At least the sequels actually continue the story instead of making it into a flat out cash grab
The last part was kinda like that.
Especially Penguin movie.
+Nikita Karelins Nah. That was more of a finishing point.
Seems like it doesn't really follow the story
In the first one they're in Madagascar
In the second they're in Africa
In the third they're in a circus?!What?!
+ssj99lucario the second one was. the third was crap.
"Sugar
Honey
Ice
Tea!"
How to secretly put swear in kids movies.
+Diamond 1 Yasuo When I first saw this movie when it came out, I already knew what he said. Shocked, but laughing.
+John the Phantom --- I Hate Google+. lol nope not me, I forgot when exactly I finally figured it out, but when I was little I didn't even know what it was he said.
00ammy00 but you have to say it's a bit odd why they would put it in to begin with.
I swear The Cat in the Hat had a very similar joke.
KiraMustDie26 Yeah it had to do with the name of the Cat's old car - its name made the acronym S.H.I.T.
I loved the old lady. Especially her return in the sequel
+HappyMcDull - You're kidding right?
+nikosafer1 kinda in the minority on that buddy
+Jkop I agree with Nikosafer1. I was glad to see her return, but she became one of the main villains and you can only continue that joke for so long before it goes flat. I thought there was just too much of her for it to continue being funny.
Bad kitty!
I actually didn't care for Madagascar when it came out, but it grew on me over the years. King Julian is fantastically hilarious.
I wasn’t around when the first film came out (but I was when the sequels did) and I didn’t really think Madagascar was anything special. I did love The Penguins of Madagascar though. But after finally watching the first Madagascar film in 2019, I enjoyed it, so I eventually watched the other 2 and boy do I love them.
In case you were wondering Madagascar was released on May 27, 2005 The Wild was released on April 14, 2006. Madagascar was released first.
Yeah, Doug watched The Wild before so I wouldn’t really call what he says about the film valid (talking about The Wild, of course).
@@rmn070 yep
I can't believe Madagascar is a decade old. The first film will always be the best of the 3 because of its uniqueness, style, originality, charm, and personality. The sequel expanded the scope, and it was certainly almost equal to the first in terms of quality. The third installment, while good, didn't really live up to the first or second. There were loose ends. Where was Alex's mom or dad? Why didn't we get to see him say goodbye to them? The third film also came off as another rehash. It was amazing the first time around. They expanded on that the second time. By the third time, it felt kind of tired. Go from Point A, to Point B, to Point C. Marty was one note in the third, but he had a good arc in the first two. Melman and Gloria...actually, their cute together, so I won't say much. Alex is the protagonist, so he was fine. Overall, if I had to give the whole trilogy a score, it would be a 89/100.
The series "penguins of Madagascar " is very funny, not like the recent new cartoons
+Uomo Masso it's better than the Kung Fu Panda TV series because at least Penguins of Madagascar was true to their characters and very funny.
Penguins of Madagascar was the shit
Some episode of that series scared me as a kid
Madagascar > The Wild
+Kal-El fan 49 The Wild looks like a fucking ripoff. Considering that it came out a whole year after, it certainly is.
superherofan24 And Madagascar is way funnier
Kal-El fan 49 and it came out first
Madagascar = The Wild
I, my father and my brothers saw this film in Oxford when it came out and i remember this very strongly as a great movie. As I've watched it since different things appeal to me, like my love of all things America and NYC. For me this film is special and really is a classic.
God, I remember how much I loved this movie, and still do. It's one of my favorites.
While The Wild was in development first, Madagascar came out first. However, before anyone say that Madagascar's the real ripoff, it doesn't really make The Wild a superior film.
The Wild was terrible imho...
nice too see another person with a digimon picture! :D
+MrSideliner It was fine. It has flaws, but it has some great jokes.
I hated the wild. Imo it is the worst Disney film ever.
It doesn't matter. you can start a test before someone and still copy from them
And then the penguins got a tv series, and i have to say it, they needed it
ya think
I absolutely love this movie!! It was part of my childhood and it has aged well!
This whole series is by far my favorite DreamWorks series.
I remember watching this when I was a kid, then I watched the sequels later and it's a fun franchise and I really do enjoy it.
I saw the Penguins of Madagascar movie, and it also has that energy along with "professional" rivals and a hilarious villain with a both diabolical and absurd plan.
In my opnion, Madagascar is one of those movie series that just improved with the next movies. 1 was ok, 2 was good, 3 was great.
the part where the tiger yelled that's bolshevik was hilarious
2
+Caiuxa190 Totally agree!
A film franchise that just gets better and never fails, like Toy Story
3 wasn't nice tbh. It didn't feel like "Madagascar". I loved the first movie but the second was the best.
The penguins are awesome and hilarious. They are never hopping along or behind the main characters. They're always off doing their own thing. They're overconfident too which makes it more funny.
Fun fact: the director/creator of Madagascar (can't remember who exactly) went to my elementary school, so the whole school (or at least the 4-6th graders, can't remember) got to go see the premiere before it hit theatres.
That’s amazing!
Late comment but I believe his name is Tom McGrath. Who also voiced Skipper in these movies
I don't understand lay people's common misconception that every small furry creature must be a rodent. Rodent is an actual term to describe closely related species. It's not a generic term like beast or bug. Lemurs are primates like us.
+riv4lm4n 1: It's pretty common knowledge that Lemurs are primates.
2: You use autism as an insult, and are therefore automatically stupid.
*tip fedora*
riv4lm4n Hm. I was about to tell you to grow up, but then I remembered this is a TH-cam comment section. Intelligence and logic don't work in this universe.
Oh, yes please MegaMadman64 grace me with your intellectual perfection !
riv4lm4n *Intellectual gracing intensifies*
I loved Madagascar it was funny and made me laugh the old lady that scene just had me on the floor my sides were hurting not joking
Anyone else want DreamWorks-ary to comeback?
Heck yeah!
2:15 Madagascar came out first in May 2005 and then The Wild eleven months later.
...Rodents? RODENTS?!
Lemurs are primates, not rodents. And the Penguins just got their own movie based of the TV show based off this movie. The show and the movie were both great. In fact The Penguins of Madagascar was probably the last good thing Nickelodeon ever made.
Doug must be so happy when The Penguins got their own movie.
1:15 LEMURS ARE PRIMATES, NOT RODENTS!!!!!
And I thought him mistaking the crab from _Moana_ for a turtle was stupid.
I hate this movie ( although I enjoy watching it ) because I was in kindergarten, when it came out and my name is *Maurice*. You will not believe how many King Julien impressions I´ve heard in my life.
The sequels and Penguins spin-off ( In which King Julien and Maurice had an even bigger part) didn´t exactly help. :D
+Berotej the sequels had better reviews
+SmashLiXs I didn´t criticize the quality of those movies. I meant that they kept Madagascar popular ( I think they´re more popular in Germany than any other place), so that until today most people will do a King Julien impression within two weeks of meeting me . :D
Oh dear, did the kids start making King Julien impressions around you simply because your name was the same as the character in the film? Because that’s awful. 🤣
I love Madagascar
Madagascar came out one year before The Wild
Surprisingly Madagascar 2 was even better. Though, I'm not sure about the 3rd one as I have never saw it.
My aunt got me this film when she was in Spain and the dramatic heart to heart between Marty and Arty (I think that's his name lol) randomly goes to Spanish and it used to scare me so much when I was a kid XD
Aside from the Penguins, the old lady was my favorite part of the movie. I love her, especially in the sequel.
This movie does beat out The Wild. I saw The Wild in theaters and forgot I saw it. This was one of the few occurrences where Dreamworks was better than Disney. The Madagascar Trilogy is amazing :)
The first time i watched this The dentist played this above my head when I had to get 2 caps I don't remember much because it was 8 years ago and I was high of my ass on laughing gas
to all the people talking about the wild vs madagascar; it takes a LONG A S S time to make an animated movie. Inside Out's processing began in 2008. Yeah, 2008!! So it's not quite like the people who produced The Wild saw Madagascar and was like WE HAVE TO COUNTER THAT. They more than likely already had the concept, but Madagascar got out first.
i like to move it move it
i like to move it move it
oh god damn it doug now its stuck in my head again
Everyone loved the Penguins so much they had a movie. It's alright
I saw this movie once. On a bus ride from Charlottesville to Baltimore to an Orioles game. My dad's job got us sky box tickets. That was awesome. Boog Powell's BBQ is the best ballpark food in the country. The movie was torture. The other two times we got company rides to Orioles games, we saw Brother Bear and Cat in the Hat. It was a dark time.
Andrew Cuthbertson which movie did you like better
Lemurs aren't rodents Doug they're primates, monkeys, specifically since they possess tails. And they're primarily frugivorous so dine on fruit but also eat insects and arachnids. The predators you see hunting them are fossa which are real-life arboreal cats
We are all steak!
I'm steak mememememe! 😂😂
The Wild came out after this.
JESUS THIS WAS 2016!!! My god time Goes fast
I remember the first time I watched this movie. I also played the video game.
I had no idea Sasha Baron Cohen played Julian.
Madagascar came out first. I remember when the Wild came out in theaters all I was thinking about was the similarities to Madagascar.
When I was a kid, I had no interest in "Madagascar", I pretty much expected to be just like Doug said, a lazy film with a predictable story and uninteresting characters. But when I was forced to watch it. I was very pleasantly surprised at how invested I was by the time we got to Alex attacking his friends.
I'm glad DreamWorks doesn't feel that every film they make has to be an Oscar-bait masterpiece. They can just once in a while crank out a nice fun little movie for kids and their parents to enjoy.
Same thing happened with me. Except for the fact that I was 11 when I actually watched the whole of the first film and before then, I didn’t think it was anything special.
one of the best DreamWorks films next to Shrek.
I think the second one is the best.
Ah...my favorite cartoon of all time
I renember this movie,it was cool and hilarious.,when I was a child I laughed a lot
random story in my mothers car their was a way to watch DVD inside of it and we only put this movie AND ONLY THIS MOVIE so u can guess that for 2 years i know every dialogue, action, order and EVERY SECOND OF IT I WOULD KNOW IT BY HEART!!!
this movie is a masterpice after sherk
Madagascar is one of those movies that get better in every movie.
DreamWorks Madagascar (2005)
Cast: Ben Stiller Chris Rock
David Schwimmer Jada Pinkett Smith Sacha Barin-Cohen and so on and so fourth it's awesome and I will always love it for that Great Comedy!
If I had a penny for everytime one of my classmates sung "I like to move it, move it..."
I liked this a lot :)
Jada Pinkett Smith and Chris rock in a movie together…😅 👋😆
This is the first movie I remember seeing in theatres
The penguins of madagascar movie was surprisingly HILARIOUS. If you like the penguins I legit recommend it.
who would've guessed doug actually liked this movie
I looove this movie.
This movie has the best casting ever
This was the first movie I saw in theaters.
LOL! Just wait until you get to the Penguins Movie. Yeah, there's that.
+Dodi Tov That fucking ending.
+The Reviewer TELL ME
Nexis siempreaqui Zombie penguins, that's all I need to say.
The Reviewer oH MY GOD
That "lion" has a name, thank you very much
Madagascar was I think the first movie I saw. I think I saw it in theatres but I'm not 100% sure. But this movie is really funny then and now.
Madagascar is one of my favorite films of 2005 plus Peter Jackson's King Kong and Charlie And The Chocolate Factory
humans are the best rodents
Wow, now there's adds on every single video I click for this channel! Hooray for commercialism!
the wild ripped this off so hard
Man that song gets stuck in your head.
There ARE more penguins. Hell, you can't escape the penguins!
Madagascar came out almost a year before The Wild.
My issue with _Madagascar_ is that what seemed to be the main conflict of the movie (Alex's temptation to eat his friends) is _entirely negated_ in the conclusion. Not utilized, not resolved, just outright dropped because suddenly there are fish.
The rest of the movie I rather liked, but seriously fuck that conclusion with a brick. On second thought, make that _two bricks!_
Meh I appreciated this move more now than I did when I was little. I didn't like how goofy charismatic Alex turns into a psychopath and tries to eat everyone. That shit was dark.
i love madagascar!
Madagascar is an awesome DreamWorks series along with Shrek, How to Train Your Dragon and Kung Fu Panda. Plus Madagascar was released a year before The Wild and The Wild wasn't even produced by Disney themselves. That's why the animation in that movie is more clunky, slow and choppy. Good thing Madagascar made more movies than the Wild with each sequel getting better.
1:30 so you always start expecting shit
I love it
I'm not really an expert on this but I don't think it's humane to keep an animal in wood crate. But I guess it's more like putting your cat or dog in a pet carrier. I should really check out the Penguins movies. The Penguins were the funniest side characters in any movie. Seriously secret agent penguins, try saying that and not laugh.
3:10 Oh...
You poor, poor fool.
You see, I liked the first one. I always felt like the third one was kinda cash-grabby, but still ok. I'm gonna be honest. I have never finished 2. It's so boooooooring!!
Any new ones coming out soon? I'd be pretty exited for a review of Home or maybe even a Spoiler Corner of Kung Fu Panda 3.
+jedi sammy Him and Rob said that they will being doing a Spoiler Corner for Kung Fu Panda 3
When that is, I have no clue.
legendlord4751 Yeah it just released not too long ago. I heard it's really good, but I haven't seen it for myself.
A deserted island, or a remote jungle on an island called Madagascar, which is in fact it's own country so it's not uninhabited?
Yeah, the penguins were also my favorite characters
Madagascar came first
Yes, but The Wild was in production first.
OH GOD DOUG WHY DID YOU JUST CALL LEMURS " RODENTS"!!!!
Nostalgia critic:A tribe of rodents-
Me: do Those look like rodents to you?
I saw this in theaters
the penguins are better comic relief than the minions. glob why did penguins of madagascar flop while minions made a billion? penguins had a better movie
Ah 2005 the time before I lived in a shit hole known as California.
You should definitely watch the Penguins movie. It's another one of those "how can a movie with such a stupid premise be so good" movies.
Madagascar came out before the wild
Sugar Honey Ice Tea!
This is more of a Stiller movie than a Rock Movie
Lemurs, critic! They're called lemurs and they're actually a kind of primate.
I think I played the DS game before I saw the movie. I fucking loved that game.
Antz came out before Bugs Life, and the story was rejected by Disney before Bug's Life was written. Dreamworks was formed with the idea of releasing films like Antz, which Disney rejected for being too adult. Unfortunately, the studio has since become the more juvenile of the two.
I usually end up enjoying DreamWorks movies more than Disney or Pixar movies, though. As someone who hates it when comedy is forced into movies just for the sake of it, I'd rather a movie that's meant to be funny over something that's meant to be sad/cute/endearing but really isn't. Give me Shrek, Madagascar or Kung Fu Panda over that Disney stuff any day. Except for The Incredibles 1 and 2 and Ratatouille, all directed by Brad Bird. And I liked the beginning of Up but I kinda hated the rest of the movie. I despised Frozen and all the other ones are so forgettable I genuinely can't remember them.
Still, both companies are way better than Illumination.
he has to review the penguins of Madagascar movie that just came out semi-recently.
now penguins of Madagascar
