The Cinema Snob reviews The Amazing Mr. No Legs.

[@shawnconway6009]

how do you have a legitimate badass without legs and don't make it a vigilante revenge movie where a badass in a custom wheelchair with guns stops crime? Come on 1970's.

[@merrittanimation7721]

Shawn Conway By having an uncreative writer

[@TheRealNormanBates]

Well, there's always the remake.

[@kyletowers9662]

Quentin Tarantino tricked us all into thinking the 70s were more awesome than reality

[@goflyakitefilms]

I wanna remake this lol

[@chriskrausesmovie]

he used his brain

[@LuxasVTUBER]

Can't wait for the sequel, mr. no budget.

[@awesometomling]

THIS NEEDS TO BE MADE!!!! Hell I'll make it.... who has a spare film crew lying around in storage?

[@goufr3540]

There may be a film crew lying around some random green screens that involve a time machine that was found in a yard sale.

[@awesometomling]

Im in

[@patrickdix772]

What about the porno spoof, Mr. No Pants

[@genepool4783]

You mean the amazing mr. No budget?

[@Ukiby3000]

Ok, I admit that the line "You were never raised. You grew!" got a big chuckle out of me XD

[@sfighter0085]

I think I remember seeing footage of this movie either on here KZbin or on TV. Gotta give props to Ted Vollrath for his fighting skills, the fact he served in the Korean war, learned karate from his wheelchair, and earning a black belt is really inspiring. A shame that his character, who mind you was featured on the poster and top billed, gets killed towards the end of this movie. He really should've been the hero. Also the fact this was from the creators of the show "Flipper" really surprises me, how do you go from creating an old school kid's show to making a low budget exploitation movie about a gangster in a wheelchair who isn't even the main character? Talk about perplexing. Great episode.

[@anguishedcarpet]

I used to train in martial arts with a guy named cliff who was a skinny little old man and veteran with one arm. He would literally beat the fuck out of you WHILE USING THE STUMP

[@JGProductions6581]

The Car Chase was cool though.

[@danmount9462]

And now we wait for Turkish Mr. No Legs.

[@piplup2009]

Dan Mount the difference being he has shitty Roman candles in his legs

[@koenvandamme6901]

It better be titled Turkey Legs.

[@scitechian]

+Koen Van Damme That joke was godly.

[@Ratciclefan]

Koen Van Damme that joke was great.

[@nuzitu]

There is an episode for Turkish first blood already

[@dmysta30001]

Heard Brad's getting married this week. If so, congratulations man! I hope you and your wife will be very happy together!

[@scottieman2]

dmysta30001 Nukie is in the wedding.

[@TheMouseAvenger]

Mazel tov, Snob, & a blessing on your house! ^_^

[@mathunit1]

Wait, where did this news come from?

[@theactualTVB]

dmysta30001 Awww congrats to Brad Jones.

[@theactualTVB]

scottieman2 I know who else will come... Daniel Stern, Jason and Freddy, Tyler Perry, Michael Myers, Kirk Cameron, Tequila and Bonetti, the Oogieloves, the sexually aroused narrator from Fun in Balloon Land, etc

[@FlickorTreatProductions]

Where's Wheels and the Legman when you need them?

[@Haveba]

What about Mind Quad and Jimmy Boombox?

[@fowof]

Haveba all about mind quad!

[@aaronsiewert6009]

Ah, American Dad reference. Awesome.

[@alexmccaleb2152]

Flick or Treat Productions, J Dee Carter, Haveba, f1owo1f 91, Aaron Siewert you guysss... are my kinda people lolz

[@TheMouseAvenger]

Well, what a delightful morning surprise! ^_^ *(tunes in to watch)*

[@tneil.4292]

I want to hug your soul. :)

[@jesusnthedaisychain]

My aunt's brother had no legs and he had a black belt in karate, which I thought was a little unfair, seeing how he only had to learn half of the stuff that everybody else learned.

[@GigaWhitArtandStuff]

jesusnthedaisychain Dude I was taught Tae Kwon Do by a guy born with no legs. And I never gave it a second thought until way later

[@kgraves2269]

😂 That kills me!

[@kyletowers9662]

this needs more likes

[@nakenmil]

The joke. your legs.

[@ZillMob]

Your aunts brother... so your uncle?

[@ThatRandomEncounterGuy]

Is it weird how, after finally going back to 70's exploitation films after so long, I'm just like "Wait, why is Cinema Snob--oh, right; never mind."

[@erikios7292]

Right? It's like "did I go back in time?" Good to see he hasn't lost his touch

[@anjetto1]

Manchester black

[@i.m.evilhomer5084]

I didn't know they made a Mr. Plinkett origin film and a prequel to Space Cop.

[@DistractedGlobeGuy]

I KNOW WHAT THAT IS!

[@Dannypuck]

John Holmes was the Amazing Mr. Third Leg.

[@lucag.lisickza425]

LMAO

[@MangetsuSAMURAI]

BELIEVE IT OR NOT I'M WALKING ON AIR, I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD FEEL SO FREE!

[@uthertheking]

According to the version of the VHS cover shown before the English one, one tagline is: "Don't get in his way, he'll flay you alive". That's just as devoid of a height pun as it sounds.

[@johnkirby8939]

I wept because I had no legs. Then I met a film that had no budget.

[@MrSomebodyStrange]

It's nice to finally know that my Hot Wheels collection wasn't lost to time. I found it in this film.

[@christopherhazell1856]

So... Neither the head trauma nor the fact that her boyfriend was shot in the chest did anything to tip the police off that there might be more to the story than "She ODed"?

[@falloutbos34]

This is 70's Florida cops. I think we're lucky they weren't shooting hitchhikers at the time.

[@graemesmith6721]

Nor the fact that the dope was shot into her arm after she was dead, meaning it wouldn't circulate through her body. Or the fact that dead flesh doesn't bruise, so there would be no marks around the injection site. I'm pretty sure that any competent medical examiner would realize immediately that the injection was post-mortem.

[@FrenchPaul1988]

I'm pretty sure they also assigned the victim's brother to the case... That bugs me, shouldn't Andy be kept away from the case instead ?

[@jonathansefcik473]

I remember trying to to watch this movie a long time ago and it was so boring I couldn't finish it. Sometimes you need a snob episode to get through things!

[@authorofantithesis8695]

I couldn't believe this when I saw this review! The only other time I saw anything about this movie was when I got a bootleg at a horror convention almost a decade ago.

[@TheMellowFilmmaker]

Honestly, it would be funny if we started a trend of naming films after the most memorable character in the film. Beach Party would be renamed Prof. Atwell. Diamonds are Forever would be renamed Bambi and Thumper. The Force Awakens would be renamed That One Stormtrooper That Yelled "Traitor" and Actually Kicked Ass.

[@Nickman826]

TheMellowFilmmaker I think Disney calls him TR8R now that they know how many people like him

[@gwendolynstata3775]

The Sloth That Works At The DMV. That Squirrel That Causes Natural Disasters Whenever He Tries To Store His Nut.

[@valeriawilliams6412]

TheMellowFilmmaker 1

[@pothatuu]

I'm pretty sure Diamonds Are Forever would be called "Mr. Wint and Mr. Kidd"

[@petemadrona2252]

[@dunes8817]

Her brother's reaction looked less tragedy distress and more intestinal distress.

[@TheWRYYYYYYY]

The Amazing Mr. No Legs is of course the reboot made a few years after the original.

[@rlyrlykoolkid2868]

TheWRYYYYYYY but what about Mr. No Legs homecoming?

[@merrittanimation7721]

Famicon 64 Which came after the terrible The Amazing Mr. No Legs 2

[@AlexaRobin21]

Into the No-Legs-Verse.

[@ethanmelton576]

It's nice to see an episode that would have fit in with what Brad was doing 8 years ago. Ah, the memories.

[@10191927]

Mr. No Legs is a fucking badass, holy shit, he’s awesome!

[@DasKame]

No No No: He has'nt a Moustache! WORST 70's HERO EVER!

[@ZS05]

Best supporting actress: Call Center Girl

[@DasKame]

WHY IS'NT THE MOVIE NAMED AFTER HER????

[@schtive81]

The trailer for this movie is better than the movie itself. But still, a disabled hit man in a wheelchair with dual shotguns is pretty awesome.

[@thenightrider2121]

schtive81 it could be Rolling Thunder but instead of a hook hand, it's a dual shotgun wheelchair. I want that movie now.

[@aarondavis8943]

He has to swivel the whole chair just to aim. A pair of handguns would have worked better. In the time it takes to get his shotguns out, you could push him down subway stairs. It's as if the the filmmakers didn't even care about realism.

[@roringusanda2837]

@@thenightrider2121 how have we still not seen this??

[@rangeroftheeast9716]

Congratulations on the marriage Brad!

[@TommyDeonauthsArchives]

I wake up this morning and find a Cinema Snob Review uploaded today! Oh Brad, you spoil us!

[@ndm13]

He's been keeping that videotape in his jacket for the better part of a decade to make that point.

The best KZbin channel right here

[@Arrowdodger]

I've wanted to see this since you mentioned it in I thiiink the Midnight Screening of Me Before You

[@Shamandigi62091]

mr no legs the lost batman villain

[@jasonjimerson7046]

I am still waiting for Johnny Charo's comeback, dang it!

[@talesfromthenuzlocke1619]

Jason Jimerson He is still lurking under the dorm bed in Another Son of Sam

[@davidreeder43]

You know, with the wedding and everything, we would have understood if you didn't want to do an episode this week.

[@harmonyjones8035]

David Reeder It's not a live stream. He probably made it weeks ago.

[@charlottecorday8494]

Had to watch this again after Red Letter Media just watched it. It's always so fascinating when different people watch movies like this how they get completely two different things out of it.

[@Tareltonlives]

If Flipper was called Mr. No Legs, I would TOTALLY watch it.

[@pinkdebugger]

This movie has Lloyd Bochner who also was in The Lonely Lady and Satan’s School For Girls that Snob reviewed. What a career.

[@gwendolynstata3775]

So I guess you could say that this movie is "Lloyd Approved."

[@paulnash9851]

Thanks Snob. Awesome as ever. Best wishes + good fortune to you, now and the future.

[@RavenPryde]

I was awaiting a reference to Crippled Masters and was not disappointed when one was said. Thank you Brad :)

[@nodesire9291]

I DEMAND a Flipper/Mr. No Legs crossover! Also, congrats Brad.

[@Ratciclefan]

This isn't a good movie, but damn is Mr. No Legs good in it. Also, is the thumbnail actually a folded paper or is that an effect made using an editing software?

[@Iamafishproductions]

"Mr. No Legs, you're a good drug dealer. But not good enough, because of your No Legs. So I'm partnerrring you up with Mr. Regular Legs."

[@agentleman4610]

Congratulations on the wedding Brad! My best wishes to you and yours. :)

[@xservox]

I ripped my shirt and lost my voice screaming at the end of this masterpiece. This is one of my favorite B movies

[@ferzum7290]

Maybe in the future we will se mr. no tail with flipper as the lead actor

[@johnclavis]

Fer Zum dammit, you beat me to the joke. I was going to say that "The Amazing Mr. No Legs" was the original name for the Flipper show.

[@ferzum7290]

Party Bot the greatest minds think alike

[@TemmiePlays]

That was called "Free Willy" tyvm...

[@wolfie766]

Starring Wheels, and the Legman

[@squees7215]

Yeees, for years I've been hoping you would do this one!

[@mrbraindead12]

Huh, as a young boy I was a big fan of Flipper the dolphin, as they ran reruns on Nickelodeon for a few years. I just looked up Jack Cowden, and sadly he has passed away. But, what's crazy is that he died in the same little South Carolina town I grew up in. Well, not EXACTLY the same, but within 10-11 miles.

[@maugos]

Chuck then retired to California where he became a lifeguard and joined the Baywatch crew.

[@Superius777]

I don't know what I expected from a movie called Mr. No Legs but I'm not really surprised it ended up being 70's schlock. I can't understand a single god damn scene of this movie but man is it the fun kind of bad/weird. It definitely helps that the review makes the movie way funnier, thanks Snob

[@k2000kidd1]

I spit out half a taco when you made the Blanket Monster comment 😂😂😂

[@MST3Kfan1]

Interestingly, this movie had sort of a budget since it wrecked some cars. This was both a wild movie and a Wild review. Thanks again, Brad. A lot of fun.

[@august_astrom]

6:35 You really have to binge Cinema Snob to get these in-jokes! I feel like I possess esoteric knowledge just knowing that this was an "Another Son of Sam" reference!

[@jean-francoislabelle6489]

at 18:50 you had me cracking up like I didnt for awhile thanks

[@guyfawkes938]

You were on fire in this one, Brad!

[@betteryearentertainment4004]

Yeah, I recognize that this film was made on the cheap... but after watching this episode, I went and reminded myself that Massacre Video released it on Blu-ray a year and a half ago. I want one now.

[@JaycRam]

17:41 I actually was looking forward to watching Shot on Shitteo. Is a shame it'll never be released.

[@fantasmarojo3471]

I 100% agree with the name change of the movie. Mr No Legs was awesome

[@FrenchPaul1988]

That Mr. No Legs guy was kind of awesome. Kind of reminded me of the wheelchair-bound guy with no arms or legs in Turkish First Blood (BTW, could you repost this one on here ? Seems it can hardly be found on youtube).

[@ginnrollins211]

22:38 That car crash sound effect was used on Black Flag's Drinking and Driving.

[@SunnysFilms]

I'm no expert on kickback, but shouldn't Mr. No Legs's chair have slid backwards a bit every time he fired those shotguns?

[@graemesmith6721]

Nah, we've been conditioned by Hollywood to think that guns have enormous recoil, but they don't. The Mythbusters tested the myth that being hit by a bullet sends people flying backward. They hung a pig carcass from a metal frame so the hook holding it up was balanced on the very edge of the frame, so a little push would knock it down. Then they unloaded a variety of small arms into it. It never went flying backward. Newton's Third Law states that for every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction. Ergo, if being hit by a bullet knocks you back ten feet, the person firing it should also be knocked back ten feet. Since this doesn't happen, that myth is busted.

[@roringusanda2837]

🤔.........👩‍🦽💨 Maybe he had the brakes on? But I feel that then the kickback would have tipped him over 😦 😒.....hmm

[@DestroyerofKitten]

The Best badass in a wheelchair movie is by far FDR: American Badass He had rockets and a minigun

[@cheeseburgersuperior1874]

Aaron it's a saga. Needs a third one.

[@Llyander]

Obviously a big fan of the Blues Brothers with that final car chase, the random cutaways, etc. All it needed was someone going "They broke my watch!"

[@noahbossier1131]

The thing is this movie was released in 78, Blues Brothers was not even shot until 79.

[@tsarstepan]

"Crime doesn't have a leg to stand on[?]" You should have that chiseled onto your future tombstone Mr. Cinema Snob.

[@Canadamus_Prime]

That is one hell of an awesome wheelchair! No wonder Mr. No-Legs was the most marketable character, even if he's only a side character.

[@ksm13706]

"Someone come get their fucking parents!" DEAD xD

[@Kochiha]

So I looked up Joie Chitwood and the Danger Angels because I was bored, and it turns out they're a gaggle of stunt drivers best known for Joie Chitwood's Thrill Show, as featured in Smokey and the Bandit III, with the "Danger Angels" better known as the "Hell Riders". They were the main inspiration for Evel Kinevel to start doing daredevil work. Chitwood himself was a semi-regular in Hollywood and elsewhere as a stunt driver due to the Thrill Show's popularity, to the point that he was the stunt coordinator and one of the main drivers in Live and Let Die! And they apparently thought footage of his team's driving work would be best served with Call Center Girl. What in the actual.

[@LucianCorrvinus]

Was there just a cop car trying to jump a raised bridge? My Smokey and the Bandit senses were tingling....

[@lowenergyvideos4658]

Brad mentioned TJ (the Amazing Atheist) *fawns and chuckles with delight* My plan to get him onto DP is growing by the day...soon.....sooooooooooon!

[@royal9743]

The first thing I thought when I saw your pic was: "Did Egghead grew his beard out?" No offense.

[@lowenergyvideos4658]

None taken, though I now have the urge to go on peoples discords and start whining how no one gives me any money.

[@scitechian]

You want to double-penetrate the Amazing Atheist, what?

[@lowenergyvideos4658]

I like the fact you knew what I was on about...but made it your own.

[@strictlysega]

mr no legs should be remembered for its cool car chase, which was fucking awesome. Reminds me of modern open world video games.

[@MFields2178]

Are you or Mathew going to review Collateral Beauty? I'm surprised no one had done that yet.

[@Arrowdodger]

Going by his Midnight Screenings of it with Sarah, they'd have a hoot mocking it, but I wonder if that'd be too content ID risky.

Brad have you heard of "A killing affair" staring OJ Simpson and Elizabeth Montgomery? OJ plays a LA cop investigating a murder and having an affair with Montgomery. It was a made for TV movie from the 1970's

[@davidbauler3159]

Now, now, OJ was only ALLEGEDLY in said television film. The TV movie itself may or may not have actually taken place.

[@inqman]

I can appreciate a movie who's lighting and camera budget consist of human souls. every time a guy is murdered the movie gets better visual quality. now if only they had something worth shooting... HEY! a karate master with no legs and a dozen kills under his belt?! let's see what he does on the weekends!

[@culwin]

When are we getting a new episode of Lloyd!!!?

[@douglasjohnson4382]

That looks amazing.

[@Volvagia1927]

22:28: "Like all car chases of the time, it comes to an end due to...truckers building a wall of ice." This is supposed to be a serious movie and not Hot Fuzz 0, right? Because the image of the car chase ending by the guy crashing into the ice definitely deserves the "you don't have to say anything at all" clip.

[@jackmcslay]

22:02 apparently the studio couldn't even bother to uninstall the rollcage for the driver view shots, so I guess we're supposed to assume the character inexplicably managed to pick that one stunt-safe car

[@carlynnkratzer8612]

Bonus points for mentioning TJ!

[@AussieDragoon]

I'm surprised that with all the tie-ins in the last few years that this wasn't a review of "Return of the Incredible Hulk" the last time we got a Hulk and Thor movie. Guess a week after isn't the best time anyway. Great Review though.

[@FelisTerras]

An early review due to a upcoming wedding? How much more awesome can you get? Once more, all the best wishes to both of you, and remember to forget about us, while on your honeymoon^^ Btt, I think, the main problems(aside of the technical ones) of this movie are both the script and editing. It can't decide wether it wants to be an European drug ring or an American cop movie, so it settles on both and meshes them up horribly. The weird editing choices and often woody acting don't help either. Though, you can't sue them for false advertising; Mr. No Legs truly is amazing.

[@Moonbeam143]

People that are amazing: Spider-man, the New York Mets, Mr. No Legs.
