  • Jay, Mike, and a man known only as Milwaukee Culkin dive into one of the greatest films ever made: Pee-Wee's Big Adventure. A film described as "Lightning in a bottle" by Jay himself. A magical moment in cinematic history when the stars at night aligned deep in the heart of Texas. A movie that plows along at a rapid pace of a haunted semi and takes no moment to indulge in overly bloated CGI trash. The film does fire off a series of short, carefully executed comedic set pieces all the while asking the question of what's really important in life - a physical possession or real life experiences, newly forged relationships and friendships, and growing as an individual. Pee-Wee's Big Adventure is a masterpeewee of cinematic art. R.I.P - Paul Reubens, Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, and Milton Berle's gigantic c*ck.

      yeah that's my take too. It's almost like a trip into the world that little kids imagine their adult lives would be like, before their hopes and dreams inevitably get crushed by reality. I think that's part of why it's such a good all-ages movie as well. kids can appreciate the goofy stuff, while adults can appreciate the almost escapist and nostalgic feelings that come from unironically embracing that goofiness.

    • @fardobaggins8472

      He isn't embracing the goofiness, he IS his goofiness personified in the Pee wee character. In a way he treated kids like adults and adults like kids.

  • @Tom-rg2ex
    @Tom-rg2ex 8 місяців тому +167

    Macauley makes a really good point about all the one-liners in that movie being very different from what you'll see in contemporary comedies. This movie has so much acting talent going into characters saying only one line, if they even say anything at all (Amazing Larry is one of the most memorable characters and he's in it for a couple of seconds saying nothing). It's a comedy where your laughs *don't* exclusively come from jokes set in setup and punchline (even though there's plently of setups and punchines anyway, like Pee-Wee in the phonebooth proving he's in Texas, or Pee-Wee triumphant splat through a billboard); every one-off character is basically delivering a painting in a moving frame with their acting, whose imagery as an artistic visual expression, and the intent of that expression is to make you chuckle at something dumb. It's incredible, it's the kind of movie that you can't even believe got made from the Hollywood movie system. So much art went into this movie and about a guy in a crew cut, red bowtie, and leather shoes somehow colored white, completely amazing and crazy and unexplainable.

      I've never seen the this movie but I always remember an early Scorsese movie and the lead actor is in a restaurant or a late night coffee shop or something talking to a woman and some random guy is sat at the back mimicking all the mannerism the guy is doing for no particular reason . And in the Al Pacino movie Sea of Love when he's walking down the street towards the end talking to Ellen Barkin character and an extra or just some man trying to get to work literally walks into Pacino and shoulder blocks him out the way, that was definitely unscripted and just got left in.

      Jan Hooks was so tragic. From what I've read she was so crippled by stage fright and anxiety she basically became a functioning alcoholic just to be able to perform, and then she lost interest in performing and just became a full-blown alcoholic and only worked so she could keep her SAG insurance (and buy booze I guess)

It makes the whole thing LOOK huge and like they were hiding out down below. All 80s kids saw that movie I’m sure. Jim Bowie gets blown up in the powder keg room, sacrifices himself. I mean it’s been forever since I watched it but it looks like there’s a basement dammit lol. It’s an absolutely traumatizing movie.

    Man, I loved this movie SO much as a kid (still do). Going back to it now it's always so strange cause some of the shots I now see were jokes were instead 'pure horror' to me as a child, and rewatching I get like a surge of that feeling's memory. I'm not even talking Large Marge, she was classic -- but like Pee Wee driving at night and the signs getting more and more ridiculous -- for some reason I got this weird sense of horror and dread as a 5 year old :P it's a bizarre and amazing movie

    I have a theory that our society and history as a whole started it’s full on brakes off decline with the passing of Phil Hartman. You can even mark the decline of quality of the Simpsons directly to when he passed. He might have been some kind of very important magical hinge on reality

    • @MidlifeCrisisJoe
      @MidlifeCrisisJoe 8 місяців тому +3

      I want to believe in this theory. I remember as a kid when I heard about his death when it happened. Someone told me "that Simpsons Guy died" and after I listed off half the regular cast and being told "no, that's not him" every time finally asking if my friend telling me this "Phil Hartman?" very quizzically. He confirmed that with a "yeah," and at first, I was relieved because it meant they wouldn't have to cancel the Simpsons, as he wasn't a main character. But then after a moment's thought and remembering all the other stuff I'd seen him in from SNL to a bunch of movies, and then especially when I learned just how tragic his death really was, it ended up being the only celebrity death that really deeply affected me.
      Obviously it must've, because I still remember a lot of the details of hearing about it vividly. Like, it was childhood me's "where were you when Kennedy was shot?" moment. And frankly, it doesn't make any sense that such a death *should* have been so impactful. I never knew him personally, was mostly too young to have watched a lot of SNL he was in, and he was never a headlining actor or a major force in politics, culture or entertainment. Heck, I'd never even played Blasto.
      But once the news came about and people who knew him talked about him, it became obvious how connected he was to so many people and how positive he'd been in so many people's lives. The man apparently had been a fulcrum for a lot of positivity in the world. So I can kind see that Hartman's death caused this kind of psychic negativity feedback loop. It made someone else's life just that much worse, who made someone else's life just that much worse and so on and so forth until you get to today . . . and now we're so apathetic no one's even caring that people are letting murderers walk free on the regular.
