@@shaan1001 no it isn’t. It’s a play on the concept but he just made sure he had the right house. Anyone in the same situation would do the exact same thing.
@@shaan1001 of course there had to be someone bring it up the racist trending argument.... I hope you guys realize one day that this "racism" which you see everywhere nowadays, is just you guys being mad at life, and trying to find a social subject that can serve as a shelter for your anger. I know because I used to be like that until a couple of years ago. And for your information, everyone in the damn world is racist, one way or another. Ita perfectly natural for someone to not like someone else's culture and habits and etc, thats one thing, and sometimes saddly you have a few people acting with hate towards some others, and that we can all agree its wrong. But above all, much of the racism its being forced by your own eyes, just like starring at a old wooden floor, which eventually, if you stare to much, you'll begin to see some shapes and images, but in fact they only exist in your head.
I watched this movie in the movie theater as a teenager. Man, the whole room was exploding in laughter the whole time, namely the zipper scene and Mary putting the cream on her hair. This movie was epic. The right balance of cheesiness with proper comedy.
Didn't know Kingpin flopped, wow! Vanessa Angel was an utter babe. Also the like "we don't have a cow" as Woody chugs down a bucket full of "milk" kills me every time.
You KNOW it’s going to be a killer movie when some people walk out after just a few minutes playing. Can’t get enough of the Farrelly brothers… bring on the raunch lol! Thanks Minty!
After this movie came out I was in a Spencers store, they sell novelties, and they had a "hair gel" thing you hooked on your ear, made out of semi clear plastic.
This is one of my top comedy movies. I'm so glad they didn't ruin it by making a sequel. I'm a Farley Brothers fan because I'm originally from Rhode Island and they incorporate RI landmarks we all recognize. Plus they make very funny movies. Big blue termite. Been a landmark since as long as I can remember. I'm 55. When we visited RI in 2004, my son saw the bug and shouted" that's in Dumb and dumber" . For the record, King pin was and is very underrated.

Would you mind doing Kinpin next since we’re on a Farrelly movie kick. It was such a hilarious movie. Bill Murray stole every scene he was in. Randy Quaid was funny as hell also.
I think every dude watching is super jealous of your garage video store. My man cave is full of boxes I've been meaning to unpack for 3 years now. Well done sir.
@@judgedrekk2981 literally 2 hours ago, my wife gave me a lecture about finishing stuff around the house... including my man cave, which still has most of the boxes unpacked. Lmao. I'll be getting it done soon!
I laughed so hard throughout this movie. It was one of the first comedy’s that had that effect in a while. It’s pure comedy gold. I’m glad the studio didn’t get their way. Studio films are usually a mess because there’s too many cook’s in the kitchen. The Farrelly brothers know what they’re doing.
Agreed this was one of the first movies that I can remember truly rolling with laughter the entire movie and it still pays off even now as a great evening of laughs
I laughed so much. I almost went to the ER. I was wheezing too much. My buddy couldn’t help but make fun of me the entire movie. Knowing we were sitting next to my (secret crush)Mary in the theater. And making fun of me having a special needs brother. He was a jerk, but it made for an unforgettable movie experience.
Lee Evans is actually from bristol but I can see the confusion as in his stand up shows he does a pretty convincing welsh accent also I'm really happy matt Dillon got the part of pat Healey as he is by far my favourite character and totally steals the show and every time he's on screen in something about Mary I end up crying with laughter the movies definitely better for having him in it thanks for this video minty your awesome luv ya lots 😂😊👍💕
I love this movie. Thank you for reviewing it! I remember an interview with Cameron Diaz where she talked about the hair gel scene. The special effects people had to find which kind of gel looked the most authentic. She remarked that she was glad that hadn't been her job. With her 100% on that one!
"There's Something About Minty" Thanks for doing what you do, Minty. Love your take on things. And this was the funniest movie I ever saw in a theater. Everyone was screaming with laughter!
Well, THIS just made my day!!!! I made the fake dogs including the dog in the cast for Tony Gardner and was one of the on-set team on location in Miami! I have lots of BTS pix and it looks like you used a few of them in your video! I'm actually a fan of your "10 Things" series and have been watching them for a while so it was really nice for you to give THERE'S SOMETHING ABOUT MARY the "Minty" treatment!
This is one of my all time favorite movies ever. I laughed so much throughout this movie and I own the DVD of it. Thank you for another great video Minty and I hope you have a wonderful day. ⛅️
Probably the hardest I have ever laughed was while watching There's Something About Mary. But it wasn't because of a joke in the film, at least not directly. The film was a huge hit and many people were talking about how funny it was. One day, when my whole family was together, my grandmother said to us that she had heard that the movie was very funny and would like to see it. My sister, who should have known better, said, “Oh we can get that on pay per view.” For context, my grandmother was about 83-years-old, never swore, and went to mass nearly every day. She was a saint. But my sister had suggested pay per view so we sat down to watch it with her. In the masturbation scene, after he finished and was searching for his “love potion”, my grandmother asked “What's he looking for?” My brother replied, “his watch Grandma, he's looking for his watch.” I don't know if you had to be there to truly get how funny that was, but as I said I don't think I ever laughed harder than I did when my brother said “his watch.”
Grandmas and movies stories can be hilarious. One time my grandma was telling a story about my aunt ditching school to watch soap operas. Having already talked at length about the incident, my grandma paused and said, "To make a long story short..." to which I immediately responded, "Too late." (a la "Clue") The other family members that were there exploded with laughter.
That video store setup is awesome minty its that what you collect I love seeing other peoples collections the for showing you should do a video on that sometime
Awesome video. I was dating my future wife when seeing something about Mary. I knew she was right for me because she shared the same sense of humor as me. We love something about Mary. Thank you!
I remembered when this movie came out . My wife wanted to see it, and I had no idea what it was, so I went along with her her to make her happy. I'm glad I did. I laughed so hard throughout the entire film. It is so good.
Speaking of Cameron Diaz,she was in the film “Being John Malkovich”,where she played John Cusack’s wife. That would be a good film to make a video about.
Thanks for this one Minty. This is one of those movies that's funnier ever time you watch it and never gets old. It would have been one great movies for outtakes ..
I've seen that Seinfeld episode a few times, and I always think about a cone filled with meat when I've watched it. Now it all makes sense. The stars have aligned. Ty Minty
I liked when he was trying to sound like he was into working with special needs people with his "I work with retards" line. Just the way he said it was hilarious
I read that initially the Farrely brothers wanted Steve Young to appear to appear at the end of the movie Young was approached about the cameo but after reading the script, he declined because of the raunchy nature of the movie. This is why Brett Favre appeared. Also, this movie has really memorable line and scenes. The fish hook scene is a standout. If you listen really close enough, Warren says one of the funniest lines (IMO). While everyone is gathering around Ted and Mary, Warren says "He got in the way." as in the Ted stepped in front of the fish hook. That's classic and subtle. Also, King Pin is a very under rated movie.
I've always wondered " WHAT KIND OF HOUSE HAS A VEIW INTO THE BATHROOM THAT ISNT NEXT DOOR??" How is that scene possible?What is going on with that house?? Anyway...loyal watcher for years now bro. Keep it up minty!
Minty. Your "sponsor" gag had me rolling 😂😂😂. I hear sponsor and was waitting for the typical manscape or whatever. Nope here a plate. 😂😂😂😂 priceless gold! On with the show
Hey Minty. Love your videos. Another thing about that singing narrator is that he was also in kingpin. They were all in a bar and he was the singer of the band that was playing there.
Easily one of the best comedies to come out of the 90s with so many memorable scenes. The willy caught in zipper scene unfortunately also happened to me as a teenager in the 80s so that scene brought back some painful memories although at least I was able to resolve it myself and without the help of the emergency services!
The Farrelly brothers are really great at writing well developed characters. This is one of the extremely rare movies where I can actually understand why these men all fall for the leading lady. Even my mother likes this movie and the threshold of raunchy humor she tolerates is about what Friends was. She was excited when she first watched this because she actually knew the troubadour, Jonathan Richman. He’d perform at a lot of local places in Massachusetts in the 70’s and that’s how she met him. This movie has a lot of heart and I love it
"How did you get the beans over the frank???" Lol. Very funny movie! I remember going to see this when it came out and the date I was with just wasn't finding it funny at all and so we ended up walking out on it. I actually didn't finish watching it until years later, lol.
I always felt this was the beginning of Ben Stiller's typecasting where so many of his movies were pretty much the same as this one whether it was Meet the Parents and its sequels or Along Came Polly or The Heartbreak Kid too many
it's the beginning of his transition to simpler comedies (even if he still did Mystery Men afterwards), but it's shocking the studio founded him "unknown" he had done The Ben Stiller Show in that point and already had Reality Bites on his belt, already done cult movies like Working Trash, i'm guessing they just really wanted Jim Carrey
Kingpin and The Cable Guy are the two most underrated comedies of the 90's (and still two of my all time favorite and quotable movies)... in my opinion. Facts💯✔️
I heartily agree with you & Siskel & Ebert. Hilarious with heart. And for me I see one of the cars parked in a row in the final scene everyday in my garage...Bought June 16th of the 98 movie year. Buying a new car right after the next model year comes out, which happens about six months early...Saves about $7,000. TgT
Nice one buddy!! Please do Natural Born Killers sometime soon, also seeing this one reminded me about how awesomely funny Me, Myself and Irene is so that would be a good one too. Thanks again Aussie Geek!!!! (Completely meant as a compliment.)
Oh my god you reminded me of one of the funniest movies I've seen... i laughed just remembering parts of the movie.... i love the big choppers part. Still laughing 😃
I think perhaps I've got some issues. I would have prefered the "Ted suddenly gets nailed by a bus" ending. At least in a "this is what could have happened" ending like Clue. The concept of that is just hilarious. LOVED that sponsor joke!
One of my favorite scenes is when Keith David is comforting Warren after the baseball behind the ear gig. When Ted is needing to go to the bathroom Keith says through his teeth "its back that way".
mentioned in the dialogue is "Borring-ton", a reference to Barrington, a town I can see from my kitchen window, yet I first viewed this film in a theater on Guam
in light of the recent passings of Davy Jones, Peter Tork, and now Michael Nesmith - you should seriously do a video about the Monkees' 1968 feature film HEAD, as well as their 1969 network television special 33 1/3 Revolutions Per Monkee
Great episode; however, Minty forgot to add that Steve Young was supposed to be in the film, instead of Brett Favre, but dropped out because the content of the film went against his faith. Look it up!
Minty, that plate gag had me nearly spitting coffee this morning. LOL keep safe, and I hope you have a great summer.... (I feel like I am signing a high school year book :) )
"I want a guy who can play 36 holes of golf, and still have enough energy to take Warren and me to a baseball game, and eat hot dogs, I'm talking sausage hot dogs and beer, not lite beer, but beer. That's my ad, print it up."
Weird to look back and see a very young Sarah Silverman in this movie playing one of Mary's friends. Also, the end credits movie clips arranged to the song "Build me up Buttercup" by the Foundations was also great. I remember watching this the weekend it came out in July '98, and was about to leave the theater when the credits rolled, but that catchy tune caused me to sit right back down.
Keep the great content coming Minty.. I wanna see 10 things you didn’t know about Star Wars, 10 things you didn’t know about Gremlins, and 10 things you didn’t know about Deuce Bigalow
A friend during my residency training in Miami owned the house that Mary lived in (her family did). She said that Diaz and the Farrely brothers were just INSANELY nice but Stiller never wanted to interact with anyone and was a complete asshole. They have since sold the house and it's replaced with an office building (from what I remember). They all had dinner with the cast apart from Stiller who didn't want to show. I saw the pictures and it really surprised me.
There is definitely something about Cameron Diaz! Great movie, thanks for the review Minty - are u gonna do reviews from all your shop collection? Anyway I'm off to the shops now as I feel I need a new plate or two for some reason 😂
It's always hilarious to hear people criticize an accent then seeing them find out the person is just using their own accent and their criticism just reflects poorly on themselves
Jonathan Richman (the musical narrator) fronted a fantastic proto-punk band in the early 70s known as the Modern Lovers, a band that also featured David Robinson (later of The Cars), and Jerry Harrison (later of the Talking Heads), all bands being New England-based, much like the Farrelly Brothers!
