- Nothing but love for Elliot Page being his authentic self! This was obviously released well before that was announced.
So the live action movies have taken a few attempts at the Dark Phoenix story.. and it hasn't really gone well.

"this is Vanya at peak lack of control, and I'm kind of into it" _the lesbians have entered the chat_
Did You see vanya will have a gf in season 2?
@@juanitaparpandacute3511 I didn't but that's awesome!!
Thought the exact same thing. Rewatched that scene too many times to count ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
All I could think of during the 1st season was: if you let Ellen Page dress herself, there's no way we're going to believe in a straight relationship
Yes, I'm super excited to hear that Vanya will have a potential girlfriend come Season 2. Even though Ellen is gay in real life, and characters don't have to reflect their actor's sexuality, I always headcanoned Vanya as bi, and I already ship her and Sissy together! 💘👭
I think it’s more about enjoying revenge, I’m seeing a lot of worry trends where people love the idea of getting power and bringing wrath and suffering. Not my cup o tea I’m afraid.
One standout point about this show is that almost EVERY character could have a spin-off about them, as they have interesting backstories, and embraces its quirky premise. 🖤
Absolutely! Season 2 gives them all a chance to shine
@@AmandaTheJedi how do you know this? Did you already watch it?
@@leecolon321 oh ok.
Collecting moon rocks is absolutely fascinating

For those wondering and checking Google like I did for the origins of this incredible quote 😄
Lol this was the basis of most marvel fanfics after Black panther came out
@@indominuswrex9465 regarding what matter associated with Black Panther, may I ask?
@@goofygoober6211 Killmonger being pissed about being excluded from Wakanda, so he decided to conquer/ destroy it.
Amanda’s whole vibe of being hella emotionally gay for Ellen Page is honestly my whole ass mood. SO EXCITED FOR SEASON 2!
Everyone is at least a little bit gay.
But vanya at peak of powers is really damn hot!
@@HonorThyGamer more like everyone would do Ellen page, no matter your sexuality
Yep, there's no denying that Ellen Page in that white tuxedo was pretty smoking! 😍
Trina Q But just like women? In suits? Gay. So gay. 1000% gay. Ellen Page really does rock that white suit tho it’s not even funny 😭❤️
And, not to mention the whole Beaureau subplot with Cha Cha and Hazel, where Hazel just wants out. He's tired, he's had enough, and Lord if that ain't a mood right now.
ShantyLady truth, literally SO MANY angles to talk about this show and it still all comes together
That side story kinda broke me.
I almost hate that Hazel's story got wrapped up in less than 10 minutes in season 2, but it was also a perfect ending in my mind. Plus, time travel stuff, so we can always get a little bit more if it suits the story.
Umbrella Academy had one of the greatest couples ever: Hazel and Agnes. Their story was so pure - sadly, young man x older woman is almost always played for laughs. I was so happy to see a different approach for once!
@Virginia Fernandez I love your profile pic! Gravity Falls 🤩
Wait how old was Hazel? For some reason I thought they aged slower or something, idk why because five aged normally I believe.
@@frostfang1 Hazel was actually pretty old (I think) but looked younger than his years because of the time-travel stuff
@@tellmewill thanks. That was my impression but I didnt know why I thought that.
It's nice to see a relationship like that, as long as the younger party isn't TOO young :)
Unpopular opinion Umbrella academy is better than stranger things
Totally agree
I agree, I'm starting to like this show more than "Stranger Things", particularly the latter seasons! 😊
opinion umbrella academy is better than season three of stranger things
very unpopular
better than season 1? nah. better than the whole series? maybe, no interest in watching. season 1 is a perfect movie no need for more
Hey don't forget that Vanya had BY FAR the smallest room, it was practically a closet, while the rest had pretty big rooms, and not one of them noticed or cared. The rest also had a lot of stuff in their rooms; records, posters, nicknaks etc, while Vanya had virtually nothing.
Sorry, I know this is old but I just wanted to say I actually read somewhere that Vanya and Klaus had equally tiny rooms right next to each other but then later for some reason the wall between was removed and then it was just Klaus' room... Don't know what happened to Vanya then but in my opinion this might even make it worse because really, what did happen to her then??
@@holmj6208 You can see by the wallpaper that yes, Klaus did claim Vanya’s room as his own by breaking the wall. However, Klaus’ room was still much bigger than Vanya’s
I never even peeped that
loving the fact that elliot page’s character is in a closet lmao
Glad to see Amanda has her priorities straight (and by priorities I mean Elliot Page)
"straight"
"Straight"
Dynasty The Gemini ellen is but ig amanda would go gay for her lol
@Dynasty The Gemini she never said anything about it, in either directions... but if you look at her IG and who she follows, I'd be really surprised is she wasn't.
And have you seen her button up shirts and flannels?
@Dynasty The Gemini I can see what you mean by the androgynous side. I've been subscribed for about a year now and she randomly drops comments like "and I'm kinda into it" regarding women in different videos. It's never out there or super obvious for someone that doesn't usually look for those signs and comments, but it catches the ear of every wlw watching her.
But for me, it was really her IG that confirmed it. She follow a bunch of lesbian youtubers like Rose and Rosie, and also follows the ladies of Carmilla. People that are big in the gay/lesbian community, but that not many people have heard of outside of it.
"Get Vanya the help she needs so that this doesn't happen _again_ ."
~laughs in Season 2~
But they do manage to stop the apocalypse in season 2
I really like that all the siblings (except Ben unless you want to count "being dead" as a contributor) do things that eventually lead to the apocalypse. Luther of course locks Vanya up, Diego drives her away right into Leonard's arms after Hazel and Cha-cha attacks them at the mansion, Allison makes her forget her powers when they're kids and then tries to use them on her again in a highly volatile moment, Klaus threw away Reginald's notes so Leonard could find them, Five rewound time from the good timeline where everything seemed to be on the way to working out to the one where it doesn't and Vanya goes Dark Phoenix and destroys the moon.
Ben still causes shit. They'll all a crackhead family. Very much likr a real family
Umbrella academy is such a good series can’t wait for season two later this week
Yes, I can't wait for Season 2, only three days away now! 💖
Yes

FRIKKIN SAME
Something I struggled with throughout my life was wondering how good of a father I would be if and when I ever had children.
Then I watched Umbrella Academy and realized "Huh. Well, whatever I do it can't NEARLY be as bad as this guy."
I bet if you ever have children then you'll be a great father. Especially since bad parents never question themselves on whether they're good parents not the way you do, I think that's a very good sign 💜 sorry ik it's an old comment, just wanted to send some love and hope you're doin good!!
I haven't heard many other people talk about this so I will: When Five reverts time to try and properly redo things is literally what causes this whole thing to occur. Everyone was about to be happy/content or start taking steps in the right direction towards undoing the damage Hargreaves inflicted upon them, but Five's decision literally stops Vanya from figuring out she is being manipulated before her powers got out of hand.
Granted, I'm not saying this should have happened but the character flaw that Five thinks he knows better than anyone else is most prominent in this moment. He genuinely believes (sometimes for good reason) that he is the only one capable of preventing the apocalypse and it is that hubris that brings about the doom anyways. Man I am so in love with Umbrella Academy!
Oooh, excellent point! I hadn't thought of it like that before, but you put it into words perfectly.
I think that was the main reason they brought him back to the commission. Time was going in the "wrong" direction, and they figured out the only way to correct it was to bring Five back to the job.
I completely forgot about that
@@KikiKagePro Also note that even after the rewind there is still a significant change: Leonard doesn't end up at the Academy. The only clue Five has to go off of when he first arrives in the future was the prosthetic eye, which was obviously meant to belong to Leonard.
I would guess most people assumed that the Time Travel rules in this story were meant to be "You can't ACTUALLY change history" but this fact proves otherwise. I would guess the apocalypse was still caused by Vanya in the initial timeline (before Five comes back at all) but it could stand to reason that it wasn't caused by the moon being destroyed and was instead just her powers getting out of hand.
Yeah but the commission is manipulating the timestream so they would still find a way to get the world to end.
"Did you like Ellen Page's character in Umbrella Academy" is the new "so do you like Tegan and Sara?"
Sara Beth man I thought ‘do you listen to girl in red’ was the new ‘do you like Tegan and sara’
@@AmandaTheJedi Then this is the newer version of both!
It also used to be do you like T.a.t.U
@@AmandaTheJedi so is "do you liked Vanya from TUA"
@@AmandaTheJedi I hadn't heard of Girl in Red until I read this comment. It's. So. Good.
"This is Vanya at peak lack of control and I'm kind of into it" Girl, same.
X men movies kinda fluctuate a lot. Hit or miss
9:12 yeah, I think Allison not liking him makes Vanya like him more, I think. Because I believe before this, Allison never shown to actually care about Vanya or even have her best interests. Just superficial lip service.
OBVIOUSLY there are things the newer X-Men movies do super well (the Magneto stuff in particular is always amazing) and I still enjoy them ALL, but just thought this was a fun comparison. Umbrella Academy is just something that hits so many familiar beats but still feels fresh, quirky and interesting. Even the ordinary (super strength) gets spiced up with a man literally being turned half ape. Hope you guys enjoy season 2!
*Much love to Elliot Page for being his authentic self
I agree, it takes the standard Superhero story, mixes it up a little with an emotionally abused, dysfunctional Superhero family. 💖
Check the movie "The Feed" (2005) . It's so weird ,that it's just weird
are you deleting comments on your video?
gaming oyvinator nope, things to get auto flagged by CZcams sometimes
@@AmandaTheJedi very strange.. i wrote 2 comments that both are gone.. the wierd thing is, this have never happened to me before.. and now twice in the span of minutes.. in one video?
So it's kinda how The Incredibles is basically the best version of the Fantastic Four
This!!
And Galaxy Quest is the best Star Trek movie.
Umbrella Academy is X-Men mixed with The Venture Brothers drenched in liquid guyliner.
Also what happened with Vanya in one season is what GoT tried and failed with Daenerys in 8 seasons.
When a Netflix comic book TV series does the Phoenix saga better than the X-Men movies.
im so happy your talking about this the umbrella academy has been my favorite show for awhile now
Sorry, this is really nitpicking, but on the show it does say that there are 43 women who get pregnant and have super powered children
Right? I thought that was weird too. Where exactly did she get the number 12 from anyway?
probably because of the end of Season 2
I thought it was 45?
I approve all of this Ellen Paige propaganda
Is it technically propaganda if she’s truly so great though?
The more the better
*Elliot, he recently came out as transmasc! :D
The part where Sir Reg blames the kids for bens death is just horrible its a small scene that really gives you a feel for how the characters grew up
As a long time fan of X-men, Umbrella Academy is everything I want them to be. They are a family and a team it doesn’t focus too much on one character and each is featured. You get to bond with them and that’s what I have been missing. I want that same feeling I had watching the 90s series on screen.
A round of applause for the small/tiny Maritime Canadians
It's so nice seeing Amanda talking about something she's passionate about and actually loves 👏♥️
Diego’s my fave character like, he’s the angry brown abuse survivor of my dreams
It’s that Dean Winchester angst that really pulls you in
Diego; throws multiple knives around corners to unerringly hit their marks. Faints at the sight of a needle.
yesss!! I wasn't crazy about him at first but he really grew on me ❤
@@reiy8401 same
@@thatkidinthestripes He even looks kind of like Jensen Ackles.
HYPE for Season 2.
Umbrella Academy and The Boys are both fantastic. Cant wait for both of their sequels.
OMG, WHAT WASN'T SHE DOING HER 100K SPECIAL LIKE YESTERDAY
It's crazy times
Damm, i was here before 100k too... This grows fast!
OMG AMANDA REPLIED TO MY COMMENT I MIGHT TYPE IN ALL CAPS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE TO EXPRESS MY EXCITEMENT
My favorite fun facts about Umbrella Academy is that in the comics Diego’s only power is the ability to breathe under water, he also had a huge crush on Vanya because In the comics they were both in a rock band together in their teens and that’s why he’s more bitter 24/7 when she gets hurt at the end, AND Klaus’s powers only work when he has his shoes off
So basically she pulled a Carrie.
sindel kahn yes, but on a global scale
@@oblivpatt3419 I know right?
I knew "Leonard" was sketch from minute one. The first words out of my mouth when he stepped into Vanya's apartment for the first time were, "I don't trust you."
And yep, she basically traded one abuser for another. I hope she catches a break in season 2.
There a whole separate part between the time traveling assassins and his romance with a granny..
First i thought how.. But then i understand.. He is a time traveler so age is not a thing for him 🤔
Actually the show did this purposely to play off the usual stereotype which is *typically* a young waitress falling for a much older man. However that's a sound reason too!
I would really really love to hear your opinion about The Haunting of Hill House series in Netflix. Don't know if you have already seen it, but if not, I think you would really like it.
If you don't feel about Ellen Page as Amanda does, are you even alive?
This is also one of the few comic adaptations that is both true to the original source material, and still works brilliantly as a live action performance.
I completely forgot they were making a second season let alone that it would be out this week. Thanks for the reminder.
'In his own way was never enough' - I need to remember that one. 'They love you in their own way' is something my grandmother says about my parents, but I've never been able to put into words what was wrong with that.
did she whisper "Vanya goes to milf town?" lmao
That’s what i heard too
Ahhh That makes so much sense! I kept rewinding it but all I could hear was something about Vanya and a meltdown, which didn't make sense. Thank you! :)
the sign swaying in the background at the beginning made me make up this whole story about her forgetting she had to say that after she finished editing so she ran back in and slammed the door
Okay, but am I the only one who would LOVE to see Amanda do a video on each of the siblings?
I'm considering it!
i just want to give Aidan Gallagher a shout out, too. it blew me away that a 16 year-old kid could so convincingly portray 50-something year old, cynical man.
My favorite scene out of any tv-series that I have watched thus far is Allison's decision to take that gun and use the sound of a gunshot to knock Vanya out as opposed to straight-up kill her like many media would do.
At this point, after all the media showcasing that the incredibly powerful and (possibly) irredeemable character needs to be put down, TUA arguably made the HARDER choice of trying to redeem Vanya/stop this from happening in the first place.
This scene also speaks of the sisterly love that IS still there, even under all of the dirt that is their shared past and their respective mistakes. TUA did a really good job showcasing that. Even after Allison is attacked in such a way, she still smiles and appears emotional and proud of Vanya's place as the first chair and neither Diego nor Klaus wanted to see her in that isolation chamber even while knowing what had happened to Allison.
And it doesn't come completely out of nowhere either, their relationship is complex and at times toxic, but it's believable.
I'm really excited to see what they'll be doing with this in season 2.
I don't even have anything to say, you covered everything lmao. I love this show and I love Vanya so much.
I do however have a lenghty theory on Vanya and the rain that I wrote down about a year ago and it sounds a bit stupid now that I re-read it but bear with me for a sec if you like.
Remember the moment when they all learn of Reginald’s death, and Vanya is passing by a TV store and she sees the news? She mutters “Dad”. It starts raining.
THAT’S WHEN IT HIT ME.
It rains when Vanya is upset. Moreso, It rains when Vanya has feelings.
Of course I didn’t remember this particular moment throughout the series, a lot happens. But almost everytime it rains, it’s when Vanya is upset. When she learns of her father’s passing. When they are in the garden disposing his ashes. The show hinted us on her powers long before it actually showed us what she could do. Then of course, it rains when she fights her family, and when she is on that date with Wonderbread and things go south. But the rain was there from the beginning, indicating for us when her emotions surpassed the action of the drugs she was taking in the first episodes.
But wait! There is more!
Here’s where I go on a stretch.
Reginald created the Umbrella Academy and named it after that Umbrella Company he bought when he arrived from whatever planet he came from. Supposedly.
But what if Reginald knew all this? They infer towards the end that maybe he knew the apocalypse was coming and the real reason he brought the academy together was to stop the apocalypse. But what if he knew? What if he realized it when Vanya was little that she was actually the spark to end everything? Then maybe that’s why he thought it was best to try and shut her off (if that’s the case, terrible move, since his neglect is what set her off in the first place). But what if the real reason he founded the academy was to stop her? What if he noticed the storm when she was upset and that’s why he put the academy together, excluding her, and named them “The Umbrella Academy” - because their purpose was to stop the storm - stop her?
Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Love all this but shit wonder bread sent me😂😭🤣
Also when he puts captors on their head while they sleep to study their powers, Vanya's one is the most illuminated. First I thought it was because of her absence of power, but actually that's because her power is the strongest
Amanda isn't a transphobe for referring to Elliott as "Ellen" in this video. This video was made months before Elliott came out as a transman, so the comments attacking Amanda are stupid. How is Amanda at fault for being unable to accurately predict the future?
I love TUA! Ellen Page is iconic and Vanya deserved better.
Fun fact, if you add the dates up, the apocalypse was supposed to be like April 1st.
I love UA, seasons one and 2, but that hardest thing in the world for me was watching how they treated vanya. Firstly because Ellen Page is amazing in pretty much everything she is in. Secondly because I could see the end of season 1 a mile away and every choice that lead to it hurt my soul. Vanya just wanted a hug and to play her violin!
I just watched The Umbrella Academy a few days ago. It was so good, I didnt make the dark pheonix connection, but fuck, I see it.
Lindsay Ellis gave you a shout out on her live stream. Great video! (Obviously I’m not here because of Lindsay Ellis but I thought it was cool that she shouted you out and should let you know)
MovieBlocks Productions A.K. I heard! Very cool
Two of my fav content creators ❤️
I've been putting this show off for a while but this inspired me to give it a go.
The first episode isn’t great but the episodes after are really good
I just love the hole season 😁
It ok
The characters are so much more interesting and explored in Umbrella ☂ Academy! Great vid, can’t wait for Friday !!!
Me and my daughter are in love with this series. I watched season one last year and was extremely excited to season two was out, but I had to watch season one all over again at my daughter’s request. That’s when she fell in love with the series. We are almost done with season two now. I can’t wait to see what season three brings!
On a side note, this series has the BEST soundtrack.
15:13 I'm cackling. Me too.
"...or if you don't know anything about the xmen" I feel called out
Same. 🙋♂️
Okay, people are going to disagree with me about this, but I wasn't super sad when Pogo died. He did seem to care about them to a certain degree, but his loyalty to their father came before his love for them.
Wooooooh, 200k soon :) I’m so happy for you ! You deserve it so much !
Woooohoooo you hit 200 thousand subs. Well deserved! Thank you for the quality content ...I really do enjoy your vids.
The Umbrella Academy is a freaking great show!
I was introduced to the actor that plays Klaus in a show about superpowers named "misfits".
It was quite an entertaining show.
Not as good as umbrella academy, but still good..
His character nathan carried several episodes in the first 2 seasons/series
I just discovered your videos recently and YES. Glad you appreciate the complexity of this story. You should do a part 2 when season 2 comes out.
cant wait for your video on season 2! this was a great video, as per usual, of course. Congrats on 200K!!
I'd love a part two of this talking about the agent people! They were in interesting duo with love story and such
Man, watching Ellen Page kiss a man was weirdly uncomfortable. Like watching clips of people kissing their dogs.
Also, X3 was not *that* bad. At the time it was, but then Dark Phoenix came. Then again, Dark Phoenix had to do a bunch of reshoots because it was too similar to Captain Marvel.
Okay, this comment has gone too long on X-men and the video wasn't even about it. I need you to make videos about X-men! Please!
Congrats on 200 thousand subscribers!
Harold also has a lot in common with Syndrome from The Incredibles. Wanted to be special and lashed out and plotted to bring down the The Umbrella Academy when he was made to feel unworthy by Hargreeves like Bob did to Syndrome
Can we talk about Vanya's atrocious violin playing techniques?
can’t wait til umbrella academy season 2 comes out on the 31st!
Congratulations on 200k Amanda!! 🥰
I hadn't considered watching this because it's not the type of thing I usually go for but now I'm definitely going to give it a try. This is one of my favorite review/rundown videos you've done. It packs a shit ton of insight into a tight package, I'm here for it all day. For my part, your uploads that end up around the 20 minute mark find the most impressive balance between exposition and personal observation. Killer stuff. 🤘
im so hyped for s2 i watched s1 when it came out on netflix and i've wathced so many anologies of it an behind the scense i jus tlove it so much and im so hyped
Sno it’s good!
Milf Town, Texas. Population: Vanya
This was the UA recap/analysis/discussion video that got me to notice that Klaus cuddles Vanya's pointy little boot in concern :3
I appreciate that you (sort of) pointed out how the third X-Men film totally shafted Rogue; making her get the cure only compounded the feelings she'd had of being cursed with her power instead of validating that she was worthy of good things and her power was part of her. Anna Paquin was such a great pick for that character and they totally wasted her!
Dude they so did!! Anna is a great actor and I can't believe they made that decision for the 3rd movie. They really messed with Rogue's character imo compared to the comics. At least Last Stand has some awesome action but man some of the character choices just feel so off. And like they could have grappled with Rogue's feelings/angst over her powers without her lining up first to get the cure, esp with how they implied she ultimately made the decision bc of Bobby 🙃
I'm all for a video that acknowledges how awesome Ellen Page is.
except for her violin "playing"
@@Alexagrigorieff Yeah her acting lacks at some points, but the good writing definitely helps. She did her best I'm sure, wasn't all bad.
@@lilelo208 It was one of the worst fake violin playing. It's like the production haven't even tried to some FX to cover that.
My husband loves action shows. I love moody emotional pieces. This is the most bonding show we have ever found. Yeah others try, but this show has a good balance. And I love them all. I relate to Luther the most because I’m the oldest and had abusive parents. Luther shutting her in a sound proof room makes sense. Do what your dad taught you because “what else can we do?” Ugh. I could go on forever. This show is so good.
aaah I loved the Umbrella Academy! I just watched I Feel Pretty today (which has Tom Hopper in it) and thought "hey what's the Umbrella Academy up to these days?" and then I saw your video, and found out season 2 is coming out FRIDAY? wow. love it.
Congrats on 200k!!!
Klaus, Vanya, and Ben are my favorites
I love how there are so many cool things coming out on my birthday. (July 31)
Book Dragon happy early birthday!
@@AmandaTheJedi YAY, thank you, this made my week. 😁
aye aye. Just subbed (not the only reason) to help toward your 200k milestone! Loving the commentary style. I discovered you, well, 14 minutes ago!
I legit just got home from work and I'm so excited to see you post!!! Time to relax! :)
Vanya, Ben ,and Klaus are my favorite characters 😍💕
It's so weird to hear Elliot Page's old name and pronouns.
And oh yeah, now I remember why I hated Luther.
I actually subbed today but before this video) Really enjoy your content, keep up the good work!
I adored Umbrella Academy and as an autistic adult was struck by how much Vanya's story parallels how autistic children are commonly viewed and treated by educational and medical institutions, and thereby often by their caregivers as well. Having our experience of the world systematically disregarded and denied in favor of conversion therapies and chemical restraints for when the 'therapies' fail to teach dissociation and repression, and instead push us past our limits and into violent meltdowns rather than giving us the space and understanding to develop things like healthy coping mechanisms, emotional regulation, the ability to recognize and advocate for our needs, or even to recognize and understand our strengths.
I havent watched TUA basically since it came out, so this served as a perfect recap before season 2 starts!
I’m stupid I thought this came out 9 months ago
Hey Amanda! I have a weird question. If all the 7 children were raised the same way, how come Diego and Allison sometimes use colloquial expressions? Would the siblings not all have the same speaking style? For example, Allison says “can’t say hi to nobody?”, which seems out of character for a girl raised by a British dad who speaks 7 languages.
Thank you for acknowledging the change, because in my head I kept saying asterisks (*) Eliot Page
2:16 in that sense Hargreeves as alot more in comun with "The Chief" from Doom Patrol than Xavier, in some of doom patrol more recent comics the guy is straight up the bad guy
I love the Umbrella academy so much, my main issue was the violin playing, for goodness sake, at least give her a week of violin lessons so she can fake it! It almost ruined the entire show for me, I have yet to see worse fake playing.
I subbed when you said you’re a small Maritime Canadian (also because your content delivery is fabulous) :)
Holy shit I didn't realize how much your channel has grown lately. Congrats on the new subs.
i wasn't sure how to feel when i was watching and realizing i looked just like the little girl who played tiny vanya when i was little...
