3:39 "I feel like this movie would have been easier is Snow White Herself was CG" I agree! Actually, while we are at it why not just make everything 2D animated!

[RemzPTB]

You guys should have an end of year visual effect award show - from all of the reacted videos specifically to that year.

Awards can be like “the most jankiest cgi of 2024”, “the most visually stunning cgi of 2024”, etc.

That’s something I’d watch! 😊

I do not understand Disney's current obsession with live action remakes of classic animated films. Why live action? Why not go the Pixar route and do a cgi animated remake if they just have to do a reboot? You lose a lot of the charm and go into this creepy uncanny-valley when switching from stylized animation to live action.

They are setting themselves up for failure because even if the cgi is perfect the cartoony designs and photo realistic ones clash.

[Kalepsis]

Speaking of excellent water shots, have you guys ever looked at a penguin movie called Surf's Up? Those water shots had me gawking.

[EthelJung-jw]

The uncanny valley was deeeep. But I wonder if it will be like Battle Angel Alita. Where my mind just shifted after 5 minutes and it was fine. Since it was a robot, not a human.

[AbbyBazil]

for the Snow White portion, did you guys notice the sun coming through 3 sides of the cabin? It's like there's 3 different suns, each shining through one side of the cabin. Weird, weird

[Beautiful-ModelBarbara-Hut-sj]

React to more of the Pirates of the Caribbean, or at the very least the 5th one where they part the sea.

[KironX]

“I feel like this movie would have been easier if Snow White herself was full cg” yeah it’s crazy almost like the movie should be animated or something lol

[Slanderbot]

All controversy aside, the whole snow white live action concept is creatively bankrupt. It's not utilizing the strengths of the medium of live action. They are just forcing in a live actor b/c they want to sell to ppl who prefer live action. It's insulting to the medium, to the source material, and to those who cherish the story itself.

[inigo]

San Andreas instead of 2012 is crazy, lol

[MrKaito]

Yooo!!
The movie "2012" also has a tsunami scene

[themydnighthour]

Why do we need a new Snow White movie?

[TriPBOOMER]

How did you guy talk about Tsunami in films without even a mention of 2012's ''The Impossible'' it is where my mind goes when I think Tsunami in films

[adankseasonads]

There is this shot in the 1983 movie Twilight Zone. A kid hits the back of a moving car on a bike. I watched it 30 times trying to figure out how they did it. Please check it out!!

[LucasMagriniRigo]

How about the tsunami from The Impossible 2012?

[BlueFlash]

Can you react to "His Dark Materials" how in season 2 rifts to other worlds are displayed?

Can you compare it to the (weak and unpolished) movie with a great cast but a terrible implementation

[ironiccookies]

For Snow White, it's ironic how the producers wanted to make up their own story and changed the dwarves into something else and also talked about inclusivity and whatever. Then they get backlashed for it, even Peter Dinklage the actor who portrays Tyrion in Game of Thrones called out Disney. After that backlash they replaced whatever they were originally go to do with CG dwarves instead of casting real dwarf actors. I dont know how much more hypocrisy you can get with it. And with all these controversies surrounding the film, it's going to be review bombed on release

[The_Orgin]

Please do react to "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.". Lots of robots, spaceships, time travel, gravitonium, Inhumans and of course more importantly Ghost Rider, Lola etc.
It's got quite some stuff to get its own episode.

[moegeemoe]

... are y'all really thinking that you can use the simpson's theme song and and image from the show to promote a product? Where is Jake!

[ProfessorChops]

Snow Brown and the 7 men that she forced to clean their house while she watched. It’s a bit longer and not quite as catchy but it makes more sense.
