😕???

yes

Mark saved the day

There was no restaurant down stairs in that area of the mall. Next to KayBee was Foot Locker and next Kitts was Walden books. The only restaurants on the lower level of the mall were the Mexican next to hair salon and Target that caused the mall to go downhill due to the gangs associated with it. The Italian over by Sam Goody, and Ruby Tuesdays which was near the food court. Over By Sam Goody there was a small food court that had Burger King, Chinese, and something else, that food court was were that Italian restaurant was. That place was dark looking, I don't know of anyone who ever eat there.

@@SignalsOverTheAir yes there was certainly a restaurant downstairs next to the KITTS PIANO, their specialty were honey baked chicken and baked potatoes. This was in the early mid eighties, I remember me and my grandmother going there every time we went to Springfield. If we went to Tysons Corner it was a restaurant called 'The Hot Shop' but I cannot remember the name of that specific restaurant next to KITTS.

@@ShamasAhman I only know what was at the mall from the 90's till it closed in 2012. That restaurant was long gone by the time I started visiting it in 1990/1991.

Both Liv and Rene were at their best during the 90's and early 2000's.

@@SignalsOverTheAir agreed and their hottest. Renee fell off shortly after this film, Liv's hotness lasted until the LOTR movies.

Actually I just looked her up now, she is still pretty F'in hot and a year older than me.

@@Xanderfied Bridget Jones was good for Renee, but afterwards not so much though.

@@Xanderfied Liv takes after her dad, and he hasn't aged too much in the last 30 years.

A 3yo isn't going to be interested in this film, the teenagers however would more likely be interested instead.

Several others have asked about the table and chairs. From what I've been told by others and researched myself, ocean liners like the Poseidon had their dining tables and chairs usually anchored to the floor so that when the weather was rough they wouldn't slide around.

@@SignalsOverTheAir I've been on the Holland American Cruise back in summer of 2019, they don't bolt the chairs to floor in their dining rooms.

@@Perich29 Holland America is a cruise ship, whereas the Poseidon is an ocean liner. The difference between the two ships is that cruise ships are for entertainment and relaxing while ocean liners are older and there main purpose was that they were built for speed. Holland America is a modern ship and is designed to make sure tables and chairs wont usually slide around or fall over during rough weather.

Record stores were at their peak from the 80's through early 2000's. In the past I applied at a few local ones around me, but never go work in any of them though.

There's no song playing in this scene.

​@@SignalsOverTheAir I think he meant in general the movies music was good

@@JackBright8899 It's possible

@SignalsOverTheAir I was on a ship a few dayd ago and we were in a hurricane next to Texas and I guess a wave hit the side like a rouge wave hit the side and the ship tilted 40 degrees to its side i thought we weren't gonna make it but the ship righted itself but we had a 5 degree list to it's side

@@JackBright8899 Capsizing is very possible today if a ship is tilted to a certain degree. Within the last decade, a lot of cruise ships have come very close to capsizing; the most recent was the cruise ship, Viking Sky in 2019 when it suffered engine failure of Norway and was tossed around by large waves.

It's a underrated classic

Nobody died during the making of this film.

Brace for impact

The recipe calls for Orange Juice, but I can't drink it as it tears up my in-sides pretty badly.

@@SignalsOverTheAir I understand that, what about using orange zest to give it that extra orange flavor? I'd try that

@@vanessatrinidad7745 Give it a try and see how it turns out.

Which movie theater did you see it in? Which level was Audio Associates located on? Love the Tenchi profile pic, it's one of favorite Anime's.

@@SignalsOverTheAir I don't remember what the theater chain name was. They played those silly Spring Mall Dodge commercials before the movies. "Spring Mallability, that's dependability, that's what you get from Spring Mall Dodge!" I think Audio Associates was on the ground level in an angle front location. They had a big table out front showing off the top of the line turntables of the day.

@@participantparticipant506 Which theater in the mall, the one across from Bennigan's or the one above the food court? I don't remember a store with turntables, was that store there in the 90's?

@@SignalsOverTheAir Mid 1970's. There was only a single theater and Audio Associates may have gone out of business by then or bought out.

@@participantparticipant506 I don't know much about the mall prior to the 90's when I started going.

Bye, bye Ernest

Fun, hope none of you got tangled up though.

I'm glad that you enjoyed this video trip down memory lane. The original Springfield Mall is and will always be the best version of the mall.

I don't have any photos, mostly everything featured in this video I found online from Google images and a few personal photos as well.

Where was Lums located back then?

Can't really remember, it had one of the small spots on the side, maybe top floor? I was there when it closed, (Lums that is) @@SignalsOverTheAir

@@user-ks1dm4zi3fI've never heard of that place, what type of restaurant was it?

Cheap food, burgers, beer, etc, kind of like Dennys. had a bunch of restaurants around NOVA (Ballston/Alexandria/Tysons Corners etc) but slowly went bust , they tried turning some into Summers *bar / grill type) but that failed too. Fun place to work@@SignalsOverTheAir

You got to experience the mall in it's final years as a kid. I've never heard of Jeepers, what floor was that located on?

Springfest was a real, so many places to chose to eat. That food court had just about every cuisine you could imagine.

A&W is where I had my first ever corndog. The mall had so much to see and do back in the 90's, glad you enjoyed the video trip down memory lane.

In English??

A modern cruise ship today is very unlikely to capsize and even if it did, it would only be briefly and the ship would turn right side up again. The damage done by capsizing today would still be about the same as it is in the movie, maybe just a bit worse though.

Queen of Apostles?

The original Springfield Mall was the best back in the 90's and throughout the 2000's. It's possible we did.

@@SignalsOverTheAir I went to Edison High school and I think we had a class together lol

@@rashadjones776 The name doesn't sound familiar, but it's possible we may have been in some classes together though.

@@SignalsOverTheAir Did you have a academy class for culinary arts? The teacher was Chef Ale I think. But either way I recognize your face and voice. That's why I said that

@@rashadjones776 I never took a cooking class at Edison. If you recognize my voice then it could be from a class we may have been in together or possibly from people we knew that hung out together a lot.

And that was a long time ago.

The guy doing a somersault?

I'm glad that you enjoyed this video, it almost didn't get made though. I say in the video that I did get caught by a security guard who wanted my camera.

What year was that as I don't remember any RC boats.

@@SignalsOverTheAir Possibly 82-85? It was far back on the left. There was a small pool with around 10 - 12 boats and the controls were faux boat helms. If memory serves a quarter bought you 5 minutes maybe?

​@@DikLazer That sounds a bit familiar as I kind of remember a place that had ship steering wheels that drove boats around and into other boats.

It wasn't intentional, this and all the other clips I uploaded from this film were all part of a project I was working on back in high school in 2006.

Good 90's Alternative

Interesting choice of viewing to be watching as a kid.

It's one of the many memorable lines from the film.

Who wouldn't want to work with Renée Zellweger back then.

Was that said in the movie? If so I don't remember it.

The film had 8 nominations, not 9. Yes, Shelley should have and Ernest Borgnine should have been nominated for Best Supporting Actor as well. If The Godfather hadn't come out the same year as Poseidon it probably had a better chance at winning Best Picture.

@@SignalsOverTheAir Wait a minute. Best Supporting Actress for Shelley Winters. Best Art Direction / Set Decoration. Best Costume Design. Best Sound. Best Film Editing Best Dramatic Score. Best Cinematography. THAT WOULD BE 7 NOMINATIONS. Add the two wins for Best Original Song and Best Special Visual Effects. 7 + 2 = 9 NOMINATIONS.

@@chazarcola7639 Best Visual Effects was an Special Achievement award that was given to the film, it wasn't nominated for it.

@@SignalsOverTheAir O.K. then. So it's 9 categories, 8 nominations and 2 wins ??? Doesn't a movie have to be first nominated before it can finally win, even for a special award ?? Anyway, I consider Ernest Borgnine as a co-lead actor with Gene Hackman. Red Buttons and Jack Albertson are my deserving candidates in the Best Supporting Actor race while Stella Stevens should have been nominated with Shelley Winters in the Best Supporting Actress category.

@@chazarcola7639 The Special Achievement Award was created just for The Poseidon Adventure because of it's visual effects. This award isn't given out every year and it's not just for effects, it's been awarded for sound effects editing, animation director for Who Framed Roger Rabbit (1998), Toy Story (1995) for being the first computer animated film, and in 2017 for VR (Virtual Reality) for a short called Flesh And Sand, it was the first special achievement award given out since Toy Story. Gene was running the whole show, as he came up with the plan of escaping, Ernest was a reluctant partner to Gene which would make him a supporting character. Red Buttons and Jack Albertson are good the film, but not worthy of being nominated for Best Supporting Actor in my opinion. Jack should have been nominated for his role as Grandpa Joe in Willy Wonka. Stella's Linda is certainly memorable, but not enough for a Best Actress nomination though, yelling at Ernest for the entire film isn't going to get you the nomination where as Shelley's underwater rescue is how she earned it instead.

Gene Hackman and Stella Stevens didn't roll over the table, their stunt stand-in's did, as you don't see her face as they roll over and the guy's face you briefly do see isn't Gene's. Rolling over a table seems pretty easy to do, but I guess even back then something the actors could easily do themselves was better suited for the stand-in's to do instead just incase something went wrong they got injured.

I loved those corndog nuggets as a kid, the mall was first place I tried them and became hooked on them.

Vic and the guys have good taste in music and want to share it with their fans.

Never heard of Sam's, Auntie Anne's must of replaced it by the time I was going there in the early 90's.

Yeah..was there for a while in the mid 1970s. My friend worked there. It wasn't there that long.

You're welcome

It's a 90's classic

?? 😕

Springfield mall used to have ashtrays in the halls of the mall. It was a smoker friendly mall until the early to mid 90s.

@@octavioa1 I don't remember people smoking in the mall, if they did I was either too young to remember or never paid attention to what others where doing.

@@SignalsOverTheAir it was during the same time when most restaurants had a smoking section.

@@octavioa1 I remember the smoking sections, I just don't remember seeing anyone ever smoking inside the mall itself; outside I saw it all the time.

Stunt piano

@@SignalsOverTheAir its so cool

@@llamaplayz2909 It wouldn't be if that fell on you though.

@@SignalsOverTheAir no i mean when the piano fell that was cool

@@llamaplayz2909 I know, but it wouldn't be cool in real life though.

She did the underwater rescue of Gene Hackman, but not anything in the capsizing scene, none of the main actors did anything in the famous scene; stunt men and women did it all. If re-watch you'll see that Stella Stevens and Gene Hackman are holding each other before rolling over the table, but right as they roll they've been replaced by look like stunt actors.

Joe's most likely liked by everyone in the neighborhood, so he probably got off with a warning or nothing as most likely the cops showed up to the show and partied as well.

@@SignalsOverTheAir Most likely absolutely not. Cops and liquor inspectors don't let you throw late night parties producing a shit ton of noise on short notice with no permit all whilst serving alcohol to minors to raise revenue on which he most certainly will not pay tax on. I don't care how well liked you are in the neighborhood.

@@CrazyMunky84 None of the other neighbors and business looked to be complaining at all, the beer kegs probably came from the a local bar down the street.

@@SignalsOverTheAir You can order several kegs of beer from a local bar down the street on short notice? That's not how liquor sales work. My scenario of Joe getting fined (and probably the so called local bar down the street that is not authorized to resale alcohol in bulk to other sources given your scenario also facing severe consequences) is much more realistic.

@@CrazyMunky84 It's just a movie dude, chill. In reality the events of the film couldn't possible happen in just under 24 hours. The original script had the film taking place over almost a week, but was then combined to just one day in the final cut.

Joe was a good manager and friend so he knew she was just having fun.

We r all Joe's employees

Executive order that bullshit for the CBO office that can't Accounting themselves out of their a$$
