Honestly, I still like the movie just no longer into the main ship anymore. The main thing that I am still into is the friendship and the music. Drew and Selena didn't have to portray a relationship for this movie so it could be a better one.
PINKIE GAL that’s not the problem honestly 10 year gap isn’t so dramatic if you’re 20 and your husband/boyfriend 30 idk, but if your underage it’s a different story...
All of the “teens” in the movie were between 22-31 years of age. Selena was the only one who was actually a teenager. One of the step sisters was 31...
I mean I get why she was creeped out but tbh that’s the acting world for you. So many people who are way older play high school students, and as long as within the story they are around the same age it’s kinda ok with me, and the kiss is literally something that actors have to do anyway. I’m not saying they should have casted a 26 yr old to kiss a 15 yr old, but I’m just saying I’m not surprised...
@@marsmontufar6319 wym ONLY ten years???? it would be ok if they were both adults but selena was a whole minor. yeah they're acting but it's still creepy as fuck
Marcela Montufar addressing your first point, I think there’s a significant difference between a 30 and 40 year old(as they are full grown adults) and a 15 and 25 year old
It's called inconsistent casting and writing, showing how badly done the film was in general, without people overreacting about the actors not playing roles of characters who are their ages, regardless of voice actors often playing characters 10+ years younger than them!

From what I am told when you sign with Disney, they typically sign people for 7 years and essentially have to do anything the say in that time period. Drew Seeley was signed to the singing voice for Troy HSM. But, they didn't wind up using him for the sequels so I think they just had to put him somewhere.
Like people wouldn't still have issues with underage dating? No matter what, when doing a romance film you'll get backlash and it's why they're rarely done or why they use fanfics to reduce the amount of backlash.
As a 26 year old I can’t even imagine how he could have been comfortable filming this movie. Like bro she’s 15 you’re flirting with 30 you should be eyeing up a 401K.
It's a Disney movie. He's been tied to Disney like that for years. He's still doing voice work - he was even doing vocals for King Ben of Descendants... So I think... In those days it was the bag and now it's the contract.
I think it's really wrong that her parents consented to their kissing and being physically close in the movie (and that it was socially accepted and technically still is). I feel her having an intimate relationship with a guy that much older than her (even if its just on film) and being underage just can't be mentally healthy and i feel sad that nobody in her life protected her from this.
Protected her from acting? You do realize the point of acting is being a different person, right? It's why so many movies have actors being different ages, so your logic here is pretty flawed not to mention how your implications are literally making this situation into something it's not.
@@michaelfireheart8300 I think it's just about the implications outside of this movie. Lots of very young actresses get exploited. This movie definitely wasn't that bad since they played a very light romantic relationship etc and i do agree it's also unhealthy to victimize Selena and claim she needed "protection". However, many young actresses were thrown into over sexualized situations and weren't protected and it negatively impacted them. But also being a different person or not doesn't change the real gap between them. Two 20 year olds playing 16 year olds and kissing is very different than a 15 year old and 26 year old playing 16 year olds and kissing etc.
a good example is starstruck danielle campbell was 15 years old só disney didn’t put any kiss scene also charlie from lemonade mouth was supposed to date mo, but the actor was 13 and they decided to not get them together
@@michaelfireheart8300 Its weird that a 26 y/o man was allowed to have a relationship with a 15/16 y/o old girl. It doesn't really matter if it was a movie or not. It's just the acting age difference was weird and its mentally dangerous for kids to kiss older people. Its like being groomed.
Trin went from absolutely adoring everything in this movie to bringing up the age gap at every possible moment the second she learned about it. And that’s on being an absolute queen
It’s funny how when you are like 8 you kinda believe teenagers are adults and cannot decipher the ages just young and old but now that we’re of age the difference is so obvious not just in looks but in mindsets too. Selena’s voice is so high 😭😭
Hahaha heater being a thing is so funny because I listent to this song like 5 months ago and I loved it but couldend ever imagine it would be a trend hehehe
Fun fact: they filmed this movie at my school (well the majority of the school scenes). We were literally always just around them while they were filming loll. Except for the two main dance scenes (where she's in the red dress and the ending competition thingy). Selena was actually so nice, and she was like the one who stayed in the hallways to take pictures with us, Drew Seeley and Marcus Paulk did too but they didn't stay around as long as Selena!
I love how trin was like "the best movie in cinematic history" and then she realized the actors have 10 years age gap and she was like "this sucks" 😂 Her reactions are hilarious 😂😂
sadly it isn't even that surprising since hollywood has a pattern with age gaps with often the woman - or in this case girl - being much younger (i say often bc it's hollywood and they fuck over any young actor no matter the gender)
As a 24 yr old I can say that if I was an actor I would NEVER take on a role with someone that young, even back in the day it was weird but this movie isn’t super old so it did not age well
Baaah, for that matter, the only realistic Cinderella movie was the one with Brandy : first prince of all time not being wandering around without his glasses put on and then be able to recognize her instantly 😂
It’s Cinderella lol. In the real Cinderella he can’t recognize her bc she changes from a fancy dress to a peasant dress,.. even though nothing was covering her face and she didn’t change her hair or voice LOL. I’d say this is a step up. At least she had a half a mask on. 😹😹
I think it’s also always weird when a relationship starts from a position of one character being a big fan of the other bc there’s that power dynamic. Which is, again, so much worse bc he’s older and she’s a literal teenager
By that logic famous people would either date noone or Hollywood would become full of incest. Power dynamics exist in every relationship, it all about having a balance. Power dynamics only really become a problem when the scales are tipping too far in one direction.
He sucks in some stuff but he’s pretty great in some stuff like The Social Network! Also, Trin should check Out a more range of movies like The Social Network
No bc He did Britney Spears dirty by putting her in his music video causing so much media turmoil for her when she chose to be the bigger person not putting him on blast. He literally used her to start his solo career and become “Justin Timberlake”
I think Mary was like 17 - because she’s a senior and applying to a dance college. And he’s like 19 or 20. I think he was meant to be like a child star, so in the video where Mary was young, like 10/11 and he was like 13/14. Like a Justin Bieber type situation lol. But the age difference with the actors is most definitely odd.
I completely agree and wish shed acknowledged this tbh cuz yes the difference with the actors is creepy but i dont think it ruins the entire movie because the characters are not the age of the actors
It doesn't matter what it was supposed to be in the movie, every other actor was 20+ they should've just casted an older main character or aged everyone down.
I agree that is what I thought then, but in that teen beat she was holding up as a child he looks exactly how he looks now. So, the movie failed on that part because that changed my perspective, they could have just cast a child for the magazine.
@@henriettalopez38 she wasnt a lead. they probably wanted someone young for the lead but didnt care as mucg aboyt secondary characters. it does make sense bc different parts have different requirements.
Ugh, why? Just to be sure (cos of this disturbing pattern) I checked the ages of Lucy Hale and Freddie Stroma during A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song. Thankfully the ages aren't weird at all, she was 22 and he was 24. I mean, still nowhere near how old the characters were, but at least there's no big age gap.
@Dessy Vibez Do the math? Ok. Hillary Duff was born 28 September 1987. Chad Murray was born 24 August 1981. According to IMDb 'A Cinderella Story ' filming began in June 2003, just before either birthday meaning just before she turned 16 (2003 - 1987 = 16), so she was 15. It was just before his (2003 - 1981 = 22) 22nd birthday, so he was 21. I don't know why you say 'girl why lie they was around the same age' then later admit they're 6 years apart by saying their current ages, but anyway.
Michael Fireheart yea but a 15 year old have a kiss scene and sexually scenes with a 26 year old. The girl wasn’t even legal to make that decision. It’s ok is she was 18 but a minor that’s called being a pedo
Things like that are so creepy When I was 15 I was going down a river in a kayak and the instructor who was around 25 asked me out and I was so creeped out, it made me incredible uncomfortable. It's not like he was a bad dude, he asked me out pretty nice, he saw I was uncomfortable, apologized and left me alone the rest of the trip but there was no way he didn't know I was underage (I looked young and was there with my parents and other friends my age) and yet he did it, it ruined my day, if it was someone my age I would've been so flattered but because he wasn't it felt very violent and I wish he never did it, I hated it. I don't understand how anyone would think that's okay
Well that feels like an overreaction just because he asked you out, sure he wasn't around your age, but he said sorry and besides, just be happy he didn't just use you before ending your life as you were in a place he could've easily done that...
I’m so sorry that happened to you! I’ve had college guys hit on me before, when I was 14 :/ It’s so uncomfortable. Even when it’s a genuine mistake and they didn’t know, it still super uncomfortable and it puts you on edge.
@@michaelfireheart8300 It’s not an overreaction at all. She had no way of knowing he wasn’t going to push the issue (or use his age/position to pressure her into something). A mid-20s adult hitting on a minor puts the minor in an incredibly uncomfortable situation and often makes them feel very unsafe. It’s good that he apologized and avoided her after - he gets congratulations for not being a terrible person, I guess - but he shouldn’t have flirted with a minor in the first place.
@@michaelfireheart8300 you clearly understand the stakes seeing as you’ve spelled out what could have happened to op. You’ve perfectly illustrated why her reaction was not an overreaction. An older man hitting on you in a secluded place is scary as hell. If a guy wants to date, I assume they want to have sex. If an adult man wants to date a minor I assume they want to have sex with them. That is a crime. If that man is willing to commit that crime, what other crimes is he willing to commit? Rape? Murder?
@@michaelfireheart8300 She was underage bro. Like...no, that's not something an adult should do at all. Especially an instructor who (probably) gets to be around kids often. And she was *alone* with him. That's a pretty scary situation.
After finishing this... My childhood - rightfully destroyed... "He was 26 and she was 15..." "He wasn't the Justin Timberlake he was trying to be..." "stop doing that you are 15 years old... Stop looking at her like that you are 26!"
I don't mind age gaps when both parties are consenting adults, but 26 and 15 is gross. Selena has a baby face still in this too! Yeesh. I used to like this movie too haha but... I'm 30 now and I swear people under 21 look so young to me! The idea of dating someone in their teens *shudder*
@@oliviarogers3559 but it's not ok to normalize a literal child kissing a grown man, even if they are acting. They should have picked a younger lead male or an older lead female. It's not ok
i'm around the same age as trin, so I really like to see a perspective that leans more towards appreciation rather than just roasting. Except for that age difference, no one should appreciate that.
@@liampatrick3110 I wouldn't really say it was that much less sexual, especially that ending scene. Also "Come on officer,I only got a little sexual with that underage girl" would hold up in a court of law.
Truthfully I think they were trying to pass the character off as like 17-18(*sings* brooding hot 25 year old teenager) . Which obviously doesn't change the creep factor cuz eww they kissed
Im 15 and i would be very uncomfortable if i got to play in a movie with a co star who were ten years older than me who was playing the main love interest
Hilary duff was 15 years old in the original Cinderella story! Chad Michael Murray was 22... according to the director, the first day they met, they were really nervous and shy.. so to “get them more comfortable, he locked them in a room and told them to make out until they are tired of it”. Words he said from his own mouth... it’s honestly scary how much this shit happens and no one ever thinks anything is wrong with it... like what the fuck...
It was objectively better overall. The storytelling was nice, good dialogue and characters. and it has a slice of life rustic feel while still being humorous.
I think it would only be natural for you to do a commentary on "Monte Carlo". It holds a real special place in my heart, love the soundtrack/score so much. Plus Selena Gomez, Leighton Meester and Cory Monteith.
@@idk-uv7mt I have to agree with @emmylia. Actors are people. And having a 15 girl kiss a 22 year old man is gross. Regardless of whether they are actors or not
12:37 me when I found out Scarlett Johansson was 17 when filming Lost in Translation - her love interest is Bill Murray btw - I had to watch that film for multipleeee film classes R.I.P. me and one of my super old guy profs was wayyyyy too into the dynamic and I wanted to dieeeee
If you're uncomfortable with the age gap in this movie, don't look up the movie Pretty Baby... or anything Brooke Shields was forced to do as a child... or do, and ruin your life.
bruh, searched it up and first things that came up was "In 1978, when she was 12 years old, Shields played a child prostitute in the controversial film Pretty Baby. Eileen Ford said "she looks like an adult and thinks like one." NOPE NOPE NOPE I NOPED OUT OF THERE SO FAST!!
She was also in Playboy in her teens as well 🤢 I am a big fan of Brooke Shields, shes an amazing woman and actress but damn if she wasnt taken advantage of as a child
right jesus christ plus the fact that this was aimed for pre teens most likely ???? so we see that at a young age and dont realize that theres an underlying problem of their age gap and just OUF y r they making it seem so 'normal'?????!?
@@cutabunny504 Oh wow yeah they're actually almost 6 years apart. I never noticed bc he had a young looking face lol. I think in that movie they also played people of the same age. That is a little weird but not nearly as bad especially if they didn't even kiss
@@anaisngombo9378 Yes she is! However, when casting and auditions for the show began (turn of 2018-19) she was underage. When filming began she would've been 18 barely. The male protagonist was in his late 20's throughout this. Chemistry testing, table reads, costume rehearsals - all throughout that major age difference did not strike the producers as odd. She may be 19 now, but the whole production was okay at the time when the project began till now for that dynamic to exist. I just find that strange.
the sexual tension between Drew Seeley and that mirror is unmatched
I strive to have that level of self-love in my life

PINKIE GAL yeah but your mom maybe wasn’t 15 when your dad dated her right? And your dad wasn’t a man almost at his thirties dating a child/ teen.

Gracious Rosebud Me too! Love her!
Lucky!
Uh-oh, they let Drew Seeley in a high school? 😜
i love her
Plot twist: joey was feeling himself in the mirror, not selena.
Bahahahaha ☠️
no one can convince me that he wasn’t just feeing himself in that scene
Katie W has
Hahahah go watch dylan is in troubles video on this movie
“You SHOULD be nervous, the police are on their way.” 🤣 has me rolling
I love how trin was like "the best movie in cinematic history" and then she realized the actors have 10 years age gap and she was like "this sucks" 😂 Her reactions are hilarious 😂😂
The age gap is so weird to me like they could not hire a younger actor
Definitely
I think she was 16 but at least they only kissed and it wasn't nothing more
sadly it isn't even that surprising since hollywood has a pattern with age gaps with often the woman - or in this case girl - being much younger (i say often bc it's hollywood and they fuck over any young actor no matter the gender)
That's not the only case in Disney movie, it's the same in starstruck I think
@@irisleli5151 Danielle was 15 and Sterling Knight was 21
As a 24 yr old I can say that if I was an actor I would NEVER take on a role with someone that young, even back in the day it was weird but this movie isn’t super old so it did not age well
I was always so upset that Joey couldn’t recognize Selena’s character from her hair, voice, or height.
Like in the actual Cinderella.
Cinderella would make so much more sense if the dude was blind
Baaah, for that matter, the only realistic Cinderella movie was the one with Brandy : first prince of all time not being wandering around without his glasses put on and then be able to recognize her instantly 😂
@@Salhy22 oh god, I love the Brandy one
It’s Cinderella lol.
In the real Cinderella he can’t recognize her bc she changes from a fancy dress to a peasant dress,.. even though nothing was covering her face and she didn’t change her hair or voice LOL. I’d say this is a step up. At least she had a half a mask on. 😹😹
the way trin just ruined one of her favorite movies so fast I-
i know we hate joey's ex but she was doing mirror dance in high heels
if you see them close-up they look more like character shoes than high heels and character shoes are pretty easy to dance in

Trin at the beginning of the video: omg best movie ever such nostalgia many wow
Trin halfway through: WHY ARE YOU SO OLD
“But do we even like the real Justin Timberlake either.” Sis, out here askin the real questions. 💅🏻
Joey: *blinks*
Trin: You're so old 😤
was she wrong tho
Amara Mumphord no she wasn’t 😭
Yeah 26. I can't imagine being that old am I right guys hehe...😅
LMAO
trin after she found out about joey's age: i am *very uncomfortable* with the energy in the studio
I think it’s also always weird when a relationship starts from a position of one character being a big fan of the other bc there’s that power dynamic. Which is, again, so much worse bc he’s older and she’s a literal teenager
By that logic famous people would either date noone or Hollywood would become full of incest. Power dynamics exist in every relationship, it all about having a balance. Power dynamics only really become a problem when the scales are tipping too far in one direction.
@@DarkPulsaterLiteGear nah this is diff it seems like a power dynamic but a predatory and groomy one
@@DarkPulsaterLiteGear
Maybe power dynamics aren't a problem but predators are.
Can we all just frikin appreciate how drop dead gorgeous and stunning Trin is she’s so beautiful I- I CAN’T-
“but do we even like justin timberlake?” 😭
He sucks in some stuff but he’s pretty great in some stuff like The Social Network! Also, Trin should check Out a more range of movies like The Social Network
He’s an antivaxxer, so... 🥴
No bc He did Britney Spears dirty by putting her in his music video causing so much media turmoil for her when she chose to be the bigger person not putting him on blast. He literally used her to start his solo career and become “Justin Timberlake”
@@Beep974 also what he did to Janet Jackson?
moral of the story, he’s trash and severely overrated 😗
A 15 year old dating a 26 year old is the same age gap as an 7 year old dating a 18 year old. Let that sink in.
They're both weird and wrong, but I think it goes without saying that the 7 & 18 year old thing is a whole nother level of wtf.
"Japan was cool, it was like a Bruce Lee movie, but with no subtitles."

I am HOWLING.
They're talking about Japanese, you say 'howling', and now I'm thinking of Howling by FlowxGranrodeo (op4 from SDS), such a good song 😊
Jo I started thinking about Miyazaki’s film Howl’s Moving Castle 🤣🤣
Piper Lee SAME 😭😭😭
Wow never caught that till now lolol
I think Mary was like 17 - because she’s a senior and applying to a dance college. And he’s like 19 or 20. I think he was meant to be like a child star, so in the video where Mary was young, like 10/11 and he was like 13/14. Like a Justin Bieber type situation lol. But the age difference with the actors is most definitely odd.
Keiryn Flowers yea that’s how I least interpreted it
I completely agree and wish shed acknowledged this tbh cuz yes the difference with the actors is creepy but i dont think it ruins the entire movie because the characters are not the age of the actors
It doesn't matter what it was supposed to be in the movie, every other actor was 20+ they should've just casted an older main character or aged everyone down.
@@muna4213 When all they did was a kiss? Doesn't seem worth it
I agree that is what I thought then, but in that teen beat she was holding up as a child he looks exactly how he looks now. So, the movie failed on that part because that changed my perspective, they could have just cast a child for the magazine.
"he's just so old"
Me a 26 year old: 🤶🏻
Mostly when she says that she means that he’s old for her cause she was 15 at the time they filmed the movie.
He’s literally 11 years older than her so like... I guess she just means that he was too old for her
Me 25 y.o 😂😂😂😂
Well compared to Selena at that time. 26 is young but that was creepy...
She meant so old compared to Selena who was 15
selena in this was literally everything i wanted to be as a kid. still is honestly.

@@henriettalopez38 yeah and she didnt play troy
TheBookGoddess she was 26 and played a high schooler, so saying that drew didn’t get the part of Troy because of his age makes no sense.
@@henriettalopez38 she wasnt a lead. they probably wanted someone young for the lead but didnt care as mucg aboyt secondary characters. it does make sense bc different parts have different requirements.
@Dessy Vibez no they weren't lol
So, I got curious and looked up the ages of Hilary Duff and Chad Murray when they filmed “A Cinderella story” and she was 15 and he was 22.......
..... eeeeeeeeewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
WTF WHY IS MY CHILDHOOD A LIE
Ugh, why? Just to be sure (cos of this disturbing pattern) I checked the ages of Lucy Hale and Freddie Stroma during A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song. Thankfully the ages aren't weird at all, she was 22 and he was 24. I mean, still nowhere near how old the characters were, but at least there's no big age gap.
Sweetly, thankfully no weird age gap there. So crazy to me how big the gaps can be sometimes for movies we watched as kids.
@Dessy Vibez Do the math? Ok. Hillary Duff was born 28 September 1987. Chad Murray was born 24 August 1981. According to IMDb 'A Cinderella Story ' filming began in June 2003, just before either birthday meaning just before she turned 16 (2003 - 1987 = 16), so she was 15. It was just before his (2003 - 1981 = 22) 22nd birthday, so he was 21.
I don't know why you say 'girl why lie they was around the same age' then later admit they're 6 years apart by saying their current ages, but anyway.
The Age gap has ruined the whole movie and more like which other movies have massive age gaps and I didn’t know of
They're playing characters who are different ages, that's the point of acting!
Michael Fireheart yea but a 15 year old have a kiss scene and sexually scenes with a 26 year old. The girl wasn’t even legal to make that decision. It’s ok is she was 18 but a minor that’s called being a pedo
IreneTheKat thanks that’s what I meant
Let it shine
Oh and Cinderella story with hilary duff
Things like that are so creepy
When I was 15 I was going down a river in a kayak and the instructor who was around 25 asked me out and I was so creeped out, it made me incredible uncomfortable. It's not like he was a bad dude, he asked me out pretty nice, he saw I was uncomfortable, apologized and left me alone the rest of the trip but there was no way he didn't know I was underage (I looked young and was there with my parents and other friends my age) and yet he did it, it ruined my day, if it was someone my age I would've been so flattered but because he wasn't it felt very violent and I wish he never did it, I hated it.
I don't understand how anyone would think that's okay
Well that feels like an overreaction just because he asked you out, sure he wasn't around your age, but he said sorry and besides, just be happy he didn't just use you before ending your life as you were in a place he could've easily done that...
I’m so sorry that happened to you! I’ve had college guys hit on me before, when I was 14 :/ It’s so uncomfortable. Even when it’s a genuine mistake and they didn’t know, it still super uncomfortable and it puts you on edge.
@@michaelfireheart8300 It’s not an overreaction at all. She had no way of knowing he wasn’t going to push the issue (or use his age/position to pressure her into something). A mid-20s adult hitting on a minor puts the minor in an incredibly uncomfortable situation and often makes them feel very unsafe. It’s good that he apologized and avoided her after - he gets congratulations for not being a terrible person, I guess - but he shouldn’t have flirted with a minor in the first place.
@@michaelfireheart8300 you clearly understand the stakes seeing as you’ve spelled out what could have happened to op. You’ve perfectly illustrated why her reaction was not an overreaction. An older man hitting on you in a secluded place is scary as hell. If a guy wants to date, I assume they want to have sex. If an adult man wants to date a minor I assume they want to have sex with them. That is a crime. If that man is willing to commit that crime, what other crimes is he willing to commit? Rape? Murder?
@@michaelfireheart8300 She was underage bro. Like...no, that's not something an adult should do at all. Especially an instructor who (probably) gets to be around kids often. And she was *alone* with him. That's a pretty scary situation.
After finishing this... My childhood - rightfully destroyed...
"He was 26 and she was 15..."
"He wasn't the Justin Timberlake he was trying to be..."

Selena has a baby face either way so…
okay but like why did she kinda snap when she sang “I can only be on person that’s Joey” or is that just me?
yes! and her pitch was on point too
i'm around the same age as trin, so I really like to see a perspective that leans more towards appreciation rather than just roasting.
Except for that age difference, no one should appreciate that.
It wasn't just this movie though. In 'Cinderella Story' while Hillary Duff was 15, Chad Michael Murray was 22 during filming.
Tbft, I don't recall the bond between the two leads ever being as SEXUAL is it (clearly) is THIS film.
@@liampatrick3110 I wouldn't really say it was that much less sexual, especially that ending scene. Also "Come on officer,I only got a little sexual with that underage girl" would hold up in a court of law.

no one:
trin during the whole video: THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE PERSON THATS JOEY
Truthfully I think they were trying to pass the character off as like 17-18(*sings* brooding hot 25 year old teenager) . Which obviously doesn't change the creep factor cuz eww they kissed

“You should be nervous because the police are on their way”
Hilary duff was 15 years old in the original Cinderella story! Chad Michael Murray was 22... according to the director, the first day they met, they were really nervous and shy.. so to “get them more comfortable, he locked them in a room and told them to make out until they are tired of it”. Words he said from his own mouth... it’s honestly scary how much this shit happens and no one ever thinks anything is wrong with it... like what the fuck...

The male protagonist was in his late 20's throughout this. Chemistry testing, table reads, costume rehearsals - all throughout that major age difference did not strike the producers as odd. She may be 19 now, but the whole production was okay at the time when the project began till now for that dynamic to exist. I just find that strange.
