Just imagine if the movie ended like this: Stanley was a statue all along and the kids were bored...
That'd be going a bit far though. With what they would be seeing, it'd be too obvious that they were high on pot.
And they let Rosie the 5 year old make everything up
+TheDreweMaster no thats more like a mushrooms high
its better then this
+dr robo agreed
I saw this movie with my 2nd grade class. I can't believe I sat through it. But I do remember at the end when Stanley turned New York into a giant hedge, every kid in the class laughed their asses off.
Best movie ending
I wanna see a reboot of this movie. I even have a few different ways to fix the movie!
First off, give Stanley a more scary and menacing design, and make him big as well, where it's more surprising that he loves flowers. Make it a big trial when he's found out, where the other trolls exile him to the land of humans, (not to Central Park specifically), where he eventually makes his way to Central Park Avenue. Make Gus more passive towards his father making all their decisions, (get rid of that big tantrum so it's more meaningful when he stands up for himself at the end), where he sneaks outta his room through the window with his sister. Eventually Rosie meets Stanley, where she's not terrified of him being so young and innocent, making Stanley show off his softer side knowing someone wasn't scared of him. Gus is terrified of Stanley, but warms up to him. Make it a bigger deal when Rosie is captured by Gnorga, cut out all of the annoying filler and give the film a more meaningful and dark tone. And for a meaningful ending, maybe keep Stanley as a statue at the end, where the whole park grows more and more beautiful when Gus and Rosie come back to it.
In my opinion, this would make the film much better.
Or replace Gnorga with Satan.
wow... that sounds more like Don Bluth than the actual Don Bluth film we got
Don Bluth movies from the 80’s meets Studio Ghibli, I love it!
@@LunaKittyfox Speaking of Studio Ghibli, I honestly would've loved it if _Troll_ became more anti-war. You have Stanley wanting peace unlike Gnorga who loves fighting and war, and the song "Absolutely Green" focuses on how we can create a peaceful world together. It isn't even that bad of a song, just too sweet to the point of being sickly in the context of the movie.
Yes, yes, YES! I’d love to see this version of the movie! Animators of UA-cam, please make this a reality!
Actually, Stanley's plants would eventually release a chemical that would make people kill themselves and/or strip themselves of any acting talent.
But anyway, you like hot dogs right?
Kugawattan The Bluthening?
Kugawattan i know this film reminded me of something.
What no
You got the mustard?
What? No.
I get the feeling this is Don Bluth's passive agressive response to being asked to make this movie
I kinda feel like this movie was *meant* to be horrible. Like Bluth was giving a middle finger to the "safe movies for kids" parental drama. It's like, "You want a safe movie for kids that doesn't challenge them? Huh? You want that? You want bright, pretty colors and brain-numbing music and no danger or action or substance whatsoever? You want your cutsie formula with song-numbers? Need TV to shut your kid up so you don't have to do your job and provide guidance during this crucial time of their mental and emotional development? I'M making too dark of films for you, Disney? Well here - take this. It's what you wanted...RIGHT? RIGHT?!" D:
I guess I would do the same if I got THOSE complaints. But I would make it even more mind-numbingly stupidly happy
Deziede for some reason i find your comment adorable xD
Deziede
Imagine Bluth’s take on the Shrek-clones of the 2000s or the Despicable Me alikes of the 2010s.
Bluth himself even admits that he hated the film so... Maybe?
I think it’s more like in the 90’s Disney finally got their shit together. And by getting their shit together I mean the pay threw a bucket of money at the artists and writers that worked for other studios like Don Bluth that had been eating their lunch in the 80’s.
7:50
If any sane adult saw how excited Stanley got over that kiss from a little girl, they'd report him as a sex offender before he commits his first offense on Rosie.
FBI! OPEN UP!!!
CIA! OPEN UP!!!
LSPD! OPEN UP!!!

A-Ha! So *that's* how the virus in The Last of Us was started! That damn Stanley went and caused the apocalypse! O.o
+Souji Monaru well it's not clarified how much time goes past in that little sequence at the end of the movie so it could be possible that stanley sent out a fungal based infection that slowly killed everyone off
Beat me to it by a month. Kudos, man.
Should have picked the red door.
Yeah. At least terrorists didn't destroy the Twin Towers in that universe.
Or should I say... THE TWIN FLOWERS!!!
...I'll go find some hemlock.
Souji Monaru Lol
Man, this movie's ending is more apocalyptic then the "Don't Feed the Plants" ending from Little Shop of Horrors
We need the Audrey 2 to eat that little troll and end his reign of terror!
now i want to see stanley getting mauled to death by audrey2 lmao
I've HEARD that Don Bluth himself hates this move.
Yeah makes sense.
yes he did
Then why did he make it?
@@mrcritical6751 ok from what I gathered apparently it was a passion project but he wasn't given time and the funding and is a product of half ass studio involvement
@@mrcritical6751 still sucks though
I think this movie was the equivalent of Don Bluth saying, "oh yeah Disney? You like drawing happy dancing flowers that make millions of dollars? I'LL SHOW YOU HAPPY DANCING FLOWERS!"
This is now my justification for this "film".
AT Productions What did he originally have in mind?
Do you know what Stanley's backstory was or anything like that?
Judging by the ending of this movie he was originally a maniac who wanted to wipe out humanity by overtaking the world with plant life
Your comment made my day. I couldn't laugh harder than that. I wished I could just upped the LIKE on this.
If they wanted to banish him to a place where no plants grow, they should've just sent him to the south pole.
Also, as a Norwegian I find it pretty ironic that the trolls in this movie hate flowers and plants when in the original Scandinavian fairytales trolls came from in the first place, they're basically nature spirits, to the point where most of them have plants growing on them, including flowers, moss, mushrooms, and even trees if the troll is big enough.
I thought that Norse/Finnish/Scandinavian/etc. trolls personified the wild parts of nature, while the various Scandinavian fae personified tamer parts of nature. Not taking into account the wide spectrum of personalities/morals of trolls and fae because they are all quite different. Like how a troll could be rather peaceful while a Nixie or Huldra might be fond of killing people.
Damien Jarlen
That's one way to look at it, yes. There are both good and bad trolls, ugly or beautiful, dumb or wise, but they're all nature spirits. Same with Huldra, she can be helpful or evil, but she's always a seductive nature spirit. Generally speaking, trolls hate Christianity, not nature, but I'm totally fine with leaving religion out of kids' movies.
Plus, I don't think the creators of these movies usually do much research into the folklore they're borrowing from anyways, hence why trolls in Hollywood movies almost never look anything like they do in Scandinavian fairytales (this movie being a notable exception in that the trolls here actually do have big ears, big noses and tails, which is the most common description of trolls in Scandinavian fairytales).
I thought trolls came from rocks.
the telekinetic rock
No, they don't come from rocks, they become rocks in the sunlight. Well, some of them do, not all.
Niobesnuppa I was close.
This movie really trolls the audience.
Bdoon Tish!

@@alexjewett7455 I'm planning that for Sonic X episode 9. That is the worst thing that is created by the entire human race.
This movie sucks, that's true, but you have to give credit to Dom DeLouise: even if it's a crappy role, he gave 100% in his voice acting.
I don't like his voice acting in any of his roles. I find him extremely annoying just like his characters are always obnoxious.
Yeah, always a hoot and a half! XD
No I have to agree Dom is legitimately trying even if the script is complete garbage. hes putting on a legitimately warm and attemptedly energetic performance I'm just sad that THIS is the Don Bluth movie he got to be the actual star of.
I think this is what Koosalagoopagoop from _Dexter's Laboratory_ was meant to be making fun of. He is also voiced by Dom DeLuise.
IM A BAAAAAD TROOOOLLLL
you mean SARAH nyberg right?
VampireKatana this is a bad movie. A very bad movie

This one of my favorite Nostalgia critic reviews. The reviews are more fun when the reviewer has to watch something bad.
Totally agreed on that!

Exactly. I was freaking laughing at a few moments.
I think his reviews where better before all the skits
@@miymoto128 facts the skits are unbearable 95% of the time
Instead of "I'm a bad troll. A very bad troll."

The video game last of us?
I went to a daycare when I was little, and in the summer time when there was no school, we had to sit down for movie time every single day so that the supervisor didn't have to watch us for an hour. She had only 5 movies for us to pick from because she couldn't be bothered to get us any more, nor could we bring out own because she would have to pre-approve them which means she'd have to watch them and she couldn't be bothered. (I never got my copy of Atlantis back.) Each of us got our turn to choose the movie every day. This was one of those movies, and can you guess which one got picked every time one of the kids under 5 got a turn to pick? This fucking piece of trash. I had to watch this movie 20 times in 2 months. A Troll in Central Park is my own personal hell.
just checking in 7 years later I hope that whore gave your copy of Atlantis back.
That is truly a punishment that you did not deserve. Would you say that you and the rest of the kids would have been better in a Viatnamese camp?
@@DemiRurge we would have been better off in a saw movie lol
@@winterx2348 Honestly, every single character in this movie should be put in a saw movie
I'm sure studio ghibli would have somehow made this concept alot more interesting.
that's kinda my neighbor totoro
I’d love to see them save this movie!
@@cousinlaszlorobinson8253 one of my favorite movies as a kid along with _Ponyo_
@@cousinlaszlorobinson8253 the biggest similarity between this film and My Neighbor Totoro is the younger sibling accidentally slides down into an underground habitat, where they find a troll, and even fall asleep in the troll's home. And Totoro is a troll because Tororo means troll in Japanese. Trolls can be spirits that protect forests; Totoro helps plants grow, like Stanley does. There is an environmentalism theme in both films. Also, both trolls provide a vehicle to assist humans (in Totoro there is the catbus, and here you can see Gus' toy boat becomes a flying vehicle). Both trolls also comfort the children when they are sad. I could go on!

"And then he says, 'I have to go potty'!"
My inner 6 year old has officially resurfaced. I couldn't stop cracking up at that line XD

Top 3 animated films with the WORST message imaginable:
3. Norm of the North: Don’t build homes in the arctic.
2. The Emoji Movie: Emojis are the best form of communication.
1. A Troll in Central Park: Just dream.
Not to be rude or anything, but as a fan of The Emoji Movie (2017), I believe the message is about being yourself and that you don’t have to be like everyone else, cause all the other emojis only had one emotion, while Gene had many different emotions and was outcasted by the others for who he was.
It's confirmed, Stanley is newest Batman villian!
The innocence and beauty diminishes when one realizes that flowers are basically reproductive organs of plants.
MsDjessa
The innocence and beauty diminishes when one realises five seconds in that this film is unworthy of lining my fireplace.
So, dancing flowers are technically dancing dicks.
This movie gave birth to a whole new generation of trolls on the internet

This is what Spongebob dreams of when he's asleep.
Except it's a nightmare
And on drugs
SpongeBod after he wakes up: WOW, I just had the worst nightmare in my life.
Yeah this really was a nightmare
"GARY! WAKE ME UP! I HATE THIS DREAM!!!"
So his dream was to kill every person who had *allergies* and cause a massive *bug problem* for the survivors. Reminds me of a manga I read called *Green WorldZ.* It was a horror manga. Good one too. 😐

Man the ending with dinosaurs destroying Stanley and his plants over the phone was so satisfying and hilarious.
For the record, Dom DeLuise was in multiple Don Bluth projects. He was Jeremy from The Secret of NIMH, Itchy Itcherford from All Dogs Go to Heaven and Tiger from An American Tail. Kind of makes me wonder if DeLuise and Bluth were friends at some point like Johnny Depp and Tim Burton.
Dom Deluise was the Alan Tudyk of Don Bluth.
Or Alan Tudyk with Disney. Or Greg Cipes in almost everything Ciro Nieli has done.
"So Stanley enslaves New York because he can dream it I guess" for some reason that delivery made me laugh

She's referring to the people watching this movie.
It would be far less bad if the little boy wasn't just a generic little boy... Maybe he's a boy who likes "flowery" things, but dad doesn't approve? Rather than a tantrum, he immidiatly gives up what he wants to do to impress dad. Then Stanly is this troll who doesn't want to give up his floweryness, so gives up "people" (or trolls) in general. Both of them aren't dealing with their problem correctly as they are both running away or hiding from it. Then by the end they learn to stand up for themselves thus making the "be courageous and work for your dreams" message more defined. It's a road well traveled but at least it's clear.
Betsy Lee holy shit you just single handedly did a better job than a dozen of writers and animators congratulations
Thanks. Though, this is the value of good editing or a good consultant with fresh eyes early in pre-production. Looking at what the writer has already and pointing out the muddy bits. It is one of the first jobs that are cut for time or for money reasons. Folks just don't spend enough time in pre-pro.
Betsy Lee you got a better plot for this movie. also, would it be better if Stanley were more monstrous in looks but had a love for plants? it could be used to create beauty and destruction. think don Bluth could've used that plot ?
***** I like it as a general rule of design contrast if it works in flow with the main moral. Shoot, make him more "soil like" as plants need soil. Trolls are earth elemental beings and they aren't terribly cute. with stan as the only cute one and the only good one it makes cute=good. Not a great message (neither is cute=bad, but that would be covered with the human boy's side of the story). As long as it doesn't overload the moral or turn cliche.
Betsy Lee hi
"I'm a bad troll, a very bad troll"
- a bad troll
Am I the only one who thought Stanley was more than a little too friendly with Rosie? Like it’s genuinely creepy.
I think the moral was to ask his fater politely instead of demanding it like a spoiled little shit. NOT THAT THAT REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE CONCERNING HOW AWFUL THIS MOVIE IS.
+Wolfgang Ervin this makes fern gully look like a psychological thriller.
"Talk about pandering to your kids and not having any respect for their intelligence" One of the BILLIONS of things wrong with Teen Titans Go.
Breaking TEN Frankly, I would gladly teach the Titans in that show a lesson with the Omnitrix, maybe stomp on them as Waybig, blow them up with Atomix, or just use Jury Rigg to utterly wreck their tower and their version of Cyborg, that way they can't use their gadgets right and could get themselves killed.
No more Toddler Titans, no more worries and pain.
Breaking TEN
Not to mention literally insulting the fans of the original series as much as physically possible.
Seriously. The Mysterious Mr. Enter is a good example of a Toddle Titans victim.
Special Agent Washing Tub Amen, brother.
Special Agent Washing Tub actually, it wouldn't be too bad about somewhat rubbin it in the faces of the original fans if it was toned or subtle, but they literally went out of their way to several times make fun of the original while showing it so there is no mistake on what they insult or worst of all, they literally point out that they KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEMS WITH THE SHOW ARE?! Who the freak does that, who literally rubs it in your face that they know what the problem is but keep going on with them
ilopominecrafter Like I said, man, gimme an Omnitrix. I'll leave a big flaming crater where Titans Tower used to be, no matter what.
Still confuses me why characters who don't like happiness actually become happy themselves.
Nobody dislikes happiness think about it
I also love how with the design of Gnorga Bluth is clearly copying Ursula from the Little Mermaid, and Divine by extension.
argella1300 Bluth inspires Disney to stop sucking and then rips them off. Sucks
This is the exact reason why Don Bluth & co. should never, EVER try to emulate Disney.
You do you, Boo-Boo!!!
Also, don't rip off gremlins.
olojoh031 penguins562 Yeah expect where those rip offs were painful to watch, Rasputin was actual entertaining, and a fun villain.
100%! Gnorga even seems to use the same kind of cone-shaped lipstick as Ursula does.
How many animated women do you know of who use a red shellfish as lipstick? Seriously, I'm pretty sure there are only two.

*awesome animated films. Even Chicken Little is too good for you.
I was talking to Lonel, because as shit as Chicken Little is, it's still too good for somebody who genuinely thinks that Disney films are just shite in general when even their worst is par-for-the-course for most of their competition.
+Explosion Productions Blue Sky made The Peanuts Movie, though... sure, they have all the Ice Age sequels as well, which they keep pumping out, but still

@@randalgraves6979 A movie infinitely better than this one
I watched this every day after I got to my grandmother's house after Kindergarten (and 1st Grade and part of 2nd Grade) while waiting for my mother to get off work and pick me up. I absolutely adored this movie with everything in me until about halfway through 2nd Grade when I stopped going to my grandma's house every day after school (I transferred schools and was no longer right down the block from her house) so I stopped watching it entirely as it was a movie my grandmother had, not me. I STILL occasionally get 'Absolutely Green!' stuck in my head, still think the animation is beautiful, and still have a soft spot for a movie I loved for two and a half years. Yeah, it's the movie equivalent of shaking keys in front of a baby but as a kid with ADHD, it was the perfect thing to keep me quiet and still until my mom picked me up. It worked out and I'm no worse off for having enjoyed it for so long.
14:37 Seeing them on the tricycles got a genuine chuckle out of me.
You know I'll give the movie that. it's not an amazing joke but it's a cute chuckle. the villain all snickering and evil and then suddenly you reveal the tiny tricycle because she's a troll midget and cant use anything better. before anyone gets down my throat saying that's not politically correct, come on...if I had said she was a troll dwarf I would have gotten comments saying she was biracial. *rimshot*

If Gnorga's husband wanted to send Stanley to a place made of concrete and steel; where nothing grows maybe he should have picked a city that didn't have over a square mile of greenery in the middle of it, like Las Angles, Chicago, Houston, or literally any other big city in the US. And all that doesn't include all the cities in the world like, Tokyo, Beijing, or Moscow.

Why didn't Don Bluth just make a movie about the politics in this troll kingdom? Have a rebellion, have an uprising, and if you must have Stanley, just put him in the background. Maybe some other characters who aren't trolls stumble upon this kingdom and try to destroy it, but then find Stanley and decide he isn't worth killing. Why destroy this kingdom... because... the trolls are trying to destroy the world of wherever the protagonists are from. Probably they would be humans. You could make them kids, jut not THAT YOUNG. make them at least ten years older. Or maybe just seven, I don't know. Then we could see more of the world of the trolls. Also, the trolls should have been far more menacing not "I'm a bad troll" and "Have a rotten day" Or if you must, have Keith David say it or something.... Someone menacing. Have more of that Grime from the first three films of his.
So, Stanley is the reason The Last of Us happened?
Yes

"A dream... it's something you do for yourself, not for others" -Griffith
Sam Geuvenen
I don't think anyone is gonna be listening to Griffith talk about dreams.
Griffith, from Berserk, or some other kind od "Lord of the Rings"?
I think this movie was the start of me rooting for the villain when I was young.
Nick K Word, sometimes the bad guys are more entertaining and are better characters than the guy or girl that's meant to be the hero of the story. At least the actors that play villains try a little harder than the heroes, you know?
This might not be interesting, but I think people have forgotten why old school villains were so fun. Why the maniacal laughter and evil smiles and evil lairs existed. Evil power is something that requires wit, sacrifice (both of yourself and often others), and a LOT of work and planning. So, when they finally get the power they desired, the journey has driven them mad (or at least shaved off much of their morality), isolated them from all others, and given them a sense of joy.
I love maniacal laughter. Done well, it's all the feelings of happiness, joy, humor, and love twisted into sadistic or perverted shadows. It's a testament of achievement through loss. Terrifying and threatening.
Nick K Damn, that actually sounds pretty thorough. I think one of the villains that's been through the decay of morality and power hunger you mentioned that I can put my finger on is Kefka from Final Fantasy VI, since he had a bunch of magic stuff injected into him to make him a better soldier he lost his sanity and thus became more and more deranged as the game went along.
Reapermaskhybrid Ya. As a kid, I was one of the few people who looked at the villains as people that may be the ones in need of the most help. What made the Queen from Snow White so selfish? Why did Scar kill his brother? Were these things acctually justified in some way? And I also looked at Kefka too. How could one guy go so wrong? Kefka is the only one I can't figure out. Not because I don't understand him (that's fairly easy. He wants power to inflict his will). The problem is I have no clue what kind of person he was. The Magic experiments broke his mind, so we only see him after the break, so technically we never really meet the true Kefka. My theory is he was the Emperors own personal psychopath who only became worse after his power, But I can't say for certain because there's no story for him post-break.
Nick K At least with my own character Kageoni Shinigami he'd have SOME reason to hate his enemy Alicia Emberheart, that reason being her mother killed Kageoni's dad and leaving his people in some other dimension they had to spend years making into their image.
The death of Kageoni's dad left his mother, the most loyal of the former Demon Lord's concubines, in a bit of emotional distress and thus tried day and night to run the empire her husband left behind and had Kageoni spend his time learning how to use quite a lot of powerful spells and basic tactics on how to fight someone like Alicia (mostly by watching Earth TV shows that focused on magical girls).
It's through these teachings and overall hate mongering from his mom that Kageoni wants to destroy Alicia Emberheart and rule the world, that and avenge his father while finishing the old man's handiwork.

"Boy, Lindsay Lohan really let herself go, didn't she?" 🤣🤣🤣
Q:Stone him!
S:I don't think that I should be stone, I only said Jehovah.
Q:You're only making it worse for yourself!!
Making it worse? How could it be worse?
Jehovah! Jehovah!
*NO ONE SHALL BE STONED! UNTIL I BLOW THIS WHISTLE!* Even if they do say Jehovah!
*THROWS STONES*
Just like a Danny phantom episode at the end with all the plants
It's be great if the movie just became completely dark at the end
@@maxxgunner5573 The music is ok, certainly not Grammy winning, but better than say most modern day rap and pop tunes. Animation wise it is the worst of Don's films, but it still is passable pre-Toy Story era. Everything else, 100% agree with you.
It kind of did
True story; this movie came out when I was about 7-8 yrs old, and even then, I hated it, and KNEW Bluth was phoning it in. And I was a kid who could enjoy almost anything.
18:24 NO! NO! THAT DOES NOT HAPPEN, MOVIE, THAT JUST DOES NOT HAPPEN! Unless you, oh, I don't know...*EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!*
Nice reference
The plot is crappy but this animation is so beautiful! 😍 I understand it doesn't justify a horrible plot, but I personally think the animation is gorgeous. It reminds me of that one silly symphony with the dancing flowers and trees (albeit shorter and way better)
Walmart gave this movie 5/5. Wow
Well, it IS Walmart, soooo....
MetalSonicReject true...
Not cool :(
Christian Roberts Low prices, low standards!
I guess Walmart has no good taste, ay?
Holy shit... I'm...
Bored...
Falling...
Asleep...
Hey, there's food here! Must've just dreamed about food...
7 years later, and the line "Should've rented Iron Giant" still gets a laugh out of me. XD
I wanna see a reboot of this movie. I even have a way to fix the movie!
First off, give Stanley a more scary and menacing design, where it's more surprising that he loves flowers. Make it a big trial when he's found out, where the other trolls exile him to the land of humans, (not to Central Park specifically), where he eventually makes his way to Central Park Avenue. Make Gus more passive towards his father making all their decisions, (get rid of that big tantrum so it's more meaningful when he stands up for himself at the end), where he sneaks outta his room through the window with his sister. Eventually Rosie meets Stanley, where she's not terrified of him being so young and innocent, making Stanley show off his softer side knowing someone wasn't scared of him. Gus is terrified of Stanley, but warms up to him. Make it a bigger deal when Rosie is captured by Gnorga, cut out all of the annoying filler and give the film a more meaningful and dark tone. And for a meaningful ending, keep Stanley as a statue at the end, where the whole park grows more and more beautiful when Gus and Rosie come back to it.
In my opinion, this would make the film much better.
Barney the Dinosaur is definitely more entertaining than this film.... And that's saying a lot.
Well in my opinion, Winnie the Pooh is way more entertaining than this film.
According to my older sister I used to love barney when I was three I'm twenty now and don't remember barney much but i remember this pile of troll shit as a kid and honestly barney was much better despite me not remembering it much.
FUCK CARTOON TROLLS
Don Bluth was trying to give us visual Herpes with this movie
I think he was just trolling us. Get It?
Good one :)
Prince Stormstrider Get out
Don Bluth made me laugh with this, of how embarrasing it is. Plus, it is from the same writers who wrote All Dogs go to Heaven, Rock-A-Doodle, the Rugrats movies, Shrek 2, and the Smurfs movies
*plays small flute to summon an Oompa-Loompa*
This Is A BAD Movie! A Very BAD Movie!
there are movies worse than this movie
Chance Mckenzie I know, but this joke just felt right!
+Chance Mckenzie Ok how about the worst hand drawn movie
ThatGuy Orange even spongebob would not like this troll
@@The_PokeSaurus The Emoji movie: Hold my phone.
Foodfight: Hold my terrible food puns
Gary Goldman said the reason this movie wasn't successful was because of total lack of promotion and that Warner Bros had no faith in it. Well, can you blame them? How do you even promote something like this?
Amazing I remember when this first came out back then when Doug was in his late 20’s ._. God im old
We’re all old man.
@@magasoulshadow we can probably say, though we were there for some of the best years of old school, UA-cam reviewers
WTF, did Rosie go back to the future at 16:13?
Where she's going she doesn't need Road
SuperFlyGuyJohnnyP aw this is heavy
that.was.horrible. (the movie)
+Benjamin Aguilera It is scum.
+Brandon Roberts i wonder if he has even wached tentaculino, i mean, this is horrible, but still, an octo-puppy, mafia sharks, weird rats, and it was supposed to be a sequel to another shitty movie abou TITANIC, F#@KING TITANIC!
not just horrible, THEE wrost ever in 2D. Only Food Fight is wrose overall.
Are we related?
19:05 And this is how "The Last of Us" world was created
all because of a fucking 1ft troll dreamed for more flowers.....what an anticlimactic origin of why people are fungus monsters.....
11:44 Wasn't that the opening quote of the Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl? P.S. That movie is better than this movie.
The Canadian version takes place in Stanley Park with a Troll named Central.
DoctorVancouver wait really
Ruby Lin
No
The queen of the trolls needs a keyboard and mouse to raid the forums.
LMAO
I thought you were referring to a Yamaha keyboard with sound effects and all that haha. That works too, tho.
Oh hey, I remember this movie! It was playing in my dentist's office when I was younger. Except it was on when they made me pass out to take care of my teeth and I somehow remember it being an amazing and fun movie....Must've been the anesthesia....
Well, if this experience has taught me anything, it's that Duel of the Fates can make anything badass, even annoying singing trolls thumb-wrestling.
12:25 The way Stanley says "No way"
I remember when I was a kid I loved this film. Twenty years later, WHY THE HELL DID I LOVE THIS MOVIE??!?!!
Cuz it's a kids film
@Dio Brando I mean, Winx Club was pretty fun in the past, but then they kept dragging it for ages.
It's OK. I liked Teen Titans Go when it came out, now I'm like "OH GOD WHY!?"
@@kagevista3375 Same. But I wasn't a kid. I was 15
@@ScoutTrooperTK I was 10 when it came out lmao
this movie is like flowey the flower on every single drug in existence.
Agreed
No he would be more evil then he already is if he was on every drug. It's more like Barney if angry mothers sent letters saying the show was to inappropriate so they actually tried to make it more appropriate for baby's.
I think I prefer Flowey.
i don't think flowey would like to smoke his own kind
at least flowey has the redeeming quality of also being asriel - this movie has no redeeming qualities
12:02 Good God, Sharkboy and Lavagirl's concept of dreaming is better than that. They at least acknowledge that you have to make your dreams come true. JUST DO IT!
I think I have a theory for who this is intended for..... Depressed people. It's something harmless, happy, and Cheerful that people suffering from depression can watch and avoid being plunged into some really dark places during the film.
Danny Caracciolo reading too far into it
Well, there's one redeeming quality.
If I were depressed and watches this movie, I'd just get even more depressed because human beings can make something so awful.
That's actually rather sweet.
Huh... silver lining after all. When you literally can't take any more stress and negativity, there is something you can watch that might be fine(?)
Saying, "I love you," would be the perfect weird response to any insult now that I think about it.
"The oompa loompas could beat him up"
One day, I will use this as an insult
Even though the film is shit, you have to admit that the animation is stunning
