people are pointing out the error of continuity of winnie getting the book from Satan but she never mentions that. it was just what Allison says and probably what the townsfolk believed. they confusing the guy dressed as the devil with the real Satan is probably a hinch that they never actually met him.
And as with most tales the people probably didn’t have all the facts and made things up. Add in that witches were feared and associated with the devil, that includes white witches, it’s natural something’s were wrong. Things like book being made from human flesh I can believe.
She did mention something to fake Satan about the book he gave her tho ...
@@gertrudepoundcakenstein4007 If we want to be picky, all she said to him was “What about the book?” Hoping he would help her. What gave it away to me that they never really met was that she believed the devil was Gary Marshall.
In the original they changed the part that explained that Winnie’s father was a warlock, Mary’s a bloodhound and Sarah’s the village idiot. They just made it that they got their powers from Satan.
Well what about the huge error that they turned into stone and crumbled in the first movie they shouldnt even be alive..
I actually think I would've preferred to see a prequel than a sequel
It’s fun seeing the Sanderson sisters back together again, their chemistry is still great. But, they really declaw them and make them less of a threat. The tone is a lot more overtly childish and comedic and much lower stakes. What I loved about the original was that it’s a great introductory horror movie for kids. Thackery Binx’s sister is kidnapped (and killed), the jump scare with Sarah in the bed, Winifred using her nail to cut through the window screen. Also strange that they didn’t choose a song that was more spooky related for their big number.
My Winifred is canonically vindictive and ultimately selfish. The implications of the original movie existing within this world is WILD.
100% agree
I really wanted a reveal that Alison was Becca's mom. And even if it was just a second of a cameo, it would have made so much sense. Especially because there is this whole theory that Allison was a witch herself.
Tbh I think a prequel miniseries would have been really cool with the sisters slowly turning to witchcraft in secret while they grow up. The trio is a great for both comedy and drama against the more solemn people of old Salem.
I really wish the original actors for Max, Dani, and Allison made an appearance. At least we had Billy show up again.
Yeah I think a prequel would've been cool! Especially since I enjoyed the child actors for the sisters
Dani wanted to but she had scheduling conflicts which prevented her from being in this movie
it felt like a Disney channel original movie era 2010
i got the same vibes. It gave me dcom but not exactly from the great era
It definitely didn’t feel like a Disney movie to me, especially with the subtle “head”jokes and the drag queens. But that’s just me.
Yess like the 2012-2015 era
Hell nah, Disney was way better than this back then. This felt 2020.
@@jmcb00 what were the "subtle 'head' jokes" ? also theyve done crossdressing in disney shows and dcoms, so why are drag queens too far
i totally agree about young Winnie being really great at getting the mannerisms down!! another thing i liked about this is that they kept the totally unrealistic giant moon lol. it’s unfortunate that Thora Birch couldn’t come back due to scheduling conflicts though :( i feel like she could’ve made it a little better. it would’ve been cool if she ended up being a witch or something, since that was her costume in the first movie. i also agree with what you said at the end about just letting them be evil. i thought that was kinda weird and the book suddenly becoming good as well lol
Imagine Thora Birch being the Scarlet Witch of this universe.
If you're not into the new kids or the ending of the film, I feel you. The ending may not be how the series should end, but I'm REAAALLY nervous about a possible 3rd film to round out the series & give proper closure to The Sanderson Sisters' story.
I think they did confirm a 3rd movie already. They also kinda left it open with the post credit scene with the black cat and another black flame candle.
I just didn't really care for the characters, I thought they were kind of bland. I really liked the beginning of the movie and it kind of made me want a Hocus Pocus prequel. This movie wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. It was nice seeing the Sanderson Sisters come back though. I still think a Hocus Pocus sequel would've worked a lot better if it happened sooner rather than later, but what can you do.
Yeah I feel like they waited way too long for a sequel! Depending on nostalgia can only last so long before it loses steam 🥲
I wish we could’ve gotten to see a prequel of the sisters. I want to see Sarah and Billy’s backstory and how they grew up and learned to control their powers.
I personally feel like this movie was about as good as could be asked. When you remove the nostalgia it’s not as if the first Hocus Pocus is a really strong screenplay or anything- it’s a fun cat & mouse goof that’s carried by the witches’ performances, and this sequel is much the same.
I hold them both in about the same regard.
I think the child actors in the first movie were more charming, but I can see what you mean!
I agree, the children in the original were a lot more interesting and were funny. Dani was hilarious. And max and Dani were a lot more fleshed out as characters compared to the new kids. You immediately understood max and who he was, his family relationships, feeling homesick & out of place. I zoned out with these new teen characters, their scenes were boring and their characters are very surface level. I understand if others feel differently, but just my own take away from both movies.
@@jas67angel I always found Max really boring if I’m honest.
@@ThePonderer I agree. It’s honestly a matter of preference for me and also how they shot the movie, I honestly find it so silly how so many sequels or movies attempting to be camp do such crisp cgi or have the camera/lighting seem so stark. Like this ain’t Teen Wolf can you please change the tone.

The father and Billy the zombie were more entertaining, funny and charming than the 3 girls. When your side characters are more developped then the main ones, there's a problem! I couldn't remember any of their names, favorite food or color, dreams etc. Nothing about thoses 3 was relatable. I remember Max's flirting with Alisson and Dani's sassyness! It was fun to follow theses 3 chasing the witches, trapping them in the school etc. Plus Binks the cat was a cute sidekick and his relation with Dani was adorable. I remember this trio while the new one has nothing. That's dissapointing 🤨😐
I agree. There was just something lacking in their characters and their relationship. I think what made the original so impactful was the contrast between Dani and Max, and the Sanderson Sisters as siblings. Even without the new trio being siblings, I just wish that their relationship was more developed. I just didn’t find myself routing for them at all really. The actresses all did a good job with the material they got though.
OK. I have some thoughts about the sequel. This will be long so apologies in advance. I feel like especially after some advice I heard, to really enjoy the sequel, you have to look at it as not so much an actual sequel but more as an homage to the first film which I can see with the way they brought back Sarah's "amuk amuk amuk" line, the costume contest, the flashbacks, etc and also how they make the witches more sympathetic. With that in mind, I actually had a lot of fun watching this movie. Loved seeing them reprise their roles.
I will say though that I am really disappointed they didn't bring back the original kids. I would've loved to see them as adults. I think I heard Thora Birch who plays Dani was going to come back but couldn't due to scheduling.
I was actually pleasantly surprised by the three teens performances. I know you saw them as boring which I can kinda agree with but I actually also thought they did a decent job and I didn't find them as cringey as I thought I was going to. I will say though that I wasn't a huge fan of the main girl being a witch. Just seemed very random.
Also personally, I did get the vibe from the first movie that Winnie did care about her sisters. Just not in an obvious way but more in a "you're annoying and stupid but I still love you" sort of way so it didn't seem too far fetched that she showed care for them in this movie. Like when she tried to suck Max's soul for herself, I saw it as more "I'm desperate so I need to what I can since it's almost sunrise and I'm on hollow ground."
If anyone wants a follow up involving max, allison, and dani, there is a book about max and allison's kid and from what i've heard, sounds decent
Omg they had a kid?? No waaayyyy, that experience bonded them for life hahaha
A lot of people weren't fans of this movie (which is understandable) but I personally really enjoy it! Of course, the original is always the best, but I am happy with how the second turned out! I'm a very very easy to please person though when it comes to movies and that combined with my obsession with the original Hocus Pocus, I couldn't help but to enjoy it.
I'm glad it wasn't as cringey (in my opinion) as I was expecting to be, I was sceptical before I watched it at first. And I do love the songs choices, the witches killed it! It was very comforting to see these 3 amazing witches come back!
I do wish one of the songs was more of a creepy song like I Put A Spell On You and Come Little Children. But otherwise, it could have been a LOT worse.
Yes Winnie was hogging all of Max’s life force but I felt like that was a life or death situation (literally) and she was desperate at the time. When Emily died Winnie shares her with her sisters and they call her generous.
I don't see why evil people cant also have people who they care about more than their power. Its not as if every evil person in history was without family or loved ones, they just had goalsnthat involved the mass murder of others.
You can be evil and still want love in my personal opinion. Plus its not as if they were trying to redeem the sisters, they are without a doubt still evil, children murdering, sadistic people they were in the original. Its just Winnie was unwilling to have all that power atbthe cost of forever being without the ones she's had beside heher entire life
I was dreading your response to this movie because I also watched this blind avoiding trailers and promo pictures and everything. I'm gonna give thoughts at the end of the video.
Edited in comments
The jump to singing into the woods is how I felt. Best part of this movie was young Winnie. Cheering on the one friend for landing a himbo was a mood.
This movie felt like a Disney Channel original movie. It's banking so hard on nostalgia and I don't even remember any of the added character names.
And if I had to guess why Winnie's song was changed, it's probably because after 30 years, Bette Midler's voice isn't as high as it used to be. If you look up her singing I Put a Spell on You in concert, she has to lower the song quite significantly, so it's understandable. But they picked an AWFUL song.
On the subject of returning cast, they ONLY reached out to Thora Birch who played Dani but by the time production started they had gone a different direction and didn't want to wait for her because she had started filming something else. If you see her talk about it in interviews, she's FUMING while trying to keep a straight face.
The Sanderson sisters were great, the 3 teenagers I wanted to really like but I just didn’t care for them because let’s be honest there was no threat that made me scared for their lives so what’s the point if they have magic too to fight back 🤨 when Mary said cowabunga I almost turned it off, she’s supposed to be from from the 16th century 😂 I did laugh when Winnie said spread out and Sarah literally spread out that did make me chuckle though the way winnie was looking at her 😆
Omg you're so right, there was no real threat! Ppl actually died in the first movie, so the witches felt scarier 😭
The kid actresses were so perfect that I would be down to see a prequel mini series just following them as they terrorize the town!
Your hair & outfit in this video is SO cute btw!!
Personally, I like the humanization of villains as long as it doesn’t drift into redemption for characters that simply shouldn’t be redeemed and I think this had the potential to do that, but didn’t commit. I think having the others rebel against Winnie when they got power and showing how much they had changed from 3 sisters who just wanted to stay together to 3 colleagues who resent each other but stay together bc they have to in order to keep their power and they’ll do anything to keep it, including hurting kids like they were when all this started, I think an arc like that could’ve been really good. Like basically, show the resentment building throughout the movie where it’s like through collecting these ingredients and facing their past, the others realize that Winnie doesn’t respect them anymore. Like, even if she was rude to them as kids, it was different. Less. And now she doesn’t pull punches anymore. She blames everything on them even tho she’s made just as many mistakes as they have, if not more. And by the end of the movie, when they complete the power spell and are all finally on the same magical level, they fight each other and maybe Winnie straight up kills one of them (likely Sarah bc she’s the youngest and it would probably hit the hardest to see someone kill their baby sister) and thats when she starts to feel regret for real. And then maybe Mary gives too much trying to bring Sarah back even after she’s exhausted from battling Winnie and she dies too. And now Winnie’s like really feeling like shit and she starts literally tearing everything apart in her grief, like apocalypse vibes, earthquakes and storm clouds and sink holes and stuff, and Becca and them have to do the unification spell to stop her and when they finish it, she loses her powers and is still raging, trying to physically attack them and screaming at them “what have you done??” But then they explain, and we see her go through a dozen emotions until finally, she settles into bittersweet resignation and basically just goes “when I discovered my power, I only wanted them so that I could stay with my sisters. I don’t know when I forgot that... so, If losing that power is what it takes to return me to them, so be it.” And then like a quick threat to Cassie of like, you’d better hope no one else finds a way to bring me back bc the next time, I won’t need you alive and revenge and all that. I think this sort of story line, with a much more true to the original, spooky tone AND NO RANDOM FORGIVENESS FOR A GROWN MAN WHO TRICKED TEENAGE GIRLS (about whose s*x lives he had been making guesses) INTO REVIVING HOMICIDAL KID-KILLERS RIGHT NEXT TO THEMSELVES!!!! Like, say w/e you want bro, but that’s at least reckless endangerment if not attempted murder. I absolutely hated that plot line and would’ve much rather seen someone who actually made sense being the sisters back. Like, maybe have their witch mom from the beginning show up and do it! Or at the very least have the person doing it genuinely AND REASONABLY believe that the sisters were innocent bc of stigmas against witches back then and the actual reasons that women were accused of cannibalism esp of babies in actual witch hunts throughout history (it was bc they were helping folks stop being pregnant and that’s how they explained away the potions and disappearing fetuses), bc I mean yeah, it isn’t great stigmatizing witches bc there are actual ppl who may be culturally offended by that and bc the ppl accused of being witches back when all these tropes started were innocent and persecuted, so yeah. Anyway, super long winded, but basically would’ve been better if they didn’t try a half-hearted redemption arc and also leave one villain completely unaffected and facing zero consequences
I thought that rendition of "One Way or Another" was so fun!
I loved this just as much as the first movie. If there was anyone I would bring back, it would be the younger sister from the first movie, she was funny😂
13:00 I had a look at an earlier version of the script of the first movie and Allison thought something similar. I guess she figured that the stories about them consuming the souls of children was something that the townsfolk spread as a rumour to tear down powerful women. Of course once they returned she realised this time it was actually true.
Ngl I used to confuse o.g. Hocus Pocus with the olsen twins Double, double toil and trouble witch also came out in 1993. I think i saw it more frequently, and remember it more vividly too. But this was a good wholesome family flick. ✌Happy Spooktober everyone. 👻🧙♀️🕷
i love the way she did her hair lookin like Princess Leia 💜💚❤
the cheesy vs camp statement is this sequel in a nutshell lol you said it perfectly. i didn’t mind this this movie it was cute for what it was. i agree it started strong but went downhill, and the songs weren’t it. but the thing that annoyed me the most was the witches acting like they didn’t know about the salt even though it was addressed in the first movie
I loved the sequel! And your reaction!
Cheesy netflix or Disney Channel movie was the vibe i was getting. I think all of the excitement and hype around it unintentionally made my expectations higher despite not watching any trailers or anything, but it felt disappointing to me. I was kind of bored for a good portion. And to be quite honest, the ending felt SO out of character for Winnifred. It just felt off and I feel like the Winnifred we met in the first wouldn't exactly have reacted like that. Also would have enjoyed cameos from the original cast. Like what if Ice was a cop but got freaked when Winnifred came back lol?
And i also thought the girl who played young Winnifred was younger than 16, too
YEAH Winifred in the first movie was so much more evil, they declawed her 😭😭
I mean their home was already turned into a gift shop.
Actually there is a mill house in Volant, PA that was turned into a gift shop. Its surprisingly not unusual.
The sequel seems to leave us with more questions than answers. I haven't watched it myself so maybe I missed parts of the context, but yeah it seems like they could have done more to build up that relationship between the sisters instead of implying it was always there when there hasn't been any interactions in the last movie as proof. Also, your outfit is so cute! the hair colour and style, the earrings, the striped mockneck, adorable!
They need to make a prequel Hocus Pocus series with that actress she’s amazing!
Honestly I wish we got a whole movie of just them as kids, or they past stories but no “good kids protagonists” involved
I do like how they expanded on the Sanderson sisters, I mean I'm a sucker for villain backstories and this one shows how Winnie does care about her sisters but has her own way of showing it which I would call having tough love, it works on the inside and not the outside so her being mean was her way of showing love and I know that because that's how I tell those I care about that I love them (unlike Winnie I make it clear that it's my way of saying I love you to them)
Ahaha throwing fits about nothing is how we cope with life 😂
I think if they would have had the sisters gone for longer to give Winnie enough time to feel them being gone. Like, she goes to turn and berate one of them and there's no one there, making her second guess her longing for power. I just think they could have done the ending a bit better and gave it much more emotional impact. Still a fun sequel!
Ooh yeah I think that would've worked better! Or if they sprinkled some emotional sister bond throughout the movie. Felt kind of forced that they introduced it at the beginning and then suddenly brought it back at the end
YES! Finally, someone who can see past the bs ending in hocus pocus 2 because of the ending of hocus pocus 1
It was definitely better than I thought it was gonna be
Let’s gooooo
I was wondering when this was gonna come out my guess was wrong but STILL😌
Why is the mayor freaking out about the apples when they're from Boston? That's like a 30 minute train ride over. If he wants them so bad he can just go on his own time and buy as many as he wants.
He’s the mayor he’s busy😂
I'm really not a fan of them throwing in the "feel-good" plot line with the Sanderson sisters. Like you said, at the end of the last movie, Winnifred was only focusing on herself. The suddent change in attitude for her felt very odd and out of character. Kinda felt like they sanitized her character a lot for the modern audience to have some type of moral to the story.
YES!! WE'RE BACK, WITCHES!
Weirdly, the spider-in-a-box at the beginning looks like a Gold Silk Orb Weaver which CAN get pretty big but the only two species in the US are firmly in the South East, no where near Salem, Massachusetts. Also they aren’t medically significant and move like slow drunken toddlers out of their web.
The Northern Black Widow is medically significant (if equally clumsy out of the web), found in Massachusetts, and based on my experience with Western Black Widows very common in populated areas. Seriously, go out at late at night with a flashlight and look near undisturbed areas with hideyholes like woodpiles or up against outdoor walls near the ground - they’re there! Wear gloves when you see cobwebs doing yardwork peeps, they don’t want to waste venom on you but they will if you squish them!
This is your random medically significant spiders of North America PSA! :D
this year i lost my abuelo and my abuelo's half brother, so i cried like a baby when i watched winnie losing her sisters. i dunno, it caught me off guard getting emotional over these death scenes.
Girl I love your reactions ❤
The pop song mentioned at the start of the movie is actually a remix of the song the chilling adventures of Sabrina released for I think a season 3 advertisement. The beat and melody is the same, even some of the words. Idk what the original is, but I think the relation is cool. That song was called straight to hell.
#SophiaPhan, you're so sweet. Thank you so much for uploading this awesome movie reaction. Your content is so cool, and I love watching you react to different movies.
Aw man, I'm a little later to the party than the last 2 times but oh well lol I'm still here for it! Ive been having issues logging into D+ lately so i haven't seen this yet but I watched a lengthy reaction on it a few nights ago and it looks pretty good. I remember back when I first found out they were goingnto make a sequel and they were talking about possibly making it a D+ series and without the original 3 main actresses. I was disgusted when I heard that and I'm guessing they scrapped that idea as soon as all the fan backlash hit them. Thank God for that! I bought the book a couple years ago on sale at Target but only started reading it, like I'm just a couple chapters in. Idk why but for the last couplenof years whenever I try to read I tend to fall asleep. And it sucks cuz I've always loved reading for my entire life 😔 The sisters look really amazing considering 30 years have passed. I'm kind of surprised they didn't wait till next year to release it so it would literally be on the 30th anniversary. Wow. Sarah looks basically the same. I wanted to be her so bad when I was a kid lol
Wait, isn't that the same classroom Max and Allison were in at the start of the original film? Looks like it might be, I'll have to check up on that. I also am disappointed in the CGI Book. Idk why they couldn't just keep it like the original, or maybe just CGI the eye....? I'm really happy they included Billy in this and it's Doug Jones. He's amazing and the character is weirdly hot lol Anyway, I'm gonna shut up and concentrate on the video, thanks for uploading this! Happy Halloween, chica! 🧡🦇🕸🕷👻🎃🖤
I also had the same thought about the 30 year thing! Haha it kind of irked me that it wasn't an even number 😂
FYI the wig Doug ones is wearing is the original Billy Butcherson wig.
2:50 If it is I still think it's a 'no. you used up your excuse a long time ago' storyline
I’m pretty sure the new gift shop is the old Sanderson house so the bullies were eventually released from the cages 😂
Honestly the best part of this movie was the Sanderson sisters, and the worst part was the men in this world. I just felt like they were written too dumb, with the exception of the shop keeper. He was fun.
Ooh I just watched this a couple days ago, as far as sequels to cult classics go, it's certainly a step above 'direct to vhs' but I doubt I'll be rewatching this as often as the original
Not you DRAGGING the 3rd friend about lighting the candle they wouldn't come back 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 😆 🤣 😂

Hocus pocus 3: Agatha Harkness revives Winifred and her sisters to steal The Scarlet witch’s powers
Since the understanding of witches and magic has envolved from 1993 till' now i was ok with the shift in the story, more than making the villain simpatetic they show the backstory in there motivations but didn't changed them, more particulary Winnifred. The same happened with the use of magic since the modern concept as it's used in films and series is that every magic comes with a prize, that why the book didn't want to show her the spell, the powerful the spell the big is the sacrifice.
i think it didnt need to exist, but i liked enough about it that id add it to my halloween movie list. i really want to know where they found the young winnie actress bc she was EXCELLENT. overall, 7/10, not as good as the original, but cheesy fun
18:07 i would Get hypnotized too that song too😂
They did the salt circle in the original. Just on themselves.
I loved Hocus Pocus 2
Well since the Sanderson house is now a store I’m sure at some point the guys were let out.
Yeah, I think my biggest gripe with this movie, and it wasn’t that big of a grape was that the book wasn’t fully practical effects anymore.
They say they sound hucus pocus 3 is in the making
I loved This movie😊
The main teen this time round kinda looks like she could be related to Allison. They could've very easily made her her mother
I liked everything about this movie except for the Sanderson sisters lol with the exception of the beginning when they are young, those girls were fabulous
THEY BROKE CONTINUITY IN THE FISRT FIVE MINUTES HECATE PULLED UP WHEN REALLY IT SOULD HAVE BEEN MEPHISTO OR A FABULOUS VERSION OF MEPHISTO 🤣🤣🤣
i mean i dont think the ending goes against character their not suddenly good they just love each other, as terrible people that they are
Yay so happy that you posted. Ngl, this movie did not need to be made and when I watched it, I was highly disappointed. I would’ve been happy if they didn’t make a move at all rather than making this cringe fest
The power of friendship at the end kinda threw it off 😂
This movie was decent, and while it rehashes a lot of the same plot, it was fun to see the witches and Billy return, with the jock boyfriend providing some funny moments.
my alexa has a mind of its own even if I don’t say ‘alexa’ it talks to me as if I did just because I said a word similar to it.
I feel as though the ending was out of character for Winifred, she does really love her sisters, but technically, the movie contradicts itself, they say that the magic needs to be shared but the sisters did technically share it, Winifred just got more of it.
If the Devil had given Winifred the book, wouldn't she have realized right from the start that Gary Marshall's character wasn't REALLY the Devil?
I definitely didn’t enjoy it as much as the first film. But I was very pleasantly surprised with it, especially the emotional bit at the end. It had me tearing up. But at the same time, I can understand why you didn’t like that part because she did seem so selfish and wouldn’t care in the original film.
This shot at 5:10 really shows how we've come to accept de-saturated and washed out colors. The original classroom looked vibrant and colorful. Here it looks sad. As if being in a high school wasn't depressing enough!
Well, I think I'll have to watch this movie
Hocus pocus 2 brought to you by Walgreens
Lol
A sequel done right.....until the ending
i thought there was gonna be the same twist with the witch sisters as the witch sisters in stardust, but they literally disneyfied it. RIP
Ugh stardust is such a good movie
Loved this movie.
Them seeking revenge on the Traske family being made the whole focus just feels so stupid.
Partly cause it makes almost no sense cause if Winnifred hates them so much, she was literally killing kids and even killed Billy who we find out she killed just cause he didn't like her, yet she all she apparently did was set reverend Traske's house on fire it's kind of out of character that someone like her wouldn't have killed him & his entire family wiping out his lineage.
Also got to love how lazy they were at keeping continuity with stuff like how the Sanderson house is now in the middle of town apparently with other buildings around it, or how a flashback of the first movie's finale shows a cemetery that is almost completely devoid of trees.
Winifred mentioned that they were too young and weak to kill the family, so that's probably why she only set their house on fire. But when they got older and powerful, they totally could've went back and wiped out the entire family 😂
I thought the sequel was cute but you do have a point. Winifred didn't seem to care for Sarah or Mary in the last movie so it was kind of a retcon. Apparently deep down she did care for them and wanted them all to succeed as a family, according to this movie. I thought it was sweet but that's definitely not what I expected from Hocus Pocus 2 lol
THAT'S the word! They gave Book more Agency!! I kinda like it, I just wish he didn't feel like he has no connection to Evil 😅
Also I think that's a Siri, not an Alexa. I only say that because her line right before it turned on was "Be Serious!"
OHHH that makes more sense. I didn't even know siri had a device like that too
@@SophiaPhannn I honestly don't know for sure, but I assume that was the joke at least 😅
Liked that they went with everyone's theories about the girl being a good which and ran with that but honestly its one of the few things I liked. Billy didn't need brought back, the Thackeray bit didn't need to happen, the modern day stuff was hit or miss for me. Lotion potions - yay. Riding the roombas - nay. And the ending was really rushed. IMO they should have let her stew over the death of her sisters longer. Had her try to prevail by herself, realize she can't or even if she could (being all powerful and all) realizing its nothing without them.
The ending is the best part -- you seem to dislike everything I liked about it!
I whole heartedly wanted them to sing I put a spell on you and I was kinda disappointed when they didn’t but I still liked the movie overall
Personally, I think the sequel is just as silly and entertaining as the first movie 😅
when they said that the spell took away what they valued most i thought winnie would die herself or lose her powers so when the others died instead i thought it was a joke tbh like what i thought she was selfish
@sophiaphan I enjoyed the sisters, but the movie was a disappointment. I don’t know if anyone noticed that Mary’s frowned lip was flipped to the other side from the first one, it kept bugging me throughout the entire movie. The lore was changed so much and they depended so much on the nostalgia from the first one to get us to like it. It felt like a Disney channel show for this generations kids, as you said too cheesy. Not for me.
This movie made me feel sorry for them, I really want the Sisters to win.
If they had had a full on fight amongst themselves and then disappeared and Winnie fighting the girls and losing and realizing she’s nothing without her sisters and then be destroyed by then and have that one second before death come to Jesus moment that “I do need my sisters, I love them” and then disappear that would have worked I guess. I don’t know I’m screendoctoring it, the evil roomba’s were cute
You look soooo cute in this outfit!
Thank you 🥰🥰
I actually really liked the sequel I think it was great.
They sang that song because they were looking for the mayor
Would you consider reacting to Beetlejuice? You don't even need to squeeze it in during october. I enjoy it all year around, I think it's such a fun classic!
Hmm I've definitely thought about it because I love that movie, but I also feel like I've watched it so many times, I'm unsure if I have much to say 😂
@@SophiaPhannn I understand completely!! Definitely looking forward to your next video (and inspiring outfit)!
They literally has put the cat for absolutely nothing in this movie. It was a wasted opportunity to have Binx back but nope. And the post credit scene.. What if the cat was Binx's successor? So many questions.
not sure how i feel about the three new girls i like the originally trio better the Sanderson sisters were the best part of the movie
