*DEMOLITION MAN* Movie Reaction FIRST TIME WATCH 

Today I learned Americans are very brand loyal to Taco Bell lol 😂😂 FIRST BLOOD: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zPGBfi_fyMY.html LETHAL WEAPONS: ru-vid.com/group/PLQHhQlj8i5drIlwrH9yKm0mHdTbgf7aSo STARSHIP TROOPERS: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HI11Akp_FBc.html

You got the UK Version! haha. The whole "Pizza Hut" joke was specifically for the UK at the time. In the original cut, the restaurant is Taco Bell, but Taco Bell didn't exist in the UK at the time (and still sort of doesn't, in most places) so they thought that the joke wouldn't translate. In the UK cut they changed it to something we'd know (Pizza Hut). However, in some scenes you can still see the Taco bell logo in the background.

This movie has aged remarkably well, and I have to give Wesley Snipes credit for possibly my favorite villainous performance in an action film behind Alan Rickman in Die Hard.

I love it when Stallone says "Hurting people is not a good thing! Well,sometimes it is, but not when it's a bunch of people trying to get something to eat." I say Stallone instead of Spartan because that line was a deliciously self aware poke at his own career as an action movie icon.

In the US, Taco Bell won The Franchise Wars! Which is why it looked dubbed. They actually said Taco Bell, and that's why they had fancy Taco Bell food on their plates. They changed it for the European market because in 1993, Taco Bell was unknown over there at the time. Sucks they felt they had to change it.

I’ve never seen the Pizza Hut version before. Wesley Snipes is Blade. He was also good in “Passenger 57.” A fun action flick that doesn’t get enough love is “The Last Boyscout,” with Bruce Willis. It’s a hoot.

Snipes has some amazing 90s action films. Blade has got to be top of the list. Passenger 57 was a good thrill too. And U.S. Marshals -- but a word of warning on that one, as good as it is, it's a sequel, and to appreciate the characters fully, you should see the first film: The Fugitive, starring Tommy Lee Jones and Harrison Ford.

Sylvester Stallone preceded this with Cliffhanger, then followed this up with The Specialist. Sandra Bullock followed this up with Speed, while Wesley Snipes preceded this with White Men Can't Jump. Arnold Schwarzenegger released Last Action Hero the same year as this

For Snipes watch the 'Blade' trilogy.

"Last Action Hero" with Arnold is the definitive action/satire movie, so you should definitely watch that sooner rather than later, Jen! Also, Blade is a must watch for more Wesley Snipes action! Cheers!

Demolition Man is actually inspired by Aldous Huxley's book, Brave New World, which is often considered to be a companion to George Orwell's 1984 as a warning about society's efforts to create a utopian state ultimately leading to totalitarianism. This is also why Sandra Bullock's character is named Lenina Huxley. Huxley, of course, refers to the last name of author Aldous Huxley. "Lenina Crowne " is the name of the central female character in Brave New World, and her first name is a female variation of Vladimir Lenin's last name.

I still randomly start singing "Garden of the Jolly Green Giant!" when I'm in the frozen vegetable section. It's a banger.

haha, I love Simon Phoenix's line in the opening scene: "I'd lose my head if it wasn't attached"

8:30 Yes! Blade, for example. Also, if you like this, you probably like Judge Dredd (the one from the 90s)

At the time of filming (1993), Jackie Chan was not as well known internationally. People familiar with his work knew him mostly for his Hong Kong action films. His international notoriety coincidentally grew after this movie came out.

I love 90s action flicks. I miss how much I enjoyed being able to just pick a random weekend to go to the movies and see something like this.

If you want to see Stallone in a decidedly non-action role, he was in a really endearing little farce called Oscar back in the early 90s. Really underrated film.

Wesley Snipes flicks to watch: White Men Can't Jump, Blade (trilogy), Drop Zone. He's been in ton of stuff, most of it good.

There are all kinds of movies from all kinds of genres (some which can;t even be classified into a particular genre) that Jen should watch, but I have to admit that she really, REALLY loves and "gets" action movies more than the average RU-vidr.

Wesley Snipes is a stand out in his role as Simon Phoenix. He took a competent Stallone action flick to the next level. I can't think of another villain who laughed so much and took such delight in his murderous work!

One of the many things I like about this reaction channel: 7 secs in and we're into the movie. No intro, no asking for thumbs up and subs, no bs. :)

If you're looking for something action-ish, humour and a little tongue in cheek. I'd suggest Red (2010) Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and more. I think it has all the elements that you'll love.

Snipes: Passenger 57. First movie I ever saw him in and it was great.

That whole Pizza Hut thing was definitely dubbed. It's actually Taco Bell. I've seen this movie dozens of times ever since 1993 and this was the first time I heard them say "Pizza Hut" instead of "Taco Bell".

Best Wesley Snipes movie is Major League. I HIGHLY recommend it. It's 5/5 stars. And runner-up goes to Blade. You would very much like both of those.

I forgot there was 2 different versions of the movie. Most people saw the original “Taco Bell” version. I never even knew a “Pizza Hut” version existed until I started watching RU-vid first time watching videos. Crazy stuff.

Jen singing "The Love Boat" was not on my bingo card but I loved it. And we even got some very cool dance moves for the credits! :) This movie's so much fun.

"Heh, he doesn't know about the sea shells." Also, I'm sure RU-vid loves the idea of the "verbal morality police".

I love the computer going off in the background any time John Spartan says a swear word. Been cracking me up for 30 years. 🤣

You're correct about the Pizza Hut dub. In the original version it was Taco Bell. Other chains like McDonald's and Burger King didn't want any ties to an R-rated film. Taco Bell didn't care and because Pizza Hut and Taco Bell was owned by the same company, they decided to use Pizza Hut in the international cut because Pizza Hut was more well known in other countries.

This one was so entertaining because it dropped so many names verbally and visually and so full of action , plus the whole story was radically wonderful . Sandra and Wesley were great too.

A Stallone movie hardly anyone has seen is “Oscar”. It’s a comedy where he plays a gangster trying to become a banker. Amazing cast.

I just noticed when Dennis Leary said "Food glorious food", they turned that into a song in the movie Ice Age. N he plays the Sabre Tooth Tiger in that movie

Really glad Wesley reconsidered playing Simon Phoenix after initially turning it down. He owned that role.

I love this film. Simon Phoenix maybe one of my favorite bad guys of all time. I was watching this way too much in the 90’s on VHS. So it was funny because for the marketing of the film MTV had a behind the scenes special showing the explosion of the building in the beginning. They legit brew up a building that was planned for demolition. The Pizza Hut thing was for international release of the film. I’m unsure why they don’t keep the Taco Bell as it’s the original franchise. Wesley Snipe is amazing. Some recommendations of films have to be these… Passenger 57 Money Train White Men Can’t Jump Blade Trilogy And New Jack City

13:53 "They just play _commercials?_ That's my worst, worst nightmare. Musically." Yeah. Suddenly, this future is looking kind of dystopian.

Such a fun movie! Easy recommendations are Tango & Cash and Passenger 57 for Stallone and Snipes, and Last Action Hero for satire!

Somebody kept that car in pristine condition underground for who KNOWS how many years, just for John Spartan to steal it and fck it up smh 😂😂😂

I'm a Kentuckian by birth but a committed Canada-phile (the only thing I know about my bio dad was that he was "of French Canadian stock.") So my whole life I've worshipped Canada, especially Barbara Budd and Mary Lou FIndlay hosting "As It Happens" on Canadian short wave radio. May I therefore frickin say, this Canada Day week, Happy Canada Day, not just to Jen, but to all of us on the planet who totally benefit from sharing its surface with Canada. Love from Louisville, Kentucky, where we Stand on Guard For Thee, best neighbors a country ever had.

Hi Jen, if you're interested in more Welsey Snipes. Try the Blade Trilogy. Snipes plays a super hero called Blade who fights evil vampires . Lots of action and fun.

with his maniacal laugh Snipes really does one of the best Joker performances in this movie.

On the theme of historical violence, the fusion blaster thingie from the museum looks to be a mockup of a Heckler & Koch G11, an experimental gun which I recall fired a salvo of three projectiles with each cartridge and was caseless, meaning there was nothing to eject-every part of the ammo goes out the front of the gun. As such it's kind of the closest we've come to the M41a pulse rifle from Aliens. I haven't looked it up recently, but I think it didn't work out because the ammo was brittle, among other things, but that's an easy guess because that's the problem that has plagued caseless ammunition every time it's been tried.

21:56 "How _do_ you?" I think a _lot_ of us were wondering that. I know _I_ was.

Last Action Hero is another action satire, possibly the king of them. Highly recommend. Also, it's peak 90's Arnold, so you know it's a good time.

If you didn't know, Stallone and Schwarzenneger had a movie "tough guy" rivalry back in the day, so you will get a lot of quips about Schwarzenneger in some Stallone movies, and Stallone quips in Schwarzenneger movies.

Jen you’re adorable. I love that you just embrace these movies for what they are, cheese and all.

You know, after seeing Demolition Man so many times over the years, I only just made the connection between the way Wesley Snipes dies at the end, and what he said to Stallone at the beginning when he "forgets" where he put the hostages: "I swear, I'd lose my head if it wasn't attached."

Yay!!! One of my all time favorites. I couldn’t tell you how many times I’ve watched this movie. And I’ll watch again with you! So excited. Thanks for what you do. May your views and likes always be equal.

Don't know if you ever read "Brave New World" by Aldous Huxley, but this movie is BRIMMING with references to that quintessential dystopian novel.

From a scene compilation video, I got this swearing fine count by actor. Stallone 16, Snipes 10 (both 1 credit each), and Sandra Bullock once (half-credit, the film's first fine).

I never knew they had a version of this film where they replaced Taco Bell with Pizza Hut. This is trippy. The three sea shells was a joke, but the guy who came up with it; actually made up how to use them. You take two and stick them together between your palm and fingers to use as tweezers to remove any large bits, then you dump them in the toilet. You then use the third shell to scrape anything left behind, throw it in the loo and flush...

Great reaction Jen! Wesley Snipes is in one called New Jack City that also has Ice T in it along with a few others. Great movie to check out if you can!

I like to imagine DEMOLITION MAN as a prequel to JUDGE DREDD. Both are about destructive law enforcement officers in a future dystopian future.

Supposedly, there are deleted scenes involving Spartan's wife and daughter... they come to see him at the cryo-prison before beginning his sentence. He later is reunited with his daughter, as she's now a member of Edgar Friendly's group. Although these scenes were cut, the actress playing his daughter is supposedly still in the movie.

For Wesley Snipes you may like Blade (1998)(Marvel Vampires) or U.S. Marshalls (1998) (with Tommy Lee Jones playing same character from the Fugitive). For Jackie Chan almost anything but the list must include: Police Story (1985), Drunken Master II (1994), Supercop (1992), and Rumble in the Bronx (1995).

I knew the name from the song by The Police and that Grace Jones did a cover of it. For this movie, that is a new version performed by Sting. Stallone and Snipes were gold in this one Humor, action and plenty of one liners. A lot of foreshadowings in this society are so well displayed (smart and scary). There was toys, video games (Genesis, SNES, PS1, 3D0), an actual tie-in with Taco Bell (collector's cups, posters) as seen in the Stateside version of the film. The international version of the movie (especially Asia) had Pizza Hut tie-ins instead. Demolition Man 2 was is in the works. But not anymore. At least, we still have just the one.

This movie always makes me laugh because for big parts of the movie the "future" is actually a complex in LA that used to be The Spelling Building. It was owned by TV legend Aaron Spelling. I worked there for a long time so it makes me laugh that it's The Future. It's in a bunch of movies and shows but this one really tickles me. This and when the TV version of The Hulk threw down in the lobby. LOL.

Hate to tell you Jen but we already live in that reality. It's not just RU-vid. Our tickets are more or less public canceling of others for virtual glory points. Can't say something or do anything without worry. This movie is ahead of it's time. If you're looking for more Wesley Snipes movies. Marvel's Blade is great. Rated R compared to the MCU.

Yes more Wesley Snipes movies please!! For more action flicks I recommend "Passenger 57" & of course the "Blade" trilogy, If you want to see him as a villain again "New Jack City", If you want fun comedy "White Men Can't Jump", "Money Train"

Good reaction Jen...and a great movie to watch on Sly's birthday today.

They made several props of Stallone in the ice cube. They were hung from the ceiling of Planet Hollywood restaurants, all over the country.

I love how casual that quip was 'civilization as we know it will come to an end!' 'That's a good thing!' that's a *whoooole* mood there :P

Mellow greetings Jen. I do hope you are not having a boggle today. If so, perhaps dinner at Taco Bell will make your day more joy joy. :D

So good! First feature by Italian superstar commercial director (based back then in Toronto btw) Marco Brambilla who has gone on to be recognized in the art world (we met once or twice… nice guy!) Sandra Bullock was totally unknown when the film came out and that alone makes it a milestone. Her persona is already fully formed… it blew our minds! Thank a million for another brilliant reaction. You’re always always always spot on!!!

Last Action Hero is the ultimate action satire movie!!!!

Years ago, when Gurnee Mills megamall opened near where I live, they had a Planet Hollywood... among the memorabilia on display was the mannequin of the "frozen" John Spartan seen during the opening credits.

I guess in Canada it's Pizza Hut. I've always heard they changed it from Taco Bell for outside the US, but I've never seen it. Even Cinebinge's reaction was Taco Bell.

LAST ACTION HERO (1993) would be a great one to do Jen - Schwarzenegger in a really meta, satirical, action romp - very weird and very fun!

Last Action Hero is the best action comedy parody ever!

What else has Wesley Snipes been in???... Uhhhh, BLADE!!! Marvel's Daywalker Vampire Superhero!!! Oh yeah, he's also an expert martial artist!

This movie was in the Golden age of practicall Effects. Big props, Big sets, Big explosion , lots of stutmen running around. Guaranteed lots of injuries for the actors. The good old days. Good action, fun stories.

Love your Reaction! i recommend you a Hilarious Parody of Action Movies > The Other Guys (2010) || Cast || Will Ferrell, Derek Jeter, Mark Wahlberg, Eva Mendes , Samuel L. Jackson, Michael Keaton and Dwayne Johnson

It was fun seeing some of the Pizza Hut version (the obvious dubs reminded me of the old TV dubbed versions of films, where you could still see the swear words, even if they’d been dubbed over!)! I think they did different fast-food chains for different territories and spent quite a bit of money on VFX to change the signage in the movie, but over here in the UK they used the original Taco Bell version (at least on video, which is how I first saw it). I remember wondering what the heck Taco Bell was! As for other 90s actiony sci-fi Stallone pics, Jen, I think I’d recommend Judge Dredd (1995). Fans of the original comic understandably hated it, but I thought it was good fun and you would probably enjoy it just for what it is, without all the fandom baggage and stuff. There’s quite a lot of similarities to Demolition Man in the story, now I come to think of it… hmm…

OK, you have probably already figured out that this is a very clever satire of 1990s action movies, but it is a really good one.

If you're going to watch Stallone, you *have* to watch the Rocky franchise. Not "cheesy action" like this one, but so worth it. The first one won three Oscars, including Best Picture & Best Director.

For action spoofs/homages, I highly recommend Hot Fuzz. It's a blast, and it gets better the more action movies you've seen.

It was Taco Bell when I saw it in the theater in 1993. Since Pizza Hut was more popular outside of the United States, they overdubbed it for international versions. Both restaurant chains were owned by the same company, Pepsico, at the time.

For Wesley Snipes maybe try Blade during Halloween.

I thought(and still think) that the police uniforms in "Demolition Man" appropriately reflected the authoritarianism behind all the happy talk, but Simon Phoenix wiping the floor with the hapless cops reminded me of the 1972 Munich Olympics Hostage Massacre when Germany's attempt to change its negative post WW2 image by being as friendly and non-threatening as possible resulted in Olympic security being completely inadequate to prevent terrorists from sneaking into the Olympic Village and taking hostages whom they eventually killed, and it made meremember the cute, cheerful, theme-park-like uniforms that were designed for the security personnel.

@3:50 "well that looks like a weapon" -Everyone who's seen the movie *maaaaybe it is*

Great reaction, as ever! Saw this at the cinema with my mates when we were all about 17/18 yrs old and still love it now. It's just a really fun action film that does the whole tongue-in-cheek, self-aware thing well. We may or may not have all been proper taken with "Sandy B" haha! N'thing the obvious "Last Action Hero" recommendation as a follow-up sometime. They're both kinda attempted answers to "How do you make an '80s action film and/or star work for these grungy, cynical late-Gen-X'ers nowadays?" which is a daft question in itself but definitely fun movies both

"Civilization as we know it will come to an end!" "That's a good thing." Lol we love you Jen

If you REALLY want to see Stallone do some top notch acting...? "Cop Land" (1997.) Defiantly some of his best work.

12:47 That reminds me of an old Saturday Night Live skit in which a guy was talking about how his male coworkers treat him, and he says "I don't know if I'm being bullied, or if I'm male bonding." BTW the answer is BOTH OF The ABOVE.

You *always* deliver, dear lady :) I am sure that most of us here are united in reckoning that it'd be great to crack a case or a bottle and have a movie night with Jen, who actually gets how action movies work and isn't always asking "Why did he do that?" , "Who is that?", "Violence never solved anything" etc etc etc :D

I love Demolition Man because it becomes more and more true every year.

It's been more likeable considering how we are basically living in this timeline

The bald chap with the glasses was the evil prison governor in Shawshank Redemption 🎩

Love this movie. Phoenix is one of my favorite movie villains and the three seashells never gets old.

Loved the introduction to Sandra Bullock. Yessssssssssssss all the Rambos for sure. If Taco Bell survived the fast food wars then that would be alright with me lol. The guy that Simon had shoot Dr. Cocteau was Jesse Ventura, Ventura was a former WWE wrestler and Governor of Minnesota. He also appeared in Predator and The Running Man with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Spectacular job as always Jen, Mello Greetings : )

As per Expendables(2010) stars: I think the only star there that you're not intimately familiar with might be Dolph Lundgren, in which case I would suggest The Punisher(1989), Showdown in Little Tokyo(1991), and Universal Soldier(1992). And of course, Rocky IV(1985)

This is the Australian version of the film. In all of the other versions, they say Taco Bell and he says Lord knows I could go for a burrito". They even changed the sign from Taco Bell to Pizza Hut, because there was no Taco Bell in Australia at the time.

Great reaction Jen 👍. Another Wesley Snipes movie that you would love is US Marshalls with Tommy Lee Jones and Robert Downey Jr. If you watched The Fugitive Tommy Lee Jones plays the same US Marshall this time hunting Wesley Snipes.

Happy to see you enjoy it Jen. As a teenager of the 80s, I love me some cheese. If you want some action adventure sci-fi (ish) cheese, try The Running Man, with Arnold Schwarzenegger. The cheese is thick in that one. So much fun, and a Stephen King to boot.

Back in the 90s. Stallone Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger owned a restaurant called Planet Hollywood. They had a thing of Stallone frozen like they had in this movie. They had The Terminator in the restaurant as well.

17:09 In the U.S. release of "Demolition Man", the resturaunt was Taco Bell, but in other countries they used Pizza Hut because there wasn't very many countries outside the U.S. that had Taco Bell locations, whereas pizza hut had a much larger presence internationally

A master cat burglar named Hudson Hawk could help you find a SUPER cheesy (and hilarious) golden treasure. Uber-producer Joel Silver pretty much ruled Hollywood in the 80's and 90's, producing an action-comedy called 48 Hrs (with Eddie Murphy) that started the whole "buddy cop" genre, but then followed that up with the first two Predator films, the Lethal Weapon movies, the first two Die Hards, and many more. He tried to do comedy films - Brewster's Millions, Weird Science, Richie Rich, Father's Day, and a Coen Brothers yarn called The Hudsucker Proxy (very much worth a look) - but had more luck with straight action. As a result, he produced a handful of intentionally and/or unintentionally fun/cheesy movies that have become cult action-comedy classics, like Demolition Man. The best of his B-pictures are probably Commando (with Arnold), The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (with Andrew Dice Clay), Road House (with Patrick Swayze), Kiss-Kiss Bang-Bang (with Val Kilmer and Robert Downey Jr), RocknRolla (with Gerard Butler, Idris Elba, and Tom Hardy), The Losers (with Chris Evans, Zoe Saldana, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan), The Nice Guys (with Russell Crowe and Ryan Gosling), and of course, the MUST-SEE semi-masterpiece Hudson Hawk, starring Bruce Willis. You could also throw in Jumpin' Jack Flash with Whoopi Goldberg and/or Action Jackson with Carl Weathers, but while they have their moments, they simply don't reach the same heights of cinematic nerdvana as Demolition Man and Hudson Hawk. Be well Jen Murray, you are an incredibly sensitive person who inspires joy-joy feelings in all those around you.

Supposed to be a film that makes fun of the future, the scary thing is we're heading this way 😄
