"What's the word for violating a grave in English?" - I think you're thinking of the word "Desecrating".
Yeah, "violating" sounds like you're humping the grave.
Grave-robbing?
Thank you. Best I could think of was grave-robbing, but I knew there had to be a better word.
I thought the answer was Tuesday nights
More specifically desecrating a corpse.
The grandpa is the same guy who played Captain von Trapp in Sound of Music.
Christopher Plummer has been around for a long time and been in a lot of movies. Most recently he was the patriarch in "Knives Out" but yeah he's most famous for "Sound of Music".
Wow, Mary! Super impressed you were able to recognize a 40-ish years older, Christopher Plummer!
Well done!
RIP Christopher Plummer (2-5-2021)

And Klingon General Chang in Star Trek: The Undiscovered County
A great treasure hunt movie is Romancing the Stone (1984). It has everything you want in a movie. Action, adventure, romance, comedy, etc... You name it, it has it.
I want two tentatively gay men alone on a mountain in Wyoming in the 1960s. Does Romancing the Stone have that? I THINK NOT!
@Mozdk1 it does have a young Kurt Douglas in the Jungle but the romance is hetronormitve
100% agree! Please react to this movie.
@@joehall1945Michael Douglas. Kirk Douglas, was his father. :)
Nicolas Cage WAS in major debt after the housing market crash and after making very extreme and weird purchases (He bought a castle, bought a haunted mansion, a dinosaur skull, etc). He never actually declared bankruptcy, and just took any movie that was willing to pay him enough, it's why in the 2000's he was in so many terrible straight to DVD movies. But he's paid off that debt now; he's proud of the fact that he never went bankrupt, worked hard and repaid all his debts. He became a bit of a joke in Hollywood for a time because of that debt and the work he had to do to pay it off, but I'd say his career is on a resurgence now that he can pick more interesting/better films again.
I think one of those straight-to-DVD titles actually did well enough on DVD that it was later released in theaters. One of only a handful of movies to ever get shown in theaters “backwards,” that is, home video first, and theaters later.
Mary, The sequel is excellent also.A huge YES to Raising Arizona!!
Raising Arizona is Cage's best movie imo! 🤣😂🤣
Or it might be because I can empathize with John Goodman since I grew up with textured ceilings! 😂🤣😂🤣
As a Gen-X Navy veteran, I am surprised that you not only knew what the Declaration of Independence is, but reacted with respect. This American thanks you, dear lady.
Here in the civilized countries we have this thing called proper education.
@@FM.Sandels the declaration of Independence is proper education in other countries? I wouldn’t expect that.
@@matthewdevine8275 maybe you didn’t expect that because you didn’t benefit from other countries education? 🤔
Thank you for your service! Sir.
The U.S. as well, though republicans keep trying to destroy it.
I guess I would've assumed that maybe you already had, but If you liked this and haven't, you should see "The DaVinci Code" trilogy, or at least just the original alone. I haven't figured out why there are barely any reactions to it. Unless everyone's just already seen it. If you have absolutely no idea what I'm even talking about. They were a series of books written by Dan Brown, centered around the character of Robert Langdon, and "The DaVinci Code" became a world wide phenomenon, so of course there was a Movie made, then two more movies from the series, "Angels and Demons" and "Inferno". I think there's actually 7 books in the series. Anyways, that's what set off this historical based fiction/mystery thing, and these National Treasure movies were really just exploiting the hype, but if you really haven't seen "The DaVinci Code", you really should. Those that read the book, weren't as satisfied with the movie, but what are you going to do. It's almost always that way! Very rare that the movie is as good as the book, and not to get into my whole long spiel about it, but Novel writing and screenwriting are really two different art forms, both with their separate pros and cons. If you like this style of movie though, it is basically the movie that created the mold.
I could be totally wrong, but there are quite a few really good movies that few, if any, reactors include. I think it's because some films get constantly copyright-blocked.
@@kpiperjr I'm sure you're probably right, but sometimes I'm also just surprised at some things that just fall through the cracks, and people just don't know, when you'd definitely think they do. Even with the ones that have copyright issues, some of them still get through, but what do I know.
Nah, the Dicinci Code stinks.
I had no idea the Da Vinci Code was a trilogy i thought it ended at angels and demons
For a treasure hunt type movie I recommend Sneakers (1992). It is not exactly a treasure hunt, but it has that kind of vibe.
12:10 did i just hear a European say they wanted to visit America for all the history? I need to sit down
Our history may not go back as far as Europe or Asia, but we do have one.
US history is short compared to a lot of European countries but it has been very influential.
We've packed a *_lot_* of history into the past 300 years. Our history books are just as thick as any European country.
They say an American is a person to whom 100 miles is NOTHING, but 100 YEARS is an eternity.
To a European, 100 years is YESTERDAY, but 100 miles is an unfathomable distance...
I'm surprised Con Air wasn't higher on the poll
Can she handle the accent and the blowing hair scene?
Have you watched The Da Vinci Code, Angels and Demons, and Inferno? Very good puzzle/adventure movies.
Mary: Yay, retirement!
This is the most trust lawyer thing a trust lawyer could say at that moment.
The good thing about these kinds of movies is you'll be able to show them to your son and watch it with him together.
Every kid should grow up watching the national treasure movies 👍
You know the second National Treasure movie is just as good as the first.
A clue? It was Colonel Mustard in the library with the candle stick ;-)
I think I saw that story too. Some guy who snuck into all kinds of concerts, the Super Bowl, World Series, etc just by being confident and acting like he belonged.
And, of course, there’s the DiCaprio/Hanks film, Catch Me If You Can. Aware of the issues some have with the source material, but still an entertaining film on the surface.
Silence Dogood was one of the pen names used by Benjamin Franklin. Franklin would usually use the persona of Silence Dogood, supposedly a late 18th century, New England housewife to absolutely roast situations and establishments of the time.
Little missed detail the Doogood letters was to his brothers' paper that he left as a runaway slave. He used the false name to avoid being reenslaved
@@charlesmaurer6214 “enslaved?” He was apprenticed at his brother’s newspaper/print shop. That may have (in some cases) entailed some indentured servitude, but I’m not sure I would call it slavery.
16:33 In most US jurisdictions private citizens can buy TASERS without any restriction. (no registration, permit or training required).
Being shocked with a TASER in order to carry only applies to some people that use them for a job. Or people that live in the handful of states that restrict their ownership.
@30:15 In English this is "desecration of a grave." As far as the crime, some states instead call it "Abuse of a Corpse" or "Mishandling of Human Remains."
@@user-vt6dp1ds5y ok. In 1830s England you are definitely correct.
@@user-vt6dp1ds5y I believe grave robbing would be called the layman's term for desecration
A Nick Cage movie. I guess this means my campaign to have someone do a reaction to Lord of War has just expanded to include this one. Other than it being a great movie the opening credits are so god damn good, it deserves a watch for that alone!
Absolutely check out Raising Arizona. As you may or may not have seen, it's a comedy - which you always say you like to get more recommendations of - and a Coen brothers film, which if I remember correctly you've already enjoyed Fargo, The Big Lebowski, and No Country for Old Men. I think you'd really enjoy it. Have a great day.
This movie was very entertaining when it came out and really hooks you with the hunt and even ties in some history along the way. Another treasure hunt themed movie that is more of a mystery drama but equally as good is, "The Da Vinci Code" with Tom Hanks.
Glad to see Belgium's National Treasure in action .
Such a goofy movie but it’s a childhood favorite for a lot of us
Great movie and great voice :) .National Treasure is a great franchise that made two great movies in a roll which is really hard to do. Sean Bean performance as the bad guy is awesome in this movie and of course all the good gang are awesome as well. Nick Cage has some other great movies like Con Air, Face Off ,The Sorcerer apprentice. Snake Eyes and 8mm which is quite a shocking movie.
Other great adventure movies are The Count Of Monte Cristo 2002 and Prince Of Persia 2010. A great father and son movie is Frequency 2000.
See, this is why I like Mary's reactions: Within just a few minutes, she: 1) even though she didn't recognise Christopher Plummer she did recognise his voice by connecting it with "The Sound of Music", 2) she makes a references to that infamous song by Smokie which I guess is getting obscure now, 3) "Is Sean Bean dying already?" :D Btw., back then my search engine of choice was Alta Vista but I do remember using Yahoo from time to time. And that map joke: LOL :D :D :D Great reaction, Mary!
Totally fun movie-- some of the coolest writers in Hollywood worked for years to get all the fun tricks and clues and reveals worked out. The sequel is also great fun.
Fun fact Ben Franklin was a runaway slave and the doogood letters was to his former owner, his brother and newspaper owner in NYC. He used the false name to avoid recapture while establishing his own paper in PA. He did reconcile later. Franklin's autobiography is a great read but it does disapoint as it ends around the revolution and little of the later life is included.
Mary! Your next assignment is to watch the greatest treasure hunt of all time:
"The Da Vinci Code" - starring Tom Hanks, Audrey Tautou and Ian McKellen
Don't even joke.
@@cameraman502 ... I'm not joking. I'm giving my opinion on a film. It's OK if you don't agree with it.
The sequel and the Divinci Code are also great puzzle solving adventures!
1:33 Very good! That's Christopher Plummer, from The Sound of Music (and hundreds of other roles)
The Rock (1996) is another great Nicolas Cage action movie. His only Oscar is from Leaving Las Vegas (1995). It's a tough movie to watch, emotionally, but well worth it.
General Chang from Star Trek VI.
@@gawainethefirst Absolutely!
The Da Vinci Code is another kind of treasure hunt-y, trail of coded clues type of movie
This was my first NC movie. Such a good actor. The second one is good too. I still have it on VHS 📼
"Fun" is the perfect word to describe this movie. Start to finish it puts a smile on your face. As others have said, The DaVinci Code movies are excellent puzzle-solving flicks, although they are much darker in nature. If you watch Raising Arizona, you need to know beforehand that it is a Cohen brothers (O Brother Where Art Thou, Fargo, etc.) movie and very wacky/off the wall. It's definitely funny.
Part two is pretty good too
The Grandpa is Christopher Plummer, who played capt VonTrapp in the Sound of Music! thanks for watching these films!!!! 😃😃😃
Even though this movie is a twist on American history, I have very fond memories of my history teachers having this movie play during classes through the years.
Arizona is a high mark for Cage. Kick ass is a fun action movie & Nicks supporting role is excellent. One of his initial scenes made me bust-out laugh in shock. go for both!
13:35 It says "Silence Dogood" which was a pseudonym used by Benjamin Franklin in many of his earlier writings.
I laughed out loud at your “Who the F is Alice?” joke. Well played!
"Sahara" with Matthew McConaughey is a good movie similar in type to this movie, derived from author Clive Cussler's (who was also a Treasure Hunter) Dirk Pitt character. Alright, alright. alright... 🙂 Hows the Baby, where are the Kitties?
Yes, you are correct. He was in the Sound of Music. Well done!
Yes, watch Kick-Abs (2010)!
I can’t believe Gone in 60 Seconds wasn’t on the Nicholas Cage poll
"Raising Arizona" is a classic. Early Coen Bros movie. "Family Man" is a very nice Holiday Movie. Shades of It's a Wonderful Life.
Another fun fact a pair of specs was included in a time capsule Independence Hall made by Franklin. Opened in 1976
This was one of those last films that captured that excited feeling for me. Not to sound cliché but they really don't make good (and fun) movies like this anymore.
"I need to go to America to see all of the history..."
Funny, I once went to Belgium mainly to see the Atomium.
Funny true story, Sean Bean has a T-shirt with text on the front that reads "Please don't kill Sean Bean."
National Treasure 2 is definitely worth watching. I would also definitely recommend giving Kick-Ass and Raising Arizona a try as well when you can.
"The goonies" is like a kid version of this and "the DaVinci code" also has a simalar chain of puzzles thing going for it.
Nic Cage was 6 million dollars in debt a few years ago when the real estate market crashed. He owned like 15 multimillion dollar mansions including a couple of castles in Europe. He stared in a bunch of b movies to avoid bankruptcy and pay his creditors. He’s ok now.
The Da Vinci Code trilogy is a riddle style films
"no, the Loch Ness monster ate it." -- Mary
Kick Ass is great and Raising Arizona is next level hilarious.
For the international audience, they changed a couple of lines.
When Ben figures out her password is Valley Forge, the US version has the line "She pressed 'E' and 'L' twice." Obviously, the American audience would already know the importance of Valley Forge. The US line also explains why Riley didn't have Valley Forge on his list - his list assumes each key was pressed only once.
Mary, you are so entertaining!
Sometimes people get a little chatty with their reactions but your observations and comments are on point and often hilarious.
Thanks again.
You may have already watched them but
Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade
The DaVinci Code
both fun and entertaining “follow the clues” movies.
Also, Raising Arizona is a CLASSIC! It’s one of those movies that has a “cult following.”
Right up there with The Big Lebowski at the top of the comedy list.
As someone with a pacemaker/defibrillator...I just figure a taser would kill me. I might even be alive long enough to know it hurts.
Both this and "Raising Arizona" are masterpieces.
Ian [pointing his gun at Riley]: "Don't speak again."
Riley: "OK."
Me: "Shoot him, Ian! Shoot him!"
😉😉
FYI, the declaration of independence was kept at Fort Knox during World War II. The British government also sent over the Crown jewels and the Magna Carta to be kept in Fort Knox.
National Treasure: Book of Secrets
(PG 2007 ) is a MUST SEE!
I hope you will watch it, it is the second movie in the series and I love it:)
(They do travel to Europe in that one too, I think?)
I remember loving the 2nd movie even more than the first one, so I hope you will watch it too!
That is the actor from The Sound Of Music.
I've not seen this Nick Cage movie reacted to: "Matchstick Men." Co-stars with Sam Rockwell.
Always interesting to see non Americans react to this movie because this is very much an **AMERICA** film with tons of references to our history and Founding Fathers. Like "Valley Forge" won't mean anything to you but for Americans (who didn't sleep in history class) will know that was the winter quarters of George Washington and his army, who suffered many set backs in the year before and was probably the lowest point in the Revolution but through a strict period of training emerged as a new, trained army for the new year of fighting.
Nicholas Cage is just awesome, He's one of those actors who has done soo much in his career, from comedy, drama, action and horror and yet in like 40 years he looks and acts the same
As for codes of the day, at the time of Washington Code wheels were common with simple replacement on a two track wheel with the alphabet printed twice, perhaps varried order. By the Civil War while dating to Romans a mutiple wheel cypher became more common, also double letter replacements. With the wheels an added rotation of the code as one went prevented simple replacement cracking. A might be C if first letter or F if second and so on. That is why as of WWII computers became needed to crack codes unless one got a key or a code machine.
Loved this movie! Nick strolling up to the Declarations and carrying out. Super Thanks, Mary!
You might consider The Italian Job 2003. It is a heist movie that is very clever and has a similar feel to National Treasure.
Aggh yes! Love that movie 🚗 🚚🚦😉
Agreed!! And I’ve not seen anyone else react to it either. Mary could be ahead of the pack.
Definitely check out raising arizona
I’m amazed more people aren’t into Red Rock West. One of the only movies ever to be released to home video first, and then get released in theaters because home video sales were so strong. 🤔
Violating a grave would be "desecration" (the act of treating (a sacred place or thing) with violent disrespect; violating it.),
and you could describe it as sacrilege or sacrilegious (violation or misuse of what is regarded as sacred.)
yes on the taser thing. When I was training to be a 911 operator we took a lunch to help them clean up when the cops in training had to do that. They also have to do it with the pepper spray- and they have to pass a test with that where they have to continue to fight through it after being sprayed- they can't be taken down and subdued by the "suspect" for a minute after being sprayed. I think that's how it went, anyway.
Raising Arizona - you'll be able to closely relate to how the ball gets rolling. And there's a baby.
Im not sure about all the debt but he did pay alot of money for a T-Rex head skull that ended up turned out being smuggled from Mongolia so he had to give it back to the state with zero compensation
Both Raising Arizona and Kick-Ass are great choices.
My favorite Nicholas Cage movie is Face Off.
A Nicolas Cage movie you might enjoy is "Red Rock West" (1993) starring Nicolas Cage, Dennis Hopper, and Lara Flynn Boyle. It is an excellent mystery/thriller, and one of my favorite movies. Enjoy your channel and wish you and your family all the best. - Kenton Couch
You should watch "Gone in 60 Seconds" Post Edit Seems like i remember years back he bought a T-rex for like 90 million dollars or something and never got it.. Umm he spent his money on would seem not needed things haha so yeah now he pretty broke for being a star...
Secret invisible writing is written in lemon juice and exposed with heat. You don't spread lemon juice on it again to reveal the writing. But in the movie they did for some reason.
That wasn't the kind used, there were several types of invisible ink, both citric acid and pee is brought out by heat alone but can be detected easy and all sides knew the trick as even Romans used it. Washington is documented as buying a special type used by his top spies that required a two part reactant to bring out the print. I don't remember the book name or all the details but it was about Washington's spy network.
My grandpa was a Shriner. Maybe one of my ancestors was a Templar also ;-)
I saw a post saying desecration but more common is grave robbing
Raising Arizona is a classic, so YES.
Yes on Kickass also.
16:30 Yep. Same with pepper spray.
"Is there a second liiiine" I'm dyin XD
One of the very few movies where Sean Bean DOESN'T die.
'Gravedigger', song by Cannae Rest.
You mentioned Raising Arizona. That's a must-see Nicholas Cage movie. It also has Holly Hunter who played Helen "Elastigirl" Parr in The Incredibles.
30:12 Desecrating a grave
I don't really care about National Treasure. This is a Birthday present. DO NOT USE THIS MONEY TO PAY BILLS. Happy Birthday, Mary!. (edited to add "Mary" to the final happy birthday, in case that was unclear.)
Haha thank you so much! No bills for sure! :D
In addition to Davinci Code, Romancing the Stone, and Holes (which are lighthearted action-adventure movies about finding treasure), I'd recommend Night at the Museum, Men in Black, and Sherlock Holmes (2009, with Robert Downy Jr.) as having a similar comedy-action-adventure tone to National Treasure.
When I was working security at a college you had to be pepper sprayed before you could carry it. Probably true about the taser.
Loved this movie ever since I saw it as a kid.
Another great Nick Cage film is "Renfield" (2023). Stars Nicholas Hoult and Nick Cage, with an assist from Awkwafina..
Also recommended is another Nicholas Hoult film from ten years earlier, "Warm Bodies".
I can confirm that you get tased and sprayed if you carry a taser and chemical spray. Taser is only unpleasant for five seconds. Chemical spray burns for several minutes and then burns again when you shower. The problem with your next three showers is that the spray goes...down.
I feel obligated to point out how incredible this movie is. They failed to kill Sean Bean.
By the way, for a series so extraordinary that Sean Bean not only survives but absolutely kicks butt, I recommend the Sharpe series. It is an excellent historical fiction set in the Napoleonic wars.
Raising Arizona is a fabulous movie. Lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻❄️
Great one to watch with a bit of a treasure hunt as well as adventure, revenge, and a bit of mystery is The Count of Monte Cristo (2002) -- I never get tired of watching it!
Others that come to mind that are somewhat different but still gripping and/or exciting are The Mask of Zorro and Absolute Power.
Thank you, Mary! Cheers to director Jon Turteltaub. 📜 Most certainly watch RAISING ARIZONA (1987). It's hilarious, has quirky art direction and also manages to make me cry at a certain point... every time, even after all these years... and I've seen it many, many times.
Wow. Bingo! First try! It is the actor from the Sound of Music. Christopher Plummer.
