Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Infamousta brilliant actors, brilliant editing
Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.
Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.
dave-conley Even when I first saw "Roll, Freddy, Roll" as an 11-year-old fan of anything starring Tim Conway, something puzzled me. Sure, I enjoyed Tim as always. And the climax where he's rolling through the streets like "Bullitt" on roller skates is amazing. But I just couldn't figure out the ex-wife and kid. I mean, Freddy's rival for his son's attention is a car dealer during an oil crisis ... while Freddy designs mainframe computers before anyone even knows what they are! So it's pretty obvious who the cool dad really is. If the ex and the kid are really that shallow, we need a sequel to set things straight - one where Freddy's a billionaire with a half-dozen IPOs under his belt, preferably roller blading with his third trophy wife.
bvnbi-1 After all these years, I've finally found someone else who remembers "Roll Freddy Roll". Maybe we are the only two demented minds to have reacted similarly when it was viewed, but it has been an ongoing project to obtain a copy of this movie in any form as a means of either validating the absolute comic genius of this movie; or to finally denigrate my ability to assess what is funny. As I read the previous comment, I kept saying "YESSS!!!" after each sentence as if it came from my keyboard. All I can say is if Disney, Persky, Conway, or anyone else with access to this movie can make it available to the public, they have a confirmed customer in me.
imsassy50 This movie had my husband and I "rolling" on the floor in laughter. I have been searching for years for "Roll Freddy Roll". This the the first time I have even seen it come up on a website, THANK YOU. Now to get Disney to bring it out on DVD or even VHS would make me very happy.Tim is one of my favorite actors and everyone should see this hilarious film. We were newly married when we watched this on TV and I have never forgotten it. I have searched the web over and over and was beginning to think I had the wrong title, I knew that Tim Conway was the main actor so continued to search. I will be using this site to search for movies that I would love to buy. Please stress that this movie needs to be brought back for my children and my grandchildren to see. Come on Disney, bring it back!
Moax429 I remember seeing "Roll, Freddy, Roll" when it first aired on December 17, 1974; I had just begun junior high school in Lansing, Michigan.Seeing this film again would bring back many great memories; unfortunately, the last time I saw "Roll, Freddy, Roll" was in 1987 when an independent station here in Detroit ran it. Naturally, the station cut the film in order to fit the time slot (without commercials, "Roll, Freddy, Roll" ran about an hour and 40 minutes).I discovered Disney now owns "Roll, Freddy, Roll;" in mid-1995 they purchased ABC, whose former ABC Circle Films division produced the film (ABC Circle Films was later responsible for "Moonlighting").In unity there is strength, and the more requests Disney receives about "Roll, Freddy, Roll," the quicker they'll dig into their vaults, unearth it, and put it on DVD!
