    I feel like the ‘dead/missing parent’ trope is because for many of these movies the girls were too young to really have a romantic plotline, so that was given to their single parent instead (because of course, you can’t have a movie without a romantic plotline). That or to make it easier to escape parental supervision.

      Actually they said it was following the formula of having a dead parent in Full House, as their first movie was written by the Full House creator, they at times continued the story line in their movies. Just like with their show Two of a Kind had a dead parent, it too was produced/created by Full House crew members.

      Very similar to how the Hollywood industry treated Shirley Temple, always using her as an orphan or small child of a widowed parent, to lure the next single adult in the plot to fall in love with her current parent/guardian.

    2:48 they said in an interview that whenever they sat down with a movie production team they would ask them, “Who’s the girly girl and who’s the tomboy?” And reluctantly Mary-Kate (I believe) said, “I guess I’m more of a tomboy…” and Ashley said, “I guess I’m more girly…” and that’s it. That’s how they were written for every movie. But they were only given those choices because in the 90s you were either or girly girl or tomboy in media lol

      @@ashleynorton oh it was magical. I happened to be there the same weekend HGTV was shooting a big TV event there. I actually was into home improvement stuff watched it with my mom. We got to meet Alison Victoria (kitchen crashers) and the cousins on Call who were both ridiculously nice. I recognized Alison in the airport in Nassau and she could not believe a (at the time) 16 year old watched her show and knew who she was. My mom didn't believe me when I said I saw her and I stopped her shamelessly and IT WAS HER. she even remembered us later on during the HGTV event pulled us out of the line and introduced us personally to the cousins on call. It was so cool. So that along with just BEING at Atlantis was seriously the best vacation ever. My mom was not in any means wealthy and she saved for probably 5 years to take me on that trip. I don't think anything will ever top it. Love my momma and incredibly thankful for her ❤️

    From my experience as a little white kid around a bunch of white adults, a lot of them really enjoyed hearing racist remarks from children. They were able to rationalize because the kid "didn't know what they were saying" while still getting the vindication of SOMEONE saying it when they couldn't. It was like getting a kid to cuss at a cop for them.

    When I was younger I visited Nassau (in the Bahamas) and went to the local cultural centre/museum, and the guy working there actually played the police chief in Holiday in the Sun. I had never heard of the movie (or any of the Olsen twins' movies) but I watched it after meeting him and it soon became one of my favourite comfort/cringe watch movies. Formative experience to say the least

    ‘Holiday in the Sun’ was like my addiction, but it left me feeling really down about my body, hair, and style, wishing I could look like Megan Fox or the girls from Play. I felt so ugly in comparison. And ‘Passport to Paris’? I absolutely adored it. It had me dreaming about finding a guy who'd be that sweet to me. My mom must’ve seen me watch these movies at least 100 times each. It makes me want to travel back in time and give my younger self a huge hug.

Its 2 friends who are superfans and are going back througb all their whole timeline and even get to interview people who worked closely with them and other superfans. They also are trying to uncover the behind the scenes like their relationship with their parents and manager and whether they even wanted to do this. 2nd showing and gimme pizza are also good ones!

He doesn't really act anymore but I keep seeing his face in EVERYTHING. The only thing I knew of before meeting him was Sabrina the Teenage Witch, in which he is only in the first season I believe. But recently I saw him pop up in Gilmore Girls, my FAVORITE show, as the prosecutor on Rory's case. It's sort of that phenomenon of when you get a certain type of car, you start noticing it everywhere lol.
    Also, his accent is so... interesting lol. I'm tempted to ask what the instructions were for it.
