I was in the Army in the 90's. I knew guys who were at Ft. Sill when they filmed the basic training scenes. One guy. First morning he didn't know. Then Pauly Shore sits down across from him at breakfast and he thought "WTF??"
P.S. Men of Honor was with Cuba Gooding Jr where he was a Navy diver. You're thinking of A Few Good Men @6:30
Men of honor is still an incredible movie.
@@bcrider3018 It is... but it isn't the movie they were talking about.
@@bomorris5050 Aware. Your initial comment was accurate. I was making a different statement about the movie they mentioned being great.
They're always thinking of a few good men. #Gay #Joke
I also did my research before enlisting and my recruiter hated me! LMAO. I told him I'm not enlisting unless it's a specific aviation job i wanted. I ended waiting for almost 2 weeks and constant calls from recruiter trying to get me to go to another MOS, but in the end i stood firm and was happy with my enlistment.
i was easy lol i told my recruiter i just wanted to leave as soon as possible wanted infantry and nothing else i regret it but i was young and didnt think bout my future i wouldnt be law enforcement i ended up working construction but if i could go back i would chose an Mos that transfered over to civilian job
@@erickiyoshiphillips2323 What would you have chosen instead? Hypothetically speaking.
As a 12-month conscript in Sweden, I ended up in the infantry. I was pretty p-ed off when I later learned that a few conscripts became helicopter mechanics and got to learn to fly the chopper.
@@yt45204 Haha thats how it goes in Scandinavia,you do 1-2 years as a conscript,then you volunteer:p If all your looking for is a cushy conscript period then you dont push for the infantry haha.
Did you get on someones bad side?
@@Ulyssestnt No, I'm a computer nerd who likes nature, so I welcomed going into the infantry as a change from just sitting behind a computer most of my spare time. We sure got our share of involuntary armed boy scout activities :)
I refused to do the morse code test during the selection phase. I didn't want to get stuck with a radio in a bunker somewhere.
But learning to fly a chopper would have been really cool.
When Adam Sandler "reinvent" himself to more serious roles, some of us would immediately think of Tom Hanks. Tom Hanks up until the late 80's was known for comedy before shifting to more serious roles in the 90's like Philadelphia and Saving Private Ryan.
He started on a sitcom bosom buddies where he spent half the time in drag. He did guest shots on Happy Days and family ties. His first movies were also comedies Bachelor Party and Splash
His Family Ties character was a raging alcoholic iirc
one that I immediately thought of was Jim Carrey
@@andyhsong Keanu Reeves
Robin Williams did the same. It was pretty common for comedic actors from the '80s and early '90s to switch to movies then after a while they'd switch from comedies to more dramatic roles. I think that the reason for this was, at the time, being a movie actor was where the money and prestige was and comedic actors weren't perceived as being serious actors, unlike dramatic actors. Plus, there was almost no way that you're getting a Best Actor/Actress Oscar as anything but an actor in a dramatic role.
Reportedly they told Pauly Shore they weren't going to shave his head, just trim it. When he was shown what they did that was his real reaction in the movie when it happened.
He’s not sad. He runs and owns the biggest comedy club in the US. The comedy store his mom owned it he took it over when she passed
He doesn’t own, nor run it. His mother Mitze owned it and after her death her eldest son Peter is in control of the club.
He actually does an interview blasting a lot of Hollywood and gets drunk and starts acting weird.. it was sad
@@ehwren that’s unfortunate. I just think saying someone is sad for no longer doing what they used to is fucked up. That’s like saying damn you’re not in regiment any more you’re sad. Damn not in the NAVY (in my case ) you’re sad. No if he’s on a downward spiral and an alcoholic self harm then that’s a sad moment. The way I heard it that day was like damn not acting anymore he’s sad. And I could have been just having a moment myself so it’s whatever. I’m still gonna watch beers and break down
Favorite Paulie Shore line - "INNNNBREEEEDERRRS" from Son in Law..
I have a story related to In The Army Now. One of the Drill Sergeants, when Bones and Jack arrive at Fort Sill for Basic, Drill SGT Humphreys, was later a 1SG then promoted to Battalion SGM at my battalion at Fort Riley, KS in the early 2000s. I was a field artillery lieutenant and the LTs' office was near his SGM office. In that office he had a framed movie poster of In The Army Now with Pauly Shore along with his awards and accolades along the wall. I remember every morning I walked into the Battalion HQ building, I would hear him in his office down the hall chewing out some EM, while 3 other soldiers were sitting outside his office. NCOs will say that after he had back surgery and on medical leave, he would still be out in front of his home doing yard work.
When they cut Pauly Shore's hair he ask them not to "really" cut it, so they lied to him and when they turn him around and he screams... That is REALLY him screaming for real :) lol All the hits in the fight training was real too.
Ahh... you skipped the funniest part where they paint the laser on the target, take incoming fire, and then Pauly sees the laser pointing at his forehead and starts panicking. Pure comedy gold!
Lynn Whitfield Starred in a Thin Line Between Love & Hate with Martin Lawrence
Afterwards😂
15:00 I went to an anger management class when I was in and there was a Gunnery Sergeant drill instructor who was fed up with his recruits, it cracked me up.
Boot camp barber: if you have any moles on your head, put your finger on them or they’re coming off.
10 seconds later my head was shaved lmao
OEF vet. 11-12 RC South. Funniest part in this movie for me was when Bones does push-ups until TOP says he’ll never do a single pushup again, only for him to count out how times he’ll peel a potato. Idk why but that shit cracked me up.
Watched this 30yrs ago and did basic at Sill after 9/11, never realized it was filmed there. Time to rewatch, good times!
The Weasel! I love how Pauly played everything he wasn't. Just like Son in Law he was a worse farmer than a soldier.
He went to Ft Sill for filming. When I graduated boot, they made us go above and beyond to prep our barracks. Months later, when we finally got it in Germany, I lost it when I watched them walk through the arch at the reception battalion, but that paled to when they used my bay in the C battery 1/31 literally two bunks from mine. Greatest memory from any movie period.
What's great about this movie is how absurdly real to life it is (and only those of use who've been in will agree to that). Folks who never served think it's a comedic exaggeration. Us vets are like, "nope, it's exactly like that"...... 🤣🤣
This movie is one of the most realistic depicitions of the fuckery you saw in basic, and the fuckery you see as a pog just wanting to sham the hell out. Fantastic film. I tell pll to watch this if they want to know what the army was like
When I was going through receiving at Parris Island, (2019) I was in line to get my haircut. All the sudden. This kid behind me pipes up and says "uhm, Sir, I don't wanna be here anymore..." 3 drill instructors dragged him outside and were like "What the fuck do you mean you don't wanna be here. You just got here!?" He got put in my platoon, but he made it about halfway through 1st phase.
I love this movie! “ I wish you were my 1st Sgt but I already had a few”😂😂
In my head EVERY time I addressed First Sergeants, EVERY FREAKING TIME 🤣
@@curtbalch2321 bro as I’m Navy everytime I’m at a joint command I say it in that tone. “Hello 1st Sgt”. 😂😂😂😂
forgot they filmed at Fort Sill, I did medic at OST at fort Sill for 6 most. We got them at 0430 in AM, they had their jeans and a brown T-shirt , still has their hair It was a power trip for an E-4, we drew blood, used the air guns to give shots, good times.
Holy shit, we yelled "suck on this one time" constantly at the range back then. Movies were our memes
Every teacher has had at least one student like that.
"MOOOVE!"
(BOOM)
Desert Patrol Vehicles are what you're thinking of I believe. Basically dune buggies that were little more than an engine, axles, 3 seats. Two machine guns and a Mk19.
Pauly was that dude in the early 90's with back 2 ack comedy flicks 😂 this Encino Man and Jury Duty was my classic
DUDE encino man is one I totally blanked on! 🤣 had Brendan Fraser too! back when he was a hit! The mummy slaps!
@@Texasplit Hell yea I still say he should of been in that latest Munmy movie instead of Tom Cruise lol One of them situations where an actor should of pass on the role or should of took the role 😁
@@hbk-hotboy713 not sure if I saw that one 🤔
I loved in the mummy when the Americans show up with all kinds of guns, and the main characters are like “Americans” 🙄
It was supposed to be a dis… but I was proud of it 🤣
@@hbk-hotboy713should of pass or should of took? No shit Sherlock.
You got a breakdown stripes with Bill Murray. It was filmed on Fort Knox. That’s where I went to basic. Also you guys should break down starship troopers with Johnny Rico.
Lynn Whitfield was great as the Drill Sergeant. She reminded me of my female drill at Fort Jackson.
When I lived in San Antonio, I would see Air Force Trainees every weekend down on the Riverwalk. They would be dressed just like the 2 guys in the first clip playing putt-putt. During my day, there were 4 or 5 Air Force bases, Ft Sam Army Post, and a Marine/Navy Reserve center. So seeing people in Class Bs was very common.
"you can't handle the truth" is actually from the movie A Few Good Men, great movie you guys should review it
When I was stationed at Ft. Story, the water dog detatchment was right across from our arms room. 😂
It’s painful how accurate this film portrays basic and some of the individuals I ran into over my 21 year career.
My first month as a 1SG I suddenly understood why Yoda just straight up dies in Return of the Jedi when Luke is asking dumb questions.
Only us vets know how absurdly accurate this movie actually is.
Just got out of basic a week ago, yes they still do pugil sticks
Good tip on the precut hair. I went to Benning in late June; at least 80% of us had sunburned scalps in the first week.
Man always loved this movie. I remember watching this in 98 shortly after I got to Korea. That's when I realized Ft. Sill, yep I was there for basic (1-31 ADA Battalion).
Also guys it was A Few Good Men that the Nicholson impression comes from.
Side note the scene in the mess tent you see Brendon Frasier pop in for just a moment, look at his name tape and it says Link, that was Brendon Fraisers characters name in another Pauly Shore movie from that era, Encino Man.
I was on the Marine Corps, but went to Ft. Sill for artillery MOS school, and the cattle cars bring back some memories!😂
This movie is great and surprisingly accurate to how things could be sometimes. We got to watch in our last week of basic after it recently released. and we were in stitches.
Now I'm gonna be watching the next few reactions to see Pauly Shore come on with you guys so he can weez a little ju-uuuice 🤣
Small note: christine lori petty was TANK girl.
We hired Shore to be our Grand Marshall in the Garden Grove Strawberry Festival Parade.
Thank u Sir and Sir and everyone that's serve our country
17:00 Your story reminds me of the story Bob Ross told about why he left the military. He was a training sergeant for the Air Force, iirc. His story goes that one day he looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't stand it any more. His entire job was to "break brave young men down so they could be built back up" and it made his life angry all the time. That day he decided he couldn't do it any more. It just made me think about what he said when you talked about your DS being angry. That kind of perpetual anger eating away at someone until it ruins them as well.
Taps: George C. Scott, Tom Cruise, Sean Penn
I saw this movie a few months before I went to basic in Ft Sill. It always brings back memories. I also just walked into the recruiting office not knowing anything. But it was the mid 90’s. There was no Google, no UA-cam. Information was very limited. I didn’t know what MOS to pick. Some NCO opened a page in a book that said 13F, and I was like…okay, sure.
I joined late 03. Never watched any Army/military movies growing up either. The day before I left for basic I watched this movie not knowing anything about it (or the Army) and had a hell of a surprise recognizing the buildings at reception a day later.
I was in basic at Ft. Sill in 1994 doing KP and in walked pauly shore.
Most accurate, best acting and magic plot :)
The grenade range is probably the calmest the DS are during all of training.
nah lol. one of them pretended to drop a green painted dummy in the middle of all of us sitting around the demo pit and the smoked tf out of us because nobody jumped on it.
When I went into the NAVY. I had my job in writing on the contract and also advancement to E3 on completion of my A school (job). If you don't ask the questions, the recruiter doesn't always have to tell you everything
Why haven't you guys reacted to the greatest all-time Special Forces movie, The Green Berets with John Wayne? It's a classic.
We had a few that tried the shaved head idea before indoc, they still put them through the process. And a couple may or may not have still had eyebrows afterwards.
I've listened to a couple of podcasts talk to Paulie over the past year or so. He's doing fine. His mom owns one of the most important comedy clubs in the business
For the next movies: Soldier , The Ten Commandments, Dances with Wolves (directors cut), The Last Samurai, Mamma Mia , Sense and Sensibility , Marathon Man , Schindlers List , Gandhi , Glory , Sound of Music , Universal Soldier
My 11th grade teacher showed us this movie on a half day when I was in high school. I remember it specifically because he also thought us if I remember right the geen breat song or Mato. I've always it was so cool that Mato
Everyone that did my Crazy Monkey technique, successfully completed the clinch drill. Everyone who ignored my advice, got pieced up. I got to put on the gloves after I passed & made those poor souls pay dearly. Crazy Monkey came from an MMA Gym called Straight Blast Gym in Portland, OR. Randy Couture & Dan Henderson came from there. Amongst others. It works great for getting inside while sustaining minimal damage.
I messed up this same way!! I went to enlist for Intel and they talked me into enlist for transportation and in a year just ask to reclass....14 years later still trying to get reclassed as a e6 😡
Biodome, son in law, in the army now, if you haven’t seen those three… you haven’t lived.
Good lighthearted silliness, something you can watch with the kids/nieces and nephews.
Biodome has a scene that will make you roflmao the first time you see it
When they shaved my head, felt like scalp coming off.
I'd also add Encino Man and Jury Duty to that list.
I went to Ft. Sill and had no idea this was filmed there, it’s weird seeing the same places i stood in a movie
watching him stop himself from calling it willy pete in the explanation of a lum round made me laugh.
LOL. I have to finally see this movie. The General was literally my Commander in the 82d Airborne, Colonel Von Kaenel.
You’ve never seen it?? Asap man
Quick story about the haircut. My buddy was thinking about joining NG after I graduated basic. His recruiter tried to tell him he wouldn't have to shave his head lmao thankfully he didn't join. He's doing great now anyway
1st things 1st thank you for your service gentlemen! good work always like to here from actual people who do the jobs in movies opinions on them !
God, I watched this movie so many times when I was little.
The movie they were referencing is A Few Good Men.
Glad to see you had more clips this time . good show.
I never saw this, but I absolutely LOVED Biodome, Encino Man, and A Goofy Movie back in the day. Absolute gems, and they wouldn't have been without Shore.
Leaning tower of CHEESE-aaaahhh!
I was the idiot that just walked in. I did get a $1000 sign up bonus. I got it a week after I left service...
i preemptively shaved my head, but only because i had a Mohawk and the old sfc at meps told me not to show up at 30th like that unless i wanted all the smoke.
You guys absolutely ROCK… always a pleasure to watch you wind off, and have fun
i had a similar experience as Sean with one of my DSs. i was E-1 Private when i went to basic, one of my DSs got promoted to SFC (E-7) during the cycle. after basic went to 1st duty station after a couple years deployed Bosnia, got promoted to SGT (E-5), came PCSed to Germany, 9/11 happened, was supposed to go to Kosovo but my overseas extension got denied, so had to come back stateside and was sent to Fort Benning. got assigned to this committee that tested new optics, LASERs, weapon mounts, etc and then created training materials for those items and went TDY to teach units how to use them. so, 3 of us from the committee had to go to NTC to do a week of training for the O/Cs so they would have a basic understanding of the gear the rotational units would be using. during one of my blocks of instruction i was looking in the audience and i was like "holy shit, that's one of my DSs". during a break i went up to him and was like "hey SFC Mackenzie, were you a DS at D 1-50 Infantry in 97?" he was, but all his buddies clowned him like "OHHH SHIT, one of your basic trainees has almost caught up to you in rank" (i was promoted to SSG (E-6) shortly afterwards too).
bonus story from this, we got a free day in Vegas on the Army's money from that trip cause turns out the friday was a training holiday, so we only had to do 4 days of instruction instead of 5 and our flights were not until saturday...so, we decided we could save the army some money by staying on-post at Nellis AFB instead of the hotel in Barstow. and the fact that it was 10 minutes from the Vegas strip...well, that was just a happy coincidence.
I watched it when it first came out (carbon dating myself), but I still to this day while playing video games and I shoot anything close to an AT launcher I'm saying "SUCK ON THIS A ONE TIME!!!" 🤣
"You can't handle the truth!"
-A Few Good Men
Pauli had his momma, Mitzi Shore... Thats the reason he was ever in movies...
You can now wrap your can with heat shield wrap for performance exhausts ,now they make them in tan, green and black,it works
I was falling asleep standing up hold my first grenade.. I can imagine that happening for sure
lol this was a nice change of pace guys. good stuff. Pauly and Weird Al, two national treasures.
I am sooo glad you reviewed this movie...I always loved it!! It's hilarious!!
This movie was my whole basic and was filmed two months after I went to basic, my senior drill was in the movie the black drill during hair cut
Regarding the grenades I think people don't understand that there's a pop that starts the fuse scares people and they drop the grenade.
Ya dont sign unless it exactly what u want. I joined the navy and knew the only job i wanted was corpsman/ medic. One i had went to medical assistant program prior. Wish i was able to get E5 but i wasnt able to get over that hump with the advancment tests for your rate. Thats the one thing i didnt know about, but all other ppl in my family were navy
7:26 - Buck: “Dude! I was THAT idiot!!”
😂 Y’all crack me up guys
Greetings from Indianapolis
This is the most real video you guys have made. Create a shirt of something out of the signing up part. I've never been in the military but love youre work.
What's funny is I went to reception and basic at the exact same locations this movie did. That water tower? Was right outside my battery.
PS - Men of Honour is a great movie, especially since I did dive medicine for my last regular posting.
Bro i shaved my head right before bootcamp, no one told me that they’ll STILL “cut” your hair anyway……..regardless of having the worst razor burn Ive ever felt in my life, they still ran those clippers.
The drill sergeant experiences were fkn wild.
Good video
The suppressor cover you described for the K9 guy is probably the Manta Defense cover
crazy how much Andy has gotten arrested over. been awhile since i have watched any of Paulys movies but always enjoyed them.
I did OSUT at Ft. Sill. I was 35 when I went… best time of my life. If the Army would take a 54 year old back, I’d go in a heartbeat. HOOAH!!
I mean, they kinda are. Contact your local recruiter and I’m sure they can issue a cane with your gear. 😂 seriously they’re calling back retirees right now.
@@gregkrueger331 Well, I don’t need a cane, just keep it simple; boots and a rifle and I can walk into combat. Hahaha!
Yes! If there’s something you want in your contract, stick to your guns and wait!
In an unrelated story, at MEPS, I saw a tshirt with a parachute on it and thought it was cool. I asked how to get one. The MEPS NCO said he can add something to my contract and I can get one after AIT. I said sure. I still got the MOS I wanted but he added Airborne school to the contract. I had never been on an airplane until I got to Ft Benning.
Loved this movie
9:40 I enlisted in the US Army with a bachelors degree. The recruits told me I could go to OCS and become an officer. The recruiter told me all I had to do is talk to my drill sergeant on the first day of basic training, and I would be immediately put in the next OCS class. I did that and my drill sergeant laughed, It doesn't work that way. Don't believe the recruiters. Get it in writing.
6:20 A Few Good Men
Hey guys love all the content and how positive you motivate everyone.
Pauly Shore's mom Mitsy started The Comedy Store in LA and is huge for starting the comedy scene..... Check out who used to babysit him
That damn Flash light is iconic 😂 Every soldier/marine had one hanging on their chest
Gosh damn. I had forgotten all about this movie. Just made my day.
I double checked. It’s from A Few Good Men. Men of Honor is the navy diver movie.
the clinch drill!! haha yes i remember i got hit in the face and u sat their all day fort benning 2011 they didnt do puggle training or however u say it
being said, yall bring up a good point about your first contract. I wanted option40 coming in and couldnt get it, so I went 11B base off the bat. I picked up ranger in basic training, went to airborne and then RASP. Unlike a lot of guys I went with, I didn't get screwed over when I got hurt and dropped because I didnt have the bonus or extra year that came with the option 40.
Paulie shore is like comedy royalty. His mom ran the comedy store.(comedy club in LA) that started alot of big name comics. When his mom mizty died, he took over.
My recruiter was a so very good, he not only recruited me, he recruited my roommate. He came by our apartment and I swear his super activated, two weeks later he was heading to boot camp.
