Outrageous Fortunes Morgue fight

[@221BBakerStreet]

I cracked up as their expressions slowly changed from heartbreak to curiousity to disbelief to (momentary) joy. These ladies are hysterical.

"Me!? What the fuck are you doing here!" 😂😂

[@mr.nibblenips4231]

It's a fucking pencil!

[@CorvetteStingray1969]

This is gotta be one of the best comical movies in the world!… These two characters are hysterical

[@alvexok5523]

Yeah, and I also liked George Carlin's addition to the movie when Shelly and Bette go to New Mexico. But all of the New York parts of the movie are also fun and action packed. Good scenes include Shelley and Bette imitating cops when pretending to bust a couple major drug dealers/fake ID makers to get them to give them info on Michael Sanders, the two of them riding in taxi with a tough guy who also played the tough drill sergeant in "An officer and a gentleman", and them taking the acting class with the so-called famous acting professor (who's turned out to be a criminal who used the theater college as his cover). And then there's this scene with Shelley and Bette talking to the officer who starts out laughing at them, and this was where there was something I don't get. They, as it turns out, hadn't explained to him yet what it was about Sanders that made them so sure the guy in the morgue wasn't him, because they were then overexplaining it with the officer still not seeming to get it, until Bette went a couple of remarks too far and got them thrown out. So, what was the officer laughing so hard at while saying "because of this nugget of testimony, you want us to spend tax dollars on an investigation?" when they hadn't told him yet about Sanders' bigger body part that the guy in the morgue didn't have?

Bette Midler made some of the best movies during this era.

[@rachaelsas]

2 great comedic actresses! Loved this film x

[@psychoboysaz]

"Well what the hell" "That's not his..." "Look at that thing..." "It's too small..." "It's a f*&king pencil" LOL Classic scene. Bette and Shelly rule!!!!

I loved this movie back in the day. 🙂

[@NaztyNutz]

greatest movie of all time!!! i could probably quote this movie line for line

[@psychoboysaz]

"Cause there's no way - that that guy - gave a shit - about you" One of the Best movies of ALL TIME. ALL TIME DAMNIT!!

[@DivineGraceQueen]

I've seen this movie about a million times, but for some reason I still ALWAYS crack up at the "Needle-Dick the Bug-Fucker" line. Always.

[@NaztyNutz]

YESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@lizziebkennedy7505]

Amen!

[@My2Cents1]

"The bug-focka'"

[@carolinegoss856]

I love when Shelley Long says that he wouldn’t lower himself for the likes of her and Bette Midler comes back with, “Oh, he lowered himself alright!” She had the best lines and deliveries!

[@baconbap]

Funny thing is, I had heard people say it before. 😂

[@orlandobabe]

This better not be remade.

[@cubdukat]

Casting would be a nightmare. Katherine Heigl could probably take the Shelley Long role, but who could take Sandy?

[@antmann9123]

McKinnon and wiig could pull this off. Although I hope they don’t remake it

[@furbl4345]

@@cubdukat Jennifer Coolidge would play a great Sandy :)

[@Hard_Boiled_Entertainment]

Heh. Bette cusses like a drunken sailor while Shelley keeps it PG.

[@janetduncan87]

This movie so underrated. I love it.

Does the phrase needle dick, the bug fucka mean anything to you ? LOL

[@ihatewhitey6689]

[@carolinegoss856]

Bette Midler steals every scene she’s in. I loved hocus pocos because of her! And just about every movie she’s ever been in. She’s outrageous in her roles and yet such a lady in interviews. Love that!

[@ERstat77]

I agree, can't wait for Hocus Pocus 2 tomorrow.

[@alvexok5523]

@@ERstat77 The one thing I didn't get about this scene was, what was the officer laughing at during the first moment of their seeing him? They hadn't told him yet about the "size" of the guy in the morgue and how that's why they know he's not Michael Saunders, so what was he laughing about and what was he referring to when he said "based on this one little nugget of testimony.."?

[@alvexok5523]

Could you answer my above question that I asked @ERstat77? He never responded, maybe you know answer?

[@carey579]

[@forestkaat]

Love this film - Bette said it was not easy working with Shelly - late to the set & other difficulties. I'm not surprised.

[@hijodelaisla275]

Do you feel that it had an effect on the quality of the film that was produced?

[@PJChgo1]

Shelley was never late to the set - she was a perfectionist so that wouldn't have flown with her. She was the kind of performer who would take one line and analyze it for 8 hours. Costars on Cheers have talked about that too. A great actress but it's not always easy to make the sausages, as it were.

[@davidpar2]

I doubt working with either woman was a walk in the park

[@BBB-fx8be]

Long should be an American national treasure, great performer and character actress - I know she could be neurotic as an actress, a perfectionist as another commenter has mentioned, but also not a bad bone in her body as a head writer of Cheers has mentioned - she has never been spiteful or mean=spirited about any of her colleagues, regardless of what insinuations they have made about her, I think that should be noted.

[@alvexok5523]

​@@BBB-fx8beI agree with you on that. I've heard too that she wasn't mean spirited. Another question I have is this youtube scene, what is the officer laughing at? They haven't told him yet about the size of Michael Sanders and how it couldn't have been him in the morgue. So what's he talking about when laughing and saying "with this little nugget of testimony, you want us to spend tax dollars on an investigation?". And he still didn't get it until they explained it to him several more times, so what was the officer laughing and talking about before all that?

[@alanwisdom7777]

This movie is hilarious 😂 🤣 they don't do movie like this anymore

[@CloudsNRockets]

Luv this movie!

[@BruceFord1976]

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY FAVE SCENE

[@nycp1969]

This was a very funny movie that was overshadowed by Big Business for some reason. I'd say they were equally funny.

[@RebelBuddha1971]

Big Business is great but I’d venture to say that Shelley and Bette’s chemistry is even better (even though they apparently didn’t get along irl).

[@nycp1969]

@@RebelBuddha1971 I don't know. I thought Bette had great chemistry with Lily.

They have great chemistry, though Bette basically told Oprah that working with Shelley was a nightmare.

[@wdh47211]

They later said that they hated working together. BM said it on Oprah. She said SL was not nice

Bette Midler and Shelley didn't like working together. But hey they at least they did a funny movie together

Guys would any other total nobodies like to rewrite the brilliantly written and acted lines here in the comments section we’ve all just watched two fucking seconds ago? Just in case any goldfish have KZbin accounts.

Little woman but a beautiful person

[@sheagroza]

you see, my question is.. why is his girlfriends the only ones there😅 if i a doctor id be like “why is his family not here??” I mean logically speaking, if he wasn’t a sneaky link😂😂

[@alvexok5523]

His family could've been there an hour or two earlier or later. A body can be in the morgue for several days before the funeral and burial and the deceased person's family isn't going to be there every minute of every day until then. And also, the movie suggested that Michael had no family in New York. He was from New Mexico, and it seemed that he didn't have family there either, we never see any of them, or hear it ever mentioned that he had family. The only people Michael's ever with are the other goons who work with him.

[@victoriaashton9791]

I love Bette Midler. One of the funniest comedies of all is what I think.
