I remember the CGI being A LOT better when I was a kid 😭
We were easily impressed 😂
I think it's hard to judge too because the graphics were obviously trying to look as if they were in a game too which in 2000 when this probably started shooting most games had those types of graphics.
same as the Barbie movies huh 😭
It's because contextually they did look better by comparable to what the best available at the time was. Now there's a much, much, much larger gap between what is consider good, let alone great.
LMAO I SWEAR
this was actually the only ‘spy kids’ movie i saw as a kid and let me tell you it looked AMAZING back then
I thought it was trippy and amazing as a kid.
Now I see it differently.
Same
@@Aego384no dude its still a masterpiece
same actually-
One of the first movies I saw in 3D
"I'm the guy."
Greatest line in movie history.
"He's not the guy... I am"
*queue Elijah Wood*
The predecessor of the "I'm Him" one liner
You're not that guy pal, you're not that guy
When Juni was choosing which member of his family to bring in, Machete’s perk list said “Only a face his mother can love” 😂
Alex: Where did the money for the animation budget go
Also Alex: How did they afford all these A-list Actors
bro same like, the casting director did not need to go that hard
I almost spit water when he went all "Selma HYUKCH"
99% of all he $ was put into getting the cast, the last 1% was for the movie 🤣🤣
LITERALLY WHAT I THOUGHT. PAUSED THE VIDEO & RANTED TO MY PARTNER ABOUT IT 🤣🤣🤣
16:53 he says that
The Rodriguez children’s film genre is so unique bc his children were a part of his process… he wanted to make films that acknowledge and empower children, and if that’s the theme of the genre… I’d say he killed it. He made Spy Kids for his kids, and he made “We can be heroes” with his kids. He’s a good dude
Also massive representation for Latinos which is basically how he got the support of so many big actors
@@demo2823don’t read my name
@@demo2823 yesssss!!!! I truly admire him! He sounds like an amazing dad and super cool dude from all of the interviews he’s given. And we can’t put a price on representation! Plus he was doing it before it was cool.
@@demo2823ah yes. A Latino director casting Latino kids in a Latino family movie. 😂 please 🙏 seek help
@@awesome123306 get help for what? Like yeah it makes sense he'd cast Latinos ig but there aren't a ton of huge mainstream Latino directors in Hollywood. The representation felt nice. Like I remember actually feeling it was neat when I was a kid, cause my family is Latino
17:19 I REMEMBER THIS PLOT TWIST SCARING ME AT NIGHT. THE FACT THAT SHE WASNT REAL-
Me too mate but I have a crush now who kinda looks like her so I'm safe for now
"Your feelings for her are not real." "They are real to me!"
just like all my friends
@@Walter-vq3vmyour crush looks like a kid??
@@iggymcmuffin nah but facial features reminds me of her. Ok that's kinda messed up idk it reminds me of her. How should I put it, they look similar 😅 if she grew up I mean but definitely not like a kid
it is very obvious the toy maker is conflicted, the multiple personalities are part of the game he made to help himself cope, (they aren't in his head) and him helping his enemies again and again when he literally has full control of the game is proof that he wants to be defeated and wants forgiveness
Let’s be honest, this movie walked so Ready Player One could run
True. Plus Ant-Man 3 this past year ripped off both this movie and Sharkboy and Lavagirl.
@@carter_lovejoysharkboy and lava girl was made with the same director. so they didn’t really copy
@@kierasymone I meant that Ant-Man 3 ripped off both movies. I edited my comment above.
It's got a mixed reception, but I absolutely loved Ready Player One.
RPO was better ngl so yess
Mario bros straight up copying Spy Kids 3 is something I DID NOT expect to learn today!!😂😂😂
Nah facts lmao
Aye, Sword Art Online also ripped from here with the whole getting trapped in a game by the creator and saving the imprisoned damsel in distressed. 😅
@@blackrex828first getting trapped in a game is not at all a new or original concept. Lots of movies/books have used it and saving damsel in distress is literally such a common trope for video games
@@blackrex828SAO's creator most likely didn't even know of SK3's existence lmao
I enjoyed the Mario movie, but that fact has me speechless.
I can’t tell what’s funnier. The Elijah Wood cameo where he is hyped up only to die immediately, Sylvester Stallone having the time of his life with half a dozen zany characters, or the dark implication that Ricardo Montalban imprisoned the Toymaker in a computer back in the sixties.
Elijah Wood dying 3 minutes into this movie stuck with me for my whole life. I thought it was the funniest thing when I was a kid 🤣
He was literally him, had 99 lives, and got OHKO'd. Based.
I love that Alex is electing to ignore that Spy Kids has another movie in its franchise after this 😂😂
Nah he said he wanted to cover the third of the original trilogy I'm sure he knows there is another movie but doesn't want to cover it rn
If you don’t speak about it then it never happened.
THERE IS?!
@@TasjaDHthere is not. We do not speak about such cursed historical artifacts.
I actually like the time one, it has some good scenes and the plot is good, once you don't overthink it.
To me, the Elijah woods cameo was a perfect casting because in Lord of the rings he's a hero. So him showing up you're expecting him to save the day but no. He shows up for no reason so it was pointless from the start 😂
Yeah that’s one of my favourite moments 😂
It’s hilarious
CAKE 🍰
When I first saw this movie I had no clue who he was either 😂 i know now though
Don’t read my name
"Why is he even here, he shows up, opens a door, and then dies"
For peak comedy. Imagine the main character of the anime showing up, dramatic entrance, everyone is hyping him up. And then he gets killed in a single hit. It's fucking hilarious.
Fun fact: Ricardo Montalban (Grandpa) in real life is in a wheelchair, so they had to build special rigs to have his chair move against the green screen as if he was walking.
I don't care how old I get and how much worse the cgi looks, this series wasd such special part of my childhood and the movie just slays my world. The ending will forever be iconic
The cgi got better in the 4th one also they got spykids 5 tomarrow also Machete has his own franchise "Grindhouse" "Planet Terror" (released same day) "Machete" and "Machete kills"(in released order)
Same
It’s terrible and amazing at the same time
As a 26 year old adult this was my avengers end game
@@kaylamcmiller384824, and just rewatched. 😂🎉
Hope you enjoyed, fam.
I have a story. Saw Spy Kids 1 in theatres with my family when I was 7. By pure coincidence, my mom was wearing the same dress that day as their mom wears in the movie. For the rest of the night, my mom was insisting she's a spy, "typing" on her makeup pallette, etc. and I didn't know whether to believe her or not lol.
😂😂 that's such a cool mom you have!! It would have been hilarious if she was like "Ya know, ginger_nspice sweetie, this movie is actually based off my time with the OSS before transferring to the CIA. I also killed so many people...but our secret, kay?" 😅
That’s so cuteeee
@@THambrough That would have completely blown my mind as a kid, and probably given me trust issues lolol 😅
That's such a cute story😂😂❤ thanks for sharing
Your mom sounds awesome omg!! 😂
Oh man, I always loved how deliberately campy and full of cheese these movies were. :) I could enjoy them, because it was very obvious that they were not taking themselves seriously at all. The big names in Hollywood probably agreed to be in it for some pure, low stakes fun. Like a vacation. :)
This movie was fun. It was one of those that you could enjoy, throwing yourself into a cool yet cheesy videogame world without coming away from it with an existential crisis. Seeing kids movies like that now is rare. That's what makes the Spy Kids movies a gem. A weird, fever dream gem.
it may also be worth noting that the guy who plays the grandfather was also Khan Noonien-Singh in the original Star Trek series as well as The Wrath of Khan
Elijah Wood turning up for all of two minutes, and then getting quickly booted out, has stayed with me for the last twenty years. It's such a bizarre scene, yet insanely memorable!
Mordor really changed Frodo 💀
He probably had a 30 minute lunch break when filming Lord of the Rings and went to the studio next door to film his two minute cameo for Spy Kids 3D.
Plus, Elijah Wood previously worked with director Robert Rodriguez on the movie The Faculty. I guess Rodriguez had contacts with people he previously worked with like him, Steve Buscemi (who was in Desperado), Salma Hayek (who was also in Desperado) and George Clooney (who was in From Dusk Till Dawn) and just said “Hey! Wanna be in this silly, bizarre kids movie for a quick paycheck?”
Reminds me of Brad Pitt's cameo as Vanisher in the first Deadpool movie. He's on screen for like all of five frames.
And there’s the fact that they foreshadow the whole ‘saying oops takes you back to 0’ thing 😂
He was the guy
Fun Fact: This wasn't originally going to be a Spy Kids film. Robert Rodriguez initially didn't want to do a 3rd movie. He instead had come up with an idea for a science fiction movie about a group of kids going inside a video game, getting stuck in the video game, and it being in 3-D. However, he realized that setting up the characters and the world of that film was gonna be a nightmare. So he decided to instead make it the 3rd Spy Kids film as he figured that concept would've fit perfectly in the Spy Kids world
The funny thing is, Sword Art Online is that same scenario of being trapped in a VR game. The difference is the system is programmed to kill any players who are killed in the game. In other words, die in the game, die in real life.
@@jackskellingtonsfollower3389This movie is older than SAO tho lol
@@NotJustAnotherAverageJoe It is older than the SAO anime which first aired in 2012. The original SAO novel however, released in 2002. Spy Kids 3 premiered in 2003.
@@jackskellingtonsfollower3389 Nobody knew anything about that novel in the US. Plus the original novel isn't even the same as the SAO of today.
@@NotJustAnotherAverageJoe Yes but it's the same basic premise. So SAO is still about one year older than Spy Kids 3-D.
Honestly the crazy campiness of the movie is what makes it great. As long as you don’t think about ANY of the details
I love how he keeps wondering about where the budget went, but then is also confused about how they have some of the craziest actors from Hollywood at the time by clearly, the budget went straight to the actors to promote the film, and almost none of it went into the CG, and somehow it still was popular so
From what I remember, most of these stars came out of love for the director's rich history of representation of the Hispanic family bonds, mostly Banderas, Danny Trejo and Carla Gugino. Rodriguez's From Dusk Till Dawn also made Clooney and Hayek big stars so they said that they kind of owed it back. Rodriguez also had built a studio in his own home, allowing good box office returns. Actors like Stallone did it because his own children love the first. P.S. the girl at the waterpark in the beginning is the first role of Selena Gomez.
I left a similar comment but thank you for going into more detail!! I didn't know all of that, neat. Also im kinda shocked he didn't mention Selena Gomez?? He must have just not recognized her bc there's NO WAY he would have missed that opportunity to make some kinda comment or joke 😂
*First movie role. She was on Barney before (and during) that! :)
Carla Gugino is Irish lol.
@@alim.9801I was also surprised
I unironically love the Spy Kids movies and Sharkboy and Lavagirl, not because they're some high art thinkpieces or masterpieces of cinema.
They feel like a group of friends got together and said hey let's make some kids movies, and it's hard to hate that.
I distinctly remember being absolutely blown away by Sharkboy and Lavagirl as a kid. I didn't care about bad cgi at the time, why would I? What did matter to kid-me was that it was the first movie I'd ever scene that felt like someone had taken one of the stories I'd made up in my daydreams/games and turned it into an entire freaking movie!
Spy Kids was awesome too, Spy Kids 2 was the best though, hands down.
yeah its especially endearing now when most of the kids movies have some BS political messeges
Was I the only kid that cringed at shark boy and lavagirl? Lol that sharkboy dream song gave me serious second hand embarrassment XD now I just meme it all the time
@@GrimViridianI enjoyed Sharkboy and Lavagirl as a kid overall, but even back then I had to leave the room during the song lol, but I could tolerate any cringiness of the rest of it.
@@TheBonedWanderer lol at least it made for some great memes, my wife finally convinced me earlier this year to watch the twilight series (to make fun of it mind you) we were making sharkboy jokes the whole time XD
Missed my favorite quote from the movie
"We can not give you assistance after this point"
"What Assistance?"
The Spy Kids trilogy was part of my sick day regimen. I have such fond memories of these movies.
one of my favorite parts of this movie: when the beta testers are shown in real life and they're like "I'm not smart" "I'm not strong" and "I'm not cool." it always threw me off as a kid because I was like "why is everyone else just themselves but these three got completely different personalities??" lol
I always assumed it was that they used their virtual selves to be the people they wished they were, rather than what they were actually like. It's wish fulfillment
"I'm not smart"
*Literally was super smart several times in the video game world, but I guess we can't explain that one*
20 years?? Holy shit!! Boy, did they push the 3-D, didn't they? The spy kids' movies were fun, though. I will say that the ending of the movie was great. Everyone, including the villains, came to get together to defeat the robot. It was so ridiculous! But good at the same time.
19:28 Well I’m their Uncle?!😂
19:36 is that monk the actor in the blue
There was this one scene in the movie where you meet the beta testers in the real world where they are revealed to be different than they were in the game. Like the cool kid was a nerd. I always thought that was a pretty cool touch for a kid’s film.
Yeah I'm surprised he didn't touch on that, thats totally the kinda scene he would joke about a ton. Same with him not mentioning Selena Gomez in the beginning!! I fr think he just didn't know it was her, bc there's no way he wouldn't give that at least a lil shoutout
@@alim.9801 Wait, that was Selena Gomez? I had no idea! 🤣
@@blackwings724 The girl at the water park that did not know about winter shutdown?! Well she wasn't a well known actress then.
I mean that explains the Email address. A cool kid would give phone numbers 😂😂😂😂
Alex pointing out why this movie has a bunch of A-list actors really makes me wonder if there's some shady shit going on behind the scenes
Robert Rodríguez is just a cowboy.
Can do whatever he wants, bring whoever he wants.
Big L if you ask me.
Or they probably just did it for the lols
@@crimson_rory probably. they seem to be having fun
Rodriguez apparently is just a pleasant guy who calls his friends to do cameos on his films
It could just be calling in a favour or Rodriguez saying he may consider them for an adult project. It could be one of their friend's kids is in the film and so is just doing it for them,.
Laughed too hard at all of this.
"Well I'm their uncle!" **takes off**
As far as the cgi I think it just made sense to us that the game world would look like that as kids. In other words its not that we thought the graphics looked "better" back then, its that our imaginations are just not as malleable as they used to be 😭
My fav quote from this movie is “He’s not the guy.”
“I’m the guy.”
quote it at random all the time, especially when entering a room
Just wait till Alex realizes there already is a spy kids reboot: Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World with JESSICA ALBA and it CAME OUT IN 4D! Weirdest thing to see in theaters lol
I was just thinking the same lol
Goodness, it had a really good ending.
@@artoriapendragonidilfitri7414 Yeah, it might just be my nostalgia talking but I liked it!
@@ameliachico3723 I see, still out of all 4 , I can't stress enough I love the ending.
It may not have been as great as the original trilogy, but the line "it smells like lintels and desperation" is something I do quote on occasion
this movie blew my mind as a kid.
now, as an adult, it still blows my mind, for the exact opposite reasons
Grandpa's delivery on "Juni, this way, this is the way out!" is so Tommy Wiseau. It's like he heard that line and was like "this is how I want every line in my movie to sound!"
17:13 ok but this moment went HARD as a kid, so wild. I was onsessed with demetria too, thought she was so cool and then they hit us with the tragic pixel perfect hologram twist, mannnn that was MOVIE MAGIC
"she's the reason this level's unwinnable. She's the deceiver"
Man, Carmen trying to snap her lil bro outta simp mode while I was still fully in it like "idc, demetria can do no wrong in my eyes"
you and me both@@adinakruijssen3056
I optimistically thought Juni would somehow be able to help her become real and they would start an actual relationship in real life when they escaped from the game.
The I grew up XD
You should really watch some of the behind the scenes, because it turns out that hardly any of the actors were there at the same time. There was so many scheduling conflicts, that Antonio filmed everything by himself and others were paired off for the same reason. And the reason Grandpa looks janky, was because the actor is in a wheelchair irl, so they made a rig to fit the chair and lift him up and down so the actors could pretend he was standing and have an eye line. Wild stuff
Having a real disabled actor is pretty cool though.
@@JJ-tn4mp I know it isnt what you meant, but that comment was so funny to me. Like "WOW! A real life disabled person". Stupid as fuck but hilarious to sleep deprived me at 5am
I love this movie because it feels like it was written by kids, it’s completely incoherent and it’s great
20:33 dom would be proud
Saw this in theaters and I thought it was really cool that it prompts you to put on the 3D glasses when Junie goes into the game, take them off when he gets out, and then out them back on when the game invades the real world.
this was unironically my favorite movie as a child i'm so glad Alex Meyers has witnessed it's glory
My favorite part of this movie is during the race and the cool guy turns backwards and says “We’ll try to help you out as much as we can” as if he’s talking to Juni but Juni is so clearly in front of him. I actually can’t fathom what the intention was.
_“JUNI IS VIDEO GAME JESUS???”_ sENT ME INTO ORBIT
I actually have a soft spot for this movie. Granted, it’s crazy, pointless, and totally unnecessary even as these movies go, but I can’t act like I wasn’t entertained. Maybe it’s because of the fact that I already didn’t take the Spy Kids movies that seriously. And seeing how they went all the way with this movie, I wasn’t that disappointed with the movie as everyone else was.
I remember watching this as a kid and being so traumatized by Dimitra's "death" that I couldn't finish the movie
_Pssst...nobody tell them about Land Before Time..._
@@christopherb501 YOU STOP IT RN
20:38 WHERE IS DOM TORRETO
the OG spykids triolgy is the GOAT. on a budget, yes. still letting a kid imagine and dream, also yes. better then most the junk being shat out now days. also, remember this movie was made for 3d and let me tell you, as a kid who saw in the theaters at the time. it was and is the best 3d effects to EVER come out in a movie. the action literally came off the screen and floated in space. it was AMAZING and trumped every later 3d movie in the effects alone, sadly though, this only translated to the big screen with the high end equipment of the time.
The only frustrating part is them NEVER explaining HOW the toy maker got grandpa in his wheelchair 😅 was it a brutal fight or something else? I have QUESTIONS !😣
Spy Kids 5?
My headcanon is that they were in an accident and he left him there without medical attention (maybe to save himself?)
Even as a kid I wanted to know what on earth happened but it’s so surface level it’s so frustrating this is never elaborated on and to be fair that would have probably made the ending less abrupt 😅
@@smnbrgssnot likely to address it because the guy who played the grandpa died a few years ago (probably after this 3rd movie)
I think they alluded to them being spy partners back in the day and some kind of betrayal by the Toymaker led to grandpa accidentally being hurt by it in a sort of domino effect/collateral damage thing, and the Toymaker always regretted it
I'm sorry I played that movie so many damn times back in the day, English, Spanish, captions on....most scratched disc in the house 😂😂
Oh also I believe the betrayal was motivated by the Toymaker being angry with the OSS, hence his line at the end of the movie saying he wanted to right the wrongs and get revenge for them "using" him on top of imprisoning him (likely for the event that cost grandpa his legs)
Spy kids is that nostalgia 'cool kids' vibe where I don't care how awful some of the composition is or how awful it looks in retrospective. It just puts a smile on my face for clearly being a kid/family movie😂
Also, Alex commenting adds to the fun 😁
19:12 The original Endgame.
I saw this in the theaters at age 8 and it changed my life.
They might look bad now being older, but the spy kids trilogy, and "Sharkboy and Lavagirl" will always have a special place in my heart bc they are my childhood.
Spy Kids 2 was even pretty weird to me as a kid, not that the effects looked bad but it was just a weird movie. Also, the trilogy was my childhood too and no matter how famous several of the actors are I can't help but think of them as being from Spy Kids lol.
I have been binge watching this guys videos for the past week and I'm like "wow, My childhood shows/movies are weird."
Thats the fun of it
Alex's mission accomplished
There's too many dead actors in that family montage. I kinda teared up a little bit. And thank you for not ruining it with an obvious Vin Diesel clip.
Just did the Spy Kids 3 drinking game. Shit flew by, and the nostalgia hit good. Fun flick, 100% watch it with friends!
18:02. Okay. That awkward like delivery is literally the funniest thing in this movie
It's been years since I watched Spy Kids 3. I forgot how star-packed cast the Spy Kids films especially with Sylvester Stallone and Salma Hayek and even Elijah Wood. How did Robert Rodriguez get these actors?!?!? Also, this movie is only 80 minutes 😅 it felt like 90 minutes as a kid.
I think Robert Rodriguez has a lot of respect in the industry. One big reason that apparently he’s a really nice guy, and is really passionate about movie making. Apparently he was offered a bigger budget for spy kids 2 but actually chose to go with a smaller budget as he felt he was more creative with less money because it meant he was limited with ways in which he could make the process easier. It helps him think outside the box. It’s a big reason that the first Saw movie did so well, as James wan (and Leigh whanell) had such a small budget that they had to come up with creative ideas to make the movie work.
5:59 Sky Kids 3 just might be the most random ass movie Sly Stallone’s every been in
This movie is a masterpiece and nobody will convince me otherwise
There is actually a Spy Kids 4, which centers around new characters but brings back the old cast as adults. I’m just assuming at this point that I don’t remember much from that film, but it may be worth adding to your little list.
yeah it is a bit better than the third but still bad. still have the blu ray for it
That's what I was thinking it's from 2011
dude, I love the Spy Kids trilogy but I just cannot understand anything in Spy Kids 4, the shennanigins confused me constantly
Did it? I don’t member 4 even mentioning the previous cast.
5 was better. But wish they had Juni or something as a cameo…
I remember it has Rowan Blanchard from girl meets world and technically okay representation bc one of the kids wears hearing aids
The fact that not only Robert Rodriguez's Machete movies are set in the same universe as Spy Kids, but Danny Trejo plays the SAME character in both franchises is so weird to me.
the thing about the spy kids movies that baffles me most is how famous actors like george clooney and elijah wood keep ending up in them.
This was the first Spy Kids movie I saw as a kid, so the references to the other movies and returning characters etc flew over my head, but I thought it was the COOLEST thing ever. This movie, along with Kim Possible, M.I.High and G-Force of all things, created a spy/secret agent obsessed monster. I would have this movie on loop while acting out my own stories dressed up in all my designated spy clothes. I still have the movie, but haven't watched it in years, so this was a very welcomed and fun reminder/throwback of those years.
I also had the biggest crush on Carmen, though I was too young to fully understand what that meant/I had yet to realize I was queer, and so she was one of many female characters I thought was "really, really cool."
Help I never realized how bad the flying was at 19:20😭. I'm so happy that whatever budget they had, they didn't use it to make that better.
I have to say Alex' hysterical laughter gets me every time
'It must be done' followed by grandpa rocketting off in his wheelchair has the same energy as 'I have to go now my planet needs me' and just lifting the animation cell off camera
I laughed WAY too hard at this.
I do not remember that final scene being so... Much 😅
All of his kids' movies are passion projects because they are based on storylines Robert Rodriguez came up with his kids when they were young. They work because they capture themes like the magic of childhood and the unstoppable power of redemption. Like, have you noticed in all of his kids films that few, if any of his villains actually stay villains?
That's true.
Floop was conflicted and went too far for his TV show, but realised he was wrong to kidnap agents purely for entertaining people on TV, so he worked with Carmen and Juni to undo the damage he had helped cause. He reprogrammed all the robots and sent them out to consistently work for good.
The Toymaker realized he would rather let Grandpa Cortez come to meet him and face punishment despite his mental instability and emotional conflicts, and helped the players reach him in the end.
Demetra was able to break free from her programming and help Juni and his team...well because she liked him I guess, I dunno
Minus realized Max was right about destroying others' dreams being a poor choice to deal with his own crushed hopes, and helped undo the damage he'd caused by marking over the dream journal / control panel thingy.
Dude i've been binging your videos hardcore! 😂
This was me and my sister's favorite trilogy when we were 9 lmao.
Great video!
😊
THIS WAS THE LAST PLACE I THOUGHT I'D SEE YOU MY BROTHER WATCHES YOU LOL
@@wigglejigglejoo Brick_Science is your brother?
@@XcaliburW no, my brother just watches his videos lol
@@wigglejigglejoo oh ok.
This was my childhood movie. Thanks for the reminiscence and laughs mate!
My sister and I were obsessed with these movies when we were younger. We watched all four of them quite a bit but we definitely watched the first three the most.
I remember realizing how major the actors in these movies are and being so shocked they were in these kid movies, but then I got into the Rodriguez movies made before 2001 and realized he's just using actors from his past films. Selma makes sense when you see From Dusk Til Dawn. Steve makes sense when you watch Desperado. Elijah makes sense when you get into The Faculty, especially when you find out his cast mates encouraged him to audition for Frodo.
14:20 Come on Alex! That introduction is incredible! Since that moment I had a crush on Carmen
I love all the "OH"s of Alex in this video..more than usual
the fact that you forgot to cut in vin diesel saying family with all the people in the end was a severe disappointment
11:11
Both movies also end with a fight against the villain in the real world
Spy kids 3 is a movie I love yet hate at the same time
Exactly it's amazing but bad at the sametime
It’s like The Room of kids movies imo.
This is one of my fav movies growing up
Why does Alex’s hysterical laughter completely synchronize with mine, a teenage girls’s?
Fun fact i remember on the special features they "showed off" all of the green screen effects right down to the family lining up before gramps goes to face the Toymaker. That line up shot was 3 separate takes. At no point in the movie is anyone on screen in the same room at the same time. Most of the movie is single actors in a room, talking to no one, all stitched together in post. And let me tell you as a child it was freaking awesome.
Cut to 2012
Ian McKellen crying tears of frustration as he works in a room covered entirely in green paper devoid of human interaction
I swear the spy kid’s franchise was avengers before the avengers
This was pretty much the Avengers: Endgame of 2003
Pretty much 😂
Seeing this is 3D theaters as an eight-year-old was such a ride, it felt equivalent to a trip to Disneyland 😅 I was so excited and looking back it’s hilarious
Best part of this is realizing that when I watched this movie in theaters I had _no idea_ about practically any of these actors or why it would be a big deal for them to be in a movie. When I was a kid this was just a fun silly movie they made for kids to have fun with wacky 3D movie technology. Now I personally appreciate a lot of those actors, and, uh... they really acted to the movie, huh? Like, wow, they knew exactly what movie they were in. And I enjoyed it as a kid but it is _hilarious_ now.
Alex, the guy showing up, opening the door, and dying HAD to happen. It was hilarious
"Nine years old is the peak of your life."
truer words have never been spoken 👏
This is literally one of my favorite one of your Videoes yet, I loved it😂😂😂
I understand the bad cgi in the real world but I think it was intended to look like that in the videogame. It needed to look fake and cartoon style sometimes so we understand its a virtual world for kids and in that time all of them were very colorful and with low graphics.
16:41 "cake."
**FREAKING DIES**
He died because the cake was a lie
16:30 frodo, what did they do to you?
Nah Antonio banderas smacking his experiments and flying to his kids will always be goated 😂😂
Kids movies are expensive to produce, they normally take twice the time to shoot because Kids can only legally work an 8 hour day including Lunch and schooling during that time as well. Your typical camera day is 12-14 hours but with kids it becomes much smaller meaning more of the budget has to go to crew costs as the production time is stretched out, adding more days to the shooting schedule
I remember seeing this in theaters as a kid. It was fun, aside from the 3d effect giving me a headache.
Only as an adult do I realise how star studded this cast was and honestly, what the Hell?!
Them talking the water park situation so seriously is the reason I love these movies
11:00 I genuinely believe this was a coincidence
