John Travolta is actually a licensed pilot who used to own a 707 airliner and flew all over the world. He also is qualified on several types of airliners and has captained commercial flights. His home is this wonderful place in Florida called Jumbolair which is built on a runway and is a housing development for Aviation enthusiasts and aircraft owners. They can literally park their planes in their garage. Travolta's house is the largest and is set up like an airport terminal complete with tower and ramps like jetways for his 707. He donated the 707 to a museum recently for Quantas, the Australian airline who used to own the plane. He still flies his Gulfstream though. Not very many people are familiar with this part of Travolta's life. He used to sweep hangars to pay for lessons and used his pay from his first TV show, "Welcome Back Kotter" to finish them. He's had a lifelong love of airplanes.

You guys build your dreams on the heads of thousands and thousands of dead people.. killed by your colonization of land that doesn't belong to you. Travolta being a pilot means absolutely nothing in the long run, he didn't even try to save his son from physical problems although it DOES seem to impress YOU.

RIP Kirsty Alley. She was also Lt. Saavik in Star Trek II The Wrath Of Khan. She was going to reprise the role in Star Trek III but got pregnant and had to drop out. Robin Curtis played Saavik in Star Trek III and IV. Alley was also in the hit sitcom CHEERS which ran from 1982-1993.

[@KRAFTWERK2K6]

Yeah both played that role amazingly. Different yes but still amazingly great. Kirstie's Saavik really felt a lot more inexperienced and Robin's Saavik felt more matured, which after the events of ST2 makes sense. And we almost would have seen Saavik in Star Trek VI too but Roddenberry was absolutely against the changes about the character. Which is why the new character of Valeris was created.

[@Rmlohner]

Quite a few people from this movie are gone now. George Segal, Olympia Dukakis, Abe Vigoda...

Kirstie was so infatuated with Leonard Nimoy that she sent him a photo of herself wearing nothing but Saavik's ears.

They actually wanted her to reprise that role for ST6, but by then she was on "Cheers" and they said she wanted too much money. So, they created the Kim Catrell character.

[@turntsnaco824]

Because it took you until you were an adult to even notice the mature content in it. I also watched this a lot as a kid because my mom loved it, and simply didn't understand all of the adult context of the film. I just thought it was funny when the babies were talking. 🤷 I thought that was the ENTIRE point of the movie. It's amazing what goes over kids' heads. That's one thing that made the older Simpsons episodes so great, they're full of incredibly clever and sneaky mature jokes that kids and even some adults wouldn't understand because of the amount of thought that goes into them.

People say that Pulp Fiction brought Travolta back into pop culture but they forget about this movie. This was the role that really got people talking about him after he had been long forgotten.

[@andysalter7192]

Honestly in the industry him doing this movie was seen as ' oh my god look at what he is doing now ! " , It actually hurt his career more then anything. Tarantino totally gave John a new life.

[@cchavezjr7]

@@andysalter7192 Were you even alive and able to sere it in the movies? I'm really curious. At the time, Travolta was nowhere to be seen. He was completely out of the public mindset as an actor. This was his first large market movie and it got everyone talking again. He had done a few smaller films which got his foot in the door but after this role, he was back on the celebrity train again. He was on the talk shows, news highlights and other places. I would even venture to guess that Tarantino might not have even had his mind on Travolta if he hadn't done this movie as he was forgotten until then. Once Pulp Fiction came out,. he was a permanent A-Lister for many years but Look Who's Talking was a large success for Travolta. I was 16 at the time and his name was everywhere after that.

Kirstie Alley played Saavik in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. What's curious is that Saavik is half-Vulcan, Vulcan's are famously known for suppressing their emotions, yet she cries during Spock's funeral. Saavik is also half-Romulan, which could explain her emotional reaction. Kirstie Alley was replaced in Star Trek III.

15:28 - That's kind of a double-reference. Dr. Benjamin Spock was a famous pediatrician who wrote many books, most famously "Baby and Child Care," which sold 50 million copies. But also, Kirstie Alley's big break in Hollywood was in the film "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan," where she played Lt. Saavik, the young half-Vulcan half-Romulan, and Spock was her mentor.

[@JDdiGriz]

I remember after this movie came out, I read a factoid slide about Look Who's Talking at the theater while I was waiting for another movie to start. It said that in the original cut of the movie, Mickey did not have a voice, he was a regular baby/toddler and the movie was a pretty boring romcom. The studio wasn't going to release it. Then one of the producers came up with the idea of having the babies talk. They hired Bruce Wilis, who was in a very popular comedy series called Moonlighting at the time to record the voice o f the kid in post production, and that's how this film gor a theatrical release.

[@roberthunter4884]

Before she was famous, Kirstie appeared as a handmaiden on an old sci-fi comedy series in 1978 called "Quark", she was uncredited. Then in 1979 she appeared on the gameshow Match Game as a contestant, she then appeared on another gameshow in 1980 as a contestant on Password Plus. In 1981 she starred in the easily forgotten film "One More Chance" before landing her breakout role in 1982's "Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan" as Lt. Saavik, a Vulcan. She appeared in several films and tv shows after that, the movies "Summer School" and "Blind Date" were funny and worth watching, and of course her time on the sitcom "Cheers".

When George Segal passed away last year I suggested several of his films. So this is both a Kirstie Alley and a George Segal memorial viewing. Other George Segal films you might consider: _The Hot Rock_ (1972) a heist comedy, also starring Robert Redford. _No Way to Treat a Lady_ (1968) a crime thriller, co-starring Lee Remick and the great Rod Steiger. _Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?_ (1966) adapted from Edward Albee's Tony-winning play, directed by Mike Nichols and co-starring Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor, and Sandi Dennis. A riveting drama, and perhaps Taylor's best work.

“It Takes Two” it another AMAZING movie! I also haven’t watched this movie in FOREVER!

[@brownstarslots]

Madhouse with Kirstie Alley and John Lauroquette (sp?) Is a fun film that I do enjoy watching when the opportunity arises. I don't think anyone has done a reaction to it as well

It Takes Two is a classic Kirsten Alley movie with Marry Kate and Ashley. It is super fun.

[@jddole7079]

Most of actings in that movie is so bad but story is ok

[@DesiSJ]

This was probably my 2nd favorite movie of hers

[@andysalter7192]

Classic?

[@newmoon766]

When my sister got married, she said she'd never have kids. Then, about ten years later she told me she changed her mind. I said, "You know a baby can't replace a cat." 🧷😉 Twenty years later, for a while she had two adolescent sons and 7 cats living in their home. (She volunteered at a shelter for many years.) Technically, 3 of the cats belonged to the kids. Give Beans a hug for me.

Back in the day I had a massive crush on Kirstie alley it's so very sad to hear of this beautiful and talented actress passing away recently.

I remember seeing this with my late mum at the cinema when I was 11. One of the few movies she actually liked at the cinema. Not seen this for many years. Thanks for the memories.

[@beastialmoon2327]

I tried to watch this as a kid because I saw "haha baby talking" as a trailer and then found the vhs later in my parenr's room. The opening scene weirded me out, mostly because it was my first intro to ANYTHING sex ed related. Like, I wasn't even aware of the concept. I don't think I'd ever seen it beyond that point before today 😘

[@stevemorganexperience7833]

Every movie scene in the eighties had a mad car scene, lol😂

[@Adam_Le-Roi_Davis.]

Another great reaction, Ashleigh. It's a pity that 'Drop Dead Gorgeous' didn't win the poll as it's a far better film in my opinion. A bit of trivia, the song that you commented on and said that you liked is from a film called 'Saturday Night Fever' which starred John Travolta.

[@wpgreeley]

This is the one movie I was talked into seeing at the theater that I walked out and asked for my money back.

[@ThisIsMyFullName]

Having your own kid is not as gross as watching everyone else's kids. It's kinda like when you watch someone take their dog for a walk and they pick up the dog poop, it looks really disgusting. But if you take your own dog for a walk you don't really think about it. Having your own kid is kinda the same way, it becomes less gross because it's your own kid.

[@christiantidball6121]

My first exposure to Kirstie Alley was Star Trek II. My Grandpa was a huge Star Trek fan. When my mom was going to nursing school I would spend after school days with my grandparents and there was always Star Trek or a Western on the TV. The next time I saw her was Cheers in 1987.

[@oldbroadwithbaggage5472]

Fun watching you watch this movie. I really loved it when it came out, but I don't think it ages very well. Glad you did it anyway. Loved your facial reactions at certain parts. I hope Drop Dead Gorgeous makes it in another poll. You rock, as always!

[@douglasthomashayden2566]

25:10 -ish dunno about *you*, Ashleigh, but *I* was immaculately conceived! LOL

[@scottmcintyre2809]

Look Who's Talking Too (yes, that's how they spelled it for the sequel) did still focus on the babies, with the return to the Falopian tubes for this movie's credits foreshadowing the introduction of Mikey's little sister, voiced over by Roseanne Barr. However the second sequel, Look Who's Talking Now, changed the voiced over character to the family's new dogs, voiced by Danny Devito and Diane Keaton. As to getting Bruce Willis to do this, when they made this it was very much in Willis' wheelhouse. He was a comedian until Die Hard made him an action star, and this would have been filmed before Die Hard came out.

[@randallshuck2976]

Good reaction. If you are enthused there are several "Guess Who's Talking" sequels. All of them are okay and a good way to skip an hour or so on a rainy or snow afternoon. Another one of hers that I am partial to is "Sibling Rivalry". I think it is very funny and she is still gorgeous. Thanks for watching, as usual.

[@chloej3113]

Shoot to Kill, fantastic thriller with Kirstie, along with the amazing Sidney Poitier and Tom Berenger.

[@ungroovygaming1213]

I love how she has no idea this is exactly where the talking baby trope came from

[@gucky15]

Drop Dead Gorgeous! You must! One of my all time favs

[@Clownboy15]

I mentioned this before in the Steel Magnolias video, but my fiancée had told me she was told by her doctor not to have kids. This was because she was in the same boat as Julia Roberts’ character. A couple of weeks later my niece graduated high school so we had a big party for her. Friends, family, kids, everyone was there. And me, being a professional clown, had to run around and entertain the kids. Erin said I reminded her of John Travolta from this movie. Said she’d see me playing with the kids, saw what kind of a dad I could be and could just feel her ovaries screaming 😂

[@Nick-ck5mk]

Gotta watch the second one dawg

[@empmaximus1]

Did anyone tell her she needed to watch that end sequence with the egg and fallopians that were grossing her out. BIG EASTER EGG.

After seeing her reaction to the Bee Gees, does anyone else think we need to get her to watch "Saturday Night Fever?"

[@curtismartin2866]

Great film, but not the light hearted, feel good film people "remember". The horrified reaction from those sweet kids over at The Rob Squad is certainly difficult to watch. They thought it was a musical. Great movie, though. I hope it makes it in the Channel someday..

[@MsLindaluu]

We had this on VHS when I was a little kid and watching this I'm catching a lot of stuff that went over my head when I was younger. 😂

[@gerstelb]

11:57 Russ Meyer was a filmmaker who specialized in openly trashy films with a lot of, well, as you said, tig ol’ biddies. 15:33 Dr. Benjamin Spock was a pediatrician who wrote a book called “The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care” which pretty much became a Bible for new parents. 20:12 This is probably an inside joke. First shot of the movie “Saturday Night Fever,” which made John Travolta a big star, featured him walking down a street in New York with this song in the background. 27:20 As I remember, this movie did have a post-credits scene; you should go back and see it. This movie spawned at least two sequels - don’t see them.

[@joegoss30]

The Russ Meyer reference is a bit "inside Hollywood." I was an adult when I saw this film & I probably didn't know who he was (that came later). And we didn't have the internet for reference way back then.

[@RandomNonsense1985]

Didn't Russ Meyer direct Beyond the Valley of the Dolls? ("It's my happening, and it really freaks me out!)

@@RandomNonsense1985 Yep…and it was written by Roger Ebert.

Kirstie Alley and John Travolta, I believe, both admitted they were very attracted to each other while making the movie, but they never acted on it.

Soooo I saw this when I was like 8 or 9 with my mom and as a result of the beginning my mom had to have the talk of exactly how and where babies come from with me since i had many questions about what the hell was happening. Not sure my mom ever forgave this movie for that

Wow - NOBODY has reacted to the Look Whose Talking series!!! GREAT CHOICE!!! ❤️❤️❤️ Hopefully you'll watch the other movies in this series too! Edit: Just made it to the end where you said you wouldn't watch the sequels. 😢😢😢 I understand. I'm child free as as well and feel the same way about kids (even though I love these movies and work with babies and toddlers for a living). At least someone on KZbin reacted to one of these movies though. See ya on the next review!

[@emessar]

I think what a lot of people don't get about Bruce Willis today is that he actually started on the comedy / drama / mystery series Moonlighting. For years, that's what he was known for. He didn't become an "action" star until Die Hard came out. People actually thought it was weird at the time that they put this comedy guy into a movie as an action star.

[@michaelanderson7288]

Since his career is now over, I keep waiting for some young KZbinr to react to the whole series, and learn how his career began. Moonlighting was one of my favorite all-time shows.

Bruce Willis voicing the child reminded me he had a cartoon series in the late 90s/early 2000s called Bruno the Kid. He voiced the lead and also did the music, perhaps the less said about his singing the better

[@McPh1741]

Before our daughter was born, my wife signed us up for some parenting classes just to see what they were teaching. One of the things that was told to us was not to take advise from older family members to heart and research things for yourself. A lot of the things our parents and their parents did are very outdated and some are dangerous. Like, nobody uses powder anymore. You’re not supposed to have ANYTHING in the crib when they are sleeping because they can accidentally smother themselves. A lot of older moms smoke during pregnancy and around kids and will tell you it’s harmless ( lots of those in my family).all in all, half the stuff we already knew and the other half was dead wrong.

[@Dularr]

It's going to be very interesting to see how the future judges today's child care trends.

[@danielfrei3109]

The Song "Staying Alive" was an inside joke. It was the movie theme song for "Saturday Night Fever" which was the movie that made John Travolta a star.
