Did yall watch the TV Show growing up? What animated movie should I watch next? #bingers
I didn’t watch the show growing up but I did see the crossover episodes with The Proud Family, Kim Possible, & Recess a few years ago.
#Bingers Rango, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Haunted Mansion and A Haunted House, Monsters at Work and Party Central, Toy Story 3 and Toy Story 4 and Disney Pixar Lightyear, Sharpay Fabulous Adventure and SpongeBob SquarePants, Spider Man No Way Home and Guardians Of Galaxy Holiday Special and Guardians Of Galaxy Vol 3
Please react to “Your Name” (anime movie; there’s an English dub version too, if reading subtitles is too much work) #Bingers
Yeah I watched Lilo & Stitch the show, it was one of my favorites growing up ❤
i loved this movie they even made sequels of it
Why is Pudge the fish important?
Because of this, Lilo has come to the conclusion that Pudge the fish controls the weather-as he is a fish in water and rain comes from the water- and gives him peanut butter sandwiches so no other kid has to go through what she did. She is coping with the loss of her dead parents. And this is her only way of being able to express her feelings about this. I read somewhere on Disney facts sideline that explained that she blames herself because on the day she didn't feed him a sandwich, the storm happened, and her parents died. So, this is why she thinks Pudge the fish controls the weather and it's a sad tale yes. But she has a lot to deal with being a 7-year-old who's being raised by a teenage sister. Lilo is also heavily damaged herself. She suffers from abandoned child syndrome which is a common illness among children who have lost their parents. She also has a behavioral disorder called intermittent explosive disorder in which she often has outbursts of anger and usually takes it out on her classmates violently. I wanted to share this with you.
And to add to it, if you look at the scene in Nani’s room, you can see memorabilia of her competitive surfing days, which she had to put aside to take care of Lilo.
And to add even more to it, that song she sings to Lilo, from what I understand, is the song the last queen of Hawai’i sang to her people before the land got taken away.
💔💔
That is really fascinating and heartbreaking 😢. Thank you for sharing!
I heard A theory about that
I can understand why she has been hard time with her classmates.
@@nathancruz9172 She UFC fighter that girl to the ground.
There’s actually a deleted scene that gives more context to the strange photos Lilo takes of tourists. Basically, it shows white tourists treating Lilo like something to be gawked at and talked down to and to take photos of without her consent, a curiosity for being a native Hawaiian, just another part of their tropical vacation experience rather than a person. So she gets back at them and asserts her agency by messing with rude tourists and treating them with the same sort of dehumanizing attitude they treat her, including taking pictures of them like they’re something to be gawked at.
They really should've left that in.
@@christinaify
Yes, but censorship is sus sometimes, specifically back then
why'd they delete that? sounds like an important scene!
@@shineonyoucrazydanielle It also gets Stitch to start siding with Lilo. Lilo also enjoys mayhem.
Bro put it back in
I really love the sisterly bond between Lilo and Nani! It feels very genuine and I’m sure a lot of people can relate to it! Even the relationship between Lilo and Stitch is believable!
Agreed on both. It's adorable
12:22 me too.
@WilliamAfton_FNAF87 best part of the best Disney movie!!!!😊😊😊😊
Yes! The realistic bond is relatable! Because I have a sister who is older and we have like the same bond!
I can relate to it...I love my sister🥰
19:14 Nani isn't playing hard-to-get, she's 19 and she's raising her sister. She gave up a really promising career in professional surfing to get a full-time job and raise Lilo once their parents died. (You can see trophies, ribbons, etc. for her surfing in her room at 22:25. It wasn't shown in the clips, but Nani also has a Mulan poster above her bed, an easter egg to the previous Disney movie.)
She doesn't have a lot of time, emotional bandwidth, and mental space to ALSO have a boyfriend. BUT, as many people have said, David Kawena is one of the BEST, underrated Disney Princes/Disney men out there, and he really deserves credit for supporting Nani and for treating Lilo like a little sister, even when he and Nani aren't together romantically.
I once had a man respond to me turning him down bc I have 2 kids and no time with “I have kids too!” SIR, I am not looking for MORE???
Sorry for being a pain, but I have to point out that Mulan came out before Lilo & Stitch, but still an easter egg and shows Nani admires a fellow strong disney character.
@@klcpesan You're good, thanks for the correction! I'll edit it.
1- David is the best Disney love interest. He’s supportive and patient, and understands that Nani has a lot going on. He doesn’t push, and is just there for her.
2- this has one of the best Disney soundtracks, and so many people sleep on this movie.
Exactly and he knew what she was going through, hence why he didn’t “replace” her like he said he should.
Chicken Little, bad movie surprisingly great soundtrack.
“I ain’t know you had a throat like that” is an INSANE way to say someone can sing 😭😭
Tracy… it’s not even like that… this time 😂
The pudge story is so sad, because apparently the fish name pudge can control the weather, her parents died in a storm, she’s trying to appease the fish she thinks is responsible for her parents death so she doesnt lose anyone else.
A little correction: She forgot to take the fish a sandwich the day her parents died in a storm, so she felt it was her fault of their passing and she never skipped again, which obviously was why she was late for school in the beginning of the movie.
That speech Stitch gives the Grand Councilwoman gets me every time: "This is my family. I found it all....on .... my own. It's little and broken, but still good. (looks back at Nani and Lilo) Yeah....still good." 🥺😭
Side note on how David "spit" fire: Fire dancers drink (but most importantly, don't swallow) either kerosene or paraffin lamp oil from a bottle and spit it out onto the flame to make it erupt, so that's most likely what he used.
I always assumed it was alcohol that’s interesting !!
@@Itszaden_
That was my impression too, before I did a Google search on how it's done.
Love the new intro!!
@@McCammalot Huh?
@@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay Billy has a new video intro now. That's probably what they meant.
17:25 It's not exactly because the creators liked Elvis, it's because in Hawaii, Elvis is a major icon because he sang a very popular cover of "Aloha 'Oe," which means "Farewell to Thee," a song written by the last reigning monarch of Hawaii. Her name was Queen Liliuokalani (Lilo and Nani's names are based on hers) and she wrote the song to say goodbye to the kingdom of Hawaii during her exile, shortly after the US acquired it as a territory and later as one of the States. Nani sings the song later in the movie the night before Lilo is to be taken away by Cobra Bubbles.
Wow, thanks!
He also made a lot of his famous movies in Hawaii
12:32 fun fact. It wasn't a pizza box, it was a dryer machine, that's why the washer was there. That is also why Nani was standing and waiting to listen where she was going to hide. But they took the sound off to because a cardboard box can't sound like a metal door. Lol, Disney changed a lot.
There’s also a deleted scene that shows how ignorant and inconsiderate tourists can be, hence why Lilo takes pictures of them instead of the other way around, treating them like attractions instead. They should’ve kept that in.
I'm pretty sure they changed it because they didn't want kids getting stuck trying to hide in their dryers.
They also changed one of the scenes with the ship because it looked like an actual place before but this was around 9/11 so that was a sore spot 😬
@@JacksWorldYT It didn't just look like an actual plane, it was a commercial airliner at first lol. The cockpit still looks more or less the same.
That’s what I told my dad about this scene from last year. However, I have the DVD version of Lilo and Stitch in the original version of hiding the dryer machine.
Nani is an amazing sister for taking on the responsibility of raising Lilo. She also lost her parents and now has to take care of a little kid.
Nani & lilo > anna & elsa
Nani & lilo > anna & elsa
Also so much love for David for being such a great guy and caring so much about Nani and Lilo. I don’t think he got friendzoned cause Nani is really into him but she doesn’t have space for a serious relationship with the death of her parents and with that becoming a parent at 19 and David understood that and still tried to be a good friend :)
I love this movie. Incredibly heart wrenching when you think about all Nani and Lilo have been through. Nani isn't playing hard to get with David she just has too much on her plate as a young woman who just lost her parents and is trying to keep custody of her sister.
I loved the show as well. Ohana means family.
I think the reason they had social services checking on them is because Nani is only 18/19 and lilo is 6. They needed to make sure lilo would be provided and cared for. Nani probably got out of high school just recently and had a job for what little expenses and things she’d want to buy for herself, since she was still living with their parents. Imagine having to all a sudden take on all of the house and food expenses and taking care of a really young kid on your own.
Great reaction.
Exactly. It's really only by the grace of god that Lilo is so intelligent and independent at such a young age that she is able to generally care for herself. Nani just doesn't have the time or the resources to be there for Lilo all day. And this is something that a lot of people who've had to grow up fast can relate to.
Billy doesn't seem to understand that social services really exists like that. It absolutely is that guy's job to determine Lilo is in a safe appropriate environment, and it really is his job to take her away. And as horribly sad as it is, Nani isn't providing for her the way that is required, so Lilo would be taken based on what we are seeing.
There's a decent fan theory that I like a whole lot that Lilo is autistic. A lot of her behaviors fit, from having a special interest (Elvis) to not always understanding something until it's happening (being taken away from Nani). Also, autistic or no, she's the character who acts most like a real kid in any Disney movie.
There's also something about the end of the movie that only really struck me right now, which is that the end shows the difference between just monitoring a situation like Nani and Lilo's and then taking a decisive action to split siblings apart... and what can happen when the older sibling is actually *helped* by the system instead of judged by it. When Mr. Bubbles actually started helping and supporting the family, when Nani got help from other people, she was able to do what she couldn't on her own.
This movie was criminally underrated when it first came out. I'm glad it's started getting more love.
Even deeper it's that stitch represents the nonverbal high support needs autistic (as well as having highly destructive impulses)
This movie is a masterpiece! 💎💎💎🏄♀🌴
I used to live in Hawaii (my dad was stationed on Oahu for three years), so to answer a few of your questions:
-the truck drivers not wearing uniforms is pretty normal
- "Shave ice" is correct
-yes, there are a lot of mosquitoes in Hawaii
(I don't know how I keep forgetting how much I love this movie but: holy cow, I love this movie.
And yes I do relate to Pleakley.)
shave ice is the right anwer but a lot of us just call it a snow cone. Those hit as a kid!
I liked to get them without any flavoring so I could just eat the ice. @@lstarsabb
If you think this one’s emotional, wait til you see Lilo and Stitch 2. The entire 3rd act had me bawling like a big ole baby. 😂😂
I swear I thought Stitch was really gonna die. The music, the lead up to that moment, and even the background art.
Yeah I haven’t watched it since we first got it because of that lol I’m like, I’m not ready to cry again 😂
I always ugly cry in that movie 😢
Omg I never knew there was a part 2
There are four movies in total, two of them being a pilot to the series and the series finale @@Myaccount923
Calling Stitch “Twitch” the whole time was so funny 😂😂 great reaction per usual!
Please do more animated or horror movies! Especially The Sadness (good luck editing if you do 🫣)
It made me sad... There was a really talented dancer who's dance name was Twitch. He had a thriving dance career, a beautiful wife and kids, and seemed really happy. One day, when his family was out, he walked a few blocks away, checked into a motel room, and shot himself. No one around him had any idea he was depressed. So when Billy said "Twitch is really going", it just hit hard.
Search "So You Think You Can Dance Twitch Boss" to check out his dancing.
What i love about the movie is the conversation with Lilo talking to Stitch about her parents, him crying at night, and knows that's why he wrecks things and pushes her. Because that's why she is aggressive and does the same to her sister. And how she remembers everyone who leaves. It's so subtle, yet so well written. And how Bubbles became a part of the family. It explains why he was ghosting them so much. He cared about them and wanted to do what's best for them. Of course, all the comments talking about Pudge the fish. Can't forget about them visiting Graceland! 😅
I hated Bubbles when I watched this as a kid. Now, I can understand why he was going to take Lilo. It's his job to determine if Nani was capable of taking care of her. Nani was only 19, barely an adult herself. She was having a hard time coping with the loss of her parents while becoming a parent. It's obvious she was barely keeping everything from falling apart. After that call from Lilo, he came to find her alone and the house destroyed. What options did Bubbles have? She didn't even have a home anymore, so leaving her there would be irresponsible.
Honestly it is unbelievable how real they managed to make this extremely mature theme. A young girl who lost her parents, her guiding figures, who tends to lash out and be quick to anger because she cannot understand, cannot comprehend the grief inside of her. And Nani. Imagine, you have just reahced adulthood, you think about moving out, going to college, starting your own life. And in one instant, the people who have guided you all this way are gone and you are given the enormous responsibilty to not only deal with your own grief, but to care for a child, find a job, keep a steady household. Nani was practically made a single mom at the ripe old age of _18_ with the responsibilty to care for a traumtized 6 year old.
And while Bubba is kind of portrayed as a good person, this kind of "assistance" is clearly not helping anyone. What Nani needs is financial assistance, money to pay a Babysitter so that she _can_ go out and get a job, or take College classes, so that in the long run, she is _actually_ able to take care of Lilo. What she and Lilo do _not_ need is for Lilo to go into the System, maybe get taken entierly away to a different family, with her sister barely and rarley able to see her.
Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride is sung by some of the students from Kamehameha School (a school for Hawaiians). I was not part of it, but one of my cousins was! There’s a video on CZcams of them singing it if you want to check it out
czcams.com/video/nTFgdtfOcuc/video.htmlsi=kH8VLIvgaFKyrqTM this is the students that sang it!
Can we just hand over the award for absolute Best Family Member to Nani? I cant think of anyone else more deserving.
This girl, young woman, gave up whatever future she wanted for herself. College. Boyfriend. Surfing career. (She was a good surfer, she has trophies in her room)
Or whatever else, all just to struggle through thankless and deadend jobs to raise her younger sister. Just so Lilo doesn't end up lost in the foster system and lose her only family left.
IM WHEEZING WHO SAID THIS MAN LOOKS LIKE A SAINT JUDE PATIENT 😂😂😂💀
"Ohana means family."
Great reaction!
This is one of my favorite Disney movies. And even though it's a cold day outside, I'm drinking a glass of ice water while watching this video. Gotta have at least two glasses of water every day. 👍
6:48 - 7:58 This opening song is on several of my Spotify playlists. Such a favorite!
I always tear up a little bit at the end when you think that Stitch is going to leave. But he gets to stay with his new family.
I very highly recommend the next two Lilo & Stitch movies: "Stitch: The Movie" and "Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch". #Bingers
Looking forward to your next reaction. 😊
I agree also the Disney promos where he visited other movies like Aladdin beauty and the beast
Do you not recommend Leroy & Stitch?😭
Just to make sure I’m remembering correctly But in stitch the movie that’s when they learn about the other experiments right. And they free the electric one for some reason? I don’t remember cause it’s been a while since I’ve seen that movie.
Y'all, when Lilo said "like a lobster!" at the pound I lost it for a solid minute. What a movie 😂
Elvis is actually very strongly connected to Hawaii! So the music was a fantastic choice. Lilo & Stitch was probably my top favourite movie as a kid, it’s still one of my absolute favourites now. I collect Stitch memorabilia now 😅 lol
My number one favorite Disney Movie, also they're making a live action version of this.
Fun fact: the voice actor for Lilo is also Samara from The Ring, girl has a lot of acting props
This has been confirmed. I saw they made a movie based off the story with a it be play that a kid went to new york to audition for , but not the actual live action movie. I would so love that this is number one movie too because my grandfather made sure i got it this movie when it first came out. He gone now and it's a reminder how much he love me and. "Ohana means family, family means no one gets left behind or forgotten" And he never will be.
She also did Chihiro in Spirited Away….
Ugh! Comment stealer! I was gonna say this FIRST LOL about Daveigh Chase
@@osmanyousif7849
That was the first I ever heard her voice. When this movie came out, it was driving me CRAZY that Lilo sounded so familiar! Lol
It took many years for me to learn that she was also Samara Morgan. That movie messed me up when it came out. I was 12.😂
Nani and Lilo singing *Aloha 'Oe* always makes me cry. Disney movies fridge the parents so often, but they're right about siblings becoming so much more important when that relationship goes early. Hearing that the last monarch of Hawaii (Queen Lili'uokalani) wrote it in farewell to her kingdom as she was being forced to capitulate to demands from US colonization makes it that much more poignant.
I don't think a lot of people recognize how deep that scene really is
Seeing the lilo making a wish part made me think of your Disney quit playing with my heart song which is always gonna be a great song
as someone who has been in foster care, the storyline with Cobra having to take Lilo away really hits home, Nani was doing her best in a difficult situation to raise her sister, Bubbles saw the family at a difficult time where fate seemed to have it in for them
8:24 Lilo believes Pudge the fish controls the weather because on the day she forgot to bring him a peanut butter sandwich, there was a rainstorm. Her parents went driving in the evening during the storm, got into an accident, and sadly passed away.
This is a heartbreaking part of Lilo's story because her coping mechanism is to think the weather-related accident was her fault because of a simple ritual (giving a fish a sandwich) she forgot to do ONCE. And now she's taken it upon herself to never forget to feed Pudge again because she's afraid that if she does, someone else will lose a family member to a weather-related accident.
13:34 Another coping mechanism Lilo has is to take all these pictures. It's not because they're overweight, it's because they're tourists. In a deleted scene that was partially-animated, multiple tourists would make racist remarks to Lilo because she's a native Hawaiian, asking her if she spoke English and where the beach was. (It's an island... literally drive in ANY direction and you'll find a beach. SMH.) She found out the new tsunami sirens were being tested that day, so her retaliation to the racism was to shout on the beach to all the tourists there that if they heard the sirens, they needed to run to higher ground. Seconds later, the sirens went off, resulting in a panic.
This scene was mostly discarded from the movie, but the footage of everyone running was repurposed later in the movie for the scene where Stitch plays Elvis on the beach and then loses control of himself. You can still find the original scene on CZcams.
Would love to see a reaction to The Pagemaster. If you’ve never seen it, it’s a live-action/animated hybrid starring Macaulay Culkin, Whoopi Goldberg, Patrick Stewart, & Christopher Lloyd. An underrated classic! #bingers
I never even heard of that movie ima look into it!
@@BillyBingesYESSS OMGGGGG PAGE MASTER IS SO GOOOOOD
Hell yes pagemaster would be awesome
do,it
Literally like rn
When I tell you this movie helped me SO much when I was s weird little girl growing up in a small minded town... I felt so seen lol. But that one scene always sticks with me, the one where Lilo is telling Stitch what happened to her family and how she recognizes his pain. She said something that was so impactful for me even as a child "I know that's why you wreck things and push me." That really helped me understand why I sometimes came across "problem" children. It wasn't just that they were deciding to be mean out of nowhere, something must have happened to make them that way, and they could be in pain themselves. It really helped me to not internalize a lot of the mistreatment I faced from some of my peers.
When this came out I was a teenager and in my mind too “grown up” for Disney movies.
Cried my face off.
Cried during this commentary too.
Something about it hits. The loneliness, the isolation , the no one believing in you, the wanting of a family.
Ouch.
Fun Fact: The girl that voiced Lilo later on played the role of the creepy girl from the horror movie The Ring.
Daveigh Chase is very talented. Miss her dearly
Fun fact, the cupboard she hid in with the pizza box used to be a washing machine but it was changed to make it seem more safe to children watching iirc.
LILOs original voice actress is named Daveigh Chase who also played in The Ring franchise . And also the Japanese animated film “spirited away”. Such a talented little girl to do HUGE roles at a young age. She’s also a singer. Wish she’d come out of retirement. Miss her dearly
The reason Cobra watches Nani and Lilo is because Nani is still only a teenager who’s parents death, fact that she has likely given up going to college and most of her social life, and now has to act as a mom to her sister. All those changes are just as hard in her than Lilo, and people can react differently to those changes, for better or worse. He needs to be sure she’s up to the task, and can also overcome her sister mentality and dynamic to be able to raise Lilo like a parent. She’s basically being forced to grow up quicker than expected. Lilo even shows lots of behaviors and interest that aren’t typical for little girls, so he probably has concerns there, like seeing her try voodoo. Also every time he shows up, something wrong is going on to where when he comes to get Lilo, the house is in flames. Really what would anyone think at that point. He’s tough on Nani because he needs to be to emphasize that raising a child is a lot of work, but he doesn’t want her to fail. When he thinks he needs to take Lilo, he’s genuinely apologetic and acknowledges Nani is trying, but feels she’s struggling. It’s clear he doesn’t want to, but feels he needs to. He gives her chances. It’s a case of him just doing his job and nothing more.
Everyone really only talks about Nani just growing up fast to take care of Lilo, but in the scene where she used stitch as a speaker you can see all of her surfing awards in her room. Not only did she give up being young to raise her sister, she also gave up her career
Lilo's entire speech of: "Our family's little now, and we don't have many toys. But if you want, you could be part of it. You could be our baby, and we'd raise you to be good. 'Ohana' means family. 'Family' means nobody gets left behind. But if you want to leave, you can. I'll remember you, though. I remember everyone that leaves."? Makes me cry my eyes out every damn time, and I have seen the film...MANY times.
Same, bruh.😭
Our shelter varies in cost throughout the year. We got our dog last April for free during an overflow period and all his shots were free too and he gets free shots at their clinic for life. But other times it’s usually $25 to adopt and $75 for puppies or kittens.
One thing you can say about billy is he ALWAYS appreciates the songs 😂😂❤
So the thing with the fish is that Lilo says he controls the weather and she does not want the rain to happen again so there is not another accident.
Even my mom thought that Jennifer Lopez voiced Nani, but no it was actually Tia Carrere who voiced Nani.
25:48 Im not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet but Hawaiian Rollercoaster ride and He Mele No Lilo (the song in the beginning) were done by Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu. He's an amazing Hawaiian musician/singer and he also teaches hula. Look up the Merrie Monarch festival, he and his students do great work.
Fun Fact: if you go back to the beginning of the moive when they were surfing, the camera pans to the ocean and you see fish swimming around and you see a little orange/red fish with a sandwich in it's mouth
20:58 he knew about San Francisco because of that movie with that giant spider.
OMG, I forgot how good this movie was. It has such a great theme that family and friends are forever. and it's about accepting. To me people should be accepting regardless because everyone is born differently. So? Who cares if someone is a different ethnicity, or if someone is born with a disability, or if they are an alien dog. That doesn't matter, what matters is what they are on the inside as much as the outside. Don't judge a book by its cover.
I wish I had Stitch as a pet(the cutest thing ever)
And this movie came out 2 years before I was born lol.
Great reactions like always Billy!
Watcher from Hawaii here! I hope you get a chance to visit! Some facts and clarification for you:
1. Lilo means “lost or separated” in Hawaiian, so essentially the movie can be interpreted as lost and put back together as the name “stitch” is a perfect counterpart for Lilo.
2. Yes, we call it shave ice in Hawaii.
3. In Hawaii, the work dress isn’t as formal as other parts of the United States. We definitely embrace more of a casual look even in other higher job positions.
4. Someone else has already mentioned why Lilo is adamant about feeding Pudge the fish.
I love this movie so much. The new intro is awesome and fits you so well. Fun fact: The actor that voiced the scientist has voiced a lot of Disney characters. He’s voiced Cogsworth (Beauty and the Beast), Governor Ratcliffe and Wiggins (Pocahontas), Archdeacon (The Hunchback of Notre Dame), and Fenton Q. Harcourt (Atlantis). He also played Charles Emerson Winchester III (a surgeon at a mash in the Korean War) on the show M*A*S*H* .
I was so sad to hear he died. Made so many of those characters lovable and more memorable than they would have been.
Another fun fact: LILO is voiced by Daveigh Chase (who was 10 at the time) also played Samara from The Ring franchise
@@lessismore8533 Another case of a cute little girl with the acting props to be terrifying.
I LOVE THIS MOVIE! You have to watch the second one! Even watch Stitch The Movie as it was the movie that set off the whole tv show!
#Bingers Date Night, Letters to Juliet, Bride Wars, The Finest Hours, Secretariat, Invincible
The “leave me alone to die” part was the realest thing Lilo said all movie😭😭😭
I can relate to the sister bond between Lilo and Nani. I have 2 sisters myself. And I can honestly tell you the way the girls love each other, understand each other, are always there to watch over and look after the other and fight in this movie... that's very realistic.
I really like the conflict between Nani and Cobra Bubbles here because you can tell both want what's best for Lilo & both are right to some extent- Nani's right that Lilo's behavioral issues and psychological needs aren't likely to be met in a positive way in foster care but Cobra Bubbles is right that Nani was struggling with not being able to properly supervise (leaving her alone multiple times, once with food cooking on an open flame on the stove) or control Lilo (and later Stitch, especially their more violent and destructive behavior)
Director Chris Sanders is the voice of Stitch 🛸🌺
Bruh, she has a social worker on her case and a little sister to take care of and she gotta work lol she doesn’t have TIME to date 😂 David understands that, thankfully. Bless him.
lilo and stitch is def a fav! a strong message in it. ❤️ #bingers
My headcanon was that Lilo asked Stitch what his name was and he couldn't pronounce "626" correctly so that's why he's called that, or Lilo misheard him.
13:36 Lilo lives in one of the most beautiful places on earth but she sees it everyday and it’s home it’s normal, the thing that is unusual is the tourists and random people who show up that she doesn’t know. So her photos are of all the tourists and the random things they do for fun
No social workers show up if the parent or legal guardian of a minor is no longer in the picture. Especially if there is reason like truancy at school, and if they see the house is unkempt they investigate
About Pudge the Fish:
Like most children her age, Lilo has a vivid imagination. As Polynesian culture includes many Loa, spirits who control natural events, Lilo concluded that Pudge controlled the weather. As their parents died in a car crash due to weather, Lilo 'appeases' Pudge by bridging him a peanut butter sandwich every week because she is determined to keep Nani safe.
This seemingly-insignificant little detail throws new light onto everything Lilo has done in the movie - from taking photos of chunky beach-goers to feeding Pudge to her obsession with Elvis, she is absolutely relentless in doing anything and everything she can to protect Nani.
Damn we got the "Noooooo" and the "stop playing with my heart" in one video 😂
39:35 in 2002 I was a whole adult and went to see Lilo & Stitch with NOT ONE CHILD. It's one of my favorite Disney titles. I love it for its hand-drawn watercolor style and the Elvis soundtrack. When I was a kid I was a fan of his movies. It wasn't until later that I realized how problematic he was.
Billy, the song from the surf scene is Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride · Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu · Kamehameha Schools Children's Chorus
I was 6 when this movie came out. A little girl who had been in foster care for 3 years already and many more to go and struggling to make friends my own age. I never related to a character more than little me related to lilo. To this day I love this movie. It got me through many rough times growing up.
It cracks me up that you watched the updated version where Lilo hid in some table with a pizza box instead of a dryer. In the closing credits you can see its a dryer too😂😂.
Also, I read somewhere that since Nani and Lilo's parents died in a storm and Lilo thinks Pudge (the fish) controls the weather, Lilo brings him a sandwich every week as like some kind of offering/appeasement. Also that Nani was a champion surfer before their parents passed (there's a bunch of awards and medals in the background).
Lilo’s voice actress, Daveigh Chase, also plays Samara in The Ring and does the English dub of Chihiro in Studio Ghibli’s masterpiece Spirited Away
Yes we all know Daveigh is an icon. I really wish she’s return to Hollywood
Elvis is a huge part of this movie because it is a huge part of the culture of Hawaii. I have visited there and they are still very much into Elvis due to all the movies he made there. There are very cool film locations and music events with famous people regarding Elvis there
@BillyBinges, I’ve been following your channel for a couple years now and I love how much your channel has evolved. I’m going through a health scare right now and your videos bring light to my day. If you see this, I hope you know that you have made a difference in someone’s life.
The reason why she feeds the fish is because her parents died in the storm, and she thinks the fish controls the weather
I forgot how much I loved this movie. Thank you for what you do and always being a vibe🙏(I got my water on deck)
Me too
You know the song Nani sings to Lilo is supposedly the same song that the queen of Hawaii sang when America colonized/annexed Hawaii. A nice parallel to the American government that separated her from her people like how the American government was now separating Nani and Lilo
"She just wants to make a friend. It's kinda hard when you biting people, though." ahahahah And yeah, shelters do charge you to adopt a dog, usually around $100. They fix the pet and give them all their shots is why. Even with the adoption fees the vast majority of shelters operate at a loss. If someone is ever looking for a charity to give to your local shelter can use it as well as any spare pet things like food or toys. I worked at a shelter in college and it was always on the brink of shutting down.
They would put her in foster care, chances are Lilo is *already* in the system after their parents died, and the reason they have a social worker at all is because Nani is considered relative placement so she had to be screened and monitored to ensure that it was indeed the best place for Lilo
The Disney stop playing with my heart had me dying on the floor😂😂
Love your new intro btw! and Lilo and Stitch was my favorite classic old Disney movie, so happy you watched this 💓
Somethin cool I noticed about the family photo at the end of the movie: The space for Stitch's spot in that photo is made partially from some of his own destruction, and an extra bit that his family cut out for him. He burned his way into their lives, and they made space for him.
25:49 Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride and He Mele No Lilo, the song in the beginning, was sung by Mark Keali’i Ho’omalu and Kamehameha Schools Children’s Chorus
Lilo didn't give myrtle a knuckle sandwich she gave her a hawaiian punch😂
When I was a kid I avoided a lot of Disney movies that didn't include princesses or like the girlier ones. Idk but this never appealed to me and then during covid I said let me watch the movies I didn't watch as a kid. And the way this movie spoke to me. I wish I was smarter as a kid lmao. This movie is so beautiful
so glad you liked this movie!! hilarious reaction as always. lilo & stitch one of my all-time childhood favorites (i was also 9 in 2002 lol). i love the movie’s representation of making your own family❤
Born and raised in Hawai’i, let me tell you we get PLENTY geckos, flying roaches, and big centipedes lol
Honestly, once I watched the men in black movies and then rewatched lilo&stitch, I was convinced they shared a universe. Thats my headcannon
Lilo and stitch is one of my all time favorites because Lilo meant Business and stood on that! Loved this ❤ you should definitely watch the second movie: Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch. It was a pretty good one too!
She 8:07 gives the fish a sandwich ever time but the Day she didn't her parents got into an accident cus of a big storm and so lilo believes the fish pudge controls the weather so she makes sure to never forget to feed the fish a sandwich.
25:49 yo Billy, this is Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu, and he also sings the Opening song as well. Another thing, the song Nani sings was her way of telling Lilo they were gonna be separated. Aloha O'e, the name of the song, is her farewell because she can't bring herself to say it.
The amount of times I rewatched this movie as a kid is probably close to a million times 😂! I was 5 years old when this movie came out. I relate with Nani as an older sister and Lilo as a fellow weirdo (weird horse girl all thru junior high and high school). I love Winona Ryder's version of burning love! So the reason why Lilo says Pudge the fish controls the weather is that it's almost like a security blanket, her parents died in a car crash due to the rain and she believes if she feeds Pudge a sandwich he can keep the weather calm so she doesn't lose anybody else. I will now let you ponder this. Also, #binges there is a 2nd and 3rd movie. Stitch has a glitch is really good!
Oooh never expected this movie. Used to be a childhood favorite. 😍❤
The name of the song you were enjoying during the surfing scene is called 'Hawaiian Roller Coaster Ride' by Kamehameha Schools Children's Chorus and Mark Keali'i Ho'omalu.
Well Billy, the reason why Elvis is so heavy in this movie, is because Elvis is very popular in Hawaii. I want to say many of his movies were filmed, if not all in Hawaii.
This one of my fav reactions. It was so cute to see your fatherly side come through w Lilo 🤣
Fun fact: In the Lilo & Stitch show, they have a crossover episode with Kim Possible. Speaking of which, #Bingers I recommend Kim Possible: So the Drama (not that horrible live action they did, but the animated version.)
BTW Elvis is pretty big in Hawaii since he visited very often, even having a home there. Plus he starred in 3 movies that took place in hawaii
They say that Lilo's parents died in a car crash after their car went off the road in a storm. Nani was the closest living relative and had social services involved because she had to go through the process in order to be appointed Lilo's legal guardian.
I related (and still do), to Lilo. Especially as a neurodivergent kid, I didn't have many (actual) friends and making friends was and is still so difficult. I don't know if Lilo is neurodivergent, but it was nice to feel represented. It was nice to feel valid and seen.
I think she is there's a video on CZcams that had psychologist react to it or something and they don't hought so if I recall correctly. However as a neurodivergent myself I felt super relatable represented and connected to lilo
#bingers Prince of Egypt! I’m waiting for that reaction!!
Hell yes this has too happen
Masterpiece film! Wore that VHS out on the 90s
One of Elvis's most memorable concerts was in Hawaii, so even today they play alot of Elvis there.
Usually you pay an adoption fee which usually covers shots, microchip, & nueter.
This is why lilo and stitch is my all time favourite film. It’s values resonated with me from the day I watched it and even now. It’s easy to relate too just wanting a family and having people who will always be there and not leave
