Stan & Ollie Join The Legion

[@thomasjorge4734]

The French Foreign Legion is so tough that it took Ming the Merciless to command them.

[@mikedee1771]

Other comics come and go. These two are timeless.

[@paulgreen1050]

Bang on ❤❤❤❤❤

[@chrisevans5259]

Love the innocence they showed in their comedy, ...their huge success was they were both so endearing,....and so so funny

[@marcdelente2456]

Stan et ollie sont uniques tellements drôles et si proches de nous leurs fans depuis des générations. Je les ai découvert j avai 5 ans et à 62 ans je les aiment toujours il me font tellement rires et apporte la paix a mon âme. Stan et ollie éternels et intemporels pour siecles .

[@ogpigeon4431]

Some things don’t change, they joined to forget a woman 😂😂. These two are absolutely amazing in every way. Their timing, facial expressions, mannerisms, attention to detail etc. I’ve watched this five or six times and each time picked up something funny I didn’t notice before.

[@stewright539]

Men come here to be without water and food and to laugh at it all.He laughs and the boys join in😂

[@larry1350]

The actor who played the French Foreign Legion captain also played Ming the Merciless in the Flash Gordon movies from the same era.

[@kadiyalakmohan]

Firsttime i saw their film at the age of 10 yrs and now i am 65 yrs still the same enthusiasm to watch them on screen

[@Dustshoe]

On television you first saw them? Fifty-five years ago? In the 1960s? You probably had to watch Laurel & Hardy on a black-and-white television!

[@CyrusInIndia]

@@Dustshoe Colour Television transmission came to India in the year 1982.

[@Dustshoe]

Cyrus Loves India: 1982? Well, I knew that. Actually, I did not! I still prefer to watch L&H in black-and-white, as it so happens. It's how I know 'em!

[@tremorsfan]

That hat scene really shows off their silent comedy skills.

[@stephenguppy3466]

This is 90 years old and still stands the test of time, unlike most stuff that is being churned out today by the incredibly small gene pool which hogs every panel show in this country.

[@AustinGoodman-ub9fo]

Well said mate

[@derangedband]

Its crazy how well these guys stood the test of time! Their films are still incredibly funny :D

[@johndoe-bw8wx]

Were not sorry just discouraged...I almost wet myself!! 🤣

[@rackinfrackin]

Only Laurel & Hardy could be hilariously funny just leaving a room! I love them. Alway have, always will.

[@GSGExtreme44]

The hat scene was epic! 😂😂😂

[@nathanwilliams2152]

You should see the hat scene in “The Music Box” - that was brilliantly done. Music Box is probably my favourite piece of theirs, apart from Blockheads

[@markdaly1648]

[@orbitalforest]

Absolutely brilliant !

[@patrickwheeler5144]

The clincher of the whole movie is that even the leader of the “Riff Raff” has a picture of Jeanie Weenie! Sheer genius!

[@busaman5261]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@jontyarnold8522]

So do I!

[@LATVERIAN1]

I love how they use that autographed picture of Jean Harlow that no man seems to be able to forget.

[@MyLateralThawts]

The running joke in the movie was that every single man had signed up to forget a woman ...the same woman!

[@mbabist01]

Ollie joined the legion to forget Jean Harlow... as did the captain, and the Arab chieftain!

Oliver: “Jeanie Weenie. Traveled all over the world; loved by everyone; and she’s mine, all mine!” Yes, she did travel the world and was loved - by every man out there! And no, poor Oliver, she’s not yours, all yours! ....One of my favorite films!

Flash Gordon‘s Ming the Merciless, Charles Middleton.

[@Bufoferrata]

The voice! I knew I recognized it!

[@libbaT]

Merciless!!

[@judithread1247]

Also appears as a Welfare Inspector trying to track down a young girl that Stan and Ollie are looking after. Is asked by the duo "What do you charge to haunt a house"?

[@countiblis1246]

To physically defeat the Emperor Ming you need Flash Gordon, to mentally ruin him you need these two guys.

[@kevinbutler1955NYC]

Charlie Middleton..Best remembered as"Emperor Ming"in the three"Flash Gordon"movie serials..played the Legion's Commandant in "Beau Hunks" and in "The Flying Deuces"...with the boys.

[@Donald-wv1cm]

The Commander is Charles Middleton, who was Ming the Merciless, Emperor of the Universe, in the Flash Gordon serials. Ming was one of the greatest villains in film history. Middleton was also one of the prosecutors of Chico Marx (Baravelli), in the Marx Brothers' Duck Soup.

I love your profile pic 😂

[@patrickwheeler5144]

In the Flying Deuces, I loved how Oliver actually came back from the dead - as a horse and Stan came back as himself! I used this scene once against my wife: She was endlessly fussing at me about something and I told her that if there is such a thing as reincarnation, she would come back as a horse because she was already a nag!

[@michaelstephen819]

Charles Laughton is brillant in this.

Commandant,: "Joined up together eh?" Stanley: "Yes ma'am." Hilarious. Charles B. Middleton as the commandant was always great in these movies. "This is the army of forgotten souls. Men come here to accept the hardships of the desert. To be without, food, or water and laugh at it all. Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha".
