*Shout out to the creators of this very... interesting Yu-Gi-Oh fan film. We poked a lot of fun at it here, but as a channel that's done a lot of skits, I'm sure it took a lot of work to make. Hope you guys enjoyed watching along, too!* 😆
Theres way better irl yugioh series out there that would be awesome for you all to react to (like the impossible studios series, awesome editing and its actually decent)
Tubi is an actual treasure. You can find almost about anything on it & the quality will be all over the place. It honestly has the same energy as finding a random DVD at your Dollar General/Dollar Tree store.
My brother Steven died back in September of last year. Two things he absolutely loved were Yugioh and fun bad movies. He would've had a field day with this here. I want to watch it in his honor. It looks like a stupid fun time.
There's so much love put in this film. That Duel Disk was homemade, it's obvious when you look at the close ups. They used their own cards as props, sleeves and all. Kaiba and Bandit Keith went so hard. Even Joey put his whole Joe-ussy into it. Drunk uncle Yugi is so hilarious. The mix of flash animation, 3D models and actors in front of a green screen for the duel... This took time and effort.
Tbh they also got another thing right. When Bandit Keith tried to beat up Joey but Joey beat up Bandit Keith instead, that was actually in the manga in the middle of the island and it got changed in the anime. It’s wild that this of all things retained a manga tough Joey better than the anime lol
I was genuinely entertained by this movie. I like how they had practical 2000s decks. I like how they portrayed Yugi as someone who needs his friends in place of family. This is a story about the weird goth kid and his friends caught up in duel monsters mania. No more, no less.
There's a TH-cam series called "White Dragon Legacy" by Treasure Key Studios and it's an indie live action about Yu-Gi-Oh and it plays out beat by beat like the anime - but it's own seperate story. The acting is really good and they do a great job nailing the 2000s anime vibes despite the low budget. I recommend it
I think the greatest Hollywood story ever would be if someone wrote an incredible adaptation, cast the same guy as Goku, and it makes buttloads of money
Tubi is like the digital version of a Pharmacy or Dollar Store DVD bargain bin. You'll drift through a sea of crap before finding some good stuff, and if you're really lucky, you'll find disastrous gems like this!
Haha in my defense, accents never really came easy to me. I think I watched the first episode before we started filming to try to understand how he talked. It just ended up being a bad Boston/Chicago accent I think.
This is so bad that it's good category 🤣 the amount of times I had to laugh cuz it was stupid omg 🫢😂, but hey cudos to the dude playing Seto he gave it his all 😂
@@LowTierScrub Please say you’re not just memeing here, cause with how cringe the script has been in the first… 10 or so minutes, I honestly expect that to happen
My favorite parts of this videos: 1. Larry and Alec: "Five Hundred Thousand Dollars." Made me say it with them. 2. Raigeki. Fake Mai: "Regayki." Alec: Let's not pronounce it like that. 3. Alec: Tistan, Step back! What are you going to do?!? Larry: Point him with his hair. Me: Larry delivered. XDD 4. Weevil = Nerdy Draco Malfoy Thanks, Alec. Now I can't unsee Harry Potter and and a Yugioh Crossover. XDD 5. Joey punches Bandit Keith. Larry laughing hard. Best moment of this video. 6. Silver Fang Vaping Attack 7: The Yugi losing faith. Alec laughing his butt of the chair almost. 8: Alec clapping. Larry: *stopping it* Don't you clap your hands!! Me: Larry's right. That's not doing Yugioh justice.
16:52 Joeys hair is not "a little bit" different lmao it was at least 6 months to a year between them shooting joey winning the tournament and yugi dueling kaiba, which "canoncally" is happening back to back that is so funny This was an awesome video
I think there is a harshness here that the video doesn't deserve.... it's a fan film done in 2005..... Fan film AND 2005 should give it a pass for a lot of things....
I’ve commented a few times but that actually happened in the middle of the island in the manga but got removed in the anime. Joey says “You may be pretty good at cards but I’m pretty good with my fists” or something similar in the manga after Joey beats him down.
That was an amazing movie! Glad you guys found it and shared it with us. Also as a kid I LOVED Silver Fang and to my knowledge this is the first time he ever destroyed another monster so it was worth it for that alone
Actually pretty consistent with live action adaptations. All it needs is a bigger budget and some action spectacle and it'd be on par with Netflix Avatar.
I heckin love that when Bandit Keith tried to beat up Joey, Joey beat up Bandit Keith instead because that actually happens in the middle of duelist kingdom in the manga and it got changed in the anime! That was rad that THIS of all things had a more manga accurate tough Joey than the anime LOL
That ain't Mai Valentine ... aside from being blond and being a woman they have nothing in common. But I guess getting an actress that looks super model level good was not in the budget. But then why add Mai in the first place? Why not someone else? Also wow, the "You ready to duel me?" sounded like "You ready to do me?" and gave me serious boy love vibes. The MILLENIAL puzzle... only us MILLENIALS can wear it!
It actually wasn't too bad to film. Stephen Groo is a fascinating person to be around. I remember seeing the girl dressed in black (during the competition) on my college campus a few months after filming, and we had a laugh about it. I wonder if she ever saw the finished thing.
Is it too late for this movie to win an Oscar? This was the definition of Yugioh cinema!
If you loved this they also made a music video to

Maybe a series where you review other live action Yugioh series.
maybe react to other yugioh fan duels
i for one would love to see you react to xtevenschannel

Fr i found a couple dvd volumes of yugioh there,
I just wish you could pay Tubi to get rid of all the ads. The service would be top notch if you could.
@@chaocobojun2098 man the ads aint a big deal, it makes it feel lkkw normal cable tv

And considering it's from 2005 it gets even more impressive.
But it's still so so bad
I'm watching the whole thing and it's it's honestly really growing on me
Love how the actors were actually using card sleeves 😂
The uncensored f-bomb at the beginning threw me off so hard lmao
I feel like the guy who plays Yugi is literally like “wtf am I doing here”
Meby he thought it was porn flim ha
To be fair I wouldn't want to wear that wig either
He was trying hard to be cold and cool like Yami.... except without the energy.... but to be fair, that'd be hard...
Literally the man who wrote, produced and directed the film
that's the director, he;s the one who wrote and filmed it lmao. he absolutely wanted ot be there
The YU-GI-OH! live action film we needed.
The Tea vs Mai duel served the purpose of having Joey learn about the tournament against Bandit Keith, come on guys it's storytelling 101
You must be joking right
The most accurate part about this was that Tea was undefeated in it
Tbh they also got another thing right. When Bandit Keith tried to beat up Joey but Joey beat up Bandit Keith instead, that was actually in the manga in the middle of the island and it got changed in the anime. It’s wild that this of all things retained a manga tough Joey better than the anime lol
@@chaocobojun2098Joey and Tristan are canonically badass
And still hot! Lol
This should be shown in theaters 🎥🔥
Nah frfr 🙃
For a second i thought tristan was a dr who character before he faced the camera
Doggone it!
Tristan = Tenth Doctor
Cannot unsee!!
@@gamegab7271well they can both travel through time, and their hair gel defies the laws of physics and gravity, easy mistake getting them mixed up
He did look like David Tennant's 10th Doctor
The moment I saw the blue eyes I started cackling 😭, something about it idk just felt off 😭
To be fair.... it's a fan film..... from 2005.....
Blu eye whit dargon, the lesser known cousin of blue-eyes

"he looked like he came out of a curved puzzle" 😂😂😂
Weevile has a green jacket with a popped collar and finger-less gloves.... ugh my immersion!

No way😂
😭
There’s quite a few of these strange cosplay duel episodes on TH-cam
I was genuinely entertained by this movie. I like how they had practical 2000s decks.
I like how they portrayed Yugi as someone who needs his friends in place of family.
This is a story about the weird goth kid and his friends caught up in duel monsters mania. No more, no less.
Tubi or not Tubi
Well its clearly Tubi
🤔
13:55 Yusei and Domino City would be proud.
16:29 the Celtic Guardian from wish broke me 🤣🤣
In another universe, this is what took off and got Yugioh popular in the mainstream
This wasn't your introduction to Yu-Gi-Oh?
" Tristan doesn't do anything he just support "
Pretty much he did nothing in the anime either
I think he duels a single time in the virtual world filler.... the first one. Where he doesn't become trapped inside a robot monkey.
Oh god it's so painful to get through this. The acting is some 18+ video level stuff.
Very painful
To be fair.... it's a fan film..... from 2005.....
It has a charm of people just doing it for fun....
@@TheDeathmailI mean at least it coming out in 2005 at least makes it passable
"I'm not at the beach, Mako, this is a card game."
They got the Dark magician design so bad 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Why does Bandit Keith look like
The Act Man 😭😭😭
This is where he got his acting chops
I don't think Triston ever appeared in this movie, glad they got the tenth doctor though.
This is wild. Is it just me or does Yugi just looked stoned most of the time? That wig too… what the heck.
More evidence that it was Elon Musk in a wig.
I was expecting this to turn into XXX flick at any moment
We sure that's Tristan and not Looker from Pokemon?
The true yugioh season 0 we always wanted😂😂
Wow…I needed a good laugh today.
Why is Grandpa looking like a knock off Professor from Tolarian Community College though?
Many Tolarian Community College viewers ask the question: “what was I drinking?”
This feels like more of a drug trip than Season 0

I watched the first episode before work today and I'm already interested. Thank you! I hope the Team gives it a try as well!
The actor playing Seto really tried to get the voice right. 5/7 Takahashi would be proud.
3000/3000
3000/2500
" 5/7"
I understood that reference.
To be fair, poking fun aside- the actual anime does the monologue thing really long winded half the time as well. Especially in the DM era haha.
lol I love these werid yugioh cosplay duels
"DON'T YOU CLAP YOUR HANDS!" hahahaha
Literally tho I feel like a lot of YGO fans don’t even know this movie actually exists
But this should be in theaters or something
Stephen Groo is a legend. If you're into those "so bad it's good" movies than his stuff is a goldmine.
I still can't believe how many things he has done. And still doing. His poor family, tho...
Those effects were amazing, was disappointed that Exodia didn’t look stupid
I was really impressed with exodia honestly. Made the entire movie just to see that fanart lmao
And yet somehow, it's still a better adaptation than dragon ball evolution
I think the greatest Hollywood story ever would be if someone wrote an incredible adaptation, cast the same guy as Goku, and it makes buttloads of money
Tubi is like the digital version of a Pharmacy or Dollar Store DVD bargain bin. You'll drift through a sea of crap before finding some good stuff, and if you're really lucky, you'll find disastrous gems like this!
that Joey is from the British part of Brooklyn.
More like the Salt Lake part.
Haha in my defense, accents never really came easy to me. I think I watched the first episode before we started filming to try to understand how he talked. It just ended up being a bad Boston/Chicago accent I think.
20:16 idk what it is about this scene but the Kaiba actor was giving it his all lmao
I love that Yugi is the only one with anime hair. It makes him look even more off lol
Edit: Omg i love Joey. That man is going for it
:D Hey, thanks!

What in that ever loving ,gods green earthbaby mama drama triplet having, wanna get arrested mess is this...lmao
The acting in this video really seemed straight out of an 18+ parody video, but then they delivered a much different movie. Rofl.
My favorite parts of this videos:
1. Larry and Alec: "Five Hundred Thousand Dollars." Made me say it with them.
2. Raigeki. Fake Mai: "Regayki." Alec: Let's not pronounce it like that.

4. Weevil = Nerdy Draco Malfoy Thanks, Alec. Now I can't unsee Harry Potter and and a Yugioh Crossover. XDD
5. Joey punches Bandit Keith. Larry laughing hard. Best moment of this video.
6. Silver Fang Vaping Attack
7: The Yugi losing faith. Alec laughing his butt of the chair almost.
8: Alec clapping. Larry: *stopping it* Don't you clap your hands!! Me: Larry's right. That's not doing Yugioh justice.
still has more soul than live action Avatar.
"Kaiba only talks with his mouth" LMAO
Nah I would not have watched or enjoyed this without yall commentery. Mystery science theatre 3000 eat your heart out
16:52 Joeys hair is not "a little bit" different lmao it was at least 6 months to a year between them shooting joey winning the tournament and yugi dueling kaiba, which "canoncally" is happening back to back that is so funny
This was an awesome video
I was just glad Stephen didn't require me to cut my hair for that part. I was growing it out for a while.
This is like a nostalgia critic film except made with love
For as bad as it is and for 2005 I kinda respect it
That intro looks like a budget porno movie 😂
My boi joey not playing with cards in this version hes playing with his hands 😂
Tristan looks like someone trying to cosplay as the 10th Doctor
This is the Netflix adaptation before they put in special effects
🤣
Grandpa Yugi looks like they just got a homeless dude to read some lines real quick 😂
Loved how Larry lost it when Joey punched Keith lol.
Watched the whole movie because of this. I love that it's on tubi. I really liked how then melded plots to still tell the first main story.
Shhhh quiet down front I’m missing this incredible dialogue and acting performance 🎭 😂
Telling my kids this is what the card game was based on
This movie legit is like if Tommy Wiseau made a Yu-Gi-Oh! and I love it so much because of that lmao
I think there is a harshness here that the video doesn't deserve.... it's a fan film done in 2005.....
Fan film AND 2005 should give it a pass for a lot of things....
Doesn’t make it not God awful
I think we actually filmed it in 2003. But i still cringe listening to my accent.
Was this a school project? Cause it feels like it was.
Check out the Stephen Groo's (Yugi and the director of the film) entire filmography. It's buck wild, he's been doing this for decades
Lmao that joey fight
I’ve commented a few times but that actually happened in the middle of the island in the manga but got removed in the anime. Joey says “You may be pretty good at cards but I’m pretty good with my fists” or something similar in the manga after Joey beats him down.
