2014 Mr Enter: The Guy who got irrationally mad at a bad Spongebob episode. 2022 Mr Enter: The Guy who complained that 9/11 wasn’t in the panda puberty movie.
I think in 2014 he actually was a great reviewer. He really had a fun setting going with the mastermind judging him and being trained. That was just a fun arc he created for himself. He brought up a lot of good points and had a really engaging way of doing those reviews. He also had some of the best MLP reviews with his point system for objective things and the medal for subjective. It felt you were seeing exactly what he thought as he was watching it. However a lot of his later reviews just go on and on and on repeating the same things. While before he was very personal but balanced overtime his own personal feelings just got stronger and stronger. While before he could be quite strong on things like Patrick in your's mine and mine that was warranted for his behavior in the episode. So him becoming so emotional made his review only more engaging to me. It didn't feel like a dry book report like some reviews. He just really let his hostile nature overtake him and became more and more toxic and self-rightious.
Twitter is angry for a lot of reasons, alot that don't include him however lol. He's right on that one thing, though. Twitter is an angry, stupid part of the internet where people with bloated egos act as if their opinions matter.
@MetaphMIDI Part of it also is because some people really dislike Mr Enter from his past work I suppose. Personally just find him pretty funny to laugh at since he's rather obsessive about cartons to the extreme albeit he seemed to reign it in somewhat albeit in this case slips up at times.
The weird thing is almost nobody on Twitter was trying to cancel him. They were just making jokes about a 3 minute clip. Making jokes isn’t the same as trying to get someone “cancelled”. It wasn’t until the “hey you think this is bad? I’ve done worse tweet” that people even realized any of the bad takes he’s had over the past few years. He wasn’t really cancelled until he essentially asked to be.
@@dragonempress8367 He made a really long thread on twitter about how he was supposedly being "cancelled" because of his criticism of Turning Red and not for something like his anti-mask rants. He also ranted about how he totally was not mad that he was being made fun of, complete with an unironic quotation of Rick Sanchez.
He probably assumed that most of the other bad takes were common knowledge, and so he called out our alleged double standards with regard to him. Like, you know when someone has really arbitrary rules and you’re like, “Oh, so buying an expensive mansion is okay, but adopting a stray kitten is where you draw the line?” But yeah… it immensely backfired on him.
They could have mentioned it subtly. You don't have to actually mention it by name, but give a little reference to it. And there's nothing wrong with seeing a kid's perspective on real-world traumatic events in a movie where they are slowly growing up into the adult world. Just saying...
@@KingOfInsanity777 yeah okay but... it's a kids movie based off the personal experience of the director, who has said that 9/11 didn't really impact them much when they were a teen in 2002, so i mean...
Because Americans (who I assume Mr Enter is) think they are the Center of the Universe, and anything that big happening to them, everybody else would be as serious about or else.
Well, I was not living in Toronto, let alone Ontario at the time, but we did care at the time. But the film made the right choice to not focus on it. After all, it would be jarring and out of place. Besides, what would Mei-Mei do with that information? Why are people so up in arms with this movie?
@@atotallyrandomchickonthein5460 Exactly! That's like saying Finding Nemo needs a 9/11 reference because it was made during that time. It wouldn't fit or make any sense at all.
I know 9/11 affected the entire world(to many varying degrees), but i just find it so presumptuous that he needs american history and cultural changes to be depicted in a movie that takes place IN CANADA. Like, people joke americans try to insert themselves and their way of doing things in everything, but fuck, Mr Enter wanting the social changes of a terrorist attack in the USA to be depicted in a children's movie THAT, AGAIN, TAKES PLACE IN CANADA, is a whole other level of being self centered. Although a tragedy, 9/11 was not the biggest one for other countries where other similar tragedies have happened. Having grown up in the 2000's in a different country, i guarantee you I did not feel the impact of 9/11 AT ALL.
(my comment is a bit long, fair warning) I was just going to comment this. I happened to have been alive in 2001 and old enough to understand what happened and see it on the news a lot. Did it change anything about my life living in England? No. I was too busy playing Pokemon and trading the cards with my friends to care about some disaster that happened across the world. In 2001 - 2002 my main worry was being on time to record my favourite shows on VHS and creating a pop star boy shrine in my bedroom. The biggest worst event to happen was some kid stealing my Pokemon cartridge. I then FORGOT that it even existed until my parents were watching a documentary towards the end of the decade. I didn't even watch it, I was just in the same room doing my own thing and all I remember is seeing people jump out of windows. I remember connecting it to a movie my dad enjoys - The Towering Inferno - and just wanting it to be turned off because I was a kid and didn't care and didn't want to watch disaster movies. I was trying to draw anime characters. I knew about the war, but I also didn't know about the war. The most I knew about the war was that it was a Vague Thing Happening and that my dad was being weird collecting massive bottles of water in his bedroom possibly preparing for something to happen, but at the time, I didn't know what the hell he was even doing. Nobody was talking about it and in my memories, it seems like it lives in two worlds; the world where it technically existed the entire time, but also the world where nobody talked about it and acted like nothing was even happening and so I don't wholly correlate the war with my childhood - it's not there. This shouldn't be read as dismissive of what happened, but the reality that it just didn't affect children in other parts of the world. Especially in a time where (outside of adults talking about it) the only place to get that sort of constant information flow was the news or newspapers. We were hardly looking online for the news, some of us didn't have internet at all. Or a computer. One of my best friends came from a poor household and my dad gave them an old computer and a few games. It ran DOS. They didn't get the internet or Windows until ish 2006/2007. So what kind of child is happily reading a newspaper? I was cutting out pictures for my scrapbook, not (ptch!) reading it. In addition, many of us didn't have Sky or anything - we only had the 5 channels. What time does the news come on? The News at 6. 6PM is getting a bit on in the evening and I really don't think any kids would stick around to watch the Stinky Boring News Programme after doing their homework and finally liberated for the evening lmao And the adults? My only guess is that they didn't want to discuss world politics with their children. Too focused on getting them to do their homework, making it to their school plays / teacher-parent evenings and getting you to help do chores. And you know... all the other adult stuff like paying bills and going to work. I understand many Americans are traumatised over these events - especially those who lost somebody - but I'm sorry to say that the feeling isn't mutual. It was too far away for it to have an impact on children in other countries at all. Also I'm of the opinion that even if it was set in America, I still think it would be okay not to depict 9/11. I mean, its a movie about puberty and it's allowed to be a movie about puberty.
I was 7/8 years old in 2002. I would have been too young to observe and undertsand the social changes caused by 9/11 even though I was shocked by the event itself, the year before. I ddi not understand the full scope of what happened, but I saw photographs in the main lcoal newspaper and my parents explained the basics to me, and we prayed for the victims at my Catholic school and made a paper chain (though I don't remember the details of that.) (Edit: we also had a bomb drill that school year, but I don't know for sure how much that had to do with 9/11.) But it also did not completely permeate my childhood in Western Canada. I was much more focused on the Hex Girls, reading books, and spending time with my friends.
@@nataliejarosz9360, I was that age too, but I had NO idea at the time what was going on; I was in daycare when it happened. It wasn't until years later that I was told how my parents reacted to the whole ordeal.
I'm sorry, but Mr.Enter doesn't think a visual style should tell a story set in a time period it didn't exist yet?? By that logic, Cinema as a whole shouldn't do Period pieces at all, hell if Mr.Enter had his way Westerns wouldn't exist or anime cover the Samurai genre.
@@zoid3515 To be fair, the writing in that film is pretty mediocre and definitely worked better in its original memoir form, and I bet Mr. Enter, as an occasional book writer, would say the same.
I feel ashamed that you looked at something Mr Enter said, and think its a reflection of what Americans think. Mr Enter's brain doesn't work like normal people's, and I'd be surprised if any American unironically said "we need to run and get help from CANADA!" after 9/11.
@@luckyducky7819 I didn't say anything about Americans needing help from Canada. I said Americans need to realise the USA is not the center of the universe
@@3crowsinatrenchcoat Thats the big thing that bugged me about his review. How little he seemed able to grasp that his angst and biases were not the universal culture of society, just because he hates everything outside himself. He's too self-centered to give a good faith review.
There’s a significant portion of sad anti-American bullies like you who need to learn to respect people from other countries and not rely on stereotypes.
@@Namato360 I will say that even if that's the point, its so over the top no real human being would forgive their parents for such things. And I think the guy who made the original video actually had a point; if you are gonna make a family member flawed but redeemable do it like Encanto, because no one would forgive Doofenshmirtz's parents in a normal setting and we shouldn't forgive the mother for how insane she was acting.
Uhm, I hope you realise Ming was extremely accurate to Overbearing parents...Also the point with Bruno was that he was never actually a bad person, just viewed as a bad person. And Dr's parents are ment to be bad, and are actually abusive. Ming felt bad about what she did aswell and she loosened her reigns at the end and I'm pretty sure she was/is trying to get better
@@Chillipowww Ah yes, accurate... Look, I had an overbearing mother, but she would never go into a random public place where my crush were to show him the drawings I made of him. That's over the top, which is not bad, but its not something you can easily redeem. This kind of things would take years to heal, and the relationship between her and her mother at that point idk how is still on.
The “mom should have gotten the cops called on her for trespassing at the school” point is theoretically half-okay . The thing is, THAT EXACT SCENE was actually based on a real event from the director’s life that lol. Mr. Enter time travelling back to 2002 and telling an elementary school in Toronto the way they reacted is actually “historically inaccurate”. In reality, most people always see “the news” as a separate parallel thing unless it directly effects them, and just live “normal life” the way that comes “normally” no matter what happened. People just get a twisted imagine that historical events defined everyone’s lives because that’s all they learn about those time periods, and it’s hard for our brains to imagine ourselves actually living in those times.
What he said was just hyperbolic though, and wasn't guaranteed to happen. He made it sound like it was a complete police state everywhere in 2002 after 9/11 which it wasn't. There was harsher security at airports, not schools, and the mother was calling out to a person there. I think it would be easy to figure out she was not a threat but they would still escort her off the premisis. Everything he said were things the movie could have done differently but hyperbolic rewrites is not actual criticism. Everything he said was just his own biases that hes holding against it. They also don't have police in elementary schools, until they do now.
It's like saying "the people in this 2022 romance movie set in the US seemed to be unaffected by the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan, so it's historically inaccurate"
@@darkzeroprojects4245 Well, that was the point. They’re trying to normalize periods, so making it too subtle would defeat that purpose, I would think.
@@ammonitetheseaserpent3761 Too subtle? How can ya make your mother screaming you forgot your pads subtle? Normalizing?Why does that need to be or even be known and mention to accept by a average individual?
Obviously 9/11 doesn't matter for a Canadian based 13 year old girl's fantasy puberty adventure movie, but I don't know how he doesn't consider the possibility that maybe, just maybe, the movie takes place in a universe where 9/11 didn't happen? It doesn't have to be our exact reality, it's a movie with red panda transformation for god's sake.
His criticism doesn't even make sense with greater context, he acts like she's skulking around school grounds in a ski mask carrying a big duffle bag that could be filled with weapons, she's literally just wearing sunglasses and standing behind a tree. it wouldn't even be unreasonable for the guard to assume she's a parent who got lost or something, rather than calling the police which would escalate the situation, and all because of 9/11 I guess? i really don't get the connection there
@@anaveragegamingchannel1843 Except she was saying it pretty obnoxously that was a kid's mother. They wouldn't tackle her and drag her away. They would take her to the front of the school, she would explain herself, she'd give the school the hygene product for Mei and then leave. Mr. Enter just has issue with any form of unrealistic exaggerations of cartoon scenarios because he doesn't like satire. Somehow he can praise Family Guy.
Even though I strongly disagree with Mr. Enter wanting Domee Shi in Turning Red to show how 9/11 changed her life in 2002, he might have a point as to how Turning Red could make an indirect reference to 9/11 by having a lot of increased security around the school to keep Ming Lee out and have the police arrest her for trespassing on school grounds.

Bruh his point about the anime stuff is so idiotic. It's like i would be angry anout the fact that aladdin had a lot of refrences about celebrities,disney and more even though it's set in like more than two thousand years ago
He's also wrong because the creator never said she took influence from from Naruto and One Piece. Sailormoon and Ranma 1/2 pre-dates the movie (from 1995-1998), thus being inspired by it would be plausible for the time period. It was from the early 90s and the biggest anime in *Canada* (as it was dubbed there first) next to Inuysha. So its not even a got'cha. Thats why people make fun of him.
Heyoooo! And yeah I loved the anime art style of the movie. I used to watch sailor moon a lot as a child so that took me back since I was in fact a kid in 2002
Genuinely forgot he existed until I found this video. I stopped listening to him after it seemed he did nothing but hate rants on everything. He use to actually review things both with good and bad notes on them. There's literally a youtuber called "I hate everything" that makes better constructive criticism of things while at least remembering to be able show some humor.
Pretty much. He had some moments where his criticisms were decent and he had some varied approaches, but now it's mostly just negative junk. His most recent reviews have been middling at best for a while now.
Mr. Enters criticisms feel a lot like nitpicks. "Boys bands were on the way out in 2002". Ok, but does that mean they couldnt exist??? By that logic everyone should only do what was trendy in a movie set in a specific time period. Every movie set in 2017 that has a character listening to a song has to make SURE that song was despacito or else plotwhole smh
I also feel like he read that off TVTropes and just put those points it into his review, because everything he said was actually on the Turning Red and Boy Band page before his review. Almost word for word. But they were nitpicks that were pretty ridiculous overtechnicalities. As in Hollywod always gets some historical aspects of things in media wrong here and there, but to dock points from a review over them is pretty ridiculous.
"I also feel like he read that off TVTropes and just put those points it into his review" I haven't read TV Tropes in a while now. It's so inconsistent and is filled with frequent contradictions to the point it's difficult to take it remotely seriously. A newspaper is all you need.
Boy bands never go away really, there’s always new ones popping up. The 80s had New Kids on the block and new edition, 90s had *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys, etc. every generation has boy bands. I bet mr enter world hate shows like Django unchained, Marie Antonette and Bridgerton just because they used modern music in time periods where they never created yet, but it makes the show tell the story better.
Boys band were NOT on the way out in 2002, the fucking jonas brothers TV series (which was kind of popular with girls in my school) came out in 2009 ffs. It's like the emo kid in 2002 is talking about how everyone else was emo in 2002, even the other gender.
Boy bands are popular NOW, just in Kpop form. And they definitely didn’t die out with Justin Timberlake. Me and my sister would obsess over 1D, Mindless Behavior, the Jonás Brothers, etc.
10:54 This is incredibly rich coming from a man who specifically criticised Season 3 of _Rick & Morty_ because it tried to be more serious and character-driven when Rick is a complete A-hole.
Cinemasins aren't really supposed to be snobby movie critics, but a parody of every snobby movie critics. Nowadays, it becomes the very thing they make fun of. At least Cinemawins, the opposite of Cinemasins, is better than that.
I can’t with this man. Had to unsubscribe like months ago after he went on a weird anti-mask rant among a bunch of other things. I finally realized he was unhinged and he was never going to get better. I basically jumped off a sinking ship. He also fucking lost me when he said all the 13-year-olds would’ve been emo in Canada because of 9/11. My soul left my body and my brain literally malfunctioned.
I can't beleive I used to watch him back in the day. This review brought me back to him and I realized how awful his reviews were, I'm pretty sure I unsubbed because he was yelling about an mlp episode I liked 😭 it's honestly sad that it doesn't seem he hasn't grown or changed over the years.
There was a youtuber called Father Elijahcal that i had to unsubscribe from since he used his community feature to spam facebook joe biden bad memes and being generally dismissive of the pandemic. I liked him when he talked about fallout but eventually it got too much for me as well
I stopped watching him after he criticized your name and samurai jack s5, I don't remember what it was, but at that point I realized he didn't know what he was talking about. I don't hate the guy, but I fear he's going down the same path as ApolloLegend.
@@zebefreod871 I can't say much for Your Name because I haven't watched it, but Samurai Jack S5 did kinda fall off past the middle point. But to call it an Animated Atrocity seemed a bit extreme.
When I first watched it, I actually did think about 9/11 when I realized it took place in 2002. But then I realized it took place in Toronto, and I stopped caring.
It's such a western-centric point of view as well. Maybe anime wasn't popular in the US in 2002 but it sure as fuck was in Japan. Must a film's visual language be dictated only by western tastes and culture?
@@LordMangudai I mean, Toonami actually existed back in the early 2000s as well as other anime like Astro Boy and the OG Pokemon aired in the US at that time. So the popularity of anime in the USA is nothing new.
I've always looked up to Mr. Enter. We're both on the autistic spectrum, and we love animation in general. He takes the medium seriously no matter what audience a show or movie it's trying to appeal to. Nothing is above criticism, and the target audience should never be an excuse for quality. With that in mind, he has made bad takes before (i.e. the U.S. Healthcare System), and this is no exception. While I think it's important to capture the authenticity of the time period, a director has a right to use whatever color pallet/art style they see fit. And the situations Mr. Enter described as "unrealistic" (referring to the overbearing mother) actually happened to the director in real life. In other words: "personal experience". As for the "anime style" being "too fringe" for the time period, anime had started taking a foothold, at least in North America, in the late 80's/early 90's. Films and shows like _Pokemon_ , _Sailor Moon_ , _Princess Mononoke_ , _Akira_ , and _Spirited Away_ really made an impact on pop culture, and the medium never stopped growing from then on. Even if anime was *NEVER* popular in that time period, again...it's the director's choice to pick whatever art style they see fit. And Domee Shi, being of Asian descent, was probably a huge anime fan growing up and wanted to incorporate that in the story. The whole 9/11 thing, while tragic and undeniably impactful, wasn't the sole focus of the story. And some things take time for a tragedy to really take affect. Either the event didn't really affect Domee Shi all that much personally (at least at that point in time when she was a teenager in 2002), or the concept of puberty was a little more prevalent/timeless by comparison. Once again, again...the story is from her point-of-view; "personal experience". And a person's perspective is usually subjective (at least in a creative narrative sense). I still enjoy watching Mr. Enter's content, but even I can acknowledge when he messes up from time to time.
Yeah, I think it’s obvious, but kids kinda struggle with empathy. Especially with European/American kids and the events in Ukraine. You see a bunch of them joking about it because they’ve never experienced the horrors of war. A lot of them don’t know how to empathize properly, I’ve mostly understood it through people’s war diaries, and a lot of teens don’t seek that stuff out, whether it’s because they don’t care or because it’s too much for them to process. I’d imagine it was the same thing with 9/11. Especially in Canada, where it didn’t happen, and where most people probably didn’t actually see footage of the towers getting hit. And they’re middle schoolers too, who are known for being empaths (sarcasm). I just can’t imagine how a Canadian middle schooler would even comprehend a tragic event that happened in another country. Like if you walked up to a Canadian middle schooler, or any middle schooler for that matter, and asked them what their complex and nuanced thoughts on 9/11 were you’d probably be deemed insane by the general public, and for good reason. I just fail to see how any functional person who knows how small the average middle schooler’s world is, could possibly even bring up 9/11. It really is baffling.
To add on to the anime bit, he is aware that *Toonami* existed in the 2000's, right? I don't know if Canada had Toonami or something similar to it, but to say that anime wasn't relevant in the West during the early 2000's is, uh...false. Sure it wasn't as mainstream as it is nowadays, but even still.
Toy Story is an amazing series, but it's kind of held back by the fact that the _plastic_ toys never once talk about the abundance of microplastics accumulating in the environment.
I really don't understand why people dislike "Turning Red" that much... I personally loved it a lot. It has this overly energetic tone that I really enjoyed and as someone who went through puberty herself: *I can relate*
Even as a guy, I enjoyed the film and just...wanted to enjoy a movie like a normal person. I didn't relate to it, but that didn't matter. It was a cute movie.
Because for some reason a lot of people, mainly edglords, think that since they don't like something or that it doesn't suit their taste, it's automatically bad.
Eh, I'm personally don't really care about this movie that much, but I also feel that the whole hate surrounding this movie is just as intolerable and ridiculous as the thing it's mocking, especially with how overblown, illogical, and over-exaggerated Mr. Enter's argument is (I wouldn't even go this far!). This dude literally just made a fool of himself. It's just that some people decided to start jumping on this hate bandwagon because they think it's “cool”. 💀
I used to watch Mr. Enter during my late-teen years and genuinely enjoyed his content. Looking back at it, he was an awfully angry individual, too angry over certain tropes in animation. It's hard to watch now. The last time I watched him, he was reviewing an episode of Sabrina: The Teenage Witch. He got so mad he went into a fury-filled rant when one of the characters said that the high school years are the best years of your life. Sure, that's not true for many of us, but that wasn't worth the anger he put into it. I also don't like how he judges entire shows by watching one episode. Seeing what he said about Turning Red, he sure has gone further downhill.
He also gets too pissed off when he reviews piece of 💩 Spongebob episodes, compares everything he hates to porn or whatever he considers unpleasant and blocked comments from his video which means he can't take criticism.
@Introvera your right about that! I honestly really wish his rant wasn’t a rant cuz that message you send was actually good! I just wish that he acknowledged that and just tell the message that Isn’t a heated rant.
Most adults aren't really mature. Just because you pay your taxes and hold a job doesn't make you intelligent nor mature lol. Him being immature is par for the course imo.
"Congratulations, Mr. Enter. You are entitled to one Werther's Original. It will be delivered in approximately one business day." Best part, hands down.
Enter has become a hybridization of Doug Walker's pontificated baseless nitpicks and Tommy Wiseau's blatant self awareness. I was aloof towards him for a while but I flat out hate him now.
I always saw this movie as a kids version of Carrie but with a red panda instead of psychic powers. Ming is like Carrie's mom with how overbearing she is and how she treats the red panda. Mei is like carrie where she has a special condition that she has to learn to live with. Also both movies use puberty as B plot that slowly starts to somehow affect the main plot.
Mr.Enter should've continued making more for the Admirable Animations series. He could shed light on some good UA-cam series like some Gobelins animations, Autodale, or even some stuff about Uncle Joe. Instead of reinventing the wheel over and over again.
Well, yes. He was supposed to review underrated gems that he likes and wants to share with us! It is why he has the most popular video on UA-cam talking about Bounty Hamster. Juliet Cowan and Alan Marriott are welcome for him giving their cartoon twenty times more recognition in 2016 than it had 10 years earlier. I will cherish his reviews of Noel, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs and Bounty Hamster for all time. There was no reason for him to stop Admirable Animations at 60 videos and I wanted to see him get to Admirable Animations #100! April 26, 2022, 11:50am
Did he stop making those? That's a damn shame. Those videos were the reason I started watching Steven Universe and Rick and Morty, I'm not even kidding.
i can probably tolerate his behavior if he's just a random teenager making poor quality videos but no, this man is 30 In his review of the Ellen Cartoon, he said "celebrities make bad children's books". which gives me the impression he spends his time reading books literally made for children
So... Adults can't read children's books? Is that what you're saying? Cause I do that in order to create books people enjoy. That's like saying an adult can't like mlp.
@@dragonempress8367 there's a difference if you like products just exclusively made for children and products appropriate for a general audience. Im talking about his statements about books exclusively made for children if you like MLP [i assume if you like the show as a guy] and you find a community of people with the same interests, thats fine, but dont expect all people to be on board with it i tried watching some MLP episodes but couldnt go all the way through. for me, the show gives off too much feminine energy. shows like the loud house have a heavy female cast, but the show feels gender neutral.
I don't know but most children's books were written by adults. Roald Dahl and Dr. Seuss are the primary examples of that. That's like if an adult can't watch a cartoon because it's made for kids, which it's something that Mr. Enter is against.
@@poweroffriendship2.0 Yes but it's reasonable if youre making children's content that's not exactly the type of quality as content made for a general audience. if a children's content is [for a lack of better words] mediocre or bad, then just be it. the content creator knows children aren't that critical so why bother if an adult aren't happy with the product. like, most childrens content are educational and corny, and the target audience CLEARLY isn't the adult demographic. so just leave it alone
IF THERE ISNT A GRITTY, HORRIFIC 9/11 SCENE, I WONT WATCH IT 😡😡😡 I NEED THIS PANDA MOVIE FOR CHILDREN TO COVER AMERICAS MOST IMFAMOUS TERRORIST ATTACK RIGHT NOW!!1!!!!
Being irrationally angry at media is only entertaining when you do it in a funny way, like AVGN or tenc1999, but those people are trying to be funny and don’t actually piss themselves in anger at stupid shit.
People took "angry" reviewers way too seriously. And now people take "political analysis" essays way too seriously. Nowadays you can't just _dislike_ something, you have to tell everyone why it's the absolute worst thing ever and its fans should feel bad for liking it.
AVGN is funny but he's also critical and informative when it comes to video games and its history added with toilet humor dialogues and all the absurdity that happened around him. James Rolfe knows the difference between his persona and his real self. I also like to add "I Hate Everything" because his content revolves around... well... hating on everything that is popular, but he doesn't take the hate seriously as if this is supposed to be a parody. Unfortunately, most people take his words too seriously. There are times when the hate does justified, like the video about Emoji Movie and Tik Tok.
I originally got the wrong idea when I heard the 9/11 thing. Turning red has a lot of representation, and some of it is subtle. Like the secretary guard and a few other characters being Muslim. My brain immediately went there and was wondering if he was referring to the fact that people don't seem to have a problem with Muslims after the 9/11 in Canada. Those are just my thoughts this man's actual explanation however made no sense.This man in unhinged
so according to the ~mysterious~ Mr. Enter, because i was born in 2001 (post 9/11) i must now remind others of said tragedy, so "obligatory 9/11 mention" i guess. But seriously Mr.Enter is a downer, we don't need to be reminded of 9/11 constantly, yes it happened and it changed the world a lot, but in real life people still picked themselves up and got on with life. Besides i don't think people turning into giant red pandas is historically accurate.
hold tf up, in Mr. Enter’s top 10 worst cartoons of the 2010s list he literally complained about how so many cartoons of that decade would get political and said that we tune into shows, movies, games, etc. to distract us from the world around us, not have it shoved in our face, and yet he’s saying this??? huh????
Contrary to popular belief, there IS in fact an acknowledgment of the September 11th attacks in the film. Mei's mom kicks a poor dude wearing a turban in the shin just for checking to make sure everything's okay, presumably out of a prejudice and aversion to people of Middle-Eastern descent that manifested as a reaction to the attacks. That just makes Mr. Enter a double-dumbass lol
@@CMan-x7k Keep in mind, this is the same woman who specifically singled out Mei's white friend as the "odd" one, so it's possible she's just a racist prick in general. (Take that, intersectionality!)
I thought it was just for a joke, I never thought nothing like that because the characters never talk about these problems, and it isn't implied either. The cop could have been from any nationality and the joke would worked the same.
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster i dont think ming singled her out because shes white ……. i think she did that because miriam is the most weird out of all of them because she skates and is a little more alternative than the rest.
I had the feeling Mr. Enter's review of this movie would be bad. I did not think it would be stupid, braindead levels of bad. Like dude, it's a damn movie. It's not a reflection of real life and is about a girl turning into a red panda.
Not everything has to include a tragedy that isn’t related to the movie. If it isn’t related to 9/11, nor is it planning to acknowledge it because it’s not about 9/11, what is the use of making this point if it isn’t obligated to talk about it in the first place? The movie is set in Canada, Toronto and the year is in 2002. Any movie that takes place during or after 9/11 isn’t obligated to speak about it if the film isn’t related to it at all. Again, it’s not obligated to. It doesn’t have to focus on it. I wish many understood this, because there isn’t a connection. At least I don’t see the connection. Come on, it’s about a young Chinese Canadian girl who deals with cultural expectations and her power to turn into a red panda because of her emotions. Why would it be about 9/11 which takes place in America, New York City, where it isn’t related to the plot at all? Must I add that it’s a PIXAR MOVIE??
Especially with his nit-pick about the phones, cameras and the other 2000’s things in the movie, even though Polaroid went bankrupt people could still have them beforehand that still work. I mean when I traveled to Florida for the summer in 2019, my phone was acting up with signal. My dad had the crazy idea of unboxing the phones we used back in 2006, with the built in keypad and everything. And it still worked! I could even watch UA-cam videos made today on it and saw the old text features, except it fell out of my pocket at Publix and broke later on.
Also, I still have my old VCR from when I grew up in the 2000s, and I *still* watch movies on it to this day, especially after I fixed the pinch roller.
9/11 had zero cultural impact for westerns beyond those who have soldiers in their family, the damaged parts of New York, and the few Muslims who got harassed shortly afterwards, but those are not even sub-cultures. The only cultural impact was the continuing trends of Islamophobia and anti-theistic New Atheism, but 9/11 was a drop in the bucket factor for those trends, which were mostly impact in the online early and mid 2010s. Considering he got backlash for his takes over the pandemic, yet he never closed those comments. Plus, he complaints about brigading are dumb because they boost him algorithmically which could make up for his lost subs. Him compiling about the back lash on Twitter only dug his grave and ironic since he would "idk care" but precedes to make Twitter posts.
I was born in 01 so I can't say much but like, whenever it does come up people just talk about how shocking it was to see it on the news at the time. That's it. I might actually ask my parents how Canada was pre and post 9/11 out of curiosity because I can't imagine it having that much of an impact on their lives.
@@unoriginal_name4576 I bet, in which the only impact would be a drop-in-the bucket factor for islamophobia but a minor change in a trend that is way less of an issue than in the US.
I remember watching it happen on TV as a kid. But even in NYC where I lived people stopped talking about it after a couple of months. The only impact it had on my family was that they were scared of going on planes for that year.
@@NEVETSGILBERT1233 It wouldn't because it didnt happen there. Its why the Confederate Civil War and WW2 are not taught in Canada either. I mean how do Americans seriously think that the world just moves in lockstep with the US?
I remember seeing a comment on a video about the failure of Growing Around that said “I’m convinced that Enter has set his standards so high, that he doesn’t even know what makes animation good anymore.” That perfectly replicates this review
I also want to point out that the entire movie is set in toronto canada and as someone who lives in canada I can say that we were not too paranoid or affected too much to panic by the events of 9/11. It was definitely a tragedy that affected the whole world but terrorism was never a large impact on Canadians culture and a mother walking in a school yard would never warrant a police tackle but more so a simple interrogation. I was always more afraid of a fire or a fight over a terrorist attack.
Well if people that don't like Turning Red are using 9/11 as a talking point for a movie about puberty/growing up and it also being a family friendly movie then they are really running out of excuses.....I totally unsubscribed from that dudes channel after when I heard that because it was so ridiculous....Personally I loved the film and thought it was one of the best P.I.X.A.R film in year's
In 2002, the UK was going through a foot-and-mouth disease crisis, and Canada has a tangential connection to the UK due to the Commonwealth. The fact it was never mentioned in the movie ruined my immersion. Mei should have washed her hands in every scene and refused to eat beef due to fear of the illness. This is deadass how ridiculous the 9/11 logic is 💀
@@josephrowe849 , yeah I know and I disagree with him. The 2000’s is actually a pretty good era for cartoons despite some flaws and the cartoons from that era are much better than most cartoons today.
2000's had the OG Teen Titans, ATLA, Invader Zim, the Proud Family, and Danny Phantom, so imo that era was fine. I'm sure there were bad shows too but bad apples come out of every decade.
@@josephrowe849 2000s cartoons are good for the time. If he said that 2000s are the worst time for cartoons, why does Mr. Enter make a review of a Fairly Oddparents episode?
@@poweroffriendship2.0 IDK but he should've explained why he didn't think the 2000's were a good time for animation even though we had crappy cartoons in the 90's and even today. There's always some good and bad animations in every generation.
The movie itself was great honestly, even though I am a man some of the friend group moments resonated with me, this guy just outright speaks against PIXAR fully and is causing more problems for them and it is really at this point just bullying... Sure 9/11 was an important historical event, but like, when exactly did the location change from TORONTO CANADA to FRICKING NEW YORK... Never much? PIXAR is making it's own universe so it is not historically accurate like at all? They can make references to them, but it literally is a movie about a non historically accurate movie, this guy failed the movie review. The grade I have given Mr. Enter: F- (Take it from someone who has taken digital literacy, speech, and movie critics :])
I don't think he realizes this, but even if people were actually angry at him, has he figured that maybe some people are sick of this movie getting shit on for no reason? This movie has been criticized for everything - from witchcraft to satanism to promoting sex work??? - and personally I'm sick to death of people hiding their obvious racism and sexism to make bullshit claims about the film. There's things to critique about the film of course but that's definitely not it.
I feel that way. This movie got so much shit from absolutely nothing but it just existing, due to conservative backlash and excessive nitpicking, despite most nonpolitically motivated reviewers liking it.
@@GeteMachine It's not "absolutely nothing/politically motivated" to objective to 13 year old [as in U N D E R A G E] children twerking being portrayed as acceptable [do not even try to disagree with me on this, unless you want to out yourself as a degenerate. Don't agree with basic fact? Too bad, so sad]. Not to mention such stellar dialogue as "My Panda, My Choice" [that line is completely unacceptable in a kid's movie, full stop. And don't give me that "adult references" or "more mature topics" bullcrap, either ; comparing turning into a panda to the topic of PRO CHOICE VS PRO LIFE, as in A B O R T I O N, is officially crossing the line]. That's not even mentioning the whole "period allegory" stuff that's in the movie, like with the scene with the main characters mother about pads. While I can understand talking and discussing such a topic with female children so as to assure or calm them for when it happens to them, having it be done as an allegory like this with the whole panda thing is really bothersome. Why can't we just discuss these things with our children ourselves, instead of relying on a cartoon movie to relay this information? On that note, the whole part about her using her panda form to fund seeing her boy band is really questionable and definitely gives off a "prostitution/selling yourself" vibe. And just in case you try and say this is "overanalyzing", don't ; this movie already clearly associated the panda transformation with puberty/periods, so what are we supposed to read from a main character using that ability as a monetary transaction? These are really important real world topics that should be strictly off limits for children until at least 13-14 in age, and this movie is clearly directed at that audience [i.e., children up to the ages 10-12], NOT teenagers age 13 to 17-18. We should not be trying to relay these topics through cutesy kids movies ; we should be DISCUSSING them with our kids, as parents. If you refuse to accept any sort of criticism of the movie's themes or questionable messaging because it's somehow "nitpicking", however, the movie itself is a by the numbers coming of age story, and is mundane as all hell. It's mediocre, bordering on outright low tier garbage. And while this is more of a personal opinion, for me, it doesn't strike a good balance in the cartoony animation. By which I mean, the facial expressions, which are rather obnoxious. Like I said, personal opinion, but I HATE it when cartoons use the "lolgoofy faces", it just really annoys me. Feels like they're dangling keys in kid's faces. The animation also reminds me of a Grubhub advertisement, which is never a good thing for any piece of media [this point may seem like nitpicking to you, but this style of animation to appeal to kids is really getting on my nerves, and I'm sticking to my guns on this]. Bottom line, this movie is a obnoxious piece of background noise at best, and at worst, it's really gross and questionable. I'm so sick and tired of people pretending criticism is unwarranted just because "it's Pixar they do no wrong". Like, I thought people were starting to be just a little bit more critical of Pixar in recent years, but then this comes around, and now everyone is blindly praising them again. Coco was being rightfully blasted for stealing from the ideas of Book of Life, but now suddenly everything is hunky dory?
thank you, literally no reason to be so angry abt turning red, the movie is fun and i personally enjoyed it, i would’ve never imagined the stupid discourse it produced
@@funghoul693 You did not read a single word that I wrote, because if you did, you would have actually realized you are wrong. Just because you "personally enjoyed" (your words, not mine) this movie, does not make the discourse "stupid", and saying that shows you have no critical thinking skills whatsoever.
I've never actually seen this movie, but it seems like a movie a lot of people are mixed on. Actually, I was introduced to it by Mr. Enter's review and I actually found it immensely funny seeing the storm to brew after people picked up on the 9/11 comment he made. The hardest I've laughed in months.
They could've had the girls watch a popular Canadian cartoon like Ed Edd n Eddy to get a idea to make money. Or have Tyler and other kid feud over the PS2 and the original Xbox while Mei is stuck with a gamecube.
"stuck with a Gamecube" thats a funny way to say got the best of the three nah but seriously it's better then the og xbox other after me can debate whether they prefer the GameCube or ps2. Also hay canadian here ontarian to be exact and I'll say mr enters review is probably the worse I seen cause even if you want to put the whole 911 thing into account which mind you has nothing to do with the movie and shouldn't be focused on 911 wasn't as big a deal over here as in America someone who actually grew up in that part of the world at that time should know
Why would a coming-of-age story about a girl would turns into a humongous red panda set in CANADA mention or be about 9/11? Not everything has to be about politics. Besides its set in 2002, I'm sure things would have calmed down by now.
I didn't like it that much but like. I'm also not a kid? Not that adults can't enjoy this movie, or that cartoons are only for kids. But this is the sort of movie I would have liked if I'd watched it 10 years ago...when I was a young girl lol. And like mr enter I am also a big fan of children's media but when it's bad or cringey I just move on. Unless the message is inherently harmful to kids. It isn't a big deal, at all. Children's media can still be reviewed and critiqued but I've seen so many people get SO irrationally upset and angry in their reviews of media made for kids, and it seems that is all he does. He needs to stop purposely watching content he knows will make him angry and probably take a break from youtube. I haven't watched him in years and he is still acting the same. Like bro you're a 30 y/o man why are you getting mad about how unrealistic you think a mom openly bringing pads to her daughter at school is. It's not worth the energy and time.
"he needs to stop watching content that will purposefully make him angry" I'm sorry what? Sometimes it's freaking funny to watch people get mad at content. That's why AVGN exists. While I agree that him ignoring critique and getting mad at the littlest inacuracies is stupid, I gotta admit the man is funny. And it'd be boring if he talked about things he liked only.
@@dragonempress8367 that's obviously not what I meant, have you seen Mr. Enters content? It seems like doing nothing but watch children's cartoons that he knows are going to anger him is actually affected his mental health. I never said 'no one should ever watch media that makes them angry'.
Yeah, I feel like some people just can't handle the fact they're not the target audience anymore and hate on everything aimed at children. Kid's movies should absolutely respect their audience, but some grown adults really need to lower their standards a bit. Kids deserve comfy escapism too.
*Mr. Enter: "get annoyed because movie ignored the 9/11"* *Me: Who cares? This wasn't movie's issue, bruh. The movie wasn't even showing to take place in America but in Canada, so...*
I never understood why ppl keep saying the stuff Ming does is unrealistic. IT'S A CARTOON!! Tons of cartoons have overbearing parents who are super exaggerated for either comedic effect or to illustrate how super overbearing they are.
I agree that including it would make the movie a little more interesting for adults, but considering what the movie is it wasn't needed.And besides, how would they include it without out it becoming distracting?
To even do a topic like that, the entire movie would have to focus on it or it would be accused of shoehorning it. Let alone it likely not going to be marketable because Disney or people would find it inherently offensive to not portray it in acertain way, desdpite how dated that expectation of its retrospect would be in the present. Like paranoid islamaphobia wouldn't be justified, it would have to be shown from their perspective to be fair in present day. Considering the movie was just about millenial childhoods, it seems pretentious that he would bring up those red herrings.
A bit late but: re the 9/11 thing: Enter's even wrong then. Mei's mum isn't a random adult, she's the parent of one of the kids who goes to the school - even if she doesn't make a habit of this, and come on, she cleary does - the staff'll know her from parents evenings and other such things.
How would 911 effect these characters, not really much. They’re in another country and her life is centered around her friends and boys. If 911 was mentioned in this it would feel weird and out of place. This movie was based off of the directors childhood if my memory serves me right.
Let's address the real elephant in the room: the Cinderella movie. why is it not in black and white??? Why doesn't the prince have a slave accompanying him at all times, serving as a stool for example? also there was little to no representation of famines, plagues, disease and poverty on display in the movie, doesn't make a lot of sense imo, but Twitter and the Tik Tok generation will obviously disagree 🙄🙄🙄😮💨😮💨😮💨🤥🤥🤥😓😓🥸
"She would not have just been confronted by the school guard, she would have been tackled by the police." This is asinine for several reasons 1) This is Canada. Not the United States. Heck, the idea that police were waiting to jump on mysterious adults approaching school is... itself kind of weird. 2) Ming was probably well known. Trust me - even if it was August-September or whenever the film takes place, she would have been WELL KNOWN. (Especially since Mei is in 7th-8th grade. Assuming this goes grades 6-8? Yeah, 100% the faculty would know Ming by appearance because "Oh no. Not Her..." 3) This is Canada. The police aren't as jumpy towards asian people in 2002. 4) This. Is. CANADA!!!!! You can't assume everything functioned like the US, especially your very part of the US. Because if I had been able to direct a period piece like this, and based it off of my own experience(s) during 2002, you'd probably consider it to be unrealistic as well - even though I live in the US, specifically Colorado, people weren't that paranoid - in fact several adults were able to walk not just up to the school but right INTO the school unattended. No cops. They'd only call the ocps if they were seen trying to break into the school. Oh and in 2002, yeah, people watched Sailor Moon and InuYasha.
I love how adult white men are watching a movie about a 13 year old Asian girl going though puberty and then wondering why they didn’t relate Nooooo…really?! 😱 Also it’s Canada and this movie has nothing to do with 911
If you watch that video about the making of the movie , the director talks about how she made it early 2000’s because that’s when she grew up and she wanted to base it off her child hood
There no guarantee it is in the same universe as ours, 9/11 happend in the US not Canada, so impact on its people wouldn't as big directly like here, it's probably a footnote there. Example Lockbie UK, or Jonestown why would you put a 9/11 in this movie anyway at the time when movies and comics were editing stories, movies posters and books covers that took place in NY
So dude is mad that a move about a Canadian teenager getting her period in 2002 doesn't have 9/11 references. Like no wonder I unsubcribe to him a long time ago.
Worst part is that Mr enter compares this to the real world, its a FICTIONAL world INSPIRED by real life, maybe (and hear me out here) FICTION DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THE EXACT SAME AS REAL LIFE????? We are literally talking about a world where HUMANS THAT TURN INTO GIANT, TALKING, RED PANDAS.
I think people forget that this movie takes place in Toronto witch is in Canada Why would a movie that takes place in Canada mention 9/11 when 9/11 was an event that happened in the US
It was a reference to Nokia the Finnish company. It's accurate, because text were sent in T9 English. Anime always had niche audiences, but Anime was primarily mainstream or first became a household form of entertainment as of the early 2000s. Eventhough there were terrorists attacks, girls still went through puberty. Just like the their grandmothers did during the Pearl Harbor attacks. They liked swing and early animation in film. So, no matter what happens around the world; you'll still go through puberty.
2014 Mr Enter: The Guy who got irrationally mad at a bad Spongebob episode.
2022 Mr Enter: The Guy who complained that 9/11 wasn’t in the panda puberty movie.
That wasn't even set in the United States
That part makes it even more ridiculous
Mr Enter, though I was once a fan of him because I was an edgy teen, has always been a melodramatic crybaby inserting his views into everything.
@@flaflaflamingo I wasn't an edgy teen but I was once a fan of his (not sure why, maybe for the kicks).
*Mr Enter have serious problem.*
I think in 2014 he actually was a great reviewer. He really had a fun setting going with the mastermind judging him and being trained. That was just a fun arc he created for himself. He brought up a lot of good points and had a really engaging way of doing those reviews.
He also had some of the best MLP reviews with his point system for objective things and the medal for subjective. It felt you were seeing exactly what he thought as he was watching it.
However a lot of his later reviews just go on and on and on repeating the same things. While before he was very personal but balanced overtime his own personal feelings just got stronger and stronger. While before he could be quite strong on things like Patrick in your's mine and mine that was warranted for his behavior in the episode. So him becoming so emotional made his review only more engaging to me. It didn't feel like a dry book report like some reviews.
He just really let his hostile nature overtake him and became more and more toxic and self-rightious.
Twitter isn’t “angry” with him the way he constantly insinuated with those tweets, they’re just laughing at him.
200th like
Twitter is angry for a lot of reasons, alot that don't include him however lol. He's right on that one thing, though. Twitter is an angry, stupid part of the internet where people with bloated egos act as if their opinions matter.
@MetaphMIDI Part of it also is because some people really dislike Mr Enter from his past work I suppose. Personally just find him pretty funny to laugh at since he's rather obsessive about cartons to the extreme albeit he seemed to reign it in somewhat albeit in this case slips up at times.
Did you see the comments section? He had to shut it off because EVERYONE was shitting on him.
He's cant even handle people simply making fun of his arguments.
The weird thing is almost nobody on Twitter was trying to cancel him. They were just making jokes about a 3 minute clip. Making jokes isn’t the same as trying to get someone “cancelled”. It wasn’t until the “hey you think this is bad? I’ve done worse tweet” that people even realized any of the bad takes he’s had over the past few years. He wasn’t really cancelled until he essentially asked to be.
The Barbra Streisand effect. He wasn't actually cancelled till he called himself to be cancelled.
Idk they're maybe was a few?
I tbh didn't get to see the Twitter drama commnce and saw so idk.
... wait what? I feel dumb that I didn't get that.
@@dragonempress8367 He made a really long thread on twitter about how he was supposedly being "cancelled" because of his criticism of Turning Red and not for something like his anti-mask rants. He also ranted about how he totally was not mad that he was being made fun of, complete with an unironic quotation of Rick Sanchez.
He probably assumed that most of the other bad takes were common knowledge, and so he called out our alleged double standards with regard to him. Like, you know when someone has really arbitrary rules and you’re like, “Oh, so buying an expensive mansion is okay, but adopting a stray kitten is where you draw the line?” But yeah… it immensely backfired on him.
Why would they mention 9/11 in a kids movie about puberty?!
I don't know, but i think we can all agree that Toy Story suffered greatly from its lack of a desert storm narrative
Especially since Canada is not the USA lmao.
They could have mentioned it subtly. You don't have to actually mention it by name, but give a little reference to it. And there's nothing wrong with seeing a kid's perspective on real-world traumatic events in a movie where they are slowly growing up into the adult world. Just saying...
@@KingOfInsanity777 yeah okay but... it's a kids movie based off the personal experience of the director, who has said that 9/11 didn't really impact them much when they were a teen in 2002, so i mean...

Like, people joke americans try to insert themselves and their way of doing things in everything, but fuck, Mr Enter wanting the social changes of a terrorist attack in the USA to be depicted in a children's movie THAT, AGAIN, TAKES PLACE IN CANADA, is a whole other level of being self centered.
Although a tragedy, 9/11 was not the biggest one for other countries where other similar tragedies have happened. Having grown up in the 2000's in a different country, i guarantee you I did not feel the impact of 9/11 AT ALL.
(my comment is a bit long, fair warning)
I was just going to comment this. I happened to have been alive in 2001 and old enough to understand what happened and see it on the news a lot. Did it change anything about my life living in England? No. I was too busy playing Pokemon and trading the cards with my friends to care about some disaster that happened across the world. In 2001 - 2002 my main worry was being on time to record my favourite shows on VHS and creating a pop star boy shrine in my bedroom. The biggest worst event to happen was some kid stealing my Pokemon cartridge.
I then FORGOT that it even existed until my parents were watching a documentary towards the end of the decade. I didn't even watch it, I was just in the same room doing my own thing and all I remember is seeing people jump out of windows. I remember connecting it to a movie my dad enjoys - The Towering Inferno - and just wanting it to be turned off because I was a kid and didn't care and didn't want to watch disaster movies. I was trying to draw anime characters.
I knew about the war, but I also didn't know about the war. The most I knew about the war was that it was a Vague Thing Happening and that my dad was being weird collecting massive bottles of water in his bedroom possibly preparing for something to happen, but at the time, I didn't know what the hell he was even doing. Nobody was talking about it and in my memories, it seems like it lives in two worlds; the world where it technically existed the entire time, but also the world where nobody talked about it and acted like nothing was even happening and so I don't wholly correlate the war with my childhood - it's not there.
This shouldn't be read as dismissive of what happened, but the reality that it just didn't affect children in other parts of the world.
Especially in a time where (outside of adults talking about it) the only place to get that sort of constant information flow was the news or newspapers. We were hardly looking online for the news, some of us didn't have internet at all. Or a computer. One of my best friends came from a poor household and my dad gave them an old computer and a few games. It ran DOS. They didn't get the internet or Windows until ish 2006/2007. So what kind of child is happily reading a newspaper? I was cutting out pictures for my scrapbook, not (ptch!) reading it. In addition, many of us didn't have Sky or anything - we only had the 5 channels. What time does the news come on? The News at 6. 6PM is getting a bit on in the evening and I really don't think any kids would stick around to watch the Stinky Boring News Programme after doing their homework and finally liberated for the evening lmao
And the adults? My only guess is that they didn't want to discuss world politics with their children. Too focused on getting them to do their homework, making it to their school plays / teacher-parent evenings and getting you to help do chores. And you know... all the other adult stuff like paying bills and going to work.
I understand many Americans are traumatised over these events - especially those who lost somebody - but I'm sorry to say that the feeling isn't mutual. It was too far away for it to have an impact on children in other countries at all.
Also I'm of the opinion that even if it was set in America, I still think it would be okay not to depict 9/11. I mean, its a movie about puberty and it's allowed to be a movie about puberty.
Whole heatedly agreed!
I was 7/8 years old in 2002. I would have been too young to observe and undertsand the social changes caused by 9/11 even though I was shocked by the event itself, the year before. I ddi not understand the full scope of what happened, but I saw photographs in the main lcoal newspaper and my parents explained the basics to me, and we prayed for the victims at my Catholic school and made a paper chain (though I don't remember the details of that.) (Edit: we also had a bomb drill that school year, but I don't know for sure how much that had to do with 9/11.) But it also did not completely permeate my childhood in Western Canada. I was much more focused on the Hex Girls, reading books, and spending time with my friends.
Again, a simple Google search would fix his review.

@@zoid3515 To be fair, the writing in that film is pretty mediocre and definitely worked better in its original memoir form, and I bet Mr. Enter, as an occasional book writer, would say the same.

I feel ashamed that you looked at something Mr Enter said, and think its a reflection of what Americans think. Mr Enter's brain doesn't work like normal people's, and I'd be surprised if any American unironically said "we need to run and get help from CANADA!" after 9/11.
@@luckyducky7819 I didn't say anything about Americans needing help from Canada. I said Americans need to realise the USA is not the center of the universe
@@3crowsinatrenchcoat Thats the big thing that bugged me about his review. How little he seemed able to grasp that his angst and biases were not the universal culture of society, just because he hates everything outside himself. He's too self-centered to give a good faith review.

That is exactly our point that Turning Red can have a story take place in May of 2002 without referencing 9/11 from September 11, 2001!
Him: I don't like Ming, she is a overbearing.
The writers: Um that is literally the point.
i see what you did there
@Captain Ken That's...not true though. Like at all.
@@Namato360 I will say that even if that's the point, its so over the top no real human being would forgive their parents for such things. And I think the guy who made the original video actually had a point; if you are gonna make a family member flawed but redeemable do it like Encanto, because no one would forgive Doofenshmirtz's parents in a normal setting and we shouldn't forgive the mother for how insane she was acting.
Uhm, I hope you realise Ming was extremely accurate to Overbearing parents...Also the point with Bruno was that he was never actually a bad person, just viewed as a bad person. And Dr's parents are ment to be bad, and are actually abusive. Ming felt bad about what she did aswell and she loosened her reigns at the end and I'm pretty sure she was/is trying to get better
@@Chillipowww Ah yes, accurate...
Look, I had an overbearing mother, but she would never go into a random public place where my crush were to show him the drawings I made of him. That's over the top, which is not bad, but its not something you can easily redeem. This kind of things would take years to heal, and the relationship between her and her mother at that point idk how is still on.
The “mom should have gotten the cops called on her for trespassing at the school” point is theoretically half-okay . The thing is, THAT EXACT SCENE was actually based on a real event from the director’s life that lol. Mr. Enter time travelling back to 2002 and telling an elementary school in Toronto the way they reacted is actually “historically inaccurate”. In reality, most people always see “the news” as a separate parallel thing unless it directly effects them, and just live “normal life” the way that comes “normally” no matter what happened. People just get a twisted imagine that historical events defined everyone’s lives because that’s all they learn about those time periods, and it’s hard for our brains to imagine ourselves actually living in those times.
What he said was just hyperbolic though, and wasn't guaranteed to happen. He made it sound like it was a complete police state everywhere in 2002 after 9/11 which it wasn't. There was harsher security at airports, not schools, and the mother was calling out to a person there. I think it would be easy to figure out she was not a threat but they would still escort her off the premisis. Everything he said were things the movie could have done differently but hyperbolic rewrites is not actual criticism. Everything he said was just his own biases that hes holding against it. They also don't have police in elementary schools, until they do now.
@@GeteMachine Tbh what annoyed me was it was used to make a Menstruation Joke as subtle as a modern family guy cutaway.

@@darkzeroprojects4245 Well, that was the point. They’re trying to normalize periods, so making it too subtle would defeat that purpose, I would think.
@@ammonitetheseaserpent3761
Too subtle?
How can ya make your mother screaming you forgot your pads subtle?
Normalizing?Why does that need to be or even be known and mention to accept by a average individual?
Obviously 9/11 doesn't matter for a Canadian based 13 year old girl's fantasy puberty adventure movie, but I don't know how he doesn't consider the possibility that maybe, just maybe, the movie takes place in a universe where 9/11 didn't happen? It doesn't have to be our exact reality, it's a movie with red panda transformation for god's sake.
His criticism doesn't even make sense with greater context, he acts like she's skulking around school grounds in a ski mask carrying a big duffle bag that could be filled with weapons, she's literally just wearing sunglasses and standing behind a tree. it wouldn't even be unreasonable for the guard to assume she's a parent who got lost or something, rather than calling the police which would escalate the situation, and all because of 9/11 I guess? i really don't get the connection there
I think he meant more that Ming's actions could've been considered predatory
Plus while she's driving away he calls her Mrs. Lee! Like he definitely knew she was a parent
also it's literally based on a real thing that the director's mother did in 2002
@@anaveragegamingchannel1843 Except she was saying it pretty obnoxously that was a kid's mother. They wouldn't tackle her and drag her away. They would take her to the front of the school, she would explain herself, she'd give the school the hygene product for Mei and then leave. Mr. Enter just has issue with any form of unrealistic exaggerations of cartoon scenarios because he doesn't like satire. Somehow he can praise Family Guy.
Even though I strongly disagree with Mr. Enter wanting Domee Shi in Turning Red to show how 9/11 changed her life in 2002, he might have a point as to how Turning Red could make an indirect reference to 9/11 by having a lot of increased security around the school to keep Ming Lee out and have the police arrest her for trespassing on school grounds.

Mr. Enters criticisms feel a lot like nitpicks. "Boys bands were on the way out in 2002". Ok, but does that mean they couldnt exist??? By that logic everyone should only do what was trendy in a movie set in a specific time period. Every movie set in 2017 that has a character listening to a song has to make SURE that song was despacito or else plotwhole smh
I also feel like he read that off TVTropes and just put those points it into his review, because everything he said was actually on the Turning Red and Boy Band page before his review. Almost word for word. But they were nitpicks that were pretty ridiculous overtechnicalities. As in Hollywod always gets some historical aspects of things in media wrong here and there, but to dock points from a review over them is pretty ridiculous.
"I also feel like he read that off TVTropes and just put those points it into his review"
I haven't read TV Tropes in a while now. It's so inconsistent and is filled with frequent contradictions to the point it's difficult to take it remotely seriously. A newspaper is all you need.
Boy bands never go away really, there’s always new ones popping up. The 80s had New Kids on the block and new edition, 90s had *NSYNC and Backstreet Boys, etc. every generation has boy bands.
I bet mr enter world hate shows like Django unchained, Marie Antonette and Bridgerton just because they used modern music in time periods where they never created yet, but it makes the show tell the story better.
Boys band were NOT on the way out in 2002, the fucking jonas brothers TV series (which was kind of popular with girls in my school) came out in 2009 ffs. It's like the emo kid in 2002 is talking about how everyone else was emo in 2002, even the other gender.

EXATCLY
“Why wasn’t 9/11 in a kids puberty movie set in Canada”
I'm not a fan of the movie but his "anime criticism" is not correct. Spirited Away was released in America in 2002, which became a global phenomenon.
It's such a western-centric point of view as well. Maybe anime wasn't popular in the US in 2002 but it sure as fuck was in Japan. Must a film's visual language be dictated only by western tastes and culture?
@@LordMangudai I mean, Toonami actually existed back in the early 2000s as well as other anime like Astro Boy and the OG Pokemon aired in the US at that time. So the popularity of anime in the USA is nothing new.
I've always looked up to Mr. Enter. We're both on the autistic spectrum, and we love animation in general. He takes the medium seriously no matter what audience a show or movie it's trying to appeal to. Nothing is above criticism, and the target audience should never be an excuse for quality.
With that in mind, he has made bad takes before (i.e. the U.S. Healthcare System), and this is no exception. While I think it's important to capture the authenticity of the time period, a director has a right to use whatever color pallet/art style they see fit. And the situations Mr. Enter described as "unrealistic" (referring to the overbearing mother) actually happened to the director in real life. In other words: "personal experience".
As for the "anime style" being "too fringe" for the time period, anime had started taking a foothold, at least in North America, in the late 80's/early 90's. Films and shows like _Pokemon_ , _Sailor Moon_ , _Princess Mononoke_ , _Akira_ , and _Spirited Away_ really made an impact on pop culture, and the medium never stopped growing from then on. Even if anime was *NEVER* popular in that time period, again...it's the director's choice to pick whatever art style they see fit. And Domee Shi, being of Asian descent, was probably a huge anime fan growing up and wanted to incorporate that in the story.
The whole 9/11 thing, while tragic and undeniably impactful, wasn't the sole focus of the story. And some things take time for a tragedy to really take affect. Either the event didn't really affect Domee Shi all that much personally (at least at that point in time when she was a teenager in 2002), or the concept of puberty was a little more prevalent/timeless by comparison. Once again, again...the story is from her point-of-view; "personal experience". And a person's perspective is usually subjective (at least in a creative narrative sense).
I still enjoy watching Mr. Enter's content, but even I can acknowledge when he messes up from time to time.
Yeah, I think it’s obvious, but kids kinda struggle with empathy. Especially with European/American kids and the events in Ukraine. You see a bunch of them joking about it because they’ve never experienced the horrors of war. A lot of them don’t know how to empathize properly, I’ve mostly understood it through people’s war diaries, and a lot of teens don’t seek that stuff out, whether it’s because they don’t care or because it’s too much for them to process.
I’d imagine it was the same thing with 9/11. Especially in Canada, where it didn’t happen, and where most people probably didn’t actually see footage of the towers getting hit. And they’re middle schoolers too, who are known for being empaths (sarcasm). I just can’t imagine how a Canadian middle schooler would even comprehend a tragic event that happened in another country. Like if you walked up to a Canadian middle schooler, or any middle schooler for that matter, and asked them what their complex and nuanced thoughts on 9/11 were you’d probably be deemed insane by the general public, and for good reason. I just fail to see how any functional person who knows how small the average middle schooler’s world is, could possibly even bring up 9/11. It really is baffling.
Same here.
his take on health care as correct
What tf is this post. You lost me with the moral waffling
To add on to the anime bit, he is aware that *Toonami* existed in the 2000's, right? I don't know if Canada had Toonami or something similar to it, but to say that anime wasn't relevant in the West during the early 2000's is, uh...false. Sure it wasn't as mainstream as it is nowadays, but even still.
Toy Story is an amazing series, but it's kind of held back by the fact that the _plastic_ toys never once talk about the abundance of microplastics accumulating in the environment.
i'm not a fan of the movie, but i'll gladly defend it against that dumdum.

This dude literally just made a fool of himself. It's just that some people decided to start jumping on this hate bandwagon because they think it's “cool”. 💀
I used to watch Mr. Enter during my late-teen years and genuinely enjoyed his content. Looking back at it, he was an awfully angry individual, too angry over certain tropes in animation. It's hard to watch now.
The last time I watched him, he was reviewing an episode of Sabrina: The Teenage Witch. He got so mad he went into a fury-filled rant when one of the characters said that the high school years are the best years of your life. Sure, that's not true for many of us, but that wasn't worth the anger he put into it.
I also don't like how he judges entire shows by watching one episode.
Seeing what he said about Turning Red, he sure has gone further downhill.

I originally got the wrong idea when I heard the 9/11 thing.
Turning red has a lot of representation, and some of it is subtle. Like the secretary guard and a few other characters being Muslim.

so according to the ~mysterious~ Mr. Enter, because i was born in 2001 (post 9/11) i must now remind others of said tragedy, so "obligatory 9/11 mention" i guess.
But seriously Mr.Enter is a downer, we don't need to be reminded of 9/11 constantly, yes it happened and it changed the world a lot, but in real life people still picked themselves up and got on with life.

Contrary to popular belief, there IS in fact an acknowledgment of the September 11th attacks in the film.

Not everything has to include a tragedy that isn’t related to the movie. If it isn’t related to 9/11, nor is it planning to acknowledge it because it’s not about 9/11, what is the use of making this point if it isn’t obligated to talk about it in the first place? The movie is set in Canada, Toronto and the year is in 2002. Any movie that takes place during or after 9/11 isn’t obligated to speak about it if the film isn’t related to it at all. Again, it’s not obligated to. It doesn’t have to focus on it. I wish many understood this, because there isn’t a connection. At least I don’t see the connection. Come on, it’s about a young Chinese Canadian girl who deals with cultural expectations and her power to turn into a red panda because of her emotions. Why would it be about 9/11 which takes place in America, New York City, where it isn’t related to the plot at all? Must I add that it’s a PIXAR MOVIE??
I just know that Enter is gonna go full Joker soon. He may not kill someone, but still. All it takes is one bad day or one bad person.
Especially with his nit-pick about the phones, cameras and the other 2000’s things in the movie, even though Polaroid went bankrupt people could still have them beforehand that still work.
I mean when I traveled to Florida for the summer in 2019, my phone was acting up with signal. My dad had the crazy idea of unboxing the phones we used back in 2006, with the built in keypad and everything. And it still worked! I could even watch UA-cam videos made today on it and saw the old text features, except it fell out of my pocket at Publix and broke later on.
Also, I still have my old VCR from when I grew up in the 2000s, and I *still* watch movies on it to this day, especially after I fixed the pinch roller.
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster That is pure nostalgia vibes. Wish I still had my VCR and Disney movies on VHS 😩
I grew up using a VCR too! Also, my mum has a really old camcorder which still works and displays videos just fine.
9/11 had zero cultural impact for westerns beyond those who have soldiers in their family, the damaged parts of New York, and the few Muslims who got harassed shortly afterwards, but those are not even sub-cultures. The only cultural impact was the continuing trends of Islamophobia and anti-theistic New Atheism, but 9/11 was a drop in the bucket factor for those trends, which were mostly impact in the online early and mid 2010s.
Considering he got backlash for his takes over the pandemic, yet he never closed those comments. Plus, he complaints about brigading are dumb because they boost him algorithmically which could make up for his lost subs. Him compiling about the back lash on Twitter only dug his grave and ironic since he would "idk care" but precedes to make Twitter posts.
Ya Canadian here 911 didn't have that much of an impact here in Canada in general even if it was a valid critism
I was born in 01 so I can't say much but like, whenever it does come up people just talk about how shocking it was to see it on the news at the time. That's it. I might actually ask my parents how Canada was pre and post 9/11 out of curiosity because I can't imagine it having that much of an impact on their lives.
@@unoriginal_name4576 I bet, in which the only impact would be a drop-in-the bucket factor for islamophobia but a minor change in a trend that is way less of an issue than in the US.
I remember watching it happen on TV as a kid. But even in NYC where I lived people stopped talking about it after a couple of months.
The only impact it had on my family was that they were scared of going on planes for that year.
@@NEVETSGILBERT1233 It wouldn't because it didnt happen there. Its why the Confederate Civil War and WW2 are not taught in Canada either. I mean how do Americans seriously think that the world just moves in lockstep with the US?
I remember seeing a comment on a video about the failure of Growing Around that said “I’m convinced that Enter has set his standards so high, that he doesn’t even know what makes animation good anymore.” That perfectly replicates this review
I also want to point out that the entire movie is set in toronto canada and as someone who lives in canada I can say that we were not too paranoid or affected too much to panic by the events of 9/11. It was definitely a tragedy that affected the whole world but terrorism was never a large impact on Canadians culture and a mother walking in a school yard would never warrant a police tackle but more so a simple interrogation. I was always more afraid of a fire or a fight over a terrorist attack.
Well if people that don't like Turning Red are using 9/11 as a talking point for a movie about puberty/growing up and it also being a family friendly movie then they are really running out of excuses.....I totally unsubscribed from that dudes channel after when I heard that because it was so ridiculous....Personally I loved the film and thought it was one of the best P.I.X.A.R film in year's
U write P.I.X.A.R and not PIXAR?
@@janfiloute_the_noob4045 That's how they like it 😂
In 2002, the UK was going through a foot-and-mouth disease crisis, and Canada has a tangential connection to the UK due to the Commonwealth. The fact it was never mentioned in the movie ruined my immersion. Mei should have washed her hands in every scene and refused to eat beef due to fear of the illness.
This is deadass how ridiculous the 9/11 logic is 💀
oh god theres theres a second plane
Mr. enter has standards that are way too high. This is one reason why I thankfully stopped watching his videos.
He also said that 2000's cartoons sucked or that it was the worst time for them but he didn't really explain why.
@@josephrowe849 , yeah I know and I disagree with him. The 2000’s is actually a pretty good era for cartoons despite some flaws and the cartoons from that era are much better than most cartoons today.
2000's had the OG Teen Titans, ATLA, Invader Zim, the Proud Family, and Danny Phantom, so imo that era was fine. I'm sure there were bad shows too but bad apples come out of every decade.
@@josephrowe849 2000s cartoons are good for the time. If he said that 2000s are the worst time for cartoons, why does Mr. Enter make a review of a Fairly Oddparents episode?
@@poweroffriendship2.0 IDK but he should've explained why he didn't think the 2000's were a good time for animation even though we had crappy cartoons in the 90's and even today. There's always some good and bad animations in every generation.
The biggest mistake of Mr Enter was that Turning Red was set in fucking Toronto, Canada not Toronto, New York, United States lol
The movie itself was great honestly, even though I am a man some of the friend group moments resonated with me, this guy just outright speaks against PIXAR fully and is causing more problems for them and it is really at this point just bullying...
Sure 9/11 was an important historical event, but like, when exactly did the location change from TORONTO CANADA to FRICKING NEW YORK...
Never much?
PIXAR is making it's own universe so it is not historically accurate like at all? They can make references to them, but it literally is a movie about a non historically accurate movie, this guy failed the movie review.
The grade I have given Mr. Enter: F-
(Take it from someone who has taken digital literacy, speech, and movie critics :])
I don't think he realizes this, but even if people were actually angry at him, has he figured that maybe some people are sick of this movie getting shit on for no reason? This movie has been criticized for everything - from witchcraft to satanism to promoting sex work??? - and personally I'm sick to death of people hiding their obvious racism and sexism to make bullshit claims about the film. There's things to critique about the film of course but that's definitely not it.
I feel that way. This movie got so much shit from absolutely nothing but it just existing, due to conservative backlash and excessive nitpicking, despite most nonpolitically motivated reviewers liking it.
@@GeteMachine It's not "absolutely nothing/politically motivated" to objective to 13 year old [as in U N D E R A G E] children twerking being portrayed as acceptable [do not even try to disagree with me on this, unless you want to out yourself as a degenerate. Don't agree with basic fact? Too bad, so sad]. Not to mention such stellar dialogue as "My Panda, My Choice" [that line is completely unacceptable in a kid's movie, full stop. And don't give me that "adult references" or "more mature topics" bullcrap, either ; comparing turning into a panda to the topic of PRO CHOICE VS PRO LIFE, as in A B O R T I O N, is officially crossing the line]. That's not even mentioning the whole "period allegory" stuff that's in the movie, like with the scene with the main characters mother about pads. While I can understand talking and discussing such a topic with female children so as to assure or calm them for when it happens to them, having it be done as an allegory like this with the whole panda thing is really bothersome. Why can't we just discuss these things with our children ourselves, instead of relying on a cartoon movie to relay this information? On that note, the whole part about her using her panda form to fund seeing her boy band is really questionable and definitely gives off a "prostitution/selling yourself" vibe. And just in case you try and say this is "overanalyzing", don't ; this movie already clearly associated the panda transformation with puberty/periods, so what are we supposed to read from a main character using that ability as a monetary transaction? These are really important real world topics that should be strictly off limits for children until at least 13-14 in age, and this movie is clearly directed at that audience [i.e., children up to the ages 10-12], NOT teenagers age 13 to 17-18. We should not be trying to relay these topics through cutesy kids movies ; we should be DISCUSSING them with our kids, as parents.
If you refuse to accept any sort of criticism of the movie's themes or questionable messaging because it's somehow "nitpicking", however, the movie itself is a by the numbers coming of age story, and is mundane as all hell. It's mediocre, bordering on outright low tier garbage. And while this is more of a personal opinion, for me, it doesn't strike a good balance in the cartoony animation. By which I mean, the facial expressions, which are rather obnoxious. Like I said, personal opinion, but I HATE it when cartoons use the "lolgoofy faces", it just really annoys me. Feels like they're dangling keys in kid's faces. The animation also reminds me of a Grubhub advertisement, which is never a good thing for any piece of media [this point may seem like nitpicking to you, but this style of animation to appeal to kids is really getting on my nerves, and I'm sticking to my guns on this].
Bottom line, this movie is a obnoxious piece of background noise at best, and at worst, it's really gross and questionable. I'm so sick and tired of people pretending criticism is unwarranted just because "it's Pixar they do no wrong". Like, I thought people were starting to be just a little bit more critical of Pixar in recent years, but then this comes around, and now everyone is blindly praising them again. Coco was being rightfully blasted for stealing from the ideas of Book of Life, but now suddenly everything is hunky dory?
thank you, literally no reason to be so angry abt turning red, the movie is fun and i personally enjoyed it, i would’ve never imagined the stupid discourse it produced
@@thehonorablereverendaddiso1943 🤓
@@funghoul693 You did not read a single word that I wrote, because if you did, you would have actually realized you are wrong. Just because you "personally enjoyed" (your words, not mine) this movie, does not make the discourse "stupid", and saying that shows you have no critical thinking skills whatsoever.
I've never actually seen this movie, but it seems like a movie a lot of people are mixed on. Actually, I was introduced to it by Mr. Enter's review and I actually found it immensely funny seeing the storm to brew after people picked up on the 9/11 comment he made. The hardest I've laughed in months.
They could've had the girls watch a popular Canadian cartoon like Ed Edd n Eddy to get a idea to make money. Or have Tyler and other kid feud over the PS2 and the original Xbox while Mei is stuck with a gamecube.
"stuck with a Gamecube" thats a funny way to say got the best of the three nah but seriously it's better then the og xbox other after me can debate whether they prefer the GameCube or ps2. Also hay canadian here ontarian to be exact and I'll say mr enters review is probably the worse I seen cause even if you want to put the whole 911 thing into account which mind you has nothing to do with the movie and shouldn't be focused on 911 wasn't as big a deal over here as in America someone who actually grew up in that part of the world at that time should know
Even that would have made more sense, because those are things that kids actually care about.
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster Only guys at the time cared about the console wars. Girls were reading manga at the time.
Hey GameCube was best because it had the best Sonic Games. Also all those are copyrighted
@@GeteMachine Dude that's a stereotype
Why would a coming-of-age story about a girl would turns into a humongous red panda set in CANADA mention or be about 9/11? Not everything has to be about politics. Besides its set in 2002, I'm sure things would have calmed down by now.
Events going into the 21st century of real life dont exist in the Pixar timeline. Plus this is an originally story being told.
The moment I saw "the eternal words of Rick Sanchez", I had to pause the video and give off the loudest groan
I didn't like it that much but like. I'm also not a kid? Not that adults can't enjoy this movie, or that cartoons are only for kids. But this is the sort of movie I would have liked if I'd watched it 10 years ago...when I was a young girl lol. And like mr enter I am also a big fan of children's media but when it's bad or cringey I just move on. Unless the message is inherently harmful to kids. It isn't a big deal, at all.
Children's media can still be reviewed and critiqued but I've seen so many people get SO irrationally upset and angry in their reviews of media made for kids, and it seems that is all he does. He needs to stop purposely watching content he knows will make him angry and probably take a break from youtube. I haven't watched him in years and he is still acting the same. Like bro you're a 30 y/o man why are you getting mad about how unrealistic you think a mom openly bringing pads to her daughter at school is. It's not worth the energy and time.
"he needs to stop watching content that will purposefully make him angry" I'm sorry what? Sometimes it's freaking funny to watch people get mad at content. That's why AVGN exists. While I agree that him ignoring critique and getting mad at the littlest inacuracies is stupid, I gotta admit the man is funny. And it'd be boring if he talked about things he liked only.
@@dragonempress8367 that's obviously not what I meant, have you seen Mr. Enters content? It seems like doing nothing but watch children's cartoons that he knows are going to anger him is actually affected his mental health. I never said 'no one should ever watch media that makes them angry'.
Yeah, I feel like some people just can't handle the fact they're not the target audience anymore and hate on everything aimed at children. Kid's movies should absolutely respect their audience, but some grown adults really need to lower their standards a bit. Kids deserve comfy escapism too.
*Mr. Enter: "get annoyed because movie ignored the 9/11"*
*Me: Who cares? This wasn't movie's issue, bruh. The movie wasn't even showing to take place in America but in Canada, so...*
I never understood why ppl keep saying the stuff Ming does is unrealistic. IT'S A CARTOON!! Tons of cartoons have overbearing parents who are super exaggerated for either comedic effect or to illustrate how super overbearing they are.
I agree that including it would make the movie a little more interesting for adults, but considering what the movie is it wasn't needed.And besides, how would they include it without out it becoming distracting?
Newspaper? Not really focus on it, but have a newspaper in thr background.
To even do a topic like that, the entire movie would have to focus on it or it would be accused of shoehorning it. Let alone it likely not going to be marketable because Disney or people would find it inherently offensive to not portray it in acertain way, desdpite how dated that expectation of its retrospect would be in the present. Like paranoid islamaphobia wouldn't be justified, it would have to be shown from their perspective to be fair in present day. Considering the movie was just about millenial childhoods, it seems pretentious that he would bring up those red herrings.
Honestly i just assumed the 9/11 complaints were just people meme-ing... I had no idea that was his actual complaint
A bit late but: re the 9/11 thing: Enter's even wrong then. Mei's mum isn't a random adult, she's the parent of one of the kids who goes to the school - even if she doesn't make a habit of this, and come on, she cleary does - the staff'll know her from parents evenings and other such things.
How would 911 effect these characters, not really much. They’re in another country and her life is centered around her friends and boys. If 911 was mentioned in this it would feel weird and out of place. This movie was based off of the directors childhood if my memory serves me right.
"I pity those of you who live your life on this platform." Like yourself, Enter?
Let's address the real elephant in the room: the Cinderella movie. why is it not in black and white??? Why doesn't the prince have a slave accompanying him at all times, serving as a stool for example? also there was little to no representation of famines, plagues, disease and poverty on display in the movie, doesn't make a lot of sense imo, but Twitter and the Tik Tok generation will obviously disagree 🙄🙄🙄😮💨😮💨😮💨🤥🤥🤥😓😓🥸
@MetaphMIDI Mitchells vs The Machines needs to address George Floyd in some way or else it is completely ignorant of the year it is set in
Whenever I see a Pixar film, I’m always disappointed about the lack of 9/11
I was just thinking about Robin Hood as a giant tapestry, and then you said it.
I had a fit!
"She would not have just been confronted by the school guard, she would have been tackled by the police."
This is asinine for several reasons
1) This is Canada. Not the United States. Heck, the idea that police were waiting to jump on mysterious adults approaching school is... itself kind of weird.
2) Ming was probably well known. Trust me - even if it was August-September or whenever the film takes place, she would have been WELL KNOWN. (Especially since Mei is in 7th-8th grade. Assuming this goes grades 6-8? Yeah, 100% the faculty would know Ming by appearance because "Oh no. Not Her..."
3) This is Canada. The police aren't as jumpy towards asian people in 2002.
4) This. Is. CANADA!!!!!
You can't assume everything functioned like the US, especially your very part of the US. Because if I had been able to direct a period piece like this, and based it off of my own experience(s) during 2002, you'd probably consider it to be unrealistic as well - even though I live in the US, specifically Colorado, people weren't that paranoid - in fact several adults were able to walk not just up to the school but right INTO the school unattended. No cops. They'd only call the ocps if they were seen trying to break into the school.
Oh and in 2002, yeah, people watched Sailor Moon and InuYasha.
The next Pixar Movie should talk about the Columbine Shooting
It better mension the Ukraine War or its inaccurate.
I stg, I genuinely hope a movie does something like this in the future JUST to spite people like you.
Or their new film can be set in 2005 where everyone lives in a flooded neighborhood down in good ol' New Orleans! You know, for kids!
I love how adult white men are watching a movie about a 13 year old Asian girl going though puberty and then wondering why they didn’t relate
Nooooo…really?! 😱
Also it’s Canada and this movie has nothing to do with 911
By Mr enter logic, E.T should've been filmed like those blurry UFO videos
That movie _kind of_ exists? Earth to Echo is basically found footage E.T, except the alien is a robot.
If you watch that video about the making of the movie , the director talks about how she made it early 2000’s because that’s when she grew up and she wanted to base it off her child hood
I didnt even see the old phones, I had no idea this took place in 2002 lol!
There no guarantee it is in the same universe as ours, 9/11 happend in the US not Canada, so impact on its people wouldn't as big directly like here, it's probably a footnote there. Example Lockbie UK, or Jonestown why would you put a 9/11 in this movie anyway at the time when movies and comics were editing stories, movies posters and books covers that took place in NY
So dude is mad that a move about a Canadian teenager getting her period in 2002 doesn't have 9/11 references.
Like no wonder I unsubcribe to him a long time ago.
CinemaSins and its consequences has been a disaster for movie critique.
Worst part is that Mr enter compares this to the real world, its a FICTIONAL world INSPIRED by real life, maybe (and hear me out here) FICTION DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THE EXACT SAME AS REAL LIFE????? We are literally talking about a world where HUMANS THAT TURN INTO GIANT, TALKING, RED PANDAS.
"in the eternal words of Rick Sanchez" has the same energy as "in a Petersonian sense"
I can't believe this guy. I never knew he was like this. I watched two of his videos one on the Television parents cliches and The Loud House.
Honestly, for Mr. Enter, this wasn’t too bad. He’s acted way more erratic in the past. I’m surprised this didn’t blow over in a day.
@@pezdispenser8397 it probably would've blown over if he hadn't made that long Twitter thread bringing up his other weird opinions lmao.
Nice video! I like the new ideas, and I agree, wtf was he thinking.
"Like the good ol' days after 9/11!" - Sundowner - Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
I think people forget that this movie takes place in Toronto witch is in Canada
Why would a movie that takes place in Canada mention 9/11 when 9/11 was an event that happened in the US
It was a reference to Nokia the Finnish company. It's accurate, because text were sent in T9 English. Anime always had niche audiences, but Anime was primarily mainstream or first became a household form of entertainment as of the early 2000s. Eventhough there were terrorists attacks, girls still went through puberty. Just like the their grandmothers did during the Pearl Harbor attacks. They liked swing and early animation in film. So, no matter what happens around the world; you'll still go through puberty.
