ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 พ.ย. 2022
- Jaby and Syntell watch the 2004 teen classic Mean Girls and are surprised that they actually enjoyed it A LOT! Mean girls is writing by the comedy legend Tina Fey and stars a young Lindsay Lohan, Rachel McAdams, Amanda Seyfried, Lacey Chabert and Lizzy Caplan. As well as an excellent adult comedy supporting cast in Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Tim Meadows, Neil Flynn and Ana Gasteyer. While a movie like this probably couldn't be made today, it's held up really well nearly 20 years after it's release. What other 90's/ early 2000's movies should we watch next?

the fact that regina thought being lebenese meant lesbian lol
I NEVER CAUGHT THAT
Huh
Holy crap I never made that connection!
Think that's a leap, as not stated specifically in the movie, but that does sound very possible.
Fr 😂
Rachel McAdams acted both Mean girls and the notebook the same year! That's RANGE 👌🏼
and wore one of the best hollywood wigs I've ever seen to hide her short red hair from filming the notebook.
@@vitamins00 I know right Best wig ever indeed looked perfectly natural!
WHAT?
Exactly yes🤣😂😂
I remember sitting through the Notebook wondering “where have I seen this girl before??”. It was driving me nuts until it hit me right in the middle of the movie and I whispered really loud to the friends I was with “That’s Regina George!!” A bunch of others giggled around us but then I heard a few others go “Oh my god, it is!!”🤣
I have no idea why people find satirical humour uncomfortable, it's intentionally written to point out societal flaws and biases. There's nothing wrong with finding it funny
I agree 💯 saw this a lot here
Because it can sometimes be hard to know when a joke is satirical. If I don't know enough background about the person presenting the joke, I don't know who we are laughing with. Are we laughing with the abusers or the victims?
@@SipMyCharlattethat’s a good point, I usually go by what happens to the character. Are they praised for it or admonished? Is the story promoting it or criticizing?
That’s why something like it’s always sunny works so well. The characters say and do insane things but they get consequences and shown how ignorant they are
@@Pkelly730 exactly! The reason it's always sunny is funny is because they're all idiots at the end of the day. And they have no problem showing that! It's also good about pointing out biases the audience might have, and how those biases affect others.
"Danny Devito I love your work 🏃" gets me everytime. 😂😂
me too, it's my favorite!
I swear that line had to be ad libbed. There's no way anyone came up with that on purpose.
@@mycroft16 yeah, it was
It kills me everytime i watch the movie hahahah
It's such a throwaway joke. But it was my favorite for years and years.
I love how Syntell makes fun of Jaby with the table of Asian nerds and Jaby tells him to shut up and then proceeds to drink from an Avengers mug.
Good friendships are when you can tell each other stfu lol
😂
Having an Avengers cup is being a nerd?
I thought the exact same thing😂😂
@@KartikayKaul In 2004, yes it did. Iron Man didn't release until 2008 and the first Avengers premiered in 2012. Even today, Avengers is accepted as general pop culture within the realm of the films. Extend your interest beyond that with getting into the games, comics, merchandise, cosplaying, etc., and the general population lumps you right back into that nerd category.
i think the "i'm a cool mom" bit was good for the amy poehler character it made her funny but it also made sense why regina got away with all the stuff she did
Oh there are mothers like that in real life out there.
They show the little sister being completely patented by trashy reality TV in the background and it makes me sad 😅
@@corneliastreet2491Not to mention her little sister's name is KYLIE... hmmm who else do we know that was raised and patented in reality tv named Kylie 🤔
Tim Meadows actually broke his wrist a week before they started filming and thought they'd have to replace him, but Tina Fey was like "nah we'll just put a joke in there about you having carpal tunnel"
One of the joke that always gets me is the “I don't hate you because you're fat, you're fat because I hate you”
1.) I can't believe there is anyone on this planet that hasn't seen this movie.
2.) It is crazy entertaining to watch someone watch this for the first time.
I mean hey, as a teenager rn a lot of people who have strict parents have not seen it!
Though special case for me cause my step-mom once randomly put it on as I pretended to not watch it. I was like 9 at the time haha
I know….I kinda think that’s bs…
you do know they're not serious right?-@@rachellejones6254
I went to an all girls catholic high school and not only was this movie quoted all the time, the tropes and overall story actually helped mend some friendships. Very much chalk full of teachable moments as long as you are open to receiving them
Lol I was just about to ask if you like the film “Cruel Intentions” bc it’s centered around Catholic private school kids then I saw your name is Katherine like Kathryn in the movie haha. Whoa and typing this I just had a revelation… did they name her Kathryn, like “Catholic” that’s kinda twisted sorry I’m really stoned
Yeah went to an all girls school and it's x10 times worse then this movie 😂😂
My year made a burn book instead 🤡
Yeah my school was against cliques too because we didnt want to be "those girls" that saw others as competition.
In regards to where in Africa she was.... She greets the table of Black kids with “Jambo” which is a Swahili greeting (that is hardly ever used except by/to tourists 🙄), and Swahili is mostly spoken in Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Based on the landscape in the pictures, I’m gonna go with Tanzania or Kenya. 👍
Also, the impact this movie has had in pop-culture is insane. My 7yr old son has never seen it, but he was playing Halo with his brother the other day, pulled up next to his character in a Warthog, and said “Get in, loser. We’re going SHOPPING!” 😂
I love how that meme is still around
On top of the “can’t sit with us”meme
that's some good geoguessr there
I think the musical mentions that is in Kenya as well! :)
@@nescirian I lived in Kenya for two years, lol
The scene with the loaf of bread, she cuts off a tiny piece that you think she’ll eat but instead eats the whole ass loaf 💀
Timestamp?

@@saipan6704 lol never noticed that!
Wow, we all were so focused on the conversation and gossip that most of us never noticed that detail.
As someone said once, this is one of the most quotable movies ever. I have watched it so many times, I still love it. And Jaby is so right about the social commentary in the movie.
This movie is iconic. The writing is brilliant. It will hold up for eternity.
I watched this with my friends at a sleepover when we were 14. When Regin was standing in the middle of the road several of us said she was going to get hit by a car. We lost our shit when it actually happened, it was so funny
@vivienmcnab4511 i’m 12 and i watched it by myself for the first time not to long ago i was dying of laughter while watching it but you were so lucky to watch it with friends cause that must’ve been even funnier.
"... the nerd asians"
- Hey, you got a table there homie!
- Oh, shut up.
*Picks up a captain america muggle*
On point guys 👌
Tina Fey wrote the screen play based upon the book "Queen Bees and Wannabes" by Rosalind Wiseman. The book is a psychological analysis of teen girls & their cliques.
In the book, the author mentions her studies show many "popular" kids have been coached by their parents to be popular--as parents coach their kids in what is important to them. That is the origin of the younger sister mimicking "Girls Gone Wild". Her mom is coaching her.
I read this book when my daughter was very young. When my daughter was in a 5-7 year old tumbling class, another mom vented her frustration with her daughter's progress. She needed her daughter to be a varsity cheerleader (she's 5 at this conversation), and the girl couldn't figure out how to do a cartwheel. Mom was very frustrated, because this was the 2nd gym she's take her 5 year old to, & she still wasn't learning to do a cartwheel. Then, she laughed & said she didn't think her daughter liked hurling herself across the floor, but she needed to be a varsity cheerleader. As she walked away, everyone else just watched after her, dumbfounded.
I thought about this book mentioning that parents teach their kids to be popular, if the parent deems it important.
My grandma got me that book when it came out since I was going through puberty and was about to enter middle school. Then we saw Mean Girls in theaters when it came out. That's crazy about the mom you mentioned. I'll never understand those kind of parents.
this is such an usa thing lol
I recently learned that in bee hives workers create queen bees by feeding them certain nutrients. So it makes sense that parents are the ones who foster this behavior in people.
@@Gabi-nn6xu yeaaahhhh... no other cultures have parents that put unrealistic expectations on their children......
@@KaiLucasZacharyI mean.... when it comes to turning their kids to "popular", I'd say that
"That is so fetch!"
"Gretchen, stop making fetch happen! It's not going to happen."
“It’s like I’ve got espn.” So many iconic lines
Tina fey is a genius for writing this movie after all those years it's still iconic
I was a teenage girl when I watched this movie. My high school didn't really have cliques and even if it kinda did, I was kinda in the weird nerdy category. STILL, I actually got so much from this movie. How I normalized so many passive aggresive behaviour. How much I talked behind my friends' backs even though I wasn't the gossiping type. So many stuff was just normalized girl stuff in my head. This kinda opened my eyes
For some reason, I just assumed that every American would have seen this movie before adulthood 😂
I mean that’s just the rules of feminism.
I am 34 and therefore “came of age” alongside this movie. It is the MOST quoted movie, hands down, between my friends and coworkers my age. There was something super magical about the adultness of the humor in a movie made for us as teenagers, and it managed to hang on to a PG-13 rating which meant that for once, I was allowed to watch along with my friends.
I agree with you by saying that there is a lesson in the movie, I think if you aren’t a woman or a teenage girl then it’s so easy to write this movie off as just humour but there’s actually a lot of lessons for young girls by watching this. Because sadly some parts are accurate, with how a lot of young woman talk and bitch about each other and call each other names like slut and putting down peoples appearance because it’s so normalised. I feel like there’s a very clear message in this movie that I don’t see how it’s hard to miss, because the whole point in realising that that is wrong and doing that won’t make you any better.
I think this WOULD be good even today. The jokes aren't racist, they're funny because they make fun of how racist the characters are.
I understand your message, but I would disagree that the characters are racist. Two main ingredients of racism are (1) intent (2) race-based antagonism (direct or indirect). I didn't see any of that here. Example 1: Assuming the lunch table of black people understood Swahili is discriminatory, but not racist - there's no intent to insult. Example 2: Calling a small group of actually nerdy Asians - "Asian nerds" - is a label, but it's neither racist nor discriminatory. The kids recognized that all (or most) of the people at that lunch table were both Asian and nerdy. If you can find an example in the movie of actual racism, I'm open to hearing your point.
@@tuttleberryi would disagree that intent has any bearing on whether something is racist in its impact. racism is a messy, irrational, and socially coded phenomen that is deeply embedded in american culture-it’s not a collection of isolated incidents but the product of centuries of oppression. i think your standards over-rationalize it. if you say a black person looks like a monkey, maybe your intention isn’t for it to be racist, but it’s an insult that is based in a culture that is racist; it’s the product of decades of portraying black people as primates/subhuman. ignorance doesn’t excuse impact.
@@jimmiejam508don’t forget Europeans were enslaved & oppressed by Africans for centuries as well….
Imo slavery would never have been ended if the globally dominant powers were from the Middle Eastern, Asian or African regions….
The characters aren't racist. OMG when will millennials all please go in a quiet corner and leave everyone alone.
Decades huh? You're so intelligent. @@jimmiejam508 🙄
36:16 You are exatcly right, sir! In a reunion video Tina Fey said she wanted the guy to play that part no matter what so even when he had injured his arm she just changed the script so that he could have played the role anyway. Awesome you thought of that! I never did.
House :D
Their laughs are too contagious, it was fun to watch again
i always assumed her saying africa instead of a specific country was because they traveled....
also! my godfather was mentioned in this movie so it has a special place in my heart ♥ ("but you love ladysmith black mambazo" - my godfather was founder and leader of ladysmith)
You are correct, Tim was cast in the movie Tina Fey wrote it with him in mind then after he was cast he hurt himself and said I’m sorry if you have to recast I get it, Tina said no cus it was meant for you so they throw in that line to explain it away, but wasn’t in the first draft of the script
Lmao I was at a hotel with the fam, 11 years old, and my cousin had a guest, and since she was the guest, the girls got to pick the movie, Mean girls. The boys were pissed, until we started watching the movie lmao this is one of the best comedies of this century 😂
That’s crazy gen alpha are watching this movie? It’s really popular across THREE generations wow
@@nihilisticprophet6985 no I’m 30 now 😂 this was when it was new 🤣
fun fact the scene where the guy gets hit in the face with the radio during their christmas performance is real. like he actually took a radio to the face lmao
Jaby has such a contagious laugh, I laugh automatically when he does 😂
I don't think I've ever met a person, man or woman, who has seen this and not liked it. Easy A is another movie like this that people really like too.
"You're gonna answer to a higher power!"
"Tom Cruise?"
The Danny Devito line gets me everytime i watch it. iconic
Mean Girls is a classic for people who were in middle/high school in the mid 2000's. Like the movie was heightened for comedy/entertainment obviously, but yeah Mean Girls was basically a time capsule of my high school experience. They even showed us the movie at an assembly to talk about the lessons you're supposed to take from the movie. Mean Girls is so so so good and yeah other than cringing at some of the lines that aren't really PC anymore, it holds up INCREDIBLY well. 100% like Jaby said, the movie didn't single handedly fix kids who watched it at the time over night. It trojan horsed the nuggets of life lessons into our brains and planted the seeds and in hindsight a lot of millennials owe their ability to point out things that were and are "problematic" and what not back to Mean Girls. I'm very curious what movie or show today is having this level of impact on Gen Z. I'd maybe argue Euphoria is that for them in a way.
Gen z were also fans of this movie growing up
oh this is gonna be good, this movie is absolutely iconic.
exactly what I said in my head lol
I cannot believe this movie is almost 20 years old. It doesn’t feel that old! It’s always been one of my favorites I still laugh as hard as I did when I was a kid 😂 aged well but definitely has some things you wouldn’t see today.
You still missed that she cuts a small piece of the loaf of bread but precedes to eat the bigger portion
Love the react! Jaby's review was really sensitive, I really enjoyed it, the movie itself is comedy, but for girls/gays specially of my age, that movie was game changing, I can assure you that. Few were the "teen" movies were the focus wasn't only on high school boys trying to have sex, and almost none had revelant gay characters. Mean Girls uses the plastic girls theme to make you laugh, but also have really interesting characters. Even the "bad jokes" are there but with objetive, it is not there just to make fun but also to show how stupid the plastics and even teachers can be.
It's a "basic" movie but also, a really important one.
The reason why the Principals hand was messed up throughout the movie is because the actor genuinely did get injured but they already signed him on and he wanted to do it with a broken hand hahaha I think it adds to the charm of the film, the way it's never explained lol
It is a cult classic it has a lot of memorable scenes in it it was an instant classic as soon as it came out. I loved it
This movie will never get old. I am 47 and I am still obsessed. The amount of accessories /merch I have is unreal. Glittery pens with all the sayings, mean girls socks, I even have a poster in my spare bedroom with all of the quotes, Multiple tees, including one that says I’m not a regular mom. I’m a cool mom ,and then I have the one says she doesn’t even go here. Oh, and then of course I have the one saying So Fetch and another that says you go Glen coco…. So I guess you can say I love the movie a bit lol My own family knows most of the words to the movie now because of how much I have it on. I’m just a little fun fact, I love that Tina fey is from my neighborhood of upper Darby.PA… ok I’m done rambling, sorry, I just LOVE this movie!
I want to be like you when I grow up
No matter how many times I have already seen this movie, whenever it's on I stop and watch it again. It's iconic!
Yes, the actor playing the principle actually had an injury and they just wrote it into the script.
This was such a fun movie! Tim Meadows was great in this small role, all his lines landed perfectly. The south side comment is bc it's set in a wealthy Chicago suburb and here he is fighting violence in his preppy ass school 😅
You can laugh about something while still realizing it's problematic and should not happen in real life. That's the joy of humor and literature. You can explore the shit that you would never want to happen to a real life person. As long as you punch sideways or up, you can not go wrong.
I needed a pick me up today and stumbled across this video. Thank you so much for the great reactions and the wonderful discussion afterwards!
the reason this movie has so many nuggets of wisdom in it is probably because its based off of a non fiction parenting sort of self help book called queen bees and wannabes. Tina Fey took that great book and just ran with it!
The fact this movie is based on a real school in america. We studied it in adolescent psychology and the actual school was way worse
This guy's laughter is too good 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh damn this movie is so good. Anyone can watch this and get a good laugh out of it. Classic. Surprisingly relatable at any age, and just fun. I don't know how anyone kept a straight face on this film. It had to be so much fun to make.
Yesss! I am so glad you picked this Jaby! This movie is literally legendary 💅🔥
Hey Jaby, this movie is a classic bro. Still one of my favorites, FUGLY very quickly became a thing.
Wait fugly came from this ??? DAMN
No Fugly was around before. I was using fugly in high school in the 90s.
Fugly has been around since at least the 90s
Jaby's laugh is so contagious! lol
The cackling throughout the movie. I love it 😍
The irony that a version of it is now in the theatres 😂
Just found this channel and I love how much you guys enjoyed this movie 😂😂
hey dudes this came out of nowhere but it's been a long time since i laughed so hard, thanks for the good job
I love this movie so much. It’s such a classic and it’s got so many funny lines. It never gets old!
Tim Meadows actually broke their hand while riding their motorcycle right before filming and Tina Fey just wrote in the script that they had carpal tunnel since they had a cast on.
Omg Gold 😂 Absolutely loved this movie growing up and I used to have one person during my high school days say i reminded them of the indian looking guy in the movie 😂
early 2000s chick flicks are something else honest, and i love them. so. darn. much.
She’s the man is so funny
This was fun to watch. Like watching a movie you love with friends who have never seen it before and waiting for their reactions. Loved it.
Lindsay Lohan and Amanda Seyfried were 17 when they made this movie so I found it funny when you said actual children when the Junior plastics showed up at the end of the story.
Lindsay was 18, Amanda was 19. Get your facts right.
@@summerrose8110 It was filmed from September 2023 to November 2023. Lindsay Lohan was born in July 1986. That means she was 17 when the filming of the movie took place. Amanda Seyfried was born in December 1985 so that means she didn’t turn 18 until after the movie finished filming. Get your facts right.
@@AlfonsoEspina I did, condescending jerk.
I've seen this movie a couple of times, but watching it again with youade me appreciate it finally. Great discussion, dudes!
It’s wild to me that he said the workshop part was super unrealistic. I experienced at least 3 in highschool, and they were insanely similar to the one in the movie 😂
i feel like boys cant understand it fully 😂 they never seem have the crazy clique issues us girls do as teens so they never had a workshop but we girls know it’s extremely realistic
Okay but Cady’s Halloween costume wasn’t even bad I loved it , if she just took out the creepy teeth people could understand her💀
My mom was "that kind of mom" lol. It WAS weird but fortunately expected since I grew up with the woman :)
Your mom would interrupt your makeout sessions?! 😬
Man this move makes a Lindsay Lohan comeback in the way we are seeing Brenden Frazier and Keanu! She was so good and so cute and at the top of the game…then society destroyed her by turning our backs on her, pointing and laughing, etc all instead of helping her and being sympathetic/empathetic
This was a great reaction, loved you both and having the varied reactions.
I would suggest making a separate category for film reactions, just because I’ve just had a scroll of your videos and am struggling to find things to watch since I don’t follow the shows you’re reacting to.
But overall great reaction guys, appreciate your time and effort x
Tina Fey wrote the movie inspired by her own experience in high school with girls. That's why it can be relatable.
Actually she wrote the screen play based upon a book -- "Queen Bees and Wannabes" by Rosalind Wiseman.
@@kathyp1563 true(regarding the book)so but I grew up in and still live in the neighborhood Tina Fey grew up in. Upper Darby,Pa, . So it’s definitely not far fetched . She went to the public school on the same block as my all girls catholic high school( not sure what years but that beside the point). So I guess the point of my rambling is that yes it is based on a book, but the girls in the movie are girls we could find around here ( then again I’m sure they’re found everywhere).. oh well, great movie either way 😀
I was not expecting this video but it's awesome😂
Omg Jaby I live you so much right now. This movie is ICONIC. I'm gonna grab some snacks.
The final song is “Halcyon and in and on” by Orbital. It was also in “Hackers” movie. A legendary track ❤
Just stumbled upon you guys and HAD to watch this. Great reaction although people over-analyze the jokes as being because the movie is "old" now. The jokes in there are in there for a reason. The stereotypes were purposeful. I mean, come on, Regina saying she couldn't invite a 12 year old Janis to her Bday party because girls might be in their bathing suits?? Trust me, in 2004 we all knew that's a stereotype. But that's how teens talk, hell, some adults still talk that way among friends at the least. Back then we could tell what was a joke, though, compared to today. It's okay to laugh at these jokes and find humor in old tropes and stereotypes.
Watching jaby cackle at this was a highlight. Just awesome
I can’t describe just how happy it makes me to watch two men watch this 😂😂
Oh the little girl watching Girls Gone Wild was VERY risky back then. I was in college when this came out and it was shocking. it was supposed to be. It was supposed to make you think. And it works. Which is why it survives. It wasn't just to be a gross joke, it had a point and purpose.
BTW Lacey Chabert is currently a Hallmark movie darling, but got her start as a child on Party of Five!
She was in black Christmas 2006
I also like her in Black Christmas.
Mean Girls will always be a classic!
Great catch! Tim Meadows broke his wrist a week before filming started! He was required to wear a cast so they wrote the injury into the movie as carpal tunnel syndrome.
Dude your laugh is therapeutic 🤣
An absolute masterpiece. This movie is my desert island movie.
I completely get your perspective of the depth to some of the "lessons" , i def agree with you👏👏👏👏👏👏
The song Halcyon (and on and on) by Orbital was indeed used in Mortal Kombat but also at the start of Hackers (1995). Hackers is my ultimate "glimpse of the 90s" movie. Just has such a 90s feel to it with an epic electronic soundtrack.
Enjoying how much it's making you guys laugh 😂
Watching you guys talk about how it couldn’t be in theatres now when the new musical version is out in theatres right now is so funny
ya but the new musical version is all woke and stupid and doesn’t have any of the funny stuff. it tries so hard to not offend anyone it’s so stupid it’s like the kids bop version
Can I say as a teen watching this definitely made me think deeper about how I treat people
Seen this movie tons of times, watching it with y'all was hilarious!!
I think this movie is genius in the way it manages to be both legitimate and a parody. Like it's a legitimate movie for the female YA sort of surface demographic. But for others outside that audience it comes across as parodying the genre and can be entertaining in that respect.
One of my all time favorite movies! So glad you gave it a shot and enjoyed it! Tina wrote a great film!
Please Jaby, do more of these early 2000s movies.
It's funnier now watching it as an adult than when I watched it as a teen a few years after this was released.
Watched this hoping you noticed it was the Mortal Kombat song too. That MK movie was my life as a kid. When I finally seen this movie I thought "this isn't a bad movie". Then at the end when that song came on, it gave me so many feelings. I thought it was amazing that they used the song, and how it's going to reach a different audience and generation.
Iconic film. Love ❤❤❤
Happy thanksgiving!
all main male cast here has come out. Now thats iconic
Tim Meadows is gay? Dope
I don't understand why everyone says a movie like this wouldn't work today. Just a couple of years ago we had a mainstream comedy about a kid with hitler as his imaginary friend.
agreed
Exactly
Thats exactly why it wouldnt work. Too many snowflakes and people obsessed with cancel culture lmao
@@parnellomello Only in echochambers like right-wing victim culture. In the real world, no one cares. Always Sunny is more offensive on a weekly basis and no one says shit.
it wouldn’t bc people are so damn sensitive
in the mean girls musical remake, they took out coach car sleeping with students, took out the rumor about janice being a lesbian and just made her a lesbian, took out the iconic part where they show the different tables at lunch (asian nerds, cool asians, unfriendly black hotties, sexually active band geeks)
so lame. can’t do anything fun or true anymore bc of fear of getting cancelled
As someone born in early 2000s a lot of generation Z love this movie and it’s definitely something I go back to. I don’t like American Pie at all
Nice catch on that song at the end. Def in Mortal Kombat. It’s a classic by Orbital called Halcyon and On and On.
Tina Fey has sole credit for the screenplay. It is based on a nonfiction book, though.
I'm envious of you guys. I wish I could watch MG for the first time again
