Anyone else feel absolutely gutted seeing a John Candy freeze frame that fades to black? 😭
best part of this movie is the drilling the door scene. :D
RIP John Candy.
Every time. :(
John Hughes loved a freeze-frame on John Candy. The one at the end of Planes Trains & Automobiles is particularly poignant 😭
Yeah, me too. He was the victim of a Hollywood cursed screenplay. Look up the script called ATUK. Any actor who was supposed to play the lead died. Belushi Candy, Kinison, Farley, and Hartman
Only John Candy could make someone like Buck - who threatens (and kidnaps) teenagers, can't take care of a dog, and makes his living off of gambing - into a charming and loveable character. RIP
So true! Those were the times he was most endearing actually 😂

@@RhetoricalThrill Uncle Buck (1989) - Behind The Scenes Featurette

Candy wasn't the first choice for the role. Tom Cruise, Jack Nicholson and Danny Devito were considered. I can imagine Cruise in the role.
I always thought Uncle Buck was one of his best roles. It allowed his personally and charisma to shine through.
I read that his daughter says this was the most like him 😢
Buck melanoma gets me every time
😂
Moley Russell's wart
I STILL introduce myself as "Buck Melanoma... moley Russell's wart at random, inappropriate times.
I love the energy of that!
John Candy wasn’t the first choice to star. Danny DeVito was originally considered for the role of Uncle Buck. I'm so glad this role ended up going to John!
Absolute classic.
But can you imagine little Danny DeVito in the role? 🤣🤣🤣
Danny was usually better in more adult films, not kids films. John Candy fit this role better.
I love Devito, but it would have been very different with him, and I don’t think it would have been as good
I have also read that John Goodman was up for the role. I think that John Candy was the best choice,but I COULD see Goodman in the role and knocking it out of the park.
There was also Jack Nicholson and Tom Cruise as candidates.
John Candy was a Canadian, but in my heart he was one of the best Americans ever. That little girl was great in sleepless in Seattle. You're so great at calling out the right things. TY.
I’m glad to hear that! I was a little nervous about this one, but I can’t fake what I think, you know?
Sorry: he's all ours! (:
Bucks girlfriend played Maizys mom in a field of dreams 3 months prior to this!
"Do you think she hates me?"
"With a passion."
"Really? Do you think it's the hat?"
"No."
"No? A lot of people hate this hat. It angers a lot of people, just the sight of it. Ah, I'll tell you a story about that on the way to school."
Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Anna Chlumsky, Jean Louisa Kelly, and Gina Doctor.
Location Location Fact: Almost every set was built in a local high school gymnasium, including the two-story Russell house.
Good Frienemies Fact: Despite their characters not getting along for the majority of the film, off-camera Jean Louisa Kelly got along very well with John Candy and said she was honored to work with someone she considered a legend.
Culkin Candy Fact: This is the first of 3 movies Macaulay Culkin and John Candy would star in together. The others being Home Alone (1990) where they had no screen time together and Only The Lonely (1991) where Culkin only had a small cameo.
I definitely didn’t catch Anna Chlumsky
She's a kid here, so unfortunately she is easy to overlook.
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
I suspect that Tia had such a problem with Buck because her mother spoke badly about him in front of her for her entire life. Regardless of Tia's turnaround in the end, the mother was very snotty and snobbish throughout, an attitude clearly adopted by Tia. Thankfully, in the end, Tia has a truly loving ally in Buck, and she will hopefully mature in understanding and compassion for both herself and her parents, as I suspect that her parents won't change dramatically toward her when it's all said and done.
Yeah, I definitely didn’t like the mom either. I like to think she softened a little after seeing Tia’s turnaround, at least I hope she did 💜
John Candy at his best!
This has to be his best role ever, it's one movie I could watch over and over...seldom pass it up if I see it playing on cable.
I remember seeing John Hughes on, I think, the Charlie Rose show.
In the interview, he gave some of the back story with regards to the older daughter in this film.
Buck apparently used to visit them regularly when she was younger, like 5 or 6, and there was an event where he accidentally started part of their house on fire.
After that, his sister in-law vetoed any invites for him to come over.
So the older daughter did remember him, but was angry he stopped visiting those years ago.
This explains most of the animosity she has for him and why she acted like a world class capital C.
The scene with the assistant principal is the best, including the look on the kid's face who is sitting outside, waiting his turn and hearing Buck go off on her.
That explains so much! It plants the idea of her having abandonment issues and wouldn’t absolve her behavior but would certainly explain it.
And I loved that little boy just perking up and grinning when he hears Buck lay into that old hag 🥹
If I were to guess, the older daughter was probably a spoiled firstborn, that ended up being more ignored, when the much younger kids entered the story. She probably was close to her grandfather & probably resented never being able to see him again. (at least potentially) It's also likely that her parents were the type that made decisions on their own & took for granted that she'd just go along. That doesn't excuse here & she was very over the top, but those are possible things that one could infer, since we never got an explicit backstory for her. This is one of my favorite films & John Candy is one of my favorite actors. If you'd like to see more of him, obviously see the rest of his movies. You might also like checking out some episodes of SCTV. It's like a Canadian version of SNL. They often make fun of SNL on the show, as well. The back story of the show is that NBC rejected their ideas, so they started their own TV network. While we're on that topic, you might like Weird Al's UHF, which is a film that covers a similar idea. It's a hidden gem for sure.
Teenagers can change and grow up. I was an (jerk) to put it politely. Now I look back and can't believe how I was back then.
I think most people do, honestly. Hormones are no joke, and life in general is changing rapidly. But I think that’s part of the process.
You're a little harsh on Tia. A lot of kids are like this but it's on the parents. Maybe they're too caught on their lives to pay attention. Buck paid attention and it made a huge difference.
I do agree to a point. She clearly was crying out for attention, and her parents didn’t know how to properly respond to her behavior, so a lot falls on them. But there was a real vindictiveness in her that was very hard to sympathize with. Thanks for your thoughts! 😊
Some lesser known (at least by reactors) John Candy - Only The Lonely, Armed & Dangerous, Canadian Bacon
Only the Lonely I’ve seen but there’s a bunch of Candy movies I need to do
Tia is pretty awful (until the end of course) but I always felt that she learned a good chunk of that behavior from her mother (especially in the way she treats Buck). The mom isn't very pleasant either. And obviously they let her get away with a lot of her BS.
Anyway, this is my favorite John Candy movie and I love little Macaulay Culkin in it too. Hilarious and wholesome
Someone just went and gave her oldest a hug. Try The Great Outdoors and Summer Rental. 2 very little acknowledged John Candy films.
Both are on my list! 😊
"I'll remember it always'.
That line had me.
John Candy was honest to God the most precious man. Such a sweetheart. Gone, but certainly not forgotten.
I can’t believe he’s been gone so long sometimes, even now 💔
@@RhetoricalThrill One thousand percent, agreed. It's surreal.
Seeing parts of this movie always gets a good laugh out of me, but your reactions totally had me in stitches! 🤣 It looks like you select some lesser known gems not often found on other reaction channels; checking these out should be a fun time. Subscribed! ✌
I’m glad to have you! I feel like I’ve seen a lot of the more popular movies that people do so yes, I end up doing some different movies which I love 😊
I distinctly remember having 5 of your last 6 uploads on VHS at my cabin.
Love that! I remember my own stack of VHS tapes 💜
the man who wrote John Candy's biography said I have done a lot of celebrity biographies but with John Candy he explained what you see really is what he is
My first time watching you and I've already subscribed. You're an amazing person with amazing character and you have a lot of emotional intelligence.
Thank you so much! I hope I can keep entertaining you 😊
Just found Your Channel , thank You for the Entertainment , love Yor Movie Choices and Energy and it helps me forgetting Stress for a little Time , Merry Xmas and Happy New Year in advanvce from Germany
Thank you for watching! I'm glad I can entertain you 😊 And Merry Christmas to you also!
I was scrolling along and saw, and then watched your video. Laughed a lot and loved how you reacted to what you were watching. I'm getting ready to subscribe and go watch your reaction to Sweet Home Alabama.
Thanks so much! I hope you find more to enjoy 💜
I love this flick. Another good John Hughes movie (well he wrote it) that’s along the same vibe of this is Dutch.
I’ve been wanting to do Dutch for a long time, it’s a favorite of my dad’s, but it hasn’t been available to stream or rent, sadly.
@@RhetoricalThrill I found it, it’s streaming on HBO Max if ya got that. It would make a good vid for thanksgiving since it’s a thanksgiving flick.
I have not seen this in ages. Seeing your reaction to it is amazing. This is a great movie. I miss John Candy so much. I miss John Hughes too!
Both gone too soon. I’m glad we have their movies to enjoy but it does add a layer of sadness.
Watching lots of people watch this, honestly I get her. She's a teenage woman going through puberty (Which, now that I've talked about it with SOs, I understand the hell of it way more than I did when younger and watching this movie) who probably had a small group of friends she really trusted and could talk to, forced to leave that group of friends at a time when it was near impossible to keep in touch with friends who loved a long way away, who has to help raise her siblings somewhat, and now she's being looked after by some rando who, statistically, is one of the most likely people to sexually assault her (Though obviously us watchers know Buck never would). She pushes it a bit TOO far a few times even with all of that, but still I kind of understand how she's acting.
Also, the "having life made" thing, you don't realize that as a kid. My family was 1 step away from rich. I had a massive backyard, a house with a basement the size of a large apartment, grandparents who would get me anything, an allowance of 40$ a week, a bathtub big enough for 3 people, two driveways and a garage, 3 vehicles, 2 christmases because my grandparents raised me, with one of them being a GIANT whole family christmas, almost zero chores, almost no need to do homework during grade and middle school because things came so easy to me I got hundreds on every test, and all the comic books I could ever read because my grandpa collected them. Bullying still made me think my life was hell, and from what I understand now, girls' bullying is worse.
@@Necrobadger I was bullied by boys myself, but I totally get what you’re saying. I think that’s part of growing up, gaining that kind of perspective. I also had to move schools twice so I get the feelings. But that attitude of hers is just hard to take.
The high school they used in this film was an abandoned High School. They also used the high school in the movies Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, The Breakfast Club and they used the school gymnasium for filming the Home Alone home because the house was small to film in locations. The neighbors house at the end of Home Alone neighbors house was a set in the pool too so they did the water scene in the pool. I used to live 45 minutes for those locations in Illinois. My favorite John Candy film is Trains, Planes and Automobiles. Also Cool Runnings is another good John Candy film. For Home Alone John Candy did his role for free.
I just saw Planes Trains and Automobiles last year and it was amazing! I grew up with Home Alone and Cool Runnings, and Ferris was a favorite when I found it in my teens 😊
@@RhetoricalThrill oh that’s cool you seen those films. In Planes Trains and Automobiles where they run the car into the motel is still there to this day. It’s located in Gurnee Illinois where I grew up and the bull head in front of the motel still there lol I lived 10 minutes from that motel
My wife and I haven't seen every john candy movie but we've seen this and it's really good
John Candy was great at elevating characters in movies to always be likable. Lots of fun in his movies.
He was extremely likable, he had some real flaws but was good hearted, loved him
The teenage daughter makes me extremely happy that my ex wife and I couldn't had children. I am glad you watched this one.
🤣
well you dodged a bullet.
HAHAHAHAHAHAAA!!! Great reaction video! Loads of fun!
💜💜💜
She disliked him, because of her mother and she was acting out because they moved.
80s PG, man. It was amazing. Now CGI cartoons made for toddlers are PG. You could get away with actual storytelling identifiable situations in movies without having it be an adult movie. Some of the most immature movies now are rated PG-13 or R. It's not like these kids aren't experiencing these things growing up anyway. You're not hiding them from anything. Hollywood is just making excuses for making bad movies for kids.
AGREED
Tia is Sylvia Plath meets Annie Hall.
Love your reactions
Thank you! 😊
Got to love John Candy my favorite movies with him or The Great outdoors Brewster's millions splash,, I mean there's just so many movies
From how it sounded, Tia had a pretty good life where they used to live, then her parents forced her to move and she lost all her friends and had a hard time starting over here. Combine that with a snooty mother who looks down on Buck and there you go.
She had the turn around because she thought she had it all figured out, and Buck showed her she really didn't, and it made her realize she knew precisely Jack and shit. And through everything she did, Buck never abandoned her. That will go a long way in changing someone's outlook.
Toe rag!!! I’m dying!😂
This is my favorite John Candy movie. The scene where he tells the woman with mole off is my favorite scene. Amy Madigan plays his love interest. She is great in Field of Dreams. She is also in the Stephen King movie The Dark Half.
I think Planes, Trains, and Automobiles is my favorite so far but I have a few left to do still!
9:06 No Wonder Macaulay Culkin Got In Home Alone A Year Later.
11:45 Exactly! 💯
Who Names Their Kid Bug?! Entomologists?
Bravo Tia, For Causing Drama! 😠
Your fired up commentary was thoroughly entertaining, thank you!
I would like to recommend “One Crazy Summer” (1986)
I’ve not heard of it, I’ll check it out!
That was delightful, thank you...
I’m happy you enjoyed it!
This 65 year young Aussie has Uncle Buck on DVD, and I can highly recommended another John Candy movie 'The Great Outdoors " if you haven't seen it, you won't regret it 😊
It’s on my list! Definitely will get to that one also 😊
19:42 Marcy, Keep Your Dirty Pillows Out Of His Laundry Basket! 😨😰
All she needed was someone to take the time to not just take care of her. But to care. The parents seemed great, but preoccupied..... She needed a little discipline.... but with a genuine sense of someone going out of their way to set her right. With her best interests in mind. Teens sometime get that from someone a little farther out of their inner circle than their parents. Also she had a huge chip on her shoulder for them moving.... Teens have the hardest time with that. Having to start from scratch with relationships. Of course all of this was exaggerated because it was a movie..... But that is where the tensions and the comedy came from.
Yeah, I had to move in 8th and 10th grade myself. I think it’s something we all have to learn, how to deal with our pain without hurting other people.
9:22 Now Who Doesn't Want A Car That Literally Backfires?! 🚗💥😂
24:14 😂 The Drill! Yess! 👏😆
Spoiler Alert 🚨 I absolutely LOVE that John Candy and Macaulay are reunited in Home Alone after this. Although they don't share a scene, it's heartwarming for some reason. 🤷🏼♂
It’s just the John Hughes feels 💜
II don't know if you have watched John Candy's late night TV show SCTV. It was a sketch comedy show starring Candy, Catherine O'Hara, Eugene Levy, Martin Short, Rick Moranis, Dave Thomas, and Joe Flaherty. They parodied soap operas, TV commercials, fitness shows, and everything else. The show setting is a local TV station. I bought the DVD box set, and it's still funny.
15:51 Now That Is Entertaining! 😂
26:24 You Know What Hurts More Than A Golf Ball? Being Cheated On! 😆
Sheldon's mother be breaking into people's houses
Not very Christian at all 😆
RIP to the great John Candy. From second city tv, to blue's brothers, Splash, and every movie since, nothing but great. Planes trains and automobiles, is a must. And of course, both John Hughes movies, which ALL must be watched!
I don’t love every movie he’s in, but I love him every time
One of my fave John Candy movies is one with Ally Sheedy, "Only the Lonely," with the lovely Maureen O'Hara as John's overbearing Irish Catholic mother. If you've never seen it, I highly recommend it. ❤
I’ve seen it, but a long time ago 💜
Brilliant movie. Love how Buck has a second go at the plate on the mantle when it doesn't break first time round. Also, the grown up version of the older daughter was Iceman's wife in Top gun: maverick, I think.
Oh nice! I haven’t seen Maverick yet, I’m sure I’ll like her more 😂
I know this and Planes and Trains hit the feels... But Candy in Only the Lonely as the happless romantic alongside the iconic Maureen O'Hara... And the just flat out fun of Armed and Dangerous are my go to's... Also him with Richard Pryor as the ever faithful ride or die friend in Brewster's Millions..
i instantly wondered how you would react to the eldest daughter.... 2 min in... "That little bitch would be getting a backhand". I was not disappointed! 😂
🤣 you know me too well
You're graduated to The Great Outdoors also John Candy, add Dan Aykroyd
Ohh it’s happening!
15:27 Now Who Doesn't Want Giant Pancakes For Their Birthdays? 🥞🤤😋😆
It always gives me a warm feeling watching John Candy he's sweet no pun intended I'm British forgive me. But you gave a brilliant and incisive reaction to a top movie. Would you give me your opinion on a film called " In the heat of the night".It's one of my favourites. TAKE CARE.
You might be interested in his final movie Wagons East
I’ve never seen it because it was his last and I feel like it would be painful, but I won’t count it out!
16:53 I Want A Hatchet! 😂
28:14 😢 The Iconic Scene.
😭
Love love john candy in the film cool runnings.
That one is so good!
My 2nd fav John Candy movie ever. My top fav is Planes trains and automobiles
I saw that one last year for the first time, and I think it's my favorite too
The grudge against her parents was they moved her from her whole social life and school to Chicago. She duplicated The Grudge her mom had on Uncle Buck
Yeah, understandable to a point. I had to move twice in my teens, a new school in 8th and in 10th. It sucked, but that level of bitchery is way out of pocket 😂
1. Many say Planes Trains and Automobiles but I say this was his best.
2. Of course it's Chicago. This is a John Hughes film.
3. Macaulay Culkin got the "Home Alone" gig because Landis loved him in this.
4. That's the same High School used by Hughes for "The Breakfast Club" and "Ferris Beuller's Day Off".
5. Making a stack of pancakes that big would take A LOT of work. 🙄(and money)
6. Tell me you didn't enjoy this. I dare you 😁
PS: For a child hitting the "B" word out of the park you need to review, "Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory", with Gene Wilder.
😂 you’re so right! I’ve seen Willy Wonka many times, I’m sure I’d have some choice words for those brats if I were seeing it for the first time!
11:08 😢 That's Sad. 😢
Don't get this the wrong way but your anger was very entertaining 😅. I even learned a new expression.
🤣
Wow never seen a reaction like this 😶
😂
Within a scant two years, John Hughes went from empathizing with teens, to suddenly making them the nuisance.
Whoa, I didn’t notice but you’re right, that’s interesting!
3:54 Hey! At Least Shanice Isn't Doing Drugs! And Those Who Own Cars Need Tires! 😠
15:07 You're One To Talk, Tia! 😠
21:53 Yes They Do.
Ok so now that you have seen Uncle Buck, do reactions for Summer Rental and The Great Outdoors (if you haven't seen them). Both star John Candy.
Both are in the plans! 😊
25:36 😂 👏😆
Girl, i love you. Uou do one movie a week. Please get around to "Patton". The opening scene won an Oscar.
Lol, sorry about the "You" spelling. I didn't have my glasses on aaannnddd may be 3 or 4 vodka tonics in......
Yep, “PATTON” was a great movie! The museum is still at FT Knox and is worth a visit. Cheers
I was the oldest and all I wanted was for my little brother (by 5 years) to leave me alone and to stop trying to provoke me into a reaction which would cause me to get into trouble.
That happens here too, actually. I think they have all the sibling dynamics going on 😅
What does "see you next Tuesday" mean? Never heard that one.
It’s a euphemism for the C word, UA-cam didn’t like it 🤣
Fun movie, meaningful ending. ❤
1:49 Ouch! 😐
3:08 Same With Me.
4:14 TIA! That's Mean And Harsh! A Low Blow Even For You! 😩
If you want a character you can REALLY hate, check out 'The Green Mile.' It's definitely not a comedy, but it is considered to be one of the best American movies ever made. I guarantee you will hate Percy Wetmore with a white-hot fury; he makes Tia's shenanigans look like pouting fits.
It’s one I’ve been meaning to do! 😊
14:41 My Thoughts Exactly! WTF?! 💯😠
I’d be thrilled if my mom brought home chinese food 💯♥️
RIGHT?
When John Candy waves goodbye at the end, it hurts. It's so easy to quickly judge and focus on Tia and not catch the subtle facts that she was raising the kids and the folks were just existing. She was defensive because she had to be, due to having no one to be there for her and her siblings, until Buck did what no one has ever done for her.
I appreciate you sharing your thoughts on it. I think for me, I didn't see enough to make me see the dynamic of the family that way. They were clearly out of balance as far as work/family life, but I didn't get the impression she was raising the kids or they were being neglected. And she didn't save her vitriol for her parents, but took it out on everyone around her. Part of growing up is learning how to handle your feelings in ways that don't hurt other people or yourself. And I think we can all agree that she was lucky to have Buck to help her with that 💜
@@RhetoricalThrill I have to admit that, as a writer, I have a tendency to fill in between the lines :) I very well could of wrote my own backstory.
9:17 I Know I Do! 😆🚗💥
I feel like the film’s intention of portrayal was that Tia caught Bug cheating with the other girl and left the party in tears.
She was vulnerable and upset, but also humbled. At this point I think she realized that not only was Buck right about everything, she now sees that everything he did was done out of love and to protect her. So maybe her 180 was not all that unbelievable. After all that, how could you not throw some respect his way ? Not to mention, they had the bonding experience of getting to terrorize Bug together. 😉
Hopefully you’re right, and it’s not the other possibility 😞 After the second watch, it makes a bit more sense. She’d gone for so long with no one pushing back on her that she didn’t recognize Buck wasn’t trying to control her but protect her.
I always thought Bug tried to have sex with her and she didn’t want to. He got pushy and she stormed out. Then, Bug decided to hook up at someone else at the party.
@@RhetoricalThrill
There’s a few things that could have happened.
But as far as sex goes, I don’t think Tia was dumb enough, nor ready to have sex.
It’s likely he made advances and she pushed him off after not listening to the word “no” enough times. He would then consider her useless and dump her, hence her leaving the party distraught.
It seems if he had used her as a sex object, both Tia and Buck might have had a much stronger retaliation.
But the truth is, it’s likely that only John Hughes knows the truth about what really happened.
tia was great and still hard at work
13:42 Marcy Needs Professional Help.
Funny you mentioned you hated lots of characters in the movie so far(18:41-18:43)...Yep, first the Queen, Tia, then the nasty guy at the bowling alley. The drunk clown, and the mean principal.
Don’t forget Bug 🤢
@@RhetoricalThrill yes.
17:13 This Is Why I'm Glad To Be A Girl.

Wonderful reaction. 14:24-14:40... now if she had said something nasty to that guy, I would root for her. But she should have been nice to that next dude, that sat down to talk to Buck.
It’s an act, like her mother says. She wouldn’t mouth off to just anyone, only people she’s confident won’t push back.
