Will do as you are reviewing The Nutcracker (2009) which I suggested to you last week. All I can advise to you is.................... you have my sympathy if you haven't watched it yet.
Air Bud: Who are you? Santa Paws: I'm Santa Paws, Air Bud you've become apart of a bigger universe you just don't know it yet. I'm here to talk to you about the Super Buddies initiative.
The original first Air Bud movie is actually a rather charming, harmless family film. But yeah it didn't warrant all those sequels let alone spin offs.
“God bless us everyone” -A Christmas Carol “Perhaps Christmas means a little bit more” -How The Grinch Stole Christmas “Every time a bell rings and angel gets his wings” -It’s a wonderful Life “Merry Christmas Kevin” -Home Alone “NO ONE’S PARENTS ARE COMING FOR THEM!!!!” -Santa Paws
At least that quote is somewhat Christmassy as that’s what you scream when Jehovah’s Witnesses come knocking at your door trying to convert you to a religion that doesn’t celebrate Christmas when you already got your tree up and presents brought
Seriously, insert that shot from Scrooged with Bill Murray banging on the inside of his burning coffin.... PERFECT. (I genuinely respect the fact they tried to take this to some dark places.)
"Is Santa gonna die!?" In the next room over, Sophie's making her choice, and around the corner Oskar Schindler is crying that he could have saved one more person.
Fun Fact: During Production os Disney’s Snow Buddies they brought in 20 puppies, 5 of which got parvovirus due the the extreme and had to be euthanized before it spreads to the other pups. A family picture!
Movie: from Walt Disney Pictures Also movie: *santa claus almost dies, puppy gets burned in incinerator* *_A F A M I L Y C H R I S T M A S M O T I O N P I C T U R E T H A T W I L L B R I G H T E N Y O U R H O L I D A Y S P I R I T!_*
The weirdest thing to me about the Airbuddies movies is that the dogs could talk. Buddy couldn’t. We went from a normal golden retriever who had learned a special skill to a magic talking puppy who worked for Santa. 😕 Also, Bill Cobbs played the coach/former basketball player in “Air Bud”, so it’s weird seeing him as a different character in this movie.
I found it even weirder when his kids found themselves going on these strange "adventures", from space to the North Pole to suddenly gaining superpowers from magical rings. Their owners need to stop being neglectful brats and keep them from doing all this weird shit. WTF?
@@RisenHellFire And he'd be an evil tabby cat ... that's purple for some reason? And he'd be on a quest to add all six Infinity Charms to his Infinity Collar.
Fun fact, all orphanages have mean people, yeah, that's right, all children in those orphanages suffer, so survive or cry kids, survival is hard, it's hard, suffer, aaaaarrrrrrggggghhhh. Rated 80s G.
Me and my brother tried to watch this with our grandma, but when we saw the scene where Santa gets amnesia and gets robbed, my brother started crying and couldn't finish the movie. And they are one of the toughest people I know. They rarely ever cry!
This is such a depressing special that I was actually surprised that the girl was able to get Paws out of the incinerator so quickly. I was half-expecting her to nearly fall into the fire with him!
Worse yet, if the mean lady actually threw the girl into the incinerator with Paws. Hey, you know this movie would do such a thing if it's balls had grew slightly larger!
I kinda wanna see if someone has cut the "nice" scenes out of the movie and made it a 15-30min descend into depression ending in a dead santa and a burnt puppy.
There's something jarring that all these movies started with Air Bud. Like the original dog has probably been dead for like almost 20 years and their legacy still lives on with talking puppies who are supposed to be his descendants in a variety of films, most of which probably have nothing to do with sports let alone basketball.
Funniest part is that there are people in the real world who are as 1 dimensionally evil as her. No reason, no care, just sadism and/or power lust. Likely also having a few equally power crazed people keeping them from facing the rightful consequences.
Also for some reason Santa Paws first kid in Santa Buddies is totally forgotten in Santa Paws 2 so he could have kids who are Buddies replacements Also how tf is Santa Paws having kids? There was no female dog seen would be pretty messed up if Santa got another stuffed dog for a kid. But Santa Buddies came before Santa Paws so the stuffed dog coming to life mechanic wasn’t seen yet Also it’s funny right after playing Greg Heffley Zachary Gordon played a talking dog. Two talking dogs actually. Santa Paws and his kid
I've been on both sides of Toys For Tots. My parents were Marines, so we lived on base where there were the donation boxes everywhere, hell I evem donated my old toys that were in good condition. Then it was flipped on me when christmas season rolled around. My dad was on a 6 month deployment in Afghanistan, and had missed mot only my birthday but was going to miss Christmas too. So, Toys For Tots also has a small set up for the families who had a loved one deployed, care packages for the moms or dads while the kids got to pick out a toy. They really are an amazing charity, I really reccomend it
Seriously, the content of this movie meshes about as well as My Little Pony meets Schindler's List. Speaking of My Little Pony, one of the orphanage girls is Michelle Creber, the voice of Apple Bloom.
@@slambangaction Weirdly enough, despite all the other rats dressing like nazis, John Turturro isn't dressed like Hitler, but like Andy Warhol, and the rest of the movie is just as inconsistent.
Gertrud Bondesson Wait, he was supposed to be Andy Warhol?! Shit, talk about missing the point of your "characterizations"! I really can't believe that movie is by the same director who made Tango & Cash.
This has to be the most traumatizing movies that I've watched. In 5th grade, we had polar express day, and after we watched that movie, our wicked teacher had the audacity to make us watch the search for santa paus. Well, everything was fine until we got to 15:04 where the dog was about to be burned alive. Well, since there were about 24 10-year olds, we all eurpted into screaming and crying over seeing that scene. Everyone was terrified and in shock, and our teacher stopped the movie right before the girl saves him, so we all believed that the dog had died, leading to more sobbing and our teacher yelling at us for it. Yea.
And what about literally all the other orphan girls? You know, the ones left with the most incompetent social worker ever, who hired a toy-burning lunatic to look after the girls? What happens to them?
Why is everyone running orphanages in movies evil? Like, I imagine someone threatening to put kids in the basement or taking away their belongings given to them by their dead parents would be immediately cracked down on or fired.
And not only this but the anachronism in some films. I’m pretty sure there haven’t been any orphanages in America or Western Europe since the mid 20th century.
7:58 Singing voice sounded familiar, so I went up on IMDb, and this girl was, get this In Santa Buddies, Played a sad orphan dog called "tiny" HAS A SAD SONG, inside a pound, RAN BY A MEAN OWNER, WHO LOATHE'S CHRISTMAS, AND INTERACTS WITH PAWS IN THE 2ND TO 3RD ACT!!!!!! WOW!!! fun fact, she is quote "the youngest ever Top 10 Finalist on America's Got Talent".
The story's about learning about a side character from Santa Buddies, much like how Finding Dory is about learning about a side character from Finding Nemo.
I guess he just didn't expect it from an Air Bud spinoff. TBT, I think it's kinda cool when direct to video films have this much effort and high stakes, but like Doug said, it doesn't work if the plot and characters aren't charming or likable to handle the darkness.
Madeline Angier There are many people who love cute puppies, so why not make more? I thought these types of movies died in the early 2010s, but I was wrong. What’s happening to the world of films?
What was the search part of this movie? If anything, Paws was searching for Claus, not the other way around. I heard of this movie and thought it was gonna be an epic origin story for Santa Paws being a job of dogs throughout time working with Santa Claus, instead, is Santa gonna die? Calm the heck down, movie! Lol..Santa Christ approves. Guess it's legit.
I'm crying and laughing simultaneously. It's hilarious, heartbreaking and even a little heartwarming. This movie really reflects the outlook on life so many people have, myself included at one point, but it brings forth the message that people and life itself can be good despite the evil that runs rampant throughout the world. Life can be extremely depressing but once in a while, you get a happy ending. It's not all doom and gloom. To quote a famous Santa look-alike; "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times. One has to simpy remember to turn on the light." This movie really embodies that message from my point of view. Is it a good movie? Not in the traditional sense but it does deserve the attention of critics and some audiences. It creates a certain awareness of what to look out for. Place your focus on what is good but be aware of what wants to harm you. Maybe I'm thinking too much about this and analysing it to death. Anyhow, Merry Christmas and God bless.
I'm still trying to wrap my head around Disney thinking that the Nutcracker by way of action/fantasy was a bankable investment. Like did they think to themselves, "Well of course! The Nutcracker! Box Office gold!"
@@jamesloveland7315 i thought it was called the nutcracker in 3d & was released in 2010. boy the commercials for nutcracker looked so uncanny & i think the boy who played charlie bucket in charlie in the choclate factory played the nutcracker but i never looked into it cause it looked creepy
To be fair, there hasn't been another Air Bud movie or spin-off since 2013. So yeah, it looks like it did die. Though knowing Disney, they'll probably bring it back for Disney+ at some point.
Also what’s funny is when Santa and Santa Paws visited Quinn and Will with their new parents they rlly just talked, gave Quinn her ornament and leave no new presents whatsoever. Yeah the parents may have given Will the bike cuz it was in their toy store but still funny that all Santa and Paws gave them was Quinn’s ornament
@Bitsy83 @Sofa King Yes and yes. The one with Elle Fanning. With Albert Einstein singing a horrible song to the tune of Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy. With toy Aushwitz. And yes, those terrifying "rats" too. Doug is going to have a field day with this.
My too I just can’t believe my shedderwork boss pick this movie for Christmas. She never realizes how mess up this film is. Sweet little girl voice asking to kindly please to get it back only for a mean heartless day voice tell her to go upstairs or end up suffer and sleep in the basement
The Buddies series was my childhood! I never liked the Paws movies. I remember starting to watch Santa Paws but stopped near the start because it was just too sad for my young mind. After watching this review, I'm kinda glad I didn't finish it as a kid otherwise I would be just as sad as I was after watching Bambi. I could not calm down and didn't watch it again until I was older.
@@IppoX90 It's a problem in a ton of movies, just why would child hating people want to be teachers, nannies or birthday clowns, and more importantly, who's going to employ a person who clearly hates children as a caretaker for them? It's like hiring a militant vegan for your butcher-shop.
I actually prefer this review to Bobsheaux's. Both reviews are good, but Bobsheaux focused on all the plot holes, whereas Doug focused on the unexpectedly dark content, which I think is a much bigger problem. I really hope they upload a First Viewing. I want to see Rob's reaction to this movie.
Okay, gotta say, that jacket is kinda awesome. Looks like it came from the Don Cherry collection (and as a Canadian, that is a compliment, don't worry!)
the thing that really gets me about the air bud/dies movies is like, it took the semi grounded movie airbud where the biggest break in reality was that a dog was allowed on a basketball team to five talking puppys who have gotten superpowers, gone into space, ect. I remeber really likeing the first air buddies and the one where they’re in a dog sled race, but there was a semi cohesive idea that was stringing those two, kinda(still not sure how i feel about the dogs just taking)idk, if the movie titles didnt have air buddies in it i wouldent even think this any of the others are connected to the og air bud at all.
It's a FAMILY picture!

There had to be at least ONE kid in that class that was too "edgy" and "mature" for this movie.
Let me guess, the toy store owner and his wife are going to adopt either the first orphan or multiple of them
Later
I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!
Bobby Arteaga hahaha...yeah
And what about literally all the other orphan girls? You know, the ones left with the most incompetent social worker ever, who hired a toy-burning lunatic to look after the girls? What happens to them?
nkbujvytcygvujno you did see that she was fired right?
Why is everyone running orphanages in movies evil? Like, I imagine someone threatening to put kids in the basement or taking away their belongings given to them by their dead parents would be immediately cracked down on or fired.
Because its an open secret that many evil people are in child care positions. 🤔
Meet the Robinsons?
And not only this but the anachronism in some films. I’m pretty sure there haven’t been any orphanages in America or Western Europe since the mid 20th century.
Holy crap this is the darkest Christmas movie I've ever seen
5:56 Okay even the cruel owner of the orphanage from Annie wouldn’t go as far as to yank a little girl’s hair to warrant her attention.
Satan is looking at this lady and listing off new ideas on how to be evil
Yeah, *she* doesn't even like touching those kids
wasn't she part of a plan to murder and rob Annie?
Next she’ll starve Oliver Twist to death mwa ha ha ha
Why does all the cruel orphanage owners seems to have led a labor camp in their past?
These cheap dog movies never end!
As long as there's money in the world.
kremit the frog there’s almost as many movies as the Land Before Time movies
7:58
Singing voice sounded familiar, so I went up on IMDb, and this girl was, get this
In Santa Buddies,
Played a sad orphan dog called "tiny"
HAS A SAD SONG,
inside a pound, RAN BY A MEAN OWNER, WHO LOATHE'S CHRISTMAS,
AND INTERACTS WITH PAWS IN THE 2ND TO 3RD ACT!!!!!!
WOW!!!
fun fact, she is quote "the youngest ever Top 10 Finalist on America's Got Talent".
But at least the dogcatcher in that movie redeemed himself.
And was Christopher Lloyd
And look at her now!
... Don't quit school kids.
Also Zachary Gordon voicing kid Santa Paws and Santa Paws’ son in Santa Buddies
Any chance of Chaplin being in this review to counter the puppies?
Santa Paws: Where children lost their families, Santa loses his memories, and a dog is nearly burned to death.
😨Wait what...?
Why is it called the search for Santa paws, when they spent the whole movies looking for santa
The story's about learning about a side character from Santa Buddies, much like how Finding Dory is about learning about a side character from Finding Nemo.
@@kylemorello4787 But in Finding Dory they actually spent some time trying to find Dory
The puppy looks cuter on the cover than Santa.
@@TechiAuto that's not too surprising. Santa's a wonderful character, but it's a dog!
I really do think you need to review the movie Home Alone 4.
A Disney movie that mixes fun and whimsy with death and random acts of over-the-top evil? Yeah, I am so surprised... Never happened before.
I guess he just didn't expect it from an Air Bud spinoff. TBT, I think it's kinda cool when direct to video films have this much effort and high stakes, but like Doug said, it doesn't work if the plot and characters aren't charming or likable to handle the darkness.
Why are there SO MANY of these movies??
Madeline Angier There are many people who love cute puppies, so why not make more? I thought these types of movies died in the early 2010s, but I was wrong. What’s happening to the world of films?
Money, money, and money.
Hugh Mungus Yeah, just like Mr. Krabs.
I thought these movies lost steam, after several puppies got sick and nearly died on one of these film-sets...
Madeline Angier "We got to have...MONEY".
What was the search part of this movie? If anything, Paws was searching for Claus, not the other way around. I heard of this movie and thought it was gonna be an epic origin story for Santa Paws being a job of dogs throughout time working with Santa Claus, instead, is Santa gonna die? Calm the heck down, movie!
Lol..Santa Christ approves. Guess it's legit.
I'm crying and laughing simultaneously. It's hilarious, heartbreaking and even a little heartwarming. This movie really reflects the outlook on life so many people have, myself included at one point, but it brings forth the message that people and life itself can be good despite the evil that runs rampant throughout the world. Life can be extremely depressing but once in a while, you get a happy ending. It's not all doom and gloom. To quote a famous Santa look-alike; "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times. One has to simpy remember to turn on the light." This movie really embodies that message from my point of view. Is it a good movie? Not in the traditional sense but it does deserve the attention of critics and some audiences. It creates a certain awareness of what to look out for. Place your focus on what is good but be aware of what wants to harm you. Maybe I'm thinking too much about this and analysing it to death. Anyhow, Merry Christmas and God bless.
Nazis in Nutcracker? Surprisingly it will probably be more accurate to the source than "The Nutcracker and the Four Realms".
I'm still trying to wrap my head around Disney thinking that the Nutcracker by way of action/fantasy was a bankable investment. Like did they think to themselves, "Well of course! The Nutcracker! Box Office gold!"
I just hope it didn’t leave a massive stain on Miranda Hart’s career she just got into Hollywood after years on British TV she deserves to make it big
+John Tumahab It's obviosly his next review. The 2009 Nutcracker Musical film with Elle Fanning and John Turturro
@@jamesloveland7315 i thought it was called the nutcracker in 3d & was released in 2010. boy the commercials for nutcracker looked so uncanny & i think the boy who played charlie bucket in charlie in the choclate factory played the nutcracker but i never looked into it cause it looked creepy
Words eaten??
One of the movies is called “Air Bud Dies.” That messed me up as a kid
You mean “Air Buddies?”
Daniel Attrell haha this comment made my day even though it’s not even funny
@@dragonzrule55 r/woooosh
Well, the original dog died shortly after Air Bud. Very sad.
15:12 This kid is easily the best child actor I've seen in a while, at least in this scene.
Dang, this movie is crazy dark.
the Air Bud franchise refused to die long after the original Air Bud actually died. Disney ran this shit far into the ground
To be fair, there hasn't been another Air Bud movie or spin-off since 2013. So yeah, it looks like it did die.
Though knowing Disney, they'll probably bring it back for Disney+ at some point.
Honestly these were my guilty pleasures as a kid and had a soft spot for super buddies,
15:16
Jojo Phantom Blood Remastered looks pretty neat.
This is an alternate universe where Danny lives
This is the comment I was looking for.
Oh my God!
This movie feels super depressing... except for the scene with the dog in the sleigh near the end, that one made me laugh.
Also what’s funny is when Santa and Santa Paws visited Quinn and Will with their new parents they rlly just talked, gave Quinn her ornament and leave no new presents whatsoever. Yeah the parents may have given Will the bike cuz it was in their toy store but still funny that all Santa and Paws gave them was Quinn’s ornament
"Like putting Nazis in Nutcracker"
Every Film Brain and Musical Hell fan has probably understood that reference. Doug, are you really going there?!
Terézia Marková Are we talking about that weird version of Nutcracker that came out a few years ago?
Is it the movie with the human rats?
@Bitsy83
@Sofa King
Yes and yes. The one with Elle Fanning. With Albert Einstein singing a horrible song to the tune of Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy. With toy Aushwitz. And yes, those terrifying "rats" too. Doug is going to have a field day with this.
Also Moaning Myrtle voicing The Nutcracker
@@mrcritical6751 not nutcracker but NC. Yes. He wanted to be called NC instead.
experience a epic family xmas movie where everyone dies!
and that is the skinniest santa ever
I DONT NEED A NOTIFICATION BELL, MY DEPRESSING SENSES WERE TINGLING
your picture makes this comment lol
@@icyblue1409 : ikr?!
No wonder this film gave me PTSD as a kid
My too I just can’t believe my shedderwork boss pick this movie for Christmas. She never realizes how mess up this film is. Sweet little girl voice asking to kindly please to get it back only for a mean heartless day voice tell her to go upstairs or end up suffer and sleep in the basement
Is nobody going to talk about the Snow Buddie's puppy deaths?
*e x c u s e m e?*
I... don’t remember that.
I feel like I’d remember that.
I think they're talking about behind the scenes when some of the puppies being used died?
Oh yeah 5 puppies died from Parvovirus during the making of that movie.
Been waiting all day
I was waiting since yesterday
11:53 "somebody once told me..."
Me: THE WORLD IS GONNA ROLL ME!
I actually use to love this movie as a kid but...Jesus this movie is even more depressing than I remember
For a Christmas movie this is really depressing
Now I want to see a dog avengers lol.
This Santa looks like the killer Santa from silent night.
Look up Super Buddies, yes it's real
Bobsheax reviewed this and pointed out Santa in the movie looks like he’s wearing Santa’s skin as a body suit
15:23 "I don't know where toy souls go when they burn!"
Let me refer you to a movie named Nutcracker 3D...
Oh! You’re doing THAT movie next week!
Oh, you’re in for a treat Nostalgia Critic!
20:00 The Nutcracker IN 3D!
No. He needs to do the 1994 Macaulay Culkin version.
no, he needs to do the zombie nazi movie that was for some reason happening in winter.
Better than the Four Realms version
@@ObieDobieZoomer Well the Lyosacks' Nazi Zombies 5 is coming. (I know it is totally irrelevant)
How about he reviews Santa vs the Martians
The Buddies series was my childhood! I never liked the Paws movies. I remember starting to watch Santa Paws but stopped near the start because it was just too sad for my young mind. After watching this review, I'm kinda glad I didn't finish it as a kid otherwise I would be just as sad as I was after watching Bambi. I could not calm down and didn't watch it again until I was older.
Pray for Doug’s brain cells after this review!! 🙏
It wasn’t a bad movie tho
@@tjwilkerson2589 Yeah...It was kind of depressing at times actually.
As soon as I heard Nazi's in the Nutcracker, I knew immediately what was coming!
I wish Doug and Rob did a First Viewing of this film
11:50 .....I thought Santa was about to say, "Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me. I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed".
She was looking kinda dumb
@@teal_m_101 With her finger on her forehead

“Can one of them just catch fire or something”
missed opportunity to bring back the extreme laughing girl from the sorcerers apprentice review... it would've been perfect. XD
gosh i hate unrealistic characters like that woman who runs the orphanage. srsly, theres NO WAY someone that mean exists and runs an orphanage!!!
Speaking of that, I've always wondered this about these kind of movies; Why would you get a job like that if you're a child-hating jackass?
Sergeant Cyro The evil mean Grelod from skyrim is a owner of a orphanage.
@@IppoX90 It's a problem in a ton of movies, just why would child hating people want to be teachers, nannies or birthday clowns, and more importantly, who's going to employ a person who clearly hates children as a caretaker for them? It's like hiring a militant vegan for your butcher-shop.
People that hate kids sometimes become teachers so I wouldn't be surprised.
S F Yeah but you would expect more subtle evil actions.
Assassinating the Easter Bunny 😂
Why is Mitchel Musso older Santa Paws?
Is this before Disney hated him?
Wait Disney hates him?😂
So when do we get an AABCU? (Animated Air Bud Cinematic Universe)
Hopefully never✌😁
After Air Bud: Into The Buddie-Verse
stop. just, stop.
I actually prefer this review to Bobsheaux's.
Both reviews are good, but Bobsheaux focused on all the plot holes, whereas Doug focused on the unexpectedly dark content, which I think is a much bigger problem.
I really hope they upload a First Viewing. I want to see Rob's reaction to this movie.
That little story at the end made me tear up a bit, oddly enough. He's right you know, every kid deserves a toy...
or two!
Okay, gotta say, that jacket is kinda awesome. Looks like it came from the Don Cherry collection (and as a Canadian, that is a compliment, don't worry!)
Omg where can I find that suit jacket thing Doug is wearing?
They sell entire suits like that at target
cvan 47 At Macy’s, it’s like 90
Dollars
They’re called “opposuits”. There are more than just Christmas ones online but they ain’t cheep!
Bill Cobbs Was in The Original”Air Bud”Movie,I Love That Movie,&,I Love Him For Being in it
the thing that really gets me about the air bud/dies movies is like, it took the semi grounded movie airbud where the biggest break in reality was that a dog was allowed on a basketball team to five talking puppys who have gotten superpowers, gone into space, ect. I remeber really likeing the first air buddies and the one where they’re in a dog sled race, but there was a semi cohesive idea that was stringing those two, kinda(still not sure how i feel about the dogs just taking)idk, if the movie titles didnt have air buddies in it i wouldent even think this any of the others are connected to the og air bud at all.
