It proves that it’s just that good, I watched all these movies again after this video, and it did not regret like 3 years ago when I first had watched it
19:45 a funny moment that I think a lot of people miss on first watch is Lonnie checking to see if her hair was changed back too after Jane's. Like nah girl you god, Mal actually fw you!
@@lilybethkuhn9650it mean “fvck with” basically saying they are cool or get along alright so like they said “you good, Mal actually fw you” it means that they get along and that Lonnie hasn’t done anything to make Mal make her hair go back lol
Evie is such a mood in this trilogy 😭 she's literally a mix of bad and good. Her "evil" side has style, even her movements especially when fighting/in a battle omg love her
I still get nostalgia for this film I remember watching this movie for the first time back in 2015 so excited and the upcoming teaser for it. My favorite would have to be Did I Mention,If Only,and Set It Off
I LOVE Uma! Sometimes I even favor Uma over Mal because Mal gets so wishy-washy about leaving the Barrier open so all VKs can come to Auradon because then that unleashes new evil, but Uma was always proactive towards VKs having a better life.
Idk if someone’s already commented this, but you asked about the isle school. It’s described in the companion novels, specifically The Isle of the Lost (book 1). Basically, they have classes like Selfishness 101 (taught by Gothel), Evil Schemes (an AP class taught by Lady Tremaine), and Weird Science (which is just science but they think it’s weird that they’re not meant to harm anyone. Taught by Yen Sid… who I still don’t know the origin of). It’s all very on-the-nose, but it’s worth the read if you enjoy campy books.
everyone misses the point of that scene with Jane in the first movie. She's insecure and thinks she needs beauty magic to be Beautiful when she's already gorgeous. Mal doesn't think Jane is ugly, she's just playing on her insecurities to try and get the wand in the open.
The school on the island is only discussed & talked about in the prequel book where Mal & Eevie weren’t friends at first. Also how Mal was having dreams about Ben before meeting him. The animated series is great too
@@VishalTalwar-w5c what?? You don't just correct someone's grammar in a youtube comments section? And I spelled it correctly? Maybe you spell it different in your country?

I'm not surprising that villains don't care about kids. All they want is power (Jafar) Revenge (Maleficent) or killing innocent animals| kid (Cruella and the Queen) Of course they won't spend their time raising their kids. I also feel bad for them. Carlos is only there to clean his mother's coats, Jay to steal a treasure. At least Evie and Mal got advices from their mothers, it's better than nothing 😅
Your reactions are so iconic, and I've lowkey been wanting you to do these since you did Shadow and Bone, because I kept thinking about this Mal every time we saw Mal Ortesev in the other show XD Looking forward to the next films!
I find it sad that Mal was willing to drown just to save Ben, because he was the key to her getting the wand and to making her mother proud. Like that's such a dangerous complex to have.
I was very surprised at how much I enjoyed the Descendants movies. I usually don't like the newer Disney Channel movies but while Descendants does have the corniness the newer movies have, I still find them a fun watch. The songs are catchy, they have interesting storylines and I like the characters' dynamics. I will say though the costumes look cheap as hell but that's OK. In the end it is still a Disney Channel movie so can't expect big budget costumes. I also do feel like Kristen Chenoweth was an odd choice to play Maleficent but she was still fun to watch.
@@madnessarcade7447 I didn't. I said I don't expect high budget for DCOMs or really for a lot of made for TV movies. It doesn't mean its criticism. Its just the way it is.
This movie brings back so much nostalgia, still remember watching this with my older sister and her now fiancée and she said it felt like when she was little and she was excited to watch high school musical. I just found out the same director filmed both movies 😂 the soundtrack still holds up.
This was a great reaction! The first film was a great introduction to the Descendants universe. The overall message is that anyone has the capability to do good or do evil. So you shouldn’t judge others until you get to know them. There is a book series that take place in between the films as well as an animated series. In the prequel book, “The Isle of the Lost”, we learn more about our main VKs (Villain Kids) and AKs (Auradon Kids). As for the ending, keep in mind that they just chose to be good, and they’re still gonna have to face other obstacles like temptations or fitting in. Also they’re not the only VKs who want to get off the island. The real irony is that most of the Auradon parents and kids are hypocrites like how Beast judges the kids based on their parentages when he got cursed for his own vanity or that Chad thinks his family’s royal status gives him the right to mistreat others when his own mother was given the same treatment and that his father fell in love with her kind heart instead of her appearance. Also, it’s been noticed that like in Disney’s Zombies, which I highly recommend that trilogy as well, Mal and Ben had just met practically, and they would need some time before they share true love’s kiss. #RIPCameronBoyce 😈👩🏻🎤🪄🐲💜💙💛❤️
descendants are always novels girl, you should check em out, they tell stories before and in between the movies ! then they tell u to see whats next in the movies at the end of each one, there are 4 novels btw
Descendants star Dove Cameron and author Melissa de la Cruz sat down for an in-depth interview about the series and explained just how everything works together. "I was informed very early on...by the head of Disney Channel, Gary Marsh, that the reason this project has taken so long was because Disney Corporate had to approve of somebody officially embellishing on the original stories, because that is what we're doing," Dove explained. "Anything else, like Once Upon a Time, hasn't actually been an official embellishment on the story," she continued, "We. Are. Canon." Descendants was actually the first time Disney was officially touching the classic tales of their movies. "That's why it took so long, because apparently, Disney corporate was like 'That's a terrible idea, we don't want to mess with the original stuff.' And so [Gary] told me that. He was like, 'This is the first time that this is ever going to happen.'" Dove adds, "Disney Channel is it's own thing, it's own beast, so to be told you're involved in the classics is like, there's nothing more delicious than that. I think that's why we're all so invested in the series and the franchise itself because it's the first time!" "It's the deepest honor, so for me, it was less nerve-wracking and the most delicious opportunity."*
Omg I can scream. Finally someone else has read that! I remember reading this back in 2017 and I believe this was around the time dove and Melissa were promoting the third book rise of the isle of the lost. This is why I always get so frustrated and annoyed whenever people claim descendants copied ever after high because that was never the case. Descendants or more specifically Disney playing with their Disney princess/Disney villain franchises has always been something they’ve wanted to do for awhile on the Disney channel, they just needed the proper concept and rights to use the walt Disney characters.
I don't know this for sure, but at 22:57, I'm pretty sure that blonde woman in a sparkly pink dress that matches Audrey and her grandmother's dresses is supposed to be Aurora.
They discuss the school on the island in the books. It's called Dragon Hall and the classes are stuff like selfishness 101, advanced vanity, weird science, evil schemes, artists and thieves, ect. The headmaster is Dr. Facilier and the teachers are people like Lady Tremaine, Mother Gothel, Gaston and Madam Mim.
Watching this movie again after the 3rd one just makes me so disappointed because it's so clear they were worried they lost their older audience and kidified the last one. The plot barely makes sense and pretty much all the characters have been watered down except for Gil who's the same and Uma who's still awesome.
I agree Descendants 3... wasn't the best. Since the second one was pretty damn amazing, I had high hopes for the third one. Felt too cocomelony. The second one is way more badass but still family friendly. The songs were by far the best Descendants songs too! I also loved Mal's pink hair bangs era, she looked so cuuuuute! ❤ yh it's a shame we won't get a movie like that again from Descendants.
Hi Lakia Im just now seeing your reaction to lion king 2 simba;s pride and when you sang we are one song I felt it, It was like you were singing from the soul about you are queen in your family..
So happy bro like when you watch it like in a row or for the first time or over and over it never gets old but also there coing out with a new one between the end of 2023 or beginning of 2024.
This series is my guilty please, the books are ✨ INCREDIBLE ✨ and the movies are also pretty good, regardless of their flaws, they’re still so fun to watch
I also graduated in 2017, but surprisingly enough descendants was quite popular amongst the girls in my grade. We all enjoyed booboo stewart lmao. But I just like keeping up with DCOMs bc I like a trashy movie every now and then, since I don't really like serious movies. But if you ask me any new show on disney channel then I can't help you with that lol
No joke, I just watched this film last night with my aunts who had never seen it before. I had no idea that Lakia posted this video the same day! I used to play the "Isle of the Lost Rush" game on the Disney website all through middle school. I think maybe Audrey was raised by the Fairies more than her mother did. Since the fairies fought with each other, maybe Audrey inherited some of that bad blood.
Loved Descendants as a kid. Just wondering if you would react to more MCU movies. I don't know if you take recommendations or even is interested in it but honestly I just wanna see your reaction to the Guardians of the Galaxy
when i first watched this i was like 10y and i really loved by the time i was 11 i started ouat and it became my favorite show. idk i just love the way we ouat girlies love descendants the other way around
