I Watched Anchorman & COULDN'T STOP LAUGHING! ~ First Time Watching!

[@ByTorPhoto]

The mystery blooper was from Smokey and the Bandit. Another brilliant film.

[@wampa25]

It was actually Smokey and the Bandit 2.

[@ByTorPhoto]

@@wampa25 You mean Smokey and the Bandit Ride Again, with Sherriff Buford T. Justice. Yeah, I'd forgotten Sally Field was in that too. Silly, but still very funny film.

[@citizenbobx]

The Anchorman DVD has something like 45 minutes of footage with Burt Reynolds, who was actually going to be in this film. It was basically a whole other movie they had going, but then they decided to just cut him out of it.

[@timkinss]

​@@citizenbobx Travesty

[@danielgibson7948]

I think Burt Reynalds movies were the first to do credits bloopers, which explains the addition.

[@CygnusVoyager]

The scene with Baxter and the bear was supposed to have subtitles btw, they have a whole conversation about Baxter meeting the bears family in the woods lol. Not sure why this version of the movie didn’t include it, but I’ve seen that happen on another reaction video too

[@edwardsighamony]

It's because she's watching with captions on. That automatically puts on subtitles for only the spoken dialogue. I saw this in the theater and you get Baxter's speech.

I'm sure someone else has commented this, bit there is a whole separate version of the movie called "Wake Up, Ron Burgundy" which is compiled of cut content and plot points from the flick. Entire subplots and actors were left on the floor of the edit room, and while not as iconic as the final version of 'Anchorman,' it is well worth watching

[@tarontagosh1127]

With Halloween coming up, I've got to recommend both Killer Klowns from Outer Space and Ernest Scared Stupid. Also, there is a connection between the two movies. The effects for both killer Klowns from Outer Space and Ernest Scared Stupid were done by the Chiodo Brothers. The Chiodo Brothers are the guys who wrote, directed, and produced Killer Klowns from Outer Space, as well as doing the practical effects and makeup. So some of the effects from Killer Klowns were reused and repurposed for Ernest Scared Stupid. I think they'd make for a great reaction. They're both perfect mixes of spooks, laughs, and great creature effects.

I must petition for “Dr. Strangelove: Or how I learned to stop fearing and love the bomb”. Best comedy out there in my opinion. Peter Sellers killed in that film and Kubrick is a killer director (sometimes almost literally…) For another movie from the same creator as Anchor Man, “The Big Short” is funny AND informative.

[@frankknudsen8803]

One can love Anchorman and Dr. Strangelove simultaneously, but they are very different comedies. Miranda seems to like dumb comedies. Im not being condescending. I like dumb comedies too. But Dr. Strangelove is more satirical. Not like the "laugh out loud" modern style of comedy. Of course its just my 2 cents. Maybe she would love it

[@johnathanrhoades7751]

"You say you went Potty in your Pants?" was the ultimate come back to that lame pick-up line. From a similar premise, but with a small UHF broadcast TV station, you really deserve to watch Weird Al Yankovic's UHF (1989). Historical note - Mace Spray didn't become a commercially available product until the '80s. That was an old blooper from SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT (1977) with Burt Reynolds and Sally Field thrown in for giggles - Burt usually rolled the credits laced with bloopers in his comedy films.
