I miss movies like this...back in my day; kids would watch movies like this with whole family( John Candy is such a treasure, so glad yall found him)❤

One of my favorite movies as a kid. No one used John Candy's talent better than John Hughes. He really saw beyond just the comedy ability to Candy's true and usually untapped talents. Only the Lonely really showcases what Candy is capable of as a leading man and we see that potential for preformances with depth in certain scenes here as well. What a great talent Candy was and what a great writer John Hughes was.

I think you guys would really like Grumpy Old Men. It's so funny and has two amazing actors you're probably not familiar with... Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau, and one you are familiar with Burgess Meredith, who played Mickey in Rocky.

RIP, John Candy. ",Big..big...big bear chase me!" Lol!! One of the funniest and most memorable lines in the movie.

The song at the end, that Dan Akroyd was dancing to is by; Wilson Pickett. It's called "Land of a 1,000 dances" and you did a reaction to it like a year ago. 😃

"Go find yourself a Spin Cycle!" Yes! I am so glad you guys finally watched this movie. I watch it every summer with the whole family. And most of all I'm happy that you liked it too.🎥💖

The actress playing the wife of John Candy is absolutely hysterical. She is so funny and is an actress who deserved more and better roles than she was given. Whatever she did she was a joy to watch. You'll recoginze her as Max's mom from Hocus Pocus. I love her to pieces.

Absolutely a classic! Love this movie. Summer Rental is also a great Candy film. 😂 In upstate New York, especially in the central Adirondacks, it was quite common to go to the local dump to watch the bears. We use to go all the time visiting Piseco Lake except we didn’t throw Zagnuts to the bears. Lol Great times growing up in the 70s and 80s.

I cant imaging going through life without John Candy in it. There's not a single movie he's been in regardless of the size of the role that I don't adore. From the stories that are told of him off screen about how he truly was the kindest, most generous, sweetest man anyone could meet. We miss you John but will never forget you.

God, I miss John candy. ❤️😔

I loved this film so much as a kid. My Dad and I used to rent it from the video store multiple times every summer. A couple of times we brought the TV out on the back porch at his house and camped out there and watched this movie. John Candy was such a treasure and I think I miss him more than any other actor that we’ve lost.

FYI, the dancing at the end was the actual cast party at the end of filming. They took a camera in, filmed, and decided to include it in the movie credits.

“You wouldn’t know a good time if it fell out of the sky, landed on your face and started to wiggle.”😂 I have loved this movie since I saw it theatrically.👍

Absolute legends. Back in the days of great family movies. John Candy never disappointed.

The Great Outdoors was a "classic". Sure, it isn't going to win an Academy Award, but it was a lot of fun with lots of laughs. I remember seeing my first bears in the great outdoors at an open pit dump in the UP of Michigan. I thought is was great, but my sisters freaked out because the bear was next to our car. Never saw a guy on crutches move so fast when he got too close to some cubs and the mama bear didn't like it! And in the Great Lakes region, yellow perch are considered a delicacy. They may not be big, but they are delicious.

You both are gonna watch Pulp Fiction?! Ok you’re in for an experience. I definitely can’t wait to see your reaction. The movie is very violent in certain scenes, but the story lines and acting are incredible. I really hope you enjoy it.

This reminds me of my parents and sister. In a cabin in the Smoky Mountains, watching “The Great Outdoors” VHS tape together. Eating snacks, sitting by the fireplace. It was amazing.

Glad you both liked this movie!! Wilson Pickett sings the song at the end: The Land of 1000 Dances!!

Roman's theme when he's driving up to the cabin still makes me laugh. That music is so perfect for that character.

You guys need to watch “Splash” with Tom Hanks, John Candy and Daryl Hannah!

Did you miss the post credit scene with the raccoons? They had a joke about the bear being bald on both ends. My father had an old saying: “Bare assed bear goes potty in the woods” so he loved that joke.

June 1988: I spent my birthday at Bass Lake, where this movie was shot. My father wanted to be the cool dad, so he showed us how to use a rope swing. The rope snapped on the way down, and he hit 3 inches of water, breaking his back for the second time on a birthday of mine. I always remember that story when I think of this movie. P.S. I got a bicycle for my birthday that year after the trip in the ambulance.

Such a timeless summer time classic with two legends . Another classic John Candy film you gotta watch is “Summer Rental”probably my very favorite.

If you guys haven't already, I would highly suggest Spaceballs, it's another John Candy gem. I cried the day he passed, he was a favorite in my house growing up. He was also in Blues Brothers with Dan Aykroyd, he played Detective Mercer.

One of my favorites. Underrated gem. FYI- for bears, if it's black, fight back. Brown, lay down. If it's white, your about to see the light. Never run from a bear, they will think your food.

After Jordan talking about how he hates birds does anyone else think it would be great to see Amber and Jordan react to Alfred Hitchcock's movie "The Birds" from 1963

The way he walks in the twins room and says “good evening” always kills me

Don't forget, John Candy was also in Blues Brothers. "Summer Rental" is another Candy film similar to this one where he plays the dad on vacation.

I forgot all about this movie until now. What a classic. If you havent seen "Cool Running". That is a great John Candy movie. Also, if you want to watch a great movie of ppl who are out of place. " City Slickers" with Billy Crystal and Daniel Stern is an amazing one

Another fun movie with John Candy is Summer Rental. There's also Splash with Tom Hanks.

This is one of my favorite classics. Can never go wrong with these two actors. 🥰👏👏👏

You'll love "Summer Rental" (1985) with John Candy.

Great reaction! Another great John Candy movie you might want to react to is Summer Rental. Keep up the great work!

John Candy was the epitome of a great actor. He took every role he was in, comedy or drama, serious. Man, did he go too soon!

Another classic movie. John Candy was such a beloved actor. RIP John. Gone but never forgotten

Bert the Bear was also in a great wilderness thriller called *The Edge* with Anthony Hopkins & Alec Baldwim

This was my favorite movie when I was a kid. I loved it! So hilarious! Dan Aykroyd is the best… it’s what I do, it’s what I do! I still say that to this day! 😂

I'm so glad to see you're watching this. It's easily in my Top 10 comedies of all time. John Candy was the BEST!

Thank you for watching this! Now, watch another great summer move: My Girl (1991) starring Dan Ackroyd, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Macaulay Culkin.

Another 80s comedy you both might like is Spies Like Us, starring Dan Aykroyd and Chevy Chase. As for Tarantino, there is no way to ease into his movies. Most of us discovered him from watching Pulp Fiction, and i would advise that is also where you two should start. His movies are violent and gory (although sometimes the overuse of violence and gore adds an almost comical touch)but always an interesting and fun ride. There is nothing to fear from Tarantino movies and you will love the ride.

YES!!!! This is my favorite JC movie!!! I think its because we use to go to our cottage every summer and stuff like in the movie would happen...sooooo good!!!! RIP John Candy❤ Also, the song at the end is called The Land of a Thousand Dances by Wilson Pickett

Guys, for your next John Candy film, please do COOL RUNNINGS, its about the 1988 Jamaican bob sled team in the 88 Olympics and its based on a true story, the film came out in 93, I believe, John plays the coach, it is very uplifting, I think you guys woud love it!

The song they were dancing to at the end of the movie is "Land Of A Thousand Dances" by Wilson Pickett (link below). Wilson Pickett is definitely worth diving into! He was renowned as an energetic and intense performer during the 60s and 70s. He gained international fame with hits like “Land of 1,000 Dances”, “In the Midnight Hour”, and "Mustang Sally", and became one of the biggest black music stars of the 1960s and 1970s. Great movie reaction! Thanks you two! ✌💙✌ Land Of A Thousand Dances - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/adOqkqiJrbGreKc.html

This was my dad’s favorite movie. Every time they showed the bear’s butt he would absolutely LOSE it 😂 He passed away 30 years ago almost to the day so this was a treat to watch you watch his favorite in his memory ❤

Another John Candy gem you should see is Cool Runnings. Based on a true story.

Love this movie, so funny!! And what a cast!! Wilson Picket singing Land of 1000 Dances at the end! Cherry on top!! The bat scene always kills me! 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤

All the movies that started John Candy, Dan Akroyd, Tom Hanks and Chevy Chase together were Winners..!

This one and "Summer Rental" are criminally underrated classics!!

Pulp Fiction is super entertaining, but rough language and dark themes. However, the huge ensemble cast all put in great performances. Such a pop-culture icon you have to see it.

OMG I can't believe you two are reacting to this, so fun, amazing movie 🥰

I love when Roman says, "I felt my plaque start flowing again!" 💀💀💀

One of my favorite movies as a kid back in the 80s.

This is one of my all time favorite classic movies. Glad y'all watched it!!

this was one of my all time childhood favorites love to see you two enjoying it :)

It's so funny when John Candy pulls the bear out of the hole and they come face to face, the bear says "YOU!", like it remembered him. 😆🤣

Robert Prosky is one of my favorite supporting actors. Loved him ever since i saw him as Will Darnell in stephen king's Christine!

Love this movie, so glad you guys watched this one! We need to get Gross Point Blank on the watchlist. John Cusack and Dan Akroyd in a comedy/action/romance with one of the best soundtracks!

Back in the early, 90's when I lived in W. Central Arkansas. I took care of a couple month old black bear cubs who's mamma got killed, for 2 weeks, until DNR came and picked them up. It was a lot of fun!

The 80s was crazy deep with Legendary comedians

You two should watch Harry and the Hendersons. It's about the antics of a family who adopt Bigfoot. You'll love it!

For a sweet drama about years of friendship, I recommend “DRIVING MISS DAISY” with Dan Ackroyd, Morgan Freeman, and Jessica Tandy.

and a few years after this, we get Camp Candy, one of my favorite cartoons as a kid. Will forever miss that hearty laugh.

Ah what a classic. You missed the end credit scene with the raccoons! Did you hear about Rosie? She's bald at both ends now! 😂

One of my favorite Dan Aykroyd movies is "My Stepmother is an Alien". I think you both would enjoy that movie.

Love the great outdoors and summer rental. Watch them every summer. As a Tarantino fan I will say I think Pulp Fiction is the mildest one of his movies. It is also IMO one of his best. His movies aren’t for PC heavy people who offend easy so just remember that as you go into it. Some great performances in that movie if you can overlook the 5 or so scenes that offend easily offended people

As someone has said 1991 film "My Girl" it was a big film at the time with dan Aykroyd and many other famous actors. But its a drama rather than his usual comedic roles. You see a different side to him and a great way to see the 70's.

This movie brings back nice memories. My older half-sister use to stay with us a few weeks every summer when we were young. She would take me to the movies all the time when she visited, this is one of the movies we watched.

Awesome Friday Jay and Amber!! Since ya love the classics, I gotta recommend "Scavenger Hunt (1979)" and the star-studded "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad World" and "Summer Rental" (John Candy)

I agree with the recommendations for Cool Runnings, it’s a fun movie based on real events. And John Candy plays the coach. As for Pulp Fiction, Quentin Tarantino movies are known for a lot of swearing and violence but he doesn’t linger on anything for too long (as far as I can remember) and there’s comedy sprinkled in to make it more palatable..I’m sure you guys will be fine.

This was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid. Such a fun movie!

You just made my day and yes you made me smile. Thank you so much! I have been asking for this for awhile. Growing up every boat was suck my wake. Love to the whole family.

A fish called wanda, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels and There's Something about Mary are a Must. A Fish Called Wanda has 2 Monty Python actors in it. It was my fav movie for a long time.

The Great Outdoors very funny. Other great movies "Spaceballs" and "Summer Rental" & "Cool Running" with John Candy

I lived there while they filmed this movie. The restaurant was a real thing, it burned down years later. They built the cabin just for the movie and knocked it down after filming. Bass Lake in Oakhurst California just outside Yosemite.

I loved Summer Rental as a kid.

The next time you want to do a John Candy movie, please consider "Summer Rental" It is one of my favorites of his. I loved this reaction, thank you.

Trading places is one of my favourite Dan Ackroyd movies ❤ but really anything he did turned out good

The Great Outdoors AND Funny Farm (with Chevy Chase) are two classics!

The ending song, Land of a Thousand Dances, is sung by Wilson Pickett (AKA Wicked Wilson Pickett).

Who's Harry Crumb. Is another great John Candy movie. A must watch😊

Goodday, Jay and Amber! Hope you all are having a great weekend! I HIGHLY recommend y'all watch/react to "Leon: The Professional" (1994). It stars Gary Oldman, Natalie Portman (who played Padme in the Star Wars films), Jean Reno, and Danny Aiello. This is one of the best movies ever made!

John Candy in Summer Rental is my favorite!

The ending dance song is from the great Wilson Pickett, "Land of a 1000 Dances". Also listen to "Midnight Hour" from him.

Summer Rental is also a good one!

You should watch Dan Aykroyd in Driving Miss Daisy. Completely flips the script. It's a GREAT movie with Morgan Freeman. And I'm not sure, but have you seen vacation? It just reminded me when you said the luggage falling off the roof. Also, John Candy in Splash. Not sure if you've seen that one yet.

When I was a kid in Michigan we would vacation in the Upper Peninsula. There was no tv, radio, and obviously no cellphones. Every night at sunset we would drive to the dump, turn on the headlights and watch the bears. That was our #1 form of entertainment.

Wilson Pickett sings that song called "Land of A Thousand Dances". A great one!! Love this movie, John Candy is fabulous!!

THANK YOU, if you want another John Candy classic, Summer Rental is a lot of fun.

Why would anyone skip this movie? It's hilarious lol, my mom loved it and always died laughing when the bear butt had its fur blown off lmfao :D

Yeah Guys, when I was a kid we went to northern Wisconsin every summer for vacation. When I was little we did the dump thing watching the bears dig through the garbage with a ring of cars around the high side with the headlights on. There was a pinball arcade on main street and go carts and mini bikes on the edge of town. Horse riding stables and places to rent boats and all kind of stuff. Going fishing with the small boat that came with the cabin. We usually used worms for bait but sometimes we would get leeches or minnows. There was and probably still is a place called Paul Bunyans that the restaurant in the movie is imitating. That was in the 60's and 70's. Everything has changed. You can't get into the dump unless you can prove you're a local resident, the arcade is gone, and the town has traffic lights and a mall. There was a stop sign at each end of town when I was a kid. And yes when I reached high school age I had a Cammy only she was staying at the same resort, not a local girl. Plus it was a three room cabin with a wood stove for heat not a two story lodge.

Guys it was Steve Martin with John Candy in 'Planes, Trains and Automobiles'

Put Nothing But Trouble on your list. Dan Akroyd...John Candy...Chevy Chase. Totally insane comedy.

John Candy and Dan Aykroyd at their finest. Absolutely brilliant. If you like this, you will enjoy films by Savage Steve Holland, mainly One Crazy Summer and Better Off Dead. Another John Candy "vacation" movie you would like is Summer Rental.

Wilson Pickett is the singer . The name of the song is Land Of 1000 Dances . His other great songs are In The Midnight Hour , and also Mustang Sally .

The raccoons were hilarious. I had the biggest crush on Lucy Deakins as a boy. The ending credits dance sequence is all-time great. Plus Candy and Aykroyd are comedy gold. God I love this movie.

Please watch Stripes. Candy has a much smaller role but still hilarious. Stars Bill Murray and Harold Ramis.

Pulp Fiction is awesome! I think you're gonna dig it! I can only really think of 1 super intense scene! And some intense language. Don't worry about it. I'm sure yall've seen worse. I'm excited for yall to see it!

Classic movie! Love your Monday and Friday videos but the Friday ones are so much better after a long week of work. Thanks guys!

The music at the end is called Land of 1000 Dances, and it's actually performed in this instance by the Blues Brothers, or in this case Elwood Blues Revue since Belushi was dead by now. It also guest stars Wilson Pickett, who sang the original. With the exception of Yackety Sax at the beginning, most of the music to this movie was written specially for it and played by the Blues Brothers band members. It's an excellent soundtrack.

🧡💛 I've got a (John Candy) movie y'all will LOOOVE! It's a good family movie, it's called (Summer Rental), please react to that. I'm watching this reaction now. 🍿🥤
