God afternoon my friend
Production nation my parents said if I hit 15k they’d buy me a professional camera begging you guys please🙏🏻
Where are the clone wars retrospectives???????
ME WANT MOOOOORE
Sigh your first 😔
THAT WAS HIS MISTAKE
As an adult you look back and realize sid was absolutely an abused kid. From the way he takes his frustration out on toys, bullying his sister, all the locks on his bedroom door and especially the scene where the dog chases buzz into the room but leaves just by seeing the dad sleeping there surrounded by empty cans
Yup. And he wound up a garbage man.
And it’s just not his dad. His mom also plays a part in the way he acts in the original film. While she might not abuse him, she does enable his violent behavior like letting him play unsupervised with matches and letting him skateboard all the way to Pizza Planet by himself and back home instead of just driving there and dropping him off and coming back to pick him up. Heck, even though Hannah tries to tell on him to her when he mutilates one of her toys, I highly doubt she interferes in their any of their arguments or even stops him from stealing and mutating her dolls. Hannah’s probably the only normal family member in the Philips household and sadly has to put up with such a dysfunctional family life.
Wow, that's true. Huh, PIXAR really went for it in their first film, didn't they?
WOW.
oh fuck-
The Earl twist within this video is unironically a better twist than the one in Lightyear
That he’s a predator?
@@rayvenkman2087 That his name isn't Earl, but Thunderclap or something.
I legit forgot there was a villain in good dinosaur.
wait what was good dinosaur about?
@@jakedavidheilemann1208 Uhhhh, it was about a really good dinosaur and a random kid in the mix? Idk man, your guess is as good as mine
@@jakedavidheilemann1208 they move to a place, and then they move to another place and… hmm? What were we talking about again?
What I like about Sydrome is that when his actual plan failed, he didn't just give up and ran away instead he decided to kidnap Jack Jack for no other reason than to hurt Bob one last time.
That's the sign of a true supervillain right there. Putting extreme pittiness over his own safety. Instead of escaping to continue his plotting to destroy all heroes another day, he escaped and decided to kidnap Bob's baby with the intention of raising him to hate his father. Proving at his last moments that his grand plan to end the very concept of supers was just an extensión of his obsesion with Bob, the only thing that really mattered to him was make him suffer. He would have been a terrible sideckick, but he sure have the makings of a real achnemesis.
Syndrome is a great villain, but I believe there are way better villains. His introduction is just a little rushed in my opinion and I liked Randall more.
Is it me or Brad Bird movies villains are always goofy morons? I know it's not a Pixar movie, but The Iron Giant is probably the best exemple. The movie really hammer the fact that Mansley isn't just malicious, he's a complete dumbass.
@@bowserbreaker2515Randall falls a little for me because he can't really pose a direct threat to all characters. Every confrontation he has is with Mike or Boo, because Sully could realistically tear him in half. With Syndrome, he would also be beaten physically, but he doesn't have to fight physically. Zero point energy is just that absurd that he poses a threat
@@jstar3382 Fair enough. But I still like Randall more. But my favorite Pixar villain might be Chef Skinner. His crazy persistence combined with watching a man slowly lose his mind is really funny.
Im sad you didnt mention how Chick Hicks becomes a totally unhinged sports commentator and how Lightning McQueen lives rent free in his head.
That’s one of my favorite parts of Cars 3 tbh, like after a literal DECADE this guy not only hasn’t gotten off the high of that one Piston Cup win, but also has probably seen every Piston Cup race that Lightning won and just stewed in his hatred for him all that time. It’s hilarious.
Wow, Chick Hicks is Stephen A. Smith
I find Lotso's fate to be worse than death actually. There's a good chance that he could be tied to that truck for decades, slowly deteriorating, surrounded by other toys that he hates, unable to move and far too dirty and unnappealing for a child to ever want him. He started at the top and completely plummeted to rock bottom.
Absolutely correct. Lotso suffers eternal damnation
That's slightly undermined by the fact that the other toys who he's stuck with seem pretty decent and probably haven't done anything wrong, and almost certainly nothing as close to what Lotso himself got up to.
And he also lost all the comfort and control he had at sunnyside, something that he can never get back now that Barbie and Ken are the new reasonable leaders of sunnyside.
And he was specifically tied there because the garbage man had his own Lotso as a kid and loved him that much
Not to mention that eventually, he would run out of that strawberry scent of his
Cant beleive The Boss from Incredibles who says "What about our Stockholders Bob? Who's helping them out? HUH!" didnt win, truly a travesty
Yeah I thought that was gonna be the movie with 2 villains because that insurance company is the real life evil
"Y'know, Bob. . . . a company-"

Honestly surprised you didn’t talk about Syndrome’s death. Not only is it super satisfying to see him get what he deserves but it’s also a great call back for when Bob got his new suit. One which favored practicality and effectiveness for superhero work over aesthetics. Syndrome cared more about looking like a hero then being one and that’s why he died.
The thing about Waternoose's goal is that while he wants to keep the company afloat, the fact that there's an energy crisis going on in the Monster world establishes a fairly good reason for why doing that is important, so he actually has a somewhat understandable justification for going to such extremes.
This also, hilariously (or sadly, depending on your viewpoint), makes him a lot less evil than a fairly large amount of real life CEOs.
I'd compare him to Samuel Hayden, honestly. Both are harvesting energy from Hell-worlds to try and stave off an energy crisis.
I wouldn't say it makes him _less_ evil. While Waternoose was under serious pressure to keep things running, I don't think "I'll kidnap a thousand children before I let this company die!" is a statement anyone would find ethical. If anything, his expression of remorse for banishing Mike and Sully might make him a tad less evil than other CEO's who either kill off whistleblowers (like Boeing, allegedly) or lie about their own hostile work environments instead of taking any steps toward positive change (like Activision).
@@bigshaggy6742Yeah, but I think a substantial amount of people would happily turn a blind eye to keep the lights on and the TV playing.
Also, his "crime" is not even the kidnapping. His crime in-universe is trying to bring children (a lot of them too) into the monster world, which was considered an extremely toxic and dangerous substance.
In other words, he trying to abuse a toxic but profitable substance, which is so in line with IRL CEOs, cause we've all seen the toxic shit big corpos have dumped into this world.
“What about the monster shareholders, Sulley? Who’s helping them out, huh?!”
The "terminated" scene in the Incredibles is a perfect example of showing and not just telling us why Syndrome is evil.
That scene is absolutely chilling too
Showing AND telling.
omg YES. I remember, as a kid, the first time I saw that scene, I need it time to process that I understood the right way. I was shocked, just like mr incredible, because it's such a dark discovery
@@user-tw3rh9po4t "showing and not JUST telling" learn to read before correcting. They literally said that.
@@-Blasphemy-I said the correct phrase. Learn to read before writing.
Smash, next question
pass
Wait isn’t Sid a minor
Wait Sid too? 💀
*Hold up*
Smash. Next ranking list
I think the fact that Waternoose says the company has been in his family for 4 generations adds a bit more to his character. He doesn’t want to banish Sulley, Sulley was his top scarer, but facing failure and a company that had been in his family for multiple generations made him desperate. He feels bad for what he did but he didn’t want to fail 4 generations of crustaceans, so you kinda get it
Ironically serves to make Waternoose still significantly less evil than most corporate CEOs of today in terms of motive. At least in the fact he had an actual reasoning to his madness and not just "innovating" for the sake of innovation. (which is a really bad reason to innovate.)
@@NeonWasInUse Yeah, even if we can both agree that his actions are wrong, we can sympathize with him because we understand how long this company was with his family. He had a motive, he didn’t just say to the camera, “If I don’t innovate, someone else will” as a certain evil Jurassic World scientist would put it
@@perfectpasta3155
Well I was moreso referring to the ongoing energy crisis and the massive role Monsters Inc. played in monster society at large in regards to that. Forcing Waternoose to take drastic measures. Kids just weren't getting scared like they used to anymore and things were starting to become highly desperate, all the while not having the hindsight to see laughter as alternative energy.
Obviously he still did not do a good thing. But at least you could *kinda* see why he was so desperate, because if he let Monsters Inc. go under, he was basically dooming monster society alongside it.
That's something I really like about Waternoose. He doesn't just stop at being a good twist villain. He's a twist villain because he didn't have a choice, which is a really interesting take, and makes his actions all the more vile as desperation drives him to say and do progressively more horrible things.
Really makes me wonder how the movie would play out if Waternoose had had the hindsight of laughter being an alternative energy source. Would Waternoose have been evil? Would he even have listened to Randal at all? It's an interesting thought.
The ultimate irony of Waternoose is that he scares because he cares.
@@NeonWasInUseif he knew it was 10x more powerful he’d definitely go with it, not sure he would if he didn’t know since it’s a big change
Honestly, one of the most memorable Syndrome moments for me wasn’t even from the main movie, but from the DVD special “Jack-Jack Attack.” He tried to bluff Kari the babysitter, talking in a more subdued voice while still wearing most of his costume, and it’s delightfully goofy.
It also happens to be where the “You Dense Mother…” meme comes from.
As a kid the BS line went over my head lol
The S is for sitter lol
i think people reading the incredibles as "people who are born special are better" are missing the fact that, like, syndrome COULD be a hero if he wanted to. he's an inventor with a vast fortune, dude could basically pull an iron man if he wanted to. but instead he buys a private island and spends all his time killing off supers so he can prove himself better than them.
Basically, he's kinda a truly evil Megamind counterpart, think about it. Their villiany (or, in case of Megamind, "villiany") comes from the rejection, both of them don't have any physical powers, both tried to kill someone who has those powers and thus prove themselves to be better then them and receive affection. Speaking of Megamind, Syndrome only shows how terrifying of a villian could've Megamind be if he turned... Well, actually bad.
It's not Syndrome that this reading comes fro, but Dash and Bob who keep talking about the importance of being great and how the phrase "everyone is special" is another way of saying "no-one is". Buddy and the guy who sued Mr Incredible for saving him just come across as the embodiments of the jealousy of ordinary people towards actual special people when those things are remembered.
yeah and Edna's entire existence is proof he could've done something better. Edna knows how important she and her work of fashioning super suits are (especially with the no-cape moment showing how she stops supers from coming up with life-threatening design mistakes), and clearly enough people were threatened by her to the point she has a safeguard system in case someone tries to force themselves into her workshop
syndrome could have been using that power and money to help put supers back on the menu along with himself but naaah being a serial killer is a way better idea
He's not a villain because he's not special, because he is special. He's a villain because he's a horrible person.
plus the message of “if you’re born special you’re better” is just not a good message
The good dinosaur is so forgettable that I honestly believed the pterodactyls name was Earl.
Me too lol
Makes me wonder if Thunderclap or the bird-dino villains from Ice Age 5 are worse
Plot twist is that his name is not Thunderclap either but I don't care enough to check if it's right or not.
the real twist was learnign the good dinosaur HAD a defined villain
I'll pick Earl over Thunderclap any day of the week.
"It's bigger, it's better! Ladies and gentlemen it's just too much for Mr. Incredible!"
What I wish Schaff talked about is how Waternoose was not only trying to save his company, but also was trying to stop the energy crisis. It is something I feel gives more depth to Waternoose as a character and something that Schaff forgot to mention.
Finally, someone who realized Anton ego wasn’t a villian but an antagonist because he isn’t evil but just an intimidating food critic
Both him and the Dean from Monsters Uni are of that character archetype. They're not villains, but they are tough obstacles. And also, ultimately good people.
I thought he was hot
Yeah I'm surprised people listed him as a villain since Skinner is a much more clear villain in Ratatouille
@@user-bi2fr8cv4wI love how your comment contributes nothing to the discussion but is very important nonetheless
Bot
I think my favorite thing about Waternoose is that his downfall isn’t him just explaining his plan to the protagonist, but him realistically trying to justify his actions to Sully and saying something completely unhinged that also makes sense for him to say in the moment
Yeah, and that still makes sense for him because he values Sully as a great, hardworking employee

Something Schaff didn't talk about was how Waternoose was also fixated on solving the energy crisis. Even as he's being taken away, he still believes he's in the right.
Here's a thought. If Lightyear is, in-universe, the movie that the Buzz Lightyear line of toys is based on, And if the Zerg toy is Buzz's father. Does this imply that Zerg being old Buzz is canonically so stupid that they retconned him to being Buzz's father instead?
That’s so perfect
What if in universe Lightyear is one of those edgy franchise reboots that the brand behind Buzz Lightyear chooses to ignore
@@sophiebubbles07 **looks at Lonnatics Unleashed in the distance**
@@chessecontainmentLoonatics wasn't edgy. People who say that probably didn't watch past the first episode.
If anything it's a satire of the edgy reboot trope.
To anyone who was fooled by the "Earl" trick, it could be because there actually is another minor antagonist in that movie named "Earl".
“You sly dog you got me monologuing” is my favorite line from a movie. I use it so much when the villain starts exposition dumping
And it was used very effectively too. Unlike most villain monologue that just happen just 'cause, this is one started as a quick plan by Mr. Incredible to buy himself time to potential get the upper hand in the situation. There's actual tension and anticipation building up in the scene.
@@dcd3lt4 Also Buddy actually knows Mr. Incredible so it’s not like he’s just spewing out his plan because plot. He’s reveling in the evil genius role that Bob turned him into.
Plus, the movie sets it up so well in the beginning, too. When Frozone and Mr. Incredible are sitting in the car, Frozone is telling a story in an exasperated tone about how he beat a villain because he started monologuing. It established that heroes actively trick villains into monologuing and think they're dumb for it in this universe
Definitely one of the lines I quote the most
It was so iconic just because no one has ever been that self-aware as a super villain in a Pixar movie
As someone who owns one of those Lotso plushies, the way I see it is I'm just cuddling a _different_ Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear. -Like the one he got replaced with.-
Man that bottom spot was brutal. You know a beloved studio made a crappy movie when fans don't even want to give them credit for making it.

My favorite part about Syndrome is that he was so obsessed with Mr Incredible that he didn’t realize he was a super too. His power was just his super intelligence. A great lesson in the dangers of jealousy and obsession
Interestingly enough, there are many theories about Syndrome's parents being supers.
There might have even been one theory about Gazerbeam being Syndrome's father.
I like that he’s so goofy it loops back around to being sinister
I don't think his intelligence is a superpower rather than a byproduct of his hyper focused obsession with usurping Mr. incredible. Said obsession leads him to be blind of what he can accomplish despite not having powers aswell.
I think he definitely knew that 😂
it's just that people didn't see that his super genius was a super power
so he felt incredibly (pun intended) discriminated against and felt divided from heroes
"you killed off real superheroes so you could pretend to be one?"
"Oh I'm real. Real enough to beat you!"
Yeah it was all pov with Syndrome when he was a kid that got him to be against superheroes
Mr.Incredible said ‘“fly home buddy I work alone focusing mainly on the villain making sure he doesn’t get away
In Syndrome’s head: *Mr. Incredible glares at him with hate* fly home buddy I work alone😒
It's me Schaffrillas. I'm the one who semi-enjoyed the good dinosaur. I'm your sleep paralysis demon.
And I’m the other one I suppose (he underestimated our numbers)
@@hazakurasuyama9016saberspark also
Me too! We've got enough to split a bus fare!
One thing I always liked about the Incredibles is that Bob says that he doesn’t keep in touch with any of the heros from his past. This is used as a way of telling him that’s because they’ve moved on and settled into their ordinary lives.
But the reveal shows us that they haven’t been keeping in touch because they’ve died. It also shows us that they didn’t move on. Syndrome hired them for hero work, and they all accepted because they wanted to be heros again.
The funniest thing about Randall’s design, I think, is when you look at him squinting, you’d take that as a frowny, evil face that’s a part of his overall character
But when you get to Monster’s University, and you see him there, you’re like, oh, he can’t see well without glasses, that’s why
I hated how he is just a generic bully. Thats one of the things that made the movie worse. Withouth the generic bullies, the film could have been better. But not, the message was terribly delibered. The fact that Sully and Mike went into Monster Inc, withouth a diploma, is insulting. You dont become doctor withouth finishing the university.
@@fredy2041insulting? 😭😭😭 to who? also yeah you can’t become a doctor without a diploma, good thing they didn’t become doctors in that film!
@@sully42O The message that is tring to say is poorly delibered for how inconsistent it is. First, Why cant Mike scare? Why the movie ends with monsters that are less frightening than Mike, that the one with the glasses or the purple one, being able to join the scarier program? Not that they cant scare? If so, then Mike can.
Second. Thse movie has two bullies, the generic one and a Principal director. An educator should never ever tell an studient that he cant do things, like never. Also the problem lies that all thse people that bullied and downgrade Mike, the bully, the studients, the director. All these antagonists that were just mean to him. They won.
Its extremly frustrating. specialy at the end of the competicion. When Mike has that flashback of all those people telling him that he cant be this and how he express angry to shout and scary the robot. And all these, was for nothing.
All these people that downgrade him won at the end. The message the movie tied to do was poorly delibered cause of that.
Also, Being scarier and going to Monsters Inc, really implied that you need to go to an university first. Well clearly dont. So yeah, it really insults all profesions like doctor, pysocologist, and other carrers jobs, that require a diploma.
@@sully42O Its annoying how many that are blind to my point, are giving you likes withouth even question it.
@@fredy2041 dude people are liking my comment bc they probs didn’t like how you were coming off as a total academic snob. Your point about the villains was subjective and without an argument so I didn’t really care enough to comment on that part, but I thought it was weird how you called the no diploma aspect “insulting” like huh? I personally think it’s a pretty cool message to send to kids that you don’t need college to achieve your dreams bc you don’t always. Some kids are just not suited for an academic environment and some know that they will just probably not be able to afford going to college. It’s not insulting to tell these kids that they can still be happy and work their ways up in non conventional ways. What mfing doctor or psychologist watched Monsters University was insulted by that message? 😭😭😭 Being a scarer is no way equivalent to those kinds of jobs, scarers are not responsible for the physical and emotional well-beings of others, so that’s a really weird takeaway imo.
My future (hopefully) career requires me to do a PHD but I’m not gna be insulted bc a children’s movie didn’t preach the importance of a college-level education like let’s stay playful.
The reason I love Chick Hicks is because the absurdity of him not being disqualified for his pushing other cars.
It’s not like it’s a once time thing or anything. It’d be like a marathon runner beating the shit out of anyone who tries to go past him, while the Marathon organizers just watch and don’t intervene.
And you know they let him off the hook because brutality brings in the views. Plenty of fans who love to see car crashes and stuff. The hosts just turn a blind eye.
Wouldn't surprise me if car racing is more of a "contact sport" in the cars world, not necessarily allowed in the rules but not as heavily enforced as it should be, like what I understand of hockey before the rules against fighting were properly enforced. It also would've brought in viewer attention, of course.
To be fair, if we go off of actual stock car racing standards, what he does is not illegal, just really distasteful
KACHINGA
Maybe it’s like roller derbies
Regarding Waternoose, it’s not only about the company: they supply energy to the entire monster world. So them going under would actually be catastrophic to their society. Not saying he was justified, but his motivation is much more complex. What would YOU have done when faced with an ever increasing energy shortage which your company is solely responsible for solving, and you don’t have the hindsight of laughter as an option?
The one great thing about Johnny Worthington the Third is when Mike tells him to stop he says
"You want us to *stop* raising money for charity? That's not cool?"

I think Ernesto de la Cruz kept the photo of Hector was definitely an ego thing. He pulled of Hector’s murder and got so cocky he put it into one of his movies. By having his security toss Hector and Miguel into the cenote and keeping the photo, Ernesto essentially killed Hector twice now. You get your ass that egomaniac is going to keep that photo as a momento
Agreed. I feel like so many people wrote off villains as being bad for not making rational choices, forgetting the writers are often trying to show how things like pride and ego are negative traits that ultimately lead to a villains downfall.
@@LateNightTableCo Sometimes there's no winning.
A character can't do everything right or else they're unbelievable, but then when the characters do make bad decisions they're criticized for being stupid and creating plotholes.
@@SpaceJawaIt’s not even unrealistic. There are real live examples of killers getting caught because they let information slip (even directly to cops) because they thought they could never be caught. I mean why would OJ write a book called “If I Did It”, after he already got away with murder instead of laying low.
I feel like Gus Fring from Breaking Bad is a good example of this; his one irrational decision of going to kill Hector directly leads to his immediate downfall.
That's a great point
I really love the scene in the Incredibles where syndrome is monologuing and reminds Bob of the "fly home buddy, I work alone" line. The fact that we get to see that scene from syndrome's unreliable perspective where he's created false a false memory of Mr Incredible glaring at him with hate and disgust is really interesting. That one moment was so definitive for syndrome. He actually references it again when he taunts Bob about his family dying. We really get to see how he's been consumed with hatred and resentment over a single moment.
Also, in the original scene, Bomb Voyage is stood next to Mr. Incredible when he says that line but in the flashback, Bomb Voyage isn't there. People have called this an animation error but I think it was intentional. Syndrome was so focused on Mr Incredible's hurtful words that that was the only thing that stayed in his memory. Such a cool detail.
the fact that schaff using the pterosaur's wrong name was a bigger twist than most disney twist villains these days is both incredibly funny and sad
The scene with Lotso in TS3 when he tells baby “she don’t love you no more” and crushes the little heart … it literally made such an impact on me as a kid that it’s the first thing I remember when I think of that movie. Just the line delivery, the pure callousness of it, it literally struck fear into my heart as a child.
its a perfect example of how lotso uses his trauma as an excuse to be cruel and controlling even towards someone he supposedly cares about

i had the exact same experience as a kid 😭 the way he delivered that line made me so scared. i felt so heartbroken for poor baby.
The way the baby reacts to it as well makes it feel like Lotso is abusing an actual infant. It is honestly so horrifying due to how real it feels. Using a child as an punching bag for his own bitterness.

Did we really know he was evil from the start? Upon his first appearance the whole point was that he was supposed to appear as a nice and friendly guy who wanted to make the toys feel welcome at the daycare. It wasn't until a little while later when we realized his true colors.
Now I know why I love King Candy as a villain too. They are both evil from the start but we don't know just how far they were willing to go
@@Treeeee2008I mean, yeah. Maybe it depends on your age and/or how many works of fiction you've consumed by the time you first watched Toy Story 3. The "overly nice old guy" shtick is a fairly common trope for villains. Honestly it's more impressive to me that they managed to show the necessary details to point towards it so well through animation.
@@Treeeee2008the moment we see him being treated good by kids, we know something is up. Its just slowly unveiled exactly how much of a pos he is

"My evil plan is to convince the world that X is bad, even though the world already thinks that X is bad. So I'm going to convince the world that X is good first just so I can convince the world that X is bad later."
Exactly the same logic in both movies.

Hey look, I'm in a Schaffrillas Productions video!
Edit:
Also, thank-you for reminding me that Dinosaur Office (raaaaarh!) exits.
Another funny foreshadowing is that scene where Mike is trying to hide from Randall, only for him to reveal himself _blending in with a portrait of Waternoose._ Like he straight-up takes on his eyes. That's so crazy in hindsight.
I've probably seen Monsters Inc more than any other movie and I've somehow never made that connection. Mind blown.
"I will pay you a million dollars if you can name the villain from good dinosaur"

Absent fathers

my eyelids, since they were hard not to keep from closing in the final act.
Those floods were legitimely scary though, the quick flash of Arlo's dad being dragged away was surprisingly impactful for what the movie had been until then.
We know what happened to Sid from Toy Story as he apparently becomes the Garbage Man in Toy Story 3

"the twist villain car's plan is so convoluted and so stupid that it's kind of delightful"
Thank you for summarizing why there are fans of Cars 2 and why I am one of them.
yea this is basically the summation of cars 2 for me,
it's a delightful trainwreck of a film, and i enjoy it more than like 5 other pixar films for that reason
It may be a divisive movie, but it’s my divisive movie.
The whole appeal for Cars 2 was more the spy stuff than the actual story, and even then it's so corny and stupid when the whole movie is just Mater torture, it's a "so bad it's good" movie imo
Cars 2 is stupid, broken, shit, very stupid, has probably one of the best OSTs Michael Giacchino has ever concocted (It's Finn McMissile! goes way harder than it should).
That being said I adore this shitshow
It’s really not even convoluted, it’s just a bunch of reject cars sabotaging the alternative fuel industry, to drive up demand for their own oil lol
Schaff I’m disappointed you didn’t make a “buzz went back in time TO TAKE TURKEY OFF THE MENU” joke SMH
20:04 “ya know.. this grumpy old race car I know once told me something. It’s just an empty cup”
Fun fact: Lightning McQueen couldn’t have crossed the line before helping the King because then it would be counted as outside help and the King would have been disqualified, but when McQueen is still racing it just counts as a bump draft or collision
That makes so much more sense.
All this year I just understand that. Why did he wait for Chick to cross first before he helps King, though?
@@neko-love60Even if he sped and turned around to quickly help, Chick still would have won. I think he knew that and just took his time rather than try to rush it, because if he did rush, it would seem like he cared more about the race than helping someone who was hurt.
@@neko-love60 honor was more important than winning in that moment for Lightning
My favorite part about syndrome is just a little detail. When syndrome remembers when Mr incredible told him he “worked alone” he sees him in a gold, almost angelic light with no bomb voyage in sight, showing just how heroic he seemed to him and how much he wasn’t paying attention to the situation.
Bomb voyage ?
You mean Bon voyage ?
@@gwanael34 Watch the movie, you'll understand.

20:27 learning Michael Keaton played Chick Hicks sent me through a wormhole
Cars 2 has fans.
Yep!
I always saw Ernesto keeping Hector's photo as a sign that, deep DEEP down, he still cares about Hector. Not enough to sacrifice his career and reputation because his of ego (and perhaps insecurity of his talents) but enough that he'd like to keep a photograph of the man who was once his best friend. Who knew him before he got big and famous. To me, Ernesto keeping the photo - going against logical thinking and going off emotions instead - makes him even more interesting of a villain - more human.
I had the same thought!! He clearly cares about Hector even if it’s the slightest hint of it
That's very clearly what the writers were going for. But ofc big crab man didn't get that. Just like how he didn't get why Lighting McQueen sacrificed the piston cup, because if he would have crossed the finish line, it would mean he still values an "empty old cup" over the legacy of a racing legend.
I really enjoy shrafillas, but some of his takes are just goofy.
@@PTS-Maid I feel like Schaff, for a guy who does analysis stuff for a living, likes to prioritize surface-level jokey criticisms of these kinds of scenes over digging deeper and seeing the meaning behind them. He does this quite a bit and I'm not even sure if he does it on purpose
“To answer that, we need to talk about parallel universes.” That caught me so off guard and was so freaking hilarious , I love it when people reference that iconic line.

I can't believe you forgot the ultimate Pixar villain: *John Lasseter*
John Misconduct.
16:49 - 16:51
And when he decided to side with John Lasseter.
Hopper was seared into my brain as a child. He gave me a true sense of cruelty and malice, and I understood the difference between good and evil. It made the hero feel important.
Me too!! I always got chills when Flick tells him "we're a lot stronger than you say we are. And you know it....don't you?"
Hopper was the only fictional villain I have ever actually hated. No other villain has done that for me since.
also he was hot
i will take no further questions
i was genuinely terrified of him as a kid
@@lrizzard You’re attracted to Kevin Spacey.
Also Molt is hotter…
That speech Hopper gave, absolutely FIRE🔥🔥🔥
“You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up. Those puny little ants outnumber us a hundred to one, and if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life! It’s not about food, it’s about keeping those ants in line”
Any politician in real life could say something like that, too.

What helps waternoose’s twist is also the fact that he was trying to fix a legit problem, as he explained that simply scaring children wasn’t enough anymore
Not only that, the company is what gives energy to the whole town, meaning he had a good reason to not want the company to go under
I don't think it's implied they're the only energy company in the city, just the biggest one.
torturing children...
no
@@stephenkrahling1634he doesn’t care about humans only his own people
@@stephenkrahling1634 _"I'll kidnap _*_a thousand_*_ children before I let this company die, and I'll silence anyone who gets in my way!"_ He didnt even like Randal, but he was desperate in saving the company he went along with his barbaric scheme/contraption. (The scream extractor, which is torture as shown by being strapped + Fungus)
And when he's arrested, things aren't automatically good. Sully's clearly upset that he had to put the company he's been trying to keep afloat on the line for hurting kids like Boo, and everyone who works at Monsters Inc is terrified that they'll be out of a job when the factory is closed. It's nice bit of realism for the situation.
Fun fact that might interest a whole three people: The German dub translates Syndrome's line "I'm still geeking out about it!" with "Mir stehen noch immer die Haare zu Berge!" which translates to "My hair is still standing up like a mountain!" which is both a pretty popular phrase to show excitement but is also an obvious pun making fun of his hairdo.
Massive kudos to the translation team for that! I am officially one of those three people who is interested in it.
I am also one of those people
I am another interested person.

The fact a teddy bear that smells like strawberries is an incredibly well written villain, I… I don’t even know what to say XD

And spends ⅕ of the video on him
@@Quartz512_Lightyear Zurg has a cool design but dear god he's so dumb.
@@leviticusprime4904I feel like he would have been better if he was either not related to Buzz at all and was just a cool, robot warlord, or PRETENDED to be Buzz’s dad like the animated show to really get into his head and psychologically mess with him…But no; we can’t have nice things…
@@leviticusprime4904honestly I think they should’ve just let the lightyear movie have more cheese. I haven’t watched it, but from what I’ve heard and seen from it is that it takes itself far too seriously. I think letting it be more cool and a tad cheesey with Zurg maybe still being Buzz’s father could have honestly worked, but idk I’m not a movie director
Give me the bajillion shillings. I knew it was Thunderclap the entire time.
Love listening to your long form stuff while i clean thanks
20:15 I would argue that Lightning letting Chick win was actually a better move from a pragmatic perspective. Lightning had that race in the bag, and everyone knew it. By stopping just before literally winning he publicly proved that he valued helping someone else more than his own victory. That kind of PR is difficult to come by, and the only thing he had to give up was the cup itself. In the long run that goodwill was a better investment, and would’ve made him a fortune had he chosen to take Dineco’s offer.
Not to mention that if him and Chick finished first, the race would've been over, giving King no chance to properly finish his last race.
And also considering the scene literally shows mcqueen thinking about doc hudson crash in 54 when the king crash implying that mcqueen was thinking and remembering what doc went through
Now that’s what I call character development.
also the fact that it exposed Chick as an even bigger A-Hole Cheater so he lost everything ruining his career, giving McQueen an even bigger victory
I mean yeah, but like… if he did that just for PR it kinda invalidates his character development.
Earl’s real name being Thunderclap was actually a better twist than Zurg being old Buzz Lightyear

Can I say something
My favorite twist in any Pixar movie is finding out that not only was there a villain in The Good Dinosaur, but his name is in fact not Earl
The fact you're using mario music after mentioning parallel universes made me immediately think about the video terminalmontage did about Super Mario world and I couldn't be happier!
Something interesting I noticed during this video is that Chick Hicks has tons of what is probably sponsors in his sides which is such a clever addition to his design you can tell just by looking at his design that he is only in it for fame and money
i never noticed just HOW many sponsors Chick had until watching this video. McQueen has a a couple too, but its only like, 14 stickers on his side, plus the main Rust-eze. While Chick is COVERED in stickers
also his main sponsor is called "hostile takeover bank" of all things, display of greed just written on his hood the entire movie, it works very well. cars was a pretty alright movie, shame they never made a sequel
He really has that “this video is sponsored by Raid Shadow Legends” energy
@@Rarest26 raid can at least be fun with their sponsors, like Caddicarus' sponsor segments are pretty fun. Chick Hicks will take any sponsor. like that scam owning land one, or better help, or just anything willing to pay him
@@Mariokemon sponse
Zerg in Lightyear is literally just Goob! Thats literally who he is!
“Well done, Lightyear!”
“Wanna come to my training pod later?”
“…they all HATED me!”
But I prefer Goob the Goofy Goober
Underrated comment
That's so true tho!!!
I think my mind’s just been blown
Goob is way better with his motives and theme though, but I get your point
My headcannon for why Ernesto didn't tear up the photo is because dead people aren't able to tamper with or destroy photos from the living world. Although if this were true they would still need to make something like that clear.
The dinosaur office sound clip exploded my brain and nostalgia started filling it
the fact Jason Lee also played Dave in Alvin And The Chipmunk after The Incredibles years later is extremely crazy
Omg, I can hear it!
Also Earl from my name is earl, and underdog
He was on a hot streak in the early-mid 2000’s; crazy considering he first gained fame as a pro skater
Was half expecting you to come back at the end and tell us that Thunderclap's name really was Earl. I would've believed it
I didn’t even know Michael Keaton was in Cars
Lotso was always really creepy to me because it always felt like he had a predatory vibe to him
You know what’s crazy- when I was a kid I always really liked Mr Waternoose. He was so warm and kind for so long, he never became scary for baby me. Honestly fantastic
I think it's because unlike, say, Lotso, Waternoose was never putting up a façade. He WAS a kind and warm guy and he genuinely did like Sulley. He was just hiding some skeletons in the closet
@@stevepensando2593and he had a motive, the monsters saw children as dangerous and a threat. It’s like how humans see spiders.
Can we also talk about the fact that Waternoose keeps the monster world under the false pretense that humans were toxic?
Is it implied that he is the one who spread that idea? I thought it was maybe just an idea that had been around for a while in their world.
I don't know if it's from Waternoose.
I think it's probably that some kid brought something like small pox or cholera when it got through the closet and it killed a lot of monsters, so they think that kids are toxic not realizing it was a disease.
Many cultures have misallocated disease to either air or water when it was actually bugs or fecal matter in the water
@@strawberryfaes I believe that idea was around in their world for generations, and Waternoose used it to justify kidnapping and torturing children, as well as the whole "save the company" motivation.
@@Delta_Aves ah yea that would make sense!
I never really saw it that way. I saw the touch thing as Hyperbole, meant to protect the monster world from humans. Maybe early monsters realized that humans were far more dangerous and advanced than they were. So Monsters acted subtly in the human world, only scaring children, to not bring attention. The touch thing was probably justified propaganda to keep monsters from getting too close to the human world and bringing humans closer to the knowledge of their world.
Didn’t expect the background music for Syndrome, the #1 on this video which already has over 1 million views, to be Porky’s Theme from Mother 3. I love that game, and the choice is fitting (in the game lore, Porky is an annoying brat kid who was influenced to become terrifyingly powerful and evil in the previous game in the series and comes back). Anyway, great video and amazing deep dives into the characters, man!
Lotso absolutely terrified me as a kid
What I love about Hopper is he’s essentially just the leader of a military dictatorship. He’s probably also the most well written military dictatorship leaders in fiction too and he’s from a Pixar movie.
Yeah he's a great villain but, best in fiction? Massive overstatement.
@@UserName-hb7hw yeah. There's better villain than him if we include all of fiction
The best part about Hopper is that he's the one character in the film who knows the "message" of the movie from the start, that being "the ants can beat the grasshoppers". He's not this arrogant bully who mistreats others because an opportunity presents itself. He knows perfectly well that he's actually outmatched, he has no chance to win if the ants realize what their own strength is. His actions all serve the singular purpose, not of "getting food" or "bullying the weak for shits and giggles", but of preventing that realization in the ants. He walks the tightrope of a lifestyle that could end - and potentially kill him - at any point and he's using every trick in the book to boost his odds. When Flick says "the ants are stronger than grasshoppers" and Hopper's mask slips, Flick himself is surprised to say "…and you know that". Beautiful.
Pixar actually got us terrified of a villain literally named "Hopper".
@@UserName-hb7hw how many military dictators do you know in fiction. Not a ton of competition that I know of.
The fact he talked about the minor Zurg cameo in Toy Story 3 to avoid Lightyear as long as possible is perfectly understandable lol.
Yes, yes it is.
I like listening to you talk about anything. You are just straight up entertaining.
I didnt even remember that the good dinosaur had a villan in the first place
Hopper's speech on class struggles may be one of the most relevant things out of Pixar.
“Those puny little ants outnumber us 100 to 1. And if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life.”
And sadly, we as society know that we outnumber the elites, yet refuse to do anything about it. We just complain about it online and hope things get better. 🤡
“Those puny little ants outnumber us a hundred to one. And if they ever figure that out, there goes our way of life.”
It’s sad that we all know this is true and yet, we do nothing about it. Instead of standing up to the ruling class and the elites, we just sit around and complain about it. And we continue to vote in the same people into power and hope things will be different this time. Kids have learned nothing from A Bug’s Life.
