Bevanfield is back with their take on Rapunzel which was part of their Tell me a Story series of movies. Spoilers, it's terrible and it came with the Daily Mail! phelous.com / phelous
In the original story the wife was already pregnant and the desire for salad was one of her cravings, but I guess that was omitted from this version because that would make even the slightest bit of sense.
Right, and wasn't it, like, winter and the only vegetables growing was in the witch's garden? In some versions I think they do ask first but the witch won't share, so they steal it when the cravings get worse and the wife stops eating. Still shouldn't have stolen, but at least in this version the husband does it out of desperation.
Also in the Middle Ages they believed that if you had a craving for anything during pregnancy, no matter how strange, you HAD to eat it or your baby might be born missing vital organs. It wasn't that he was willing to trade a baby for salad, he was basically choosing between letting her have it and letting the baby die.
Don't be fooled. It's a cartoon, so logic doesn't necessarily apply. I've had great results with the rub-laugh method so far. I still don't know what to do about my pesky neighbors though... :(
@@raininess I might have some ideas, but they aren't cheap. I live in an appartment so I need extra money for the service AND the quiet, isolated location(otherwise my neighbors will hear the screams)
@@anikmonette2140 Urgh, yeah I feel ya. People give you the weirdest looks after they hear screaming... let alone seeing you dragging a human-shaped bag down the stairs.
Wife who basically threatens to kill herself if her husband doesn't go steal vegetables from their neighbor even though they can clearly afford their own food. Husband who's willing to sell their first born child in order to sate that stolen-salad addiction. Who's the villain in this movie again?
They're clearly well off if they can afford chicken every day. In the time period it seems to take place in meat was a luxury only rich people could afford to have daily. Also notice that the husband isn't actually eating anything of the chicken, with the way the cells are layered.
Mom’s first line: “Don’t you wish we could have a child whom we could love?” Dad’s first line: “Well, yes, if you do.” *Proceeds to trade their first born child to pay for vegetables they stole, despite the fact that they can afford to buy a whole chicken every day, and never once tried to save, trade back or even visit her.*
Wait a minute. An oblivious, gluttonous man sneaks into someone's residence to steal their plants, then has to give up his most beautiful child to their owner, before said child enters into an abusive relationship with them? Old Man, is that you?
I know this is years later and has nothing to do with your comment or the video but what/where from is that rabbit in your profile pic? It's cute af! x3
I just noticed phelous seems to review a lot of animated adaptions of fairy tales that seem to think that the parents of these characters deserve more screentime
Was I the only one caught more off-guard by the botched perspective of Mr. Boring eating the chicken, so much that the mustache went unnoticed the first time?! His left hand clearly goes behind the drawing of the table, while his right hand is also not even in front of the chicken drawing. For moment, it really looked like he was not even eating the chicken at all, but rather cutting out pieces of his own thighs or crotch under the table, to cannibalize Ourboros-style.
@@Nionivek So, what you're saying is, that Mr. Boring is a Lord? I can buy that, his subjects all left, cause he ransacked all their gardens, only the witch was stubborn enough to stay.
Apparently, according to what I looked up, there was a superstition that denying a pregnant woman any food she was craving, would cause bad luck. Doesn't help that the wife refused to eat anything other then the rampion from the garden. I guess that's why them stealing from the garden doesn't seem to be seen as ...bad, I guess? Though I don't know why they just don't go into town and get some rather then steal it from their neighbor. EDIT: After further research, I also learned that some versions imply or outright say that the witch cursed Rapunzel's mom to crave her rampion, basically orchestrating the whole mess to get their child. ...For some reason.
Probably because childbirth especially back then is a painful process and around the time the story was originally conceived the chances of dying during the delivery or after were very, very high.
"Excuse me, witch neighbor, but my wife looks at your garden every day, craving that lovely, delicious crisp salad you spend your time growing. Might I purchase some vegetables from you?" "Ignoring that you called me 'witch neighbor', I _am_ intrigued by the concept of vending my groceries, especially with the appeal to my ego. I'd say it's a deal! I might even be able to pay a seamstress in town to get some work done..."
Ah yes, the story of Rapuzel we all remember. Where Rapunzel was an afterthought and the central focus was on her parents stealing vegetables. Not since Golden Films Pocahontas have I seen a story done such justice.
I mean technically Rapunzel herself while a focus wasn't really a character so to speak. She is similar to Disney's Sleeping Beauty where someone else is the main character but she is the title character.
@@Nionivek In fairness to Disney's "Sleeping Beauty", the real main CHARACTERS in that film were actually the Three Good Fairies, which I honestly can't complain too much about since between the three of them they were far more interesting characters to follow than either Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) or the Prince. I would have much preferred to see a movie that solely focused on just the three of them taking on Maleficent; perhaps a prequel film that explored their origins together (would have been far better than the live-action schlock we did get).
Ah, so our noble heroes are selffish, gutless thieves who get their comeuppance for chronically and unashamedly stealing from their neighbor. _genie voice_ Okay...
There's a version of the story that explains why the stole the salad. The wife was pregnant and had the cravings for salad and since it was winter, the evil witch's garden was the only one growing vegetables and so the husband stole the salad out of desperation.
The Borings later had a son, whom they loved more than Rapunzel. They fed him all the chickens and salads he wanted and he grew big and strong. They loved him so much they named him Beauty. Beauty invited himself in to every house in the village and took what he wanted, bringing his parents a lot of profit. When Beauty grew up, he ate all the food left in the house, and sailed to France where he settled and became a respected business owner. When he got older, people started calling him Old Man Boring. Hyeeeeeeeeeee
"Then again, I don't think anyone is capable of love in this barely animated world!", Phelous, don't ever change. I live for this commentary, makes me actually wish I could have him riffing while I'm watching bad movies. "Mmmm, chocolate.... but then again, cabbages", same. Same.
Hahaha.. the way what-his-face narrates the story is as energetic as a sloth on Valium 🤣 His read of the “the couple wanted a child they could love” makes me think they already had 17 kids they couldn’t stand, and just want one that they could actually like a bit🤦♀️😂
I know there's like a million weirder details in this story, but the thing I can't get over is how the wife is willing to starve herself to death just because she can't have cabbage, and specifically her neighbor's cabbage. Like, she can't just go down to the market and buy herself her own vegetables, or grow her own, or even just accept the fact that she has no vegetables and just eat the food they have. Nope, she has to slowly and painfully starve herself, because apparently at that point there's nothing left for her to live for.
It's annoying enough on it's own. Even more annoying that you can make a drinking game and get shit-faced if you take a shot everytime Salad is mentioned.
Apparently it's a European thing. When ordering a chicken sandwich roll in the school canteen where I'm studying I can get it with 2 salads. Salads being 2 different vegetables such as lettuce and tomatoes.
Don't know if anyone else already mentioned this, but another problem with the whole "witch is the bad guy" thing is that the witch in this version is actually using the vegetables she's growing, so it's not like they're going to waste - she's eating them, making juice, and making homemade cosmetics, and she's not doing so with magic. She's not even using magic to sustain her appearance or anything, just eating healthy and trying to look nice. Although compared to everything else, this is certainly not the biggest issue with Bevanfield's storytelling.
Completely agree with you. Also you made me realise than rarely do the Rapunzel witches ever use magic. I can think of Fenchelchen's witch mother, and that's it
Wow, this is impressively stupid. If you can afford an entire chicken and loaf of bread for dinner every day you could probably afford some cabbage too. Disney are sometimes criticized for changing classic fairy tales but this is one case where I think we can all agree that it was for the way way better.
I don't know if this version mentions it, but the wife wants this really specific kind of lettuce, that only the witch has. Still, why they didn't just try to offer money to the witch for the lettuce is a mystery.
While I won't argue that Disney's changes might have been for the better (in the case of Rapunzel, at least). THIS movie doesn't even manage to tell the original story right. I mean, don't get me wrong a lot of the dumber points do still show up, but at least there they make slightly more sense. For example, in the original story, the wife had a craving for a very specific type of vegetable that only grew in the Witch's garden (supposedly it was magical, or something), and despite asking the witch was not willing to share...it doesn't justify stealing, but it does make the characters' action feel slightly less stupid.
@@cartooncritique6625 Look at it this, way. The disney versions of some fairy tales are actually more hardcore than some tellings of the original story. Like Beauty and the Beast. Where the rose had a purpose, Belle herself made the deal with the beast, and the beast actually had a timer on how long he had before the transformation was permanent. Compared to the original story... where he'd die of loneliness, yeah no.
@@tcrpgfan Disney sometimes fixes problems that the original story had, I will agree...but I wouldn't go so far as to call them "hardcore", because frankly you can't get much more hardcore than what the Grimm Bros wrote; also Disney weren't the first ones to give the rose a purpose. Beauty and the Beast is a VERY old story, and so they're a many different versions of the story; not all of them had him dying of loneliness.
@@FrenkTheJoy In one version, the witch actually cast a spell on the wife while she was pregnant to force her to ONLY crave the vegetables in the witch's garden. She did this knowing that the husband would come to steal them, because she didn't share willingly, and then the witch could make the deal with him to take their baby. But of course, the Disney one at least gives a damn REASON why Mother Gothel kidnapped the baby. Whereas this one is just... The witch wanted their baby. It wasn't really a punishment for the Borings either, because they don't even react or care in the end. Yeah they would have been great parents...
Is it worth noting that as the mustachioed husband is eating, his fork and knife are clearly going under the table? No wonder his wife is so thin. She's disgusted that he keeps eating his own legs.
''If I cannot eat some of that fresh, green, crispy, crunchy salad in the witch's garden, I believe I will surely die.'' You mean if you don't eat, you'll eventually starve to death? What fairy tale nonsense! Everybody knows that people in real life only ever die of loneliness.
You should check out Timeless Tales by Hallmark. The animation is nowhere near as bad as Bevanfield or Dingo, but the voice acting is always over the top and hilarious.
So let me get this straight: this story is about a hard working (but very impulsive) gardener who just wants to maintain her youth through the vegetables she grows and was tricked by her selfish and judgemental neighbors into taking care of their daughter after they stole her produce. Man Mother Gothel sure was a blatant example of Disney performing Adaptational Villainy, right next to Frollo from the Hunchback movie.
Cthonis Princess A year old comment intended as a joke on this interpretation’s protagonist centered morality; and its taken seriously as though I think this is how the original tale was told.
Well when you juice something green like kale or spinach everything turns green, so may be her carrot juice had radishes, cucumbers and kale added into it. I've done juicers before and the drinks always turned green even with only two leaves added in there.
So we got a MK witch Sindel, and a Saiyan with really long hair? As well as a talking racoon, an old man, among other things. Sounds like it could be a great idea for a anime/manga/cartoon.
So what’s gonna happen when the parents realize the Witch is stuck in the tower and can’t produce anymore fruits & Vegetables? I guess they didn’t think of that
Deep sigh... That beginning jingle. It brings back memories. My mom bought me the goldilocks vhs, and I, even as a child remembered wathcing the animation and wondering it's choppiness.
Me: So... His mustache writes graffiti in Dingo's masterpieces? What a twist! Beauty: gasp You: I've never said that. I just said that his mustache really likes chicken, but I've never said that the mustache writes about his love for chicken on walls, fences, etc.
"Hey, we need a way to make the villain seem more evil because technically having the protagonist's parents steal from her kinda puts THEM in the wrong. So, uh, any ideas?" "You could make her a witch." "Okay, so do we write in her using powers or something?" "No, just make sure the narrator specifically says she's a witch. That should be enough. I mean, that automatically makes her more villain-y by fairytale standards, right?"
They could have had her be a witch who has a massive ego because she can use magic and nobody else can. She could also cast spells on people who ask for vegetables, because she's selfish and doesn't want to share. And the married couple could have been made to be really poor and had to resort to stealing from her for food. Stealing is wrong either way, but the world's not perfect and we could still feel sorry for the couple. But nah. Let's just make the wife a whiny, ungrateful vegan, the husband lacking in common sense, and the witch vain, all while making her magic capabilities a completely informed trait.
If I remember correctly, in the original story the woman was a witch who wasn't mentioned performing spells either, however it was supposed to be a plot point to why the husband character would steal the vegetables rather then confront the woman since he was terrified of her.
The Internet wondered why a Film like this needed to exist. When asked, Phelous stared out the window at his Neighbor's Garden. Some say that he can still be seen there to this very day.
Phelous, what the hell is wrong with you!? Risking your life with these movies for us!? Aw, you shouldn't have! Now excuse me, I have to get my yippee beans for this!
It wasn't even like the witch threatened to kill them like in Beauty & The Beast. She made an offer and they agreed because they like lettuce that damn much.
Dubuya Jay Now I’m thinking of wabuu saying famous lines from other Romero walking dead films, “ When there’s no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth, because they’re soooo stupid.”
So the moral is "Don't grow a garden since you dingus neighbors will steal it even after you steal their kid?"....or is it "You can get away with theft so long as you throw your kid in as the payment"? Also, i'm surprised the two "parents" actually took over the garden (And the witch's house, now that I think about it). With how they behave, you'd expect them to just starve since neither can get their stolen-salad fix
Very valid observation, as the chicken never really seem to be depleted during the meal. I guess you have to watch Dream Master: Erotic Invader, to get your answer. But do you really want to know it?
I did hear another version of this story when I was younger. In which when Repunzel's mother asks her husband to get the vegetables from the witche's garden, the husband was smart enough to point out that it would be stealing and it would have been better if they would asked the witch to buy some. But the mother literally bullied him into stealing them instead.
"Unbelievable! All the other men steal for their wives! I am not asking for a golden crown, just some vegetables for goodness' sake! You are such a sissy girl! Why can't you just steal like a proper man! If I weren't pregnant I would have done it myself!" - Rapunzel's mother, at some point.
Phelous, how are you man? How are you holding up? I fear these movies are slowly chipping away at your sanity. Sooner or later you’ll end up like James MacAvoy in Spilt, with multiple personalities of Dingo characters.
I kind of feel annoyed by how often the describe the salad as "lovely crunchy crispy fresh green tempting salad", like they're trying so hard to make it sound appetising by piling as many adjectives as possible, but failing anyway.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one so amused by "yippee beans". 7:30 I'm having more and more trouble telling your edits apart from the actual movie every week. Thanks for the great laughs as usual! ...Let's be fair, he probably would do nothing at all, given what we know of him. :P

And one version has they actually asking the witch who says no. And the stealing part was out of desperation

Although compared to everything else, this is certainly not the biggest issue with Bevanfield's storytelling.
Completely agree with you. Also you made me realise than rarely do the Rapunzel witches ever use magic. I can think of Fenchelchen's witch mother, and that's it
They should've named this movie "Bungled".
Wait Repunzel is name after a vegetable?! Is Repunzel a sayain!?
That would explain the long blonde hair and blue eyes...
Imagine her Super Saiyan form with all that hair...We're talking like a 10 cubic meter ball of hair on top of her head.

Imagine her Super saiyan 3 form.
Rapunzel is Goku's daughter confirmed!

Wow, this is impressively stupid. If you can afford an entire chicken and loaf of bread for dinner every day you could probably afford some cabbage too. Disney are sometimes criticized for changing classic fairy tales but this is one case where I think we can all agree that it was for the way way better.
I don't know if this version mentions it, but the wife wants this really specific kind of lettuce, that only the witch has. Still, why they didn't just try to offer money to the witch for the lettuce is a mystery.
While I won't argue that Disney's changes might have been for the better (in the case of Rapunzel, at least). THIS movie doesn't even manage to tell the original story right. I mean, don't get me wrong a lot of the dumber points do still show up, but at least there they make slightly more sense. For example, in the original story, the wife had a craving for a very specific type of vegetable that only grew in the Witch's garden (supposedly it was magical, or something), and despite asking the witch was not willing to share...it doesn't justify stealing, but it does make the characters' action feel slightly less stupid.
@@cartooncritique6625 Look at it this, way. The disney versions of some fairy tales are actually more hardcore than some tellings of the original story. Like Beauty and the Beast. Where the rose had a purpose, Belle herself made the deal with the beast, and the beast actually had a timer on how long he had before the transformation was permanent. Compared to the original story... where he'd die of loneliness, yeah no.
@@tcrpgfan Disney sometimes fixes problems that the original story had, I will agree...but I wouldn't go so far as to call them "hardcore", because frankly you can't get much more hardcore than what the Grimm Bros wrote; also Disney weren't the first ones to give the rose a purpose. Beauty and the Beast is a VERY old story, and so they're a many different versions of the story; not all of them had him dying of loneliness.
@@FrenkTheJoy In one version, the witch actually cast a spell on the wife while she was pregnant to force her to ONLY crave the vegetables in the witch's garden. She did this knowing that the husband would come to steal them, because she didn't share willingly, and then the witch could make the deal with him to take their baby. But of course, the Disney one at least gives a damn REASON why Mother Gothel kidnapped the baby.
Whereas this one is just... The witch wanted their baby. It wasn't really a punishment for the Borings either, because they don't even react or care in the end. Yeah they would have been great parents...
Yippee beans sound like what Senzu beans would be called in the big green dub if they did not use the original Japanese name
An ideal food for space warriors!
@@dubuyajay9964 nice
Dude, this is really funny. I chuckled quite hard imagining it being said in the Big Green dub...
@@johnt.campbell316 glad I made you laugh
“He shrugged his shoulders and said 'Oh well...'“
Did you really pass up the opportunity for an early credits joke?
I know XD
Is it worth noting that as the mustachioed husband is eating, his fork and knife are clearly going under the table?
No wonder his wife is so thin. She's disgusted that he keeps eating his own legs.
''If I cannot eat some of that fresh, green, crispy, crunchy salad in the witch's garden, I believe I will surely die.''
You mean if you don't eat, you'll eventually starve to death? What fairy tale nonsense! Everybody knows that people in real life only ever die of loneliness.
Rapunzel: Mother! You're still alive!
Witch: Too bad YOU will die
Phelous’ videos are like injections of yippee beans.
They are madness!
You should check out Timeless Tales by Hallmark. The animation is nowhere near as bad as Bevanfield or Dingo, but the voice acting is always over the top and hilarious.
Disney's Tangled ripped off Bevanfield's Rapunzel. 0 out of 10.
Clearly Bevanfield's is the superior adaptation. My only regret is they didn't show more of the dad robbing their neighbor's garden.
The Bevanfield Ditty sounds like Linus and Lucy, except the pianist forgot the next part and just keeps repeating the beginning.
9:00 that Two Bad Neighbors sign made my day!
1:20 "Free DVDs are like injections of yippee beans"
that quote is so random and so goofy that got me laughing my ass off when I saw this review
Yes, and it wasn't the cartoon itself it was the quote by the editor that got me laughing
So let me get this straight: this story is about a hard working (but very impulsive) gardener who just wants to maintain her youth through the vegetables she grows and was tricked by her selfish and judgemental neighbors into taking care of their daughter after they stole her produce.
Man Mother Gothel sure was a blatant example of Disney performing Adaptational Villainy, right next to Frollo from the Hunchback movie.
So to quote Phelous: Disney did it better!
It's almost like they were halfway to making something like Wicked.
BigK13372 Only in this movie, in the original story, the fairy (not witch) was a villainess.
Cthonis Princess A year old comment intended as a joke on this interpretation’s protagonist centered morality; and its taken seriously as though I think this is how the original tale was told.
@@BigK13372 I mean is the internet you have a 50/50 chance of your sarcasm being taken as real by someone.
Phelous, I know you would not read this, but when my life goes to shit, your videos cheer me up and prove that there is life after darkness.
I did read it! Glad to hear these help cheer you up!
@@phelous Thank you!
I assume the garden had a fantastic supply of yippee beans. This movie however gets ½ yippee beans out of five.
A movie filled with characters so stupid that Wabuu didn't even feel the need to point it out.
Wambuuuuuuua
ALL of these characters are SOOOO stupid! *headbob* Hee-hee-hee-hee-hee!
WHY DID YOU OVER LOOK THE GREEN CARROT JUICE!? I don’t understand what even a witch would drink GREEN CARROTS
hiddentrueth She was so vain, she refused to admit she was color blind.
They're magical carrots, obviously.
I don't think this is even the first thing where I have seen green liquid referred as carrot juice
That souds tasyey
Well when you juice something green like kale or spinach everything turns green, so may be her carrot juice had radishes, cucumbers and kale added into it. I've done juicers before and the drinks always turned green even with only two leaves added in there.
Old Man and Wabuu working together is pretty cool, but what if they did a fusion?
“Most of these spices are soooooo useless, hehehe.”
A delicious candle foooooooor yooooooouuuuuu. Just kidding, it's mine. CHOMP
This movie has the most terrifying villain of all time:
a vegan
Rotting your corpse while people are eating is soooo rude.
Hehehe
Don't be mean, some people can't help it and it's not easy to get rid of old habits.
Bevanfield movies are so bad, yet I love watching how incompetent they are.
=^.^=
I'm getting suggestions to ACTUAL GoodTimes videos because of this guy.
Well Princess, his reviews are known to transcend reality so I'm not surprised that it reached all the way there. :P
@@98953812 Indeed. We the people of Hyrule hold this wise sage in very high regard. ;)
If he has to suffer so do you
@@zeldahylia8549 As you should. :)
It's true. I've already watched several cartoons because of phelan lol
So we got a MK witch Sindel, and a Saiyan with really long hair? As well as a talking racoon, an old man, among other things. Sounds like it could be a great idea for a anime/manga/cartoon.
I was wonding why a strange looking person in the intro card had pickles for eyes. I'm glad that was resolved
So what’s gonna happen when the parents realize the Witch is stuck in the tower and can’t produce anymore fruits & Vegetables? I guess they didn’t think of that
Daily Mail: They are madness!
Leonidas: Madness? This. Is. SPARTA!
Phelous: Sparta? THIS! IS! BEVANFIELD!
Deep sigh... That beginning jingle. It brings back memories. My mom bought me the goldilocks vhs, and I, even as a child remembered wathcing the animation and wondering it's choppiness.
Rapunzel's Mom: World's Whiniest Vegan!
Wife: I shall die...from lack of salad! 🥗
Its either her or Daniel Bryan

Proof not all vegans are whiny and horrible: Jenna Marbles

"How dare you come into my garden and steal my salad"
Me: Um... I think you mean vegetables. It's not called salad until you prepared it.
Yes but eh it’s still grammatically correct so 🤷♀️best to let it slide
This whole movie could have been avoided if Mrs. Boring had just asked the witch for some vegetables
"Yippee Beans"? Is that British rag newspaper talk for stimulants?
I'm British and I've never heard that before
i'm british and trust me we find the whole yippie beans thing as weird as you do
British person here and this is a good example of the Daily Mail's general insanity.
I don’t think it actually means anything and daily mail are just INSANE but I like to think it translates to BREAKFAST or supper😜
I have a Dream...
That one day one of these companies will produce a decent movie adaptation of a classic novel.
It's the nature of dreams to end. Lucky us this works with nightmares as well, especially animated nightmares.
To quote the original Broly: IT'S JUST A DREAM!!! *throws green blast at your dream*
They can’t make one...if they’re DEAD!
Keep dreaming
The movements of the man's mustache while he's eating are sort of hypnotizing...
As a Brit I can happily say, never trust anything associated with the Daily Mail
Mmm
Damn, that guy's mustache really likes chicken.
Me: So... His mustache writes graffiti in Dingo's masterpieces? What a twist!
Beauty: gasp
You: I've never said that. I just said that his mustache really likes chicken, but I've never said that the mustache writes about his love for chicken on walls, fences, etc.
Golly gosh my word, I sure hope 'yippee beans' becomes the next popular catchphrase!
Did the witch do anything... witchy? Did she use magic at all? If not what's the point of that woman being a witch?
"Hey, we need a way to make the villain seem more evil because technically having the protagonist's parents steal from her kinda puts THEM in the wrong. So, uh, any ideas?"
"You could make her a witch."
"Okay, so do we write in her using powers or something?"
"No, just make sure the narrator specifically says she's a witch. That should be enough. I mean, that automatically makes her more villain-y by fairytale standards, right?"
Obviously we have an unreliable narrator on our hands.
They could have had her be a witch who has a massive ego because she can use magic and nobody else can. She could also cast spells on people who ask for vegetables, because she's selfish and doesn't want to share. And the married couple could have been made to be really poor and had to resort to stealing from her for food. Stealing is wrong either way, but the world's not perfect and we could still feel sorry for the couple.
But nah. Let's just make the wife a whiny, ungrateful vegan, the husband lacking in common sense, and the witch vain, all while making her magic capabilities a completely informed trait.
so she's EEEEVIIIIL!!!!!1!!
If I remember correctly, in the original story the woman was a witch who wasn't mentioned performing spells either, however it was supposed to be a plot point to why the husband character would steal the vegetables rather then confront the woman since he was terrified of her.
The Internet wondered why a Film like this needed to exist.
When asked, Phelous stared out the window at his Neighbor's Garden.
Some say that he can still be seen there to this very day.
Now someone needs to edit Phelous into that Mrs. Boring window...
😂BRRRRILANT👍
Phelous, what the hell is wrong with you!? Risking your life with these movies for us!? Aw, you shouldn't have!
Now excuse me, I have to get my yippee beans for this!
The dad looks like a normalized Waluigi
Candy Cane lol!
Mr. Boring, yet another forgotten Mario brother.
Judging by the quality of this short he should stay forgotten.
Or like a skinny Morshu.
Phelous is covering Bevanfield again? And he's making fun of the Daily Mail? Has my birthday come early? :D
It wasn't even like the witch threatened to kill them like in Beauty & The Beast. She made an offer and they agreed because they like lettuce that damn much.
When's the Dream Master: Erotic Invader review?
Sounds like something Cinema Snob would review
That would involve watching that so probably half past never.
Was that the spin-off Nightmare on Elm St porno? 🤔
When he also reviews Coven for the 3DO...
I like my games with no gameplay and a ton of softcore cinemax porn!
@@phelous AWW :(
Protip to my fellow witches: Don't demand a firstborn child in payment for services. Children are really expensive to care for, just get cash instead.
Everyone knows that the most important food in any German's life, especially in the 1800's, was lettuce!
Weren't cabbages legit thought of as weeds back then?
13:10 Great now I'm imagining Wabu in a Night of the Living Dead remake.
"Nice shot. Ok, he's dead. That's another one for the fire."
@@wstine79 "Most of the zombies are soooooo stupid! Heh heh heh heh heh heh!" *Blam!*
Dubuya Jay Now I’m thinking of wabuu saying famous lines from other Romero walking dead films, “ When there’s no more room in hell, the dead will walk the earth, because they’re soooo stupid.”
I'm surprised Phelan didn't make a Luigi joke given how the husband looks like Luigi.
Every time I see this stuff I hope you don’t find the crappy animation I did a voice in that was distributed.
12:22 Bevanfield Beauty must have passed by Rapunzel's tower and gotten that song stuck in her head.
*"LALALALALA!"*
Nice to see Wabuu & Old Man going on a hunting trip during Ugly Bevanfield Morons hunting season!
Yippie beans? Oh boy my favorite!
Malnutrition is an issue. Would explain why she is craving. So much for the couple are connected.
So the moral is "Don't grow a garden since you dingus neighbors will steal it even after you steal their kid?"....or is it "You can get away with theft so long as you throw your kid in as the payment"?
Also, i'm surprised the two "parents" actually took over the garden (And the witch's house, now that I think about it). With how they behave, you'd expect them to just starve since neither can get their stolen-salad fix
Okay, but why and how did the dad keep eating his own crotch?
We saw this happen in Hannibal did we? But there it was executed with less enthusiasm.
Now I can't unsee it.
Cheers.
Very valid observation, as the chicken never really seem to be depleted during the meal. I guess you have to watch Dream Master: Erotic Invader, to get your answer. But do you really want to know it?
@BilboKoira Golly Mahgod!

Wait'll you get to Bavenfield's Jungle Book.

@@phelous Do you have women's size and cut?
She knows what she wants and she wants it now. She wants you cause she's Ms. Vain
I did hear another version of this story when I was younger. In which when Repunzel's mother asks her husband to get the vegetables from the witche's garden, the husband was smart enough to point out that it would be stealing and it would have been better if they would asked the witch to buy some. But the mother literally bullied him into stealing them instead.
"Unbelievable! All the other men steal for their wives! I am not asking for a golden crown, just some vegetables for goodness' sake! You are such a sissy girl! Why can't you just steal like a proper man! If I weren't pregnant I would have done it myself!" - Rapunzel's mother, at some point.
Ooooh, another Bevanfield gem for us to all enjoy together!!! Sweeeeet 🤣
Phelous, how are you man? How are you holding up? I fear these movies are slowly chipping away at your sanity. Sooner or later you’ll end up like James MacAvoy in Spilt, with multiple personalities of Dingo characters.
more of a Christine Chandler deal
@@mathieuleader8601 who?
yep, these bevanfield films are a chore to watch
I kind of feel annoyed by how often the describe the salad as "lovely crunchy crispy fresh green tempting salad", like they're trying so hard to make it sound appetising by piling as many adjectives as possible, but failing anyway.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one so amused by "yippee beans".
7:30 I'm having more and more trouble telling your edits apart from the actual movie every week. Thanks for the great laughs as usual! ...Let's be fair, he probably would do nothing at all, given what we know of him. :P
I think this is my favorite review ever. Too bad Phelous can't do the commentary for these cartoons. They would probably sell more.
MOOOORE? YOU WANT MOOOOOOORE?!?!?!?!?!
So all of Rapunzel could've been avoided by buying salad from their neighbor since she seemed to only be mad they were stealing it?
