Gotta be honest Scott, when I first found your channel I thought it'd have millions of subs, when I saw the actual count I was stunned, your humor and video format is off thar charts and I can tell your gonna make it big one of these days, keep grinding Mr. Cramer!
Ya know, Scott, one of these days I'd love to see you pull a fast one on us with the sponsorship segment. Maybe something like "(Standing by your bed, in a similar framing to the ad read in this video) Speaking of beds, you know what one of my favorite activities is? Crawling into my nice cozy warm bed (yall are expecting a helix sponsorship message at this point) after a nice filling dinner from today's sponsor, (pull out the box) Hello Fresh!(bam! hit em with the plot twist! Keep on their toes)"
I love the blues brothers and honestly had no clue it was a direct spin off of NSL. It's one of my favourite movies and I grew up watching it all the time. I'll never forget the first time my dad put it on warning me it's full of swearing. I expected some boring drama movie because usually if my parents put on a movie just for them it was lame at that age (I was 8.) I was fucking blown away, and it is even better as an adult. Classic movie and wish more people my age knew it.
@@carlitosway471 that movie full on fucking traumatized me as a kid. I couldn't stop crying I was so scared of them. I picked it out at blockbuster thinking the cover looked fun, my mom heard it was funny so thought we could try it out. She was disgusted by the humour, between that and my crying we turned it off after 30 minutes. I had nightmares for weeks about the dad unhinging his jaw and eating my feet.
when i was a kid i had a HUGE phobia of coneheads, my stepdad had the dvd and the cover scared me so much that every time i saw it on the shelf i would break down in sobs. i'd completely forgotten about both the movie and the fear, probably repressed into the dark creases of my brain. but thanks to this video i know that that phobia is still very much alive. so thank u for that scott!
Oh my god I had something sorta similar 😭😭 when I was little me and my mom would go to the dvd rental place and every time I’d walk past the coneheads dvd and it scared me so bad I swear
I'm a huge Blues Brother fan. HUGE. Your comment about waiting for a punchline is funny because it just shows how much SNL has changed. If you watch the original season, SNL wasn't strictly a comedy series. It was a variety show. We still see remnants of this with the musical guests, but the Blues brothers weren't the only more serious act to go on. SNL also offered George Carlin the opportunity to host full time, they were very much experimental in the old days. From the perspective of someone who is familiar with SNL looking back I can totally see why you would be expecting a joke or something, but watching it at the time we didn't really know what to expect. The show was so fun and weird and experimental back then, and they eventually just settled into sketch comedy
I think the comedic aspect about the Blues Brothers movie was the deadpan delivery. The most ridiculous crap would happen and they’d just keep moving on as if it wasn’t a surprise. I didn’t grow up with old SNL but they way that the movie provided slapstick comedy in the most serious delivery was truly amazing. Not to mention, the songs were 🔥
@@StayEmilino it's an all time great movie IMO. I still watch it all the time. It always kills me when they're in this giant chase scene with cops through the mall and they're just commenting on all the new stores that have come in.
@@bananawitchcraftWhat they meant was that George Carlin didn’t host the way hosts work today. He wasn’t in any sketches, he just came out and did some standup 4 or 5 times throughout the show.
Ted Lasso being a 3-season spin-off from an NBC Sports ad skit was mesmerizing. I hope the process of what they did to Ted Lasso should be applied to doing these SNL skits-to-movie installments
I might be wrong, but I remember in the snl oral history, I think Lorne Michaels mentioned that nobody liked the idea for a movie, but nobody could stop Julia Sweeney from making it because she owned the character. It is the only snl movie that isn't produced by universal or paramount and the only one where Lorne Michaels is not credited as a producer
Coneheads, as with a lot of these SNL movies, definitely falls into the “had to have been there” category and is also an acquired taste. I was about 15 when it came out and it was kinda perfect timing. Beavis & Butthead, Wayne’s World, Dumb and Dumber…all very nostalgic for me.
when i was little my family used to go to a local video store all the time... they always had coneheads out on vhs/dvd and the cover scared me every time we walked past it
Superstar was one of my favorites as a kid. I didn’t even have a concept of it being an SNL spin off, just really loved it. I’m sure it didn’t age well but it’s very nostalgic for me
@@nicholas7695the superstar sketches in SNL were so bad to begin with, they literally let Molly Shannon do any crap she wanted on SNL those years after they fired Sandler, Farley etc, there was barely any quality control, and the movie Superstar is equally worthless, absolute disaster
A Night at the Roxbury is actually my favorite movie 😭 the music, the aesthetic, the nostalgia of watching it as a kid, and I feel like I catch a new funny little joke every time I watch it
Born in '88. Superstar and night at the roxburry were considered classics by the time I was old enough to watch that kind of content. I distinctly remember kids at my school doing the "smell my pits" bit from superstar in grade school. That shit was the height of comedy in suburban Canada in 1999.
I was born 8/8/88! 88 babies! But I'm confused because Superstar came out when we're in middle school..how was it considered a classic? I remember my friends went to see it without me (I was pissed) and they said I was the superstar chic (something I would be honored to have the title of now because I LOVE that actress) but I was very insulted back then. My "friends" were asshole bullies. Middle schoolers period are assholes. It came out in either 6th or 7th grade..I forget which year it was. I block a lot of that time out! Edit: ohhh..you meant the show 😂 my bad, I was still at the beginning and didn't even think about the show! I think the bullies traumatised me and now when I hear Superstar, I only remember the movie 😂
Blues Brothers were so popular that there was a live sizes model of the two, like fully 3d, just.. in my local Fuddruckers for no reason at all. Before it closed, that is.
Blues Brothers is a classic. It's not as silly as all the other skits. Some of the greatest car chase sequences ever put to film and some genuinely great musical acts.
Coneheads became an inside joke in my family, not because we ever saw it, but it was always displayed prominently in our local VideoEazy and my little sister was terrified of the front cover of the DVD
Dude, memory unlocked.. I remember constantly seeing Pat on blockbuster shelves as a kid, and it was my mom's name so I always looked at it. And I was always like "wtf.."
Blues Brothers was one of my all time favorite movies in my preteen years. As a teenager, I used to ask girls I liked if they wanted to come over and watch Blues Brothers with me as a pick up line
I love the shout out to Jake and Amir!! Cause that was something I rewatched over and over and over when I was younger. Used to make me cry laughing and nobody else I knew watched it! Haha
Speaking as someone who grew up in the Chicago suburbs in the 1980s, the Blues Brothers was absolutely a movie everyone had seen. It's still very well-regarded around these parts, as it was one of the first films really shot in (and showing off) Chicago. It's one of those films people would quote and everyone would pick up on it (especially, "It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of glass, a half-pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses." The backup band was a legimatiely solid band, too. Lead guitarist Steve Cropper and bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn played on a bunch of '60s soul classics (including Soul Man, which you refer to in the video). The Blues Brothers band was basically a bunch of ace session musicians who in the 1970s formed a band that became the SNL band (under Paul Schaffer), and then became the Blues Brothers Band (just without Paul Schaffer).
I think with the blues brothers it’s iconic because it’s a watchable musical, the characters are iconic, the music is good and the people playing the characters were such great casting. I don’t know how but the blues brothers became a Christmas movie for my family. It’s such a good movie and they incorporated humour into the movie. Now blues brothers 2 was a choice, and that’s all I’ll say. It was a choice
The days of SNL characters being iconic Country wide figures are far gone but back in the 80s and 90s each successful sketch was known in every office an school yard in the country. Everyone from little kids to elderly people quoted them and at least had a passing knowledge of who the characters were. That's what made the few movies that worked successful. I don't think that magic could be recaptured
Yeah, it does feel like a bygone era now…. Damn, that makes me feel old 😂 Too much media available now for anything to be so uniformly culturally significant. Kinda miss that, the nostalgia is great though. Back in my day (walking to school, in the snow, uphill both ways, etc), we had NBC, ABC, CBS (Fox had a come up with Married w/ Children and BH90210), and super basic cable, so we were all watching the same things. Makes for great nostalgic moments for us elder millennials, but it’s a rarity these days… I’d say GoT came close, kind of The Soprano’s level, everyone’s talking about it the day after. I think having whole season drop at once also makes a difference, it’s 1 time hype vs. 10 weeks of hype. Episodic dropped shows just take more space in our memories, individually and collectively. And before that, they legit had 3 channels that just shut off at like 10pm, at least I had reruns of Roseanne and Night Court to keep me up, lol.
I think that’s more because there were fewer things to watch. The same way EVERYONE watched American Idol; in the early seasons, you would show up to work/school the day after an episode aired, and everyone would be talking about it. That doesn’t happen at all today with basically any TV show, because of the sheer quantity of shows out there to watch.
I feel it's like how professional wrestling is now as well. Think back to the 80s and 90s and maybe early 2000s if you grew up then. I never watched wrestling at all, but I still knew most of them just from culture osmosis. Try to ask me now about current pro wrestlers and I'd have no idea. Does SNL even still have recurring character sketches?
Night at the Roxbury was iconic and the plot was ONLY trying to get into the club. And the quotables, “but there’s no HBO!”, “EMILIOOOOO”, “your brothers? No? Yees!?”
The Blues Brothers and Night at the Roxbury are some of my favorite movies of all time let alone SNL spin-offs. They will always make me laugh and bring back fond memories.
I love It's Pat and I mean this totally unironically, have seen it over 5 times now and it always delights me. Something about the complete failure of every joke just brings a smile to my face... nothing works and I find it so endearing
I can't believe Wayne's World 2 only grossed $48m at the box office. I love Wayne's World 2, maybe even more than the original. Also: it's absolutely bonkers that Night at the Roxbury is legitimately in the top 5 of all the movies based on SNL sketches, but here we are.
I love a night at the Roxbury. I’m 21 and grew up watching it and everyone I know can’t stand watching it besides my sister and I. It honestly makes me sad bc it’s like it’s so bad that it’s good type beat. A part of me feels like I enjoy it so much bc I wish I could experience the night life of the 80’s. 80’s music is top tier and idc where I am if an 80’s dance song comes on, best believe I’m busting a move😂😂
SNL movies only go one of two ways. They're either absolutely hilarious and will forever be a classic or they are just absolute garbage water. There's not a single SNL movie that you watch and think, "Yeah I mean..that was alright I guess."
I don’t think I was aware of the Blues Brothers being an SNL skit. It is one of my favorite movies of all time though! I heard the music before seeing the movie and I heard the music from a soundtrack CD my dad had. It’s one of his favorite movies too.
No idea if it would hold up if I rewatched it, but I was obsessed with Coneheads when I was little. I was about 3 when it came out and I think probably the last time I watched it, I would have been between 7-10. Some of the stuff I loved when I was a kid still holds up (Jurassic Park) but I may take a look at Coneheads again and just find that it was one of those things that was only funny as a child
Same, I'm always refencing Jake and Amir and nobody else gets it lol. I'm honestly amazed it hasn't gotten more attention given how frequently they had Ben Shwartz on before he became big. And he still almost weekly interacts with Amir on twitter. T'was a shame it doesn't get more props.
You are joking right? Or do you just not know what SNL is? They make thousands of sketches and some hit and some don't. Someone decided coneheads might be funny and it became a very popular sketch. With thousands of sketches they aren't spending months refining character designs....come on.
If you've never heard anyone talk about "The Blues Brothers" you've never been to Chicago. Chicago LOVES the Blues Brothers. It's part of the fabric of the city. You could walk into any restaurant in Chicago and pretend to order 5 whole fried chickens and a coke and they'd more than likely get the reference.
I did not realise until now that Blues Brothers had anything to do with SNL. I'm from Europe and it's been randomly on tv since I can remember. As you might imagine SNL doesn't air in other countries like it does in the US. But somehow that movie is one of those movies that you watched as a kid cause it just was on the tv on a sunday afternoon.
The Blues Brothers is so good. It was a childhood movie for me and honestly I just learned today that this was an SNL spinoff. So the more you know. I can tell you it's a very beloved movie. It's very popular and I'm not even american. So I'd say it branched out internationally.
The Blues Brothers is genuinely one of the funniest movies I've ever seen, especially since I grew up in Chicago and a lot of the jokes involve Chicago references. Would definitely recommend watching it if you haven't!
I'm an aussie, and I watched both Waynes World and Coneheads as a kid and only learned that SNL is a thing on the internet as a teenager. So from my perspective, SNL is a spinoff of Coneheads
Shocked you didn't mention the band Ween being stars in It's Pat, for no good reason other than the fact that the director really liked them. I think more people know of that movie because of the Ween cameo than because of the sketches.
@@FrenkTheJoy they are probably most well known for making Ocean Man that plays in the credits of the spongebob movie. Stephen Hillenberg was inspired to make spongebob partially because of their album The Mollusk which ocean man is on. They also did the Loop de Loop and pull song that was written for an episode of spongebob. Genuinely a really cool and interesting band aside from spongebob. Lots of great songs.
There's actually TWELVE movies based on SNL sketches. You missed one. Office Space. Yes, Office Space was based on an *animated* sketch by Mike Judge on SNL centering around the character "Milton" (yes, the character that Stephen Root plays in the movie.)
My dad showed me this movie when I was around 9 years old. I loved it ever since. Especially the Car Chase Scene! That was amazing work and so many cars wasted! It was Awesome!! Rest in Peace John Belushi.
Superstar was my FAVORITE movie when I was little, I LOVED Coneheads, Blues Bros.... yeah, I like a lot of those silly movies. Lol but there's definitely a few I'd never even heard of! Loved this video, thanks!
I'm younger than you and blues brother is the movie of my childhood. I quote it to this day. One time I learned that none of my friends had seen it and I just made all of them watch it on the spot.
Fun fact: Quentin Tarantino wrote an uncredited polish on It’s Pat: The Movie. He’s good friends with Julia Sweeney and he worked on the script as a favor to her. In return, she appeared briefly in Pulp Fiction
Goes to show how popular that it’s pat movie is because I just discovered the skits not too long ago and just now found out they made a movie about them!
Believe it or not this is the first time I'm seeing anything from SNL. I've literally never seen a single skit or episode of SNL. Only hearing about it negatively from commentary videos lol
SNL's early years were just... Like that. Garrett Morris also sang often, classical and Christmas music. A sketch with Eric Idle just stops early when everybody makes fun of his accent. Those first five years are fantastic TV.
As someone born and raised in the Chicago burbs, sometimes I forget that there are people who haven't seen The Blues Brothers! It is for sure worth a watch if you haven't seen it!
I miss that cultural connectivity. There’s far too much available media now to experience it now. Things like GoT is probably as close as we’ve gotten… especially with single episode drops going extinct. Chicago born and raised…. I thought everyone knew lines from the Blues Brothers… these 2 are the biggies: “We’re getting the band back together”. “We’re on a mission from God.” It was made before I was born, but I definitely saw this as a kid, probably as a WGN Sat or Sun movie (it was a thing) in the 90’s, played tons of 80’s movies. Kevin Bacon was in most of them. Wayne’s World, “camera one, camera two”. The memories. Thanks for this video. The nostalgia hit hard. Idk why I associate Coneheads with that Pauly Shore farmer movie (🎵Boot Scootin Boogie!!!) but I do. Side note: Pauly Shore movies would make another great video. Some weird shit.
Mine too! I didn't realize it lost so much money at the box office, and that most ppl didn't like it... I guess I've been living under a rock with my fond Conehead memories. I catch major feels every time I hear Kodachrome on the radio.
Idk if this fits the criteria but there was a digital short in 2016(?) called Office Christmas Party where Pete Davidson rapped about the awkwardness of holiday work parties. It got turned into a movie with celebrity main characters and the SNL cast as supporting characters. I never saw it but I vaguely remember trailers for it
The "sketch": Dan aykroyd and John Belushi singing The movie: have you ever seen such greatness that if anything made a higher box office than it you think that they're rigged?
You know MacGruber is a fucking gem when Christopher Nolan calls it one of his all time favourite films. He won't even stop talking about the film to his cast members whilst shooting his films. I know the film is not for everyone, but my god the film has some scenes were me and friends had to almost go to A&E, for laughing so hard that we stopped breathing and almost crushed our ribs.
I only know Wayne's World because my parents loved it when they were my age. My least favorite middle school teacher also dressed as the blonde one every year for Halloween, a partner costume with my favorite dean. I never understood the appeal.
Idk why but I have watched The Blues Brothers every Christmas with my mom’s family since I was 9 years old. Every time we watch it my uncles always say something about the area the movie was shot in on the Southside and which parts of downtown they did filming in. Heck, after the movie was finished filming since they trashed all the cop cars the Chicago police department got the Crown Vic’s soon after.
Listen, nobody saw It's Pat at theaters, but it did ok as a rental. It wasn't good at all, but when you're old enough to rent movies non-R rated movies under your parents account and not old enough to drive it's amazing what will seem like a good idea.
"The characters' humor derives from three sources: 1) their manner of speech; 2) their strange behavior; and 3) the casual acceptance of the first two by their neighbors and associates" I'm just going to say it: Coneheads walked so that Borat could run.
Blues Brothers was such a classic movie that it transcended its origins. A lot of people who love the movie don't even mention SNL. They just love the movie.
Fun fact, sorry if maybe someone else has already posted this but Bill Harder spoke about being asked to write a Stefon movie and he explains when interviewed on the podcast Fly on the Wall with David spade & Dana Carvey Harder said exactly what you said... A sketch doesn't work as a movie. Thanks for the video, as always I love it!
I don't even consider those to be sketches. Stefon is a side piece for the Weekend Update portion of SNL. In my opinion, they should do away with all of the interviews. I never consider them funny. It's possible they were in the '70s and '80s.
@@NicoAnimation they were really understanding. Check out the podcast to hear the details. I think it was about understanding that a bit or a sketch doesn't always translate to a movie and that's okay.
Blues Brothers is so pointless plot-wise and yet you feel along for the ride for the nonsense they’re going through. Truly love the movie because it’s a perfect deadpan comedy to me.
@@StayEmilino i agree, i just love how determinate and especially seirous the Jake and elwood were, hell even at the end when they are faced by like a million guns and arrested they are barely faced
@@StayEmilino I think what only enhanced the film, ironically, was all the behind-the-scenes drama that was actually going on in the late stages of the film's production. "The Blues Brothers" is one of those rare films where the behind-the-scenes spectacle is equally as fascinating and telling as the film itself between its early screenplay and budget complications, to Belushi's cocaine-infused escapades and grappling with addiction, to having to secure all those cars they destroyed over the course of the film, all the way up to a knee injury Belushi suffered late in the film's production and actually going so far as to anesthetize it just so that they can film him complete the scene. When you take all of that in, it probably enriched the sense of urgency and determinism on their part to see this project through to completion adversity be damned, and in turn it just makes all the nonsense all the more captivating and authentic. It's just a crying shame that Belushi lost his battle with addiction shortly after the film's completion is all.
@@StayEmilino I think the original commenter is explaining the humor of the SNL "skits" with the blues Brothers, not the movie. As Scott had a hard time deciphering the humor of their SNL apparences specifically.
@@FTChomp9980 Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger, can I take your order? but my favorite Kel line is "Who loves orange soda?" but it's from a totally different sketch
Blues Brothers still has a strong cultural hold in Chicago. After Sox games they play their cover of Sweet Home Chicago, people quote it all the time and so on. Also, the people in the band were in the SNL band so it was cool to see those guys act in the movie and play. Genuinely great musicians.
Grew up in Aurora and so Wayne’s World and Blues Brothers are classics to me. Same with Ferris Bueller. Chicagoans love movies about our city so it’s no surprise we supported these two were so successful especially with SNL’s Second City history.
@@StayEmilino have to throw in the rest of the John Hughes Chicago area films… The Breakfast Club, Uncle Buck, Home Alone, Sixteen Candles. Classics. I’ll even throw Curly Sue a bone, lol.
I honestly had no idea that Blues Brothers was snl inspired. It is one of favorite movies of all time. Probably my favorite comedy, highly recommend. The music is great, there is surprisingly awesome car chases and great comedy
Came here to say this. Although I knew it was from a sketch (admittedly from Drake and Josh lol) it is still an objectively good film. Definitely the best musical comedy film imho.
You briefly showed Ted Lasso at the end when talking about just the cast members going on to other projects, but what is interesting is that the character of Ted Lasso is also based on a sketch just not an SNL one. A few years ago Jason Sudeikis did a sketch for NBC, who were promoting soccer games coming to their platform. It was like a 7 minute sketch featuring this new character called Ted Lasso. In fact, a few of the jokes from that sketch also made their way into the TV show.
At first, I was hesitant because I knew it was based on a commercial so I waited to start watching the show until the whole first season out and I got to read some reviews to see if it was worth it. Well, the answer is definitely yes. It's amazing.
Its probably because I didnt grow up in the US but I didnt realize the Blues Bros was an SNL movie. Amazing film that, and with what remains one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.
i grew up in the US and my dad is both a fan of old SNL and adores the blues brothers and i didn’t know it was an SNL movie. so it’s probably not your fault
That movie was a stoner classic. I saw that movie and laughed my ass off and that fact they got the guy from deadwood to play his step dad.. I wasn't a much fan of coneheads and ladies man.
There goes my afternoon snack

Born in '88. Superstar and night at the roxburry were considered classics by the time I was old enough to watch that kind of content. I distinctly remember kids at my school doing the "smell my pits" bit from superstar in grade school. That shit was the height of comedy in suburban Canada in 1999.
I was born 8/8/88! 88 babies! But I'm confused because Superstar came out when we're in middle school..how was it considered a classic? I remember my friends went to see it without me (I was pissed) and they said I was the superstar chic (something I would be honored to have the title of now because I LOVE that actress) but I was very insulted back then. My "friends" were asshole bullies. Middle schoolers period are assholes. It came out in either 6th or 7th grade..I forget which year it was. I block a lot of that time out! Edit: ohhh..you meant the show 😂 my bad, I was still at the beginning and didn't even think about the show! I think the bullies traumatised me and now when I hear Superstar, I only remember the movie 😂
Blues Brothers were so popular that there was a live sizes model of the two, like fully 3d, just.. in my local Fuddruckers for no reason at all. Before it closed, that is.
Blues Brothers is a classic. It's not as silly as all the other skits. Some of the greatest car chase sequences ever put to film and some genuinely great musical acts.
Coneheads became an inside joke in my family, not because we ever saw it, but it was always displayed prominently in our local VideoEazy and my little sister was terrified of the front cover of the DVD
FUN FACT: Blues Brothers held the world record for most cars destroyed in a film, however, Blues Brothers 2000 broke the record by one car.
I read "blue's brothers" as "blue's clues" at first! Lol! I must be tired!
Dude, memory unlocked.. I remember constantly seeing Pat on blockbuster shelves as a kid, and it was my mom's name so I always looked at it. And I was always like "wtf.."
Blues Brothers was one of my all time favorite movies in my preteen years. As a teenager, I used to ask girls I liked if they wanted to come over and watch Blues Brothers with me as a pick up line
I love the shout out to Jake and Amir!! Cause that was something I rewatched over and over and over when I was younger. Used to make me cry laughing and nobody else I knew watched it! Haha
Tears of soy!
Night at the Roxbury has a killer soundtrack even if you don't like the film
Superstar was one of my all time favorite movies when I was younger, and I still have a sweet spot for it. But Wayne’s World is an all time banger.
Speaking as someone who grew up in the Chicago suburbs in the 1980s, the Blues Brothers was absolutely a movie everyone had seen. It's still very well-regarded around these parts, as it was one of the first films really shot in (and showing off) Chicago. It's one of those films people would quote and everyone would pick up on it (especially, "It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of glass, a half-pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."
The backup band was a legimatiely solid band, too. Lead guitarist Steve Cropper and bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn played on a bunch of '60s soul classics (including Soul Man, which you refer to in the video). The Blues Brothers band was basically a bunch of ace session musicians who in the 1970s formed a band that became the SNL band (under Paul Schaffer), and then became the Blues Brothers Band (just without Paul Schaffer).
The blues brothers movie is honestly incredible. It’s so funny throughout its entire runtime plus the cast is great
I think with the blues brothers it’s iconic because it’s a watchable musical, the characters are iconic, the music is good and the people playing the characters were such great casting. I don’t know how but the blues brothers became a Christmas movie for my family. It’s such a good movie and they incorporated humour into the movie. Now blues brothers 2 was a choice, and that’s all I’ll say. It was a choice
The days of SNL characters being iconic Country wide figures are far gone but back in the 80s and 90s each successful sketch was known in every office an school yard in the country. Everyone from little kids to elderly people quoted them and at least had a passing knowledge of who the characters were. That's what made the few movies that worked successful. I don't think that magic could be recaptured
Yeah, it does feel like a bygone era now…. Damn, that makes me feel old 😂 Too much media available now for anything to be so uniformly culturally significant. Kinda miss that, the nostalgia is great though.
Back in my day (walking to school, in the snow, uphill both ways, etc), we had NBC, ABC, CBS (Fox had a come up with Married w/ Children and BH90210), and super basic cable, so we were all watching the same things. Makes for great nostalgic moments for us elder millennials, but it’s a rarity these days… I’d say GoT came close, kind of The Soprano’s level, everyone’s talking about it the day after. I think having whole season drop at once also makes a difference, it’s 1 time hype vs. 10 weeks of hype. Episodic dropped shows just take more space in our memories, individually and collectively.
And before that, they legit had 3 channels that just shut off at like 10pm, at least I had reruns of Roseanne and Night Court to keep me up, lol.
I think that’s more because there were fewer things to watch. The same way EVERYONE watched American Idol; in the early seasons, you would show up to work/school the day after an episode aired, and everyone would be talking about it. That doesn’t happen at all today with basically any TV show, because of the sheer quantity of shows out there to watch.
I feel it's like how professional wrestling is now as well. Think back to the 80s and 90s and maybe early 2000s if you grew up then. I never watched wrestling at all, but I still knew most of them just from culture osmosis. Try to ask me now about current pro wrestlers and I'd have no idea.
Does SNL even still have recurring character sketches?
David S. Pumpkins, though??
@@FrenkTheJoy definitely not David S Pumpkins, lol. He’s not a character as much as a caricature.
Night at the Roxbury was iconic and the plot was ONLY trying to get into the club. And the quotables, “but there’s no HBO!”, “EMILIOOOOO”, “your brothers? No? Yees!?”
Haddaway's “What Is Love” is a god tier dance track and the one thing people like/remember about A Night at the Roxbury
Coneheads is one of the movies that gets played a few times a year at my house. It’s a hit in our family.
The Blues Brothers and Night at the Roxbury are some of my favorite movies of all time let alone SNL spin-offs. They will always make me laugh and bring back fond memories.
I love It's Pat and I mean this totally unironically, have seen it over 5 times now and it always delights me. Something about the complete failure of every joke just brings a smile to my face... nothing works and I find it so endearing
Julia Sweeney is pretty great honestly, she has a lot of charm and is generally likeable
Wayne's World is the greatest movie ever made and definitely oozes the 90s.
Lol it was awesome, but the greatest? Eh..if you added more specifications like genre and time, maybe top 3.
Hey I like my comedies to me at least it's up there with Billy Madison!
Any time lonely island came on I used to get so hyped… crazy they based the movie “Cast Away” off of them
Not as crazy when you think about how the US runs its entire government based on the SNL president sketches
100%
I can't believe Wayne's World 2 only grossed $48m at the box office. I love Wayne's World 2, maybe even more than the original. Also: it's absolutely bonkers that Night at the Roxbury is legitimately in the top 5 of all the movies based on SNL sketches, but here we are.
I’ve recently been thinking about my love for SNL movies and this is exactly what I needed Scott
I love a night at the Roxbury. I’m 21 and grew up watching it and everyone I know can’t stand watching it besides my sister and I. It honestly makes me sad bc it’s like it’s so bad that it’s good type beat. A part of me feels like I enjoy it so much bc I wish I could experience the night life of the 80’s. 80’s music is top tier and idc where I am if an 80’s dance song comes on, best believe I’m busting a move😂😂
It’s based on the 90’s club scene/music but totally get where you’re coming from.
You’ll have a blast if you turn on a 90’s eurodance playlist lol
@@thecreatedvoid117 omg, I thought it was the 80’s for some reason😂😂😂that makes a lot more sense tho
I will say, Coneheads includes the high-key best version of Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You by Morten Harket (the lead singer of A-Ha)
It’s always great hearing someone bring up Jake and Amir
SNL movies only go one of two ways. They're either absolutely hilarious and will forever be a classic or they are just absolute garbage water. There's not a single SNL movie that you watch and think, "Yeah I mean..that was alright I guess."
I don’t think I was aware of the Blues Brothers being an SNL skit. It is one of my favorite movies of all time though! I heard the music before seeing the movie and I heard the music from a soundtrack CD my dad had. It’s one of his favorite movies too.
You put some RESPECT on Night at the Roxbury's name!
No idea if it would hold up if I rewatched it, but I was obsessed with Coneheads when I was little. I was about 3 when it came out and I think probably the last time I watched it, I would have been between 7-10. Some of the stuff I loved when I was a kid still holds up (Jurassic Park) but I may take a look at Coneheads again and just find that it was one of those things that was only funny as a child
I honestly never knew that Blues Brothers was based off SNL. I just know that my parents were big fans of it and made me watch the movie.
Admittedly I learned about the Blues Brothers through watching Drake & Josh
Scott Cramer mentioning that Jake and Amir was some of his favorite stuff back in the day just made my morning
Same, I'm always refencing Jake and Amir and nobody else gets it lol. I'm honestly amazed it hasn't gotten more attention given how frequently they had Ben Shwartz on before he became big. And he still almost weekly interacts with Amir on twitter. T'was a shame it doesn't get more props.
I have never heard of them. But I haven't watched SNL regularly since the mid 90's.
Scott thank you so much for uploading so frequently lately. I love you brother
If you would've told me that teenagers and young adults would fight the world to become Pat when I was a kid I would've never believed it.
The blues brothers is a generational classic, it’s funny, it’s got music, it’s got getting the band back together. There’s nothing you could want more
My mom who was born in the 80's loves the Blues Brothers. I watched it all the time growing up.
How on earth did the design for Coneheads get passed so many people?!
You are joking right? Or do you just not know what SNL is? They make thousands of sketches and some hit and some don't. Someone decided coneheads might be funny and it became a very popular sketch. With thousands of sketches they aren't spending months refining character designs....come on.
I'm from the UK. We don't get SNL, so I had no idea any of these films were spin offs from it! You learn something everyday
I never knew that the blues brothers was based on an snl skit, but from what I’ve seen of it it’s a classic!
If you've never heard anyone talk about "The Blues Brothers" you've never been to Chicago. Chicago LOVES the Blues Brothers. It's part of the fabric of the city. You could walk into any restaurant in Chicago and pretend to order 5 whole fried chickens and a coke and they'd more than likely get the reference.
I had NO clue that Blues Brothers was in any way based off SNL. It is much beloved in my family and was just introduced to me as a classic.
I did not realise until now that Blues Brothers had anything to do with SNL. I'm from Europe and it's been randomly on tv since I can remember. As you might imagine SNL doesn't air in other countries like it does in the US. But somehow that movie is one of those movies that you watched as a kid cause it just was on the tv on a sunday afternoon.
The Blues Brothers is so good. It was a childhood movie for me and honestly I just learned today that this was an SNL spinoff. So the more you know. I can tell you it's a very beloved movie. It's very popular and I'm not even american. So I'd say it branched out internationally.
My Blues Brothers soundtrack on vinyl is one of my prized possessions.
The Blues Brothers is genuinely one of the funniest movies I've ever seen, especially since I grew up in Chicago and a lot of the jokes involve Chicago references. Would definitely recommend watching it if you haven't!
I'm an aussie, and I watched both Waynes World and Coneheads as a kid and only learned that SNL is a thing on the internet as a teenager. So from my perspective, SNL is a spinoff of Coneheads
Shocked you didn't mention the band Ween being stars in It's Pat, for no good reason other than the fact that the director really liked them. I think more people know of that movie because of the Ween cameo than because of the sketches.
I absolutely love Ween, any content I can get from them is appreciated
Meanwhile I am only familiar with Pat and don't know what Ween is.
@@FrenkTheJoy they are probably most well known for making Ocean Man that plays in the credits of the spongebob movie. Stephen Hillenberg was inspired to make spongebob partially because of their album The Mollusk which ocean man is on. They also did the Loop de Loop and pull song that was written for an episode of spongebob. Genuinely a really cool and interesting band aside from spongebob. Lots of great songs.
I'm 26, grew up watching the blues brothers on VCR religiously. Never knew it was an SNL skit and I'm honestly just sitting here lost and confused 😅😅
There's actually TWELVE movies based on SNL sketches. You missed one.
Office Space.
Yes, Office Space was based on an *animated* sketch by Mike Judge on SNL centering around the character "Milton" (yes, the character that Stephen Root plays in the movie.)
My dad showed me this movie when I was around 9 years old. I loved it ever since. Especially the Car Chase Scene! That was amazing work and so many cars wasted! It was Awesome!! Rest in Peace John Belushi.
Superstar was my FAVORITE movie when I was little, I LOVED Coneheads, Blues Bros.... yeah, I like a lot of those silly movies. Lol but there's definitely a few I'd never even heard of! Loved this video, thanks!
Ironically Kenan Thompson already did his bad film based off a sketch comedy bit: Good Burger! lol
Here in Chicago, Blues Brothers is surprisingly tied to our culture in many ways!
I'm younger than you and blues brother is the movie of my childhood. I quote it to this day. One time I learned that none of my friends had seen it and I just made all of them watch it on the spot.
Fun fact: Quentin Tarantino wrote an uncredited polish on It’s Pat: The Movie. He’s good friends with Julia Sweeney and he worked on the script as a favor to her. In return, she appeared briefly in Pulp Fiction
I grew up watching the Blues Brothers movies and listening to their music! But I had no idea it started with SNL. I still love those movies. So good!
Goes to show how popular that it’s pat movie is because I just discovered the skits not too long ago and just now found out they made a movie about them!
Wayne's World is one of my favorite comedies of all time.
Coneheads has a special place in my heart but I think it came out at the right time in my adolescence.
I love the SNLSOCU (satterday night live spin off cinematic universe!)
Believe it or not this is the first time I'm seeing anything from SNL.
I've literally never seen a single skit or episode of SNL. Only hearing about it negatively from commentary videos lol
SNL's early years were just... Like that. Garrett Morris also sang often, classical and Christmas music.
A sketch with Eric Idle just stops early when everybody makes fun of his accent. Those first five years are fantastic TV.
As someone born and raised in the Chicago burbs, sometimes I forget that there are people who haven't seen The Blues Brothers! It is for sure worth a watch if you haven't seen it!
I miss that cultural connectivity. There’s far too much available media now to experience it now. Things like GoT is probably as close as we’ve gotten… especially with single episode drops going extinct.
Chicago born and raised…. I thought everyone knew lines from the Blues Brothers… these 2 are the biggies:
“We’re getting the band back together”.
“We’re on a mission from God.”
It was made before I was born, but I definitely saw this as a kid, probably as a WGN Sat or Sun movie (it was a thing) in the 90’s, played tons of 80’s movies. Kevin Bacon was in most of them. Wayne’s World, “camera one, camera two”. The memories.
Thanks for this video. The nostalgia hit hard. Idk why I associate Coneheads with that Pauly Shore farmer movie (🎵Boot Scootin Boogie!!!) but I do. Side note: Pauly Shore movies would make another great video. Some weird shit.
Coneheads was one of my favorite childhood movies
Mine too! I didn't realize it lost so much money at the box office, and that most ppl didn't like it... I guess I've been living under a rock with my fond Conehead memories. I catch major feels every time I hear Kodachrome on the radio.
Idk if this fits the criteria but there was a digital short in 2016(?) called Office Christmas Party where Pete Davidson rapped about the awkwardness of holiday work parties. It got turned into a movie with celebrity main characters and the SNL cast as supporting characters. I never saw it but I vaguely remember trailers for it
I love Night at the Roxbury. 😭 the 11% hurts so much.
Happy that one of my favorite content creator, Scott, gave a shout out to another one of my favorite content creator, Scott.
Youre the only youtuber who ill happily watch sponsor segments lol! Somehow you make it enjoyable !
Blues brothers " bend over outta shield shaking tail feather" classic song... I'm old.
The "sketch": Dan aykroyd and John Belushi singing
The movie: have you ever seen such greatness that if anything made a higher box office than it you think that they're rigged?
You know MacGruber is a fucking gem when Christopher Nolan calls it one of his all time favourite films. He won't even stop talking about the film to his cast members whilst shooting his films.
I know the film is not for everyone, but my god the film has some scenes were me and friends had to almost go to A&E, for laughing so hard that we stopped breathing and almost crushed our ribs.
I only know Wayne's World because my parents loved it when they were my age. My least favorite middle school teacher also dressed as the blonde one every year for Halloween, a partner costume with my favorite dean. I never understood the appeal.
Idk why but I have watched The Blues Brothers every Christmas with my mom’s family since I was 9 years old. Every time we watch it my uncles always say something about the area the movie was shot in on the Southside and which parts of downtown they did filming in. Heck, after the movie was finished filming since they trashed all the cop cars the Chicago police department got the Crown Vic’s soon after.
Listen, nobody saw It's Pat at theaters, but it did ok as a rental. It wasn't good at all, but when you're old enough to rent movies non-R rated movies under your parents account and not old enough to drive it's amazing what will seem like a good idea.
It's been about 15 years since I've seen Night at the Roxburry, but I love it.
"The characters' humor derives from three sources: 1) their manner of speech; 2) their strange behavior; and 3) the casual acceptance of the first two by their neighbors and associates"
I'm just going to say it: Coneheads walked so that Borat could run.
A Night at the Roxbury is the generation of SNL I grew up with. It formed a lot of my humor, I think this generation of SNL actors is the best.
Blues Brothers was such a classic movie that it transcended its origins. A lot of people who love the movie don't even mention SNL. They just love the movie.
Fun fact, sorry if maybe someone else has already posted this but Bill Harder spoke about being asked to write a Stefon movie and he explains when interviewed on the podcast Fly on the Wall with David spade & Dana Carvey Harder said exactly what you said... A sketch doesn't work as a movie. Thanks for the video, as always I love it!
Oh I didn’t know about that! Glad I’m not the only one who thought it wouldn’t be a great idea 😂
Wonder if Bill Hader would wanna do it though? 🤔🤔
Interesting... How did Carvey and Spade react to that? (two guys who have been in movies based off TV sketches)
I don't even consider those to be sketches. Stefon is a side piece for the Weekend Update portion of SNL. In my opinion, they should do away with all of the interviews. I never consider them funny. It's possible they were in the '70s and '80s.
@@NicoAnimation they were really understanding. Check out the podcast to hear the details. I think it was about understanding that a bit or a sketch doesn't always translate to a movie and that's okay.
The fact that Drake and Josh did a Blues Brothers routine on the show goes to show you how good the real life Blues Brothers really was.
And they did Soul Man of course. Great episode.
@@clayjack9969 Hug me brutha
I think the humor with the Blue Brothers is the surprise that they're so talented, combined with the bizarre but impressive dancing
Blues Brothers is so pointless plot-wise and yet you feel along for the ride for the nonsense they’re going through. Truly love the movie because it’s a perfect deadpan comedy to me.
@@StayEmilino i agree, i just love how determinate and especially seirous the Jake and elwood were, hell even at the end when they are faced by like a million guns and arrested they are barely faced
The movie did have a killer soundtrack. And some fun car chases
@@StayEmilino I think what only enhanced the film, ironically, was all the behind-the-scenes drama that was actually going on in the late stages of the film's production. "The Blues Brothers" is one of those rare films where the behind-the-scenes spectacle is equally as fascinating and telling as the film itself between its early screenplay and budget complications, to Belushi's cocaine-infused escapades and grappling with addiction, to having to secure all those cars they destroyed over the course of the film, all the way up to a knee injury Belushi suffered late in the film's production and actually going so far as to anesthetize it just so that they can film him complete the scene.
When you take all of that in, it probably enriched the sense of urgency and determinism on their part to see this project through to completion adversity be damned, and in turn it just makes all the nonsense all the more captivating and authentic. It's just a crying shame that Belushi lost his battle with addiction shortly after the film's completion is all.
@@StayEmilino I think the original commenter is explaining the humor of the SNL "skits" with the blues Brothers, not the movie. As Scott had a hard time deciphering the humor of their SNL apparences specifically.
Kenan Thompson already has the greatest sketch to movie adaptation of all time in "Good Burger"
Good Burger was one of the best movies of the 90s.
@@FTChomp9980 Welcome to Good Burger, home of the Good Burger, can I take your order?
but my favorite Kel line is "Who loves orange soda?" but it's from a totally different sketch
And they’re allegedly making a sequel for some reason
i love movies where the sets are so large and cartoonish and good burger is one of the best ones for that
Omg you’re totally right! 😂 All That was the gift that kept on giving.
Blues Brothers still has a strong cultural hold in Chicago. After Sox games they play their cover of Sweet Home Chicago, people quote it all the time and so on. Also, the people in the band were in the SNL band so it was cool to see those guys act in the movie and play. Genuinely great musicians.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses.
Hello, fellow Chicagoan!
@@SevenFyrs hey, I’m also in Chicago! It’s nice to see a little gathering here :)
Grew up in Aurora and so Wayne’s World and Blues Brothers are classics to me. Same with Ferris Bueller. Chicagoans love movies about our city so it’s no surprise we supported these two were so successful especially with SNL’s Second City history.
@@StayEmilino have to throw in the rest of the John Hughes Chicago area films… The Breakfast Club, Uncle Buck, Home Alone, Sixteen Candles. Classics. I’ll even throw Curly Sue a bone, lol.
@@SevenFyrs gosh I didn’t even realize how many I’d left out. My favorite genre of movies is just anything set in Chicago! 😂
I honestly had no idea that Blues Brothers was snl inspired. It is one of favorite movies of all time. Probably my favorite comedy, highly recommend. The music is great, there is surprisingly awesome car chases and great comedy
Came here to say this. Although I knew it was from a sketch (admittedly from Drake and Josh lol) it is still an objectively good film. Definitely the best musical comedy film imho.
My dad and I will always order three orange whips at bars
@@krossbow_ haha nice you know every time I go to a restaurant I order three fried chickens and a coke
And Carrie Fisher is there
@@Darthvader468 very true, honestly the first time I saw her in something outside of Star Wars and she was great, had done of the best jokes
Ok so confession time: as a kid I used to demand my mom rent It’s Pat every time we went to Video City. So part of that $61k is from my mom. Sorry.
You briefly showed Ted Lasso at the end when talking about just the cast members going on to other projects, but what is interesting is that the character of Ted Lasso is also based on a sketch just not an SNL one. A few years ago Jason Sudeikis did a sketch for NBC, who were promoting soccer games coming to their platform. It was like a 7 minute sketch featuring this new character called Ted Lasso. In fact, a few of the jokes from that sketch also made their way into the TV show.
So it's a film based on a commercial lol
At first, I was hesitant because I knew it was based on a commercial so I waited to start watching the show until the whole first season out and I got to read some reviews to see if it was worth it. Well, the answer is definitely yes. It's amazing.
@@nesleehan5 it was way better than it should’ve been
Its probably because I didnt grow up in the US but I didnt realize the Blues Bros was an SNL movie. Amazing film that, and with what remains one of the greatest soundtracks of all time.
i grew up in the US and my dad is both a fan of old SNL and adores the blues brothers and i didn’t know it was an SNL movie. so it’s probably not your fault
Blues Brothers is in my top ten and I had no idea either lol
I learned it was an snl sketch after seeing the Drake and Josh episode where they perform “soul man” lol
Don't worry! Us Americans had no idea either 🤣 as popular as SNL seems almost no one I know watches it.
I'm the same with Wayne's world
I consider hot rod an SNL movie, and it is by far the best one
Hot Rod is S tier
That movie was a stoner classic. I saw that movie and laughed my ass off and that fact they got the guy from deadwood to play his step dad..
I wasn't a much fan of coneheads and ladies man.
