    Great reaction ladies ...This was another hilarious spoof comedy by the ZAZ team...Jerry Zucker, Jim Abraham & David Zucker and Val Kilmer's big screen debut (and yes that is his actual singing voice). Glad that you both enjoyed it. Also the British actor playing Deja-Vu (Jim Carter) would later be more well known worldwide for playing Mr. Carson, the head butler on the award winning drama series 'Downton Abby'.

    If you're looking for another ZAZ spoof movie, then check out their very first big screen outing, The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977) - it spoofs Bruce Lee's: Enter The Dragon and television itself in general, including parodies of commercials too....also unlike their other films, which are mostly rated PG-13, this one is a hard R, but it is still hilariously funny though.

    Here are a couple of genres/movies they are spoofing: 1. Elvis concerts/movies. In fact the name Nick Rivers is a take on Elvis' character Deke Rivers in the movie "Loving You." 2. James Bond/Spy movies - the car crushing scene is taken directly from a similar scene in "Goldfinger." 3. WW2 movies such as Casablanca (dialogue during the parachute scene), the Great Escape (motorcycle scene just like Steve McQueen), Dirty Dozen, etc. 4. 60's beach movies such as Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello, etc. 5. Indiana Jones with the truck fight scene. There are plenty of other smaller nods to things, but these are the most obvious ones. Glad you enjoyed it.

    The skeet surfing joke came up while the filmmakers were doing interviews for Airplane!. At one point, they got bored answering the same questions all the time. So they invented this game where they would say the silliest thing in the most serious way to the point that it would be taken at face value and printed in the newspaper. When asked, "What did you do during your teenage years in Milwaukee?", they would talk about skeet surfing.

    After Airplane!, the filmmakers couldn't decide which genre they'd spoof next between WWII spy thrillers or Elvis' musicals so they decided to combine both! Except for The Great Escape, the most famous movies that are spoofed are not related to Elvis or WWII: Goldfinger (the man crushed in the car), The Blue Lagoon (Hillary and Nigel flashbacks), Jaws (the cow attack), the tv series Bonanza (the underwater saloon fight), the Wizard of Oz (the final goodbye). Some references are honestly more obscure, like 1944's The Conspirators (Hillary fleeing to a restaurant after witnessing the shooting of a colleague in an alley and taking refuge at the table of a stranger. A blind man in the street selling goods from a case hanging from his neck.)

    During the 70's, war movies were particularly popular. Many of them had carried over from the previous decades. You had black & white war themed shows as reruns, but you also had shows like CPO Sharkey and Black Sheep Squadron. So, war films were pretty familiar to an 80's audience. Top Secret isn't spoofing any film in particular, but it is poking fun at the WWII genre. The odd thing is, rather than being set in World War times, it's set in East Germany, during the time of the Iron Curtain. It's pretty contemporary for the time, and even mentions the Carter Administration. It always brings me joy, when someone actually gets the Pinto joke. In another decade, I'm not sure anyone will understand the context of that scene. This is one of my favorite films. It is so well crafted. When you think about the Swedish bookstore scene and the underwater fight, they really went all out on the production. It has a very good balance of story & a sheer number of sight gags. Yet, the way everything is taking everything so seriously, it's more than just a comedic skit movie.

    This is a spoof of cold-war spy movies combined with Elvis movies. Val was told the movie was sort of an Elvis movie and he showed up to his audition dressed as Elvis. That was his voice doing the singing. in the 70s and 80s, East Germany's women were dominating the Wrecking Ball in the Olympics. It was then discovered the women were using steroids. In the late 70s, there was a recall of Pintos because of a design defect. They could catch fire with rear impacts. They made a plaster cast of Peter Cushing's face to create his eye prosthetic. This same plaster cast was used decades later to scan in his face to make the digital Grand Moff Tarkin for Star Wars: Rogue One.

    Yes, it's a shame. I remember that, the second time I saw this movie, back in '84, I was the lone spectator in the theater. (Although, on the bright side, I sat in multiple seats and reacted as wildly to the jokes as I cared to!) 😉

    This movie is so dense with jokes it's easy to miss some. At one point the professor talks about his work on desalinization and asks do you know what that would mean for the poor nations of the world. Nick says Wow - they would never run out of salt!

    You asked which movie this movie is spoofing. It is not a single movie, or even a single genre. Elvis Presley made several movies in the 1960s where he would break out into song several times during the show. This movie spoofs those movies. It also spoofs 1960s spy movies. ZAZ (Zucker, Abrams, and Zucker, the directors of this movie) did a kind of mashup where they combined those two genres and then spoofed them both.

    "My uncle was born in America." "Oh, really?" "But he was one of the lucky ones. He managed to escape in a balloon during the Jimmy Carter presidency." Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Val Kilmar. Director Cameos Fact: Directors Jim Abrahams, David Zucker, and Jerry Zucker appear as the German soldiers who show up at the door of the prop room to arrest Nick (Val Kilmer). Final Bow Fact: Peter Cushing, who began his screen career in the old Hollywood of the late 1930s, makes his final appearance in an American production. He made three more British films before passing in 1994. Music Enthusiast Fact: The songs that Val Kilmer sings in the film are actually performed by Val Kilmer himself and were featured on the film's soundtrack released in 1984 under Kilmer's character's name Nick Rivers. When Nick Rivers is in jail, a head shot of Cher can be clearly seen on the wall of the cell several times. Val Kilmer was dating Cher at the time. The Bookstore Scene Fact: The scene where Hillary (Lucy Gutteridge) and Nick (Val Kilmer) go into the Swedish bookstore was staged, shot, and then run backward for a "unique" sound. If you record the scene and play it backward, you will find all of the dialogue to be exactly what is shown in the subtitles except for the title of the book. "Europe On Five Quaaludes A Day" (which I can't confirm as real) is what Hillary asked for. A forward-playing version of the Swedish bookstore scene can be found on the DVD. The sight gag of Peter Cushing and the magnifying glass is a parody of a similar shot of Cushing from Terence Fisher's The Curse of Frankenstein (1957). The prosthetic that Peter Cushing wore in the bookshop scene involved the making of a cast of his face to fit it to. This same cast was used 30 years later by ILM to build a CGI model of his face for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (2016).

    Great movie, actually watched it as a teenager back in the 80's... These sort of comedies are so awesome... I think the only reason we don't see more like these is because studios are afraid of backlash from all the current folks who get offended by everything these days... There have been a few flicks now and then, but not on the same level as this one or movies like the Airplane movies, etc... Loved laughing with ya'll as I watched you both watch this movie... Brings back good memories and that's always boosted when watching with others...

    One of the best comedies of all time, and one of my favorites. So many iconic scenes and lines. I highly suggest watching the Swedish book store scene a couple times, must have been wild to try and film. The modern day spirit animal to this film in my mind would have to be Tropic Thunder. Some scenes spoof some early bond films, Octopussy comes to mind (opening train scene). Another funny note, the in movie dubbing often has nothing to do with the actual German and French being spoken so if you speak either it's often an entirely new layer of comedy. Fans of WWII and post WWII history, movies and documentaries all appreciate this movie as it usually pulls the right strings.
