Cruella in the show once upon a time is literally evil because she enjoys it, she had a good life and good childhood. She just LOVES murder and hurting others it was so refreshing to finally see a villain who is a villain because they want to be
Fun fact: One of the writters who wrote the story for this movie is Aline Brosh McKenna a.k.a. the one who wrote the screenplay for The Devil Wears Prada. So no suprise these two movies are similar.
@where's the lamb s a U C E I do know that The Devil Wears Prada was a book first i have read it and McKenna didn't just condense the story she changed a lot of things. i was just saying that since she wrote the screenplay for the devil wears prada she would of incorporated a lot of aspects from that movie into another one (Cruella) were fashion plays a big role. And a lot of people compared Cruella to The Devil Wears Prada, this was just a fun fact to explain why the comparison was so on the nose. Sorry if my comment was kind of inarticulate and mybe ignorant to the author of the original story.
I love the way Cameron Boyce is remembered in this film. It was released on his birthday and the dog is the same breed as his dog in the descendants films that he played as Cruella’s son.
It made me think of Taylor Lyrics in I did something bad : « this is how the world works, you gotta leave before you get left » it really had the same energy
“I just want a villain who’s unapologetically bad.” *The Baronness gives up her child, reunites with her child. Then “kills” her unknowingly being watched until turning around and saying “She jumped”* If that’s not unapologetically evil WITH backstory then I don’t know what you need lol
@ That kind of protagonist would never sell tho. Like, the majority of people HATE the Baroness and she’s the poster child for unapologetically bad with no backstory.

@@crystalwang1532 I don't think you understand what sells and what doesn't.
@@crystalwang1532 honestly that’s true. The point of having a villain origin story is to understand how the villain became the way they are but if the villain has always been that way there’s no point of having an origin story. There’s no longer a compelling story if the villain has always been evil and is evil for evil sake
spoiler: it surprised me that you can actually hear the whistle in the beginning when the dogs attacked- i didn't even hear it the first time I watched it
@Dione Fernandes I think they meant that sometimes environment does have a play in how a person turns out. But sometimes a person raised in a loving, caring, and amazing home can still be an absolute horrible person for no reason.
@@rftg1793 most people also didn't fear him that much. He's not repulsive or terrifying or something unnatural that has you questioning human nature. He's just another boring generic darklord who can't even kill a dumb baby.
I don't care what anyone says but this movie was REALLY good idk maybe my expectations were really low so when i saw the whole movie i really love it but like the costumes and emma's acting were SO AMAZING!
exactly, when i saw the trailer i thought it was gonna be so bad beacuse i believed that they spoiled the enitre plot in that video, but i am glad that i was soooo wrong; and Emma, the visuals, the costumes are amazing!
also can we talk about how calm she is after literally seein her mother get killed, like I would've just rolled around in the same spot and cry like a baby or do sumn to check if my mother is actually dead, but she just dipped
She was a kid, it’s a movie, women especially either freeze or run during shock (yes women do also fight//it’s not a gender thing), and she was already being chased throughout the party & believed for the whole thing to be her fault. Her running made sense given context
we already have Ursula's back story. In the musical she's King triton's sister and she killed all her sisters but then Triton was born and she lost everything.
babe as a fashion girlie, sadly a lot of huge designer brands copy of a young designer's work and take credit for it. btw I feel offended when you said the about the clothes through the window look ugly when she made it actually better😭😂😭😂
This movie was sooo good! I loved it! the costumes, the makeup and the SCHEMING!!! I loveddd when she leaned into her Cruella side and was just sooo petty lmaooo. I genuinely think Cruella would've taken our world by storm like imagineee her at the MET Gala or Fashion Week???? She would be everythingggg especially when you don't even know who she is or where she's gonna come from. Omfg when she died and CAME BACK TO LIFE?? nahhhh Cruella would be the most followed person on social media
that would’ve made the movie better. they can’t keep doing these disney live actions that are teetering on edgy without actually being edgy. hsmtmts for example
I don’t care what anyone says I LOVED THIS MOVIE i was hooked and entertained through it all. The costumes, the music, the sets, the wholeee way it was shot and EMMA WAS AMAZING!!! I can’t wait for the sequel✨✨✨✨✨✨
@@Raya-ir4tm The Clash? The Doors? Ike and Tina Turner? Blondie? How about Queen? All these artists who iconic in their own right are considered subpar to you?
I agree abt how backstories explaining the evil can be annoying, but this is Disney after all. They gotta do it for the kids, can’t get too psychological.
I also thought this, but then again, maybe it is a psychoanalytical analysis on humanity, showing that no one is truly born evil, but becomes it due to their surroundings.
In the movie or show i forgot wasnt it her ex husband that made her go crazy? Like shes gonna be more evil this was just a glance of the psycho she could become in the next movie shell probably go down the path
Here's my crazy theory: This movie and Maleficent aren't that different, in my opinion they both represent what truly happened in this fictional world (or at least what I hope it did). People created these myths based on their perception of cruella and what happened, so basically she never was a dog killer. The 101 Dalmatians events are just folklore, because the media saw her using fake animals prints and thought she really killed baroness pets. But she didn't, she only did that to scare her. In the end of the movie she stays a good person, who is only unapologetically herself. Without being a puppy killer.
She is a puppy killer she’s just a narcissistic and gave into desire. She’s perfectly fine she just did it cause she wants what she wants and liked the fur. Like that’s her character she doesn’t care about the dogs she’s like a bad person. This movie is literally not about her.
Honestly REALLY good theory. I love the idea of all the past movies simply being the myths of these people. Essentially the "stories" and the new movies are the truth. That's my new head Canon. Copyright that before Disney steals your idea
I really enjoyed this movie but what it REALLY made me excited for is a potential 101 Dalmatians movie with this cast (potential sequel idea??). Or actually the sequel could delve more into Cruella developing a hatred for dogs and Anita and Roger meeting. Also Horace is adorable
I heard the plot through a friend and when they told me about the adoptive mothers death my brain ruined the whole thing...."so her back story is literally 'Dalmatians killed my mother'?"
actually no, she doesn't hate the dogs yet, notice how around the end she literally adopts them. this is something i hate because people always never explain this part when telling the story, she doesn't hate the dogs even when she tried to get the necklace back she still had a soft spot for them. it's like people saw the death scene and didn't watch the rest of the movie, if she truly hated the dogs then why does she take them? and why would they listen to her if there wasn't some sort of mutual trust? i feel like they'll explain everything else in the sequel and even in other renditions of cruella she doesn't actually hate the dogs she's obsessed with their fur.
I'm not sure but I've seen people saying that this movie was made to be a different interpretation of Cruella, and not necessarily a prequel to the 101 Dalmations' character. But again, I'm not sure
i think this works as a prequel an not necessarily an “origin story”. the movie doesn’t justify the things that cruella does in 101, it just shows how she met anita and roger, why she’s obsessed with fashion, how she came to know horace and jasper. she’s become a bit mad at the end of the film but she’s still a bit good. it’s sometime between cruella and 101 that she becomes evil, bc she’s yet to kill any animals for fashion.
i actually loved this movie, the fashion was incredible and the story was unexpected enough to be interesting. and I loved the tie-in at the end with pongo and pandita or whatever the dogs names were lol
"why can't villains just be bad?" the once upon a time version of cruella has a whole episode that makes it look like she'll have a tragic backstory, and then at the end of the episode she's like "no I actually am just a bad person" so... sometimes they can be
Agreed. I kinda miss that about current villains these days. Now these days we have to make sure that they’re sympathetic, to the point where they basically get a free pass from the things they’ve done. And in doing that, I feel like they lose what makes them scary and terrifying.
@@Kayoss13212 cruella is still extremely scary and terrifying, it's you lot missing the point. someone being "unapologetically evil" would equal no backstory (also no selling point), how would cruella be cruella if she had no motive? motives are what make good villains, not just being naturally evil. if you view her in such a light that the things she does is no longer cruel, then you're the one that took this movie wrong. this shouldn't change how you feel about the villain, it should make them more human. it's only redemption if you want it to be
No one can be pure evil when they are born. There has to be a reason. There is no people purely bad because they can (unless it involves power but thats not true for most Disney characters)
@@shelbyjadan People don't just enjoy doing bad things unless they are sick as in like really twisted (which I don't think Disney would include) or they have a motive
@@mayabeatty1214 yeah thats why there movies are mediocre and repetitive it's like one of those Christian movies her acting was the same as bre larson or something xD
Ash saying she just wants a villain , reminds me of the joker in - the dark Knight- !! , the best villain ever , no back story ,no reasoning … “ some people just want to see the world burn “ !
@@Hmletmetry i get it tho , but we never know , he made that story up , cause when he threatened the girl he made a completely different story about how he got the scars , in that story it was his wife … so it’s tricky ; I thought what you said at first but when I watched again I was like wait a minute … 🤔 . So it’s really unknown how he got the scars and what started him to be bad in THAT movie .
I thought this was an interesting and entertaining movie. I liked some of the choices they made like using the dalmations as a gauge of how much Estella was becoming like her mother, the grunge aesthetic, and how they touched on the theme of nature vs nurture. In psychology you learn that it is not that people are born evil, but your traits combined with your life experiences lead you to the person you become. A known mass murderer (the Ice Box Man) had a trait of not being afraid or not being frozen by fear in dangerous situations. If he hadn't had a childhood of abuse he might have used his 'courage' in the face of danger to save others such as being a police officer, a soldier, or a firefighter. A different upbringing might have lead him to become a completely different person. Going back to Disney's approach to nature vs nurture, we see the same thing with Cruella. She is witty and has a strategic type of mind; the story offers us an alternate version of events, that Cruella is not evil for the sake of being evil. She was born with the potential of accomplishing anything, but it is her interactions with people who dismiss her or treat her poorly that leads her to the 'villain' we know from the original "101 Dalmations". Notice how every time she lashes out against someone it is only after she is wronged by that same person.
13:30-13:32 I am deceased. Ashley you have done it again; surpassing expectations in flying colors. I couldn't stop laughing to that little clip. It now lives rent free in my mind. Thank you and enjoy your day.
@@lavenderbambi3501 I know but Disney putting that seen in the movie we’re she might die in the house fire only for them to promote the second cruella movie before most people could see it.
I feel like this is the wrong audience to say this... but I'm tired of Disney doing LA female origin stories in which the viallain is just misunderstood. Why can't she just be pure evil because she wants to, evil women do exist. I don't want a misunderstood Ursula. I want an Ursula who is not competent at ruling, nasty and evil who thinks her brother is weak and not fit for the throne and tries to steal it from him. But we all know Disney will do the reverse in which Ursula is the smart, tactical and uber amazing woman to her incompetent sexist brother.
absolutely agree with this. I would love to see a female villain who’s just terrible, I don’t need them to be misunderstood or have a tragic back story. would be much more fun if they were just awful for petty selfish reasons.
thats exactly what ashley wants! i would like a ursula movie like that. although i feel like ppl will be all "dIsnEy Is fAtPhoBiC tHeY sHoW uRsUlA aS cOmPlETly EvIl"
I just noticed her outfit when she’s talking to the baroness with the heirloom has the same tie detail when she got told off by the principal at their school
i LOVE, LOVE, LOVE LOVEE!!!!. characters and especially villains with elegant/posh ways of speaking and fitting outfits. Like BROOO, make villains more elegant and stylish💖🤌💫like theres no reason why heros/villains cant kick ass whilst looking WONDERFULL and talking like they're the king/queen
cruella is literally one of my fav movies of this year now, it's doesn't rlly take itself seriously and it was just a dramatic, campy fun movie and that's all it needed it to be
Ash: I really want a villian with no back story, just a bad person
Cruella's mom: being a bad person for actual no reason
Ash: I hate her so much
😂🤣 wow, that's a true "be careful what you wish for"!
Ash, honey, you're being called out 😂
that's a good villain though. you're supposed to hate the villain.

@@Sin_cities this ^^ love Ouat and Cruella was perfect and agreed. She was just a villain naturally.

disney needs to hire you
Yes please
she was literally based on a drag queen like yes plz
Is that base on her story cuz I barely remember anything but at the back of my mind I thought she was a pretty mermaid to before

"why can't villains just be bad?" the once upon a time version of cruella has a whole episode that makes it look like she'll have a tragic backstory, and then at the end of the episode she's like "no I actually am just a bad person" so... sometimes they can be
this movie reminds me of Birds of Prey AND THE SOUNDTRACK SLAP SO HARD TOO
Birds of prey was actually exciting
How
@@cara9751 I think it’s Kyulkung
Birds of prey is actually good ngl 😳
Honestly the soundtrack was the best part of the entire movie.
15:58 Ashley: "oh norrr"
Rosé is quakinggggg 😂
Aline Brosh McKenna, who wrote the screenplay for Devil Wears Prada, was involved in the creating the story of Cruella
This movie was SO good. One of my favorite Disney live actions.
Everyone: WHY DON’T YOU LIKE DALMATIENS??
Estella: BECAUSE THEY KILLED MY MOTHER OKAY? LEAVE ME ALONE
I was going to like but it's perfectly at 69 so I'll just leave a comment
My uncle broke his neck tap dancing once
@@bubzowski3779 does this imply he's still alive to potentially break it again
@@mayo3792 yes

'I love a good villain backstory'
three minutes later
'I just want a villain that's bad, no backstory'
It would have been so great if they'd just let Cruella be evil! It could have been a camp classic, like a more kid-friendly Death Becomes Her!
KID FRIENDLY DEATH BECOMES HER. I NEED THAT NOW IN MY LIFE
Agreed. I kinda miss that about current villains these days. Now these days we have to make sure that they’re sympathetic, to the point where they basically get a free pass from the things they’ve done. And in doing that, I feel like they lose what makes them scary and terrifying.
@@Kayoss13212 cruella is still extremely scary and terrifying, it's you lot missing the point. someone being "unapologetically evil" would equal no backstory (also no selling point), how would cruella be cruella if she had no motive? motives are what make good villains, not just being naturally evil. if you view her in such a light that the things she does is no longer cruel, then you're the one that took this movie wrong. this shouldn't change how you feel about the villain, it should make them more human. it's only redemption if you want it to be
I LITERALLY SAID THAT THIS MOVIE WAS A KIDS VERSION OF THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA
The security guard reaction when she said she jumped like "bitch we know she didn't jump we saw everything"
“It reminded me of the Hunger games” oh yes hunger games with the outfit reveals of drag race
capital C-A-M-P
can we just appreciate all of the fashion throughout this video. those designers need a raise🦋
I watched this in the theater and when she said "that psyco cannot be me mother" the entire theater started cracking up
13:08 if you noticed in the movie when she gets the box of "gold nuggets" delivered but they're actually moth cocoons, the box says from africa too
ngl when the baroness was wearing the heirloom I thought she was cruella's grandmother
“kinda felt wrong enjoying it that much” my mom when she tells me to pray the gay away
Oh sweetie😭😦
tell her to watch that Greys Anatomy scene with Callie and her dad.. 🤪
When she said she “I can’t support the children beating eat other” got me dead !
No one can be pure evil when they are born. There has to be a reason. There is no people purely bad because they can (unless it involves power but thats not true for most Disney characters)
yes but that reason can also be non-substantial, like they just enjoy doing bad things and gain satisfaction from it.
@@shelbyjadan People don't just enjoy doing bad things unless they are sick as in like really twisted (which I don't think Disney would include) or they have a motive
mmm.. yes but what about a psychopath?
@@rftg1793 you'd have to experience some sort of trauma of some sort to become one. Plus, Disney isn't going to include a psychopath in their movies
@@mayabeatty1214 yeah thats why there movies are mediocre and repetitive it's like one of those Christian movies her acting was the same as bre larson or something xD
The soundtrack and the fashion were a masterpiece
Ash has the most delusional story ideas, but I’m here for it.
Ash saying she just wants a villain , reminds me of the joker in - the dark Knight- !! , the best villain ever , no back story ,no reasoning … “ some people just want to see the world burn “ !
But he got abused by his father I think...
@@Hmletmetry i get it tho , but we never know , he made that story up , cause when he threatened the girl he made a completely different story about how he got the scars , in that story it was his wife … so it’s tricky ; I thought what you said at first but when I watched again I was like wait a minute … 🤔 . So it’s really unknown how he got the scars and what started him to be bad in THAT movie .
@@v.o.s9973 Yeah true, I didn't remember everything. We can't know, that's why I love him.
Me and my best friend LOVED this movie.
The Baroness seems like someone who would never eat food from a cardboard box, yet here we are.
Every single song on this soundtrack is PERFECT and I love it
I think the reason I adore this movie so much is because my expectations were so low and when I actually ended up liking it I was shook
fun fact: emma thompson(the baroness) also played professor trelawney in harry potter
I thought this was an interesting and entertaining movie. I liked some of the choices they made like using the dalmations as a gauge of how much Estella was becoming like her mother, the grunge aesthetic, and how they touched on the theme of nature vs nurture. In psychology you learn that it is not that people are born evil, but your traits combined with your life experiences lead you to the person you become.
A known mass murderer (the Ice Box Man) had a trait of not being afraid or not being frozen by fear in dangerous situations. If he hadn't had a childhood of abuse he might have used his 'courage' in the face of danger to save others such as being a police officer, a soldier, or a firefighter. A different upbringing might have lead him to become a completely different person. Going back to Disney's approach to nature vs nurture, we see the same thing with Cruella. She is witty and has a strategic type of mind; the story offers us an alternate version of events, that Cruella is not evil for the sake of being evil. She was born with the potential of accomplishing anything, but it is her interactions with people who dismiss her or treat her poorly that leads her to the 'villain' we know from the original "101 Dalmations". Notice how every time she lashes out against someone it is only after she is wronged by that same person.
I had a theory throughout the movie that the butler was her dad and the hair was hereditary since he is bald.
I thought that too, I was shook when they revealed the actual twist.
12:52 THIS SCENE IS ABSOLUTELY *EVERYTHING TO ME!!!* I LITERALLY FREAKED OUT WHEN I SAW IT! I ALMOST SCREAMED IN THE MOVIE THEATER! 🗣🗣🗣
13:30-13:32 I am deceased. Ashley you have done it again; surpassing expectations in flying colors. I couldn't stop laughing to that little clip. It now lives rent free in my mind. Thank you and enjoy your day.
can we talk about her red lights & red fit, she never misses.
also her singing along with the soundtracks, i absolutely STANN
" yall arent in love with ur frens, thats weird" first of all maam i need said frens
ashley is now making me try to think of a villian who is just pure evil without a sad backstory
Frollo?
Jafar? (And actually cruella when she was obsessed with fur for fashion)
Someone else brought it up, but Voldermort.
the soundtrack and the outfits really brought this movie to a new level
The dynamic between the Baroness and Cruella was so amazing I was screaming when watching that movie
Disney spoiling cruella not dying is about the most Disney thing ever
Wdym we don't want her dead
@@lavenderbambi3501 I know but Disney putting that seen in the movie we’re she might die in the house fire only for them to promote the second cruella movie before most people could see it.
@@CatNagTaylorsVersion scene* and where*
It’s a movie for children obviously they had to do that
@@Melissastu really? There is literally a count on TH-cam of deaths in Disney movies.
Ok but like why doesnt anyone talk about how Ashley's voice is literally so pretty ahhhh, Girl can singggg
I feel like this is the wrong audience to say this... but I'm tired of Disney doing LA female origin stories in which the viallain is just misunderstood. Why can't she just be pure evil because she wants to, evil women do exist.
I don't want a misunderstood Ursula. I want an Ursula who is not competent at ruling, nasty and evil who thinks her brother is weak and not fit for the throne and tries to steal it from him.
But we all know Disney will do the reverse in which Ursula is the smart, tactical and uber amazing woman to her incompetent sexist brother.
Thank you very much. I think Maleficent could work, but Cruella is a person who wants someone else's dogs so she could skin them for coats??
absolutely agree with this. I would love to see a female villain who’s just terrible, I don’t need them to be misunderstood or have a tragic back story. would be much more fun if they were just awful for petty selfish reasons.
@@adrianmars2603 and crazy great acting to not these boring one xD
thats exactly what ashley wants! i would like a ursula movie like that. although i feel like ppl will be all "dIsnEy Is fAtPhoBiC tHeY sHoW uRsUlA aS cOmPlETly EvIl"
@@gfdchugh i dont trust a person who uses "xD"
I just noticed her outfit when she’s talking to the baroness with the heirloom has the same tie detail when she got told off by the principal at their school
i LOVE, LOVE, LOVE LOVEE!!!!. characters and especially villains with elegant/posh ways of speaking and fitting outfits. Like BROOO, make villains more elegant and stylish💖🤌💫like theres no reason why heros/villains cant kick ass whilst looking WONDERFULL and talking like they're the king/queen
This is honestly one of my favourite movies
cruella is literally one of my fav movies of this year now, it's doesn't rlly take itself seriously and it was just a dramatic, campy fun movie and that's all it needed it to be
Yes it is and what about it? It’s still iconic
.
(Edit: omg thanks for noticing me mom ❤️🔥luv u sm!)
The way you said “oh, I’m not supposed to support the children beating each other” had mw creasing 😂😂
Can we talk about Ash hitting that note at 19:23 because honestly, it was just so pretty.
