I love this movie. I also think all the little cameos were TOTALLY worth because it helps sell the idea that ALL cartoons are part of this world. If they spent time beyond a joke or cameo for every single one then it would have been bad. It would have taken up too much time and ended up as an emoji movie. If we get a sequel, or another movie in this world with a different set of main characters, I'd LOVE to see some UA-cam animated characters make an appearance. Hell, Odd1sOut has a cartoon on Netflix now.
You've got to feel somewhat sorry for Sweet Pete by the end. Despite being an awful person, he was kicked out of Hollywood simply because he aged, which is sadly a true commentary on how child stars are discarded by the industry once they get older.
@@chasehedges6775 Which is what people are talking about when referring to Sweet Pete. His backstory is almost note for note what happened to Bobby Driscoll and the fact no one raised their hand and asked if this MIGHT be disrespectful to his memory is shameful. Poor guy died of a drug overdose. The reason he got kicked out was because of a change in management at Disney who despised having to deal with kid actors so he got the boot and no one told him until he tried to come into the studio and couldn't get past security.
I would of liked it if Mickey as a Buinessman would of came in and admitted how awful both him and his company were and wanted to make up for it by supporting him for his trial
I originally thought Sweet Pete was a nod to the Peter Pan from the Fox animated series as there was an episode of him growing up which caused Never Land to nearly cease to exist. However now that I know it’s a nod to what happened to the Disney voice actor, it’s kind of depressing
For me, the world the movie takes place in is the highlight. I like seeing toons walk around in the real world, and the fact that we got so many different art styles and animation styles was really cool.
Yeah, although I don't exactly like the plot itself the world of the movie is the highlight! Especially since it's a relatively unexplored concept only ever happening as full length movies like 3 times from what I can remember. Yeah we got animation in real life in movies but seeing how a world like that would work is pretty unexplored territory.
Mostly worse. Does ANYONE miss the Spielberg-toon 90’s when cartoon jokes were grownup off-topic sitcom entertainment-industry in-jokes about La-La-Land celebrities?? (Besides the filmmakers of this one, that is.)
honestly, having Tigra in the movie is way funnier than having Cheetara, the Thundercats characters are too iconic and recognizable, having the one avenger that has not made the jump to movies or pop culture fame, while every other character on her show already have their own series or movies, that is just funnier
*flashbacks to Cheetah Woman from Wonder Woman 1984 and She-Hulk from She-Hulk: Attorney At Law* I think I can understand why Tigra hasn’t been brought into the MCU yet.
I'm not even sure Tigra was meant to be a substitute for Cheetara. I think she intentionally put in that scene because she was a part of a failed Avengers series.
A couple notes: 1. Tigra actually is a real character from Marvel. They were originally going to use Sabretooth. 2. The director claimed in an interview that they didn’t intend to mock Driscoll and just wanted to have a commentary on child stars being abandoned by Hollywood; they were originally going to use a grown-up Charlie Brown but claimed that it was easier to get the rights to Peter Pan (of course, knowing what happened with Charlie Brown’s voice actor, then the you-know-what would’ve REALLY hit the fan).
My biggest issue with this movie in general was how visually ugly it was. A lot of the jabs they take at other animation styles felt hypocritical because their own visuals were just as offputting. My second-biggest issue is that the movie is ultra-nerdy sometimes in terms of how many deep-cut references are crammed into it (which I enjoyed), but other times it seems to completely ignore basic stuff like the fact that the Chip 'N Dale: Rescue Rangers TV show was itself a re-imagining of the characters for the late 80s. They had been in theatrical shorts decades before that, and the movie acts like those never existed.
The animation and CGI were ugly, but nothing compares to how offensive it is for mocking the memory of Bobby Driscoll. Titanic the animated movies are only more offensive because of the higher casualty number.
I can't believe people actually thought they hand drew Chip and Sweet Pete like I thought it was obvious CGI. But this hs what happens when the general audience watches a movie I guess. They just go "stfu and be happy with the content given". Like honey no if I don't like it, I'm gonna say it and that's that. This movie just looks BAD.
Yeah if anything Chip and Dale would have been better off being part of the classic Disney Entourage of characters. It's the side characters who would have been struggling for work.
If you go into this thinking it’s gonna be a Rescue Rangers movie, you’re gonna be disappointed. It’s more using the IP as a jumping off point for a totally other story
I want there to be a Nostalgic Critic review episode of Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers in the future. Just think of all the jokes Doug could come up with for that.
Months later I'm still wondering what the hell I just watched, but in a fun way. This movie is so inexplicable in its premise, execution, and ideas that it can't help but be admired for its moxie and gall.
The spiritual successor to _Who Framed Roger Rabbit_ we didn't know we needed, but absolutely deserve. Also, Ugly Sonic is amazing. And am I the only one who finds it weird that the movie had two DreamWorks characters, but no Pixar characters aside from real cars with windshield eyes?
I don't call it a spiritual successor, I call it the unofficial sequel. Just Roger being there would be a cameo, but when Pete reaches for the eraser, there is Dip right next to it. I say this is the world of Roger Rabbit, around 70 years later.
The only thing I had issues with was the backstory they gave Sweet Pete (and the fact that he was Peter Pan… oh boy)… I took issue with it because of what happened to the real VA behind Peter Pan. I know Doug touched on it but it’s really uncomfortable knowing Disney ALSO rejected the actor once he grew up 😬
that was pretty messed up. And what makes me madder, is that people just don't believe that Disney did this on purpose, that it was just a coincidence. God I hate twitter.
Im honestly okay with it, since I never knew about the real actors story until this movie brought it to light. To me, this feels more like Disney getting this off thier chest, and admitting that what happened was screwed up, and it should never happen again.
It was an okay movie. I will forever say my favorite joke in it was when Chip came home and he was listening to "Laid to Rest" by Lamb of God. I died laughing.
On the Fourteenth Disneycember my Critic gave to me: Fourteen Cartoon Camoes, Thirteen Scene Ruining Jokes, Twelve Awesome Warriors, Eleven Bad Fanfictions, Ten Awkward Cases, Nine Possum Jokes, Eight Glitchy Jedi, Seven Dead Eyed Puppets Six Decent Burgers, Five HORRIFIC DEATHS, Four Best Friends, Three Leaping Frogs, Two Quiet Moments, And a Spider Flying Round the City!
This is definitely the most entertaining movie I’ve seen all year and the self aware humor works mostly here. Ugly Sonic is easily the highlight. Omg the Seth Rogan character cameo blew my mind and still does
There was an interview with the director right when the movie came out and you're right. The side characters are traditionally animated and they wanted to do that for every character, but the movie's budget was very small compared to a theatrical release.
This should have been a theatrical release. It would have given theaters something while they were starved for movies, and it would have granted a bigger budget. Under Bob Chapek, Disney was really screwing over traditional distribution outlets like cable and movie theaters in favor of a streaming-centric strategy designed for them to control the channels and not share the profits with others
@Poever it would've been nice in the theater for sure, but how many people would actually see it? I know I wouldn't have and as far as I know none of my friends or family have been in a theater for a while now.
I had a really fun time with this movie. As soon as Tenacious D started playing as the intro, I knew we were in for a treat. My friends and I had an amazing time seeing all the characters they squeezed in, particularly when they go into the lab where they harvested the parts. We were on the floor just imagining the horrible reasons as to why these characters would get mixed up in the evil plot. Like... they scaled Jimmy Neutron. They took Dora the Explorer's legs. Monty has Dumbo's ears. What kind of debt did all these innocent characters have to pay to be mutilated like that? I don't know but I'm here for it. Also fake Swedish Chef was amazing. I don't know why they didn't just use Swedish Chef, but what they gave us was great. Besides that, the movie itself was pretty good. Even if they didn't have all those cameos in there, I feel like the movie is kind of like Roger Rabbit where it could hold its own just fine but I'm so glad they went that extra mile with it so that it FELT like Roger Rabbit. I didn't really grow up with Looney Tunes or Mickey Mouse the same way previous generations did. I knew who they were but they weren't as big anymore by the time I came around, so when I saw Roger Rabbit for the first time, it didn't hit me as much as it might have hit people in the 80s. So to see almost every major cartoon that I grew up with represented and even seeing characters like Randy Marsh or the Simpsons in a CHIP AND DALE movie was beyond mind-blowing the same way people would have seen Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, Woody Woodpecker, and Droopy all together in Roger Rabbit. Plus, I think it's interesting that Disney would even ALLOW all that in their movie. So I really had fun with this one and I think it's going to be something I watch quite a few more times.
The cameo in this that blew my mind the most was when Mr. Natural showed up. I never in a million years would have expected to see an R. Crumb character appear in a Disney movie (or any modern movie, for that matter... it's just especially weird that it was Disney).
Did anyone else notice that Bonkers was one of the hostages? Basically, the Toontown Chief of Police got too close to the truth and went missing, and I think we should have learned more about THAT small detail. I'm still glad they worked it in as a cameo.
Doug… both Sonic movies are great. It follows the terminator path, where the first one sets the ground work and everyone loves the second one. But we need to pray to God that the third Sonic movie is amazing. The Sonic franchise needs that.
After watching this movie, I’m thankful for the original Sonic design in the first trailer because without it, we wouldn’t have Ugly Sonic in this movie.
I have one problem with the villain. The idea of his identity and the why is fine but... the plan? "We are doing bootleg Disney movies!" But most of them are based on public domain fairy tales... you don't need to bootleg. You can do something legit, my dude. Also, you were let go because you grew up... and you have a machine that alters your design... [intensly stares at the two points made back and forth] TWO PLUS TWO, GENIUS!? Also also... ehm, this is the same backstory of the original VA irl, but... so in this universe "Return to Neverland" never happend?
Bobby Driscoll... for how many times he mentions the actor who played Peter Pan and his tragic history, it's really odd he never once says his name... Bobby Driscoll!!!
I love this movie. I also think all the little cameos were TOTALLY worth because it helps sell the idea that ALL cartoons are part of this world. If they spent time beyond a joke or cameo for every single one then it would have been bad. It would have taken up too much time and ended up as an emoji movie. If we get a sequel, or another movie in this world with a different set of main characters I'd LOVE to see some UA-cam animated characters make an appearance. Hell, Odd1sOut has a cartoon on Netflix now.
Given that Tigra is 1. a Marvel character, 2. a member of the Avengers, 3. was depicted as she was in the largely forgotten Avengers: United They Stand cartoon, and 4. the only main character of that show's line-up who has not yet crossed over into the MCU (Wonder Man's show is coming up), I think that her cameo in this film was entirely deliberate.
I'm in the 'it was insensitive to have it be Peter Pan' crowd, and I think it was further insensitive to have Will Arnett performing something real close to his Bojack Horseman voice, another actor destroyed thanks to the culture of Hollywood. I think it could have been Christopher Robin, growing up means leaving behind his friends and the Hundred Acre Wood. I suppose that could have the drawback of real Christopher Robin growing bitter and resentful towards his father, but it wouldn't be such an on the nose allegory for the very real boy chewed up and spit out by Hollywood for all the exact same reasons as the character in the film.
I really enjoyed seeing a world with Toons that didn’t exclusively revolve around Hollywood. I was wondering if film was the only job available to them. (Which in the 40’s it probably was.) I also give major kudos for their explanation on bootleg products. Clever, yet terrifying and depressing. I can’t help but look at those kind of products differently.
I heard someone say that if Roger Rabbit is a love-letter to animation, Chip ‘n Dale is a death-threat to the industry. The movie is very cynical toward Hollywood.
Kind of surprised Critic didn't make a comment on the fact Gadget and Zipper became a couple and had kids in this movie??? Considering Zipper was like a pet character in the OG show, that detail I found so incredibly weird.
Honestly I think the thing with Peter Pan being the villain would've worked better if it was Pinocchio instead. Like him grown up after becoming a real boy.
Yeah my biggest complaint was how LITTLE we got to see of the Rescue Rangers all together. I mean Zipper and Gadget could have been cut out of the movie entirely and almost NOTHING would change.
I found myself enjoying it. There's more cameos that he never went over like I saw Blaster from Transformers but the cameos never felt "overstuffed" if that makes sense. It helped contribute to this world where real people and cartoons co-exist. However what brings down for me is Sweet Pete and when I later learned his backstory was eerily similar to the real life Bobby Driscoll who voiced Peter Pan. I'm not sure if it was intentional but it's hard for me to rewatch the movie knowing that and I kinda wish they chose someone else.
Sweet Pete as the villan was actually last minute. There were other proposed antagonists including an older Charlie Brown and Pluto (a attempted nod to the early Chip and Dale cartoons). By the time they settled on Sweet Pete, it was most likely too late to adjust for the controversy.
I’m glad they didn’t go with Charlie Brown. I just don’t see Charlie Brown as a villain or as a cynical, middle-aged man or Toon. It would’ve been as bad as Sweet Pete. Less controversial sure, but still not good.
I call this a guilty pleasure bc while it’s guilty of doing things I hate I can’t help but enjoy it. It’s the animation equivalent of a giant popcorn flick while having some good lines and jokes.
It’s funny. When I first saw this, I honestly thought this was going to be dead on arrival. And yet somehow l, I found myself pleasantly shocked at how well this was executed. From the various styles (were you expecting puppets and “claymation”?), and the cameos including the shocking inclusion of Ugly Sonic, it was all brilliant. Well.. almost outside of Chip since the execution of his 2D was a bit too notable. Also it was nice to instill the horror of Seth Rogan laughing with three versions of himself. If this was made after the Mario film, you know Donkey Kong would have joined in too. But yeah, as a “modern day Roger Rabbit,” this was a fair attempt. Not as mind blowing as Mickey and Bugs, but it comes closer than we would have initially thought.
I kinda wished they added tinkerbell in it and her relationship with peter would have been like a parallel to chip and dale with how she got to be famous while he was kicked to the curb and in the end she was the one who got through to him to stop the bootlegging. But that just my thought, it would been cool to see. Someone should write a fanfic about it
Also, yeah, Sweet Pete's backstory eerily paralleling Bobby Driscoll's life after Peter Pan is indeed uncomfortable and one more reason why I don't enjoy the movie as much as I used to. The filmmakers should've used a jaded Pooh or an envious Oswald as the villain instead.
On the 14th day of disneycember the nostalgia critic gave to me 14 ugly sonics 13 bad Thor movies 12 predators hunting 11 terrible plot twists 10 hulks at law 9 Ice ages melting 8 glitchy souls likes 7 soulless puppets 6 ok burgers 5 Mad multiverses 4 generational traumas 3 frogs adventuring 2 ice ages starting And Spider-Man swinging on a pear tree
On the fourteenth day of Christmas The critic gave to me Five Rescue Rangers Two Gods of Thunder 12 predators 11 Space-Rangers Two superhero-lawyers A mammoth raised by possums 8 Jedi-Knights A talking marionette 6 Burger-restaurants Three Multiverses A family of red pandas A girl in a strange frog-world Three ice age mammals And a Spiderman in a pear tree
Pluto was originally the villian, which makes sense if you remember in the classic shorts Chip and Dale were always fucking with him, this could have been his revenge on them
I was shocked to not only see Chip and Dale and the Rescue Rangers again but have it be a 2022 version of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but also see numerous crossovers and see the UGLY SONIC return as well as Peter Pan be a surprise villain so it's not as bad as some said it was.
I agree. Though, did you feel as blindsided as I was them having Gadget and Zipper married when the whole time thinking it was going to be a story of Gadget saying something like My husband!!! (meaning Monty)?
As a fan on Rescue Rangers growing up, I had a lot of fun with this movie. Like you said, I do wish there were more of the actual Rescue Rangers (I would have loved to have seen them all team up at the end). I also had problems with Dale being CGI and Chip being 2D. I think the reasoning they give for Dale getting the “CGI surgery” makes sense, but the two just look weird together and it doesn’t quite feel like Chip and Dale to me.
That's my biggest gripe with this film. There was NO reason this was a Chip&Dale film. This could've worked just as well (probably better in fact) with any other old show or series. The characters are revealed to have been actors all along, one of them messes up their careers and tries to fix this years later but they've grown apart and a chance kidnapping forces them to band together nevertheless... This could've been ANYTHING. The recognizable-brand-to-milk-for-nostalgia dart just happened to hit the Rescue Rangers. One could argue this particular show was about solving mysteries and so it's perfect for this - until you realize neither "Chip" nor "Dale" are actually interested in solving the mystery. "Chip" is forced into being part of this movie, which is INCREDIBLY different from the show's Chip who I'd say was the most dedicated to seeing justice prevail, and "Dale" just wants "Chip" (and the kidnapped "Monty") for the sake of potentially restoring his/their fame. Most importantly, the meta idea, as neat as it is, shouldn't have been done in a non-original film. It worked in Roger Rabbit, cause Roger Rabbit was a character we didn't know beforehand. This time around, we KNOW Chip and Dale and the Rescue Rangers, so the movie has to pretend they're actually actors, completely different characters, while it also still tries to pander to Chip and Dale nostalgia. You can't eat the cake and have it too - either you do Chip and Dale or you don't. And don't get me started on what they did to "Gadget" and "Zipper".
@@ewormXD it's funny. I like this movie, but I agree with that sentiment. I look back on DuckTales 2017 and remember how that show got popular for doing similar things. Combining a serious story with a silly, self aware story. Creating a world filled with characters from different sources. And overall having a Post Modern feel. I go so far as to describe the premise as "what if the original Disney Afternoon was written Dan and Swampy/Alex Hirsch/Matt Broley/Dana Terrace style". But that worked because it gave us Ducktales first. In the first episode, we got excited at the idea of this being a Disney Afternoon Universe because that was just foreshadowed. As was the idea of Huey Dewey and Louie having a mom. The changes that ARE treated as major are the basic ones that actually affect the Ducktales part: the triplets having more separate personas, Donald Duck playing a more active role, and Webby being less 80s girly girl and more Mabel/Star/Marcy/Anne/Luz/Molly the duck.
I still wonder if it might have worked better as a Bonkers movie, since that show was ALL ABOUT the meta toon world thing like Roger Rabbit, so it could have had the double benefit of staying in universe and being loyal to the show.
I will say people absoultely hated that Gadget got together with zipper. it felt wrong to a lot of people because it felt like she was getting together with he family pet of the show XD
I loved the copy written characters not just so I can point and scream "OH LOOK ITS THAT GUY!" but moreso to build a believable world where animated characters live among regular humans regardless of which studio they belonged to.
They were originally going to use Jar Jar Binks instead of "Ugly Sonic" in this role! There's been no explaination as to why they changed it, but...Jar Jar Binks.
i do believe the cameos were worth it, otherwise ugly sonic popping up out of nowhere would've felt a bit awkward. This way, it makes sense that his part of this universe. But chip... yeah... I guess non-animation people literally can't tell the difference (it's pretty astonishing), and unfortunatly that's what the studio's counting on.
On the fourteenth day of Disneycember, The Critic gave to me: Fourteen Bootlegged Toons Thirteen Screaming Goats Twelve Hunting Natives Eleven Deadly Robots Ten Hulking Lawyers Nine Obnoxious Opossums Eight Imperial Inquisitors Seven Lifeless Puppets Six Murder Mysteries FIVE MULTIVERSES !!! Four Psycho Moms Three Frog Friends Two Woolly Mammoths And the Amazing Spider-MAN !
I thought this movie was not good, but oddly fascinating. Like it was not anticipated at all, barely if at all marketed, then it came out and everyone was talking about it, for a week, then suddenly no one remrmbered it existed. The only really good joke i liked from the movie was the one where chip tried to hit dale to make the dizzy birds show up, cutting away to the birds literally waking up late for their shift.
I was disappointed it wasn't a true rescue ranger story like in universe with the tv show. Once I got past that and embraced it as a Ronger Rabbit esc film I really enjoyed it for what it was. Still hoping for a rescue ranger reboot with the whole gang. (Ducktales 2017 was phenomenal).
It should be noted that Akiva Schaffer (yes this was a 2/3 lonely island joint) said he was often surprised how much he was able get. In a “oh crap you actually got my little pony, I was kindof kidding”.
Honestly I thought this was really really funny. I thought all the background nods were nice to set up the world they were building and make it look like yeah, this is a world where cartoons are just there.
I still can't get over the massive tonal dissonance of the plot being about actual in universe "human" trafficking and slavery, complete with a mind-broken Flounder.
Did anyone else remember this but didn't know what it was? I remembered bits and pieces, but could never tell what it was. Than my brother started humming the theme song, and explained to me about and old show called Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers had a movie released. I'm just SO glad I finally, after all these years, know the name of the show that I could not remember.
They should’ve made Oswald the Lucky Rabbit the villain. Peter Pan as the bad guy makes no sense since Disney didn’t abandon the character & is just a tasteless joke since Bobby Driscoll, the voice of Disney’s Peter Pan, WAS totally screwed over & left to die in a ditch because he grew up. But Oswald’s already got the tragic backstory of being stolen in a legal loophole & losing the Kingdom that should’ve been his to Mickey (thus leading to his taking back what was rightfully his one bootleg & mockbuster at a time). Oswald’s got freaky self-disassembling abilities that could be duplicated on his weird splicing & dicing machines to mutate other animated characters. And Oswald could connect more easily to whatever they tried to give Chip & Dale than Peter Pan.
I usually don’t care for these movies that just have cameos everywhere like space jam a new legacy, but I like this because of all the copyright stuff and it isn’t just Disney flexing with all the company’s they own
For me, it’s trying to be what galaxy quest did for tropic thunder. But what’s prevents it from being a good movie, is that it’s an adaptation of their ip. With the previous two working on their own, without winking their audience on what their mocking.
I was genuinely curious about how Ugly Sonic would look in the first draft. Now that I’ve seen this movie, I’d love to commission Paramount to reanimate every Sonic scene with Ugly Sonic. Sadly, I know there’s no amount of money they’d take to give me that cut.
I’m glad that they used the original Ugly Sonic movie design in the movie and make him useful as a law enforcement instead of “lol it’s Ugly Sonic”, and that’s all. At least Ugly Sonic is on a movie and being useful. But man this movie looks fun to watch! Besides the nostalgic characters and all that mumbo jumbo, the movie in general looks fun to watch!
I never really watched much of the show this movie was based on but the movie was pretty good. Seeing so many characters and references to shows past and present combined into a movie filmed during a pandemic is a fun time.
Honestly, it feels overwhelmingly like a parody script that got its hands on the real IPs, and...the finished piece...this is to it's detriment. The movie has an overwhelming sense of it hates what its doing, but overdoes it anyway just to prove how much it hates it, and it doesn't really work in the end. It doesn't respect itself enough to make the overabundance of cameos feel worthwhile. It's one thing if these were all parodies, but if we're supposed to believe these are the real characters we know and love, it kind of ruins the characters themselves in retrospect when you go back and watch them in their native media. There's no sense that anyone cameoing was treated with respect by whoever made the creative decision to put them in. Like the animators are doing their best but the writers aren't giving them the material they need to achieve their best. The scene where Chip and Dale rap about not eating whale kind of sums it all up for me. The movie established that Chip hates rapping, but then it makes him rap later, and the rap's complete garbage. Aren't these two a pair of Disney's mascots, if anyone could improvise a rap Whose Line Is It Anyway style and have it still be passable, it should be them, but it's just not. And that may have sounded funny when they wrote it, but it's not funny to actually watch. The whole movie feels like it was fun to write, but miserable to make, and then resulted in not being fun to watch.
I thought the story of Sweet Pete was sad and kind of in bad taste considering what happened to Bobby Driscoll. And how Disney and Hollywood treats child actors as they age. Plus Sweet Pete here is voiced by Will Arnet, who also played BoJack Horseman who was a former child actor who is washed up.
I'm fairly certain the pitch for this movie was something like "Let's make a new Roger Rabbit, but with characters who already exist" and Chip And Dale were the most well known characters that Disney would allow the creators to use, the film was then written around them.
I would honestly say I t’s the kind of film I wish Space Jam a new legacy was with how it leans more with the self aware tone and its commentary on the animation industry, and I say that as someone who enjoyed a new legacy.
2:33 All the characters aside from the Rescue Rangers are actually hand drawn, it was outsourced to the studio in France that does all the Gorillaz music videos. MPC ( Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2) does all the CG for the film
5:17 Tigra actually replaced the Marvel characters that were MEANT to be in that scene, Punisher ( got removed due to the Proud Boys using his logo for hate speech) and Sabertooth ( X-Men has a new animated series so he was no longer seen as obscure enough)
@@MathieuLeblanc1991 honestly Punisher being used and that being the joke would’ve been funny. Imagine him trying to come up with new logos and trying to be extra nice to all his fans to prove he’s not like the people who use his image only to snap after the tiniest inconvenience
So let me get this straight. When Space Jam 2 and Free Guy had pointless cameos that added nothing, it was called "distracting" and "they're just showing off what they own" but when this movie does it (as well as renting out others) it's excused? What's the difference? As far as I can tell, they're just companies stroking their own egos saying "look at all these things we own" without actually doing anything with (most of) them. In fact, it's even more of an ego stroke because of the rental characters. It's like someone at Disney watched Space Jam 2 and was like "oh wow WB owns a lot of IPs, we gotta one-up them somehow" and then said "We'll flaunt our money by RENTING IP's! It'll make it seem like we own more than we do! Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!" SO, why does this movie get a pass at IP whoring and the other two I mentioned don't?
What did everyone think of Chip n' Dale?

I didn't like it
There is a DBZ Easter Egg. When go to the scene in 3:10 in the bottom left corner, you can spot Shenron
I love this movie. I also think all the little cameos were TOTALLY worth because it helps sell the idea that ALL cartoons are part of this world. If they spent time beyond a joke or cameo for every single one then it would have been bad. It would have taken up too much time and ended up as an emoji movie. If we get a sequel, or another movie in this world with a different set of main characters, I'd LOVE to see some UA-cam animated characters make an appearance. Hell, Odd1sOut has a cartoon on Netflix now.
It was alright, not the best, but not the worst either.
I'm just sad they didn't add a Gravity Falls reference in this.
You've got to feel somewhat sorry for Sweet Pete by the end. Despite being an awful person, he was kicked out of Hollywood simply because he aged, which is sadly a true commentary on how child stars are discarded by the industry once they get older.
If even happened to Bobby Driscoll, the original actor
@@chasehedges6775 Which is what people are talking about when referring to Sweet Pete. His backstory is almost note for note what happened to Bobby Driscoll and the fact no one raised their hand and asked if this MIGHT be disrespectful to his memory is shameful. Poor guy died of a drug overdose.
The reason he got kicked out was because of a change in management at Disney who despised having to deal with kid actors so he got the boot and no one told him until he tried to come into the studio and couldn't get past security.
I would of liked it if Mickey as a Buinessman would of came in and admitted how awful both him and his company were and wanted to make up for it by supporting him for his trial
Forget Sweet Pete! Robin Williams’ version is the BEST version of an adult Peter Pan. No one can change my mind.
I originally thought Sweet Pete was a nod to the Peter Pan from the Fox animated series as there was an episode of him growing up which caused Never Land to nearly cease to exist.
However now that I know it’s a nod to what happened to the Disney voice actor, it’s kind of depressing
For me, the world the movie takes place in is the highlight.
I like seeing toons walk around in the real world, and the fact that we got so many different art styles and animation styles was really cool.
Your absolutely right,Dtoons love your channel by the way can’t wait to see more of your videos in 2023 👍🏻
You're still around?
I thought youtube would have drummed you off since, they hate animators, so much.
Yeah, although I don't exactly like the plot itself the world of the movie is the highlight! Especially since it's a relatively unexplored concept only ever happening as full length movies like 3 times from what I can remember. Yeah we got animation in real life in movies but seeing how a world like that would work is pretty unexplored territory.
A movie like this really hints at what a "Pinky and the Brain" movie could have been like, for better or for worse.
Or Bonkers.
I would totally love a self aware Pinky and The Brain movie
Mostly worse. Does ANYONE miss the Spielberg-toon 90’s when cartoon jokes were grownup off-topic sitcom entertainment-industry in-jokes about La-La-Land celebrities??
(Besides the filmmakers of this one, that is.)
honestly, having Tigra in the movie is way funnier than having Cheetara, the Thundercats characters are too iconic and recognizable, having the one avenger that has not made the jump to movies or pop culture fame, while every other character on her show already have their own series or movies, that is just funnier
*flashbacks to Cheetah Woman from Wonder Woman 1984 and She-Hulk from She-Hulk: Attorney At Law* I think I can understand why Tigra hasn’t been brought into the MCU yet.
I'm not even sure Tigra was meant to be a substitute for Cheetara. I think she intentionally put in that scene because she was a part of a failed Avengers series.
I don't get the significance of Lumiere tho?
A couple notes:
1. Tigra actually is a real character from Marvel. They were originally going to use Sabretooth.
2. The director claimed in an interview that they didn’t intend to mock Driscoll and just wanted to have a commentary on child stars being abandoned by Hollywood; they were originally going to use a grown-up Charlie Brown but claimed that it was easier to get the rights to Peter Pan (of course, knowing what happened with Charlie Brown’s voice actor, then the you-know-what would’ve REALLY hit the fan).
Not to mention they almost made Pluto the bad guy instead of Peter Pan.
So, all-in-all, using a grown-up Peter Pan would seem like the lesser of evils.
What happened to Charlie Browns Voice actor?
@@nekonomicon2983 he sadly took his own life this year.😔
@@marshmallowfluff2nd413 oh my God I didn't know that
This seriously felt like a fan made film that hollywood and disney said "Yeah put it on Disney Plus"
I was okay with everything in this movie except for the Zipper and Gadget relationship. When you think about it too much, it messes with you.
My biggest issue with this movie in general was how visually ugly it was. A lot of the jabs they take at other animation styles felt hypocritical because their own visuals were just as offputting. My second-biggest issue is that the movie is ultra-nerdy sometimes in terms of how many deep-cut references are crammed into it (which I enjoyed), but other times it seems to completely ignore basic stuff like the fact that the Chip 'N Dale: Rescue Rangers TV show was itself a re-imagining of the characters for the late 80s. They had been in theatrical shorts decades before that, and the movie acts like those never existed.
The animation and CGI were ugly, but nothing compares to how offensive it is for mocking the memory of Bobby Driscoll.
Titanic the animated movies are only more offensive because of the higher casualty number.
I can't believe people actually thought they hand drew Chip and Sweet Pete like I thought it was obvious CGI. But this hs what happens when the general audience watches a movie I guess. They just go "stfu and be happy with the content given". Like honey no if I don't like it, I'm gonna say it and that's that. This movie just looks BAD.
Yeah if anything Chip and Dale would have been better off being part of the classic Disney Entourage of characters. It's the side characters who would have been struggling for work.
If you go into this thinking it’s gonna be a Rescue Rangers movie, you’re gonna be disappointed. It’s more using the IP as a jumping off point for a totally other story
Personally the whole concept would have worked with Bonkers.
I want there to be a Nostalgic Critic review episode of Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers in the future. Just think of all the jokes Doug could come up with for that.
Precisely, it would have the potential for a full on episode.
That’s would actually really dope if he did a review of the seasons.
Including having the always happy father and drunk mother?
Yeah I've seen someone suggest the Cola Cult episode for Dark Toons and that'd be a good fit.
@@TheAlexSchmidt I've seen MovieBob use clips from that episode in his shows from time to time.
Months later I'm still wondering what the hell I just watched, but in a fun way. This movie is so inexplicable in its premise, execution, and ideas that it can't help but be admired for its moxie and gall.
The spiritual successor to _Who Framed Roger Rabbit_ we didn't know we needed, but absolutely deserve. Also, Ugly Sonic is amazing. And am I the only one who finds it weird that the movie had two DreamWorks characters, but no Pixar characters aside from real cars with windshield eyes?
I mean, if you look closely at the inside if Dale's fridge, you do see a frozen dinner with Frozone on the boxart.
@@jlev1028 Okay, I guess that's something, but I meant characters actually walking around and doing stuff.
I didn't deserve to see Bobby Driscoll get mocked.
I'll watch Roger Rabbit thanks, this bastardization can go f**k off.
@@jlev1028 also the giant Pete at the end has Woody's leg
I don't call it a spiritual successor, I call it the unofficial sequel.
Just Roger being there would be a cameo, but when Pete reaches for the eraser, there is Dip right next to it.
I say this is the world of Roger Rabbit, around 70 years later.
Ugly sonic is the only reason I even bothered giving this movie a chance.
The only thing I had issues with was the backstory they gave Sweet Pete (and the fact that he was Peter Pan… oh boy)… I took issue with it because of what happened to the real VA behind Peter Pan. I know Doug touched on it but it’s really uncomfortable knowing Disney ALSO rejected the actor once he grew up 😬
They KNEW what they were f**king doing. Someone in Disney is a disgusting loathsome being for making that decision.
that was pretty messed up. And what makes me madder, is that people just don't believe that Disney did this on purpose, that it was just a coincidence. God I hate twitter.
Im honestly okay with it, since I never knew about the real actors story until this movie brought it to light.
To me, this feels more like Disney getting this off thier chest, and admitting that what happened was screwed up, and it should never happen again.
@@HB-fq9nn I do like the thought of that but I sadly do not have hope that Disney will get better at such things.
@@HB-fq9nn Which would've been great... but they made him the villain with no redemption.
It was an okay movie. I will forever say my favorite joke in it was when Chip came home and he was listening to "Laid to Rest" by Lamb of God. I died laughing.

Thank goodness it's just used as another joke.
LoL ya Chip or Dale never had a chance despite lusting over her the entire show 🤣
This is definitely the most entertaining movie I’ve seen all year and the self aware humor works mostly here. Ugly Sonic is easily the highlight. Omg the Seth Rogan character cameo blew my mind and still does
There was an interview with the director right when the movie came out and you're right. The side characters are traditionally animated and they wanted to do that for every character, but the movie's budget was very small compared to a theatrical release.
This should have been a theatrical release. It would have given theaters something while they were starved for movies, and it would have granted a bigger budget.
Under Bob Chapek, Disney was really screwing over traditional distribution outlets like cable and movie theaters in favor of a streaming-centric strategy designed for them to control the channels and not share the profits with others
@Poever it would've been nice in the theater for sure, but how many people would actually see it? I know I wouldn't have and as far as I know none of my friends or family have been in a theater for a while now.
@@Poever It was likely decided early on to be a Disney + release so the budget was limited.
@@hollowowlyt well they’re quitters
The movie ´s budget was so small ??? Small enough that they managed to buy rights from Dreamworks and South Park ? and others companies ?
I had a really fun time with this movie. As soon as Tenacious D started playing as the intro, I knew we were in for a treat. My friends and I had an amazing time seeing all the characters they squeezed in, particularly when they go into the lab where they harvested the parts. We were on the floor just imagining the horrible reasons as to why these characters would get mixed up in the evil plot. Like... they scaled Jimmy Neutron. They took Dora the Explorer's legs. Monty has Dumbo's ears. What kind of debt did all these innocent characters have to pay to be mutilated like that? I don't know but I'm here for it. Also fake Swedish Chef was amazing. I don't know why they didn't just use Swedish Chef, but what they gave us was great. Besides that, the movie itself was pretty good. Even if they didn't have all those cameos in there, I feel like the movie is kind of like Roger Rabbit where it could hold its own just fine but I'm so glad they went that extra mile with it so that it FELT like Roger Rabbit. I didn't really grow up with Looney Tunes or Mickey Mouse the same way previous generations did. I knew who they were but they weren't as big anymore by the time I came around, so when I saw Roger Rabbit for the first time, it didn't hit me as much as it might have hit people in the 80s. So to see almost every major cartoon that I grew up with represented and even seeing characters like Randy Marsh or the Simpsons in a CHIP AND DALE movie was beyond mind-blowing the same way people would have seen Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, Woody Woodpecker, and Droopy all together in Roger Rabbit. Plus, I think it's interesting that Disney would even ALLOW all that in their movie. So I really had fun with this one and I think it's going to be something I watch quite a few more times.
The cameo in this that blew my mind the most was when Mr. Natural showed up. I never in a million years would have expected to see an R. Crumb character appear in a Disney movie (or any modern movie, for that matter... it's just especially weird that it was Disney).
Did anyone else notice that Bonkers was one of the hostages? Basically, the Toontown Chief of Police got too close to the truth and went missing, and I think we should have learned more about THAT small detail. I'm still glad they worked it in as a cameo.
Doug… both Sonic movies are great. It follows the terminator path, where the first one sets the ground work and everyone loves the second one.
But we need to pray to God that the third Sonic movie is amazing. The Sonic franchise needs that.
After watching this movie, I’m thankful for the original Sonic design in the first trailer because without it, we wouldn’t have Ugly Sonic in this movie.
I have one problem with the villain. The idea of his identity and the why is fine but... the plan?
"We are doing bootleg Disney movies!"
But most of them are based on public domain fairy tales... you don't need to bootleg. You can do something legit, my dude.
Also, you were let go because you grew up... and you have a machine that alters your design... [intensly stares at the two points made back and forth] TWO PLUS TWO, GENIUS!?
Also also... ehm, this is the same backstory of the original VA irl, but... so in this universe "Return to Neverland" never happend?
Bobby Driscoll... for how many times he mentions the actor who played Peter Pan and his tragic history, it's really odd he never once says his name... Bobby Driscoll!!!
I love this movie. I also think all the little cameos were TOTALLY worth because it helps sell the idea that ALL cartoons are part of this world. If they spent time beyond a joke or cameo for every single one then it would have been bad. It would have taken up too much time and ended up as an emoji movie. If we get a sequel, or another movie in this world with a different set of main characters I'd LOVE to see some UA-cam animated characters make an appearance. Hell, Odd1sOut has a cartoon on Netflix now.
Given that Tigra is 1. a Marvel character, 2. a member of the Avengers, 3. was depicted as she was in the largely forgotten Avengers: United They Stand cartoon, and 4. the only main character of that show's line-up who has not yet crossed over into the MCU (Wonder Man's show is coming up), I think that her cameo in this film was entirely deliberate.
I'm in the 'it was insensitive to have it be Peter Pan' crowd, and I think it was further insensitive to have Will Arnett performing something real close to his Bojack Horseman voice, another actor destroyed thanks to the culture of Hollywood. I think it could have been Christopher Robin, growing up means leaving behind his friends and the Hundred Acre Wood. I suppose that could have the drawback of real Christopher Robin growing bitter and resentful towards his father, but it wouldn't be such an on the nose allegory for the very real boy chewed up and spit out by Hollywood for all the exact same reasons as the character in the film.
I really enjoyed seeing a world with Toons that didn’t exclusively revolve around Hollywood. I was wondering if film was the only job available to them. (Which in the 40’s it probably was.) I also give major kudos for their explanation on bootleg products. Clever, yet terrifying and depressing. I can’t help but look at those kind of products differently.
I heard someone say that if Roger Rabbit is a love-letter to animation, Chip ‘n Dale is a death-threat to the industry. The movie is very cynical toward Hollywood.
Actually the Tigra cameo is from an old 90's Avengers show, a really deep cut about a C list Marvel character
I would believe that would fit being around other washups compared to Cheetara since Thundercats is still popular like He-Man is.
One of my favourite cartoons of all time. Films fine, but… Zipper & Gadget? Kids? Come on guys. You couldn’t think of any other way to use them?
That whole thing was really just a flip of the bird.
Fun fact: Ugly Sonic was going to be Jar Jar Binks but Lucasfilm said no.
That theme song is still stuck in my head.
Same here. It’s so memorable
Kind of surprised Critic didn't make a comment on the fact Gadget and Zipper became a couple and had kids in this movie??? Considering Zipper was like a pet character in the OG show, that detail I found so incredibly weird.
Ugh, it's getting Daphne and Scooby-Doo together or something.
This is definetly one of my favourite 2022 films to come out this year. Very good.
I think that’s honestly surprising considering how meh this year has been.
@@chasehedges6775 that’s a bold statement
Honestly I think the thing with Peter Pan being the villain would've worked better if it was Pinocchio instead. Like him grown up after becoming a real boy.
Or growing old instead of becoming a real boy.
Yeah my biggest complaint was how LITTLE we got to see of the Rescue Rangers all together.
I mean Zipper and Gadget could have been cut out of the movie entirely and almost NOTHING would change.
Considering he pops up in a scene, you cant not convince me this doesnt take place in the same uinverse as WhoFramedRogerRabbit.
Now Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers is one of the good examples on making a live action movie based off a cartoon done right
Even if it's a meta movie.
I found myself enjoying it. There's more cameos that he never went over like I saw Blaster from Transformers but the cameos never felt "overstuffed" if that makes sense. It helped contribute to this world where real people and cartoons co-exist. However what brings down for me is Sweet Pete and when I later learned his backstory was eerily similar to the real life Bobby Driscoll who voiced Peter Pan. I'm not sure if it was intentional but it's hard for me to rewatch the movie knowing that and I kinda wish they chose someone else.
Reminder that Gadget got impregnated by Zipper.
Zipper. The fly.
Just leave this bizzaro parody universe to rot where it belongs.
Sweet Pete as the villan was actually last minute. There were other proposed antagonists including an older Charlie Brown and Pluto (a attempted nod to the early Chip and Dale cartoons). By the time they settled on Sweet Pete, it was most likely too late to adjust for the controversy.
I’m glad they didn’t go with Charlie Brown. I just don’t see Charlie Brown as a villain or as a cynical, middle-aged man or Toon. It would’ve been as bad as Sweet Pete. Less controversial sure, but still not good.
@@hunterolaughlin probably would’ve been more controversial because Charlie Brown’s original VA committed suicide this year
Tigra is actually a Marvel character. She is animated as she was in the Animated Series Avengers United They Stand.
I call this a guilty pleasure bc while it’s guilty of doing things I hate I can’t help but enjoy it. It’s the animation equivalent of a giant popcorn flick while having some good lines and jokes.
It’s funny. When I first saw this, I honestly thought this was going to be dead on arrival. And yet somehow l, I found myself pleasantly shocked at how well this was executed. From the various styles (were you expecting puppets and “claymation”?), and the cameos including the shocking inclusion of Ugly Sonic, it was all brilliant.
Well.. almost outside of Chip since the execution of his 2D was a bit too notable. Also it was nice to instill the horror of Seth Rogan laughing with three versions of himself. If this was made after the Mario film, you know Donkey Kong would have joined in too.
But yeah, as a “modern day Roger Rabbit,” this was a fair attempt. Not as mind blowing as Mickey and Bugs, but it comes closer than we would have initially thought.
Actually the puppets and claymation are just CGI made to look like puppets and claymation, but they are still more convincing then Chip.
Oh no, not dead on arrival, dead on departure, when you know who they deliberately choose to be the villain.
F**k you Disney.
I was certain there were four Seth Rogan characters in that scene.
I like this movie.. Pretty enjoyable just like the ladies are with Dong..
For me it was the Donald Duck and Daffy Duck going ham on the pianos is what shocked me as a kid. I still love that scene.
Actually hand drawing the character is the least they could do
I kinda wished they added tinkerbell in it and her relationship with peter would have been like a parallel to chip and dale with how she got to be famous while he was kicked to the curb and in the end she was the one who got through to him to stop the bootlegging. But that just my thought, it would been cool to see. Someone should write a fanfic about it
Lest not forget that this won the Emmy for Outstanding Television Movie.
I'll admit that the Ugly Sonic jokes really worked. Even if the Peter Pan villain felt like it was in especially bad taste.
Darkwing Duck: "Boo, hiss! We want Darkwing! We want Darkwing! Say it with me! We want Darkwing! What a load of malarkey!"
Also, yeah, Sweet Pete's backstory eerily paralleling Bobby Driscoll's life after Peter Pan is indeed uncomfortable and one more reason why I don't enjoy the movie as much as I used to. The filmmakers should've used a jaded Pooh or an envious Oswald as the villain instead.

Pluto was originally the villian, which makes sense if you remember in the classic shorts Chip and Dale were always fucking with him, this could have been his revenge on them
Tigra is a obscure Marvel character and that actually is her design from am early 2000s Avengers cartoon. I can't blame Doug for not knowing that
I was shocked to not only see Chip and Dale and the Rescue Rangers again but have it be a 2022 version of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but also see numerous crossovers and see the UGLY SONIC return as well as Peter Pan be a surprise villain so it's not as bad as some said it was.
I agree. Though, did you feel as blindsided as I was them having Gadget and Zipper married when the whole time thinking it was going to be a story of Gadget saying something like My husband!!! (meaning Monty)?
As a fan on Rescue Rangers growing up, I had a lot of fun with this movie. Like you said, I do wish there were more of the actual Rescue Rangers (I would have loved to have seen them all team up at the end). I also had problems with Dale being CGI and Chip being 2D. I think the reasoning they give for Dale getting the “CGI surgery” makes sense, but the two just look weird together and it doesn’t quite feel like Chip and Dale to me.
According to the director, the Rescue Rangers were going to be 2D, but the streaming budget wasn't big enough to do so
Honestly, I just wanted an actual Chip&Dale: Rescue Rangers reboot.
That's my biggest gripe with this film. There was NO reason this was a Chip&Dale film. This could've worked just as well (probably better in fact) with any other old show or series. The characters are revealed to have been actors all along, one of them messes up their careers and tries to fix this years later but they've grown apart and a chance kidnapping forces them to band together nevertheless... This could've been ANYTHING. The recognizable-brand-to-milk-for-nostalgia dart just happened to hit the Rescue Rangers.
One could argue this particular show was about solving mysteries and so it's perfect for this - until you realize neither "Chip" nor "Dale" are actually interested in solving the mystery. "Chip" is forced into being part of this movie, which is INCREDIBLY different from the show's Chip who I'd say was the most dedicated to seeing justice prevail, and "Dale" just wants "Chip" (and the kidnapped "Monty") for the sake of potentially restoring his/their fame.
Most importantly, the meta idea, as neat as it is, shouldn't have been done in a non-original film. It worked in Roger Rabbit, cause Roger Rabbit was a character we didn't know beforehand. This time around, we KNOW Chip and Dale and the Rescue Rangers, so the movie has to pretend they're actually actors, completely different characters, while it also still tries to pander to Chip and Dale nostalgia. You can't eat the cake and have it too - either you do Chip and Dale or you don't.
And don't get me started on what they did to "Gadget" and "Zipper".
@@ewormXD it's funny. I like this movie, but I agree with that sentiment. I look back on DuckTales 2017 and remember how that show got popular for doing similar things. Combining a serious story with a silly, self aware story. Creating a world filled with characters from different sources. And overall having a Post Modern feel. I go so far as to describe the premise as "what if the original Disney Afternoon was written Dan and Swampy/Alex Hirsch/Matt Broley/Dana Terrace style".
But that worked because it gave us Ducktales first. In the first episode, we got excited at the idea of this being a Disney Afternoon Universe because that was just foreshadowed. As was the idea of Huey Dewey and Louie having a mom. The changes that ARE treated as major are the basic ones that actually affect the Ducktales part: the triplets having more separate personas, Donald Duck playing a more active role, and Webby being less 80s girly girl and more Mabel/Star/Marcy/Anne/Luz/Molly the duck.
"Nobody wants a reboot!"
I still wonder if it might have worked better as a Bonkers movie, since that show was ALL ABOUT the meta toon world thing like Roger Rabbit, so it could have had the double benefit of staying in universe and being loyal to the show.
I will say people absoultely hated that Gadget got together with zipper. it felt wrong to a lot of people because it felt like she was getting together with he family pet of the show XD
I loved the copy written characters not just so I can point and scream "OH LOOK ITS THAT GUY!" but moreso to build a believable world where animated characters live among regular humans regardless of which studio they belonged to.
The BIRD JOKE at the end ~ i laughed so hard it hurt! XD
So they couldn't make a sequel to Roger Rabbit so they made this instead, I will never get past that fact
Ironically, Ugly Sonic was actually one of those "was supposed to be someone else" characters. He was supposed to be Jar Jar Binks.
I didn't bother watching because I wanted an actual Rescue Rangers movie. Something ironic and self-aware like this should've been its own movie.
It's like a modern day 'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'.
They were originally going to use Jar Jar Binks instead of "Ugly Sonic" in this role!
There's been no explaination as to why they changed it, but...Jar Jar Binks.
i do believe the cameos were worth it, otherwise ugly sonic popping up out of nowhere would've felt a bit awkward. This way, it makes sense that his part of this universe. But chip... yeah... I guess non-animation people literally can't tell the difference (it's pretty astonishing), and unfortunatly that's what the studio's counting on.
Wasn't expecting Gadget to have a bug fetish.

I thought this movie was not good, but oddly fascinating. Like it was not anticipated at all, barely if at all marketed, then it came out and everyone was talking about it, for a week, then suddenly no one remrmbered it existed.
The only really good joke i liked from the movie was the one where chip tried to hit dale to make the dizzy birds show up, cutting away to the birds literally waking up late for their shift.
This movie literally make me lose my voice laughing so hard
Same thing here. I would have enjoyed that film by far more if it had 2D animation.
I was disappointed it wasn't a true rescue ranger story like in universe with the tv show. Once I got past that and embraced it as a Ronger Rabbit esc film I really enjoyed it for what it was. Still hoping for a rescue ranger reboot with the whole gang.
(Ducktales 2017 was phenomenal).
Not gonna lie Doug you're the only person I've heard who thought this was good.
While definitely not up there to Who framed Roger Rabbit levels I do appreciate the attempt and creativity this film has.
Anything with creativity and charm is a win in my book
2:15
THANK YOU! FINALLY!
😫
Somebody else finally said it!
It should be noted that Akiva Schaffer (yes this was a 2/3 lonely island joint) said he was often surprised how much he was able get. In a “oh crap you actually got my little pony, I was kindof kidding”.
Honestly I thought this was really really funny. I thought all the background nods were nice to set up the world they were building and make it look like yeah, this is a world where cartoons are just there.
I still can't get over the massive tonal dissonance of the plot being about actual in universe "human" trafficking and slavery, complete with a mind-broken Flounder.
Did anyone else remember this but didn't know what it was? I remembered bits and pieces, but could never tell what it was. Than my brother started humming the theme song, and explained to me about and old show called Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers had a movie released. I'm just SO glad I finally, after all these years, know the name of the show that I could not remember.
They should’ve made Oswald the Lucky Rabbit the villain. Peter Pan as the bad guy makes no sense since Disney didn’t abandon the character & is just a tasteless joke since Bobby Driscoll, the voice of Disney’s Peter Pan, WAS totally screwed over & left to die in a ditch because he grew up. But Oswald’s already got the tragic backstory of being stolen in a legal loophole & losing the Kingdom that should’ve been his to Mickey (thus leading to his taking back what was rightfully his one bootleg & mockbuster at a time). Oswald’s got freaky self-disassembling abilities that could be duplicated on his weird splicing & dicing machines to mutate other animated characters. And Oswald could connect more easily to whatever they tried to give Chip & Dale than Peter Pan.
But Owsald fans would riled up if they did that but that's a fine missed opportunity.
This movie is basically Roger Rabbit of Chip and Dale, it’s a crossover of many cartoon characters!
I usually don’t care for these movies that just have cameos everywhere like space jam a new legacy, but I like this because of all the copyright stuff and it isn’t just Disney flexing with all the company’s they own
For me, it’s trying to be what galaxy quest did for tropic thunder. But what’s prevents it from being a good movie, is that it’s an adaptation of their ip. With the previous two working on their own, without winking their audience on what their mocking.
I was genuinely curious about how Ugly Sonic would look in the first draft. Now that I’ve seen this movie, I’d love to commission Paramount to reanimate every Sonic scene with Ugly Sonic. Sadly, I know there’s no amount of money they’d take to give me that cut.
I’m glad that they used the original Ugly Sonic movie design in the movie and make him useful as a law enforcement instead of “lol it’s Ugly Sonic”, and that’s all.
At least Ugly Sonic is on a movie and being useful. But man this movie looks fun to watch! Besides the nostalgic characters and all that mumbo jumbo, the movie in general looks fun to watch!
I never really watched much of the show this movie was based on but the movie was pretty good. Seeing so many characters and references to shows past and present combined into a movie filmed during a pandemic is a fun time.
Honestly, it feels overwhelmingly like a parody script that got its hands on the real IPs, and...the finished piece...this is to it's detriment. The movie has an overwhelming sense of it hates what its doing, but overdoes it anyway just to prove how much it hates it, and it doesn't really work in the end. It doesn't respect itself enough to make the overabundance of cameos feel worthwhile. It's one thing if these were all parodies, but if we're supposed to believe these are the real characters we know and love, it kind of ruins the characters themselves in retrospect when you go back and watch them in their native media. There's no sense that anyone cameoing was treated with respect by whoever made the creative decision to put them in. Like the animators are doing their best but the writers aren't giving them the material they need to achieve their best.
The scene where Chip and Dale rap about not eating whale kind of sums it all up for me. The movie established that Chip hates rapping, but then it makes him rap later, and the rap's complete garbage. Aren't these two a pair of Disney's mascots, if anyone could improvise a rap Whose Line Is It Anyway style and have it still be passable, it should be them, but it's just not. And that may have sounded funny when they wrote it, but it's not funny to actually watch.
The whole movie feels like it was fun to write, but miserable to make, and then resulted in not being fun to watch.
Fun fact: ugly sonic wasn’t plan to be put in it was originally going to be jar jar binks
I thought the story of Sweet Pete was sad and kind of in bad taste considering what happened to Bobby Driscoll. And how Disney and Hollywood treats child actors as they age. Plus Sweet Pete here is voiced by Will Arnet, who also played BoJack Horseman who was a former child actor who is washed up.
I thought the movie was decent but I was surprised about the references
I'm fairly certain the pitch for this movie was something like "Let's make a new Roger Rabbit, but with characters who already exist" and Chip And Dale were the most well known characters that Disney would allow the creators to use, the film was then written around them.
I would honestly say I t’s the kind of film I wish Space Jam a new legacy was with how it leans more with the self aware tone and its commentary on the animation industry, and I say that as someone who enjoyed a new legacy.
2:33 All the characters aside from the Rescue Rangers are actually hand drawn, it was outsourced to the studio in France that does all the Gorillaz music videos. MPC ( Sonic the Hedgehog 1 and 2) does all the CG for the film
5:17 Tigra actually replaced the Marvel characters that were MEANT to be in that scene, Punisher ( got removed due to the Proud Boys using his logo for hate speech) and Sabertooth ( X-Men has a new animated series so he was no longer seen as obscure enough)
@@MathieuLeblanc1991 honestly Punisher being used and that being the joke would’ve been funny. Imagine him trying to come up with new logos and trying to be extra nice to all his fans to prove he’s not like the people who use his image only to snap after the tiniest inconvenience
So let me get this straight. When Space Jam 2 and Free Guy had pointless cameos that added nothing, it was called "distracting" and "they're just showing off what they own" but when this movie does it (as well as renting out others) it's excused? What's the difference? As far as I can tell, they're just companies stroking their own egos saying "look at all these things we own" without actually doing anything with (most of) them. In fact, it's even more of an ego stroke because of the rental characters. It's like someone at Disney watched Space Jam 2 and was like "oh wow WB owns a lot of IPs, we gotta one-up them somehow" and then said "We'll flaunt our money by RENTING IP's! It'll make it seem like we own more than we do! Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!" SO, why does this movie get a pass at IP whoring and the other two I mentioned don't?
This entire movie is just Disney flexing and showing off how many characters from different film companies they can buy
