The idea that Disney turned a rated r comedy into a family film is freaking hilarious to me , It's pretty much the same thing that to happen to Kangaroo jack.

[@The_child-catcher]

Don't forget the live action Scooby Doo movies. The original premise for the first one was an American pie like, Scooby Doo parody.

[@gator9339]

I’m just going to assume there’s an R-rated cut of every Robin Williams movie

[@michaelstrong5383]

An R-rated version of Mrs. Doubtfire would be amazing to see.

[@mightyfilm]

Ever see the Robin Williams and Elmo outtake? He makes an adult-ish joke about Madonna and lingerie out of habit and then walks it back saying something to the extent of "no this is a kid's show." No doubt there's accidental R-rated cuts. The dude even tried to sneak Elmer Fudd into Disney's Aladdin.

[@StefanTravis]

"One Hour Photo"... recut as a screwball comedy.

[@zl7321]

Fun fact: Robin improvised so much material in Mrs. Doubtfire that there was enough footage to release a G, PG, R, and even a NC-17 rated cut of the movie.

[@michaelbiscay9836]

In my mind, this and Wild Hogs have always just melded together into one movie, basically a Mandela effect. This video honestly blew my mind when I realized they were two separate movies.

[@CERTAIND00M]

Did you call it "Old Hogs" or "Wild Dogs"?

[@OSW]

3:40 Wow, imagine failing so hard you cancel an unrelated film! great vid

[@CrackzTV]

Weird crossover!

[@LarsonFilms2]

The failure of "Little Nicky" was the reason why New Line Cinema canceled their plans for a "Nightmare on Elm Street" prequel.

[@copeland411]

Based on the trailers, it felt like Disney knew this film would fail. The majority of the trailers consisted of the camp scene and the gorilla scene, which amount to 5% of the entire film. When we saw it in theatres, we were shocked in the brevity of those scenes and realized that Disney marketing milked what they felt were the funniest parts of the film, as short as they were. In a way, it was a wise decision because the drab interiors, golf club scene, and restaurant settings make zero sense outside of their context and do not look appealing. They definitely struggled to convey the film's premise through its marketing, and leaving the child actors out of most of the marketing of a children's movie is rather telling.

I'm no mental health expert and I certainly didn't know the man personally, but I kind of saw it coming in a way. may he rest in peace.

[@ferociousgumby]

@@sunsetman22 They say all the greatest clowns had broken hearts. Seems to be true that the people who make us laugh often have painful lives. Jonathan Winters and John Candy come to mind, and then there are the John Belushi/Chris Farley wild and crazy type who one day just self-destruct. Robin Williams was almost wasted in comedy - his dramatic performances were low-key but superb (Goodwill Hunting, Dead Poets Society, and especially Awakenings - Oliver Sacks was on the set during filming and was astonished at the way Williams replicated his character.)

[@BoyNamedSue4]

My guess. It was originally shot to be PG13. Had one joke that made it R because the MPAA is weird. Then when trimming they decided to go all the way to PG

[@calipurnioelreydelodio7141]

It's possible. I mean, "Clerks" was originally classified as NC-17! CLERKS! A film where there isn't gore or explicit nudity!

[@tarantinoish]

@@calipurnioelreydelodio7141 I hate to ask, but what does this have to do with BoyNamedSue’s original comment? Yes, the MPAA hands out NC-17 ratings for language. They did that with South Park as well. Now what does that have to do with Disney deciding to take a mild ‘R’ and saying, “okay, let’s make it a family flick instead. PG. Let’s not even go PG-13. More parents will take their wee little ones to this as a PG movie only. And while we’re at it, change the name from Old Dads to, get this, wait for it, Old DOGS! Yep, uh huh. Dogs, rhymes with that tool man’s Dogs movie or whatever. We boy, that’s a good one. While you’re at it, throw in an old dog too. That’ll be funny. Crack the kids up. Hehe, old DOG…….

[@TheModernPainter]

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. Disney doesn't mind PG-13.

The R rated Old Dogs cut thing sounds similar to what happened with the 2002 Scooby-Doo movie. James Gunn originally wrote a raunchy comedy similar to movies like Americam Pie, but WB changed course by the time production started. There's also rumors they used CGI to cover up cleavage, which may explain where the monster's effects budget went.

[@mightyfilm]

The problem being that Scooby-Doo was an active kid's franchise by that point. Even though there wasn't a cartoon since Pup Named Scooby-Doo, they were well into the DTV Scooby movies at that point, not to mention Cartoon Network rerunning the series. It's a shame that had to happen, but you can imagine a bunch of parents that refuse to do any research on movie ratings taking their 5 year olds to the movie and being appalled enough to write angry letters to the studio. I made the mistake of seeing the Yogi Bear live action movie (HB fan), and you would NOT believe the prudishness of the parents in that theater constantly talking about "family friendly" crap. They laughed at an unfunny "I Like Big Butts" joke in the movie, and they're totally the kind of Karens that would have called the song smut back in the day when used unironically.

[@SmoothCriminal12]

@@mightyfilm Yeah. I don't entirely fault the studio for steering it in a more family friendly direction considering the source material. It's still definitely a what if to consider.

[@mightyfilm]

Agreed. Had Scooby strictly been a Gen-Xer nostalgic franchise that wasn't touched since its heyday, an adult parody movie would have been considered okay. Like that crap Banana Splits DTV horror movie. But Scooby was, and still is, a cash cow franchise targeted to kids. I don't see WB granting a PG-13 movie that isn't super hero related to a kid friendly franchise. Of course, I once saw an Easy Reader type book version of The Dark Knight, so what constitutes as "family friendly" is all over the map.

Robin Williams is and has always a comedy legend.

[@TheVarietyVendor]

A much better way to go about things. Is have Robin Williams play super famous voice actor. Travolta a movie producer. And both men are childish bachelors. Who are into video games, comics and cartoons. With giant man caves. Robin finds out he's got kids. And they are extremely uptight and way too grown up. The dynamic being that the kids teach the men how to be more responsible. And the men give the kids a childhood. Which in a heartfelt scene, Robin can say that reason why he is the way he is. Is because, he is making up for everything he never had as a child. Flashback to his childhood where they couldn't afford toys for christmas. And he would imitate voices with stick figures. "Senior Kids".

I forgot this movie existed. Either way, good video. Since you've made videos on comedies that are almost cult classics or forgotten failures, have you ever thought about making videos on: Radioland Murders, Dracula: Dead and Loving It, Strange Magic (If you want to talk about animated films), and Wild Hogs? I bring those films up because: 1. They have a neat cast consisting of well-known actors and characters actors. 2. Have a neat premise/idea that had potential to be good. 3. It didn't do well at the box office and was panned by critics.

Great job, you almost never fail to get me bust out laughing watching a new video from you

[@matanberman]

When I clicked on this video I thought it was about wild hogs lol

[@legionofsnowbros7088]

I have not seen or never met a person who has actually seen Wild Hogs...

[@moviemoth4192]

I blame the critics for movies not being more successful. Discourage people from watching and making their own opinion.

Kangaroo Jack was originally r rated and drastically reshot. I need that cut of the movie.

Robin Williams, Bernie Mac and Kelly Preston? That would be a lot of real life tragedy overshadowing the comedy even if the film had been great.
