@@petercampbell8694 that would be amazing. I had this idea that if the actors are too old, maybe they could do it in an anime style but set it in the 80s, so you could have mel gibson in the team, and maybe have seagal too. Maybe clint eastwood.
I think Bennett and Matrix were once close friends, but over their time in special forces, Bennett became warped by the constant violence and slowly turned into a monster. Matrix was appalled by this and got Bennett dishonourably discharged, but Bennett felt betrayed that his friend saw HIM as the monster, when they lived in a world of death where the only thing that mattered was the purity of battle. In short, Bennett was a once good man who lost his way, became psychotic, and could no longer understanding the difference between battle and butchery, much less comprehend why his friend would be disgusted by what he had become.
@@yellowblanka6058 Oh? Maybe you are overly concerned with how other people amuse themselves on their lunch breaks? Think of it as an exercise in creativity.
Watched this movie a lot back in the 80's. Wells said the lines good and played the part good. It's just as someone who was supposed to be from an elite spec ops group, his physique wasn't right for the role. He was a lot leaner in the Road Warrior as Wez. It would've only taken about 3 months of cross-training and bodyweight exercises before filming to get Wells more into looking the part and Arnold would've still been the bigger guy.
Yeah, I mean, Arnold had been obsessively weight training since like 12/13 every chance he got, so there's no way in hell a few months of weight training would get him into anywhere near the same shape, but that fight scene is one of the most hilarious mismatches I've ever seen - Wells looks like a taller dude with a pretty average build, and Arnold is well...Arnold, and we're supposed to buy that Bennett has Arnold pinned....lol, come on. But then the whole movie is so ridiculous and over-the-top that it's probably the least ridiculous thing about it.
Lol, I'm probably about the same height/taller than Arnold but I wouldn't say that would mean we're well matched for a fight scene, heh. Arnold was clearly very muscular while Vernon was a bigger guy, but had a pretty average build, which is why the notion of him overpowering Arnold in the final scene always struck me as hilarious - especially considering we see him throwing off like a dozen security guards like nothing earlier in the movie.
Everyone who saw it at the time knew about that factor. It only made the whole absurdity of Commando better. Wells was the OG of zesty supervillains. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
Vernon Wells goes to a bar and sees some guys throwing knives at the dartboard The guy tells Vernon "hey I bet I'm better than you at this game" And Vernon says "Put your knife away and shut your mouth" 😂😂
You always want to hate the bad guys while watching these movies, but then you get to meet some of them at conventions and find they are actually super friendly and really cool guys. Just goes to show what good actors they are.
"When a powerful current discharge passes through Bennett, he doesn't care about it - it even seems to recharge! However, the energy is not enough for long. The brain is the first to turn off: instead of releasing John first from P.P., Bennett begins a spherical monologue, at the same time he is simply unable to speak and pull the trigger. Matrix hurriedly tears off the pipe with his hands (one of which was disabled) and pierces this clown-tent to death..." (Red Cynic, Russian video blogger, movie reviewer) )))))
When talking about Freddy Mercury Bennent says it would be good if he was still alive to see it? But Commando came out in 1985 and Freddy died in 1991. 🤷🏻♂️
I thought he was great as Bennet. He brought a great mixture of menace and comedy to the performance. However, despite what he says, he was physically no match for Arnie.
That was funny,if matrix was here,he'd laugh too.jokes aside he might of been similar weight but lack of tone made him look way smaller.if he was in shape like he was in mad max 2 he wouldve looked more of threat but his complete lack of muscles is what makes him great
Vernon should’ve been in one of the expendables movies. Some villains can be played at any age
Agreed.
It lowkey would be the best cameo ever if he came back and died in the same way as in commando in an expendables movie.
Power rangers time force vernon wells as ransik
STILL Time! - Come on Sly, make this happen in the next instalment 👍

Vernon was absolutely instrumental in that film, which by the way is the best film ever made.
Best film ever made 😂😂 Yeah k
The background noise needs to be louder.
Sorry I can't hear you. What were you saying?
LOL!!!!!
Bennett=Greatest villain of all time
samuel stukes you mean gayest?
I take it you don’t watch many movies. :)
@@badkarmabaroo he's right though
Vernon Wells actually described his character Bennett as Freddie Mercury on steroids. It's on the Internet Movie Database.

Well Said. Nobody could say it better !
Lol, I think you might be thinking a little too deeply about a shallow, borderline comical 80's action movie.
@@yellowblanka6058 Oh? Maybe you are overly concerned with how other people amuse themselves on their lunch breaks? Think of it as an exercise in creativity.
Vernon is a legend.Nice guy.
Heck of a nice guy.
Vernon Wells is awesome.
classic commando wouldve been incomplete without vernon
When I was child I thought that it was Angry Freddie Mercury!
Hollywoods finest talent
Great Actor 😎 🇦🇺
Gday Vernon! Now there's a man I'd love to have a beer with!
Let off some steam Vernon.
Come on Vernon lets party.

i love this movie
CMON, BENNETT...LET'S PLAY!
Melchi Zedeq
Put the keyboard away.... and shut your mouth..

He should have asked him what type of person Bennett was where being electrocuted energized him? Cmon Bennett, Let's party.
I always thought Bennett was played by Freddie Mercury on steroids lol
I laughed while I watched this video, if Matrix was here he'd laugh too.
What did he do After Commando? Did he go back Down under or he remained in Hollywood?
They should made commando 2 when they got the chance, Alyssa Milano was in perfect shape and then time got wasted in the Charmed series
I'd LOVE to know who was originally cast as Bennett? It's hard to find online.
Innerspace-too
Do you think the way bennet walks made the audiance realize he's a huge gay?
What do you mean? this was my normal walk.
What's with this guy's questions towards the end? Took it right out of the moment.
If matrix hered,he laughhrrr tooo
Ahhh, that's the guy who sang with Queen. I got it.
Freddy mercury love to fight matrix
HELLO BENNETT
Ransik Power Rangers Time Force
Vernon wez
Too many questions about sex, omg! Sad.
He reprised his role in No chance.
Vernon Wells, supposedly, is 5.10!!!, how tall really is Arnold!?
About 6 ft 1
Sorry Vernon, but being the same "height" and being the same "size" aren't the same thing.
Evenly matched? One looks like an action hero and the other looks like my dad WTF was he talking about?
Ransik
shit i thought he'd be dead by now
This gay narrative is really gross
Everyone who saw it at the time knew about that factor. It only made the whole absurdity of Commando better. Wells was the OG of zesty supervillains. Not that there's anything wrong with that...
How does it feel to be a dying man John???
This makes me laugh, if matrix were here, he'd laugh too
Are you trying to intimidate me?
@@MarkanVaran7 I can't believe this macho bullshit!
Cutting a little girls throat is like cutting warm butter lol it made me laugh also
Hey not bad.....Hooker...
You are afraid Mr. Bennet. You are afraid of Matrix.
Vernon Wells goes to a bar and sees some guys throwing knives at the dartboard
The guy tells Vernon "hey I bet I'm better than you at this game"
And Vernon says "Put your knife away and shut your mouth"

Freddie Mercury could easily have seen Commando, he died 6 years after the movies release
When Bennett says 'im gonna kill you John' his face at the moment was a look of pure lust if ever I seen it.
I laughed while I watched this video, if Matrix was here he'd laugh too.
Vernon was perfect for the part of Bennett. Classic movie !
I made a Bennett action figure that I’m very proud of
You're getting old Vernom... You're getting ooold

Mr Wells Legend.
He's so good at playing creepy and unbalanced and yet as one can see here, he looks like the biggest teddy bear of a guy. :)

I thought he was great as Bennet. He brought a great mixture of menace and comedy to the performance. However, despite what he says, he was physically no match for Arnie.
Uncle Vernon))) And in our country, another "Uncle Vernon" is more famous - who lived in Surrey and whose nephew lived in a closet under the stairs)))
So it's NOT the retired MLB outfielder....
As Bennett he was as scary crazy a psychotic as Javier Bardem's Anton Chigurh!
"Sugar?"
Let out some steam Bennett 😜
Anyone laugh when he says him and Arnie were basically the same size? Sounds exactly like the kinda thing Bennet would say lol, weird delusion
That was funny,if matrix was here,he'd laugh too.jokes aside he might of been similar weight but lack of tone made him look way smaller.if he was in shape like he was in mad max 2 he wouldve looked more of threat but his complete lack of muscles is what makes him great
I love the scene in 2:41
Vernon wells was ripped in commando!!
His shirt was ripped you mean. From his bulging gut.
Badass
Hey mr vVERNON WELLS youre co star in philippine movies titled ULTIMATUM was dead MR EDDIE GARCIA.. 6/20/19
The continiued sex-questioning is kinda cringe but other than that nice questions and fun to hear him speak about it.
Perfectly matched? No. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don't need the girl! I need you and your beautiful eyes JOHN!!!! I'M GONNA KISS YOU NOWWWW!!!!!
Ransik anyone?
A mi me gusta Wez
Commando please tell me that was a comedy
that was a Bloody-violent comedy ;-).
Commandy
