I love how both Tia and Bug said "shit" at the same time when the engine backfired, AND when Buck looks at Maisy like, "You're six years old, how do you know this stuff?"
As someone who works in production, this scene was most likely filmed around 2am. Now imagine being in the freezing cold, in the middle of the woods and trying to be funny. Just goes to show how brilliant John Candy was.
I did not think I would turn into uncle Buck when I saw this as a little kid, but thirty plus years later….. My bros kids call me Uncle Chuck, and I channel my inner John Candy.
id like to think that car backfires on purpose not only to announce his presence/departure...but also add a sense of macabre to the air much like this scene what with the fog fueled stride of his...goosepimply
Yeah, the banging backfire of that car is not because there's anything wrong with the car, it's because Buck deliberately made it do that so he could use it in certain situations to get attention
One of the greatest movies of the past 30-40 years and John Candy was one of the comedic greats. This film is still great in 2022 and has gotten better with age. Thank you for the laughs, Mr Candy.
I love that gunshot sound the car makes 😂 that’s so funny 😂. For sure needs a tune up. Uncle Buck for sure called every thing about how some people can be? He was spot on. Still is.
Unfortunately in this day age when the entertainment industry stays on life support and hasn't learned a dam thing from there past catastrophic mistakes will never again get rare classic gem 💎 s like this again that we can still watch a million times in row when it comes on and still remember word for word just like planes trains and automobiles these timeless masterpieces will never and I mean never be duplicated on this masterpiece level again in the greatest golden era of entertainment in history no matter how many times they try and how more 4 k it looks in another failed remake try just leave these rare gem 💎 s alone and let them continue to show the magic ✨ the way they were supposed to
2:54 Just love Uncle Buck’s look of “let’s see how long this lesson will last for.” And then very next moment he and Tia kiss and he gives like a heaving sigh look of I give up.
I saw this at the drive in as a kid. When i was a teenager, whenever i heard Echo and the Bunnymen, i thought of the kids the oldest daughter hung out with.
I like Tom Hanks, but John Candy is even better I think. I don't know for sure if someone now being deceased makes them seem even legendary or not, but maybe that does have a small part on why John Candy shines even a bit brighter than Hanks
She realizes by the end of this movie that Buck was only looking out for her all along. Buck wasn't around for a long time, but I think now that that has to do with the mother character not liking him and not that Buck didn't care about his family
