Responding to your fiancee's death with "Oh, women, it's always something!" might be the funniest line I've ever heard in a kids movie
No lie, i couldnt breath after that
Woman moment
“Plenty of fish in the sea…cmon lads!”
''it's always something with women''
-Leon scott kennedy
Yeah that was hilarious
Yo I don't even care if this movie is good anymore, one guy animating, directing, writing, and editing an entire fuggin feature film BY HIMSELF is an incredible achievement and I have massive respect for this guy automatically.
Yeah
(Edit: Just to clarify, I was making a reference to an animated movie that was reviewed by another TH-camr and had since become a running gag in his channel.)
Same with Joshua and the Promised Land
@@dannyrpgninetwooak6434 We don't include religious propaganda in our assigning of respect.
@@oxymoron02 ...That was a reference to a SaberSpark video.
@@oxymoron02 Also, who asked you? I do apologize if the Joashua comment gave off the wrong vibe, but it was intended to be taken with a grain of salt.
Laugh all you want at the fight choreography, but that's actually how seals "fight". They just slam into each other and scream in their faces.
ok but the "girl elephant seal" is just a pink male 😭
@@dracodracarys2339 we love a trans icon
Honestly i like that more than girl animals in movies having larger eyes smaller noses and tiddies even if they dont make sense @@dracodracarys2339
@@dracodracarys2339 ...like they always are in cartoons? In one episode of the Timon and Pumbah show Pumbah is just about to get married to a female warthog that is just pink and with lipstick. Angel in Lilo and Stitch (aka 624) is also just a pink Stitch, and she is as far as I know the only female of Jumba's experiments.
@@PikaLink91the pink elephant seal is literally unintentionally trans. only male elephant seals have the big noses 😭 unlike stitch and warthogs, the sexual dimorphism is very obvious in elephant seals
“Writing Credits: Phil Nibblelink, William Shakespeare” will never not be funny to me
Shark island should’ve been called Finland. Missed opportunity
**Patrick gets hit by a bowling ball**
“FINLAND!”
Lmao sorry, I just had to reference.
@@justaguyonyoutube4592*loopy*where’s the leak ma’am?
You're so effing right. Also, tbh, I'd be down to live in Finland with a shark rather than the Finland I live in
FINLAAAAND!
Would have been funny if they didn't reveal it was an actual island shaped like a fin until romeo gets sent there, the whole movie characters would have horrified reactions to the theat of, seemingly actual Finland,
While I dont think adding Kissy the kissyfish improved the movie for the average viewer, imagine how much joy his daughter must have had from seeing herself in animated fish form :3
This wasn't for anyone except the team who made it. And that's okay!
@@rhysbaker2595 Well, that’s certainly one way to compliment it.
@@rhysbaker2595 Depends how much it was sold for tbh
Also kissingfish are actually real animals
They aren't orange tho but rather grayish green or sometimes pink
idk man, hearing a 3 year old say 'i think he's suffering from attention deficit disorder' with that distinctly 3 year old lisp brought me so much joy
DUDE I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO WATCHED THIS AS A KID! Seriously traumatized my parents with how much my sisters and I loved it
same
nice i watched it too, almost forgot about it
It’s good to know it wasn’t just a fever dream
YO SAME! I WAS SO INTO IT AS A KID LOL
I also watched this in a Hungarian dub, and I wonder if it was as decent as I remember- they basically had a free fuck do whatever with alot of music and dialogue really.
Granted for some reason I remember it ending with the pair actually dying for real? Did they just look at the ending and went «nah happy endings are for pussies» and cut it? I mean it wouldn’t actually be beyond the scope I can see a director pull
It is so weird being the MordeTwi Airplanes guy because anywhere you go, you have a chance of seeing someone bring up a drawing you made when you were nine. Wild! Thank you for acknowledging my existence in some vague way~!
Yo, the Mordetwi guy! I congratulate 9 y/o you for accidentally creating one of the best images in Internet history.
EDIT: I posted this during the worst panic attack I have had and I sincerely forgot about this comment until I got the notifications.
Oh my god you’re the guy
omg... a legend...
Wait, really?
Hello there!!!
I feel like I’m seeing Jesus in the grocery store omg
Professional indie animator here. The fact this dude made a feature film in 4 years means he completed 3 seconds of animation every day.
Meaning an average 54 drawings of multiple characters, every day! This is mind boggling. So far my biggest crunch was my thesis film which was 5 min in 6 months, and only had 2 characters and definitely wasn't as smooth as this (even the portions that are animated with After effects Puppet tool instead of traditionally).
Not only that, he also drew the backgrounds, drew the cleanup, coloring. Each task that's professionally delegated to a different artist!
This movie is more creator focused than Tommy Wiseau's The Room.
On Wikipedia it says that every frame took him less than two minutes to draw. That's just incredible
@feedfancier bro just made a comment to brag that he animates too
I really should have thought critically about your username before clicking your channel to see some animations, then I would have been startled by vore 💀
@@garrettoneill3711 me too my friend, me too..
@@garrettoneill3711 same and ive done it to this guy more than once over the course of 4 months... i guess i never learn from my mistakes that if someone is named "feedfancier," they're probably into vore.
Okay but THE FACT THAT THIS WAS ANIMATED BY ONE PERSON YET STILLL LOOKS BETTER THEN 50% OF THE DISNEY DIRECT TO DVD SEQUELS
Right? It's actually amazing he did everything alone
no honestly, regardless of how good or bad the movie was, that man has my respect
Honestly that guys an inspiration for me as an artist, if he can animate a whole entire movie by just himself I can get my lazy procrastinating self to make a 3 minute fully coloured animatic lmao
Yeah, it's sad he didn't or couldn't get someone to help him with the script, because he's clearly a world-class animator.
it’s honestly some of the best animation i’ve ever seen just from one person and not a studio
11:40 "I'm pretty sure there are blue seals?"
*Missed opportunity to say, NAVY seals*
25:36 Okay, but the moment when he says "she's dead"... is so good, like the background turn suddenly black! The silent after this! Only cut this romeo reaction and give more silent after hmm... perfect.
I thought Bobsheaux edited that in his video. I had no idea that it actually turned grey! Huge missed opportunity for someone to make a GTA V "Wasted" joke.
This could have been so much more dramatic if Romeo hadn't made that stupid face when he told him she's dead.
The crew edited the clip a little bit so it looks like the sky suddenly turns black, but it fades more in the actual film. There was a long pause between “she’s” and “dead”.
10:56 Are you telling me Juliette basically said "It could never be. Not because you're a rabbit but because you're black!"
The ghost story english dub is funny
HaveyouacceptedJesusasyourpersonalsavior?!
"Think of a big black man chasing you "
OH! SHIROTABI! OH!
Whatever! Just fill the hole, hole-filler!
@@loujainehellali6883 "Well, he's not racist..."
I think the best thing in this whole movie is that the girl elephant seal is accidentally trans, because only male elephant seals have the big noses
Trans Princess, oh yeah!
Diversity win!!

Best trans rep ever seen in a kid's movie ever
Ew
Edit:
Lol
When I was a freshman in high school, our english teacher wasn't very good at teaching but he was a super chill guy. When we read romeo and juliet, he had us watch literally every movie adaptation of it ever afterwards during class. So this movie has been living rent free in my head for like a decade now, I'm glad to see other people know about it.
Did you see the one that was set in (iirc) Jersey and they had guns, but they spoke in unmodified Old English straight from the play?
@@DELTARYZ YES that was my favorite one we saw lol
@@DELTARYZWhat's the name of this? You've piqued my interest
Oh my God, did he make you guys watch Romeo x Juliet, the anime adaptation?
Oh my fricking GOD this comment section is golden damn! The Romeo and Juliet the anime adaptation made me almost laugh out loud
That’s it. I refuse any more excuses. I demand that next Valentine’s Day, Schaff reviews the animated musical classic, Gnomeo and Juliet. I bed of you crab man, this is all I ask of you and our lord and saviour Tamatoa 🙏
"Juliet is dead!" "Oh women! It's always something!" that line is unironically hilarious.
I have to give props to the creator for making this almost entirely on his own. Greater project than most of us will achieve.
The second greatest adaption of Romeo and Juliet. Only second to Gnomeo and Juliet.
What part. What are this? Who are th why is he blue. Letters have blue@Lovemeew48
He should have done an unironic review of that.
I will find you…
There is no need to state the obvious. Everyboby Gnomes that.
Now THATS PEAK FICTION RIGHT THERE.
this couples fursonas being aquatic animals is extremely adorable to me
I am absolutely floored it only took him 4.5 years to animate EVERYTHING good lord.
Juliet: Freaking died
The Prince: "sighs" Women. ☕️
How could Schaf forget the best iteration of love a love story, Gnomeo and Juliet?
Bro same.
Naw clearly the greatest love story is Goat Story
Such literary genius such as "Who's your gnomey?"
This movie is amazing, but Sherlock gnomes is easily the best. Some who have watched this movie might say, it is a w for Watson
What about twilight?
20:57
Wake up babe, new Shark Island Lore just DROPPED
Kudos to the editor!
What the fish said at 26:31 was already hilarious but if she had said "I think he is suffering from _Autism_ _Spectrum_ _Disorder_ " instead I would have absolutely lost it
That’s “racist” towards people with autism

It’s kind of amazing how a Romeo & Juliet knockoff with seals has a better villain song than Disney’s 100th year celebratory movie
This is the thanks I get?
@@UltimateDespairadoand this is the thanks i get
@@gdplayer8768 I’m disgusted, I’m revolted. I’ve dedicated my entire life to our lord and savior Jesus Christ, and this is the thanks I get?!!
My sister showed my father "This is the Thanks I Get?" and he said he related to the song on a spiritual level. He said it perfectly captures the experience of being an exasperated and tired dad.
I just realized that it's way more Disney's villain song as a company, than Magnifico's villain song.
They spent a hundred years making everyone's dreams come true, and now that they've become corrupt, greedy and incompetent, they see all their failures as the people's fault. They inadvertently made an almost self aware song in one of their worst movies to date XD
EVERY TIME IT CUTS TO THE DAD SAYING "ROMEO" IN THAT MONOTONE-ASS VOICE I DIE LAUGHING
"Romeo and Juliet are seals. That's right, Romeo and Juliet are seals!"
I was unironically obsessed with the movie when I was a kid. I have no idea why, even with the low budget production, but it was my go-to favorite movie for YEARS. It was on Netflix when i first saw it, and when it disappeared from the platform I was literally heartbroken. Couldn't find it for years after that. Revisiting it now, I'm like... how did survive watching this on repeat?
First saber, now Schaff. I'm surprised how many people know about this. And honestly, I'm just impressed that this whole movie was animated by one single guy. That can't be easy regardless of quality. Shout out to Phil for carrying this project.
You forgot Bobshaux.
I know right? Quite an undertaking.
ONE GUY ANIMATED THIS??? Maybe I'll consider watching it
And Musical Hell did this long before Saberspark
Bobshaux is so underrated @@pennysanchez7656
The movie where they go back in time to the 16th century to get humans out of Romeo and Juliet
That's right, it's the movie where they go back in time to the 16th century to get humans out of the movie.
Why does that sound watchable and can someone greenlight it?
27:03 music fan fact: the reason why that reprise of "twinkle twinkle little star" sounds sad is because it's been transposed from a Major scale (that we commonly associate with happiness and brightness) to a Minor scale (usually associated with sadness and darkness)
Kudos to LavenderWhale for single-handedly carrying the fandom on her shoulders for the past 3 months. She's put in the most effort out of the entire 18 years of this movie's existence.

I FORGOT THAT THIS MOVIE EXISTED UNTIL NOW BUT I WAS OBSESSED WITH THIS AS A KID FOR SOME REASON
The difference in animation between this and Nibbelink's _Puss in Boots_ is jaw-dropping, bro
Imagining Phil explaining to his daughter to voice those terminator references 😭
In fairness, I knew about those Terminator quotes literally over a decade prior to actually watching the movie. Shoot, this isn't even the first time Terminator has been referenced in a kids animation, Fairly Odd Parents also has some pretty explicit Terminator references (Good ole Arnold Schwartzengerman, yes that was the character's in-universe name)
I think I was at least aware of "Hasta la vista, baby!" by age five. That quote has been referenced so many times in various media that it's impossible not to hear it at some point.
"We get a sad, instrumental reprise of Twinkle-Twinkle little star"
... Ok, that got me. This movie can't be real, you made it up, for sure
No seriously, that’s what actually happens in the movie that even Musical Hell made fun of it!
The credits in comic sans is just icing on the cake
I feel like this movie is a great example of just making things for yourself. The fact this guy did most of the work is absolutely mind blowing and respectable, regardless of its actual quality. And that’s why I feel like more content creators should have the mindset of “I’m doing this primarily for myself”, because you get a lot of sincere and heartfelt stuff outta that. And if the public can get some enjoyment out of it then that’s definitely a great bonus! But I feel like your creativity, art, and content should be primarily made for yourself, for your own enjoyment and fulfillment, rather than for whatever audience is the biggest or what’ll make the most money. Something that is not very good in quality but is earnest will always be a thousand times more enjoyable than something that has good quality but is soulless. So for everyone out there that makes content, please go out and make it. Make it badly, but make it!
25:51: I think we found the perfect song to go with the Bully Maguire dance. It works in synce too well.

Fun trivia: This film was animated using an early version of Moho (formerly Anime Studio), an animation program. Moho would later go on to be used to make The Book of Kells, Song of the Sea, Wolfwalkers, and My Father's Dragon. (I found out about this because I bought Moho and use it for some of my animation work.)
Cartoon Saloon superiority
@@pjy3265💪
I used to watch song of the sea over and over, it was my favorite!!
If I had a nickel for every time Moho was used for an animated seal movie, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
@@generalzar0ffyeah honestly I thought this was a video about song of the sea at first
I’VE BEEN LOOKING YEARS TO FIND A GOOD VIDEO-ESSAY ON THIS MOVIE…MY JAW HIT THE FLOOR WHEN I SAW THIS
Watching this movie while knowing it was all made by one man is like watching an Olympic runner break a speed record while running around the track backwards. It doesn't succeed but it's still an impressive feat.
Keep in mind, there is ANOTHER Romeo and Juliet movie, told through lawn gnomes.
Yes. I watched that in my childhood, and that was actually fun.
Ok but Gnomeo and Juliet is fantastic. It's such a fun movie and Gnomeo and Juliet are adorable ❤
Oh and there's a sequel to Gnomeo and Juliet but Sherlock Gnomes is there. Yes his name is Sherlock Gnomes
@@yeeyeemfs7055 I haven't watched the sequel, and if I'm being honest, I don't think I'm missing much.
AND ITS PEAK FICTION. BENIE IS MY GOAT!!
“SHROOM LETS GO KICK SOME GRASS 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥”
This may be an insane film but Phil Nibbelink at least deserves credit for (mostly) single-handedly creating an entire animated film. Even if it’s a terrible product, that’s still a difficult task for one person to do. Doesn’t improve the film but A for effort.
The code for ET for the 2600 was the same way
There was a composer and a graphics guy but the code it runs on was 100% Howard Scott Warshaw
24:15 youve never thought of an idea so genius that you just have to evil laugh
Kissing is actually the cutest thing and it feels like he just wanted to put his daughter in the movie, wich is also the cutest thing
HOLY SHIT THE MEMORIES THIS JUST UNLOCKED
Honestly I never forgot about it, but I won't lie it's been over 10 years since I've thought about it
My childhood just smacked me in the face; I half-thought this movie was a dream once, until I re-discovered it’s existence a few years ago.

Hey Google
THE WAY MY EYES WIDENED WHEN I RECOGNIZED THE THUMBNAIL HOLY CRAP I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT THIS MOVIE
"DOESN'T THAT MAKE YOU SAD????"
- James said, with audible glee
I remember in my english class when we were talking about different adaptations of romeo and juliet, one of them was the ad for this movie and the entire class collectively went "what the actual heck"
This movie is some bizarre combination of The Little Mermaid, The Pebble and the Penguin, the animated Titanic trilogy, and the entire filmography of Dingo Pictures.
7:57 "They roll around in the snow for a bit and presto they are white now"
That's not how snow works.
I mean... it's on the seafloor, ain't it? That's _marine_ snow, which is detritus that I think would probably cling to their bodies better than real snow. That being said, marine snow is mostly made of dead animal bits, so that seal was essentially rolling around in corpse dust.

Things that are surprisingly faithful to the source material.
1. In the original, the Prince does threaten to banish any Montagues or Capulets who cause trouble in Verona. Of course, in the play, it was because he didn't want them disrupting the peace. The place of banishment is just an ordinary town and later, Romeo speaks of feeling bad because even rats could live in Verona, but he cannot. It didn't need to be a threatening place like shark island.
2. Mercutio was indeed a jokester and he could be distasteful. Of course, I doubt Shakespeare was the type to put references to his previous plays in the one your currently watching.
3. At the start of the play, Romeo was still sad over the end of his previous relationship with Rosalyn (who I'm half convinced Bill Watterson got the name of Calvin's babysitter from). However, while Romeo was indeed young, he was more in the 13-15 year old range. Here, he and Juliet look about half that age.
4. Friar Lawrence's plan here is pretty much the same as it is in the play. In the play, it gets thwarted because the intended messenger to Romeo gets stuck in a house with bubonic plague.
My understanding was that Juliet had just turned 13 and Romeo was around 19, in the original play
They also seemed to leave out that Juliet is technically a rebound.
@insertnamehere917
Romeo age was actually never stated in the original play, all it really said was that he was young
Juliet's though can be anywhere from 11 to 13 years old
@@Bucket-the-lizard Juliet is specifically said to be 13 “Come Lammas Eve at night shall she be fourteen” aka two weeks time in the play. You are right that Romeo’s age is never stated, but I always thought it was approximated to 19, but looking it up seems that is usually approximated to 16 (hopefully to make the age gap less awk)
@@insertnamehere917 I'm not sure why their age gap matters. The story was never meant to be romantic, they both die at the end, and the only thing that connects them is the fact their love is forbidden. I've never heard why Juliet loves Romeo, or why he loves her, just that they simply do. If anything, isn't the awkward age gap more proof that their love was never something to root for?
Mercutio is the best character in this movie, just this vibing motormouth smart-aleck who revels in all the chaos.
17:47
Especially because in the play, the masses at large were getting real sick of the endless feuding between the families and wanted it to end, so it's weird that the other characters would suddenly care about the family politics.
Either way, we gotta give credit for the director for working on his own on the ENTIRE movie. I mean, the only crew, apart from himself, were probaly only the voice actors. Gotta give props to him.

My family had a pile of dvds of old, low-budget animated movies and at some point I only watched the movies from there. We had *a lot* of those movies, so I didn't even notice this one until I was around 6 years old. It was like it came out of nowhere. I watched it. Again. And again. And 15 more times. I loved this movie so much, that I separated the disc from the rest and put it in a special place, all on its own, so that I didn't lose it. Not long after my obsession with this film started, it ended because the disc magically disappeared. No one knew where it went, and I didn't move after the last time that I put it in its place. Needles to say, my family were sick of me watching this masterpiece and wouldn't even look me in the eye when answering my questions, so I fell into deep depression at the age of 6.
My point is that this movie had a fucking dub. A low-budget Bulgarian dub, on dvd.
I still have a Czech dubbed dvd of it, used to watch it a lot as a kid as well lol, the movie always felt really surreal to me and i'm glad that people are starting to recognize it again
@@karelcz8071 i also had a czech dub of this movie, i forgot it existed until now, unlocked forgotten memories
A version Romeo and Juliet with seals animated by one guy, pfft next you’ll be telling me there’s one with Gnomes and Elton John music…………..HEY WAIT A MINUTE!!!
The most unfortunate part about this video is that when you said the villain song was better than This Is The Thanks I Get I got curious and listened to it so this video indirectly caused me to listen to This Is The Thanks I Get
So who's song was better, the Prince's or the King's?
I was so shocked seeing this thumbnail it brought me to the depths of my childhood 😭
You’re telling me this is the Romeo and Juliet adaptation where they are seals? That’s wild
@Lovemeew48 Can it, robot!
That's less weird than an adaptation with garden gnomes
@@sonicfanboy3375 nah that one at least has the pun
It's funny how the quality oxidizes more and more into flash animation the further you get in the movie.
Ah, so you HAVE seen Gnomeo and Juliet! Review when?
It’s seriously impressive this man completed all this animation by himself with no help??? Seriously I want to have that dedication
The twinkle twinkle little star reprise during the death scene lost me lol. That said, I am geniunely so happy this movie was able to come out. The fact that a single guy written and animated this is so impressive, and I geniunely hope this movie inspires others to create art
YEAH ME TOO.
We need to appreciate the fact that it if we'rent for Jess we wouldn't be discovering the masterpiece of a movie Free Bird was
I’ve not seen it in a while, do they play Free Bird during the credits?
No, I think Schaf already knew about it, she found out about this tho
@@joshwhite5730 1:28 She suggested them the movie because of it's popularity
@@everwix7692 yeah, the popularity Schafrillis brought to it
24:49 okay this got me
Romeo and Juliet, sealed with a kiss has genuinely changed my life for the better. I was able to pay the mortgage on my house off and get a girlfriend and understand the deep complexities of societal differences. I am forever indebted to this cinematic masterpiece. this is why we need Phil Nicholson to make the Romeo and Juliet sealed with a kiss live action remake. Only then will the prophecy be fulfilled.
Hopefully the seals will show actual emotion unlike the Lion King remake.
When I was a kid I was completely obsessed with this movie, I watched it over and over again multiple times a day every day until I could recite the entire script word for word and I tried to recreate the whole movie as a comic with wolves on Disney Create (it is now gone forever because the site shut down)
I love how Romeo and Juliet’s voice actors are actually married irl
bro, i was trying to find that movie for AGES, you saved my life, thank you so much!
"Senior thesis on adaptations of Twelfth Night" ahhhhh my fave Shakespeare play!! Love it!!
One autistic kid at my school who was obsessed with sea life said this was his favorite movie. Some people appreciate this I guess.
Define "autistic" in this scenario
Surprised it wasn’t Finding Nemo
Why did we needed to know he was autistic
Could be worse. His favorite could be the horrendously animated Finding Nemo Christian ripoff.
I think it’s normal to appreciate flawed things sometimes. There was a movie that I watched as a kid, that wasn’t very good. But I loved it. I don’t want to say what it is though. Because it is a bit bad. And I don’t want to be attacked. Lol 😂
honestly the fact that the majority of this is made by 1 person makes this impossible for me to hate it, regardless of quality
I appreciate the effort and time spent, but I still hate it. This man has no business making movies. Lol Holy buckets.
1:13 That energy from schaffrillas had me dying! that's how people should greet their partners.
I was really hoping you would bring in Jess for this video, and I'm so glad you did!
I had this movie on DVD as a child. Funnily enough, it was my first encounter with the story of Romeo and Juliet
Weirdly enough, same for me, but I saw it on Netflix. I was half convinced the movie was a fever dream until today.
also my first encounter except I think I just saw the ending of it while waiting for a dentist appointment??
I remember freshman year we read Romeo and Juliet and then the whole class was asking if we could watch gnomeo and Juliet or the gang Leo DiCaprio version and I was like:
“The seal one!!”
… it was dead silent after that
I was one of few blessed to watch this on Netflix as a kid! Seeing anyone else talk about it is almost like a fever dream, but thank you for spreading the good word. You truly are doing the lords work.
Tbh it's nice to know that both James's and Jess's fursonas are the same relative size
Ah yes, the best version of Romeo and Juliet, which I first found out existed because of TvTropes of all things.
I first found it while scrolling through the R&J wikipedia article with a friend. This was one of the ones that stood out the most. The other two were the one were they are opposing pizzerias and the one where the twist and forbidden aspect is that they're brother and sister.
Edit: I forgot the one that takes place in 1940s Germany.
@@abhainn35 please tell me the one that takes place in '40s Germany doesn't involve who I think it does
@@abhainn35 The brother and sister one sounds so disturbing. Why the fuck do people try and normalize incest?!
@@Phantomphan613 It involves what you think it does, and Julia is Jewish.
Oh god, I remember this movie, I saw it when I was little... It was like a fever dream.
@Seeyou776oil up imma be there in 10
26:03 Listen, weasel bro, you ain't the top like the rapping dog from “Titanic: The Legend Goes On…” not even close.
How about the shark from Tentaclino?
Dude I remember watching this on TH-cam when I was a kid, it was so weird but charming and it still is honestly. Was a treat to see you guys talk about it!
I can back up that, yes, this movie was available on Netflix back in the day. It was over 10 years ago when Netflix had zero competition, so just about everything was on there, including a lot of obscure content that wouldn't be on there nowadays. I haven't thought about this movie since until it became a meme within the SchaffGang.
Man this just makes me miss old Netflix; I used to watch Netflix all the time as a kid and as a result I watched a lot of obscure/overseas shows and movies that wouldn’t normally be available in my country. I remember most of the flicks/shows I watched ranging from being decent to legitimately really good, and I have fond memories of them.
Overall there was just a lot more variety. You never quite knew what you were gonna find, whether it be bargain bin garbage or hidden gems.
@@roadkill-creations7628 Also forgot to mention I used to watch Netflix on my PS3
This is the movie where they have Romeo and Juliet turn into seals!
That's right!
This is the movie where they turn Romeo and Juliet turn into seals!
... Who are you talking to?
I saw this on netflix as a kid and beyond a couple niche youtube reviews I saw years later I was sure it was a weird dream. It's the most confused I was about media as a kid, and I have a weird sense of nostalgia for it lol. Great vid!
This video has kept me sane, thank you
27:04 Dude, this had me laughing WAY harder than I should’ve! Man, that’s just a FANTASTIC way of making a dramatic “death” scene, just have a children’s nursery rhyme play over it!
After all the times I saw Schaff log this on Letterboxd, this is like getting to a One Piece arc where a key character finally shows up after being alluded to for years.
This is definitely one of my guilty pleasure films. I grew up with it, and never stopped loving it despite the quality. Knowing now that it was made by just one man impresses me more than anything.
11:45 the accidental race allegory is actually freaking hilarious
