Fun fact: When DreamWorks was working on this movie, they were working on Shrek at the same time. If the animators slacked off making this movie, they would send them to work on Shrek instead as a punishment, which they called getting “Shreked!”
And ironically, the project they weren't taking seriously and considered working on it as a humiliation for an artist turned out to be way more successful and spawned 3 more sequels and even spin-offs.
I wish DreamWorks would do more films like Prince of Egypt and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish instead of more films where hair creatures sing pop songs and hire terrible people to voice some of them
@@Matty002 you suspended your disbelief for many other things in this movie, its inherent in all storytelling. im genuinely curious why those would be less annoying
I mean, they still do! Spiderverse is a famous example - took them 9 months to animate spider noir iirc (the sequel too). It might just feel this way due to Disney releasing..their current stuff right now😅😭
The fact that Kor makes the most jokes during this movie while the others are more subdued is so funny to me. Kor finds a moment to let his Testament knowledge shine and he grabs it by the throat. Man was Not afraid to make some sacriligeous jokes
I still don’t get why some people won’t give this movie a chance, just because it has to do with God. That's like me refusing to watch Hercules just because the Greek gods are in it.
It’s honestly crazy how stacked the cast of this movie is. Val Kilmer as Moses, Ralph Finnes as Rameses, Sandra Bullock, Jeff Goldblum, the list goes on!
Yeah it’s honestly kinda funny how they missed that part. They made Aaron such a nerd in this. The first thing my rabbi said in my Judaism class during the exodus lesson was “have any of you seen the prince of Egypt? Okay, forget everything about it.”
I'm an atheist, and I love this movie. Idec. Dreamworks should've done more of these man. In an alternate universe, dreamworks did the entire bible and moved onto other religious mythologies outside of Christianity, and also did the "The Road to..." series that they planned to as like a side project. We would be eating so good.
Sadly they did a couple more bible stories but without the same talents and an extremely small budget they weren’t very impressive or successful. In a way though, those attempts falling short only makes The Prince of Egypt stand out that much more as lightning in a bottle. We did get Sinbad though, which wasn’t half bad either and definitely had super impressive animation.
@@sodathejunkerHonestly for a direct to DVD prequel Joseph was pretty good. IMAO I honestly wish Shrek wasn’t as successful cause it completely changed DreamWorks trajectory.
@@thedukeofchutney468 Tbh it would be even better if Shrek made the success he made but DreamWorks noticed that THIS film they did would be an wonderful path instead. I can't imagine a world without Shrek...
Just to give you an idea of how hard the animators went for this movie, the gorgeous 4 minute Red Sea sequence took them 2 YEARS to animate (that’s some insane dedication)
Agree and Tresure planet too is a good movie! One of my favorite Disney movies ever with Atlantis, Lilo and Stitch, Hercules, Aladdin and Mulan. Mary poppins too is great 😄
Isnt that islam related? Because when allah showed himself he turned an entire Mountain to ash. Not sure if both Christianity and Islam have these things in common
my classmate is an Egyptian immigrant, who is a devout Christian, and loves DreamWorks movies. i was genuinly surprised he has not heard of this movie. I forced him to watch this and then not even 2 minutes into the oepning song he says "i hate this already, this isnt realistic" i go "wtf r u talking about?" "i know that temple, its on the wrong side of the river" wtf
As an atheist, I enjoy this movie. To me it is just telling a story and it's doing that in a masterful way. Wish more movies that told religious stories were like that.
I went to a private christian elementary school and they played this movie, this shit was SO fire. Every song is a bop, the animation and style is stunning. It doesn't shove religion down your throat, it's just retelling a bible story. Seriously amazing movie.
I saw this in the theater. At the end of the movie I remember my uncle telling me that after it was going to be the Ten Commandments. I thought it was the title of the sequel, I waited for it for years.
Yeah the supposed “sequel” they made was more like a prequel. I recommend Joseph Prince of Dreams if you haven’t seen it already. It doesn’t have the same budget but it’s a similar animation style and still has some BOPS!
@@chloeorr9880 Saw it, those movies were on TV quite a lot here in Italy. Sadly, I feel like they never understood what made the Prince of Egypt such a cult, and just took another random story from the bible. They never did something like The Prince of Egypt again, so big, epic and skillfully crafted.
This is one of those movies where just everything is incredible. The animation is still unparalleled nearly 30 years later, the entire voice cast is killing it, Hans Zimmer are putting in career best music. Val Kilmer's of course awsome, but Ralph Finnes' Ramses is legitimately one of the best written villain characters ever, let alone in animation.
2:23 I instantly screamed DVD MOMENT! (yk, where the dvd shows multiple clips of the movie on the menu. This was the Prince of Egypt's DVD menu background.)
This is definitely loved by critics and audiences alike. I could even show this movie to my parents, and they would love it. I’m just saying, if you ever want to play a movie at church, definitely play this one. It’s so authentic.
I mean not really. It’s not really biblically accurate. Moses knew he was a Hebrew his entire life. He wasn’t the pharaoh’s adopted brother. Aaron wasn’t a nerd like he is here. Maybe it’s different cuz I’m Jewish but the first thing my rabbi said during our exodus lesson was “Has anyone seen the movie The Prince of Egypt?… Okay forget everything about it.”
The song "Deliver Us" is a banger and so is "The Plagues." To think this was the same company that did "Dadadadadada Afro Circus." There is also a musical soundtrack with some nice additions, like "Footprints on the Sand."
Ah "The Prince of Egypt" one of DreamWorks greatest cinematic gems! To this day it's one of my all time favorite retellings of Exodus!!! And the songs are just so damn, Catchy! And I mean ear worm level catchy!
My favourite sequence in this film is the plagues affecting Egypt, and it shows all the firstborn sons dying, and this also affects Rameses' son and even with all of this torment being brought on Rameses by Moses...he still won't let his people go. Just such a well done sequence.
I've heard Dreamworks might be remaking some of their films in live action, and I will legit do my best, despite not being very religious, to declare holy war on them if they dare to touch this masterpeice. If they want to do anything with The Prince Of Egypt, they better just re-release it in theaters. Nothing more, nothing less.
I'm mad that Shrek was the big success that put Dreamworks on the map when The Prince of Egypt was supposed to be the movie to do that, and it absolutely should have
I'm seen this movies dozens upon dozens of times and I never ONCE noticed the water moving in the background of that scene. Goddamn, this movie continues to blow me away.
This is one of my favorite movies and I bought a subscription to the twitch just to watch this without ads with them. The stream chat was so fun and insane and we were singing along with the songs together. Good memories
I’m a Christian woman who has Sephardic Jewish ancestry and I study history, one of the things that a lot of people don’t realize is the fact that many of the First Families of Virginia within the American colonies were secretly of Jewish descent and I enjoy watching this movie because of my own religious beliefs and from my own enjoyment of studying history and the culture of my ancestors.
There's an unofficial "sequel" to this called Joseph: King of Dreams It was a straight to VHS movie and the quality absolutely dipped but it'd be fun to see a reaction for such an underrepresented movie
9:58 This is why we should learn Esperanto - pretty much any word can be either a noun, an adjective, a verb or an adverb, depending what vowel it ends in. For example: _kato_ "cat" _kata_ "feline" or "of a cat" _kate_ "in a feline manner" _kati_ ... I guess it means... to be a cat?
This movie is SUCH a Masterpiece. Well said. The animation, voice cast and songs are spectacular. And the rising of the Water!! Btw: I'm a Christian and I freaking love you guys and your jokes!!
As an agnostic with some religious trauma in my family, i absolutely love this movie. Its telling a story, instead of trying to scream "convert to this religion!!" Its really a beautiful form of storytelling :)
@@vossboss220 well yeah, you can't expect Joseph, King of Dreams to be as good as one of the best movies of all time, It shouldn't be expected. Also, it doesn't really matter. He asked for more movies Dreamworks did like this one, and I delivered.
I actually like that they didnt spend much time setting up the romance because it was just a minor part of the movie. You still get the idea of how they grew closer and they needed the screentime for other much more important scenes
I mean if you watched OG Dreamwork when they did 2D animation, they flat out perfected it even more so then Disney at the time. Sadly they went CGI which, don't get me wrong, a lot of their CGI is just beautiful... but watch their version of Sinbad and you'll realize what we're missing these days.
Kor is right lol the specificity of his religious humor really is on point, I wouldn’t have expected him to know or mention Caleb and Sophia from the Jehovah’s Witness videos
Fun fact: They added the scene of Rhamses spinning Moses’s wig much later into production, because when test audiences saw Moses remove it after he fled into the desert, they thought he’d just scalped himself, so they decided to add a much earlier scene to show that it’s just a wig.
5:39 by the way it has been tested that you can remember certain songs or ryhmes as a kid also the mom and the egyptain mom would meet often since the baby cant survive without the mothers milk, so when she would feed him she would sing him that luliby ps. the egyptain mom actually went and converted to the faith after the pharo let them go
6:22 I don't think anyone else noticed this but I love how a sound track from The Coffin of Andy and Leyley could be heard faintly in the background. PERFECT execution (If ykyk)
They don’t show it in the movie, but the reason Moses is so scared when Ramses is about to say that he’s going to finish what his father started, is because God had just told Moses that the Pharaoh would choose the final plague, and Moses knew he was about to choose to have all the first born killed. Also, the directors explained that the reason they cut out any of the other times that Moses spoke to God, was because they wanted the burning bush scene to remain special.
You guys should definitely check out the Joseph movie as well made by Dreamworks, it's also really good. Also, fun fact, many Egyptians also put lamb's blood over their door so the Angel of Death will Pass Over their door as some converted before-hand.
the reason that the animation for Prince of Egypt is so good is because they had their best animators working on it because they thought it would be one of their best selling movies. when the animators messed up on Prince of Egypt, they were sent to work on Shrek and called it "getting shreked"
12:13 In the Bible, He was about 40 years old when he left Egypt, and he came back to Egypt about another 40 years later. In the movie Moses doesn't seem to have aged much at all.

@@prageruwu69nah fr 😂
14:38 a Bible with trigger warnings or ESRB ratings for each book or chapter would big fucking hilarious.
Oh boy, I'm already scared they're gonna make a joke about "spreading your legs" during the red sea scene
Did they?
Don't worry. Only a Beyblade joke was made.
@@lolitamolita5354 turns out they didn't lol
I was afraid they'd make a period joke when Moses turned the river to blood. 😮💨
fun fact! experts on judaism, christianity, and islam were all utilized in the making of this movie
I saw no aspect or theology of Islamic theory.
To be fair, there's not many distinction between each book so the reference are probably minimal
@@Adam-mv4fwthere's insane amounts of differences between the old testament and new testament not to mention the Quran.
@@Moody.Smiruai no like specifically moses's story. Both holy books basically told the same story
This movie is the hardest to rewatch.
The meeting between Moses and Rames 2 after they grow up is so hard to watch knowing what is coming.
I literally grew up with this movie. I'm agnostic and I'll love it no matter what. I was so excited when I saw this video because THE MUSIC IS A BOP!
You know that this held up extremely well bc of how good the fire and water effects are despite being from 1998
Wish wishes it had this good animation
17:48 as a beyblade fan i can say this is accurate
This is one of those christian films that were actually made for everyone to enjoy.
Moses parting the Red Sea with a beyblade is still my favorite thing in the world
I HAVE A FRIEND WHO USED TO BE OBSESSED WITH THIS MOVIE AND SHE WOULD TALK ABOUT HOW HOT MOSES WAS
Does Moses have Tumblr Sexyman potential?
@@IcyDiamondI think he should tbh
Real omg
I actually like that they didnt spend much time setting up the romance because it was just a minor part of the movie. You still get the idea of how they grew closer and they needed the screentime for other much more important scenes
80% of this video: OMG THIS ANIMATION
Valid commentary though
I mean if you watched OG Dreamwork when they did 2D animation, they flat out perfected it even more so then Disney at the time. Sadly they went CGI which, don't get me wrong, a lot of their CGI is just beautiful... but watch their version of Sinbad and you'll realize what we're missing these days.
Kor is right lol the specificity of his religious humor really is on point, I wouldn’t have expected him to know or mention Caleb and Sophia from the Jehovah’s Witness videos
Can't wait to see what else you have up your sleeve!
Fun fact:
They added the scene of Rhamses spinning Moses’s wig much later into production, because when test audiences saw Moses remove it after he fled into the desert, they thought he’d just scalped himself, so they decided to add a much earlier scene to show that it’s just a wig.
You know a movie is good if these guys make less jokes and more praise to it lol 😂
5:39 by the way it has been tested that you can remember certain songs or ryhmes as a kid also the mom and the egyptain mom would meet often since the baby cant survive without the mothers milk, so when she would feed him she would sing him that luliby
ps. the egyptain mom actually went and converted to the faith after the pharo let them go
6:22 I don't think anyone else noticed this but I love how a sound track from The Coffin of Andy and Leyley could be heard faintly in the background. PERFECT execution (If ykyk)
Dude when I first saw the clip all that I was thinking was “GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD GET OUT OF MY HEAD
9:15 NOT THE RECEDING HAIRLINE 😭
I miss such animation style and drive. Like I wish this approach to animation films was a thing again.
They don’t show it in the movie, but the reason Moses is so scared when Ramses is about to say that he’s going to finish what his father started, is because God had just told Moses that the Pharaoh would choose the final plague, and Moses knew he was about to choose to have all the first born killed.
Also, the directors explained that the reason they cut out any of the other times that Moses spoke to God, was because they wanted the burning bush scene to remain special.
Ngl, I’m not religious anymore. But this is objectively a good movie lol
You guys should definitely check out the Joseph movie as well made by Dreamworks, it's also really good.
Also, fun fact, many Egyptians also put lamb's blood over their door so the Angel of Death will Pass Over their door as some converted before-hand.
0:01 Or the only Christan cartoon who are not cringe and the only Christan cartoon who are pure cinema
What about Veggietales?
@@aqiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii yes that’s a good exemple of a right made Christian Cartoon too for what i see
the reason that the animation for Prince of Egypt is so good is because they had their best animators working on it because they thought it would be one of their best selling movies.
when the animators messed up on Prince of Egypt, they were sent to work on Shrek and called it "getting shreked"
DreamWorks and 2D animation are arguably better than their 3D stuff.
I mean, Shrek was funnier tho
@@martind5653 I think I remember someone calling the Prince of Egypt a masterpiece and Shrek a beautiful shitpost... and yea, both check out.
11:48 Oh my god, that's me! Hi guys lol
13:22 He was like “Say JK right now.”😐
17:00 the way me and my family made the same joke about how a comedic relief character like a snake or a camel in the movie 😭
LET MY PEOPLE RIZZ
12:13 In the Bible, He was about 40 years old when he left Egypt, and he came back to Egypt about another 40 years later. In the movie Moses doesn't seem to have aged much at all.
It’s crazy that before this movie, Dreamwork released Antz movie just to spite Bugs Life
