One of the funniest action comedy movies ever made! RIP, Bubba Smith, Hightower RIP, George Gaines, Captain Lazard RIP, Marian Ramsay, Hooks RIP, Ted Ross, Captain Reed RIP, David Graf, Tackleberry RIP, Debralee Scott, Mrs. Fackler.

Yeah Michael Winslow was in Spaceballs..He monitored the "bleeps,the sweeps,aaand the creeps!"

30:33 the fun detail of him being the only one standing really shows that his character really understands more about guns than the others because he knows it is safe since the gun wasn't re-cocked after it was fired

39:10 The film you're thinking about is 'Hancock' a 2008 Action/Comedy Superhero film starring Will Smith, Charlize Theron, Jason Bateman, and Eddie Marsan

Michael Winslow is a godsend!😂

Bubba Smith played for several NFL teams before transitioning to acting. .

Bubba Smith was a Linebacker for The Colts, The Raiders, and the Oilers before becoming an actor youngsters. Just so you know about the legend that played Hightower.

This show explains why I never became a cop. There’s a 99% chance I would accidentally shoot myself on the first day.

There's a meme that shows the Blue Oyster sign that says something like.... Who says u can't hear pictures?😂

the way i SCREAMED when i saw this in my subbox! i used to binge these movies every single summer as a kid

“Now, on this first SLIDE!!!”😂 This movie is so stupid, I love it.

I read somewhere that when Hightower flipped the car over, Bubba Smith legit did it. No ropes, no camera tricks, no nothing.

Loved how instead of punching his stomach he slaps Tackleberry. No one expected that.😂

Michael Winslow is the GOAT. He needs to be hired for every sound effect whether it's the small or the big screen. He is a national treasure. That guy who grabs the guns is the same guy who appears in X-Men film back in 2000 and the alternate ending of X-Men: The Last Stand when Wolverine goes back to the same bar to get his drink.

The "head up the ass" moment you remember is from Hancock. :)

Tackleberry is the only one who doesn’t duck when Barbara sweeps the crowd with his shotgun. Cadet Barbara already fired and did not yet chamber a new round (found it online)

Welcome to the greatness that is the LEGENDARY Blue Oyster Bar. (Cue the music)

The guy walking down the street enjoying his apples is the best thing ever. His bag was full to the brim with apples. He was just walking with his buddy eating his apples. I hear the Butter's song lu lu lu, I got some apples.

We still use, "today Hooks" whenever someone takes to long to do anything 😊

Fun Fact: the driver hightower hit is actually the director of the film, had to play the part due to the actual actor driver was passed out drunk in the trailer

"Lieutenant Mustache" (played by Ted Ross RIP) played Cowardly Lion in the original stage play/1978 film The Wiz!

😊 Steve Gutenberg, you might recognize from three men and a little baby and three men and a little lady and he was in cocoon. 😊Yes john, he was in Spaceballs 😊Hightower was played by Bubba Smith, RIP, who was a pro football defensive end. 😂 George Gaines. RIP. Great character actor, but probably most remembered for being punky Brewster’s foster dad 😊Douglas Lennox, RIP, was that bad guy that grabbed the two guns. He was a well-known Canadian actor did a lot of films, but always remembered for being in police Academy.

Bachelor Party with Tom Hanks really pushes the envelope

Bubba Smith (Hightower) played Defensive End in the NFL. He was the 1st pick overall in the 1967 NFL draft, and selected by the Baltimore Colts. He played in two Super Bowls (III & V), winning Super Bowl V. He was also a two time NFL Pro Bowler, and selected All-Pro twice. Smith also attended Michigan State. where he is a 2x All-American, and part of the 1965 National Championship team.

the scene with the failed papers throw out the window is probably the most underrated comedy moment I've ever seen this was a lot of fun, the sequels get even more chaotic and joke driven, but it's always a joy to see Michael Winslow at work

Man, they don’t make comedies like these nowadays!

The drill sergeant played in Mannequin too as a security guard. I love him. He later played a cop in The Closet and Major Crimes.

I can imagine Michael Winslow keeping everyone on set entertained.

You gotta watch all 7 now. They are all hilarious!

Tackleberry is my spirit animal. Dark side me if I went unhinged. 🤪

All the Police Academy movies were filmed in and around Toronto. I used to live not too far from The Blue Oyster Bar {actual name Silver Dollar Room} and when passing by there I would hum El Bimbo {the "theme" song when they enter}. Another raunchy comedy series worth checking out are the Porky's movies.

The Blue Oyster is iconic. I was about 10 years old when I watched this the first time. Everyone in my class watched it and man, the teacher must have been so tired of us, hearing us citing and mimic the characters all day long. Move it, move it, move it!

😂 always remember the golden rule: comedy is supposed to be uncomfortable. That’s where the humor comes from.

“Gap like SpongeBob and Michael Straham” was the funniest thing ever

I knew him best as Henry, punky Brewster's dad

I wish they had brought back Kim Cattrall for the sequel which was kind of disappointing. David Graf as Tackleberry just hilarious. I was sad when I heard he passed away back in 2001. I also remember when he played Brink's onscreen dad in the Disney channel original film Brink.

6 movies made it to theater 1 straight to VHS or DVD. A short lived tv show with guest appearances from the original cast, and a short lived cartoon with a toy line.

The "there was gunplay and he missed it" has long been one of my favorite bits from the movie. Unfortunately, no one ever gets the reference lol

Keep the 80’s classic comedies coming! Revenge of the Nerds, Caddyshac, Airplane, Ferris B’s Day Off, Stripes, Coming to America, Uncle Buck….so many to choose from!

40 years ago. This one along with Beverly Hills Cop. When unorthodox comedies about police were golden. P.A. had so many characters with so many personalities. Great direction and writing for it's genre. 12 of the people involved have passed away, some of them part of the franchise for most of the films. Director of the first installment, the late Hugh Wilson does a cameo (Angry Driver). 1+6 sequels within a decade and the first installment was the highest-grossing. Among the first adult-oriented franchises to be dumbed down and marketed to kids as an animated series (1988-1989) with tie-in comics and video games. Also a short-lived series continuation (1997-1998) of the films with some castmembers reprising their roles. All of them are good with their own craziness. Go ahead and watch 'em all.

What's your favorite COP COMEDY?!?

I've always had a crush on Leslie Easterbrook (Callahan). That's a mountain ⛰️ I'd climb.

David Graf as Tackleberry is hilarious. He gets his moment to shine in later movies, he was really under-utilised in this one. Fun fact: Scott Thomson ‘grew up’ and played Preacher in Twister. I’d never seen him in anything else and barely recognised him in Twister - it wasn’t until Greg and Roxy reacted to it that I looked up all the cast and realised where I knew him from 😂 some of the biggest stars of the 80’s and 90’s were in this. I own all of these on DVD, they were a huge part of my childhood because my dad loves them. But they get steadily worse after 4.

22:04 iconic scene that awaken many 8 to 10 year olds boys.

Never clicked so fast in my life. Absolutely love this movie😂

now try to imagine after watching this movie that someone went "hey, this would make a great saturday morning kids cartoon!" and yes, the police academy cartoon was indeed a thing. I have never understood why the 80s had a thing for making R-rated movies into kids cartoons, but they did make for some weirdly fun shows.

@26:25-26:46 That scene is so simplistic, and yet gets most reactors and myself. You guys should keep that laughter and put it in a compilation of all the times you both got got with a funny bit.

Man these movies remind me of being a kid so much. They were on tv literally all the time in the 90’s. They all just blend together. This one was on just the other day.

2:15 Under Warner Bros., The Ladd Company distributed Chariots of Fire, which won the 1981 Academy Award for Best Picture. Among the films it produced were the Space Race epic The Right Stuff, the space western Outland, Ridley Scott's science-fiction cult film Blade Runner, neo-noir film Body Heat, and the first two Police Academy movies. During a brief partnership with Paramount Pictures in the mid-1990s, the company produced The Brady Bunch Movie and the Best Picture Oscar winner Braveheart. Ladd's later releases are the 2005 Lasse Hallström drama, An Unfinished Life, and the 2007 Ben Affleck drama Gone Baby Gone, both distributed by Miramax Films

You did a Bobby hill reference from King of the Hill I love it.

Police Academy, the absolute height of the 80s comedy

G.W. Bailey played Harris. He played a very similar role in Mannequin, which also had Kim Catrall in it. He had that character ready to pull out of his pocket at any time.

39:11 he didn't lie he didn't tell a soul. He told several souls

Hancock is the movie he referenced at 39:00 😂

One of the greatest comedies ever! Came out in 1984. A golden year in cinema. My sister and I watched this whole series growing up. I don't even think we got half the jokes. The cast travels throughout the series but some leave and then come back. GW Bailey recently starred on drama series The Closer and Major Crimes as Lt. Provenza. He was amazing and honestly deserved an Emmy for it. We use so many references from this movie. If one of us misses out on something, we say we feel like Tackleberry. Or if we are trying to find a parking space, my sister will say she wishes she can Mahoney it. Also confession... I saw this again a couple of years ago and just realized what the lady was doing in the podium. I guess when I first saw it on VHS I was just a kid like 8 and thought they were just hiding. Then I guess on TV they may have it edited it differently.. You see something new every time. The sequels have their moments but I don't think any top this.

Any time john is reacting its always a good time!

Guttenberg was in 3 men and a baby with Sellick and Ted Danson. He was Cocoon 1 and 2 which are great movies.

Tackleberry didn't duck because he knew that Barbera hadn't re-racked the shotgun. Thus, the shell in the chamber was spent. Also, yes, Michael Winslow (Jones) is the radar operator in Spaceballs. He was doing special effects as a stand-up routine and got approached to be in the movie. The character of Jones was written specifically for him. Actually, it's established in the sequels that the Lassard is just a horrible driver. Also, he's not quite as clueless as he pretends to be. The actress who played Hooks has said that she based her performance on Michael Jackson. The Unnamed Antagonist that takes the guns (Credited in the third movie as "Axe Murderer", and is the leader of a gang, which includes the character's mother, and is again caught by Hooks) is played by Doug Lennox.

I fell in love with Michael Winslow after I saw this movie - I was just a kid, maybe around 10 when I eventually saw it in the late 80s.

8:15 - "She should join the force!" Weeeelll...

I am convinced 90% of reaction videos are “what did Gen X love growing up?” 😅

Police academy afternoons with my dad were pivotal formative moments of my life and personality traits!! 🤣. It holds the most special place in my heart

4:57 That's old boy the detective in T2 that warned Sarah Connor about the Terminator returning. With a wig.

Meanwhile in reality, we'd all be blessed if our militaristic pigs in costumes were half as trained as this movie portrayed

Who remembers the animated series?

6:10 The human sound machine the legendary Michael Winslow (Larvele Jones)

I use "That's my purse! I don't know you!" regularly. Glad I'm not the only one.

Bubba Smith was a DL in the NFL in late 60’s or 70’s.

George Gaines was also in Tootsie starring Dustin Hoffman, Geena Davis and Bill Murray.

The actor playing the Main Bad Guy also played the Bartender that kicked Logan out of the Bar. in the first X-Men movie.

Love seeing Toronto in the early 80s - it was so clean

I’m 23 but grew up with these movies cuz of my dad. And now I can’t wait to watch y’all 2 together bcuz y’all crack me up. Feel like I haven’t seen an Aaron reaction in a while ❤❤

The M*A*S*H shirt... awesome.

We used get kick ass military commercials Saturday morning with our cartoons and weekdays during GI Joe. The Marines and Army had by far the best commercials

Police Academy is a timeless classic. EVERY MOVIE IS OF ITS TIME

After 40 years, I just realizes, when Mahoney starts calling out the Pope and the President before his 'speech' Lasard starts looking around for them! Love his character! Thanks for viewing this, best one yet!

I hope you'll watch them all. They are crazy, but their forged friendships and respect are brilliant as the series goes on. Harris is such a brilliant antagonist.

Wow- you immediately made the connection to the Hot Fuzz jumping-the-fence scene, that Edgar Wright has admitted was what he wanted to recreate when making the movie.

38:57 Hancock The big guy is Bubba Smith. He was a phenom in college and probably would have been in the pros but the NFL blew out his knee. He is the reason we have two people who hold the chains and drop them whenever players get close to the sidelines. Prior to that, the were stacked into the ground. Long story short, Smith, on a play along the sidelines, tripped and got tangled in the chains and tore up his knee. He was never the same....

Michael Winslow was once asked if he thought robin Williams did better voices than him, he said masters don't compete. Boom Mic drop

The Lt. is played by a wonderful character actor who has done so much work, but my favorite is an 80s Whoopi Goldberg movie called Burglar. Totally think you'll love it

30:34 see tackleberry knows his guns. He didn't duck because he knew the chamber wasn't loaded.

ah Michael Winslow, man of many sounds. I love him

John: "I'm just practicing for management, sir!" DUDE!!!

I'm gonna need you two to see The Last Starfighter

The 1st one they meet Zed in an his portrail of a police officer is comedy gold 😂

How the mayhem starts. 45:54

37:57 No, he didn't kill the cat. He shot towards the cat, not at the cat, to get it out of the tree

As a kid Tackleberry (David Graf) was always my favorite. Died way too early at age 51 by a heart attack. I have fond memories of this franchise. The 5th part is still a guilty pleasure of mine. But the 7th and last was just utterly bad (with Ron Perlman even...)

Thank you for watching these and glad you enjoyed. Memories for sure with this one popping in that VHS tape 😅

@3:34 -- one of the actors credited is "Georgina Spelvin." This is an old tradition: when an actor in a film doesn't want to claim the credit for a role, he/she will be listed in the credits as George/Georgina Spelvin.

Great Reaction John and Aaron! This movie is really funny! 👍

They can't get away with making a movie like this anymore. This was back when comedy was actually comedy. I love that Michael Winslow did all of his own sounds and got to show his talent. Great reaction! 🤙👍

Bubba Smith from the Chicago's Bears and of course their hit song The Superbowl Shuffle

Yes Hightower AKA Bubba Smith was a football player also starred in the TV abductation of Blue Thunder along with Dick Butkus and believe it was before this movie

Gotta love the perpetual millennial question, how did this age. By today's everyone is offended standards this irreverent comedy is racist, sexist and homophobic. By normal people standards it's "This movie don't give a fuck funny "

I used to love this movie franchise. I watched this movie a couple times. I know there's 7 movies. I've only watched 6 but never saw the 7th movie. The first movie I saw was the 4th one , Citizens on Patrol.

Fridge Brilliance: The scene at the range where Barbara swung the 12ga and everyone ducked except Tackleberry, the reason why he didn't duck was because after Barbara fired, he didn't rack the slide, which would eject the spent shell and load a new one. Because of his knowledge of firearms, Tackleberry knew he was perfectly safe.

Bubba Smith former Lions DL I believe. Hightower might be my favorite character in this movie
