No, Ty Webb did not drug the Perrier bottle. He had a bunch of opened bottles around the half eaten pizza and poured one into the other to make it appear full and stuck a cap on it. When he "opened" it in front of Lacey Underall, he blew on it to pretend it was still fizzy instead of flat.

Rodney is always like that, but in this he really pushed it in a few places. He would start doing his routine in a scene and no one would laugh (because they are actors trying not to ruin a take), so he would just go harder. The caddies were supposed to be the A plot, but you can't throw Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield and Bill Murray in a movie and not expect them to completely steal the show... Also The 'Cinderella Story' scene was completely improvised. Harold Ramis asked Bill Murray to come up with a funny scene and he asked for a golf club and a couple rows of flowers.

Yes Rodney Dangerfeild is always like that. It comes from his standup routine for which he gets no respect

No he didn't drug her. He had two open half bottles of Perrier water and poured it into one to make it seem he had a fresh bottle and faked all the "bubbles" that were supposed to exist. 🤣

Little bit of trivia about the explosion at the climax: 1-It was so big that a pilot landing at a nearby airport saw it and reported a plane crash. 2-The owners of the resort agreed to let the production crew film most of the movie there with the condition that the 💥 be filmed elsewhere. It got filmed there anyway without their knowledge because Harold Ramis (or maybe someone else) took the owners out to lunch while the crew filmed the 💥. "It's always easier to ask for forgiveness afterwards than permission beforehand." -some sneaky s.o.b.

A few years before making this movie, Bill Murray and Chevy Chase had a fight backstage at "SNL" where they almost came to blows. There was no way the studio was going to make a movie with these huge comedy stars and not have a scene with them together, so even though it was sort of a risk, Ramis asked them if they'd do it. Apparently they worked the scene out together over an afternoon and it was a totally conflict-free part of filming, which was kind of raucous otherwise because there were so many comedians partying all night long while making the movie. A few years later, Chase also visited the set of Ghostbusters; there's a famous picture of him and Murray dancing on the steps of Gozer's shrine.

Ted Knight is pound for pound the funniest guy in the movie, he's in it the most and every time I see it, I appreciate his performance even more. There was stuff in this edit you never see in other edits, stuff I had forgotten about, thanks for that, George. Chevy Chase also is so funny, so understated, the complete opposite of the other three. Just what the movie needs. The movie Harold Ramis and Doug Kenney wrote before this is the one that kicked off this entire type of movie: "National Lampoon's Animal House". If you like this one, check that one out, that's the mother of 'em all.

There's a lot of backstory for this movie. The script started off totally different and was focused on the caddies, particularly Danny. But once they started filming, they took it in another direction since they had such great comedic actors on board. When they finished filming, Harold Ramis (the director) realized he had vignettes but not a storyline that weaved it together. That's when the whole groundhog story was added. Behind the scenes, it was an almost continuous party. Alcohol and drugs were the norm every night of the week. The producers finally had to put their foot down to get things under control. When the movie was released, it didn't do well. It was only over time that it became a beloved classic.

“Looks like a miracu- it’s in the hole! It’s in the hole! “Bill Murray is a not just a national treasure. He is a world treasure.

For me, Bill Murray and the Gopher IS the A plot, and everything else is the B plot.

Yes, that was pretty much Rodney in everything. His improv -insult comedy was his schtick and it was great. Of course, he was doing an act, but he was such a master at it he was able to slip in and out of doing it like a chameleon which is why he was one of the greats.

"Don't sell yourself short judge, you're a tremendous slouch"...this movie has a million great lines. Love this movie

This movie had a totally different storyline and script when originally filmed. Then the comedians showed up and were allowed to just improv like crazy. In the editing room, they managed to put together one of the most nonsensical but hilarious films of all time. The Editor deserved not only an Oscar but director and writing credits.

One of the all time great comedies movies for comedies' sake. If you like the improv lines , there is a movie called "Running Scared" with Billy Crystal and Gregory Hines. It's an 80s, buddy-cop/ action flick but Billy and Gregory improved something like 80% of their lines. Worth a watch.

He was trying to make one bottle of seltzer, out of 2 open bottles. The shaking was trying to make bubbles.

the pacing of these older movies is so different from movies today. I'd love to see you guys react to Bad News Bears (original, not the remake).

To this day, during high-pressure sports moments (like the opposing team going for the winning field goal), I still go "Noonan! Noonan! No-oo-oonan!" 😁

I think the point of the drink was that he was pouring tap water into a fizzy Perrier water bottle, then adding something that fizzes (alka seltzer?) into it, and then pretending to open the bottle fresh. Just a "slob pretending to be classy" bit.

You know, I have been watching this film for almost 40 years of my 42 year old life, I never thought in all that time Ty's noises could be a reference to the Six Million Dollar Man, I thought it was an original gimmick. It totally makes sense now.

The Music for the minister’s golf round, in the rain, was inspired by the 1950s “The Ten Commandments” film Rodney Dangerfield, being a stand-up comedian, had some difficulty with Caddyshack being his first film. It was noted that some of the best scenes were improvised. BTW, the stuffed gopher was a weird “B” storyline, with “I’m Alright” by Kenny Loggins - the theme song.

Oliver Stone's "Natural Born Killers" is the only film where Dangerfield doesn't play his usual on-screen persona. There was more partying than anything else. They were reworking the script as they went along. For one of the film's anniversaries, they released a foot tall figure of the true star of the film, the gopher. It looked exactly as he does in the movie, including "fur". One pushed a button on the base, the Kenny Loggin's song plays while the gopher dances. I wish I still had mine.

the scene when Bill Murray was hacking up the flowers was completely spontaneous.

Jaws vibes when the chocolate d00dy floats was funny as hell.

I could be completely wrong, but I always thought the Scottish groundskeeper in this was the inspiration for Groundskeeper Willie in the Simpsons.

The gopher is the best part of the film. A true legend.

The amazing thing about the "Caldarella story.." scene is that in the script it just says something like: "The groundskeeper trims the weeds". Ramis just let Murry be Murry and it's iconic. Also, if you're looking for more Rodney Dangerfield, I highly recommend a movie of his called Back to School.

Rodney got famous for his stand up act, which is why most of his characters go that route. He does occasionally change it up, but it's always entertaining. As for the mysterious scene with the drinks, Chase consolidates the contents of many open bottles into one almost full looking one, shakes it up to pretend it still has carbonation, and passes it off as new. Great reaction as always, you'll be quoting this movie forever.

My parents were members at a small local country club when I was growing up. If you've never been inside one before you might be surprised how accurate the depiction was of the members in this movie. So many were insufferable snobs. I once saw Caddyshack referred to as The Slobs vs The Snobs. Pretty accurate.

With the Bill Murray pitchfork scene, he really had a real one against that kid,and the kid didnt know he was going to do that and was legit scared. He had a lot of improvised things throughout as you all guessed.

Plan B was 1999, way after this film. Of course it's after Jaws so there's homage there. As for the preacher going for the club record in the driving thunderstorm, I don't know if that's referencing anything. But it does contain my favorite line "I don't think the heavy stuff's coming down for quite some time now." The gopher would be CGI now, for no good reason. The puppet would save millions, and would look more in-world with the shot, and it's fine to be a puppet since it's so ridiculous anyways.

There’s an uncredited writer on this movie: cocaine

Rodney Dangerfield is one of best of the one liners. ‘Back to School’ is an another great comedy staring Dangerfield that can’t be missed

With all the jokes in this, the thing that always gets me is the fourth wall break by the Gopher.

Writer/actor Brian Doyle-Murray's brother - Bill Murray. I guess that's why Brian is also in "Groundhog Day".

The gopher was forced into the story by a studio executive. It really change the original screen play. Also Brian Doyle Murray co-wrote the screen play which is about his and Bill Murray's child hood as caddys. Brian Doyl Murray plays the caddy manager I guess you would call it.

Having seen this back when it first came out, I’ll never forget the collective gasp in the theater when Lacey first walked into the scene.

So many good one-liners from this movie but my favorite has got to be "I don't think the heavy stuff's gonna come down for a little while!"

Rodney Dangerfield had a really disturbing character in 'Natural Born Killers'

There's a little bit about the making of this movie in the bio-pic "A Futile and Stupid Gesture" The movie is about one of the co-founders of the National Lampoon magazine, Doug Kenney, who was also a writer for this movie.

The stars get the attention here, but Michael O’Keefe (Danny) is actually a very good actor. He was nominated for an academy award (“The Great Santini “) and went on to a pretty decent TV career - including very memorable appearances on all three Law and Order shows.

Funny thing about this movie and the summer of 1980. In 1978 Animal House came out and was a big hit, and the guys behind that split up. Ramis did Caddyshack and Landis did Blues Brothers. Those were supposed to be the big comedy hits duking it out at the box office that summer. However, neither really took off at the theaters (both made it really big in the home market, though). Instead, a small production by some brothers who only had one small independent movie before came on the scene and nailed the summer market that year. That movie was Airplane! So if you want to get some context on the humor of 1980, consider that Caddyshack, The Blues Brothers, and Airplane! all came out at the same time.

HEY EVERYBODY, WE'RE ALL GONNA GET LAID!!!

The thumbnail 😂😂😂. A solid Simone "woo" also.

The story i heard was that the story was actually a serious story line with Danny and the girl getting pregnant. But they put Daingerfield, Murray, Chase, and the others and told them to just be them. It quickly turned into a comedy.

"The richer the person, the cheaper they are." So true. I'm a magician, and there's a saying we have: The longer the driveway, the smaller the tip. Meaning the richer the client is, the less they want to tip (or even pay you). It's because they expect to get everything for nothing.

One of the most quoted films ever. First year in college mid 80's, my student apartments got 2 local channels in the semi rural town. We had a VCR player and 2 VHS tapes that we had playing all day everyday. The 2 films were Caddyshack and Apocalypse Now. We literally had the films memorized.

I'm 54 yrs old and I've seen this movie more times than I can remember. Quote it still. I've heard the song in the opening scene, "I'm Alright" by Kenny Loggins a $hit ton of times. It wasn't until a couple of months ago that i found out that Eddie Money sings back up on it. Especially the line, "You make feel good." I'm a huge EM fan too. That blew my mind. Now i hear it and it's so obvious! Hopefully I blew some of your minds with this too. Ha!

The stuffed gopher was added at the last minute towards the end of the movie. That’s why you never see it in the same shot with Murray.

My Dad just passed away a couple days ago and I was looking for something to make me laugh!! I love watching reaction videos and this was hilarious! It's always been one of my favorite movies - and Good Lord it be so offensive today to so many people! I still love it and thanks for the laugh break.

I love that you were giggling about how silly "the shack where the caddies hang out" is, when that's exactly what it means. "You'll get nothing and like it" is the most-quoted line in my friend group.

SIMONE & GEORGE: "Knight's speaking voice also brought him work as a voice artist for various animated series produced by Filmation and Hanna-Barbera, including Star Trek: The Animated Series, The Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure, The Batman/Superman Hour, Journey to the Center of the Earth, Fantastic Voyage, The New Scooby-Doo Movies, Super Friends, and Lassie's Rescue Rangers. The Mary Tyler Moore Show "His role as the vain and untalented WJM newscaster Ted Baxter on The Mary Tyler Moore Show brought Knight widespread recognition and his greatest success. He received six Emmy Award nominations for the role, winning the Emmy for 'Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in Comedy' in 1973 and 1976." -Wikipedia

What, I just got the notification and there are already 20 comments. Gee the wi-fi in Australia is so slow 😀😀

The music from the rainstorm scene is from the classic movie The Ten Commandments

I can't go to a mini golf place without saying "nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh nuh.....fufufufufufufufu...."

The dad WAS asking "his" kid his name. That's the joke. It implies he has so many kids that he has issues remembering them all and has to ask their names. Which is why he wasn't even sure if that kid was his or not. Also, Ted Knight is the real MVP of this film.

"They forgot all about the explosions!" To be fair, no one goes to golf for the explosions.

The music playing with Bill Murray and the priest golfing in the storm was from the famous film, the 10 Commandments.

Summer of 1980 movies: Caddyshack, Airplane!, The Blues Brothers, The Shining, Friday the 13th. The year I graduated high school was so great.

"you'll get nothing and like it!" I've been using that line for 40 years and it still makes me laugh.

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. So much of the comedy is on the nose, but so much of it is also subtle and stuff you might not pick up on upon a first viewing. Great casting, a simple enough plot that allows each of the characters to do their thing without overshadowing each other, and the perfect amount of absurdity.

FYI: the dude in charge of the caddies is Bill Murray’s real life brother, Brian Doyle Murray.

The only time Rodney Dangerfield was not his usual self was Natural Born Killers, and he was terrifying.

"He's such a weirdo! He's so outrageous! Ted Knight is hilarious!" My thoughts exactly Simone. I love how bizarre he is, and how angry he gets 🤣🤣🤣 "You'll get nothing and like it!" is one of my favorite lines ever.

'Spalding Get Your Foot Off The Boat' is one of my favorite poems...

The great irony of Rodney Dangerfield is that his stand-up comedy was all about how he doesn't get respect. But his best movie roles (Caddyshack and Back to School) are where he plays a wealthy hotshot. You guys should watch Back to School.

One thing to remember is this was written as a teen coming of age film about Danny, But once the comedic talent on set got rolling They ditched most of the script and Focused more attention on Chevy Chase and Bill Murray.

Definitely would recommend Back to School for more Rodney Dangerfield. It's very funny, and has a young Robert Downey Jr. in it.

Any time there’s a piano in a friend’s house it’s either Imagine or Chevy Chase’s song that gets played lol

It was great that Simone found the Bill Murray flower whacking seen so funny. When I was much younger we quoted that scene constantly...."It's a Cinderella story....." Lot of great small moment jokes....i.e. "Hey!! you scratched my anchor" and many memes including Ted Knight's "WELL! We're waiting"

LMFAO !! I'm 65 & LOVE this movie for MANY Reasons.....#1 I met Rodney Dangerfield in late 70's, backstage at a Comedy Club NYC ...Going in backstage door I stumbled into Rodney , He grabbed me, kept me from falling & said " Hey!! Who brought the Hobbit ??" ..he then asked if I was OK ? what's your name? ...I said Froda ...he got the pun && said " I like this girl she's funny !!...then I told him I had HUGE laugh over Hobbit comment because Hobbit & Penguin were my nicknames in H.S. got HUGE laugh when he made joke over the penguin thing , saying " Funny, you don't look like a Nun !!" && #2 Decades later knew on 2nd date Now Hubby was keeper...1st time to house...Saw he had EVERY Episode of Lost in Space on VHS &&& had battery powered Gopher from Caddyshack...It dances & sings the song " I'm Alright"....LOL !! Thanks for giving an Old Nerd a Big Smile !!

So much improv dialogue in this movie .... With the actor/comedian types in this epic movie. This film is probably this most quoted movie of all time.

2:39 simone, you will love The Nice Guys (2016)!

According to the documentary about the making of this movie, the flower scene was 100% improv.

OMG Simone as the Goffer was hilarious and had me laughing even before I clicked on play. I love this movie so much, one of the comedies my Dad and I would quote to each other allll the time.

Lacey Underall was played by Cindy Morgan. She was also the girl, Yori, in the original Tron.

I grew up in Ottawa and saw this on CTV when I was a kid. This was back in the day when movies had "EDITED FOR TELEVISION" stamped across the bottom of the screen, swearing was cut (or dubbed over) and all nudity was cut. They actually missed one brief shot of Lacey that would have made Peter Griffin's "Side-Boob Hour". I think it's hilarious that she just pranced around in that shirt and it was no big deal for 80s TV but you can't even show it on your KZfaq video. Unbelievable. LOVE your channel. You guys are the best! I'm gonna watch your drunk Q&A now. Cheers!

Would love a couple of Rodney Dangerfield reactions: Back to School (VERY 80s comedy), and Natural Born Killers (definitely his darkest role, albeit a small part; crazy movie)

The pool was only open to caddy's for 15 minutes lol from 1 to 1:15

I first watched this movie as an adult. I completely lost my shit at the snickers bar

"Fore!". "I should've yelled Two!" never fails to make me burst out laughing. Rodney was such a gem.

"Canonball" is an old term for taking a toke (weed), then a shot (any alcohol, but usually whiskey or tequila) while holding the smoke in.

There is a ton of backstory and behind the scenes written about this. When you get a chance, highly recommend you look into it. Some is very amusing.

I saw a National Lampoon documentary and they covered the making of this (and their other) films and apparently the lead actors: Chase, Murray, Dangerfield, the guy who played Danny were all high on coke in almost every scene they're in. Ramis implied that's one of the main reasons the film was completed on time.

Mine is a minor voice, but I have a request... My favorite Bill Murray movie is "stripes" he co-stars with Harold Ramis and John Candy, with Warren Oates ("Dillinger"). I was a military brat and saw this for the first time when I was living on an Airbase in Germany in the late 80's. I never had a positive view of military life, except for the aspects highlighted in this movie - nor had I ever laughed so hard!!! Love this reaction, you guys are awesome!

The 'epic' round of golf with Bill Murray and the bishop is a parody reenactment of the Charlton Heston movie The Ten Commandments. Specifically the scene where Mosses climbs the mountain.

If you rewatch the final scene of PSYCHO, when one guard delivers the blanket to the cell, the other guard holding the door open is Ted Knight.

15:36 Perrier mineral water is supposed to be fizzy, but that bottle has been open for a while.

he just mixed a bunch of the open bottles together to make it look like a new one. and then did a little distraction while he pretended to open it. no drugging.

I love that this movie has only the most gossamer strand of a plot to hang all of the bits on.

I know Cindy Morgan (who played Lacy Underall) and her stories about what went on while making that movie are LEGENDARY! ...the cast and crew filmed in Florida, pretended that it was Illinois, and partied their way through a freaking HURRICANE!!!! Seriously, they partied through a hurricane. And this was the first movie that Harold Ramis ever directed.

I'm sure someone has mentioned this but the entire scene between Chevy Chase and Bill Murray in his "home" was ad lib. Bill Murray was given very few lines in the script. he was just given a situation and told to go for it. Comedy GOLD!

Rodney's characters are rather similar all are pretty much based off his stand-up routine. He has a movie where he's the main character called *(Back To School)*

Lots of improv in this movie. In the massage scene, Cindy Morgan's reactions are real. She didn't know what Chevy Chase was going to do.

If you do check out more Rodney Dangerfield, "Back To School" should be next. Not only is it probably his best movie, you get the added bonus of seeing a very young Robert Downey Jr.

George, you are absolutely right: Chevy Chase was doing the Six Million Dollar Man sound effect that all of us kids who watched that show made far too often. 😂

Hi Simone & George!🙂The guy in charge of the Caddys was a young Brian Doyle-Murray (Bill Murray's brother). You guys saw him a year ago in "Groundhog Day" when he was older, as the guy who officiated the groundhog ceremony. Nice reactions to this classic 80s comedy, Kids!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

The night golfing scene with Bishop Pickering (Henry Wilcoxon) and Carl (Bill Murray) was a reference to Cecil B. DeMille's 'The Ten Commandments' (1956) which Wilcoxon was in.

The only role where Dangerfiel deviated from his shtik is in Natural Born Killers and even there it's still him but with an evil allignment

Love the puppet Gopher. It's my go to wedding dance!

I think the golf scene with the preacher and Bill Murray was referencing biblical movies, such as Ben-Hur or The Ten Commandments. I've never seen Rodney Dangerfield be any other way, even on interviews I've watched. So many great comedians in this!
