YA movies were all the rage in the early 2010s, but a strange thing happened where those young adults… aged? It seems like the even younger adults did not share the same enthusiasm for the genre, and nothing made that clearer than the drop-off that was seen in the Divergent series.
The Divergent Series: Insurgent definitely raises some questions. Like how is Tris so good at hair styling? How did the bad guys get that magic technology in the past 5 days? How do any conspiracies exist when truth serum is a thing? How does Janine lose when she’s mind-controlling an entire faction?
To answer all these questions, check out the pitch meeting that led to The Divergent Series: Insurgent!

The reboot can be called detergent
Yes. Just... Yes
Best comment xD
this, 100% this
Well played
You should pitch that to the Wayans Bros... This joke would have been relevant 20 years ago.
Having backlogged episodes to post even while taking care of your new born daughter is TIGHT!
Part 2:

I just found out Ryan’s a dad through a random CZcams comment. Oh Wowwow wow….wow
That works!
Wow wow wow
Wow Wow Wow... Wow
I will never watch these movies, but I will watch these pitch meetings multiple times.
Yeah if theirs a movie that I don’t feel like watching or i can’t see it cuz I’m to young for rated R I either watch a pitch meeting or watch someone react to it.
Same here! The Divergent series looks far too stupid to be worth watching.
binge rewatches of few houndred episodes are tight
This is the way
Same here. I can’t invest 2 hours in bad movies but I always have time for a Pitch Meeting.
I kinda admire you for not making a "colons are tight" joke in the beginning.
only because he got going in with a penis(happiness) is tight. i mean, together these both kinda...
In an way, he kind of still did
he's quite good lol
Mine is
Yes, but throwing a colon in there is...disquieting.
Nah, missed opportunity
I love how Screenwriter Guy slowly loses all confidence in himself during the course of the pitch.
"I love the joke for being the joke"
Seems like this should happen more often
I love how Screenwriter Guy hasn't killed himself yet.
Just wait if they do allegiant. ScreenwriterGuy may actually be fired.
@@cainsterHe's an immortal vampire. He cannot die.
When the Pitch Meetings are better than the actual movies!
I kind of don't even listen to the plot. Just here for the producer guy and writer guy jokes.
Making the Pitch Meetings more entertaining than the actual movies is super easy, barely an inconvenience!
What do you mean, “when”?
So… like every time, then
Gee dang it!
Setting up that it was NOT a place holder line with the lip synced cut is some efficient comedy, especially since NOBODY saw this movie. Just fantastic work.
yeah eh! that bit was a noticeably well crafted, and executed! I stopped and replayed it 5 or 6 times before letting the video continue lol
"By only being used in one scene."
Best line ever
“Why did they attack”
“Well cause we wanted an attack scene”
yea yea yea
Pretty much just over 50% of every action movie ever made.
Wow wow wow
😂😂😂😂
Once again, congratulations on becoming a father, Mr. George!
Impregnation was super easy, barely an inconvenience...
Condolences, you mean...
Was it producer guy or screenwriter guy who became a father?
@@rickstaismMr. George.
@@rickstaism lol!
Producer guy seems like he’s especially into this series. He’s really laying down the lore.
He's become better at his job after all, proud of him
"I will not do that until several scenes have passed!" 😂 Putting this placeholder dialogue in all of my plays now
"Welll, hooray for Four for that forceful foray!"
"What was that?"
"I'm not saying that again; my tongue almost fell off."
🤣🤣🤣
I was wondering how many test runs or takes it took to get this line out perfectly?!?!?!
well ok then
With a fourth wall break too! He uses it sparingly sonit works so well when he does it!
@@francisadams1834This guy knows what he's doing lol
I listened to it multiple times….BRILLIANT!!
Being early for a pitch meeting is tight
No Diddy
Part 2: Euphoria
czcams.com/video/zPGcrb5_ZXc/video.html
with youtube algorithm, super easy, *barley* an inconvenience
Yeah, it's super easy. Barely an inconvenience.
Yeah yeah yeah!
So here’s a thought for something slightly different. (Divergent, if you will)
What about a spinoff series where the pitches are rejected. You could pitch movies like the final Divergent film, Amazing Spider-Man 3, Superman Lives, stuff like that. Movies we know a lot about but that ultimately never got made
I love that idea!
Oh yeah, love that! Good idea
Yes! And the Fantastic Beasts films! 🙌🏼🙏🏼🩷
As a side note the one movie, I really want him to do that hasn't come out yet is Rust. No, it has not been cancelled, and no I don't think it would pay to wait for the movie to come out. If necessary, Ryan can do a follow up meeting after the film's released, but I think it would be best to have something come out right before Baldwin's trial.
The Worst Spider-Man Movie You’ve Never Heard Of?
Part 1: Divergent
Part 2: Insurgent
Part 3: Allegiant
Part 4: Detergent
My new tent
Part 5: Astringent
It's "Deterrent" for me.
Part 6: Non-involvement.
Someone else made the same comment above
@4:20. The annoyed tone and furrowed brow of “how does that help the war??” Feels like a subtle break in character where we see Ryans frustration watching the movie initially hahah
So, Triss is not only special but super special? Imagine if we had actually got the second part to the film finale where it was revealed she was the literal Messiah.
Biznatch Haderach, or whatever...
It's not enough to be the Chosen One anymore. You need to be the Chosen Chosen One
But the super special Messiah, like the first *_and_* second coming combined.
She was super special awesome
Wait, what? That's a thing in the movie we never got?
"So it turns out those little metal thingies are also mind control devices."
"Sure, sure. Why not!?"
This raises an important question: is The Hunger Games the only Dystopian YA series adapted into movies that *doesn't* have a "this is actually all just a huge experiment for some reason" reveal?
I dont think The Giver has that, but it does a little bit in the movie. The movie kind of has the vibes of that happening, but it never does i think.
Which other ones have that?
@@evankraabel5415Pretty sure at least _The Maze Runner_ series, also covered on this channel, falls into the "this is a nonsensical test" trope. I wouldn't be surprised if more YA stuff did too, but even as young adult I never liked that genre, so....
@@MusicoftheDamnedIts lazy writing, since every inconsistency can be looped back to "It wasnt real!" - its only slightly beter than "it was a dream all along". The better YA books dont have that, but they are not necessarily made into a movie. (Enders Game has that though, but that was probably the original).
@@impeeratorii Agreed about it being lazy writing. YA gets a bad rap, but it's really not helped by the fact that it seems like only the most shallow YA novels become mainstream popular and then get adapted into often even more shallow movies. I'm not sure if Hollywood just really love dystopian YA stuff or if that's really consistently popular for some reason or if they just happen to be the YA stuff that's a series most often, meaning that it's easier for Hollywood to milk such IPs.
It sure feels like some combination thereof though, especially when the only YA Hollywood series adaptation I can think of off the top of my head that *isn't* (intentionally) dystopian is the even worse written _Twilight_ series. (Funnily enough that too has its own "it was only a dream" equivalent. Thanks for barely spicing up a boring book & movie, Alice.)
"Fortress, if you will?" "I will not." "That's fair enough." Screenwriter guy totally has a crush on Producer guy.
I still have no clue what what that part meant. I listened to it 3 times and it still makes no sense.
@@ceno10101 The ship between the main character Tris (short for Beatrice) and the character Four, could be named "Fortress" (as in Four-Tris). Some may find that cute, and so screenwriter guy suggests this ship-name to producer guy. Producer guy, however, thinks it's kind of silly, and thus will not refer to said ship as "Fortress".
(or bug pokemon)
I thought in one of the videos one of them said they were cousins? But in others theyve had crushes on each other so idk. Pitch Meeting lore is confusing as someone whose watched every single one.
Are you trying to pull a dumbledore?
Huh, who’d have thought letting the murderous bad guy live at the end of the last movie would result in more people dying? Well, I really enjoyed this pitch meeting, as I usually do, and I’m looking forward to seeing the pitch meeting for the third and final film in the Divergent quadrilogy.
Someone else said it was going to be called Detergent.
I was surprised Producer guy didnt question Triss' sudden shift from the end of the last movie "No I wont kill her" to the start of this movie only a few days later "We need to go kill her"
Apparently, that's WG's fault. Looking it up, that part of the scene in the last movie wasn't in the book, bad guy wasn't in the room so Tris never had the chance to stupidly 'let her live'. Hence WG creating a plot hole with this movie w/ Tris starting out as "we should kill her".
This movie sounds like having a lot of nonsensical stuff too, so I'm curious (not really) how many of those scene's were WG just throwing in a fight or something just to add in some action even if it didn't make any sense.
I love how you mastered the "third and final film of the quadrilogy". On point. I tip my hat to you.
Hey look I watched the previous Pitch Meeting and even I don't remember what happened in that movie
'dystopian stylist skills' - you are a genius sir.
I took a deep breath in and was like.......alright any second now, then i open my eyes to see Ryan staring right at me
"Haha, going with a penis is tight!" I love Producer Guy's hilarious sense of humour! 😂
Part 2:
czcams.com/video/zPGcrb5_ZXc/video.html
I wonder if he's related to creepy guy that works at the company where they name things
It's actually a reference to a funny scene in the film Hector and The Search for Hapiness.
I guess that's better than half penis.
@@JohnWickJovanovichI'm gonna need you to get AAALLL the way of my back on plugging videos
You MUST do ‘Rebel Moon - Part Two: The Scargiver’ next, I’ve decided.
oh man i didn't last 5 minutes on that one, jeez louize i LOVE scifi, i'll tolerate ANY horrible scifi but... no this... the simple farming life trope just ejected me face first. LEMME EXPLAIN SUPERPHOSPHATE TO YOU, SNYDER, YOU INSUFFERABLE BANANA.
@@bradleyhiggs3824 Like surely there’s some other town somewhere than can sell them a quantity of grain that the crew of one ship will consume in a few weeks.
@@bradleyhiggs3824 I've found it to be a pretty fun hate-watch. It's not exactly a "so bad its good" movie like Troll 2 or The Room, but it has some other special quality that I just absolutely love (to hate.)
I can't wait for the other 4 movies he has planned for it, lol
What was particularly amazing for me is the first movie got shredded for being a rip off of a bunch of other movies. Part 2 though? It literally is a carbon copy of the first movie. It ripped itself off. The plot barely progresses a single inch further than part 1 despite being 2 hours of content. All they do is add in some meaningless background story about what happened to the princess (that in no way effects anything in this movie) and finally have the robot fight (although, he fights nearly just as much as he did in the first movie, so even that's not new.)
And while this new one doesn't have them go on the quest to recruit each and every hero of the superteam (that never interacts with one another.) This movie still has the audacity to hit us with a 'montage' of their origin stories (all while not interacting with one another. Seriously. It's absurd. Like one dude tells a story about how the empire murdered his entire squad to punish him. And without acknowledging dude's agony with a single word or body gesture, the next hero in line immediately launches into their 2-minute sales pitch for an entirely different product.) So it basically re-tells us the whole "team assembly" story line that the first movie gave us. All so that they can then have the same exact fight that the first movie told us would happen. (And did happen already, just in an 'unexpected' location)
Can't wait for part 3!
The “Revisited” series, especially the part where Ryan punches up the old scripts, gives me a whole new appreciation for how good these later Pitch Meetings are. Way to go.
"We need to find the very special one!"
"It doesn't say that though right.. that's like a placeholder line?"
.....
"Yes."
😂😂😂
I think a lost boys pitch meeting would be tight 😅
- Now that’s a good question.
- Thank you!
- You’re welcome… anyway
- Oh.
* I think this is the new way of screenwriter guy asking to get all the way off his back))
I love how writer guy keeps reusing his script pages for each pitch meeting. Recycling is TIGHT!
For all I can remembered of any of it, Insurgent could have been a sequel to the Maze Runner.
I thought it would have been so cool if, in that final Mockingjay Games movie, the big epic "Quarter-Quell" death match had taken place in a Maze, with a bunch of Divergents and Runners . . . being chased by sensitive sparkly vampires --
-- who are, in turn, fleeing from mobs of British schoolchildren waving wands and shouting in mangled Latin!
Watching Pitch Meetings seconds after they’re released is super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Part 2: Euphoria
czcams.com/video/zPGcrb5_ZXc/video.html
Coming up with new ways to say 'first' is tight.
Oh really?
yeah. yeah, yeah, yeah.
Wow wow wow
The producer guy is supposed to be bad at his job, but I'm impressed at his ability to remember these character's names as I would end up just calling them Miles Teller and Kate Winslet
I'm impressed at your ability to remember actors' names... :)
I hear Kandor and instantly think of Krypton's biggest city
Oh, vaguely remembering the plot of a movie that your watching a pitch meeting for the sequel of despite having only ever watched the pitch meeting for either instalment within the franchise is tight
What?! Missed opportunity! "COLONS ARE TIGHT!!!" 🤣🤣🤣
too tight for happiness
@@rnnyeet Winner winner chicken dinner.
All praise the ‘i’ that keeps a recital a recital.
1:24 I've been using this escape onto a train scene as an example of dorky female heroines since it came out lol it's worth watching the scene just to see how daintily and whimpily the main chick is skipping through the forest while every time it cuts to the bad guy (who never gets any closer) he's straight up olympic style sprinting after her
YES! This is what I think every time I see that part!
« I will never do that until a few scenes have passed ! »
Gold !
I don't think I've ever seen Screenwriter Guy having such a rough time explaining something.
FYI Ryan: that's what parenthood feels like most of the time!
Oh man, I LOVED the whole "Now THAT is a good question!" bit. 😂 I almost want to see that become a recurring Pitch Meeting gag.
The moment I saw Divergent, I understood that this is gonna be TIGHT!
But a definition of divergent is something that spreads out or moves apart, so it wouldn't be tight it would be loose. 😋
@@jw8160just like yo mama.. Ha gotcha
We’re getting closer to malignant pitch meeting. I’ll never stop asking.
Yes you will. You will stop when the pitch meeting is available. 😋
Ohhhh another movie that ends in "ant" is TIGHT!
@@jw8160 im sure out of habit I’ll keep asking 😂
Malignant was intentionally bad unlike all the other films by James Wong
@@corvus8638 good or bad imma need my pitch meeting
i didn't realize until just now how much of your humor style i've adopted into my every day conversation
"well.. you see these people.. they have... they have more than one personality trait... and that's.. uh that's how you stop war"
i've said that exact same thing before
😂
0:36
What makes it even more funny is that the guy who's her brother in this series played Gus in the fault in our stars
This presupposes an amount of knowledge about The Fault in Our Stars that I do not possess.
Almost as crazy as when Aaron Taylor Johnson and Elizabeth Olsen played a couple in ‘Godzilla’ (2014) and then played siblings in ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’.
@@stormtraitor6545 Matthew McFadden and Kira Knightley play love interests in pride and prejudice and then play brother and sister in Anna Karenina... I'm sure there's loads more.
Congratulations on becoming a dad ryan ❤😊
Hopefully Pitch Meeting doesn’t become jealous of its new sibling.
@@smallbluemachineI'm more worried that we will stop seeing creepy baby in the videos, now that he has a less creepy looking baby that looks like him.
Years ago I discovered Pitch Meeting and since then I haven't watched movies, only Ryan's takes on those, which is TIGHT. Saves time and money.
Well that is silly.
You dont have to watch all movies but there are lots of great films out there.
Maybe just branch out your taste more.
@@seanmatyas Agreed. Some movies are definitely worth watching. But, others, like the one this video is about, are not.
I just realized ive done this too, im not sure ive seen a single movie since Avengers Endgame came out.
You know there's good movies out there that Ryan won't make pitch meetings for, right?
@@evankraabel5415 You haven't seen any movies at all in the past 5 years!? Or just not in theaters?
having a relaxation and meditation segment after the video allowing your viewers to pause before moving on to the next video is TIGHT!!
02:25 - "We need to find the very special one."
Writing is hard.
I once had a huge crush on a coworker who was into the Divergent series. I was worried that if we started dating I would have to read up on and be familiar with that series so I could connect with her.
Luckily she left and I never saw her since, so I guess I dodged a bullet
Waiting out your problems is tight!
Doesn't really sound like that big a crush lol
Dodging a bullet is TIGHT!
What a silly thing to worry about.
Seems more like she dodged a bullet if you're that unwilling to... read a couple books? Or just... be ok with having different hobbies?
To me, the 3 titles in this series are Divergent, Conflagrant & Allegiant, because I always have and forever will forget the name of this movie.
Veronica Roth is like, "Damn, 'Conflagrant'... thats good. Damn it."
Not Detergent? I was pretty sure it was detergent..
Ryans Joke writing truly is one of a kind. Can only tip my hat to such fine work.
Producer Guy: Well why didn’t they just do this?
Screenwriter Guy: ………Anyway!
Me: THE CONTINUING!!!!!
You gotta think that the pitch literally went down like this with such a poorly written storyline towards the end xD
Remember how Ryan started saying stuff because we posted in often in the comments.....
"Hurray for Four for that forceful foray."
I love how happy he was when he was told that was a great question and then how instantly visibly sad he was he wasn't going to get an answer.
Being caught so off guard by the "4-Triss" pun that you have to burst out laughing is TIGHT
Drop what your doing! New Pitch Meeting!
Scheduling to post videos is super easy, barely an inconvenience!
Perfect! I've just been watching the Divergent Pitch Meeting for 4 weeks straight in preparation for this moment
Damn. I never realized how his green screen and camera quality improved so much. That's character development right there.
Day 11 of asking Ryan to do a pitch meeting for the new Wonka movie
I knew that my then overly cheesy childhood lunchbox saying that I was "the very special one" would ultimately one day allow me to be the only one to open a box that revealed to everyone that war was everywhere.
1:14‐
-_"Wait... if that technology exists, why'd they make those kids do those crazy drug trips in the last movie?"
-"Well, they thought it'd by funny I guess"_
_HAHAHAHA!!!..._ I'm _NOT_ being sarcastic _AT ALL WHATSOEVER..._ that line had me _LAUGHING_ for a few minutes there hahahaha
“That’s a very good question.”
Trying the nicer approach I see.
Hi Ryan! Please do a Pitch Meeting for The Room!
Part 2:
czcams.com/video/zPGcrb5_ZXc/video.html
There'll only be the pitch guy and producer guy in the room :(
They’re gonna put you in a room!
I dunno, he's gone on record saying if he ever figures out how to do a pitch meeting for the room he'll become free and the series will end.
Please do X-Men 97. I beg you.
I’d personally be against putting that on Ryan. I’m sure it’d be great, but that would likely require watching a good chunk of the original series, and then the new one to fully understand everything. And that’s a lot to put on one man. The guy just had a daughter. I’m sure he’s very busy.
This.
@@michaelanderson6394 He's definitely not going to have to binge an entire series to make fun of one season.
Does he have to do the other 96 first?
@@vikiai4241 I mean, that *would* be standard procedure.
That “good question” “thank youuuuu” was hilarious. Too funny!
The series may have been bad, but the Pitch Meetings have been good... so it was worth those studios spending millions of dollars I've decided.
Having to rewatch the episode you just forgot about because you passed out for breathing in and not breathing out quick enough is tight.
i cannot wait for part 3 of this film series's pitch meeting
Also, I love how producer guys facial expression was the opposite of what he said (that make's sense...with and frustrated/angry face), my kinda humor!!!! (more of that...all though not too much 🤣 )
Im rewatching these movies rn so perfect timing
3:03 Congratulations on that successful delivery.
4:16 that's some good acting actually
Pitch Meeting BINGO:
‘Super easy. Barely an inconvenience’
‘Oh my god!’
‘*insert phrase’ is tight!’
‘I don’t know’
‘Going to need you to get all the way off of my back!’
So, Divergent is a Fallout/Vault fanfic? "We ran this experiment because why not, also everything outside the vault is irradiated/rubble, so good luck now that we opened the Vault for you".
I think the author was just very young and possibly high.
Viewing a pitch meeting so early is tight!
Giving Ryan all the time he needs to take care of his newborn daughter is SUPER EASY, BARELY AN INCONVENIENCE!!!
a hardworking man doing his job just right ❤
Syncing your "Very special one" with hers was absolutely perfect. 😂
No.
It was TIGHT!
Having a Pitch Meeting video drop while watching another Pitch Meeting video is tight!
A Pitch Meeting for _Mad Max: Fury Road_ would be TIGHT!
Fury Road is okay though.
@@darthkek1953 Doesn't have to be a crap movie to get the Pitch Meeting treatment.
@@rickstaism Tends to be a film that is terrible, or was really good but flopped at the box office.
@@darthkek1953 Not always as it'd kind of limit the content of Pitch Meetings.
That would be too easy to make fun of. He likes to have a challenge.
This movie is so unremarkable that I not just forgot it existed (that happens a lot) but even forgetting watching the pitch meeting for the first part.
That's new.
Read the books, never seen the movies (and I'm probably never going to). How did they take an already dubious-quality story and make it WORSE? Like, I'm actually in awe. (Also, hilarious video as always--I love your content so much! Thank you for sparing me from having to watch the movie myself)
Thank you, Ryan, for recording a backlog! This pitch meeting with Divergent was a present from the past to the present. Well sent.
ohhhh, new pitch meetings are tight!
Love the Beverly hillbillies reference 😂
Only Ryan can keep putting a smile on my face with so much consistency.
"Now that's a good question!" - "Oh thank youuu" - "Anyway..." 😂
Yay. 😂 A new pitch meeting of a movie that I've never seen. 😊
Watching new pitch meetings while driving is super easy, barely an inconve
"I'm not saying that again. My tongue almost fell off." LOL!!!
This is one of those rare occasions where even with 2 Ryans explaining the plot of a movie I still can't figure out what the hell is going on.
Ryan out here doing the work of reminding us that these movies exist. Not the Lord's work but somebody's.
3:58
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm so grateful I only watched Divergent (which was quite fun) and didn't continue with the sequels! Top-notch pitch meeting :-)
Congratulations, George family! 🩷
Even while laughing about these movies, I can feel an anger inside me at how just completely terrible the writing is.
This guy:
- Not only listens to fans but actively explains his brain
- Consistently puts advertisers where they belong
- Has impeccable comedic timing
- Uses a piece of real paper
- Is North American
Show me a better content creator please!
What’s up with that last thing?
@@corvus8638 Canada is in North America
@@MBergeron31 What does that have to do with him being a good content creator?
This is one of my favorite pitch meetings. I love the fumbling of words after the box is open about divergents are… uh… you know… well… special… and uh… the key to everything. Thanks you Ryan! You always do good work!
P.S. Please make a Pitch Meeting for Warcraft. Thank you.
Congrats on the family Mr. George. Wishing you all the happiness.
