Croods 2 slaying gender norms for 7 minutes straight

I really love this movie lol I kept watching it over and over until I realized that it's literally defying gender norms left and right. No wonder I like it.
I also love the music in it! Go listen to "Feel the Thunder" by HAIM and "I Think I Love You" by Tenacious D! Both are such good songs near the end :):)

Song I used in this video:
Neopolitan (Aircheck) from Animal Crossing New Horizons

I want to watch this movie so bad but I can't. I don't know where I can :(

I liked how Eep's father wasn't sad about her daughter leaving WITH a boy like a lot of portray the fathers, but he was being sad about his baby leaving 😭

If I had a nickel for every time Ryan Reynolds played as a character named “Guy”, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird it happened twice

[koraeliu]

ive always loved how in the end of this movie, eep isnt portrayed as a dramatic teenaged girl, guy realizes he was wrong and apologizes

[dinosaursaregreen]

I also love how eep still thinks and does normal teenage girl things, and is not a “I’m noT likE othEr giRls”. She’s just her own person, she’s, eep

[Crwned_Crow]

I’m so glad they didn’t make a jealously thing out of the two girls. Love that they became best friends instead!

This is the resume that I needed to confirm that I'm a faaan of The Croods.

[carolinpurayidom]

I recongnised the girl not being jealous and Oh my gosh I remember holding my breath but then being pleasantly surprised when they were really amicable its so refreshing

[ichiban]

Finding out grug was Nicolas Cage, then Emma Stone as Eep, THEN RYAN REYNOLDS AS GUY???? WHAT 😭

[Lady_ETHNE]

0:53 I also love that they didn't through in a stupid love triangle. It would have ruined the story for me.

I like how Guy in the first movie isn't shamed for being much physically weaker and not a fighter. Instead he uses his smarts to help the others and in most cases that ends up being the solution to the situation instead of using brut force. Its refreshing to see a physically strong girl with a weak but very smart guy who both have their advantages and disadvantages.

The way i didn't even notice all of this gender stereotypes because the movie was so good and the plot too this is how you do it

[i_will_not_elaborate]

I'm so glad that they didn't do the "irrational girl falls in love with a douche" cliché.

I also like how even though the men are damsels, they aren't stupid either which is a mistake most people make.
Damsel ≠ Dumb@$$

[kutekittie]

You pointing it out made me appreciate the movie even more.

[daddy_chahungas]

Eep and Guy are literal Girlboss and Malewife in a nutshell

[maem]

“Did you hit him”
“No I thought about it”
That was actually pretty funny

[pareopudding]

i was genuinely so happy that dawn and eep were friends and they didn’t go for that two girls fighting over a guy thing

[Agames-kkdk]

The ending when Eep said we were moving out and grug cried EVEN tho it was right beside their house just made the movie 10x better-

[scootergirl]

I’m glad they didn’t fall into the “couple established in first movie becomes almost torn apart by jealousy from new character” trope a lot of sequels love to do

[a.r.]

I love how the Better Mom in the second movie was a mirror image of Grug from the first movie. She was the most upset about "new" things and even said that she didn't like the Crood Family giving her daughter "ideas" about leaving the safety of the walls. Guy was the one giving Eep new ideas and now Eep is the one giving new ideas to Dawn.
