There needs to be a petition to Reese Witherspoon to make 'Presidentially Blonde' happen. I'd watch that so hard. And at this point, the world needs it.
I'm not saying Elle Woods is responsible for the rise in the amount of cruelty free makeup on the market... But we also can't prove that she's NOT the reason
I would definitely argue that Legally Blonde's messaging was a significant contributor to the makeup-and-skincare-enthusiast community becoming more empowered in the overall idea that femininity and beauty-as-art isn't inherently frivolous and can indeed be directly tied to making positive change in the world. I've casually observed as that community has grown and pushed for change using their dollars and voices, and it's been really cool to see the corporate and legislative climate change due to that influence. I think it's totally fair to give the original movie a lot of credit for helping inspire a generation to have their cake and eat it too when it comes to enjoying things for fun/aesthetic/pleasure and still caring about things that matter and having there be no need for those things to conflict.
Yep, I switched to cruelty free products now because of this movie. Just made me think more carefully about what I buy. Plus, I couldn't let Bruiser down 💖
So….. about the pink lighting 💡 According to the behind the scenes from the director, it’s meant to show the joy and/or empowerment Elle is feeling at that moment. That’s why it disappears when she gets fired.
Believe it or not, Reese was pregnant during this and she had written in her contract to get all the shoes when they wrap. She walked off this movie with like 77 free pairs of high fashion shoes And she got a HUGE payday for this sequel. She got a million from the first one, this one she got 15 million, now that would be an awesome day to get paid
Yess! On the first episode of "Get Organized with The Home Edit" (a home makeover show in which Reese Witherspoon is an executive producer), they redid her closet she stores the outfits from a lot of the characters she has played in the past. It was so cool to hear her talk about her previous roles while showing off the iconic looks she was able to take home with her!
This is one of those rare moments where the sequel is actually tons and tons of fun too and has another great core message about animal rights! Elle woods for President 🇺🇸✨
I love that Emmett is only ever a cheer leader and emotional support for Elle and never the "strong handsome male who swoops in and saves the damsel" ♥
Right? And I think it's extra wonderful that the movies still make him a complete character with his own interests, and show Elle caring about his needs and never excluding him, like how they compromise on the wedding plan but she went out of her way to make the ceremony special for him first and then symbolically still include the parts that were important to him later despite the changes. They support and empower each other without anything ever involving one-sided effort, and it's absolutely beautiful. There are a lot of WHOO GIRL POWER narratives out there in media that I've never related to as a chick because they involve too much beating up on guys, but Legally Blonde is one of the most femme-flavored things in the world that's ever resonated with me, and her inclusiveness and fairness is why.
@@ItsAsparageese This is what we call 'relationship goal couple'. Much like the Adam's Family parents in the movies. They help build each other, compromise, and constantly work with one another to make things happen. All relationships are compromise, solid foundations, boundaries, and always finding a solution together even if it seems immovable. Most of those 'Girl Power' movies now a days aren't about women leaning into their femininity and still being strong. It's about 'beating the bad man' now, which.. eh. I like strong men. I like strong women. Legally Blonde 1 and 2 actually are what women should look up to. If she can do it, we can too. :))
I noticed a bit of a continuity error, Elle actually wasn't wearing pink when she met Emmett, it's one of the few times she doesn't, but she's wearing green that day.
I think they were referring to the pictures on the right, on the top is Elle in the green sweater robe thing and he is sitting on the bench. That was the first time they met when she was kicked out of the first class.
@@loud_hailer6240 I guess I left out what the error is, I'm bringing it up because Emmett asks Elle if she knows what he thought when he first saw her, and her answer is "God that woman wears a lot of pink".
Holy crap lol, you're entirely right and I'm impressed at the observation and you connecting those dots even though it's super obvious in my head now that I've read it XD
I actually really enjoyed this flick, even though it's not as great as the original. Still, Reese Witherspoon is her usual charming self, and has solid support from Jennifer Coolidge, Regina King and Sally Fields.
Oh my dog. You're absolutely right. I failed to notice it the entire time when I've watched and rewatched this movie, and watched and rewatched this reaction ... but now suddenly I'm both offended at the movie for there being a distinct lack of Vivian, and offended at myself for failing to notice it sooner!
The Movie Budz "She's just going to befriend you into surrendering." Reminds me of a quote from Abraham Lincoln "The best way to defeat an enemy is to make them your friend."
This is wholesome af. And the power of buyers shouldn't be underestimated! I'm not really all that into actually using makeup myself (not as much as I believe I am lol, I love owning a bit though), but for some reason I had a pretty extensive phase of being really into beauty TH-cam, and over several years the political and commerical impacts of cultural discourse on the beauty industry have been MIND-BLOWING. I mean, we're seeing huge international brands lobby in CHINA of all places against animal testing, because so many international consumers have stood firm on the idea that if your brand tolerates animal testing _anywhere,_ then it's not truly cruelty-free! It's incredibly cool to see what's happened in the makeup and skincare communities even just in the last decade or so, and this movie indisputably played a part in normalizing not only these values but also normalizing feeling good about having the chutzpah to stand firm about them.
Did you notice the pink light disappeared when Elle realised the company didn’t care about her presentation, and how they felt about ‘doing their job’? She gets fired and the pink light of her perfect life living with rose-coloured lenses fades.
@@yippeeflowers Yeah that's not how artistic interpretation and arguments from text work. You don't have to be that snobby about raising a counterpoint for a different angle
Is this as much of a masterpiece as the first movie? Maybe not. But is it equally fun to watch? Yes absolutely. I love that they didn’t go too serious with the sequel they actually did a perfect job
Maybe Elle’s pink light is like Morticia’s in “The Addams Family.” Angelica Houston had separate lighting from everyone else, even in the same scenes. It’s really prominent in “Addams Family Values.”
They are doing a 3rd one, Reese confirmed it on Ellen and Mindy Kalling is helping write the script of 3 right now and is due for a release in May next year
There's already a third, it's called 'Legally Blondes' and is focused on Elle's nieces. So if they're doing another focused on Elle then it will be the 4th in the series.
@@lauxantilles Yeah I've never heard of that one before and I suspect there's a reason lol. Sounds like the Animorphs TV series, or Bad Religion's "Into the Unknown" album ... some things just don't count 😂
While I don’t think it’s as iconic as the first one I still adore this movie. It’s so campy and fun and Elle is such an amazing character. Even though she sometimes tones down her appearance she never sacrifices her femininity or her kindness to reach her goals.
It's true. Natural blondes are a minority. The majority adult blondes you see walking around are dyed. I was born blonde and my hair darkened so much as I got older people don't think my kid pictures are real. Natural redheads are even more rare. Also, "Your dogs are GAY" still makes me laugh. That delivery...🤣
I came to say this too. 🤣 only 2% of adults who are blonde are natural blondes. I don't know the percentage for redheads but they are minority hair colors, as opposed to brown and black hair.
@@LxstinNeverland Redheads are about 1%. The rarity of natural adult blondes is the reason that theory of Riley from Inside Out being adopted is bogus. Just cause both parents are brunettes doesn't prove anything. Either one could've been a blond in their youth.
@@dragonlynx9969 thats true! When I was in biology class, I remember my teacher saying "a blonde an someone with black hair are going to have a brunette child" which is false.. 🤣 my mom is blonde and my dad has black hair and I'm 23 and still a natural blonde. Plus, genes can skip generations. It happens all the time, so it's very possible for two brunettes to have a blonde child. It's also very common for babies to be born with bleach blonde hair and get brown hair as an adult. Just the way it works. 🤔
The greatest about this channel is that you can rewatch a movie with company or even watch new movies you didn't feel like to watching alone. Hugs from Brazil!!!
Besides the iconic Fourth of July quote, the one scene that stuck with me was when the lady said “Your dogs… are gay.” And another lady with her dog ran away, horrified 😂😂😂 Hope you Budz are doing well! 😊❤️
I remember listening to a commentary from I believe the director, the pink light is supposed to represent Elles personal power. when she’s thriving, pink light, when something emotionally knocks her off that, no pink light.
As someone who is currently confined to their house due to health reasons, your videos help bring a smile to my face and make my day a little bit brighter. Thank you, keep doing what you’re doing guys~
I've seen this movie countless times and never consciously noticed the pick light! Then it disappeared when she got fired. These movies are my go-to when I need to feel better or need a reminder to be positive even when everything goes wrong. Thanks for the reaction, it was amazing as always! I love how Stef is just loving every aspect of this movie no matter how extra and Sam is so done but still loves it
Wait for real? Also isn't it fair to say her pink outfit in this movie is based pretty clearly on Jackie Kennedy? Or if you're referring to a different outfit than the one I'm thinking of let me know lol
@@videohistory722 Okay, so it definitely is derived from the Elle look I was thinking of, but that's also in turn inspired by Jackie Onassis, so we're both right. Fun!
Honestly I never watched Legally Blonde 1 or 2 when it came out, since i always dismissed it as a sort of ‚ditzy blond chick flick‘, but I finally watched them after the commentary on the first and I enjoy these movies so much… such positivity without becoming cliche and tooth rotting!
32:46 “It’s lipstick?” “I’m going to trust her on this” “Good point” Just the trust of the expert and the lack of hesitation to course correct really had me smiling!
I’m sure you guys have a line up, but please do ‘The Holiday’ Your commentary would be so hilarious for that film I appreciate this commentary btw, is it as good as the original, no. It’s definitely something that was pushed because of the first ones success, but it’s similar writers and Reese Witherspoon still obviously loves this role. Solid.
I’m so glad someone else likes this movie. I don’t know if you recognize it as you have a lot of fans, but I’m a regular and never regret finding your channel!
@@themoviebud1988 omg I didn’t think you guys would see this, I was totally hungover when I first tried watching so was a little late to the punch here! I love seeing you guys reply!
@@themoviebud1988 okay I swear I’m done after this one… but have you guys considered other social media platforms? I’ve been trying to find a different way to reach you both to let you know just how much you both have done for me the past few months.
The pink outfit was worn the day Kennedy was shot she kept it on the rest of the day appeared on camera with his blood covering it. Can’t understand why this outfit is used in movies. It’s an iconic outfit for other reasons people seem to forget.
Since they couldn't really film in D.C. they shot the office scenes in the Utah state capital, Vivint Arena, and in my hometown of Springfield at the Illinois state capital.
After calling out the magical pink glow in Elle's hair, did you happen to notice that the moment she gets fired, it's GONE? The term 'hopper' is derived from funnel shaped storage bins that contained grain, coal, or animal feed. The movement of the grain as it poured into the storage bin has been likened to 'hopping' or dancing. The United States House of Representatives wrote that the "hopper represents the initial phase of a bill's journey toward refinement, or final passage, much like grain when processed into flour". The hoppers are fed from the top and emptied from the bottom. The term became particularly prevalent within the agrarian society of the 19th and early 20th century United States. Many legislators came from agricultural backgrounds, and analogies were frequently drawn in speeches between the refinement of grain and the progression of bills. The actor playing the politician is Sally Field. Besides "Mrs Doubtfire", she played the mother of "Forest Gump", the wife of "Lincoln", "Norma Rae", "Sybil", and was also in "Punchline", and "Steel Magnolias". Before she moved into film, she starred as the TV series' lead in "Gidget" and "The Flying Nun". Luke Wilson was doing a bad Humphrey Bogart impression; no reason Elle would even know who that celebrity is. "That's a LOT of phones!" What you didn't notice was they were all PRINCESS phones. (Google it.) "Look, those silly girls with blisters on their feet? I was one of them." "She wasn't judging her, she was judging herself." That comment really touched me. Sorry Budz, I happen to love "We Can"; it's an inspiring anthemic song. After our former dumpster fire of a president, "We Can" is a necessary point of hope to get us through trying to repair our government and the ongoing Right Wing crap still going on.
Needed this so bad. I woke up to the news of Vicente Fernandez death (he's a huge Mexican singer, a legend) and I've been crying all morning. Saw that you guys uploaded a video and I pressed play so fucking quick. Y'alls commentary always makes me laugh. I just love these videos so much. Keep doing what y'all do. Sometimes you bring ppl a bit of laughter and joy in a time of sadness and grief. Just... thanks for being you. I've been a subscriber for a few months and whether I've seen the movie yall are commenting to or not, I ALWAYS hit play. Much love to the both of you!
The meanest comment I've ever heard Elle make was in the first movie, when she basically called Vivian Kensington a constipated-looking frigid b*tch. And Viv was really very mean to her first.
You guys should watch The Harder They Fall. It’s a western movie with an all black cast. The acting, comedy, and action are on point. The soundtrack is next level. Regina king is in it and she’s amazing 🤩
Noooo, I am RIGHT at the end of my break so need to go back to work, but I can't wait to watch this tonight! Legally Blonde 2 I used to have on dvd and it was the one I always had on top of the pile for bragging purposes. I wanted everyone to know I owned a copy haha
I actually totally forgot what the sequel was about. Not as great as the original (but that's a given most of the time), but I did enjoy this one a lot too.
I love these commentaries. I can't wait for High School Musical 3. I'd love to see you guys reacting to the Descendants trilogy/series and the Harry Potter franchise.
Legally Blonde 2 was honestly such an enjoyable movie to me, someone who watched the first on too many times. However, I do still think that Legally Blonde the musical did it the best of all the adaptations, that's the hill I will die on
Always loved the message behind this one about animal rights as a huge animal lover. The story may not be as good as the first film but it's still funny and true to the characters. Love it. 💕 Edit: I'm dying at the Rob Halford reference. 😅😂
You guys have no idea how much I love just listening to you. :3 Thanks for being so genuine and being yourself. Please keep doing what you do! Lots of love from the UK ( I'm originally from Nepal tho.) ♥️🌻
watching you guys just love the shit out of these movies has been such a source of joy for me in my recent super low depression. My fourth grade teacher did warm and fuzzies and I still have one that was given to me by a boy who was shot and killed due to gang related activity when he was 19. I kept it at the time because even though he was one of the 'bad kids' that landed in lunch detention with me he was never mean to me he acted out and things but he never once made fun of me or tried to hurt me and so I liked him. I didn't find out till years after it happened that he had died when I just found the warm and fuzzie note he did with my name in graffiti art on it and tried to look him up online. Hearing you guys say warm and fuzzies and see them used in a movie without ridiculing the idea for a second was just a really awesome thing for me to see. being presented with the idea of writing down little compliments for your classmates or coworkers or whatever and just being like " This is great" and moving on is awesome chill movie budz shit and I love that.
But imagine this, 3rd movie she becomes president but there’s a worldwide problem and she calls out to another nations to solve it. One of the countries she calls is Genovia…
you should totally watch the Legally blone Musical! And honestly I can't believe I didn't realize all the little hits from the musical they took from both movies....
the market right now is very much saturated with sequels to things that don't need to happen, but i have been excited for legally blonde 3 as soon as it was announced lmao
Oh, and I should point out, the only other Elle I remember from a movie, is Elle, from the Cinderella Story movie that Ashlee Hewitt is in. By the way guys, there are 12 movies based on the book, A Cinderella Story. I think you've only watched one. I've pointed this out in several comments on several videos and you've yet to watch any of them. I'm restraining the urge to fly my helicopter over your home and drop packages into your backyard with electronic messaging, making this same suggestion. Guys, I am that guy. One day, a hot air balloon will retrieve you from the roof of your building.
36:56 Well an alternate ending to the movie 'Gattaca' stated that Lincoln had Marfan syndrome (which they used to explain his height - Marfan syndrome being a genetic disorder that affects connective tissue) but since then it's been basically proven that that's unlikely. What we do know though (through letters and other recordings made by himself and those who knew him) is that Lincoln suffered from chronic depression for most of his life. Impressive he was able to do so much as be elected when he had that on his shoulders (his friends basically went on a suicide watch for him twice before he was elected0.

Just the trust of the expert and the lack of hesitation to course correct really had me smiling!
I’m sure you guys have a line up, but please do ‘The Holiday’
Your commentary would be so hilarious for that film
I appreciate this commentary btw, is it as good as the original, no. It’s definitely something that was pushed because of the first ones success, but it’s similar writers and Reese Witherspoon still obviously loves this role. Solid.
OMG, after you guys reacted to the first movie I was secretly hoping you would do this. Keep up the good work 🐱
Hope you enjoy it 😊 - Sam
Regina King and Jennifer Coolidge were both in A Cinderella Story the next year in 2004!
Another great movie.
6:13 Octavia Spencer. Another Icon whose movies and TV shows need to be seen.
Ik this has been said but I’m glad you two were able to watch stuff in person!!
Thanks so much 😊 - Sam
"no, don't do that" had me rollling on the floor laughing lol
"Real kindness takes intelligence"
Put that on T-shirt!
I love this movie so much. The scene where Emmett takes the phone call during his class is just so iconic 😍
Btw I think everyone figured out that the Congresswoman Elle met at the salon was in ‘Home Alone 2’. She starred in two iconic sequels.
Funnily enough, if they DID do a Legally Blonde 3, Reese Witherspoon, and consequently Elle Woods, is old enough to be President.
I’m so glad someone else likes this movie. I don’t know if you recognize it as you have a lot of fans, but I’m a regular and never regret finding your channel!
Yeah, I recognise cause you’ve been with us for quite a while now 😊 thanks so much for the love 🙏 - Sam
@@themoviebud1988 omg I didn’t think you guys would see this, I was totally hungover when I first tried watching so was a little late to the punch here! I love seeing you guys reply!
@@bayliegates5319 no worries haha, we try to stay connected 😊 - Sam
@@themoviebud1988 okay I swear I’m done after this one… but have you guys considered other social media platforms? I’ve been trying to find a different way to reach you both to let you know just how much you both have done for me the past few months.
@@bayliegates5319 we’ve had our IG’s at the start of every video for a couple of months now, but it’s also in the top pinned comment 😊 - Sam
You really should watch the stage musical too, it was filmed by MTV so there's a high quality version available here on TH-cam. :)
Bless Stef's reaction to Elle possibly ascending to angel status - 'Wasn't she always?' Yeah she kinda was :)
The pink outfit was worn the day Kennedy was shot she kept it on the rest of the day appeared on camera with his blood covering it. Can’t understand why this outfit is used in movies. It’s an iconic outfit for other reasons people seem to forget.
Since they couldn't really film in D.C. they shot the office scenes in the Utah state capital, Vivint Arena, and in my hometown of Springfield at the Illinois state capital.
You guys are my Elle Woods! The positivity you both exude always makes my day better☺️
After calling out the magical pink glow in Elle's hair, did you happen to notice that the moment she gets fired, it's GONE?
The term 'hopper' is derived from funnel shaped storage bins that contained grain, coal, or animal feed. The movement of the grain as it poured into the storage bin has been likened to 'hopping' or dancing. The United States House of Representatives wrote that the "hopper represents the initial phase of a bill's journey toward refinement, or final passage, much like grain when processed into flour".
The hoppers are fed from the top and emptied from the bottom. The term became particularly prevalent within the agrarian society of the 19th and early 20th century United States. Many legislators came from agricultural backgrounds, and analogies were frequently drawn in speeches between the refinement of grain and the progression of bills.
The actor playing the politician is Sally Field. Besides "Mrs Doubtfire", she played the mother of "Forest Gump", the wife of "Lincoln", "Norma Rae", "Sybil", and was also in "Punchline", and "Steel Magnolias". Before she moved into film, she starred as the TV series' lead in "Gidget" and "The Flying Nun".
Luke Wilson was doing a bad Humphrey Bogart impression; no reason Elle would even know who that celebrity is.
"That's a LOT of phones!"
What you didn't notice was they were all PRINCESS phones. (Google it.)
"Look, those silly girls with blisters on their feet? I was one of them."
"She wasn't judging her, she was judging herself." That comment really touched me.
Sorry Budz, I happen to love "We Can"; it's an inspiring anthemic song. After our former dumpster fire of a president, "We Can" is a necessary point of hope to get us through trying to repair our government and the ongoing Right Wing crap still going on.
Nice catch about the pink highlights!
“Land of the free…gift with purchase.”
ELLE WOODS DROPPING TRUTH BOMBS!
Such an underrated sequel. The magic of the first film... and it's done so well.
Needed this so bad. I woke up to the news of Vicente Fernandez death (he's a huge Mexican singer, a legend) and I've been crying all morning. Saw that you guys uploaded a video and I pressed play so fucking quick. Y'alls commentary always makes me laugh. I just love these videos so much. Keep doing what y'all do. Sometimes you bring ppl a bit of laughter and joy in a time of sadness and grief. Just... thanks for being you. I've been a subscriber for a few months and whether I've seen the movie yall are commenting to or not, I ALWAYS hit play. Much love to the both of you!
"President Blonde" y'all... "Legally Blonde 3: Commander in Chic" is RIGHT there
That key swallower line is a staple for me lmao I use it any time there's a 'weird thing i/a friend are not allowed to do'
Elle’s first day at the Capitol in pink is a Mood. One day, I want to recreate it 😂
Omg omg omg!!! I’ve been watching the first commentary waiting for this one to come out!! Thank you guys 💕💕
No worries 😊 - Sam
The meanest comment I've ever heard Elle make was in the first movie, when she basically called Vivian Kensington a constipated-looking frigid b*tch. And Viv was really very mean to her first.
‘The Movie Budz’ reacting to another Regina King masterpiece! 👏🏽
Working our way through the list 👍 - Sam
Just want to point out. Victoria didn’t do the right thing at the end when she was the final signature. Grace was still blackmailing her lol
You guys should watch The Harder They Fall. It’s a western movie with an all black cast. The acting, comedy, and action are on point. The soundtrack is next level. Regina king is in it and she’s amazing 🤩
Noooo, I am RIGHT at the end of my break so need to go back to work, but I can't wait to watch this tonight! Legally Blonde 2 I used to have on dvd and it was the one I always had on top of the pile for bragging purposes. I wanted everyone to know I owned a copy haha
I actually totally forgot what the sequel was about. Not as great as the original (but that's a given most of the time), but I did enjoy this one a lot too.
I'm gonna start quoting: "Just get on your skateboard, and fail to skate it back home."
I love these commentaries. I can't wait for High School Musical 3. I'd love to see you guys reacting to the Descendants trilogy/series and the Harry Potter franchise.
these videos always brighten my mood, keep it up guys!!!
"where's the pink light coming from?" straight from God, of course 😌😌
Man. Washington is just as ruthless as it was in the early 2000s.
Some things never change.
Omg I’ve watched this movie 100x and never noticed the pink stage lighting!! 🤣🤣🤣
Legally Blonde 2 was honestly such an enjoyable movie to me, someone who watched the first on too many times.
However, I do still think that Legally Blonde the musical did it the best of all the adaptations, that's the hill I will die on
Always loved the message behind this one about animal rights as a huge animal lover. The story may not be as good as the first film but it's still funny and true to the characters. Love it. 💕
Edit: I'm dying at the Rob Halford reference. 😅😂
I’m so happy you reacted to this!!! Completely forgot about this sequel! And you guys are right it’s criminally underrated!!!!!!!
You guys have no idea how much I love just listening to you. :3
Thanks for being so genuine and being yourself. Please keep doing what you do!
Lots of love from the UK ( I'm originally from Nepal tho.) ♥️🌻
I’ve missed you guys! Welcome back and thank you for bringing the fun and smiles!
watching you guys just love the shit out of these movies has been such a source of joy for me in my recent super low depression. My fourth grade teacher did warm and fuzzies and I still have one that was given to me by a boy who was shot and killed due to gang related activity when he was 19. I kept it at the time because even though he was one of the 'bad kids' that landed in lunch detention with me he was never mean to me he acted out and things but he never once made fun of me or tried to hurt me and so I liked him. I didn't find out till years after it happened that he had died when I just found the warm and fuzzie note he did with my name in graffiti art on it and tried to look him up online. Hearing you guys say warm and fuzzies and see them used in a movie without ridiculing the idea for a second was just a really awesome thing for me to see. being presented with the idea of writing down little compliments for your classmates or coworkers or whatever and just being like " This is great" and moving on is awesome chill movie budz shit and I love that.
“Get on your skateboard and fail to skate it back home” 😂
I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO REACT TO THIS MOVIE! THANK YOU! There was literally NO commentary reactions to the sequel on yt. Truly underrated.
“I love it, but it’s ridiculous.” How I feel about this entire wonderfully camp movie. Lol
But imagine this, 3rd movie she becomes president but there’s a worldwide problem and she calls out to another nations to solve it. One of the countries she calls is Genovia…
Dude, I’d watch that in a heartbeat
you should totally watch the Legally blone Musical! And honestly I can't believe I didn't realize all the little hits from the musical they took from both movies....
Regina King also starred in Miss Congeniality 2. Now you have no excuses 😜
I love that this react channel is just an Elle Woods stan account now. We love our progressive and classy queen!
Don't mind me, I just found your channel and currently binge watching. You guys are amazingly funny. Much love, from Minnesota,US
Sally Field is so funny. Underrated comedy genius 👏🏽
they missed the part where she had the pink spotlight on her until she got fired
the market right now is very much saturated with sequels to things that don't need to happen, but i have been excited for legally blonde 3 as soon as it was announced lmao
52:48 It’s called a ‘Filibuster’ where you use your speech to challenge existing procedures. It’s an American thing.
Arguably it's unconstitutional.
@@MissCaraMint Yes.
Elle Woods calling Abraham Lincoln’s Top Hat “brave”. I CAN’T -- 😂
Love yall's enthusiasm for this movie 😂😂 at 42:00 especially
Oh my God that door guy was in the Big Bang Theory.... He always sounds effortlessly sarcastic
Thanks for doing this, is my birthday and I needed something to cheer me up and distract me, I love your commentary.
Emmett be setting my standards higher 😂💕
Same here. I love how healthy their relationship is.
This is the earliest I’ve been! I found you guys recently and am working my way through your videos. Big fan 😊
One of the better sequels that could ever be made. Still suggesting Miss Congeniality 2!!
Oh, and I should point out, the only other Elle I remember from a movie, is Elle, from the Cinderella Story movie that Ashlee Hewitt is in. By the way guys, there are 12 movies based on the book, A Cinderella Story. I think you've only watched one. I've pointed this out in several comments on several videos and you've yet to watch any of them. I'm restraining the urge to fly my helicopter over your home and drop packages into your backyard with electronic messaging, making this same suggestion. Guys, I am that guy. One day, a hot air balloon will retrieve you from the roof of your building.
They made a 3rd about twin blondes and Ell's their role model. It's called Legally Blonds.
The twins are Elle’s cousins and their dogs are related to Bruiser too. Awful movie tho haha. Deffo one to skip.
49:58 omg I never got that before, Paulette’s last name is Parcelle cause of the UPS man??? 😭😭😭
seeing a new video from the movie budz is one of the best feelings, you guys never miss!
Thanks for uploading ! Always look forward to watching a movie with you guys! 🙏
36:56 Well an alternate ending to the movie 'Gattaca' stated that Lincoln had Marfan syndrome (which they used to explain his height - Marfan syndrome being a genetic disorder that affects connective tissue) but since then it's been basically proven that that's unlikely. What we do know though (through letters and other recordings made by himself and those who knew him) is that Lincoln suffered from chronic depression for most of his life. Impressive he was able to do so much as be elected when he had that on his shoulders (his friends basically went on a suicide watch for him twice before he was elected0.
I didn't even notice that pink light til y'all mentioned even though it's not like it's really hidden. Good job me.
Bel Air and Beverly Hills are separate neighborhoods but they are in West LA.
