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, I, I just, 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.

00:03:44.971 --> 00:03:46.961
But, but it's, again
It's not for me

00:03:46.961 --> 00:03:48.550
I'm not a 6 year old

00:03:49.090 --> 00:03:52.137
But like, when I'm watching this
and remembering the original

00:03:52.137 --> 00:03:53.969
Like the poison apple in the
original for example

00:03:53.969 --> 00:03:54.819
Big deal

00:03:54.819 --> 00:03:58.437
Like an actual huge
piece of the original

00:03:58.437 --> 00:04:00.738
In this one, it's nothing

00:04:01.048 --> 00:04:02.638
It is beyond nothing

00:04:03.248 --> 00:04:05.172
So like, the...

00:04:06.052 --> 00:04:07.172
The evil...

00:04:08.961 --> 00:04:11.308
So when Snow White gets the poison apple

00:04:11.308 --> 00:04:12.741
By Gal Gadot

00:04:13.061 --> 00:04:15.544
She takes a bite and then she gets the
sleeping death

00:04:16.134 --> 00:04:21.318
Well, she only stays sleeping dead for
like 10 minutes

00:04:21.318 --> 00:04:23.286
It, it was a sleeping snooze

00:04:23.716 --> 00:04:26.303
Like she actually just took a nap because

00:04:26.303 --> 00:04:28.537
she was only in that state for 2 scenes

00:04:28.837 --> 00:04:31.021
And then Jonathon came up
and gave her a kiss

00:04:31.709 --> 00:04:34.127
And then she was immediately freed from it

00:04:34.127 --> 00:04:35.906
So like there's never, like it doesn't
even feel like there's

00:04:35.906 --> 00:04:38.141
ever anything at stake

00:04:38.141 --> 00:04:39.974
It doesn't even feel like serious

00:04:40.752 --> 00:04:43.874
It just, it's crazy to say this but

00:04:43.874 --> 00:04:47.075
It feels like it moves so fuckin' fast
despite being longer than

00:04:47.075 --> 00:04:48.792
Longer than the original

00:04:48.792 --> 00:04:52.462
And yet offers less reasons to
get invested

00:04:53.112 --> 00:04:54.244
If that makes sense

00:04:54.954 --> 00:04:56.951
Like I shit you not, she gets the fuckin'
poison apple,

00:04:57.511 --> 00:05:01.959
she falls asleep with Gal Gadot,
laying down all the evil stuff she's done

00:05:02.669 --> 00:05:05.427
The dwarfs come up and they're like
"aw jinkies"

00:05:05.427 --> 00:05:07.971
So then they hold like a fuckin' viking
burial

00:05:07.971 --> 00:05:08.570
kind of

00:05:08.570 --> 00:05:09.648
they put her on a rock

00:05:10.108 --> 00:05:13.386
and they're like lamenting that she's
shed the mortal coil

00:05:13.386 --> 00:05:16.421
And like it switches to another scene
with Jonathon who

00:05:16.421 --> 00:05:19.080
breaks out of the, the castle, and then he

00:05:19.080 --> 00:05:20.866
immediately shows up, and they're
still there

00:05:20.866 --> 00:05:22.882
Like over her body, her corpse

00:05:22.882 --> 00:05:25.097
So I think it's really only been like
5 minutes

00:05:25.097 --> 00:05:27.055
They haven't begun the funeral

00:05:27.055 --> 00:05:29.049
and Jonathon shows up and kisses her,
and she's fine

00:05:29.049 --> 00:05:33.185
So like, it never really feels like
anything's a big deal

00:05:34.055 --> 00:05:37.222
So you're kinda just there to enjoy the
music moreso than anything

00:05:37.222 --> 00:05:38.558
Which I wasn't liking

00:05:39.463 --> 00:05:42.244
And to be honest, while it's just me 
and you here

00:05:42.754 --> 00:05:45.193
I walked out of the movie

00:05:45.193 --> 00:05:47.095
And I'm kind of embarrassed to say
that 'cause

00:05:47.095 --> 00:05:50.206
I never walk out of movies, and this movie

00:05:50.206 --> 00:05:52.763
like I said, isn't even like the worst
movie I've ever seen or anything

00:05:52.763 --> 00:05:55.401
It's not even the worst live-action remake
I've seen

00:05:56.287 --> 00:05:58.966
But I walked out with like the
last 15 minutes

00:05:58.966 --> 00:06:00.794
'Cause I was just so fuckin' bored

00:06:01.234 --> 00:06:04.873
And I really was just, really in a,
like a, trance

00:06:04.873 --> 00:06:05.911
Like a ? state

00:06:05.911 --> 00:06:07.264
And I was ready to leave

00:06:07.828 --> 00:06:10.061
So I didn't, maybe the ending
really saves it

00:06:10.061 --> 00:06:14.213
Maybe the ending ties it all together
with an absolute masterpiece

00:06:14.213 --> 00:06:15.352
But I doubt it

00:06:15.580 --> 00:06:19.046
Now as someone who stared in the
Hunger Games MockingJay Part 1

00:06:19.046 --> 00:06:23.518
I feel qualified to opine on acting
performances

00:06:23.728 --> 00:06:27.758
And I would say, it was, fine, overall

00:06:27.758 --> 00:06:31.378
Like I, I actually think Rachel Zegler
did a good job as Snow White

00:06:31.378 --> 00:06:34.775
Like, she didn't do like anything crazy,
it wasn't y'know,

00:06:34.775 --> 00:06:36.392
some kind of Oscar worthy performance

00:06:36.392 --> 00:06:38.352
But I thought it was really just, fine

00:06:38.352 --> 00:06:43.754
Gal Godot, on the other hand, I do not
think was the right choice for this role

00:06:44.494 --> 00:06:48.051
It feels like she wanted to go like over
the top and like ham it up, but

00:06:48.051 --> 00:06:49.621
was a little reserved

00:06:49.861 --> 00:06:52.705
Like didn't really commit to going
crazy with it

00:06:53.055 --> 00:06:54.892
And then it just kind of

00:06:54.892 --> 00:07:00.055
Peters in this, really, bad purgatory
of just being flat

00:07:00.691 --> 00:07:04.275
Like she's never over the top enough
that it becomes charming

00:07:04.275 --> 00:07:06.610
and like disney villain like

00:07:06.610 --> 00:07:09.284
but it's also not played seriously
enough to the point where

00:07:09.284 --> 00:07:10.657
you like take her seriously

00:07:10.657 --> 00:07:12.961
so she's just kind of dull

00:07:13.881 --> 00:07:15.672
And everyone else around them,

00:07:15.672 --> 00:07:17.945
they don't have a big enough role 
to play for me to

00:07:17.945 --> 00:07:20.688
give a fuck to even talk about their performances

00:07:20.688 --> 00:07:22.420
I guess except for maybe Jonathon

00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:27.249
But Jonathon, he just had to be in 
love with Snow White immediately and

00:07:27.249 --> 00:07:28.350
that's kind of it

00:07:28.350 --> 00:07:31.844
So he didn't really get a whole lot
to do besides that

00:07:32.534 --> 00:07:38.516
Anyway though, that's kinda my review
of Snow White live-action 2025

00:07:39.263 --> 00:07:40.960
I didn't like it very much

00:07:40.960 --> 00:07:49.083
But I imagine if you're 6-years-old or
you just really like disney live-action remakes

00:07:49.083 --> 00:07:52.875
you'll probably be pretty satisfied with
the film, I think, most likely

00:07:53.935 --> 00:07:54.586
yep

00:07:55.156 --> 00:07:56.885
well that's really about it

00:07:57.885 --> 00:08:01.047
I'm driving right now, and I don't like
to take my eyes of the road

00:08:01.047 --> 00:08:04.403
So, when I get to the next red light,
I'll, I'll stop the recording

00:08:15.079 --> 00:08:17.034
Hopefully you're having a good day

00:08:17.824 --> 00:08:21.227
My day's really alright,
haven't done too much today

00:08:21.227 --> 00:08:22.502
Except go see that movie

00:08:23.852 --> 00:08:26.869
I guess I don't regret seeing it
I guess it was worth giving it a try

00:08:26.869 --> 00:08:28.585
And now I know for sure

00:08:29.055 --> 00:08:32.364
Probably done with live-action remakes,
y'know what I mean
