The pitch meeting:
"Yeah I get it, they're kid ninjas. Home Alone meets Ninja Turtles... but who are they fighting?"
"Uh... the Three Stooges?"
"..."
"But they're hip. They're modern... they're srufer dudes."
"Congratulations, you just got the green light."
That is the greatest comedy movie that is not quotable… like name a line. You just have to see it. Damn, Chris Farley was great. Just watched “Tommy Boy” and “Black Sheep” too!
"I fear you're being lead around by your....short..sword."
Haru: "I know it, sensei! My ninja intuition tells me so!"
Sensei: "Haru you do not have ninja intuition. You do not even have normal intuition!"
So many more lines. God damn that movie is a treasure.
Yeah I was really young when my older bros had this movie on repeat and for some reason all I remember is the soda all these years later. It lives rent free in my mind and is damn near a core memory for some god forsaken reason
I own this on Amazon prime lol. It’s weird though because there are scenes in it that weren’t on the vhs tape I had. I used to watch this and fantasize about being a ninja like them lol.
Damn I just watched it on Amazon last month and I did not notice the difference, I must have watched the original US version 100 times as a kid. My memory sucks.
One thing definitely hasn't changed, I still love the movie though.
Does anyone really own anything through digital services? I believe most of these companies have said that you don't and that they can delete or change what hey want.
It's brought about the saying "if buying isn't owning than pirating isn't stealing".
Is this the movie where some bad guy takes a huge shit on a toilet or something. I have faint memories of finding this hilarious with my little friends
Whenever I see them, especially Colt, it's an instant thank you for giving me what my parents couldn't--being that childhood; while forever that legacy for all of us Millennials today. Again, thank you guys. ❤️✌️
Rocky loves… Emily!
Jingle bells Batman smells…
Two songs living rentfree in my mind. I really wish they put movies like these on streaming.
Loved the first; the nunchuck scenes with Colt were great in the second and I had a crush on the native American girl and the third was great with the ninjas.
Little fun fact. 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up which is the third movie in the series was actually made before 3 Ninjas Kick Back which was the second movie in the series. I have no idea why but thought it was interesting.
I used to love this series when I was <10. I'm pretty reluctant to watch it now due to the cringe.
I feel like there is a certain brand of children's movies and shows that ages very badly with your own growth.
Come out little dude! We don't want to hurt you, we just want to Kidnap yoooou
First we feast, then we felony. I often say this anytime I come home w takeout
If I were a little booger where would I be? ...MOM AND DAD'S ROOM!
"Hey - what time does school get out?" "I don't know. I never stayed till the end."
The idiot kidnappers added a lot to this movie. Their stupidity is so hilarious.
Not the face not the face!
Mr Muffin Man...catch ya later!
The absolute best scene of that movie! Epic lines the whole time.
These guys were the real stars of the movie. Marcus, score us some nacho chips and some radical salsa. None of that green stuff.
Du-ude?!

DIE YUPPIE SCUM
Come here you little IDIOT
I wanted to be Rocky so bad but I was a total Tum-Tum
…ROCKY LOVES EM-IL-Y! ROCKY LOVES EM-IL-Y! ROCKY LOVES EM-IL-Y!
God I haven’t seen this movie in 30-ish years and immediately started singing the melody. I had forgotten that scene even exists.
I was just chanting this while I was waiting for the comments to load!
Choked on a jellybean.
Tum-Tum had that Chad Power, though.
I knew I was Tum-Tum out the gate, 30 years later still got that Tim-Tum energy
I loved this movie when I was a kid so much. I thought the kids dad was such a shit head back then for not taking them or grandpa seriously.
Light the eyes!
up\*
Me and my 2 brothers loved these movies growing up.. First one was the best tho!
There is no other one
High Noon at Mega Mountain, *bruuuuuuther*!
Haha, ok that gets a pass
Hell yeah, thanks fam! Also semi-unrelated but Beverly Hills Ninja is my all-time favorite Chris Farley movie. Similar kind of so-bad-it's-good.
Yes! I watched that the other day! Haha
Fuck yeah!
That is the greatest comedy movie that is not quotable… like name a line. You just have to see it. Damn, Chris Farley was great. Just watched “Tommy Boy” and “Black Sheep” too!

I am the great white ninja.
Yes!
Some say it is so.
Brotherrrrrrrrrrr
Prove me wrong why don’t ya! 🤣
My brothers and I!
Yea two was pretty good, 3 was meh, and high noon doesn’t exist.
My weird ass wanted to try that cursed soda
Why did it look so insanely refreshing?!
Yeah I was really young when my older bros had this movie on repeat and for some reason all I remember is the soda all these years later. It lives rent free in my mind and is damn near a core memory for some god forsaken reason
Yooooooo yep
I own this on Amazon prime lol. It’s weird though because there are scenes in it that weren’t on the vhs tape I had. I used to watch this and fantasize about being a ninja like them lol.
The version on Amazon is the international version. The version you had on VHS was the original US release version.
Oh ok nice. Thanks for the info. I was wondering why it was different
Damn I just watched it on Amazon last month and I did not notice the difference, I must have watched the original US version 100 times as a kid. My memory sucks. One thing definitely hasn't changed, I still love the movie though.
Gotta get tubi. All 3 have been on tubi many times for free

The 3 ninjas vs the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
The turtles would stomp a mud pit in these kid's assholes and shit on their pizza.
Not if they had the Surf Ninja crew on their side. Rob Schneider alone could surely handle them!
Rob Schneider would be in the corner hunched over eating the shit pizza.
They can't afford knifes so the ninja turtles take it
The 3 ninjas vs scorpion subzero and reptile
"I wouldn't eat dog poop!" "First we feast, then we felony." "If I was a little dude, where would I be?" I love those idiots!
“Us three boneheads are sticking you up” As an adult I get the dark reference to the 1992 riots.
Rocky ,TumTum , Colt, and who could forget Lisa dimerino
Lisa was in Kick Back lol. The original had "Emily". Rocky loves - Emily! Rocky loves - Emily!
John Travolta's older brother Joey was also in Kick Back lol
TumTum and Colt
Thank you, I used speak to text and autocorrect got me on that one. Good catch. Thanks for telling me
Is this the movie where some bad guy takes a huge shit on a toilet or something. I have faint memories of finding this hilarious with my little friends
Iirc, they poison the would be kidnappers with laxatives.
Alright little dudes, party’s over!!!
“Now. Open up the cash register… before I have to get nasty. That’s right dude us three boneheads are stickin you up!”
“OoOo someone got a ticket!” “SHUT UP!!!” “…uhh… not you…. the kids”
So many hilarious lines in this movie. Not offensive stuff either, just good writing
I still say "ooooo someone got a ticket" whenever I pass someone whose been pulled over!
😆 I do the same thing! Every. Single. Time. hahaha.
Aayyaahhh! Loved these as a kid.
We went right home and tried to make those little pepper bombs (or whatever they were) that they threw at the bad guys.
Rocky loves—Emily
I was as cringe as rocky Had a bad attitude like colt Built like tum-tum
Wore this movie out
Ugh I loved Colt when I was a kid.
Like you, always was it Colt.
NINE
Tum-tum has the best ninja mask, yea i said it..
Light up the eyes boys!
When I started taekwondo I kept yelling AYE-YA Then the instructor said why u keep saying ouch. LOL
Rocky never locked Emily down. OD'd and died
Me, my twin, and cousin would watch this religiously during sleep overs. Good times.
This movie was awesome. I wish it was streaming somewhere.
There was a TIL on here that the asian-looking dumb henchman was just part of the crew and supposed to fill in for a bit.
Thought I was rocky but was definitely more of a tum-tum
Yuhh—AAYYAAAAA!!!
Freaking loved this movie. I very much identified with Tum-Tum and his love of candy 😂
Whenever I see them, especially Colt, it's an instant thank you for giving me what my parents couldn't--being that childhood; while forever that legacy for all of us Millennials today. Again, thank you guys. ❤️✌️
Got my 4 and 6 year old to watch this. They managed but weren't crazy for it. But still worth it
Rocky loves… Emily! Jingle bells Batman smells… Two songs living rentfree in my mind. I really wish they put movies like these on streaming. Loved the first; the nunchuck scenes with Colt were great in the second and I had a crush on the native American girl and the third was great with the ninjas.
Wow it's great to see this again. Don't they give the bad guys some laxatives or something? lol TUM TUM
Man, I used to watch this movie all the time. It was like home alone meets TMNT
3 Ninjas Kick Back is the only one that matters.
I loved this movie so much as a kid. Their bedroom was my dream! 💭
Little fun fact. 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up which is the third movie in the series was actually made before 3 Ninjas Kick Back which was the second movie in the series. I have no idea why but thought it was interesting.
“Who is it?!” “Pizza, ma’am!” “We didn’t order any pizza!” “Uhhh some kids called… and if you don’t pay… uhhh we’ll TP your house!”
If I was a little booger, where would I be?
Ah childhood memories!!
See ya later Mr. Munchkin man!
Wasn’t that entire movie basically an advertisement for the Game Gear, or one of those? Edit: was thinking of Surf Ninjas
You're thinking of Surf Ninjas.
This and Surf Ninjas!
The pizza man home invasion scene was the best
Hi-ya!!!!
Money cant buy knives.
OOoOo I love surprises…NICE OF YOU TO DROP IN.
I ya!!!!
I used to love this series when I was <10. I'm pretty reluctant to watch it now due to the cringe. I feel like there is a certain brand of children's movies and shows that ages very badly with your own growth.
I loved this as a kid, and now my son loves it. It's timeless!
I had such a crush on colt
DAVE DRAGON !! lol
The part where they play basketball and say "we'll spot you 9" lmao
Pretty sure Shredder would murder them... but yea, I remember this when I was a kid. Also Surf Ninjas.
Slow down. Slowin.
Rocky loves Emily
Still holds up!
Rocky loves Emily
I have all of the 3 ninja movies on dvd, I did not buy the dvd, I did not take the dvd, I have no idea where I got it.
Last Summer, me and my brothers
MY BROTHERS AND I
*cough cough*…choked on a jellybean
Every single one. 3 Ninjas, Kickback (my favorite), Knucke Up, Highnoon at Mega Mountain (the one with Hulk Hogan, terrible), I loved em all as a kid.
Everyone quickly..... people have the entire movie on YT. Go watch your childhood!
