my fondest memories is of watching this with my dad, he laughed so hard when Cheech asks "we're smokin dog shit?!" he literally began to weep he was laughing so hard. I miss my dad, happy holidays! Paper comes from tree farms grown to make paper. Don't worry about trees.
"Oh, wait, don't take those man.."
I remember watching this as a 7 year old from the back seat of my sister's boyfriends car at the drive-in. Our mom made her take me on her date. I was also told not to tell mom what movie we saw.
Great Reaction To This Super Funny 🤣🤣🤣 Movie, Emily
45 years ago, where does the time go? Great review and movie!
Watched this with my favorite uncle when I was 13 and I literally could not stop laughing...
Still one of my favorite comedies, it's simple and you can turn off your brain and just enjoy.
The only time that "chongs" name is mentioned in the movie is when his dad started by saying "Anthony I wanna talk to ya"lol. So Chong is tony. Lol
I'm so 1978 Mannn!!!! and you're so fun.
My dad had me watch this with him when I was about 8 or 9. I got exactly zero of the jokes
Love your reaction Emily, your laugh is priceless. 😄
Dave's not here man
The name of their band, Alice Bowie, was a spoof of "cross-dressing" artists Alice Cooper and David Bowie. Chong's red outfit has on it the logo of a popular brand of quaalude from back in the day.
I grew up watching this movie lol because my dad like to smoke 💨
This was soooo much fun to watch!!! 🤣🤣🤣
The comedy alblum cover, the actual record sheaf, was a rolling paper dispenser with a rolling paper large enough to roll that "cigarette" they were smoking in the car at the beginning.
Yes!!!! Such a good movie
When I was a kid and now today this is one of the greatest comedy duo.
That ol' El Camino you dreamt about, you really wanted the interior that I presumed 16 year old boys just imagined girls liked! Guess I'm proven wrong, these kids know what's going on! 😀My first car (at least when I had a license) actually was a '73 El Camino SS, however not with your desired styling. I only kept it for a year though, I wanted something to haul more snatch in. Since then I've grown to hate having people in my car, but have never gotten another El Camino. Maybe I should?
This is a fun movie!! I don't remember right now if it's got one sequel or several, but there is at least one and you should watch that too.
Thanks for uploading! Greetings from Sweden
When I was in college a lid was $30. That was a full four finger ounce of fine Columbian. We were outraged when it went to $35 by my Junior year and $40 by my second senior year.
Yeah, but that shit ain't shit, man.
😂😂 Great reaction. The song Earache in my eye, is on my playlist. 😂😂
Too much fun. More solo reactions please! ❤❤❤
Awesome to see you react to such a great movie. That was a 10/10 movie for a very long time, but I'll admit 8/10 is acceptable today.
I was a teenager when it came out an me an my friends were so high had to go back an watch it straight to remember what happened
Hahaha! Great reaction! :)😂
I have the same cute coffee cup that I have never used that way for the same reason😂❤ thanks for your solo reactions
The bike cop played the part so well 🤣🤣🤣
i loved the Valium spareTire cover on the back of theVan!!!!😂🎉
