Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe in Santa - Phelous
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- A Christmas special so good it disappeared for years! With a voice cast that really shouldn't be in a production that has had so little effort put into it's animation. The Rapsittie Street Kids will show you the true nature of horrid 3D cartoons.

The real reason Luke hid on that island
"I've seen this raw garbage only once before. It didn't scare me enough then. It does now."
So I guess this was why Ben became Kylo then...
"My uncle was in this garbage?! I'm going Darkside so fast!"
Like attempts to burn down the scripts to these films and Yoda shows up
“Read then have you?”
“Well...no but I’ve heard they were bad”
“Page turners they were not”
he stayed on that dinosaur island alright ;)
So, I met Walter Jones a couple weeks ago and asked him about this movie. He said he never saw the finished version until years later and was only given a concept drawing of what he thought was a 2D movie. He had a good sense of humor about it, though.
I feel so bad for him...
Tiger Robocop yeah, especially after the bullshit Saban pulled on him and the other two actors.
Did he mention spending nearly a decade in a mental ward?? ...Probably....
So basically they lied to him?
You could tell he was actually trying, which is more than I can say about some of the voice actors and all of the rest of the staff.
I was a kid in 2002 watching Kids WB. I probably saw two seconds of this and changed the channel. Kids may have lower standards, but they know soulless garbage when they see it.
Kimi FW You missed out on history. 😝
Kimi FW i was born in 2002 and never knew this existed
same here I thought it was a fucked up fever dream
You're not lying. I have a 6 year old who shows no interest in any of the ultra cheap looking CG animation films and shows. Kids can tell the difference between the quality of a Moana or any one of the Toy Story flicks and something as tacky and blah looking as Rapsittie.
I was 10, flipping through channels. I stopped and watched one minute, then changed the channel. I spent years afterwards wondering what the hell was that creepy stuff on WB that one time.
Imagining Nancy Cartwright screeching "YOU WON'T GET AWAY FROM ME!" to the people voice acting to this makes me crack up every time.
Nancy won't let you escape once she's dropped money on a project, no matter how bad it turns out.
SHOCKER!!!
Wow, this makes Dingo Pictures look good. This thing is really creepy.
LOL, that was exactly what I thought when I saw the thumbnail
That's MISS Bull. I think...
that just shows that 2D is always superior to CGI
All hail The Colonel!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
....even though all of this is just SOOOOOO stupid!!!!! 😼😼😼😼😼
At least this movie had actual voice talent (who I assume haven’t seen the final product). Dingo just uses the same 1 or 2 bad voice actors over and over again.
Credit where it's due. You're the first reviewer to attempt to subtitle the incomprehensible grandma (and they look fairly accurate too).
Agreed XD
He’s nothing if not thorough in his reviews.
@@namelessjedi2242Which is one reason I like Phelous’ reviews so much - how thorough he is in the history behind whatever he’s reviewing.
I always thought "Rapsittie" was a respelling of "Rap City" until Phelan pointed out that it's a respelling of "Rhapsody".
If the title wanted to be fully accurate, it would be called “Rapshitty Street Kids: All I want for Christmas is better animation.”
That’s the beauty of it: it’s BOTH!
@@namelessjedi2242And it’s awful for both!
Didn't get that till now
Who gave you that candle, Phelous? Who gave you that candle???
vincent brabec that's meeeeeeeeean >:(
The Doorman : thank you for that
The Doorman shut that door. ;)
IWILLREPORTYOU >:(((((
vincent brabec no need to be harsh there about that candle
"RAPSITTIE ST. ELEMENTARY - Striving for excelence"
Not striving for excellence in spelling, though.
atomicdancer I think the spelling is the least of their concerns...
LOL!!!
"Because poor literacy is... the result of an underfunded education system!"
Isn't that a friggin' metaphor?! You can't spell "excellence", you can't achieve excellence! (Insert Trump side joke here.)
Was it Rapsitte Street kids because of the rapping? Or because the people working on it didn't know how to consistently spell Rhapsody? I actually assume the latter what with how they spelled excellence.
I like how they're "STRIVING FOR EXCELENCE" but can't even spell Excellence right. Pretty apt for this movie.
c0ke Teh Whale then again they can't even spell Rhapsody, unless the title is some sort of pun.
@@chayden153 Or spell it as "Rap City."
@@HermaphroGynandro aah now that actually makes sense
FAIL
A little raccoon who hops around like a kangaroo told me that most of the people in Rapsittie are so stupid. I tend to agree with him.
I hope you review Wolf Tracer's Dinosaur Island.
Oops, sorry, that was intelligible. Let me speak more clearly.
HfrehfhigedsgiykfeshigehlgwihrwgbifIGYBVyigveqoygfeqvyvqebiycwiyvvwBILCQycqygvvqcliycwivigvviivwwDinosaur!
Well, they never said they were striving for INTELIGENCE....
After you mentioned it, I had to look it up. My gosh why was Mark Hamilton in it?!?! My eyes!!! My brain!!!!
EquesTron Hbdieohhrgbagliburdbadeeibahur Christmaaaaasssssss...
EquesTron Nailed it. Yes!
Tommy Deonauth's Archives Moar like potty mouth liars! Yes, I win again! 😎
"You might be smart with books, but you sure are stupid."
BEST. LINE. EVER.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England it's that wonderful combination of trying to pretend you don't care about rejection with a quip but inwardly you are too emotionally shattered.
We all know that the best line of the movie is "Close that door!". That or whatever the granny rambled.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England So True.
So basically 'I'M NOT MAD! YOU'RE MAD!'
Somebody tell that to Frollo & whoever else said "You is the Pope of Fools!!"
Sometimes I wonder what Phelous' neighbors think of him.
Sarah Rodriguez I'm pretty sure they're used to it by now... XD
wish i was his neighbor, id ask to watch him film every one. and help out.
I once listened to an interview with Grey Delisle where she talked about being in a Christmas special where the director was inexperienced in animation. He would sit next to her and creepily stare at her while she was recording her lines. Is it possible it could be this one?
Art Schivel id bet u money that this is it!!!
Art Schivel ew, at least Grey and the rest of the cast went on to do better things than this 'movie'
bubblelover343 and that's putting it nicely
I'm sure this is what she was referring to. Yikes!
I read that she'll block people who mention this movie to her. I'm not surprised because working on this must have been an awful and draining experience for the voice cast.
I've seen 'movies' made with The Sims 1 that had better animation.
Avellania I have too actually.
I always wondered how they did that, any ideas?
i've seen flashes on newgrounds in 1999 that had better animation.
...
...
...Can I have some good, wholesome, coherent Dingo Pictures Productions, please?
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England All out. Wait till next year.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England. TF2 Engineer: Nope.
King Edward "Longshanks" I, Hammer of the Scots, Lord of Wales and King of England
Why yes, You may. But you’ll have to go through the trials of THE BLOODBUSH!!!
He he he he Ha hahahahaha. Huahahahahahaahahahaha. MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHAHAHA. HA!!!
I have some right here!
For youuuuuuuuuuuu
Good?? Wholesome?? Coherent?? Better hope for a holiday miracle.....not!!
This is Dingo we're talking about here....
SHUT THAT DOOR!
Yeah, he should have commented on this classic Christmas line.
Xianos ...Should have been the word on the Executive who greenlit this shit, as he kicks them out for their pathetic presentation.
Actually, it’s what Mark Hamill told the people who accidentally walked in on him while he embarrassingly recorded for this studio’s films due to contractual obligation.
Especially since it sounds like Dave Coulier Venkman saying it (kinda).
Only when and if I authorize it.
When I authorize it.
"Now in most cartoons, it looking completely dead and not moving would be the answer to the question. But not in Rapsittie Street Kids."
This must be one of my favourite lines from you ever.
My personal theory about grandma is that she had a stroke a couple of years prior, and while she's gotten physically better she's still having trouble talking, Ricky can understand her because he's known her for so long. Make about as much sense as the rest of the film. And hey, she's said at least one or two full sentences in the movie, so at least the speech therapy is paying off.
I think she's having a stroke and a seizure at the same time.
@@kenthuang436 yep!
Yes and Ricky is constantly pretending that She is a normal Grandma instead of Someone Who obviously needs mental help.@@kenthuang436
the parts where you mimicked the characters movements outside were hilarious
>06 model of Sonic right before the "That's NO good" moment.
>The people in this... 'special' move like the townspeople in 06
Huh.
omg, so accurate. this makes Foodfight's Animation look like Pixar times ∞. but hey at least there are no characters who care about their couples more than the actual world and a father who makes all the unholy, evil and remotely mean things in existence look like all the likable, nice and holy things in existence on how he promised his daughter that if she cries a flame of disaster destroys everything in existence and dies in front of her in order for that to happen like in Sonic 06 right!??!?!!?!?
Mario And Love Ya PlushMasters even by Sonic standards that plot point was infuriatingly stupid.
Dan Gleeson Dude, this makes Sonic 06 look like it was animated by Pixar. Hell, it makes Norm of the North look like it was animated by Pixar.
Mario And Love Ya PlushMasters Dude, Elise is a nice person and doesn't deserve to be treated so rotten.
@powerstar 2028 06 should be a case study on how to make every bad decision while making a video game. even if every bug and glitch was patched, it would still be a truly awful game in every regard. that's kinda what redeems it. there is plenty to learn from playing 06. secret rings is the worst though. you are 100% right. it's not a game with bad controls. it's a game with no controls.
I always save re-watching this review for every December, like all of Phelous's Christmas reviews.
Personal tradition of mine!
Same!
I heard at least two rumors about what the deal was with great grandma's lines, because her lines were originally filmed coherently but (rumor 1) the lines were messed up in the export process or (more plausible rumor 2) they did it because they thought it'd be funny. I'm really surprised that J. Rose didn't end up suing the studio.
J. Rose has the issue of apparently not having bothered checking up on Wolf Tracer's animation work.
If they'd checked on it earlier on they probably could have shut them down and moved production elsewhere. (Depending on what deals were signed.)
Even so, some part of this still smells of a The Producers situation . . . intentionally tank the project and keep the bulk of the investment money
rickpgriffin I have also heard rumours that this was a rip off joke of a character from King of the Hill, I can't remember what characters but apparantly there was a character eho spoke like that sround the same time ss this movie was produced.
I honestly can’t tell whether or not this choice is racist, or just weird, because I can’t tell if Ricky’s grandma is an immigrant or not.
I’m going to with the latter because I don’t think they thought far enough ahead to consider immigration.
Boomhauer? He's not half this incoherent.
holy shit Clint Howard...how'd I miss the Ice Cream Man himself the first time I heard someone breakdown this abomination?
You guys gotta try this!
So this was the prequel to “Where The Dead Go To Die”.
That's what this movie reminds me of. Almost as disturbing
nope this came 10 years before.
Mario And Love Ya PlushMasters that’s the joke.
No, this Is the secret origin of Xavier Renegade Angel.
Jimmy Screamerclauz wishes he could be this horrifying.
Now the star wars hoilday special is only the second worst hoilday special mark hamill was involved with....wow
Aaron Beaulieu Hrbedurbaheeeerbadoourbeeooordbbbb...Life Day!
Brother Malachai the best of course being the xmas episode of Batman the animated series
Life just sucks really hard sometimes...oh well, at least THE ICE CREAM MAN (clint howard) is in this.
Aaron Beaulieu the episode titled "Christmas With The Joker" that was awesome 😀
Aaron Beaulieu I feel sorry for him.
I have some information
First is the animation. The movie was animated on a software called 3D choreographer. It was a very limited software and was not used for 40 min long movies. It was mainly used in schools, for people to learn animation and to just mess around with. It honesty a miracle the movie was even made.
The movie only aired on 3 stations. WABC-tv in New York, on KABC-tv in Los Angels and it might’ve aired in Boston on UPN. The reason it got to air is because Colin knew someone who ran a few stations owned by the WB. Colin told him about the cast, Nancy Cartwright producing and it having computer animation.
The way Colin got all the actors is because he had an amazing casting director who got half the cast. And Nancy Cartwright knew a lot of people. The way he got them was he paid them whatever they wanted for a 4 hour job.
And the reason the film was just so bad is because the director Colin Slater was very inexperienced with animation. He mainly did music videos. And all the animators we’re learning how to do animation while making the movie.and they blew most of the budget on music and the voice acting.
Hope the covers things up
UPDATE: after talking to one of the animators I asked him about grandmas voice. Apparently the film was about to air in 5 days and the studio was getting ready to close for holiday. The pcs they used to render the movies crashed. They were able to recover the movie and everything in it. But grandmas audio files crashed and they didn’t notice.
@Katie Lewis I guess that was part of the deal Colin made with JRose Productions
Wow
10:02 Hello, Dingo? I'm sorry I want you back.
12:04 WHY YOU LITTLE!
17:10 So when's the Jumpscare? This is clearly a rejected FNAF animatronic so I just have to know.
Dammit, Phelous, now you have to review Dinosaur Island!
TheDracoChick
Yee
TheDracoChick Saberspark already did that.
What about the long awaited crossover with Dingo Pictures Dinosaurs! 🦕🦖🦎
"My name's Jenna, and I'll be back for the Easter Bunny!"🙄😂
"LIKE HELL YOU WILL!!!"😠🤣
Still trying to figure if grandma's dialogue at the end is deliberate or an audio glitch.
Its funny in retrospective now since Jedi Fallen Order came out that Mark Hamill was in this, Debra Wilson also had a prominent role in Fallen Order as the Jedi who was helping Cal Kestis out. She also was Grace Walker in Wolfenstein II and a bunch of other big video games too.
I didn't know Runescape made a Christmas special
Loool
So if Phelous hypothesis is right, then we have Scientology to blame for this masterpiece of animation. Thanks Scientology you've given us such a treasure, not.
JacobxDeathclaw One can only hope that the glorious corporate structure of Disney won't tolerate such nonsense from the people on its payroll now that they own The Simpsons.
Wait, is this movie an indoctrination to Scientology?? Sprinkled in with large helpings of Satanism?? And poop?? 💩
Battlefield Earth and now this.....TRUE GEMS OF CINEMA.
Cat Santos Er, satanism? What do you mean?
Xenu works in mysterious ways.
I never thought Phelan was ever going to review “Where the Dead Go to Die”, but
B O Y W A S I W R O N G.
Where the Dead Mall-Santas Go to Die
So this is what hell is like.
*Interesting*
Pause at 22:53. Her arms are clearly broken.
I'm too stoned to come up with a username everything's broke in this
Clearly, Mark Hammel 's portrayal as a cop is his most defining role.
First the Nostalgia Critic then TheMysteriousMrEnter and now Phelous. Guess I'm just eager to see everyone's different review style on this shit fest of a "Christmas" movie.
DashieSparkle And Bobsheaux.
Oh he reviewed too. Might check it out.
And The Annotation Station.
And Quinton Reviews.
I thought Mr. Enter did his version like a year before Nostalgia Critic's?
You know J.R. Horsting's character in First Contact was the most important character. First Contact would have been nothing without J.R. Jorsring's Borg, he is truly the Groppler Zorn of First Contact.
this is fucking scary
So they started out naming this "Bash Street Kids" and then changed the name after they found out about the comic strip.... but then proceeded to have one of their characters ("Smiffy") named after one of the Bash Street Kids. Good going.
12:28 This tree wouldn't cut in an N64 game. What was it doing in a movie in 2002?
That....is something I hadn't thought of. Yeah the trees in Mario 64 and especially Ocarina of Time look more real than that.
Batzarro not true. Superman 64!
Why do you think they even animated this movie in 3-D when they clearly didn't have the budget to do so? They could have just made it 2-D and it could have looked monumentally better.
I think its actual clip art
superman 64 didn't have trees... did it?
so...is this movie a Scientology scam?
Yup.
Faust Girl Probably... Scientology IS a scam after all.
It's a scam with layers 🧅
Written and produced by a con artist, who was already a part of the Scientology scam.
11:03 How am I only now learning this was a reference to Sonic CD’s beta?
This looks like it came out a week after Alone in The Dark.
Arrowdodger that game looks alot better and realistic than this
time to revisit this classic Christmas review again!
The voice of Bart Simpson is a member of Scientology!?
My childhood is dead.
You know what this animation reminds me of? The original Alone in the Dark PC game. Except that that game had better animation, models and textures... and came out 10 years earlier.
Hi phelous! I can't seem to get away from this nightmare of a movie sense nostalgia critic covered it. Thanks for the nightmares the day before my 25th birthday. Keep up the great work and thank you for making me smile. Merry Christmas and God bless!😊
Happy early bday!
It’s becoming like a folk tale passed down through generations. Rebel Taxi reviewed it, Doug Walker reviewed it, and now Phelous reviewed it
Poever Bobsheaux too!
Timothy Gauker So, what poor reviewer is going to suffer through this now? XD
I actually heard about it years ago on the criminally under-viewed Bad Toons podcast by Scumm of the Earth.
When I heard _Paige O’Hara_ was in _this,_ my jaw literally dropped.
You actually had THE Belle in this review, and didn't bring in Old Man?! I am disappointed....
Even if Crapshitty street kids wasn’t complete crap and even if it wasn’t covered in all that wet snow, not having Old Man in this review when Paige O’Hara was in it make this video completely useless.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
He-heeeeeeee!
Here's a fun fact for you ,this review was released on Phelous's patreon the exact same day the nostalgia critic did his review of the same Christmas special , "Coincidence , I think NOT"!!!(But it's most likely a coincidence though )
Nathaniel Foga and both share the same thumbnail: covering their faces in absolute horror
TheMysteriousMrEnter reviewed this movie a year ago. They aren't special
Beast I could say the same thing for Phelps he reviewed the Christmas tree.
Nathaniel Foga cr1tical realised his part 2 rewiew on the same day aswell.
Considering they stopped talking nearly three years before they both reviewed it, I’d say it really was a coincidence.
You know one thing I really love about your videos, aside from the black-comedy silliness? It seems like you always manage to have something unique to your reviews even when you're not the only one reviewing it.
... in this case, risking permanent spinal injury by trying to imitate the characters.
OMFG, I can't stop laughing! I can't even pick a favorite moment! Thanks for the much needed laugh, Phelous! Christmas came early! Happy Holidays!
Thank you so much! I was literally in tears laughing at this video. You are utterly hilarious
Makes you wonder what Phelous's neighbors think when they see him outside doing stuff like that.
I bet One of these days they'll call the people from looney bin to haul his ass away.
You are the fifth person i've seen review this abysmal work of... art, and yet you are the first to point out the rhapsody pun in the title. I would have never even thought about it, honestly.
...Or maybe i'm just dumb. -Or the pun is ridiculously stupid.-
There was a pod-cast that mentioned the name and they went as bat-shit about it because WHY? Why do you spell it like that and then have the ACTUAL spelling in the same movie?!
I actually watched Rapsittie Street Kids without gouging my eyes out! Believe me, it wasn’t easy!
The Grandma was carrying the entire special.
Apparently, part of the reason this looks so bad is because the program they used was designed in the 90s to make animations for slideshow presentations. It was never meant to make movies at all and was nearly a decade out of date at the time.
The worst Christmas special Mark Hamil's been in since the star wars Christmas special.
26:23 Phelous's neighbor: What is he doing? Is he alright?
Considering what other UA-camrs do for videos, I bet they're glad all Phelous does is the occasional silly bit in his backyard.
How can you screw up with such a talented cast
As of July 26th, 2021, the full version of the software that was used to animate this was found after being lost for decades. It was called 3D Choreographer and was meant to be an animation tool for non-artists.
We would've been better off if it stayed lost.
@@MegaAnimazing No way
Whoa
Maybe but We wouldn’t have such hilarious reviews on UA-cam if it did stay lost so maybe it’s a good thing that it was found.@@MegaAnimazing
I'm stunned this aired on TV. I've seen F grade demo reels from computer animation students better than this.
23:54 It must have been strange for Ricky to ask his grandma for advice only for her to start explaining the lore of their own special out of nowhere.
And the moral of the story: Giving away a teddy bear that represents your dead mother gets you a pony and an Xbox.
Actually Scientology plays a part why this was even aired ! There's a video that touches on it ! Wish there was aa little more info
fussyrussy1963 could you elaborate on this? Is everyone in this a scientologist?
Well Nancy ( Bart) is one of the producers
This should've been a Halloween review
Watched this with a few friends on a late December night. No regrets lol.
It's like the woman who voiced the Grandmother recorded all her lines but didn't realise the audio had corrupted before she sent it away. Then either they couldn't get hold of her to re-record them or they just said "Eh...it'll do" and used them anyway.
Well shit
I watch this video every Christmas.
With all these re-animated projects i've been seeing on UA-cam i can see this being reanimated as there are talented web animators who could do better than this.
14:35
Teacher: Ugh!
Phelous: Yeah, that about sums it up…
Xavier: Renegade Angel has not prepared me enough for this.
The voice actors in the movie: "Can I get my free unsee drops now?"
I had always wanted to see more of the Baldi's Basics world!
I hope none of your neighbors saw you outside.
Missed opportunity for Fat Grandma cameo
Hamill’s character is kinda like Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Hands always on his hips. Carl is awesome though, in a very sad kind of way
natemo82 We should dub all eight of his lines with some of his quotes from Batman, I know NC did, but it's too hilarious to think about the fucking Joker doing this!
23:45 The best part about this is knowing Phelous had to pause, rewind, and replay that one little snippet of nonsense, over and over and over, in order to transcribe all that.
To quote another Mark Hamill movie, "This is not going to go the way you think..." (And Clint Howard is also in "Solo"...)
I know Paige O'Hara mostly focuses on her art now, though she narrated a Las Vegas production of "Beauty and the Beast" last year.
He what?
its like the Nintendo "You Cannot Beat Us" commercials
Grey Delisle was in this too? Oh I better not bring this up when I chat with her on Twitter.
Asking about that candle was just uncalled for!
This is my best Christmas gift ever... seeing Phelan in the most pain and agony possible.
I’ve seen this review many times, but I only just realized something, something that may very well haunt me for the rest of my life, now that I’m aware of it. A simple question, that the movie failed to answer:
Who gave Ricky that candle?!
"I'm having a great day because that gum I like is coming back in style." LOL
That Nelson clip you played is probably my favorite Nelson moment from the Simpsons.
"Ha ha! ...Hey...that hurts. No wonder no one came to my birthday party..." Aww. :P
The real reason spinel stayed in the garden for 6000 years
My favourite part is when Phelous mimics the movements of the characters. He's right - a wolf would do a better job 🤣
Oh my god, I love that line “he has no eyelids and he must blink”.
I adore this video so much, and it introduced me to your channel.
33:00
You know, I actually thought someone snuck a Babel Fish in my ear at first. I was just as surprised as you, Phelous.
First of all, Merry Christmas, Phelous. And thank you for all of your hard work in entertaining us with your reviews. :)
Secondly...I am SO SO beyond sorry that you had to watch this, it's just inconceivably awful!
There's one way to watch this
Not watching it at all
Once you've been exposed to just a second of this crap, you can't unsee it
Watch it while stoned, would be a better experience
“The animator has a nap! Hold out! Animator!”
Gotta appreciate the Sonic CD 510 prototype reference lol
This special was nowhere mentioned in Jodi Benson’s memoir. Wonder why?
My poor puppy is now traumatized after hearing the sounds I made laughing at that grandma
Okay, let's see if I understand correctly: Ricky has a crush on a girl that we never see him interact with, she seems to be the materialistic type so of COURSE a teddy bear that was laying on the floor of his bedroom would win her affection instantly, and when she reacts negatively he manages to insult her a call her stupid? Don't get me wrong, I've seen similar behavior IRL but I don't want to see that in a movie, especially if you want me to sympathize with these characters...
Watching his reviews of festive garbage like this has become a holiday tradition of mine
