Another little known fact: Some of the surviving members of the original "Our Gang" shorts were upset because they weren't asked to make cameos in the movie

[@NellieKAdaba]

Sad. Love the original shorts.

[@JaredGriffiths2000]

Out of the cast of characters portrayed in the 1994 film the only ones who's original actors were still alive at the time the film came out were Butch, Woim, Waldo and Porky. Sadly the original actors for Spanky, Alfalfa, Stymie, Buckwheat and Darla had all passed away by the time the movie came out. The original Woim Sidney Kibrick is still alive to this day but those others I mentioned have all since passed away.

[@wonkotheclown]

I loved seeing the original little rascals when I was growing up they were hilarious 🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jonathansmith8672]

One of my favorite scenes from the film was when the clubhouse is on fire and Spanky tries to put the fire out with the water hose. But the water pressure is so strong, that, with Spanky sitting on it, lifts Spanky up into the air at a point where it looks like he's flying like Harry Potter or the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz!! That scene gets me every time!🤣🤣😂😂😆😆😅😅😆😂🤣🤣😂😆😅

[@drewdudy]

Remember buying this clam shell VHS tape for 20 bucks man I watch that thing so many times. I can still watch this movie and not be bored with it it's just fun to rewatch. Life is so different back then a VHS tape was all you need to have a good night.

[@MaCre-ds5cf]

I watched the 1994 film when I was growing up and I loved it.. I bought it for $5 buck at walmart and my 4 year old and 16 month old love it too they watch it over and over 🥰..

[@haveaniceday8834]

I still sing the song. I love it.

[@makeupwithrenzee4624]

I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH. And the last time I watched this was yesterday. All the scenes were great and very entertaining. My favorite characters were Uh Huh and Spanky. They're so cuteeeeeeeeee and lovely, like I want to pinch their little faces.

[@JaredGriffiths2000]

I would've loved to have seen George McFarland the original Spanky have a cameo in the movie. It's a shame he died before he started filming and many other original Our Gang members were dead by the time this movie came out. I hope they would've liked it if they lived to see it because I love both the original Little Rascals and the 1994 movie.

[@alfalfalittlerascalfan5022]

I created an original character about Bug Hall as a ballet dancer:D His name is Owen Swan and he is the son of Odette from Swan Lake:D It's just a shame that Travis and Bug Hall never got to learn ballet:(

[@alfalfalittlerascalfan5022]

@Olivia Walsh no

[@alfalfalittlerascalfan5022]

[@FionaFacciona]

Wow! Nice video, and the idea to divide the "timeline" in this video makes it even better. (Sorry, for my error, english is not my first language)

[@FunFactFilms]

Thank you Fiona👍

[@globoplay1712]

I am from Brazil, this film marked my childhood. I wanted to know where the film was made. Is there still a stretch where the cart race took place?

[@flossiegamingworld1543]

Nice facts!!!😁 I did not know the first fact

[@YummyCracker]

Another fact: The actor who played Alfalfa was arrested for inhaling an air duster.

[@talicecue]

wow that was my childhood crush what the hell was he thinking ?!!

[@dejahawkins6628]

@@talicecue he was being sexually abused during this film and prior to it by his own father surprised air duster and alcohol is all he did.

[@madhumitapaul3155]

One of my fav movie

[@a.KniteOwl]

Would love to see a fun facts for The Trial (1961) as I remember they had a number of odd details in that production, like Welles would randomly dub in his own voice over certain lines of other actors just to see if anyone would notice. also maybe SpiderMan: Into The Spider-Verse? there's a rich collection of material there, like how composer Pemberton used actual paint cans as percussions for some of Miles' songs. or maybe Logan Lucky? anything by Soderbergh is good fun fact material really, but I figured if anyone could uncover the identity of the writer Rebecca Blunt, it would be you lol

[@sillylilguymeow]

i love the song gotta dollar

[@islamay123]

Lol my grandma owns the old our gang on discs, it’s so good and cute

Anyone know how and where they filmed the scene of Alfalfa’s nightmare on the cliff? Ive always wondered that; that scene to me is very dark still for this movie well just imo.

[@dejahawkins6628]

You should listen to what the actor who played Alfalfa says went down behind the scenes... makes the whole movie feel scary

[@lexit.ramirez343]

If i was an actor from there that time traveld we could of had our first women president AND saved America

[@hellofuntime.7212]

No way Donald Trump was in the movie

[@toussaintf1]

Imagine 2020 Hollywood producers doing a politically correct version of the classic GONE WITH THE WIND? It would probably be a big bore. I am not suggesting that all the racism and sexism in the original LITTLE RASCALS was a good thing (it was not). But it is almost impossible to duplicate the Depression era 1930s ingredients that made the original OUR GANG a hit. This modern reboot is 80 minutes of tedium.

[@finnbadcopandblossombamboo764]

Łøł

[@marissabryan1833]

I just think it is funny that now Donald trump is our president

[@jessieswan1636]

I see Donald Trump on little rascal

[@IcyDudeYT]

the little rascals were a funny movie but I hate when that they had to make Bug Hall and Travis Tedford made them be goofy instead Bug Hall Is Dumb

[@JaredGriffiths2000]

Yes, he is dumb isn't he?

[@pkxdboyandrobloxboy7951]
