That last scene where madison performs at the drill meet always gets me. Both from the nostalgia of movie and seeing the end result of squad's overcoming their flaws as a unit, to them finally earning the respect of major payne. This also makes me nostalgic from my time in jROTC.
Fun Fact: Martin Lawrence was the original casting choice for Major Benson Winifred Payne. But Lawrence declined because of his commitment to Bad Boys, but Lawrence would later play in Rebound where he also has to lead a bunch of misfit kids much like Major Payne.
Even when I saw the movie I think I wanted to say, "Dude, don't underestimate a military man. If he can take a punch and come back swingin', CHEESE IT."
Can you be a former Marine? The only one in my "family" can't seem to decide. So we just say he's a Marine... even though he left like 20 years ago. He's still a force to be reckoned with.😂
How so few people know about this movie absolutely baffles me and hurts my heart. This and Blankman were some of my favorites back as a kid, and definitely some of my favorite to show people.
When my ex-BF put this movie on, years ago, I rolled my eyes (he thought it would be funny because I was a female Marine). Now it is one of my favorite 'silly' movies ever.
I got 2 questions, and hope they get answered here. 1. Can someone tell me what boots major payne is wearing. I grew up in military boots, and wanna get me those kind hes wearing in this scene. 2. Did this movie also made you want to join the military?
They do not because in old cartoons, it's just a pin thats showed triggering it. I watched this at around 10 and figured it was a dummy grenade like Alex Stone 😅
Where was the first part where he inspects his boys and tells them to do various things like drop give me 20 more speaking out of line. And the whole spiel of that which was one of my favorite parts of the movie it wasn't there😢😢
As a retired career soldier, I almost find these mock military movies offensive. There is a total lack of sharp military conduct, an arrogance, an indiscipline never seen in proper military ranks. Oh, and as humour, it falls flat. Pointless.
@@TheCrazykid439 I guess he didnt see the beginning of the movie where it shows Paynes credentials on why he could withstand it. Either way the dudes an idiot
Pretty sure the original superman is white . Thor white. Hawkeye white. Wonderwoman white. Iron man white. Hulk green but white. Spiderman white. You got speedy Gonzalez atleast . Everyone a superhero in movies doesn't matter what color depends on the movie. Weak af comment
Something that people need to understand. The one that was deaf had to learn EVERYTHING by heart. He had not cues or sounds to go off of. That shows just the dedication one member had to put in that the others did not.
This is nostalgically hilarious 😂 we who grew up in the 90's know we had the best movies! When everything wasn't so politically incorrect. We weren't a bunch of fragile wussies and could roast each other and laugh instead of getting "cancelled". I miss those days😢
Fucking hell, if we had social media in the 90s like we do today we would have had cancel culture as well. People were still people in the 90s, we still had the thin skinned, politically correct, family friendly loons. Their opinions just weren't so easily spread but they were somewhat reflected by the news. Need I mention the whole parent pushback on metal music or video games or even just not being religious? Yall fuck outta here with this bullshit
Because the writer decided to make Jason X and the director decided to make Mr. Wrong. Two of the biggest flops in their filmmaking careers, which could've been a Major Payne sequel instead.
"You want sympathy, look in the dictionary between s**t and syphilis. That's where you'll find my sympathy." Has to be one of the funniest things I've ever heard.
Wait wait wait - wait this is not the best if you don’t include the story of the little engine that could, the dance at the club, scene with the little getting in the bed trying to take a pic of him to get him fired, shaving everyone head including the dog, where he admits he like them by saying “maybe I like you “ and “don’t push the maybe… baby”. Like come on. Movie is awesome from the beginning to the end. Abt to watch it.
My idea for a "General Payne" is to have him go to a scared straight program in prison to put his usual strict hardships and humbling mischief on new kids including his own delinquent cousins played by Shawn and Marlon.
