@@thisisavivistanaccount7866 I wish her well, and I hope she made money from her past shows, but she just lacked the it factor, in my opinion. Ariana and Miley definitely had it. Tori didn’t, and her Victorious TV show itself was awful: lame set pieces, writing etc. so that was a bad place for her. Her career was not laid out nicely for her, instead, it was badly laid out for her…
The reason why Fun Size was considered "too inappropriate for Nickelodeon", is because the movie was planned to be distributed by MTV Films(which is understandable enough, because MTV made original adult programming before: Beavis and Butthead, its spinoff Daria, the proposed replacement The Brothers Grunt, Celebrity Deathmatch, PFFR's Wonder Showzen, vice versa), but it was later changed to Nickelodeon handling the studio label. Victoria Justice the year before did a fantastic job in The Boy Who Cried Werewolf(which I consider to be 'Ginger Snaps For Kids'), and is more of a family film than Fun Size. I won't mind if Nickelodeon creating their first R-rated film, but they have to not make the same mistakes before by the reasons of this movie alone; so that way, the general audience brand handled by them wouldn't be tarnished by concerned parents yet again due to the film's graphic nature overall. Lesson learned.
100% agree, I didn’t know that it was originally gonna be distributed by MTV though, that’s interesting. Probably would have done a lot better there tbh. I feel like nowadays Nickelodeon has handled mature content decently well. With stuff like the Icarly revival and Zoey 102. So maybe they should try it again or just go hard R
there's something comforting about the 2010-2012 movies... it's like they still had the 90s movie charm & optimism in the then-modern day. thanks for covering this criminally underrated movie
You put it perfectly, there’s a sense of genuine fun and wholeheartedness that movies just seem to lack these days. I wish it succeeded so we could have gotten more Nick teen movies tbh
I hear you but pg-13 means so many different things in America, the teenage mutant ninja turtles movies are pg-13 here, so is every spider-man movie that has ever released. So it’s hard to know what’s actually inappropriate
They should’ve created an all new studio for Nickelodeon to make PG-13 materials & call it TeeNick Movies. Or better yet, why not just make that movie as an MTV Film production?😅
That would have definitely been the way to go, and it was probably the plan at one point but once this movie flopped they just pretended like it never happened
@ but hey think about it, without Fun Size we might not have Michael Bay’s infamously hideous Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies that are also rated PG-13👌🏻
Angus thong is such an iconic movie here in the uk for my generation, it’s like a time capsule of a specific time in British history before Tesco inflated the price of meal deals….
I'm in the US, my brother and I loved this movie. Watched it on Nick@Nite all 3x they aired it 😂. Best soundtrack, and I will always be uncomfortable by that kissing scene 😅
Okay the more comments I get like this, the more I want to watch this movie and make a video on it. Was angus thongs really this iconic??!! Would you say it’s the uk’s wimpy kid? How would you describe this movie to an American who has never seen it?
theoretically, Nickelodeon could rerun some of their edgier shows like Ren & Stimpy, Zim, Last Airbender, etc. on Nick at Nite, but for some reason that has never crossed the executives minds.
Funny thing is that this released a few years after Superbad, so it's a little strange that they decided to wait like 5 extra years to make a raunchy teen comedy
It was a valid attempt at the Superbad formula but such a masterpiece like Superbad isn’t easy to replicate. I think they did a good job for the most part. I left the ending out of this video but the end joke is so bad lmaoo it gets hard to watch
Every now and then I just randomly remember "some movie on Nickelodeon where a kid dressed as Spider-Man" and nothing beyond that. Can't wait to finally see what it truly was
I don't remember where I watched this, but I remember watching it when I was younger. Never knew it was a Nickelodeon movie. You just unlocked a memory haha!
I love that this unlocked a memory lol, what a weird era this was. A lot of people know they’ve seen this movie but have no clue where or how Nickelodeon even allowed this. That’s so much fun lol
The little kid cursing has been engraved in my brain for YEARS and I forgot where it came from until this video, I thought I was trippin when I saw this on Nickelodeon as a kid
I find it interesting that Nickelodeon claims that this movie was banned from ever airing on any of their networks. I remember seeing this movie on TeenNick when I still paid for cable in 2016. I truly think this movie is underrated. The world just wasn't ready for something like it. I also loved the jacket Wren wore in the movie!
@caitlingill Adventures in Babysitting came out in 1987, which was over 20 years before Fun Size, and it was a Disney movie, so kind of similar idea there, too.
You just unlocked my memory of this movie. I remember watching this movie, had absolutely no idea what I was watching, yet I still remembered certain scenes, especially when the nerd shot the bully’s chicken
@ It’s a fever dream cause it’s a somewhat mature movie on Nickelodeon. Kids ain’t gonna remember this entire movie that well, especially all the wild moments
It’s insane how most of the people who saw advertisements for this movie had no clue it was a Nickelodeon film. Parents took their kids to see this thing because they advertised it on ninja turtle DVDs, wild world lol
Honestly, I would love to see Victoria Justice play Ginormica in a live action remake of Monsters vs Aliens. She already has the body build and Cheekbones for the character.
You literally watched the video saw that it was included then commented it to act like you knew some niche fact. I don’t understand how people like you exist have some shame
So at 2:10 when he talks about her being a sexy kitty then immediately after shrugging his shoulders and saying I don’t know like that, you can tell he doesn’t really fully understand what he’s talking about and when they commented on it he didn’t feel really comfortable about it
Yeah it’s a weird clip, that kid has done a lot of teen/adult movies where he was around inappropriate stuff but seeing that clip made me remember that he’s just a little kid. He didn’t even know how to separate acting from reality.
Don’t lose your sense of childlike wonder!! Adults should watch more fun stuff like this, I bet the world would be a lot happier that way lol. I’m gonna start this tradition as well, this will be an every October watch for me too!
This came out my freshman year of highschool and i have watched it every year since. Its definitely one of those nostalgia comfort movies for me. Also thats the kid who did that grandpa movie with knoxvile!
This was the VERY first pg-13 movie my mom let my brother and I watch before she started heavily researching each movie we watched. But rewatching it gives me so much nostalgia and also makes a lot of my personality make sense😂
This is actually hilarious because i remember me and all my friends avoided this movie like the plague when it came out because we all thought it'd be a watered down babys first teen comedy movie just because it was advertised as a nickelodeon movie
@Childishju well from what you show in the review it looks like we probably would have liked it. It looks pretty funny and the raunchiness is right up my younger self's alley.
I remember seeing a trailer of Fun-Size in like a TH-cam compilation of Teaser Trailers from Nickelodeon movies (From Harriet the Spy to the 2nd SpongeBob Movie). That’s when I first heard of Fun-Size, and I had no idea why Victorious was in a movie where a kid wears a Spider-Man costume and I think a guy wearing a Scout costume.
the song they play when they visit their dad's grave is called "start over" by abandoned pools. they performed clone high's intro theme and had multiple of their songs in the show
Yep, this is true. But they don’t actually play it in the movie, I just thought the song fit perfectly. It’s such a beautiful song lol, you have great taste
My school played this movie on the school bus during my 6th grade thinking it was safe because it was a nick movie 💀 Also I totally forgot Kevin from supernatural was in this movie
This movie is a guilty pleasure for me, yeah it’s not a good movie but I still do have fun watching it every occasional Halloween and this movie is also a perfect time capsule of the early 2010s which makes it more fun to watch especially if you were a zoomer growing up in that area.
Oh I for sure see this movie as a wholesome time capsule that I will forever love and cherish. I miss the early 2010s, phones existed but didn’t rule everyone’s life just yet. Good times
I randomly caught this on cable one night & thought it wasn't bad. The soundtrack is killer & the cast was pretty recognizable. Riki Lindhome from Garfunkel & Oates is Galaxy Girl.
I really appreciate that big oof, comments like that genuinely mean a lot! I hope you stick around, my next video is gonna be wild. (Dan Schneider wild)
Oh i was ready for it, this got me into Victoria Justice’s career/I was only 8 and was catapulted into this shi, I absolutely loved it idfk, I was so obsessed with this movie :3
I do remember watching this movie as like a 6 or 7 year old (by myself at my maw maws TV) I enjoyed the movie, but I was confused of why this is a Nickelodeon movie.
i was 11 when this movie came out and i convinced my parents to let me and my younger sister watch it. nick marketed the shit out of it and i told my parents that tori vega was in it so it couldn’t be that bad, which i genuinely believed. all four of us sat down and watched it after church one day and we made it like 1/3rd of the way through until my sister started asking what nair was, i didn’t get to pick out movies anymore after that…
@@witchywoman6855LMAOOO No way you did your little sister like that😂, that’s hilarious. After CHURCH??!! That’s so diabolical lmaooo, having to explain what nair is to your little sister is so wild. This is definitely one of my favorite comments
Yeah, I remember enjoying this movie but I was, like, 18 when it came out. It was just a goofy teen Halloween movie to me, but I agree it wasn’t meant for a younger age bracket (hence the rating). Fun casual movie though from what I remember.
When I first saw this it was on a bootleg dvd at my cousins house and we all really liked it. It was cheesy but a fun intro into cliché young adult tropes that would be shown later on to us with Superbad or Booksmart. We all felt so cool at 17/18 watching “little kid movies” lol that had “more inappropriate stuff” since we were all super sheltered literally even kisses were taboo to witness on a screen so even if it seems lame to enjoy the movies made for teens they gave some of the sheltered kids like me and my cousins some insight into the real world
That’s such a sweet story, I agree. I really appreciate how cute and dumb this movie can be, it’s just teens wanting to have a good time lol. It’s a good watch in my opinion. It’s also free on TH-cam right now
1. Hello there, I am new to your channel. 2. 1:40, That has got to be the weirdest name for a Movie I have EVER heard in my life, probably because I never heard of it. Sounds like the name of a South Park or Family Guy Parody Film in my opinion.
@@Childishju The r-rated movie could be a prequel to iCarly showing how Mrs Benson got divorced for what reason like I don't know Mrs Benson is a cheater and her ex-husband is a murderous psychopath
angus thongs and perfect snogging is a book series also but it’s 13PG as well but that movie is a TREASURE in the UK and Ireland for young teens 🤣 great video!!
I’ve seen so many comments saying this exact thing. I have to watch this film, I may make a video on it if it’s good. I see a baby Aaron Taylor Johnson is in it and I love that guy
@@bigfootmyth323 I’m glad I was able to refresh it for you lol!! It’s FREE on TH-cam right now if you want to watch it, also I appreciate you commenting!!
You can probably give em' points for experimenting! I saw a trailer of this once! I haven't gotten to watch this at the time. Maybe because I wasn't in that specific age group (if you know what I mean)!
since when do you put nair on then get dressed and go out leaving it on??? this makes no sense that shit starts burning bad at around the 5 minute mark.
I actually remembered watching this movie when it came out in theaters. I honestly forgot it was associated with nick, and basically forgot the plot bc that was the only time I watched it. however after watching this vid and seeing how it was as I’m older I think it’s interesting for what it was. can’t believe they had johnny knoxville 😭
I was gonna play the scene where she explains it but TH-cam’s claim system is so quick to flag a video that I had to cut multiple videos out. The lines had already been recorded so I couldn’t just re-record it for a third time but yeah i should have added some type of visual that showed that lol
This film was such a classic to me, almost every year on Halloween I'd watch it just because of the nostalgia, shocked no one really talks about it nowadays, the soundtrack is also amazing. But this movie was one I place as a favorite for me (especially as a kid)
Absolutely agree, banger soundtrack, wholesome ending, Halloween theme, it’s definitely a hidden gem for me. I can’t believe that I love this film so much
now that i think about it, Victoria Justice was in SO many Nick projects. They really wanted her to be their Miley Cyrus equivalent.
She genuinely could have been, she deserves that type of respect but Ariana overshadowed her and that put an end to it unfortunately.
@@Childishju I agree!
It was Dan Schneider, he was the one who spread those rumors you still hear about now
@@thisisavivistanaccount7866 I wish her well, and I hope she made money from her past shows, but she just lacked the it factor, in my opinion. Ariana and Miley definitely had it.

Was changing.
No more kid friendly movies.
You live long enough to play the hero
Or to see yourself become the

Nick making pedo jokes while dan was still on the roster is actually insane
Lmaooo yeah, there’s a lot of that. Speaking of which, my next video may touch on that a little bit🤫

"Too dumb for adults, too dirty for kids"

Perfect way to describe such a classic film

It's cringe af though.
Tbh it's the parent's fault for taking their kids to see this movie and not checking to see it was PG-13

Somehow I missed every single airing lmaoo
@@Childishju I’m not sure I would say it’s uks diary of a wimpy kid but it was its own sorta thing, I guess a uk classic to watch haha
Fun fact: this movie was filmed in the city i lived in at the time and i knew people who were extras in it.
Ohio right? That’s pretty cool!
You think you coulda walked up in there and passed off as an extra?
It’s still funny to think Nickelodeon was trying to cash in on the Raunchy teen comedy market that was later popularized with films like Superbad .
theoretically, Nickelodeon could rerun some of their edgier shows like Ren & Stimpy, Zim, Last Airbender, etc. on Nick at Nite, but for some reason that has never crossed the executives minds.

Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging (kissing) was a book popular in the uk. makes sense they'd only put the film adaptation there
Snogging means kissing?? That sounds so gross why not just say angus thongs and the perfect kiss??
@@Childishjubecause it's their weird British slang lol i don't know what to tell you
Fun fact: the friend April was played by Jane Levy who also starred in evil dead 2013 and don’t breathe
I FORGOT SHE WAS IN DONT BREATH, how did I miss that?? She’s great
13:40 I love how the lyrics to the song in the background are
"Shake that ass
Move that butt hole
Shake that ass"
Nickelodeon had no chill lmaooo
that was a wild intro bro
I must be missing something, it hurts when I sit.
So i wasn't tripping, this was a Nickelodeon film
Yup, actually kinda insane that they let this happen. I still love it though
@@Childishju to me as long as a bad film is actually fun, it's not truly bad

Very progressive of Nickelodeon to put two moms in a movie... meanwhile behinds the scenes, Dan Schneider being Dan Schneider.
Schneider is gonna Schneider. (He has no affiliation with this film as far as I know)
When she started taking the jacket off, i thought this movie was going in a way different direction 😳
this feels like a fever dream
Probably the closest thing to it tbh
I don't remember where I watched this, but I remember watching it when I was younger. Never knew it was a Nickelodeon movie. You just unlocked a memory haha!
No fr same to

I love that this unlocked a memory lol, what a weird era this was. A lot of people know they’ve seen this movie but have no clue where or how Nickelodeon even allowed this. That’s so much fun lol

I’m hearing from a few people that Nickelodeon actually aired this on the channel, if that’s true that’s insane!
Saw Victoria Justice and clicked.
She has such a recognizable face
And a sweet ass!
She got them perfect lil cheek bones
@@Childishju lmfao
I find it interesting that Nickelodeon claims that this movie was banned from ever airing on any of their networks. I remember seeing this movie on TeenNick when I still paid for cable in 2016. I truly think this movie is underrated. The world just wasn't ready for something like it. I also loved the jacket Wren wore in the movie!
It was more a branding thing that people weren't ready for, because it's basically a remake of Adventures in Babysitting.
I agree the world just wasn’t ready for it. I don’t know if it came out too soon or not soon enough but I love it. And it is a pretty sweet jacket

YES, this is the DEFINITIVE Halloween movie. I think rebeltaxi was supposed to talk about it but it’s been years so idk
Honestly, I would love to see Victoria Justice play Ginormica in a live action remake of Monsters vs Aliens. She already has the body build and Cheekbones for the character.
That would actually be pretty good casting
I was actually IN this movie. I plan on doing a video myself soon.
Woah no way? Contact me, id love to hear about your experience! Do you have discord or anything?

I do remember watching this movie as like a 6 or 7 year old (by myself at my maw maws TV) I enjoyed the movie, but I was confused of why this is a Nickelodeon movie.
I’m glad you enjoyed it even at 6 or 7 years old, I bet that Nickelodeon logo really threw you off though
i was 11 when this movie came out and i convinced my parents to let me and my younger sister watch it. nick marketed the shit out of it and i told my parents that tori vega was in it so it couldn’t be that bad, which i genuinely believed. all four of us sat down and watched it after church one day and we made it like 1/3rd of the way through until my sister started asking what nair was, i didn’t get to pick out movies anymore after that…
@@witchywoman6855LMAOOO No way you did your little sister like that😂, that’s hilarious. After CHURCH??!! That’s so diabolical lmaooo, having to explain what nair is to your little sister is so wild. This is definitely one of my favorite comments
@@Childishju i was a victim too😭 nick’s marketing team did me so dirty
Yeah, I remember enjoying this movie but I was, like, 18 when it came out. It was just a goofy teen Halloween movie to me, but I agree it wasn’t meant for a younger age bracket (hence the rating). Fun casual movie though from what I remember.
Yeah I enjoyed it a lot even though I was only 11 when I saw it. It’s a pretty fun flick that can be appreciated a lot more when your older
@@Childishju totally! :)
18 still feels too old to enjoy this kinda movie.... But I'm 27 and watch Amazing World of Gumball so I can't talk too much shit
I was almost going to say "The Perfect Score" was PG13 but I remember that was an MTV movie. lol
Yeah there’s a lot of brand confusion between the two, apparently fun size was supposed to be released by MTV

When I first saw this it was on a bootleg dvd at my cousins house and we all really liked it. It was cheesy but a fun intro into cliché young adult tropes that would be shown later on to us with Superbad or Booksmart. We all felt so cool at 17/18 watching “little kid movies” lol that had “more inappropriate stuff” since we were all super sheltered literally even kisses were taboo to witness on a screen so even if it seems lame to enjoy the movies made for teens they gave some of the sheltered kids like me and my cousins some insight into the real world
That’s such a sweet story, I agree. I really appreciate how cute and dumb this movie can be, it’s just teens wanting to have a good time lol. It’s a good watch in my opinion. It’s also free on TH-cam right now
I remember this coming out and the other kids talking about how crazy it was that Nick made a more mature film
The other kids were right lol
This came out my freshman year of highschool and i have watched it every year since. Its definitely one of those nostalgia comfort movies for me.
I think I’m gonna do the same, idk why but it just made me so happy watching this. The soundtrack is incredible too
I watched this with my parents & younger brothers when it came out I was 13 we all liked it it was a "family movie" for us lmao
This is the exact type of family I had, if it was funny then we didn’t care lmaoo we were gonna watch it.
This movie lowkey nostalgic for me
Oh 100% this film is beyond nostalgic, crazy how I related to Albert (spider-man) more as a kid and now I prefer wrens story as an adult.
I remember being a kid and thinking it was sweet tbh
Same it is pretty sweet
1. Hello there, I am new to your channel.
2. 1:40, That has got to be the weirdest name for a Movie I have EVER heard in my life, probably because I never heard of it.
Sounds like the name of a South Park or Family Guy Parody Film in my opinion.
I THOUGHT THE SAME THING!!!! What a weird name for a coming of age Nickelodeon film lol.
And I’m glad to have you here, thanks for watching!!
@@Childishju True and no problem
if Nickelodeon attempted an r-rated movie it would be highly illegal possibly Schneider's bakery illegal
I might be making a Schneider video next. It may be on the list
@@Childishju The r-rated movie could be a prequel to iCarly showing how Mrs Benson got divorced for what reason like I don't know Mrs Benson is a cheater and her ex-husband is a murderous psychopath
angus thongs and perfect snogging is a book series also but it’s 13PG as well but that movie is a TREASURE in the UK and Ireland for young teens 🤣 great video!!
I’ve seen so many comments saying this exact thing. I have to watch this film, I may make a video on it if it’s good. I see a baby Aaron Taylor Johnson is in it and I love that guy
That’s the kid from Bad Grandpa
This is a correct statement!
0:20 ayo wtf was that comment?🤔
I forgot I was recording. My bad
@@Childishju 🤣
Nickelodeon 😢
@@Childishjuweird flex but ok
Dude I swear the algorithm be listening too much. I watched this last week.
Dang they got your recommendations on point fam
OH MY GOD?? I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS MOVIE FOR YEARS AND IT JUST RANDOMLY POPS UP??
@@bigfootmyth323 I’m glad I was able to refresh it for you lol!! It’s FREE on TH-cam right now if you want to watch it, also I appreciate you commenting!!
You can probably give em' points for experimenting! I saw a trailer of this once! I haven't gotten to watch this at the time. Maybe because I wasn't in that specific age group (if you know what I mean)!
I hear you lol, they definitely deserve points for trying. It was a very valid attempt at making something special. I can appreciate that
since when do you put nair on then get dressed and go out leaving it on??? this makes no sense that shit starts burning bad at around the 5 minute mark.
I couldn’t include it but she’s scratching and yanking her butt while walking with a limp for the entire movie lol
Why not release the movie as A MTV film ?
Good point. My best guess is they thought Victoria justice leading would lend itself to box office success with the victorious fans
I actually remembered watching this movie when it came out in theaters. I honestly forgot it was associated with nick, and basically forgot the plot bc that was the only time I watched it. however after watching this vid and seeing how it was as I’m older I think it’s interesting for what it was. can’t believe they had johnny knoxville 😭
I was just as surprised lol, apparently Nickelodeon has a pretty close relationship with him. He played Leonardo in 2014s teenage mutant ninja turtles
That jacket was dope, i have been looking for one for years
The TH-camr doesn't mention who the Jacket belonged to but it was from one of the Beastie Boys. (I'm not kidding)
It is a pretty dope jacket tbh
I was gonna play the scene where she explains it but TH-cam’s claim system is so quick to flag a video that I had to cut multiple videos out. The lines had already been recorded so I couldn’t just re-record it for a third time but yeah i should have added some type of visual that showed that lol
I remember renting this from Redbox and liking it
It’s a fun watch lol and Redbox??!! That was a minute ago, I kinda miss renting stuff from there
Fun Size is actually an amazing high quality movie and I felt like it was wholesome IDC
I agree 100%, is so sweet and stupid. It’s just so much fun and genuinely is wholesome. I wish it succeeded so we could have gotten more
This film was such a classic to me, almost every year on Halloween I'd watch it just because of the nostalgia, shocked no one really talks about it nowadays, the soundtrack is also amazing.
But this movie was one I place as a favorite for me (especially as a kid)
ME TOO EVERY YEAR
THE MUSIC IS SO FIRE
Absolutely agree, banger soundtrack, wholesome ending, Halloween theme, it’s definitely a hidden gem for me. I can’t believe that I love this film so much
I totally forgot about this movie and I watch this definitely before 13
lol yeah it’s a wild ride of a movie that didn’t really find its audience until later on I guess
i have been WAITING for someone to make a video like this about this movie
this video completely unlocked the memory of this movie and how much i loved it as a kid
So many unlocked memories, I’m glad. It’s a sweet film
I remember I watched this on tv when I was home suick. Literally thought this movie wasn't real until recently
If I would have seen this when I was sick I wouldn’t believe it was real either lol
absolutely insane opening statement
I didn’t know the mic was on, my fault fam.
I used to love this movie so much omg
SAME!! I miss movies that are just fun for the sake of being fun
It’s free on TH-cam if you wanna watch it again
This movie is crazier than I remember
Never fails to surprise me
Wait, this was PG-13 and Rango wasn't? Hmmmmm.
Right? I was genuinely shocked to see that
I thought this movie was a fever dream I had
It probably was for the writers but it’s a gem in my eyes
God bless you all, I hope you all have a blessed day 🩷
I appreciate you dropping by and spreading some positivity. Amen, stay blessed
i used to love this movie omg, i rewatched it recently too!
It’s such a weirdly charming movie
Didn’t think I’d ever see Johny Knoxville in a nick movie
He was in this and played Leonardo in 2014s teenage mutant ninja turtles
@ what really why am I now finding this out
