    Not only did Drew buy the rights but she paid extra in order to have the angels not use guns! She didn’t think they needed them and that the girls could be badass and hold up their own without them. Slay slay slay.

      But also guns take the slay out of any spy movie I feel cause you can just shoot someone and that's it. No acrobatics, no contrived gadgets, and the very high risk of being actually killed? That's not fun.

    This was the “golden age” of the movie star, which is why movies like this, rom coms, and other mid budget films were extremely popular. Stars filled seats then so people would literally go to the cinema to see the new Cameron Diaz film, the same way we now go to see the new marvel film. Now we’re in the “death of the movie Star” age, which is why we’ve seen a massive decline in mid budget films and studios focus on backing high concept “blockbusters”, remakes and adaptations where the franchise or the concept fills seats.
    It’s also why films could have wacky or flimsy or messy or risky plots because the focus was on the actors, and it’s why star studded cast films were so common then.

      The 2000s were actually more likely the beginning of the death of the movie star. The golden age would probably be around the eighties or somewhere like that.
      I personally think that the idea of the movie star is a bit antithetical to the idea of telling an immersive story onscreen, since people only see the actor not the character.
      And yes, I got that from Bo Burnham.

    I think he's name the Creepy Thin Man because there was a series of old movies from the 40s called the Thin Man, where the Thin man wore a lot of dapper suits and had slicked back hair. So he's a creepy version of that. Not that I've actually seen the Thin Man. I like my old Movies to be bizarre.

      Yeah... it's actually kind of confusing - the original film you are referring to is called The Thin Man because the murder mystery involves confusion over the weight of a murder victim that is discovered - it's not referring to the protagonist detective as the "Thin Man" but people began associating it with the protag as they kept making sequels and including the phrase "Thin Man" in the title even though he really wasn't thin.

    I remember hearing the criticism of these movies as a teenager. And like understanding it. But also as a little girl? I thought those three were so amazing. They were heroes.

    The biggest plot hole to me is, didn’t Charlie to a background check on Eric Knox, and figure it was that double agents kid, who may or may not want to have Charlie killed?
    But I was 13 when the first movie came out and I loved it. I even remember getting the dvd in some meal deal with Pizza Hut. I even choreographed a dance to independent woman inspired by the movies and performed it in a dance competition

    i'm so glad that someone else has mentioned being scared/weirded out by older media. i think there's something about the film grain that used to just make me immediately say no if i encountered it. i've thankfully kind of grown out of it now, but that's almost only because i grew up in the 90s, and seeing some of that now, it's all film grain.

    The memories of playing Charlie's Angels on the playground at recess in elementary school and arguing over who gets to be wich angel after watching this at a sleepover. I WAS 8. The early 2000's were insane

    First, thin man is a term used for mysterious bad guys going back to film noir and mystery novels. Has nothing to do with the body type.
    Yes, Kelly Garrett was the OG Angel and the only actress and character to stay for the entire run of the serious. Her name is Jaclyn Smith. She made some pretty okay clothes for either K-Mart or Walmart back in the day.
    As someone who has watched all seasons of the original Charlie's Angels, I must point out that part of the "unseriousness," camp, and unrealistic nature of the movies is a call back to the original series. It was meant to be stupid and fun. Seasons 4 and 5 of the original series made zero sense, was about the sex appeal, and was trying so hard to be serious that it wasn't serious. The ridiculousness is what made it fun and ishow the movie is. If you're a fan of the show, you can find legitimate copies of scenes from the series in the movie that seems to have no point - but they do, to pay homage to the series. Those random scenes in the opening credits are to show the undercover roles they've taken up, especially some that go back to the original series or why they were chosen. Peep the scene of them being chained together, that is a call back to the pilot of the show. The nun scene goes back to a season 4 episode. Another important part of the show was that the Angels always get caught and have to break cover - because extra drama. Remember, this show was originally produced by the master of camp drama TV, Aaron Spelling. The cars, as well, were a major of the series and they even retained that in the movie. The racecar scene is a major plot point throughout the show because Farrah Fawcett's character, Jill Munroe, left the agency (and the show, but for other reasons) to race cars in Europe. I really do commend Drew Barrymore for holding true to so much of the original.
    PS Willis is in this movie because Demi Moore got him the role. Maybe not got, but asked for him.
    PSS During the jump, Madison slams the gun into the wall. It's rather distracting but funny.
