@@Someone-nv1cj imagine a 30 year old man writing a sexual fanfic about Olivia rodrigo… it’s weird. It would be *less* weird if it was a fictional character and not a real person that the author, a complete stranger, is sexualizing
@@Someone-nv1cj In a lot of states in the US, it's legal for children and very young teenagers to be married to their adult rapists with their parent's permission. Not only is it legal, but it happens. But it's fine because it's legal! /s
The boys are right, the lead actor of this film is NOT hot, he's the kind of guy that makes my bisexual ass wonder if I really like men because I do NOT see the appeal at all. 😭
The way I screamed when I saw we’re FINALLY talking about this toxic dumpster fire of a franchise. Each movie is worse than the last, but I’m too far gone to stop now 😂🔥😂
One of the many thoughts I had after coming home from seeing this movie was that they absolutely have to do an episode on it. It’s too much of a cultural reset not to
Y’all - her roommate wasn’t the one hooking up with Hardin. Her roommate’s name was Steph and she had the girlfriend. Molly was another girl in the friend group. Had me screaming as if you could hear me while I was listening 🤦🏻♀️
I can't believe Zach didn't mention the fun fact that "hard on" is actually British but he has a different British accent [I think northern] so he's faking a London accent while actually having a British accent.
Okay I’ve actually read this book and the “twist” in the book is so horrifying and messed up, I was thankful they changed it to the “it was a bet” trope for the movie. Was the movie bad? Yes. Will I watch all installments. Also yes.
@@JClucky13 I’ll try to explain this without breaking community guidelines 😅 So there was a bet, but it wasn’t to make Tesla fall in love with him. It was for him to take her…um…~innocence~. However, there were terms to the bet. His friends said that he had to have “proof.” So after they did the thing, he offered to “wash her sheets,” but he actually just put them in his trunk to SHOW TO HIS FRIENDS
My qualm is Zack asking why an upperclassmen would be obsessed with being friends with their freshman roommate... And from a similar experience, it's because you see this sad friendless and sheltered kid and need to show them adulthood! You become their mentor like Obi-Wan was to Anakin
can you imagine you walk into a movie theatre to watch a new release, and come to the horrifying realization that you and your former bandmates are being portrayed in this insane team drama? every day liam payne wakes up--
The issue with all of this is that it’s a book and like most movies made from books they miss sooooo much plot!! I swear the books aren’t as atrocious. Some of it is, but not all of it. The movie was pretty bad and the other ones are even worse. The sex scenes in the book are way better 😂 but Hardin is hella toxic the whole time though imo
The amount of brain cells that were lost watching this movie is higher than the amount of tax returns that the former President of the United States needs to pay 😂
I think it would be very cool for you guys to watch Joker (2019). There was lots of talk about what white men are able to get away with from that movie & I think there would be really interesting conversations between Zach & Miles as white men, Kelsey as a white woman, and then Garrick as a black man POV.
Never thought of that before... That is a very good point! I often this about terrible female main characters as well, ex: Carrie Mathison, Skyler White, etc.
This is the most random thing, but i swear to GOD the author of After made my friends and I pay for her meal at Urth Cafe! lmaoooo also kelsey is 1000% right, zayn should always be the main character lol
I'm late and I'm utterly dissatisfied at the lack of Bowie appreciation comments, and I just saw an episode where Hippo was in the studio as well - I vote for more doggos in the pod because it makes my friggen day to see them
Nah, I'm with Tessa on the dare thing. I've been the one having the joke played on me and all my friends knew and I was devastated, and it wasn't even a romantic thing (though it ended up going on for 5 years without me knowing). Now I have a fucking complex about people lying to me 😂
I'm sorry, two BILLION readers? You mean to tell me that over 25% of all humans on earth have checked this story out on Wattpad? That must have been misspoken, maybe 2 billion visits in total to the various series/chapters posted??
See, Kelsey saying she had to come in and defend the movie for the fans is the one thing about this podcast that I don't like. I want genuine opinions and reactions. If you think a movie is terrible, trash it. It devalues your opinions when you when you aren't honest. It's okay for a movie to get three "guilty" votes.
Thanks to the loose thread on that green arm chair - I am fully invested in the Try Pod! lol I watch every podcast just to see who gets to fiddle with the rogue string next!
No one with a British accent is an anarchist? The Sex Pistols have a song called Anarchy in the UK & Russell Brand is always going on about anarchy being the solution! Also, given they have the Monarchy I feel like they’re more inclined to wanna rise against!
I feel like since they’ve watched after the kidz bop version. They’ve seen the original 50 shades . Next they need to watch 365 the foreign version of 50 shades
Watching Kelsey yawn and trigger her tri-whatever it is made me sooo sad! That happens with my Migraines a lot. I'm happy it was close to the end so she didn't have to keep talking.
I can't with the various English accents 😂 Guys, please! And Hero Fiennes Tiffin is actually English, if you're wondering. And Josephine is Australian (if you didn't know)!
Upper classmates can be roomed with lower classmates. When I was a freshman I was roomed with a Junior. Definitely shouldn’t be a thing though it was traumatizing lol
This entire series is so bad. The books are somehow even worse. I started the movie thinking, "Is that guy attractive?" I ended it thinking, "No. He's definitely not."
So I live in Hungary, in Europe and this movie started out as an 'only-in-theaters' film. I saw the first movie back in 2019 and since then there are like 2 or 3 more out. I was so surprised to see that it made it to Netflix tbh :D
But also but of a bummer that theyll defenda movie they dont like, be honest, if all 3 hated it say it. I find the episodes where you all didnt like something the funniest.
i never considered how the dare aspect could be just a cute origin story in an otherwise healthy relationship, knowing how fucked up the dare is originally ruins it for me. in the book, the dare is for him to sleep with tessa and take the *blood stained sheets* as proof..........
Haven't watched the movie but after looking up the main actor, I think he looks like a Burberry runway model: his face is symmetrical and generally handsome, but ultimately not memorable
Idk what this is about but I need to express this. I've been a Twilight stan for 12 years, and I know that 50 shades was written as Twilight fanfic. So, I finally watched it yesterday and omg, worst movie ever. Like an awful Twilight parody. I couldn't watch it consistently but I was able to fast forward and squeeze the entire movie into 10 mins. Do not reccomend. Fuck that shit. Anyway, love the podcast :)
from juneteenth to 4th of july can yall do black guilty pleasures (he who shall not be named with the shitty wigs) and classics: love and basketball, akeelah and the bee, princess and the frog, atl, love dont cost a thing, drumline, soul food, etc
I didn’t even realize there was more than one movie because why would there be? Lol I just assumed I kept getting recommended a movie I’d seen already 😂
6:20 Kelsey's off mic yelling gives me strong "You're going to look at me and tell me that I'm wrong?!" vibes
Yes! But I can hear the line and can not place it😩 going to bug me all day!!
@@ms42662 It's from the wicked witch of the west argument
Whenever they mentioned Noah Centineo, I just think of Becky saying that ''Noah Centineo is hotter before he speaks".😂😂
Garrick said “Magical Black Friend” and I was DECEASED because finally, someone mentioned it 🔥
Milllesssss! I love you 😂 “he looks like a 7 eleven cashier” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
the fact that the author was around 30 and lying about her age at the time while writing fan fiction about a 19 year old harry styles is… strange
He is 19, anything legal is fine in my book
Stop shaming people for stuff like that , live and let live
@@Someone-nv1cj things can be “fine” whilst still being strange.
@@Someone-nv1cj it's still weird to write erotic fiction based on a stranger regardless if they're an adult 😬

He looks like a soft boy trying to act tough, it doesn't work.
The way I screamed when I saw we’re FINALLY talking about this toxic dumpster fire of a franchise. Each movie is worse than the last, but I’m too far gone to stop now 😂🔥😂
Haven't watched yet but I just really want yall to watch Everything, Everywhere, All At Once because yall would love it. It is a hands down pleasure.
Thank you for sharing this awesome movie I saw it in theaters and it was sooo good!!!!
One of the many thoughts I had after coming home from seeing this movie was that they absolutely have to do an episode on it. It’s too much of a cultural reset not to
Zach has recommended this one in his Insta stories!
@@meikusje I forget i have insta sometimes lol. but that's good to hear!
Yes PLEASE it would be so amazing to hear about it, y’all have done Batman and Mobius, follow it up with Everything, Everywhere, All at Once 💗
"I can tell you're not f*cking because you have a freaking Disney VHS collection...."
Why you gotta be calling me out like that Garrick! 🤣
Y’all - her roommate wasn’t the one hooking up with Hardin. Her roommate’s name was Steph and she had the girlfriend. Molly was another girl in the friend group. Had me screaming as if you could hear me while I was listening 🤦🏻♀️
Right?! They combined two separate people into the "toxic roommate ex" haha
Oh good! I haven’t seen the first one in a while and I kept thinking it was someone else. I questioned myself for a minute there
They should have had someone who was an After fan come in and navigate this for them. Lol.
I can't believe Zach didn't mention the fun fact that "hard on" is actually British but he has a different British accent [I think northern] so he's faking a London accent while actually having a British accent.
Okay I’ve actually read this book and the “twist” in the book is so horrifying and messed up, I was thankful they changed it to the “it was a bet” trope for the movie. Was the movie bad? Yes. Will I watch all installments. Also yes.

@@katielee1859 ok that is awful but I was expecting way worse so thank the gods 😭
I’m here for Garrick cutting through the BS and adding realness to the Discourse is awesome 🔥
I’m a bigger fan of Kelsey for wanting Zayn to be the Main Character 😂
I mean the third book takes an awful turn but if he had started as the main 👌🏻👌🏻
I like how Kelsey keeps calling her Tesla and not Tessa 😂
My qualm is Zack asking why an upperclassmen would be obsessed with being friends with their freshman roommate... And from a similar experience, it's because you see this sad friendless and sheltered kid and need to show them adulthood! You become their mentor like Obi-Wan was to Anakin
I've never seen this movie before - but love that 20 minutes into the podcast, I still have no clue what the plot is lol
56:31 E.L. James wrote ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ on her Blackberry and I wrote my thesis on my phone. It’s a thing 😂
I too wrote my senior thesis on my phone lol got a A- too 😎
The huge majority of teen romances are so bad, wrong and toxic I cant believe there hasnt been an uproar about it 😂
Btw please review Heartstopper
Was just coming here to recommend Heartstopper 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
Omfg yes heartstopper!!!!!
Omg yes, do heartstopper!!
Can we get picture pop ups of the photos Zach, Kelsey and Garrett show each other?
Rewatching this and the accents and the hp references are killing me
God, I read this as a teenager an
d I regret I read the books. I hate that the movies exist. I hope this podcast heals me
can you imagine you walk into a movie theatre to watch a new release, and come to the horrifying realization that you and your former bandmates are being portrayed in this insane team drama? every day liam payne wakes up--
Coming from a writer, if you write an entire book on your phone, there is zero editing and revising going on. That is why the story is hot garbage.
Kelsey we appreciate your service of defending these shitty films 😂
The issue with all of this is that it’s a book and like most movies made from books they miss sooooo much plot!! I swear the books aren’t as atrocious. Some of it is, but not all of it. The movie was pretty bad and the other ones are even worse. The sex scenes in the book are way better 😂 but Hardin is hella toxic the whole time though imo
Agreed. The movies are horrible especially the last one… books explain so much the movies could never lol 😆
PLEASE do Heartstopper! Combat the toxicity with the most wholesome joyful queer show 🥰🥰🥰
Yes!!!
bowie would like a mic please
Gotta make the case for the rest of the 50 shades ft. a Fulmer
I didn't realize what movie you were doing til you mentioned "Hardon" lmao. I love the After movies!!! I'm so ready!!!
you mentioned Cruel Intentions so now you have to do an episode about it, that's the rule
I blame dylan is in trouble for introducing me to this series
The amount of brain cells that were lost watching this movie is higher than the amount of tax returns that the former President of the United States needs to pay 😂
Garrick and Bowie 🥰
Spoiler: Each ‘After’ movie gets worse and worse but i really want their opinions on the horrible gold outfit in the second one
Please do Everything, Everywhere, All At Once!!!
Let me just say that Kelsey can do a Northern Accent really well. 😂
I think it would be very cool for you guys to watch Joker (2019). There was lots of talk about what white men are able to get away with from that movie & I think there would be really interesting conversations between Zach & Miles as white men, Kelsey as a white woman, and then Garrick as a black man POV.
Never thought of that before... That is a very good point! I often this about terrible female main characters as well, ex: Carrie Mathison, Skyler White, etc.
I will never watch a Netflix original movie because they all look ter-ri-ble…so I’ll just enjoy this episode 🤣
There’s quite a few good ones actually.
Suggestion: White Chicks or Zoolander
This is the most random thing, but i swear to GOD the author of After made my friends and I pay for her meal at Urth Cafe! lmaoooo also kelsey is 1000% right, zayn should always be the main character lol
Me having read After and watched this movie: what are they even talking about
Please watch He's Just Not That Into You!!!
I'm late and I'm utterly dissatisfied at the lack of Bowie appreciation comments, and I just saw an episode where Hippo was in the studio as well - I vote for more doggos in the pod because it makes my friggen day to see them
sorry kelsey, im with zach and garrick on this one, he's not hot
This movie happened to show up last night and I watched it, and I swear you guys are not doing the silliness justace 🤣🤣🤣
Nah, I'm with Tessa on the dare thing. I've been the one having the joke played on me and all my friends knew and I was devastated, and it wasn't even a romantic thing (though it ended up going on for 5 years without me knowing). Now I have a fucking complex about people lying to me 😂
I'm sorry, two BILLION readers? You mean to tell me that over 25% of all humans on earth have checked this story out on Wattpad? That must have been misspoken, maybe 2 billion visits in total to the various series/chapters posted??
The toxicity of LITERALLY all the characters is appalling yet not surprising for Fan Fiction lmao
It was filmed in Georgia, but supposed to take place in the Northwest. So y’all are right to be confused about that.
I just rewatched these movies, again. Guilty Pleasure!
The British accent killed me 😂👌🏼
So I totally have a Tequila Mockingbird shirt in my wardrobe!
okay but i love how saturated the colors in this vid are ??
Listen I need yall to watch all of them! They progressively get worse but so much better!
See, Kelsey saying she had to come in and defend the movie for the fans is the one thing about this podcast that I don't like. I want genuine opinions and reactions.

I disagree. You can dislike something, but still acknowledge its good/valid points.
Kelsey really has to stop screaming at the top of her lungs into the mic... Like scream whooooaaa is just crazy on the ears
Extensive VHS/Disney collection here.
Not a virgin, but I do identify as ace…so…checks out I guess? 😂 lol
I want a full episode of Zach doing a Beatles impression
I randomly saw the 2nd movie on Netflix…. I wish I could unsee it
Thanks to the loose thread on that green arm chair - I am fully invested in the Try Pod! lol I watch every podcast just to see who gets to fiddle with the rogue string next!
visual novel dating sims! i love those too and am so glad zach loves them too! dream daddy omg LOL
The "nobody with a British accent is an anarchist" threw me off...The Sex Pistols? Morrisey? Most of the punk movement in the 80s?
It wonderful how everyone tried so many different British accents and not one of them was close to an actual one haha
No one with a British accent is an anarchist? The Sex Pistols have a song called Anarchy in the UK & Russell Brand is always going on about anarchy being the solution! Also, given they have the Monarchy I feel like they’re more inclined to wanna rise against!
I feel like since they’ve watched after the kidz bop version. They’ve seen the original 50 shades . Next they need to watch 365 the foreign version of 50 shades
Zach was an Episodes, Chapters, Choices etc guy. That's a bit adorable and also speaks to his type of.. stimulation? lol
I adore that Zach owns liking Otome games.
Watching Kelsey yawn and trigger her tri-whatever it is made me sooo sad! That happens with my Migraines a lot. I'm happy it was close to the end so she didn't have to keep talking.
Miles watched “Dylan is in trouble” 😉 and added this movie to torture you guys.
Poor Dylan😂 the last one really crushed him, especially when he realised it wasn't that last one🤣
Dying for an episode on Firefly or serenity
I can't with the various English accents 😂 Guys, please!
And Hero Fiennes Tiffin is actually English, if you're wondering. And Josephine is Australian (if you didn't know)!

You guys kept calling it a Netflix movie, but it isn’t. 😂 It’s just ON Netflix.
2nd and waiting at thr dentist office and clicked on this video sooooo fast! Perfect timing 🙌
Cruel intentions for one week on Guilty Pleasures!!
This entire series is so bad. The books are somehow even worse. I started the movie thinking, "Is that guy attractive?" I ended it thinking, "No. He's definitely not."
The character of Hardon was way more abusive and terrible in the og fanfiction. It was so fucked up
OH my god Kelsey talking about Jesse McCartney TOOK ME BACK
Wait can this cast do a book review just of To Kill A Mockingbird then?
Also please cover the next After movie!!🥹😭
So I live in Hungary, in Europe and this movie started out as an 'only-in-theaters' film. I saw the first movie back in 2019 and since then there are like 2 or 3 more out. I was so surprised to see that it made it to Netflix tbh :D
The roommate and Hardons toxic ex are two separate people lol.
And yes he's a little hot, but I think it's the accent 🤣🤣🤣
Zach sounds like a member of the beetles 😂
But also but of a bummer that theyll defenda movie they dont like, be honest, if all 3 hated it say it. I find the episodes where you all didnt like something the funniest.
12:22 my college over enrolled students and there’s a housing crisis and one of my freshman friends was put with a junior and sophomore…
I need a cruel intentions episode!! It is my ultimate guilty pleasure movie
I love how deep were going into this one. The first movie was surprisingly good. Hahaha it not good good, but dang it I liked it 😅
Not gonna lie I loved the after series
i never considered how the dare aspect could be just a cute origin story in an otherwise healthy relationship, knowing how fucked up the dare is originally ruins it for me. in the book, the dare is for him to sleep with tessa and take the *blood stained sheets* as proof..........
ew ew ew ew ew
Lol yeah, color me surprised when Zach and Garrick scoffed about the "dramatic" twist. I guess guys just look at things differently? Haha.
would love to see an episode about an amazing short film made by a certain confidently insecure lady❤❤(and maybe have canter as a guest)
Lmao I'm so glad you guys call him Hard-on cause I was calling him Hardecoke instead and honestly missed opportunity on my part 🤣
Haven't watched the movie but after looking up the main actor, I think he looks like a Burberry runway model: his face is symmetrical and generally handsome, but ultimately not memorable
You realise you have to do the sequel next, right?! 😂 I do agree with Kelsey that Hard-On is kinda hot, but man, it is the least sexy sexy movie ever!
Idk what this is about but I need to express this. I've been a Twilight stan for 12 years, and I know that 50 shades was written as Twilight fanfic. So, I finally watched it yesterday and omg, worst movie ever. Like an awful Twilight parody. I couldn't watch it consistently but I was able to fast forward and squeeze the entire movie into 10 mins.

I’ve often referred to After as the ugly baby of Twilight and 50 Shades. I freakin’ love Twilight though. Lol
from juneteenth to 4th of july can yall do black guilty pleasures (he who shall not be named with the shitty wigs) and classics: love and basketball, akeelah and the bee, princess and the frog, atl, love dont cost a thing, drumline, soul food, etc
also a play vs movie episode would be chaotic neutral but also lawful evil
Yessssss can’t WAIT for this one boys
I didn’t even realize there was more than one movie because why would there be? Lol I just assumed I kept getting recommended a movie I’d seen already 😂
cant wait for june for all the gay guilty pleasure movies. but im a cheerleader will hopefully make the roster
I love these movies lol
The townie was dating a producer..lol that’s how he got that weird part wiry the car. To involve him more
