Please release it on DVD!
The story goes that Aykroyd was originally cast as the timid home owner and Belushi was the loud outrageous neighbor. When they sat down to read the script for the first time together, they were halfway through it when John suddenly said, "we've played these characters before. It's the same old thing." Dan thought and said, "wanna switch?"
Danny's played loud and boisterous before (and since) but this is the first (and last) time John has ever played a straight man, and THAT'S what makes this film special. By playing it straight John shows us what a good actor he really was, and Danny brings to his role his own special maniacal dementia that he was so adept at (remember the bass-o-matic salesman?). I don't know if a grassroots campaign on amazon will give the necessary push to get this movie released on DVD, but here's hoping!
Please release this film..........
I`m writing this review just to help push for the release of this movie on DVD, I got to watch it a very long time ago, like 1982............when I was in 2nd grade & I barely remember any of it...........C`mon people, release this for everyone who has never got to see this move or the ones who don`t remember much about it.......
Great Forgotten Movie
I wish this movie would come out on dvd. I have always loved it. John Belushi and Dan Ackryoid are hilarious.
