That little moment where Sarah flys alone in the sky, like her song in the first and how much Sjp says she loved flying
Someone in the movie was watching the first Hocus Pocus, now THAT was really cool
I would just like to point out you missed a costume callback. In the crowd of dancers, someone dressed as Madonna like Max's mom from the first film. It's only shown for a couple of seconds--- a blink and you'll miss it, but I thought it was worth mentioning.
“Amok Amok Amok Amok Amok Amok Amok Amok..-“
“STOP THAT!! DON’T Make Me Come OVER Ther With This Broom!”
The Madonna costume throwback and the house looking like Allison's.
But the drag queen love is a great NEW addition! They really know their audience because they're a famous drag act to recreate.
It must be said that young Winnie did an amazing job, Midler really hams it up in these movies and the young actress did an amazing job following her lead.
Oh yes!! I agree. I thought all three of the younger witches were so good at playing their respective adults!
They did an amazing job casting young Winifred
I think Taylor Henderson did a fabulous job as a young Winnie. She nailed down all the little quirks of Bette's character. I wish she would have gotten a little more screen time because she played the role so well. They did a great job at casting her.
I said the exact same thing! Just brilliant
Oh, she was awesome. I loved her as young Winifred.
Okay but can we talk about how the child actors for the sisters absolutely NAILED their roles? Absolutely iconic, beloved roles played by iconic, beloved actresses no less.
They really did do a great job
Did great
It’s like the three main actresses didn’t lose a step, very fun sequel. I absolutely loved it
Such a great sequel. Loved seeing Bette Midler and the others again after almost 30 years. Also love that the book was given more personality than the original. When it shed a tear at the end, that hit my heart.
I cried at at scene!!!!
@@sabrinamorris5615 that also made cry and in the original I was always thinking what the book really thinks of Winnie. And this one with the more personality confirms it. And their relashionship. And it went full circle. Amazing that Bette can still sing really well for being 76.
“My powers are nothing without my sisters.”
So if book didn't want to be evil, why did he show them the spell to turn Thackery into a cat?
@@angeliquetorres9978 The Book was definitely evil in the first movie. But Gilbert softened the book up over the last 29yrs. Gilbert’s goodness rubbed off on the book when they were making the new black candle.
i really love the callbacks in just the costumes themselves. There is a moment in the dance sequence where there is a woman dressed up as madonna which is a callback to when Max’s mom was Madonna for halloween
Yep, with a vampire for the dad
And someone was dressed like the band members from the OG as well
I noticed that.
Don’t forget the ladybug costume the school admin was wearing. There was a ladybug in the first movie I like to think that girl grew up and started working at the school and is still obsessed with lady bugs
Still haven’t spotted an Angel, but I’m sure there’s one in there somewhere
What about Billy shouting at Gilbert, "Oh stop! I am a GOOD zombie!"
I immediately caught that as Billy repeating Max's words from the first film where Max told Allison, "No, stop. He's a GOOD zombie." I just figured that Billy picked up from Max that the word zombie was what people would know him as and he would need to reassure them that he was good as Max did for Allison.
Wow well spotted ⭐️
I agree. I did appreciate the callback of the witches making a potion to look young and beautiful in the first movie, and this time in the modern world, they have makeup products for youth and beauty and they updated the mop and vacuum cleaner with Roombas and a Swiffer Mop. Billy, and the Sanderson sisters (both children and the originals) were the best part of this movie, by far. I wanted MORE of the Sanderson sisters as children and Winnie learning to master her power as a witch. The actress they chose to play young Winnie was a perfect choice...she was a very believable young Winifred.
I really enjoyed Hocus Pocus 2, seeing the original actors reprise their roles was just an absolute treat! and yes the callbacks to the first film was awesome i especially love that they brought Billy back to face the Sanderson sisters for a second time!!!
“What a fool to give up thy life for thy sister's” Winfred had ultimate power but was nothing without her sisters by her side. This was my favorite callback from the original. Her sisters are not bright but they are the only ones who know her and cheer her up. Winfred can be selfish but will gladly give her life to stay with them 🖤
You can tell the Bette, Sarah, and Kathy had so much fun being back in these roles. ❤
And they still look the same
A lot of people missed that the witch that gave the Sanderson sisters their book, is wearing a costume inspired by the witch costume that Dani wears in the first film. Definitely a intentional connection there.
I did notice that although I didn't really register
A witch didn’t give her the book. Allison said it was a gift from the devil himself.
@@andreamaria85 yes that's what Allison said that's how the legend went, but legend doesn't always reflect reality. This movie showed that it was a witch that gave her the book, she's even credited as such in the credits
@@andreamaria85 well in "AoT" Marley propos state the Devil gave Ymir the "Titan" ability, but readers and viewers know otherwise right?
Yea, plus they mentioned "Mother" in the first movie, just watched it again tonight and I had forgotten that they did. So it does make sense then.
Omggg definitely should have put one about how Sarah is the Guinea pig for the sisters. First movie they push Sarah in to the “black river” and in this one they put her into the magic wall that binds them 😂
Yes! Poor Sarah gets no respect from her older sisters!
Oh my gosh I completely forgot about that
Being the Youngest Sisters with also Two Older Sisters... Unfortunately it truly is a thing, where we are the Guinea Pigs lol.... My eldest Sister (Winifred's Position) used me to learn how to apply Make-Up and doing Hair into different styles, so she could get her Make-up and Hair perfect..... While the Middle Sister (Mary's Position) used me as your punch bag at times lol, obviously in play fights but still, she forgot how much stronger than me she was lol..... Think that's why I relate to Sarah so much in the two films, and yes I do also have those same types of Dizzy moments she has also lmfao
8:42 The way Mary just joyfully says “They hate mess!” makes me laugh 😂😂
This was a fun follow up to the original. The Sanderson Sisters were the highlight, as always, and I adored their rendition of "One Way or Another."
@ Brain-rape ice cream cones Exactly. I thought producers dropped the ball on their musical and dance choices. Really sucked.
Too nostalgic. It's not about comparing the first movie with this one. Just enjoy it because both have their charm. I loved Hocus Pocus 2 💜
Sucked sucked sucked bad
did you call a video about callbacks to the first movie "too nostalgic"
Seems to be an unpopular opinion but I liked it too. I felt like it’s completely different film. It’s not truly a sequel in your traditional sense. It’s like an add-on or really more like a love letter. It makes sense to me for the changes they made. It’s very difficult for a movie to be classic in the timeless sense, to not have “dated” references etc. If you don’t like this film, it’s simple, don’t watch it. I felt like it had a younger more fun vibe. It’s not scary, it’s light hearted and funny. It gives DCOM vibes, more like Halloweentown. Overall, I liked it. We laughed and had a fun time. Loved the references and fun put it in to this.
@@aval5098 Yes! People are being way to harsh on this movie I think it's a good add on its not meant to be a marvel endgame type of film. People should try and enjoy it as it is.
This comment is literally in every HP2 video, no matter what the context
I can hardly wait to see this movie. My boyfriend of 33 1/2 years passed from a stroke 4 years ago. This was one of our favorite movies. I'm sure HP2 will not disappoint. Especially with all the product placements. Swiffer Sweeper, Rumba cleaner, Walgreens and that is just from tbe trailer.
Condolences for your loss.
I enjoyed seeing billy again in this sequel and seeing him have fun during the festival and playing games. The songs the sisters sang were an absolute treat and were so catchy, I loved them!
If you look real close while the town is hypnotized and searching for the Mayor, you can see a woman dressed as “Madonna” and a man dressed as a Vampire another call back to the costumes the parents of Max and Danny wore to the costume party.
Although it would have been fun to see them adapt the sequel novel, which stars Max and Allison's daughter Poppy, I liked all these fun callbacks, as well as the new teen witches.
Agreed!!! I would almost like a spinoff of just that or a multiverse thing
Never know, there might be a third movie that connects this movie to the book.
There’s BOOKS why did I not know this
@@doyouhearthepeoplesing2 just one book....I think. The first part is rehash of the movie with some additions but 95% movie rehash.
YOUNG WINNIE IS INCREDIBLE!!
All of them actually. Ugh this whole movie is THE best! Like wow!
In the original movie, Billy didn't die when the witches died at the end, but in Hocus Pocus 2 he does die when the witches die. This means he remained alive in his grave for the last 29 years
Yes he literally states that in the film
I loved seeing Billy again.🧟♂️ He’s my favorite character from Hocus Pocus along with Sarah too.🥰
Same!
Same! I loved the young Billy at the beginning, trying even then to not involve himself with Winnie 😂 it was one kiss!!!
Maybe Binx had kittens when he was a cat and Cobweb is a descendant of his.
I think that you got a point there.
Surprise you didn't mention the outfits. I really appreciated the costume department in this film. The main girls outfits are reflective of the Sanderson sisters. Becca wears Winnies purple and green. Izzy is wearing brown plaid pants and oranges for Mary. Cassie is in pale pinks for Sarah. They also all wear the same necklace, forshadowing that they are a coven. Hecate the witch in the beginning, wears and outfit that matches Danis witch costume from the first movie.
I love the sequel, I enjoyed it. In the first one, the Sanderson Sisters get defeated by turning into stone & dust. But in the sequel, they turn into star dust at the end. Guess Winnie & her sisters have a redemption arc? 🤨 But after all, the movie was magical & amazing. It’s good to see them again.😊
I had no idea Bette Midler was in Oliver & Company as the voice of Georgette. Seeing her in Hocus Pocus, she’s so fun
WAIT WHAT?! SHE WAS GEORGETTE??? MIND. BLOWN!
Olivia Lee, me too, love watching my favorite star of all time, she's great
Oliver & Company was practically a who's who of singers.
I’m gonna watch the sequel tomorrow. I grew up with the first Hocus Pocus when I was a kid. I see it almost every Halloween.
I love how the roombas released them.
Best line ever: "Don't make me come over there with this broom." And upgrading the "rides" was another great comic moment -- the Swiffer and the Roombas. Too funny.
I love how they mention the spell for turning people into cats after they got the spellbook. It's a great callback and ties perfectly with the first movie 🎬 🥰
I have to be honest, I didn’t see Hocus Pocus when it was released or during my disney childhood. I first watched it in 2020 close to Halloween and I became a fan of it. I got excited for the sequel this year and I heart it
omg literally same!!
As a kid, I wasn't allowed to watch it
But, I first saw hocus pocus about 4 years ago
And loved it!
I love the sequel. I will never turn down a chance to see the Sanderson sisters.
It was ok, like 6 out of 10, the young Sanderson sisters and original Sanderson sisters especially young Winnie made the film. Some funny moments I enjoyed especially in walgreems and great to have Billy back. Would have preferred more of the original cast and better mystical musical numbers and no idea why most of the original cast weren’t even mentioned or very little connections, just felt like a wasted opportunity and could have been so much more .
I thought it was meh.... 3 out of 10. The nostalgic call backs were great but it was just lackluster to me.
I agree, it left me with an empty feeling.
@@darkssj3goku finally!! My friends who have seen it are raving about it! Idk if their love for the first blinded them with all of the nostalgia, seriously, it was not all that good.
I agree, it could have been better. I thought it turned out better than I expected and better than the book sequel that I couldn't finish.
I have to say, I came into this film with low expectations but was pleasantly surprised at how this film had the right amount of camp, fun and an unexpected amount of heart in the end.
I feel the same way. I enjoyed it immensely. The ending was so satisfying
This movie was more entertaining than I thought it would be. It had its awkward moments reminiscent of Disney's latest attempts and made for t.v. movies, but all in all, not bad.
I was a kid when the original aired. Watching Hocus Pocus has been a tradition for me every year. :)
Favorite parts: Mary's rumbas, and Sarah spreading herself out. Both had me cackling.
The young girl who played Winnie was excellent. She over-acted the part just enough to be brilliant. But I gotta say the Divine Miss M has, even more than the original movie, has perfected her Winnie! She was mad, bad and dangerous to have "hocus focused" on you!
One thing my husband missed and I thought was hilarious, probably because I use one, is the Swift Jet leaking its cleanser while the witches were flying. It when Winnie was threatening Sarah with coming over there with her broom when Sarah was singing "Amuck, amuck". It was probably just a throw away joke, but it was funny to me as mine leaks too!
When watching this movie with who is 6 already it just brought so many memories for me because in 3 wks (10/28) I will 36 myself. Her and I watch the first Hocus Pocus all year round together.
Don’t forget about when the Sanderson’s were chasing the three girls that there was a scene where a couple was watching the original movie on television. It happens so fast, I had to go back and rewind it.
There's also a callback to how Sarah and Mary died. They say bye the same way they did when they got exploded in the first when they faded away in this one.
Considering Gilbert says he went to their cottage and found the book we can presume he saw the kids in cages as it’d be difficult not to. Hard to believe he wouldn’t have notified someone or helped them get free himself if he saw them locked up.
And then you realize the book taught him how to make the black flame candle which was made from the "fat of a hanged man" and there's at least 2 confirmed candles so who did Gilbert hang to make the candles?
Woah. Mind. Blown.
Jay and Ernie are the black flame candles!
But seriously, I assumed Max and Allison rescued them later in the morning.
...but then they weren't in the sequel....
@@okhti_dov3424 …I forgot about that. In the modern world it would be pretty much impossible to get such an ingredient unless you procured it yourself. “Maybe” book had an alternative recipe… Damn, Disney hid a dark subplot. 😟
I don't think he would rescue them, they were probably the ones that stole his candy. I bet he got the book and left them there and when he got older got his revenge by turning them into the 2 black candles.
Damn than he killed Ernie cuz Ernie was kinda on the chubby side “Fat of a Hang man !”
It was great seeing the three main actress return
My favorite was the Garry and Penny Marshall call backs. Specifically the movie playing on the TV. I didn't even notice the costumes behind the mayor. Or the bartender dressed up in the skeleton outfit. Guess I have to watch it again.
I intentionally kept my expectations low because it's a sequel and sequels almost never recapture the magic of the original. And while that held true for this, I still enjoyed it. Kind of like watching Coming To America 2. It was more about the nostalgia than the movie, and I was perfectly happy with what I got.
I noticed a sneaky Easter egg from the movie not on here. In one of the scenes of the audiance dancing under the spell you can see a woman wearing a Madonna costume just like the mother in Hocus Pocus.
And Dadcula was right next to her
I noticed that too LOL
@@jujub4553 awsome
I can’t wait to watch this‼️
I’ll watch it tomorrow while I’m decorating my place. I love Fall and I LOVE THE ORIGINAL HOCUS POCUS MOVIE‼️🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
“YES SALEM, WE’RE BACK!!” - Winnifred ‘Winnie’ Sanderson, 2022 Disney+ Sequel!
When someone in the movie said 29 years ago I had to stop and count and I felt extra old 😮💨😂
the witches are back was so upbeat that it made want to dance and keep watching and the virgin joke was so funny its "someone that lights candles" and the one way or another song was such a good choice
The Witches are Back is on repeat for me
Don't forget when winie checks in a window to try and find the mayor you can see two boys laughing at a film which is the scene where Penny Marshall says "shove it satan" so that's a callback too (it's right after they split after the I'm gonna get ya song)
I loved HP2!
The beginning with the Young Sanderson Sisters, what a treat.
The return of Billy was fun.
The ending touched my heart and caused me to tear up.
I love the Sanderson Sisters.
Great that they pay tribute to Gary and Penny.
I loved when Sarah ride that Swiffer Mop Jet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dont forget Mary that surfboarding a pair of Roombas🤣🤣
I know some people don’t like the 2nd movie but I personally think the movie was a blast and the callbacks were on point. I think it was one of my favorite movies of 2022.
I’m already under their spell. I could dance all day
About that, there’s a lot of adult jokes that went over my head since I was a kid with various movies but this got me laughing
The question is when powerful spell is broken and Winnie went back to her sisters is the curse still alive ? Will they be back if the hocus pocus 3 was made ?
They should've added to the number one spot also when the original devil/wife scene was playing on the TV in the second movie! I loved it!!!
As shocking and funny it is, I can’t get over the “one kiss”
Ages of the original cast in the first and second movies; Bette Midler: 47 and 76. Kathy Najimy: 36 and 65. Sarah Jessica Parker: 28 and 57. Doug Jones: 33 and 62.
Hocus Pocus is my fave movie of all time and I’m very happy with the sequel 🥹
My daughter and niece loved the movie and I loved it. Every Halloween we watch Hocus pocus and now we'll add the second one. I was worried that they would over do it but it was great. I kind of want to see what they left out.
Hopefully they make it a trilogy. This film is the perfect set up for a final film and pretty much introduced the primary antagonist for the film: the witch that gave them the book in the first place. ThT way they can bring back the young version of the sisters and the rest of the original main cast.
Just have the original witch come back somehow and then these three girls need back so they summon the Sandersons who are bound to the actual witch in the group so they can’t harm anyone and so they help them out all the while Book tries to help release them for real. They momentarily break free from being bound to the young witch cause a little mayhem of their own and then they could basically put any ending they want. And yes I did use some ideas from unused scripts lol.
Actually when you think of it,it is implied that 'mother witch' is far more of an actual villian then the Sanderson sisters ever were.She outright hinted that she had eaten children before in 1653,and she might have been alive for centuries by doing such.
As far as we know the only true evil that the Sanderson sisters did is kill Emily Binx to restore their youth,and turn Thackery into a cat.
After that they were killed and remained dead for 300 yrs until 1993.They lived one night (halloween) and never managed to drain any children before they died again.
Same in 2022,they never killed anyone before dying the last time.
But apparently mother witch has actually lived through the past 350 plus years of time.
Imagine how many children she has to have killed in that time to stay alive for that long.
I think it would be great if for the third movie the new coven brought back the Sanderson sisters,but this time to aide in fighting mother witch.Gilbert can obviously help them with this task.
Also in the last movie they need to finally bring back an adult Dani,Max,and Allison.Max and Allison are likely married and have kids now.Their child being in danger of being consumed by mother witch could be a legit reason to have them join the fight.
And it might sound wierd but I could see them having Gilbert be Dani's love interest,seeing as they are around the same age and have a history with the Sanderson sisters.
I loved HP2 much more than I expected to… can’t wait for 3 and a
Prequel with those three little actresses, they were great!
And the “ MADONNA” dancer that recalls max mom on HP2
I LOVED THEM BOTH! Just now finished watching 2nd -- they stayed true to the first ! It was a nostalgic experience, what a film it turned out to be! If only projects like this were as good -- they say nothing ever beats a First of a franchise, but this was a great script turned into a movie!
You nailed it as you said We Fly!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Too funny. The way how they fly
I was very glad to see they paid tribute to the Marshalls. ❤
Really wish other original cast members had appeared but I adore the sisters return
I loved that Billy was just chilling alive in his gave for 30 years.
You forgot that Winifred Sandersons costume in HOCUS POCUS 2 is VERY different from the better looking one she wore in the 1st movie!
Love this HP movie 2022... It really shows that there is always GOOD in every every villainess hearts...
Absolutely Loooovvveddd the sequel, don't care what the haters say.....
Hoping for a 3rd one too and they should call it:
Hocus Pocus: third time's a charm
The only thing I did not like about this movie was the cat didn't talk 😒😒😒 I really thought Binx was back
It was a different cat tho.
@@chasehedges6775 Yeah I realized that when it meowed
after watchinf the first hocus pocus i asked my mum what a vitgin was,
she passed the question off to my nan
(also it bugged me that gilbert saw the cemetary events, all the children in salem were hypnotised and at the cottage
also winnie knowing one way or another in the og she heard the guy singing i put a spell on you and even shows her listening to it)
Omg the swiffer had me on the floor!!!🤣
There was 2 references to the older couple from the first movie, one is the one you mentioned, the other is when Winnie looked inside a window and 2 guys were watching that exact scene from Hocus Pocus 1.
The Roombas were 100% hilarious!!!!! Thumbsup!
I adored this film, my friend and I did a mini marathon. it was so great to watch the original and then this one straight after. the witches didn't miss a beat, it was fantastic to see such icon characters come back in a more modern time. just brilliant!!!!
You can never get enough of Hocus Pocus
Well when Mary and Sarah made a pudding for Winifred's birthday, it might be a reference when Winifred said:
"When the sun comes up, we're dust, toast, PUDDING!"
I read the novelized version Ernie and Jay were still alive. Jay became Principal of their school, and Ernie moved away and became a park ranger. But Jay was bitter since that day to Max for leaving the two there even though they did it to themselves.
Thanks for the information
I loved the second one and my wife laughed as I was like a child again 🤣. I don't care that my friends say it wasn't all that good. I thought it was fantastic and their acting was better than I thought. I even got my 15 year old to watch the first and second one and she loved it!
The more you love your decisions, the less you need others to love your decisions. ♡
I didn't even think that Walgreen's would be selling roombas-That would be something sold at Wal-Mart or some appliance store
The Sanderson Sisters looked cute together as kids
I honestly was impressed with the little actresses, they were on point especially little winnie. VERY AMAZING.
Why couldn’t they make sure the one sister spoke out of the same side of her mouth in both movies. Such a simple thing to mess up on.
Thank you. I loved watching your video. I watched the first movie again a few days ago and finished #2 today. I love Bette Midler. She's an awesome actress! Great movies!
puts a spell on you
I recognise that they are outfits in the second movie. If you look closely, you can tell that Sarah‘s outfit is more sparkly on her corset. Winnies is more light green with bats on her dress and Mary’s dress doesn’t have the see-through top that she had in the original it’s just one block colour and less sparkly.
The Sanderson Sisters rock!
Wish we couldve seen max, dani and alison again
This sequel was mint! Looking forward to the next one ❤
Except it was said that the book was given to Winnie by the devil himself, not another witch. And they had a mother who made them scorpion pie. I wish they would've had ernie and Jay working in a gas station or something, then maybe had a another cameo with Dani, max, and Allison as adults.
👦 What's a Virgin?
👮 Australia Airlines!
I loved this movie. They did a really good job with the way the story went
I love both Hocus Pocus and Hocus Pocus 2 they are both really good I grew up with Hocus Pocus and I have One Way Or Another stuck in my head
And when the witches are flying around trying to find the mayor, one of them is looking through a living room window where you see 2 dudes watching the first hocus pocus movie
I loved the sequel!!! Great character arcs and callbacks
