They told us what the prank was in the song whenever they were in their hideout it was to get the cookbook and give her a cupcake that turns her into a beast
She missed that unless it's in the extended version of the reaction?
It seems like everybody is missing this. Of course we wont see it when Red and Chloe travel back in time because they stopped the prank, but we saw what would have happened/ did in the original timeline.
What if the prank was turning her into a monster which is her evil self?
There's literally at least 2 points in the movie where the prank is described, lol. At Auradon during the coup and during Uliana's song where they literally show the intended prank through imagery.
It doesn’t make any sense though
It was just revealed that Descendants: The Rise of Red broke the audience record on Disney+, so it more than confirmed that we will have a trilogy of this new franchise 🥳🥳🥳🥳
And ppl really thought it was gonna flop lmao I knew it wasn’t, it’s literally descendants 😭 so excited for descendants 5 🥳
Ngl I don’t think morgies character is done yet. Maybe messing with time would bring him into the future. 🤷
Glad to hear
For just dcoms or in general
It surpassed the eras tour apparently
@@tylerconnelly5142 I think almost none of them, since we don't know how really happened what turned Bridget into the queen of hearts, since we saw that the magic cookbook was enchanted to not fall into the wrong hands, so how does it happen what happens to Bridget in the ball, that still has to be told, I think that in future movies they will show us everything again but this time without Red and Chloe intervening to find out what really happened and to be able to correct or fix it in some way without affecting the timeline
Putting Brandy and Paolo in the movie was one of the best decisions Disney ever made
Wouldn’t go that far. I didn’t even know Brandy’s Cinderella and Paolo’s Prince Charming existed at first I was fuming cos I thought it was a tick box and that bs
@@Nathan-W Wait until you see Paolo's Prince Charming's parents, Whoopi Goldberg and Victor Garber. (Lots of viewers have been saying Chad takes after his grandfather.)
AGREED
@@Nathan-Wwell that’s you, many others know of Brandy’s Cinderella, it was actually an iconic movie (actually iconic not TikTok iconic) Brandy is also a known celebrity. Not being rude but just because you didn’t know her doesn’t mean many others don’t.
FR
Nah, the ship should totally sail. Chloe and Red would be iconic.
I started shipping them the moment after they sang “the fight of our lives” 😂
yes! I thought it was just me!!!!!!
Yes they would be so cute together ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
yeah, when the queen of hearts said “love ain’t it”, I kinda assumed red would have a love interest in this movie
glassheart unite :D
"Jaladdin? I'm not calling you that. That's a crime." Thank you! I was like "WTF?" when I saw them and heard that.
I love how, every reaction I've seen to that scene is basically the same (including my own).
"Call us Jaladdin"
Everyone: No
Yes, Rebecca! Brandy, the woman who plays Cinderella in this movie, also played Cinderella in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella (1997). It’s my personal favorite Cinderella movie.
And brandy was the First black Cinderella with Whitney Houston playing the fairy godmother and Whoopi Goldberg playing Prince Charming’s mother
Imo I preferred the original Cinderella mainly cos I never even knew Brandy’s Cinderella existed before anyone calls me racist
@@Nathan-W a lot of people didn’t know the brandy Cinderella until recently
@@mikelinley4491 ye so you’ll see a lot of ppl criticising it calling it a tickbox when I first saw it I went on a rant in comments and saying stuff like “what would you do if they turned Jasmine and Aladdin into white ppl”
@@Nathan-W I see what you saying 👍
Oh I know Chad tormented Chloe growing up she's so goody goody
Are we not gonna talk about how Bridget accent just completely changed? Evil made her British?
Pshaw, everyone knows all the evillest people are british.
Evie and Mal had a great friendship as leads. Chloe and Red should definitely be girlfriends in the next one
Agree! They were so giving off enemies to lovers vibes! 😍
girl, they literally said they were gonna turn bridget into a monster and before traveling back in time she said they turned her into a monster, that's the prank
Show don't tell
sure, give youtube the feature to put pictures in the comments and i'll show you
@@ihatetheheat4524 girl, just rewatch the Perfect Revenge music video
@ihatetheheat4524 They did show... during the revenge song it shows it
How tho, they wouldn't have been able to get the book to do the prank either way
I think a lot of people don’t realize the plot twist. In BOTH timelines, Merlin’s ALWAYS had his spell book safeguarded, so Uliana and her friends will have always been made frozen, which stopped them from doing the prank.
But because Chloe and Red were there to kind of take possession of the book, and it causing the future to be changed, we can infer that they UNKNOWINGLY stopped this mysterious person from taking the book in the short time between the future villains being frozen and Merlin arriving.
We also learned that only someone “good” could actually open the book. We will probably find out who actually pranked Bridget in part 2.
Yes Rebecca, it's already being rumored that this movie was only part 1 of the pocketwatch saga and it's definitely true that the real pranker was not Uliana otherwise it was a plot hole but the writers know what they're doing so it's trustful...we're gonna see more of that on Descendants 5 including the castlecoming and the prank that's what I'm hoping for ever since we was being informed today that this movie broke records of viewers, we are just waiting for the green light to go forward...as Uma said in the end, they messed with the fabric of time and the infamous: "You didn't think this was the end of the story, did you?" moment...Kylie already confirmed it in an interview along with the actresses who played Ella confirmed on a live
Right.
The prank the turned her into a literal green monster but I thought the monster was like they made cupcakes and make it seem that Bridget made poisonous cupcakes which would make the whole school hate her which is everything she didn’t want, hence why she was a monster. Also people have been theorizing that it was actually Ella that pranked or help prank Bridget I would like them to go back in time and see what happens with that book
yes since bridget is mad at ella, maybe they talked her into opening the book cause it would freeze them when they try to open it
I think people still forget that Bridget hated Ella due to her just running off with Prince Charming and "abandoning" her, like she felt betrayed that Ella her only friend, chose the man she said she "hated" (due to him being a royal) instead of going to her and helping her in the time of her need, but of course, the plot hole of how did Uliana use the book if it'll permafreeze them is still the biggest question in this movie, so we just gotta wait for the other movies i guess
@@LorielSaysHi In regards to the book freezing them, remember that Morgie, son of Morgana, was not frozen and has magic of his own. Between Uliana's tentacles, Maleficent's magic, and Hades's fire, I doubt the security owl would have gotten away, meaning Merlin wouldn't have gone to the office until the next morning, giving Morgie time to undo the freezing spell. Then Uliana would just have to find someone else to open the book for her and she'd be able to make her prank cupcake.
29:50 descendants was designed from day 1 to be a cinematic universe and there’s like 50 kingdoms we haven’t explored yet I wanna explore them all damnit
The girl who plays Red’s name is Kylie Cantrall and she also was in high school musical the musical the series, she played the girlfriend of the tv star guy in season 4
She was also in Gabby Duran and the Unsittables! I liked that show, but I like weird alien stuff, so.
she's such a great singer, i love her original songs a lot
"I'm concerned they're going to bleed this series dry." As much fun as I have with Descendants, I've always assumed they're gonna milk this cash cow until it's dead.
I mean…the Disney universe is so huge. I always assumed they were going to add new characters into the franchise.
Strap in. We're going of the "they made ripples in space time by changing the past" thing right? Uliana and them would have probably figured out they cant open the book and need someone good to do it, and so they bully Ella into opening the book, they make the monster cake and so Ella sticks to Bridget at the dance but then she sees charming right? And bridget's like "go!" and while Ella is off with Charming, Bridget gets humiliated and then Ella arrives after the fact and Uliana reveals they could never have done it without her, and yeah thats just off the top of my head so not so much "Ella did it" but more so of she had a part in this very cruel prank on a very nice sweet girl who wasnt socialized until very recently, and she, even as a grown woman, is quick to say "oh it was just a prank" "let the past be", cause there's literally no other way that bridget would become what she did unless that happened. Like your only friend in high school after you've been homeschooled your whole life turn out to be the one directly responsible for the most humiliating moment of your life? But EVERYTHING Red did had ripples, so instead of Uliana (who we can assume is well versed in magic) figuring out about the spellbook's freezing hex, she just had to gloat over her victory (as villians do) which led to her downfall, and the current timeline.
I dont understand why everyone is saying mal would not exist becuase Hades and Malificent are frozen. Merlin found them so he would unfreeze them, all they had was detention.
i did not know Joshua Colley was in this movie 😭😭 i only recognized him from Dead Boy Detectives
Same, I had to do a double take lol
he's also in a movie senior year i think it's called, and he's great there too
What bugs me about the movie is it never revealed what happened between Bridget and Ella…
And wow Rebecca was so right about the cookbook plothole. How would’ve the VKs been able to use the book for their prank if the book automatically detects ‘bad people’ thus making them freeze🤔
IM SO ON BOARD WITH A QUEER STORYLINE FOR RED AND CHLOE😍
They did reveal it though: Bridget was upset that Ella was too involved with Charming when the prank happened and felt abandoned by her only friend. Also, it's not really a plot hole because we don't know how Uliana's gang originally went about their plans. We've seen the altered version that came about because of Red and Chloe's interference.
Stuff like this is why time travel sucks because it opens up a ton of variables, and since we as an audience didn't actually experience the "original" situations, every thing becomes speculation.
The prank was shown in Revenge Party when the cauldron was lit by Hades, but I think the next movie will involve the real prankster and the effects of time travel.
Yes Brandy played Cinderella in 1997
I’m so glad you see the potential in Chloe and Red being a thing❤💙
I was enjoying myself for like 2/3rds of the movie. When the plot started plotting towards the end i knew it wasn't going to end good. Ppl shouldn't defend the rushed ending/plot holes in the fact that a second part is coming, movies should be able to be stand-alones even if they are part of a series. Like literally the previous descendants movies didnt feel this forced for a sequel😒
Ps. I thought it would have ended with them going back and seeing nothing changed so then they will need to head back which will be a good ending for a sequel but, i guess they wanted a happy ending although that kind of ruins the story here if the same story is going to be developed in the second part😅we'll see i guess
@@miraeshin8652 exactly what I've been saying!!!! this movie stopped being good the moment they travelled back to the past cause the plot holes were plotholing fr. theres no depth no chemistry no sense to this movie AT ALL if you sit down to think about it for more than a minute. such a waste of all that budget
@lilbrownbear yeah time travel is a tricky plot device that isn't easy to pull off especially while they're rushing through their story🙃
@@miraeshin8652 true. imo they should've done this time travel plot in the sequel once they had these characters established. the idea was there but execution was terrible. if they had just kept the continuity from the previous movies in check they could've done a far better job
Apparently it isn’t a happy ending tho because uma said whatever Chloe and red did they will have to suffer the consequences of their actions which means red can’t change her mom from being a tyrant she has to stay abusive and red needs to get used to it
I had the exact same thought when I first watched this movie that Red and Chloe should totally become a couple! I was even getting the vibe that it could happen and that it would make sense, but knowing disney it's not gonna happen and that makes me sad :(
Yeah the ending wss rushed and bad but apparently it's meant to be a 2 parter so 5 is gonna come
"I'm sure I'm fine" famous last words
Rebecca having her dumb pooter moment with not realising the prank
they did show you the prank its explaned in the song ulyianna sings its about the cupcake thing
To be fair, was that the prank. Because of the safeguard on Merlin’s book, Uliana and her friends would’ve been made frozen either way. The only reason the future changed was due to Chloe and Red taking possession of the book and basically unknowingly stopping a mystery person from taking the book.
So we never actually learn what the prank was. Whether it was the same prank or something different
10:42 she dosent say “woah” she actually says “war” i heard that to!
With an added 30 mins of dialogue, this could’ve easily became my favorite Descendants movie (the originals will always have a special place in my heart though). The 30 mins would give us time to actually see the ball, and everything play out. They probably don’t think it was needed. They never showed why Bridget thought Cinderella was fake. Did she not help her after being turn into a monster? Did she just say get over it? The ending just like it was rushed.
How did Uliana pull the prank in the original timeline if it was enchanted so that evil intention couldn’t read the book? Chloe and Red could have done nothing and it would have ended the same.
@@everydaybuddyfighter1711 stop thinking about it. this movie is full of plot holes
It didn’t, they altered the past by messing up, they broke a lot of things and messed with a lot of things they would have not happened in the past. This is only part 1
Because it wasn’t her who pulled the most prank
I couldnt believe this movie was real 😂
Apparently, this is the first of a two-part movie. I was also puzzled why they built up this big prank that literally changed the Queen of Hearts entire personality and made this sugar-coated bubble of effervescent cotton candy into this angry and vengeful Queen. Apparently, when the girls played with the fabric of time, they made some rather unexpected changes and there will be consequences to that. I don't think her Mom is truly all good now. Her dress was only partially white and her hair was still red, when it was cotton candy pink in the past, before the prank. Maybe they will show us the prank in the second part of the movie and we can see what all the fuss is about.
6:15 Yes, that's Brandy, who played Cinderella in the Rodger's and Hammerstein's Cinderella from 1997, and that is also the actor who played the prince in the same movie.
A song about the nuances of morality is quite unique
yes the girl that plays Cinderella in descendants the rise of red is in one of the original Cinderella movie
No, that room where the dance fight with the armors happens is a hallway room, this room is the office at the beginning, where the Fairy Godmother and Uma were
They said “you turned me into a monster” then showed the spell during perfect revenge turning someone into an ogre (monster). But I think they messed up charming and Cinderella meeting.. remember they said “we met at the dance”
I'm pretty sure they said they fell in love at the dance not that they met there
The songs here are awesome. Uma's sister song and when Red and her mother are singing in the car!!! This song is slaying.
Couldn’t have clicked this faster😂
agreed
Agreed
they weren't trying to bring Thomas back necessarily, Joshua who plays hook has stated in previous interviews that he did take inspiration from Thomas but he was also still trying to make it his own because, this is captain hook as a teen, not harry, its his father.
When I watched this, I totally expected that Cinderella was the one who did the prank against the queen of hearts. The tension between them. Cinderella’s constant justification of “it was just a stupid prank” and the line of the queen of hearts that they are all back stabbers. So I honestly was shocked when it wasn’t Cinderella.
Also, I predict that in the next movie it will be revealed that Cinderella and Prince Charming aren’t married or they don’t love each other. It’s because Red and Chloe got Ella grounded in the past which in turn would cause her to miss the dance. The dance where Prince Charming and Cinderella first danced and fell in love. Idk. Would be interesting.
I think she did go to the dance. The young fairy godmother probably learned how to do it in the heat of the moment. I mean it is the same plot as the original movie. Or atleast a similar one
@@emtgt0217 gotcha. That makes sense to me. :)
Yesssss 🤩 I just watched this movie with my brother as soon as it released on streaming and now I’m back in my descendants phase
It said it about 3 times, at the dance she was turned into a green monster
"Perfect Revenge" is my favorite song in the movie.
Fun Fact: The person who played Chloe acually did her own stunts!
I'ma be honest, I really hope the actor for Chad comes back in the next movie because I wanna see some funny interactions with his baby sister.
I believe this movie was intended to not rewrite, but re-imagine a franchise for a newer audience. I mean I’m 23 year olds now and the first movies came out when I was in middle school. So there’s a brand new generation who would probably like descendants so it’s cool that they will have their own well also having the OG to look back on.
I agree with the LGBTQ+ take. I need these two to be a couple and I shipped them so hard in the movie, I was hoping for Red to find love through Chloe (especially after her song about wanting love)
28:22 we did see the prank, well what they planned as the pranks, in the villain song while they were singing and giving suggestions on how revenge. And they decided to get the book, make her a cupcake- and basically turn her into a green “monster” or something
China wasn’t acting during the tribute of Carlos, that was genuine emotion
14:20 Sooo many people actually ship them, INCLUDING the actresses (and me)
Awesome reaction of my favorite Descendants movie!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
Yes, Brandy was in the Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Cinderella (1997)
They showed what the prank would be in perfect revenge
If you paid attention the prank was an evil cupcake that was made that they gave Bridget which turned her into a monster. That is why Uliana wanted the cookbook.
OMG HEARTLESS MENTIONED! same bestie, i consider it canon and idk if im overhyping but it's my favorite book ever like ever
9:42-9:50 omg i love her music and sounds amazing all the time
In my head Hook and Morgie are 🌈🏳️🌈
And Harry is their son
@@MariaStar64 YUP
I think they originally confirmed that but Disney didn't want them to do that because of course they didn't.
@@JosiahRobert14 it's Disney plus tho. And Disney has been doing better with that kinda stuff (not great) but better. Hopefully in D5 it'll be confirmed
Hopefully. They greenlit two movies back in 2022 so hopefully a lot got moved to the second half.
Girl-you’re upsetting me greatly. 😂😂 You’ve NEVER watched Whitney Houston’s Cinderella? You on Disney+ girl! 😂😂 They are the most iconic Cinderella couple they have an absolutely banger movie. They were culturally diverse before Hollywood even knew what that word meant. They made that popular and NO ONE will ever do what they did successfully. Like Amazon Cinderella is literally a Whitney Houston Cinderella knockoff.
They explains the whole prank in the villain song. Also the whole point of the movie was to stop the prank from happening all together so of course we don’t get to see the prank.
the prank as turning her into a monster with a cupcake and ella wasn't there to help her because ella was dancing with charming and she snap like its
YEah!!! Brandy was THE THIG back in that day and did not do it alone, she played Cinderella with Whitney houston as the fairy and woppie goldbert as the mom of the prince!!!! it is still my favorite Cinderella! loved it and Whitney Houston... no works!!
They did show how they Pranked her in the song with the villains it showed the book and the prank they’re gonna turn her how the queen of Snow White when she was a witch like how they did in the last movie
Also Disney did have a gay couple in a tv show in Andi Mack
I'm soo happy Disney had bring back Brady for Cinderella since she is an original Cinderella too. It's one of my favorite versions of Cinderella. And so many other people love Brandy's version of Cinderella. I've also seen other youtuber's reactions to d4 like billy binges and he loves the fact they bring back Brady.
I think the whole reason there were plot holes and the ending felt rushed is because they are setting it up for a sequel so I think they did it on purpose to make us get curious and excited for the next movie
19:05 I think we can all agree - whether or not we like the movies or shows Thomas Doherty has been in, there's no doubt that he himself delivers. Whatever the problems with the final result might be it's not for lack of dedication on his part.
they turned bridget into a monster on her first dance
i think the guy who was playing hook was supposed to harry’s dad, not harry himself. and that’s why he’s acting like him. harry gets his flair from his dad
13:59 I agree, when the queen of hearts said “love ain’t it”, I kinda assumed red would have a love interest in this movie but she didn’t
The fact as well the scene w/ UMA at the start you could just tell those were China’s real tears😭😭😭
Also YES Brandy played Cinderella back in 1997 and the actor playing Charming also played him in that same movie!!
Also also i’ll stand by that Rita Ora DEVOURED
I really think this is going to be a new trilogy of descendants and different from the other films that had different stories. This story will be divided into three films. And I think the prank that what they did with Bridget will be shown and I also think that Ella was involved in it. Kisses from Brazil ❤🇧🇷
17:27 WHY DO ALL THE COMMENTERS KEEP SKIPPING PRINCE CHARMINGS’ PART IN THE SONG!??????? It was literally the best part of the whole movie!😫😩😭
6:13-6:20 yea, she did back in 97’. i can’t remember much from it tho
The scene in knight falls looked lore like a hallway
Brandy played in the Roger’s and Hammerstein version of Cinderella years ago with Whitney Houston. So she’s one of the original cinderellas. It may have been the first live action
I watched this the night it came out. And yes the actress and actor who play Cinderella and king charming are who played Cinderella and Prince Charming from the Rodgers & Hammerstein Cinderella! It’s a good movie but nothing will beat the first descendants movie. I do love the time travel aspect of the movie! With the way they ended it with zooming in on uma I’m hoping that they don’t make her evil again bc we’ve been there been that already. That’s if they even make another one to begin with. My favorite character from this is the pink happy kind Bridget from the past when she was a teen.
THEY SAID THE PRANK! THEY TURNED HER INTO A MONSTER!
I feel like Ella was being suspicious and I thought she was going to end up being to one who pranked Bridget, which makes sense with the spell on the book and the fact that Bridget in the future is mad at the good guys not at the villains who bullied her anyway. Like the way Cinderella says "it was just a prank" feels like she's defending herself. The movie wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it didn't hit as hard as the first 3
19:17 I guess pond water doesn't feel so nice to sea witches - different kind of water entirely.
there’s so many little cuts and references to jasmine and aladdin i highly believe that their child will be a main character next movie
Gurl the time travel machine only bring you to a place that will give you what your heart desire the most 😂 It's not something they can use 728288 times in a row to fix small events
"It's not mot hitting the same..." Gurl it's better than all the other ones. 😂
all imma say is rita ora CARRIED this movie and the only saving grace was the cgi. rest is borderline tolerable
I NEVER until this day knew that “ain’t” was associated with British vocabulary because I’ve only ever heard the word come out of an American’s mouth😭😭 Would not have expected British people to use the word tbh
27:05 they did twice u just didn’t pay attention also it’s a two parter
I love how they brought back cinderella and charming from the 1997 Cinderella
18:50-18:58 u got it right, that’s his name
This one kinda seems less cheesy and I’m here for it. honestly so happy to see more of the other characters finally getting the spotlight. It’s called Descendants for a reason. It’s showing you different characters and I’m so glad for it. Hope to see Alice in the next one maybe.
I’m the song “Sweet Revenge” it shows that the prank was gonna be turning Bridgette into a monster using a cupcake
13:59-14:07 same! they really missed out on gay relationships with Jay and Gil, Harry and Ben. even Mal and Evie had a lot of chemistry
If I had to guess, something's gonna go wrong in the aftermath, and we'll figure out what Ella had to do with the prank. If I had to guess, she was forced into being part of it.
When what's my name was played and Uma started to dance to it I screamed! OMG. Honestly I wish there was more Uma in this movie. She is so awesome. Charming the sassiness.
You need to watch the whole movie but the prank is that they got into the cookbook and turn her into a monster I think
She watched the full movie-
14:21 honestly I’ve shipped Mal with Evie, harry, Uma and Audrey (dk how that happened 😂😂) , I’ve shipped. I could probs also think quite a few more ngl but honestly I just ship anyone together tho 😂😂
Rebecca girly they did tell us the prank two-time actually first at the confrontation between the queen of hearts and Cinderella and second at uliana revenge song
They showed us and mentioned the prank several times..someone gave her a cupcake that turned her into a monster. The problem was that uliana couldn't have done since they couldn't use the book
How did uliana use the book in the original timeline? Maby someone else pranked like her like Ella
