We're looking at the most iconic Mean Girls quotes in the original and the 2024 musical side by side! #meangirls #reneerapp #lindsaylohan #rachelmcadams #2000s #nostalgia #film
A large part of the point of the original Regina was to show the secret way that girls fight and assert dominance. It's entirely about being manipulative and smart, and it can easily go unnoticed
I mean I kinda makes sense when you remember the new Mean Girls is an adaptation of the musical. On stage, you have to make everything more dramatic and in your face so the audience can see it. If the original Regina acted the same way on stage, it would be wayyy harder to understand her.
Yeah that's my biggest pet peeve in the 2024 movie. Why did they make Karen such a caricature?? She can be very dumb while still being somewhat realistic, no need to make her basically unable to form a basic sentence.
It doesn’t work because the 2004 line is high key homophobic but in 2024 Regina George is supposed to be a queer icon and also Janice is canonically lesbian in the musical version, so the homophobia would be out of place.
@@_CallMeRex ik but making the plastics not homophobic changes the whole plot. I haven't seen the new one yet and have no clue why Janice hates the plastics without that backstory (besides them just being how they are)
@@ptowzapotato4157I think in the new movie the rumour is that she is a pyromaniac. I haven't seen the movie either but it sounds weird that they chose this of all things
Rachel's Regina is so subtle yet so effective. She's not the aggressive kind of mean, but more of like the subtle and intense kind, which makes her character even more terrifying. I love Renee, but yeah, the OG will always be it.
rachel's regina is more accurate to the kind of bullies in the 2000's. the 2024 version is more accurate to current gen z high school bullies. it makes sense
@@carinag4635really? I feel like it’s the opposite! I’d say bullying was way more in your face and aggressive in the past, and people got away with it because schools weren’t dealing with it. I feel like the last 10-15 years there’s been a big anti-bullying movement and today’s kids are more aware so the ones that are bullies have to be more subtle. But I also don’t know, I’m a millennial and I don’t know too many Gen z’ers in high school. I guess Gen z’ers are a little more in-your-face and outspoken, with a more morbid sense of humor so I guess I could see that too.
@slideshowgurl i agree with your last sentence but the way 2024 regina behave is what mostly "a popular rich girl" gen z behave at school,she arent necessarily act like a bully but someone with power, i see 2024 regina more like a sarcasm person while secretly manipulating you not someone who straight up bullying you in the face,which accurate to genz who like sarcasm
@@slideshowgurllol what. Today’s bullies are definitely not subtle. It depends on where you live ig. My high school was in a run down area, but it also had a special program that people would come from the neighboring city to attend. So you had a bunch of rich kids from the other city and then you had the kids who actually lived in the area. The rich kids were jerks and would straight laugh in your face. There was a lot of sarcasm and in your face bullying but no fighting. Everyone else was a lot more chill; if someone didn’t like you they’d just ignore you, but if you pissed them off it could lead to a fight. I don’t remember anyone other than the rich kids bullying people. They used to snatch people’s tests up in the middle of class and laugh at your grade man. And they got away with it bec they were rich and the school was run down so none of the teachers were gonna say anything. There’s tons of bullying movements, but it hasn’t changed much.
The actresses in the older version *actually* acted. They embodied their roles completely instead of just giving expressions and acting like they were trying to act. Like it's so easy to tell in the remake that the actors are just acting but in the original, you couldn't tell whether the character was real or not.
@@stanbalonot necessarily a goody two shoes, but she has more of a sugary sweet vibe to her, and i dont care if i get insulted for this, she doesnt look remarkable in a way anyone would notice her, so it isnt really believable a group of popular mean girls would look at her and think: she looks perfect for our group, infact, i doubt they would even see her. Of course, no offense to the actress, a lot of people look that way, and she looks good in other ways.
I kind of get it because people didn’t really hate lesbians now as they do in the 2004 that’s why the new rumour for Janis is that she’s a psycho or something
Are you being fr😂2004 is iconic but as a high schooler I would see someone like 2024s Regina George way more than I would see 2004s let’s be real who’s ran into someone like that
@@cherry_cream_soda yeah, but it’s more like another callback to the 2004 version, kind of like how fetch really isn’t slang in England in the context she uses it.
@@lindseyhamilton6099 yea the original one was Regina testing Cady, but the new one was like her sucking up to her to gain her approval. Edit, sorry I was talking about the wrong scene
I think some of yall are forgetting the 2024 version is a mix of the 2004 movie and the MUSICAL. Not just with singing, but ALSO ACTING. Some things are a bit more turned up because it's supposed to be MORE theatrical than the 2004 movie, but tamer than the musical.
Maybe because it's based on the Broadway version, but the new one seems very exaggerated and overly dramatic. The original was very believable and relatable because of that. They acted like real teenagers.
I LOVE BOTH! Renee fits so much the moment we are living now… the clothes, the way she talks as a mean girl. Of course Rachel is our iconic! But Renee suits the “modern version” so well!
I never got around to watching either movie all the way through... but just looking at this, there's something unnatural about the remake. Like it just feels like they're aiming for perfection and forcing it too much to the point where it just doesn't work.
well its not gonna be perfect. it’s a newer version which theyre going to adapt the movie to the new generation. not everything is gonna stay the same from the original
@@stanbtsforaclearskin It's still a remake, just a musical version. It's not like it's full of twists and turns, just a bunch of songs, and some adjusted content to fit the songs. Otherwise, it's enough of a remake for a proper comparison, and the acting is still...off.
The original one will remain iconic

hi guys I’m bored
@@UrfavCZcamsr4me too
fr bruh the new one js feels more dramatic and the acting isnt tht good bruh
Ik right!!
i think old regina is more realistic, calmer, nicer at face value but a backstabber
new regina feels more like a threat, angrier and mean to your face
A large part of the point of the original Regina was to show the secret way that girls fight and assert dominance. It's entirely about being manipulative and smart, and it can easily go unnoticed
I think OG Regina is a good representation of a 2000’s mean girl, whereas new Regina is a very good depiction of a gen Z mean girl
I feel like this Regina wouldn't be as popular as the one from 2000's (she seems way more mean, not as charming and cunning)
@@cz1754 Nah, I ain't praising a mean girl like 2024 Regina.

He so sassy on the new movie
The old 1is better new 1 is ass
"obsessed" is a totally different line. Like the whole point is the plastics told everyone she was a lesbian. So her bringing that up is a big moment.
Real, I was so mad they changed it
She's an actual lesbian in the remake so the dig was saying she's "obsessive" instead saying she's into girls
It doesn’t work because the 2004 line is high key homophobic but in 2024 Regina George is supposed to be a queer icon and also Janice is canonically lesbian in the musical version, so the homophobia would be out of place.

Everyone does, looked so much better in the original one

the wayt the new karen said "on Wednesday's we wear pink" is as if she's doing a jumpscare😭
Renee Rapp is more predatory, but Rachel McAdams comes across more ready to explode at any moment.
Exactly, theres a menacing undertone to Rachel's. Like something is off and you cant tell what it is.
The moral of the story:
Never fuck with the classics.

no it’s horrendous 🫶
truuu
Theyre not that bad cmon now. Other than Regina's actress and Janice's actress, everyone else did fine

I don't agree. The new one seems very fake and tries to be like the old one.
The new Damian sounds like a stereotypical black sassy side character. The "oh _hell_ naw" made me roll my eyes ngl
What made Regina so iconic was the fact that for most of the movie she’s nonchalant and passive aggressive.
