RIP John Candy
John was a treasure of humanity. Dude was too good for the rest of us.
RIP John Candy
Whenever his name is mentioned, my first thought is the still shot at the end of this movie. Aside from his terrific comedy, he brought a warmth to every role he played.
Thanks for the great reaction!
"You should see the toast, I couldn't get it through the door!" - one of my favorite lines
The actress playing the oldest daughter played Iceman's wife in Top Gun: Maverick. The actress playing the younger daughter Maisy, and Uncle Buck's girlfriend Shanice played mother and daughter in Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner. And Marcy was played by Laurie Metcalf from the tv sitcom Roseanne.
This is one of my most favorite movies, I never get tired of rewatching it. On average, I watch it 3-4 times a year. It's just so much fun and heartwarming.
The actress playing Maizy looks older than the actress playing Tia, these days. I recently saw her(Maizy actress) in something recent(Lakers biopic series on HBO) and had no idea until later that she was that little girl all grown up now.
Laurie Metcalf also played Sheldon's mother in big bang theory.
And when this is John Hughes movies it's set to Chicago suburbs , thats why houses look similar in this , Home alone , Ferris Bueller's day off , The Breakfast club , Sixteen candles , She's having a baby and Weird Science .
THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT TRIVIA, ALL I KNEW WAS MARCY AS THE SISTER FROM ROSEANNE.
The kid who plays Bug also played Johnny Storm aka. The Human Torch in Roger Corman's unreleased 'Fantastic 4'.
I want to know how many Dads watched the pancake scene with their kids and had to fend off years of "can we make giant pancakes with a snow shovel?!" pleading from their kids. It's got to be in the tens of thousands.
I was more curious as to how you make toast too big to fit through a door.
That closing shot of John Candy always tears me up.
Such a great shot with a great song playing in the background “Rhythm of Life” by Hugh Harris. When I think of John Candy I always think of that still frame at the end
Thing about John Candy is that even when they try to dress him schlubby he somehow makes it look cool.
swagger is a matter of charisma.
Uncle Buck the best babysitter ever 👍
John Candy.
One of THE most under-rated actors of all time.
His performances in Uncle Buck, Only The Lonely, Stripes...and ALL those years on SCTV? Are among the best comedy-drama style levels of all times.
Candy could make you laugh one minute and tear up the next.
Like a second Caroll O'Connor he was.
Candy is a legend!
Uncle Buck...5 *****
5 Neat Guys skit kills me EVERY SINGLE TIME.
Love this movie. I saw it in real time in the theater back in 1989. I was just out of high school. I enjoyed every second of it. That last image, freeze frame with John Candy smiling and waving really touches my heart. Since John Candy passed away, that's the image I have of him whenever I think of him. Just a nice, funny, friendly guy.
That scene kind of gets to me, too. It feels like he's waving goodbye to us all.
From everything I've heard John Candy really was a normal, down to Earth friendly guy.
He definitely made my very short list of celebrities I'd like to hang out with.
This movie is why I have a mild phobia for walking behind car tailpipes. Lol
Adventures In Babysitting and Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead. Two babysitting movies that are like John Hughes but not, if someone said they were you would believe them.
Chris Columbus (The Harry Potter franchise, Home Alone 1 & 2, Mrs. Doubtfire, this) directed Adventures starring Elizabeth Shue.
Stephen Herek (Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure, The Mighty Ducks and the highly underrated tv show Dead Like Me) directed Don't Tell Mom starring Christina Applegate. They both co-star Keith Coogan.
This is one of those films that oozes nostalgia for me, it never gets old. And now as an adult, I cry happy tears at the end 😂
And yeah, teenagers are really good at psychological warfare and we hate them for it lol
I love this movie so much. Thank you for another wonderful reaction as always. Fun sports tidbit as I'm a 49ers fan and it's pertinent to this movie's cast.
During the 1989 Superbowl in which there was a little over 3 minutes left in the game and the Niners were losing 13-16, Joe Montana could see he'd lost control of his offense. They were frustrated, rattled, and totally devoid of focus while still having to cross 88 yards (out of 100) to win the game. Harris Barton, one of Joe's linemen who happened to be a big fan of learning about and meeting celebrities, was particularly out of sorts. During the initial huddle to start the drive, Joe knew he had to settle his team and get them back in the game. What does he do? He gestures to the sideline for all his team-mates to see and says "Look H, there's John Candy!" Sure enough, there he was...John Candy in all his sports-loving glory...there to watch Joe do his thing in person under the brightest lights.
That was all it took to loosen the nerves of Harris and the rest of the offense. The team went on to score the game-winning touchdown to win yet another Superbowl.
John Candy rules!
John Candy was so great, wish we could have had him longer than we did, but even the short amount of time we did, was more than we deserved.
So happy to see Macaulay Culkin and John Candy reunited in Home Alone. Even though they weren't in the same frames.
Also only the lonely they were both in.
So isn’t that actually not being reunited?
From what I understand John Candy did the one day of shooting for that cameo for free for his buddy John Hughes.
@@suprchickn7745 he did, but Fox only paid him just over $400 for the appearance(which was basically all improv) and he was bitter about it for years, according to Chris Columbus.
@@ninjavigilante5311 I don't know that one
Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Chevy Chase, and Tom Hanks were considered to play Uncle Buck. All four of them collaborated with John Candy in his previous movies.
John Candy(God Rest his soul) was 39 in this movie and died at 43 while filming Wagons East.
I love this movie! 9.5/10 for me!
The actress who played Tia went on and starred in a late 90's/early 2000's sitcom called _Yes, Dear!_ People who are or were aware of this sitcom, when I tell them this it almost always catches them off guard.
Because the character she plays in sitcom, a house wife who her and husband just had their first baby, has such a bubbly personality. She was the former cheerleader in high school "we've got spirit, yes we do!" always optimistic one. The actress totally went 180 from Tia for this character and was did a great job!
If Rick Moranis had taken the role of Bob Russell, that would have been *4* movies he had a part in in summer 1989.
_Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!, Ghostbusters II,_ and _Parenthood_ all came out that summer.
Which ties directly into one of my favorite observations...
Ahhhhhhh *1989* What an amazing movie summer that year had! It was jammed packed full of films the entire summer season and was quite remarkable!
Whenever I say that and list the movies of that summer, I often get a response of "Well that list isn't so great..."
I'm not saying it was the Summer of the best movies ever, that's a whole other debate (my vote is for summer 1984 anyway).
But... what I'm saying is not always the quality but just look at the sheer number of notable films!
Yeah, a lot of the entries from the iconic franchises were weak sauce that year (though a couple franchises had arguably their best entries of all) but in any case...just look at the amount of franchises that had an entry and just how iconic these franchises are, regardless if whether these particular entries were the close to the bottom points for some.
Then there were the stand alone movies like _Uncle Buck_ which _were_ high quality and became iconic (or at least a cult hit) just for the individual movies they are!
It wasn't *the* greatest movie Summer, but IMHO, it was _one of_ the greatest movie summers! There was a new movie to look forward to opening every weekend all summer long! Some were disappointments but plenty were not! It was just a great time to be young and a fan of going to the movies.
Just look at this list!
All these movies were theatrically released May 1st - August 31st, 1989:
TIm Burton's Batman
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
Ghostbusters II
Lethal Weapon 2
The Abyss
Dead Poets Society
Star Trek V: The Final Frontier
License To Kill (James Bond)
The Karate Kid, Part III
Great Balls Of Fire!
Spike Lee's Do the Right Thing
Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!
Uncle Buck
Parenthood
When Harry Met Sally
Turner & Hooch
UHF
Weekend At Bernies
Hear No Evil, See No Evil
Roadhouse
Casualties Of War
Millenium
Friday the 13th, Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan
A Nightmare On Elm Street 5: The Dream Child
I mean I think that's pretty incredible for just 1 summer!
And for _Uncle Buck_ to be such a hit in a full summer like that, it speaks extra on what a great movie this is!
And except for 6 of those movies _(The Abyss, Great Balls of Fire!, Do the Right Thing, Roadhouse, Friday the 13th VIII,_ and _Nightmare On Elm Street 5)_ I saw every one in the theater, _Batman_ and _Ghostbusters II_ I saw twice!
And if you noticed the two entries from iconic slasher films...know that _Halloween 5_ *also* came out in 1989, only (of course) that movie came out in October.
And it being the 80's...yep a _Police Academy_ movie was also released that year... _Police Academy 6: City Under Siege,_ but that came out in March.
Morgan Freeman also had a huge year, even bigger than Rick Moranis'. _Lean On Me, Glory,_ and _Driving Miss Daisy_ all came out in 1989, just none came out in the summer.
Sorry...such an interesting movie year I get carried away talking about it... 😳
Best Regards!
30:18 - The John Hughes movie I usually recommend first is "Some Kind of Wonderful" (1987). And the reason it's my go-to recommendation is the soundtrack. Oh, everyone in it is excellent acting-wise, and it's got some great lines lurking in the script, but the movie has the most awesome 80's new wave soundtrack of just about any movie that decade. I mean, one of the groups on the soundtrack is Lick the Tins, who sing "Can't Help Falling In Love" in the most un-Elvis way possible. That's actually meaningless; I just get a laugh out of the band's name. 🤣
Seriously, though... "Some Kind of Wonderful," starring Eric Stoltz, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Lea Thompson.
Very much this. SKoW is top tier for me, not only because I would watch Mary Stuart Masterson in just about anything :)
I'm down with this. It doesn't get any recognition and it should
Uncle Buck is my personal favorite John Hughes movie. ✌💯
That pause on John at the end... man, everytime.
you guys should watch the great outdoors with john candy and dan aykroyd so funny
Fun fact, the actor that played Bug, became a Baptist Pastor and was a Pastor here in my town up until a few years ago when he got a new job down in Southern California.
@@JW666 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jay_Underwood
Such a funny and heartfelt movie. Love John Candy😊
This is my second time watching this reaction and I have to say....Emily reacting to Uncle Buck is just Chef's Kiss perfection!!
"That's a good sign" when they called Buck in the night always makes me laugh. This movie is a favorite of mine lol. His car is a meme.
Fun fact: Here in Germany the movie was named "Allein mit Onkel Buck", so basically "(Home) Alone with uncle Buck", so a hommage to the Home Alone movies.
The Buck Melanoma scene is just hilarious. Wish you would've put more of that scene in.
This movie John Hughes realized Macaulay Culkin could carry a movie as the lead. He wrote 'Home Alone' w/MC in mind for the lead. John Candy was a great comedic actor, damn few professional comedians could stand toe to toe w/him. & This 9 year old actor damn near stole 'Uncle Buck's' movie out from under from him.😂
This is great, dang i miss John Candy. His movies were a crucial part of my childhood.
If I recall, the Uncle Buck set wasn't built in any old gymnasium, but it was actually the gym from The Breakfast Club. The Home Alone interiors were built there too. And the quickfire interrogation between Miles and Buck inspired the quizzing Kevin gets when he goes to buy groceries in Home Alone. As for Hughes, my faves are Ferris Bueller and The Breakfast Club, which I think you've seen. Adventures in Babysitting, directed by a post-Gremlins and Goonies but pre-Home Alone Chris Columbus, is fantastic.
John Candy was an amazing actor. My sister and I love hanging out and watching his movies and classic 80s and early 90s movies like this all the time.
It was very sad to hear about his death. He died of a heart attack in Durango Mexico while filming the wester comedy Wagons East.
John Candy was also in : Delirious -Only The Lonely - Nothing But Trouble - Who's Harry Crumb ? - The Great Outdoors - Little Shop Of Horror - Armed And Dangerous - Summer Rental - Volunteers - Heavy Metal the movie - STRIPES. Just a few of many 👌
Splash, and Volunteers, with Tom Hanks.
@@JayM409 that's why I put " A Few Of Many ". And let's not forget his SCTV years 🤙
Delirious is underated. Very well done.
@@JayM409 yes , John was also in Splash . Although his part in that movie wasn't that big. That's why I didn't put it on the list. I put movies where he had more of a bigger part .
Hands down my favorite John Candy movie.
I don't see "Adventures in Babysitting" anywhere on The List, so there's my suggestion. Lol. It's directed by Chris Columbus, from 1987.
We've both already seen that one, before the channel :)
@@JustSUMMReactions Fiiiiine. Maybe a ReWatch episode sometime. Lol.
Great editing. Great reaction video. My sister had a baby a year and a half ago, and I was watching this, I realized that I want to be Uncle Buck. 😊
Let the uncle Buck training begin 👍
A number of John Hughes-Chris Columbus movies were filmed in the upper middle class suburbs & cities north of Chicago. That is why they all look familiar. Adventures in Babysitting, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, The Breakfast Club, She's Having a Baby.
Lordy, this takes me back. I worked in a video rental store at the time this was out and "Uncle Buck" always got checked out every night. Always, without fail. Not like people ended up taking it home when the movie they wanted wasn't in, people came in asking for "Uncle Buck." Very popular movie.
As I recall, the high school where they shot this was closed at the time so they could do what they liked with the gym, and mock up the extra tiny urinals for the boys room scene, and use some of the classrooms for the young actors' lessons as well as makeup and wardrobe and stuff. The production basically took over the whole school and used it as a studio, which was not an unheard of thing once upon a time when a movie's locations were chosen in a place that didn't have any film facilities nearby. Wes Anderson tends to do this. For "The Grand Budapest Hotel" they found a derelict department store in Germany and made the huge central atrium into the hotel during its glory days. The top floors became the production offices and they could rebuild the space however they liked since the place was just standing empty when they came across it. Smart way to do it, I think.
I love this movie so much. Always worth a watch, no matter how many times I've seen it. UB's interactions with Bug make me die laughing every single time. That laugh he does! "You ever heard of a ritual killing? bhee hee hee hee" 🤣
This was a frequent pick for family movie nights when I was a kid. Man I miss those days!!
i love this movie. its funny, its heartwarming, and john candy is always a treasure.
This is definitely my favorite out of all the John Hughes directed movies. The second has to be Ferris Bueller. Such good movies.
Funny you should mention Home Alone. It was during the filming of the mail slot scene that John Hughes was inspired to write Home Alone, with Macaulay Culkin in the lead, of course.
Marcey is played by Laurie Metcalf who was Roseanne's sister, Jackie and later went on to become Mary Cooper, mother of Sheldon Cooper in The Big Bang Theory
My cousin Scott.and I saw this in the theater back in 89. It was a late show, or something else was going on in town, but we were the only people in the theater. That was a good thing, as we felt free to laugh as long and loud as we wanted.
John Candy just had thus genuine earnestness about him that endeared Buck to us. I don't think it would have carried as well with John Goodman.
Uncle Buck still holds up today.
I don't know why I like it so much but I enjoy the 'I'm a kid, that's my job' scene. A good film with plenty of laughs. Although I missed Matthew and Pippin of course, a really fun review. Thank you very much!
Uncle Buck was filmed in a gymnasium in the movie. The high school was abandoned. That’s why they filmed Ferris Bueller Day Off. The Breakfast Club, Home Alone and other John Hughes films were filmed m. The High School Glen Brook North is a police station now.
The next John Hughes movie you should do is She's Having A Baby with Elizabeth McGovern and Kevin Bacon- as a teenager I was absolutely obsessed with this movie- I even had the soundtrack - and it does take place in the same universe as Planes, Trains and Automobiles- on the old vhs of Planes, you can hear SHAB lead Kristy's "I'll have to burn the sheets," rant when Steve Martin's wife answers her phone - apparently they live next door to each other- so this is from 1989- the same year as Uncle Buck- and my husband and I still quote lines from it- I think one of the reasons I liked it was her name was spelled like mine, and it's so funny and touching - and has such good casting- Kevin Bacon really shines as a doofy guy in over his head - also I have to say you did a great job solo - keep up the good work!!!👏👏👏👏👏☺☺☺
Uncle Buck oh a truly kindred spirit. Love your reactions by the way, pura vida from Costa Rica
I love, love, love Matthew but it's been so amazing to be able to see you more than once a week recently!!!
The three houses used in 'Home Alone', 'Uncle Buck' and 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles' are located only a few miles apart from each other in the same outer area of Chicago.
Not just the interiors of this film´s house were build in a school gym... the same with Home Alone. I have to say, it was new for me they also did that here.
Oh I'm already LOVING this and it's not even started yet!! Such a beloved movie, I can't wait to watch again with you for the first time. Highlight of my whole day right here. Thank you so much for this.
The first time I watched this movie all the way through was in a hotel room in Bucharest (with subtitles). I learned my first Romanian swear word 😀 (La Naiba!)
I think you'd enjoy Jean Louisa Kelly (Tia) a bit more in Mr Holland's Opus (with Richard Dreyfus).
I always loved this movie. Funny and heartfelt.
I Hear Ya, Emily No Children I Don't Blame You,Same With Me
Because of this movie, every time I have problems opening something, door, box, jar, whatever. I say, "What I got to do, talk dirty to you "😂
"Marci" had emmys at home. Total talent.
Love this movie! John Candy was awesome! Still missed....R.I.P. John
The recurring theme, in the comments for all John Candy movie reactions, is what a HUGE talent he had and how much he is missed. It's now 30 years since his death and new generations continue to feel the same way simply through the medium of his movies.
Everyone should have an Uncle Buck
John Candy was a comedic treasure. I loved alot of his movies. This was one of my favorite movies. I never understood the daughters pure hatred of everyone though. The questioning part is the same as people in their 30s dating.
Buck! Bob? Buck! BOB?? BUCK!!...I'm over here thinkin' of shouting...WILLLMAAA!
The "Felix" joke always gets me 🤣
1. Many say Planes Trains and Automobiles but I say this was his best.
2. Of course it's Chicago. This is a John Hughes film.
3. Macaulay Culkin got the "Home Alone" gig because Landis loved him in this.
4. That's the same High School used by Hughes for "The Breakfast Club" and "Ferris Beuller's Day Off".
5. Making a stack of pancakes that big would take A LOT of work. 🙄(and money)
6. Tell me you didn't enjoy this. I dare you 😁
I think both John Candy and John Goodman got the roles that were right for them. Goodman is what Fred Flintstone would look like if he were a person, and Candy's deadpan comedy is what keeps the whole thing funny and not too serious. A rare example of Hollywood getting something right.
The Flintstones choice for Betty Rubble ruins any credit given for any other casting.
The interior home scenes in home Alone were built in the same high school gymnasium in Illinois. New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois.
As stated, Rick Moranis was offered the roll of Bob. Fun fact, In Ghostbusters, John Candy was offered the roll of Luis Tully, who ended up being played by Moranis. Candy wanted the roll, but had the wrong idea of the character. He was insisting on playing it with a thick German accent and have two German Shepherd dogs as well. The director didn't cast him Because he didn't understand the roll.
Moranis did well in that roll.
John Candy's daughter Jennifer Candy cites this as her favorite roll of her father's because she says this roll is closest to how he was in real life.
Oh my god i've just realised i'm the Uncle Buck of the family.
(But I absolutely love it)
My Brother: Stop spoiling my children!!!
Me: I'm their Uncle, that's my job.
Before I had kids, I imagined myself as a Danny Tanner type of dad... reality is more like Uncle Buck....
R.I.P To John Hughes & John Candy, Still Miss You, Guy's
I love Uncle Buck! Probably my favorite John Hughes movie. 😂 A real C U Next Tuesday 🤣 I've never heard that one before! I'm gonna use that one next chance I get 🙌🏼 Thank you for that!
Another GREAT John Candy one is Summer Rental. You will LOVE it.
this was the first film I saw in theaters myself. we had a theater within a 10 min bike ride just outside the little neighborhood i lived in. and their matinee prices were like $1. I was 9 at the time and was bored and wanted to see a movie, my parents didn't feel like going anywhere, but said I could go (they didn't question what i was seeing since they were open about me watching films anyway). I grabbed some change i had and rode over.
Glad I did cause i loved it. such a well done film, very funny. and I loved the car. lol
Rip To John Candy & John Hughes,We Still Miss You Guy's
The school they built all the sets in was an old school, no longer in use! John Hues used the same school for 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off' for the outside-of-the-school shots, interior sets built in the gym, and the classroom scenes! He used it for 'The Breakfast Club', too!
"Buck Melanoma, nice to meet ya!"
You should see the toast....I couldn't even get it through the door! lol
Buck melanoma
Maybe not a mother, but can totally see you as the favorite fun, "trouble maker" of an auntie. 😁
I loved John Candy. Such an amazing person. I have never seen him in a role I didn't absolutely adore. You should definitely give Who's Harry Crumb? a watch if you haven't already. He actually had me in tears in that one. Tears from laughing, tears from the pain of laughing too hard, and tears from snorting soda through my nose from laughing while in the middle of taking a drink
John Hughes had a thing for Chicago and the North Shore, where I grew up in the 80's. It always made his films more like home for us. I'm not sure his connection though, he was born in Michigan.
Note, in Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob went in search of Shermer Illinois based on the John Hughes films. There is no Shermer Illinois, but there is a Shermer Rd, which I've cruised for many hours in my teens.
Cameron wearing that Red Wings jersey is John Hughes showing his Michigan roots.
@@0okamino It's funny. I never put two thoughts together about why he wouldn't be wearing a Hawks jersey. It was just clothing to me. Thanks for pointing that out. 👍
When Hughes was in middle school, his family moved to a suburb of Chicago, where he met his future wife. They got married right out of high school and were together for nearly 40 years, until his death.
Sometime around Christmas you need to watch Last Holiday, starring Queen Latifa….. the script was originally written for John Candy and got rewritten for The Queen.
When filming fast questions scene's Macalay's half John Candy read Macalay's lines and kid just repeated them back so the scene could be filmed fast.
John Hughes sets all his movies around the Chicago area and if I remember correctly, the Home Alone house is the same one from Planes, Trains....
If you'd like another good John Candy movie with a heart-of-gold character you should watch The Great Outdoors (also has Dan Ackroyd in it)
Great Review!! The next John Hughes movie should be "Dutch" starring Ed O'Neal. 😊
Yes! My favorite Thanksgiving movie.
Yes, I love Dutch. Such an underrated film.
When this movie came out, I was so used to Jay Underwood playing really nice, wholesome roles, I almost couldn’t believe his character could actually be that bad. It was a trip seeing him play a jerk like Bug, and sink his teeth into that role so well.
Agreed! Remember him in the movie "The Boy Who Could Fly"? The part he played in that is a polar opposite to 'Bug'.
@@Scottie_S Also, he was very endearing and adorable as the teenage android 'Chip' in Disney's *_Not Quite Human_* trilogy.
I have a theory, Buck was a professional assassin, that's why he never had a job or family. He probably trained John Wick.
Edit - I'm serious, rewatch Uncle Buck and imagine that his secret life is a professional hitman. Watch how easily he threatens people and has all the tools available to carry it out, the hatchet, the drill, saying he'd hunt down the school principal, all what a pro assassin would do on a week off babysitting.
I love, love, love this movie! After my two boys came on the scene, they have heard the "ritual killing" laugh more than they have any right to, lol.
This movie is one of the first times we see Macaulay Caulkin and nails it
It is so much fun watching you react! You have such a good time!
Jean Louisa Kelly played Tia Russell, which was her first movie roll. You should watch her in "Mr. Holland's Opus" (1995). (also starring Richard Dreyfuss) She is an excellent singer! She's been happily married for 35 years so she can't be that mean! Her husband is the CEO of ESPN. They have 2 kids, 17 and 20! You probably caught a glimpse of her in "Maverick".
God how I miss John Candy. He died WAY too soon. Such a funny man.
Unbreakable...just not un-Buckable...oh the dad humor...
Great job on the review Emily. This film is hysterical. The huge pancake scene is my favorite in the film. lol Fun Fact: Anna Chlumsky who starred in My Girl with MacCaulay Culkin was in this film and it was her Debut. She was the girl sitting next to Maizy (little girl in the film) in the classroom.
One of my favorite movies. Thanks for a great reaction/review Emily
A John Candy movie not talked about much is Only The Lonely which is really good, a bit of a rom com in a quirky way with him. Also a John Hughes produced film done by Chris Columbus.
With John Candy and Emily we got widows’ peaks in stereo.
Nailed the review as usual. Keep up the great work. You 2 are excellent at this. Much love.
oh thank god, John Candy was 49 when Uncle Buck came out.... I almost freaked out at the brother saying Buck was 40 and me wondering how on earth I'm now older than he was :o
You mean 39.
@@roaringviking5693well now i'm sad and i can't subtract
Hi Em, nice choice. Family Friendly Fare and a fine movie. Bless you and yours
"Another word for Balls"... I'm Partial to "The Dangling Giggleberries" myself (Got it from a movie about a pastry).
