I put Maleficent in my comment, but I kinda want you to do Beauty and the Beast next because of Emma Watson (AKA Hermione/Heather) plays Belle. I so want you to do a Harry Potter joke with that! We’ll just have to wait and see. #Bingers
You should react to Disney's live action Maleficent, its really good. If focuses on what if she wasn't as bad as you thought and I absolutely love it. Trailer (if you're interested): m.ua-cam.com/video/JvsnLRF1ipE/v-deo.html
I'm so happy that you understood the message of Cinderella. Most people say she's weak and is a bad example for little girls, but I think she's one of the most strong princess, cause even though she had a very miserable life and was abused, she remained kind, brave, optimistc and faithful to her beliefs. She is indeed a great example, not only for little girls, but to everyone, and that is why she's my favorite princess.
Its good to be kind, but kindness doesn't mean you keep letting people treat you with such disrespect/abuse. What happened to boundaries? It's not healthy to keep "turning the other cheek" either. I don't think its a healthy example for anyone, let alone kids. This situation can easily translate to real life i.e. a school bully. So little kids should keep being punching bags cause they've been told to be kind? No, I don't think so. Kindness should be reserved for those who don't abuse you and are kind in return.
@@relaxingheaven you have to see Cinderella's context. She's a girl in the 19th century... I see a lot of people saying she should just leave to escape the abuse after saying a few things to her stepmother and sisters, but.. she can't. How is she supposed to survive in a time where woman couldn't do nothing without their parents or husband? also, that was the house of her family for generations, of course she wouldn't leave. She had reasons to stay there and endure the abuse. She fought with everything she could, and when the opportunity to scape presented itself, she didn't hesitate a second to take it. So no, I don't think Cinderella is a example of tolerating her abusers because of kindness, she's actually a true fighter, one of the biggest of all disney, but people disdain of her just because she never were mean, or actually fought with her body or weapons. When in fact she used the greatest weapon this world has: HOPE.
@@thatsroughbuddy_ You said everything so perfectly. This is 1000% the message that Cinderella is meant to send to girls, women, and people in general. She didn't let this suffering turn her bitter (what the stepmother wanted her to become).
This live-action was a love letter to the original it wasn't trying to take the place of the original but to compliment it. That's why it's my favourite Disney Live action.
Same! They gave Cindi more agency, allowed them to meet as equals before the ball, actually showed them getting to know each other and let us get to know her step family as people and not just textbook villains. And I ADORE that they made the prince an actual person!! In the original movie he didn't even have a real name, he was just Prince Charming. Now he has a name, a friend, morals and an actual personality. *chef's kiss* c'est magnifique!
"I forgive you" actually is more-or-less Ella giving step mom the finger. Ella doesn't intend it as such, cuz yeah, she's a bigger person. But step mom's ultimate goal was to break Cinderella's spirit out of spite; make her mean and bitter too. "I forgive you" just cements for her, that she FAILED. Cinderella is still as kind and hopeful as ever & is STILL a better person than her; and she's moving on to be the happier person too.
The dress designer is a genius! Cinderella is in theory wearing a plain dress with minor decorations but the way the tule is layered makes her dress have the fullest skirt and each movement changes the skirt's color🤩
I read that about 9 dresses were used. I think they were different lengths. I remember seeing a video at some point on UA-cam I think about it and it gave reasons why.
Yesss, and they actually used different shades of blue to add more depth! This is what the costume designer said in one of the interviews: "The overriding color on the top layer is cornflower blue, but then there's other blues and greens and lilacs all mixed together, and they move around each other for a final effect which is like a watercolor." ✨
Bella Mae Designs have a really good breakdown of the dress AND she also made the same dress as accurate as she can! I highly recommend watching her videos about the Cinderella dress. 😌
Two minutes in and Billy already has a thing for Ella’s mom. Rightfully so because he had a thing for Peggy Carter who was also portrayed by the amazing Hayley Atwell
Throw It In: -Ella dancing while singing "Lavender's Blue" in the attic was improvised by Lily James. -Sophie McShera and Holliday Granger improvised their lines on set for the stepsisters' first scene.
Cinderella could be all mean cause of the situation she was in with her being mistreated by her stepmother and stepsisters,but she remains nice and sweet throughout. That truly is a wonderful message to everyone out there. Don’t let a bad situation make you become a bad person.
@@arielplays5629 i personally think that Cinderella not standing up for herself could be the result of the constant abuse from her stepmom and sisters. Usually abuse victims keep living with the abuser because it’s not easy to go against the abuser’s will
Fun Fact! In the Brothers Grimm version of Cinderella, the stepsisters cut off their toes to make the glass slippers fit. And when they served as bridesmaids in Cinderella's wedding, doves pecked out their eyes. Apparently some version of Cinderella has been around for like...2000 years. Some of the original versions would probably be much more to your liking 😂
One cut off her toes, the other cut off her heel. Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White all had violence in them, but that's German fairy-tales for you.
So you watched the Brandy Cinderella movie, A Cinderella Story, Enchanted and Ella Enchanted(which are kinda sorta Cinderella adaptions) and now the live action Disney Cinderella. You know what this means right? You're going to corner the market on UA-cam Reactions to Cinderella films. Billy "Cinderella Superfan" Binges, we stan 💙
Growing up I was never into Cinderella’s story, preferring Jasmine and Mulan. However, I LOVE this live action so much. It’s the only Disney live action I truly like and have rewatched many times.
I TOTALLY get you! I was definitely into Mulan and other characters way after the original princesses and this movie actually made me really like Cinderella as a character
You're just too funny 🤣 Fun fact: The moment I heard the song (the lulluby) I kept it in my thoughts and new someday I would sing it to my kids.. years later I sang it every night as a newborn and even now as a toddler 🥰 Im not a singer but he loves it 😊
I didn't think Billy was going to enjoy this movie so much and really appreciate the magical transform with so much "that. Was. _FABULOUS_ " energy but I'm living for it!
That's Richard Madden as the Prince. He played Robb Stark on Game of Thrones. Helena Bonham Carter (the fairy godmother) and Cate Blanchett (evil stepmother) are always brilliant of course.
Author's Saving Throw: This film makes a few alterations in response to criticisms of the original film. For example, Prince has more of a personality and has an actual name, and he and Ella meet each other well before the ball. *The Prince's hidden presence in the search party ensures that Cinderella is found.* And that's not all... *Lady Tremaine is actually punished in the end, albeit by her own design...she moves herself and her daughters out of the kingdom because she cannot bear to live in the same vicinity as Cinderella. Her defeat has utterly broken her.*
This version got a lot of backlash when it first came out, but it was one of my favorite movies for years. It maybe my favorite Cinderella remake, after "Ever After" (1998, I think), which I would also super highly recommend. It's much more real world.
@@abbeyBominable123 A lot of people have been up in arms about Disney remakes. The same happened with the live-action Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and the new Lion King. There is a HUGE Nostalgia crowd that argues Disney should be focused on making new movies and not ruining movies that are already "iconic and perfect as they are" 😂
11:05 That smile and lip bite is the kind that used to cause wars to rage across continents. She does it very, VERY well. Of all of Disney's live action remakes, this is the only one I actually have liked. It managed to throw a unique twist in that I actually didn't see coming and managed to still be a fairy tale. It didn't take itself too seriously or deeply mess with the story itself. Also, her ball gown. Sometimes people wear dresses. Sometimes the dress just compliments the person. This dress is definitely complimenting her. Whoever made it... major props to them. It's gorgeous and understated.
Oh this is a beautiful live action Cinderella! I feel like it’s one of the underrated ones. It was done really well. Definitely do more Disney live action movies for sure! Excluding The Lion King though, that one was complete trash lol. I nominate Maleficent #Bingers
Yes I wasn't a big fan of The Lion King. Among other things that I don't remember I remember not liking scars voice actor for singing. I like the way that the animated scar sang his song better.
I love how Disney reimagined Cinderella's story in live-action film. I love the gown, the glass slippers, Lily James as Cinderella, the storyline... All of it. Now I know I am a TOTAL fanatic of Disney's Beauty And The Beast, but even I have to admit... Cinderella 2015 remake is just absolutely beautiful. P.S. My cat's name is Melon and she is my baby. I love her.
@@nemashan3701 I wasn't disappointed by it initially (wasn't wowed by it either, but wasn't a fan of the original) but seeing critiques of how simple it was, esp considering the fashion in that era, I have to agree. I think it's pretty but nothing impressive like this dress was
I LOVE this version of Cinderella. From the costumes, to the characters, the entire movie is a delight😊. Definitely one of my favourite movies to watch with my family
I actually liked this version of Cinderella. Everytime I watched this movie, I remembered Zendaya for MET Gala 2019 when she dressed as Cinderella🥿Also, you should react to Mirror Mirror, my favourite version of Snow White#bingers
Underrated scene in this movie: I love when Kit curls up beside his father and just cries. It really emphasizes how that loss of a parent makes you feel like a child - no matter your age - and craving that comfort.
This is one of the very few live-action movies that I personally like, while it can never top the original it had its own twist with it, loved the reaction as always 👍
I honestly like this version of Cinderella way more then the original animated one. But I’ll always love the animated on tho. Love your videos billy you always make me laugh. Could you react to Anastasia once upon a time? #bingers
Me too! I was surprised with how much I enjoyed this life action adaptation. I like it better too! I was never a huge fan of the really old Disney Princess movies even the little mermaid as a character despite me loving the movie as a kid. But movies like Mulan and Hercules are still special to me.
I'm so serious, I was having the worst night. Crying them ugly tears and everything. Turned on your video and legit was able to smile again, so thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
I always loved that the prince curls up to the king as he dies. It is like you finally get to see an actual father and son not just a king and prince. You finally get to see that a grown man can be just as emotional as a woman when someone they love dies. The prince was not made of emotionless steel in that moment. He was just a little boy who lost is dad.
i actually prefer the live action to the original animated one. i love the vibrancy and the diversity of the movie. it’s just so pretty to watch and i think this is the best one they’ve done so far aside from aladdin
23:40 i think i read somewhere like a list of fun facts from the behind-the-scenes was that they actually had trouble with the prince's horse riding pants bc it really emphasized what he had going on. so i think the actor had to wear like a dancer's belt in most of his scenes to help tuck it away. i think this and Maleficent are my favorite of the live-action remakes, bc this one added some plot elements here and there to make it interesting but it also didn't butcher what made the original disney animated film so magical.
I would love to see you do Sleeping Beauty next! The original animated film is great but the newer live action spin offs, Maleficent and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, is what really made me love the series as a whole. Also my dog’s name is Daisy and she’s an English Bulldog!
Glass slipper: Cinderella Apple: Snow White Eternal sleep: Sleeping Beauty (or Maleficent as she is the villain in the original version of Sleeping Beauty from Disney) These are the Disney versions at least, the original stories from Grimm are usually different and quite a lot darker and creepier.
I love this live action adaption so much! One of my favorites along with the live action Aladdin! #Bingers Aladdin (Live Action Adaption) and The Emperor’s New Groove
I’m so happy to see you watch this movie! I’m never certain if this one or the Brandy Cinderella is my favorite. Depends on the day. This one is my feel good movie, tho. I love that it has no time for cynicism and pessimism. It is sincerely wholesome and makes Cinderella’s kindness out to be a strength rather than subservience. Lily James (Cinderella) is such a beautiful and talented actress. To be able to walk that line between a grounded performance and the fantasy of fairy tale without coming off fake or over the top is a skill and she did it flawlessly. And that dress is movie magic on its own.
This live action was actually good. Also I like how you talked about Cinderella. Girl lost both her parents and was abused/bullied by her stepmom and stepsisters yet she stayed kind. Cinderella, Tiana, and Mulan are my favorite Disney princesses💜
In earlier versions of the story, Cinderella's dad didn't actually die. He was there for all of the abuse and never stopped it. He didn't even recognise his own daughter at the ball. Also, the step sisters had their eyes pecked out by birds, and once Cinderella was made queen, she made her step mother dance on hot coals until she died.
Loved this movie and the costumes. Can see why Cinderella was nominated for an Oscar for Costume Design. And no the stepmother didn't kill either of her husband's in the Grimm version or Perrault version.
24:56 Cinderellas father wasn't dead in the Original fairytale but just doesn't do anything against the mistreatment of his daughter. The Stepsisters also actually get "punished". Cinderellas birds pick out their eyes. The original versions are definitely more brutal than the Disney versions.
Legit this is one of the few live actions I think is genuinely good and was worth making. It's very respectful to the original and it got the freaking point of the story, which I think is very often overlooked or overwritten in most modern remakes
ever after will always be my favorite cinderella, followed by cinderella with brandy. this ones really good too. walking starbursts is now in my vocabulary when someone annoys me next time lol
I loved it when you said ✨SENSATIONAL✨ And yes this Cinderella live action is so great and one of it's original soundtrack STRONG by Sonna Rele is one of my all time favs! Thanks for another great video Billy!
Lily James is an amazing actress, and a perfect casting for Cinderella lol. I'd love to see Billy react to some of her other films in the future, i.e.: - Pride & Prejudice & Zombies (acc set in a similar time period to this, but she plays more of a badass) - Baby Driver - Momma Mia: Here We Go Again
One thing that really set tris movie apart from the other remakes for me was how excited everyone was to be there. If you watch the bonus features on the DVD, everyone from the major actors, to the set and costume designers, to the musicians, and even the extras were so happy to be there and to be a part of the movie. Everyone was there trying to have a good time and make the best movie they could, and that enthusiasm really elevated this film.
I liked the 1950s animated Cinderella movie. It was so more intense and more realistic to an actual abuse victim. I’m an abuse survivor and I relate a lot to the original Cinderella the most.
You need to complete the series with Ever After then start on your Snow White journey with Snow White: A Tale of Terror. Such a fantastic underrated film.
Cinderella is my favorite live action Disney Princess movie! Also, would you do a reaction to Prince of Egypt? It’s a severely underrated, beautifully animated film💙 #bingers
This was my favourite childhood movie! I even got a tattoo dedicated to this movie! My tattoo is “have courage and be kind”. It owns a huge piece of my childhood. And will forever be one of my favourites 😭💕
You should read the Grimm brothers version, since the story is folklore & has many different versions it’s hard to say what the original story is but you’d probably love the karma that comes for the sisters & their mother in that one.
Excited to watch this commentary Billy 😄. It’s definitely my favorite live action version of Cinderella and watched it with my Grandma in the Theaters when it came out. Also have my water ready with me to watch😊. Since you have watched Coco & Encanto I recommend “The Book Of Life” it’s similar to Coco & on Disney+ #Bingers
Definitely looking forward to watching this commentary reaction. This is one of my favorite live-action Disney remakes. With a great cast. Got my nightly glass of cold water ready to drink while watching this video. 😊 I very highly recommend the 2008 musical movie "Mamma Mia" and the 2018 sequel "Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again". #Bingers
Lol i love how you say that you never knew the story of Cinderella while forgetting that you reacted to the story of Cinderella before with the Musical starring Brandy, Whitney Houston, and Whoopi Goldberg🤣🤣🤣🤣
Billy, you give me seratonin. Thank you for brightening my day. Your laughter is just so contagious and sincere, I can't help but smile when I watch your videos.
I'm so unbelievably happy that you finally watched this movie! I love it with a passion because my mom had always called me her Cinderella because of my gentle nature and kind heart-- especially as a child, just willing to trust and love everybody. It's no wonder I'd felt a connection to every Cinderella story adaptation growing up such as A Cinderella Story(with Hilary Duff), Ever After(with Drew Barrymore), Ella Enchanted(with Anne Hathaway), etc. but I'd never felt her struggle until I started my first job after high school. It was at a local daycare and I was hired as a teachers aid...but in only a matter of three months, they had refused to use my real name, avoided me or ignored me whenever I was in their classrooms, didn't respect my knowledge of childcare even though I'd been voluteering with kids since I was 12, and finally I was downgraded into being a janitor to clean the center as well as cook the meals. At first, I kept an open mind and tried to make excuses for them for their actions but one day while I was singing and doing the dishes after lunch-- which was Cinderella's song from this now that I think about it OMG! The children were in a line and walking back to their class but my door was open so I glanced over and smiled at them with a small wave to reassure them that I was still there and love them dearly. One teacher walked by and noticed, quickly directing her class to look forward and walk into the classroom. I kept up a smile until the kids were out of sight and then quietly closed the door and started to sob to myself. I can still remember crying myself to sleep some nights but keeping a smile for those kids and because God had a purpose for me to be there even if I didn't know it yet(and the wait was worth it, it's just too complex to type here). Sorry for the long story but I figured it would inspire other Cinderella's out there to ''Have Courage and Be Kind''. Thanks again Billy.
"Walking Starburst" lol. I live for your descriptions! I have five minions. Three cats - Kaiju, Tiberius (for James T. Kirk), and Jinx, and two dogs- Wicket and Willow (named for Warwick Davis characters). As always, #Bingers My Cousin Vinny. Also: Johnny Dangerously, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, and Star Wars.
" Cinderella was the one who fell asleep, cause she ate that apple, right?" Lol You talking about Aurora and Snow White in the same sentence, and there's nothing about Cinderella in it 🤣
I like this live action the most out of all of them because there is still some Disney magic, however I still prefer the animated version because Cinderella had more sass, and so did the prince even though we saw less of him. As well as other things were done a bit better.
Admittedly I'm not all that fussed on this version. It looks lovely and everything and I don't hate it or anything I just kind of have no emotions watching it I'm not super into it 🤣 but that's just me. Lily James is awesome though. Last thing I saw her in she was playing Pamela Anderson and it is WILD! She's so good.
*The Original:* she fights for her freedom and doesn't give up *The Remake:* she just spins around and doesn't do anything and gives up A truly STRONG female character, and an accurate rep of Walt Disney's favorite story. Yes Cinderella was actually his favorite tale cause he related to her.

For example, Prince has more of a personality and has an actual name, and he and Ella meet each other well before the ball. *The Prince's hidden presence in the search party ensures that Cinderella is found.* And that's not all... *Lady Tremaine is actually punished in the end, albeit by her own design...she moves herself and her daughters out of the kingdom because she cannot bear to live in the same vicinity as Cinderella. Her defeat has utterly broken her.*
There was also the disguise magic that kept her step-family from recognizing her at the ball.
This actually wasn’t too bad. I’m glad Billy decided to watch it.
This version got a lot of backlash when it first came out, but it was one of my favorite movies for years. It maybe my favorite Cinderella remake, after "Ever After" (1998, I think), which I would also super highly recommend. It's much more real world.
i agree ever after is more realistic and heartfelt than any of the other ones
@@ivonnegonzalez43 and I think he would for sure like the main character more 😂 She is very rebellious on the down low.
@@LexitaMai I agree he would like it more and she is more rebellious😂 there's more clean clap backs in that one too
I don't remember it having backlash. I thought it was really well received by most people...
@@abbeyBominable123 A lot of people have been up in arms about Disney remakes. The same happened with the live-action Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and the new Lion King. There is a HUGE Nostalgia crowd that argues Disney should be focused on making new movies and not ruining movies that are already "iconic and perfect as they are" 😂
Please add Ever After to you list to watch!
11:05 That smile and lip bite is the kind that used to cause wars to rage across continents. She does it very, VERY well. Of all of Disney's live action remakes, this is the only one I actually have liked. It managed to throw a unique twist in that I actually didn't see coming and managed to still be a fairy tale. It didn't take itself too seriously or deeply mess with the story itself. Also, her ball gown. Sometimes people wear dresses. Sometimes the dress just compliments the person. This dress is definitely complimenting her. Whoever made it... major props to them. It's gorgeous and understated.
I haven't watched this version of Cinderella so it was cool seeing it this way. She'll never be Brandy's version but this was cute too
I wish Billy would watch „Ever After“. Best Cinderella remake there is (in my opinion) #bingers
Facts
Agreed! I love this one!!
Ever After is by far my favorite
Oh this is a beautiful live action Cinderella! I feel like it’s one of the underrated ones. It was done really well. Definitely do more Disney live action movies for sure! Excluding The Lion King though, that one was complete trash lol. I nominate Maleficent #Bingers
Yes I wasn't a big fan of The Lion King. Among other things that I don't remember I remember not liking scars voice actor for singing. I like the way that the animated scar sang his song better.
Yuss Maleficent 1 and 2. 1 especially
"Now why is that glass slipper stronger than any relationship you have ever been in?"
I was not ready for that😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love how Disney reimagined Cinderella's story in live-action film. I love the gown, the glass slippers, Lily James as Cinderella, the storyline... All of it. Now I know I am a TOTAL fanatic of Disney's Beauty And The Beast, but even I have to admit... Cinderella 2015 remake is just absolutely beautiful.
P.S. My cat's name is Melon and she is my baby. I love her.
the dress for belle (i’m so sorry to say) as beautiful as it was…i had SUCH high expectations for her yellow dress bc of this movie
@@nemashan3701 I wasn't disappointed by it initially (wasn't wowed by it either, but wasn't a fan of the original) but seeing critiques of how simple it was, esp considering the fashion in that era, I have to agree. I think it's pretty but nothing impressive like this dress was
Such a cute name for a cat. 😍😍😍🐱🐱🐱
Thank you
I thought Belle’s dress (live-action remake) was pretty. I mean, don’t get wrong.
I LOVE this version of Cinderella. From the costumes, to the characters, the entire movie is a delight😊. Definitely one of my favourite movies to watch with my family
I actually liked this version of Cinderella. Everytime I watched this movie, I remembered Zendaya for MET Gala 2019 when she dressed as Cinderella🥿Also, you should react to Mirror Mirror, my favourite version of Snow White#bingers
Yes and Snow White a tale of terror. I think he would like both.
Underrated scene in this movie: I love when Kit curls up beside his father and just cries. It really emphasizes how that loss of a parent makes you feel like a child - no matter your age - and craving that comfort.
This is one of the very few live-action movies that I personally like, while it can never top the original it had its own twist with it, loved the reaction as always 👍
I honestly like this version of Cinderella way more then the original animated one. But I’ll always love the animated on tho. Love your videos billy you always make me laugh. Could you react to Anastasia once upon a time? #bingers
Me too! I was surprised with how much I enjoyed this life action adaptation. I like it better too! I was never a huge fan of the really old Disney Princess movies even the little mermaid as a character despite me loving the movie as a kid. But movies like Mulan and Hercules are still special to me.
I think the best live action version of Cinderella is "Ever After" with Drew Barrymore, Angelica Houston and Dougray Scott... #bingers
this movie is so magical. lily james is the perfect cinderella
I'm so serious, I was having the worst night. Crying them ugly tears and everything. Turned on your video and legit was able to smile again, so thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
I hope you're doing okay, and never give up; you got this! ❤❤❤
I’m really sorry. Definitely watch more things that give you joy, it definitely helps me when I’m in a crappy mood.
I always loved that the prince curls up to the king as he dies. It is like you finally get to see an actual father and son not just a king and prince. You finally get to see that a grown man can be just as emotional as a woman when someone they love dies. The prince was not made of emotionless steel in that moment. He was just a little boy who lost is dad.
fun fact: the actress who played Cinderella's mother is Haley Atwell aka Peggy Carter in the MCU
i actually prefer the live action to the original animated one. i love the vibrancy and the diversity of the movie. it’s just so pretty to watch and i think this is the best one they’ve done so far aside from aladdin
23:40 i think i read somewhere like a list of fun facts from the behind-the-scenes was that they actually had trouble with the prince's horse riding pants bc it really emphasized what he had going on. so i think the actor had to wear like a dancer's belt in most of his scenes to help tuck it away.
i think this and Maleficent are my favorite of the live-action remakes, bc this one added some plot elements here and there to make it interesting but it also didn't butcher what made the original disney animated film so magical.
I would love to see you do Sleeping Beauty next! The original animated film is great but the newer live action spin offs, Maleficent and Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, is what really made me love the series as a whole.
Also my dog’s name is Daisy and she’s an English Bulldog!
That's so cute! 😍😍😍🐶🐶🐶
@@monsterhanna6691 aww thank you💜
Glass slipper: Cinderella
Apple: Snow White
Eternal sleep: Sleeping Beauty (or Maleficent as she is the villain in the original version of Sleeping Beauty from Disney)
These are the Disney versions at least, the original stories from Grimm are usually different and quite a lot darker and creepier.
I love this live action adaption so much! One of my favorites along with the live action Aladdin!
#Bingers Aladdin (Live Action Adaption) and The Emperor’s New Groove
I’m so happy to see you watch this movie! I’m never certain if this one or the Brandy Cinderella is my favorite. Depends on the day. This one is my feel good movie, tho. I love that it has no time for cynicism and pessimism. It is sincerely wholesome and makes Cinderella’s kindness out to be a strength rather than subservience. Lily James (Cinderella) is such a beautiful and talented actress. To be able to walk that line between a grounded performance and the fantasy of fairy tale without coming off fake or over the top is a skill and she did it flawlessly. And that dress is movie magic on its own.
Continue being amazing Billy! If no one told YOU today, you matter, and I love you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Billy: Cinderella was the one who fell asleep cause she ate the apple right?
Me: did he literally- nevermind
I'm so happy you're doing Cinderella! This is one of my favorite Disney live actions! 💙😄
This live action was actually good. Also I like how you talked about Cinderella. Girl lost both her parents and was abused/bullied by her stepmom and stepsisters yet she stayed kind. Cinderella, Tiana, and Mulan are my favorite Disney princesses💜
This is honestly one of my favorite Disney movies, and while it's obviously not perfect and the original is better, I still love it either way. 💙💛
In earlier versions of the story, Cinderella's dad didn't actually die. He was there for all of the abuse and never stopped it. He didn't even recognise his own daughter at the ball. Also, the step sisters had their eyes pecked out by birds, and once Cinderella was made queen, she made her step mother dance on hot coals until she died.
Loved this movie and the costumes. Can see why Cinderella was nominated for an Oscar for Costume Design. And no the stepmother didn't kill either of her husband's in the Grimm version or Perrault version.
24:56 Cinderellas father wasn't dead in the Original fairytale but just doesn't do anything against the mistreatment of his daughter. The Stepsisters also actually get "punished". Cinderellas birds pick out their eyes. The original versions are definitely more brutal than the Disney versions.
The actress that plays Cinderella is Lilly James . She also plays pamela anderson on hulu. She looks alot like Pam Anderson you barely know it's Lily.
Legit this is one of the few live actions I think is genuinely good and was worth making.
It's very respectful to the original and it got the freaking point of the story, which I think is very often overlooked or overwritten in most modern remakes
The mom is Peggy Carter from the Marvel movies. The character that Captain America is in love with/ends up with.
Billy you'd love Mirror Mirror. It's a Snow White remake (the story about the apple) and the Evil Queen is so funny #Bingers
Yesssssss. The “puppy love” scene alone!!!
“There are pros and cons to this.” 😂😂
ever after will always be my favorite cinderella, followed by cinderella with brandy.
this ones really good too.
walking starbursts is now in my vocabulary when someone annoys me next time lol
I agree 💯
Billy simping for the Disney moms is SENDING ME 💀🤣
I loved it when you said ✨SENSATIONAL✨ And yes this Cinderella live action is so great and one of it's original soundtrack STRONG by Sonna Rele is one of my all time favs! Thanks for another great video Billy!
My favorite Cinderella movie would have to be Ever After with Drew Barrymore. Definitely one you should watch #bingers
Lily James is an amazing actress, and a perfect casting for Cinderella lol.
I'd love to see Billy react to some of her other films in the future, i.e.:
- Pride & Prejudice & Zombies (acc set in a similar time period to this, but she plays more of a badass)
- Baby Driver
- Momma Mia: Here We Go Again
"He looks like a musical theatre shark" Hahaha! That line had me rolling. If ya haven't already maybe watch shark boy and lava girl?
One thing that really set tris movie apart from the other remakes for me was how excited everyone was to be there. If you watch the bonus features on the DVD, everyone from the major actors, to the set and costume designers, to the musicians, and even the extras were so happy to be there and to be a part of the movie. Everyone was there trying to have a good time and make the best movie they could, and that enthusiasm really elevated this film.
✔Have courage.
✔✔Be kind.
✔✔✔Drink water.
Got it. ❤
Fun Fact: The Fairy Godmother is played by the same actress who played Bellatrix in "Harry Potter" (the crazy woman)
I liked the 1950s animated Cinderella movie. It was so more intense and more realistic to an actual abuse victim. I’m an abuse survivor and I relate a lot to the original Cinderella the most.
You need to complete the series with Ever After then start on your Snow White journey with Snow White: A Tale of Terror. Such a fantastic underrated film.
Cinderella is my favorite live action Disney Princess movie! Also, would you do a reaction to Prince of Egypt? It’s a severely underrated, beautifully animated film💙
#bingers
Her mom is also Peggy from captain America
Pride, prejudice and Zombies is Lily James Movie!!! Sooo gorgeous!!! #bingers
This was my favourite childhood movie! I even got a tattoo dedicated to this movie! My tattoo is “have courage and be kind”. It owns a huge piece of my childhood. And will forever be one of my favourites 😭💕
Thanks for making me laugh as I try to get over being sick.
Loved the reaction ❤️
You should read the Grimm brothers version, since the story is folklore & has many different versions it’s hard to say what the original story is but you’d probably love the karma that comes for the sisters & their mother in that one.
Excited to watch this commentary Billy 😄. It’s definitely my favorite live action version of Cinderella and watched it with my Grandma in the Theaters when it came out.
Also have my water ready with me to watch😊. Since you have watched Coco & Encanto I recommend “The Book Of Life” it’s similar to Coco & on Disney+ #Bingers
Definitely looking forward to watching this commentary reaction.
This is one of my favorite live-action Disney remakes. With a great cast.
Got my nightly glass of cold water ready to drink while watching this video. 😊
I very highly recommend the 2008 musical movie "Mamma Mia" and the 2018 sequel "Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again". #Bingers
oh yeah mamma mia and mamma mia 2 reactions would be great #Bingers
The costume design was *chefs kiss* BEAUTIFUL! Cate Blanchett’s dresses were stunning🙌🏼
Lol i love how you say that you never knew the story of Cinderella while forgetting that you reacted to the story of Cinderella before with the Musical starring Brandy, Whitney Houston, and Whoopi Goldberg🤣🤣🤣🤣
I definitely forgot the stories was related 😂 I thought it was something separate
@@BillyBinges
Watch a movie called flight plan #bingers
Billy, you give me seratonin. Thank you for brightening my day. Your laughter is just so contagious and sincere, I can't help but smile when I watch your videos.
Thank you so much ❤️ glad my videos brightening your day. Means a lot truly!
I'm so unbelievably happy that you finally watched this movie! I love it with a passion because my mom had always called me her Cinderella because of my gentle nature and kind heart-- especially as a child, just willing to trust and love everybody. It's no wonder I'd felt a connection to every Cinderella story adaptation growing up such as A Cinderella Story(with Hilary Duff), Ever After(with Drew Barrymore), Ella Enchanted(with Anne Hathaway), etc. but I'd never felt her struggle until I started my first job after high school. It was at a local daycare and I was hired as a teachers aid...but in only a matter of three months, they had refused to use my real name, avoided me or ignored me whenever I was in their classrooms, didn't respect my knowledge of childcare even though I'd been voluteering with kids since I was 12, and finally I was downgraded into being a janitor to clean the center as well as cook the meals. At first, I kept an open mind and tried to make excuses for them for their actions but one day while I was singing and doing the dishes after lunch-- which was Cinderella's song from this now that I think about it OMG! The children were in a line and walking back to their class but my door was open so I glanced over and smiled at them with a small wave to reassure them that I was still there and love them dearly. One teacher walked by and noticed, quickly directing her class to look forward and walk into the classroom. I kept up a smile until the kids were out of sight and then quietly closed the door and started to sob to myself. I can still remember crying myself to sleep some nights but keeping a smile for those kids and because God had a purpose for me to be there even if I didn't know it yet(and the wait was worth it, it's just too complex to type here). Sorry for the long story but I figured it would inspire other Cinderella's out there to ''Have Courage and Be Kind''. Thanks again Billy.
"Walking Starburst" lol. I live for your descriptions!
I have five minions. Three cats - Kaiju, Tiberius (for James T. Kirk), and Jinx, and two dogs- Wicket and Willow (named for Warwick Davis characters).
As always, #Bingers My Cousin Vinny. Also: Johnny Dangerously, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, and Star Wars.
Billy: Remember to drink your water!
Me: Picks up my glass of wine
I loved Ella's dresses in this movie.
" Cinderella was the one who fell asleep, cause she ate that apple, right?" Lol
You talking about Aurora and Snow White in the same sentence, and there's nothing about Cinderella in it 🤣
Happily Never After is a "CInderella" adaptation that's kind of underrated, I recommend it. It's really fun!
I like this live action the most out of all of them because there is still some Disney magic, however I still prefer the animated version because Cinderella had more sass, and so did the prince even though we saw less of him. As well as other things were done a bit better.
Walking starbursts lol you crack me up🤣🤣
I have a little black cat and his name is Loki💜
This is probably one of my absolute favorites live actions
I will keep manifesting for Pride and Prejudice (2005) #bingers 😌👏
I don't suppose there's any hope he'd do the 1995 version, so I'm here with you hoping for the 2005.
I have a cat named Schmitty. I really loved this live-action adaptation. Cate Blanchett as the step mother is so great and evil.
Admittedly I'm not all that fussed on this version. It looks lovely and everything and I don't hate it or anything I just kind of have no emotions watching it I'm not super into it 🤣 but that's just me. Lily James is awesome though. Last thing I saw her in she was playing Pamela Anderson and it is WILD! She's so good.
two words: PITCH PERFECT- billy's reaction would be hilarious
unpopular opinion: The 2015 version of Cinderella is better than the 2021 version.
100%agreed
i thought the 2021 flopped.
The mother plays Peggy in Captain America. A beauty!
I have a black and white cat named Penguin 🐧 🐈⬛
I love how he immediately falls for the mom and then proceeds to compare the dad to Lord Farquaad LOL
you NEED to react to the latest Cinderella movie with Camilla Cabello - it's awful and I need to watch your reactions LOL #bingers
The one in the pink played lucrezia Borgia in the series borgias. She looked so stunning and was amazing in that role.
*The Original:* she fights for her freedom and doesn't give up
*The Remake:* she just spins around and doesn't do anything and gives up
A truly STRONG female character, and an accurate rep of Walt Disney's favorite story. Yes Cinderella was actually his favorite tale cause he related to her.
I've watched it like 10 times already and gonna see it more.Love this movie so much.
