Oh my gosh...Toni is going to be teared out by the end of this one...she will be crying non stop with every single emotion bursting out. I am sure she will love it, but it will be a ten tissue experience for her 100 percent. LOL
I just started, but there are at least four scenes where I think Toni is gonna lose it. Let's see...
Deep Impact is a must to see if you wish to compare.
Yes! Though it starts with an almost identical situation, it's a pretty different movie & there's so much drama! Can't say more cause it would spoil plot lines.
My favorite line" none of them want to pay taxes again, ever."
All taxation is theft 🤘
I think I would have chosen that over bringing back 8 Tracks. lol
I remember thinking that’s a brilliant ask! Lol
Absolutely best hazard pay, ever!
"American components, Russian Components... ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!"
Lev is the best 😁
Today it would be China.
@@charlesmaurer6214 i hope not cos you be at War
@@supreme3376 China makes 80% all the microchips in US military equipment and all with kill switches. First 2 flights sent after that Balloon had electronics failures as they came into range. The 2 finally sent took over a week to strip out the electronic and rebuilt to close to range. My guess is they borrowed some components from Israel. They buy US aircraft but first thing they do is replace the electronics. The F35I is the Israel only version and is nearly 25% better in test in several areas. They do to our jets, what we did to the Harrier in the late 60's and 70's. Tweek it out and make it better. BTW we are buying back close to a hundred Harriers now because the Boeing jets are behind delivery and with less than a third ready for use when delivered. A third are reported with machine filings found in the fuel tanks that can cause clogs or worse engine failure in flight. This was all in a recent Congressional Hearing. China has a standing army greater than our total population and the ability to disable the majority of our military hardware. War with China will be a gorilla style war after the US military is wiped out with the kill codes on the equipment.
Liv Tyler’s father, Steven Tyler, is singing the song, Don’t Wanna Miss A Thing, during the end credits. Steven Tyler is the lead singer of Aerosmith.
Weird fact: Steve Buscemi- the awesome actor who played Rockhound- was attacked at random the other day while walking down the street. He is ok, someone just punched him at random as he walked down the street in New York. Not only is he an amazing actor thats been in some incredible films, he was also a firefighter in NYC and lent a hand at ground zero shortly after the attack on 9/11.
Same thing happened to Rick Moranis a couple years back. Wierd.
The news would have you believe crime is down, however. It's laughable. Long live Steve Buscemi!
He was also stabbed in the face above the eye, in the jaw, throat, and arm 20 years ago as well.
Umm ok thanks for reporting the international news that everyone already knew. 🎉🎉
@@awj918 Well you could also say anything that made the news is something people "already know," but not everybody knows it. The film thats being reacted to is a movie "everyone has seen," and yet, the people reacting to it have not seen it, and we are all still here to watch people react to it.
They really knew how to make movies that touched you with good character development and story back then, even the corniest popcorn flicks still had genuine heart
"Requesting permission to shake the hand of the daughter of the bravest ma..."
- sniff sniff... too soon... 😭😭😭
Toni didn't close her eyes because she didn't want to miss a thing.
GOOD One😆Wish I'd thought of that...👍
Yes, yes, yes. Deep Impact is well worth a view. I feel it's the grown-up version of asteroid movies. Toni, get the tissues ready.
It may not have as much action as Armageddon, only in the last part, but yes, it is more serious.
One of my favorite all time movies!! Prayers to Bruce Willis and RIP to Michael Clark Duncan! 🙏🏽
"AJ, I got just five words for you: Damn glad to see you boy!"
"That's six words."
Fun Fact: The film opened on Liv Tyler's twenty-first birthday.
Casting Notes Fact: First major starring role for Michael Clarke Duncan, prior to this film he had done very small roles in TV and in film.
Not Excessive Fact: After Rockhound (Steve Buscemi) gets space dementia, the shuttle crew wraps him in duct tape, which is, in fact, NASA protocol for immobilizing a crazed crew member.
Free NASA Training Fact: NASA shows this film during their management training program. New managers are given the task of trying to spot as many errors as possible. At least 168 have been found.
He's Not Wrong Fact: Rockhound's (Steve Buscemi) line about sitting on a million pounds of fuel in a rocket built by the lowest bidder is a variation of an actual radio transmission by Mercury astronaut Alan Shepard, just prior to lift-off.
Seeya is one word in slang.
Thanks Gator!
Absolutely check out Deep Impact!!! Great movie too
Deep Impact is definitely worth checking out
Another cute, sweet thing about Billy Bob is he appeared in an episode of the tv show “The Big Bang Theory “, he did it for his mother because that was her favorite show!!
I encourage you to watch Deep Impact to compare!
Time for Deep Impact!
Deep Impact is definitely worth watching
arguably better than Armageddon, I think Toni would have more connection to Deep Impact
We checked it out last weekend! Hopefully we will release the edit next week sometime. :)
Deep impact was boring at least armageddon had better looks to it deep impact had terrible lighting and production values and poor pacing Michael bay is better than mini ledger.
Such a great movie, great actors. A true classic.
Toni was extra quiet during this movie ….not a ton of questions…I hope you’re feeling ok 🤗🥰.
Enjoyed the reaction!! I love this movie ! Thank you !!
"I'm temporarily insane, it's alright." 😂
Yes.... Deep Impact is definitely an amazing movie to watch. In fact, Deep Impact deals with more of a realistic view of what would or could happen if an impactor were to hit Earth. Also, "Greenland" is another realistic viewpoint of an asteroid or comet hitting the planet and how society would handle it.....
Mama has a great heart, she's crying watching a Michael Bay movie.
i cry with The Rock, fire movie, bay is criminal underrated.
Holy crap, Toni is gonna explode at the end 😂
Aww!! Steven Buschemi!! He’s the actor who said he told her how to use the tampons, didn’t show her.. Just read the other day that he was in New York and some random guy out on the sidewalk punched him ( or beat him up??), ended up going to the hospital for it!!!!
Same thing happened to the sweetest man alive Rick Moranis within the past year!
I will never go to new York!
We heard from the comments (I normally don't listen to the news) and it's pretty sad that it happened. What is wrong with people? - Toni 🤓
@@popculturallychallenged
Yea I don’t listen to the news too depressing, sad and scary!! Just saw this notice on CZcams…. I too don’t know what’s happening to people!!
My favorite line is "what are you doing with a gun in space?" 🤣🤣🤣
OMG!!!! get a towel for Toni .... this is gonna be a wild ride ..
I can’t believe how many times I’ve seen this and how many times I still cry during this Michael Bay, summer action, blow em up blockbuster. Love this movie. Glad you liked it. Deep Impact is good, but not as good as this one, imho. Funny thing, though, is that this one has Arwen, and Deep Impact has Frodo. 😂
Toni don't ever change, you remind me of my mom, she cried at movies like this too and over a lot of things, we called her a bleeding heart. I miss her a lot sometimes
Amen to that❤🩹and My Condolences to You🙏For Your Mom
This channel is one of the only reaction channels I get to see genuine, real emotional, dgaf if there’s a camera there reactions. Love ya!
Thank you so much!
Deep Impact is DEFINITELY worth seeing!
This is my favorite film. I first saw it when I was a young teen and remember saying "I think that was the best movie I ever watched" and I still consider it my personal favorite 23-25 years later. I'm on the edge of my seat every time I see it, no matter how many times I've watched it.
This is the era of twin movies the other in this case is Deep Impact as the B version.
In addition to Deep impact another older film Meteor was done with Sean Connery in a lead role. Also used a joint US & USSR mission.
I’m definitely watching this one. I think they should see hope floats with Sandra bullock.
Good Choice, My Mom Loves that Movie too!👍
Don't worry Toni, you're not alone in shedding a tear to this one. In fact, when the producers were trying to convince Aerosmith to record the theme 'I don't want to miss a thing' they showed this scene 39:56 to Steve Tyler, the bands lead singer and Liv's father. He had the same reaction as you to seeing his daughter calling for her daddy he broke down and finally agreed.
1998 was such a good year, damn I miss the 90's
Ohhhhhhhh!
I absolutely love this movie! I've probably watched it over 100 times ❤️
You should also check out Deep Impact kinda similar...same topic...but just as good. 👍
We will!
Billy Bob Thornton ( Bad Santa) you should check out his movie “Slingblade” he wrote it directed it starred in it and won an Oscar for it!!!!!! Great movie, story!!!
Billy Bob is cool!!!
I double that vote !!! Excellent excellent movie !!!! And I don’t think it will make Toni cry 👍🏼
Wow!! I did not know that. I'll add it to our list and go so some research. I really enjoyed him in this movie. - Toni 🤓
Liv Tyler is Steven Tyler’s daughter ( from the rock group “Aerosmith “)!
Aerosmith is singing the closing song.
And she has a sister that’s also an Actress/Model. Mia Tyler
David mentioned that and that she came out on The Lord of the Rings. I didn't realize that she had a sister that was also an actress. I'll need to go so some research. I enjoyed the closing song. - Toni 🤓
in my opinion, the best Michael Bay film ever. I still cry like Toni at the end
I'm so glad you reacted to this movie. It's one of my favorites. Such a great cast, amazing effects, & wonderful humor.
When Eddie Griffin and his dog appears that's when the destruction starts! That whole sequence would not stop playing on TV months before it was released. It was so incredible!
I remember the ads would show the line "Somebody dial 911!" lol
Yep, because Armageddon was going up against Godzilla in the theaters that summer. LOL
One of my all time favourite films, I can't wait to see your reaction tomorrow.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Toni:” Wait a minute, I have to go to the bathroom!”
I’d be saying “Wait a minute I’ve changed my mind I’m not gonna go!!”
Don't they wear potty things in their space suits? I've heard they do - but unsure if it's true
I'll defend this movie against anyone....nearly the perfect blockbuster film. Action, Comedy, Drama....it's got it all. Very fun to watch and hits you in the feels big time.
I dont know if you take suggestions from the comments but there is a movie fcrom 1979 thats called " A little romance" laurence Oliviers last movie and Diane lanes first. George roy hill directed, won many awards especially for the music and being filmed on site in france and england it was beautiful. I really hope you read this.
I’ll be honest, this is the most emotional movie I’ve ever seen, I freaking loved it named my daughter Grace, I love your reaction
Thank you!
The song at the end and the music video that David remembers is by the band Aerosmith. Liv Tyler is the real life daughter of Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler.
Deep Impact is so worth watching. It is a very emotional movie.
Good movies to cry:
1. End of watch
2. Interstellar
3. Southpaw
4. Captain Phillips
5. Frequency
6. The grey
7. Disconnect 2012
8. The ending of Deep Water Horizon is emotional too
Deep Impact is pretty good. It came out the exact same summer.
Pretty much every actor in the movie has been in many movies over the years. Séen these people in 40 or 50 movies and tv
Very touching!!
You certainly weren't alone with the tears at the end. Such an emotional rollercoaster of a movie. I saw this in the theater when it came out, and at the end of the movie half the theater was crying. But if you think you got it bad, you should check out the last few minutes of the CinePals reaction. XD
If you like reading, I highly recommend the novel that was the granddaddy of this kind of story, "Lucifer's Hammer" by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle.
An excellent book to immerse yourself into a world of imagination and suspense
I always think of this part of the movie. When I told my dad I was gonna propose to my no husband and he told me he'd be dam proud to have him marry me. Cancer took him before he could see it, but damn man, I know he was these.
DEEP IMPACT is a similar movie that came out around the same time... It's more about the people on earth and less about the space mission. It's more drama-y and less action-e, but still a great movie.
This movie never fails to be awesome everytime I watch it
Oh dear Toni please stop making my eyes tear up, 😂 , thanks for the awesome reaction and yes David the other movie is well worth watching,
Great movie and song , sang by Stephan Tyler her real Dad ❤❤
Thank you for reacting someone's childhood favorite movie.. it brings a lot of memories 😁
Our pleasure! 😊
Deep Impact is a great movie! They're good companion pieces cause its more grounded focusing on the effect on people's lives rather than big action adrenaline. Although Armageddon is more outrageous/over the top, it gets the emotional beats right, so the nonsense of the physics dont take you out from caring for the characters
you know its a michael bay movie when even the credits explode
Good point! 😂
You might as well watch Deep Impact, they both came out the same year.
Toni crying got me crying so hard 😢
This was just a pure big fun movie to see at the theater.
"Could that really happen?" The things I know about... The things I know are about to happen, but it would just stir up debate in chat. Nothing quite so all-life-ending as how this scenario could have played out, but big nonetheless. Anyone wanting to know, "suspiciousobservers"
Terminator 2 was a huge party. People were sitting in the isles!
I'll never forget it
You definitely need to see Deep Impact as well to get your full asteroid movie experience. Great cast and have tissues ready. Also recommend 2012 with John Cusack to keep with the end of the world theme.
There was a movie with a similar plot called "Meteor" shown back in 1979 starring Sean Connery.
I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry, I won't cry... Damn it Toni you set me off lmao.
Steven Tyler of Aerosmith wrote the song for the soundtrack for his daughter being in the movie 🎬. Perfect song for the movie. Words fit it.
Hollywood over exaggerates the oilfield. They love showing oil shooting out the ground like that. Back in the day yes it used to but these days it doesn’t. If that happened the state would be all over that company handing out fines like candy, fresh oil touching ground on the rigs is a major no no.
These days they prefer to drill with pressurized water and sand because there’s less issues. Cost, repair, resources, and safety
Thanks for the info!
Can't help but remember Space Madness! from Ren and Stimpy whenever I think about this flick ; ).
Toni's reaction to the list of demands by the devil crew was hilarious. Forgive parking tix, who killed Kennedy, pay no taxes again, EVER!!! -------- Daniel can't wait to join Harry's drill team. Toni, not so much.
Don't forget bringing back 8 Track tapes! 😂
These were the big Blockbusters of the 90s, very expensive, successful and very popular movies, others that I remember: Independence Day, Jurassic Park, Terminator 2, Titanic, Forrest Gump, Matrix, Speed, Die Hard 2, Heat, True Lies, Total Recall, Cliffhanger, The Rock, the second Michael Bay movie almost unanimously considered the best movie of Bay's career, with Sean Connery, Nicholas Cage, Ed Harris.
Right there with ya toni!
18:20, watching this launch at the movie theaters was epic. The sounds, the fury and old glory flapping in the breeze. Michael Bay knows how to sell it.
You two need to watch Deep Impact now. It’s more realistic and heart wrenching than Armageddon is in my opinion.
I think we're going to try to fit it into the schedule!
I like them both but Deep Impact is the better story.
Armageddon had its competition that year with Deep Impact, another asteroid movie, as did Volcano in its year with Dante's Peak in volcano movies, and as Saving Private Ryan competed in '98 with The Thin Red Line in a movie about the Second World War.
Is there any way we can set up a fund so we can get you guys another set of headphones so you dont have to share? Hearing a movie in stereo is way better than mono sound...
So glad you went into this blind, yes we wouldve been pretty upset if you spoiled the premise! lol Great reaction and videos guys, love watching you both watch movies together.
2012 Movie is another Great Movie to check out:)
This is one of my favorite movies
FYI asteroid in space, once in the air a meteor. Like magma and lava, one is underground the other once it breaks the surface.
to see Michael Clark Duncan crying... he was taken away from us far too soon!
Way too soon. 😭
I liked this movie quite a bit. I didn't see Deep Impact, but I've watched this one a few times.
Not sure what Toni would think of Star Trek, but she'd enjoy Galaxy Quest
I wasn't a Fan of the Original TV Series, but I've always Loved the Classic Movies...even the First one! I think Toni would Appreciate 'Star Trek' very much!👍
I'm not sure either. I was always more of a Next Generation fan but I did enjoy some of the original cast's movies. We might give some a try at some point. 😊
Great reaction guys to a michael bay classic big thumbs up
Thanks so much!
NASA love this movie 🙂FUNFACT: Ben Afflac:
"I asked Michael why it was easier to train oil drillers to become astronauts than it was to train astronauts to become oil drillers, and he told me to shut the f**k up," Affleck said. "So that was the end of that talk. [Does Michael Bay voice] 'You know, Ben, just shut up, OK? You know, this is a real plan.' I was like, 'You mean it’s a real plan at NASA to train oil drillers?' And he was like, 'Just shut your mouth!'"
i love the idea that Willis is having a hard time climbing on an asteroid that has, at most, 1% of the Earth's gravity. He could literally pull himself up with his pinky there
Good point!
WOW🤩IDK what's the Bigger Surprise: that Y'all watched this one and I had No Idea, or that David had never even seen it before!🤨IDK how Toni's gonna feel about the Ending💔but My Folks & I have always LOVED this Movie!👍It's easily one of the BEST Movies EVER for Michael Bay, Bruce Willis, Liv Tyler🥰and everybody else too...
This isn't the best Bay movie, but it is absolutely the most Bay-iest movie.
Deep Impact is a better movie, imo. It's a lot less "Explosions everywhere!!" and focuses more on individual character stories.
And it’s more scientifically accurate.
I remember Deep Impact being released around this time. In answer to your question, I always thought Deep Impact was the better movie. It just seems to be better-balanced rather than an all-out thrill ride. Both are watchable though.
I'm not a huge fan of Michael Bay but this is one of the few of his I love. I remember seeing this in theaters and it just blew my mind as a kid. Also, if I save the world I expect to never pay taxes lol.
I love this movie and have since it came out! I definitely agree with the folks who suggest you watch Deep Impact. The late 90s were so interesting, because in '97 we had two volcano-related disaster movies (Volcano and Dante's Peak) and then in '98 two space disaster movies (Armageddon and Deep Impact). It's pretty well accepted that both Volcano and Armageddon were the "popcorn" films and Dante's Peak and Deep Impact were the serious films. All worth watching!
Definitely watch Deep Impact, it’s also very good. Similar premise but a very different vibe. Great reaction!
If you haven't seen Million Dollar Baby yet please watch! Such a classic movie.
Y'all would love Billy Bob Thornton and Shia Labeouf in "Eagle Eye".
It's an outstanding film.
Great Reaction.
Take Care...
Now there's a Movie that More People should definitely watch!👍
Thanks! We'll add it to our list!
(25 minutes in) don't worry, T, it's not time to cry... yet
Hi Toni & David, Yes you should check out the movie Deep Impact, Toni have your box of tissues handy a bit okay.
Awesome!
Deep impact is a great movie ...a must see....came out the same time as armageddon........
