I interpret ol' limpet as a sad man who's best pal is slammin his wife. As a result ol' limpy decides to do himself in by jumping into the ocean, his one true peace in life. The rest of the movie is made up of his dying thoughts of another life, under the sea. What could've been if I were a fish. Quite profound, quite touching. RIP limpy... RIP
As a Seasoned Fishkeeper (aquarist if you will). 6:22 None of these fish should be kept together. You have goldfish, Anglefish, and gourami. This is mixing tropical and non tropical fish together (those that need heated and unheated water). I dont see a heater or a filter. So in normal circumstances these fish would last a week (and also that tank is just ugly and poorly arranged with way to many fish). Glad they had room in the budget to hire and listen to a fish expert.
My dad showed me this when I was a kid. When my mom came in and asked what we were watching, without blinking he responded with “Mr. Limpet, the movie where Don Knotts wants to bang a fish.”
I’ve always had extremely vague, spotty recollections of a movie where a man with circular glasses becomes a fish- turns out I saw this once when I was about 3 years old. holy shit, the sheer amount of deja vu/nostalgia whiplash I got when I saw this in my recommended. WOW.
At Disneyland, there is a hidden Mr. Limpet fish figure in the Little Mermaid ride during the Under the Sea scene! A lot of the animators on the movie also worked for Disney
Can you imagine the wife next time she sees her family? “I heard your married to your husband’s friend now. What happened to you first husband?” “He’s a fish” “…”
I’m glad you mentioned that Don Knotts was in the Andy Griffin show. That show may not be everyone’s cup of tea but as someone who grew up watching it and had parents who watched it, I can confirm Don Knotts was an incredible actor and comedian.

@@stuffiequeen1764 the angelfish are from south America and need warm water usually 78-82. Goldfish need water around 68-74. Goldfish are probably one of the most mistreated captive fish. The tanks are always way small which will keep them from growing but their organs keep growing and shortens the lifespan by alot. They can get way bigger than what most people are capable of putting them in. It sucks

"We have banana splits and zip lines!" Thank you Scott. I needed a reason to keep going, and reminding me what it means to be human really lifts my spirits
So, this movie actually gave me a weird existential crisis when I was younger. I think i was so afraid of turning into a fish because I was so unhappy with my life and then having regrets and not being able to change back. I love Don Knotts but this movie scared me.
That's pretty much a basis for all of my fears as a kid... I regret not telling my parents about these fears since it took me a very very long time to get over them XD I'm over it now so XD
Welp now the wife knows how ken feels from bee movie. Never knew I would live in a world where a man falls in love with a fish and a woman falls in love with a bee.
There’s also a reference in The Little Mermaid during “Under The Sea”. When a bunch of fish point at Ariel, one of the looks exactly like the Mr. Limpet fish.
"With new weapons being devolved all the time what if men were foolish enough to destroy themselves completely? Then the fish in the ocean would develop into a new race of man and they might turn out better!" I'm pretty sure you just described the plot of Splatoon.
7:21 This is why the movie is hot garbage. Man doesn't even know anything about fish. Keeping angelfish and goldfish in the same tank with barbs, disgusting. Just thought I'd channel my inner Fish for Thought
I saw this film once as a little kid and I was so confused. I could not fathom why anybody would want to be a fish. Then, when he fell in love with the lady fish I was upset because I thought he was married already and child me couldn't understand why anyone would be unfaithful to their spouse. I wasn't even sure if it was a real memory so thanks for dredging it up sir
When I was young me and my dad fell asleep on the couch while the tv was still on. I eventually woke up at around 3 am and this movie had just started (mind you I'm like 11 years old). I watched every second of this movie and was confused for about every second of it. It's A Classic.
I thought you weren't going to address the tension between the wife and the best friend. 😂 Even when he was a human the wife and friend seemed a little too close
Yes! Can you blame Henry for wanting to get away from his bitter battleaxe wife and sweaty, obnoxious best friend? Makes you wonder how they ended up together in the first place.
My theory is Henry was aware his wife was having an affair with his buddy - and the three of them were perfectly happy with the arrangement. (I mean, someone who wants to be a fish is probably not all that comfortable with mammalian intercourse, but prefers procreation where there's no physical contact between the male & female.)
It honestly does not matter what this man covers he is the literally the only commentary channel that I genuinely find myself laughing at. (This concludes my wholesome comment thank you.)
I loved Don Knotts on The Andy Griffith Show as a kid and as a result, loved this movie. I haven't seen it since I was like 7 and seeing this now...*shivers*.
Me: In the middle of watching Scott Cramer's new video Phone Notifications: I am here to interrupt you to let you know that Scott Cramer posted a new UA-cam video
This was one of my favorite movies growing up. The ghost and mr.chicken was also up there (For reference , I was born in 2003 but grew up watching everything don knotts)
I would LOVE to see you commentate the “Class Action Park” documentary. Even if you just want to watch it on your own time, it’s a great doc and totally your style.
My dad came up behind me and said "is that the incredible Mr. Limpit?" I was like, yes? And he responded with "that it a great movie!!! You remember it?" (to my mother) "yeah, that's the one about the fish?" "Yeah, that's a great movie, you should watch it!" Wtf? Why did you know the name by just the way the fish looked? Like it was a scene where just Mr. limpit was swimming around, nothing crazy. I am so conserned for the collective of our parents now.
Why are children movies so weird, like the special effects and design is so interesting, yet so unappealing, yet appealing, I love your videos and I can’t wait to watch this one because I’m super interested in movies and film especially old weird ones! And I love all of your videos
i saw this movie with my grandmother, and seeing her be so happy that i was watching it made me happy. she’s gone now, and that’s a fond memory of her i hold onto. but yeah this movie is weird
I used to love this movie as a kid, I watched it a lot. It's sentimental to me for sure. Your mom's impression is so hilarious, I appreciated this review. What a weirdass movie.
I can’t believe I just found this piece of my lost media! Watched this in my early childhood and couldn’t find the name of the movie for 17 years. Thank you!
-"Are you gay?" -"Gay?! I wish! If I were gay there'd be no problem! No, what I have is a romantic abnormality, one so unbelievable that it must be hidden from the public at all cost. You see..."
I thought this was a fever dream that I made up in my head one day, the only thing I remember of this movie was watching it at a science camp and someone in the movie went overboard a ship and turned into a fish.
Me to my mom brought limpet dvd home we watched it when I was like 5 and I thought it was soooo weird I still think it is LOOK AT HOW EXCITED HE IS WHEN HE SAYS MATING HABBITS IN CLAMS THATS NOT HEALTHY
The scene at 6:46 actually kinda looks like a scene in a horror movie. Like this scene right here could’ve set up an epic villain twist for Henry... Oh well
I remember this movie from my childhood. It was at a day care as one of the only VHSs, I’m glad I’m not the only child who was exposed to it. Side note, Scott’s family is so wholesome
My dad showed this to me as a kid, I’m pretty sure it scared me lol. My husband is listening over my shoulder and said it was a deeply repressed memory
Fun Fact: The scene where the German U-boat wolf pack was set in a line was originally a animation scene seen in the movie “Action in the North Atlantic 1943”
I remember this movie came on tv one time I was visiting my parents and my dad was like "I LOVE THIS MOVIE" so out of curiosity I joined in watching. Needless to say I instantly realized the difference in our interests... I ended up riffing the movie the whole time and was confused why my dad liked it so much... but I guess it has something to do with the bizarre nature of it - zoophilia and such things were not a widely discussed or known thing back in the day, so the idea of a man wanting to be with fishes was viewed as funny/silly... then there's also the strange overt patriotism...

6:20 you'd think that if he loved fish so much he wouldn't be really overstocking his tank and abusing them
Back when this movie was made abusing animals was normal lol.
He wouldn’t be housing cold water fish and tropical fish together either
5:45 is a little closer I think
Luckily goldfish CAN live at more tropical temps, but I didn’t see a heater on that tank soooooooooo 🤷🏻♀️ not to mention the amount of waste put out by the species in there, goldfish especially
Those fish were probably only in that tank together long enough for the scene, but sadly, I doubt they survived long afterward.
I'm several years older than Don Knotts was when he made this film, and I look half his age at the time. That dude never looked younger than 62.

I thought you weren't going to address the tension between the wife and the best friend. 😂 Even when he was a human the wife and friend seemed a little too close
Yes!
Can you blame Henry for wanting to get away from his bitter battleaxe wife and sweaty, obnoxious best friend?
Makes you wonder how they ended up together in the first place.
My theory is Henry was aware his wife was having an affair with his buddy - and the three of them were perfectly happy with the arrangement. (I mean, someone who wants to be a fish is probably not all that comfortable with mammalian intercourse, but prefers procreation where there's no physical contact between the male & female.)
I’m still trying to figure out how a Henry kept his glasses on
Cartoon powers, like when a tiny character unzips its apparent skin to reveal a much larger one...
I think they're pince-nez glasses that are held up on the bridge of the nose
WHAT nose?!@@MadameSomnambule
6:13 Henry may not be able to swim, but George is in the Navy and swims like a two year old...
It honestly does not matter what this man covers he is the literally the only commentary channel that I genuinely find myself laughing at.
(This concludes my wholesome comment thank you.)
Honestly same here 😆
Found this in my recommended after 29 seconds. For once UA-cam got something right.
same, except its been 28 minutes
i feel like i'm the only person for whom youtube works perfectly fine lol
I love how dad is all like ''i'm not getting caught in this crossfire of hot takes...''
I'm pretty sure I only saw this movie once when I was like 6 years old, and for the past 12 years I've thought it was just a really weird fever dream
Same 😅 I tried to explain it to my family and they thought I was crazy
Wait, you remember things from 6 years old?
@@maxime9158 Yeah. I remember things as early as 3 tbh
@@averythesuperhero ...👁👄👁... ah... udshhshebshshuz lmao that's cool
@@maxime9158 did you have a stroke while writing your reply?
your mom is so wholesome omg bless her
I loved Don Knotts on The Andy Griffith Show as a kid and as a result, loved this movie. I haven't seen it since I was like 7 and seeing this now...*shivers*.
So you’re telling me we’re NOT supposed to sleep with cartoon fish??!! Why am I only hearing this now?
undertale fans must be raging
The fish puns in this are on a whole other scale
I know, holy carp
*Scale*

Me: In the middle of watching Scott Cramer's new video
Phone Notifications: I am here to interrupt you to let you know that Scott Cramer posted a new UA-cam video
Same thing happened to me just now as you can see it takes an hour if not longer for youtube to notify me
This was one of my favorite movies growing up. The ghost and mr.chicken was also up there
(For reference , I was born in 2003 but grew up watching everything don knotts)
I would LOVE to see you commentate the “Class Action Park” documentary. Even if you just want to watch it on your own time, it’s a great doc and totally your style.
My dad came up behind me and said "is that the incredible Mr. Limpit?"
I was like, yes? And he responded with "that it a great movie!!! You remember it?" (to my mother) "yeah, that's the one about the fish?" "Yeah, that's a great movie, you should watch it!"
Wtf? Why did you know the name by just the way the fish looked? Like it was a scene where just Mr. limpit was swimming around, nothing crazy. I am so conserned for the collective of our parents now.
They didn't have as many movies growing up, especially animated ones.
@@SatanenPerkele NO IT'S NOT
Why are children movies so weird, like the special effects and design is so interesting, yet so unappealing, yet appealing, I love your videos and I can’t wait to watch this one because I’m super interested in movies and film especially old weird ones! And I love all of your videos
i saw this movie with my grandmother, and seeing her be so happy that i was watching it made me happy. she’s gone now, and that’s a fond memory of her i hold onto. but yeah this movie is weird
The beginning with the Cramer family was painfully wholesome. I felt like i was goofing off with my own family
the face the hermit crab makes at 9:25 is killing me he's like >:(
Ok so basically Henry just really wants the plot of Splatoon to be come reality
Both hilarious and incredibly unsettling all in one
You're kid now, you're a fish now.
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one to think this lol
GAHAHAHAHAHAHAGAGAH
@@Rybread52 Same
I absolutely adored seeing his family interacting over their divided opinions on the movie. ❤️🤣
Definitely need more vids with his fam
His mom's very pretty, tho
"I wish I was a fish, fish have better lives"
Whilst stating at a ridiculously over stocked tank
I used to love this movie as a kid, I watched it a lot. It's sentimental to me for sure. Your mom's impression is so hilarious, I appreciated this review. What a weirdass movie.
I can’t believe I just found this piece of my lost media! Watched this in my early childhood and couldn’t find the name of the movie for 17 years. Thank you!
the animated part gives me major Pinocchio underwater vibes especially when Scott spoke with the water voice thing
I used to watch this movie with my grandma when she'd baby sit me and I now know how strange it is
-"Are you gay?"
-"Gay?! I wish! If I were gay there'd be no problem! No, what I have is a romantic abnormality, one so unbelievable that it must be hidden from the public at all cost. You see..."
I wouldn't be surprised if they borrowed that plot point from Limpet.
Where is that from?
@@aceofspades3667 - Oooohhh I think it’s from Arrested Development 😂😂 Look up Tobias Funke gay compilation, it’ll probably be in there
@@aceofspades3667
Simpsons did it. It's Troy McClure from the episode where he marries Selma (or Patty).
Idk y but that episode is hilarious to me
Well, I certainly give the movie props for not being predictable.
I thought this was a fever dream that I made up in my head one day, the only thing I remember of this movie was watching it at a science camp and someone in the movie went overboard a ship and turned into a fish.
Maybe this is the movie that inspired Guillermo del Toro to make The Shape of Water.
Scott's family is exactly how I imagine his family would be like. the vibe is AMAZING.
My mom convinced me and my siblings to rent this from Blockbuster back in the day. She hated us so much
Me to my mom brought limpet dvd home we watched it when I was like 5 and I thought it was soooo weird I still think it is LOOK AT HOW EXCITED HE IS WHEN HE SAYS MATING HABBITS IN CLAMS THATS NOT HEALTHY
I remember this movie! I had totally forgotten the title and everything else about it, but I definitely watched it as a child in the early 90s.
The scene at 6:46 actually kinda looks like a scene in a horror movie. Like this scene right here could’ve set up an epic villain twist for Henry... Oh well
yeah i was honestly expecting like a GMO fish girl situation and they'd have to escape a judgemental society or whatever
I remember this movie from my childhood. It was at a day care as one of the only VHSs, I’m glad I’m not the only child who was exposed to it. Side note, Scott’s family is so wholesome
Still better than cocomelon...
So many times I thought Scott edited something in. And it was actually part of this movie, sheez.
“It’s only about a man wanting to . . . Marry a fish”
Nice choice of wording in front of your parents there 😂
You can HEAR them trying to hold back the “fuck”
My dad showed this to me as a kid, I’m pretty sure it scared me lol. My husband is listening over my shoulder and said it was a deeply repressed memory

RIP Don Knotts.....you were an incredible actor
I imagine wheb he died he was actually isekaied as a fish, swimming around now protecting us from the Chinese. God bless Don Knotts.
Fun Fact: The scene where the German U-boat wolf pack was set in a line was originally a animation scene seen in the movie “Action in the North Atlantic 1943”
I remember this movie came on tv one time I was visiting my parents and my dad was like "I LOVE THIS MOVIE" so out of curiosity I joined in watching.
Needless to say I instantly realized the difference in our interests...
I ended up riffing the movie the whole time and was confused why my dad liked it so much... but I guess it has something to do with the bizarre nature of it - zoophilia and such things were not a widely discussed or known thing back in the day, so the idea of a man wanting to be with fishes was viewed as funny/silly...
then there's also the strange overt patriotism...
