@@ashblossomandjoyoussprung.9917 Tbh I would count The Sorcerer's Apprentice as "Original" because the source material is like. A short film within a film with two characters.

Yes obviously, but i'll take it anyway.

I love how The Sorcerer didn't had a name back then but now everyone knows him as Yen Sid because of Kingdom Hearts.

The scene I could never forget about (and I learned to make peace with it) is when the protagonist shows her crush the Tesla coils and starts playing Secrets by OneRepublic for her using the sounds of the electricity. In retrospect that was kinda cool.

simple. they broke the first rule of urban fantasy genre: DON'T REVEAL TOO MUCH-- IF ANYTHING-- AT THE BEGINNING. The viewer is supposed to experience what the viewpoint protagonist is experiencing:a mysterious new world unfolding, piece by piece, in the middle of the mundane. in the Sorcerer's Apprentice, they literally revealed the ENTIRE PLOT AND BACKSTORY right in the first thirty seconds. As a voiceover. By Nicolas Cage.

Far from perfect and I can certainly understand people's misgivings or luke warmness towards the film but this movie is like comfort food to me. There's just something about it that makes me want to watch it while laying down on my couch during a rainy day or a day I'm sick. The visual effects alone make it enjoyable for me. I'm not a fan of stuff like Harry Potter so I guess that's why I appreciated the young adult lead. Also Nic Cage and Alfred Molina are really fun to watch.

This is the pinnacle of "Disney tries something and it didn't hit for whatever reason" to me. This is the first thing I'll always think of when people talk about Disney experimenting. Honestly, this really deserved more love. I loved it as a kid and still do now really. It's not a masterpiece of cinema but it still works. The worldbuilding/magic/etc. is incredibly fun and it's endlessly quotable for me. I will also say the three main leads (Balthazar, Dave, and Horvath) are played to perfection. Really every actor understood the assignment on this one. Absolutely underrated movie that's perfect for an easy, good, fun night.

The lightning cage scene with music has lived rent-free in my head since I first saw that movie. I never rewatched it, I don't think it would hold up to my scrutinous adult eyes, but it was a fun time for 10-year-old me.

Kind of funny how the word "philosopher" is associated with magic in much of the world, considering philosophy has been a very real, very non-magical occupation since classical times.

IMO, the Sorcerer's Apprentice was way better than a lot of the movies that came out that year. Movies like Clash of the Titans, Tron, and Alice Wonderland were popular simply because they were adaptations and already have notoriety. Whereas Sorcerer's Apprentice was novel, high quality, and creative. If it was made today, it would have been all the rage. Kind of like Constantine.

I remember watching it at the theater as a 13 year old, and back then I LOVED IT. My classmates and I left the room in awe, super hyped, feeling like we could be wizards too. I have to disagree for the most part cause I don't think this was a movie directed towards kids, instead it feels made for pre-teens/teens like me at the time of release. At that age I could not care less about the movie slowing down to show and develop the main character's love story with his crush, or that it sorta becomes his "training arc" for like 30 mins. That was actually the best part, and the one I most remember. The scene where they play Secrets by One Republic changed my brain chemistry forever. Watching it with our seasoned adult eyes changes the perspective and of course, makes you realise it has certain flaws. But I can assure you, it's a movie I hold dear to my heart cause my teen self ADORED the feeling after leaving the theatre that day.

My biggest thing is the super heavy connections to Arthurian legend and Merlin. The story is more interesting when it's just wizards in modern day

I don't think this movie is amazing but I also vastly prefer this style of animated film reboot than the straight-up remakes Disney is making now. If Disney needs every big-budget film to be attached to a pre-existing IP, I'd much rather have them be based on thinly-veiled original ideas that draw inspiration or that pay homage rather than scripts that regurgitate characters and plotlines that have already been done better. Pirates of the Caribbean succeeded in the first place because it felt more like "let's make a good modern pirate movie" instead of "let's make a movie based on this Disneyland ride", and yet merely being based on things is what defines so many modern Disney movies.

I love this movie. One of my favorite movies growing up and I will not apologize for it 😂

John Carter deserves to be a series. It's the book series that inspired both Dune and Star Wars. It is the original Sci Fi, well as sci fi as you can get in 1912. Mind controlling, False Gods, Gems that hold light, the name Sith itself, giant ship battles, desert planets. Star wars is more like this than Dune but that book series was the first time science fiction was mainstream and its fantasy elements and western elements inspired basically every story to come after it. Sad that it didn't get its fair shot as Star wars got and Dune is getting right now since it is really the original and should be mainstream again

I remember seeing this movie in theaters and really loving it! I still adore this movie as an adult!

So, Nick Cage had a half decent idea that Disney started pouring millions of dollars into before it was polished. They casted the wrong people, sucked at grabbing their target demographic, and released alongside way too many other movies. Sounds like pouring millions into something that very few people will have the extra money to see after seeing everything else is a terrible idea.

This analysis really makes it clear to me that a little restructuring could have improved the movie without major alterations. Doll goes missing, experienced sorcerers start training their apprentices, romance subplot gets in the way of training, doll gets found and act 2 is a big imaginative fight sequence, big bad gets released for the climax. Just moving act 2 to act 1 and combining acts 1 and 3 minus the climax and finale provides a much better structure for the story.

Another attempt by Disney to launch a Harry Potter/ Lord of the Rings film series was the Chronicles of Narnia. It started out well with the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe but took a noticeable dip with Prince Caspian. Should make a video about those films. Also, a production hell video of the Last Airbender would be a breath of fresh air if you ask me.

As a young teen this movie was fye loved to rewatch when it was on Disney

I've noticed that when the theory that moviegoers were just burnt out on a certain genre is floated as the cause for something's failure, there's pretty much never an example that's brought up that matches the quality of the films that kicked the genre into gear in the first place. If people were just tired of the genre but the movie was good anyway, you'd expect them to end up as cult classics. Instead, people still enjoy Harry Potter, while we've pretty much forgotten Percy Jackson, Sorcerer's Apprentice, etc.

It’s almost like those were the first movies in their respective franchises and no one would have known how massive they would end up being or something.

Who remembers the tesla coil scene?

Fun fact: "The Sorcerers Apprentice" or in German "Der Zauberlehring" originated from a ballad written by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

I remember watching it an thinking "Wow, with an concept this awesome, this should had been better". I thought the movie was OK, but was missing something, something a lot.

I actually loved The Sorcerer’s Apperience and I did see the effort there mostly in its acting and visual effects. But it is sad that we didn’t get an sequel due to the box office performance, of three things and I do agree with these factors - Overbudget, which if the story doesn’t match up with the budget, then maybe some problems with the budget unfortunately. - Hard to market: I did feel like there were like the Harry Potter vibes in it and that they are trying to make the next Harry Potter. Which unfortunately didn’t work out. - Tough box office: It went up against with two of my favorite films that is Inception and Descable Me in which they were more successful. Despicable Me not so sure at the time for me, but Inception for sure because of Christopher Nolan due to his successful film that is The Dark Knight at the time back in 2008. These are something I do agree with this video. Very well-said.

Disney did'nt invite the sorcerers aprentice. Its based on a realy famous german poem called der Zauberlehrling (the sorcerers aprentice) from Goethe.

The movie is actually fairly decent. Honestly the only real problem is the music, it made the movie hard to watch.

This was one of my favorite childhood movies. It got reran on Disney XD all the time.

Im not talking from a sense of nostalgia when i say, that movies now dont have the same vibe and story telling as movies like these. Theres very few that hit that "fantasy exploration" guilty pleasure of mine.

I LO-O-O-VED THIS MOVIE AND WOULD HAVE LOVED TO SEE MORE!!!!!

I loved this movie as a teen! I remember watching this dozens of times with the DVD at home.

I loved this movie as a kid, i had completely forgotten about it. Thanks for bringing back memories

The sorcerers apprentice has always had a special place for me because my dad and I always loved it and it was my first movie I ever owned when I got it for Christmas. Love this movie

Film budgets include marketing. Marketing is something that the PRODUCTION team has to account for in their budget, on every film. So if you hear a film has a 200 million dollar budget, that is supposed to cover every dime from the room for the auditions to the placement of the dvds on the shelves.

excited to see this one! this was kind of a guilty pleasure movie for my brother and i. we wanted to make our own at-home remake of it at one point and remembered the trailer so well that when i started college i was excited to post the clip about being a "normal college kid", lol. looking back the enjoyment is even more ironic now, but at least they were trying to do something different.

I have been looking for the name of the sorcerers apprentice for years! Thank you so much!

I agree with so many of your points! Your point about Act 2 was particularly interesting. My big issue with it was Dave's development - for the title character of the film, I don't think his emotional journey gets as much focus as it should, and unfortunately that might be due to Nic Cage's influence, since Balthazar is the one who really wants to stop Horvath, not Dave. I felt the leap from doubt to confidence was a little too quick, and relied too much on the romance. I would also add that I'm not sure Sorcerer's Apprentice was meant to strictly be a kids film, or that it needed a child star to appeal to a young audience. Look at National Treasure, Nic Cage's other big collaborations with Disney: Those are all adult stars, but since it's a family film and Ben Gates is such a driving character, kids still want to know what happens (and it helps that Ben, like Dave, also gets introduced as a child in the opening scene). But splitting the protagonist role between Dave and Balthazar for this film I think weakened it.

I didn't know what to make of this film when i saw the initial trailers. I thought the Jay Baruchel character was supposed to be Mickey in human form or something. lol I thought it was more connected to the Fantasia segment than it ended up being. When i learned it was just loosely inspired by it, i lost interest in ever seeing it.

That's a silly take, though. Because what matters is the idea. And it's not like making a movie about a clumsy apprentice of a sorcerer is a bad idea. Ideas come exactly in such ways.

I remember when this movie was coming out, seeing the ads, feeling very hyped. I mean The Nicolas Cage is doing magic? sign me up. I was at Kolkata when it came out and was reading its review on the newspaper. It got 2 and a half stars while another movie with weird shaped Buildings on the poster named Inception got 4 stars. Rather than disappointed, i was in disbelief. Then i bought its dvd, along with inception, cause why not and watched it. It was good, enjoyable but the 'wow' factor was missing. Afterwards, i watched inception, with the thought of how good could it be to get 4 stars and boy oh boy, a Christopher Nolan fan was born that day. Its still a precious memory as i'm thankful to it for introducing me to Inception.

this movie had the hardest drop of One Republic - Secret song in the movie!

Also, have you ever seen the draft script for thus film floating around the internet? balthazar had a very different backstory and they included more elements from Fantasia in the climax (plus they made Abigail Williams a real threat instead of just a glorified cameo, something I felt was a wasted opportunity for all The Crucible lovers out there).

Loved this movie

My partner and I saw this because we were both fans of the Dresden Files book series- Nicolas Cage was an executive producer on the TV adaptation. While it's certainly not a Dresden Files movie, there are enough (whether accidental or deliberate) easter eggs or possible similarities that we had a fun time joking about it, and I still think fondly of this movie.

There are tons of aspects of the film industry that are currently broken. However, my number one, is expense. From marketing budgets, to salaries, to production costs, it's all become cost prohibitive.

My experience with this movie was my parents took me to see it I actually fell asleep during the movie. The worst part was later on I asked my dad what happened in the last half and he told me to guess... the real kicker? I guessed correctly because of how generic the story was lol

I loved almost all of the movies listed at the beginning (except for Lone Ranger). John Carter, Tomorrowland, Sorcerer’s Apprentice, Prince of Persia…I rewatch these movies regularly. In my experience, a lot of “flops” end up being great movies. Edge of Tomorrow and The Man from Uncle, for example. Incredible movies that did horribly at the box office and they deserved a lot better recognition.

I LOVED this movie growng up. I would re watch it all the time. The Tesla coil scene and the dragon scene have stuck with me to this day. It was such a creative film!! Glad to know im not the only one who remembers it fondly.

Idc I loved this movie as a kid and when rewatching it as an adult it held up pretty well.

This channel is going to blow up

I adored this movie as a kid and honestly the concept still holds up for me.

Bro the magic system in Sorcerer’s apprentice was awesome ngl. This is one of those examples I would use for my world building.

I’m loving your Disney’s “Next big thing.” The TomorrowLand video was sad to watch because I actually thought it was cool as was a was young. But I have no recollection of this film. Probably because of both Toy Story 3 and Despicable Me at the time. I’ll definitely check it out now thanks to your video. Check up the great work.

Strong disagree with your take on the leads. Jay Baruchel was a fantastic awkward teen / young adult casting choice that made me (an awkward teen who loved science) feel validated when compared to the standard fare of protagonists in similar films. Cage's quirky humor and no-nonsense teaching methods felt like the role was literally written for him (which, apparently, it was), and he was my favorite part of the movie by far.

I love this series you are doing. Watched the Tomorrowland one a couple days ago. I loved Tomorrowland as a movie, but I have actually never heard of the sorcerers apprentice before 😅.

I still really like this movie to this day. It was one of those movies I dug out of the $5 bin at Walmart to take home for movie night. (Although I had no clue it was in reference to Fantasia)

One of my favourite memory in childhood.. me my sister and mom actually went for some bad movie that I don’t even remember it’s name, then we decided to get to another theatre and it was one of my favourites movie as a child since

I loved this movie as a kid, and, while looking back on it, I can definitely see the narrative flaws, and I’ve always thought Becky was way too shallow a character for her role in the story (the part where they have her do one semi-significant thing in the finale to beat the sexism allegations has always stuck out to me) I think overall the acting and the effects are still good enough to make for a really fun watch. The character work especially seems just surprisingly solid to me still. It’s kind of a weird movie, but I think it’ll always have a place in my heart.

I don't agree with "kids have to see themselves in the characters on screen." There are fantastic series such as Batman The Animated Series where there are no child main characters. Kids movies can be patronizing even to kids.

Love this series, great work! Hilariously, I remember seeing each of these in theaters (except Tomorrowland, actually still haven’t seen it!).

Onerepublic’s “Secrets” in this film was a banger!!!

Watched that one in free tv for the first time and LOVED it. Watched it every time it came back into free tv and once we got it on dvd it was always a movie for long rides. Haven't watched it in a while tho. Thx for the reminder!

I could relate to that dude so fckn much tho, I loved the humor, I loved the action, the magic, the love story not soo much but the acting and nicolas cage as well. This movie and national treasures really burned that name into my brain.

I watched this on a whim one day in like 2015 and I still think it's just so off the wall in what it does, I really enjoy it.

I love these videos, keep it up king

I keep getting a hunch that Cage's deal with the devil was reimbursed a long time ago and Satan won't renew their contract.

sorcerer's apprentice was great tho, just rewatched it recently and it held up. The soundtrack Secrets is an absolute banger.

I really liked the mop scene. I memorized the poem of the same name as the movie by Goethe as a kid and liked how they brought it to life. The poem tells the same story that happens in that scene.

Bro I absolutely LOVED this movie as a kid!

I was about to make a comment that this protoganist in the movie somehow reminds me of hiccup in how to train your dragon and would be a perfect fit if there is any live action movie for it. Turns out he's the voice actor if hiccup. Lol. He captures that awkwardness perfectly even in this movie.

This was one of my favorite disney films!! I loved the "secrets" scene with the tesla coils.

I remember liking the Movie alot when I was younger, but I also barely remember anything about it nowadays basically forgot it´s existence until seeing this video.

I was 12 when this came out and it is still one of my favorite movies. I liked how simple it was and I really related to the nerdy main character.
