Hocus Pocus is a lot of fun to watch and we're really glad we got the chance to revisit it for a movie commentary video. It's corny, campy and beautiful with awesomely over the top performances from Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker!

Apologies for this not actually coming out on Halloween. That was the plan but unfortunately life got in the way. Our first stream on the new live channel will also be very soon, promise 😊

No worries, thanks for sharing your fabulous commentary with us all the same! ❣️
Yes
Don't worry and I hope you guys have amazing halloween and I also love you guys commentary ✌🏻
I really want you guys to watch dead silence 2007 it’s the most amazing spooky scary movie ever please
You should watch dark shadows for Alice cooper!!
The Sanderson Sisters are definitely the best part of the entire movie! Midler, Najimy and Parker KNOW what kind of campy movie they're in, and ham it up gloriously!
Damn right. There's a reason they're on the poster 😄 - Stef
Also the film is well done in many ways
for example, its never stated but clear if you look for it
each of the sisters powers/abilities is designed to trap children
Mary can literally smell/sniff out kids, Sarah can lure/hypnotize them with her voice, and Winifred has the magic Knowledge to drain your life energy.
it makes sense that they are more than sisters and a team.
And they're three actresses that you wouldn't ever think would have such great chemistry or really even be in the same movie lol
I think the boy (black cat) is the entire movie nothing would have been done without that cat!! NO HATE!!
@@Princessleia73 it’s McGee from ncis
"museum shut down to lack of tourism" - This is set in Salem, Massachusetts, guys. Even the most boring and dull spots in Salem that have any significance to witch hunts make practically their entire year's operating costs during the Fall, but in October especially, from tourists. A witch museum with actual occult-related items would KILL there. Forever. I'd honestly recommend going if we ever return to normal.
Are museums like that open year-round? I would hate to go during peak tourist season
@@QueenCloveroftheice I’m not sure about now after pandemic times, but in the before times, yeah, they’re open year round. I went during the summer a few years ago when it was less crowded and you can definitely go to the witch museums and tours. They had a really great horror movie museum set up, too. Plus all the occult shops, the bewitched statue, etc, are all open during the year.
@@QueenCloveroftheice Ugh tourists. Sounds horrible.
@@d3l3tes00n Depending on when you go within the season the vibe can actually be really great! There's a really exciting energy. I went in early October with some friends on a special mid-week trip and you got the Autumn aesthetic and Halloween excitement with quieter streets. If you go out of the season though it's also still really really nice! I lived within 20 minutes of Salem while in college and visited often. The town is very walkable and full of really cool small businesses, beautiful architecture, small beaches because you're surrounded by water right on the coast, and the people are really kind. Definitely recommend!
To explain why Winnie goes after Dani rather than using another kid is because when Dani called her "the ugliest thing". Winnie's fatal flaw is her vanity. The reason she turns Thackery into a cat (therefore leaving him alive and able to help stop her) is because he calls her a hag. She's so determined to boost her own ego that she throws herself into punishing people who've struck a nerve by insulting her. Unfortunately it distracts her from her goal and ends up being her downfall.
Out of Context Stef: “It’s their wind. It’s personalised.”
So who's gonna tell them they're not spitting in the potion, but biting off pieces of their own tongues as an ingredient 🤣.
Also at the start... they didn't actually eat Emily's soul lol. They sucked out her life force, which is what killed her. LOVED THE REACTION! You guys always react to the best movies!
WHAT!??? Really? omg i never knew this, i wish i never read this lmao
@@dionnel8882
Sorry about that 🤣🤣🤣
😭😭😭Its 3 am and now i know that
@@dionnel8882 Bruh they said in the movie they were biting their tongues off, you guys don't pay attention.
@@SirKolass it's one small line in the beginning of the movie. Easily missed. It's not a big deal
Bette Midler has now added "I Put a Spell On You" as part of her shows. Two of her backup singers dress up as Sarah and Mary.
As a kid, I was rooting for the witches, since they were more memorable. I was always disappointed that they lost to the bland kid protagonists.
I support your position completely 😆 - Stef
The witches are the best 😁 - Sam
I have to disagree about the kids being bland. I think Dani especially gave a great performance which I find is rare with child actors. I do agree though about the witches being the best part even though I would never root for characters who want to kill children. lol
I'm an adult. I still support the witches. :D
@@BeeKee404 did you see her fake cry?
Once I realized years ago that Binx was McGee from NCIS I couldn’t unsee it lol yet he looks like such a baby!
But his voice is dubbed. And the guy that does the voice also does the voice of Max in a Goofy Movie
@@dancer004 yea I know, that role was obviously another great casting on both levels👌🏼👌🏼
@@jciarra exactly. I just consider it doubly iconic
I NEVER SAW THAT BEFORE AND NOW I CANNOT UNSEE IT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE
“Just gonna beat the sht out of them with his ponytail” lol have you never been accidentally whipped in the face by someone flipping around their ponytail? That sht burns dude😭😂
i remember some kids having to change their hair at basketball games when i was younger cause it was deemed too dangerous
“Sex and the City” first started in ‘98 and ended in ‘04. Six seasons. I’m happy for you, guys, that you Budz have gone this far! And I hope you’re feeling well, Sam 😊 Much love 💙
Thanks for the love, dude 😊 - Stef
Nice, I had a feeling it was ‘98! Thanks man, we appreciate it. Short answer is yes, and also no. Health is a bitch, honestly - Sam
@@themoviebudz1988 Sam, just keep being the tough and strong badass that you are 💪🏼 God speed, man 🙏🏼❤️
15:39 As a girl her age-ish in the late 80's early 90's... I never saw or experienced older/teenage boys picking on little kids. However, sometimes if a parent wasn't nearby during trick-or-treating an older kid might steal your candy... but that was more like a purse-snatching. They'd come out from behind a bush, swipe your bag from your hands and run like hell. That happened to my older brother.
Ok, well, I feel a bit better about that idea cause it always felt like a bit much when they did that in movies 😊 - Sam
That’s the best part of the movie, rewatching and learning new stuff
for example the beginning where the guy drops the book, it wasn’t a mistake, the sisters made the verbal cues because they knew people would cover their ears, meaning the guy holding the book would have to drop it, so they could incite their spell.
it was planned, that’s how clever Winifred is.
And the reason the witches didn’t die when they burned them, was that the black flame candle was still lit, and until it dies they cannot fully die.
Also the witches are from the 1600’s, they have no idea what pavement is, or indoor plumbing, sprinkler systems, and or car headlights
that’s part of the charm of the film is the reason the heroes can get away from them so often is becasue the modern world is scary and foreign to them, easily allowing them to be tricked.
I've tried watching a lot of movie react channels and you two are the only ones that make it fun. Yall have the right amount of cynicism and optimism and actually get invested into the movies and rip on them while pointing out the good and bad. Perfectly balanced. So happy that we're gonna get to see more of yall!
Thank you so much! We appreciate you noticing we try to be fair to whatever we watch as much as we can 😊- Sam
I don’t watch alot male commentaries because they’re sometimes pretty loose with how they talk about women (not at all a inherently bad thing- just not my vibe) but I just binged a whole bunch of your guys videos and i’m sooo here for it. Y’all are such DECENT people and your content is so entertaining and refreshing. Fave youtube find in a long while!
Thanks so much 😊🙏 - Sam
I agree. This is my favorite reaction channel for that very reason. So many dude reactors talk so poorly or provocative about women. It can be really off putting. But Sam and Stef are mature enough yet keep it entertaining!!! Truly refreshing ☺️
The sister's were actually immortal until sunrise due to the curse, that's why they didn't burn to death. They needed to consume the life force of youth in order to keep on living past that point
I grew up in New England and was Dani's age in the early 90s, so to address the Teenagers Harassing Kids Question: for most kids, teenagers have *awesome* power on Halloween (as they are either intimidatingly awesome or terrifying). The goal as I recall it when younger was to get trick or treating done and be back at home BEFORE the ~Bad Teens went out and about to engage in the looting of candy, smashing of pumpkins, toilet papering of trees, and general mischief. It'd be rare for older teens to just harass a little kid on a busy street right in front of someone's house, but I can see it being happening if there were fewer people around and they had some shitty half-costumes/masks on, so they could at least have a shot at bolting unrecognized while harassing a kid because they hate the older brother. YOUTHS! PS LOVE THIS REACTION! (And esp. Stef's commentary on the cop costume)
Have family in New England, it was the best Halloween ever. To add to your comment: I live near Detroit, MI in the Midwest. Don't know about bullies b/c a parent always took us trick or treating but for sure there were 8 yr olds out by themselves. Did see some homes the next day toilet papered, egged or smashed pumpkins. Don't know if that still happens. The night before Halloween in Detroit they would just light abandoned homes, cars and other shit on fire. It was a tradition for decades (Devil's Night) and some teens tried in my city for a couple years but that was short lived, thankfully😅
In Burlington Vermont, the night before Halloween was called Cabbage Night, because traditionally people threw cabbages through people's glass windows. My first Cabbage Night, local parents had their kids slash the tires of enemy neighbors. So everyone parked their cars in the back yard. Route 15 was littered with burning tires. By the time I left Vermont, things had settled down, and I, for one, was thankful.
So jealous of Americans getting to go all out for Halloween. It's just not as big a deal in Australia. It's kind of just an excuse for the occasional group of teenagers to dress up (more slutty than creative, to be honest), and drink. America has awesome holidays. We do Christmas and, to a lesser extent, Easter (and most people do something on Australia Day), though Americans do Christmas (and *really* go all out), Halloween, Thanksgiving, 4th of July etc.
So jelly.
Fun fact: the guy who wrote the Little Children song also wrote “My Heart Will Go On” from Titanic
My favorite behind the scenes fact about this movie comes from a Bette Midler interview. The host asked her why she took the role of Winnifred Sanderson and she said (note: I’m paraphrasing her quote because I can’t recall the exact wording.) “I wanted a movie where I could bring my daughter with me to work. A movie she could watch with me, see her mother. Most of my movies are not appropriate for kids. I wanted at least one that was.” So Bette’s idea of a great mother-daughter movie is a story about 3 witches who kill kids to gain youth and the main witch spends the movie obsessed with killing the little girl. I love that logic.
I adore this movie. It’s a Halloween staple in my house. Along with a Nightmare on Elm Street marathon (New Nightmare is the BEST), the Addams Family movies, and Bride of Chucky.
We definitely go all out for the holiday in the USA; you’re right. Growing up, my family never decorated for Halloween because my mother couldn’t handle gore and scary stuff. But the rest of the neighborhood went crazy. Especially this one house with this huge corner lot where the family would set up horror vignettes with living characters. They had the Phantom of the Opera playing his organ, and it would swing out when he crescendoed. And a copse of trees housed the Wolfman who would howl and lunge. Dracula would give you candy if you were brave enough to make it past the open coffin with a movie serial killer (usually Freddy Kruger or Michael Myers, once it was Jason) I loved that house!
When I get a big yard, I’ll BE that house. For now I just decorate the inside and get insanely creative with the Halloween meal.
Halloween is a great time to wear costumes and at this point, it’s like RuPaul’s Drag Race once a year because people come up with some cool concepts.
It's really catching on in other countries too. I'd never seen so many people (parents and kids) in costume, trick or treating in Sydney. Love to see it ☺ - Stef
It's funny that you talked about couples cosplaying as siblings, since Garry Marshall and Penny Marshall (Satan and his wife) are siblings.
WHAT 🤯
"What a glorious morning, makes me SICK!" Hehe I've seen this movie SO MANY times, it's probably not funny anymore LoL 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely iconic 👌 - Stef
@@themoviebudz1988 yes it is, thank you Stef
Fun fact the actor the plays Thackery and the voice are two different people so all the scenes with him as a person are actually voiced over. Thackery is voiced by the great Jason Marsden.
Jason Marsden was also in "Eerie, Indiana" with Omri Katz (Max)!
I will forever love the fact that Sean Murray (Thackeray Binks) grew up to be Agent McGee.
I’m supposed to be writing my thesis rn but you uploaded an hour long video on Hocus Pocus and it made me realize it could wait 😂😂
Indeed, procrastination is essential!
Well, I don't want to steal time from your thesis but I very much appreciate you prioritising us and Hocus Pocus 😋✌️ - Sam
“This kid falls asleep quick.” That’s what happens when a cat cuddles up to you and purrs up a storm. Instant sleepyland
"Not everything has to be serious."
I love that the same three actresses who played the Sanderson sisters are coming back to play their roles again in Hocus Pocus 2. :-)
the pure camp of this movie is something so many movies these days are missing, also love the sev'ral times hat lmao
I’m new to the channel and I was literally just stalking to see if they’d uploaded something since I subscribed. And it’s literally hocus pocus… nothing but love and respect for my new favorite movie commentary channel!
Perfect timing 😆 - Stef
Me last week
Welcome to the channel, these guys are great.
Also, I think you would enjoy a visit from Captain Literally. 😆 see below:

Welcome! It's a lovely community that follow the Budz.
@@nowthatisawesome5431 lmaooo literally thank you so much
Such a classic film! Side note, I feel like a lot of people gloss over the part where Binx says the book is protected by magic so they can't burn it cause I hear so many people say stuff like "why don't they just burn or destroy the book?" I'm glad you guys paid attention to that part. 😂
I love how you make a point of mentioning how weird it would be for siblings to dress up as Wendy and Peter Pan because the characters are a couple, and yet don't bat an eye when *actual siblings* Garry Marshall and Penny Marshall turn up to play a couple in the middle of this film.
But how many poeple know they're siblings...?
@@toxicginger9936 oh, I wasn't criticising them. I just thought it was funny.
Everyone who grew up watching TV in the 70s knows they are siblings. But they are playing characters, and it's a great cameo.
And unfortunately they both have passed. Also the man who plays Max’s dad committed suicide.
This movie scared the shit out of me when I was a kid (it came out when I was nine I think?), but now I think it’s hilarious. I also had the biggest crush on Thackery lmao jesus. Also that welcome to the tumble pun actually made me laugh super hard, so thank you for that!
ETA nah no boys ever bullied me til high school. The girls were always better at it anyway.
omg yes I thought he was so cute when I was a kid! xD
i love their energy so much, they remind me my streight friends that are super chill
I'm not straight but I appreciate the compliment 😆 - Stef
@@themoviebudz1988 wait what
Congratulations, Sam and Stef, on being full-time CZcamsrs!
Thanks so much! 😊 - Sam
Can we take a moment for the parents who watched this for the first time with their kids and got the question "What's a Virgin?" ... .... >__
I would just say it's someone who has yet to make a baby. Simple, to the point, and hopefully a good enough explanation to appease them without any further questioning.
Bette Midler is a comedy genius. Please watch more of her movies. Exhibit A: Ruthless People
Never fear, there’ll be more of her down the line 👌 - Sam
Yes. And Down and Out in Beverly Hills, which came out the same year.
I never played the ‘My Elder Sibling will kick your bum’ card because he has his own life and it shouldn’t be spent thinking about nosebleeds and other injuries.
I'm the eldest so I didn't have that card to pull lmao thankfully none of my siblings did either. Perks to being an older sister I guess lol
@@ColieBear18 😂 yeah as the oldest and only girl of my siblings, there was no way my brothers were gonna pull the “I need a girl to come save me” card
Hocus pocus definitely is a classic and a remake is not needed. Congrats on becoming full time youtubers and I hope you guys are doing well 🌞
Don’t know about a remake, but Hocus Pocus 2 is coming next Halloween and all 3 actresses will return. Hope it is a good one!
I only found out it was a sequel after we filmed this 😅 Very keen though. We'lldefinitely take a look when it comes out - Stef
@@themoviebudz1988 my friend lives in the town they're using for filming HP2. She's been posting pics of their sets and there's a notice for extras going up for the locals.
If I were on that side of the country, I'd be there in 2 twitches of a black cat's tail.
I had no idea that cats are lactose intolerant!
I also _really_ didn’t think that _that_ would be my biggest take away from this video, and yet here we are. LOL.
(Great video per usual, budz! 😊)
Ikr, when I found out I was “ohhh, it’s good I don’t have my own cat 😬😅”
Thanks Bradley 😊 - Sam
Fun fact. Leonard DiCaprio was the original candidate to play Max Dennison, but he was already working on Whats Eating Gilbert Grape and wanted to focus on just one film. So he turned the role down.
I highly recommend visiting Salem Massachusetts around Halloween. It's usually flooded with people, but it's such a fun atmosphere! New England in general around Halloween is pretty magic. Love this movie, but sharing a name with a prominent character drove me insane hahaha
Haha! I live in NE and from what I gather, locals avoid the North Shore like the plague in October to avoid all of the tourists. I've been to Salem and absolutely loved it, but I go in the summer when things are a bit more chill.
@@rooseveltrdPR I'm south shore, so I get wanting to avoid the tourists, but if you love Halloween, you've got to go to Salem at least once in the fall!
In the whole scene with the kiln I think the only reason that didn’t kill them is because of the candle. It was the only thing keeping them alive and as long as the candle was lit they could be alive. And that candle was going to stay lit until sunrise.
I used to go trick or treating alone around her age and never got picked on or bullied. Actually the opposite. The teenage boys were usually protective of us younger girls. A lot of them had younger sisters. We had to worry more about adults in our area tbh.
They 3 witch actresses all have a ton of live theatre experience. It totally makes the campy-ness work.
The movie is a great commentary on how heroic antics by teenage boys is not always a great idea lol
I probably watched this at least a dozen times every October as a kid. I still watch it every year for Halloween. It's so campy and I love it. With this type of movie the cast really has to commit for it to work, and everyone really goes all in, especially Bette, Kathy, and Sarah. Honestly Bette is a legend, but Sarah has always been my favoirtie because of all the random stuff she does in the background.
Yay!!! Congratulations on going full time! This news makes accidentally waking up at 5am on a Saturday worth it.
Aw thanks bud! Shame about waking up so early. Been there haha - Stef
Yeah, obviously we’re super stoked to both be able to do this properly now 😊 thanks so much for your support! 🙏 - Sam
i really don't understand why people hated this movie so much.
yea, it's not you typical horror halloween movie but it definitely has its own charm.
it will always be one of my favorites
I had no idea people hated this movie. I thought everyone loved it.
@@kiranolan7104 When Hocus Pocus was first released, people hated it so much that it actually became a Disney flop (I have no idea why though). It wasn't until years later with reruns on television that people actually started to appreciate it for the funny and cheesy Halloween comedy it is and made it become a cult classic
1:07:44 I'm sure that eventually someone will either pass the house and hear them singing or Dani, Max or Allison will remember that they left them there and make an anonymous phone call....eventually.....
Military Brat here, child of 90s. Yes, as a little girl of 9 years old, a pack of fellow military brat boys would chase me down and beat me almost daily in 4th grade. We were in another country, and my single mom wouldn't know I'd clean myself up before she got home. Oddly enough, we moved to another base in the same country the following year, and one of those boys later became my friend, as his dad transferred, too. He was also bullied in the peer pressure sort of way, to beat me up. But yes, packs of boys will beat a little girl bloody, when adults are looking away.
This movie is my signal it’s officially fall. And that’s the best feeling ever. This movie just feels cozy.
Edit: Sam Raimi actually produced the new evil dead. He said in his mind he imagined evil dead to be a brutal horror but in his words they were “broke and inexperienced.” Tho the original trilogy is fantastic, I really appreciate the remake. You can see the polish Raimi style, and him finally being able to make his evil dead vision, while never talking down about the original trilogy.
Also not so much small girls, but yeah you’d see big dudes picking on little boys. Cause you definitely get beat up for messing with a girl. But I’m sure some sociopaths exist who do it.
Yes. There were teenagers that would bully kids for their candy on their way back home if they weren't with adults.
Mainly because parents think that if you're over 13 you should stop trick or treating, but you're not really old enough to hold or go to parties.
Nowdays kids don't go around without their parents, so I don't think this happens as much anymore.
The reason the witches are so afraid of everything is because they're in a future that is unknown and scary to them.
I like how billy becomes happy when he sees Sarah and annoyed when looking at Willie 😂😂
45:28 I mean to be fair fire and/or an oven usually does the trick pretty well. No one actually ever said that they'd be alive as long as the black-flamed candle was lighted/whole and that they'd only die again when the candle fully melted, all they knew was that if it was lit they'd be brought back to life
"Mum's gonna go out this world the way she came in...Voguing" 🤣🤣🤣
Ok the reason the witches didn't burn? They did burn to death for technically a second time but the candles power last for all of Halloween night so it simply brought them right back to life again
This movie holds up so well imo. I'll be watching it every Halloween season until I'm 90 😂 Happy for you guys both being full-time now! Congrats and best of luck going forward!
HOCUS POCUS is so fun to watch. Glad to see you guys react to this
True story 😁 - Sam
Winifreds curse is her obsession with her own vanity, that’s why she sold her soul to the devil and steals children’s life force, to help keep herself young and beautiful.
that’s why she wanted Dannie even though they had lots of other kids, because Danni insulted her vanity.
and in the end that was winifred’s undoing.
the whole point is that her character flaws are the motivation for her curse and her own destruction.
it bugs me when people always ask why people don’t act 100% logical all the time, as if that’s how any human being has ever lived (surprise, no one ever has)
and it makes even more sense with villains whose entire character/moral failings and flaws are what creates and often then destroys them in the end.
Kid from the 90's here... my memory isn't perfect but I feel like it did happen that teen boys picked on little girls sometimes. Like the exit of my school could have the teen boys climbing on it and messing with whoever looked like they were good targets
I was Dani’s exact age when this movie came out, with an older sister roughly Max’s age at the time. No. I have no memory of any teen boys bullying, let alone speaking to me when I was 8 years old in 1993. I think that’s mostly a movies thing.
I was a wee girl bullied by teenage boys and had a big brother that stood up for me, especially if they pushed me off my bike or broke my stuff. He couldn’t beat them up though because he was over 18 but it usually scared them off when he came out of the house. (This went on from when I was 4-8 and my brother is 14 years older than me).
I’m glad you had someone there to help you get through that stuff 😊 - Sam
Hocus Pocus 2 has started production over a week ago and the sequel will be released on Disney+ in 2022.
To answer the question about Max not riding his bike away from the bullies; they didn't appear threatening at first.
Wait, he said that he had to wait for a virgin to light a candle, but he also spent the past 300 years making sure no one lit the candle?
Fun fact: Billy Butcherson was played by Doug Jones - aka the tall thin guy in Guillermo del Toro movies whose face you never see. He's been Abe Sapien in Hellboy, the fish guy in Shape of Water, and the Faun and the Pale Man in Pan's Labyrinth.
And the moths in his mouth were real; it was a special pocket rig in his mouth that they quick-sealed with glue right before the camera rolled.
18:05 I will not hear Georgian Era Fashion Slander. I get your point but we should copy the aesthetics, not the values.
Yeah I agree. When Stef was bashing on it, I was like “THE DISRESPECT!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m into historical fashion, thanks to CZcamsrs such as Karolina Zebrowska.
@@benarts2271 Karolina is great.
well you gotta think about zachary he's an immortal cat its kind of hard to explain that to a vet or the fact is he gets injured he ll heal quickly and that's hard to explain plus she always had to watch the house for virgins
I'm INSANELY excited for the sequel!!!! One of my favorite memories of this movie was when my grandma finally got satellite and my siblings and I were spending the night and we talked her into watching it. She was a huge Bette Midler and Sarah Jessica Parker fan and she ended up loving it such that she would dress up as Winifred Sanderson every Halloween until she passed away in 2008. It kinda breaks heart I won't get to watch the sequel with her
They wouldn't even need to keep hoola hooping. Just put a circle of glue all the way around the hoola hoop and dip the whole thing in salt having a thick circle of salt glued to it at all times. Then just stay inside the hoop and your good
Man 90s Disney was a wild time. Virginity, satan, public executions, and sex jokes all in the same movie 😂
I'm so happy that you guys can be full-time CZcamsrs, now. You two are legit, genuine dudes and you deserve all the support. CZcams needs more people like you. 💜
Thank God. Nothing better than eat my breakfast while watching you guys on my TV. Sending love ❤️
Thanks bud! Sounds like a breakfast of champions hahaha 😆 - Stef

As a kid during the late 90's to early 2000s, I've never been bullied by older kids or teenagers in general. They were pretty nice to us kids, some of them would even walk us home if we live on the same street so we were pretty safe.
I love this film so much. :) The sequel is filming right now, in Rhode Island. Bette, Kathy, Sarah and Doug are returning in HP 2.
I always tell my siblings to come get me if some one picking on them older or their age whether it’s words or violence I’ll handle it. But that’s just how I was raised plus I’m the oldest of 6 🤷🏾♀️
As someone in elementary in the early 2000s, bullying the girls at school was a very common thing for all ages of boys to do to all ages of girls. It only stopped for me when I had to hit them to leave me alone, which I got suspended for. Don't know about anymore but just thought I would let you know!
🎶 Come little childrennnnnn I’ll take thee awayyyyyy 🎵 GREAT movie!!
I mean, not many teenage boys were like this, though there were a few who got their jollies off of scaring the crap out of little kids. Not to take their candy, they wouldn't go that far, but just to jump out at them from bushes and hedges. Mind you, if they jumped the wrong kids, they'd get their asses beat by bigger siblings or pissed off dads.
This movie is a yearly tradition for me! It never gets old.
Funny story, I was in the hospital once (around Christmas!) and this movie was playing in the middle of the night. The other person in the room was asleep, so the tv was muted, but I could still hear every line in my head. I think I could quote this entire movie from memory at this point! 😂
America does Halloween the best. It looks and feels exactly like this every year. I love it, you all should visit one year it’s so cute watching all the kids and then the adults have a soooky night. Pretty much the entire month of October is surrounded around Halloween and then November is dedicated to fall, pumpkin patches, and thanksgiving. September to January in the states is one giant party
19:55 funny that you mention that since Garry & Penny Marshall (actual siblings) are playing a married couple in this movie & Disney just expected us all to be cool with that.
I couldn’t sleep waiting for u guys to post!!!hocus pocus it’s probably my favorite childhood movie i’m so happy you guys made a commentary for it also very happy for Stef !!
I hope we don’t keep you up too late haha 😊
We appreciate you 🙏 - Sam
One of my favorite movies ever
I loved the sisters so much in this movie. Not often when you actually like the bad guys in a halloween movie. Bette Midler was so amazing in this.
The actor for Thackery as a human is Sean Murray (McGee) from the NCIS series; Billy the Zombie is played by Doug Jones is Saru from Star Trek Discovery and he also plays amphibian man in The Shape of Water & Abe Sapien in the Hellboy live action & animated movies.
Theoretically, he couldn't exactly get adopted by a family, could he? Hard to explain why the family cat doesn't die. Lastly, Binks kinda lied to his sister. He didn't have to wait for a virgin to light the candle, he very specifically was stopping people from lighting it all this time.
I think bullying varies depending on where you live. I got bullied by teenage boys when I was in elementary. They never touched me but they made fun of my puffy curly hair and threw stuff like dirt and other substances to see if my hair would absorb them. Hell, I once pulled an earthworm out of my knots.
My older sister showed me this movie when I was a little kid and it became my tradition to watch this every halloween. When she passed away i spent a week watching movies we used to watch together to cope and this was one of them.
YES congrats on both being full time youtubers now! More great films to come.
Btw, yes, Daylight Savings Time changes the time of the sunrise. On the east coast of the U.S., sunrise is around 6:30 in the morning spring through summer, but around 7:30 in the autumn. During DST, we roll the clocks back by an hour, meaning sunrise comes earlier again, around 6:30-ish. HOWEVER, DST happens the weekend AFTER Halloween, even though the daylight has begun to change. The kids actually can't just "wait" for daylight, because it's not until about 2 hours after the time they woke up.
Bette Midler and SJP reunited in 1996 in The First Wives Club. Another great movie with a ton of big names if you're looking for movie recs!
did y'all catch the garry and penny marshall cameos as satan and his little woman?? some of my favorites
"Uagh Teenage Rage"
That line made me laugh so hard for no reason.
Oh what a happy morning! I love listening to you guys as i clean houses
Thanks so much 😊 - Sam
I like Max. He was a good simple and believable character as opposed to the forced unique characters nowadays
Im in a little suburb in West Aussie, and we go pretty hard on Halloween. My sibling decks out their house with Halloween decorations, has a mini wheelie bin full of lollies for the trick ir treaters and hundreds of kids go through there each year. Its awesome.
55:34 Originally they were going to have an explanation that Sarah's song only works on those who've eaten this candied crow the sisters make, something in it activates when Sarah sings and draws them to her. There's a sketch from when they were planning the movie showing Thackery finding one under Emily's pillow and of the sisters making them in modern times. And in the trailer we see a scene of the sisters in the supermarket buying the ingredients (using a barbecue instead of a cauldron or fire) and Mary snacking on baby oil, and we see them handing them out to the kids (those scenes were never fully released as deleted scenes on the dvd. CZcams Pattycake Productions created a video of it last year (they do a hocus pocus tribute video nearly every halloween) as a tribute. I think at that moment we can see Mary trying to force a crow into the bullies mouth.
Celebrating my birthday tonight (tomorrow it's my actual birthday) and I have 1 hour and 10 minutes to spare until the first guests arrive. Then I saw this video. It's like you knew lol. Anyway I absolutely love Hocus Pocus so much. I grew up watching it and I rewatch it most years at Halloween! Glad to see you enjoy it as well
