How are y'all possibly interpreting my comment that the SpongeBob Movie and Polar Express came out in 2004 as a diss? Did I say a single negative thing about either of them? Please explain
I think it's the was you worded it. When you said about how it was the worst movie dreamworks was put out. What you kind of meant was "This movie, on the year the spongebob movie and the polar express came out was determined by the institute..." etc. The "this movie" between "came out" and "was" might of confused people, since it seemed that you ended the sentence, where it's just your dialect. Hope this helps.
This triggered memories of sitting in ASP during the teacher faculty meetings days in January and them rolling out The Television and just hearing “wOrKiNg at tHe cAr wAsH”
@@plushy_doctor2299 Agreed. You know Gemini Man? The other movie Will Smith played in? Yeah so I remember the movie being funny and terrible to the point were my older brother and cousin started roasting the CGI Will Smith and Will Smith himself. Which they were loud ENOUGH for the entire audience to hear and laugh. I laughed to don’t worry I didn’t like that movie.
There’s no doom syndicates, there’s no Megamind Rules, and there’s no theatrical sequel. Ok for real though I count this as DreamWorks 45th movie while KFP 4 is 46th
I just wanted to say the reason the dialogue is so natural and probably why it’s so weird is because they filmed almost all the character interactions with the voice actors in the same room and a lot of improv was involved. The movie was essentially a big joke. The reason Martin Scorsese is a pufferfish in this movie is because someone in the creative team thought “imagine if Martin Scorsese agreed to this” so he showed him concept art of the character and he thought it was hilarious so he agreed.
I love it in animation where characters VA’s record in the same room. It just makes the preformance more realistic movies like Rango go the extra mile by having the actors preform like it’s a live action film
28:11-29:02 My mom actually figured that out. The sharks never said they'd stop eating fish & that reef is not the only fishing spot in the ocean. The sharks didn't stop eating fish, they just stopped eating fish from that reef. Edit: My Mom's a genius
Honestly sexy fish is one of the best characters because she’s very upfront with her motivations instead of being clingy or stupid or a pathological liar.
I don't know man, just because a character acknowledges that they're terrible doesn't mean it automatically makes it better. She's still a predictable annoyance throughout the film. If they actually DID something funny with her abuse, then maybe, but they don't do that.
What? If anything that makes her one of the WORST characters. She acknowledges that her motivations are garbage and she continues to be garbage anyways. Oscar is a dumbass but he truly thought that a ride to fame was automatically a good thing and lo and behold, sexy fish girl wanted him to believe it, since, yknow, she was the toxic person in the relationship. That’s like, the worst kind of person
Plus, her character works because Oscar is too stupid to realize shes superficial or just too obsessed with being somebody or whatever. I actually liked that they made her upfront "iam a goldigger" trait. Saved me the really bad character writing i couldve seen instead. I do admit her revenge plot was pretty lame. They couldve done better.
20:18 >"This is a movie so desperately wants to be Shrek. So much so that half of its title is just an anagram for Shrak." Frillas, you fool. The full title is an anagram for 'A Shrek Alt'.
Can we Get 1000 subscribers without any videos FUN FACT: Will Smith actually *did* win a Kids Choice Award for voicing Oscar in this movie, beating three of the main actors from Shrek 2.
It's not a problem if a protagonist has flaws or makes mistakes but they usually have some qualities, motivations that explain why he/she acts like this, an entertaining story and a character development. All of these things in Oscar's case are pretty weak. On the YMMV page of the movie on TvTropes Oscar is also classified as Designated Hero and Unintentionally Unsympathetic, despite the character page tells us he's the Hero, albeit an Idiot one (and also a Jerk with a Heart of Gold)
I laugh at the number of idiots who call out Oscar not being a good person bad writing when they want a typical 1 dimensional good guy trope. Like I'm sorry but thats the polar opposite of good writing.
Yeah, like how Ainz Ooal Gown and Lelouch are the protagonists, besides the fact that Ainz is the definition of pure evil (he's larping a supervillain) and Lelouch is just, well he's done a ton of really dark things and has mind control powers, which in my opinion is one of the most immoral and evil things you can do to someone.
Well to be fair, that’s just the critics. The audience scores for the Pokémon movies are higher than both the critic score and the audience score for shark tale.
Back then? No, because it was relevant. Popular stars voice acting at the time, decent animation for the time (despite how ugly and grungy it looks) like of course people were going to like it. The problem was that it immediately dated itself by using pop culture to be hip with the kids. That's what cemented its downfall.
It's a horrible movie, that doesn't mean you aren't allowed to love every minute of it. The plot is nonsensical, the universe it's built in is slipshot and not thought out, the plot relies on loud screaming to prevent anyone from quietly asking what the fuck is going on and why everyone is believing that one CLEANER WRASSE somehow managed to kill A SHARK. The things they literally swim into the mouths of to clean the gunk out from between their teeth. THis movie was entirely awful. It also is hilarious to many people, and that's perfectly ok. I love Awful Games Block at GDQ and Kuso games in general, unironically. There is nothing wrong with loving something that is objectively bad, because sometimes the worst things just hit the right nerves to be enjoyable.
@@CassidyStarke That's a good question! Maybe watch some other movies about fish and the ocean for comparison, including comedies like The INcredible Mr Limpet, which involved a man turning into a cartoon fish and blowing up Nazi submarines by screaming angrily at them. You know, movies that are actually fun for everyone who watches them instead of just for the youngest members of the audience.
What's actually kinda sad is that I find Lenny's story pretty interesting, at least more so than Oscars, and it honestly should've been the main focus. A vegetarian shark runs away from his home to live in a fish society under a disguise. He gets along fine, then Oscar, who is a social outcast and egotistical asshole, can be the antagonist who learns Lenny's little secret, and blackmails him into helping with Oscars shark slayer scheme. That story could go places.
Or how about make it about the Renee Zellweger fish who loves Oscar but then he gets attention for slaying a shark and starts ignoring her and then she mentions it to him and he lashes out to her, it can teach kids about abusive relationships and how to get out of them
The original How To Train Your Dragón did get nominated for an Oscar, and it should had won instead of Toy Story 3... EDIT: I do like Toy Story 3, but How To Train Your Dragon is waayy better. But this is just my controversal opinions.
Spongebob almost always forgets about the underwater aspect that when they actually adress it, it makes for hilarious moments. Like how the Campfire extinguishes itself when Patrick adresses the logical flaw or when the fish mother puts on Water wings on her child, causing her to raise to the surface.
Idk about y’all but this movie was iconic to me growing up Edit: I still try and come back and like y’all’s comments cuz I do be appreciative. Happy thanksgiving to those who celebrate!
@@girlbby7168 Honestly same, I watch it in Latin Spanish and that made the film funnier. Sometimes other languages makes a bad film good or makes a good film even better
Hello, I’m a shitpost meaning I know exactly what Comic Sans looks like and, yes, the menu is in Comic Sans which brings this movie from a -1/10 to a 10/10
Alternate names for fish king -Algae king -Worm King That’s all I got. Those are the only non cannibal options that I could find on google. I’m sure there are more options, but still.
The first time I saw Shrek 2 was last year in my freshman year of high school, and it was put on in German class. Easily one of the greatest movies I've ever seen, even in another language.
You captured my exact feelings about how drab the colors are. For Finding Nemo, let's make a bright beautiful shining ocean. For Shark Tale, let's imagine what it looked like after the BP oil rig disaster.
If you want to see Shark Tale done right, watch Rango. If you don't want to see Shark Tale done right, watch Rango anyway. Rango deserves more watchers.
I cannot believe I'm about to interject in a conversation about shark tale, of all things, and actually do it half-seriously but He's a fish. It's a fish society and I get his point that they're a civilized society so why would they eat each other but - why are we imposing human morality on fish, even if they have a human level of technology? Like, the lions in lion king arguably have a civilization if they're not technologically on-par with humans: they have culture, a political system, factions, and their culture clearly understands tool use (Rafiki's staff, traditionally painting the heir's forehead with paint).. but I assumed they still eat the other animals Maybe it's just kind of accepted that hey, we have a civilization, but some fish still eat other fish. Maybe it's like Bojack Horseman, where some chickens are deliberately mutated/bred to be food animals. Why would fish society be anti-fish consumption just because they have buildings and view human movies if they just, inherently view eating fish as okay. Moral relativism! Why did I just type that all out? Why did I put so much thought into this point? Why did I take this so seriously? We'll never know.
Fun fact, 3 Sopranos actors had cameos voicing 3 of the mobsters in the Great White Mob. Michael Imperiloli voices Franky (Lenny’s brother), Vincent Pastore voices the octopus henchman, and Frank Vincent voices one of the hammerhead sharks as well. Even James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano) was the original pick for Don Lino’s voice actor
And Peter Falk (Lieutenant Columbo) voices the brown shark (because Columbo is Italian and wears this iconic beige coat), love Columbo eternally, they're so iconic for all those references
I have never agreed with Shark Tale once We have fought on like seventy-five different fronts But when all is said and all is done Shark Tale has beliefs, Illumination has none.
I swear that I lived in an alternative timeline because I've never ever heard anyone say this was a bad movie. I honestly loved this movie as a kid O_O
@Plantimations! Is simple logic. if weed makes you fly, then seaweed makes you swim. Now, if you excuse me. I have some seaweed brownies with my name on them, see you in atlantis.
So I was thinking about the sushi thing and it actually kind of makes sense. Cannibalism is eating another of your *species* but fish aren’t a species. They’re a categorization of animals. So it would be like people eating other mammals. Which we do by the way (cows, pigs, etc.) so yeah the movie’s still trash but that scene might have had an insane amount of thought behind it
Also fish are so distantly related to each other that, by technicality, every tetrapod is a fish. If you don’t know what a tetrapod is, look it up. We are closer related to bony fish than sharks are to bony fish.
would you eat a monkey? i guess not, but even so, would you eat monkeys if they were as intelligent as humans, and you had monkey coworkers, lovers and bosses? this changes everething. Not that it matters, it's just a dumb movie, and i had a lot a fun watching it
1973: Mean Streets 1976: Taxi Driver 1977: New York, New York 1980: Raging Bull 1982: The King of Comedy 1990: Goodfellas 1991: Cape Fear 1995: Casino There’s one film that is missing that reunites Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro. Of course, I’m referring to Shark Tale!!!
With all the fish puns in this movie I’m surprised there wasn’t a scene where Oscar said that if they ever make a movie based on him that he hopes the actor who would play him will be ‘Gill Smith’. ... You know if they thought of that they would have done it.
Regarding the “celebrating tuna history month” billboard, for those uninitiated, tuna are one of the most fished underwater creatures in the ocean currently, thus, it’s not that shocking to me when I see this billboard, as compared to other fish, they’re being “targeted” more by humans in their eyes. This fictional world having a whole month dedicated to them to remember them by is somewhat wholesome in a stupid way. As for why it stays there for so long, I’m gonna give assume the reason is due to the fact that in New York, which this fictional underwater city is based upon, rarely takes down its billboards, heck, some stay up for decades before being replaced or covered up. Or it could be laziness, most likely laziness
@@smeck9479 I don't know fella, maybe because this is an animated movie where fish act like humans?? Can you comprehend that? Can you get that into your little itty bitty skull?
Oscar: “I wanna be famous and be a somebody cuz my boss doesn’t respect me!” Also Oscar: *constantly bad at his job, owes his boss tons of money and makes race jokes to said boss*
He wanted to be rich because he felt like a nobody, especially since he got bullied as a kid. The guy thinks so little of himself that he believes that being rich is the only way to get someone to love or respect him. It's kinda sad actually.
The joke about Oscar being a cleaner wrasse (which cleans other, bigger fish by eating parasites and dead tissue off of them) and working as a cleaner at the whalewash is actually kind of clever. Too bad it's the only thing in the movie that is.
Tara Jones there’s plenty of other things in the movie that are clever. Like the fact that the guy running the sushi shop wasn’t getting any business. You need to remember that this was a KIDS MOVIE and that kids don’t give a shit about whether or not the movie is realistic or that the fact a place being called “fish king” doesn’t make sense since the real world Burger King isn’t called “human king”. Like who tf cares? This review is just so biased and doesn’t simply see the movie for what it is, a comedy for children. And one of my favorites.
It's a trip, my brother pointed that out when we were kids, and I had no idea what he was talking about. As an adult, the references are as subtle as a gun. Lmao.
@@prata9740 Yes if they are depicted to live in a civilized environment. Also, the sharks in the movie itself are considered bad because they eat other sentient beings, so I guess the sushi shop owner is just as evil.

Spongebob almost always forgets about the underwater aspect that when they actually adress it, it makes for hilarious moments. Like how the Campfire extinguishes itself when Patrick adresses the logical flaw or when the fish mother puts on Water wings on her child, causing her to raise to the surface.
I like to think that in the shark tale universe Jaws is a biopic. And sharks view Jaws The Shark as a martyr.

@@Pikachuzap212 gotta know your audience
I cannot believe I'm about to interject in a conversation about shark tale, of all things, and actually do it half-seriously but
He's a fish. It's a fish society and I get his point that they're a civilized society so why would they eat each other but - why are we imposing human morality on fish, even if they have a human level of technology? Like, the lions in lion king arguably have a civilization if they're not technologically on-par with humans: they have culture, a political system, factions, and their culture clearly understands tool use (Rafiki's staff, traditionally painting the heir's forehead with paint).. but I assumed they still eat the other animals
Maybe it's just kind of accepted that hey, we have a civilization, but some fish still eat other fish. Maybe it's like Bojack Horseman, where some chickens are deliberately mutated/bred to be food animals.
Why would fish society be anti-fish consumption just because they have buildings and view human movies if they just, inherently view eating fish as okay. Moral relativism!
Why did I just type that all out? Why did I put so much thought into this point? Why did I take this so seriously? We'll never know.

So I was thinking about the sushi thing and it actually kind of makes sense. Cannibalism is eating another of your *species* but fish aren’t a species. They’re a categorization of animals. So it would be like people eating other mammals. Which we do by the way (cows, pigs, etc.) so yeah the movie’s still trash but that scene might have had an insane amount of thought behind it
That actually makes a lot of sense, I was thinking the same thing. Thanks for this comment, I thought I was the only who was thinking this
He addresses this with a blurb on screen. He says that in this context, fish are just a standin for humans.
Also fish are so distantly related to each other that, by technicality, every tetrapod is a fish. If you don’t know what a tetrapod is, look it up. We are closer related to bony fish than sharks are to bony fish.
ok but this movie's underwater is pretty diverse
would you eat a monkey? i guess not, but even so, would you eat monkeys if they were as intelligent as humans, and you had monkey coworkers, lovers and bosses? this changes everething.

It might be funny because it’s terrible, but it being nominated for anything is a crime.
@Michael Butler sadly can't say i agree. It's bad but in a frustrating way. It doesn't have any charm to me
Regarding the “celebrating tuna history month” billboard, for those uninitiated, tuna are one of the most fished underwater creatures in the ocean currently, thus, it’s not that shocking to me when I see this billboard, as compared to other fish, they’re being “targeted” more by humans in their eyes. This fictional world having a whole month dedicated to them to remember them by is somewhat wholesome in a stupid way.
As for why it stays there for so long, I’m gonna give assume the reason is due to the fact that in New York, which this fictional underwater city is based upon, rarely takes down its billboards, heck, some stay up for decades before being replaced or covered up.
Or it could be laziness, most likely laziness

The joke about Oscar being a cleaner wrasse (which cleans other, bigger fish by eating parasites and dead tissue off of them) and working as a cleaner at the whalewash is actually kind of clever.
Too bad it's the only thing in the movie that is.
Tara Jones as well as being good at that job, yeah
Unfortunately, we then got the "A lot of white fish can't snap it" comment to cancel out the accuracy of Oscar's biology in terms of making sense
Tara Jones there’s plenty of other things in the movie that are clever. Like the fact that the guy running the sushi shop wasn’t getting any business. You need to remember that this was a KIDS MOVIE and that kids don’t give a shit about whether or not the movie is realistic or that the fact a place being called “fish king” doesn’t make sense since the real world Burger King isn’t called “human king”.
