Imagine having the brilliant and gorgeous Peter Dinklage at your disposal but, rather than use him as the main dwarf character, you make him a side character and cast a regular size actor as the main dwarf character. I would be really interested to learn the train of thought that led to this genius decision.
FFR. They had Peter Dinklage RIGHT THERE. He's way more attractive than Gary too. What the heck...
Him and Matthew look more the same age too
As much as I do oh so deeply agree, that they made more sense as twin brothers 😶 I somehow can't imagine Maurice being portrayed by anybody else. Prolly cuz that's just how great Peter truly is.
@marysupernova7780 then they should have had him portray both and simply given Maurice a beret and the twin brother an American accent. /hj
@@Akoyabones this would have made it so much better, Jaime woulda seen that and covered it years ago! 😍
You should do a whole series of "good actors in bad movies" reviews!
Or "bad actors in good movies"...😅
Good idea
I would like to suggest bad wigs in good movies.
any film with too many a-listers is a recipe for disaster
Omg yesssss. This is a brilliant idea! I hope she does it. That would be awesome.
So... as a little person who was growing up when this movie came out, I'm astonished its existence went totally over my head (see what I did there? laugh damn you), was as star studded as it was - Peter Dinklage was cast BUT NOT AS THE LEAD LP ROLE CMON - and that they worked harder at CGI-ing loafers on Gary Fucking Tallguy Oldman's knees than giving his fake legs knees.
This movie is brilliant and your review of it amazing.
Also, "dwarf" has a much stronger connotation to D&D character creation than to little people for me, though like a few commenters here have already said, it's technically the medical term for the condition (dwarfism) and some little people do use it - but most of us prefer our names, or titles like "your fucking majesty"
This is my favorite comment.
your fucking majesty 😂😂
👑
Love this ❤
Best comment ever
The fact that they hired an average sized actor and made him walk on his knees the entire movie is SO funny to me 😂😂
It's bizarre, esp. when they had a pretty good cast of actual dwarf's and one of them is a really good actor, but they put him in that odd sidebar role, as Patricia Arquette's bf. Everything about this movie is bizarre though.
I laughed out loud when you sang about Gary Oldman's Knee 😂😂😂
In perfect harmo-knee 😆.
It was so beautiful! 🥲
Same that was hilarious!!
lol@@jennifere.pergola598
I danced with my baby cuz it honestly slapped
The muppet legs are killing me. I can' not stop laughing every time they show Rolfe on a couch. Its like when they show Kermit sitting on something. It's just too ridiculous. 😭
😂Yes! I thought he looked like a ventriloquist's dummy!
😂😂😂
Even the fact that it was 23 years ago doesn't excuse it.
BTW I suspect Gary Oldman created this movie.
I thought the same thing! Those are puppet legs! 😆😆
Kermit riding a bike😂😂😂
My husband and I laughed so hard we cried and had to pause the video during "Gary Oldmans knee"
I laughed so ^&*÷× hard when I saw Tip Toes the first time. 2022.
Same 😂
The "Gary Oldman's knee" bit had no right to be such a BOP! Had to replay several times and stayed in my head for days! (hence returning to that part of the video rn lol)
Ok so apparently the final cut of the film is not the movie the writer/director wanted to make, but was the result of studio intervention. The director was so ashamed of the studio's cut that he quit filmmaking forever in reaction. I read somewhere that Peter Dinklage said he was proud of the original film. I need to see the director's cut with every fiber of my being.
@@NeggieKnightthere can only be one
Do you know if the ending was the same?
Yeah i heard that years ago that the directors original cut was widely loved by the whole cast
but the studio edit totally fkd the movie over
@@bigstevie1690 That sounds fishy to me. There are probably a tonne of failed films out there where the director and actors were "really proud of the director's cut"
@@matthewwalker5430 Who says there weren't
were talking about this though
The cut to Jamie sitting in a chair with no lower legs explaining how easy it was to remove them had me laughing way too hard.
Ikr😂😂😂
Literally, I was gonna type this. I'm glad I'm not the only one laughing their ass off.
Not sure if editing software was that good back then
@@dannooooooo they literally edited out his legs in forrest gump years earlier!!! insanity
The back story behind how you got this movie just makes it so much better! Shout out to dads of the early 2000s that recorded random crap on tv 😂 my dad has a random foot locker filled with VHS tapes he recorded of shows like Buffy and Xena, I think we also have the whole series of Greg the Bunny 😂
Ive got so many saved by the bell and Olsen twin movies 😂
I don't understand why she needed to coincidentally happen across a randomly recorded-from-tv version in order to play the scene with the f-bomb bleeped out. Couldn't she have just bleeped it out of the non-censored version herself while editing it together for her own video?
@@staind.raindrop I think Jamie just doesn’t wanna risk it because of the rating period. Also it’s safer to play a syndicated version than the real movie. As it’s edited down for timing and format.
What a strange thing to get bent out of shape over.
@@missmarie_8790 I just said I didn't understand the logic, not that I was bothered or upset about it. Not sure what gave you the impression that I was bent out of shape, but your explanation/theories don't really make it make more sense either. Literally just voicing confusion.
@@staind.raindrop ok… I still think you’re putting way too much energy into wondering about such a mundane detail… to put that much energy into wondering why she did it the way she did, instead of just accepting that she did it that way for her own reasoning, enough to get into a mild debate with someone on the semantics of why Jamie made the decisions she made, in covering this movie, really just make me question how much or how little you actually have going on in your life… because wow… I don’t think I’ve had a more mundane conversation
The Gary Oldman's knee song is a bop Jamie. Thank you for that.
I saw this movie while home sick from school (MANY years ago). I thought some aspects were part of my fever-ridden brain. You just confirmed ALL that really happened.
That's hilarious 😂
This movie literally has THREE Oscar winners and an Emmy winner in it. Who woulda thought? 😂
It is insane. They are all critically acclaimed
😮😮😮
I was like Gary Freakin Oldman!? Lmao wtffff!!
i wonder if they all lost a bet and had to make this film
Old man freaked me out, he’s one of my favorite actors so seeing this…..😂
McCaunaghey hit that wall with the rage of a man who actually hates little people irl
When I read “Little People Defense League”, my first two thoughts were it was just a huge room full of either little people that are self defense masters, OR a room full of self defense masters that teach only little people the art of self defense.
I was thinking it was a fundraiser for criminal defense for little people, and thought they must be some mean little buggers.😂
I was thinking along those lines 😂
My favorite part was you singing about Gary Oldman's visible knee. 😂
I laughed so hard 😂😂😂
It’s Gary oldman knee 🎶
It's a BOP!
Having the actual worst day of my adult life. This literally couldn't have come at a better time. Thanks for making me laugh through really bad tears
I hope tomorrow can be a better day for you! ❤️🩹
I am so sorry 💔
Bro same. And I came to Jamis page just hoping and wishing she'd have something new... and when I saw ''uploaded 35 minutes ago" I gasped!! So grateful for this channel ❤
Heal at your own pace. I hope you're alright.
Glad you were able to find a way to laugh for a while. Best of luck getting thru whatever you're currently going thru.🫶
Same
I’m most confused as to why they didn’t just cast an actual lil person for the brother role. Like I am genuine confusion lol
I hating myself for even having the thought but... I can't help wondering if the fact that he ends up with Kate Bekinsale is the REASON they cast an average sized actor. Which just... eurgh... *drinks a shot
I've heard of this movie for YEARS! But nobody has ever been able to get ahold of it because it was not released. I wanted to see it sooo badly. I can't believe u can actually watch it now!
Edit: I heard in a forum in the early 00's that the original script was amazing. That only AFTER the editing process, and reshoots did it become this monstrosity. Annnd THAT was why the director make them put in the pen name. 😂
I use a motorized wheelchair and my ex uses a manual wheelchair, whenever we went someone with hills he would hang on to the back of my chair and I’ll pull him up the hills 😂😂😂 it was pretty funny. We definitely got some strange looks from people
I would have had so much fun with that!
@@karentucker2161 it was definitely a lot of fun. I also used to pull my siblings along when they were on skates or skateboards. We crashed a few times but it was fun and no one got hurt of course
I love the whole backstory of how the movie review came to be went full circle. Shoutout to Rebecca and her dad! 😆 🔥
My favorite thing is that it seemed like Rebecca nor her father knew why he recorded. Just that he felt the need.
And then 2 decades later, she was like, "😱 here it is... the reason." 😂
I guess the lesson here is never get rid of anything ever. Jaime might need it for a video. 🤣🤣🤣
I kid. But seriously. It's awesome that this all worked out like it did. ESPECIALLY that Jaime needed an EDITED version, and that's exactly what Rebecca had lol!
@@TheCandyShopyou are so right dude! That's so awesome 😎❤
The Hook crying quote she did was hilarious. “We were there, he was there, and he didn’t try”.
30:22 She goes there because the baby is Rolfe's 🤗 explains everything, doesn't it? The long kisses, the missing gene why the baby is also a dwarf, the reason why she leaves instead of Steven, even the very title of the movie as they feel they have to walk on "tiptoes" so as to avoid addressing certain subjects 🙃
This is such a good theory but she told Rolfe that she was pregnant kinda soon after meeting him so it’s supposedly Stevens
Hot take!!!! She got pregnant the day he took her to the family’s house?! 🤣
She said she’s pregnant to Matt McConaughey before she ever meets Rolfe. Although I love your theory lol
I'm not ashamed to admit that I have watched all of your movie reviews multiple times and I clicked on this SO FAST when it got posted. Please never stop what you do! Your videos are the first time I've ever legitimately cracked up out loud (not even just laughing out loud, actually wheezing laughing) and it deeply concerns my dog. I actually had to take a break from binge-watching your videos because for some reason he got stressed and would shake and whine at me every time I was in hysterics. (He immediately jumps off my lap and walks to the other room when I'm sobbing though, so I don't know why he's so offended by me laughing... sometimes I think he has the personality of a cat.) Anyway, I rarely leave comments on videos but I just had to reiterate what everyone else has been saying about how much of a positive impact you have on all of our lives. Thank you for doing what you do and I can't wait to see what's next!
Omg 🤣🥹 I love this comment! Thank you so much.
I watched Mac and Me the other day because of Jamie's review and it's my new favourite thing lol
I agree with both Jaime and the commentor. These videos have had such a positive impact, including the more personal and sensitive subjects. I'm glad for this comment post too because that is equally hilarious😂
❤
SAME!!!!! My husband frequently hears me alone in the next room cackling and guffawing like a lunatic at her movie reviews 😂😂😂
I am literally in shock at the ending, like I get that it shows Carol's growth into "accepting" Steven's family but oh my god. Just show Steven working through his mental issues and the rest of his family stepping in to help with the whole childcare/ doctor's appointments etc. Rolfe and Carol getting together just makes both of them look like arseholes
This is INSANE. They had a mind-blowing cast and yet did the COMPLETE opposite of everything they should have done. There HAS to be blackmail or something involved. Also, I just f'in love Dinklage so f'in much.
So I checked the internet and: “People with dwarfism are people, just like everyone else. They would prefer to be called by their name rather than a label. However, if a term is required, then more commonly accepted ones are: 'person with dwarfism', 'short stature', 'short person' and 'little person'."
I feel like “little person” is a more offensive term to call someone with dwarfism in the UK because of the connotations in English folklore with fairies, the Borrowers and children.
what about elf? or Quasimodo?
Can't tell you how happy I am to see you do movie reviews again! I understand the challenges that interrupted it, but nobody does movie reviews like Jaime French. ❤️
💯
She does the best reviews ever! Love her!
Agreed!
Amen!! ❤💯
I genuinely cracked up at “he was there & we were there, but he wouldn’t try.” You are hilarious and on point, as always. 💛
What is this from?
@@offensivelysomber3557"Hook"
Same, I wasn't prepared for that, and I recognized it immediately and snorted 😂
I did too! And I rarely laugh out loud at a video by myself.
I totally heard it and when she cut to the part in Hook when he does it, I DIED. So great
Jaime you have a ridiculously beautiful singing voice without even trying. WE NEED AN ALBUM
“Gary Oldmans kneeee!”
Fantastic addition to this video! You Jaime are a genius.
I remember watching this with drinks and friends and just straight up laughed the WHOLE time and would spot when Gary Oldman's real legs would show and would take a shot every time.
I can't believe you survived that haha
You understand that it's a "spoof" movie don't you?
There are two sets of twins that I know of where one has dwarfism and the other doesn’t. I have a friend with dwarfism who told me about this movie years ago. He’s an actor too. The only thing that bothered him was the terrible job they did on Gary, and the fact that they didn’t make Peter the twin brother. He wasn’t a huge actor at the time, but they still should have cast the guy with dwarfism as the brother with dwarfism. And btw, I laughed so hard at this video! I mean what the hell is wrong with Kate?! How many times did she need to say the word midgets?! Also, Jaime talking about the end of that weird story and the little girl “could you not? I’m trying to play kick the can” 🤣🤣🤣 Weirdest movie ever!!
There was a Tv series called "little people big world". both parents are dwarfs but two kids out of their 3 are regular sized. And if I remember correctly the twins are split in size.
Yup, my family used to go to the same church with the Roloff's before the show. One of the twins had dwarfism and one didn't. They didn't look 11 years apart though 😂
@@ShinyKristinRight? The age difference is hilarious! 🤣
@@ShinyKristinhow neat! They were so wholesome, that family
Paused to leave a comment about the Gary Oldman's knee song. It's done so well.
I sincerely adore your movie reviews because you always point out crazy stuff that no other reviewers ever seem to talk about. I've seen a few other people review this film, but in a really good way, this video feels like you watch a completely different movie than they did. I delight in your unique perspective. Stay wonderful! ❤
Thanks, Rebecca for keeping and knowing you have a copy on VHS. That's the only way that time period was recorded. 🤓
I was so close to slip in to the void of my depression and then this video showed up. Thank you Jaime, you saved me tonight
❤❤❤
❤❤💜💜💜💜
🤟🤟💙💜💚💜💙
The tide will come back in again. 💜🧡💜🧡💜
i recommend her video about the worst movie of all time it is so funny
I bought this movie YEARS ago, and it was the most fevered dream movie I've ever witnessed.
I honestly lost it after the scene when McConaughey moved that woman when you said "I feel like you shouldn't just pick up other humans unless they ask you to" XD
One thing that bothers the hell out of me but still made me laugh is when Patricia Arquette said that the butthole is the strongest muscle lmao. It's actually the masseter which lifts up the jaw.
The Gary Oldman’s Knees song is top tier. Your harmo-knees are mesmerizing.
As a dwarf, I was not offended.
As a midget I was offended
As a giant, I'm just confused...
@@Sarah_Grant😂😂😂😂😂😂 y’all are hilarious
@@AmberUnavailable 😁😁😁
As an insecure, aimless, thirty something, I am indifferent.
"Gary Oldman's Knee" should be a full song. lol I love it!
I’m so stoked to see a new upload! I’ve watched almost this whole series in my free time lately. Jamie has become my favorite CZcamsr.
Hey, I just started this, but wanted to say I respect you for keeping your channel family friendly. I personally really appreciate it! 💛
Underrated comment
Yes 🙌🏻
Same. I watch these videos with my young teens and I appreciate that I know it's not ever going to make mom die of embarrassment mid-show.
I’m offended that it’s family friendly. I feel discriminated against because I’m not family friendly!!!
Agreed. Thank youuu Jamie!!! But I don't usually let my kids watch anyway... I just actually prefer decent "safe" content for myself! Haha!!
I'm just here to say I appreciate the 4 part harmony used to point out his knee! Keep up the good work!
My husband walked in at that part and started laughing
And once again. Youve brought me gold. Thank you. Thank you for this.
So let me get this straight...Peter Dinklage made a statement about Snow White and the Seven Dwarves being demeaning to dwarves (eventhough they are the heroes in the story) so Disney cuts out Dwarves taking away much needed jobs from the community, BUT he felt completely dignified to perform in this?
well, they were already using CGI to make normal sized humans look like little people BEFORE he said anything.
they also had a little person already signed to the movie before this uproar, and everybody claimed they disney wasnt doing it, when disney actually released a statement saying
"yeah, we have little people playing some of the dwarfs already, why are people claiming we arent"
so the reality is, PEOPLE LIKE YOU who dont know the whole story or whats actually happened and going to happen.
have manifested this situation with your ridiculous un educated comments.
Yeah that’s not making much sense…
It's not like there were tons of dignified roles out there for him to choose from, if any. That is not his fault. His other option would have been to not act. He did draw the line sometimes but people have to work.
@StevenCrowder
@@kiraneryss i understand he has to work but so do others out there and gatekeeping doesn’t help anyone but yourself.
The Roloffs of TLC infamy are both little people that had a set of boy twins with one being of average size and the other little. And their later two kids also average size.
Then there's Peet Monzigo who is the only average child of little parents with all his siblings being little as well. Mother nature is wackadoo and I'm here for it!
I love Pete and his family. They are a blessing.
But tlc is a horrible company that absolutely preys on vulnerable people with the promise of financial stability that they don't always provide. (i know someone who produces for tlc. They are literally ALL horrible efin people)
I immediately thought of Pete and his family. I love when he pranks his mom.
A MOVIE REVIEW?! So stoked
I think this is probably my favorite review you’ve ever done. I had to go back and hear all the jokes a second time. The phone call took me out. Thank you for making all of our day!
That little song about garys knees was EVERYTHING❤
My husband found this in his weird movies group on FB so we watched it
I have NO IDEA how they got ANY of these big name actors to agree to be in it.
It was certainly SOMETHING
okay but "gary oldmans knee" didn't have to go THAT HARDDDDDD
I love Jamie French. I laughed to tears three times from her hilarious commentary.
Your movie reviews make me laugh like nothing else on the internet since Jenna Marbles left. Please don’t stop. Your hilarity is needed. Thank you for existing and putting so much work in so that we can laugh.
Seeing as Peter and Matthew are pretty much the same age it would have made more sense for Peter to play the brother. Why didn't they just do that??
EXACTLY 🤣🤣
Maybe Peter wasn't "known" enough to play a lead?
This was well before Game of Thrones, before Elf even. I guess they thought they needed a big name to draw in audiences and at the time Hollywood was wanking itself silly with parts for major actors to "transform" themselves, something eventually parodied in Tropic Thunder.
And honestly, I would definitely believe Peter Dinklage as his twin brother (for movie purposes)
IKR, just make Matthews hair dark and let it roll. Would have made the movie so much better
I STARTED GETTING FACTOR MONTHS AGO BECAUSE OF U AND IT HAS CHANGED MY LIFE!!!! It is SO helpful for me during my busy work days to just grab a meal from the fridge and throw it in my bag so i can get out the door-it makes lunches way less stressful. I love that i just have to heat it in the microwave, and luckily i have one at work. I even occasionally eat one of the meals for dinner when i’m home and, as u said, don’t feel like cooking. It also helps me with my depression. Thanks so much!!!
“Apart from every night before falling asleep, I never thought of this movie again” 🤣
I worked at Blockbuster when this came out. I remember in the early 2000s thinking it was really interesting and thought provoking. In retrospect it's really poorly done. But I think the idea of self acceptance (of one's family and oneself) and bringing a marginalized group of people to the fans of McConaughey and Beckinsale was cool in theory. 20 year old me learned something from it. I definitely hated that Gary Oldman was cast as a little person and then he and Kate hooked up. But I had not known about health issues and how people with dwarfism were treated because I'd never known anyone with dwarfism at the time. And this was before we could Google anything we were curious about. Movies and tv were where we small town folk learned about the bigger world out there. Except my parents and teachers always said "you can't believe everything you see on tv." Definitely love your reaction to this movie. I haven't thought about it in like a decade. I don't really like it as much as I remembered.
It reminds me of Shallow Hal, which came out two years prior: both are trying to humanize marginalized groups, but are still products of their time. Think Shallow Hal did a better job of it, though, considering it shows Hal's character progression instead of Tiptoes, where Carol learns people with dwarfism are human (I know, 🙄, but that's the point of the film) and in fact ditches her average sized human to run off with her BIL with dwarfism after her husband freaks out that their child is a little person -- like, what? It feels like a really odd fantasy ending for a little person who's always felt unlucky in love.
What you saying makes total sense. This is actually a good idea done POORLY. I think this is the kinda movie that would actually benefit from being remade. Like, imagine a remake of this movie, but well done. First a good casting, with real little people both on the production and the actors. Then a lot more light hearted moments so we'll actually like them and care for them. Good moments of comedy that doesn't rely on ridiculous fart jokes or the weird antics and one liners of supposedly to be funny sidekicks human characters, or worse on the backs of the little peoples body themselves. Also real chemistry between the love triangle in a way that we can actually realize there's a live triangle thing going on. And of course, treating the issues of the condition with seriousness and knowledge, but also naturality and respect. It can't be that hard. "oh but that would be just a whole different movie" no, no but we are gonna keep the same story: a young, sweet, independent from their families, couple faces crisis when the woman gets pregnant, for they now have to face their background and future. She realizes her great guy isn't that perfect when she discovers he is embarrassed and purposely strangered from his family for a health issue they have. BUT, it's a not a simple "nice guy actually bad" typical plot twist, because we get to see that he's not a snob jerk, he does love them a lot, helps them out, and respects them, but we learn that he grew up seeing them go through several difficulties, health issues, societal (like bullying, descrimination, isolation), political (as in laws for accessibility not being passed and such) etc., and he himself had to deal with that world for the entirety of his growing years, so now that's he's grown he just don't wanna deal with that anymore and tried to experiment have a "normal" life apart from the difficulties of social ostracism that he couldn't avoid for being born in his family. Imagine if his best friend as a kid was a cousin, but he died for a dwarfism related reason (like a complication of breathing issued, yes that can happen) and that led him to resent the condition and want to avoid that world? Like.. so he just doesn't want to see his kid going through the same stuff and is genuinely worried. Plus he does enjoys beyond "just a normal guy" and not being singled out and who can blame him after he was the exception his own life, the tall one on his family and the "midget family" one everywhere else? Like ya know real complexity for the character.
Which is something the female lead could benefit from is she could get some too this time. Cuz in the original movie she seems like just a idea of a good woman, emptyhot, nice lady, instead of a real person. So in our hypothetical movie, let's see the issues she may have with her own family. We see that she is a long big curly haired adult woman in the early 2000s, which means she doesn't fallow trends, only half her hair died blood red and she lives in a garage house in the city away from her family and paints flowers on walls for a living. OK. We get it. She is kinda of an urban hippie, she is artist, she is fun, she is modern. Where's her family though? OK maybe they are very traditional, religious or whatever. Not bad people, but groqujg up they weren't supporting of her interests, respecting her opinions or in agreement of her choices, for careers or relationship. They just wanted the best for her but wouldn't notice she needed to be trusted, heard, accepted and loved instead of controlled. Maybe she is bi, and left when they wouldn't allow her to have a girlfriend, because a women is supposed to being a wife and a mother, mandatorily, in their minds. and now that she did grow up and is about to start a tradicional family (with a husband and kid, I mean) she doesn't want to give them the benefit of the taste, because she know it's gone mean a "I told you so, silly girl" for them, she is still hurt by the years of outcasting and, being "the weird, the wild, the black cheap" one in the family, and she doesn't raise her kid under their influence. She doesn't hate them and knows that they wanted her well, but she doesn't want nothing to do with them as a adult, because the past was painful, she feels like real family is acceptance and love, and that blood tied aren't as important as society makes it out to be, because you can't choose it, you can only randomly be born somewhere, and she knows by experience that blood families can be a source of oppression, suffering and trauma, not necessarily love and support. But, her grandmother who was more accepting and open minded had died of breast cancer and it can be genetic and the baby and his proposal makes her think of her "always dreamt of her wedding day" family. Oh, she should have friends. For some reason female live interests to the lead never have friends. Only, if ever, ya know, that one bitch woman who her guy and we the audience can't stand. Anyway what happens? Same shit, but well. The wedding is being planed, the families meet, they are forced to confront their past. She gets along with his family, better than he deals with overcoming his now elevated fear of getting back to where he was as a kid. She has the genes as well, the baby is little, the father can't actually grew out of his trauma, freaks out, he can't deal. They try for a few months but fatherly life is too demanding and it's not working. One day he say some mean things about her mom cancer and "how is she not afraid?" and admits he didn't even wanted to have a baby in the first place, that why he went to such a modern girl anyway. After that huge fight, they split. In the first two years she lives by her self and takes care of the baby with help of her friends, her chosen family, the way she wanted as a teen, free. He eventually finds a "normal" girl and lives with her and had the same type of relationship with his son he had with the rest of his family. Loves him from afar, helps financially, sees him occasionally, but isn't close. Things are going well but not great for there are resentments between them. Then, it's about time to get the toddler to school, and she ends up needing his family help to, ya know, day to day stuff they actually know all about. Ya know, where are the salted schools, what does he need to have on him, where to buy stuff like clothes that actually fit him, adapted toys etc. So the father's brother end up being very present and offers a lot of help.
Oh, he is also deeper and better written than the original version. You see, growing up, they did look very much alike, they do look alike, and it was always that the brother was the "normal" version of the protagonist in the family (cuz he was little like everybody else), but the "other" outside of it, because well he was little when nobody else, like in the school or wtv was. They have a bit of a complex relationship but they always got along well and had a lot in common, the same interests, the same tastes, and the same face too, and everyone used to say "X is the tall Y" or "Y is the short Y", "they just like each other, just don't little differece!" it's gotta be a thing that the only thing that separates them is the height. (there's scenes of the brothers arguing about place in the family, place in the world, who even is the normal one, who envies whom, it's about competition, normalcy, responsability, jealously, a bunch of things can be worked in these dynamic between these tow men) So it makes a little more sense when the girl is actually attracted to the brother too, and ya know, over TIME, years after he and her brother split. He had a few long term relationships failed right before the next step and never got to be a parents, which he always wanted. He spends a lot of time with the girl and baby, he is very fatherly and helps out a lot. They end up bonding and they end up together. But it's less creepy in that way.
Oh. She too have a sister. They too have a complex relationship. The sis was the perfect one in the family. Though, looked and behaved just like the family wanted her to, unlike her too curious, too argumentative, too disobedient older sister. Somewhere along the line, her sister (who was perfectly nice btw, and she shunned and dismissed by her not the other way around) gets back in her life because the toddler had a accident and they needed blood transplant - we all know where it's going to. Girl lead needs to receive this slap in her face to realize blood family is important and can be a source of healing too, not only of hurt. In another moment, sis shows up to her door - she too is divorcing her husband. He cheated. And her family is not supporting the decision. But the weird sister takes her in and supports her. So they mend their relationship. She's not completely traditional, but she has some of it, and she's happy and healthy. Now she has both part of her chosen family and born family in her life. The brother has a family of his own and got over his feelings of inferiority with his brother. The only one who's not completely happy, is the one who couldn't really deal with his issued and chose to run away from them. He's fine, but still hurt, and it shows. We don't hate him, we understand he deserved some peace, he's got a nice girl too, but he lost a great family out of fear. he is a cautionary tale. The little family didn't need to learn nothing, there were great the way they were.
Been waiting for a new one! Thanks for always keeping me laughing !!❤️
Your movie reviews are always so good, thorough and funny! Thank you and luv ya!
I saw "Tiptoes" once late at night on cable and I've never been the same. Your video is part of my healing journey. :P
I appreciate that you keep it family friendly. Mom of 4 and I can hardly listen to CZcams or podcasts around them. They enjoy listening to your content too! My 11 yr old girl has almost mastered her Jennifer Coolidge impression too😅
Just wanted to say how much I love your content. I really appreciate how much work and effort goes into them. Things have been really challenging lately but your videos always lift me up and make me laugh. Thanks so much for doing what you do girl 💕
So happy for another review! I check your account every few days just looking for a new one. Was so excited. Hope you’re doing well!! We all love you!
Your movie reviews give me life. I've rewatched Old, The Happening, and the Vanilla Ice's whatever more times than I can count.
I saw this!!! It is so bizarre, and they could've just hired a little person instead of Gary Oldman. I can't believe they still made this!
I also loved the Gary Oldman's knee song.
Your hair looks gorgeous!!! I always love all your fun and creative hair styles!!!
"Gary Oldman's Knee" still lives in my head rent free
The "Gary Oldman's Knee" song caught me so off guard and I made the UGLIEST wheezing sound, omg. Never ever change, Jaime
Oh my god, that random reference to Hook was amazing! Also the song about Gary Oldman's knees was awesome. Another great video!
I laughed so hard at the unexpected Hook reference 😂
Yeessssss 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Charlie korsmo was a huge crush of mine as a kid, so it was a welcome surprise
Coming to you and found you via the CZcams "movie space."
Really funny work, and i love how engaging your dialogue and voice are.
Just found you here on CZcams and I can’t believe it took years for the recommendation to show in my feed!
Awesome!!!!
So funny and on point!
Liked and subbed!!!
❤❤❤
I think dwarfism is a medically accurate umbrella term and calling someone with dwarfism a dwarf is similar to calling someone with diabetes a diabetic. BUT I’m not a member of the little people community so I can’t speak for them if it’s found offensive. I would be a member of the Little People Defense League if the membership fee wasn’t too expensive and I got some swag like a LPDL tshirt or hat or even a button.
I laughed out loud and had to pause and go back on this one SEVERAL times. Oh man. What a gem. Thank you for this after a rough work week. Loved it.
Love this review so much!! And that Peter Pan clip is everything!!!
Wow, three Oscar winners, Oldman and MM for Actor and Arquette for Supporting Actress. Peter won an Emmy for supporting.
Jaime!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! You posted that video about carnivore diet.. since the very next day my mom cut out 75% of non animal products and has not had allergic reactions at all.. (she has all same symptoms as you-- coughing, cant breathe, etc-- literally all same symptoms)
also the way this movie ends is so unbelievably shocking to me, I’ve never seen anything like it. It made me think that you’d skipped over some important context but every source I can find implies that this is really how it ends
I adore Patricia Arquette's Bo Derek look! Also Dinkledge has no business ruining Snow White for actual dwarf actors after this...
Chad Everett, Carol's dad, was a well-known actor from the 60s forward.
You never fail to make me laugh. I'm not really a "laugh out loud person", but I am when I watch you. Your humor is spot on.
I mean, hasn't everyone crawled into bed with a stranger and drank morphine syrup at one time or another?
Girl, I needed that. I found a short of yours a few mins ago, that had me rolling. This is my 3rd video I'm on, and I've had to get t.p. to wipe the tears off my face, and not ashamed to say, change my drawers. Ya funny. Ya vereh vereh funneh.
OMG, I just found your channel and subscribed. I am bingeing your vids today. Thanks for being such a riot!
Gary Oldman's Knee is a legit bop. Love the multiple talents you bring to all your work.
I literally SCREAMED when I realized you posted a movie review! It makes my day every time!
Jaime... Please, please keep doing movie reviews. Your commentary and editing are perfect and I love watching you. :)
Your videos keep me happy these days
Thank you
Spent my kids entire nap watching your old videos, excited to spend their bedtime watching this one! 😂♥️ grateful for your wholesome, clean content!
I'm also putting the kid to bed! Was so excited to get this notification!
Same, except my sweet kids repeatedly got up so I had to postpone my video watching for a bit 😅
😂😂😂😂😂
Never realized you stay family friendly, and I love that. 👍
Holy crap, I've missed your movie review videos so much! They're medicine for my soul ❤
Big greetings from a fan from germany @Jaime. I just have to tell you how much I enjoy your content, because you so often make my day with your humor. Also you are simply beautiful in my opinion, which makes watching you even more enjoyable.
Thanks so much for all the hard work you put into your videos! ❤
“The little guy from Carnival is in this” is a true statement. Not meant to be an insult. The man playing the Father-in-law also played the barker in the HBO series Carnival. It’s an excellent show. Just thought I would share. 🙂
I STILL miss that show!
Sampson is a badass.
I loved that show so much that I still think about it till this day. It was crazy bananas! Such a mind trip!
Ahh the ending made me laugh even harder than the ode to Gary Oldman's knee. 😅 Thank you so much for making this incredible content. Literally lost my best friend last week and your channel is keeping me sane through this new level of depression.... thank you! ❤
I'm so sorry for your loss.
Gary Oldman's Knee is a bop, first of all, and the reference to the Hook line was just 🤌🏻💯💥 this is one of your best reviews! We were in stitches 😂
Omg i have to see this movie asap. Love your channel so much I'm a new subscriber as of today due to this vlog/video. I couldn't believe that this movie existed even after seeing footage on your channel
You should review The Peanut Butter Solution. It is a 1985 "kid's movie" that legit traumatized me. It has ghosts, abandoned mansions, hair loss then freakish hair growth, among other shenanigans. It's truly bizarre.
Eddy Burback reviewed that movie!
"Have you ever been embarrassed by anything you've created..."

😂😂😂 I bet she has the audacity to be embarrassed of YOU just for breathing! (I have a teenage daughter too)
