Did you know that Gwyneth Paltrow was offered the role of Ice's love interest? She was going to take it too, until her dad advised her against it. Wise, wise man.
I don't who I'm more annoyed with in the horse scene: Ice for intentionally spooking the horse, or Kat for deciding not to wear a helmet. My conclusion: both are idiotic, and if the horse had trampled them, I wouldn't feel sorry at all
Oh man, this movie. It believes so much that is being cool and hip, that even though it fails miserably at it, it's actually kind of adorable. I can't even get mad at it, even tough it's horrible.
GreatSpaceToaster I'll give it credit for some of the shots that seemed like they were trying to at least be somewhat artistic. I honestly think whoever made this had a lot of fun with it and that's where I feel the charm comes from.
***** That's why I asked it in the form of a question. I'm questioning the idea that everything a 6 year old likes is terrible by using a movie that I liked at 6 (and still like.)
RocaDeearCenjar winnie the pooh is a children's cartoon geared toward just that, children… need i explain the difference between that and a major motion picture that is directly meant to target 13-29 year olds?
There's a crazy old shack beyond the tracks [penny whistle hook] And everyone calls it the Sugar Shack [penny whistle hook] It was a pop song in the 60s.
The funny thing about this movie is that it was released long after Vanilla Ice wore out his welcome. All the music in this flick, including Vanilla Ice's, would've been acceptable a few years before this movie came out (remember, he sold 15 MIL!), but by the time of its release, Nirvana and the whole grunge movement already washed away the whole Club MTV scene, and NWA and the whole Thug Rap movement rendered Vanilla Ice an irrelevant joke (with the added bonus of Suge Knight hanging him by his ankles like the scrub he is!) So this movie came out about 2-3 years too late. With all that said, I'd still take Vanilla Ice over Macklemore.
He may be a bad actor, not so great rapper and there is no doubt that every copy of this movie should be destroyed or deleted, but his dancing skills are pretty good. Just sayin, not everything he does is bad. Not that that's enough to save this movie or his career, but at least it shows he's not completely talentless.
"And is it just me, or is the music starting to sound like Inspector Gadget?" Well, it kind of makes sense, as the director of the movie also directed the Inspector Gadget movie...
So the boyfriend is at fault for being upset that another guy was flirting with his girlfriend? I don't see the logic to that. I mean sure he was a bit of an asshole about it but his reaction was largely justified.
I think its more how possessive (and possibly manipulative) he is, even outside of Ice flirting with Kathy. There are hints of it when we first see Kathy and the boyfriend talking to each other.
ah but you see, it was Ice flirting with his girlfriend, therefore Ice is justified...because that's sadly how our culture works, the rich and famous can do whatever they want. BI
QwertyGirl789: This is stupid and way-too-common trope. "Hero" of the story flirts with and/or tries to steal a girl he knows is taken. In order to justify the hero doing this, the boyfriend is always portrayed as a douche, so the audience will prefer to have the girl with the "hero".
Wait, are you honestly saying HE is justified for being angry at HER just because another guy hit on her? Isn't that kind of like being pissed at your car because someone else sideswiped you? Oh, and he also roughly grabs her arm, drags her outside, screams at her, and then later tried to attack the guy with a goddamn baseball bat. Oh yeah, I'm sure he's _totally_ justified in his actions. /facedesk
this isn't white, this is neon white in a monochrome cartoon directed by a vanilla and marshmallow Wonder Bread sandwich and Edward from Twilight in the middle of a freak blizzard, which in on itself is in a monochrome cartoon. that's how white this movie is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+HelloMyNameIsASecret I like that entire MOVIE for being goofy. It may have been bad, but I'd say it has enjoyable stuff like that rap in it and is much more watchable than the piece of shit that followed it.
I've never seen this movie but based on this review it feels like a long music/promo video. It doesn't seem too bad actually. Kinda feels like the people involved had fun doing it.
How the fuck did the rest of the cast not piss themselves laughing all the way through this 'movie'? Especially the scene at the Sugar Shack with his dancing like he's shit himself routine, LOL.
I haven´t seen a rapper this white since Funky. T. Snowman, continue to blow us away Ice, continue to blow us away. - My favorite line of this review :D
18:21-18:25 "You've got no rhyme, you got no rhythm, you don't even have any talent. Unless you have the whitest rapper in history backing you up, count me the fuck out of this."
What's the problem with all the negative "white" comments? Would it be acceptable if one did a similar thing with an all black cast film and used being black as a negative...
Yes, it would be acceptable-if it made SENSE. You need to first find a movie with really bad portrayals of a certain race.Then you will get the negative racial comments. It's not about "Acceptable or unacceptable' It's not people bullying white people either. The thing with black movies is it's most often just black life or movies about black history.These movies often have black people characterized accurately, whereas this movie-Vanilla Ice pretty much wearing black rap culture like a halloween costume. It just makes him look fake. The more he tries to emulate black culture the whiter he looks.Which is why his whiteness is a negative in this regard. He sure isn't Eminem. He is a tall good looking white boy with perfectly styled hair, fancy clothes and a bike, what does he know about the "hood" ? Do you see why it silly? If you'd like an example of a movie with an all black cast where all the characters are cartoony "too damn black"characters -see "soul plane". Even black people hate that movie and it's an all black cast. Why? because it's a caricature of black people. Just vanilla ice is a caricature of a white person who loves rap. A white person who raps and likes hanging around black people, wouldn't act so "hood" white at the same time not looking like they could last a day in it.
***** lol. UA-cam is rife with racism against blacks. There could be a video of a black man drinking water, and some white racists will make disparaging remarks about blacks. ANY video on youtube that has blacks is filled with racist comments.
I just recently started a Vanilla Ice tribute act with an African American and I called it "Black Ice". No I didn't.... but now that I made that joke I actually think it might work
Rapping requires great understanding of lyrical writing, metaphor , and the art of conveying the state of one's history into art. If he had done all that then he would have been ,but he did not so no has ever seen him in such a way.
Vanilla Ice was awesome, and his music holds up. He got panned because he's white, but he can rhyme, dance, and had showmanship. He became a punch line, but not because of his music. His jams were funky fresh!
"Care to be lame with me?" will now be my official pickup line. I love it
"Don't mock me, I'm going to last forever. " lol
Fun fact - Gwyneth Paltrow was originally supposed to play the love interest, but her dad didn't let her.
Best dad ever
Wow, Pepper was going to be in a HORRIBLE movie before Iron Man came along.
Father of the year (1990).
And even before her Oscar win for Shakespeare in Love
Did you know that Gwyneth Paltrow was offered the role of Ice's love interest? She was going to take it too, until her dad advised her against it. Wise, wise man.
7:58 - The way he bangs on the door completely cracks me up. Doug didn't even NEED to crack a joke at that one.
I was at a friend's house a few weeks ago and we were watching the DVD just to make fun of it. When he knocked on the door like that, we ALL lost it!
ice's mind:WHATS UP MOTHER FUCKERS ITS SCARCE HERE
3:01 Best part of the movie right here. Just keep clicking over and over and over again. It's the little things that keep you going.
Honestly calling him Iceman is an insult to the X-Men.
And, perhaps, even an insult to Iceman from Top Gun. Then again, that might be a tie.
I was thinking Ice Man from Mega Man 1...
Gene Kaufman I was thinking Richard Kuklinski
You guys are hilarious(no sarcasm)
***** i dont think its a compliment to Kuklinski
I get it now Justin Bieber is our generations vanilla ice
Justin Bieber is also the Leif Garrett of our generation.
bs .. Ice is better
ice looks and dance was shit but he does have some decent songs ..
plot twist Vanilla ice…….. you are the father
Never say Never was his version of this
this was the movie that turned MJ white.
I don't who I'm more annoyed with in the horse scene: Ice for intentionally spooking the horse, or Kat for deciding not to wear a helmet. My conclusion: both are idiotic, and if the horse had trampled them, I wouldn't feel sorry at all
The critic makes more ice puns in this review than Mr Freeze.
Oh man, this movie. It believes so much that is being cool and hip, that even though it fails miserably at it, it's actually kind of adorable. I can't even get mad at it, even tough it's horrible.
GreatSpaceToaster I'll give it credit for some of the shots that seemed like they were trying to at least be somewhat artistic. I honestly think whoever made this had a lot of fun with it and that's where I feel the charm comes from.
I love coming onto a video and seeing Critic either crying or laughing because it usually means we're in for a treat. :)
haha that vanishing effect was actually pretty nice :D
interesting thing to note is that the guy who directed this also directed the Inspector Gadget movie
+Deer Wow, he went from one shitty movie to another. Nice going.
lurch321 yep
No… no! You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you all to hell!
That explains a lot.
Deer No wonder he's not directing any Marvel Studios or DC movie's.
I've recently discovered this guy and I have been binging on his videos... My abs are really starting to hurt from this laughter...
"You liek my shorts? I got them from the Hamburglar."
Laughing my fucking ass off; was expecting him to say The Gap.
It's like an hour and a half of white people re-enacting the opening for "Fresh Prince of Bel Air."
Threetails 😂😂😂😂😂
This is why music videos don't always make great movies.
i was 4 when this movie came out and it was my favorite movie when i was 6.. thats sad when a 6 year old kid likes your movie… it means its terrible
Are you trying to tell me that the Adventures of Winnie the Pooh is a bad movie?
***** That's why I asked it in the form of a question. I'm questioning the idea that everything a 6 year old likes is terrible by using a movie that I liked at 6 (and still like.)
RocaDeearCenjar winnie the pooh is a children's cartoon geared toward just that, children… need i explain the difference between that and a major motion picture that is directly meant to target 13-29 year olds?
JustinBlazzzee You don't, I'm simply contesting the idea that anything a six year old likes is garbage.
RocaDeearCenjar
False. Not all kids are idiots ,you know. Although they are often easily entertained..
nostalgia critic's racism jokes are the best racism jokes.
"Cool as Ice?"
More like...
"White as Snow."
There's a crazy old shack beyond the tracks [penny whistle hook]
And everyone calls it the Sugar Shack [penny whistle hook]
It was a pop song in the 60s.
Holy Shitballs, Kathy's dad is Burt Gummer from Tremors. How could I miss this!?

With all that said, I'd still take Vanilla Ice over Macklemore.
"I'm gonna drop some FUNKY lyrics"
Lol, I burst out laughing. That's the least coolest thing ever. xD
9:26
His face should have flown right off the chart at that point.
The concept of Vanilla Ice being art itself is an abstract idea, abstract enough to be art itself.
He may be a bad actor, not so great rapper and there is no doubt that every copy of this movie should be destroyed or deleted, but his dancing skills are pretty good. Just sayin, not everything he does is bad. Not that that's enough to save this movie or his career, but at least it shows he's not completely talentless.
His rapping has actually gotten better in recent years. A hell of a lot darker, but considerably better.
ometta7 His rapping has gotten better is hardly an improvement.
Steve Perrin How were you able to search UA-cam and get to this video?
this is one of my fave reviews lol
"And is it just me, or is the music starting to sound like Inspector Gadget?"
Well, it kind of makes sense, as the director of the movie also directed the Inspector Gadget movie...
Hey... I know that guy Vanilla Ice... he borrowed my "How to Pretend you are Black" book, He never gave it back. Now I hear Justin Bruner has it :(
*Beiber
Taiason Cole *Bieber no wait that was the how to pretend you are a princess book
Either way he sucks... I don't even know or care how to spell his name
Taiason Cole Does it really matter how you spell his name?
I heard a rumor that Justin gave it to Miley Cyrus.
"This must be what black people think white people do all day" bwahahahahaha so this is what it feels like to be so horribly misrepresented by a movie
The gunshot sound effect made that clip even funnier!
So the boyfriend is at fault for being upset that another guy was flirting with his girlfriend? I don't see the logic to that. I mean sure he was a bit of an asshole about it but his reaction was largely justified.
Are you really trying to understand this movie? lol
I think its more how possessive (and possibly manipulative) he is, even outside of Ice flirting with Kathy. There are hints of it when we first see Kathy and the boyfriend talking to each other.

"Go, dumbass, go, dumbass, go! Go, dumbass, go, dumbass, go!"
Care to be lame with me?
"And yes, he does the whole thing while looking like the top of a baby bottle." Why did that make me crack up so hard
Things that break my heart while watching this ;
Vanilla Ice still has a 'career'
Janusz Kamiński worked on this
2 things about this comment from what I've read and heard he has gotten better and 2nd he seems like a nice guy.
The whiteness level in this movie, IT"S OVER 9000!
this isn't white, this is neon white in a monochrome cartoon directed by a vanilla and marshmallow Wonder Bread sandwich and Edward from Twilight in the middle of a freak blizzard, which in on itself is in a monochrome cartoon. that's how white this movie is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And I'm sure a Super Sayian has the necessary qualities to know what true whiteness is.
Hm, I think I know, where Justin Bieber got his "swag" from... o_O
not, he got it from "saved by the bell".
Dude, harsh....I mean comparing Ice to Beiber is a low blow even for Ice.
I mean atleast Ice had ONE good song.
#sowhite
DarksideEXE ice baby 2000 wasnt a bad song either, well a remake of original, but still... and ice can dance
Ice > bieber
+HelloMyNameIsASecret I like that entire MOVIE for being goofy. It may have been bad, but I'd say it has enjoyable stuff like that rap in it and is much more watchable than the piece of shit that followed it.
This is the my favorite video of yours. I laughed through the entire thing. Thanks!
"If this scene was anymore white, it'd be transparent"
Congratulations Critic! You've done this entire review without any Mr. Freeze jokes.
I've never seen this movie but based on this review it feels like a long music/promo video. It doesn't seem too bad actually. Kinda feels like the people involved had fun doing it.
NPR's "Fresh Air" interviewing an organic food chef from Toronto regarding his new iPhone foodie app is less white than this.
He's whiter than Doug's wall.
LOOOL 😂😂
5:27 Probably the most appropriate reaction to anything ever!
The role of Kathy was initially offered to Gwyneth Paltrow.
Aw man she's melting my heart, cuz it's made of iccccceeeee
How the fuck did the rest of the cast not piss themselves laughing all the way through this 'movie'? Especially the scene at the Sugar Shack with his dancing like he's shit himself routine, LOL.
Critic, Sugar Shack actually exists. In Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. My Grandmother's house is nearby. However, its more of a gentlemen's club.
so vanilla ice wakes people up,by feeding them ice? I kinda want to live at Kevin Bacon's now ;)
"He wakes her up with ice. I'd hate to see Dick Budkus' (pronounced "Butt Kiss") wake up call"
Whoa! That line alone made this review worthwhile!
What killed the dinosaurs?
*adopts thick accent* The ice age!!!!!
They saw this movie and killed themselves in horror?
if the review starts with the critic laughing or crying you know it's going to be good
Favorite opening to a NC episode! ^^
His fans? Yes, all seven of them must be sooo happy that Ice is still cranking out the hits.
There's probably a reason that nobody's ever heard of this movie.
Fun fact: This movie was filmed in Glendora California
I haven´t seen a rapper this white since Funky. T. Snowman, continue to blow us away Ice, continue to blow us away. - My favorite line of this review :D
Same XD
I love the argument between the pot and kettle. LOL
Vanilla Ice is the whitest thing since Genesis 1:3
18:21-18:25 "You've got no rhyme, you got no rhythm, you don't even have any talent. Unless you have the whitest rapper in history backing you up, count me the fuck out of this."
What's the problem with all the negative "white" comments?
Would it be acceptable if one did a similar thing with an all black cast film and used being black as a negative...
***** Thought so.
Strange that way it all works really.
Yes, it would be acceptable-if it made SENSE.
You need to first find a movie with really bad portrayals of a certain race.Then you will get the negative racial comments. It's not about "Acceptable or unacceptable' It's not people bullying white people either.

"Lose the zero and get with the HERO"
Wow, I didn't realize it was possible to say that unironically.
Wait why doesn't ICE have any parents?
He was created in a lab by a disgruntled mad scientist.
zogmorp OOohh
'Cuz he's ICE!
Because they met him.
I just recently started a Vanilla Ice tribute act with an African American and I called it "Black Ice". No I didn't.... but now that I made that joke I actually think it might work
13:15 the funny thing is, when I was younger I thought all white people lived and behaved like the ones on ABC Family.
I don't think it was a feat worthy of a Nobel Prize, but thanks for the compliment!
What the fuck even is this movie? Is it even trying to make sense?
He wears the jacket in the warm weather because he's COLD AS ICCCCEE!
Vanilla Ice vs Mr.Freeze (Batman and Robin) for most lame puns
for most lame puns, Vanilla Ice. Of course, in my opinion; cool as ice makes Batman and Robin look like Gone with the Wind.
Both of them won't stand a chance against Charlie Sheen's dog character in Foodfight.
So while watching this, I was checking my DeviantArt messages and one of the recent pictures was of Ice. I love coincidences.
Love the way your Ice imitation sounds like Eddy Murphy.
Cringe: The Movie
Cool as Ice: It's so stuck in the 90s it's actually kinda magical.
This movie is stupid beyond belief. Actually Vanilla Ice is not a unattractive dude, until he opens his mouth.
It makes me cry a little that most of the kids at my high school talk like Vanilla Ice if he joined a gang stuck in a time warp
that effect at the end was bad ass
I remember seeing a music video by 3rd Base that had someone dressed like Vanilla Ice getting hit with a crowbar. ..
Loved it so fuckin" much!
After watching this, I had a nightmare where all the workers at McDonalds had to rap to you.
I get the feeling that Mark Wahlberg saw this back in the day and said, "Jesus Christ I gotta learn how to act..this is MY wake up call!"
that sums it up pretty well
The motorcycles from this film are still in therapy!
I swear Ice-T reminds me of one of my friends... The way he talks and stuff...
You need new friends
To be honest, if I saw this at a flea market, I would maybe pick it up lol xD
Up until the 16 second mark,my only thought was "Good lord,we broke him."
This got to be my favorite NC review of all time
There's actually an ice cream shop near where I live called "The Sugar Shack". Fortunately, there's no Vanilla Ice.
Rapping requires great understanding of lyrical writing, metaphor , and the art of conveying the state of one's history into art.
If he had done all that then he would have been ,but he did not so no has ever seen him in such a way.
Vanilla Ice was awesome, and his music holds up. He got panned because he's white, but he can rhyme, dance, and had showmanship. He became a punch line, but not because of his music. His jams were funky fresh!
Yeah, me too. Might have just gotten old enough to actually see it lol
Im glad someone said it
With all of the Batman jokes I was surprised to not see Mr. Freeze lines from Batman & Robin.
When you say he works hard people interpret it as "Im richer because i worked harder than you" which is simply not the case for most people
You know you're In for one hell of a review if the Critic can't even do his intro at the start.
my happiest time watching this was seeing inspector gadget. brillant show.
The song "Ice Ice Baby" was actually on in our class today XD
My God, its palm springs weekend made crazier than before
