As someone from Japan, the most jarring thing for me in the scene where Colin Firth's character is in Tokyo was when one of the Japanese guys in the meeting pulls up a picture of his daughter on his laptop (I can't remember how the scene went honestly lol) and it's a picture of Yokozawa Natsuko who is a famous comedian in Japan lol it took me out of the movie it was so jarring like WHAT are you doing here girl!!!! lmao
I guess the equivalent to this would be like .... imagine watching a Japanese musical movie and you randomly see like ... Bo Burnham in one throwaway scene. lmao
The horror is not from the birth itself, it's from birthing in a dusty decrepit house with seemingly no running water and splinters waiting for you at any corner, with your only lifeline being the weird horse lady who... what was she doing with that steaming hot water, anyway? No pain killers, no disinfectants, no tools, nothing 😭
I just realised that Cher never actually mentions that her DAUGHTER is DEAD? Like you’d think she’d maybe mention it to Sophie and say ‘hey I’m sorry your mother (my actual daughter) died offscreen and I wasn’t there’… hello??
Did Cher even go to her own daughters funeral?? because the end of the movie makes it seem like she never shows up to ANYTHING and Donna died presumably not that long ago like a year or something so???
Usually in films with a three women friendship group, it’s hard to believe that without the lead the other two would EVER be friends because their personalities are so opposed. I loooove that Mamma Mia makes everyone love each other equally!
the one thing that makes me sad about mamma mia 2 is that they didn’t get back sophie’s two friends from the first movie. like they were her dynamos and it’s kind of sad that she doesn’t really have friends in the sequel lol
OH I JUST REMEMBERED the scene where bill’s twin brother is pretending to be him at some random event so bill can go to the island?? and it’s stellan skarsgard in a fat suit i believe?? absolutely wild stuff
3 mamma mia shots that have permanently burrowed in my brain: In the credits when the dads grab a beer and cross their legs in sync while Señor Cienfuegos joins in but just gives up mid cross?? In Angel Eyes when the camera pushes in on Sophie while everyone is singing intensely at her it’s so anxiety inducing? But then Christine Baranski’s immediate transition into her active listening face is so good. My fav is in the first movie when Julie Walters is about to sing take a chance on me and the triple combo power move of her shattering her glass against an innocent lantern, pointing violently at stellan skarsgard, and the zoom in on his panicked face takes me out every time.
God these are all so good, 3 is definitely one for me too. Walter's is just iconic. Another 2 that always make me cry laugh: - Dance party at the end of 2, where Harry REFUSES to look at his younger self and stares at the ground in deep shame while young him sings and dances - Another Harry dancing one actually but in 1st movie near the end when the fountain bursts open and they're all sprayed with water. The main couple get their romantic kiss, the camera zooms in, and Harry is in the background, shirtless, photoboming the entire kiss as he gyrates wetly. It's so distracting and so fucking funny.
I can't believe you didn't even mention that Señor Cienfuegos' brother is The Most Interesting Man In The World, and Tanya totally bags him at the end 😂
The most unbelievable aspect for me is that none of the three girlies have changed their hairstyle since the 70s. Or they did at some point, but decided to recreate the hairstyles they had in their mid-twenties? Idek
That’s peak Scandinavian boomer fantasy, as well as that of old white women everywhere - beautiful southern European vistas… for them to exist in. Just them. Yknow, pretending the locals don’t exist.
I love that there's a JoJo's Bizarre Adventure poster in the establishing Tokyo shot. Despite being VERY different from each other, they also perfectly compliment each other in their high energy and absurdity. Mamma Mia is the bride to JoJo's husbando.
I simply cannot see that scene of Donna giving birth without crying, even those little clips that were included here had me getting emotional😭 I remember when my mum and I watched it together she cried and said it reminded her of when she gave birth to me, being a single parent and having to do a lot of things on her own. Honestly a memory I’ll treasure forever
Oh yeah, my mom also cried during that scene. But it’s kinda beautiful because I went to see the movie with her and my sisters, so we were deffo feeling the whole mother/daughter cycle vibes. Also, Donna’s solo near the end? She also cried there. It’s a wonderful movie!
YES!!! the theme of mother daughter relationships and the deep love and pain there was done INCREDIBLY in both movies. thank u sm for giving it the love it deserves
You didn't even mention they're doing the "SUPER TROOPER" choreography from the first film during "I've Been Waiting for You." Even this beautiful, hearfelt song has a touch of the absurd!
Yes! The whole I've Been Waiting For You scene was overwhelmingly emotional for me. I think it's because you have Sophie singing about how she's been waiting for her child and how much she's gonna love them, while you see Donna (who we know turns out to do JUST THAT and is also DEAD because GOD WHY) literally giving birth to her. It really epitomizes the whole generational/parental theme while tugging at your heartstrings with an emotional rendition of a beautiful Abba song that I certainly hadn't heard before.
The one thing about Mamma Mia 2 I will never forgive is that literally every character in the movie is with someone (even Tanya gets Sr. Cienfuegos hot brother) EXCEPT Colin Firth, the gay character, when he had a blink and you miss it love interest in the last movie and was flirting with the Greek official in this one. Why does every other character get love except the gay one?!?
Depressingly because if there was a gay romance (even a teeny side one) some of the generation these films are aimed at would suddenly view it as 'political' and spurn it.
@@ellaisplottingbut if there’s any film that could easily get away with it, it’s absolutely a sequel of a movie based on a musical based on the music of Eurovision winners
Tanya also didn't get a partner, didn't she? I mean she had this great scene in teh first movie with "does your mother know" but no real partner. Or did I just forget anything?
the only thing that annoyed me about the sequel is that we saw how the fathers looked when they met donna in the original, but they didnt stick to that in the sequel
The Greek Official is played by Omid Djalili who's well known in Britain. It's a similar kind of gag to when, in Paddington 2, Ben Miller mentions something about his RAF days, which is a reference to his sketch in the Armstrong and Miller show with the roadman RAF pilots. He's kind of just funny by being there, because he's a well known funnyman.
i am So glad you brought up the apollonia scene bc it’s one of my favorite cinematic moments ever. so much so that i picked saint apollonia as my saint for confirmation. i love explaining that choice to people and theatrically telling them about the silly little fisherman
MM3 is in the works apparently and my friends and I have decided it should be Tanya and Rosie telling Sophie’s kids how they met Donna and how their band started
Just watched this movie and the most heartwarming part of it was getting to know Sophie's namesake Sofia! She was such a delight in every scene she was in and it was just so sweet to meet her. I feel like these films really get female relationships in a way most films don't and it makes them utterly darling as a result
The Mama Mia continuity is headache inducing. I tried to explain some things in my head but some things just make no sense. Sopies age is the worst. She was 20 in 2008 but her mom met the guys in the 70s. Makes your head explode 🤯
Donna’s mother being dead in the first movie and suddenly alive in the sequel threw me so off 😭 Love Cher tho, and the continuity errors are worth it for the masterpiece we got
both your orginal MMHWGA video and this one fill me with a sense of delight akin to biting into the ripest strawberry of all time (huge earth shattering compliment i fucking love strawberries)
Boruto advertisement was not on my bingo card for mamma mia 2 but tbh it's not even close to being the most unhinged feverdream moment in this... Exquisite work of whatever the hell
i personally adore both mamma mia films and the birth montage in the second made me have a hysterical breakdown because it just felt so... it was an interesting choice. but my gripe with here we go again? is that they didn't dress the young versions of the dads up as they were pictured in the first movie.
One thing I’m happy you mentioned is how the movie puts a focus on mother daughter relationships! I was a toddler when the first movie came out and grew up watching it with my mom, and when the second one came out we went the day of to watch it together, and it’s something I can not stress enough is one of the highlights of my childhood, and just how much my mom means to me.
I enjoyed this movie much more than I thought I should, but one thing I reacted on is how young Bill, Sam and Harry look nothing like they did in pictures or, like the vision Donna has when she sees them for the first time in the first movie, different clothing, the eye tattoos on Bill's knees, Sam's mustache and things like that. Bill looks nothing like a hippie
fr i think the absurdity of this film is why i adore it and my mum hated it lol... also i'd say that the greek official guy is Like That because he's played by Omid Djalili and that's just what he's Like lol (fun fact, i actually saw him play fagin in a west end production of oliver! when i was younger which isn't relevant to this video but i just thought i'd share it lol)
i swear when i watched this movie i was so confused because in my memory there is a scene where they look at old photos and one of the dads is like a grunge rockstar and then that wasnt like that in this movie but idk maybe i dreamt this
I haven’t thought twice about MM, HWGA. So the level of excited relief I felt to see you had another video on it after finishing the first is confusing. This is delightful.
Omid Djalili is the greek official. I was cleaning up the film after a showing at the theater i worked at. Immediately noticed the singing blooper at the end and was like "That is the dude who runs head first into a wall after having a flesh eating scarab burrow in his head." It was in the 1999 mummy movie. Had not seen him in almost 20 years. Good to have seen him still getting work. Well his imdb is pretty prolific.
I think one of the silliest things in the movie is that instead of one abba member in the movie this time there are two. Bjorn is in the graduation scene where they do this really dramatic zoom in on his face before cjtting back to the rest of the scene, (Also when donna and the dynamos give each of their teachers a kiss on the cheek, young tanya gets bjorn but its out of frame so i have no idea if she actually kissed famous abba song writer bjorn on the cheek or if she didn't but... And then obviously benny playing the piano in the iconic waterloo scene The reason i think this is so silly is because I like to imagine a team of writers thinking because this is the second movie we should get two abba memebers implying that if there is a forth movie all the memebers will reunite again just for mamma mia. Anyway this video was great as always i found my self gigling and smiling from ear to ear throughout
In the first movie, Björn also makes a cameo. In the Waterloo finale, he was one of the Greek gods, the one holding the harp and he breaks out into a really wide grin there!
On the greek official, the actor Omid Djalili is super well known in the UK and as a brit it just felt like a fun like omg it's him!! moment for me, but don't know if that was the intention but just my thought 🤔
I saw this immediately after your mamma mia video and I was SO ready to binge all of your videos only to discover you only have 5. I still binged all of them but it was a lot less than I prepared for.
the thing about female horniness is so true, but little 20 year old not-quite-realised-i-was-asexual-yet me in the theatre watching this movie was so caught off guard by "be still my beating vagina" that me and my friend lost our collective shit. Love it, 10/10
The Greek official is played by Omid Djalili he's a big name in the UK and got his episode of life stories and in that interview, he confirmed that he's forced the guy had a crush on Colin's character
Im here for literally any content you decide to make because you are so well spoken/ entertaining, but a mamma Mia 1 video sometime in the future would be FIRE ‼️‼️ anyhow time to rewatch the first video again great work 😈
I think you'd really kill a video in the style of your mamma Mia video but about the Bridget Jones movies, especially Bridget Jones baby, that movie is nuts
ok you need to understand, I just watched this movie as a hey I need something fun to watch and now I AM OBSESSED. pleeeease talk more about this movie
I suspect Mamma Mia 2’s writer’s creative process was something along the lines of listing a bunch of concepts they thought would be funny or interesting and then compiling them into a screenplay and as someone who has that exact creative process I just have to say solidarity 🤘
If we go by the play, it's Bill. There's a scene from the first movie (I think it was deleted) in which "The Name of the Game" plays and Sophie and Bill talk about it.
Loved both of your videos and & both movies. But the thing that bothered me the most is the first movie is all about Donna wanting Sophie to get off the island and follow her own dreams, but the second movie is about Sophie fulfilling her mother's dream. And it's clearly out of guilt. As a mom, I hate that. Although it's not clear to me how much time elapsed between the two movies, so I hope Sophie got to go to art school between them.
The kiosk thing has always confused me (all 5 times I've watched the movie). Why is there a passport checkpoint between Greek mainland and Greek islands?? Or is the mainland supposed to be Turkey? Is it just ID control?
@@beaujagr I don't think I've ever encountered a checkpoint but it has been a while since I've been so I could be misremembering! It does make sense honestly.
Also also we see what the 3 boys looked like when Donna met them because we see the photos, why are the boys we meet when they are young so dramatically different? I get so annoyed by this hahh
As someone from Japan, the most jarring thing for me in the scene where Colin Firth's character is in Tokyo was when one of the Japanese guys in the meeting pulls up a picture of his daughter on his laptop (I can't remember how the scene went honestly lol) and it's a picture of Yokozawa Natsuko who is a famous comedian in Japan lol it took me out of the movie it was so jarring like WHAT are you doing here girl!!!! lmao

Well, she is supposed to be self-absorbed.
Did Cher even go to her own daughters funeral?? because the end of the movie makes it seem like she never shows up to ANYTHING and Donna died presumably not that long ago like a year or something so???
I hope she didn't because she would have made it about herself. I think she didn't or else Sophie would have mentioned something.
Usually in films with a three women friendship group, it’s hard to believe that without the lead the other two would EVER be friends because their personalities are so opposed. I loooove that Mamma Mia makes everyone love each other equally!

One of them quit acting, I’m guessing bringing only one back would just draw attention to the fact that the other wasn’t there

I only know that he played in the Brandon Frasier version of The Mummy movie. He played a very memorable character.

From the moment Donna arrives in Greece, the proportion of Greek people she meets is just absurdly low.

That's because the musical premiered in 1999 of course. But you are right: just not addressing in the film it is weird :P
Donna’s mother being dead in the first movie and suddenly alive in the sequel threw me so off 😭 Love Cher tho, and the continuity errors are worth it for the masterpiece we got

Like... what the actual hell?!
Yes you don’t know how much i needed this!!! i literally just rewatched both movies last weekend 🤩🤩
I hope you do more movie reviews, because they are genius!!!😄😄
I was having a bit of a rough day and this really cheered me up thanks man :))
Omit jalili is the comedian acting as Greek border official. He is brilliant.
mamma mia 2s birth scene is just a high quality glee knockoff
YESSSSSS IM SUCH A LUCKY BOY I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE'S MORE
The gender themes are so good because of the women involved in its production and direction.
oooh i'm keeping this video somewhere for when I will be sad
thank you for making my day, I AM OBSESSED WITH YOU
Loved both of your videos and & both movies. But the thing that bothered me the most is the first movie is all about Donna wanting Sophie to get off the island and follow her own dreams, but the second movie is about Sophie fulfilling her mother's dream. And it's clearly out of guilt. As a mom, I hate that. Although it's not clear to me how much time elapsed between the two movies, so I hope Sophie got to go to art school between them.
Five years, Donna died in year four.
Thank you!@@andrewwanner6855
You make me wanna watch the movie again but I don’t wanna cry for the nth time
That's Peeta Mellark to your left! Oh.
I live for your content
Amazing! Can’t wait to see what else you have in store
They added it back to Netflix (at least in Australia) since your last video! I'd like to think you had some influence over that deal 😂
The kiosk thing has always confused me (all 5 times I've watched the movie). Why is there a passport checkpoint between Greek mainland and Greek islands?? Or is the mainland supposed to be Turkey? Is it just ID control?
I know some islands have dedicated checkpoints because of risk of carrying viruses or biological material, maybe that's it?
@@beaujagr I don't think I've ever encountered a checkpoint but it has been a while since I've been so I could be misremembering! It does make sense honestly.
Okay I love watching you talk about Mamma Mia, you're so excited about it its great
Another great analysis - - - however, you left me behind at “meta-textual reference culture”!! Looking forward to more videos!
I wasn't paying full attention to the movie when I watched it, so the birthing scene just happened outta nowhere for me 😭
here we go again
Ok, I'll subscribe. This is awesome. Thank you!
6:13 just noticed peeta in the back, shout out
YES PART TWOOOOOO
Just found your channel and it sparks so much joy! Thank you!
Also also we see what the 3 boys looked like when Donna met them because we see the photos, why are the boys we meet when they are young so dramatically different? I get so annoyed by this hahh
HERE WE GO AGAIN, AGAIN
you look like young trixie mattel out of drag
This video gave me so much serotonin in a tough day thank you 🙏 ❤ it’s so sweet
3:16 i was just listening to this videp and then i have to look at the actual video bc i heard Tosh!! (From torchwood)
3:21 - NAOKO MORI??????????? EXCUSE ME??????? that made me do an absolute double take, what is miss toshiko sato doing here???
I love that you geek out about this as much as I do 😆🙌
If your entire channel was only Madness of Mamma Mia, it would be worth it.
I am watching your videos regardless BUT IM JUST SAYIN
I love what you do, honesty comes through !
