Delgo at least doesn't feel like a soulless, cynical cash grab, but it does feel like a Wattpad fanfic proudly written by an 11-year-old.
Wait
Some of those are good tho
Have you ever read My Immortal?
@@brookehansen6973 , credit where it's due, some fanfics are good! I was referring more to the tendency among young people to get really excited about their totally-original story that is just a rehash of the stories they've enjoyed.
@@brookehansen6973omg no, please…I remember when that came out. It’s soo bad !!😂😂😂
@@brookehansen6973a coworker read that to me against my will. Nearly drove me insane

I remember really wanting to watch this movie as a kid. My mom said no because she thought it looked "ugly as all hell" LMAO
Sometimes your mother is right
She was so right and real for that

Based
Can you blame her lol.
Honestly I feel bad for the creators. The director went to the movies when they released it but only one child and mother was there.
He was really discouraged
I was having more fun when I thought it was a cash grab…
yeah, it's not really a terrible movie either. like, it's fine. simplified with iffy writing, yes, but it's fine for a general audiences movie. the animation, however, is what (understandably) turned people off due to the eventual budget, and I think that had a huge impact on how people perceive(d) it. like, the concept art looked alright. it seems like budget was what most of the problems boiled down to. the marketing must've sucked, too, because even if a movie is trash, people will watch it if it's pushed on them enough. I've seen films worse than this that are rated higher.
there have been a couple students who claim they had the director as a professor. they said he was very passionate and knew what he was teaching, and having seen the DVD extras, I do get the feeling there was some real heart put into this. there will always be people just there for a paycheck, but it seems like it started off with some passionate people who just didn't have the means or experience for the movie they wanted to make just yet. even some of the VAs seemed genuinely enthusiastic about the project (before it took years to release, anyway).
@@washedblue Definitely, I agree with all of that. There was real passion, but it just didn't work out. I don't know if the director did any other projects, but I hope so. He needs a win after this movie.
Lmao ❤
Ahhh, poor guy, the whole crew seemed really excited and to be trying to do a lot of cool things that still don’t happen often in the film industry. It looked a lot better than I expected for being a legitimately historic bomb. Gotta be a marketing problem, this woulda been right up my ally at the time it came out, but I never even heard about it. Hope he kept making movies though.
This movie is Avatar’s mentally deranged brother.💀
This is basically what happens if you ordered Avatar from Wish.
This movie took a shit so avatar could piss.
Funniest comment I've ever seen
I don't want to be that guy, but it comes off as ableist.
Avatar is just an over budgeted Dancing with Wolves 😂
this is one of those movies that you vaguely remember but always just assumed it was from a fever dream you had when you were 5 years old. To see that it actually exists rattles me a little bit.
Like the Snurks
It was on Netflix and my friend and I watched it and she liked it, but I didn't. We were both 5.
@@Long_May_They_Raineoh my god I just googled snurks and now I'm shook. You have unlocked a part of my soul with reminding me of them oh my god
No. Not even. Never knew this existed and I wish I never did.

I remember the swell of emotions--disgust, anger, sorrow, loathing--when my school librarian gave me a Delgo bookmark as a child.
They had merchandise of this crappy movie?
I think I'm gonna throw up 🤮
Im surprised it even had merchandise like a bookmark
You just memory holed me soooooo badly 😂
I feel bad for you 😔
"This movie's about action,"
"Vengeance"
"Courage"
*"Racism."*
" GENOCIDE! "
hearing that had me rolling oml 😂
Oh so it's a college lecture given by a whiny leftist professor. Yeah I'll pass
I think “just forgetting “ genocide and racism is a valid reason for Delgo to be mad 😂😂
nah he was right 😂 she even pulled the “it wasn’t us !!” like babe 😭😭😭😭
Turd Ferguson agrees.
Truly bad film.
Yes, I thought that too. It's like Delgo was doing his best to be noble about it but then she gives it "we should all just forget the past and move on" and he blows up. It seemed pretty understandable to me.
@@LycanKai14good point. Racism is never rational, it’s entirely emotional. And I guess we can’t really expect the movie to give the villain a backstory where she was an isolated lonely teen who was taken in and groomed by a racist online forum or something.
@@LycanKai14when he said "no reason" im thinking maybe it wasnt explained why she is that way , no background story on it
I think the character designs would be greatly improved by just making their eyes less humanoid. If they had stranger, more cartoony or beady animal-like eyes it would be alright. It feels instead they thought people wouldn't relate to non-human eyes in these decidedly non-human characters and that's what makes them so uncanny.
Bold of you to assume the effects of watching Delgo ever left my body since I picked it up from a Blockbusters 15 years ago
Honestly… I don’t recall if I ever saw this movie when it came out, but the fact the Director wanted to create his own movie outside of Hollywood, and even outsourced high school students… I wish they had done better and the movie had turned out differently. It seems like a a passion project, and I feel bad for the Director
idk if you've done the oogieloves yet bionic, but it is a FEVER dream. the title of "the worst movie of all time" is absolutely deserved. in theatres, children were encouraged to "interact" with the movie, which made it unbearable for the parents AND moviegoers in other theatres (due to the stomping and dancing the movie encouraged).
Reminds me of the Elmo movie
@@xFlareLeon Elmo In Grouchland was a masterpiece compared to Oogieloves idk what you’re talking about…
Ha I remember somewhere on theinternet, people were talking about that movie being so awful that kids hated it, and someone said "You might say that people left in Oogiedroves" and someone replied "I would never say that."
This movie makes me so sad. Not just because it's generically mediocre and the designs make me want to gouge out my own eyes, but because there was a lot of effort put into something that flopped so horribly. It's fun to make fun of bad, cheap movies clearly made for a quick profit because no one cares about them and the only ones to suffer are the audience, but looking at Delgo and knowing someone put their absolute all into trying to make something people would enjoy just hurts. And the main guy behind it, from every story I hear of him, is just a kind, passionate guy with a love of storytelling.
he could've badly used a cowriter to iron out the rough patches but at least he tried
Some people just weren't meant for certain things though. That's life.
@@qv43v true. Yes, but no less sad. Who wants to see their passion fail so spectacularly? It's normal and to be expected, but still upsetting
So, when I was at Art Institute of Atlanta, this film was still in production. Or already released, it was honestly pretty hard to tell. This was when I was first learning Maya, and so, when I took my first 3D animation class, we all got Delgo's model to learn how to rig and animate our first walk animations. So I'll never forget that face. Ever. At least some of the rigging attempts made that guy look like an eldritch abomination.
My old animation professor made this movie, was always a wonderful story to hear him talk about this films history. He's such a humble guy, and has a lot of passion for storytelling. Great teacher. Great guy.

The full quote from the back of the DVD
"Despite a somewhat unimaginative plot with dull characters that aren’t as endearing or memorable as they could have been, Delgo at least manages to be a mostly engaging, fun and exhilarating adventure for all ages, as long as you’re willing to check your brain at the door and suspend your disbelief during the ideal running time of 90 minutes." - the NYC guru
Stopppp did they really put that on there?🤣
Wow, if that's the kindest review that they've got to put it on the box then...
I wish reviews were like this, more people need to write reviews like this.
I can't tell if this is real or the best shitpost ever.
@@morticia981
It's real.
I was thinking this wasn't such a bad movie for coming out in 2001. THIS MOVIE CAME OUT IN 2008! RATATOUILLE WON THE OSCAR THAT YEAR
Ouch 🤕
its not bad for what they had to work with at the time not every has the best gear
Man, I’ve missed Pig talking about shitty movies…
me too
yeah me too

my family had a video store in the early 2000s and im now realizing that i was probably the only person in that store who actively rented out this god forsaken movie
Fun fact, I was in middleschool where we got a movie theater trip once a year. Delgo was playing alongside Madagsscar 2. I went to see Delgo and.. I was one of the only people in the seats that day. There were Ike three others and that's the biggest memory I got out of this film.
"Mom! Can we go to the movies and watch Avatar?"
"No, we have Avatar at home."
Avatar at home:
This movie reminds me of "Battle for Terra" (2007). It's that movie you know you've watched yet you can't find proof of its existence anywhere and start to doubt if it even existed (waiting for a battle for terra review)
wooow I thought I was the only person who remembered that film. I actually went to see it in the movies with my dad 😭
Was that the one where the aliens were weird floating mermaid things fighting army guys?
@@albatross4920goddamn I need to watch that now
Oh my god what you just reminded me of! I used to watch that on DVD and it's so unknown and lost to time I'd like to see someone covering it
12:32 that doll was probably meant to be like the baby dolls with fabric and stuffing in the torso, but hollow ceramic for the hands and head. this makes them cheaper to produce and safer for children than full ceramic, while also being sturdy and having a high level of detail in the faces and hands. which, ironically enough, is done partially because hands and faces are what tends to cause that sense of uncanny valley the most if theyre done poorly. i had one as a kid.
I have met Chris Kattan at several conventions and can I just say. there is not a single actor I've met who is more ashamed of their 'comedic relief' movie career than him. From Night at the Roxbury to that one christmas film and now this, he just......is not a happy camper when it comes to the idea of his own acting.
Dude that is so depressing 😩😩 I remember him from a movie where he's like, this fake spy? And there's a scene where he's wearing a wire and he says to the enemy that he's feeling a bit wiry 😂😂😂 i think it's corky romano? Or something? Anyway Chris is attractive, I wonder about what got him into comedic relief roles then....holup let me Wikipedia this
corky romano yes, one of my favs. @@madeniquevanwyk
Night at the Roxbury and corky Romano are hilarious idk why he wouldn’t be proud
I thought he was great in the finale to Monkeybone.
You should talk about Oogieloves next (the film that beat out Delgo for having the worst opening weekend ever)!
I remember seeing commercials for this movie and thinking it looked so ugly. The color scheme is like, public bathroom? But I agree some of the creatures are cool and its bull that the only likeable character died.
“Nah it’s fine the elders took me in idc” *proceeds to care very very much*
I actually loved Delgo as a kid, and never had anyone to talk to about it bc no one else saw it :( I do feel bad for how many times I made my parents watch it, now that I’m a grown man.
Aww
I read that back in 2008/2009 Late Night with Conan O’Brien showed clips of Delgo. But instead of playing the dialogue, they played dialogue of newscasters trying to explain the finance and housing crisis.
I’m convinced that footage still exists.
I remember rebeltaxi
Calling this “The duke nukem forever of animation!”
i used to love Delgo when it came out but oh my god i was so much younger then
@seen something like this in a Markiplier video, nice try bot
Yeah same like i war hed it a fee times and thought the dragon thing was so cool
It's so weird to hear how much passion was behind this and how sad it was, because I always assumed after watching it as a kid that it was a generic bootleggy straight to DVD type movie. I also don't understand the character design, they look human enough that you'd figure they'd just MAKE them human right? All they did was give them these uncanny and disturbing snouts. It looks weird, even for a fantasy race.
If Avatar can use Papyrus, so can Delgo!
For those questioning the doll, the head, hands, and feet(for some) were ceramic, and the rest of the body was cloth and stuffing. I had one as a kid from my nana. It was prolly cheaper or more personal to give a kid that, but mine stayed in the closet coming out sometimes cause i was afraid to break it and get in trouble. Why would adults give a kid that idk, like i said it was prolly to be more personal. It could be because those dolls were made for every race(mine was brown/black skin) and Barbie didnt have POC dolls or at least very limited, ofc Bratz was a thing as well.
There has been black Barbie dolls since 1967, the first being Black Francie (Barbie's cousin), followed by Christie in 1968, then Julia (a doll of the character of the same named played by Diahann Carroll) in 1969.
“Prolly” ?
@@roddmatsui3554probably
@@tessfabled4115those are so hard to find, usually default barbies are the easiest to get, even back then
@@tessfabled4115 I know I had black barbies growing up. I just know other dolls of color were made because barbie didn't have a big variety like they do know. The other dolls I talked about were more personal (at least in family and for those around me, so maybe it's not as common as I thought), they were passed down through the family. As well as there not being a big variety of POC dolls. I was a kid back in the 90s so I might be wrong, I just didn't see a lot of ads besides Bratz, monster high and Barbie, since they were the popular ones.
As well as older dolls were made from porcelain and or knitted/made by hand. My original point was that those were more common than barbie dolls. I might be wrong since I don't know the history of dolls, but that's how it seemed around me. The sad part is that you couldn't be rough with them since they can me easily broken so I never really played with mine.
It's honestly sad seeing how much passion went into this movie and seeing it do so badly. It's got a lot of issues, but it's definitely not the worst animated movie ever made and certainly didn't deserve to bomb as hard as it did. I've seen way worse plots from bigger studios. The biggest issue is definitely how the designs translated into animation, but I think it goes to show how far solid marketing and studio rep can get you too.
I hope the creators did keep doing creative things and didn't let this snuff their art forever. One win they got was a best feature award at the Brazilian animation festival, so I hope they have that up somewhere.

in a world of endlessly dunking on this movie, this comment is like a lantern in the dark. idc if it’s bad, this movie will always be a special part in my childhood
I wanna point out that at 13:25, I’m pretty sure that is in the Papyrus font, a now “forbidden” font for graphic designers because it was so overused in the early 2000’s that it has “baggage”, automatic negative emotional response when someone so much as looks at it. Stars I love how dated this movie is
If you ever come to Mexico you'll see Papyrus every-fucking-where
@@avril6922bro where??
Avatar uses Papyrus font
I remember walking out of the theatres and seeing the "upcoming" movies posters. There was one for Delgo. I recall exclaiming, "The fuck's a Delgo?!"
Still have no clue what a Delgo is...
That "leave no survivors" line is literally the only part of this movie I remember from back in 2008. The rest is just a fever dream I have the vaguest recollection of.
I've literally been looking for this movie for years - ONLY because I knew one of the characters had the same name as me. Thank you for finally allowing me to put a name to this ungodly thing that has haunted me since my youth
... Delgo?
I remember this movie because one of my teachers and a few of my friends from the Art Institute of Atlanta, worked on the character animation and lighting. I was informed that they ran into so many issues with the company lied about the budget and time that they were going to get to make the film. They ended up being rushed ahead of schedule and the movie didn't turn out the way they had planned. Very sad
Back when movie rental stores like Blockbuster where still around, I actually ended up checking this film out because the store clerk recommended it. Reason being is that I was an indecisive little kid but it was my turn to pick a movie for family movie night; and so rather than picking one myself I just told the clerk my interests (dinosaurs, sci-fi, "good character writing" and the colour purple). Evidently she didn't quite catch the last two and gave us THIS because it had aliens (although it's more of a fantasy movie than anything) and the mounts looked kinda like dinosaurs I guess? Needless to say the only thing I ended up liking about the movie was the creature designs, and I'm not talking about the ugly ass main characters lol.
That store clerk really didn’t give a shit 😂
@@gagalover2k10Yeah she wanted to get rid of that movie to at least one person 😂
oh no, did your parents say "you are never going to pick another movie again" after this? 😅
@@cynicalperson161 she probably ended up with a promotion tbh 🤣
The Color Purple? As a kid? Well, they are remaking it so you should look into it. Looks interesting and it has songs now.
Remember those Woodsprites from the first movie of Avatar? and how they all landed on Jake? They were literally basically just chilling in the background during the scene where delgo and kyla had their little argument 💀
😂😂
Racism, genocide and war, this is the recipe for a life changing movie... HOW CAN DELGO BE THIS BAD ???
Let's just watch world war movies, we can learn something about it and won't destroy our braincells as much as this one.
The animation reminds me of those straight to video Barbie movies.
As someone who have had communal riots break out twice in their region, you'd be surpised how small a thing and lead to simmering resentment boiling over and causing a very violent reaction.
I remember discovering Delgo in a local dollar store DVD bargain bin years ago. I watched the first 5 minutes and turned it off. Months later I tried again, got 10 minutes in and then not only turned it off but snapped the DVD in half.
seriously who sits down and decides..
what colour should the world be?.. "Murky green and brown!"
ok then so what colour should the characters be? "murky green and brown!!"
PERFECT!! LOOKS GREAT!!
Oh God, Delgo looks like Aladar's and Shrek's unholy love child.
The doll that got it's head smashed is probably based on dolls irl with ceramic heads and otherwise soft bodies. Most modern ones have the plastic head, arms and legs. but that isn't a alien concept... (
One the best videos you've made so far. Thanks daddy
don't beg, work hard my friend and not overwhelm about results. learn as you go with failures
Papa would be happy
😭 ???
Delgo walked so Avatar could run
“Voldemort and Voldemort with wings.”
I’m dead 😂
I'd be super curious to see the 2D concept art for these characters, because they are so intensely unpleasant to look at rendered in 3D that I HAVE to assume they looked better on paper. Otherwise HOW did these designs get greenlit by actual artists? Reminds me of movies like Frozen, which had absolutely gorgeous, highly stylized concept art that somehow ended up becoming the most generic and plastic final product possible.
Anne Bancroft, not Barcroft. She's a massively awarded actress and this is a hell of a thing to be her last role. Also you missed Malcolm McDowel when reading the cast list at 2:00 lol.
Malcolm McDonalds you mean?
My grandad voiced a character and the production studio saw how cheap his rates were and got him to voice 2 more
Remember watching this movie was incredibly sick with typhoid and fever, watched it from beginning to end genuinely thought it was a really surreal twisted fever dream I had, guess I wasn't hallucinating
I actually watched this alot as a kid... don't judge me there was war. I feel really bad for the people who put their heart into it
I've never heard of this but I have seen one meme of it saying "I fucking hate kids" and that's hilarious.
I remember watching this movie when I was a kid and being so confused for the entire run....I genuinely thought this was a knock off Star Wars back then, it hasn't gotten any better remembering it now
Lol, I got to sit and watch this movie with one of the directors as he was one of my college professors. He explained how the commentary track was them going through a case of beer and just reminiscing. Jason Maurer is a great guy and they genuinely tried.
I love how there was all that talk up in the begging and the story line is just every movie ever created.
The movie Food Fight lost the biggest part of its progress to a fire, so they had to use the alpha models for the endproduct. How come THIS movie only looks slightly better?
Seeing this video pop in my feed reminded me of being 13yo, seeing advertising for this movie, and thinking "Who approved such horrific designs?"
The comment about the hour long bowling alley strike animation is so accurate 💀
old dolls had ceramic heads with stuffed fabric bodies, actually thought it was a cute detail because it evokes a certain time period or stage of development
I went to school for 3D animation (at a ripoff school long story) and the textbooks they had... one of them was literally just screenshots and shit from the making of Delgo. For the longest time I thought it was just a 'movie' made up for use as examples in the textbook lmfao
I cane to laugh but i feel so bad for everyone who put their hearts into this. I literally feel depressed and discouraged for days when i mess up in a small situation, i can’t imagine working on something big for years and get my hopes shattered like that.
12:34 I know you literally weren't looking for an answer and it's an unimportant detail, but there are dolls with porcelain heads and soft bodies. not a popular choice, but they exist. I had a tiny set of clown ones gifted to me as a child in the 2000s, and yes, they were as unnerving to feel and look at as it sounds.
I remember watching this quite often. Got it from pound land (I have happy memories of buying abscure kids movies from there) I remember the idea of cutting a fairy's wings off as punishment was pretty grim, but morbidly fascinating to little me. I have a soft spot for it tbh 😂 but a admit it is preeeetty bad.
Right? Sometimes a movie is just... eeggh. But when you grow up with it, you still have the lovey memories, cuz as kids, we just see the things we like, (usually,lol) I have soooo many guilty pleasure movies, 😅
All I remember about this movie is seeing its poster in a kids magazine and I was like, “huh, they look weird”
Saw it once on an iPad as a kid and forgot about it the next day. The backstory is fun to learn about though.
When a movie is so bad that even streaming services won't touch it just says that it needs to be lost to the sands of time
my dad took me and my brother to see this movie when we were kids and yeah we were the only people in the theater and my dad refers to it as "that stupid delgo movie"
ok- Unironically, I love the Delgo movie. It's definitely because of the nostalgia I have for it, and I absolutely agree, it's terrible. But I love it. I love the characters (minus Filo, I mean he's alright, but....meh) Bogardus was my favorite character for sure, and it *always* bugged me that the princess was always in that weird yoga outfit. I honestly would love to see this movie get rewritten and either made into a 2-D animation using the original designs, or redesigned and made in a 3D but better.
Fun fact: this movie came out about a month b4 Avatar did 😂💯. And I think the guy who made it tried to sue😭. I’m not too sure about the last part off the top of my head lol but the release was definitely b4 avvatar
I actually looked this up, and it turns out that Delgo released in December of 2008, and Avatar released in December of 2009. So they were a year apart, but still it’s crazy to realize how close these two movies are in time.
Me and my younger sibling actually still have this as a DVD. There were a lot of super obscure movies that got made into a DVD back then. We always thought the movie was super weirdo but it had it's charms and we still laugh about it to this day.
I can't tell you how many of my VHS tapes had this movie's commercial on them. Mostly because I always fast forwarded, but I know it was a lot.
The main issue i see popping up the most is they didn't proof read and proof of concept the script and the storyboard. As the whole film could work had they done that first
Lesson learned. If your comedic relief is Chris Kattan, this is your fate.
For the Border treaty to be breached, Delgo's castle must be located exceptionally close to the border and the neighboring country. This proximity makes sense, considering that the wingless people relocated from a barren region to their current territory. Consequently, both groups would naturally inhabit nearby areas. In this context, it's plausible that Delgo's residence is situated in the suburbs, on the outskirts of the town, while her castle also lies on the fringes.
Furthermore, it's crucial to understand that the Border treaty primarily affects individuals who were once citizens of the other country. Such treaties often lead to the division of a unified territory, akin to the situation with North and South Korea. The winged people's country should be viewed in this manner-a former unified nation now separated into distinct regions.
Since the two groups previously coexisted harmoniously, the aftermath of genocide would likely involve a governing authority, perhaps a mayor or government, deciding to banish the group responsible for the genocide from the region. However, it's essential to remember that this was once an integrated society. Therefore, the Border treaty might dictate that individuals not of the ruling race are barred from specific areas. To ensure this, a leader from Delgo's race would have to be in charge of the region, as it's unlikely that someone would willingly exile their own race. The decision to segregate would have been motivated by a desire for peace.
This close proximity between the two groups implies that they inhabited neighboring towns or neighborhoods, with no significant geographical distance separating them.
A more reasonable treaty stipulation would involve a prohibition on new members of one race settling in the area while allowing those already residing there to remain.
Integrating this element into the storyline would offer a more understandable perspective. Firstly, it avoids the unethical practice of forcibly displacing a group of people. Secondly, it acknowledges that Delgo's race isn't the original inhabitants; they had migrated to the area as refugees from an unsustainable environment. Removing the native inhabitants, who have lived there for thousands of years, would indeed be ethically questionable in this context.
The same thing for Delgo's race as they were pretty much refugees trying to move from a very unsustainable environment.
For both Delgo's race and the winged race to have established their respective territories, they would have had to relocate people from the other side's race and place them in designated regions. This process would have been challenging and could have caused significant disruptions.
Enforcing the idea that specific areas are exclusively reserved for one group and that others must vacate would indeed be a difficult and unfortunate situation. This would be particularly challenging in a highly integrated society where both groups have been living in close proximity to each other.
This situation could also lead to the displacement of interracial families, creating complex dilemmas. Imagine a scenario where someone from Delgo's race adopts a child from the winged race, or vice versa. What happens to these families?
Determining where such families should live becomes a challenging question. Separating them would be problematic, as it raises the issue of deciding which territory is more suitable. Additionally, it could result in separating parents from their children, further complicating the situation.
Considering the deep-seated animosity and the history of genocide between the two races, placing a biracial child in an environment where they are a minority amidst racial tension becomes a precarious predicament. Being the sole representative of their ethnicity in a hostile environment presents significant challenges, as they may face hatred without any support or allies.
Yeah, these are interesting and valid reasons. But Pig summed it up better with “You can’t fly, we hate you and are going to kill you cause we are better”
All jokes aside, the Treaty is purely used as a plot point. No sense having a decent, politically polished Treaty with clear and concise concessions and nuanced boundaries.
I remember reading an article about someone going to see this for a magazine or website and the theater employees were amazed they'd actually sold a ticket. The person said they were the only one in the theater from start to finish.
The character design (the Whoville meets Planet of the Apes look) makes me irrationally upset that any human ever paid more than $1.50 to witness this in a theatrical setting.
I swear I come back to this UA-cam channel and like memories of movies that I could’ve swore I just made up in my head as a child or being reviewed and I’m just like so it wasn’t a fever dream that I have to go through. We live in this room, or is it getting just going? Wow that was real someone made that it does exist.
I laughed so hard at your opening bit! thank you the sustenance, content daddy!

Could you imagine if they called this Gato and make the animated characters look like cats while retaining everything else about the movie?
I remember seeing the animation and thinking, “this looks like that movie Dinosaurs”, but that’s it.
I remember getting this out of the library on dvd as a kid I think because I mixed the title up with Rango. I thought it was ugly and boring, but nothing specific stuck.
I actually saw a review of this movie a couple years back and forgot all about it. Never thought I'd see someone bring it up again.
9 years on this movie and then the end result turned out to be as what Rebeltaxi and some others call it, the Duke Nukem Forever of Animated Movies with a script that feels like someone hastily cobbled together several tropes from TVTropes
One cold night i was house sitting for my Dad. It was storming outside so I decided to throw on a nice animated kids film. I'm not sure if it was the single beer (35 at the time) or just the blandness of this movie. I remember almost exactly what you described. Love the video
Delgo may be a pretty big bomb, but unlike Morbius it didn't bomb TWICE xD
Oh my gosh, I'm not the only person who saw this? A movie rental place near my university had a copy of it back when I was still attending, and I like fantasy so I gave it a try. 'Underwhelming' was an understatement, I remember thinking it was just another pretty bland attempt at Romeo and Juliet. I remember liking one of the aerial battles between the two commanders, however, at the time it was the most interesting choreography I'd seen involving two characters with wings moving in a three dimensional environment. I also remember the 'comedic relief' character being actively painful to watch, which is why I never went back to try and get a peek at that fight scene again. -_-*
I remember borrowing this movie on dvd from the library when I was younger and absolutely loving it. I thought it was so creative and didn’t understand why no one talked about it lol. like genuinely this WAS a beloved childhood movie to me
I remember watching this movie as a kid and I can confidently say I liked the cool rock magic and also I'm relieved that it indeed isn't a figment of my imagination and this movie truly exists
You tell a really good story dude. The way you speak is engaging and just drags you in, first time watcher, instant subscriber.
“Don’t gamble kids, you might start a war” is still somehow more effective than the narrative that D.A.R.E ever tried to sell us
I kinda feel like I've unlocked hidden memories after watching this, when I first saw the thumbnail it didn't seem familiar, but as I got further into the video my brain was like a theater
I always assumed that this was some horrible nightmare i had, both glad and horrified to know that's not the case.
About the plushie; in the past a lot of dolls were made with plush body and a porcelain head
This makes me remember the first time when I saw this particular movie poster, I was a socially awkward 14 year old girl who was reading Ranger Rick magazines at my local library. The poster made me intrigued about the movie but the library never offered the movie as an option in their movie collection and now years later I see the poster and it makes me think of this story 😂
