One actress has never appeared in any movie or show we've watched in over a decade, even though she was one of the best parts of my childhood and has some absolute banger movies. This actress is none other than 90's Nickelodeon royalty herself... Amanda Bynes.
Sort of Mamma Mia meets Winning London, this movie finds Amanda in jolly old England on a quest to... find her father? I mean she knows who he is. There's actually not much conflict to be honest, but it's a fun time - and Pink Popcast is joining me for the ride!
Plot (via Wiki):
Seventeen-year-old Daphne Reynolds (Amanda Bynes) is an American teenager, living with her wedding singer mother, Libby (Kelly Preston), in NYC. Many years earlier, Libby had met Briton Henry Dashwood (Colin Firth) in Morocco, and they had gotten married in a Bedouin wedding ceremony, under uncertain legality. They had then returned to his family's estate in England. His father died soon afterward, making Henry the Lord Dashwood, Earl of Wycombe. Alistair Payne (Jonathan Pryce), the family's aristocratic advisor, tricks Libby into leaving Henry, telling her it is best for Henry's duties not to know she is pregnant; then he lies to Henry, hiding the pregnancy from him, and saying that Libby's claim for leaving him was because she had fallen in love with someone else.
Libby has always been honest with Daphne about who her father was, though Daphne felt a sense of emptiness without him. Daphne runs off to London to try and meet her father. Henry has disclaimed his seat in the House of Lords to run for election to the House of Commons, hoping to eventually become the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Henry is being pushed by Alistair, acting as his political advisor. As a result, Henry has become engaged to Alistair's snobbish daughter, Glynnis (Anna Chancellor), who only wants to marry Henry in order to become the new Countess of Wycombe, who also had an equally snobbish and bratty teenage daughter, Clarissa (Christina Cole).
Checking into a London hostel, Daphne meets Ian Wallace (Oliver James), a local boy who works there to support his dream of becoming a musician. After forming a friendship when Ian shows Daphne around London, they start dating. When Henry catches Daphne at his estate, he is stunned to learn he has a daughter, but his mother, Jocelyne (Eileen Atkins), the current Countess of Wycombe, immediately welcomes her in, giving her a room at the estate. After confirming things in a phone call with Libby, Henry embraces the opportunity to connect with her. Daphne tries to win the acceptance of her father's social circle, but is repeatedly thwarted by Glynnis and Clarissa, who feel threatened by her arrival. In addition, Daphne has to ward off the advances of a boy, Armistead Stewart (Ben Scholfield), a sleazy and arrogant upper-class boy whom Clarissa fancies and with whom Ian has long-standing rivalry.
Henry's political campaign suffers due to Daphne's flamboyant and tomboy behavior. He asks her to assume the more dignified manner of the Dashwood lineage, after which Henry's polling numbers quickly begin to improve.
During her Debutante party, Daphne overhears Alistair telling Glynnis how he "got rid" of her mother. When Daphne confronts him, Glynnis locks her in another room. Libby frees Daphne, but when they see Henry dancing with Clarissa, Daphne rejects her new self, telling Henry she is returning to the United States. Sometime later, Henry surprises everyone by announcing that he is withdrawing from the election. As he leaves the press conference, Henry discovers that Alistair knew about Libby's pregnancy and manipulated their separation and punches Alistair in the face for concealing Daphne from him for seventeen years. Henry then breaks off his engagement to Glynnis and calls off the wedding.
Daphne is serving as a caterer at a wedding, where Libby is the singer. When the father-daughter dance begins, Henry shows up, telling Daphne that he loves her for who she is. Daphne embraces him, calling him "Dad" for the first time. Henry informs Daphne that he has brought a large apology present for her-at which point Ian appears and asks her to dance. As Ian and Daphne dance, Henry apologizes to Libby, and the two also start dancing.

So glad we got to watch this again!! Amanda is AMAZING 🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️❤️
So we can we expect Hairspray? Did you already do Hairspray?
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!😘💅🏾
@@limitlesssoul2882 OMG HAIRSPRAY!!!
My grandma was OBSESSED with this movie. It came out when she was in her 90s, she saw it on TV once and it instantly became her favourite. She had no idea how to work a DVD player so whenever she stayed with us she'd ask us to put on "her movie" the second she arrived. I never really cared for it but there was something about it that made an old lady so happy.
that’s so sweet! 🥹
She just loved seeing Colin firth in those leather pants
"WHY IS THE WEDDING SINGER MAKING OUT WITH THE CATERER?!?!"
Amazing quote. :D
absolutely killed me
Nothing like a wholesome scene of a father daughter reuniting to upstage the bride at her own wedding during the daddy daughter dance.
“He’s firthle” -the most iconic pun in the PMI universe
congrats on producing an off broadway show, eric! :D i hope a lot of people attend and enjoy
thank you!! ❤
"that would be like joe biden saying 'im dropping out cause im old as shit'" eric got the gift of prophecy there
'Joe Bidon saying im dropping out cause im old as shit' ERIC 😂
The heartbreak I experienced watching her miss out on her first chance at a father-daughter dance is unmatched.
I used to cry 😭
Reminds me of that scene with Chucky in the Rugrats movie
@@sketchycat6223 ugh i use to skip that scene as a kid! that was so heartbreaking every time :(
Never in my life did I ever think that my favorite commentary channels would do a collab- this is top tier
hope you enjoy both vids!!
Ditto! I was so excited when I saw the notification! A match made in heaven!
The dancing waiters bit had me laughing almost as hard as Eric singing along in ‘When in Rome’, holy shit.
That bit killed me too!
Jillian is beaming right now at th Mary Kate & Ashley reference
Girl I didn't know you did things in real life, I thought you just existed on the internet. Kudos
😂
Funniest comment omg
you totally need to do more amanda bynes movies (especially Easy A)!!! she was genuinely such a talented comedic actress, i wish she would make a comeback but hope she’s doing okay 🫶🏻
Sydney White, for sure!!!
Amanda's so naturally gorgeous in this movie, I wanted to be her sooo bad when I first saw it as a teenager. Such a genuine actress, too. I hope she knows that.
I loved her wardrobe in this movie and in Sydney White.
@@livelifeincolouromg SYNDEY WHITE WAS A TREASURE
Interesting choice of movie because there’s a dialogue that goes: “…you won't get a scene, you'll get a Broadway Musical!” so everything is connected?
There’s these weird coincidences on TH-cam recently, a lot of TH-camrs have been buying and taste testing cheese, Ethan Nestor and this ASMR guy I forget the name of (he does Poker and Black Jack videos) and there was another person who did that as well, and then CowOfTheSea which is this meme compilation channel I watched who posts these like tier list polls on their community posts is also doing a cheese poll. Why are we all taste testing cheese???? Is this some sort of conspiracy???
@@SamRK-1000 are they tied to some cheese testing contract with satan? and we thought we were screwed before...
Used to watch this movie all the time as a kid and Mamma Mia is one of my favourites so how have I only just realised that Colin Firth's character and plot is the exact same in both????
Congratulations on your Off-Broadway Show!
thanks so much! 🥰
17:19 Did Eric just predict the future??? 😂
1:00 the fact that Christina Aguilera’s “What A Girl Wants” isn’t in this movies lowkey makes me upset …what a missed opportunity!
unbelievable
I’m suing!
"The worst that you could possibly be is British" 14:52 I didn't just scream at this line, I LITERALLY SQEAUK.
Benji & Eric singing together brings me so much joy, you guys have to do another singalong movie collab
PRETTY MUCH IT FEATURING THE PINK PODCAST??? this is my multiverse of madness 🙏🙏💖
Pretty Much Pink 🎉
That last bit where you guys were imitating how the bride and groom would be reacting was golden! XD
need an amanda bynes cinematic universe the same way you had ashley and mary kate
Why is the wedding singer making out with the caterer?! 😂😂😂😂
Dead 😂💀🪦
One protruding thought that I had was how did she have clothes for everyday. All she brought was a small backpack. There is not enough room to pack multiple outfits.
When she was with the dashwoods, that makes sense, but on the other days, where did she put everything?
Oh… my… god… 🤯
It’s a movie. I’ve found a lot of them don’t make logical sense.
@@PinkRose0910 i know that but there some things where I can only suspend my disbelief so far.
Colin Firth was my Mr. Darcy from BBC Pride & Prejudice!
I'm obsessed with the Firth. I need reactions to A Single Man and Supernova and of course Bridget Jones.
@@chickflikguru BRIDGET JONES, YES
I watched this movie with my son for Valentine’s Day 2 years ago to show him what I used to watch when I was younger and I said in my head “how funny would it be if PMI did a commentary track on this” and now my dreams have come true!
Did your son like it?! You can't leave us hanging like that! We need to know his opinions on early 2000s teen romcoms
Omg the hotel is the same set as Bridget Jones's apartment. Colin Firth cinematic universe confirmed.
17:17 THIS AGED SO WELL 😂
Thank you for reminding me of this cinematic masterpiece. I was obsessed as a tween
10:47 the song is also used in the animated film Robots at the very end and everyone dances so could also seem familiar bc of that Erik
LOVE that movie!
The yelling at the end XD so true
You have no idea how much this channel has been a comfort to me, man. One of my best friends passed 2 weeks ago, and this channel has been a nonstop getaway for me. At least to make me laugh and smile when I felt like crying and frowning. Thank you, Eric ❤️
so sorry to hear that, austin. glad we can help in any way! ❤️
This was a comfort movie when I was a kid, I had a huge crush on the main guy
Same! I remember saving an early 2000s issue of YM magazine with an article about him ❤️❤️ he was so dreamy!
I remember the industry trying so hard to make the cute British boy love interest "happen", and then he just disappered! What happened to The Boy?!
And Willa Ford, the icon, sang "I Wanna Be Bad"!!
Didn’t he do one other movie? 🤔
@@PinkPopcast probably lol but when I was 13-14, two teen romcoms with the exact same British boy who plays guitar was a lot😂
He was also in Raise Your Voice with Hilary Duff!
@@essgeekay29 that was it! And he played basically the exact same character. I was obsessed 😩
Not Benji asking if Colin Firth is British 😂😂😂
I hate him 😂
collab of the century omg ?? also congrats on your show!
omg you did she’s the man- WE WON!!
Congrats on making an off broadway show hope everything goes well. Also as a Brit this movie has all of the British stereotypes
This is the perfect collab I just know the energy will be amazing!!
10:05 Mace Tyrell has just ALWAYS looked like this. That man is ageless
Not Eric predicting Biden stepping down
I saw "The Life and Slimes of Marc Summers" a few weeks ago and had a great time. I didn't even realize you were a producer! For those in New York (or visiting New York), it's a fun show that combines live on-stage games from Double Dare (with audience participants!) with a funny and heartfelt one-man show about Marc Summers' life and living with OCD.
so glad you enjoyed it!
Eric should know that one of the writers for this movie was also a writer for The Greatest Showman
NO
It's actually a great British tradition for posh kids to get to university age and cosplay being a poor person
It was agent cody banks 2 where they used the exact same song in the scene LMAO
YOOOOO an off broadway show!?!! Thats so cool dude congrats!! Also idk why but i loved this movie as a kid lol
This is my favorite Amanda Bynes movie. I cried in theaters the first time I saw it. I was like 8 😅
I wish I could have seen this in theaters
I swear that James Brown song was in every single movie released between 2000 and 2006
9:20 i really love the dress she is wearing 😭😭 it's a beautiful shade of green and i love the layering
Your phantom references made my heart smile ❤
Great reaction! Congrats on your off-broadway show!
the amount of phantom references in this video has me once again asking for a phantom 25 commentary
11:44 tiger spotted! Top left sticker
Omg he wasn’t lying!!!
WOW good eye!!!
Best crossover I’ve ever seen THANK YOUU
AHHH THIS IS AWESOME!! I'm halfway through the She's The Man reaction with the Pink Popcast and now this?! What A Girl Wants! YESSSSSSS I LOVEEEED this movie as a kid and I cannot wait to see you guys react to it!! A double feature PMI & Pink Popcast has kicked off my Friday to the weekend perfectly! Much love Eric and Pink Popcast, this is FANTASTICCCC!!
Also looking up tickets for your show! I would love to go but I might be too far away :( But congratulations Eric!!!
*GOOOOO TIGERS!*
This movie hit hard for the dadless little girls. I've always loved this one and this was such a good commentary!
studying for my final in an hour
DROP OUT
@@PrettyMuchIt honestly, inspirational
It's crazy, I recently watched What a girl wants, Sydney white AND she's the man (I have a 3 disc dvd set) and then you guys react to two of them 😂 These films are gold
May the 5irth be with you!
VERY nice
You guys are so good at dissecting these movies and asking all the right questions :P
If you're on the Amanda binge, then you should do "Sydney White" if you haven't yet.
Congrats on your showwww!! How wonderful 🥰🥰
Love all the Phantom of The Opera references because I thought the same thing watching this😂
What was the obsession with that James Brown song in early/mid 2000s movies for kids? This movie, Robots, Harriet The Spy. It's an absolute banger, but im generally curious 😂
so happy to see you guys collab!! congrats on the off broadway show, eric ❤
omg eric .. i feel like i haven’t seen your face in so long 😭 it’s so crazy how much we’ve both changed since i first saw your sky high vid. so happy for you, man !

The “Hmmm Yummy” line gave me ptsd flashbacks lol
16:55 this is still one of my favorite lines in a movie of all time!
Congrats on the show Eric!!’
Thank you for continuing to make us laugh for All these years 💕
Wait what?!?!? The collab I didn't see coming yayyyyy
Loved this movie so much growing up! I feel like it was always on tv 😂 now it’s my comfort movie anytime I’m sad 🥰

Wait did he predict Joe dropping out?
"i'm dropping out bc i'm old as shit" oh....this aged well
“She didn’t seem to want much” was honestly so true
Congrats on the play dude💪🏼
The soundtrack was wonderful and I still listen to it
