Those are great movies, and all top line major releases back in the day... Sadly they wouldn't get that kind of promotion today, wouldn't even been made
Of course mate, bacause we all know racism is only about african. You have already elected several native american presidents and senators in their own colonized land. Don't you.
Both are timeless classics imo. Essential for film comedy. Steve Martin was at the height of his powers with this, Three Amigos and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!
I love how Iron Balls just stood there with a smirk on his face and presented his balls to him like he knew Navin was gonna just kick him in the balls. It's like his superpower just as long as they go for a nut shot
The thing I like about it is he's right it is funny and I just agree with sticking up when people say that word it has a lot of hurt in it we should never use that word God bless
Two Godfather references in one scene! Not only do you have Lenny Montana, aka Luca Brasi, in the scene, it was filmed at the same house as Woltz's house in Godfather! The pool is instantly recognizable.
That's crazy how I immediately recognized Lenny as Luca the second time I watched The Jerk as a kid, and yet I never noticed the filming location until I read this comment! I've watched this movie at least a half a dozen times now too, I guess I'm not that observant lol
When I was a kid, I remember that the "edited" for TV version called him Iron Bill or Bull McGinty... Lol 😆! Quick fact: Carl Gottlieb, who was nominated for a Golden Globe for the screenplay for Jaws, co-wrote The Jerk with Steve Martin and also portrayed Iron Balls McGinty!
if you guys get the chance, go back and watch Blazing Saddles. you will not believe how great it is. and how you could never run that movie today because of the racist obama people being too sensitive.
On network TV, they would cut this scene at 1:39, shorning off the part where Navin kicks Iron Balls McGinty in the junk (or tries to, anyway!). By the way, that's Carl Gottlieb, one of the film's writers.
I just watched another clip and it made me think of this scene. Thanks for posting, I remembered it as "I happen to be a n****r" instead of "Sir, you are talking to a n*****r". Got to get such a funny scene right!
I don’t think it exposes anything. Its just a funny joke. You’re talking about a scene where a guy hurts his foot because he tried to kick testicles made of iron. Theres really no need to try to make it all deep
he's gotta be the only guy in history who could drop a hard R and come out *more charming*
michael richards would like a word
Even Steve Martin is more convincing than Steven Seagal 😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 agreed
Or Jackie Chan😂😂
He did pretty good here....lol
I truly believe this movie is one of the greatest comedy masterpieces, it's right up there with Blazing Saddles and Airplane.
Blazing saddles is Amazing!
Definitely !!!!!!!!
Wilder was great in that.
Facts Max.
Those are great movies, and all top line major releases back in the day... Sadly they wouldn't get that kind of promotion today, wouldn't even been made
If it weren't for Iron Balls McGinty, Steve Martin would have ended racism!
I'm picking out a thermos for you buddy
Of course mate, bacause we all know racism is only about african. You have already elected several native american presidents and senators in their own colonized land. Don't you.
Lmao! Very true! Lol
Jesus the ended racism joke is really 6 years old, time flies
He looks like will Ferrells character in anchorman 2.
I like to say as a black man Steve Martin is my nigga.
Him and Jesus Christ ..
Facts, him, and Eugene Levy in Bringing Down The House too.
Who else has seen this movie 1000 times and it still makes you laugh? The Jerk and Office Space are hilarious. 🤣
Both are timeless classics imo. Essential for film comedy. Steve Martin was at the height of his powers with this, Three Amigos and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!
His ‘HIIIYYYAAA!!’ here makes me burst out laughing every time.
Yes, these are both great films. Kentucky Fried Movie, the Blues Brothers, Silver Streak, the Groove Tube and Idiocracy are great ones too.
How could you know that was Iron Balls McGinty?
You identify as a black man. That's cool, man.
From start to finish, Steve Martin killed it......that's a good thing.
***** haha thanks!
Navin R. Johnson is one cool black dude...
Therefore, his life matters.

"Don't be so hard on yourself, Navin. How could you know that was 'Iron Balls' McGinty?"
So, damn, funny- I can come back to this anytime and still laugh at that line.
I wish my balls were made of iron.
I love how Iron Balls just stood there with a smirk on his face and presented his balls to him like he knew Navin was gonna just kick him in the balls. It's like his superpower just as long as they go for a nut shot
Wow Steve was 34 here. He looks like a 55 years old in good shape.
White hair
He always had grey hair.
Pucukax As you can see he went gray. He actually went gray very young. Younger than here.
He's probably had gray hair since his late 20s...
He is a Witcher.
That scene will never get old, as a black man I’m not offended, 😂
I'm am not offended when I see him dance. As a white man... he still dances better than me.
I'm glad we can all laugh at something.
Someone will be offended for you.

Dedicated to the white people with that black soul.

That is no way to treat Luca Brazzi!! LOL
And May their first child be a masculine child
What a badass. Reminiscent of Bruce Lee. Especially liked the way he took out judo Gene Lebell!
one of the funniest scenes, from one of the funniest movies of all time!!
This movie is so much better than any comedy movie that gets made nowadays!
Dealing with classy people. He's got a dozen gold chains around his neck haha.
Navin's Mr. T starter kit!
One of the best comedy scenes. Movies like this can’t be made anymore 😞
Cancel culture ruined everything

steve martin in a martial arts scene was hilarious lol
Ooooh I can totally see why this movie doesn’t air anymore, gold chains was subtle lol
Sometimes it does air on TV once in a while
Steve has always been 50yrs old
Steve Martin was ripped... Guy was an incredible physical specimen.
That fact he had half a karate uniform on under his robe still funny🤣🤣🤣🤣 pay to the order of Iron Balls McGinty $1.09🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I cant imagine how confusing this scene must be for people who havent seen the movie.
I know that feeling that's for sure.
I saw this as a kid, I could not stop laughing when he he responded and at this fight scene 😂
What did he say?
@@magyaradam
“You are TALKING to a ____”!!
@@patrickc3419 talking to a line?
If they try to cancel Steve, or this movie- we riot.
Won't happen, everyone loves Steve
He got cancelled for calling Carrie Fisher a “creature” 🙄
Holy Christ Bernadette Peters was a fox.
I LOVED Mabel King as his mom
And Bernadette Peters as the love interest.
@@CraigMcfly1985 yes!!!!!
I am both surprised and delighted to see that this is still on UA-cam.
Did anyone notice that is Lenny Montana who played Luca Brasi in the Godfather? The big Italian guy with the cigar. Pretty cool.
I did
Looks different
Same film location as in the original Godfather movie as well.
You could never write this scene today.
You could write it...just wouldn't be made into a movie.
Yes you could. Tarantino writes things with language like that all the time.
@@teamhex Yeah, but Tarantino is black. So he gets away with it.
We're going to have to start hiding stuff like this, kinda like Farenheit 451.
@@johnnymcblaze. Um, his father is Italian, And his mother is Irish, it doesn't get any whiter than that.

I love Steve Martin, this scene as a kid had me in stitches 😂😭😂 represent Steve 😂😭
". . . doesn't realize he's dealing with sophisticated people here."
Yeah, I’m gonna need a physical copy of this movie.
I DON'T KNOW YOU!
THATS MY PURSE!
That was the legendary Gene Label in that scene....toughest SOB around.
This is my favorite scene out of the entire movie.
I think mine is when the madman drops off the letter and has to sign for it and runs away and throws the popcorn in his face.
Fresh wine!
Prune Juice for Worf!! ...Warriors drink from planet Earth .🤔😃😎
Klingons actually , of all the federation actually are the most genetically related to humans ...just don't mess with them when they are a a couple
No matter how many times I have gone to a fancy restaurant I still think of the restaurant part
Holy shit, that's Judo Gene Lebell! I didn't know he was a racist real estate tycoon
Bro Steve Martin's been like old forever lmao dude has Grey hair and it wasn't even 1980 yet lol
Yeah Steve went grey so early he looks the same as he has for over 30 years 😂
my favorite thing is how cartoony it is when he reacts to kicking that guy in the nuts. like something right outta classic looney tunes
0:30 In case no one noticed, that big guy with the white hair talking about the "eggplants" is Lenny Montana, who played Luca Brasi in The Godfather.
Always found this scene hilarious ever since i saw it from a young age
"ah x amount, that's very good isnt it?"
One of the funniest films ever.
Ah good, getting around the crap.
Of course, they'll eat the vegetables.
My favorite black actor
Ah, x amount.
The red haired guy is "Judo" Gene Lebell.
Nice find!
One legit badass...
Gene was on the Green Hornet. He taught Bruce Lee judo and grappling moves.
It's pitiful that such a comedic masterpiece could never be made today and will probably be "cancelled" and memory holed one day.
I love the heat of the night ref.
This and Blazing Saddles... classics.
Back when comedy wasn't so PC. You couldn't get away with this today.
@CountZurich did you erase your comment. That was hilarious. Thank you for not being PC.
if you guys get the chance, go back and watch Blazing Saddles. you will not believe how great it is. and how you could never run that movie today because of the racist obama people being too sensitive.

They showed blazing saddles recently on tv.

You must be adorably naive if you think things have changed that much.
_Watch out! ..The PC boogeyman might get you!_ ...lol
RUBBER UNDIES how much was it edited from the original to make it more pc and have more time for commercials?

+Shades Below Yes he was, though to me he will always be either Iron Balls McGinty or Meadows the Amity reporter.
TV edits movies. best to watch the original unedited version
"eggplants" --I never heard that one before.
moulinyan's, eggplant in italian....
so that is what they mean when they call blacks "moulies"
Eric Matterson yessir, very lowkey racist as fuck.
+Eric Matterson Moullies is short for the Italian word of Moulian which is a slang word for black
+Marius Noneofyoubusiness Thx
This scene is gold! One of Steve Martin”s best films! Lls
Never seen the movie. I was laughing for like 5 minutes
He stepped up to protect his people.
How could you know that was iron balls Mcguinty? LMFAO!!!
i have whaded his 100 times and it nevr gets old
one of the best movies to ever exist.
This was definitely one of the most memorable parts from the movie
I love how they fall slowly after being punched and kicked
The title shoulda been "Iron Balls McGinty"
I was today-years old when I noticed the big silver-haired guy smoking the cigar is Luca Brasi from The Godfather
Best thing i ever saw. Shouldve won an oscar.
I just watched another clip and it made me think of this scene. Thanks for posting, I remembered it as "I happen to be a n****r" instead of "Sir, you are talking to a n*****r". Got to get such a funny scene right!
The big guy is Lenny Montana, who played Luca Brasi in "The Godfather". It looks like Gene Lebell is there, too.
Bring us some fresh wine.
BEST STEVE MARTIN MOVIE EVAH!
This part of the movie cracked me up.
What about his special purpose?
Those were the days, beautiful comedy
It exposes the stupidity of racism. Anyone who doesn't understand that, doesn't understand the movie.
I don’t think it exposes anything. Its just a funny joke. You’re talking about a scene where a guy hurts his foot because he tried to kick testicles made of iron. Theres really no need to try to make it all deep
LOL... Yeah, this movie was made to teach morality... PUTZ!
Nah it’s just a joke
That's Gene Lebell in the Blue suit. Who is a black belt in judo and uncle of Rhonda Rousey
The jerk walked so Forrest could run
Sir....u r talkinh...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I’m not even mad. Only him and Robert Downey Jr. in tropic thunder can get away with this humor haha
I same the movie in 79 I was 16 and I've never forgot the scene 😂
I like how he pulls the robe off like that’s his big reveal but he has a karate black belt underneath
Bring me some FRESH wine!
one of my favorite scenes from the movie
The wine line always gets me.
I don't know why, but this scene kinda reminds me of "Scarface"
Scarface??? steve martin would have to take a chainsaw to the guys.
I think that was the same house the movie producer in the first Godfather film lived at before waking up with the horse's head under his sheets.
@@jkeegan154 they kept the eggplants out in the godfather too
Yep. Looks like Sosa's estate. Only thing missing is Suarez hanging from a helicopter.
WHOA, paul Thomas!!!
Where Rachel Dolezal took her cues... 0:54
I love this scene!
He doesn't realize that he's dealing with sophisticated people here 😂
You could never get away with this movie today.
I was a sophomore in high school when this was released. Still friends with the gal I took to it. We both still qoute it lol…
Awesome
What a great date film LOL
Ah of course, they'll eat the vegetables! Classic
I constantly call my kids "(adjective noun) McGinty"
My favorite scene out of the whole movie.lol
