'Pearl: An X-traordinary Origin Story' details the beginnings of everyone's favorite killer from the hit movie X starring Mia Goth and Jenna Ortega. Goth takes this role to a new level and showcases the in-depth backstory of this twisted character. I watch it in all its glory, giving you my full commentary and review of the 2022 horror flick! - Krátké a kreslené filmy
Wait I didn’t even know we had to defend Pearl??? I thought we were all in agreement that it is an utter masterpiece and the best film ever created in the history of the world.
yellowjackets reference
I was wondering if I had misunderstood. Why are we defending something that's not getting attacked?
@@blueberryfrosting I can’t believe you recognized my username lol. No one ever does. Are you also a Citizen Detective? 👀
@@TheAfricanGrey yes!! honestly I didn’t know much about african greys before yellowjackets so when i see them i immediately think of misty :)
right everyone loved this movie i think it’s for click bait
Both movies convey the horror of wanting to make something of your life and the terror of that potentially never happening, and all three movies convey three different time periods of this.
X was about the horror of missing that time. Old Pearl lives in a sea of despair of losing her youthful beauty, her sex appeal, her time in life to achieve something. Maxine is making something of herself but lives in terror of becoming old, reflected in the fact that Pearl is played by Mia Goth herself in old age makeup.
Pearl is about the horror of that time approaching. How one is looking for a means to escape and the mounting dread of each escape route from the life you are living going up in flames.
I think MaXXXine will be about actually being IN that period of being successful. My guess will be that it's not all that it's cracked up to be, or it IS good but can be removed from you all the same, but I'm certain it will have SOMETHING to say about the matter the way the last 2 films did.
You get ittt
Dang, I don’t know how I never noticed that the film creator was trying to convince Pearl to join the industry.
omgg i same but watching it i did thought i was weird he was showing her illegal porn vids
Really?? I felt like it was so obvious as soon as he said: I’d watch you! Even showing her the film was sketchy imo
@@maddyharvey7414 how was it sketchy?... he was just innocently trying to fuck
imo X was just okay meanwhile Pearl is a modern masterpiece
Agree
Agreed. I enjoyed Pearl a lot more than X. My family and I didn’t realize it was a prequel so we saw Pearl in theaters but theaters-we watched X later and didn’t like it as much
The thing of Pearl for me is that at some level, she's a little bit relatable. Yes she's kinda crazy, yes she has a lot of problems BUT at the end of the day she only wanted to be seen and understood and wanted to persue her dreams as an artist but never had the right opportunities for it, something that can also be observed in X with maxine, who has sort of the same ambitions that pearl had. I'm really looking forward to see how they're going to wrap their stories up and connect them in the third movie.
not yall defending a serial killer. you woudlt do that with a male
@@madapigi1 chill lol that was not the point of my comment at all 😭😭
you are calling a serial killer relatable lmao@@its_isabellaa
@@madapigi1also ur acting like characters like joe goldberg, or like literally any male vampire character isn't glorified 😭 has nothing to do with her being a women
@@madapigi1it's a character in a movie, they're supposed to be somewhat relatable even if they do horrible things, thats part of making a character three dimentional
I like to think the reason he stayed speaks to the fact that he was in war and *also* killed people. Obviously not in the same way as Pearl. But I think they probably went beyond bonding over it and ended up encouraging each other to cope in this brutal way we see in X. You can tell by how they kill in X. Howards is usually with a gun or weapon that keeps him a bit removed. Pearl's is very intimate (stabbing) it's VERY intimate and lines up with her characters' desire to still want to connect with someone while she's indulging in the urge to kill; it's about feeling good. Also the timeline of how the 1918 pandemic literally traumatized everyone and brought out the worst in humanity (war and normalizing mass death of some of the worlds most vulnerable during the pandemic inspired a lot of Nazi's cruelty towards the disabled populations. Like how Pearl's Dad was treated throughout the entire movie, that's how the disabled were treated then and still to this day bc of eugenics.)
I was a fan of how the pandemic was it's one character that shaped the worldview of Pearl in such a twisted way. Loved it.
Thanks for this fun video and also for supporting the strikes! Not many react channels are doing this. Thank you for giving me and my friends hope who work in this industry! It's been a rough time.
the pandemic timeline here is a genuine threat right now ! like i as a disabled person live in fear, especially as everyone around me has stopped taking any covid precautions
normalizing mass death ! for sure
and also normalizing the slow breakdown of the body over multiple infections 😋
@@natalia4955 YES THANK YOU!! Couldn’t agree more!
I’m disabled as well with a severe autoimmune disorder, Pearl surprised me sm with how they handled everything abt how horrifying this timeline was and honestly still is for ppl, ESPECIALLY for the disabled.
@@natalia4955 also that little detail of how Pearl clearly doesn’t care, pulling her mask down in the theater to drink her Dads meds while the other person there coughs. Really highlighted for me how little has changed with this current ongoing pandemic.
@@VIRRO_42069 you have no idea how happy your comments made me
i feel seen and less isolated, thank you so much
the pearl/hannah montana: the movie comparison was not something i expected to hear in this video but.. she’s right
I feel SO MUCH KINSHIP for Pearl. The want, the need for something greater, but knowing that it simply isn't in the cards, is SO PAINFUL.
The "PLEASE I'M A STAR" scene and the following monologue hit me VERY deeply.
the end of her dance perfomance always gets me bc the only thing I can hear is "no emma stonee, please emma stone" with an aussie accent
11:34 so I looked it up Pearl’s age and during the influenza pandemic she is currently 16, in X she’s 77. So yea, I too didn’t pick up that the dude was trying to groom her and get her to be in illegal adult films.
I thought she’s supposed to be 19 in this and 80 in X. Which would make more sense with her already being married here.
Honestly, I would peg her a bit older. Early twenties or something. She was deemed too old for the dance troupe, and I had the idea she and Howard had been married for a while already.
the way i see howard is that he is was a twisted person in a different level. mindy even mentions that he could've skipped the war but CHOOSES to leave. he is salty when he kills that other guy fast forward in X, about being a marine and remember, after this movie he goes to another war and leaves pear alone yet again. he also knows he can't scape pearl or the violence inside himself. he does love pearl, that's why he leaves her isolated in the farm and doesn't want her around people bcs she is dangerous. after some time, i also think he accepts that she is going after other people to have sex and kidnaps them for her, just like it was the plan in X. they match, that's why he stays.
Can't wait to see the trilogy completed whenever Maxxxine comes out! 🔪
I love your take on Pearl being perceived as a “Crazy Girl”. You should do a deep dive on these “crazy girl” films, that would be amazing!
Trin saying Pearl and The Hannah Montana Movie are the same is so real
When you said Pandemic during the scarecrow seen, my dumbass was thinking Covid19 and that didn't make sense and then I finally realized it was the Pandemic in 1918 or whatever 😂
I think it’s safe to assume fantasizing about life on the farm with Pearl was the bright thought that got Howard through the war, and he also likely came home with severe PTSD, not to mention how beautiful he thought Pearl was. So him staying with her and ultimately contributing to her murderous rages, isn’t that surprising when imagining how this war torn man would’ve responded coming home to the aftermath that he did. It also sounded like he probably wasn’t that big of a fan of his family, wanting to leave the city riches for hard work on the farm, so escaping the world to live in delusion with Pearl is also tenable
This movie fucking slapped. One of my favorite recent movies in a while, and the "I'm a star" scene hits SO hard.
Honestly seeing Pearl’s mother, no wonder Pearl had issues and her mother out here blaming Pearl for her doing what she does to the animals but she threatened her husband 😅 takes one to know one mama Pearl lol. Anyway not defending Pearl but that part is so annoying to me
I feel like that's part of why her mom is so controlling and angry at her all the time. She sees parts of herself in Pearl that she has worked her whole life to avoid. The difference is that Pearl grew up in innocence and wasn't forced to push it all down in the same way. Pearl got to reach the part of being a teenager where you start rebelling and exploring while at that same age her mom was dealing with being a refugee, being stuck in a pandemic, and having to take on a lot of responsibility at once.
There’s not a day I don’t think about the X trilogy. Ever since I saw those two movies, I just fell in love with every detail of it,especially the connections between Maxine and Pearl and the constant fear of not being able to achieve your dreams
A24 is the best film house rn in my opinion. they have been putting out some artsy/scary talked about films! and they pay their workers!
Did Pearl's mom keep her from going anywhere to protect the world from her sociopathy or did her mom keep her on the farm as punishment? Pearl's mom isn't fond of her own daughter and has a cynical outlook on life. She probably wanted more kids but her husband got sick and ruined her life plans so she wants to stifle Pearl. Pearl is disturbed but maybe she would've stopped at killing animals if she'd been allowed to live her dreams. Notice she only kills things as a way of enacting her will on a world that allows her very little control.
Amazingly acted and directed period 'slasher'.
Mia Goth is a STAR!
A rare sequel that makes X even better.
Who doesn't like Pearl? I've only seen and heard good things.
Pearl is such a fucking good movie. mia goth plays her amazingly
I didn't know pearl became a joke?? I was so stoked to see it after seeing X and I think they're both great. Ti West did a phenomenal job as did everyone in the cast and crew.
the “no i’m a star” audio went viral on tiktok because people were saying it sounded like someone screaming “no emma stone” in an aussie accent
@@quornhubb lmao that's great 😂 love the movie but that line and the delivery are very meme worthy lol
I wanna thank you for validating the fact that Hollywood is a good show and that more people need to watch it
I was late to the Ti West train, but I am all on board for MaXXXine. I want to see what he can do with the 80's.
I enjoy the technicolor Wizard of Oz vibes in Pearl, and how Pearl is just completely insane - running on so much self confidence she's gonna explode if people don't adore her 🙃
pearl is literally the wizard of oz she’s dorothy her mom is the wicked witch the scarecrow is the scarecrow the wizard is the creepy guy her dad is the tin man and mitsy is the lion
I legit forgot Hollywood existed until you mentioned it. I can’t believe my brain deleted an entire show that I watched AND enjoyed
as a painfully average girly with immigrant parents i relate to pearl and the suffocation she feels teehee
the way I gasped so hard when you mentioned the show Hollywood omggg that's one of my favorite shows too I finally see some love for it 😭😭😭😭
No cuz u slayed with this one girlie ❤❤❤ great analysis
This is wild because I’m literally dressed like Pearl today. What a coincidence lmao
Finally someone who appreciates David Corenswet for the tall hunk of a man he is 🥵
The plot really is like the hannah montana movie 💀💀
pearl is so kind
Tri these intro edits are EATING! I'm loving the series and you're incredibly hilarious as always ❤
Really interesting take on this movie. 've seen this movie and listened to commentaries/reaction videos. Your observation of the projectionist grooming her was the first I've heard of that.
what if part of the reason pearl and Howard hate the corn stars so much in x is cause maybe after Howard came back and pearl gave him the ....rundown he explained that she was being manipulated by the cinema guy and they hate cornstars now ...idk we need a Howard movie
standard goose behaviour is exactly how my parents describe me
WEEEEE love that this came out exactly when i opened youtube for some relax time
4:05 My first thought was Eustace and Muriel from Courage The Cowardly Dog ☠️
omg??? am i actually early? love your content trin! your personality always shines through and it’s refreshing to watch x
hi trin!! i love ur vids sm omg hope ure well
the corn monologue is crazy….but i get it
love ur videos trin
Was in need of this
was waiting for your reaction to this, after x, cause I loved both of them
Wait there are ppl who don’t like Pearl? Ik it’s not as good as X imo but it’s so good still great film being more disturbing than scary. It’s a great prequel with some great acting from the new legend in horror that is Mia Goth. Maxxxine is currently being called a who dunit slasher which is very exciting so hopefully it’s good or even better than both X and Pearl to be seen as one of the best horror trilogies ever.
i hated X but ended up loving Pearl
@@girlsnightgirIsnight wym you hated X but loved Pearl crazyyyyy
pearl is far better than X
@@australia2754 how
referencing the hannah montana movie. that's why I'm here.
I think they should make a comic book Taking place between x and pearl. Giving them a Bonnie and Clyde like plot
trin saving my god awful day
the connection to the hannah montana movie opened my third eye
I wonder if they could have made Pearl's name also have an X in it. Like... Xaviher.
Finally some Hollywood representation 🤞🏼
I remember last year’s Halloween when people went out with dressing up as Pearl and Maxine, such a wonderful time it was
omg the adam lambert shoutout. felt 😔
3:56 I know this movie already and I wanted to say it so badly but a lot of people haven’t seen it yet, so I won’t spoil it also I I watched both of the movie
Love this movie
i’m so used to you saying something reminds you of glee i thought you were about to compare pearl and glee
Thank you for your thoughts on “Pearl”. This movie is so misunderstood and your analysis is spot on!
THIS THUMBNAIL OKAY TRINNN
Pls do a makeup vid on how you did your makeup in this reactionnnn
Please watch “under the skin” starring Scar Jo from 2013. I know because you watch mostly all movies with headphones it will be a more fulfilling experience. And it’s a really great film without giving anything away.
pearl is life, pearl is death
Ahh I loved both of these movies so much love them
can you pls make a video where you just talk about corn a lot? tysm
Would love to see you continue the A24 takeover with Marcel the Shell with Shoes On! It's one of my favorites and I think it's so underrated ❤
It would be interesting to see the story after peal. However, if he wasnt at war and was with physically with pearl during this, pearl would have never snapped like that
I dont think Pearl thought she was the best dancer. The breakdown is because she thinks its her only ticket out and after being told no she feels like her mom was right. Now she has to make the best of what she has
Shes definitely a bpd girlie so i dont think shes confident about anything she does
The movie is brilliant and the change in tone and genre compared to the original is refreshing as it's not a horror movie. I'll admit that I missed that he wanted Pearl to star in his films as well as I just thought that he wanted to sleep with her.
Pearl is my favorite horror movie character atm
When you said Im only doing A24 I subbed immediately. You are my tribe ❤
She just girlbossed a little too close to the sun its fine 😚
waaaaaait could she maybe have figured out that he wasn’t gonna take her to europe to be a real performer and maybe that’s why pearl hates the porn stars in X???
Pearls parents look to me exactly like the American Gothic painting
Watching this while eating and you start talking about liquid poop 😀
4:06 American Gothic by Grant Wood was my immediate thought
pearl best girl ever yass
I just caught up with this movie in 2024 and loved the shit out of it.
TRINN DROPP
1:33 tf is this beat why it got me movin like thisssss
thank you for bringing up hollywood omg no one ever talks about it
Trin Lovell, asking the real questions
u know what’s funny.. when i watched this in the movie theater i literally said “he looks like superman!” now look what happened😂
14:47 RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT i’m crying
ily trin
pearl is literally me 🤍🦢
Someone make a petition to start a Howard spin-off movie titled "Howard" based off his view 📣📣📣
I’m so ready for some 80s sleeze with Maxxxine
The best horror movie that I’ve seen in so many years. X was everything that Pearl wasn’t, Pearl wasn’t a cliche of the 70’s movies. To have it filmed in technicolor instead of filmed in the dark, In your face horror. The actress made this movie! Oscar please, the monologue was stunning
Nice!
The Original Story Of An Original Horror Movie Villain.
FINALLYYY YESSS
trin is so pretty ☺️☺️
i luv ur vids pls dont die
how do you record yourself as well as displaying the movie without getting copyrighted? Asking cause I'm hoping to get into commentary
fun fact I'm doing pearl's monologue for my final high school project! I think she deserved so much better 😔
Also I don’t need the reasons for why you’re binging my favorite movie studio. Imma just be here for it
trin loving hollywood and david corenswet is my roman empire
haha, how trinn raves about this man. Feel that! 😂💕
5:05 we need a Howard movie! I think Ti West mentioned something about a possible movie for him… I have a theory that the Howard we see at the end of Pearl isn’t the same Howard we see in X.. or maybe he’s just gay and just decided to stay bc he needed pearl to cover it up 😭👀
also I never thought about the projectionist in that way… maybe I was too distracted by his beauty 😩😩 but it’s actually so messed up..
Pearl is so good i sometimes forget that X even exists (hated that movie)
