Spinel was the best written character in the SU franchise. I don't get how they got such amazing writing for a character and concept like that in the movie, but botched it so dam much in the follow up series after it. I'd also say peridot is the other best written character, though hers was based on long term development while spinel was based on a single movie. It isn't like they lacked the ability to have well written characters, so I dunno what happened with SU future..
@@plutoniummin yeah i hate how all of her Character development in the movie get thrown into the Trash can in the show for the sake of Steven turning into a Monster
Well her being her old annoying playful self was her healing she wasn’t gonna act like how she acted in the movie forever you were supposed to see how annoying she was to understand why she was abandoned despite how cruel it was. She still has her movie appearance because she hasn’t fully healed yet
Spinel got screwed over by the writers and I hate that was how her character arc ended before Steven Universe ended. Steven Universe: Future honestly disgusts me with how much it disrespects the characters.
you say that, but cartoon network was the one who cancelled the show, asked for a movie, then proceeded to ask for just one more season which the original series could have benefitted from.
@@LittleSlimeGoblin That's fair but the SU crew dedicated far too much time in last season to Filler that didnt do anyhting for the show. Like instead of talking about Steven or Connie or Bismuth or Lars or any of the other characters who could have gotten more development in the last season they just didnt.
no no no we only got to see spinel in the movie she was not in future we r all sad to see her go but luckly her charicter was not scewd over in any way * WINK WINK *
I doubt Yellow Diamond was laughing AT Spinel's trauma. Yellow Diamond herself went through thousands of years of grief over Pink Diamond. If anything, she was laughing because she understands where she's coming from.
Yeah I was she continued to be a villain or pretended to be good heck being good wasted a character she has no knowledge about earths pop culture at all heck what we expected of her never comes true heck I really wanted her to be the worm
Another thing that I love about Spinel: As you may know each character has an instrument to represent them whenever they're on screen (like, for example, you can hear chiptune sounds for most of Steven's scenes.) And Rose/Pink's instrument is violin. And guess what Spinel's instrument is? Violin. Except, listening to her scenes you can hear that it's reversed. Spinel's background music is literally mocking Pink by reversing her violin sounds.
While Steven was kinda dumb during Spinel's spiral scene, I think it's important to take into account he lost his powers and was miserable. His gem gives him energy and fusing with Greg took a lot out of him. Spinel was a second priority for him after she shut off the injector, and he was probably not thinking as clearly as he normally would. But still you'd think he'd try to be a little careful around her, lol.
It works because, Greg and Steven fusing, makes greg, disappear, he no longer exists, so pearl doesn’t serve anyone, basically, what happened with Greg, was rose in this situation
@@EduardoHerrera-fr6bd with the lack of explanation over fusion, some people believe it’s incest to some extent. And with the major age difference, it’s still creepy. BTW why did they sexualize steg ?
10:10 the reason it works is because Greg disapeared much like rose did, they needed something to remind pearl of her past. For this reason spinel alsp starts crying, she saw steven, her best friend dissapear much like pink did This is really not well explained but i hope i could atleast explain this a bit
@@flynndemeeuw Someone made a fan comic about killing Greg during that scene.... I was like, "Welp. I knew the fandom would do something like this, considering the circumstances...."
And Fusion is like the equivalent of sex in SU, so... Oh my god, they make fun of the TLH and GF fandoms for making fanmade incest and making two people -18 having it, but no one says a thing about how Sugar made both of those things *_Official._*
I mean, It *is* a *really* good movie, besides the gems acting like they suck at fighting just to make a plot and tell some backstory, I loved it. I absolutely agree with you on the Let Us Adore you opinion, especially since the way they sing match their personality. Spinel is a character plenty of people relate to, and the crew, especially Sarah Stiles, did a fantastic job. For Steven Universe Future, you make plenty of valid points, and I think the main idea was to have a type of moral, that you can let out your feelings(i'm bad at explaining things so don't judge me pls ;-;). I really like your opinion. If you don't like this comment, I'll take it down. Thank you for reading !
@@roboknightt04 I mean, I suppose, they don't exactly have muscle memory so I suppose their reflexes depend on memory and whatever built instinct they have. It's just a lil weird to think they're rusty after having he experience of a thousands-year long war.
I agree with you, Steven universe the movie was suppose to be a great ending of SU... Until SUF showed up and messed all the characters and SPINEL... And spinel is the best character I know, she really has good character, voice, appearance, and everything on the movie!! And peridot too, she has a good redemption arc, she helped steven with the cluster, the knowledge about the cluster and the warnings about the cluster.... And about Spinel's injector that can kill all life on earth.... SPINEL IS BEST ANTAGONIST AND CHARACTER OF THE WHOLE SU WORLD AND PERIDOT IS THE BEST CLOD! And I'm thinking it for 1 year too Also love the songs it has meanings on it, and I really understand everything (except some others.... I don't remember what I hate) Soooo I really love to see steven universe the movie over and over again! So that's all.... :/
@@vale3242 Yeah, I agree. Let it Go is a big example of this, it was alright the first time I watched but then it got way too overplayed, and many people hated it in the end. I think it should have been left as OST in my opinion, the instrumentals are beautiful and already awesome without the lyrics.
This movie came out the day I started my first day in high school, and it was stellar. As you said, sure it's flawed and not perfect, but there's something truly beautiful and masterful about this film. The characters, the voices, the animation. Just remove the Steg scene and it would be a 10/10 for me. It's funny to me how before the release, everyone wanted Spinel to be killed off because the diamonds were redeemed, but there's something special about how real she is. Her trauma, her pain, it's all *real*. It's a shame they wasted Sarah Stiles's talent on Future... (can we just pretend Future is a fanfic AU and that the movie is the true finale please? I really hope Future is the one that's forgotten instead of this beautiful movie, because it literally took a sh*t on mental health and Spinel as a character, and that is honestly the worst-) Anyway, great video. You explained your points and the plot of the movie really well, and why it is superior to future in every way lol.
I like SUF for a lot of reasons but i feel like _this_ is the season where filler/introducing new characters is not the way to go at all. That should be where you work hard on your already existing characters and make every episode more character arc driven. I know that filler does have its way of contributing to character development, but I don't think that's what future needed at all. It needed more Spinel, more Connie, more Steven/Crystal Gem intervention, etc. More of Sadie and Lars. Also I wish we had more of the BismithxPearl action, it's a good ship that deserved more screentime/development. However I do feel for the crewniverse, since they were cut on the amount of time they needed to make things longer and better drawn out. And I do commend them on how Steven's mental state was handled in a lot of ways (I feel quite a personal connection to Future!Steven myself). tldr: SUF was good in a lot of ways, but also flawed. if the crewniverse was able to make it more of a full length season it could have tied loose ends a lot better.
Spinel was a literal masterpiece now she’s just a drug addicted gem with trauma that is just gone like that and the worst thing is she was only in like 2 episodes and one movie and yeah that’s it...
I didn't realize how deep this was till you explained it...I love you!😍 On a real note,I love things that hit hard and actually have of meaning to them...You made me realize that this movie was one of those things and...I thank you for that!You just made a new friend!
If anything, you're right. Spinel was the perfect representation and abandonment issues and PTSD. Sarah Stiles does a good job, and should've gotten a raise for it.
I don't know why everyone hates Sadie's singing; she's in an amateur garage band. I've always loved her character arc and I'm glad we got a song from her in the movie (it's become one of my favorite house cleaning songs lol)
I love the fact that there’s someone else who actually cares about the Movie’s 1 year anniversary. Thank God, I thought I was the only one for a few weeks.
Damn u are an amazing video editor lmao the way that you have the instrumentals in the background and then line up with the lyrics after you finish talking was just perfect
What i noticed in the scene when i saw steg, i noticed that the guitars that steven and greg were playing sumhow fused aswell?? But ngl thats a pretty good detail
I was meh about the movie at first, but after watching you talk about it and explain about it, it's incredible. This should not have as many dislikes as it does, you have just gained a new subscriber from this video
May I just say how you presented this review of the movie is Astounding, mainly the perfect audio transition between the instrumental and the original version for each song. It was done very well and gave this review a sense of personality and maturity about the topic, also your points were delivered in great detail and I can't wait to see what you create next!
personally i think spinel's songs are the best the have such a good run there not to short and not to long the lyrics are catchy and add to the plot development and most have an epic scene backing them and spinel is just an amazing character in general i love her personality and her ability is just different
*Before future in the Steven universe studio* Creator: so! We need to carry on spinel’s story since she’s so popular. Any ideas? Person: okay so how about we show the affects from her trauma and how she will never fully recover but that’s okay because change is good and she can help Steven and stuff Creator: *nodding* yes yes that’s good..... anyone else have any ideas? Other person: let’s make her annoying as f*ck and throw all her development out the window! Creator:.......................... BRILLIANT!!! Let’s do it! Person: sigh....... well now I can say bye to my social life
Fun fact: at the start of the movie when Steven is doing the announcement to the galaxy, it shows people watching it all over space. If you watch closely, you can see spinels feet that have been in that position for so long that the grass has grown around her feet. Later on you see her singing her second song about pink diamond in her garden and it shows her standing there watching the announcement with her feet in the grass with vines around her feet. This is just a little something I noticed after watching the movie for the 5th time 🤩🤣
I think the reason Steg worked on Pearl is because her missing piece was losing someone she dedicated her entire life to, so when she was reset to be Greg's Pearl, losing him was as impactful as losing Rose
I still cannot BELIEVE the Steven Universe movie is a year old already. Is it me...? Or does it feel like 7 months since I watched it on vacation....? Anyway, it is definitely my favorite American movie of 2019, with Klaus and Missing Link as a close second and third. While it does have it's flaws, which is mostly writing and Steg, it still has amazing songs, some great animation, vibrant colors, and one of the most interesting villains I have seen in awhile. Spinel is awesome, one of the best characters in the show, and there are very few things I actually don't like about her, like how she decided to destroy the earth for no reason and that her backstory is the start of the demonization of Pink Diamond. But other than that, I love a lot about her, like her songs, her symbolism, her design, how cartoony she is, and mainly, her voice acting. Sarah Stiles is the perfect VA for Spinel, not only does she act a lot like her, but she gives her a lot of life, and actually makes her sound quite depressed. Not to mention, Other Friends is a great song and pretty much the best villain song I have heard since Friends on the Other Side :D My biggest problem with the movie was that it only added one thing to the whole SU story, and that was Pink's first mistake, only to be added and demonetized even more in Future. Now, I can see why she could abandon Spinel as lots of kids these days abandon their dolls a lot, but why have her stuck in a game of hide and seek for thousands of years when she could have probably take her over to Earth? That's my major issue with the movie, the events of it could have been all avoided if Pink never forgot about Spinel. Still better than the other three Diamonds though when it comes to being genocidal, though still quite an awful person. My favorite song in the movie was Who We Are, it was beautiful and quite relatable to me. I'd probably sing it this year, as 2020 is a very disastrous year and I am quite depressed during it. Like how my house almost got crushed by a tree during a tornado, and how I didn't know how to feel during the first Smash reveal of this year... but those are stories for another day. Anyway, I still think Who We Are is an awesome song, and really underrated. Seeing it get more love makes me really happy. Also to mention two other underrated favorites of mine, Finale and Isn't It Love. Isn't It Love is a very beautiful song, and the visuals look like something out of the Yellow Submarine, which is a gorgeous movie itself. Finale may sound exactly like Happily Ever After with some different lyrics, but it is a very nostalgic song that makes me cry. I break up in tears whenever I hear the final lyrics of it. It is my favorite finale song of any musical ever, and I love it. The SU movie was a very enjoyable experience for me, other than Steg (though his song was awesome as always). I will always prefer the movie's version of Teen Steven over the one in Future. He was quite likable other than dismissing Spinel for picking up the injector, he should have been more careful there after seeing her break up. Honestly, I think I will pretend that this movie was the finale to the entire series itself. Other than some good songs and the opening, I don't like Future, it's a HORRIBLE representation of PTSD, and it mistreats and breaks a lot of the characters. Especially Spinel, they make her so annoying and dislikable... while it may be emotional to a lot of people who have been with the series for a long time to finally come to a close, I didn't get why so many people were crying over the end of Future, at least the second last episode, I absolutely HATED that. Still, I love the SU movie a lot, and until I watch Weathering With Your or the Star Twinkle Precure movie, it and Klaus will be my favorite 2019 movies, at least in America :)))
The reason why future is the way it is is because Steven Universe was supposed to get a 6th season to stretch the diamond arc. But instead CN gave them future.
The story and animation is amazing and stuff but we shouldn't forget one thing: The voice actor of Spinel totally nailed it I mean omg she is a talent, who did every letter like more than imaginabily possible perfect in every aspect of her existence in this movie. Also the role of spinel is soo hard, being on one side a cute and lovely playmate and on the other side a traumatized victim who tries to reconnect after rejection and lonelyness but can't because of trust issues, i mean did this voice actor experienced the same thing or why and how could she perform these deep feelings sooo realistic? You really could cry every time she cries, she hits so hard and it's doesn't feel like a cartoon kids show anymore. I love it
I was about to cry during the shots looking at the whole town being when Steven was singing. We spent some much time in that town. Every inch of it. Now it's destroyed and has changes. I don't know why I almost cried, but I someone can explain in the comments, right?
I wish that in SUF Spinel would have actually helped Steven with his problems because she has gone through trauma. She has been traumatized. She has been affected by the things that have happened to her, so seeing her just laugh at Steven's trauma and take it has some big joke really frustrates me. The writers really ruined the whole point of the movie in SUF
Honestly their are a lot of info from previous sessions and scenes to back up the reasons the writer decided to make Greg and Steven fuse, and more. When they fuse and sing independent song thing, it’s to tell pearl that she is independent but they are together. When they fuse they are together but they are also independent. Yes I agree that’s SO WEIRD FOR THEM TO FUSE THE FRICK. But it worked. Also there is a lot of back up info for SU F :))))))) btw ty Hydroshot for the vid it’s rlly good
10:15 your not the only one I was watching the movie with my sister and when that happend I was like OH HEY WERE OUT OF KOOL AID GIVE ME A SEC cause I couldn’t with that scene
The movie for sure had some of the best songs in the whole franchise like happily ever after, independent together, drift away, and other friends. God, the production was perfect.
Spinel was the best written character in the SU franchise. I don't get how they got such amazing writing for a character and concept like that in the movie, but botched it so dam much in the follow up series after it.

Yes!! I loved Spinel in the movie, but hated her in SU future. She was so great in the movie but garbage in the show.

I hate you
It's 11/10
@Ac _Warrior seriously I was joking
I will just delete
For me it's 8/10 reason for 2 points out is
Steg being quite sexual
Spinel being deafeated and redeemed
I didn't realize how deep this was till you explained it...I love you!😍
On a real note,I love things that hit hard and actually have of meaning to them...You made me realize that this movie was one of those things and...I thank you for that!You just made a new friend!
Yeah ever since that movie i could not stop singing the songs cant get out of my head
If anything, you're right. Spinel was the perfect representation and abandonment issues and PTSD. Sarah Stiles does a good job, and should've gotten a raise for it.
*Almost least satisfying. HE GOT THE THERAPY HE DESERVED.
She had so much potential but the writers didn't utilise it
I don't know why everyone hates Sadie's singing; she's in an amateur garage band. I've always loved her character arc and I'm glad we got a song from her in the movie (it's become one of my favorite house cleaning songs lol)
I prefer spinel to stay evil instead like it would be much better
I never wanted her to be redeemed
@@Poke_Miracle_Owl_Universe same here
I love the fact that there’s someone else who actually cares about the Movie’s 1 year anniversary. Thank God, I thought I was the only one for a few weeks.
But with the song with amethyst, how is steven tap dancing with flip flops
“And then one of the most powerful songs start to play” ad play me: “ThIs IsNt A sOnG”
Back again on the 2-year anniversary
The way how the music builded up as u spoke near the end was amazing which is why i really,really want more videossss
Damn u are an amazing video editor lmao the way that you have the instrumentals in the background and then line up with the lyrics after you finish talking was just perfect
2019: Here we are in the future, and it’s bright! 2020: *here we are in the future, and it’s wrong.*
Just a second ago we were singing this song...
MeltingMellons and now there gone because of her...
Wait.. 1year already... It still feel like it was just released a month ago
7:50 you insaulted one of my favorite songs in the movie :(
Im still empty
the SU Movie was my peak
I fell in love with Spinel so hard I put a picture of her on my hug pillow
Same haha
Steven universe: 40 years later
I still think about Spinel 😔 great video!
Steven Universe in 2013:🤩
Steven Universe in 2020: 💀
Andy:I don't want to play with you anymore
Spinel: *I don't wanna play anymore*
What i noticed in the scene when i saw steg, i noticed that the guitars that steven and greg were playing sumhow fused aswell?? But ngl thats a pretty good detail
I was meh about the movie at first, but after watching you talk about it and explain about it, it's incredible. This should not have as many dislikes as it does, you have just gained a new subscriber from this video
13:37 *I LOVE THIS STEVEN LINE I WANT TO HEAR A 1 HOUR VERSION OF IT*
Watching your review brought me to tears. Amazing video! 😭
3 years later this is still the best cartoon network film of all time
I actually listened to the movies music album this morning :D
The fuse works since pearl says I will serve you as long as you exsist. So steven and Greg fuse so Greg doesnt exsist, then the song happens
May I just say how you presented this review of the movie is Astounding, mainly the perfect audio transition between the instrumental and the original version for each song. It was done very well and gave this review a sense of personality and maturity about the topic, also your points were delivered in great detail and I can't wait to see what you create next!
Oh spinel of the garden, what is your what is your wisdom?
Gems are basically stands
can we notice the fact that this guy hearts half of the comments??
+1 respect
♥️
Watching this review almost made me cry, this video was just too good.
personally i think spinel's songs are the best the have such a good run there not to short and not to long the lyrics are catchy and add to the plot development and most have an epic scene backing them and spinel is just an amazing character in general i love her personality and her ability is just different
everybody gangsta until the weird reverse noises happen
*Before future in the Steven universe studio*
Creator: so! We need to carry on spinel’s story since she’s so popular. Any ideas?
Person: okay
so how about we show the affects from her trauma and how she will never fully recover but that’s okay because change is good and she can help Steven and stuff
Creator: *nodding* yes yes that’s good..... anyone else have any ideas?
Other person: let’s make her annoying as f*ck and throw all her development out the window!
Creator:..........................
BRILLIANT!!! Let’s do it!
Person: sigh....... well now I can say bye to my social life
I’m seeing this video almost a whole year after this was put out. Let me just tell you that this video is REALLY good.
Fun fact: at the start of the movie when Steven is doing the announcement to the galaxy, it shows people watching it all over space. If you watch closely, you can see spinels feet that have been in that position for so long that the grass has grown around her feet. Later on you see her singing her second song about pink diamond in her garden and it shows her standing there watching the announcement with her feet in the grass with vines around her feet. This is just a little something I noticed after watching the movie for the 5th time 🤩🤣
I’m back after four months to say that although it’s going to be only 2 years old this year, I feel super nostalgic
How do you save the world? I recycle,and I plant trees in dead parts of land.
*i spit on the floor.dont worry,it heals.*
Ok can we appreciate how legit the intro of the video is? Like it’s really good man no cap ✨
I think the reason Steg worked on Pearl is because her missing piece was losing someone she dedicated her entire life to, so when she was reset to be Greg's Pearl, losing him was as impactful as losing Rose
Wow just wow it’s been a year your right about the movie thou that thang is epic
I still cannot BELIEVE the Steven Universe movie is a year old already.
Is it me...? Or does it feel like 7 months since I watched it on vacation....?
Anyway, it is definitely my favorite American movie of 2019, with Klaus and Missing Link as a close second and third. While it does have it's flaws, which is mostly writing and Steg, it still has amazing songs, some great animation, vibrant colors, and one of the most interesting villains I have seen in awhile. Spinel is awesome, one of the best characters in the show, and there are very few things I actually don't like about her, like how she decided to destroy the earth for no reason and that her backstory is the start of the demonization of Pink Diamond. But other than that, I love a lot about her, like her songs, her symbolism, her design, how cartoony she is, and mainly, her voice acting. Sarah Stiles is the perfect VA for Spinel, not only does she act a lot like her, but she gives her a lot of life, and actually makes her sound quite depressed. Not to mention, Other Friends is a great song and pretty much the best villain song I have heard since Friends on the Other Side :D
My biggest problem with the movie was that it only added one thing to the whole SU story, and that was Pink's first mistake, only to be added and demonetized even more in Future. Now, I can see why she could abandon Spinel as lots of kids these days abandon their dolls a lot, but why have her stuck in a game of hide and seek for thousands of years when she could have probably take her over to Earth? That's my major issue with the movie, the events of it could have been all avoided if Pink never forgot about Spinel. Still better than the other three Diamonds though when it comes to being genocidal, though still quite an awful person.
My favorite song in the movie was Who We Are, it was beautiful and quite relatable to me. I'd probably sing it this year, as 2020 is a very disastrous year and I am quite depressed during it. Like how my house almost got crushed by a tree during a tornado, and how I didn't know how to feel during the first Smash reveal of this year... but those are stories for another day. Anyway, I still think Who We Are is an awesome song, and really underrated. Seeing it get more love makes me really happy. Also to mention two other underrated favorites of mine, Finale and Isn't It Love. Isn't It Love is a very beautiful song, and the visuals look like something out of the Yellow Submarine, which is a gorgeous movie itself. Finale may sound exactly like Happily Ever After with some different lyrics, but it is a very nostalgic song that makes me cry. I break up in tears whenever I hear the final lyrics of it. It is my favorite finale song of any musical ever, and I love it.
The SU movie was a very enjoyable experience for me, other than Steg (though his song was awesome as always). I will always prefer the movie's version of Teen Steven over the one in Future. He was quite likable other than dismissing Spinel for picking up the injector, he should have been more careful there after seeing her break up. Honestly, I think I will pretend that this movie was the finale to the entire series itself. Other than some good songs and the opening, I don't like Future, it's a HORRIBLE representation of PTSD, and it mistreats and breaks a lot of the characters. Especially Spinel, they make her so annoying and dislikable... while it may be emotional to a lot of people who have been with the series for a long time to finally come to a close, I didn't get why so many people were crying over the end of Future, at least the second last episode, I absolutely HATED that. Still, I love the SU movie a lot, and until I watch Weathering With Your or the Star Twinkle Precure movie, it and Klaus will be my favorite 2019 movies, at least in America :)))
The Movie was really good
It was
I swear spinel rose/pink and peridot are my fav characters
Rose and spin are just so human
The reason why future is the way it is is because Steven Universe was supposed to get a 6th season to stretch the diamond arc. But instead CN gave them future.
12:22 when boss music starts playing
The story and animation is amazing and stuff but we shouldn't forget one thing:
The voice actor of Spinel totally nailed it I mean omg she is a talent, who did every letter like more than imaginabily possible perfect in every aspect of her existence in this movie. Also the role of spinel is soo hard, being on one side a cute and lovely playmate and on the other side a traumatized victim who tries to reconnect after rejection and lonelyness but can't because of trust issues, i mean did this voice actor experienced the same thing or why and how could she perform these deep feelings sooo realistic? You really could cry every time she cries, she hits so hard and it's doesn't feel like a cartoon kids show anymore. I love it
Imma pretend future is an alternate universe
I’ve already trained my mind to consider it non-canon
I think Steven Universe the show and movie is good. Steven Universe Future sucks.
Maybe it's one of Garnet's alternative future visions
I was about to cry during the shots looking at the whole town being when Steven was singing. We spent some much time in that town. Every inch of it. Now it's destroyed and has changes. I don't know why I almost cried, but I someone can explain in the comments, right?
I wish that in SUF Spinel would have actually helped Steven with his problems because she has gone through trauma. She has been traumatized. She has been affected by the things that have happened to her, so seeing her just laugh at Steven's trauma and take it has some big joke really frustrates me. The writers really ruined the whole point of the movie in SUF
“And then one of the most powerful songs in the series starts to play”

That doxxing himself thing is exactly what led to Bluebird.
Excuse me, *a year?*
Wtf bro time sure flies.
Honestly their are a lot of info from previous sessions and scenes to back up the reasons the writer decided to make Greg and Steven fuse, and more. When they fuse and sing independent song thing, it’s to tell pearl that she is independent but they are together. When they fuse they are together but they are also independent. Yes I agree that’s SO WEIRD FOR THEM TO FUSE THE FRICK. But it worked. Also there is a lot of back up info for SU F :))))))) btw ty Hydroshot for the vid it’s rlly good
Man, i really needed to hear that, thank you
STEVEN CAN FUSE WHIT HUMANS BECAUSE HE IS PART HUMAN PART GEM, THATS WAY STEVEN AND GREG CAN FUSE, STEVEN + GREG = STEG
YES, BUT WHY DOES HE LOOK LIKE A WALKING JOJO REFERENCE?
LaShofi83 :3 because ehmmm fandom
The writers were like: Rainbow 2 is the only known male fusion?
LETS CHANGE THAT.
@@rexythet.rexfromjpreadabou186 rainbow isn’t a boy. he’s genderless he just has he/him pronouns. all gems are genderless.
I just got to say, i love your personality. It makes your vids quite entertaining. I hope you get more views mate!
Did anyone noticed that the planet farthest from the garden looks like it's been kicked out in the shape of a heart

10:15 your not the only one
I was watching the movie with my sister and when that happend I was like OH HEY WERE OUT OF KOOL AID GIVE ME A SEC cause I couldn’t with that scene
Spinel: I don’t wanna play anymore....
Steven: Spinel.... this isn’t A GAME!!!
Spinel: It never *was* a game.
Okay, is no one going to talk about that intro though?! It's amazing!
Bro wtfffff this is so good
The movie for sure had some of the best songs in the whole franchise like happily ever after, independent together, drift away, and other friends. God, the production was perfect.
