  • I luv this movie

  • I can't believe that they are remaking this! >_<. The original Drop Dead Fred will always be the best one XD. Ah the good ol days ^_^. I want to add this to my movie collection now *giggles* :).

  • best movie ever!! :D

  • Eugghh! what does that taste liek ? OOF!

  • Love the dog shit on the chair.

  • i still haven't decided if fred is semi-real or if Lizzie simply is insane :i

  • NOOO!! I will drop dead if they re make this movie!!! :( I cant take it... footloose was horrible

  • Thx tosh.O

  • fred looks like singer from arcade fire

  • Childhood memories ;3

  • When I saw the preview on TV, I thought this was a comedy spoof about Freddy Krueger on A Nightmare on Elmstreet.

  • THUMBS UP IF THE YOUNG ONES BROUGHT YOU HERE.

  • LOL i remember this xD

  • I don't mind if they remake it as long as they re-release the original,you can't find this film anywhere really,and once they made Tron legacy they re-released the original,so that's cool.

  • MY CHILDHOOD.

  • I USED TO WATCH THIS ALL THE TIME WHEN I WAS LITTLE! I STILL LOVE IT!!!! i wonder what the remake will be like :/ it won't do the original fred justice

  • 12 I watched this movie, lol too hard

  • This will always be my favorite movie <3

  • i was born in 94 and this has been my fave movie since i was 3....

  • its so unfair i was born in 1995 coz if i grew up with dis i would be one seriously hyper child blaming everything on fred

  • ...Fred Weasley, is that you!?

  • Princess Leia was showing the floor whos boss! 1:34 !

  • @fleetr06 That parts makes me laugh!

  • Russell Brand is going to destroy this movie.

  • I love the ending

  • Now I'm 25, and it's 20 years after I first saw this, I've just laughed more at this trailer than I've laughed at any film since American Pie. Can't wait til' my daughter is old enough to laugh at this!

  • i love this bloody movie i remeber the bit where all the children were in that place with there own imanjenery friends and they cn all see eachother lol

  • ITS FREEKY FRED FRM COURAGE THE COWARDLY DOG!!!!!

  • It's one of those movies where you loved it as a kid but cant help not loving it as a teenager!

  • No remake please.

    Mayall = Perfection.

  • I remember this from when I was a little kid, I thought it was creepy but loved it, Im now 16 I still love it

  • @XCitPrincessCourtney me exactly.

  • They are remaking this film with russel brand playing drop dead fred.... FFS why do they have to change it, especially with that twat :(

  • and this is why i loved my childhood

  • this movie creeps the shit outta me!

  • Why are fucking remake, this movie is 1991. It's not fucking 50 years old. Hollywood sucks so bad, all they do now is remakes and jack movies from other countries and most of the times they ruin it. Look at all the horror movies, most are asian horror remakes. Yeah sometimes they rarely manage to pull something good off, and even more rare make it better than the original movie. The only remake I remember being good was The Departed, and it was pretty fucking good. Enough Remakes!!!!

  • wow this is a horror films, I love it!!!

  • they are making the new movie in 2011

  • FRED FIGGLEHORN IS BETTER

  • Okay, I'll be the one to say it. This was an awful awful movie. To most people at least. I used to love this movie when I was like 5, so I can never ever hate it. It will always hold a special place in my heart (the nostalgiac section to be exact)

  • This movie was great. Superb performances by Phoebe Cates and Rik Mayall bring this little film to life. Very entertaining for young and old, and a touching story too!

  • In April 2009, it was revealed that Universal had acquired the rights to Drop Dead Fred and are working on a remake of the movie, with British comedian Russell Brand playing the title role. The film's producers are Marc E. Platt of Marc Platt Productions, Carlos Davis, Anthony Fingleton and Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner of Working Title Films, the company that produced the original film.

  • If you like Rick Mayall you should check out "the young ones" and "Bottom"

  • i love this movie so much and rik mayall, so if they remake it...im guna kill som1

  • I HEART RIK MAYALL :)

  • this movie is the best. is this a remake though ? i never knew that. this was the only one i've ever watched.

  • @magoo16ski

    no, this is the original but there's going to be a remake in 2011

  • I DON'T WANT NO REMAKE!!!

    Original's the one to watch. With Mayall!!!

  • I watched this last night and hadn't realized that I saw it many, many years ago. I'm 20 now, and I have to agree with RedDwarfRules, it would not be the same if Fred hadn't been English. That added a lot of detail to it that an American might not be able to place.

  • i remember this movie...i used to watch it all the time.

  • outrageously cute

  • Ahhh.! I seen THIS MOVIE FOR MY FIRST TIME LKE 2 days ago. Lmao and let me tell ya, I luved it.! It's so funny.! Haha awesome movie(:

  • This is my favorite movie. The little girl is soo cute! I love fred. haha nuff said.

  • this was my favorite movie when i was a kid i would always watch it when i went to my cousins

  • I watched Drop Dead Fred and I'd hate to admit but I loved it, despite some of the not so good elements, but hey I dig this movie 100 times more than Avatar, 2012, Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and Minority Report. Hate all those movies I named above. Last but not least I dig campy movies way more than Oscar worthy movies. This movie may not of won an Oscar, but it is a classic.

  • I named my horse after Fred from this movie, it was my favourite character ever!

  • memories, this movie is my all time favorite since I was 7 years old.

  • lol I watched this movie about a year ago before I knew who Rick was and then I watched the young ones but somehow I didn't make the connection.

    Then I freaked when I watched this trailer. Rick as an imaginary friend = fear.

  • Phoebe Cates is the hottest chick,crazy how time passes she's 47 now.

  • I love this movie...(:

  • can somebody tell me what he called his mother in french.. ''la mega...'' something thanks

  • @SuperMeli1983 mega vache

  • I don't mind them remaking it, & Russell Brand is a good actor, but NO. Rik Mayall IS Drop Dead Fred and cannot be replaced ='(

  • Rik Mayall circa 1990 with Johnny Rotten hairdo as an imaginary friend? Yes, please.

  • Best Film i watched Growingg up as a child!! : Well that and Toy Story...i love beingg a 90's kid muc better then the rubbish children films they make now!!

  • favourite film everrrrrrrrrrrrr <3

    hope they dont ruin it by making a new one.

  • I looking forward to see the remake with Russell Brand because the part of Drop Dead Fred fits him perfectly.

  • @zukie2music WHAT? A REMAKE?

  • 100,000 thumbzzzzzz up

  • omg this was always my fav movie as a kid!

  • I heard this movie is being re made with Russel Brand as Fred

  • @Cracker76 i heard i vomitted instantly when i heard that

  • @Cracker76 that makes me want to vomit.

    i always thought if it HAD to be remade, natalie portman and callum blue were the best for the job.

  • best movie ever

  • This was my favourite film as a child. That scene in the restaurant made me weep with laughter. The way she slowly pours the contents of her glass onto the table...

  • Phoebe Cates is so damn hot!!!!

  • I had to see it to believe it when I read that russell brand was gonna' be involved with a remake. I too agree that he's an arse! I won't be watching it at all.

  • OMG seriously theyre remaking it?!! omg i dont know how to feel :S its my favourite film ever, i dont think russel brand or anyone for that matter can top rik mayall as fred :P

  • @billypony

    Totally agree!!

    Rik is one of my favourite comedians who put alot of physical effort into it and that's what makes them hillarious!

  • @billypony

    Totally agree!!

    Rik is one of my favourite comedians who put alot of physical effort into it and that's what makes them hillarious!

  • This movie came out when I was eight years old and this trailer was the catalyst for all of my nightmares. It was seeing the obnoxious Fred getting hit by a fire engine and seeing what happens to his head when it gets stuck in the fridge. Yikes. Not a good idea to show this thing to kids.

  • One of the best Movies i've ever seen! Rik is a comic legand or should be!

  • watching it as we speak

  • the fact that drop dead fred was english was a good touch ^^

    wouldnt be the same if he was american in my opinion

  • @RedDwarfRules wish he said Knickers instead of panties

  • It sounds completely wrong doesn't it? I've never said panties in my life ... well, possibly when I was about three ...

    Still. The all-American-apart-from-Fred thing seems to work really well anyway. Especially as it's Rik Mayall... <3

  • @RedDwarfRules Yeah and his accent was splendid.

  • I love this movie; it was one of my favorites as a kid. I need to get it on DVD again.

  • melanie payne 4 lizzy incredible acting skills can talk to self...i can go on and on

  • MELANIE PAYNE=LIZZY <3

  • THIS MOVIE IS MY FAVOURITE.

    GREAAT.

  • Melanie Payne for Lizzy!

    Psh, she could totally pull that off!

  • Melanie Payne deserves the role for Lizzy because she's a great actor has a sense of humor and can go really far if she gets this part. Melanie Payne for Lizzy!

  • Yeah,i agree...melanie payne would be the right person for Lizzy!! :)

  • I need to watch that, and I think Melanie Payne would be awesome for the part of Lizzie....

  • I think Melanie Payne would be a GREAT part for the role of Lizzy! She REALLY wants a srole, so if anyone could spread the role (mostly to a Hollywood Producer) that would make her REALLY happy!

    :D

    spread the word people!!!

    xoxo Naty

  • Melanie Payne would be PERFECT to play Elizabeth if someone made a remake!! She has amazing acting skillz. You can check out her page ravenclawLDS89 if ya don't believe me!

  • Melanie Payne should definately play Elizabeth, she is has great acting skills, check out ravenclawLDS89 to see her acting alongside her friends.
