WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.191 Hello down there! 00:00:01.381 --> 00:00:05.311 I just finished watching the Snow White live-action remake. 00:00:05.858 --> 00:00:09.568 And now, I'm leaving the parking lot on my way home. 00:00:10.228 --> 00:00:12.643 I wasn't going to see it initially because 00:00:12.643 --> 00:00:15.490 I'm beyond tired of live-action remakes. 00:00:15.840 --> 00:00:16.930 I don't like them. 00:00:17.713 --> 00:00:19.523 I do not like greens eggs and ham. 00:00:19.789 --> 00:00:24.999 And the only reason I decided to go see this one is because 00:00:24.999 --> 00:00:27.989 somehow there was a lot of hype for it with people saying 00:00:27.989 --> 00:00:30.819 it's one of the best live-action remakes ever made. 00:00:31.702 --> 00:00:35.522 Now that I finished it, I can say I disagree. 00:00:36.332 --> 00:00:39.469 I apologize for the wacky camera angle here 00:00:39.469 --> 00:00:41.839 that looks like it's filming a dick pic, 00:00:42.423 --> 00:00:46.622 but I wanted to just give you my raw thoughts 00:00:46.622 --> 00:00:48.704 immediately after seeing it. 00:00:49.587 --> 00:00:50.867 I didn't really like it. 00:00:51.712 --> 00:00:54.442 I know there was a lot of controversy with the movie. 00:00:54.926 --> 00:00:58.296 Don't really know what it all was. I didn't pay too much attention. 00:00:58.296 --> 00:01:00.826 I know the star, Rachel Zegler, apparently 00:01:00.826 --> 00:01:02.956 had, like, some bad interviews or something 00:01:02.956 --> 00:01:08.096 and Gal Gadot, people say, is, like, the worst actress of our generation. 00:01:09.432 --> 00:01:10.242 Couldn't tell ya. 00:01:11.372 --> 00:01:14.432 All I know is I didn't like the movie. 00:01:18.387 --> 00:01:21.727 So setting aside the controversy with it, 00:01:21.727 --> 00:01:23.877 was the film good in its own right? 00:01:24.781 --> 00:01:26.881 Not to me, it wasn't. 00:01:27.393 --> 00:01:31.273 But I'm also not the target demographic anymore, 00:01:31.273 --> 00:01:33.613 I'm a fuckin' 30-year-old greaseball. NOTE Paragraph 00:01:34.409 --> 00:01:39.789 The Snow White remake, it shares a little bit in common with the original. 00:01:40.417 --> 00:01:42.847 But it feels like it wanted to carve its own path. 00:01:42.847 --> 00:01:45.591 It's a little bit longer than the original, 00:01:45.591 --> 00:01:47.191 so it adds a little bit more. 00:01:47.191 --> 00:01:52.210 Not a ton, but it adds things that nobody gives a fuck about 00:01:52.170 --> 00:01:54.840 and it really feels like there was two different visions 00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:57.448 for the film that ended up clashing. 00:01:57.448 --> 00:02:02.238 So they have the seven dwarves, but they also have seven bandits, 00:02:03.175 --> 00:02:05.565 which I don't get the point of. 00:02:05.565 --> 00:02:09.888 The only bandit that matters is the main one, Jonathan. 00:02:10.594 --> 00:02:14.240 Every other bandit, I don't think they even had a name. 00:02:14.134 --> 00:02:17.340 There was, like, one scene where they said one of their names, 00:02:17.340 --> 00:02:19.514 but you don't know who the fuck they're talking about 00:02:19.514 --> 00:02:22.340 'cause they have never mentioned any of them by name. 00:02:22.335 --> 00:02:24.145 I don't know why they're here. 00:02:24.145 --> 00:02:26.618 It feels like they are the remnants of what 00:02:26.618 --> 00:02:28.658 the original direction was for this remake. 00:02:28.658 --> 00:02:33.456 At least that's my little fuckin' tinfoil condom conspiracy theory. 00:02:33.456 --> 00:02:37.187 It feels like the seven bandits were supposed to replace the dwarves 00:02:37.187 --> 00:02:40.607 but then they decided not to do that, 00:02:40.607 --> 00:02:43.482 so now you have the seven bandits and the seven dwarves, 00:02:43.482 --> 00:02:45.665 and it just doesn't mesh well at all. 00:02:46.475 --> 00:02:50.315 Really, most of the movie I don't think meshes super well. 00:02:50.426 --> 00:02:52.184 There's a lot of new songs in it that 00:02:52.184 --> 00:02:55.254 I didn't recognize from the original and I thought they blew ass. 00:02:55.844 --> 00:02:57.974 I wasn't a fan. 00:02:58.515 --> 00:03:01.400 But there was a couple songs that I recognized from 00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:02.584 the original, and they were fine. 00:03:02.584 --> 00:03:05.474 Those were kind of fun. Like the classic Heigh Ho, 00:03:05.474 --> 00:03:06.574 that was kind of sweet. 00:03:07.859 --> 00:03:11.029 Truthfully, I just don't have a whole lot to say about the movie 00:03:11.082 --> 00:03:14.582 'cause it is absolutely just not for me. 00:03:15.392 --> 00:03:18.401 Also, I feel like I'm shouting at the phone screen right now 00:03:18.452 --> 00:03:19.742 like I got headphones on, 00:03:20.039 --> 00:03:22.099 but... you know, it is what it is. 00:03:22.943 --> 00:03:27.163 It's just... I don't... like, I (laughs) I really feel like 00:03:27.698 --> 00:03:30.598 I'm at this point shaking my fist at the clouds. 00:03:30.598 --> 00:03:33.310 I don't really... don't see... 00:03:33.874 --> 00:03:37.124 why you'd ever choose to watch this over the original. 00:03:37.376 --> 00:03:40.266 Like, it's not a "bad" movie, really... 00:03:40.315 --> 00:03:42.675 Like, it's not even terrible. I think, there's things about it 00:03:42.726 --> 00:03:44.715 that don't really work for me, personally. 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 But, but it's, again It's not for me 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 I'm not a 6 year old 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 But like, when I'm watching this and remembering the original 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Like the poison apple in the original for example 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Big deal 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Like an actual huge piece of the original 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 In this one, it's nothing 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 It is beyond nothing 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So like, the... 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 The evil... 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So when Snow White gets the poison apple 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 ? 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 She takes a bite and then she gets the sleeping death 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Well, she only stays sleeping dead for like 10 minutes 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 It, it was a sleeping snooze 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Like she actually just took a nap because 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 she was only in that state for 2 scenes 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And then Jonathon came up and gave her a kiss 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And then she was immediately freed from it 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So like there's never like it doesn't even feel like there's 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 ever anything at stake 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 It doesn't even feel like serious 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 It just, it's crazy to say this but 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 It feels like it moves so fuckin' fast despite being longer than 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Longer than the original 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And yet offers less reasons to get invested 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 If that makes sense 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Like I shit you not, she gets the fuckin' poison apple, 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 she falls asleep with ? 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 The dwarfs come up and they're like "aw jinkies" 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So then they hold like a fuckin' viking burial 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 kind of 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 they put her on a rock 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 and they're like lamenting that she's shed the mortal coil 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And like it switches to another scene with Jonathon who 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 breaks out of the, the castle, and then he 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 immediately shows up, and they're still there 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Like over her body, her corpse 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So I think it's really only been like 5 minutes 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 They haven't begun the funeral 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 and Jonathon shows up and kisses her, and she's fine 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So like, it never really feels like anything's a big deal 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So you're kinda just there to enjoy the music moreso than anything 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Which I wasn't liking 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And to be honest, while it's just me and you here 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 I walked out of the movie 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And I'm kind of embarrassed to say that 'cause 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 I never walk out of movies, and this movie 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 like I said, isn't even like the worst movie I've ever seen or anything 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 It's not even the worst live action remake I've seen 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 But I walked out with like the last 15 minutes 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 'Cause I was just so fuckin' bored 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And I really was just, really in a, like a, trance 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Like a ? state 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 And I was ready to leave 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 So I didn't, maybe the ending really saves it 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Maybe the ending ties it all together with an absolute masterpiece 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 But I doubt it 99:59:59.999 --> 99:59:59.999 Now as someone who stared in the Hunger Games ?
