The Chief: Armageddon is almost upon us. Professor Plum: I got news for you - it's already here! Mrs. Peacock: Go away! The Chief: But your souls are in danger!

A movie that has a very similar feel that I highly recommend is "Noises Off", 1992, which is based off a play and is STAGED as a play in three acts: first the rehearsal for the play, then a performance of the play from the view of the audience, and finally as a performance as seen from backstage. It stars Christopher Reeve, John Ritter, Michael Caine, Carol Burnett and Nicollette Sheridan, among others. It's a glorious farce and funny as hell.

My local theater did a stage version of Noises Off. My brother in law is the tech director and he drew up the set/stage in SketchUp to see if it would fit. He figured out that he could in fact just barely make it and rotate the set as a whole to get the front/back aspect of the show. It worked great. At intermission the theme from 2001 played while the stage crew rotated the one piece set. For the movie, the cast is *amazing* and definitely in similar humorous vein as Clue.

"Tim Curry! Awesome!!!" Tim carries this film on his back. The entire third act is him doing a solo recap of the first two acts, with a manic madcap energy that shows through the sweat on his brow by the finale 🥵 It's a shame Tim has fallen on poor health since his stroke, and we wish him only the best. If you haven't seen Rocky Horror Picture Show, throw it on a musical list. Also, Ridley Scott's Legend, with Tom Cruise - look for the version with the Tangerine Dream soundtrack for my preferred cut.

One of the reasons (besides the obvious ones) that the final/third ending is best is because the whole “everybody did it” idea is a very clever homage to the immortal Agatha Christie, her work, and specifically the ending of one of her most famous stories. The idea plays out VERY differently in the original Christie story but the reference is pretty clearly intended in the ending of this movie. I’m purposely not spoiling the Christie story or even naming it in case Jen ever gets around to watching any of the movie adaptation of her books.

Speaking of Stage Plays, I would love to see you react to "Noises Off". Its a play within a movie.

This made my night. Thank you for doing this reaction. I love this movie. My family had the DVD that randomly play different endings, thus, it never got old. I think another mystery comedy is Murder by Death, but there are some others albeit the ones I can think of are black and white older movies. Arsenic and Old Lace. (A great one for Halloween since it is set at that time.) The Thin Man movies. (There are many of them.) And others, many others that I can't seem to remember at the moment.

Love 'Arsenic & Old Lace'. One of my all time favorites. Great movie that I would Highly recommend For 'Murder by Death' . The movies, &/or characters, she would need to watch/know before watching it re The Thin Man movies. I think there are 6, but just the first, maybe second movies are needed to get/understand the characters Miss Marple & Hercule Poirot. Characters from Agatha Christy Charlie Chan is a fictional Honolulu police detective created by author Earl Derr Biggers for a series of mystery novels. The character is Extreme ethnic misrepresentation Sam Spade, fictional character, the quintessential hard-boiled private detective, the protagonist of a novel (The Maltese Falcon, 1930) and several short stories by Dashiell Hammett.

Clue is a fictionalized version of the board game. It has many features from this game, such as the characters and colors of the pawns, as well as the pawns standing next to each other go beyond the board, so here they also have a problem when they go through the door together. In cinemas, each of the three endings was played randomly so that people would not know which one was true.

In 1991 Sylvester Stallone made a movie called Oscar that is very much like this one. No murders. More of a who's who? A lot of people all confused and running around. I think you'll like it. Marisa Tomei, possibly first movie, small role. Also Joey Travolta, John's brother. He plays ACE. One of Sylvester Stallone main guys. Tim Curry is in this also. Have you ever seen Johnny Dangerously? It stars Michael Keaton and a cast of characters. It's from 1984. It's the same type of humor but not all running around and confusion. Just dry, bizarre humor. A lot of memorable lines.

A big YES! to both movies. I mention Oscar in a bunch of first time movie reviewers. Glad to see someone else recognize an underrated movie that doesn't get much recognition. It's got that 30's screwball comedy vibe. And of course, Johnny Dangerously was a lot of fun, especially the more you know about 1930's gangster movies.

Love that you had such a blast watching this. One of my favorite comedies and simply a perfect adaptation of something as strange to adapt as a board game. About the tape recording being in being inadmissible in court, it varies from state to state how many parties have to agree to being recorded from both sides or just from one side. If it was set in a two party consent state then everyone would need to agree. California, Florida, and Pennsylvania are two party so if it was set in PA then it wouldn't be admissable.

Another movie with Tim Curry in it that I think you'd really enjoy is a Sylvester Stallone comedy, "Oscar". It has a bunch of the kind of stuff that you love in movies in it. And it has the advantage of being one that not many other reactors (if any) have reacted to. I highly recommend it for you.

There actually is a play version a friend of mine was in much. They shuffled up and selected the cards like the game and left them on stage to reveal at the end of the play. The person who drew the cards is the only one who knew and their dialog changes, which reveals to the actors which path was selected.

1:15 - "Look at this sexy maid outfit. Imagine actually though, like cleaning in that, like cleaning a bathroom in that outfit." - Well, now I'm imagining SOMEONE cleaning in that outfit. ;) 20:10 - "This is making me want to play the board game so bad. Such a cool board game. Is there like a version of it online that I could play? - Yes, there are various online versions of Clue, both single-player and multiplayer. Some are apps, some are for consoles and computers. Also, in the past, versions of Clue have been released for various retro consoles and computers. I've never played Clue myself. I was always under the impression that you collected actual clues, then I once read a copy of the rules and learned that it was just a process of elimination. I was disappointed. My problem with the multiple endings is that it's impossible for anyone to truly figure it out. No matter how carefully you watch and piece together the events, it's all just a crapshoot whether your guess will be correct or not.
