9:25 fun fact, it's bad to put your chopsticks standing up in a bowl of rice, because it resembles the incense they use at funerals. whatever researchers they hired were really bad at their jobs. also, that rice is clearly uncooked.
perhaps it could be a foreshadowing that his sensei is gonna die in the dojo and the location of where the uncooked rice hit Ryan is where the bullet was fired.
If you told me that you watched a movie where Ryan from High School Musical beat up a property brother in the midst of his journey to be come dancing ninja I would assume it was a fever dream
It’s like this movie couldn’t decide between being a disney flick, horny white boy movie, or a really racially-insensitive kung fu knock-off. Props to whatever ungodly trixter brought this idea to Earth
ofc its a white girl commenting on the racist bit, like obviously that shit is racist but let the minority groups being affected speak for themselves instead of all these white people with a mind boggling savior and godly complex come flooding to the comment section to point it out. just a thought. and idgaf that this comment is three years old, this is something that's bothered me for a while and i needed to get it off my chest.

zimzalatte exactly. i tried to put it in google translate but it literally doesnt even make up anything. i also translated “ninja tryouts today” and it is no where near what it says lol 😂
Yeah i assumed it was China and then I saw the Hangul everywhere and the guy was talking about ninjas and geisha and wtf.. I guess they weren't kidding when they said "somewhere in Asia" lmao.. He lives in an amalgamation of China, Korea and Japan apparently. Honestly it doesn't only come across as lazy but also really rude to treat it like every culture from Asia are all basically the same thing and can be interchanged randomly. sigh. I also don't understand why the main actor couldn't be an Asian person.. we so rarely see it in western media and the actor being white really has no baring on the story anyway... they didn't have to do it.

I really hope that one day there is a push to hold these types of depictions accountable for the assaults, attacks, and prejudice towards Asian women. This movie as a whole, and any movie that usually depicts a white hero in an Asian country usually is centered around just dog shitting on Asian culture…and I can’t even imagine being Asian and seeing that terrible depiction everywhere. I remember the terrible ways kids would tease Asian students, and I know most of it comes from these types of movies. Thank you for your comment, as much as I love kurtis, sometimes I wish he would give deeper takes when there’s so much disgusting shit involved in a movie or whatever it is he’s talking about.
The fact that these sort of movies are made for kids, maybe teens, just, dear lord, what even is the thought processes behind this? Writers for these sort of kid/ teen movies can tell any story, literally anything else, but they keep doing racist crap over and over? Who greenlights this sort of trash?
kurtis PLEASE review the adventures of food boy, it also stars high school musical ryan and it is by far the worst movie ever made, it includes iconic scenes like the one where he cry’s alone in a bathroom after he shoots bread out of his hands. truly a cinematic masterpiece
* raised somewhere in Asia since a baby by Asian parents * - *has American accent* - *dresses American* - *seems to not understand anything about Asian culture* makes sense.
I was raised in Vietnam by white parents but I am Vietnamese. My parents even tho they lived there for years don’t speak Vietnamese. I don’t know anything about Vietnamese culture. Where I live in Vietnam everyone dresses in jeans and t shirts “American” like. I have an American accent and don’t speak Vietnamese. It’s a bit confusing but it’s a way of life.
Dude 🤦🏻♀️ even the rice bowl with the chopsticks sticking straight up is offensive, it’s like they went out of their way to use every problematic stereotype or misinterpretation of Japanese culture

Omg, I saw this movie playing in the children's section of a massive ferry while I was on a school trip. It was the most hilarious journey I've experienced. Whoever was in charge of the movies must have had a DVD player and a stack of DVDs in the control room, but they didn't have a remote control. So they'd put in a typical children's movie, like Ice Age, and fiddle around with the buttons on the machine, going up, down, left right for about 10 minutes without finding the play button, then they'd give up and move on to the next DVD. Dancing Ninja was the only one that finally worked, and by that time we were already almost dead from laughter from just watching the helpless struggle with the DVD machine. Then witnessing this weird-ass film that is most definitely NOT a children's film being broadcast on a public ferry was tbh the highlight of the school trip, and remains an iconic moment of my school history.
I think it’s hilarious that who you first saw “Ryan“ as in a movie severely changes how you see this movie. Because I saw him in food boy before HSM, so I will never see him as anything but food boy.
TheBaronOfNothing the actor himself is not gay. Although the director of High School Musical recently revealed that his character Ryan was gay all along. It feels a bit like JK Rowling to me though.
@@sherlock7898 uh... I don't see how that's comparable to Rowling at all. Ryan was super effeminate. I would honestly be more surprised if they tried to say they didn't intend for him to be gay.
Author Cassie Beebe I think it’s not very brave to say it years after the fact but not to mention anything at the time to make sure you get those Disney bucks.
17:21 What do ya mean? Hasselhoff is well known for his cover of hooked on a feeling, they didn't need another reason to put it in the movie. It was just permanently embedded in early 2000s culture.
6:49 kurtis doesn’t know his hsm lore. in that song, _ryan_ was encouraging one of the _jocks_ to dance, chad, who was convinced that _he_ couldn’t dance.
Misogyny? Asian stereotypes yes. Sexualization of women also yes. This movie is horrible and wrong. But this isn't really misogyny. Misos means hate in greek. There isnt hate or prejudice here against women. There is though sexualisation which is completely wrong and creepy. Just lets not use the other word so freely. There is real misogyny out there and its a far bigger problem so using that word casually is damaging to real cases of misogyny
@@wendynerd1199 Yikes. You are one of those types. Nevermind. Now as a greek I think I know better what a word originating from my country and its language means regardless of what's between our legs. But that being said Its not like you would be willing to listen.
@@Enel97 Actually, Wendy is kinda right. Since the movie does feature prejudice against women (the idea that women pretty much only exist to fuck dudes in the movie) and is therefore misogyny. And if we're reaching here, it does kinda get to the level of sexual objectification which is also misogyny.
Although the translation in the movie was wrong since they said it said "ninja tryouts today" despite it actually translating to "recruitment of new members" - it's hilarious that the word "ninja" isn't even in the sign but they say it is.
The fact that the movie is set "Somewhere in Asia," has Japanese characters, uses Japanese culture (ninja), but has a mix of Korean- and Chinese-style settings and uses a mixture of Korean and Japanese language for all of the writings tells me all that I need to know about it.

This movie as a whole, and any movie that usually depicts a white hero in an Asian country usually is centered around just dog shitting on Asian culture…and I can’t even imagine being Asian and seeing that terrible depiction everywhere. I remember the terrible ways kids would tease Asian students, and I know most of it comes from these types of movies. Thank you for your comment, as much as I love kurtis, sometimes I wish he would give deeper takes when there’s so much disgusting shit involved in a movie or whatever it is he’s talking about.
The fact that these sort of movies are made for kids, maybe teens, just, dear lord, what even is the thought processes behind this? Writers for these sort of kid/ teen movies can tell any story, literally anything else, but they keep doing racist crap over and over? Who greenlights this sort of trash?
I'm so tired of the hypersexualisation of women's bodies, I'm so tired
Wild that that's what made you realise this.
kurtis PLEASE review the adventures of food boy, it also stars high school musical ryan and it is by far the worst movie ever made, it includes iconic scenes like the one where he cry’s alone in a bathroom after he shoots bread out of his hands. truly a cinematic masterpiece
Honestly that’s what I thought this was for some reason. I’ve only seen him in HSM and Switched at Birth
poor Ryan. Sharpay keeps stealing all the good roles in movies:(
I remember watching that movie when i was around 10 thinking it was the shit
Food Boy was a guilty pleasure tbh✨
Lmao I wanted to comment this as well, a WILD RIDE
"because he doesnt want his face to get renovated by one of the property brothers" 😂
Kurtis I will stop at nothing to make sure you know about this gem called *food boy* the most cinematic and genius film ever created
Ps it also has our lord Ryan from hsm
@@maggiecarlson8244 mhm best movie ever
Please kurtis watch that movie
OMG YES YES YES
i loved that movie when i was like 10

ok i LOST IT when one of the actors was a property brother... like WHAT IS THIS MOVIE LMFAO
WAIT when

was he having a midlife crisis or something?
this whole movie sounds like a fever dream, but i lost my fucking mind when a property brother came out
* raised somewhere in Asia since a baby by Asian parents *
- *has American accent*
- *dresses American*
- *seems to not understand anything about Asian culture*
makes sense.
Me honestly HAHA
Wut
and white as fuck
It makes perfect sence. I was born and raised in the United States by white parents and I don’t speak a single word of English.
I was raised in Vietnam by white parents but I am Vietnamese. My parents even tho they lived there for years don’t speak Vietnamese. I don’t know anything about Vietnamese culture. Where I live in Vietnam everyone dresses in jeans and t shirts “American” like. I have an American accent and don’t speak Vietnamese. It’s a bit confusing but it’s a way of life.

You can see him smiling near the end of that line. He can't hide the fact that he thought his own joke was funny.
Dude 🤦🏻♀️ even the rice bowl with the chopsticks sticking straight up is offensive, it’s like they went out of their way to use every problematic stereotype or misinterpretation of Japanese culture
LOL my boyfriend walked in for the 'flying-at-boobs-scene' and his reaction: "What incel directed that!?"
That’s a good reaction to have. Swear to god this is an incel weebs fever dream.
Blessed boyfriend lmao
That’s some good shit right there
@@thequeenofcringe1585 are you everywhere I go?

I have trouble suspending my disbelief that Ryan from High School Musical is attracted to women.
Yeahhh...that just made everything 10x more off-putting.
And the actor has a longtime girlfriend too
there is no heterosexual explanation for this
Ginger Hernandez Why lol
@@miamiric6051 have you seen high school musical?
Everything is written in Korean
They speak english
Ninjas are Japanese
Okay cuz that makes sense
That's kinda racist tbh, they just add random Chinese, Japanese, and Korean things and boom, it's Asian
with french subtitles lmao
Ikr, as a Japanese I’m extremely offended
Exactly qlwkrej19e bruh
they also wore Chinese traditional dresses like, ok......
The fact that 'ninja tryout' was written in Korean makes me laugh so much

Omg, I saw this movie playing in the children's section of a massive ferry while I was on a school trip. It was the most hilarious journey I've experienced.
Whoever was in charge of the movies must have had a DVD player and a stack of DVDs in the control room, but they didn't have a remote control. So they'd put in a typical children's movie, like Ice Age, and fiddle around with the buttons on the machine, going up, down, left right for about 10 minutes without finding the play button, then they'd give up and move on to the next DVD. Dancing Ninja was the only one that finally worked, and by that time we were already almost dead from laughter from just watching the helpless struggle with the DVD machine. Then witnessing this weird-ass film that is most definitely NOT a children's film being broadcast on a public ferry was tbh the highlight of the school trip, and remains an iconic moment of my school history.
Remember "Ryan's" name is is Icky
His name is Icky because he has a rat tail and wears sleeveless hoodies
uh oh lol true
Imagine... being the poor Lucas Grabeel and having Dancing Ninja movie part of your legacy as an actor. That's worse than a rattail dude.
Isn't he also in a movie about being son of some mermaid lady that left him stranded when he was young? Or am I thinking of some other dude?
@@DrakeTheDrizz really? Omg who the hell was his manager
DrakeTheDrizz are you talking about the movie The Thirteenth Year? Bc that was some other actor named Chez Starbuck
He's also part of Foodboy😂 At least he has HSM as a part of his legacy as an actor
What did both him and his manager think?
Do SPF-18. It has ya favorite soft boi Noah Centineo and makes absolutely no sense.
dude it is such a pointless movie, i had to stop watching it because it was so dumb
centimeter*
*chameleon
it was weird but i enjoyed it lmfao
oh my god yes please do it
I think it’s hilarious that who you first saw “Ryan“ as in a movie severely changes how you see this movie. Because I saw him in food boy before HSM, so I will never see him as anything but food boy.
i am like a baby. i like repetition. consistency. his intros keep me entertained.
This comment gives me joy

alexis buhler LIKE WHAT IS HE DOING
Same
ME TOO like wtf is he doing in this lmaoo
as someone who has only seen this dude as ryan in high school musical it’s bizarre to see him as anything but a Home of Sexual
he's just a very closeted homosexual in this movie
Isn't his actor also gay?
TheBaronOfNothing the actor himself is not gay. Although the director of High School Musical recently revealed that his character Ryan was gay all along. It feels a bit like JK Rowling to me though.
@@sherlock7898 uh... I don't see how that's comparable to Rowling at all. Ryan was super effeminate. I would honestly be more surprised if they tried to say they didn't intend for him to be gay.
Author Cassie Beebe I think it’s not very brave to say it years after the fact but not to mention anything at the time to make sure you get those Disney bucks.
17:21 What do ya mean? Hasselhoff is well known for his cover of hooked on a feeling, they didn't need another reason to put it in the movie. It was just permanently embedded in early 2000s culture.
Your seventh grade picture looks like Jim from The Office.
a clever name he still kind of looks like him honestly
if you told me before watching this video that a *property brother* was in a shitty ninja movie i would NOT have believed you but here we are
starting to think this whole movie is just soft porn
Seems to have the same line of reasoning 🤷♀️

I mean **bites lip** _it could be_
Soft like Ryan

kurtis doesn’t know his hsm lore. in that song, _ryan_ was encouraging one of the _jocks_ to dance, chad, who was convinced that _he_ couldn’t dance.
I thought I was the only one who noticed!
S t a n
I say we cancel him again for this mistake
I’ve been scrolling the comments for like five minutes trying to see if anyone else saw that.
@@aidanbrace as a chyan connoisseur, of course i noticed. i have listened to that song… far too many times.
its funny how there are ninjas (japanese) but it looks like its filmed in korea
I thought the same. That’s probably why they said they were Somewhere in Asia instead of Japan so they couldn’t get called out on it
Jmo “somewhere in asia” almost sounds worse lmao
was about to comment the same

Roll credits.
This movie is Asian stereotypes and misogyny: the movie.
Misogyny? Asian stereotypes yes. Sexualization of women also yes. This movie is horrible and wrong. But this isn't really misogyny. Misos means hate in greek. There isnt hate or prejudice here against women. There is though sexualisation which is completely wrong and creepy. Just lets not use the other word so freely. There is real misogyny out there and its a far bigger problem so using that word casually is damaging to real cases of misogyny
@@Enel97 pretty sure reducing women to sex objects is hateful. But thanks for mansplaining misogyny.
@@wendynerd1199 Yikes. You are one of those types. Nevermind. Now as a greek I think I know better what a word originating from my country and its language means regardless of what's between our legs. But that being said Its not like you would be willing to listen.
@@elizabethkinard572 but...why can't I experience misogyny?
@@Enel97 Actually, Wendy is kinda right. Since the movie does feature prejudice against women (the idea that women pretty much only exist to fuck dudes in the movie) and is therefore misogyny. And if we're reaching here, it does kinda get to the level of sexual objectification which is also misogyny.

Omg I’m dying.. 😂
Do you think they google translated it?
Not once did Ryan ever hit one of those arrows. Even when he was supposed to be an amazing dancer.
The best thing when you find a creator like Kurtis for the first time is that there is years worth of content to binge!
