Lucy's desire was revenge so you could argue the bully thing is consistent. She wished for revenge, the island gave her revenge by delivering her people she wanted revenge on.

A broad, non-incident-specific fantasy like that would also explain why she didn't wish that the fire had never occurred. Of course, if blanket fantasies were allowed, why didn't she wish away everything bad that ever happened to her (not that this wouldn't have carried its own unforeseen consequences)?

Considering they're making get out, happy death day, the invisible man, ect, each for less than ten million, I'm shocked. Like dollar for dollar, you can get either "get out" or two hallmark movies.

I'm so glad you're actually honest about the quality of a lot of horror releases. As a huge horror fan, sometimes I feel like expressing my real opinion is less valued in the community than just liking the same things everyone likes. I appreciate your critique!
Maybe Lucy's one wish was vengeance on all of those who wronged her, and in order for it to accomplish this wish to her satisfaction it made her aware of who these people were and how they wronged her, so technically she may not have even remembered her childhood bully... As much, but in order for her to truly understand and gain from this wish she's shown how each of these people altered her life's course for the worse.

The only way I see for Lucy's fantasy makes sense its that she desires revenge on all the people that, in her mind, hurt her, that way she gets her bully and the people indirectly involved in the fire. What doesn't make sense its how the island knew who those people were.
OH! That’s why Lucy hale ends up dealing with her old bully, and being genuinely surprised about it... what you said about Michael rooker? How the island twists EVERYTHING ... so even though she planned the whole thing out... she probably assumed since that was what she wanted by bringing them there and getting her revenge... that the island wouldn’t key in to her next kind of revenge wish. I was confused by that too bc I was like why did she pretend all that alone... but if she didn’t expect it then she would be lost and going along . Even though that’s still 2 things for her instead of 1, but just a thought lol

found your channel recently and honestly its hard to stop watching, your content is genuinely very enjoyable. i'm also happy that you post more often than i thought (unlike some other great youtubers *i'm looking at you eddy burback* ) that without counting the twitch channel. the fact that you seem to like making this content is even cooler!
Man, i was not expecting listening to someone rant about movies to be so entertaining. I dont know, you're just so charismatic and theres something in your wording and tone of voice and expressions/gestures that really captured my attention. I'm gonna start binging like, all of your videos now.
The rewrite would be absurdly easy. Make him a longtime boyfriend or fiance of Lucy Hale, first of all. Start out with them all winning the contest and do have the sort of "host" be more ambiguous as to how real he is. Let all the fantasies play out and go wrong, and Lucy seems to be at each one, trying to help but failing miserably. Up until the girl who accidentally started the fire who is a little more clever, maybe even a bit of a survivalist. She could even get out of something easily if Lucy just does one simple thing but Lucy won't lift a finger for some reason. And then maybe she laughs maniacally and is like "don't you get it? This is my wish!" Exposition exposition... Turns out Lucy had discovered the island on her own because it was more like a legend and she was looking for anything to bring her boyfriend back but instead the island showed her she really wanted REVENGE. So now the last one standing has to struggle to escape on her own and Lucy is doing all that she can to prevent it, but somehow the last girl prevails and reaches the room where the boyfriend was and helps him out. Somehow Lucy got separated but she jumpscare appears after the other two got outside and she's sobbing because he's there and alive like she really wanted. But as soon as she goes to hold him he starts to burn, because he was never real, and Lucy burns with him. If you want a moral it can be like the final girl got the wish because it was selfless while all the others were selfish. Final girl leaves the island and tries to warn away everyone she can, but no one believes her of course. Like. It's a really obvious fix?
This reminds me of an obscure crossover fanfic on wattpad that crosses over two completely different universes that are in different time periods and are completely different genres, and none of the characters are the same relative age.

i was so mad to hear who was making this and starring in it because they came up with an interesting idea and from the first trailer you knew it was gonna be bad. Cant wait to see invisible man though and see you video about it, if you make one. Love hearing you opinion on movies.
"And maybe that's the key, catching it at home, on the comfort of your couch and not in a theater." Little did you know, that only a couple weeks later...
It feels like most horror/thriller movies get so caught up in having twists, that they really shoot themselves in the foot. I mean, an island where you get to live out your fantasy, but then everyone starts slowly realising that the fantasies turn dark somehow/have serious real world consequences would be a perfectly good story on its own. It doesn't need a hundred twists and revelations
This was the last movie I saw in theaters pre-pandemic. If only i'd known....
I literally got an ad for the movie during this video.
Love your videos, you're so funny!!
New to channel. Great video, definitely look forward to hearing more from you 👌
This doesn't have anything to do with anything but that melodica cover of the jurassic park theme song you used for 2 seconds in the intro is probably my favorite KZread video ever.
There was a Star Trek Original Series episode with that premise too. It was a mystery.
I did like the line about Lucy Hale only getting coffee with him ONCE. The film didn't take itself too seriously, while in itself acting like it was taking things seriously. It's a strange film but I was entertained throughout the whole thing, and will never watch it again.
We watched this at my sibling retreat last year. We had an excellent time laughing our way through it.
You should do a follow up review of the original Fantasy Island tv movie/pilot that started the series.
"The Lucy Hale Cinematic Universe" that gave me a chuckle
literally i secretly want the zombie apocalypse to happen, if i was on this island it would literally be dead island
Was this the same studio that made that Ghost Ship movie? Vibe seems so similar.
Amanda, When your first take on Fantasy Island was not totally negative I was waiting to hear more (I didn't think it was totally horrible either). Interested in your opinion on The Invisible Man.
I was going to watch this in theaters but the timing didn't work out for that night. After watching some trailers and this video I can confidently say I have absolutely no idea what is going on in the movie

Blumhouse is a brilliant concept, though. It's like Troma that doesn't mind being a little more corporate. Personally, I think the few gems are worth keeping this machine in operation.
Now we need Mystery Science Theater to post an episode riffing to this
I have to think it was a particular movies that caused that reaction to Blumhouse, when i think of them I think of like on par horror movies
You have really funny mannerisms. I started listening to this video in the background then had to give it my full attention so I could catch them.
the trailer made me want to see this movie and then I got busy and didn't go to the theaters for awhile and now the theaters are closed
The vengeance over everything makes sense because the fantasy could've been to punish everyone involved in her heartache and the bully would've been involved because she feels bad about herself which causes her to latch onto the guy she only talked to once.
Television belongs to its time. Its wrong to pluck shows from the past, and toss them at audiences. Coming in 2022, Mary Tyler Moore! won't work. Ms. Moore passed in 2017 btw.

I guess that Hollywood is really targeting Baby-Boomers, since the very youngest people who watched the MYMS when it was on the air, would be about 52 (that's assuming that they were about 5 years old, during its last season). Which make sense since there are about twice as many Baby Boomers as Gen Xers, and they have more free time on their hands, and are more likely to watch TV, than either Gen Xers OR Gen Yers.

I think fantasy island could absolutely work today, I mean look at the success of black mirror (which is kinda like fantasy island but with technological fantasies)
Been a while since I watched this movie at the cinema, and all I remember is just wishing that somehow lucy hale survived and you could see her in the distance watching as the plane took off.
Not gonna lie I unfortunately did see this movie and watching/listening to Amanda thirsting over Lucy Hale is so much more entertaining 😂
I really thought this movie started off decently strong using the original's show's premise to good effect as a horror set up, but then that "Twist" just undid all of that. I think it could have been passable without that.
How long has that Tsunomon been there?
What does she mean at 1:44 when she says “nabbed in retcon from no television show of the same name”? Caught changing an original? But I thought it was based on a tv show called fantasy island? It would make more sense if she said “from a” instead of “from no” I’m confused 😓😅
I swear, ever since I read The Monkey's Paw, I have this lawyer-reviewing-a-contract mindset when it comes to wishing for shit. Now that I think about it, wouldn't that make a great protagonist for that kinda story - a lawyer who lost his/her/their parents to a Djinn because they made "poorly-worded" wishes, so the kid grows up to be a lawyer (forgetting everything about the Djinn by that point) when eventually the Djinn returns for some reason - maybe to collect the kid's soul (whatever, I'm spitballing here); at which point, the movie would kinda become a courtroom drama where the lawyer loopholes his way out of the deal or whataver. Sorry, I'm very tired lawl.
Blumhouse himself is actually kinda a genius he just gives money with minor budgets and earns it back by millions if they turn out good or he loses very little if its a flop
I absolutely love Blumhouses idea of giving cheaper budgets than normal Hollywood films but they have got to get better ideas lol
As a fan of amusement parks who has family in western New York, the title of this video makes me sad since Fantasy Island on Grand Island will almost certainly never reopen.
Wait when did this come out I never saw a trailer for this film and then all of a sudden there was a video about how bad it is and I went “ wait when was this a thing?”
One of my guilty movie pleasures is watching Blumhouse films. Don't care if they suck or they're good, and quite a few of them just blow, I know. Waiting for Blumhouse to just say fuck it and reveal that all of these movies are in the same universe or some kind of BCU.
So it's Wishmaster in an Island
I always enjoy you posts. Fantasy Island looks like the type of movie that I would enjoy. I was not planning on watching the movie until your post. Probably opposite of what you intended.
hahaha the harmonica jurassic park theme song xD
I have never seen this movie but just from the description it sounds like if they had just made the bully Lucy Hale’s friend that also bullies her then it would make sense that she’s on the island. Then if Lucy Hale’s character wanted to kill her/punish her because she set her up on a date with someone who died and Lucy Hale’s character in her grief stricken mind saw that as just another act of bullying by the friend. Then as the fantasies are playing out and hurting people she realizes that even though her friend is mean to her in some part for staying friends with her she kind of bullied herself and is in some part to blame for her own pain and therefore maybe not all of the blame shouldn’t be laid at the feet of that friend and with that decides to save the bully friend. Plot twist on plot twist the bully friend was the one actually having the fantasy and she wanted her friend that she bullies to grow a fucking spy and so her fantasy concocted this entire elaborate story tell force her friend to stand up for herself. That would have been fucking hilarious!🤯
The ending wasn't meant to set up a sequel I think? The movie is based on an old series about the island and this movie acts as a sort of prequel for that.
Isn’t Blum House the stupid Scott Coffin was/is using for the FNAF Movie
