James Brolin did a screen test for a potential James Bond movie around 1983. I believe the footage may be on KZread... The producers changed their mind and asked Roger Moore to come back for one last 007 movie since another production company was making Never Say Never starring Sean Connery...

So just an FYI, the portion when he's at that mall at the beginning of the movie is the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica, CA. Great guess! I never knew it in this motif, but I did know it in the 90s. Different stores and aesthetics, but the bones were the same. I'm going to guess that his house was filmed in the Beverly Hills area, hence the pristine lawns. IDK if you'll realize this later in the movie (barely started watching your video), but Dottie is the same lady that does the voice of Tommy Pickles in 'Rugrats'.

I've always enjoyed how people around Pee-wee just love him to death and love being part of his hijinks (like the next door neighbor barely closing his window before Pee-wee's sprinkler gets him - after Pee-wee kindly warns him). Pee-wee is endlessly cheerful and it rubs off on everyone. Such a nice world to be part of. All except for his few enemies, of course.

Or maybe he had some reason to kill someone--not a legal justification, but a reason, and he's got this temper problem, just like he said. In any case, the joke is that Pee-wee is so childish that he doesn't realize this. Or does he, on some level?

Though "armed and dangerous" doesn't mean that the person was a murderer. Only that they are armed and dangerous. So the report could still be right that he is armed and dangerous, but that he was arrested for taking the tags off of the mattress. I mean taking the tags off of a mattress would not prevent someone from getting a gun.

I have a connection to this film. I went college with Mark Holton who played Francis. When I first saw the scene with Francis in the tub, I doubled over with laughter because I saw him play like that in the Green Room many times!

Glad that another person is reacting to this, just because people seeing the Large Marge scene for the first time is always priceless. The only reason you MIGHT see it coming is when you know Tim Burton and what he's capable of. And your response to it was "... Huh." *I don't why that cracks me up more, but it does.*

Thanks for watching this! First time seeing someone react to Pee Wee, he is a childhood favorite of most people of my generation. His tv show was absolutely wonderful, I remember seeing this movie in the theater when it came out and have been quoting it ever since! ✌

I saw Pee-wee do his stand up act in Minneapolis at Dudley Riggs' Brave New Workshop in around 1982, 3 years before this movie came out. It was essentially the core of his Pee-wee's Playhouse TV show. Miss Yvonne was there and I think Captain Carl was there, too (played by Phil Hartman). It was the best show I had been to up until that time. Constant laughs. Very engaged audience. We even got a couple mini Tootsie Rolls because Pee-wee hurled them •hard• throughout the audience at one point, and we were near the back of the room. And Paul Reubens did this show at least three times that night. Amazing energy.

Rest In Peace Paul Reubens. ❤

Peewee is like an eight year old boy's version of adulthood lol. It always spoke to us like the adult that absolutely got us when I was a kid. Bonus: Elvira-mistress of the dark, is the red head in the bar scene. One of the few times you'll see her on film in her natural hair color instead of her classic black wig.

Large Marge scared the ever-loving crap out of me as a kid. My parents never took me to the movies so I didn't see this until it replayed on TV, so I was probably 7-8? I watched Pee-Wee's Playhouse religiously back then, lol.

I was watching my granddaughter and grandson about ten years ago and some of their friends came over to hang out. I had a living room full of noisy, rambunctious 6 to 10 year old kids. I turned on Pee Wee's Big Adventure and sat back and relaxed. The kids were mesmerized within minutes. Paul Reubens plays a non Pee Wee character in Mystery Men. It also stars Ben Stiller, William H. Macy, Hank Azaria, Greg Kinnear, Janeane Garofalo, and others.

I was deployed to the middle east in 1990 for the first Gulf War. We had months in the desert before the actual war and our only diversion was a tent with a TV and VCR. This movie was one of about a dozen tapes that we had and it played almost on.a loop... you could pop in anytime and it was in progress. We could all quote most every line verbatim from sheer repetition, yet we never tired of it. This might be the first time that I saw it since '91, but I still remembered everything.

one of Paul Rueben's best roles as Amilyn in the movie "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" from 1992. Not to be confused with the tv series. His post credit scene in that movie is hilarious.

Wow this was a surprise! This movie was a classic in our house growing up. We would quote it all the time, but I almost never hear anyone mention it. Glad you enjoyed it.

I was in 5th grade when this movie came out. I remember some of my classmates doing their impression of Pee Wee. I had no idea what they were doing. I saw it later. It's a classic. Very quotable.

One of the more pleasant surprises I had in 1985. I was taken here blind by a girlfriend who purchased the tickets ahead of time because she knew I didn't want to see it (I didn't care for Pee Wee - more for his reputation, I didn't think I'd like it). I'm really glad she took me and I started going into movies with more of an open mind.

I've always found great was that Paul Rubens, Cassandra Peterson and Phil Hartman were part of the Groundlings at the same time. The icons of Elvira and Pee-Wee with realized about the same time. If you didn''t notice, that was Cassandra in the biker bar.

After this movie came out and for basically the rest of the 80's, as far as kids were concerned, the song "Tequila" was called "The Pee Wee Herman". Adults whenever hearing the song referred to as that would always try to correct us, "That song has been around long before Pee Wee Herman! It's called _Tequila._ " And the kids would always respond like, "Whatever, it's still the Pee Wee Herman..."

I saw this in theaters when it came out. Being a teen in the 80's was great.

Still one of my favourite movies. I can still recite this word for word, scene by scene ;)

I made my father take me to this when it came out. I was fan of Pee Wee's HBO Special.. which was a little more adult than the stuff he'd do later on, but it was absurd and hilarious. It's kind of a spoof on shows like Captain Kangaroo, Bozo The Clown and all the other kid shows of the 50s and 60s. Surprisingly, my father liked it almost as much as I did. Maybe because that was his childhood. That scene where Pee Wee dances became iconic. They even took that entire scene and made a music video out of it. A few months later there was a rap song called "Pee Wee's Dance" by a NYC rapper named Joe Ski Love.. his music video had the actor that played Francis as well as a young Ice-T. The song itself has been sampled MANY times by rappers, singers, house music producers and even 2Pac.

I'm so happy you reacted to this one! I was introduced to Pee-wee's Big Adventure when I was around 7-8 and it was playing when I went to go visit my grandma one Friday night. It's probably one of my favorite comedies of all-time.

Elvira, Reubens' BFF, can be seen twice in this movie. When PW walks into the magic shop, there is a photo of her on the wall at the entrance. The woman, in the biker bar, is played by Cassandra Peterson (Elvira).

Fun Fact: the pink poodle in the bike basket at the end was Precious in Silence Of The Lambs

So Pee Wee had a screening tour of this movie a few years back and one of the stops was my city which is also San Antonio, home of the Alamo. After the movie he talked about the movie and filming and all that. The lady in the bar that says “I say you let me have him” is Elvira. Also the founders of the Alamo took him to the basement after the movie went big. Everyone started to ask if the Alamo had a basement while on the tour. One of my favorite movies ever.

Really enjoyed your reaction. It was fun watching you cracking up. We all did alot of the silly kid things they did in the movie, that's part of what makes it so funny 😁

Had no expectations when I saw this in theaters as a 10 year old, walked out loving it, and still love the movie to this day. Loved Pee Wee's Playhouse as well.

I can definitely say that as a kid, the opening Rube Goldberg breakfast machine was the coolest thing ever lol! Also, I always had to look away during the Large Marge scene. It was terrifying - it was basically my Skinamarink

Fun Fact: Paul Reubens played The Penguin's father in both Tim Burton's Batman Returns and the tv series Gotham. Paul also played a vampire with the funniest and longest death scene in movie history the Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie, stay for the end credits to see him finally die. In Batman Returns Penguin's mother was played by the actress playing Simone with the "big but".

The outdoor mall where the bike gets stolen was the Santa Monica 3rd Street Promenade. The same developer made a clone of it in Burbank too. And Pee-Wee’s house is in Alhambra, about 10 mins South of Pasadena. Structurally, it looks exactly me same.

This movie taught me how to sneak into places. All you need to simply walk in either as part of group or walk in like you belong in there too. Walk in/join group, calm and relaxed not nervous.

Paul Reuben also has a good character in the OG Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie. I'd love to see a reaction to that movie.

I saw this on VHS when it came out and the large Marge scene had me rolling on the ground, literally. We played it over and over for 30 minutes.

I was born in 1980 and this was a childhood favorite, of course. Large Marge, the Tequila dance, the pet store evacuation, and "I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel." are the parts that stuck in my head. On rewatching this with you, I've realized... the homoeroticism between Pee-Wee and Mickey went straight over my *conscious* head, but straight into my subconscious. I... may have just explained some things about myself.

*PEE-WEE* Brought the kid out *Shanelle* as she reminisced & shared childhood stories...lol

I loved this film as a child and it made me terrified of clowns. My mom also has a video of me when I was 3 brushing my teeth and growling at the mirror like he does.

Finally one of my favorite reactors does Pee Wee's Big Adventure! Legitimately one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.

One of Paul Reubens' first roles was a small part as a costumed arcade employee in the movie Midnight Madness. It's a teen comedy based around a scavenger hunt, and it's Michael J Fox's film debut. Edit to add: Reubens was also in one of Cheech & Chong's early movies (I think it was their first), doing an early version of Pee-Wee as his standup routine.

I'm pretty sure the the original conception for Pee-Wee was as the host of a children's television show, an adult parody of 50s and 60s children's television. He had a special on HBO in the 80s along those lines, and after this movie became a smash hit he actually got a children's Saturday morning show, which was a copy of his stage show, except actually for children this time.

PEE WEE IS AWESOME…..for someone whose been to the Alamo & taught about it, I always bring up the basement in the Alamo & still get chuckles out of it 😂😂😂😂😂

I saw this as a kid when it came out. To this day (43 years old) I've remembered that the Alamo does not have a basement. 😊

The lady biker ("I say you give him to me!") was Cassandra Peterson, AKA Elvira

I was born after the movie came out, but Pee-wee was still huge among kids my age, at least where I lived. We made lots of references to it and had lots of quotes from it, as well. We still do as adults in our mid-30s.

That was James Brolin playing Peewee on the big screen. He is married to Barbra Striesand and is the father of Josh Brolin. His squeeze in the film was Morgan Farichild, who was comically famous for being the epitomy of a beautiful woman back in the 80s. One big joke about her was John Lovitz' "liar guy" character who was fond of name dropping her in an obvious lie as his wife. The line always ended with him saying "... and my wife Morgan Fairchild. Yeah, that's the ticket, Morgan Fairchild."

R.I.P. PEE WEE HERMAN 😭😭😭😭😭😭

You're insightful, entertaining and completely relatable. I'm older...pee wee was in my 30's but I thought it was funny as hell. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Bobcat Goldthwait had a hilarious standup bit about how he was in the film "Blow", and how he, Johnny Depp, and Paul Reubens were all on probation, and the conversation went like this: Depp: "So what did you do?" Goldthwait: "I set my chair on fire on the Tonight Show. You trashed your hotel room, right?" Depp: "The room made the first move!" Depp and Goldthwait:"...um, yeah, anyway..."

The shopping location where Pee Wee loses his bike is the 3rd Street Promenade in Santa Monica CA. I like to think the Pee Wee character is a little kid's idea of what they would be like as an adult.

Pee Wee's Playhouse was really popular in the 80's (especially among fellow smokers...) because it was just so bizarre. All the characters like Captain Carl (Phil Hartman), Jambi the Genie, Cowboy Curtis (Laurence Fishburne), Miss Yvonne, Johnny (Jimmy Smits), Rhonda ( Sandra Berhard) and dozens more, just went with the show''s weirdness. When Rubin got into trouble at a peepshow, his career took a huge nosedive but has sorta rehabilitated himself.

There’s two sequels Big Top Pee Wee & Pee Wee Herman’s Big Holiday, which are worth checking out. Paul Ruben has a huge collection of kitch items, toys etc; some of which he brought on to an episode of Conan.

My favorite gag is when Pee Wee and the fugitive fool the policeman by posing as a married couple. After the policeman lets them go, Pee Wee still pretends to be the wife.

I was born in 1977 and saw this in the theater as a child. It was probably the weirdest movie I had seen at the time (nope- checked and Dune came out the year before). I remember being terrified by the Large Marge jump scare. You didn't even look surprised...

The fact they got James Brolin and Morgan Fairchild in a in-film biopic on Pee Wee’s life is amazing!

Trying to think of my favorite all time line from this film, I'm settling on, "There was a sound like a garbage truck, dropped off the Empire State Building...." I was a very goofy Gen-X high school sophomore when Pee Wee hit theaters, all about Jim Henson and Terry Gilliam and Buckaroo Banzai. I craved whimsy in my movies and Pee Wee "laid it on with a trowel", to borrow an expression of Nicholas Meyer's. Some of us had already seen the cable TV special based on his nightclub act, which, after the success of the movie, became the basis of the Pee Wee's Playhouse television show. To this day, whenever a friend of a certain age reports visiting the Alamo, or even San Antonio, generally, I'll always ask them if they made it to the basement, and they always get the joke.

I was in my 20s when this came out. Pee Wee's Playhouse was on TV in those days, and it was so surreal that college students famously got stoned to watch it. It was probably watched by more stoned students than kids. If you liked the movie, look up the TV show.

The best part of this movie is at the end when the real peewee playing the hotel desk clerk is mouthing the lines, before he says his own line. GENIUS HUMOUR. to this day whenever I meet some one named Andy, in my head I pronounce it in pee wees voice as AANNDYY!!!. one of my favourite movies of all time. So glad you reacted to it.👍

Sliding down the fire pole and changing costume is right out of the old Batman TV show.

I was just asking my dad if he remembered the first time we saw Pee Wees Big Adventure. I have a very vivid memory of my first time seeing it when I was 7 yrs old. There was a very classic, majestic, old school single screen theater downtown of where I live. I saw many classics there including this one. I miss that kind of special theater going experience very much.

The dinosaur scenes were filmed at Cabazon Dinosaurs off I-10 near Palm Springs. The rodeo scenes were filmed at LA County Fairgrounds in Pomona CA. Great movie my daughter's loved this movie growing up.

Easily one of my favorite childhood films. Thank you so much for being one of my favorite reactors to finally check out this light hearted adventure....and Shanelle: Be sure to tell em Large Marge sent ya!!!! HAHAHAHA

Chucks bike o rama was at the old Santa Monica 3rd street promenade

This was a delight. For the film nerds, I would really love to do this film as a double feature alongside De Sica's classic "Bicycle Thieves."
