Ryan EllisHOST
I was curious if Landis ever worked with these three guys in anything else.
Ryan EllisHOST
I figured he must have, and he had worked with Chevy on Spies Like Us before this, but I think that's it for John Boy and Senor Chase, and there was nothing else that I could see with the Steves.
Ryan EllisHOST
Writer Steve Martin has jotted down 12 screenplays, including The Jerk, L.A. Story, and Bowfinger.
Ryan EllisHOST
Not bad.

Joshua StolteHOST
Even Spies Like Us
Jay ShepardHOST
feels more like a John Landis film than this one does.
Jay ShepardHOST
Because of the three stars in it, and it's not that it feels like a Saturday Night Live movie either, because there are movies, you know, where you're like, oh, okay, this is just like a Saturday Night Live bit that's been stretched out for an hour and a half, which is funny and then not funny and then funny and then not funny.
Zach PruittHOST
But that's a huge number, and this movie was so successful and still is.
Zach PruittHOST
This is a comedy film, in case you were wondering, directed by John Landis, who also directed Kentucky Fried Movie, which is an iconic underrated classic, The Blues Brothers, An American Werewolf in London, Trading Places, Spies Like Us, Three Amigos, Coming to America, and the music video for Michael Jackson's Thriller.
