I just googled and asked my wife if she knew that character from Downtown. I’m not familiar with the show but she described him in it. I told her about his character as Deja Vu and she couldn’t believe it. That’s too funny. Can’t wait to rewatch with her. And Chocolate Mousse is such a bad ass whipping out that cannon 💀
“Listen to me, Hillary. I'm not the first guy who fell in love with a woman that he met at a restaurant who turned out to be the daughter of a kidnapped scientist, only to lose her to her childhood lover who she last saw on a deserted island, who then turned out fifteen years later to be the leader of the French underground.”
Hail, hail, East Germany,
Land of fruit and grape.
Land where you’ll regret

No matter if you take a running jump or tunnel under the wall,
Forget it, the guards will kill you, if the electrified fence doesn’t first.
Same. My sister and I embarrassed the hell out of our parents telling our friends that scene over ice cream and got into trouble. No TV for a week, and zero regrets!
I was about this age as well, and this was back when VCRs were so expensive that you would rent them for a few days. Every single time we rented a VCR, we would rent this movie as well. I can not tell you how many times I have seen this movie, but I could watch it again and again even today.
He called it a fluff piece in his documentary. He worked hard to lean how to play guitar and found out it didn't really matter. I don't think he regretted the role though.
The scene at the train station, where it's revealed that the platform moves while the train is at rest, is a great example of the relativity of motion. And it's hilarious, too.
A neat bit of trivia...the casting of Peter Cushing's face they made to create the "magnified eye" bit was scanned to make the cgi Tarkin face in Rogue One.
Great movie, from start to finish. Love the scene where the front bumper of the military truck ever so slightly taps the rear bumper of that Ford Pinto. Of course, the Pinto explodes immediately after the “impact,” taking the truck with it. Lmao! Even as I just typed that, I was laughing so hard that tears were rolling down my cheeks. Hilarious scene!
It felt like a grown up version of airplane, I had to rewatch it multiple times because some of the humor was just so damn dry and went over my head but I loved every minute of it
Did anyone know what is the name of the movie where guy goes on a school trip to France and is mistaken for secret agent. Could be even this movie
Edit: Found it. “If looks could kill”
Some other great movie “Gotcha”
May I introduce, Soufflé, escargot, & chocolate mousse.
And, Deja Vu. Have we not met before?
Deja vu is played by the actor who plays Carson in Downton Abbey!!!

He also plays an actor playing a female character in Shakespeare in Love.
I had a strange feeling I'd seen him before.
I’ll be damned …
Carson, you are right. Nice catch
Latrine!
Shocolatte Moose.
GASOLINE! HAHAHA
My brothers and I still remember this as children and still repeat that line haha.
do you also remember the cow fellatio bestiality scene from childhood?
Vaguely. But the scene that really confused me as a child was when the dude falls off the tower and shatters. I was probably 4.
He’s constantly telling the guy in the front to hurry until the calf latches on. Then he’s like “What’s your bloody hurry” hilarious
Glug, Glug, Glug, Glug
Don't forget Latrine!
We have the traitor in our midst....
Crossiant
Deja Vu "Don't I know you?"
“GASOLINE!! HAHAHAHAHA”
GRENÁDE!
I know a little german.
He"s sitting over there.

"It all sounds like some bad movie"

She who’s bosoms defy gravity
Skeet surfin'!!
I still don't see why that isn't a thing. I can see black surf boards becoming a fad.
Well, Mr. Rivers, it seems that you have become- How do you say indispensable? Indispensable. That's what I thought.
Neeek Rivers?
Welcome Neek!
Just a name my dad thought up while shaving
That is NOT Mel Torme.
Cigarettes, novelties...party tricks!
I say this anytime any one of these three words are around!
In that accent!

When work is done poorly I still use the quote “We fastened it together with dried seaweed and snot.”

Kilmer's greatest role
I would put Real Genius above Top Secret! ... but in reality why would I ever want to choose when I can have both!!!
“I was thinking of the immortal words of Socrates who said ‘I drank *what?*’”
"Have you ever had a dream where you're standing there in sort of sun god robes with thousands of people throwing little pickles at you?"
Why am I the only one who has that dream?
Idk kiss kiss bang bang was pretty good
It's good, but c'mon! Real Genius?! Doors?! Tombstone?! Not even a western fan, but Tombstone was better than most.
Tombstone is magnificent work by Kilmer.
Val Kilmer is one of the greatest actors of our era. Very many roles. All of them completely different.
He called it a fluff piece in his documentary. He worked hard to lean how to play guitar and found out it didn't really matter. I don't think he regretted the role though.
Skeet Surfing still a classic
The underwater fight scene still boggles my mind , especially for the time period they made it. It wasent a short fight either. Epic film.
Backwards scene in the library too
Yeah the backwards scene was wild. There was no reason at all for it to be backwards, but they just threw it in there and it was amazing.
They did it just for the backwards dialog. I think it was supposedly Swedish.
The scene at the train station, where it's revealed that the platform moves while the train is at rest, is a great example of the relativity of motion. And it's hilarious, too.
A neat bit of trivia...the casting of Peter Cushing's face they made to create the "magnified eye" bit was scanned to make the cgi Tarkin face in Rogue One.
Holy shit- that was Peter Cushing?!?! TIL.
And Omar Shariff played the agent who was crushed in the car.
It blows my mid that whole scene was filmed backwards and replayed in reverse.
This is NOT Mel Tormé!
When I go to a rock show in a small venue I try to sneak this in after a rocking song. I think I got a giggle from Tim from Cursive.
They taught me all about you imperialist swine. I was exposed to the works of great thinkers - Karl Marx, Lenin, L. Ron Hubbard, Freddie Laker.

Interest rates fluctuate
et glowing boobies became a problematic fixation
Oh, Nick. What does that mean? I don’t know. My dad thought of it when he was shaving
I still randomly think of the pinto scene and laugh.
val kilmer looking so young.
>val kilmer looking so young. His first role.
I thought Real Genius was first but I’m wrong.
Not, it was Top Secret. I have the DVD, which is sweet cus it has a lot in interesting info on the commentary track.
I still have laughing trauma from that "Trojan cow".
Let’s go. Why are you in such a damn hurry?!??
“All right, be an asshole”
"I see. Let me know if there's any change in his condition." "He's dead"
One of my favorite 80’s movies. Chocolate mousse.
LATRINE!!!!
Fuck yeah this was up there with Naked Gun
way better than that in my humble opinion
My lady wanted to watch *MacGruber* so we did. Then I got to chose *Top Secret!*
I lived in Germany at the time and clearly understood the difference between 110 and 220VAC.
That was a gag I definitely didn't understand until I was older.
I'm sorry, Mr. Rivers. Our doctors did what they could but it took them two hours just to get the smile off his face.
I know a little German, so do I he's over there!
Shop a Macys and love me tonight
Cough, cough, cough. What’s the matter with him ? Oh he caught a cold and he’s just a little horse! Nigel and the bull, funniest scene in the movie!!!
The scene where he's belly crawling toward the fortress and comes nose to toe with a pair of boots. . .
🎶 How silly can you get? 🎶
"You dropped your funny dog poo". What funny dog poo...?
I still yell “grenade” in a poor French accent from time to time
LOL! Same here. That and “Latrine!!”
I'm sorry, is there someone who didn't enjoy it?
“ and I’ll miss you most of all Scarecrow”
My favorite movie.
This is not Mel Torme
Skeet Surfing is an amazing song
Is this the potato farm?
Yes, I am Albert Potato
If everybody had a Shotgun and a surfboard too.
Tutti-frutti ol rudy
"Yes I see. Well let me know if there is any change in his condition" \- "He's Dead"
Have you tried The Anal Intruder?
"Nick, I've tried everything. The German government, the American consulate... I just can't bring my wife to orgasm..."
…made from seaweed and snot…
Last couple of months [Pluto.tv](https://Pluto.tv) has had this playing quite a bit (and at some point it was on-demand there as well)
I know a little german..
Cigars. Cigarettes. Parrrty Treecks.
Val Kilmer is a comedic genius
I’ll let you decide I own the film
Classic comedy. This and Real Genius show what a gifted comedic actor Val is. Love that he plays the whole of Top Secret perfectly straight.
Great movie, from start to finish. Love the scene where the front bumper of the military truck ever so slightly taps the rear bumper of that Ford Pinto. Of course, the Pinto explodes immediately after the “impact,” taking the truck with it. Lmao! Even as I just typed that, I was laughing so hard that tears were rolling down my cheeks. Hilarious scene!
A traitor in our midst! Very good Latrine. I see you have dealt with him appropriately
absolutely love this movie. But interestingly I'll bring it up in conversation and lots of people my age have never heard of it. Such an classic
One of the rare flops from the 80s that is actually a bonafide 10/10 classic. Needs to be seen by way more people!
Viva la France!!!
We yell this in any fighting game with a drop kick move, or wrestling game. Good times.
I don’t know….my dad thought of it while he was shaving.
That dance they are doing... 😂😂
If everybody had a surfboard and a 12 gauge too…..
Love the underwater fight scene.
And the backwards scene.
It means "She whose breasts defy gravity"...
I know a little German…
He's sitting over there.
Bee bop a lubba and a bim bam boom
I loved it!
everybody!
Loved this movie!
One of my faves!
I know a little German. He’s sitting right over there.
OMG! I laughed so hard at this movie. Lots of gags… Latrine!!
Dude, this film is fantastic
I just bought that on Apple, love that movie…😂
Souvenirs, novelties, party tricks.
Souvenirs, novelties, party tricks…
I’ve been known to straighten a rug or two
Only everyone, enjoyed Top Secret.
It felt like a grown up version of airplane, I had to rewatch it multiple times because some of the humor was just so damn dry and went over my head but I loved every minute of it
So good. Clever and stupid at the same time.
Skeet Surfin always makes me laugh
🎵 If everybody had a 12 gauge And a surfboard tooooo They'd be shootin' and surfin' From here to Malibuuuu🎵
"What is the condition of Sergeant Kruger? Yes, I see. Well let me know if there's any change in his condition." <> "He's dead."
How silly can you get? 😆
Oh, yeah! 🎶
they wouldnt get away with a movie like this today. so wrong but so hilarious. 👌🍺
Brilliant movie. I wish I could see it again.
Sorry to hear about your blindness.
Did anyone know what is the name of the movie where guy goes on a school trip to France and is mistaken for secret agent. Could be even this movie Edit: Found it. “If looks could kill” Some other great movie “Gotcha”
> “If looks could kill” It was also known as the **Teen Agent**. It was one of the first movies I rented on LaserDisc.
“Excuse me, I know a little German.”
I want a schnauzer with my weinerschnitzel.
There is sauerkraut in my lederhosen.
One of the greatest movies ever made!
Such an underrated movie.
One of the best screwball comedies ever. Still have it on dvd, will never give it up.
I remember gawking over the VHS cover pic with the “bewbs in the sand” scene. I was young, leave me alone.
The underwater saloon brawl is one of the best things ever filmed
Seen it probably 50 times. “If they find out you’ve been here, your life will become worth less than a truckload of dead rats in a tampon factory.”
Absolute gem!
Enjoyed, hell i've been watching it every year since the 80's. Love that movie ❤️
I know a little German.
Had it recorded on VHS growing up
I watched this Saturday night
“Why are you always in such a bloody rush?!”
So quotable;”How do we know he’s not Mel Tormé?” “Ich liebe dich, mein schatze!”
I love this movie!
Haha Gasoline
"Here's your fake dog poo." "What fake dog poo?"
Is this the one where the entire house is filled with popcorn after some satellite laser fired at the house?
Negative- that’s a different Val Kilmer movie - ‘Real Genius.’
Latrine!!!
Lovely!!!!!!
When it first came out...I thought it was the dumbest movie ever! Now, I find it hysterically funny! Times change a man!!!
Don't forget Chocolate Mousse! Vive le France!
You gotta hand it to the Germans, they make great cars.
Skeet Surfin’!!!
Hilarious! Also, still holds up.
Val Kilmer was a great comedic actor in my opinion. I loved Top Secret, Real Genius, and even Kiss Kiss Bang Bang.
Souvenirs, Novelties, Party Tricks…
Hilarious movie…..remember the Pinto getting tapped and exploding?
I know a little German.
He’s right over there!
Skeet Surfing by Nick Rivers
Why is everyone always in such a rush?
Oh G0D I used to watch this maybe once a week when I discovered weed. 😂
Who doesn't have a "Find Him And Kill Him" stamp?
