@@LakiaJaiTV Could we stop using a small budget as a criticism of a movie or show it’s really unfair the stylists and directors and creators had no control over that and they did their best with it
@@madnessarcade7447 It has nothing to do with the budget. CGI is expensive lol. The dress doesn’t match her. It’s part of the plot. The whole pretty princess thing wasn’t for Mal and it showed through the dress. That’s y it changed after she became a dragon. And the new purple dress was also the one in the glass picture thingy Ben designed showing the “real her”. It was part of her character discovery. Descendants actually had a pretty high budget for a Disney movie. 🤓
this was one of the first realizations i realized i was gen z. you could not let me go against china anne mcclain as a villian. i grew up with a.n.t. farm and i knew my place.
22:12 Kenny Ortega actually said that Cameron (and the actress that plays Jane) enjoyed this bit of dancing in the water soooo much, they had so much fun with it.
15:55 Evie and Doug’s relationship similarly to Mal and Ben ran its course to me in this movie. Evie and Doug aren’t interesting anymore, and Mal doesn’t want the life being with Ben gives. I’m surprised you didn’t notice the chemistry between Evie and Ben in this movie🙈he also has more chemistry with Uma than Mal too. And seeing what Mal does as future queen in Descendants 3…she’s not cut out for this life
I don't see Uma as a villian. She's just a product of her environment, a kid who deserves a second chance. And yeah, mal did a lot of questionable things in this movie.... And it gets worst. But she is a very grey character, which I like.
*For when you were confused on who Liv is* - Dove Cameron plays mal and before the descendants franchise, dove played in a Disney channel series called liv and Maddie where she played the roles of both twins, Liv and Maddie
13:05 I realized that Dove is rapping like she’s on Broadway 😭😭 Like it’s giving Lin-Manuel 🤣🤣🤣 Chyna is actually rapping which is why it sounds so much better 😌
I love Descendants SM and Uma is an icon... but can we talk about one stabby Scottish boi... aka HARRY HOOK? He's an icon in his own right, and HOT too!
@@growingupwithdisney lol yeah she figured it out later. I really loved Cinderalla 2 cause they gave the prince a lot more personaility. Cinderella 3 is bascially Anastasia's love story
Looking back since there on the island the wand wouldn't even work anyway because in the first movie didn't they say magic doesn't work there and that's why they had to break the barrier 😂
I’m pretty sure Ben is the king of The “United Kingdoms of Auradon”, so basically he’s the king of every kingdom from every fairy tale combined, and Chad is only a king of his kingdom
Ok I’m still waiting for them to convince me that was Mal was wrong about using the spell book. She was using it to dye her hair, read fast, cook. WHERE IS THE EVIL??
It was wrong that she had to lie not that she used it Also in the books magic is considered a cheap fix and they prefer natural talent like hard work and stuff Read the book
@@madnessarcade7447 A) It's stated quite blatantly in the first movie, that's fairy godmothers philosophy and she is head of the school, they are meant to follow it as well. B) Evie straight told her that her spellbook belongs in the museum with her mirror. C) Any time she did a spell for herself, people were on her case about it. But if they needed magical help, no judgement
There are different kingdoms! The school is just in aurodon which is run by beauty and the beast (and they’re the overall rulers but the individual kingdoms still exist- hanover run by snowwhite etc)
at 10:17 ..Ben’s parents united all the nations and were crowned king and queen of the “United States of Auradon” they said this in the intro of the first movie
YAYYY! I just watched you react to the first one yesterday and was like “ I wonder when she’s gonna watch the second one” THEN YOU COME OUT WITH THIS! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😆
I was disappointed with the rap battle. I liked Uma and Ben, but I was expecting Mal to BRING IT and she just...fell so flat for me. Like she's supposed to be the biggest and baddest and Uma was really eating her up
There was this one girl who I had some classes with throughout middle school and high school, and she was black, and after this movie came out, she dyed her hair whitish-aqua and had it in numerous braids and I once heard someone call her "Uma," which confirmed to me that she was trying to look like Uma because Uma's look is so iconic.
The 'Chillin' Like a Villain' dance got us looking like soldiers marching for Kenny Ortega. You're also right about the last musical number. The lyrics got so repetitive.
Lakia rooting for uma is literally EVERYTHING 😂
Uma had a point tho. She was an icon and the moment.
Uma has so much charisma that was impossible to root for someone else
Uma is the best
Uma being escorted by Ben AND having the better dress is a crazy level of embarrassment 😬
Too real 😭

@graceoodunmbaku8088 i thought mal looked really good in any dress but i didn't like her blonde hair i loved the iconic purple
true but Mals purple dress gives umas a run for her money
Descendants 2 definitely gives “late night movie adventure” vibe. I love it!
this was one of the first realizations i realized i was gen z. you could not let me go against china anne mcclain as a villian. i grew up with a.n.t. farm and i knew my place.
Perioddd! I would side with uma any day lol
period!! like Uma is my queen I'm sorry not sorry
22:12 Kenny Ortega actually said that Cameron (and the actress that plays Jane) enjoyed this bit of dancing in the water soooo much, they had so much fun with it.
"it starts with you and me" girl 😭😭
She kept putting that lyric on replay 😭
@@justash1139 the way its basically like the only lyric in the entire song 😭
When you got up to do the choreography to Chilling Like a Villian, I hollered.🤣
You are a mood, a vibe, a treasure!✨
Never change.💐
Mal forgot she was from the hood too trynna shade Uma 😂
Uma is an icon and we're all _so_ here for her. 😁😂.

You prob thought Mal was Liv because she also plays Liv in Liv and Maddie lmao
She also plays Maddie I just found out that it was her and it wasn't two people playing twins lol
Can we also talk about how Uma was basically walking Harry on a leash this entire movie??
I don't see Uma as a villian. She's just a product of her environment, a kid who deserves a second chance. And yeah, mal did a lot of questionable things in this movie.... And it gets worst. But she is a very grey character, which I like.
"Ben, Shush, i want to see a fight"
Yup, that our reaction in that song fr
6 years later and Descendants 2 will always remain my fav from the franchise. What My Name UMAAAAA💙💙💚💚
We appreciate your reactions. Keep working hard as always.
Thank you 🥰
*For when you were confused on who Liv is* - Dove Cameron plays mal and before the descendants franchise, dove played in a Disney channel series called liv and Maddie where she played the roles of both twins, Liv and Maddie
The "it starts with you and me" never ending is so funny ahah 💌
It felt random but I liked it. No shade to Descendants but their ending songs aren’t all that
13:05 I realized that Dove is rapping like she’s on Broadway 😭😭 Like it’s giving Lin-Manuel 🤣🤣🤣 Chyna is actually rapping which is why it sounds so much better 😌
That’s why China was eating Dove up in the whole movie, she just adds FLAVOR that this movie revealed Dove unfortunately lacked
@@growingupwithdisney I completely agree!!
I wish Dove was ACTUALLY rapping!
15:47 lol the random Chad insult and compliment combo
I am so ready for the Descendants 3 reaction. Lakia's reactions are my favorite
0:47 Liv and Maddie?! Lmao
Descendants is definitely in my top 3 favorite Disney movies/movie series I’ve probably watched all the movies at least 7 times 😭
BRUH SAME I LOVE IT❤❤❤❤
I love Descendants SM and Uma is an icon...
but can we talk about one stabby Scottish boi... aka HARRY HOOK? He's an icon in his own right, and HOT too!
Me waiting for Lakia to realize uma’s mother is Ursula and uma did the same thing her mother did to ariel like: 👁️👄👁️
Why didn’t I realize 😭😂
she got around to it lol, just took some thinking later. I never seen Cinderella 3 so I wonder what she’s talking about with that
@@growingupwithdisney lol yeah she figured it out later. I really loved Cinderalla 2 cause they gave the prince a lot more personaility. Cinderella 3 is bascially Anastasia's love story
Omg I almost DIED when she was doing the choreography LIKE SLAY GIRLYYYY PERIOTTTT😭😂💕🤍🩵🩷
Looking back since there on the island the wand wouldn't even work anyway because in the first movie didn't they say magic doesn't work there and that's why they had to break the barrier 😂
I think the wand is the thing that made there be no magic, so it’s the only thing that can undo it
Chillin like a villain is my jam and the choreo is fire!!! Giving thriller!!!
I’m pretty sure Ben is the king of The “United Kingdoms of Auradon”, so basically he’s the king of every kingdom from every fairy tale combined, and Chad is only a king of his kingdom
21:48 It SRarts WITH yOu And
MEh
Compilation
Ok I’m still waiting for them to convince me that was Mal was wrong about using the spell book. She was using it to dye her hair, read fast, cook. WHERE IS THE EVIL??
OMG YESSSS
It was wrong that she had to lie not that she used it
Also in the books magic is considered a cheap fix and they prefer natural talent like hard work and stuff
Read the book
I see it as Disney not giving them much of a budget lol
@@madnessarcade7447

C) Any time she did a spell for herself, people were on her case about it. But if they needed magical help, no judgement
in the book, beast forbid magic. Maybe thats why? But then again the fairy has her wand at every occasion so idk
Descendants 2 was my favorite one for sure!!!
20:13 her face when he roared 😭😭
Seeing Cameron now in movies after his death gets me heartbroken. like he was only 20 💔😭
There are different kingdoms! The school is just in aurodon which is run by beauty and the beast (and they’re the overall rulers but the individual kingdoms still exist- hanover run by snowwhite etc)
Lakia seeing Ben kissing Uma's hand : Aww
A few moments later... : Remarks the ring
👁️👄👁️
at 10:17 ..Ben’s parents united all the nations and were crowned king and queen of the “United States of Auradon” they said this in the intro of the first movie
NOW YOU HAVE TO WATCH DESCENDANTS 3
Lakia, you did well with the dance just more neck, more neck! 😂
YAYYY! I just watched you react to the first one yesterday and was like “ I wonder when she’s gonna watch the second one” THEN YOU COME OUT WITH THIS! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾😆
Love how they got Ben all dressed up for the Disney "hood."
I was disappointed with the rap battle. I liked Uma and Ben, but I was expecting Mal to BRING IT and she just...fell so flat for me. Like she's supposed to be the biggest and baddest and Uma was really eating her up
It was to be expected for Uma to be better than Mal.
@@COSun25it really was, China always EATS
Nah i liked mal in the song and i think dove was awesome but i like china too
nah ben gave me r kelly trapped in a closet character it was not good
@@kingseb2252 mal is terrible at rapping
10:47 she literally knew what was happening in the third movie and 19:37 Ben gets under a spell in the third movie
Last time I was this early, that damn dog wasn't talking. Great video as always!
Best girl Uma is here!!
it starts with you and may
Liv like LIV AND MADDIE 😭 she played both characters in that i love the little reality slip when you said Liv instead of Mal
“It starts with yew and mehhh”😂😂😂😂 it just kept repeating
Ben actually doesn't have beast powers he just keep growling for some weird reason
In the finale, Audrey made him turn into a Beast, so I guess he sorta does
@@growingupwithdisney not really because as you said audrey turned him into one and in beauty and the beast he turns to normal so bens human
would have been way more fun if he did
8:11 No cause this was me as well when the movie came out 🤣🤣🤣 I learned the choreography for this song cause it ate 😭👏🏽👏🏽
20:35 because the curse altered his dna which he then passed on lol
I love the whole descendent franchise❤ I just love Disney/pixar all of it😊
20:17
The woman was to stunned to speak
Girl, the moment that mic came out I was just dying😂😂😂😂❤
Ben doesn’t care she used spells he cares that she lied about it
Y’all need to read the room lol
He was mad because she used spells and she lied to him...
Hey friend my obsession for this movie ran deep I still sing the songs to this day idc I find it so entertaining 😂😂😂❤❤
Cameron boyce will forever be my favorite actor
THE CHILDHOOD MEMORIES R JUST FLOODING BACKKK
I’ve never sat down to see this or the third one. But I now enough to watch this without spoilers 😂
The fact that you got up to dance 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This movie was easily the best one I think it’s amazing soundtrack and movie.
Yay! 🎉❤ So excited to see the third one with you next! 🥰🙏
RIP Cameron 😭😭😭
She is Liv…just from Liv and Maddie 😂 took me a sec
To this day I’m on Uma’s side😂😂 she was eating Mal up fr and had legitimate reasons to do what she did, BUT she went about it the wrong way.
2:19 so real
Im cracking up 😂😂😂 it starts with you & me
There was this one girl who I had some classes with throughout middle school and high school, and she was black, and after this movie came out, she dyed her hair whitish-aqua and had it in numerous braids and I once heard someone call her "Uma," which confirmed to me that she was trying to look like Uma because Uma's look is so iconic.
Love this trilogy!!!
Descendants 2 is the best out of the series. China playing the villian is so great. She steals the whole movie.
Uma is my Queen 👸🏾🧜🏾♀️
I recommend you to definitely watch Descendants 3 because it ate down bad. You won’t be disappointed promise you that🥰
calling mal “liv” is so funny to me cuz dove played a character named liv in her show liv and maddie😭
U ate that dance upp girllyyy!!!!
“It starts with you and MEH”
Unpopular Disney opinion. I’m tired of the talking sidekicks ( mostly because they’re not funny. Not everyone can be Eddie Murphy)
Not unpopular imo. I think Disney just sees one thing work out and decides to replicate it over and over and OVER.
I’ll watch 3 just to see Uma bye ✌🏾
6:59 Why does he kind of look like Chad Dylan Cooper here??? 😭😭
Giving me Sonny With a Chance flashbacks smh
Christopher Wilde in Starstruck mixed with PJ in Good Luck Charlie
OMG I LOVE YOU your reactions are golden your so underrated❤❤❤
Thank you 🫶🏾
@@LakiaJaiTVshe’s not wrong
I am so happy you reacted to the second descendants movie🫶🏻(love your videos by the way😁)
YESS IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THISS
She’s literally such a vibe
Are we not gonna talk about how Carlos was over making snow angels in the water like a dang idiot at 21:43 🤣🤣🤣 no shade! I love and miss you, Cam🫶
Oooooo! Can’t wait for you to watch #3 and the 4th one droppin’ this Friday on the 12th! 😩
Not you thinking it was real lmfao 😭
Space Between was such a GOOD song!!!!
Descendants 2 is the best Descendants hands down !!
The 'Chillin' Like a Villain' dance got us looking like soldiers marching for Kenny Ortega.
You're also right about the last musical number. The lyrics got so repetitive.
I only came for this video for Uma.This is all I came for I never came for the others.I don't like them.Uma is the The real star🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
15:17 ben uma captured you
You spelled him
The scream I scrumpt when I saw u doing the dance😭😂
18:28: That would make sense! It would he so sweet if Ben did that!
*IT STARTS WITH YOU AND MEH*
The fact she predicted the program for the third movie 😂
we need a compilation of you singing! it would be great!
0:43 Dove (who plays Mal) played Liv and Maddie in Liv and Maddie.. that may be where you got liv from!
Uma is also the daughter of ursula
Not you repeating " it's starts with you and me"😂😂
Right 😂😂😂 I thought I was tripping for a second
0:45 Liv from Liv and Maddie who's also played by Dove Cameron
20:11 is so funny
Ah yes, the movie in which FAIRY GODMOTHER can keep HER magic but no one else can!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
For real. Mal has to give up her spell book but the fairy godmother can keep her wand.
