Behind The Magic Of Hocus Pocus 2
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лип 2024
- Disney Plus is bringing us a brand new installment of Hocus Pocus! Hocus Pocus 2 gives us our veteran cast, Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as the Sanderson sisters, as well as, Lilia Buckingham, Whitney Peak, and Belissa Escobedo to star alongside them. We also get two brand new musical numbers, heavily influenced by our three witches, and some fabulous guest stars from RuPaul’s Drag Race to perform with them! Did you know that Bette Midler is a major part of the reason behind the sequel being made? It all started with her wanting to wear her old Winnie costume from 1993, but Disney was unable to lend it to her, so she checked on eBay. She was astounded at how many Hocus Pocus costumes, memorabilia, and other pieces of merchandise were for sale because when the film came out almost thirty years ago, it was considered a box office flop. As she noticed though, how it had actually become a Halloween cult classic, she would call up the studio every year! That’s dedication. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy loved playing their roles as the Sanderson sisters and were always on board to jump back into it if the opportunity came up. Their favorite part about filming these movies was getting to fly on their broomsticks, mops, and other cleaning supplies! We have a lot to talk about here, so stick around until the end of the video to make sure you’re fully prepped for this new adventure!

I LOVED THE MOVIE❤❤❤!!!!!
I haven't seen the first one
Man. When
I saw the trailer. I shed many tears of enjoyment because my favorite movie has come back with a sequel
The movie was the best. And funny aswell
Me too
Same
My opinion - the end was very beautiful, sad but beautiful. The love for the sisters made Winifred a human for a sec.
Yes! I loved the ending. It was so unexpected yet perfect. Like, it showed that after all this time, despite everything that happened to her, she could still love.
didn’t really make sense with her character though. Winnie has always been selfish and wanted to be all powerful, so this was just another lame attempt at Disney trying to make people sympathize with a villain and make them have a heart deep down… didn’t care for it. It felt way too forced.
There will be a 3rd movie,there’s another black flame candle
My husband watched the first one when he was 5. Our son watched the second one when he was 5. Felt like a full circle moment.
I was 4 when I first watched it the night it came on tv with my mother she passed away in may my daughter is 4 and watched it with me so you know the ending had me balling my eyes out so many memories with my mother was made and I know it’ll be a memory my daughter will always remember as well
@@PinkPaws88 ❤️❤️
I think I was 5 or 6 years old when I watched it Edit: the first movie sorry 😅
@@lanahaul our last name is Williams too! Lol
It’s been 30 years right down to the day. Now the witch’s are back and there’s hell to pay 👹.
I loved the first one, loved the second one, await the third one😂🤷🏻♀️
Hocus Pocus has always had a special place in my heart ❤
You have a terrible taste. The first will always be the best.
@@CityChristina I love them both either way ❤
Me to 🥹🥹
@@CityChristina its her opinion and she said she loves both.
Agreed! Hocus Pocus will always and forever be one of my favorite Halloween movies! It never gets old! I've seen the first one so many times I know every word by heart!
I feel Winnifred's redemption at the end was amazing because she realized that power meant nothing without her sisters. No matter how much they fought Winnifred realized her sisters were more important. The backstory proved this. All she wanted was to protect her family and not be separated from them. Unfortunately the power got to her head for a while and her ego got the best of her. She thought killing the Mayor who was apparently the descendant of the guy in the beginning who tried to separate her sisters. Wouldn't you do whatever you can to protect your family? Even if it meant diving into the dark arts?
Winnifred's Redemption did feel a bit quickly forced in my opinion. Since Disney has a mood for trilogies it would've been cool to leave it on a cliffhanger and in the 3rd film Winnifred realizes that she can't live without her coven and goes to find her sisters. It's like Disney realized they were running out of time to make it in the time slot and hurried it.
I'm sry I disagree why does she get redemption? They murdered children for repeats sake. Even tried killing a teenage boy
I was cautiously optimistic with how this movie would turn out because, let’s face it: Disney has a way of ruining classics with their remakes and sequels. But my boyfriend and I absolutely loved it! We were amused from beginning to end, shared many cackles, and felt quite fulfilled with the ending. I will definitely watch it again! One thing I wish was that there was more suspense/consequence of them returning 30 years later. It lacked the mild edge-of-your-seat factor the first film had, and instead took a more comedic approach. Don’t get me wrong, I liked the humor! It made for a fun adventure and tickled my nostalgic heart. However, the classic made it feel a bit more realistic. Salem felt like less of a movie set, the characters felt easier to connect with because they were your average kids, and their adrenaline-fueled reactions and decisions felt appropriate for the circumstances and their limited resources as teens. The characters and setting in this film, besides the OG witches of course, felt harder for me to connect with. I give it a 7/10.💕
well said!
@@shelbyunderwood5183 Thank you!
@@elroyjohnson8356 are you skipping it because of diversity?
Fr! Like it made sense. There were some moments that felt forced. It was fun
Did we watch the same movie?
This was another blatantly obvious politically infused, woke, post feminist bull shittery of a train wreck from Disney.
The overacting from the children version of the sisters at the start. Showing the Sanderson sisters not as evil witches but as stunning and brave feminists who stood up against the patriarchy. The main characters were thrown together based on their "diversity" rather than their acting prowess with 0 character arch, making them unrelatable.
Then they throw in several trans people for absolutely no reason other than Disney being all stunning and brave.
The Sanderson sisters being surprised by the salt when they new immediately what it did in the first movie is only one of many inconsistencies.
The Sanderson sisters are sanitized versions of their previous selfs. Gone from child murdering and soul devouring witches 8 the latest liberal woke jokes.
Blahhhhh. Disney membership canceled.
They did this right by getting so much input from Bette, Kathy, and SJP. Plus so much unanswered questions in plot that were brought to light like their origin stories. There isn't many fans who didn't wonder where they came from, other than the original throwback as adults.
They looked like they had a lot of fun on set!
Went to a Hocus Pocus party last night! It was outside and it was on a big screen. Great time, GREAT MOVIE! I will watch the first one and then the second one in Halloween! ❤️🎉🎊
I'm so glad they never deleted this masterpiece I love Hocus Pocus I've watched it since I was 6. The new movie of Hocus Pocus is good too I laughed so hard at some of the scenes. But other than that, nothing was bad about the movie. So, it just comes to me saying love it!
I hated the selfie part
Like whyy???
The ending made me cry omg. 😭
I loved the movie. The back story was great an references was spot on. An after the end credits will there be a 3rd movie who knows.
Yesss i thought the same… hopefully there is a third one for the new witches
I can't understand how someone cannot love this movie. I saw the first one in the theatre. This movie is truly hilarious. I love the scene when they go into the Walgreens with the sliding doors. So much fun. These women are truly gifted.
Because they took away the threat. The witches aren't bad because women have to be sympathetic these days and as per Disney, all the men have to be dumb.
It felt like a low budget Hallmark movie. The first will always be the best.
People don’t like it because all of the lure and dark sinister elements of the original were completely stripped out of it and replaced with humor for grade school children. The writing was dreadful And not even the three main actresses could save it. I don’t understand how anyone could watch the original and think this was a reasonable follow up in any manner. The musical numbers were absolutely atrocious especially the first one which was so random. They lacked the vigor in the songs and it felt more like it should’ve been in high school musical rather than hocus-pocus. At least in the first one she got an idea of what the song was about from the person singing before her this one she just somehow knows this modern song. The plot was a mess and if finding this guy was so important don’t you think they would’ve mentioned it at least once in the first film? They had all the material to make a true sequel and follow up but instead the humanized the witches and made them sad and boring. Even though they were evil in the original you were kind of rooting for them.
Just because you enjoy it doesn't mean everyone else has to.
The end was so sad I cried
I know. It got me too. I think it was my favorite scene because it was so real.
I think the ending was absolutely flawless.
I felt like at the end of the movie Winnie reformed her ways. She wasn’t evil after what happened she became a sweet lady. It was kinda nice
Typical witch, doing what she has to do.
I absolutely loved it ❤ a little tame and campy, but it was wonderful. The ending was perfect, brought a tear to my eye. So sweet! This is a perfect movie for kids Halloween parties, no unnecessary gore, just fun. Bette, Kathy and Jessica looked great, the music was great and the backstory was well written. 👍🏽
Watching it today and I can’t wait!! ❤
I watched the movie 2 TIMES AND I WASNT EVEN TIRED I TOTALLY LOVED IT 😍😍😍😍🥰🥰😘😘😂😂
My favorite moments are Billy with Winifred.
It was so much fun and the songs were iconic, I enjoyed the back story, we had a Hocus Pocus party, making memories with family.

Wonderful movie I loved it
completely random but last year in my neighborhood ( wondering if they'll do it again because of hocus pocus 2? ) for Halloween these three ladies dressed as the sanderson sisters and acted as them! it was quite fun.
ps: i was coraline that year.
June 17 is my birthday😂 and they’re fixing the movie in JUNE That would be a perfect gift if you did it on June 17 if anyone is even listening😅
The movie was so good
Love It 😘
This movie was fun! I didnt love, I didn't hate it, but I liked it....
Fun fact: The first movie came out when I was born :D
Also, I'm fairly certain that Billy inspired Captain jack Sparrow, since their movements and behaviour are pretty similar :D Seriously though, I'm extremely grateful for all the love, care and passion they put into this, this is genuinely my favourite movie and it means the world to me that they really took the time to do it properly :D
I loved the movie
Not a fan of the second one. Hopefully if they make a third, they get rid of Anne Fletcher and bring back the original writers.
It was great
‘Hocus Pocus 2’ Brings the Witches and Magic Back to the Halloween Season.
Hocus Pocus was not a box office success by any means, it became a Halloween cult classic and left an indelible mark on a generation. Hocus Pocus 2 manages to recapture the magic without sacrificing the integrity of the story that came before or jeopardizing the future of the newly minted franchise. As thrilling as it is to see the Sanderson Sisters reunited, the film’s strength lies within the performances of the incoming cast: Becca (Whitney Peak), Izzy (Belissa Escobedo), and Cassie Traske (Lilia Buckingham).
I love the movie too
Man.... I hope Disney sees that the missed out on not putting it on theaters. I'm sure the ratings was high.
I love de second guri
