    For those of you concerned about spoilers, please don't worry we have finished filming all of the Harry Potter films. This video required minimal editing and I didn't have anything else ready so I decided to post it as a fun early bonus, but I of course would never compromise our reaction to a series/ movie franchise by watching a parody version first. Thanks!

    1:54:13 so what happened with that weird cut is that the scene was over and as a joke, they decided to make it seem like draco is such an insignificant person in the world of the musical that he wasn't able to do a villain song. Which is why the scene change music played over the opening of the "song" draco was singing.
    Fun fact about that scene, the "you have to be my slave for a whole day" bit was improvised that performance and those were the actors' genuine reactions to thay being thrown in, which makes all the following discussion better lol

    If you are interested in continuing the Starkid musicals here is a list of all major works from then in release order (please copy the list and notify me when read, since YT likes to make this post disappear and I don't want to repost if you already have seen it:
    1. A Very Potter Musical - Harry Potter Parody Part 1
    2. Me And My Dick - More "adult" play which includes very sexual themes, only watch if you are ok talking about this topic, but then it is a lot of fun.
    3. A Very Potter Sequel - Harry Potter Parody Part 2
    4. Starship - First time with mic, one of my favorites, would recommend to only watch once you know the core actors of starkid and can recognize them. Plays on an alien planet, don't want to spoil anything more.
    5. Holy Musical B@tman! - Batman parody, first appearance of Jeff Blim (as the villain) who becomes a very famous and importent member of the crew.
    6. A Very Potter Senior Year - Harry Potter Parody Part 3, was created in a very short time, due to time constraints Darren Chriss (Harry Potter) had only 2 Days to prepare, therefore almost all cast members are having their scripts on hand. Also has a very special guest star which I will not reveal (and hope nobody else does it). Also unfortunately Bonnie Grueson did not manage to take the role of Hermione Granger again and is recasted by Meredith Stepien.
    7. Twisted (The Untold Story Of A Royal Vizier) - Aladdin Parody, highly recommend watching Aladdin (Disney 1992) a short time before watching Twisted, also knowledge of other Disney Animated Movies and the history of the Disney & Pixars collaboration is helpful but not required.
    8.1 ANI (A Parody) - Star Wars Parody, the band sings the songs so that the actors can dance with the songs. I would recommend knowing Star Wars Episode 1-6. Star Wars knowledge beyond that (about the various books and comics) will help in understanding many of the jokes, but are not necessary. Was performed every other day instead of The Trail To Oregon!
    8.2 The Trail To Oregon! - Parody of the video game The Oregon Trail (1985), one of my favorites. You do not need to know the game but some knowledge about it improves it. Was performed every other day instead of ANI.
    9. Firebringer - Story is placed in the Stone Age, the cast is almost entirely female (with the first female main protagonist of Starkid) which gives it a fresh spin.
    10. The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals - Part 1 of the Hatchetfield Series, my absolute favorite, is Starkids first try on the Horror genre and started a new series which is as today still not completed
    11. Black Friday - Part 2 of the Hatchetfield Series, please see The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals before this.
    12. Nerdy Prudes Must Die - Part 3 of the Hatchetfield Series, please see The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals and Black Friday (and if possible Nightmare Time 1 & 2 (see below)) before this.
    13. Cinderella’s Castle - Next Musical, not yet released
    Also worthwhile mentioning:
    Spies are Forever - Made by some of Starkids crewmembers (including Joey Richter (Ron) and Brian Rosenthal (Quirrel)) forming the Tin Can Bros and additionally starring Lauren Lopez (Draco) and Joseph Walker (Voldemort) is a great story set in the Spy Genre with amazing set quality and entertainment that is on the same level as the best Starkid shows
    Nightmare Time - Multiple short stories set in the Hatchettfield Series, read by multiple members of starkid and live music
    Nightmare Time 2 - Season two of Nightmare Time
    VHS Christmas Carol - Short Musical about the Christmas Carol

      don't forget about the short film 'Working Boys' ( only watch after seeing AT LEAST the Hatchetfield trilogy ), also that a fact about the Nightmare Time seasons 1 & 2 were filmed during quarantine/lockdown, so its all over video call/discord- but the stories still come across well and you still get immersed.

      2. The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals

      This is an excellent list!! Just one thing though, in a very Potter senior year the entire cast had only 2 days to prepare, Darren Criss only had 2 hours lol the reason the entire cast had their scripts is because it was meant to be a stage reading, not a full out musical. The Langs only decided to add costumes and turn it into something more during those 2 half days of rehearsal they got previous to the panel and Darren was only made aware of this when he got to the convention about 2 hours before the panel begun!

    at this time they were mfa theater students in Ann Arbor. This wasn't even an assignment, they just whipped this up for themselves. It's honestly a stroke of luck they recorded it at all. I think they only performed it twice.
    some of the laughs and jokes are probably very specific to their own friend group, e.g. the laughs that occur when dumbledore enters are probably cuz everyone just knows the guy (and also the audience is probably a little drunk.) One of the writer/directors was a known fan of High School Musical, so queue the zefron poster. Harry is less Harry and more a caricature of Darren Criss himself. The song Ginny sings to the guitar is actually a recycled song from another show they wrote, which the audience would've recognized and is likely why they laugh.
    Plus some of the jokes are more specific to fannon at this time, like the joke that draco is secretly in doth-protest-too-much love with hermione. Or Dumbledore's homosexually-motivated blind faith in Snape, bc jkr had officially revealed Dumbledore was gay only the year before.
    loved this reaction! so hoping you do the next two HP musicals!

    They started off doing these shows while in or just shortly after leaving University... I think they originally posted this on youtube because they wanted a way to have a record of the show for the cast and their families and maybe they decided burning DVDs was too difficult or something lol... Then it gained a fair amount of popularity... Which lead to more shows ^_^;;
    The quality gets a fair bit better over time... They have better recordings, better and more consistent costumes, lighting, makeup and so on... Still relatively small scale most of the time, but you know? I think their writing is mostly better too... Maybe the music too, although it feels weird to say that when some of this early stuff are potentially still among my favourites... Even if you don't react to them, I hope you watch more... Although I'd love reactions too lol. It was cool watching the other guys on the old channel watching them too.

    So happy you reacted to this show and I hope you'll watch the other two Potter related musicals, and maybe other original musicals they made.
    So, you guys need to know a little bit of history about them: this show is from 2009 and the whole group was to about to graduate from Uni (Michigan University) and actually wanted to share what they did FOR FUN with each other. They didn't expect the whole frenzy over the show and their group.
    They have a huge fanbase now who follow them (me included).
    Today, 15 years later, some of them are reknown actors like Darren Criss (who plays Harry) who was cast in the show GLEE, or in American Crime Story, or even the bass player at the back, Carlos Valdes, who played Cisco Ramon in the TV show "Flash".
    Fun Fact: the guy who plays Ron Weasley (Joey Richter) and the girl who plays Draco (Lauren Lopez) got married very recently.
    They are all still friends and have shows regularly together. Team Starkid has made 11 musicals since then and some of the original cast are still working on these shows.

    Are you open to watching more musicals? Starkid parodies are great, but their original musicals are *cheff kiss*. Some people have suggested the Hatchetfield Trilogy (The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Black Friday and Nerdy Prudes Must Die), I highly recommended to. They are "horror", but mainly comedy (and great songs). For me, the strongest point of that trilogy is the hability of the team to balance really sad/emotional moments with the comedy of all it. Absolutely brilliant.

And if you like that one, they have 2 more horror-adjacent musicals, as well as some awesome parodies of classic stories. You’ll see some familiar faces from AVPM who are still with the company. And of course there’s A Very Potter Sequel. All free on UA-cam :)

    Team Starkid started as a bunch of friends at the University of Michigan in 2008, and have grown into a fully fledged production company.
    I am a professional musical theater actress, and Starkid shows are some of my favorites ever to have existed. I love them more than most Broadway shows, tbh.
    Please continue on the Starkid journey, you will not be disappointed!!!

    • @KitsyX
      @KitsyX 2 місяці тому +1

      Based on certain reactions they had here, I think they had seen the rest of the movies first... Though I'm not 100% sure... I suspect this potentially came to youtube first at least partly because they didn't need to edit it for copyright reasons, so it's easier... I don't know if Starkid claim revenue on it or not, because assumedly they aren't allowed to make money from it... Although I'm not sure... But typically it at least isn't likely to be blocked or hit with a strike... Relatively safe and easy content, whether you get money from it or not.

    Someone already pointed out that a lot of the jokes are inside jokes with the friend group or other pop culture references.

I know you guys probably have already gotten many of these requests but I'd like to recommend The Guy Who Didn't Like Musicals, Twisted, and/or The Trail to Oregon! Though honestly all of their musicals are great.
    Also some fun facts! The actor that plays Ron would eat during rehearsals so it turned into the joke that Ron was always eating on stage. The Starkid team had a budget of $100 to make the musical and I believe it's said that most of that money went into buying the giant Hershey bar that Ron eats!

      They might want something a bit more lighthearted after the last one… A little bit of a break… Technically I think they’ve seen all the important details that correspond to this musical, so it’s not that bad a choice… Ah well maybe there’s one kinda spoiler >_>;; Oh well…
      I think he was also involved with another channel at first and they also watched this (I don’t think he watched with them, but he was on the channel at times) and maybe they suggested it?
      Another possibility is that they wanted something they didn’t have to edit much, to have a little bit of a break…
      I think it’s better if they had got through all the main movies first, but it’s certainly not the end of the world.

      I was never interested in Harry Potter until I watched these musicals. I watched Starkid's other musical before The Harry Potter Musicals. I read the Harry Potter books after watching the musicals. The musicals are what made me interested in reading the books and then watching the movies. So I do not think you need to read the books or watch the movies befor watching the musicals.
