Half critic, half bunny. She dwells in two worlds but she is the mistress of both. OH OBSCURUS LEPUS! YOU ARE NATURE'S GREATEST WONDER!

Jack Nicholson was considered for the role of Stanley. That would have been an... interesting movie.

I love how the toy in the background makes it look like you have bunny ears.

Actually, the movie I was reminded of the most here was The Addams Family. A strange, quirky, but well-meaning family who live in a world where all the "normal" people simply don't understand their wildly specific values. The difference is, that movie had genuinely appealing characters and a plot that allows us to root for them, while this one wants nothing more than to give the audience a migraine. There were a lot of those during the mid-90's, weren't there?

I like Allison continuing to try to find positives about the movie and Phelan immediately being like "Nah, it sucked." over and over again.

Allison really enjoys Phelan’s pain more than anything any movie can offer.

Great review. I was in stitches with Tom Arnold's tear-filled award for Stanley Stupid and the animated dog comes on stage. Ruh Roh

The bunny ears behind Allison’s head are so perfect for this review.

The dynamic duo is back!

Dumb question, but if he thinks someone is stealing his trash every week, then why does he keep putting it out in the trash cans?

Anyone else notice how Allison is being given bunny ears in the thumbnail? Very appropriate for the tone of this movie, I feel.

Hooray! Happy once again to see the team of ObscurusLupa and Phelous! ^_^

I remember seeing this with my family in theaters, and to this day all I ever remembered was the "I'm My Own Grandpa" song. Also, to this day, my Dad says this is one of the stupidest movies he's ever seen. I like to think back to him sitting next to me in the theater while I'm probably laughing like a doofus while he's just shaking his head in disbelief.

This movie is literally burned into the back of my brain - I watched it a couple times with my sisters when I was like 10 and I’ve never forgotten about it. Every so often I get “I’m My Own Grandpa” stuck in my head.

Legitimately and unironically one of my favorite movies, even today. I love the dumb silliness of it all.

This is a work of genius!!! Thank the Lloyd. It takes a genius level of intellect to truly appreciate this.

They saw the random chickens in Sinbad Battle of the Dark Knights and went "Eureka. That's what our gas station wacky scene needs."

9:49 Um... I guess Phelan is a teletubbie now.

I definitely wasn't prepared for Frankie Faison to show up, as Our Lloyd in Heaven. Humble beginnings. Also, I like Phelan's shirt. Especially the Blackscreen Lodge effect. When I saw the title, I immediately typed "Max Landis' finest hour" but thankfully watched the entire video before posting.

Is this one of those Tremors Cold Day in Hell heatwaves?

Phelous wears a Black Lodge T-shirt. Tom Arnold's 1992-93 show, _The Jackie Thomas Show,_ had the highest American network prime time debut ratings since _Twin Peaks._ These days, all anyone remembers _Jackie Thomas_ for is Roseanne's faxing pissy letters to three critics after bad reviews. Also, it was in the Nielsen Top 20 because _Roseanne's_ lead-in power had that effect on shows.

I remember my dad renting this when I was little at a hole in the wall rental place. We both fell asleep in the middle of it.

11:02 Even the candle got the bunny ears, I love it!

Your hairdo in this video is really cute. And I saw your comment about where you got that top, I actually ordered one before commenting, because I love it so much.

Oh, no love for Barry BlueJeans? A million points to anyone who gets that reference. I havent seen this movie in forever but I'm not gonna lie I laughed super hard when you showed the scene in the car with Tom Arnold and he screams "Oh no the Drive B!". I don't know why but I just cracked up. I would say this movie is half funny, and just half well genuinely stupid. But I'd be lying if I said it didnt make laugh 😅

I’ve just discovered this channel and have been watching everything on it while in bed sick for the last week. 👍👍

Your top is really pretty, Allison!

I actually love this movie, as moronic and nonsensical as it is. Strangely, unlike 'The Master of Disguise', this isn't based off of nostalgia; I didn't see this movie until I was in high schoool. But your reactions to it are priceless, as was the Oscar clip.

Chroma-keying the movie into the Black Lodge on Phelan's t-shirt? We are truly in the presence of genius.

The Stupids would only win a prize if it was by Stanley Stuprick.

Holy crap, through this, I was able to reconnect with my past. I'm my own grandpa, brought me to, You Can't do that on Television, which also made my remember Turkey TV. Which both shows are connected with a few performers of the first. Maybe the other way around, as I remember this song from Turkey Television. So by watching two groovy people talking about the Stupids, I was able to connect the dots, and find myself back to the past. This is awesome. Thank you so much, Allison and Phelan.

I've been looking forward to this so much.

I don't hate this one as much as you two do, but I think a lot of this just comes down to Tom Arnold. I don't think he's brilliant by any stretch, but he just seems so... sincere? in this kind of role in a way where someone like a Rob Schneider or Kevin James wouldn't, if we're talking not terribly funny comedic actors. That, or I'm just thinking of how much worse McHale's Navy was to young me.

The movie appearing on Phelans' shirt is probably my favorite part.

I saw a video essay that leaned toward this actually being a fairly biting piece of satire, if you look at it from the tropes of a traditional film and setting and how it subverts those somewhat subtly. This doesn't make it a GOOD movie, but it explains a lot about it. And in these trying times, I've started really taking solace in figuring out WHY or HOW things suck, even if it doesn't FIX that they suck.

Great to see the team together again! But the bunny ears in the background win this episode! 😂😂 Now, I may need to see the movie!

I remember reading 'The Stupid' books when I was a kid and thinking they were funny. The only thing I remember from the movie were the advertisements and the cat. And on your comment about 'What if everything the Stupids were paranoid about was real and it was a conspiracy!?' thing, they did do that. It's called Dan Vs.

Yay, I get to see you two before I go to work! Think I'll watch it again when I get back.

This whole time I was thinking "they have to mention the Max Landis part." Saved the best for last honestly.

I love you guys. Times are dark, in many ways, but you're both still here to put a smile on my face and take my mind off things. Thank you so so very much xxxx

How the hell did Tom Arnold get FOUR headline roles in the mid-1990's?

I watched The Stupids as a kid and the first thing I think of is Drive Bee. That bee is so cute.

I used to love this movie when I was little

For whatever reason I was really looking forward to this one. Was not disappointed.

The editing is on point tonight 👌🏻

tom arnold in this sounds and kinda looks like linkara

Love your videos!💓

im mesmerized by the t shirt broadcast, and this is hard to sell me off of seeing the movie because for some reason the bush bit clip is so funny to me

Garbage Day! So is this movie Lloyd approved?

Phelan: I also love The Man Who Knew Too Little, it is an underrated comedy gem from Bill Murray's filmography

You have no idea how long I waited for someone to review this masterpiece.

This is a fun, dumb comedy. Its one of those movies where you just turn off your brain for 90 minutes and enjoy it. My favorite part is Stanley Stupid singing "I'm My Own Grandpa", still makes me crack up to this day!

The editing on this is stellar

11:03 Those damn bunny ears freaking made me burst out laughing!

ive never seen this movie sober

I want to thank the academy for acknowledging my work, my family for supporting me and the Lloyd for cleaning up my messes.

This was one of our families favorite movies back then. Haven't seen it in years, and it's probably terrible now, but it brings back good memories.

It is so nice to hear both your voices again, it has been too long. Smashing that subscribe button and punching the bell.

I discovered that I am Allison. I can sit through the most garbage dreck in the world and still enjoy my viewing experience if the person I'm watching the garbage with is also miserable.

At least this movie makes good on its promises.. It's the Stupids! Can't get anymore correct than that.

Why do late Nineties screwball comedies always seem to have the same trailer?

Wow! Lupa looks great! 😍

The editing in this video is just...

"The Stupids" sounds like a throw away gag in a Disney channel sitcom. Like if the main characters are watching TV or something. "Now back to The Stupids!"

I watched this movie a lot as a kid lol I always thought it was funny for how stupid it was xD

Were the bunny ears behind Lupas head intentional?!?

The opening is sooooo great!

I love you twos! You two will always be in there with my favorite comedians ever. To Allison and Phelan, "Cheers!" The next step of dumb! Lol. Secretly pretending to be stupid. Lol. No line of logic. P.S. You guys have fun editing and are good with voices.

Oh come on!!! "The drive B" I loved it.

The Dynamic Duo this is a great thing :3

In middle school way back in 1996, they showed us an anti-drug film that used current movies in a montage set to Gravity Kills' song Guilty. The Stupids was both utilized to promote the film AND make allusions to how people are stupid on drugs. Wrap your head around that one.

Bruce Almighty stole the "God is a Janitor" theme (with Morgan Freeman) !!!

Allison was a kid in 1996, thanks for making me feel old!

“Not John Landis’ finest hour”😂😂 don’t worry he had some worse ones

Holy crap, I remember watching this movie on TV about 15 years ago and I’d completely forgotten about it...until now.

Seems about the right time for a sequel.

Tom Arnold's sole reason for fame is that at some point, on at least one occasion, he made Rosanne Barr feel really, really good. That's literally the entirety of it.

I love how every single time one of you quoted the "What in the World??" line it sounded 10 times more believable than the actual delivery in the movie.

It looks like someone is behind Allison giving her bunny ears lol but its *actually* (in my Phelan voice) a bunny toy.

If you pause at 20:24, you get the perfect still image of Allison trying to explain The Stupids to Phelan's corpse.

I remember liking this as a kid, but........ maaaaaaaaaaan oh man

I love the opening. Reminds me so much of late night tv in the late 80s early 90s.

In the last Night Visions festival in Helsinki there was a showcase of John Landis movies. I even got the honor of getting his autograph. This movie was never mentioned. Gee I wonder why. ; D

I remember renting this movie ages ago!

I will always love this movie

I read some of these books as a kid, vaguely remember them. But I do love this movie. Not sure why but I do xD

Two wheels, Four Wheels... EIGHT WHEELS!!!

I'm half-man, half-horse, half-alligator

Praise the Loyd for this video.

New movie night + Phelous = much much happiness

It's funny to note the child actor who played the son was the same kid who played Alfalfa in The Little Rascals (1994).

Those bunny ears above Allison haha

Oh sweet Hades, the Ghostbusters toys!

I loved the editing in the tire part

Wait, I am new here. Love you and phelan. I always thought phelans voice as part of his character. It’s actually how he sounds? Lol that’s awesome!!! I feel so stupid, it makes him even more awesome.

I remember the trailer for this movie. And just like Alison, the one thing that stuck in my memory was "Someone stole our trash again!"

I can already tell this movie is gonna be my guilty pleasure

It may be stupid, but i legit gigged HARD at those movie clips 😂

My favourite show is always sunny in Philadelphia. And this is my favourite comedy film. It's so much fun in how dumb it is.
