Disney Movies That Haven't Aged Well

Hello boy, welcome back to the build a bear workshop. A few weeks ago I made a video about High School Musical and Camp Rock and while browsing Disney Plus I realized how many

movies

I had deleted from my memory. It's so weird watching all these random

movies

. D comes from about 17 years ago and I suddenly felt a rush of nostalgia for something I hadn't thought about in years as a kid, all I did was watch Disney Channel and Nickelodeon, that was it, there was no YouTube back then . I had no books and my parents were very strict about what they let me watch on television.

I wasn't even allowed to watch Cartoon Network until I was 13. Don't ask me why because I don't know. I guess they were trying to do it. protect me from the harsh reality of the real world, but it didn't work. I still know all the bad words now like trash and SSS. I mean, I don't say that, but sometimes my friends do, but anyway, the Disney Channel thing. at least back then, I don't know if this is still true, it's just that they didn't play commercials, they had commercial breaks of course, but they used that time only to advertise other Disney shows, so even if there was a movie that I would just watch it I saw once.

I watched the trailer like 50 times while watching other Disney shows, so every line in the trailer would end up burned into my brain and to this day there's nothing I can do to get rid of them. baby and get ready to rock, it's really good, the other thing I realized over the last two weeks, while Amanda and I were taking turns pointing at the TV and saying, I remember that's sacred, some of these movies get old like milk and it's not just them. saying things in 2002 that would be problematic by today's standards, although there are a couple conflicting examples of that, but to me it's also just because of some of the actors in these movies, the perfect example of what I'm talking about is stuck in the suburbs .

So this was a Disney Channel movie about a pop star who stays in a small town and loses his cell phone, so his assistant has to spend the entire movie trying to get it back to him. I know it sounds silly when I say it like that, but don't worry, that's not the only reason I know Taran Killam for three things and three things only, Saturday Night Live, the Amanda Show, and this movie, everything I know. I've seen dozens of satirical sketches and commercial parodies, so it's a lot of fun to try to watch this movie that now looks like an 82-minute SNL sketch and try to take it seriously.

Think of all the actors to play this misunderstood teen pop star and heartthrob. He's Moody's point guy. It's very strange to see, especially now. I would really love to ask you about this movie if you were excited about it, if so I guess I should because I'm not going to get many other acting jobs or maybe you thought this is the direction it went. would start his career, he would start taking more acting roles like this, even though he didn't really want to, it would actually be a little ironic if he did because that's his character arc in the movie, he keeps doing all these things because he thinks he's supposed to. that he should, but deep down all he really wants to do is sing cheesy boy band music.

The best scene in the movie, hands down, is this little montage here that's such wonderful, horrible editing and then the abrupt cut that I counted, there's only eight different takes that you're using, but they keep putting them on top of each other. to make it look like there are hundreds, even just in the 3x3 grid they were already rejecting a shot. I always forget with most Disney Channel movies how minuscule the budgets were, you probably have this expectation. It looks like a feature film, but it's filmed on a TV budget, so looking back, some of it is just unwatchable.

Now you remember Tiger Crews. It's actually a pretty crazy idea for a movie. It takes place on September 11. They are all children of Navy sailors. who are like no, stupid Navy people, why are we on a ship and then 9/11 happens and they say, wow, actually, the military is an important and vital establishment, we should go to war, it's a pretty heavy concept for a Disney movie, many? Very serious moments, so it's a shame they filmed like 80% of it in front of a green screen because, my God, I think the crazy thing about this is that the entire movie has just one arc setting, all they needed was one. ship, but I guess why worry about that when you have a perfectly good one right here, another movie I was excited to see again was Now You See.

I don't know if you guys saw this. I feel like most people don't but I remember loving this movie as a kid but I couldn't remember what it was about so I decided to watch a couple of scenes last night and he's not as good as I thought. Puzzle against Max, no mom Max, maybe the ending will be good, good wizard. He never reveals the secrets of his tricks, okay, we don't have to talk about that magic, but I know, I know why they are here, they don't want to hear about outdated special effects, they try to see that offensive, we try, we can't. all Disney and I don't know anything about that, but there is a pretty long list of hearts to defend the decisions they have made over the years.

Peter Pan has a racist song. Dumbo has some racist crows and beauty and the beast. It's a movie about a girl who falls in love with the animal that kidnapped her and I know those movies are very old. Things were different in the '50s and '90s, but there's another movie that came out when I was 10 that hasn't

aged

. alright, Freaky Friday came out in 2003 and it's a remake of a remake of a film adaptation of a book. This movie was huge at the time, it was right during the peak of Lindsay Lohan's career, Chad Michael Murray's career, and it did a lot to reestablish it.

Jamie Lee Curtis not only as a comedy actress but also as a yogurt saleswoman for the most part, this is a pretty solid movie, it has some funny lines, it's probably Lindsay Lohan's best performance, but there's only one thing I forgot and that's how they switched bodies in the original Freaky Friday, they just made a wish out loud and then the special effects took off from there. I wish I could trade places with her for just a day in the 2018 version, they did this. I hate you, I hate your attitude. Craig, come back mom, I don't need to live large.

Just a side note. I had no idea this movie was a musical, so imagine my surprise when they started singing, but in the 2003 version the change occurs while they are arguing in a Chinese restaurant and the owner overhears them and gives them some magic fortune cookies. and then there's an earthquake and they wake up in each other's bodies what was she mumbling about in chinese she did something a weird asian buddhist a prominent film critic at the time called this a weird racist thing and yet the movie still went on to earn more one hundred and sixty million dollars.

I guess it just serves as an unfortunate reminder of how prominent Asian stereotypes were in American movies, even not that long ago, how normal it was to see these stereotypes exaggerated. characters that use super strong accents that the actors playing them didn't even have and in this case the writers really only use them as a plot device to justify the body switch. It's like we don't really know much about the Chinese so I can probably do magic, luckily we've come a long way since then in terms of representation in movies or at least we were making great progress until Little Italy came out in 2018 and set us back like Three decades, speaking of three decades ago, take a trip back to 1994 and talk about a very strange movie called Blank Check.

It's not so much that this movie hasn't

aged

well

, but more that it probably should never have been made in the first place. This movie takes place in a world where money is the only thing that can make you happy, what do you want for your birthday mom, so today you will have fun? Okay, I guess I don't have any money and if you're poor, all the other kids will. make it fun for them, like when Preston goes to an amusement park with his friends, his dad only gives him a measly 6 dollars, so he can't afford to go on any of the cool rides with them, he has to go to fun. -He spins around while they point at him and laugh at him and things continue to suck for Preston until an evil villain runs over his bike and then gives him a blank check, but he doesn't give it to his father, he just writes a million of dollars. and then he takes it to the bank and cashes it on the spot.

Now what Preston hates more than anything in the world is the fact that he lives at home with his family and wants to have his own house, so he uses some kind of computer program that he calls. A real estate agent who is about to sell this mansion to someone for one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, starts bidding on the guy and eventually buys it for three hundred thousand dollars. If you're curious, this is a real house that actually exists on realtor.com estimated to be worth $4.1 million. He got it for 300 grand, but you can't forget about inflation, it's been about 25 years, so if that makes sense, the funniest part of this transaction is not just that he bought it for three hundred thousand dollars, it's the fact. that he's just using a shady computer voice on the phone and the homeowners are like, Yeah, we'll take that, I don't need to know this person.

I do not do it. I need to know his name, we'll accept the offer from the mysterious voice of the robot, then he realizes that he can't use his real name to buy the house, so he has to come up with an alter ego: What will a big Macintosh be? Because he saw the word Macintosh, but again I know this all sounds pretty normal so far for a kids movie, but this is where one of the things on Preston's wish list comes up, besides the house he just bought for a fraction of the market value, it is a bride as a fairly easy task. for someone with a million dollars in cash just buy a nice gift for a cute girl your age or plan a nice romantic dinner for a cute girl your age or you could just fall in love with a grown woman and then that will be the love interest throughout the entire movie yes, it seems like a good decision.

See you next time. I hope it's not in a million years so they have the date later. Wow, what's the shortest guy he's ever dated? Hmm, I'm not really sure it's the younger ones and them. We really get along

well

with mr. Macintosh is very interested yes, oh, let's take the stuff outside, maybe we'll run through a fountain together, okay, it's a good time, me too, good night, Preston, good night, oh, thank God, for a moment I thought they were going to kiss, it's good that they did. No because that would be strange, whereas the evil villain who gave him 1 million dollars one time to get the million dollars back because he didn't really want to give him 1 million dollars thought it would be like 50 dollars, so when he saw the kid walks on a bike, a chase ensues, interesting choice of words, you might wonder how an eight year old can get away with living in another mansion all the time and suddenly have a ton of expensive things like, for example, what do your parents believe? it goes well this is what he tells them he tells them that he got a job they think that he is working for a mysterious man named mr.

Macintosh, which we actually know is actually pressed, so they're fine, great, I'm glad you spend all day at the house of a man we've never met while he gives you a bunch of expensive stuff, no red flags. Served, these are the best parents in the world, right? Now it's time for that party Preston wants to throw for the sole purpose of having something to invite the woman to, but would you watch this? He ran out of money, he spent 1 million dollars. all that and anyway it's been three days, the FBI shows up and arrests all the bad guys and now that he has no money left, Preston pretty much goes back to a normal life, so I guess he wasn't that weird. from a movie I was probably exaggerating wait what are you doing that means our date just because of your work well it started like this what's going on there hey you know I wouldn't have changed that night for anything so when can I see Lucas?

Why don't you call me and tell me about 10 years 5-7 650? Ok, it's a date. She couldn't just kiss him on the cheek or give him a high five. Why did they put this on Disney Plus? Why not? They try to suppress this forever, lock it in a vault and never talk about it again. When I give a blank check, I sign a movie. I think it actually aged well. Smart House came out in 1999 and, as Nicky Jakey said in his video. about dee coms it's like watching an episode of Black Mirror I feel like that movie is the reason I'm so against buying a house like Alexa or Google if your house can think for itself and make decisions and has a robotic arm, It's going to excite you, I don't make the rules,that's just what happens, in fact, can you turn up the video for a second, just a little bit perfect?

Alexa self destruct, sorry I had to do it, trust me guys you don't need a device in your own home listening to you at all times just so we can turn around and sell that information wait no I just got an ad from anal beads, what are the chances I was texting my wife about that anyway? Saying you're mine, well it's been a long day so far guys, what do you think? We cleanse our palates with good old-fashioned brand treatment. Hello, I'll give you two hours to try to guess what brand I'm about to announce. man, my shirt gave it away, look, I get it, you know all about how a virtual private network masks your IP address and encrypts your online data, making the Internet close to Ellison and even your Internet Service Provider cannot collect your private information. and then turn around and sell it so I don't bore you telling you all that again.

I promise I won't say any of that. I know you're just upset because you live in Canada and can't see the John Oliver clip. I posted it on Twitter because for some reason it's blocked. in your country i'm just saying if you had expressvpn all you have to do is click this button and then change your location to texas or something i don't care and like that even canadians can watch a british person speak about the United States. ExpressVPN has server locations in 94 different countries, literally opening your Internet to an entire world full of possibilities. I use this feature all the time to watch shows as friends on Netflix or when there was basketball I used it to change my location so I could watch local games that were blocked.
