Middle ages. Glad we don’t live in them anymore
You GUYS! That's not what you told me the first time you guys..."
you know what I wasn't going to reply to this but you're honestly just jealous because katy invited me to her birthday party and not you and she's the hottest bitch in school
lol youre still in school
Sam Asher . , you as a Zombie Warrior myself I have to empty her because Joan of Arc she stand what she believed in and that's the reason well she got herself fried or burnt who I say that big guy burn baby burn that's why I'm in trouble
boo
Whenever people tell me do shit sometimes.
I’ll never not be impressed with the voice sync
It occurs to me that they have to actually play it live during the filming of the "re-enactment," which has got to be so fucking hard to keep a straight face for.
fuck you that's literally the best part

They meant: They will always be impressed. Double-negatives are hard I guess?

@@rkstevenson5448 you think the reenactment is filmed live?
Vanessa Hudgens lipsync is on point damn
All the lip syncing is impressive in these. Noticed 5:37 especially. Ha!
I dont think its lip syncing i think they're actually saying what the storyteller is saying but are muted out
I only know her as the girl from Highschool Musical
@rach riane You can tell she was having a blast while filming that episode lol

Joan of Arc is Hamlet for women. Like, THE role of all roles.
The whole world revolves around the character's private emotions, they don't have to prostitute themselves with a male lead, they get to be combatively powerful, and at the end they get to be tragically pitied. And she was REAL. Not a vain fantasy.
Joan of Arc was the OG Katniss.
The actors in these recreations are always good, but Vanessa Hudgens' performance is awards-worthy.
Mariko True, I saw this episode on TV and had no idea who Hudgens was, but I thought the same thing. Great job with the lip synching and facial expressions. Hopes she's on the show more often.
Mariko True she’s the best lol. I’d totally take her out for dinner. I’d even split the check. But she’s paying for the Uber.

THOMAS the TRAIN I don’t get why though! The so called “Dark Ages” were in fact the opposite! It was a period of advancement and enlightenment it’s just no one bothers to acknowledge that and all the great things that happened during that time!

Jelani Armstrong How so?!
My favorite part of Joan's trial was when they asked her if she was in God's grace. Her answer: "If I am not, may God put me there; and if I am, may God so keep me." The question was a trap because if she had said yes, it would have been heresy, and if she had said no, that would have been admitting she was guilty. Also it proved she knew her church doctrine and she was super smart. (And then she was declared innocent like 25 years later and then she was canonized and made patron saint of France in 1920.)
Nothing was enough for the church. The voice says: hey! Get Charles crowned!
It has been called the 100 year war, because it wasn't 5 or even 10 years. Seemingly nobody was able to turn it around for a long time. So, she does make it happen: Charles is crowned. Yeah! But like good old narcissists: get me Paris too! (No mention that it is their worldly, selfish, "give me more", not so "churchy" overindulge self who said it, not god.)
When she loses it, they pissed because they feel entitled. They can't even have gratitude for what she has done. So they gave her the narcissistic question, when you can say yes or no, it will be your fault anyway. How disgusting they are? They think because she didn't get Paris, the voice was not true, because clearly, God loved them so much more than Joan of Arc , she just an annoying lowlife who didn't "give them Paris". If it was at the first place, Joan would win it. The church was the one who were disgraceful to Joan's sacrifice and was demanding more from her (and god). What a disgusting, ungrateful and narcissistic bunch. Having a tantrum with god: oh how dare you not giving us Paris. Because they can't burn god, they burn the messenger. If there is god, I wonder how were these "representatives" received at the gate? Doing god works? If there is god, maybe it was these "representatives" who were burnt. They did such of BAD work for "representing", being "grateful", going against their gods will (there were no talking about Paris). Instead of having gratefulness for ending 100 years misery, they burn her. What a way to respect the sacrifice of Joan, the "help/gift" from their own god. Nutty, nutty people.
The teachings of the story: Don't mingle with people who are unable to respect their own God's gifts, decision and your sacrifice. They are psychopaths who have tantrum meltdowns if God doesn't give them what they want.
No trust, no work.
I am so happy that I am not Joan of Arc. 2021 is not 1430, we don't have spoiled kings and we suppose to have law to protect basic human rights. Like torture and abuse. We also have workers rights, have something for dangerous work conditions, you have to provide PPE. It is like law against the narcissist who would use anybody as an object because their entitlement have no boundaries. It is like not enslaving other people for one's luxury... etc...
Good to have laws...
Laws protect people from others who have absolutely no conciousness. Not even their own religion is respected as much than their own agenda and narcissist interests. They put themselves above their own god.
Didn't she also eat grass and stuff like that?
@@70Films always one dumbass who has to distract with nothing to add the significance of historical figures.
Yeah, that probably takes away the pain she had to endure. Gotta love the post mortem remedies.
Everyone ought to read the transcript of Joan's trial.This uneducated peasant girl runs rings around some of the Middle Ages best canon lawyers. It is truly amazing.

No one ever talks about how fucking SASSY Joan was.
When some guy was interrogating her about the voices she heard he was like "what do they sound like? What language do they speak?" and she straight up looked him in the eye and was like "French, and much better than you."

i’d genuinely watch a movie with Vanessa Hudgens playing Joan Of Arc
I have been looking forward to the story of Sun Tzu, starring Kevin Costner.
@@Lodatzor so pressed 😂
@@lilahesse1774 Whatever that is meant to mean, I do not care. My point is a good one. :)
@@lilahesse1774
*"Actually, it's not at all."*
Actually, yes it is. Joan of Arc was not a melanin-rich person, which means casting her as one is as appropriate as casting Kevin Costner for Sun Tzu. That's a good point, right there. :)
*"if you're interested I can easily list 20 films that have a white character playing a person of color,"*
You mean, like Kevin Costner playing Sun Tzu? You're really just proving my point for me.
*"that's a very popular casting choice in Hollywood."*
Not for the last 50 years, it hasn't. People such as yourself always seem to use rhetoric which was out-dated before they were even born.
*"Also, every movie about Joan of Arc stars an "accurate" white actress."*
Why did you put accurate in quotes? Joan of Arc being white IS accurate. Joan of Arc being nonwhite is not accurate. It's a very simple dichotomy. Movies portraying Joan of Arc as white are indeed being accurate, and any movie which didn't would certainly be inaccurate. Not sure why you think that accuracy needs to be called into question to defend a silly UA-cam video's decision to cast Jon of Arc as nonwhite just to impress the Wokesters, who presumably have never actually seen a nonwhite person before, and think that we need to see them all throughout European history because they imagine it is striking a blow against colonialism, or something. It's just cringe, really.
*"Therefore the fact that it seems to bother you is ridiculous"*
LOL, define 'bother'. I don't much care either way, but, more importantly, MY POINT IS STILL CORRECT. :) That's the only thing which bothers me. You still haven't given me any reasons why this is not the case.
*"This is a funny youtube video"*
And this is a comment in the comments thread for that video, which are typically used to discuss the video in question, which is why someone made an original comment, and I replied to it. In other news: water is wet, grass is green, and Lodatz is still right about Vanessa being an inappropriate choice to play a European peasant from the 15th Century.
@@Lodatzor This long azz soliloquy is proof that it's burning you up inside. By the way, I am certain if Vanessa Hudgens took a mitochondrial DNA test she would be found to be at least 70% European. Ava Longoria did the test and was shocked to find similar results. Because dumbazzes such as yourself think all white people must look like Pale Northern Europeans.

It's actually sensible.
You have a bunch of mounted knights. They have a bunch of archers and maybe 1/4 of their army are men at arms. An immediate charge would go through their forces and slaughter almost all of them, as in the Battle of Patay.
Wait 2 hours and the English will dig in. Cavalry charge gets stopped by a row of wooden stakes. English win.

"Is it redundant to believe in your own beliefs? I don't care, and neither did Joan." 😂😂😂
I literally just heard this right before I wrote this comment, haha!
I literally read this as soon as she said it
I love Drunk History, and this is the only story I've felt a desire to speak on:
In 1425, Joan was 13. One day, in a moment free from chores, she sat alone, pondering in her father's garden. This is her account: "It was summer, about noon. Suddenly, there was a great light. I heard a voice calling my name. After I had thrice heard this voice, I knew it was the voice of an angel. I was very much afraid. I knew it was the archangel Michael. He was in the form of a man. His voice of beautiful, sweet, and humble, and he spoke the French language. He told me of the pitiful state of the kingdom of France, and that I was to come to the aid of the king. He told me that I must be a good child and that God would help me. He also told me that Saint Catherine and Saint Margaret would come to me and that I should act by their advice. That they would lead me in what I had to do. And that I should believe what they would say. When he withdraw from me I wept, and kissed the ground where he had stood."
When Joan was ten, the mad king Charles died, but his 23-year old son, Prince Charles, was afraid to make decisions or take risks. He lived secure and comfortable in the walled city of Chinon, where his advisers told him to wait for better times to be crowned.
Jeremy D. Adams:
She's not the fraud, the saint, the psychotic, the maniac, that people have imagined she might have been, just in order to understand her. In a way, her being terribly ordinary makes her harder to understand, makes the real mystery of Joan of Arc.
G.K. Chesterton wrote that Joan chose a path and went down it like a thunderbolt.
I agree with the judgement of the very great Regine Pernoud, who summed up decades of deep research about Joan with the statement that the story of Joan of Arc is both 'too beautiful and too terrible to ignore.'
She died at 19. Before they lit the fire she called to a man to take a nearby cross, "Hold it high so I may see it through the flames." She repeated, "Jesus," with all the strength of her conviction and cause, she wasn't crying out for help out of it.
Whatever else Joan's story is, it's a story of faith, whatever else it is, it's a story of a young woman's religious conviction and religious experience. So she's remarkably captivating, she somewhat mysterious figure, but a great story of courage, and espically courage from a young person.
She was insane she heard voices in her head
It's also a story of war.
And how the god of abraham loves to sacrifice people for war
Thinking that God or Gods or spirits or saints are speaking to you does not make you a psychotic, in and of itself. Not every historical prophet, mystic, or founder of a religion had psychosis. In fact, most of them did not. They were able to function in the real world. Had Joan really been psychosis, nobody would have followed her. She would have babbled, she would have mixed her real life with her delusions, she could not have led an army. She would have been way too disorganized in her thinking. Had she led one, she could not have won. She was a mystic. It is not the same thing.

Fun fact
Joan signed her name "Johanne"
The reason is because she was originally a Peasant her family had no second name. Her father would later use "Darx" or "Darc" when they were granted some title because of Joan's service.
Basically of Arc or as the Francophonie would say "d'Arc" is a little inaccurate because d'Arc wasn't used by her or her family, and in that era using d'[insert place here] wasn't used to denote of [insert place here] until at least the 1600's. In addition there was no place called Arc. so...... yeah. Johanne Darx or Johanne Darc would be more accurate. but everyone knows her as Joan of Arc, so that's probably going to remain.
Fun fact: her name is Jeanne d'Arc and not Joan
@@tommaso9162 but also, not really
Also little known: Joan's hometown was a place called Domremy. I think, yeah, too many people assume she was from a place called Arc.
Huh, so that's why we call her "Johanna von Orléans" in german.
Joan called herself "Jeanne la Pucelle / Joan the Maid" during her lifetime.
This was the best acting we've seen from Vanessa Hudgens.
I love the battle between her and Shakespeare!
Oh my god a Fate reference

I prefer the battle between her and Miley Cyrus.

@@ohword9541 good thing I'm an atheist
She also didn’t ask her saints for help while burning at the stake either. Her final words were crying out the name Jesus because she believed that it was her destiny to die as a martyr for her cause and had her faith until the end of her life.

The French treated Joan like shit. She was constantly imprisoned for crossdressing and they betrayed her.
It was the English that imprisoned Joan for crossdressing, not the French. The French also did not betray her. She was captured in a confrontation with Burgundian forces.
ElPayasoMalo please don’t act like you know history if you’re wrong. It’s insulting to those who study it
takinadeuce It was a typo. I was in a rush. Damn. What I was trying to say (and what I had thought I had said) was that the French betrayed her. They didn't care about her. When the English captured her, Charles VII didn't really do anything to try to save her from death. Ungrateful bastard left her to die. So the English were free to do with her whatever they wanted to because France as represented by Charles was mostly unconcerned for her well-being. She went all in trying to make this guy king and in the end got nothing but death for it.
ElPayasoMalo Welcome to the Middle Ages, where many men and women were brutally killed. Nothing special about Joan
Yes, there is something special about Joan...she was the only woman known to lead an army at the time and was killed merely for wearing regular army clothes just because women weren't supposed to. She had to face far more barriers and was treated worse than men simply because she was a woman.
I come back to this video time and again for one scene: 1:36. I don't know which is better, Hillary's voice acting or Vanessa's expression, but I love it so much.
"Omg God, ya, he's the tops" 😂😂😂
OMW I've been waiting for this day forever! Jeanne was my hero since I was a little girl, and she still inspires me as an adult.
Loved it
The last revenge of the English, making Jeanne D’Arc famous by a name she’d never been called in life
It's fine tho we translate important english sounding name in french too. I know it's a joke but like it's just a normal thing to do when your accent make the name hard to pronounce.
It’s kinda like how the Americans chose my country’s « national hero » without consulting anyone, with the primary criteria being that he was an already conveniently DEAD doctor-writer who was AGAINST violence and was executed by the SPANISH long BEFORE the revolution began.
This is unlike all the more obvious peasant-soldier leaders who actually won the revolution against Spain, then started a war against the US when the Americans thought we’d be happy for them to just walk in and take Spain’s place AND (worst of all) lived to tell about it.
You see, the US wanted to get in on the whole colonization craze, but knew we had a good track record of toppling imperialist powers. They didn’t want us to win another revolution, this time against the US, and so made everyone idolize a hippie instead of a hero. They played it so well, that textbooks more than 100 years later still praise the US-dictated hero instead one truly chosen and respected by the people.
@@jaimel88 I'm not from the US so I have a hard time knowing what country and which person you're talking about. I have a guess but I'd still rather ask. What country is that and who is it ?
Whats so hard about Jeanne D'Arc, I am German and can pronounce it.
@@jaimel88 are you talking about the Philippines ? You should have stayed Americans after WW2. One reason why so many Filippinos are around the world is simply because of corruption in the government.
I like these kind of skits or story telling although its kinda hilarious but I learned a bit of history in a fun way. I showed this to my neighbor and they enjoyed it. Then my whole village was inspired because of this. Thank you.
People don't really appreciate how amazing this was. If it was just some random peasant dude, it'd still be truly incredible, but the fact she was a woman made it just insane.

'This' was a great story of #JoanofArk... thanks for the upload.
sidebar: We so love how Joan Hubert aka Aunt Viv sometimes call herself *Joan of Dark* .
This is hysterical and the best historical video on Joan of Arc out there. I now want to relearn history from drunk people. Thank you, Comedy Central 🙏🏻❤️
I'd like to stay that 17 year olds now are not standing around blinking they are throwing teargas back at police
@OAT351 Wouldn't it be gen z?
@@niceguy6947 i think its a combination of the two generations
and that's facts
@OAT351 So you just put the blame somewhere else? Nice one.
@OAT351 the dumbones are, try to hit a man and get the backhand real quick
@6:49 Vanessa has inspired me. I'm gonna quit blinking.
this is just too well done!
*what I like to think happened*
"Why should we follow you?"
"Because three saints told me to lead France to victory and that Charles is the rightful king"
"Seems legit"
3:46 i want to believe all she did was ask politely for an army.
Those days it was pretty easy to get a army if you had the will to fight and sacrifice your life. Being a solider was the only way up to money power and fame. You never heard a of blacksmith and merchant becoming a king . The strongest and Ruthless kings were soliders and the weakest were their offspring. Only offspring I know that was the Greatest was Alexander the Great, and he was both a solider and a king.
What was she going to demand it in those days?
It's not like you would become a king from a soldier in the middle ages in Europe O_o No one became a king who wasn't more or less born to it regardless of wars in those times.
I really love these one, usually like this history should be told. Drunk friends talking about amazing historical events and getting a bunch of it wrong but still capturing the essence of the story.
With that said, for those who would like to know more:
Joan of Arc was 17 years old when she was blessed and legitimized but Kind Charles of France.
They were worried that the English would call her a witch and the crown of France a crown by the devil so they made all attempts to make her morality legit.
Finally she went to Orleans, a city under siege by the English for several months, and joined up with the newly reinforced army there. Joans religious devotion inspired both generals and soldiers alike, she rode around the men at the frontline with her banner. In fact Joan never actually killed anyone, something she took great pride in as a true christian she did not kill.
Through out her successful campaigns she followed either Jean de Dunois, La Hire or John II the Duke of Alençon. Great military leaders of their time and all faithful christians who all beleived in Joans preachings. They were her friends and they took her advice seriously every time. She changed strategy several times with great success! She actually took Paris back in one of these campaigns and was not captured. After the following truce broke down she went to support outnumbered French soliders in Compiègne but in that battle she was surrounded by Burgundian (hostile french forces) soldiers and it was them who burned her at the stakes.
My fave drunk history episode. Vanessa and Hillary killed it!
Such a terrible rendition of the story of Joan de Arc, it's almost like a drunk person did all the work researching the facts...
Oh wait
So the casting of a non-white person is representative of a drunk fuck-up? Okay, I can buy that.
@@Lodatzor Given it's comedic and non-serious I think we can forgive casting. It's not meant to be an immersive period piece accurately re-creating France of 1400s.
@@pronumeral1446
But it still seems very forced and unnecessary. I mean, if this comedic, non-serious video were about Cleopatra, and she was played by a white actress who happens to be popular right now, would that be forgivable too? Just asking.
@@SeekSeekLest
"Hamlet can be anyone"
Yes and no.
@@SeekSeekLest
Oops, never saw this reply. Yes, Cleopatra is a fun example, but mostly because there has been so much outrage about her supposed white-washing, when as you say she was Greek. I will admit I was hoping someone would bite. However, here's the fun part:
*"If X group is underrepresented or less visible it makes them not having roles depicting members of that group more impactful."*
What exactly do you mean by 'undrerepresented''? Black people in the US, for instance, only make up 12% of the population, so in order to be represented appropriately they should make up about 12% of roles. But that doesn't mean they should be playing 12% of historical figures whom we KNOW to be white. They should be playing 0% of those.
If this was a video made, for instance, in an African country by Africans, then it stands to reason that the people available to them would be black, so THEM doing it would not be strange, because it's very clear that their acting pool would be a little light on the white folks. But since the US is still 75% white, and since there are people living there who are literally descended from people who lived in France during the time in question, the choice to toss in a nonwhite actor for the sake of 'representation' becomes rather vapid and shallow.
I mean, don't get me wrong, I don't CARE about this matter, but it's still true that it's dumb and, well, the sort of thing a drunk person might do because they didn't realize how dumb it was.
*"Especially of the character or situation is heavily based on that trait."*
What trait? I don't follow. But to your point made about how the reverse doesn't matter, this is entirely untrue. Erasing anyone from history is a bad thing, even when they're white, and instead shows that the person would rather lie to themselves about history and reality than deal with them as they are. It's a fantasy bubble that some people choose to construct, because it helps them feel better about their whiteness.
It's like when Google decided it would be really cute to make it so that whenever anyone Googled 'european history', they got a ton of pictures of black people and slavery. They think it's amusing to erase and characterize the diverse history of an entire continent down to one issue that most of them barely even understand as a historical subject. They think they're making the world a better place by deliberately misrepresenting the history of Europeans. So do the makers of this video, when they cast a nonwhite person to play Joan of Arc.They think it's cute. They think it's funny, and when someone points out that it's dumb, out come the arguments about 'representation'.
In short: a fantasy bubble is constructed, and then defended upon the grounds that it's the way things 'should be'. There is indeed something very wrong with that.
*"Hamlet can be played by anyone."*
Not really, and only because he's fictional. However, he is still a prince of DENMARK. Again, if a production in East Asia or Africa want to put on a production of Hamlet, it is entirely appropriate to cast from whom they can, which will very likely be nonwhite.
But doing so in Denmark, or in England for that matter? That's just dumb, and it doesn't help anyone. You might as well have Othello played by Rose McGowan. It's a dumb decision made for dumb reasons, and defended solely upon the grounds of misrepresenting a historical figure in order to solve a perceived inequity on TV.
I stand by my criticism, but again, I remind you that I don't care. This is an entirely trivial matter, but the point remains valid, and I certainly don't think they should be praised for it.
0:52 Good to see those medieval watches
This is one of the best voice/acting combos on this show
Loved the fire in this episode hehe
She's so into leading an army right now. The speed at which she shot all those arrows, I was like OOOOHHH! She really brought it!
shady boots I LOVE YOU FOR THIS
The problem with the American version of this is they're never really drunk.
In the beginning of the show they had them rightly drunk but I guess people didn't like watching the narrators puke? Or it wasn't historically accurate/cohesive enough. It sucks, I liked it when they were actually drunk.
some seem like drunk, by talking and drunk behavior
In Russian version, narrator passes out halfway through video.
they actually do get drunk
exactly! the acting is too over the top
@5:27 I like how Vanessa Hudgens is manicured for shooting arrows 😂
This is the best one of all these Drunk History series. Hillary is a dope narrator. Vanessa's acting is dope. The producer guy is even packing some dope... Somebody check his pockets!
Dope-itty dope dope.
I'm 17 and I don't have time to blink all I can do is study then procrastinate then study some more
"I'm not saying you should aspire to more but...Maybe... Aspire to more."
😂
"The dauphin".... funny ass hell. The acting made the voice funnier.
Her death face took me out 🤣🤣🤣🤣 also the narrator has a great cartoon voice.
She said mearings wens clothes 😂😂😂😂😂😂

This was a good one! Yayyyyy
