Original Movie: Megamind - Zábava
I worked on this movie! The crew gift was a full size Megamind cape. Still hanging in my closet.
NO FREAKING WAY THAT'S SO AWESOME😭😭
Looking forward to see you become a villain
A super one
Thank you for making such an awesome movie.
Any word of a sequel?
Probably fake comment
Thank you for the movie
That queen of England joke has aged terribly but it still is the funniest joke in the movie for me imo. Kills me everytime
Are you sure it aged terribly? It seems like it’s true now, makes it even funnier knowing he’s right but also supposed to be wrong in the movie. Idk, I find it funny
He was actually right in the movie but by being ignorant. The last Queen of England was Anne from 1702 to 1707 when the law was changed and she became the Queen of Great Britain instead until 1714. Elizabeth II was Queen of Great Britain from 1952 to 2022 but was never Queen of England.
Yes lol it was funny before and now it’s still funny just a little dark.
Idk why, but the whole "Granted, you have talent." part always cracks me up XD
I guess the producer of the movie thought Queen Elizabeth was immortal.
I've seen a theory that the reason Metroman chose music is because it's something he's not instantly perfect at. It's something that will take training to master, he can't just rely on his powers.
I also like the idea of Megamind being encouraging to Metroman about the music because he wouldn't want to discourage others as he had been discouraged from being 'good' :3
@@TinkaDreamChaser Well, the "No You Can't" poster is kind of discouraging. :-)
@@TinkaDreamChaserMegamind is also an alien, so his sense of music may be very different to ours
That's been given as one of the reasons (along with things like flexible hours and being among the first to learn of trouble) that Clark Kent became a reporter. He may be able to type them up at superspeed, but he has to come up with his stories just like any one else.
@@dupersuper1938 _"He may be able to type them up at superspeed, but he has to come up with his stories just like any one else."_
Well, the man also has super-senses including quite a few super-vision powers.
Megamind’s disguise as “Space Dad” is a play on Marlon Brando’s portrayal of Superman’s father, Jor’El
That makes sense. All I could think was Senator Palpatine, but that's kinda random
The disguise also slightly imitates how he talks in The Godfather.
"Unfathomable" in Brando's accent is just golden. We can only hope that Mr. Brando was satisfied with the homage.
If you watch Superman from 1978 with Christopher Reeve and Marlon Brando then you will understand the Space Dad bit as well as the flying "date" with Titan and Roxanne.
@@ArthurX-eg8bc Well - whether Brando is satisfied right now is rather a moot point. He's been dead for a couple of decades now... If he has an ESTATE - I assume they signed off on it.
I love that Metro Man became Music Man, _because_ he's awful at it. This is a man who can fly, move at super speeds, has laser vision and super strength, he's been adored all his life and has been seen as all-can-do, and... *He's tired!* So what does he do? He finds something he's bad at, something that takes practice, and works on that. He found something that can challenge him, and gave himself an actual goal to strive for and work towards.
just like megamind, he needed the challenge....
Whenever people think of “amazing mid 2000s animated comedy” everyone says Shrek, but Megamind is absolutely slept on. A gem
Shrek got sequels, the minions got sequels, where are the Megamind sequels?
@@YourXavier I wish!
You don't need sequels for a masterpiece @@YourXavier
@@BullyMaguireTheAbsolute That's the only acceptable excuse. Good job.
that's probably because between those two, Shrek and it's numerous sequels actually released in the 2000s while Megamind released in 2010, together with despicable me. That said, I do agree with the rest of the comments, it's severely slept on and I probably watched it at least twenty times when I was younger and a couple times now that Im older. The comedy is amazing in it
Megamind was one of those "twin" movies with Despicable Me. Came out around the same time and both leveraged the term minion, albeit in different ways. Megamind was overshadowed but was a real favorite in our house back then due to PRESENTATION!
Despicable Me was a good film, but Megamind is very close to being a perfect film. It's a shame they were released at the same time.
I like Despicable Me, but this definitely deserved more credit. I remember so many critics complaining about it being too cliched when the cliches it did have were clearly done intentionally as a joke. The film spells them out.
Megamind > Despicable Me
I always felt like Despicable was more of a kids movie that adults could enjoy, while Megamind was an adults movie that kids could enjoy.
*Begins banging head to Welcome To The Jungle*
"Oh, you're a villain, alright! Just not a SUPER one!"
"Oh, yeah? What's the difference?"
"PRESENTATION!"
Fun Fact: A whole crew of animators was dedicated solely to the movement of capes.
Location Location Fact: The Metro City Observatory was modelled after the Griffith Observatory outside Hollywood.
Action Voice Actor Fact: Instead of voicing his character from within a sound booth, Brad Pitt, who is a very active actor, insisted on using a handheld microphone for his performance and roaming around the studio.
Don't Blink Fact: In the early portion of the movie, when Megamind (Will Ferrell) has Metro Man (Brad Pitt) trapped in the real abandoned observatory, look closely at the scene where the images of Megamind and Metro Man are being projected upon the buildings. Just after Megamind orders Minion to fire the death beam, there is a single frame where Metro Man fades slightly from the observatory screen and reappears faintly behind Megamind on the opposite screen. This foreshadowed Metro Man faking his death through superspeed.
Pixar: NO CAPES!
Dreamworks: hold my beer.
@@HaganeNoGijutsushisome theory said superhero cape helps with flight control and stability, maybe just like a feather on the back of an arrow
@@fajarkurniawan9434 That would only work if the cape was attached to their feet (or, at least, behind their center of gravity. Feathers on the back of an arrow helps because they increase the drag slightly so any deviation from being straight on into the wind will pull it back to that orientation.
@@StarkRG Agreed. A cape wouldn't help flight stability at all - it would detract actually because it would disrupt laminar flow and create an uneven torque on the neck of the flier.
Gotta love Hal as the Nice Guy™ way back in 2010. This movie was seriously underrated.
Fun fact: when Megamind, MM, and Metrocity are on the 2 screens waiting for the death ray there is a spilt second frame where you can see a blur of MM when he stood behind Megamind during his mid life crisis (the scene would have to be played back 0.25 speed just to even see the blur). That is amazing attention to detail that didn’t need to be included but am I glad it was
I can see it at normal speed, but I have to be intently looking for it.
2:15 The fan theory is that the warden kept him because that kept Megamind from getting cut up in some lab.
i realy love that they dont make metro-man just be an "asshole" you understand him, and he trully believes in megamind to do good, seeing him as a friend, i for real LOVE it, knowing that they didnt go trough the easy route of "oh, if the bad guy is good, than the good guy is bad"
Yeah evil superman has been done to death. Genre savy superman+elvis voiced by brad pit is the true new meta.
He was never an "asshole", he's a goody two shoes but he wasn't an asshole, he was a teachers pet but he wasn't a bully.
@@haroldcruz8550 Did we watch the same movie? Metro Man's behavior towards Megamind as a child would be considered textbook bullying.
@@Ambaryerno No it's not unless you are a snowflake
@@haroldcruz8550 And with that one sentence I know you have absolutely nothing of value to contribute.
Not to this conversation. To society.
Megamind is a gem, that (un)fortunately got shadowed by Despicable Me. There are no sequels or spin-offs and while that may sound sad it allowed the movie to be a very special stand-alone thing
There is a short film that I think is on the DVD extras.
pretty sure they're doing a series on peacock as a sequel
But if she wanted a movie similar to this one, Despicable Me would be it. I know there’s other villain to hero movies but I’m drawing a blank. Megamind is way better than Despicable Me, though.
there is however a video game
Some things are better left as what they are. And this is one of those movies that told a complete story, and had no need for anything further. The plot was wrapped up, every character had their story arc with a beginning, middle, and end, and were all left with nowhere else to go beyond pandering cash grabs.
I really like how this movie treated Metroman, it made him the "antagonist" for a time but showed he wasn't some dumb narcassist when it came down to it, and the dangers of a society placing all they have onto one guy both physically and emotionally.
I also enjoy how he chose music, something he is obviously terrible at, to be his new passion, specifically because he cannot be perfect at it. A lot of depth to essentially a side-character.
Just like Deadpool said in his movie: „You don’t need to be a hero to get the girl. The right girl brings the hero out of you.“
I hope this movie isn't forgotten, it deserves to be remembered as a classic.
That queen of England clip was used sooo much after her death it was pretty funny I’ll admit, people were ready with it for years
Megamind blasting Welcome to the Jungle was one of the best experiences I've ever had in a movie theatre. Full ass men were grinning ear to ear next to me completely absorbed into this movie.
This is one of those rare movies that, for me at least, gets better with every rewatch
Big Hero 6, The Emperor's New Groove, The Adventures of Tintin, and The Mitchells vs the Machines are all excellent animated movies - and Tintin and Mitchells have shockingly few reaction videos for how good they are.
I'm not too sure about the other ones, but tintin probably doesn't get a lot of reactions for 2 reasons. First, because it's not part of a big trend of movies. For example, once you do a disney classic, you do all of them. Once you make a kung fu panda or how to train your dragon, you'll make the other because of franchises have a huge common fanbase. Once you do a hero animated movie like despicable me, you're likely to do megamind, rise of the legends and big hero 6 as they are the same trend. Tintin on the other hand is it's own thing, so unless you make it, you're not really going to see demand for it. The second reaspn could be that the film and franchise isn't that huge in the US which is the main audience targeted by reacrion chanels, so they aren't seeing much demand for it
I agree, Tintin was a fantastic and epically animated movie. Definity should have more reactions.
A cool detail about Metro/Music Man. He chose music was because it was the only thing he wasn't instantly perfect at. He was so bored with life--music would actually require work and practice and thus gave him meaning.
This movie is such a blast and a great spin on the Superman and Lex Luthor dynamic.
Shame it was overshadowed by Despicable Me.
The fact that Megamind was forgiven for his years of criminality and creating Titan is a little difficult, but such a great movie. I loved that the police were so spoiled by Metro Man’s heroism that they had no idea how to act. Firing into the air, not trying to stop Megamind.
I'd say that within the context of this universe, him being forgiven for his criminality is justified. He was considered a joke by everyone, more like entertainement than a real vilain. He also probably never really hurt anyone, so again, it was more a fun routine thing for the city than a true terror. The only moment he became really bad wasafter beating metroman, and even then, he vandamized a few buildings but that's it. You noticed the police being unable to do anything because of metroman, but the same applies to megamind. Titan was the first true vilain they ever saw, one who didn't play a game but who truly wanted to do evil because he doesn't care. The ciry is defenseless against such a vilain. So, because they grew used to relying on metroman to be their hero, they chose megamind to become the new one because they can't live without a hero figure.
Also, except roxanne, I'mpretty sure nobody knows he created titan, and roxane knows he didn't do it for evil, so she won't tell anyone
@@docomega7862 Still, everyone thinks he murdered Metro Man.
@@johndaily263I always thought that the implication was that after Metro Man turned into Megamind in front of everyone people just thought that he was just a character created by Megamind the entire time.
Take that back. Despicable Me was great. We rarely have Father - Daughter movies much less ones this good.
@@docomega7862 He was not forgiven. His punishment was downgraded to community service to rebuild the city.
"Hal's Space Dad" is a parody of Marlon Brando's Jor-El from _Superman_ waaaay back in 1978.
But he's doing the voice of the godfather Brando. Probably because he watched it more often than Superman
My favorite part about Megamind's rise to "evil" is just a reaction to rejection and failure. It was simpler to run counter, and as a bad guy, he wasn't supposed to be accepted or succeed
Watching this movie really gave a major point of Megamind's character. To him, this whole villainy thing was just a game. He wasn't in it to hurt anyone, he just enjoyed the metaphors of hero and villain and zest in the thrill of the fight. If all he wanted was power, he would have just given it all to himself instead.
Tighten, on the other hand is sinister because he takes this seriously. He's not goofy, he's not funny, he's just a terrible person who only cares about personal gain and vindication. That's what a real supervillain looks like.
"Space Dad" was a parody of Marlon Brando's character in Superman, where he played Kal-El's father, Jor-El. The way Megamind talked and looked was very "Marlon Brando in his later years."
Megamind has gained so much steam in the last decade or so. I absolutely love it. It's well written with plenty of twists and gags. The humor is ridonkulous, the song choices were spot on, and its immensely quotable! I use "Ollo" from time to time and absolutely love Megamind screaming, "MY GIANT BLUE HEAD!!" 🤣🤣🤣
It's funny, I believe my brother-in-law saw this movie before the MCU, and he said that Iron Man reminded him of the 'PRESENTATION!' bit. Like how he'd make his entrances to AC/DC's 'Shoot to Thrill'.
Space Dad... hmmm, it does look a bit like Marlon Brando as Jor-El in the 1978 Superman movie.
You should definitely watch the original Superman movie. Megamind’s Space Dad was a direct parody of Marlon Brando’s Joe-El (Superman’s real father). Also this movie also parodied Superman’s flight with Lois Lane with Titan and Roxanne’s flight down to the bit where Superman lets Lois fall but that movie played it out as whimsical and romantic while this movie rightly points out that was messed up.
It wasn't "messed up" in Superman because it wasn't deliberate. That moment isn't played as romantic, but the rest of the flight is. Every moment with Tighten is shown as messed up because it is.
Jor-El* 😊
Megaminds purpose wasn’t to be “Evil”, he just didn’t have a purpose. Since he kept getting treated as the bad guy, he just assumed that’s what he was supposed to be.
"Well, good luck on your date!"
"I will!"
I don't know why, but this line makes me laugh out loud every single time.
This is the most quotable movie. Literally every line can be a quote
Sorry but, nope. That title goes to Mean Girls.
"Say 'crack' again"
That’s true about any movie, TV Show, book, song, speech, or conversation.
One of my absolute favorite animated films.
On the topic of Funny Animated Movies, The Emperor's New Groove is a MUST WATCH if you haven't seen it already. One of my favorite movies of all time, still watch it 20 years later
Yes
Yes
Brad Pitt as Metro Man is the most funny and awesome casting ever lol
Such a stacked voice acting cast 😂😂 wish we got more
Have you noticed when the appearance changing watch was used, the eye color stayed. Warden has blue/gray eyes and Minion has Brown. So when Megamind was asking to be let go to fight Titan you could already see it wasn't the real Warden. :) Or Bernard has brown eyes, Megamind has green. There is inconsistency in that though, when Minion is disguised as Megamind.
Great reaction to amazing movie, thank you for sharing!
One theory I’ve heard is that Minion is using a better watch that can also replicate eye colour. After all, he did need a second watch because Megamind had the other.
Another theory is that since Minion and Megamind are so close to each other, the watch is able to replicate eye colour.
In reality, it probably is just an animation error but it’s interesting to come up with possible diagetic explanations.
@@quakxy_dukx I don't think it was s animation error. I think it was deliberate to not spoil the surprise too soon for those who noticed the eyes. I really do like the advanced watch theory though.
This is unironically a fantastic superhero movie. Disney's Hunchback of Notre Dame is a movie I'd wholeheartedly recommend
The Space Dad joke is a reference to Marlon Brando's performance as Jor-El (Superman's dad) in the 1978 Superman film starring Christopher Reeve. Highly recommend that film, if you haven't seen it.
With The Godfather voice.
Love how Megamind calls Metro City...Metrocity like Atrocity...lol 🤣
I get the feeling that Hal Stewart's name is a combination of HAL Jordan and John STEWART who in DC Comics both are Green Lanterns for earth...both heroes. Even if Titan turned out to be a villain.
There are also a group of heroes in DC called the Teen Titans. Made up of the Justice Leagues sidekicks. Then there is "Space Dad" who looks like Superman's Kryptonian father Jor-El and sounds like a Marlon Brando impression who played Jor-El in 1978s Superman The Movie.
So quite a few DC references. I Think the copper weakness was making fun of Superman not being able to see through lead and Kryptonite which takes away his powers. Lol 🤣
If you have not seen Monsters Vs. Aliens ...it has a similar vibe just with movie monster tropes and alien tropes. Steve Colbert I think plays the President dealing with the alien crisis. Reese Witherspoon plays Susan Murphy and Paul Rudd plays Derek Dietl and Hugh Laurie plays Dr. Cockroach.
The "space dad" was a reference to Superman's father, originally played by Marlon Brando. One of Brando's most famous roles was The Godfather, which is what they were imitating with his voice. So the "space dad" was a bit of a double-dip reference.
Space Dad is a reference to the old Christopher Reeves's Superman movies in most Superman iterations his dad comes to him as a hologram or an AI version of his personality in the Christopher Reeves movies he was played by Marlon Brando but Megamind chose to use an older Brando from the Godfather with a puffy cheeks and the slurred words as a joke to the character
this is my favourite movie and one of the best examples of Good vs "Nice"
Hal was just a Nice guy who pretended to be good only to get what he wanted. megamind, was good at heart and never actually wanted to hurt anyone, he just got pushed down the wrong path of how to get what he wanted from life.
metroman is probably the most interesting character, since he was born with all these powers and basically put above everyone else, he had literally nowhere to go, so he went along with megamind for some kind of purpose, but it was just fake. so he quit and went to music, something he's bad at and can improve on so he feels like he gets somehwere in life
Thanks for noticing David Cross. I think you're the 1st reactor I've seen watch this that even mentions him and he's a gd comedy legend.
Megamind is perhaps my all time favorite Movie, it’s the Most Clever, Funny, Emotional, Relatable, and Brilliant Film with a lot of Unexpected Twists, the Message of Choice, and a Unique Take of Good and Evil.
One of the most underrated movies ever honestly
Megamind isn’t deaf (note the look he exchanges with Roxanne when “MusicMan” starts playing).
But there was a real villain out there to stop; the goal was to convince MetroMan to return to the job: this was _not_ the time to get sidetracked in a debate over his level of musical ability, or lack thereof.
"We're having the walls and ceiling removed"
He says, in a place without walls nor a ceiling
Lol
I LOVE this movie! It's so much fun and a wonderful homage to Superhero films. The reveal of how Metro Man faked his death was so unexpected.
Fun facts: The film's plot was based on the premise: "What if Lex Luthor defeated Superman?"
Hal's "space dad" is modeled after Marlon Brando, as Superman's father from the original Superman film.
Hal Stewart is named after two characters who have held the title of the Green Lantern, Hal Jordan and John Stewart. According to the original Master Mind script, Metro Man's civilian name is Wayne Scott after two Golden Age DC Comics heroes (Bruce Wayne/Batman and Alan Scott/Green Lantern)
The movie was so good!!
Also notice how Roxanne's outfit changes as she interacts with Megamind.
At the start it was Red the opposite of Megamind's blue..
Then in the middle it was purple and by the end it was blue!
Megamind’s “space father” illusion was a parody of Marlon Brando’s portrayal of Jor-El from Superman.
I just love how Roxanne treats her kidnapping, like it's just another day. It's also the first hint how long and often they did the same stick.
It's the perfect setup for when they discover that Metro man is still alive and reveals why he faked his death.
And while Megamind keeps the cycle going, he is making himself into a victim of the cycle, trapped, doomed to repeat himself again and again.
And yes, Metro man went easy on Megamind. Considering the speed he shows in the flashback, he could have stopped Megamind from escaping at any time or at least have him back behind bars in the blink of an eye. Thankfully no one knew the full extend of his powers or Tighten would have been impossible to defeat.
*shtick (or schtick)
the most underrated animated comedy ive ever seen in theaters next to lego batman
"Space Dad" is a nod to the 1978 Superman movie, where Marlon Brando (a famous serious actor of the day) played Superman's Kryptonian father and is mainly seen as a holographic projection who explains things to Superman and is sort of a mentor to him.
at this point, someone probably aready said it... but you know why metroman decided to become a musician? because it is something that his super powers cannot help him with... troughout all his ife, everything was easy for him, everything he tried, he scuceeded, music is something that one needs to practice to become good at, and that is what he wanted, he wanted to acctuly feel like he diserved something, he wanted to reach something trough hardwork! metroman is such a human character and i love it
Honestly there is just so much subtle care in every part of this movie, little background jokes and details everywhere. And with the excellent writing and animation i really wish it did better when it came out.
Space Dad is a pastiche of Marlon Brando's portrayal of Jor-El, Superman's dad, in the 1978 Superman movie starring Christopher Reeves.
"I'll just pack my thing and go!" is one of my favorite lines, gets me every time lol
We love Megamind in this house. It is so underrated.
I always love seeing you react to Hans Zimmer having done the score when you reach the credits. Part of the reason you see him everywhere, at least in this case, is that HZ is head of the music division at DreamWorks. So he'll do his share of DreamWorks movies every now and then.
21:39 that joke did not age well!!😭🤣
Ps - love your reactions!
That or it aged really well
OMG this reminds me, if you haven't watched Monsters vs Aliens. YOU WOULD ABSOLUTELY LOOOOOOOVE IT. i'm SURE. TOP tier movie
Your puckered lips look was absolutely hilarious! You pull it off so naturally and effortlessly its hysterical!
also another side note, you can tell by the colors roxanne wears through out the movie starting by the color red representing the full oposite of blue or as some would say it represents metroman, going to purple (a mix between blue and red) when he is starting to get to know roxanne and fall in love, to finally wear full blue at the end of the movie, representing the growth megamind had in her.
Bernard was dehrdarted and kept in Megamind's coat. So he turned out to be in the washing machine, because when they washed the coat, he got hydrated and turned to Bernard again
the fan theory on why metro man decided to become a musician is because it's one of the few things he can do based entirely on his own skill not his superhuman abilities. also one of the first movies to explore an incel as a villain. also i believe it's getting a tv series on peacock.
space dad is marlan brando as superman's dad in the christopher reeve movies
_"also one of the first movies to explore an incel as a villain."_
Well, I guess that depends on what you qualify as an incel. Some arguable examples:
The badguy from My Demon Lover 1987
Edward Nygma/The Riddler (Batman Forever 1995)
Boris (GoldenEye 1995)
John Doe (Se7en 1995)
Richie Gecko (From Dusk till Dawn 1996)
"The Thin Man" (Charlie's Angels 2000)
"Stuntman Mike" McKay (Grindhouse: Death Proof 2007)
The first time me and my family watched this movie was we were at Walmart and it happened to be playing and just started but we were leaving so we ran and bought it and took it home it's one of our favorites
I just realized the warden was there but younger when Megamind got on the bus. The man literally watched the blue man grow up
I've loved this movie ever since it first came out and it's always depressed me that it got so overshadowed by another villain-to-hero story (a vastly inferior one at that) that came out earlier that same year.
I love that all the mispronunciations that Megamind does is because he was kicked out of school so learned to pronounce a lot of words on how someone who didn't grow up knowing the weird pronunciation rules American English has. Like school. If you were just learning it you wouldn't pronounce the "ch" as a "k". Either that, or he is so intelligent that he thinks everyone else is mispronouncing them because they are stupid and it doesn't make any sense to say things the way we do.
The theory behind Metro Man choosing to learn music is because unlike every other 'talent' he has which he seemed to be born with , music is the only thing he wasnt born to know , he has to learn it like everyone else. Its really interesting
Somewhere in the multiverse is a universe where Megamind came out first. It was then followed by Megamind 2, a movie starring Minion, Megamind 3, and Megamind: Teenage Angst. Also, Dreamworks ended up buying a floundering Illumination.
This movie is the pinnacle of pop culture and memes
I always wil like how relieved Megamind looks for a second when he thinks Metroman is coming for him after the observertory expodes.(6:57) It clearly shows he has no actual intention to kill him.
Okay but why did I literally Pog when I saw this title and thumbnail? Lmfao
Nothing will ever beat the, "Presentation!" moment for me.
Epic
The "Space Dad" bit is a spoof of Marlin Brando's portrayal of Jor-El from the Superman movie.
Thanks for sharing your reaction to this. "Megamind" and "Elf" are my favorite Will Ferrell films. This and "How To Train Your Dragon" are my favorite animated movies. I'm glad that you also enjoyed it.
"Space dad" was a mix of Jor'El and Marlon Brando's Godfather
Between Megamind and How To Train Your Dragon, 2010 was the best year for Dreamworks until 2022.
Loved the reaction as always. If you're ever looking for another superhero comedy, there's always Mystery Men with Ben Stiller.
If you saw the original Superman from the 1970's with Christopher Reeve, then you know the reference to the "space dad", Marlon Brando played Jor-El, Superman's father. He is best known as the Godfather in, well, "The Godfather". Also, some movies that everyone seems to have slept on, besides this one; "Robots" with Robin Williams and "Hoodwinked" with Anne Hathaway. Both are quite hilarious, and not the story you were expecting.
The Space Dad thing was a reference to Superman's dad in the Superman movie from 1978. Also, I'm glad Megamind doesn't have a sequel because it's just fine as a standalone film
Megamind is fantastic. I've seen it several times and it still makes me laugh. We reference Arachnis Deathicus and "You were right. I was less right" a lot.
A master piece I’m so happy you reacted to this
I swear Titan also made me feel uncomfortable whenever he appeared on screen in the cinema.
And I was a child back then 😂
This and Up is my favourite movie from childhood. ❤
Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs and Storks are two great non-Disney films. Not as emotional but highly creative and entertaining
Literally the only Will Ferrell movie I can sit through
I'm no Will Ferrell fan either, but his performance in Stranger Than Fiction is brilliant. Well worth watching.
i love how you say metro man is condescending while he literally walks on water :D
Yes! I love this movie and is terribly underrated for its story telling and villain characterization.
I hope that you consider Chungking Express, it’s both cute and very “deep” in its feelings and I’m sure you’d have a lot to say about it! Continue on with the foreign films!
I had so much fun on your livestream. I’m happy to saw me several times in the chat! And thank you for your sympathies on my dying cat. It means so much to me.
The queen of England joke has aged like fine wine cos it’s true now 😂 that always cracked me up and it’s just been made even more real
Supposedly around 40% of the dialogue in this movie is ad-liber, and considering DreamWorks usually has voice actors record lines together I don't doubt it.
"Space Dad" is Will Ferrell doing an impression of Marlon Brando from _The Godfather_ . Brando played Jor-El in Richard Donner's _Superman_ from 1978.
A movie similar to this, in terms of good writing, humor, and character development is "The Emperor's New Groove". Please react to that.
Watched this movie back in 2015..underrated af,enjoyed every bit of it ,brings back nostalgia and your reaction was a cherry on top..you have a new subscriber ig😉❤❤
Even before the MCU peaked, this movie asked 3 questions: "What if you had the power to do good but were lead to believe you're evil?", "What if you had powers but you just don't want to spend your life fighting evil?" and "What if you gave power to an unworthy person?".
Very fun movie. It actually sets up an interesting premise, what would happen if the villain won, how would the story go after that. Would be nice to see a serious movie with that premise.
There are lot of animated movies - Megamind and Ice Age(s) are my favorite.
