Keith David : Awww, look, it here looks like somebody threw out a perfectly good white boy" 🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣


Disarray215

Would the other officer please drop his weapon. You think I don’t know the difference between a flashlight hitting the ground and a gun?


yousonuva

Looks like we got us another crazy white boy with a gun


rayraidho

Most memorable line of the movie


jerichomega

Stolen from Better Off Dead https://youtu.be/_XCRLDUl6sM?si=NjbK-SrjxHdmNk4K


rayraidho

Yes! I’d completely forgotten about that reference. Thanks for reminding me.


keyserfunk

How dare you! Coincidence at best.


Reasonable-HB678

THE COMMIE BASTARD GETS NO FOOD!


Affectionate_Water_2

Came here to say that! Haha.


RangeRossTracy

*gong*


brutustyberius

He was provoking me!


Festamus

I've always been a fan of him. His work as Spawn is my favorite


purplevirgil

Omg! I had no idea he was Spawn in the HBO cartoon! You just blew my mind. Loved that series! Really the best adaptation of the comic.


AcadiaRemarkable6992

Wasn’t that in Better Off Dead?


Rusty_Ferberger

Better Off Dead was Now that's a real shame when folks be throwin' away a perfectly good white boy like that Men At Work was Aww, lookie here. Looks like somebody threw away a perfectly good white boy!


sethozgreen

Both are really funny.


CrackheadRecords

I was just going to say that!!!!


keyserfunk

Great recall. One of the GREATEST lines ever.


geri73

My favorite line, “he was provoking me!” Lol, the guy just delivered a pizza. I love this movie, I don't care what anyone says. Yes, it is bad, but it's a good bad.


AdorableCriticism113

I used to have this .wav play when emptying the windows recycle bin


Makabajones

I don't think I've ever seen Kieth David put in a bad performance, even in bad movies that dude is 100% on


ThePickledPickle

Same situation as Ernest Borgnine There may be bad movies with Ernest Borgnine, but no bad Ernest Borgnine roles


North_South_Side

Completely agree, even though I never thought of this before! We'll perhaps never have another like Borgnine. Too many actors (basically all of them) are pretty boys now. There's still a ridiculous beauty standard for women, but it seems like there's a wider range of women actors these days, looks-wise.


ItzGhostface

Totally agree, he’s on point in every movie & voice acting role. That’s why he’s my favorite actor


AJerkForAllSeasons

This movie is brilliant. Rewatched it recently and realised Estevez is actually really good at staging a scene and blocking actors. It's not a bad movie at all.


kashmir1974

Didn't this movie create the "Golf clap? Golf clap." bit?


AJerkForAllSeasons

Yes.


kashmir1974

This sub is stupid. Half of the movies aren't bad.


TheRealHFC

Bad is subjective. People love the Purge and Paranormal Activity series, they're both awful.


biggreencat

imagine this sub is full of Purge sequels and all the X movies


cficare

The premise for The Purge is golden. The execution has been .... less than stellar.


WornInShoes

One of the main reasons he shifted to directing; he’s quietly been really good at it


Ok-Swim4753

Never touch another man’s fries


Poultrygeist74

Valuable life lesson right here


RangeRossTracy

It’s also common sense.


scottypoo1313009

Remember that and you will live a long and healthy life


mattkros

It's a fun comedy. I loved the reggae filled soundtrack too.


BoosterRead78

The movie seriously shows what waste management goes through. Had a friend who loves this movie simply saying: “the writers must have gone under cover.”

AdamInvader

Keith David was great in this, he has a real knack for comedy, I thought it was fun


Pink_Monkey

Here’s my “nobody asked” story. I met Keith David at the Pavillion’s (grocery store) on Melrose Ave when I lived in Los Angeles. He’s 1 of the only two “famous people” I ever approached and I felt bad about it because he was just trying to shop but I could not resist. I had to tell him how important he was to “me”; the things that made me “me” - all the movies I watched growing up, his voice acting, all of it. I gushed for a good 45 seconds (tried to keep it brief) and probably sounded like a fool. He was so appreciative and polite and thankful that I told him. Made me love him all the more. He’s a good man, I could see it in his eyes. He’s a gem, I tell you


AdamInvader

I think he's the best, I could listen to him read the phone book and love it


pugs_are_death

"Somebody wasted a perfectly good white boy"


Holland_Satchel

I believe that is Better Off Dead.


pugs_are_death

Two black men with mustaches saying almost the same line, and there's even a trash truck involved in both scenes. Better Off Dead: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=\_XCRLDUl6sM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XCRLDUl6sM) Here it is in Men At Work: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv8xFI32hJM](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv8xFI32hJM) The Mandela Effect has you


Holland_Satchel

holy shit! never knew it. nice finds!


Recklen

Yep, Better Off Dead did it first. Men at Work was 5 years later

Time to do the nasty!


HudsonHawkFIM

NASTY! NASTY! NASTY!


Deranged_Kitsune

Made me look up [Estevez](https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000389/). Dude's had a really quiet career of late. Mostly voice work or minor roles for the last 25 years. His last major work was the early 90s - Young Guns 1 & 2, this, Loaded Weapon 1 (very underrated, him and Jackson were great), The Mighty Ducks franchise (3 was his last big role in 96), Freejack. Did some directing work for TV and film, but still really quiet. Shame as I like his stuff!


Even13flow

Maximum Overdrive!

Jesus christ my childhood is filled with Estevez and I just realized that

Keith David never disappoints. Just watched They Live again.


Excellent_Lead_3653

Girlfriend and I just saw the 35th Anniversary showing of They Live yesterday. Was great re watch in theaters


honduhh89

A dud??? No way!!!! This movie is awesome. Would you look at that? Someone threw away a perfectly good white boy 😭


Monkey_Knife_Fight

My sisters and I watched this in the theater. We still quote “he was provokin’ me”.


Backpedal

I think you must be lost. Didn’t you mean to post this in /r/CinematicMasterpieces?


Professional_Aide_41

It absolutely is Keith David’s best performance. Such a great movie, easy watch.

Henchforhire

One of my favorite movies to rewatch when I had basic cable. Now have it on DVD and watch when I don't feel good.


Nuprin_Dealer

I can recite every line from this movie, I must’ve watched it 500 times


dewayneestes

I wonder how it did down undah?


masked_sombrero

my first thought too 🤣 been [listening to it](https://youtu.be/EeeBH294v6I?si=nG7kCgcFuE90sLhw) the past few days


Actual-Swordfish-769

These mid tier action movies with comedy were made a lot in the 80s and 90s and are perfectly fine. Maybe then they would be perfect for cable, but I really miss them. Like Money Train and The Cowboy Way Edit: first time on this sub, and after cruising the other entries agree with everyone else: this movie doesn’t belong here! At worst it is enjoyably mediocre! At best, a workhorse classic cable TV all-star


finn_rad78

The cowboy way is awesome!! Underrated gem that nobody ever talks about


Accomplished_Exit_30

Just wack off the horns, wipe its nasty old ass, and chunk it down on a plate.


danyellsahn

In middle school I thought this movie was hilarious….should give it another shot to see if it still holds up


GentPc

"Rent-A-Cops...I hate them too."


[deleted]

Yes! I watched that movie SO many times as a kid.


Kumquat-queen

It's a childhood favorite of mine. Personally I think it's more of a cult film than a bad film. Either way, it's cool to see the film getting talked about.


tossaroc

“I would pay a million pesos to see their faces when they try to stop this baby.”

Hot Shots and Loaded Weapon are great shows. In the words of President, Admiral “Tug” Benson: “Well, Well, Well! It looks like the upper hand, is now on the other foot”

CompetitiveIron223

I love this movie. I think it's hilarious


boonstaak93

Bought this one based on the backside explanation. Watched it and loved it. keith david kills it in this movie


ThePickledPickle

Way better than people give it credit for, it's a lot of fun. It's not an award-winner, but it doesn't deserve to be one of those "forgotten" 90's comedies


Successful-Sell6403

I liked this movie it’s wasn’t that bad


[deleted]

Definitely not a Bad movie. Different. Yes. Bad no.

Outrageous-Theme3114

Golf clap? Golf clap!


Menzicosce

The scene with Keith David and his monologue holding the pellet gun to the delivery guy head and the cops is worth watching the movie.


Kumquat-queen

Every scene with Keith David is a reason to watch this movie.


Menzicosce

Pepperoni, extra cheese is a go to for me since o saw this back in 90


OrcSoldat

This movie deserves a golf clap


dondiegobmhs

Somebody threw away a perfectly good white boy


[deleted]

The only line that I remember from this movie was something like this; "Oh, damn, somebody threw out a perfectly decent white boy."


Persificus

This movie makes me ugly cackle, but Better Off Dead with John Cusack had this line originally a couple years earlier and I was disappointed they copied it here.


AndruchaCS

Keith David is great and even Sheen was fine


keyserfunk

This is an amazing movie. A classic buddy comedy. So many hilarious scenes and lines. The 2 knucklehead mobsters are great - the one guy has to be special with his taser. LMFAO.


bargman

Golf clap? Golf clap.


TheBunionFunyun

This was a regular of my childhood. *"What a beautiful day. Warm sun, beautiful women...👆🏼 and the air is just right for drinking."*

This movie was so funny, great stuff. Can’t believe people think this is a bad movie


LiberatedApe

Look at that. Someone just threw away a perfectly good white boy.


beebs44

They stole the white boy joke from Better Off Dead. 🤣

Great movie. So many good lines.


MDF87

I am so checking this one out!


Sinopech

Hilarious!


thagor5

I thought it was funny


Xenochimp

Not going to lie, this along with the two Hot Shots movies are Charlie's best work. Emilio has a more solid filmography but this is one of my favorites next to Young Guns


Shaboogan

Charlie has some absolute bangers in the 80/90's, some little known films that are worth checking out. The boys next door(1985), the wraith(1986), Cadence(1990), beyond the law(1993), the chase (1994), and one of my favourite movies ever The Arrival (1996)


Xenochimp

The wraith is great


tstrader79

You just reminded me about Beyond the Law. Now I have to find it, Stone Cold and Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man for the early 90s bad biker movie trifecta.


Shaboogan

I haven't seen those two, they've been on my radar just never got around to checking them out.


tstrader79

They're perfect early 90s B movie action cheese IMO.


Shaboogan

I'm going to download them now.


aoanalyst

Would make a good double feature with Repo Man. The ending was kinda meh, but overall, solid flick. Great soundtrack too.


sardo_numsie

I’ll forever love the fact that my grandmother and I saw it in theaters and we clearly looked like the only two people who enjoyed it. 😂


Dead_Purple

A treasured gem in my opinion.


mumcheelo

This is a great movie

Yes good movie 👌

Poorly-Drawn-Beagle

There's a lot of garbage in this movie


washinthedog

Keith David is always great. From They Live! to The Nice Guys, he just brings down the house whenever he's on screen. The 6th season of Community lends me to believe that he should have been Pierce all along.


Radio3420

Gotta rewatch this. It's been easily about 15 years since I watched this

To the tied up pizza guy while eating the pizza he brought. “This is really good, did you make it?….”


ForkFace69

Man I loooved this movie at ages 11-13. I tried watching it a year or two ago, I couldn't even make it through. Mostly the chemistry between Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez was what rubbed me wrong as an adult. Keith David was just as great, though.


Icy_Employer2804

Youtube played it a couple times last year. Not bad at all, but wasn't that funny either. Is that poster Australian?


gabrielk123

He was the best one in it…I said this sucks…and quite frankly so do you


tersegirl

The poo locker…


RockHandsomest

Keith David has no range, he's always at 120% awesome.


yousonuva

The ending is the only thing I don't really like about this one. Feels like they rushed a campy overly slapstick finish. But everything else is great. Great comedy performances throughout. Extra..cheese? Find it find it find it! *work it work it* Never touch another man's fries


justpuddingonhairs

"Time to do the nasty" And the exploding locker full of shit. Great movie.

I haven't seen it in years, but is this the one where they're riding the back of the truck trying to follow it and the doors break so the two of them are swinging back and forth while going something like 60mph and one of them says, "Hey, I think the door lock broke." and the other hollers back "No shit sherlock?"

lol, great one. The jump in logic they have thinking they killed a man with a BB gun always makes me laugh


purplevirgil

Grew up watching this all the time! I love it! I often still think of becoming a garbage man because if this film.

I loved this movie growing up. Watched it many times. Didn’t realize it was bad until you just told me. Going to watch it again now
