"Uhh... Gordon was a high-priced defense attorney and you sir have been coaching peewee hockey for the better part of three decades." Really funny stuff. You've got great timing. Do more of these.
I always assumed the 0-9 record that Connie talked about was from their previous season, while the first game we see them play against the Hawks was their first actual game in the current season.
I know this video is old. I just wanted to mention my favorite thing about the preposterousnous of this movie is how this peewee hockey team keeps ending up on the front page of this national hockey publication.
The actor that played Hans appeared in Lethal Weapon 2 as the main villain Arjen Rudd. Danny Glover shot him in the head at the end. What an awesome kill to the ending of an action film. It was so creepy seeing him as the villain in Lethal Weapon 2 because I was so used to seeing him as the good natured Hans in the Mighty Ducks films.
Well that's embarrasing. I guess my rumor of his death was greatly exagerated. 😜 Minus the three words derived from my sheer stupitity, the rest is true.
Thr Ducks making the playoffs with that record isn't so far fetched. This movie was from the early 90s when about 16/21 teams made the playoffs in the NHL
Thanks to this movie the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (AKA Anaheim Ducks) NHL team was then born and still playing to this very day! Go Ducks Go! I hoping that they make it to the 2019 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs! I can't wait to check out this movie, I've heard a lot of good things about this movie! Why hasn't gotten lots of views and thumbs up?! You deserve them for this movie review!👍😎🏒🏆
As this film is set in Minnesota, the Mighty Ducks making the district finals with their shitty record might be a nod to the Minnesota North Stars, which made the Stanley Cup Final the year prior with a losing record, but lost to the Pittsburgh Penguins.
How did the Hawks and the Ducks not play each other in the first round. Usually sports have it where the #1 seed plays against the lowest seed in the playoffs unless the #1 seed in this league gets an automatic bye into the finals.
"Somehow that tie may be just what you need to make the playoffs!!" His expression for a frame at 5:12 is an appropriate response to the previous dialogue.
The issue I take with the poaching of Adam Banks is that no-one asked Adam what he wanted, or seemed to care--neither his abusive coach & Dad, nor Bombay, nor the Hawks or the Ducks. This is the entire tragic problem of the Banksy character. He's been traumatised by pressure and expectation and emotional blackmail, plus he's not naturally assertive, and people exploit his gentle agreeable passive nature for their own gain.
It's worth noting that the game was tied when young Gordon Bombay missed that penalty shot...so it's not like it was a guaranteed loss like his coach made it out to be.
When I went to high school, every basketball team in the state made the playoffs. Technically, a team could have won only 7 games all season and been state champions. A football team could go 7-3 and not make the state play offs if they were 3rd in their division.
Yeah, but Bombay, the guy who needs to learn winning isn't everything, is super happy to poach the best player, removing him from his friends, just to win a game.
@@TheDancerMacabre also the message wasn’t that you shouldn’t try to win the game , you shouldn’t try to win the game at all costs. All Gordon was asking was that the rules were followed and that the Hawks didn’t get special treatment

I mean, Gordon didnt go after Banks cause he wanted to win. He went after him cause Hans showed him the district boundaries changed making Banks apart of District 5
I know your not supposed to read this far into it and enjoy the movies but the logic in each one is way out there. In the first movie a team who before Bombay became their coach had 0 wins. Now they are winning the peewee state hockey championship from a tram that has 1 loss in 20 year's Highly unlikely. I. D2 none of the absent players are acknowledged. The returning players are all over Minnesota but are magically in the same city to be recruited for team USA. In d3 the New players are scattered around the country. I seriously doubt she parents would allow their underage children to relocate so far away from home to play hockey for some preppy private school
This movie was so bad it was actually enjoyable. No surprise Disney decided the issues of race and class discrimination were turned into stupid one liners rather than actually making a movie about building a winning team among poor young kids in Minnesota.
I just liked this video and it went all the way from 69 to 69. Damn, I love TH-cam. My biggest problems with this movie were always Josef Sommer's terribly-written heel turn and that I kept waiting for Joss Ackland to say, "I hate them. I hate the robot versions of them." That Oreo Line joke was racist, but back then it was also funny. It's funny now, you just can't openly admit it. But that's okay, because they'd get back at the other team by staging a hate crime hoax. That's not actually a joke. Jussie Smollett played Terry Hall in this film. _"He must really want to have sex with Charlie's mom."_ I had a pretty big crush on Heidi Kling. Lose the game and start fresh next year or Heidi Kling...hmm.
Yeah ducksworth is no villain. Though it makes zero sense paid vacation for dui. Pee wee hockey jerrymandering disagreement u sir are fired! U disgust me Bombay!
They have a 10 team league... letting 8 teams into the playoffs is stupid. One team got sick and another team lost every single game which put the Ducks at 8th outta 10 teams. Yep, really stupid
I didn't get the "joke" when he says "oreo line" when I was younger. The benefits of growing up where no one gives a rats ass about people's skin color and no one every tries to play the victim.
Oreo line is racist but "get your vanilla booty out of here" isn't? You got selective hearing or something? And no, it's not racist. Neither of the phrases are. But it's interesting to see which one you chose to decide was potentially racist.
John Smith Lol. It doesn't upset me. I just think it sucks and expressed that opinion. You're the one who said illogical things like "relax". Just because someone doesn't like something and they acknowledge it doesn't mean they're "upset" or need to "relax". People don't always have positive opinions about movies, dude. Chill.
Nothing is going to make me not love these movies from my childhood... but this analysis Sir is absolutely hilarious! Hahahahaha!
it annoys me how we lost jessie in movie 3 and that funny short mexican kid after movie 1
@@razkable annoys me they lost Jesse..I'd keep him over russ (heard the two actors didn't get along. I'm fine without Peter (the "Mexican" kid).
"Uhh... Gordon was a high-priced defense attorney and you sir have been coaching peewee hockey for the better part of three decades."
Really funny stuff. You've got great timing. Do more of these.
1:17 I laughed at this for way too long 😂😂 there were actually a few games in that playoff montage before the championship though just to be fair 💁♂️
what's even funnier is when Gordon starts coaching Connie tells him their record is 0-9 so their record is more like 1-11-1 lol
Hey, one was pretty close though. They only lost by 5 and they almost scored a goal too
@@Solemindband Hey, it's the Connie Meister, the velvet hammer. Haha. I still love this movie.
I always assumed the 0-9 record that Connie talked about was from their previous season, while the first game we see them play against the Hawks was their first actual game in the current season.
How much quack were these moviewriters smoking?
Niceeeee
Let's just say they smoked just enough to not give a duck. :P
All the quack.

What an excellent actor, rest in peace. One of his finest roles was playing C.S. Lewis in Shadowlands.
"Diplomatic immunity"
He was also the main bad guy in Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey too.

In the NHL you can literally make the playoffs if you lose every game in overtime.
Plus i'm pretty sure they won more than one game
Champions with a COLOSSAL record of 1-7 and 1. GO DUCKS!
what's even funnier is when Gordon starts coaching Connie tells him their record is 0-9 so their record is more like 1-11-1 lol
No they actually have 2-3 wins since one team forfeited technically
@@jongon0848 Actually, 1-12-1 (if you count the forfeit against the Flames).
Haha I didn't even realize he was wearing a football helmet. Shows you how much I love hockey.

Pretty sure people picked that up when they announced the team as the Mighty Ducks and used the logo from the movie
The egg drill actually isn't a horrible idea. Yeah, it's unorthodox, but there is definitely practicality behind it

Stop logically dismantling my childhood
I have been binging on your videos; your reviews are excellent :)
Your channel is really underrated.
Freakin hilarious!!!!
One thing you should've pointed out (and if you did sorry I missed it) but why the hell are there newspaper articles about a pee-wee hockey team?
Funny that you mentioned The Bad News Bears because that is exactly the film that the head writer Steven Brill was inspired from. XD
talks about gerrymandering in peewee hockey... Its Minnesota HOCKEY WHAT DID YOU EXPECT!
Do you know an actual team was named after them they are such good films
What a stupid name with even gayer colors. I hate Disney so much
Every hockey fan knew that
How does one get called a piece of garbage for breaking a coffee machine
It's worth noting that the game was tied when young Gordon Bombay missed that penalty shot...so it's not like it was a guaranteed loss like his coach made it out to be.
you never mention on the end that 2-kids are kissing each other in front of everyone. lol
It's the only time Guy and Connie kiss in the whole franchise. That includes the first season of the TV show.
.....and so Charlie's obsession begins lol
They mentioned a few teams had to drop out so it's not that far fetched
“YOU SUCK GORDON” 😂😂
When I went to high school, every basketball team in the state made the playoffs. Technically, a team could have won only 7 games all season and been state champions. A football team could go 7-3 and not make the state play offs if they were 3rd in their division.
Great Trilogy!
Sir have considered breaking down the Cohen bothers “Fargo”?
Only able to watch 3 episodes it says that there 10 videos hidden?
The rules said that Adam should have been playing for the Ducks, Bombay expecting the league to enforce that rule was the right thing to do.
Yeah, but Bombay, the guy who needs to learn winning isn't everything, is super happy to poach the best player, removing him from his friends, just to win a game.
@@TheDancerMacabre so the rules don’t apply to people like Adam so they can be with their friends?

@@pendafen7405 What Banks wants is irrelevant. The rules are the rules.
Good analysis at 1:03, but now we trust kids to know if they want to have sex changes or not, society is losing it
I mean, Gordon didnt go after Banks cause he wanted to win. He went after him cause Hans showed him the district boundaries changed making Banks apart of District 5
I agree. but it's a bias narrator; what can ya do?
plz do a D3 mighty duck one!! these are so funny!!!

Great video!!!!! Laughing a lot here
The thunderdome league of 1992 letting Ducks in playoffs with one victory =Modern times where..win lose or draw, kid gets a trophy
Walter hasn't aged since getting to age 55
So this movie is just like rebound but just hockey. Rebound is a basketball movie where the team sucks and then they make the championship and wins
This movie was so bad it was actually enjoyable. No surprise Disney decided the issues of race and class discrimination were turned into stupid one liners rather than actually making a movie about building a winning team among poor young kids in Minnesota.
