The Lost Version of Uncle Buck 

My favorite John Candy movies is Once Upon A Crime, can you do a video about it.

❄

I could have sworn in the opening “Buck’s Apt.” scene, I saw him sleeping next to someone and even look over at the lump in his bed. And when we close up on Buck talking on his phone, I clearly saw the outline of someone sitting/getting up behind him...any info about that?

@@allcapsROB I read a draft that was dated October 1988. In that draft, Chanice was sleeping while Buck was having a phone call with Bob.

Didn’t candy own the maple leafs?

Could say the same about every person..

Except when watching his movies?

We had Farley as well, John Candy is major part of my childhood memories.

I also liked his cartoon camp Candy

@@Thatguy55595 So Ted Bundy was a unique treasure to you? Interesting.

He was a true gem.

Uncle Phil

I have a brother in law and I swear on my life he looks like him and now that my kids have seen the movie they even call him Uncle Buck. He even has an Oldsmobile like him

Bruce Wayne's uncle is Alfred and Samantha's is Uncle Arthur and My three sons uncle Charlie.

Uncle Addy

Thanks for sharing this!

Great to know John Candy was a nice guy. Thanks for sharing.

Great story... now let's hear some dirt on the bad ones.😉

Thanks for sharing!

Only one other person is known to do this. Richard Petty. It is why he is so loved in racing. Takes a special person to take that time to honor the fans.

groundhog day was good, uncle buck isnt.

@@citizenstranger uncle buck was a great film

@@citizenstranger you got it backwards lol groundhog day is one of the worst films ever made

@@citizenstranger Uncle Buck is an amazing movie

@@weegeemike one of the best

He was actually a really good person.

You realise he was a caricature of the single uncle right? Like myself and VERY MUCH like my single uncle.

@@Yeomannn Exactly. He was a good person with many flaws. He wasn't terrible to his girlfriend, he actually cared about their relationship. He just didn't want to become the working stiff she wanted him to be. The kids certainly brought out the best in him, and I think made him mature more. So he probably did take his life more seriously after returning home.

There was nothing terrible about Uncle Buck

Why did you comment this twice lmao

@@Thatguy55595 It’s necessary, buck deserves two comments

@@snusemcgoose1001 I was trolling but yeah you’re right I love buck man

Same!!!

Whenever I think of John Candy...I think of the last still from Uncle Buck, where he's standing at the car waving at Tia. I get chills every single time I see that scene.

Great movie ha ha in the xxx shop and peep show 😂 he is a legend

My dad and I have both said we wish we could've told off my kindergarten teacher that well.

This movie is my childhood too

My cousin and I saw this when it came out at the theater. I think we were about 12 at the time.

Okay must've lived a super normal calm useful life in the old low quality 90s.

The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL. THE GOSPEL (which means the Good News) is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him.

If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell? Acts 16:30-31 KJV ...what must I do to be saved?

[9] If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. [10] If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us. Luke 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

@@jesusisgod2953 Bizzy Bone is that you?

He improvised the poker game in Stripes as well! John Hughes has said that Candy was the only actor he could trust to not even give them a script and to simply let them have free reign with a character. Hughes had the utmost respect for Candy and trusted that Candy could bring a character alive better than he could write. John Huges said, "Nobody he ever worked with came close to John Candy."

I don't think he's gonna see this champ

I used to have my grams in stitches by talking like that. I'm crying laughing right now just reading it. 😂😂😂😂😂.

@@jesusisgod2953: Aw gee whiz, why'd you have to type all of that??? Why do people do this? It is honestly usually a waste of time.

@@shaneculkin7124 Why do people obey God? Because they honour him and care for their fellow man.

@@jesusisgod2953 Bit irrelevant here, though.

I think the movie would’ve been better if they finished the story arc with Culkin’s character becoming popular due to Buck. Maizy got a scene where he stuck up for her quirkiness and shamed the school admin, but Miles only got ones with kids looking like Buck made things worse. The 2nd scene in the subplot with the neighbor is super awkward due to a lack of the middle scene at the grocery store where she says she’s attracted to him despite not understanding why. Without that scene it would’ve been best to shorten the one where they are dancing & she’s creepily throwing herself at him down to just her stopping by and saying “so when are you going to ask me out to lunch?” and his gf shows up right at that moment and storms off. With that scene shortened 2-3 mins I think you can add the 8-10 they cut with the lunches & extended clown scene.

Only the Lonely! Saw it in a theater when it first came out.

Even Space Balls, tbh. Barf could've been a throw-away character but John Candy was just so pleasant and affable that it's one of the best roles in the movie.

He did a movie called Delirious and Summer rental...you may like...liked him in Joe vs the Volcano as well

Splash

@@doctorthirteen5727 I’ve been looking ALL OVER for a DVD of that movie.😫

Especially if John Candy made it

My mom cooked dry eggs and I didn't die.

If you didn't already know John Candy was Canadian by that point, you certainly would now.

Agreed I'd destroy that too

And ketchup

Everybody loves John.

Me too, I was only 9.

I can't stop laughing

cecilia preziose I like the part when John candy tells the elementary school principal “Here’s a quarter” Now go to downtown and have a Rat knaw on that thing in your face “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@StMichael7 another good one..........this movie is full of them

Agreed!!!! Only John could've done it like that!!

"Heehee Heehee, You ever heard of a Ritual Killing? Heehee Heehee."

@@funnyman10912get in your mouse and leave!!!!

“What’s he last name? “ spray?” Lol!!

He was fat, funny, and Canadian. How could that not = kindness.

All around GOOD MAN

I think they should’ve left the longer fight scene with John and the clown were he destroys the mouse car and that line were John candy’s asks the kids complaining about the clown “what are you guys in to ? strippers “?😆

Especially of John Candy!

But also heart warming to know that one day they may be released. Brand new Uncle Buck footage!

It feels like if audiences weren't so fussy about film length we could have so much more.

I wouldn't give up hope. I remember being surprised when Warner Bros released remastered versions of the first 37 Tom and Jerry shorts on blu-ray from their original uncesored film prints. I, and possibly other people, thought they had been lost in the old MGM vault fire. But, it seems like they were saved somewhere. Although Warner Bros hasn't released the next set of shorts yet, which makes me wonder if some of them are still missing.

Let's hope not :-(

Good point but I hope not. Look at the Halloween 6 Producer's Cut. It was said to be lost by Miramax for 19 years, and eventually a negative was discovered after enough looking. Got remastered for Blu, now this pristine HD version it's pretty common in circulation out there. Don't give up hope on it. I just think it's sad that action classics & comedy classics don't get the same TLC on home video that horror does. Would love to see a big anniversary release for Uncle Buck packed with alternate versions and/or bonus content. Even if Universal has to license it out to someone like Shout Factory.

It has occurred where other copies were made and stored elsewhere. Unfortunately they're usually not logged, so it's just luck if they're found. An example is The Wicker Man (1973). The studio behind it (British Lion) hated the Director's Cut so much that they literally destroyed footage they didn't like. Decades later, it turned out the DC had been sent to Roger Corman's company to distribute in the States, and this had played there at the time. British Lion never asked for prints back, and so it stayed with Corman forgotten about. After years of only the BL approved cut on video release anywhere in the world, Corman found the DC and that got released to great reviews!

@@weirdproq I agree, never say never - because Arrow released a special edition Blu-ray of Weird Science (which is also a Universal film) a few years back that has an extended cut with additional footage (all in HD) and they even included the re-edited TV version. :)

SO funny !!!!!

I'm gettin mad Bob!

You know how many big White House’s are on this street!

Sounds like you need a new family..

Why do I think you deliberately meant to say SCAR instead of SCARE

glen lynas I was thinking the same thing but it was probably a typo

EASY THERE...DON'T TAR ALL US UNCLES WITH THE SAME BRUSH !!!

What kind of uncles did you have? I think they offer therapy for that… lol.

That’s right, THE Harry Crumb.

His father, Lionel, didn't have too much foresight though. He entrusted the family firm to the hands of Eliot Dreisen. Last I saw, he was still hanging around at the airport though.

Crumb could get it ✔️ done!

...you find that crazy typewriter....and you'll have your kidnappers...

“My reputation proceeds me, or else I’d be late to all my appointments.”

What's interesting however is that a longer version of The Breakfast Club was released in the mid 1980's and played on local TV affiliates. ( In my case channel 20 WTXX in CT) I do not recall any other Hughes movie to receive that treatment. Also the Criterion Blu Ray did not include this other version, nor any of the extra scenes, instead using inferior rough cut footage. There is obviously a market for these early cuts and hopefully a creative executive might try and release them one day. The early B/W edit of Star Wars alone would likely earn Disney a fortune.

It's common for assembly edits to be several hours long, then the director helps whittle it down to merely way too long, (that's what "director's cut" actually is), then studio people often help refine it further.

I am very defiant in my desire for extra footage

Oh, and he likes kids....there's that

@@stephenbaldassarre2289 assembly cut is different to director's cut

I'd give anything to see Rush again, and will always be grateful I had the chance.

That scene always gets me. It sums John up so much to me. He is waiving with a smile, but behind his smile he like most funny men is very sad, but he always puts on his smile to make others laugh. It’s sad because it looks like he is saying, one day I won’t be here so he is waving good bye forever. Rip John candy.

She's be as fat as her dad if looked just like him how is that super cute? I saw woman similar looking to Napoleon Dynamite but better looking did not look just like him but did look like could be related.

She's the only kind of Candy a fat kid would say no to.

And also from his voluminous work on Second City Television. That's where I first fell in love with Candy.

Rest in peace to John and John. May they both be together in heaven 🙏 they are Legendary!!

They'll never do that because of greed. Why put everything in one DVD set when you can release little by little through out the years and keep reselling the film?

I agree they should’ve left the longer fight scene were John destroys the mouse car and the kids are watching by the window entertained. It would’ve an epic memorable scene and made the movie more famous. I will never understanding they edited it out

THere is missing Footage From Planes Trains and Automobiles? i never knew that my favorite John Candy Movie damn now i have to do some research

Batman forever also had an original cut hitop films talked about it, it sounded pretty good

what the hell are you waiting for?! go watch it! RIGHT NOW!!

You are so lucky to have them all in front of you! Although they are great over and over again.

@@derek-64 I didn't wait, after I finished commenting I went onto HBOMax and watched it. It was as delightful as the review make it out to be.

@@PaceFilmsProductions personally i don't care for streaming services, i have my copy on dvd. But regardless of how you watch it it's still worth it. Excellent movie.

@@derek-64 I like streaming for seeing and/or discovering movies. If I like them then I get the DVD/Blu-ray even if they're available on streaming sites because I want MY own copy to own. My wife made fun of me until a couple of years when her favorite show Dr Who got taken off of netflix.

Me too brother me too.

My sister phoned me, bawling her eyes out.

That's such a good line. You could use that for anything. A t shirt, or when your daughter has a guy over you don't like. Lol get in your mouse and get out of here.

orange whip?

@Cuthbert Bracegirdle You know, I kinda like the Wrigley Field bit.

John candy was in blues brothers and I think his little suit and sunglasses bit in the school scene here was his own kind of reference to that movie which would make sense.

The Criterion blu ray of The Breakfast Club has almost an hour of deleted scenes so it's entirely possible they exist.

Wow thanks for that positive insight on the situation. You broke my heart and got me frustrated all in one sentence.

I remembered when he introduced the show on a lost episode of Saved by the Bell. It was weird seeing Zack Slater and Screech talking to John about his new cartoon.

I used to watch Camp Candy in the early 90s. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Toxic Crusaders and Ghost Writer on Saturday mornings
