Fun fact Bubba Smith who played Hightower was 6ft7in and had a successful NFL career as a defensive lineman before acting.
@NightRaven 630 Man, that's a show I don't think people remember and one I am sure Dana Carvey REALLY hopes they forgot :)
Yes he was. He played for the Baltimore Colts.
Michael Winslow who plays Jones was seen by the producers doing his sound effects on stage in a comedy club and added the character of Jones simply to have him in the movie.
he's also the guy in Spaceballs whos reading the Radar.
First saw Michael in "Cheech and Chong's Next Movie" way too young to get most of the jokes. But his performance definitely caught my attention, I might've been ten at the time.
He has great stand up comdey too
@@drollieascoliasm9667 Seen him once here in Finland. Dubbed phenomenally the Star Wars sound effects. (The movie clips that played on the background were silent and he added all the sound effects to Tie Fighters etc.)
Winslow just has a gift, like literally no other actor I've ever seen before! It's a shame he has been out of movies since the early 90's, because of family trouble. That dude had a LEGENDARY acting career ahead of him, if he kept going in Hollywood!!
He'd probably also be the world's greatest voice actor, now that I think about it...
2 & 3 are worth watching entirely for the character of Zed played by Bobcat Goldthwaite. He is literally the funniest character in the franchise.
Yes I fully agree... He is the best part of 2&3
Zed and Sweetchuck are the best duo in the series!
This right here.
Don't forget 4.. Zed finally gets the girl.. And his poetry is fantastic.. lol..
Yes, 2 & 3 are really worth watching too!
"Maybe their hockey team lost..."
Perhaps the most Canadian thing ever uttered.
Or won. Vancouver had small riots for both.
Yep!
@@delwynklassen3644
When ever ice hockey related violence is mentioned it brings Vancouver to mind! Greetings from Finland.

Watching Simone go from nervous and embarrassed giggling over things early in the channel to blatantly making jokes, pining for Jeff Goldblum, and confidently slinging "Knew it!" during the intro bit is the main character development and plot that unites all of CineBinge's videos.
Jeff Goldbum?!! Don't you mean Steve Guttenberg?!!
Goggle Jeff Goldblum
@@mattyoung7415 Nevermind, I miss understood your comment!
Y'all misunderstood my comment but I can see how it was unclear. I know this isn't Jeff Goldblum, I was referencing the multiple other videos he's in where she's made comments about him -- not this specific video.
@@mj_SR22 Yes, I realized that when I reread your comment!! Cheers mate!!
God bless Michael Winslow (aka: random noise dude).
A true legendary actor and human beatbox
Sad to see him try for a comeback as a contestant on Americs Got Talent
We al thought it had to be fake !! Then i grew up and saw him do that live wtf!?!! 😂❤❤❤🎉
And Steve Guttenburgs chest hair
He died of noises
Simone: 'They used to have little one hour photo booths?' Me: 'God, I'm old...' LOL!
Waaaaay back in the day, Fotomats weren't one hour. You'd drop your film off and it would be sent to a lab, and within 24 hours it would be sent back to the booth.
Was looking for this comment before I obliged, thank you
@@RickLeMon And EVERYBODY would see your photos as they scrolled passed the window.
I fuckin' aged like 20 years just hearing that and remembering the old Kodak booths, lol.
Ummm…I used to drop off a roll of film at the chemist shop & you could pick up your envelope of photos & negatives a WEEK later. Do I feel old?
The trajectory of this whole series is fascinating because it goes from Full On Sex Comedy to Just Kind Of Raunchy Comedy to PG Rated Comedy to Cartoon Reality Comedy to Actual Cartoon Series. It's pretty insane.
Isn't that weird? It makes sense if a series goes on long enough for the fans of the original entry in the franchise to start having kids but it is a bit odd in the abstract. Another series that charts the same trajectory is "Robocop" which ended up being for the kids by the time the third film happened - MUCH sharper left turn in vibe with those, obviously.
The Toxic Avenger is the goat example of this phenomenon
Yeah, 4 & 5 are basically family movies.
It's not that anyone can become a cop. It's that anyone can join the academy. If they can graduate successfully then they can become a cop.
So, anyone?

Fun Fact: Michael Winslow who played Lavall Jones the sound effects guy was hired last minute after the producers saw his Stand Up Comedy Act shortly before filming begin and where so impressed they wrote a role specifically for him to show off his skill.
He was also in Spaceballs as the Radar Operator.
He's also in Spy Hard as a one off cut away visual gag. As Leslie Nielsen's character is sneaking through a jungle full of sounds the camera shows Michael Winslow sitting in the bushes practicing a book of jungle and animal sound effects.
He was also the voices of the the Gremlins in that film
He had a small part in Cheech and Chong's Next Movie back in 1980. I believe that was his first on screen roll. Interesting that it ended up being his stand up act after another 4 years that got him the kind of attention he deserved. Even in that small part his talent was obvious. Shocking that nobody noticed him back than.
George Gaynes, who played the commandant, is absolutely gold in this movie. Plenty of the other characters are rightfully remembered for their roles; but man, does George ever sell the comedy. Every scene he's in, he plays it perfectly.
He played the "kindly but befuddled old man" role better than just about anyone. R.I.P.
@@jculver1674 anyone but Leslie Nielsen
@@jculver1674 Except Joe Biden….
Yes I went there, I couldn’t help it.
@@jculver1674 Gordon Pinchot deserves praise for his old man as well
@@shawnmiller4781 Okay, I'll give you that one.
"So, anyone can be a cop. That sounds terrible. Just all kinds of unqualified people."
This has been my periodic reminder that Simone and George are Canadian.
👍👌😁🤔
Along with the “it only takes 14 weeks of training? It’s like 2-3 years in other countries” line lol
My reminder was when they asked how riots starts
or from any where in the world that isnt america
cops are horrible in most places, it’s just that americans ones are egregiously so.
I feel this series mostly lives on nostalgia. The 1st movie is a fun mildly-raunchy comedy. The 2nd, just another sequel. But the 3rd establishes a formula of silliness that every movie afterwards follows. You go into them knowing exactly what you'll see. It's like seeing old friends again. I could see new, younger viewers being baffled by their popularity. Me, I adore them.
I like 1, 4 and 6 myself.
I always liked the 1st and 2nd
One of the best things about this franchise is the repeating jokes. It was like a tradition to go see them every year.
@@TReynard11 1 and 4 are absolutely the best. But my enthusiasm for the films goes sharply downhill, starting with 5. "Citizens on Patrol" is where the series peaks. But after that peak, the series, in general, just falls off a cliff. Especially given that many of the major actors/characters depart from the series after Part 4.
@@jacob4920 Agreed. They milked it too long. 1-4 are very worth watching.
G.W. Bailey (Lt. Harris) and Bubba Smith (Hightower) are both from southeast TX from towns about 20 miles apart. G.W. Bailey still visits and Bubba passed away several years ago. Bubba was huge and is in the NFL Hall of Fame. Bubba is a legend from this area.
Also when Bart got caught shoplifting Bone Storm Homer said “Why do you think I took you to see all those Police Academy movies, for fun?! Well, I didn’t hear anybody laughing! Did you?!” 😂
Except at that guy who made sound effects...
I just wrote this same quote just now, then scrolled down and saw yours. You beat me to it. Comment deleted!
Fun Fact, TackleBarry the gunnut didnt duck when Barbara turned around with the Shotgun as he knew there was no danger cause Barbara hadnt pumped a new shell in. I love those little details
RIP Bubba Smith, David Graf, Debralee Scott, George Gaynes, George Ross Robertson, and Marion Ramsey.
Well, that comment depressed me.
LOL. No offense. I know they had all passed, but seeing it all in 1 sentence really bummed me out.
Bubba Smith, the tall guy, was a defensive lineman in the NFL. Kind of legendary for both his playing and certain commercials. "If all the cops looked like him, there would be no crime."
"To me, marriage is a sacred institution. So tell me, you and the wife do it doggie-style, or what?"
First Police Academy movie pretty much just introduces the characters, next 3 sequels play with those characters (and a few newcomers) very well, which I hope you guys react to.
Also, RIP Bubba Smith aka Hughtower, Marion Ramsay aka Hooks, David Graf aka Tackleberry and George Gaines aka Eric Lassard.
The actors that played George Martin and Captain Reed had also passed away
@@karlsmith2570 God, these movies have got a DEATH TOLL to them that I can't recall any other single movies ever having!!
@@jacob4920 indeed, Howard Hesseman and Art Metrano, who both appeared in police academy 2 also passed
@@jacob4920 The large number of actors who have expired really isn't so shocking considering that it's been nearly forty years since this movie came out. A lot of these actors were over thirty at least, and some looked well into their forties and beyond.
Fun connection with The Simpson's joke is that Michael Winslow is in both Spaceballs and Police Academy.
And gremlins
Good eye!
The scene at 18:56 happened to me in boot camp. The guy to my left turned his whole body to ask a question and pointed a loaded pistol at me with the safety off and his finger still on the trigger after firing his first shot. Luckily, the instructor jumped on him immediately and made the weapon safe before I could even hit the deck.
Also, George's Futurama quote at 19:46 was exactly what I was thinking.
“Why is he always polishing his knob”
and
“What is fuck?”
are just wonderful moments. Thanks, Simone. :-)
It was then she realised she fucked up.
yes and her reaction to that is just brilliant. Thank you Simone.
Bachelor Party starring Tom Hanks, and Better Off Dead starring John Cusacks, are both 80's comedy classics too. Hope you have a chance to watch.
I would put Real Genius at the top of the list
Bachelor Party actually replaced Police Academy at my local cinema. Let’s just say it was a great education for 16 year old me.
One of my earliest school memories was after this was shown on TV EVERY kid was attempting to make noises like Michael Winslow in class and it drove our teachers crazy
2&3 are worth it for Bobcat Goldthwait alone!
I get this series mixed up with Revenge of the Nerds for some reason... shared cast members maybe.
Well, the 4th is the best of the entire series and he is indeed in that one too.
This was the first movie my family watched when we got our brand new vcr.
I was 10.
I watched it 12 times in 3 days!
Our 2nd, first was ghostbusters, equally ruined within a few months 😅
I'm not 100% sure, but I think ours was Heartbeeps...
The blue oyster bar appears in almos all movies in the series. On of the best running jokes in the history of cinema.
Police Academy 2 is just as funny as the first, definitely worth a watch. 3 and 4 are pretty decent on the whole too. It gets a bit rough after 4 though.
The fact that the first 4 Police Academy movies were filmed in Toronto always gave me Canadian movie vibes. And that's a good thing:)
I don't think I've ever seen either of you laugh so much. This was a joy to watch.
I would possibly recommend that George And Simone continue with the Police Academy series as they have wrote off Tackleberry as a misunderstood psycho when there is actually character development for him progressively throughout the films. He isn't all bad just a gun enthusiast
Crazy to remember exactly how light of a raunch comedy Police Academy was when I think about movies such as Porky’s and Revenge Of The Nerds.
Porky’s was next level raunchy 🤣
@@johnglue1744 just one name:
'Lassie' 😂
@@UberWraith Funny because that’s Kim Cattrall too.
The guy making all the noises is Michael Winslow "The man of 10,000 sound effects." You might remember him as the guy making all the noises in Space Balls for the radar device lol. The big guy that played Hightower is Bubba Smith. He played in the NFL for 9 years and was 6'7
And Smith for a while was the pitchman for FTD
I think these are good up through #4. This is probably the best overall movie of the franchise, BUT there are two characters in the next three that make the whole thing worth watching.
Completely agree here!
1 to 4 and (i feel) they pulled it back on 6. 5 and 7 weren't so good, but they're still great for Police Academy fans, and Ron Pearlman did kinda save 7 quite a bit.
"we shall call it........... ......THE NEW GEEEME."
Zed is my favourite!!!
@@darkaoshi27 3 is my favourite one, he does help with that.
@@darkaoshi27 What are you, NUTS??
I'M A VEGETARIAAaaAeEeRRNN!!
The Commandant was played by the late, great George Gaynes who lived to be almost 99 and was a working actor until age 86. Hopefully you will one day watch the movie "Tootsie," in which he has a small but hysterical role as a hammy soap opera actor.
Simone you were on fire this movie, had me cracking up, thanks you guys for the awesome channel and letting me relive these movies through your views!
Fun fact to note: when everybody ducks after Cadet Barbara accidentally fires his shot...the only one to not duck was Tackleberry because he knows proper gun safety despite being "Gung ho" all the time and that sense it wasn't racked (he didn't have another shell in the chamber) it wouldn't fire
Counterpoint: Rule number one of gun safety is "Always treat the gun like it's loaded." Whether or not you think there could have been a shell chambered, you never flag anyone like that, and you should never just stand there and let yourself be flagged either.
Don't know if it's already been brought up, but I like a very small detail > In the shotgun training scene Tackleberry is the only one who does not get down when Barbara turns around and "flags" all the Trainees... because he's the only one who is enough of a gun nut to know that Barbara didn't rack the slide to insert another shell :P .
18:57 notice how Tackleberry is the only one who doesn’t duck as he knows that the gun wasn’t pumped
It’s amazing how much the city the Metropolitan Police department worked in looks exactly like Toronto.
The “Police Academy” was the retired Lakeshore Psychiatric Hospital which is now Humber College lakeshore Campus .
I think it was in 2021 shortly after him popping into AGT as a "reintroduction" of his unique standup routine to new generations of potential fans. I attended a Screening of Police Academy that Michael Winslow did a brief introduction and concluded the screening with a Q&A plus his standup. It was like being on cloud 9 for 3 hours! It was so great to see him in person. He talked about all the stuff that may seem ahead of it's time or maybe didn't age the best, but when you put your head into the mind space of that time it was kinda groundbreaking. Like for example they had like to no budget or any idea how to handle the Blue Oyster Bar. So the director asked the costuming dept. if they had access to any type of costumes that might work...well when they asked what extras they had to get measurements for they went back and forth on how many people would be in the scene and what kinda budget and when it was reveled that there wasn't much of a budget left for either. So as luck would have it all the extras playing patrons in the bar scene was most of the costuming dept. and their partners and friends in their weekend attire with some of them also having taken classes in Ball Room dancing prior to filming! 😆
Quote of the day: "He did spend some time in a horse's ass, though. So that's something." I laughed for so long!
No one ever stops at Episode 1. It's an incredible journey to watch all 6 (cause true fans don't care much for episode 7)
True fans watching it until the 4th...
Unfortunately, all reactors that I know never watched further than the 1st one...
@@Shritistrang sad but unfortunately true
I thought 3 was the worst. 4-6 are all moderately, kinda-sorta funny.
1 thru 4 are just fine. After that, the series really falls off a cliff, and loses a lot of its' appeal.
Lol, I love George’s expressions when Simone throws out a stumper in the intro.
Did you notice that it was filmed in Toronto. Back ground at the parking lot where Mahoney worked was Roy Thompson Hall. The Riot happened in Kensginton Market. Also the woman in the podium was a porn star named Georgina Spelvin. Also Hightower, Tackleberry and Hooks are deceased now. RIP Bubba Smith, David Graf, and Marion Ramsey
It was so nice to see 80's Toronto again. I think I recognized every city shot.
One of the funniest action comedy movies ever made!
RIP, Bubba Smith (Hightower)
George Gaines (Commandant Eric Lassard)
David Graf(Eugene Tackleberry)
Miriam Ramsay (Laverne Hooks)
George has since passed too
@@paulshaw9953 The list is literally show the passed actors/actress...
The actress playing the prostitute in the podium was actually an adult film actress from the 1970s and 80s named Georgina Spelvin. She was a musical theater actress-dancer in New York with several Broadway shows to her credit before doing any adult films. Her most famous film from the "porno-chic" era of the 1970s was 'The Devil In Miss Jones.'
So happy you enjoyed this! Police Academy is one of my favorite Comedy franchises and I watch them often. Definitely watch everything but the last one.
Yes George! The Futurama reference is strong! :D
Police Academy 1-4, in my opinion, were fun movies. Once Steve Guttenberg leaves the franchise, both it and his career more or less took a nose dive.
The scene of Barbara facing off with the guys that bullied him when Barbara thought they were looting the furniture, which turned out to be theirs
If nothing else, Barbara had proved that those guys wouldn't be able to bully him anymore
He followed his training perfectly! He saw that they were not a lethal threat, so he holstered his sidearm, then used just enough force to neutralize the threat without killing or seriously injuring them.....
They *said* it was theirs. Who moves house during a sreet riot?
@@MGower4465 to be fair, I've often wondered about that myself
The only thing that I could come up with was that it was their furniture and it was stored somewhere that could potentially be looted by the rioters and they didn't want that to happen
@@karlsmith2570 So instead of staying with it as guards behind locked doors, they choose to carry it out to a truck where they could be outnumbered 10 to 1 in an eyeblink with all their hands occupied holding stuff. The guys could join their intellects and lose a battle of wits with a houseplant.
It's funny you picked up on Jones just being there for gags. Because he was. He was discovered by someone doing stand up very close to the start of filming. They found a way to fit him in, but he really doesn't have any specific thing he does plot wise (like yeah, he got Mahoney out of the classroom that one time, but had they simply jumped to Mahoney going to Lassards office no one would have wondered). In fact, when George observed the early scene in the interrogation room with Mahoney and Reed it felt like a pick up shot, it might very well have been, since that's when he asks for Jones to go with him to the Academy.
George being horrified that the academy takes only 12-14 weeks (480-560 hours).
The United States... "Yeah, that's too long"
They made 6 of these. Kids loved them in the 80’s, even if it was for adults😊
If you notice when Barbara swings the shotgun around after he fired the shot tackleberry is the only one that doesn't duck lol
What I always thought was funny about this movie is the gun range Tacklberry is the only one that doesn’t move when he turns around with the shotgun at everyone because he shot it and never chambered a shotgun shell until he turned back away from everyone.
Ok we are into the Gutenberg phase….does this mean we can expect Short Circuit soon?
@@Rocket1377 it’s my favourite performance but I enjoy him in most things in the 3 Men movies
The Blue Oyster?
They've got the best salad bar in town 😉😄
I've seen Michael Winslow live twice. What that man can do with his vocal cords and a microphone is insane.
A couple of Millennials watching this GOLD. PRICELESS!!! Was 11 when I saw one of my top 5 favorite movies in the theater in 84.
I was so happy to see this posted! I love this movie, one of my all time favs! I spent 20 years as a small-town cop in Ohio, and I can neither confirm nor deny the degree to which this film may, or may not have inspired my desire to be a cop! Although, my academy experience was nothing like this! The state and most larger cities do run their own academies, and some are residential, but, mine was a community college program. Oh, and although it varies from state to state, and even department to department, sometimes, the police academy is *generally* around six months, or so, in the US.
A couple of comments: if the "sound effects guy" (the amazing Michael Winslow) seems familiar, he was in Spaceballs; he was the radar technician! And I'm shocked you didn't share and celebrate Hooks' big moment!
Finally, two reactors that get the "polishing his knob" joke! Thank you! God, a lot of reactors miss that.
Michael Winslow when asked about robin Williams and he said masters don't compete, and both michael and robin are masters of sound effects, in the sequels Jones have much bigger parts and you can see how talented he is
"Who makes Steve Guttenberg a star?
We do, we do!"
(From The Stonecutters song)
2-3 are really good, mainly because of one new infamous character :)
ZEEEEDDDDDD!!!!😊😊
Police Academy 1-4 are gems. Anything after that is entirely unnecessary.
Police Academy 5 is the 2nd best one after the 1st imo
8:05 Former UK police officer here. I also did 14 weeks, but that's just the initial period at training college. Our whole probation period is two years. It's just that from week 15 onwards we learn on the job.
police academy... total classic!
There are seven Police academy movies. You have alot of movies to enjoy. I like 2-5, give them a chance👮👮♀️. There is also an animated Police academy series. (Kim Catrall who plays Thompson is also Samantha in Sex and the city)
When this came out, I was a senior in high school. My best bud and I saw it at the theater where people were literally falling out of the seats. The next night we took our entire English IV class, all five of us, and watched it again and made a night of it.
11:15 He's always polishing it because hands are covered in grease and sweat, and it'll tarnish. But also because he's a martinet.
Great reaction!! An underrated 80s comedy, prob because it doesnt have any "big names" on it. I would say 2-4 are worth a watch, mainly for Bobcat Goldthwait.
I think Police Academy 2 is worth a watch. It is pretty funny with some new cast members that will make you laugh. I remember watching 3 and not hating it too!
Not many people notice the first time they watch this movie. The shotgun training scene when Leslie turned around and everybody ducked. Tackleberry was the only one who didn't duck because he knew that the shotgun's round was not chambered.
This movie was filmed completely in the Toronto area
2 and 3 are worth watching (as they introduce and then develop the best new character), but after that it is rough.
I love and recommend all seven films. They were often shown around the holidays as a marathon and seem like a whole saga, I wouldn't leave any of them out. The cast varies a bit but the human sound machine Jones is present in each film.
But the other six are significantly less funny
Homer also had a line about the "Guy who made sound effects was the only good character"
If you watch all 7 movies you'll find some returning cast, some new cast and maybe some people you know from other movies
the series also got a cartoon series and a live action TV series
Great to see this again. Actor Andy Rubin - who played the Don Juan character cadet Martin - also did not return in the sequels. Sadly passed away in 2015, Rubin was the uncle of a friend of mine - according to him left Police Academy and most acting when he started a relationship with the Ramtha cult leader in Washington state.
Love this movie, such a classic.
Your reaction to 'Police Academy' was very enjoyable by both of you. Your next reaction (if you two have not done it yet) is the 1981 comedy film 'Stripes', about a group of misfits joining the U.S. Army and the trouble they cause as well getting in a bad situation. Fantastic cast!
the complete look of of joy in the guys face when he screams "FREE TV'S!" Has always made me die laughing!
I remember my older sister taking me to watch this and Splash in the theater in 1984. Fun memories!!
"They used to have one-hour photo booths? That's crazy."
Ha, yep. They were slightly larger than that one but they would be in parking lots or just small shops.
It would be many years before I would know that police academy was not like a military boot camp.
After watching "Android Death Punch," Simone's look of curiosity reminds me of that character observing and questioning.
It is not unrealistic for two people to have a so-called relationship as that depicted after just meeting each other a few times.
The sequels were PG-13 and became a sort of joke, like most movies that were putting out multiple sequels every year or two, as that was not common except with some horror films. Also, there were fewer raunchy comedies like this after 1984. This was sort of the tail end of that trend; others that year were "Hot Dog: The Movie" and "Hardbodies," but this and "Porky's" in 1982 were the biggest hits.
I think 1-3 are decent, after that the quality definitely starts to fall off.
George: "When asses collide." Still laughing MY ass off. LOL
Police Academy 2: Their First Assignment & 3: Back in Training are great and well worth a watch. Definitely don't bother beyond that as the series goes way down from then on.
It's worth watching the next couple of sequels. All the characters are fun and likable and it's cool to see them actually develop a little bit. Plus Bob goldwaith.
I can’t tell you how great this makes my morning!
Same 😁
Bubba Smith, the actor playing Cadet Moses Hightower, was a former football player turned actor. He specialized in comedic roles. He was 6'7" tall.
FYI - Bubba Smith (Hightower), former Defensive End for the Baltimore Colts, Oakland Raiders, and Houston Oilers - 6'7", 265.
I loved these movies as a kid, saw them all dozens of times. There's more you can watch, certainly 2, 3 and 4 are worth a watch.
Michael Winslow was also in Spaceballs. He's awesome.
Bubba Smith played in the NFL as a defensive tackle. He was very formidable. For sure. Thanks for reacting!
It's always a fun film when Kim Cattrall is in it...Porky's - Mannequin - Big Trouble in Little China and of course Star Trek VI.
I grew up on 3 & 4, watched those so many times. The real fall off in Mission to Moscow is Steven Guttenberg left. You wouldn't think that would be a big deal, but somehow he held these movies together.
They are certainly worth watching, at least the earlier movies.
It's funny that George thought to say "...got the dog to ... unroll the dipstick" rather than "got the dog to ... perform".
5:16 Pretty sure Simon Pegg’s fence jumping sequences are a reference to Ferris Bueller’s Day Off. Police Academy is two years older, but this looks like it’s lifted from somewhere else, too.
🌍💖 Great reactions from both, thank you!
This police saga is an iconic film series even in Central Europe, where I live! Generations of people laugh at these movies. Welcome aboard, both of you!
