The original actually had 4 musketeers too. The 3 musketeers referenced in the title were Athos, Porthos and Aramis who were a famous group of musketeers. The story starts with young D’artagnan meeting them and becoming part of their group.
Ahhhhhh no wonder Logan Lerman was apart of the movie
@@dandeleon23 Yep! D’art is the baby musketeer being mentored by the famous Three Musketeers!
That’s very interesting thank you very much for sharing
KSC, those names just took my mind to Athos, Pathos and Logos.
I meant ethos not athos.😂
Welchy: “Can there be worse than the polar bear?”
Wait for the elephant…
I remember being so angry at that elephant as a kid 🤣🤣
Barbie as the Island Princess is my favorite Barbie movie but the elephant got on my nerves, even as a kid 😭
@@sarsha737 YES there’s something about that elephant 😩
Yeah Tika is so annoying first I liked her now shes so annoying I mean her eyes are so make up likely?!
omg tika pissed me off
Do not disrespect my girl Viveca’s perfume glitter bomb ability. She went hard for that ✊🏽
she was using my grandma’s perfume so i know how deadly it is
Now I gotta ask...where was she during the 2012 barbie glitter shortage?
@@barbatosteaShe's the reason of that shortage
@@barbatosteadying of insanity most likely😭
I love the glitter perfume but if you didn't know in the early concepts she had a bow and arrow, check out the teaser trailer for example
I remember the fight scenes being badass as a kid. But now it looks so funny to watch as an adult😂
😂😂
@@Welchy it's such an honor getting a reply from you Welchy! Sincerely from a Barbie fan lol. I can't wait to see you guys react to the classic Princess and the Pauper :))
Literally, this used to be my favorite Barbie movie as a kid. I would play it all the time and was always mesmerized with the action scenes, but now as you said it's funny 😭
Dude as a kid this was the most girlbosspussypower action movie ever! I too remember the stunts, the action, the fight scenes and every single reveal being epic.
Now it just looks odd (still amazing imo, but probably more because of the nostalgia)
truuueeee
This was a hecka women empowering movie for 8 year old me. You gotta understand that these aren't Disney & Dreamworks movies which are animated but made for everyone - Barbie movies are specifically made for kids so they use some cliches, a few lame jokes, and talking animals to keep kids' attentions while relaying their message.
I think one of the closest they got to more mature (Disney-esque) humor was The Pink Shoes which is basically a ballet satire - which was AMAZING
I LOVE THE PINK SHOES I THINK IT'S MY FAV BARBIE MOVIE
@@indiabindia5036 MINE TOO!!!!!!!!
Pink Shoes was the last Barbie movie I watched before I felt "too old" to keep up with new ones and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it lmfao, haven't seen it since but probably should if it wasn't just 10 year old me just thinking it was good and it actually was good 😂
Or Diaries. That has some proper adolescent humour. :)
they should just do the fairytopia trilogy
The whole perfume, ribbons and fans fighting techniques just seem like "approved for women at the time" items to have that could be creatively improvised as weapons. Basically a way to sneak in weapons that aren't considered weapons but can still be used as such.
oh yes you’re soooo right!!!
Like hat pins!
I remember thinking at age 10 that it was so cool they were using what were basically girly things to fight. I could not stop twirling a folding fan any time i held one bc of this movie lol
But to be hair anything can actually be a weapon. I just love it's cutesy and very demure
Yess! I loved this concept, things that women were expected to carry around and were "acceptable" being used as weapons! It kinda reminded of how much a similar concept was developed in Totally Spies too! Although more technicologic than the ones in this movie, even totally spies had things that were considered "feminine" and "unquestioned if carried around by women/girls" as weapons! As a kid I loved this concept!
The glitter spray could be perfume which has alcohol as well as glitter which are both irritating to the eyes so it's the early version of pepper spray in a way 😂
nah that is my grandma’s perfume
@@ceIibacy doesn't mean it won't burn the eyes though
@@ceIibacy grandmas perfume can kill if sprayed enough
as someone who's had perfumed sprayed into their eyes - that stuff burns like hell
@@robyn._. i know but i was just trying to joke 😭
ok it is kinda stupid when u watch it as an adult but watching this movie as a little girl genuinely made me feel the most powerful. most other movies at the time were nowhere near this good at conveying this message, especially not ones aimed at young girls
Exactly! And it transgressed languages! I didn't speak fluent English then but it was still just as beautiful
I never understood how they believed Barbie shouldn't be a musketeer but could believe she was behind a plot to kill the prince
Fans actually are a form of weapons. There's the Chinese war fan, and the tessen to name a couple. And ribbons can also be used as actual weapons so the weapons weren't really inaccurate( save for the perfume, that was just ridiculous)
Don't you dare look down on perfume😭😭
I always thought it was something else disguised as perfume
The perfume would irritate his eyes so it could work partially
There is also a Japanese fan called a Tessen. They are metal fans.
Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper has a villain that CAN definitely top Rothbart btw...
agreed 💯
Preminger hands-down best barbie villain
@@MrsSetsuna101Fr
@@MrsSetsuna101 man is so iconic
I just really love barbies. they were so advanced for their time. For girls, they were a much better role model than all the other cartoons. And here the team is completely made up of girls, and even trained by an old woman. Even now there is nothing like it. These were cartoons aimed at girls, while a bunch of others was made for boys. I'm glad you guys are registering for them. It's always interesting to see the perspective
There's nothing like it? Have you ever heard if Sailor Moon? xD They had a team of female heroines since 1992.
@@sailorcat yeah and sailor moon isn't as popular o
@@brinaskore First of all, what does that matter? I just wanted to say that something like this does exist. And second, it's still among the 30 highest grossing media franchises. Sure, Barbie is higher, but as I said, that wasn't even the question.
@@sailorcat Yes, I know Sailor Moon. But I'm talking about what came out in America and reached my country
@@sailorcat Not to mention gay couples as well (even though the English dub messed it up and made it seems like one of the gay couples were cousins?)
A big problem I had with the movie was the villains final plan, He wanted to sneak in a sword, disguised as a decorations. To then attack him in the middle of the ball with everyone around him during the Fireworks, which luckily for him everyone went right to the window to look at instead of anyone hanging around behind the prince to look at them. he could've just had his men stationed at one of the entrances and sneak in a dagger, then wait or lure the prince to a secluded area and stab him, I mean his dog is literally named Brutus.
Yo, not the dog dealing the final stab XD
i mean lets be honest the idea had some merit
as a kid the ballroom fightscene was literally the most epic thing I've ever witnessed
Sameeee I remember seeing it for the first time and be absolutely amazed!!!
I love watching you two watch Barbie movies 😂
same love there reactions
Same!
watched this with my friend recently and we did a "take a shot everytime there's some casual misogyny"... best believe we were smashed by the end😭
For another Barbie reaction you should try Barbie Mermadia. It's different and older from a Mermaid Tale (and has a better adventure team duo in my opinion)
Ohhh yes and fairytopia
Yeah i agree! In mermaid tale Barbie doesn't want to save the mermaid kingdom and didn't believed that she was the princess. She is fleeing from her responsabilities which is wrong AND wanted to abandon the mermaids by making a wish to a magic fish. Not sure it is a good message to learn to kids and adults. In mermaidia Barbie did everything to save the mermaid kingdom. She was brave and kind, never loose hope too. What she teaches us in Mermaidia was important and positive 🙂
best barbie movie
Oh yes! I hope welchy and rival would adore bibble as much as we do. Plus, the only thing that made the mermaid tale better is the mother. I know welchy and rival loves a good milf😂
@Lady Pool Actually, in the 1st Mermaid Tale though she planned to refuse to be a princess and only helped to get rid of the mermaid changes, it was because she was never told about any of it beforehand. She was lead to believe that she was fully human and mermaids weren't real, so it isn't really fair to expect her to just immediately except this whole other role and stuff that was dumped on her out of nowhere(at least from Merlia's perspective). She basically got blindsided so Merlia's reaction is pretty realistic since it's not easy to deal with finding out that *everything* you thought you knew about the world and yourself was wrong. Plus, in the end when she is finally offered the chance to abandon her responsibilities with zero personal consequences, she passes on it and accepts the mermaid and princess stuff.
Even as a princess though it would be wrong to expect her to sacrifice the entire life she had been building to only be a mermaid princess, without any kind of reservations/hesitation. It's not easy to accept responsibilities that you never actually new existed, let alone ever even asked for. Not every girl dreams of becoming a mermaid and/or princess.
Also, when she called on the Dream Fish, she didn't actually know for sure what it was actually going to offer to her as her "greatest desire". In the moment she just wanted to escape a whirlpool she was trapped in and called in the fish hoping it could help her.
You can't really compare Merlia(Mermaid Tale) and Elena(Fairytopia) to each other since both are made to be different characters even in personality. Their circumstances are also completely different(1 is in the "real world" and the other in a fantasy realm). Also, Elena took the thing she learned from Azure in Fairytopia to heart("for the friends you haven't met yet") so it's easy to see why she would be more than willing to help save the Prince(who had helped her out in the 1st Fairytopia) and his kingdom.
Merlia on the other hand never had any personal ties to the mermaid kingdom, NOT counting the blood relation since she'd never known about it previously due to her grandfather lying to her saying both her parents were dead. She also never had a mentor like Azura to help her learn the value of helping people you don't know(besides activism).
this movie made me a feminist as a child lmao i was swinging a broom in the air, a towel in my back as a cape saying I DON'T NEED NO MAN I MY LIFE I'M A GIRLBOSS
RIGHTTTT I was cartwheeling off my couch and flipping with my hat nd cape 😭💗
I was playing musketeer with my grandma's knitting kit😂
Fans were actually used as weapons in some cultures, either because they held hidden blades or because they were made of metal or some material that could be sharpened at the edges.
Perfume really hurts in the eyes... if you don’t have pepper spray, perfume is your best shot. All the chemicals should not even get close to the eyes. It really is a good weapon.
Well, why complicating simple things ?
Or in someones mouth
@@a.g.demada5263tf?
Okay I didn't really look back in those details, but for castle cleaners, they sure have big individual fancy beds to sleep on. As a child, I wanted to be a musketeer when this movie came out but now I want to be a cleaner with a big fancy bed lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂 yesss those huge beds and huge room would be extremely expensive even now
The fact that he insulted Hawkeye while he’s in the hospital 😂
Welchy: We came for violence... what did we get? 😔
Rival: Perfume 😐
Lmao you're both so chaotic it's just the best
i DESPERATELY need you two to watch monster high movies together next 😂😂
YES PLEASE
PLEASE GOD THEY NEED TO
PLEASEEEE
And the webisodes
YESSS. Especially Boo York, that’s my favorite one!
my favourite Barbie movies now that I’m older is Barbie and The Christmas Carol (I didn’t realize just HOW good it was as a kid. So well done) and Barbie and the Twelve Dancing Princesses (one of the best Barbie couples because they both are badass and it focuses on sisters)
Seeing this on my home page just now actually brought a smile to my face, even though I'm not having the best of days right now. So thank you two for watching Barbie movies, I guess. It brings me great happiness in these trying times.
Hope everything gets better! Hang in there 🙏🏼
3:52 fun fact: That is Light Yagami's voice actor. Death Note and Barbie are forever intertwined XD
Is it just me who enjoys Welchy being low-key grumpy? 😂
nah mate i roll with this lol
In the original musketeers history there's also 4 people. It's often called The Three Musketeers and D'artagnan.
As soon as you hear Tim Curry's voice, you know who the villain is, even when I watched it when I was small I thought so🤣He also did the rat king from Barbie Nutcracker. But yeah I remember finding the perfume attack so stupid 😂
You NEED to watch Barbie The Princess and the Pauper
The villain is a serious contender for best villain in a Barbie movie. He's voiced by Martin Short!! Also there's 2 Kens and they are both okay. Plus the story is actually not terrible?
Also also Barbie the Princess and the Popstar is not at all comparable to Princess and the Pauper. The titles are similar but the stories are very different.
It's like princess and the popstar has better graphics but the plot evolved backwards😂
16:11 this scene, the fighting scene was the most nostalgic part of the movie Welchy. She used the perfume as a distraction for the enemies. I loved this movie from my childhood. Like one of the commentators said that it’s an early version of pepper spray
The point of the animals is to have more toys to sell lmao.
I remember my parents having to buy the carriage, and the horse and one Barbie separate for me as a kid. I owned like an amalgamation of a carriage from Princess and the pauper (I think), the blond haired barbie from diamond castle, the horse was either from the Pegasus movie or just to have a horse for the carriage idk, and later on the main character from a mermaids tale I bought at a yard sale. I also owned some other ones, but those were not Mattel ones so not sure if they count lol.
I also had a game of the twelve dancing princesses. A surprisingly challenging platformer for the group it was targeted towards. At least that’s how I remember it.
3:37 She didn’t ride the horse to America. The movie is based in France in the 1700s. The Eiffel Tower wasn’t built yet. This is what Paris looked like back in the 18th century.
this review was funny but you got to remember this was made so long ago and this was a cartoon catered for young girls, the perfume mist was an amazing touch and that ballroom fight scene had my jaw on the floor
This is my favourite Barbie movie. This was my childhood. Corinne, Vivica, Renee and Aramina were my role models. I still watch this when I’m feeling bad and need a pick me up. This and Barbie Spy Squad. Also princess charm school and rockin royals.
It started with you two reacting to Barbie movies, now I can't stop myself from binge-watching all of Welchy's movie commentaries. I love you both guys.
watching these when you're an adult is a rollercoaster
i don't remember half of anything happening, that's how out of pocket they are
I used to watch this movie purely for the extra scene at the end when the horses are dancing to Unbelievable, every one of these reactions unlocks core memories of my childhood
These videos give me life especially when they’re Barbie. I want moreeeee
🙏🏼
If you want another Barbie villain crush, I *strongly* recommend Preminger from Princess and the Pauper.
Trust me bro
This movie was revolutionary and a banger when it came out. I was doing ninja moves left and right because of it.
The movie: “as if a girl could be a musketeer”
Them: “It’s gonna be a whole movie of them saying this”
Me: Yep, that’s accurate😂😂😂😂
I started howling at 6:15 I didn’t expect them to get so upset about the perfume spraying 😂🤣😂
Also the way they were shook when the cat fought the dog 🤣🤣
This is the first Barbie movie they’ve watched that I actually grew up watching aside from diamond castle. Waiting for them to do princess and the pauper and the 12 dancing princesses those were my faves
This will continue to be my utmost favorite Barbie movie next to The Pink Shoes: the music, the costume, the story, and the action. Definitely wanting more Barbie movies with more action scenes that also mixes in the signature femininity
Things I love about this
- sees the mom "shes a MILF".
- Assuming Corinne killed her dad
- Assuming Corinne is from America instead of any part of France that isnt Paris
- not knowing about the Three Musketeers (og)
- *sees madame Helen* ..."GILF" 😂
- affronted "you are NOT faithful to Rothbart"
Yay more Barbie colabs!
In the era of pure damsels barbie was like a breathe of fresh air. But seeing it as an adult does feel funny ngl. I still rewatch it for pure nostalgia
This is so nostalgic for me as one of my top Barbie movies as a kid though it doesn't hold up *as* much as I remember 😂 Barbie in A Fashion Fairytale is a good one to watch 👀
This movie had such an impact on me as a child, it's not even funny. Like I remember watching that scene from 8:50 where the chandelier drops for the first time and my mind was just blown. Also this movie was responsible for seven-year old me thinking a fan was an actual weapon and my dad making fun of me for that for like 2 months. Wild phase of childhood
It is an actual weapon 😂 there are various ones. Ones that shoot needles and ones that are really big and made of steel and heavy.
18:50 I wrote a little something. The prince says this to the Barbie character (I didn’t pay attention to names). It’s from Barbies perspective.
He looked at me stunned. Looking as though he was a stone statue he managed to mutter,
“Your… a girl?!” I looked at him will a face of disapproval. I wasn’t angry, just disappointed. I responded to with a deep, mocking voice,
“No, I’m a grown man wearing a dress.” Returning to my normal voice, “Of course I’m a girl.”
The trio is back. Welchy, Rival and Barbie 😆💙
9 - 10 year old me would do all those musketeer poses and ofcourse the legendary balancing pose from Charm School movie. I literally had a ✨DREAM✨ That I would become a musketeer one day .
Now I have multiple mental illnesses and Arthritis 😅. Anyway, I love my childhood self and the dreams I had. These movies really were empowering for little girls.
Bruh... perfume is no different of a tactic than tear gas.
Just got off a shift and am watching you guys when I eat my lunch. I'm so happy I don't have to spend time looking for a fun video to watch. It's always a good day when you two decide to release a video together. :)
I like how Rival is constantly in search of a new villain to overthrown Rothbart.
Wait till he meets Preminger from Barbie as the Princess and the Pauper.
This movie was a favorite of mine growing up. I never understood why people would say Barbie was a bad influence or not feminist. All of the movies were stories of capable women who could take care of themselves while being pretty and falling in love
Y’all should watch Barbie: fashion fairytale I’d love to see the reaction to that 😂😂
Wish I could've seen you and rival's reaction to the fake names they used to sneak into the ball lmao
Lady Barbecue
Duchess Ivana Party
Abby Birthday
Countess Ada Lettuce
*Countess Hedda Lettuce
"Do you sleep with socks on"
Well they don't have a heater, and she's not sleeping under a blanket. So her feet would get cold
There have always been four Musketeers. It's called the three Musketeers because the original book is narrated from the perspective of one of them who tells of his friends accomplishemnts. It has confused peope since the beginning
Because of this movie I wanted to be a musketeer too. I, around 8, was devastated when I realized its not a real profession (anymore).
18:33 🤣 "Lady BBQ Catch!!!"
As a tomboy who grew up in southern America and was constantly told I'm good at things for a girl or to be ladylike and generally subjected to that kind of old-fashioned way of thinking this movie was everything me as a little girl
This will go down as a top 3 moment of my year
😂😂😂
It’s a good movie but it has some plot holes. Love watching you guys react to Barbie movies and your collabs in general. Love the videos! You do an amazing job!
Rival and Welchy reacting together. ‘Literally Anything’ Umbrellas are excited at this prospect.
I think fan is a legit weapon. I have seen iron fans that are used by Japanese Samurai, class of feudal Japan
"Why does a fucking animal always have to dance?!" I fucking died lol
You guys should watch The Three Musketeers (2011) sometime. The musketeers is a French tale about three men names Athos, Porthos and Aramis and a young man named D'Artagnan who wants to join the musketeers after his father was murdered. (the movie also features violence. Or maybe try out the BBC series The Musketeers, it has three seasons and more violence and death)
“We did it! Brave MusCATeer!”
“disgusting”
It’s a second gen fanfic of the three Musketeers
Don’t u dare shit on barbie and the 3 musketiers! ITS A ABSOLUTE VIBE
you guys watching barbie movies together is always the best thing
Okay but the perfume part could have literally been a glitter bomb. Like- that would have gotten in their eyes if thrown hard enough. Perfume you gotta get close to someone, and they weren't close lmfao
My friend and I are binging these movies, we’ve finished all the good ones so I’m so glad I get to watch you two 😁😁
I’m sick right now and this is exactly what I needed, thank you so much Welchy!!
The old Barbie movies are chaotic, but that’s more or less the point. Well, maybe not intentionally. But you need to embrace that craziness. Questioning movies like that won’t get you far. Just embrace it.
True, don’t think anyone should question the logistics of a barbie movie 🤣
the day Welchy runs out of barbie movies is the day I cri
Is it just me, or does Barbie share a character model with her friends? (I believe if you were to switch the hair, clothing and skin colour of them around it would be impossible to tell them apart.)
that is the secret of the Barbie doll. Easy to mass produce when all you change are the colors and clothes.
From the Jeremy Renner joke to Drake Bell 💀
LOVED this movie growing up! 😂
just a note that the farm corinne/barbie is from isn't in america!! she lives in france and it makes total sense for her to ride the horse to paris
This was my favorite Barbie movie growing up I’m so happy you’re watching it
Great video ft our comical duo!
Also here's a commentary suggestion?
Back to the future trilogy?
Thank you!!!
fans actually were weaponized in japan. The sheets were made of thin sheets of metal, and it was actively used in warfare.
I've been having a really bad weekend but this video made me smile for the first time. Thanks welchy and rival
Hang in there 🙏🏼
Sadly I remember this being my second favorite Barbie movie as a kid. (Princess and the Pauper on top of course) 😅
I cannot wait for you guys to meet the villain in the princess and the pauper
You guys watching barbie movies is literally my favourite thing on yt im not exaggerating its so funny. I love you guys. Thanks for making me laugh.
P.S if you ever get on the barbie fairytopia series make sure to watch it in this order,
1. Barbie fairytopia
2. Barbie mermaidia
3. Barbie magic of the rainbow
4. Barbie mariposa (its kind of related but basically its a separate story in the same world)
5. Barbie mariposa and the fairy princess
YESSSS I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISS TY FOR DOING THIS! YOU TWO DID AMAZING
WAIT DID YOU DO BARBIE AND THE MERMAID TALE?
I honestly believe that in most Barbie movies the only reason for the love interest is literally just comp-het.
Every time i watch a collab by these 2 their comments are so hilarious 😂🤣
I'm begging please watch Princess and the Pauper next! The villain is chef's kiss in that one.
I guess to be fair, the perfume attack can be useful as it would sort of act like pepper spray. But it just doesn't look or sound cool, which is the main problem. I know it's directed at young girls, and set in a different time period, but still.
ah, yes. The good old Barbie, the REAL Barbie.
Fun fact: The Eiffel tower was built in 1889 and musketeers was a thing in 16th to 18th century. So it’s accurate that the Eiffel Tower didn’t exist yet.
Yasssss you're both back love when you two watch and roast Barbie movies. Should try BRATZ next lmfao
6:56 - That awkward handshake.
"She rode the horse to Paris from America?"
Bro who said she lived in America?💀
