"Nobody makes me bleed my own blood." I've repeated this so many times over the years.
Same, lol
*Gawd. If you have to repeat it so many times...*
Same 😂
One of the greatest lines ever written 😀
It's a good line, considering it was stolen from the first season of the Simpsons, originally said by Nelson Muntz in Season 1 Episode 5 "Bart the General", just slightly changed, "... You made me bleed my own blood."
Fun fact: Justin Long was the first one to film the dogging balls scenes and they used a professional softball pitch machine on full speed. Vince Vaughn went second and said “what the fuck!? who would do that!? turn that shit down to low NOW” and the crew was like “Justin did the whole thing on high and might have a sever concussion” lmaooo
That would explain alot about Justin! 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
This is more practical
Feel bad that Justin didnt feel like he had the gravitas yet to ask them to turn the machine down for his own safety. Glad Vince came in and put an end to that nonsense. Both are really good dudes in real life from all accounts
@@RDSports5 You have literally no idea if that had anything to do with it. Just making up toxic stories. Gtfo.
"I sure do like pumpkins Cotton."
Jason Bateman and Gary Cole are fantastic as the announcers.
effin A LordVolkov, effin A.
That's rad!!🤣
Right you are!
Bateman is a master.
Word
The fact that Ben and Christine are married in real life and in every movie they loathe each other is one of the funniest running jokes ever.
Idk, she thought he had a "fine brain" in Tropic Thunder😂😂😂
Ben Stiller's parents(Jerry & Anne) did the same thing their whole acting careers, so I bet that's where he got the idea from
@@RobertJuzstone They were the nice couple who owned the camp together in Heavyweights though.
@@RobertJuzstone I seem to remember they had a show on HBO years ago called "Stiller & Meara," does that sound right? It was great!
If you look closely at the wall in the scene where she slams his face into it, you can see his makeup came off. So she actually DID slam his face into it! 😆
"It's a bold strategy Cotton. Let's see of it pays off." Is legitimately a phrase i use in real life.
Same haha
The guy who yells "Go back to Treasure Island" is the Director. He gave himself a cameo.
In a movie filled with hilarious lines and scenes, nothing made me laugh harder than anything Jason Bateman says. His delivery is fantastic.
"bold strategy cotton"
"Yeah, he will not be able to see very well, Cotton"
"F-N-A Cotton, F-N-ehhhhhhhhh!"
You usually pay double for that Cotton
"I'm shocked!"
“I see you caught the scent of a lesser stag in your nostrils.” Most underrated line in this movie
Underrated by whom? Who do you think you’re speaking for?
How is it underrated?
As many times that I've watched this movie, I never noticed that the treasure chest at the end filled with Peter's winnings had "Deus Ex Machina" written on the front of it.
Lol, me either🤣
That is actually a protest from the director. In Dodgeball's original ending, Peter and his team were supposed to lose everything and Globo Gym was going to win. But the studio didn't want that ending, and forced the director to make a new ending where Peter wins. In quiet rebellion, the chest is marked "Deus Ex Machina" (God in the Machine) which is a writing term for an (often implausible) plot device to bring about a contrived ending.
Ex means "from" or "out of", not "in".
(Too many years of Latin class to let that slide)
@@vincegamer Ah yes you are correct. The story is true though, bad Latin not withstanding.
@@jupiterrising887 I've seen that alternate ending on the Blu-ray, but there's no way that's real(as unintentionally funny as it is). That had to be a gag extra feature. If they'd ended the movie like that, it would've bombed.
I love how Samantha's smile just dropped when they pulled the BDSM gear out of the box.
So many great lines in this!! And the Lance Armstrong cameo is even funnier now given all that we know!
what do we know? that he was on steriods? fyi so was everyone he was competing against so its not a big deal....
@@ygkemosabi8280 My guess would be that he was blood doping, received a life time ban, lost all his medals and then admitted to it. Just a guess though...
"Our roided up guy beat your roided up guy."
- Bill Burr
@@MegaBollard yeaaa.... so not a big deal, still the only cyclist people know lol
@@MegaBollard also didnt he admit to it before they found out? savage
"I thought she was still in play. We're sweating like grease monkeys out here, I can't hold onto a ball." 😂😂
That's my excuse when I screw up and my wife is pissed at me.
@@tomclutz705 Bahahahaha
5 D's of Dodgeball, Dodge, Duck, Dip, Dive and Dodge. Miss movies like this. Remember seeing this in theater's back then lol
"Nobody makes me bleed my own blood!" Classic! 😂
I'll never forget that after this movie came out, Game Show Network cashed in on the popularity and put on a dodgeball tournament of their own. Pretty sure I was one of only like, 13 people who watched it but it's embedded in my memory.
I remember that too but I thought it was on comedy central. Plus I do remember one of the players on the German team in the movie was one of the players because there was a pro league at the time and many of them were used in the movie as the other teams.
1:35 Old School (2003)
yes, please.
Dodgeball, Old School and Wedding Crashers are 3 of the greatest comedies of all time and made Vince Vaughn a comedy legend for life.
Bateman's lines and hairdo always make me smile.
One of the most underrated movies ever. Jason Bateman as the commentator is so perfect. I really enjoyed your reaction.
ESPN 8 "The Ocho" If it's almost a sport, we got it here!!
Justin Long's physical comedy in this movie is massively underrated lol when he can't catch the beer and then takes the beer explosion right in the face when he opens it, I die laughing lol
"Hallmark doesn't make a card that says, 'I'm sorry your coach got crushed by 5 tons of irony.' "
If you can dodge traffic, you can dodge a ball.
An extremely underrated Ben Stiller film is *The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.* Stiller directs and stars. Ive yet to meet anyone who didnt like it, and the ending is freaking AWESOME.
What makes the repulsion from Christine Taylor's character toward Ben Stiller's character even better is that they've been married to each other in real life for decades. Also, I've seen some people recommend them, but I also highly recommend Zoolander, Heavyweights and Mystery Men for Ben Stiller!
Joanie Loves Chachi!
Gets me every time. It was a kind of obscure TV show spin off from Happy Days.
Always loved that Hank Azaria cameo, talking in exactly the kind of voice you’d hear him do on The Simpsons.
One of the commentators is from office space too, he played Bill Lumberg lol
Revisiting this film in anticipation of your reaction was so much fun - it's aged SO well, I laughed just as hard as the first time I saw it. And something I never picked up on before was the absolutely perfect symbolism of Peter using the bribe money against White. White's whole angle was to undermine Peter's confidence and Peter turned around and LITERALLY bet on himself to win. Brilliant.
One of the most quotable movies ever. And then ofc u got ur usual Jason Bateman cameo😂 he makes a random appearance in every movie I stg and I love it everytime
“Friggin’ Chuck Norris.” - paraphrasing White Goodman
Also, please watch the comedy Mallrats (1995)
I have to admit, You two have best and clearest reviews to listen to than any other reactionary video. You interpret a movie well.
Late 90s/early 00 movies are awesome. So unPC and so funny. “Waiting…” should be next.
One of the funniest sports comedy movies ever made!
There are talks of a sequel to the movie, and as of April 2023, a sequel is in development
Can't wait
Hope it isn't garbage like most comedy sequel comebacks decades later. Could be legendary tho
M😊h
Cotton was the boss in Office Space, too (along with the stapler guy). Also, please watch Mystery Men - it's a Ben Stiller must-see!!!! P.S. 'Joanie Loves Chachi' was a short-lived spin off of Happy Days. Ben Stiller really dug deep for that obscure reference! lol
Justin Longs physical comedy in this movie is amazing, Kills it in every scene!
I quote any of Jason Bateman's lines on the regular 😂😂 He's just too funny!
- Still keeping my fingers crossed that you two watch A Fish Called Wanda someday soon -
This to me was always a kind of spiritual successor to my favorite movie of all time (as a kid, and now as a bigger kid) Heavyweights.
Classic 90's kid comedy.
Ben Stiller,Vince Vaughn and Jason Bateman are together in another 2000s comedy, Starsky and Hutch along with Will Ferrell and Owen Wilson. I would recommend it.
MYSTERY MEN w Ben Stiller and Janeane Garofalo and Pee Wee Herman is also a hilarious weird movie that I hope you get to watch❤😃
@bluegypsy71 That's a classic too! :)
I shovel well. I shovel VERY well.
You guys gotta see Overboard (1987) w/ Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, I think Sam would love it
Love Overboard
Yes! my favorite romcom
good call! I think they only choose via patreon suggestions.
@@JoeyMartz I'm a patron too 💪
Accepted is my favorite Justin Long movie, a very funny and underrated movie IMO.
Hell yes 😄😂 love him in that
That was a great idea for a movie.
He is good in that movie. And it's hilarious. 😂
My cousin and I literally say "touche" back and forth to each other all the time because of this movie, even if the word doesn't really fit into the conversation. LOL
This movie is legendary lmao you’ll be quoting the rest of your life
Stephen Root also great in ""Get Out" and "Oh Brother Where Art Thou", both in which he played a blind man.
Rip Torn is a classic actor going back to the 50s who is a fun part of the Men in Black Franchise.
Missi Pile (monobrow Fran) is imho one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood, best known for Galaxy Quest.
"You couldn´t hit water, if you felt out of a boat!"
It's gotta be the hair, Cotton. Feathered AND lethal!
jesus i forgot how hysterical this movie is.
Two fun facts about this movie:
Ben Stiller basically just replayed his character from Heavyweights, a comedy from the 90s where he played a narcissistic abusive fitness instructor. That one is pretty funny as well, especially after seeing the exact same character in Dodgeball first. The similarities are uncanny.
The end of this movie was originally supposed to have GloboGym win the dodgeball tournament and the Average Joes go home having lost everything to them. This was a subtle joke to tie into the tagline: “a TRUE underdog story”, as in a realistic one. However, it fared poorly with test audiences, so they changed it at the last second to this ending. That’s why you see fat White Goodman at the end complaining “Good guy wins, bad guy loses. Big friggin surprise. That’s the problem with American cinema. Can’t handle any complexity in it. ‘Don’t make me think! I just want to be entertained!’" That bit was aimed at the test audiences who preferred a happy ending.
The pirate is Alan Tudyk, Wash from Firefly.
If I recall correctly, the original ending had Global Gym winning. But the ending didn't test well with audiences, so that's why they added the line violation/sudden death bit.
It's also why they had the credits scene with Stiller's character criticizing audiences not being able to handle complexity in movies.
But they definitely made the right call to change the ending.
I love the funny, incredibly un-PC comedy movies of the 00's.
Ikr it was the best time for comedy in general
Old School is another classic
@@belachaney We're going streaking!
@@belachaney - I found OS overrated... I may be in the minority here.
Yeah it's a shame people wouldn't have the balls to make movies like this today. Rather it be they're scared of losing money, or scared of being cancelled. Wokeness (political correctness) has done absolutely nothing of benefit to anything tbh. We just over-corrected and cranked it to an 11.
One of those movies that you always forget how amazing it is.
And Jason Bateman’s performance…. Perfection!
Whatta say Cotton!?
Yep, would love to see you two react to Old School for some more Vince Vaughn (among others)!
To this day, "you're about as useful as a poop flavored lollipop" is my favorite line and never miss an opportunity to say it to someone! 😂
Such a shame you were deprived of the original version!
"To ensure a PG-13 rating, two lines were changed in the US version:
Original: "You all are about as useful as a cock-flavored lollipop" US: "You all are about as useful as a poopie-flavored lollipop."
It wasn’t poop flavoured it was cock flavoured.
Other Ben Stiller films to watch are Heavyweights and Zoolander. Wedding Crashers and Four Christmases are other great comedies starring Vince Vaughn worth watching together
Seconding Heavyweights. What a fantastic early villain role for Ben (and possible White Goodman origin story)
@@LordVolkovI think about heavyweights at least once a year because of the Ben stiller ice breaking scene 😂
Putting in a request for Heavyweights too! It's my favourite Disney movie lmao
@@DannyBedo For me it's the trainer being 'attacked' by the wildlife.
@@DannyBedo it's my 'I'm sick and just want to sit in bed' movie. I swear I've watched it a thousand times.
if you can dodge a ball you can dodge a wrench that part is still hilarious
Love this film, so many cool cameos. Another sports comedy I recommend is Balls of Fury. Another Vince Vaughn film I recommend is Swingers and the film is called Couples Retreat
Maggie Q and Thomas Lennon were awesome and Christopher Walken is brilliant in everything he does. Underrated movie for sure
@@Dr.Acula76 BoF is a decent Enter The Dragon parody.
@stsolomon618 Balls of Fury is great :) And Blades of Glory is pretty funny too.
@@crazyfvck Blades of Glory that film is hilarious
"Yoo Hoo" not "Yah" Hoo, just FYI, my dad used to work as a distributor a long time ago with them, we always had cases and cases of them in our garage as kids, loved the drink as a kid :p
Lowkey favorite part of this movie? The championship match referee. He sells it so hard, like dodgeball reffing really is his full-time job lol
As always, great reaction. You guys made me remember how much I like this movie ❤
first time i watched this it was high school in french class. the teacher was out sick and we didnt have a sub. this movie is just great movie.
Justin Long movies: "Accepted" and "Waiting...".
"Waiting..." also has Ryan Reynolds before he blew up.
The American Dodgeball Association ... of America
Loved watching this reaction, it makes the film feel new again. I'm also mega happy for the mention of 'Old School' and that it'll be a possibility to see a reaction here because Samantha hasn't seen it, it was once a must see film but once lots of other films like Anchorman, Dodgeball, Tropic Thunder etc came along it was overshadowed and not talked about as much.
I actually had a commentary team like Cotton & Pepper when I ran a wrestling company, I remember once, for reasons I don't recall, not being able to have them in venue doing live commentary so sent them the edited footage to record it at one of their homes later, I never heard it but my editor was so pissed when he got the audio back, he was like "Dude they were saying the most fucked up stuff, i think they were drunk too, I had to spend forever cutting about 70% of it out so the DVD is family friendly" haha, this film/reaction just brings that memory back. 😂
Gordon (Stephen Root) is also in the recently completed show Barry- highly recommended!
Stephen Root is such a chameleon.
"L for love" is still a running gag I use regulary. Its just hilarious
I think Couples Retreat that you mentioned is an incredibly underrated comedy, as is The Watch and The Internship
‘Bold strategy Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off.’
To get the full "Ben Stiller as an insane health nut guru" you have to watch the classic 90s kids movie Heavyweights! Ben stiller basically plays the same character running a fat camp for kids, and it's hilarious!
If u haven’t watched it u have to watch Starsky and hutch. It’s got Ben stiller, Vince vaughn & Owen Wilson. It’s highly underrated comedy and a great homage to the original show.
Fun fact: the actor who portrays Patches O’Houlahan in the dodgeball video is none other than Hank Azaria who is one of the main actors and provides many voices on The Simpsons.
If you can dodge a wrench , you can dodge a ball
This movie is so funny. You have to re-watch this again & really catch Jason Batemans lines.
You should catch *Stephen Root* in the sitcom *NewsRadio.* A completely different character than you've likely seen (yet still hilarious). 🤭
Hahaha yes. He was also the voice of Bill Dauterive on King of the Hill.
He's also in Barry, which recently ended on HBO.
You might like to try 'Zoolander' and 'The Night Shift', Ben Stiller comedies, and if you haven't seen them the 'Pitch Perfect' series are a similar vibe and pretty funny
The way this guy laughs is legitimate, and makes me laugh as well. New subscriber, here! 🤣
Dodgeball is so hilarious.
Every year ESPN actually turned one of its channel to yield OCHO in which they televise the dodgeball champions, and other obscure sports.
So the Cheerleading scene at the start…in the unrated version the girl looks back at Justin Long and says “I’m not wearing any panties” winks and clicks her tongue. Poor guy!!!!
Thanks for the video!!!!
Movie recommendations: "Grandma's Boy" and "Lucky Number Slevin"
Strongly seconded on both!
Milton wasn't alone. "Lumbergh" from Office Space was the announcer "Cotton"
One of the best modern comedies, period 🙃
I've seen this so many times, and just heard it's the "...Invitational Dodge Ball Open" -- huh?!
White Goodman is one of Ben Stiller's best characters.
"It's a bold strategy, Cotton, let's see if it pays off for them!"
That's probably the most meme'd line from this movie, I've seen it countless times on the Internet!
“He will not be able to see cotton” lol
i'm watching this for the fourth time now...this reaction never gets old!
I been repeating the greatest coaching line ever in a movie since the day it was released. “ if you can catch a wrench……
I forgot to mention the "can't you bend the rules just this one time" to the actor known for playing the ONE character who always breaks the rules (especially during the Kobayashi Maru) is perfect
Dodge, duck, dip, dive and.....dodge.
Awesome movie! I remember there was this movie about table tennis which is also funny.
@HSP193 Balls of Fury ;)
This movie still makes me laugh even after watching it more than 10 times. The only scene that didn't age well is the scene with Lance Armstrong who in the end won 0 tour de frances as they we're taking away because of him cheating.
He had cancer. The hormones they detected were not erformance enhancing.
@@fullmoonprepping4024 He literally copped to cheating by his own admission and you’re here defending a man who won’t even defend his own blatant wrongdoing. Reassess your opinions. ua-cam.com/video/wzvZNQKowMU/v-deo.html
@@fullmoonprepping4024 sure hormones to cure cancer
@@fullmoonprepping4024Sure bud.
See I think I makes it AMAZING seeing how utterly full of it Lance was back then, just utterly no shame whatsoever.
"That's a bold move, Cotton."
I have a movie recommendation for you to react to: In The Line of Fire (1993), a straight-up thriller of the highest order, featuring a great performance by the always charismatic Clint Eastwood!
John Malkovich is so good in that movie.
I concur.
on the DVD..everytime Ben Stiller snaps his fingers if you clicked on enter on the remote..it played an Easter egg
Such a funny damn movie! I still quote Gary Cole and Jason Bateman's lines at least once a month! Every time I see something on ESPN2 I think about this movie and ESPN8 the Ocho! 🤣😂
Stiller and Christine Taylor (Kate) are married in real life
TBR = The Blue Raisins? This is such a funny movie. You also saw Ben Stiller in Happy Gilmore. Love the video.
Stephen Root was also in No Country for Old Men as the corporate man who hires Carson Wells.
