Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was the first movie I remember watching as a kid that represented the girl wearing glasses as the "prettier" version of her, and as a little girl wearing glasses, that really meant a whole lot to me. I still remember that striking a chord with me as a kid.
I think glasses are adorable and part of me thinks I'll be fine when my eyes inevitably stop working (needing glasses runs in the family) because I just think wearing glasses would be an interesting new look for me
Reminder that before Spiderverse, Surf's Up was the only Sony Animated movie to have an Oscar nomination, this movie really surfed so Spiderverse could swing.
One extra detail that probably needs mentioning, in Mitchells vs the machines, Katie’s motivations are told through narration, where Rick’s motivations aren’t even told to us, we’re shown them through the videotapes we see of him and Katie. It’s a really subtle contrast that I didn’t even pick up on until my 3rd viewing!
One thing I just noticed, is that mirrors their worldview thing. Katie is explained using natural human contact, while Rick is explained using virtual media.
All the Hotel Transylvania movies are ao well animated on a technical level, it's been compared to "a team of automobile experts tasked with making a clown car" and I think that's pretty accurate
Seriously, the technicals behind how they animated it is amazing. They edited the model's meshes per frame to mimic the stylized squash and stretch of 2D, and it looks beautiful. If only the writing was on the same level
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was my entire childhood. I loved the premise and the first cast and everything. It’s just one of those films that was perfect (at least to 7 year old me).

@SyedIhsaan I disagree actually. ITSV is a complete experience, whereas ATSV ended on a pretty brutal cliffhanger that IMO weakens the story a smidge. Still phenomenal though.
It just goes to show how right and overhated AniMat was for bashing (pre-2019) Sony Pictures Animation to the ground. Sure, before July 2018 (which was only a half-year before Into the Spider-verse came and finally saved the studio big time), AniMat was probably too harsh on the animation studio (to the point of FINALLY WISHING DEATH UPON THEM IN HIS EMOJI MOVIE REVIEW!!!!), but then again, at the end of the day, it’s great to see that he has the intelligence to bash Sony Animation every time it makes a film like all their direct to DVD sequels (Scared Silly being the only one of the four I don’t consider the worst of the worst. Bad? Sure. But terrible? Well, at least they actually tried to feel more like a genuine sequel to Open Season 1), Hotel Transylvania 3 and their trilogy of live-action remakes of the 2010s (The Smurfs 1 & 2 and especially Peter Rabbit 1. I haven’t seen Peter Rabbit 2, and I don’t think I want to…), which they made most of.
The commercials should’ve been like, “hey, we know this is gonna be a sh!t movie but it’s just a fundraiser for this movie that will blow you away. So please watch the M E H movie so we can make the film of the decade. Thanks!”
my friend and i had to watch it (because we were hanging out and going to see a movie, but her little brother was there so we had to see something that would entertain him),,, so now i don't feel as bad about watching it.
I have never, EVER, heard Schaff be that livid in all the years of watching his content, and he unleases it only when talking about Surf's Up 2. It kinda startled me when I first saw it.
2:02 I wish I could fully express how magical the intro to this segment is. The iconic "Disappointment in The Game of Life!" jingle, then nothing. Just darkness. Silence. The poster for the commercial slowly fades in and zooms out. James Phyrillas, in a tranquil fury, speaks a dread-inducing sentence that perfectly prepares the viewer to experience the ensuing manifestation of unadulterated Hell. "To be perfectly honest, it feels really unfair to rank Surf's Up 2: WaveMania as a part of this list for one simple fact: it. is not. a movie." Phenomenal.
@@OmarFW no they need to learn to stop butting in with their crap ideas. So many times especially with the Raimi and Webb spider man movies they were ruined because they didn’t let the creator just make a movie. They kept saying add this in, do this or we want this. It finally looks like they’ve learned their lesson though.
I love how unique all of the animation styles are. Cloudy, Spiderverse, Mitchells, even emoji movie. They're all so damn distinct and I really like the diversity
You can't tell me that if you put Mitchells next to Hotel Transylvania next to Arthur Christmas (best movie all time should have won an Oscar for best picture in history) they're very different
@@HummusIsHome well those are fine examples (hotel transylvania whatever) but you can't tell me that animation is a redeeming quality of a lot of these movies
@@randomcat5262 good dinosaur had a little to much chibi-toy animation, cars 3 had classical disney animation with good quality but it was extremely boring
"I genuinely want to know why the people who made this movie thought a donkey and his annoying bird friend were more interesting protagonists than the parents of Jesus Christ" is legitimately my favorite line from any Schaffrilas video. It sounds so f*cking funny out of context and I quote it all the time for no reason at all other than the fact that I just want to say it
I think my favourite part about Wish Dragon is how the story isn't centered around romance but rather a boy trying to reuinite with a childhood friend after they had to split up because her family had to move. Its a lot more compelling to root for the two of them when the reasoning is "This person was an important part of my childhood and I want us to have a close friendship again after losing it" rather than your typical "I really like pretty lady and want us to be together".
Even though there are still many hints throughout the movie that the 2 of them are developing feeling for each other, and it kinda lets you assume the close friendship continues to grow until it turns into a romantic relationship later on.
@@Robalexe That's perfectly fine, because there's an actual REASON there for them to have feelings for each other, rather than just "I just met pretty lady and she did nice things and is nice and I love her now."
One thing I really like about Sonys animation is that it tends to be visually quite distinct, the characters often have this zany energy to them that you normally only find in 2d-cartoons.
The repeated use of “Disappointment in the game of life” works so well because of how it’s previously used in other videos. By the third time I heard it, I was actually starting to tear up from laughter.
@zoorockf1 lmao, those are perfect comparisons and you are very correct. If someone were to film a literal dumpster fire, it wouldn't compare to how much of a dumpster fire Surfs up 2 is.
Hotel Transylvania may not be a great film story-wise, but I absolutely adore its rubberhose-style, energetic animation. I honestly think the animation makes the experience of watching it that much better.
Yeah, never was a big fan of those movies themselves, but I gave it a lot of points for doing something new in an industry that had gotten in a rut animation-wise. That's not to say that movies like Encanto, Moana, etc aren't beautifully animated, but Sony's willingness to try new things and succeed hopefully opens doors for Disney to do something a little less conventional and safe seeing how much money a lot of the Sony ones made.
27:45 Fun Fact: The funni actually exists because in other countries, Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation is given a less generic title. In which it's called Hotel Transylvania 3: A Monster Vacation. If you ask me "A Monster Vacation" sounds a lot better then "Summer Vacation".
I think Cloudy realy showed Sony's true potential that was hiding, and after the emoji movie I think they decided to go for quality over cash grabs, which seems to have really worked out with them. Honestly, I'm getting more and more hyped for each of their releases, they're up there with Pixar in my eyes. They're so easily on their way to being one of the best studios alongside Dreamworks and Pixar.
in a way the emoji movie doesn't seem to be a complete waste. sony's been doing pretty good since then. so i wonder if they'd still be making good movies today if they never learned that lesson.
My personal theory is that Surfs Up 2 takes place in an alternate reality, where the protagonist was inspired by Penguin John Cena instead of Z, so he had completely different morals and alternate events played out.
For me I would say Surf’s Up is at the top of what Sony has ever made from one scene. The scene where they ride waves and the voice overs of surfers talking about the feeling of being in a tube brings me to tears every time. No other movie has ever done this to me about a thing I don’t know or care much about. Yet it makes me feel like surfing is the only important thing in the world.
i just watched it today after years of thinking about how dumb i thought it was as a kid. my dad loves surfs up and i knew that going into it but was blown away by how much of it's charm i had forgotten about. holy fuck it's amazing. its beautiful and surprisingly hilarious. the reality documentary works really makes it shine. also almost none of the movie feels like filler, they use the time wisely and don't drag on past it's due time. the scene of big z and cody carving the surfboard is something I've been quoting for years because of my dad's love for the scene but only remembered today :)
That scene where they describe riding in the tube is phenomenal. My dad used to surf when he was younger and he's told me that every which way they describe it is exactly that, you can't describe that feeling. You can only feel it and only so many skilled people can ever experience that. The only other scene that I think even comes close is at the end of the movie when Cody is riding in the tube himself while "You Get What You Give" is playing. The sheer glee I get from that scene is probably enough to power a city. I've watched this movie way back before I could even remember, and it's always held a special place in my heart for being a comfort movie and one I can connect to my dad with. And that music they play will always give me goosebumps and make me so happy in a way that only Ghibli movies have achieved for me. I will sing the praises of this movie til the day I die.
Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs in Israel is actually called “Rain of Falafel”. It was probably changed for marketing reasons since meatballs aren’t very popular in Israel.
@@kikefuentes5191 The title in spanish would be something like "nuvoso con posibilidad de bolas de carne", that doesn't sound good at all, mainly because of the meatballs translation.
Into the Spiderverse really is just way too good to be true. I went into the theatre not expecting much and then left with so much love for that universe and its characters. It shook me to the core seeing such a perfect movie
It fuckin shook me just seeing so much love and personality bleed through. That almost never happens with big animations and for a fuckin spiderman movie of all things to just let the film go nuts it feels like mistake from the execs in the best way possible
Even though I knew that the Peter Parker in Miles's universe died since like 5 years before I watched the movie came out, when I watched it I became so sad that Miles's Peter died. I had NEVER felt this way about Peter dying in Miles's universe. Not only that, when I first saw the teaser for movie about different versions of Spiderman, something that I have loved from the start I heard about Spiderman, I was so happy this movie was being made.
@@sillyfegart5455 yep norm forced him to watch all the sony films maybe (except the good ones). but Norm failed to pick out the masterpiece ranked at the 7th best sony film which is angry birds 2. so nick watched it and was like "Yeah! so good"
Scahffrillas: "Let's just get this all over with so we can talk about Spider-verse again" Also Schaffrillas: *Talks about Surf's Up 2 for five minutes out of a fifty-four minute video*
@@fanofyoshi2238 that's subjective, it was a forgettable terrible movie I'll never see again, but the original I would've rewatched at least a few more times if the second movie hadn't left such a bad taste in my mouth. Your statement is kinda redundant
In case you're interested, the "Well yes but actually no" scene is from the straight to DVD special, 'So you want to be a Pirate' which came out shortly after the movie.
Strange cause I went with my family to see it and the best I heard from them was it’s ok. My dad said it had too much going on( but that makes for him, it’s a movie he would get more out of the rewatch), and my brother refuses to give me a reason.
I'm honestly just proud of Sony for cleaning up their act. They have a TON of talented people working with them and some seriously good stuff (outside of spider verse and MVM), but I was consistently disappointed with the easy cash grabs they used to make. But with the absolute masterpiece that is spider verse and the amazing MVM, and with spider verse 2 coming out, I'm honestly super excited and I think Sony might be making its way to topping most other animation studios. Edit: mann vs machine
Lately, Sony has really pushed to be a new, more experimental Pixar. Unlike Pixar, they really push their art styles so each of their new films look unique whereas Pixar has a similar style each film.
I have nostalgia for those dances. We never even had Just Dance, we would just watch recordings of it on my Mom’s computer and dance in front of it. Those were our favorites. Good times.
@@awesomesmileyguy Same, I feel like Ineither really missed the joke the internet has about hating the dude, or I missed on him doing something legit heinous because currently, as I remain blissfully unaware, I feel completely and utterly neutral about his existence
Im honestly really surprised and proud that sony could clear their name as quick and effectively as they did. Make no mistake, they have an absoloute horrific past, one that'll never be forgotten. but in these past few years, theyve cleaned up their act so well and are definately going on the right track! Im really excited for the day that Sony manages to top all the other major western animation studios for their artistic merit, and we'll be able to look back and see how far they've come
To add a real comment here: I totally agree! They're actually slowly becoming one of my favourite studios as of now. I think it was just after 2017 when it all came crumbling and the studio became notorious for their lack of quality is when they realised that they could do better. It's kind of insane how well they've adapted and been consistently been bringing out banger after banger with real, genuine quality to surpass Disney and all the other burnt out companies. We're getting Sony in its peak and I've never been happier to get the products of a studio at their creative high point :)
Also, the “well yes but actually no” meme comes from the short that was released along side the Pirates! Band of Misfits, but it is misquoted. He actually says “good guess but actually no” which is often misheard as “well yes but actually no”
Surf's Up is my all time favorite movie. I've seen it countless times. I put it on at work so I have something on in the background to break up the monotony without feeling compelled to spend time watching it. I fall asleep to it sometimes. I bought it on TH-cam so I can watch it on plane rides. Something about it is just pure joy, and Cody's emotions are so infectious. I feel like it was LEAGUES ahead of anything else at the time it came out, and I feel like it hasn't aged a day. I mean, the water in that movie is goregeous! Perfect casting, perfect characters, perfect set pieces, perfect soundtrack, perfect score, perfect movie. I forget where I saw this quote from, but someone said that Surf's Up walked so that Into the Spider-Verse could run; I absolutely agree with that.
I played the open season game and my favourite part was throwing Elliot off things and trying to escape from him. Though I still remember the haunting words. "Don't worry if you lose Elliot, he'll find his way back to you."
so glad Arthur Cristmas wasnt low on the list. Me and my little brother have nearly the entire movie memorized and watch it every year around xmas. GrandSanta is honestly the best character and Steves character arc was amazing. As Schafrillas said, watching the jolly man himself be imperfect was pretty great, and honestly the whole idea of the Santas fighting over titles was hilarious. Bryony the elf was another great character. Shes the tryhard elf at the beginning, but also was just a funny character overall. Arthur Cristmas is definitely worth watching for those of you who havent seen it.
almost nobody i know besides me and my own little brother knows what arthur christmas is and tbh im glad im too attached to it to handle other people hating it
when I tell people that it is my favorite Christmas movie almost nobody knows what the f I'm talking about, it makes me so sad that more people haven't watched it!
Its my familys favorite movie, ofc besides spiderverse, sadly my brother has severe anxiety so we didnt watch Micheals vs The Machines (he gets anxious about robots taking over, losing family, ect.) But its amazing. It gives all my family good vibes, the comedy my familys LOVES my father and sister are getting the heart butt tattooed once she turns 18, and we all have our extreme love for chicken joe
The "Well, yes, but actually no" is in the CD Extra Disk called "So You Want to Be a Pirate!", in which Pirate Captain hosts a talk show about being a pirate
Sony is like a redeemed villain. We can't forget the awful things they've done, and some may never be forgiven, but they are most definitely on the right track, and I can't wait to see what they'll do next. Also: Schaff: I need a summer vacation, but it's December, so who cares The entire southern hemisphere: *bruh*
@@IcyDiamond well yes and no, there are lots of parts in our country where it just doesn't snow period, it's a huge territory tho so you can travel to see snow but you can go years without it
Cool fact about Spiderverse. They animated Miles on 2s for the beginning of the film as he was learning his skills, which is why he seems a bit choppier then the older spiderman, who is animated on every frame. Later in the film as he grows in his role as spiderman, he gets animated on every frame as well. They talked about it on VFX artists react.
Speaking of that, in the Across the Spiderverse preview it looks like Miles has been animated on 2s again at least for the scene with Gwen. Which may Signify that he has an arc with how he's being animated. Just a nice touch.
The thing about Cloudy 2 is something I feel a lot of people forget; A sequel can be strictly worse and still be a good movie. Hell, any movie can be strictly worse than another movie and still be a good movie. Fun SPOILER about Angry Birds 1: The villains want to eat babies. That's the plot. That's why the protagonists want to stop them.
I've watched that once. And I've totally forgotten how much of a gem that movie was, because sadly there aren't many people who talked about it. Definitely gonna rewatch it for this Christmas.
This makes me so happy. My family watches it every Christmas Eve before we open presents and it makes me so happy other people have the same tradition and love the movie as much as I do. I love this. We even quote some one liners year round(there’s always time for a bow and sometimes I make my mom laugh when I randomly start singing silent night backwards :))
I feel like the Surf's up franchise is the perfect encapsulation of what Sony is as a studio. If driven into the corporate side of things, they make a shitshow out of their movies, but when given artistic freedom, their concepts, styles and ideas blow the movie's quality out of proportion
@Paz Sam Raimi: Okay I got my new Spider-Man movie with Harry Osborn and Sandman as the villains Avi Arad: Okay that’s cool, but can you ask Venom to the movie? Sam Raimi: Can we not though, I barley know anything about Venom Avi Arad: To bad he has to be in the movie lol
Honestly the fact that four of their last five films are in the Top 10 is really a testament to how much Sony has turned around their Animation Department. They're honestly killing it. And honestly all five of their last five are in my personal Top 10. I like Wish Dragon a bit more that Schaf clearly did. It's honestly higher than Vivo for me.
my opinion on wish dragon has shifted violently but it's "a 8/10 movie on its own but a high 6/10 considering it's copying Aladdin" and yes it's not a total ripoff but its experience is still impacted by how it's story and tone are so similar
Fun fact: When I was a kid watching Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, it never really hit me that the Mayor was the villain of the movie. It was only years later that I truly realized "Wait a minute. This guy's a villain!"
@@WolfRider2002 Kinda feel the same. He wasn't a front and center villain as he was the one that fueled Flint's Ego and Hubris. Where the villain, or should say problem, was all made by Flint and he had to go and fix it. Like even the machine wasn't a villain as it was getting corrupted and in the second movie, had a bit of a turn face.
"Well, yes, but actually no" is a mishearing of "Good guess, but actually no", from a DVD extra short, though the screenshot used in the meme does appear in the movie.

One thing I love abt The Mitchells VS The Machines is that they don't choose a side with technology is good or it's bad they show the good and bad of both sides and let the audience decide. Edit: to fix spelling errors
yeah. I found the movie to be pretty good but not great, but that was one of the things that stood out to me. A lot of modern movies tend to get really preachy when they're talking about technology and I really appreciate the more nuanced view from this one
I assumed it would be one of those movies when I first saw it advertised and never gave it another thought. Now I should really give it a try. In fact I think it be very healthy to watch with my family, perhaps it'll give them a reality check.

It goes without sayings. From Animation, to Score, to characters, to Story, it hits it out of the park. It will be remembered as one of the greatest animated movies of all time, at least the greatest animated movie in the 21 Century. From Sony of all studios.
I had to explain what a Audiophile is to my family because they had no idea what those people do for a living, safe to say they were confused for some reason for 3 ish minutes.
Finally, Pirates is getting recognition. I’ve always adored this movie and it’s witty humor and eloquent dialogue which doesn’t slow down for the audience’s sake. The story and characters are so charming and I can’t help but love it.
Many people are saying they like no way home more than Spiderverse. I'm genuinely excited to see just how good it must be to make people feel that way.
I remember the only thing that really annoyed me about Spiderverse was not the movie itself but the behind the scenes video footage I watched afterwards in which I promptly began to roll my eyes a lot and ended up shutting it off from its near endless virtue signaling. There's a certain point where you hear the same line about how proud they are to have picked a minority/woman character to be Spiderman for once that it becomes obnoxious.
There were some people in my family who found the pig a little too campy for their tastes, which I understand. It didn't ruin anything for me. I still adore every aspect of the film, but I can see where that was a little much for some viewers.
I can't believe NO ONE speaks about the The Pirates movie in the comments.It's THE DEFINITION of an underrated banger. No one talks about it. It's amazing and incredibly funny. It's impossible to just skip it. Everyone pass the word, please! This movie DESERVES much more love!
True story: I used to have a dvd player in my room hooked up to a tube TV. The dvd player broke and could only play the movie that was stuck in it, which was surf's up. I have always needed noise to sleep, so I would put it on every night from the time I was around 10-16. I have legitimately seen it thousands of times. One of my all time favorite movies. I had no idea there is a surfs up 2. I am so fucking glad I had no idea there was a surfs up 2. Cheers.
This is me but with Jet Set Radio Future stuck in my Xbox. The disc drive won't open so it's the only game I can play, but I love it so freakin much I don't even care! (It helps that most of my other favorite games on the system- like Psychonauts- can be found on steam or other consoles)
literally, Surfs Up is a childhood movie of mine and is high up on my little list of comfort films, and yet i never heard ANYTHING about a Surfs Up 2 until i saw this video. and my god i wish it stayed that way
I think you would have ranked Surf's Up higher if you had the whole context of that movies significance. It's not your fault obviously but for surfers, that movie is one of the best surf movies ever made. It perfectly captures the spirit of Soul Surfing and the conflicts between competition surfers and soul surfers. It even goes so far as to have Rob Machado (widely regarded as the founder of Free Surfing) and Kelly Slater (friend of Rob's and BY FAR the best competition surfer ever) make cameos in the movie. This movies captures the spirit of surfing so perfectly with a soundtrack that is has some of the most highly regarded songs in the Surf Music genre. This is all not to mention the parallels the movie has with the story of jay Moriarity whose story was portrayed in another phenomenal surfing movie, Chasing Maveriks. The performance of Jeff Bridges as Big Z really is phantastic as the old tired surfer who has lost his love for the sport. Chicken Joe might be a stereotype of the stoner surfer, but a rarely accurate one at that. Just a totally chill dude who's along for the ride. Tank is a hilarious antagonist who represents the mainstream transformation surfing is undergoing. Not to mention his "new style" shortboarding is a real contrast to the "old school" longboarding of Big Z's day. This was a real conflict that happened in the '90s as shortboards became mainstream. The sponsor guy is hilarious also. And to top it all off, the best part about this movie is the mockumentary style. For the longest time, the only surf media produced were in this documentary style. Even now there are few surf movies in a traditional style. The Endless Summer and The Endless Summer II are considered the most fundamental surf media ever made and are classics for the community. Bruce Brown's style of documentary and the movies he made are mimicked in Surfs Up so well that it invokes nostalgia in the old guard of surfing and reminds people my age of the history behind the culture. Not to mention the movie is set on a Hawaii-style island which is where the sport has its origins. Outside of the Endless Summer movies, Surfs Up is probably the best surf movie ever made. I really wish it got more attention from people outside of the surfing community. ALSO, FUCK THE WWE FOR TARNISHING THE FANTASTIC LEGACY OF THE ORIGINAL MOVIE! edit: sorry for the wall of text lol
i always thought that the 2 reporters looked like they were based on real people but i never give it much tought about it, thank you for taking the tim to explain all of this i already liked the movie very much, now i like it even more
I didnt have the attention span to read through all of your comment, forgive my adhd brain, but I enjoyed the half I did read. I just like seeing ppl just being passionate about stuff they love, its infectious, just, good feels. Also cool to know so much went into Surf's Up, I always liked it but having never surfed in my life most of those details just flew straight over my head, cool to know theres more depth to it than I knew!
The comment section of this comment is not passing the vibe check y'all i didn't realize just how good surfs up actually is for such a in my mind random sport
I watched angry birds 2 on Netflix one time while I was sick, expecting to see one of those “so bad it’s good” movies, then I started to actually enjoy it, so it’s good to know I’m not insane
I might just be brain-dead, but I don't get why people dislike the first movie. I had the same view of "so bad it's good" going into it, but I enjoyed Angry Birds 1 very much.
Mitchells VS the Machines honestly feels HEAVILY inspired by Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, the general energy of the movie is very similar (though even more frantic)
At least Mitchell’s characters no longer have to be floppy rubber hose tube man figures that look like they came from Fanboy and Chumchum with their over the top movement. That trend died out after HT3.

The terribly ironic thing about The Star is that there an infinitely better short film about a donkey seeing the birth of Christ, and it’s called The Small One (1979), directed by Don Bluth for Disney before he left the company shortly after making it. It’s only half an hour long but it manages to hold more emotional power than that feature length slog.
I will bet my entire life savings that the Emoji Movie is at the bottom of this list. There has never been a more obvious bottom spot in any ranking video ever. Edit: Oh… shit…

One thing I really liked about Cloudy was when he put _on_ her glasses and had that "woah" moment. As a glasses wearer, I've seen a little bit of stigma around glasses and looking nerdy or less attractive, and it's really nice to see the opposite.
@@patrickroden4481 Same, I just got mine about a year ago and I honestly can't stand seeing myself without them. They definitely improve my appearance a ton
The funny thing about Schaff saying that everything was cranked up to a 12 in Spiderverse was that for a good chunk of the film, Miles was actually animated in only 12fps!
that's one of my favorite aspects of the entire movie. definitely one of those things that they *did not* have to do, and yet DID. it's not even something you consciously register! yet they did it anyway -- and that level of detail, of commitment to storytelling at even the most meta, structural levels ... it blows my mind. that movie really does feel too good to be true.
@@fuecocogaming3645 honestly being exposed primarily the 24 FPS media has left me feeling that 24 FPS is the default. It doesn't look stuttery to me at all, and anytime I see any content other than video games that is presented at 60fps or more it leaves me feeling slightly nauseous because I am not used to non video game video media being any more than 24 frames a second.
Considering that in the first Angry Birds movie, Red was hated by everybody, it makes sense that since he was finally loved by the end, that his whole motivation would be to continue being loved in the second. It’s not a good characteristic of the movie, but it’s more understandable with backstory.
@@geosv It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Pol in kenexel has passed away. They were discovered unresponsive on the 14th, with the first Angry Birds repeating on loop, and did not pull through - despite multiple attempts to resuscitate them, they were announced dead at the scene within twenty minutes of paramedics' arrival. The circumstances seemed suspicious at first, but upon reviewing the torture they endured, their death was pronounced as a tragic result of watching the first Angry Birds movie. Please, if you know someone who might be considering watching or rewatching Angry Birds 1, implore them to find help. There are hotlines filled with professionals working 24/7 to rid the world of Angry Birds-related deaths, and there is the simple fact that if you suffer from wanting to revisit Angry Birds, you should not be forced to cope with this dangerous condition alone. This is a difficult time for everyone involved, and my sorrow goes out to Pol in kenexel's family in light of the devastating loss they are enduring.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was the first movie I remember watching as a kid that represented the girl wearing glasses as the "prettier" version of her, and as a little girl wearing glasses, that really meant a whole lot to me. I still remember that striking a chord with me as a kid.
I know, right? Sam does look so much better when she embraces her geeky side, as well as infinitely more relaxed and happy. :)
I think glasses are adorable and part of me thinks I'll be fine when my eyes inevitably stop working (needing glasses runs in the family) because I just think wearing glasses would be an interesting new look for me
OK BUT LIKE SINCE WHEN DID PEOPLE REALIZE THAT GLASSES LOOK NICE
Finally, a movie with good taste. Glasses make people prettier.
I'm sorry but has anyone ever seen someone take their glasses off? Their eyes look all tiny and strained it's not exactly an appealing look lmao

One extra detail that probably needs mentioning, in Mitchells vs the machines, Katie’s motivations are told through narration, where Rick’s motivations aren’t even told to us, we’re shown them through the videotapes we see of him and Katie. It’s a really subtle contrast that I didn’t even pick up on until my 3rd viewing!
Stupid bots
Yea and that bot message in particular seems everywhere.
One thing I just noticed, is that mirrors their worldview thing. Katie is explained using natural human contact, while Rick is explained using virtual media.

All the Hotel Transylvania movies are ao well animated on a technical level, it's been compared to "a team of automobile experts tasked with making a clown car" and I think that's pretty accurate
That Genndy Tartakovsky influence
@@br3akstuff Exactly 😩🔥
I'll pretend is a very high budget demo reel and leave it at that...
The 3rd one was meh
Seriously, the technicals behind how they animated it is amazing. They edited the model's meshes per frame to mimic the stylized squash and stretch of 2D, and it looks beautiful. If only the writing was on the same level
Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs was my entire childhood. I loved the premise and the first cast and everything. It’s just one of those films that was perfect (at least to 7 year old me).

The fact that there’s so many movies BELOW the emoji movie is saying something about Sony’s movie quality
Yeah, the fact that the movies who started to get something above 6 are all the way up until the 5/4 place and on is sad
It just goes to show how right and overhated AniMat was for bashing (pre-2019) Sony Pictures Animation to the ground.
Sure, before July 2018 (which was only a half-year before Into the Spider-verse came and finally saved the studio big time), AniMat was probably too harsh on the animation studio (to the point of FINALLY WISHING DEATH UPON THEM IN HIS EMOJI MOVIE REVIEW!!!!), but then again, at the end of the day, it’s great to see that he has the intelligence to bash Sony Animation every time it makes a film like all their direct to DVD sequels (Scared Silly being the only one of the four I don’t consider the worst of the worst. Bad? Sure. But terrible? Well, at least they actually tried to feel more like a genuine sequel to Open Season 1), Hotel Transylvania 3 and their trilogy of live-action remakes of the 2010s (The Smurfs 1 & 2 and especially Peter Rabbit 1. I haven’t seen Peter Rabbit 2, and I don’t think I want to…), which they made most of.
@@malu8380 6 /10 s starts with 14. Place I guess

Not anymore.
Thoroughly convinced that Emoji Movie was a fundraiser for Spider-verse.
That'd be the only acceptable reason for them to make it
Pretty sure they would’ve made more money on it if they advertised it that way 😂
The commercials should’ve been like, “hey, we know this is gonna be a sh!t movie but it’s just a fundraiser for this movie that will blow you away. So please watch the M E H movie so we can make the film of the decade. Thanks!”
huh..
my friend and i had to watch it (because we were hanging out and going to see a movie, but her little brother was there so we had to see something that would entertain him),,, so now i don't feel as bad about watching it.
I have never, EVER, heard Schaff be that livid in all the years of watching his content, and he unleases it only when talking about Surf's Up 2. It kinda startled me when I first saw it.
He’s always livid, when talking about the movies at the bottom of his lists, but I think Surf’s Up 2 may have taken him to a new level of rage.
@@Kaisona2017 Yeah, Turbo, Shrek the Third, Cars 2 and Earwig and the Witch induced some fury from this man. But Surf's Up 2... oh man.
not even in his shark tale review...
@@jaylen1378 Dude, he thinks that Shark Tale is so bad its good.
i honestly think he went off even harder in his Dear Evan Hansen review, but this is a VERY close second.
2:02 I wish I could fully express how magical the intro to this segment is.
The iconic "Disappointment in The Game of Life!" jingle, then nothing. Just darkness. Silence. The poster for the commercial slowly fades in and zooms out. James Phyrillas, in a tranquil fury, speaks a dread-inducing sentence that perfectly prepares the viewer to experience the ensuing manifestation of unadulterated Hell.
"To be perfectly honest, it feels really unfair to rank Surf's Up 2: WaveMania as a part of this list for one simple fact: it. is not. a movie."
Phenomenal.
“It is a feature length commercial. And no I’m not exaggerating.”
I feel like Sony is gonna slowly become a good studio seeing how a lot of the top movies came out pretty recently
They already are a good studio; they just need to learn how to maintain consistency like pixar.
@@OmarFW no they need to learn to stop butting in with their crap ideas. So many times especially with the Raimi and Webb spider man movies they were ruined because they didn’t let the creator just make a movie. They kept saying add this in, do this or we want this. It finally looks like they’ve learned their lesson though.
THIS IS SONY! THEY CAN MAKE REALLY GOOD ANIMATED MOVIES! come on, show them!

THEY CAN'T DO IT ON COMMAND!
@@_Shay_ Tbf... I don't think the people handling the animation department are the same as the live-action stuff.

I love how unique all of the animation styles are. Cloudy, Spiderverse, Mitchells, even emoji movie. They're all so damn distinct and I really like the diversity
FR That's really one kf my favourite things about them, even though their movies are kind of a hit or miss, the animation is always pretty good
Meh, spiderverse? Yes. Cloudy? Yes. That's about it. Plenty of generic animation in this list
You can't tell me that if you put Mitchells next to Hotel Transylvania next to Arthur Christmas (best movie all time should have won an Oscar for best picture in history) they're very different
@@HummusIsHome well those are fine examples (hotel transylvania whatever) but you can't tell me that animation is a redeeming quality of a lot of these movies

Thatw called budget prioritys.
good dinosaur also has great water animation, and that one scene in cars 3. that's about it
@@randomcat5262 good dinosaur had a little to much chibi-toy animation, cars 3 had classical disney animation with good quality but it was extremely boring
I disagree that it’s better than some newer stuff. Finding Dory has great stuff. But for the time it was great, and it still holds up.
@@david4rancibia34 yeah im nont a huge fan of either movie
"I genuinely want to know why the people who made this movie thought a donkey and his annoying bird friend were more interesting protagonists than the parents of Jesus Christ" is legitimately my favorite line from any Schaffrilas video. It sounds so f*cking funny out of context and I quote it all the time for no reason at all other than the fact that I just want to say it
Like Jesus Christ, that’s Jesus Christ

You're still mad about that? I thought we forgave Sony
I think my favourite part about Wish Dragon is how the story isn't centered around romance but rather a boy trying to reuinite with a childhood friend after they had to split up because her family had to move. Its a lot more compelling to root for the two of them when the reasoning is "This person was an important part of my childhood and I want us to have a close friendship again after losing it" rather than your typical "I really like pretty lady and want us to be together".
Even though there are still many hints throughout the movie that the 2 of them are developing feeling for each other, and it kinda lets you assume the close friendship continues to grow until it turns into a romantic relationship later on.
agreed!
Amen amen!!!
@@Robalexe That's perfectly fine, because there's an actual REASON there for them to have feelings for each other, rather than just "I just met pretty lady and she did nice things and is nice and I love her now."
@@GoddoDoggo Exactly. It's developed. Starts off longing for that friendship again, then it progressively becomes something more for both.
One thing I really like about Sonys animation is that it tends to be visually quite distinct, the characters often have this zany energy to them that you normally only find in 2d-cartoons.

@@iamastanchion3598 Surf’s up 2 is going home (which is by the way hell 😉)
Hotel Transylvania may not be a great film story-wise, but I absolutely adore its rubberhose-style, energetic animation. I honestly think the animation makes the experience of watching it that much better.
Yeah, never was a big fan of those movies themselves, but I gave it a lot of points for doing something new in an industry that had gotten in a rut animation-wise. That's not to say that movies like Encanto, Moana, etc aren't beautifully animated, but Sony's willingness to try new things and succeed hopefully opens doors for Disney to do something a little less conventional and safe seeing how much money a lot of the Sony ones made.
When I see every last movie from Sony Pictures Animation, The Emoji Movie is 100% awful and a horrible nightmare to my mind
The story is a 5/10 at best, but the animation itself brings it up to a 6/10 or even a low 7.
yeah. Genndy Tartakovsky's leadership on the animation here genuinely brought the movie so much higher than it would've been without it.
The one fart joke they make is exhausting, but the facial expressions Drac and Murray make are priceless.
27:45 Fun Fact: The funni actually exists because in other countries, Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation is given a less generic title.
In which it's called Hotel Transylvania 3: A Monster Vacation.
If you ask me "A Monster Vacation" sounds a lot better then "Summer Vacation".
Sounds more like bare minimun > nothing
Yeah, what was up with the American subtitle? Why not use the other one?
I think Cloudy realy showed Sony's true potential that was hiding, and after the emoji movie I think they decided to go for quality over cash grabs, which seems to have really worked out with them. Honestly, I'm getting more and more hyped for each of their releases, they're up there with Pixar in my eyes. They're so easily on their way to being one of the best studios alongside Dreamworks and Pixar.
in a way the emoji movie doesn't seem to be a complete waste. sony's been doing pretty good since then. so i wonder if they'd still be making good movies today if they never learned that lesson.
Before Cloudy there was Surfs Up though, Cloudy was still better though
Honestly, I stopped being hyped up about Pixar movies long ago. They just pump out a bunch of cynical movies now, with the occassional fantastic one.
DreamWorks has always been hit or miss with me, but now I'm excited with whatever Sony and Pixar are going to make next.
Pixar is losing its quality and just producing safe and formulated movies that don’t have that wow factor anymore.
My personal theory is that Surfs Up 2 takes place in an alternate reality, where the protagonist was inspired by Penguin John Cena instead of Z, so he had completely different morals and alternate events played out.
thats actually a better plot than the movie
That's my headcanon
I did not know there was a Surf’s Up 2 before this video, and you know what, I still don’t know 👩🦯
Oh, so it's fanfiction.
For me I would say Surf’s Up is at the top of what Sony has ever made from one scene. The scene where they ride waves and the voice overs of surfers talking about the feeling of being in a tube brings me to tears every time. No other movie has ever done this to me about a thing I don’t know or care much about. Yet it makes me feel like surfing is the only important thing in the world.
i just watched it today after years of thinking about how dumb i thought it was as a kid. my dad loves surfs up and i knew that going into it but was blown away by how much of it's charm i had forgotten about. holy fuck it's amazing. its beautiful and surprisingly hilarious. the reality documentary works really makes it shine. also almost none of the movie feels like filler, they use the time wisely and don't drag on past it's due time. the scene of big z and cody carving the surfboard is something I've been quoting for years because of my dad's love for the scene but only remembered today :)
I like the scene where they keep repeating Cody getting knocked out by the wave.
Fr Surf's Up strikes this super weird emotional chord with me despite it being such a clumsy excuse for a movie
And the movie is super funny as well. Listening to Shia LaBeouf scream when the wave hits on rewind was hilarious.
That scene where they describe riding in the tube is phenomenal. My dad used to surf when he was younger and he's told me that every which way they describe it is exactly that, you can't describe that feeling. You can only feel it and only so many skilled people can ever experience that. The only other scene that I think even comes close is at the end of the movie when Cody is riding in the tube himself while "You Get What You Give" is playing. The sheer glee I get from that scene is probably enough to power a city.
I've watched this movie way back before I could even remember, and it's always held a special place in my heart for being a comfort movie and one I can connect to my dad with. And that music they play will always give me goosebumps and make me so happy in a way that only Ghibli movies have achieved for me. I will sing the praises of this movie til the day I die.

Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs in Israel is actually called “Rain of Falafel”. It was probably changed for marketing reasons since meatballs aren’t very popular in Israel.

@@apenasmaisumdiogo.7115 Yeah it's the same in all of Latin America and probably Spain

the whole starting sequence with the military trained elfs delivering presents like a GIJOE operation was my favorite part of the movie.
I absolutely love that movie lmao
Into the Spiderverse really is just way too good to be true. I went into the theatre not expecting much and then left with so much love for that universe and its characters. It shook me to the core seeing such a perfect movie
i think that’s what makes it so good everyone didn’t have high expectations
It fuckin shook me just seeing so much love and personality bleed through. That almost never happens with big animations and for a fuckin spiderman movie of all things to just let the film go nuts it feels like mistake from the execs in the best way possible
no but literally. i couldnt care less about most superhero movies and yet i ADORED spiderverse
Even though I knew that the Peter Parker in Miles's universe died since like 5 years before I watched the movie came out, when I watched it I became so sad that Miles's Peter died. I had NEVER felt this way about Peter dying in Miles's universe. Not only that, when I first saw the teaser for movie about different versions of Spiderman, something that I have loved from the start I heard about Spiderman, I was so happy this movie was being made.
My wife got me the info the spider verse art book for Christmas it's one of my favorite books I own now

Strange cause I went with my family to see it and the best I heard from them was it’s ok. My dad said it had too much going on( but that makes for him, it’s a movie he would get more out of the rewatch), and my brother refuses to give me a reason.

I'm honestly just proud of Sony for cleaning up their act. They have a TON of talented people working with them and some seriously good stuff (outside of spider verse and MVM), but I was consistently disappointed with the easy cash grabs they used to make. But with the absolute masterpiece that is spider verse and the amazing MVM, and with spider verse 2 coming out, I'm honestly super excited and I think Sony might be making its way to topping most other animation studios.
Edit: mann vs machine
"Sonic speed" + ratio
Lately, Sony has really pushed to be a new, more experimental Pixar. Unlike Pixar, they really push their art styles so each of their new films look unique whereas Pixar has a similar style each film.

Im honestly really surprised and proud that sony could clear their name as quick and effectively as they did. Make no mistake, they have an absoloute horrific past, one that'll never be forgotten. but in these past few years, theyve cleaned up their act so well and are definately going on the right track! Im really excited for the day that Sony manages to top all the other major western animation studios for their artistic merit, and we'll be able to look back and see how far they've come
@Wimi Sasha no
To add a real comment here:
I totally agree! They're actually slowly becoming one of my favourite studios as of now. I think it was just after 2017 when it all came crumbling and the studio became notorious for their lack of quality is when they realised that they could do better. It's kind of insane how well they've adapted and been consistently been bringing out banger after banger with real, genuine quality to surpass Disney and all the other burnt out companies. We're getting Sony in its peak and I've never been happier to get the products of a studio at their creative high point :)
Also, the “well yes but actually no” meme comes from the short that was released along side the Pirates! Band of Misfits, but it is misquoted. He actually says “good guess but actually no” which is often misheard as “well yes but actually no”
I have vague, fever dream-like memories of that movie
heres the clip: th-cam.com/video/QTHNYSLaHME/w-d-xo.html
Surf's Up is my all time favorite movie. I've seen it countless times. I put it on at work so I have something on in the background to break up the monotony without feeling compelled to spend time watching it. I fall asleep to it sometimes. I bought it on TH-cam so I can watch it on plane rides. Something about it is just pure joy, and Cody's emotions are so infectious. I feel like it was LEAGUES ahead of anything else at the time it came out, and I feel like it hasn't aged a day. I mean, the water in that movie is goregeous! Perfect casting, perfect characters, perfect set pieces, perfect soundtrack, perfect score, perfect movie. I forget where I saw this quote from, but someone said that Surf's Up walked so that Into the Spider-Verse could run; I absolutely agree with that.
I played the open season game and my favourite part was throwing Elliot off things and trying to escape from him. Though I still remember the haunting words. "Don't worry if you lose Elliot, he'll find his way back to you."
Underrated comment that deserves more likes
Welp, wish granted I guess
This is the comment I most vibe with
that is so fucking funny
legit this line would fit in a horror movie trailer
I remember in the Surf’s Up game you could unlock Elliot as a secret character.
so glad Arthur Cristmas wasnt low on the list. Me and my little brother have nearly the entire movie memorized and watch it every year around xmas. GrandSanta is honestly the best character and Steves character arc was amazing. As Schafrillas said, watching the jolly man himself be imperfect was pretty great, and honestly the whole idea of the Santas fighting over titles was hilarious. Bryony the elf was another great character. Shes the tryhard elf at the beginning, but also was just a funny character overall. Arthur Cristmas is definitely worth watching for those of you who havent seen it.
almost nobody i know besides me and my own little brother knows what arthur christmas is and tbh im glad im too attached to it to handle other people hating it
@@aaassshhheeerrr same if schaf had shit on it i didnt know how id react lol
when I tell people that it is my favorite Christmas movie almost nobody knows what the f I'm talking about, it makes me so sad that more people haven't watched it!
The mockumentary format, the characters, THE SOUNDTRACK...
Even all these years later, Surfs Up still leaves me smiling
HELL YEAH!
Epic moment
I just recently watched it and it did not disappoint!
Its my familys favorite movie, ofc besides spiderverse,
sadly my brother has severe anxiety so we didnt watch Micheals vs The Machines (he gets anxious about robots taking over, losing family, ect.)
But its amazing. It gives all my family good vibes, the comedy my familys LOVES my father and sister are getting the heart butt tattooed once she turns 18, and we all have our extreme love for chicken joe
it also had Big Z
The "Well, yes, but actually no" is in the CD Extra Disk called "So You Want to Be a Pirate!", in which Pirate Captain hosts a talk show about being a pirate
And the line is actually "Good guess, but actually no".
Sony is like a redeemed villain. We can't forget the awful things they've done, and some may never be forgiven, but they are most definitely on the right track, and I can't wait to see what they'll do next.

Cool fact about Spiderverse. They animated Miles on 2s for the beginning of the film as he was learning his skills, which is why he seems a bit choppier then the older spiderman, who is animated on every frame. Later in the film as he grows in his role as spiderman, he gets animated on every frame as well. They talked about it on VFX artists react.
That’s super cool
Speaking of that, in the Across the Spiderverse preview it looks like Miles has been animated on 2s again at least for the scene with Gwen. Which may Signify that he has an arc with how he's being animated. Just a nice touch.
I swear I see this comment on every single video that mentions Spiderverse
The thing about Cloudy 2 is something I feel a lot of people forget; A sequel can be strictly worse and still be a good movie. Hell, any movie can be strictly worse than another movie and still be a good movie.

Arthur Christmas has been a yearly tradition in my family for about 6 years now and I’m so happy to see someone finally talk about how amazing it is
SAME! I didn’t know anyone else had even seen it til now
i literally have never heard anyone else talk about that movie and it's one of my most favorite movies ever and definitely my favorite christmas movie
I've watched that once. And I've totally forgotten how much of a gem that movie was, because sadly there aren't many people who talked about it. Definitely gonna rewatch it for this Christmas.
Arthur Christmas is honestly one of my favorite Christmas movies. It’s so fun to watch. Nice to see that others like it too
This makes me so happy. My family watches it every Christmas Eve before we open presents and it makes me so happy other people have the same tradition and love the movie as much as I do. I love this.

@@luigigaming3713 it was taken over by bots
I feel like the Surf's up franchise is the perfect encapsulation of what Sony is as a studio.
If driven into the corporate side of things, they make a shitshow out of their movies, but when given artistic freedom, their concepts, styles and ideas blow the movie's quality out of proportion
First movie is one of their first good movies. Proceeds to ruin with the sequel.
@Paz Sam Raimi: Okay I got my new Spider-Man movie with Harry Osborn and Sandman as the villains

35:51 of course it had to be big weld, every time you reference Mel, give us more holy goodness that is big weld.
Honestly the fact that four of their last five films are in the Top 10 is really a testament to how much Sony has turned around their Animation Department. They're honestly killing it. And honestly all five of their last five are in my personal Top 10. I like Wish Dragon a bit more that Schaf clearly did. It's honestly higher than Vivo for me.
honestly
I didn’t like the animation at all in Wishing Dragon, looks like they broke one of their bones by just walking
my opinion on wish dragon has shifted violently but it's "a 8/10 movie on its own but a high 6/10 considering it's copying Aladdin" and yes it's not a total ripoff but its experience is still impacted by how it's story and tone are so similar
I loved Wish Dragon, it deserved to be much higher
@Florin beby OMG!!
A spambot replied to one of my comments?

It's so wild that the same studio that made Open Season went on to make Into the Spiderverse. That's character development.

@@AtlasBlizzard Boy do I got some great news for you in regards to *Sony Pictures Animation*
Fun fact: When I was a kid watching Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs, it never really hit me that the Mayor was the villain of the movie. It was only years later that I truly realized "Wait a minute. This guy's a villain!"
To be fair, he really just exacerbates the problem of Flint’s ego, taking a bit more of a backseat role in creating conflict.
Probably because he was way too funny and voiced by Bruce Campbell that people didn’t notice….
@@DwarvenHydra That's pretty much the exact reason why I missed the fact that he was a villain
Nikocado Avocado
@@WolfRider2002 Kinda feel the same. He wasn't a front and center villain as he was the one that fueled Flint's Ego and Hubris. Where the villain, or should say problem, was all made by Flint and he had to go and fix it. Like even the machine wasn't a villain as it was getting corrupted and in the second movie, had a bit of a turn face.
"Well, yes, but actually no" is a mishearing of "Good guess, but actually no", from a DVD extra short, though the screenshot used in the meme does appear in the movie.

Weird how Open Season was one of the movies I grew up with and gradually introduced me to more better animation in Sony's part.
Honestly Dumbsville description of Open Season saying it's a movie is much appropriate tbh but Sony is alot better today than before

One thing I love abt The Mitchells VS The Machines is that they don't choose a side with technology is good or it's bad they show the good and bad of both sides and let the audience decide. Edit: to fix spelling errors
What you said reminds me of the anime Shiki
@@SomeoneThatIsHappy I think I might have heard abt that b4. The name sounds familiar
yeah. I found the movie to be pretty good but not great, but that was one of the things that stood out to me. A lot of modern movies tend to get really preachy when they're talking about technology and I really appreciate the more nuanced view from this one
Yeah, it focuses on the topic of family without being another “tech bad, kids are stupid” movie
I assumed it would be one of those movies when I first saw it advertised and never gave it another thought.
Now I should really give it a try. In fact I think it be very healthy to watch with my family, perhaps it'll give them a reality check.

When I watched the pirates movie I was in fifth grade with the flu. My eyes where stinging from the flu and that’s all I remembered about the movie 😭
Agreed, I really wish Aardman did more these days, Earlyman was kind of eh, not bad just not really on the same level and more boring
Spiderverse is one of the very few movies I find to be literally flawless. Like I can't find a single bad thing about it.
Many people are saying they like no way home more than Spiderverse. I'm genuinely excited to see just how good it must be to make people feel that way.
@@goobs62 there's no way
@@goobs62 no way home is sooo good (coming from someone who fully expected to hate it) but it's not even close to spiderverse 😭
I remember the only thing that really annoyed me about Spiderverse was not the movie itself but the behind the scenes video footage I watched afterwards in which I promptly began to roll my eyes a lot and ended up shutting it off from its near endless virtue signaling. There's a certain point where you hear the same line about how proud they are to have picked a minority/woman character to be Spiderman for once that it becomes obnoxious.
There were some people in my family who found the pig a little too campy for their tastes, which I understand. It didn't ruin anything for me. I still adore every aspect of the film, but I can see where that was a little much for some viewers.
I can't believe NO ONE speaks about the The Pirates movie in the comments.It's THE DEFINITION of an underrated banger. No one talks about it. It's amazing and incredibly funny. It's impossible to just skip it. Everyone pass the word, please! This movie DESERVES much more love!

True story:
I used to have a dvd player in my room hooked up to a tube TV. The dvd player broke and could only play the movie that was stuck in it, which was surf's up. I have always needed noise to sleep, so I would put it on every night from the time I was around 10-16. I have legitimately seen it thousands of times. One of my all time favorite movies. I had no idea there is a surfs up 2. I am so fucking glad I had no idea there was a surfs up 2. Cheers.
This is me but with Jet Set Radio Future stuck in my Xbox. The disc drive won't open so it's the only game I can play, but I love it so freakin much I don't even care! (It helps that most of my other favorite games on the system- like Psychonauts- can be found on steam or other consoles)
@@misteryA555 jet set radio future is on my top 10 best video game of all time, I cannot wait to see Bomb Rush Cyberfunk out
literally, Surfs Up is a childhood movie of mine and is high up on my little list of comfort films, and yet i never heard ANYTHING about a Surfs Up 2 until i saw this video. and my god i wish it stayed that way
Damn
Holy shit, someone else. I basically had this experience but with the movie Bone Alone. I must've watched that movie hundreds of times.
I think you would have ranked Surf's Up higher if you had the whole context of that movies significance. It's not your fault obviously but for surfers, that movie is one of the best surf movies ever made. It perfectly captures the spirit of Soul Surfing and the conflicts between competition surfers and soul surfers. It even goes so far as to have Rob Machado (widely regarded as the founder of Free Surfing) and Kelly Slater (friend of Rob's and BY FAR the best competition surfer ever) make cameos in the movie. This movies captures the spirit of surfing so perfectly with a soundtrack that is has some of the most highly regarded songs in the Surf Music genre. This is all not to mention the parallels the movie has with the story of jay Moriarity whose story was portrayed in another phenomenal surfing movie, Chasing Maveriks. The performance of Jeff Bridges as Big Z really is phantastic as the old tired surfer who has lost his love for the sport. Chicken Joe might be a stereotype of the stoner surfer, but a rarely accurate one at that. Just a totally chill dude who's along for the ride. Tank is a hilarious antagonist who represents the mainstream transformation surfing is undergoing. Not to mention his "new style" shortboarding is a real contrast to the "old school" longboarding of Big Z's day. This was a real conflict that happened in the '90s as shortboards became mainstream. The sponsor guy is hilarious also.
And to top it all off, the best part about this movie is the mockumentary style. For the longest time, the only surf media produced were in this documentary style. Even now there are few surf movies in a traditional style. The Endless Summer and The Endless Summer II are considered the most fundamental surf media ever made and are classics for the community. Bruce Brown's style of documentary and the movies he made are mimicked in Surfs Up so well that it invokes nostalgia in the old guard of surfing and reminds people my age of the history behind the culture. Not to mention the movie is set on a Hawaii-style island which is where the sport has its origins.
Outside of the Endless Summer movies, Surfs Up is probably the best surf movie ever made. I really wish it got more attention from people outside of the surfing community.
ALSO, FUCK THE WWE FOR TARNISHING THE FANTASTIC LEGACY OF THE ORIGINAL MOVIE!

I came into the comment section looking for the timestamps

The terribly ironic thing about The Star is that there an infinitely better short film about a donkey seeing the birth of Christ, and it’s called The Small One (1979), directed by Don Bluth for Disney before he left the company shortly after making it. It’s only half an hour long but it manages to hold more emotional power than that feature length slog.
Yo, this comment unlocked some random memories for me. I remember seeing that short at my grandparents’ house when I was like 7.
Course it's bluth lol
YES YES YES!
Thank you, I was thinking this the WHOLE time during that segment.
Heck, even Rankin Bass' Nestor the Long Eared Donkey was better.
@@TELMEman you beat me to saying this by a minute FYI LOL 😂
@@aztn19 Damn, that's a feeling I know all too well 😭

One thing I really liked about Cloudy was when he put _on_ her glasses and had that "woah" moment. As a glasses wearer, I've seen a little bit of stigma around glasses and looking nerdy or less attractive, and it's really nice to see the opposite.
Same.
As someone who didn't have glasses when the first movie came out, but am now a glasses-wearer I really loved seeing that
Stigma for glass wearers when, in elementary? Lmaoo oooookkkkk
@@barombolobombolo1501 there's still stigma throughout even if you didn't personally notice it
@@patrickroden4481 Same, I just got mine about a year ago and I honestly can't stand seeing myself without them. They definitely improve my appearance a ton
The funny thing about Schaff saying that everything was cranked up to a 12 in Spiderverse was that for a good chunk of the film, Miles was actually animated in only 12fps!
that's one of my favorite aspects of the entire movie. definitely one of those things that they *did not* have to do, and yet DID. it's not even something you consciously register! yet they did it anyway -- and that level of detail, of commitment to storytelling at even the most meta, structural levels ... it blows my mind. that movie really does feel too good to be true.
@@fear_toxin Into the Spiderverse is FANTASTIC and modern day MASTERPIECE of animation!!!!
Fun Fact: 24 FPS is often the framerate many movies run in, simply just to have that laggy drag look.
@@fuecocogaming3645 honestly being exposed primarily the 24 FPS media has left me feeling that 24 FPS is the default. It doesn't look stuttery to me at all, and anytime I see any content other than video games that is presented at 60fps or more it leaves me feeling slightly nauseous because I am not used to non video game video media being any more than 24 frames a second.
@@fear_toxin To make things even better, right after Miles took a leap of faith, he is now animated in 24fps
19:44 the way he says torture makes me laugh every time
Considering that in the first Angry Birds movie, Red was hated by everybody, it makes sense that since he was finally loved by the end, that his whole motivation would be to continue being loved in the second. It’s not a good characteristic of the movie, but it’s more understandable with backstory.
@Pol Raper so how it went?
@Pol Raper facts, how did it go?
@@geosv It is with a heavy heart that I announce that Pol in kenexel has passed away. They were discovered unresponsive on the 14th, with the first Angry Birds repeating on loop, and did not pull through - despite multiple attempts to resuscitate them, they were announced dead at the scene within twenty minutes of paramedics' arrival. The circumstances seemed suspicious at first, but upon reviewing the torture they endured, their death was pronounced as a tragic result of watching the first Angry Birds movie.
Please, if you know someone who might be considering watching or rewatching Angry Birds 1, implore them to find help. There are hotlines filled with professionals working 24/7 to rid the world of Angry Birds-related deaths, and there is the simple fact that if you suffer from wanting to revisit Angry Birds, you should not be forced to cope with this dangerous condition alone.
This is a difficult time for everyone involved, and my sorrow goes out to Pol in kenexel's family in light of the devastating loss they are enduring.
I though it missing what a similar movie called Zambizia has

The fact that the Emoji movie is not in the bottom 3 is terribly concerning.
Because the Emoji Movie is a *fundraiser* for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse and considering the amount of success and an *Oscar for Best Animated Picture* for the latter, it worked!
Bottom 5
is not even bottom 5
The Emoji Movie isn't even that bad

Cool fact about goosebumps. Slappy
the audiophile joke in Goosebumps was shockingly funny and out of the blue, loved it
Haven’t seen the movie since it’s release, so I definitely didn’t get that joke the first time around. Need to rewatch it
I was actually thinking about this joke right before hearing it in a RadicalSoda video.
@@freddyfangamer1964 eyyyyyyyy
i don’t get it but uh
haha funny joke
@BASIL the word “audiophile” has the suffix “phile” in it. Another certain word that has “phile” in it is illegal. Hopefully you know what word I’m talking about.
The Pirates is 100% the most underrated Sony film. Glad someone brought it up
I forgot it was a Sony film, to me it's more of an Aardman film but I agree it's great and needs more attention.
