Haven’t seen a “this movie exists” sin in a long time
It’s deserved
Me neither, the original was a comedy classic, and I've rewatched it countless times. I don't envision myself ever rewatching this version.
This movie did kind of came out of nowhere
I commented I want to see "this movie" as the opening sin 11 days ago
To be fair, it is more an adaptation of the stage musical, like Roald Dahl’s Matilda was - and Matilda ‘22 was wonderful. So I’ve no qualms with this sort of adaptation as long as it hits the right notes.
By all accounts, this didn’t.
The biggest problem of this remake is the portrayal of the plastics. Regina is no longer a complex character but a generic bully. The point of them being "Mean Girls" is meant to parallel how Cady and Regina share the same darkness. Everyone has the ability to be a mean girl. That's why the ending has her abolishing the system.
I don't think Regina was ever complex
@@msjkrameyshe definitely had a mum with issues and wanted to be perfect herself, implying that she had her own insecurities
It was also about Janis being a mean girl. She manipulated the shit out of Cady.
@@lunamoon1239 That's true.
I was going to say, I haven't even seen this version and she is NOT Regina George. She lacks the power that OG Regina had that was effortless for her. I agree with the cute guy...she is a CLONE of the REAL Regina....and not a good one. Honestly, the singing in this made Cats 2019 and the live action Lion King sound ALMOST decent by comparison.
I haven't watched it because no one can remake the original. But she really just tossed the WHOLE burn book on the floor and walked away? Like the beauty of the original is the way she threw the paper around made SURE people would see it.
That part pisses me off because in the Broadway version she totally does that! And the staging is so cool, like let me tell you I was not aware that someone could make throwing paper around look cool but the actresses playing Regina on Broadway and tour did it.
Same here. I wasn't interested in a remake. No one could replace the original cast and make it as good. Plus why did they decide to turn this into a musical? Just kinda strange to me.
@@missgreeneyes2350 yes exactly.WHY the musical???
They should have just released a filmed version of the Broadway musical and called it a day. It would have been much easier and cheaper. Plus, we all would have been happier fans. I take comfort knowing that somewhere, another universe exists where this happened instead.
@@sjfrench8034 I might have even been fine with that if she did the whole 🧾💃
In the original, Rachel McAdam's Regina was openly charming, but catty behind people's backs. Renee Rapp's Regina is so nasty to everyone, that you have to question WHY she became popular in the first place.
Right!! In real life, her 2 minions would be her only friends, and people would openly avoid her. The whole school wouldn't be trying to copy her two seconds after she did something🙄 Taking that away really was not a good choice.
exactly what i was thinking. this regina can't be popular because she' isn't two faced.
This is the 6th time I’ve seen u in a comment section this month ur basically a celebrity to me
As a theater kid, this entire movie hurt my soul
same 😭
Bro felt 😭😭😭
me too and I love the broadway mean girls 😭
Renee rapp was the best part
SAMEEE
I’m surprised he didn’t sin Damien being in the girls bathroom and not saying his infamous “Danny DeVito” line.
Too Woke for today!
You know it's gonna be good when we get a "This movie exists" at the start.
This movie is honestly like if they just copy and pasted the script for the original Mean Girls movie and put in musical numbers to make people think it’s a different version. That “this movie exist” sin couldn’t be anymore correct.
It's not even a copy paste, they changed character behaviors and simplified most of it. Like Regina is supposed to appear nice while being two faced, that's what differentiated her as a mean girl and not just a bully. In this she's just a bully, it no longer makes sense for her to be popular. They botched many of the characters and the main point of the plot.
Tina Fay and her husband did write the musical for broadway so they kept it as close to what Tina wanted
@@Vincent_Beers Simplification is the name of the game today. To get the sort of audience they want to watch this, they have to.
plus the musical numbers are copy and pastes, they just partly changed them a bit
If I understand the geneology of the "story", this movie is...
the movie of the book of the musical of the movie of the book.
To say something was lost in translation would be an understatement.
The light situation in Regina's bedroom is giving me Twilight flashbacks
Same
As someone who does IT work for a school I can confirm 1) Yes a member of staff would 100% find that book before the students do and 2) Teachers can retire before the year is over(might be different in other schools but in mine it can happen)
As a fan of the stage musical, and a huge fan of Reneé Rapp and like 80% of the cast, yeah.... They screwed this movie up on several levels. Namely it didn't fully commit to being a musical, which is part of the reason why it feels like a pointless remake. If they committed to adapting the stage musical then it would already be 1000x better before you even tackle the other problems
the only positive i give this movie is introducing me to the stage musical and giving me the original Apex Predator stuck in my head for like a month now
"Reboot? Sequel? Requal? .....Seboot?"
"no one needs this much light not even Jesus" I'm dead
Hope you're ok. I'll check back in three days.
@@CinemaSinsHELP😭
@@CinemaSins been two days, better get on it
There were so many "Wink, wink, nudge, nudge" moments to the original, that it felt forced. There was a literal Greek Chorus during the October 3rd scene.
These are heavily present in all remakes. It's like, be original
Seriously! It felt like they just shoved a lot of lines from the og in as an homage but as a result some felt so unnatural.
That is the problem I had when I saw the musical. If you didn't know the original really well, the story wouldn't even make sense. It couldn't stand on its own at all. If it weren't for Hollywood's inability to put forth anything original right now this thing would never have been greenlit.
6:36
"I can promise you, as a guy, we do not give a shit about shoes"
Allow me to quote another musical, Kinky Boots:
"Asserting actual scientific reason, heels tense the leg and the hindquarter region, lifting the rear and making it appear pert and ready for mating season."
Hey! Thats the same reason the Chinese used to make women wear tiny shoes.
(Don’t look up pictures, their feet look horrific)
4:11 They went through all the trouble of making coreographies for every single background character, but the main characters and singers? They get the zoom in and out while standing still.
Honestly the worst part of this movie isn't that it's a musical, it's that it wasn't ADVERTISED as a musical. As someone who's a fan fo the musical, this is a pretty good adaptation. But why the hell wouldn't you target to THAT fanbase? A large portion of Mean Girls fans just DO NOT LIKE musicals!
My reaction to seeing this video being uploaded, "they remade Mean Girls?! But WHY?! Who thought this would be a good idea?!"
Same Hollywon't nerdcopters who thought that re-doing "Snow White", "Willow", and "Rahbyn Höœd" (directed by "The Director", lol) would be super hyper funtastic and profitable. 🙄
Where were you that you were able to avoid knowing about this movie, and how do I get there so I can also avoid cinematic atrocities?
@@originalcosmicgirl Simple, I dont watch TV, I have CZcams Premium so I never see ads, I RELIGIOUSLY use my subscription page on youtube rather than the recommended page, and literally the only social media im on is reddit, which i mostly use for tech support.
@@Novastar.SaberCombat willow was a secuel
@@originalcosmicgirlI didn’t know. I live in South Africa, come on over.
I didn't even know this movie was a thing until I re-watched The Nice Guys, and thought, 'huh, Angoulie Rice is a really talented, I wonder if she continued acting (beyond Spider-Man bit roles)?' Sad to find out this was the answer.
How were you here 11 hours ago!? The video was just released!? 🤦♂️
@@MichaelSuperbacker Probably a Patreon, they get early access to the vids.
@@MichaelSuperbacker youtube is playing with time-travel again, dont worry
She’s so good in Ladies in black
The real question is can she sing?
Jeremy sinning the Aquafina machine felt so good!! We had those in my middle and highschool. Went from sodas to WATER. First it was flavored in 6th grade and by 9th grade it was just water.
I HATED that. Like making us pay for….water. When there’s decrepit water fountains all over smh.
They felt having water as an option in the soda or juice machines as well as water fountains wasn't enough.even when some schools got around to updating the water fountains.
I liked the little reference to Ms. Norbury and Principal Duvall being in a relationship. Also, why would they cast Ashley Park, Jenna Fischer and John Hamm, but give them little to nothing to do?
The thing that infuriates me most about this movie is that the costumers decided to ignore the mean girls' rules for dressing... Regina would NOT have been allowed to wear jeans on a wednesday??
Lol as soon as I heard that line about lions I was about to say, "Not if hippos have anything to do with it!"
I must say the “scream singing” you bring up while Janis is singing ‘Someone gets hurt (reprise)’ is actually not scream singing, but belting.
YES! to the "Once More With Feeling" reference.
Fun fact: The actress who portrays Karen (Avantika) actually attends Columbia University one of the hardest schools to get into. The irony of that is hilarious.
Funny enough, the same thing happened with Brenda Song who played London in the Suite Life of Zack and Cody (also the dumb character). She got into Harvard.
wow, actors acting!
@denyol2846 guy no need to be sarcastic. Just a harmless little fun fact that I wanted to share. Have a good day. ☺️
The "centerpiece made of black clay" is even dumber because it looks like it's a molcajete that they're using as a fruit/produce bowl. It's made of volcanic rock and it's used to make guacamole and grind spices and stuff like that
It’s a mortar and prestle that originated in Africa where c
Cady is from
my friend was a background character in this movie, and he loves the channel, and he was super excited to see this video! :D

@@IgorcastrochucreThank you so much!
I'm really getting tired of all the remakes. They never hold a candle to the originals and every time one comes out it's like a giant middle finger to anyone who liked the first film.
Watch the filmed stage version of Waitress and try to tell me Sara Bareilles doesn't make it 10 times more enjoyable than the original movie.
The main problem with this is Mean Girls didn't need a remake, and it was always going to be worse than original.
It’s based on the Broadway Stage Musical. The problem was that it was a poor adaptation. Not that it’s based on a popular movie.
Exactly. This movie has no explanation to it besides “cash grab” lol
Just wanted to mention, that, thanks to to you, I now notice every lamp and candle in the movies I watch and wonder how many sins you would give it. It's fun.
As far as retiring as a teacher - they don't always have to wait until the end of the school year. But I'm sure it varies based on the school. ANYWAY, off to rewatch the OG Sins video of the OG Mean Girls 😅
I'm loving that so many got the Buffy reference, but no one has extrapolated it out: Its placement signifies that "Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Once More With Feeling" Is the only current inductee to the Sinless Movie Hall of Fame. 0:39
Ironically, I auditioned to do an on-stage version of Mean Girls when I heard that this movie was in theaters.
Also, another sin: Regina SURVIVES getting hit by that large-ass bus!
Also, also, the bus driver is getting fired for sure.
Also, also, also, SHE DIDN'T THROW THE PAGES TO THE BURN BOOK! That was like the one scene that made the last Mean Girls a decent movie!
already a mention of buffy tthe vampire slayer in the first 50 seconds... wow cinema sins
Lmao the Buffy reference killed me 🤣😂
Scrolling way too far to find this
@@jakeroatmeal but actually though. I did a double take and had to rewind!
"why did they think the musical would translate-" they didn't. That's why they cut most of the songs, shortened the ones they kept, and had all the songs exist in a music video parallel universe
"This movie exists."
I've been calling for this sin so many times on so many movies- honestly, I might have to call for royalties =p
I'm surprised he didn't comment on Cady's face cam perspective during the revenge party song. That made me cringe the most, seeing such a haunting angle of a face 💀💀💀
There's no need to repaint a Picasso. Why is this movie? Dingggg it
The stage musical will join Shrek and Legally Blonde as “The Musical every single High School does.”
Okay. Ill respect your opinions, BUT please also know that there is a Mean Girls Musical, and THAT is a better interpretation of the og Mean Girls movie. The music, character, plot developments and definitely the character developments are all better produced. This movie just looks like the music version put into movie form. I recommend watching the musical before getting into this. Its just as camp and entertaining and the og film as well as having deeper meanings and topics than this movie and the og.
TLDR: Watch the Mean Girls musical, and you'll have a better understanding of this movie.
“I don’t close my eyes for anyone but Jesus and the guy that stores a few harmless boxes in my attic.” 😂😂😂😂😂
That Buffy reference gave me life 0:46
I can't believe you just dropped a line from Buffy the Musical!!!!
I was just telling my wife about this movie! She will be glad she doesn’t have to watch it now lol
I think the biggest inaccuracy in this movie is that all of the student body has each others social media accounts handy, and that the stuff that they're posting doesn't get buried beneath literally millions of strangers worth of generic TikToks, AND that they're willing to IMMEDIATELY post whatever incriminating/embarrassing shit they find on their fellow students, rather than sharing it directly with the victim. I don't think anybody who worked on this movie has ever met a teenager.
Between this and the live action Little Mermaid video, I have a feeling that Jeremy is a dog owner
Buffy "Once more, with feeling" reference = +1000 likes!
As someone who’s not really a fan of Mean Girls, knowing this didn’t transition well from stage to screen actually brought out a thumbs up from me
Everyone to the classic Mean Girls movie: "Perhaps we treated you too harshly."
The classic has ALWAYS been well received and HIGHLY rated. Not to my knowledge has anyone said this movie sucks in any capacity
I've never heard anyone say that they didn't like Mean Girls. In fact, whenever I compliment a girl on her earrings, for example, and I say, "They're so fetch," I always get a response like, "Stop trying to make fetch happen."😂
@@mlw9195i know right?
Not to mention the pre-crack Lindsay Lohan. She was a very fine young woman.
The entire movie should be a sin on itself
Well, it did start with a sin for "this movie exists."
@@Waterflame I wrote the comment before even starting the video 😅
@@onepunchman6165 Writing comments BEFORE watching the video SHOULD be a sin in and of itself. **CommentSins ping**
The center piece made of clay at 11:20 is a guacomole bowl
LOVE the Buffy reference 🎶
The music was much better as an actual musical... There were a few cases where they switched who sang lyrics and I honestly think it was just so they had more than two people singing or some bs.
8:38 this has changed my mind abt cinema sins and I love it now
And we love you. Welcome to the madness.
@@CinemaSins ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
It’s been long time since I’ve been this early. Love all of you at cinemasins, over 10 years of watching and never a bore. I hope you all have a good life ❤️🖤
Glad to keep you entertained!
As I fan of the original this whole movie is a sin I would have accepted "this movie" as the first and last sin and the sin video ending there.
Your content vibe is just right, keep it up
He's been doing this over a decade
@@michaelfishman6082 It's a bot
3:15 at this point in the world, drivers Ed needs to be a mandatory class 😂 idgaf if it's a fun class or not nobody knows how to drive anymore
I’ve been waiting 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
Thank you 💜
I haven't seen the original, but I liked this movie. We could do with more musicals in movies
Oooh, Corey Flood reference in the credits? “Don’t you ever think it!!”
I do have to admit, the casting for Caydee and her mom is decent. Ol' Pam looks like she could have been her real mom.
“what is that yarn on her face” LOL
PLEASE do The Exorcist: Beginnings next.. we’re all dying for it!!!
I saw the thumbnail and the title and immediately did the Shrek smirk. Also… PERFECT starting line 😂
13:00 one of the most truthful things I have ever heard in life
they do deliver candy canes during classes, usually last period towards the end of the class
I'd like to point out that the Spring Fling had a BAND. After the principal said they couldn't get a refund from the DJ.
that horrible camera angle with cady in revenge party deserved ALL the sins
Holy crap! Did you just quote Buffy Once More, With Feeling?
Man these sin vid’s are amazing. So many movies I’ve never heard of that should never have been made. But I’m glad they were if only as material here
I did not expect the Once More With Feeling reference
3:41 OMFG MY LAST NAME IS SPELLED JUST LIKE HER NAME AND THIS IS WHAT I HAVE TO TELL EVERYONE LITERALLY EVER
How is cinema sins' archnemesis? (Aka the cat)
I didnt realize they remade this lol I was like wtf I dont remember any of this.
I wonder if they mentioned that they’ve probably think that she pushed her under the bus like in the other one and the plate
I thought I was going crazy and not recalling who was in the movie correctly until you said it was a remake... Oh
I loved the original film and I adored the stage musical. I usually prefer musicals because you can get lots of characters inner thoughts and feelings in a song which non musicals don't really have time to explain. Unfortunately this remake/reboot? Just takes most of the dialogue from the origonal film and "updates" it to be more 2020's and less 2000's, and then shoves in some of the songs from the musical, and they even changed who sang some things to accommodate the actors, Cady was supposed to sing "Apex predator", and it shows Cadys fascination with Regina and her power and how good it feels to be involved with the plastics, having Janice and Damien sing it adds nothing to the film. Also one thing that really got me is at the party when Regina is singing "Someone gets hurt" at one point when Aaron gives in and goes back to Regina he starts singing back to her and they duet whereas here they just had him staring at her and then they kiss. Why did they bother with this film? Broke my heart 😢
Best line in this movie is "it's ok. The bus pushed me."
Great recap, hilarious 😂. I'd like to see if the team would do a video on "Chain Reaction" 1996. Hilarious moments 🤣
Hippos are DEFINITELY worse than lions, and I applaud you bringing this information to light for the uneducated masses.
I agree with almost everything noted here but I do have to add that, in our HS, they did actually come into class to deliver candycanes or flowers. No points for that one. lol
I was gonna say vegetable stock…and then you pointed out the lemons…no clue x3
15:10 any empty room can be a band room if the budget is low enough
Idk, math use to bring me joy when I was in school!😂
Adding another extra sin for this movie existing
Hey man, some of us love math for reals. It's fun for us; we like to reason through things. We exist, dammit!
This movie is just "We Have 'Mean Girls' at Home"
6:35 Sin: high heels aren't inherently attractive or sexy; they make one's calves pop. Legs are sexy.
Awesome job!
Laughed so hard at Jeremy's attempt at the Lion King music
Because of you, I now know this movie exists. Thanks cinemasins
Knowing this movie exists is making my therapist rich
"I BEEN WAITIN FOR THIS ONE...TURN IT UP!!"
I’m gonna add another sin on the end credit scene for only existing so it could be at the literal start of every movie trailer for this thing
I was thinking 'What? how did I not even know this movie existed!?!' All clear, now. WOW.
Nice Buffy reference!
