Michael Winslow IS the same sound effect guy from Spaceballs. My favorite scene in this movie is when Mahoney is teaching Hightower how to drive. Hightower ripps the front seat of the slugbug out and sits in the back seat to drive. Hightower hits a dude and the dude gets out, all pissed off, goes to the window and realizes the driver is in the back seat and HUGE. He quietly goes back to his own car. Love that scene.

I got to meet G W Bailey twice. My friend attended the same church and was good friends with his son Martin. The first time I met him we had stopped by his to pick up Martin, on our way to see Iron Maiden. When we walked into the house GW was sitting on a Lazy-Boy Recliner and before Martin could introduce us he turned to us and said, (LOUDLY in his gravely voice) " NO!!!!! My head did NOT go up the horse's ass!'. The second time we stopped by pick up Martin, We were in the living room and GW walked out of the kitchen and handed us sodas. When I said thank you. He said, "I'm not being generous! I'm trying to fill you little bastards up so you have less room for beer!".

40 years ago. This one along with Beverly Hills Cop. When unorthodox comedies about police were golden. P.A. had so many characters with so many personalities. Great direction and writing for it's genre. 12 of the people involved have passed away, some of them part of the franchise for most of the films. Director of the first installment, the late Hugh Wilson does a cameo (Angry Driver). 1+6 sequels within a decade and the first film was the highest-grossing. The content was dumbed down and marketed to kids as an animated series (1988-1989) with tie-in comics and video games. Also a short-lived series continuation (1997-1998) of the films with some castmembers reprising their roles. All of them are good with their own craziness. Go ahead and watch 'em all.

The idea for this movie came when the producer, Paul Maslansky, worked on THE RIGHT STUFF and needed many cops for a scene. The state provided them with cadets from the Police Academy. When they arrived on their busses, Maslansky noticed that they "didn't look like cops". They were big, small, old, very young, fat, and too thin. The present Police Captain smiled and told him: "We have to accept them as applicants, but nothing says that we must pass them".

Hightower, who was played to perfection by Bubba Smith was a recently retired NFL football player. He was notouriuos for being the biggest, baddest, meanest, defensive lineman in the league when he played. Just like Alex Karris before him who played Mongo in Blazing Saddles Being a Honda Civic driver at the time which was basically a tin can on wheels, I loved it when he tore out the front seat so he could fit into the car.

I could direct you to hundreds of examples, but I will just say that cops used to require more education. They used to require some education usually in the field of criminal justice. Some cops had 4 year degrees and while the worked got their Law degree and became lawyers. Right around 9/11 we started lowering the requirement and hiring any former soldier. I love our soldiers but a soldier suffering from PTSD doesn’t need a gun and a license to kill!

Good looking out for watching this movie because it is still one of my most favorite ones from the 80s. When this movie was released on March 23, 1984, in the US, I was 6 going on 7 years old in the second grade. I probably shouldn't have watched this and lot of stuff back then at that age, but I did. A lot of kids watched this movie and the others, especially since there was a Police Academy cartoon a few years later in 1988. I believe I somehow seen this movie on HBO or VHS first even though I don't remember exactly when, but I've seen them on both. That's because it took about 1 to 2 years for movies to make it to VHS and sometimes longer for television in the 80s. The movies would premiere on Cable TV before regular tv. Anyway, those were the days. I hope you continue to watch the sequels, at least up to Police Academy 4. Good day. 👍

This was the first movie that I ever watched on VHS. I remember my parents coming home with a VHS recorder and this movie. Man, was the 8 year old me having fun. That was almost 40 years ago...

Hi Jen, great reaction to this comedy classic! The Police Academy movies are hilarious, please continue the franchise with 2, 3 & 4 :) So funny and they're underrated imo. You're looking gorgeous as always :)

The most iconic thing from this film is the Blue Oyster, which is a running joke throughout the series. Great reaction. Have a nice day.

Gotta have a little bit for everyone. The humor is mostly so childish that kids love it. Always a love connection or three. Some adult humor and nudity that can be edited out for television releases. Some really great music in a lot of the films too. A few sports jokes and cultural references and you have a hit. Storyline wasn't always a priority in the '80s.

Jen: Where did he send them? The scene in the bar. Jen: I see.)) Jen: What will he do? The scene with Lassard. Jan: I see.)) Me: Jen's face is priceless when she says "I see".)) P.S. Miss Murray, watch the movie Leon: The Professional (1994). Have fun. And a little awkwardness.
