I am glad at least the blonde preppy girl didnt turn into a bully or a backstabber "mean girl". Shes just annoying cause her and Kat are not on the same wave link of personalities. When I saw her I groaned cause I thought ok here we go, the popular preppy girls who make fun of the new kid and are bullies to them. But no, she is actually rather pleasant. Annoying, but not bad and does help in the end.

I agree plus she figured out what her parents were up to in fact you could say that the Kaxons are meant to be characters that are meant to show how American prisons function with how the people who own the prisons will usually use the money that they make to pleasure themselves rather than using it to maintain the prison itself and not even allowing inmates to have a chance of reformerty because they are essentially lose money when a prisoner is let out on parole so it would be rather fitting that they end up in one of their own prisons that they owned prior and those inmates they tortured pretty much got their revenge on them

So her coming to terms with them and befriending them would help her come to terms with her past. Also I feel like they didn’t need the Klaxons. If they wanted to make a statement on private prisons.

Also--sorry to play Devil's advocate here--but Sellick may be a director who works BETTER with a leash. With Coraline, he had people overseeing what he did and making decisions (I personally hated the "face lines" in W&W), and it was based on a novel he didn't write. So he had restraints, but was still able to be creative. On W&W...it's all Sellick, for better or for worse.

The thing i remember most about this movie is that we were watching it with friends, they were on thier second time watch and i had joined mid way through the watched, I asked what the general thoughts were and everyone shared this resentment of dissapointment, For me it was forgettable considering the most prime memory is the fact that i had people around while it was on

I hope this is not the end of this franchise. This has the potential to become something really good, it just needs to improve on the story. That Teddy is still a loose thread, so there's definitely a sequel to be made.

Yeah I was pretty disappointed in this one. The trailers made me think this would be a Harry Potter meets Beetlejuic meets Paranorman movie, with Wendal and Wild being like Katz mentors and forming a new family with her. Instead, the movie barely has Kat and when it does…..I kiiinda find her mean and just angry and unlikeable!!!!! (And the Villans kinda suck) Also this movie really didn’t earn a PG 13 rating, Coraline was far more scary! This one just says Hell Damn and Piss off alot. 🖤💀

When I first saw the trailer, I was really excited to watch the movie. From the stop motion, the actors, the director, and from what the story seemed to be about, I wanted to see this movie badly. Then when I actually saw it... the stop motion was still fantastic, but the story seemed very strange to me. And the climax was very rushed and preachy from what I remember. I was hoping for a new Coraline from the scariness and story telling, but I was kind of disappointed. Happy to have seen it once, but I doubt I'll ever watch it again.

Would love to see you get to the James and The Giant Peach sometime! I saw you comment about it on an old video. One of my favorites, and definitely creeped me out as a kid!

I think my biggest problem with the movie is the very first trailer, It made it out to look like a completely different movie than it actually was. Making it look more serious and horror esque despite the movie having more comedy than horror.

5:30 Was it also the moment gave Henry Selick PTSD after the Studio's interference with a previous movie that turn into MonkeyBone. You know the movie with Brendan Fraser? That is real by the way. MonkeyBone is an adaptation of a comic call *Dark Town by Kaja Blackley.* Selick wanted to make the comic into a stop motion movie but due Studio Interferences with the many changes, the movie becomes Monkey Bone. Like something passion transform into an abomination. There's only a picture of how Selick originality want it in stop motion with all the figures. Sadly I can't share the photo because the bots.

Enjoyed your post credits scene 😊

This movie couldn’t decide which story it wanted to tell

Know what this film actually makes me reminded of? The cgi animated film "9", which also had a very unique dark premise, beautiful animation, interesting lore, but not really a well paced plot or anything resembling extremely good clever humor or shocking twists to keep one interested. In short form, this story was perfect, and it held up even more so, because it lacked dialogue entirely, like Mad God did, and, it had a much smaller cast, telling just about the same gist of the story. The problem /potential of the cinematic version was, now you basically had to add more character archetypes and more plot points, but where does one stop? And if you have too much plot, then establishing key details or obvious travels from one setting to another, have to be cut for time sake- and in some mediums, like a short film, or a comic/graphic novel, or even a video game, these jumps into one new set after another, or infodumps, work fine, because the viewer absorbs this story very differently. But as a film, our brain pads out everything and thus, it gives "9" almost an effect like you are not watching a completed film, but more like a nearly finished rushed one, or, like one of those compulation videos of every cut scene from a videogame, with all the menus, gameplay and footage of boss battles removed. Wendell and Wild had kind of the same problem, but it stings worse because it has an even more complicated plot than 9 has, and just as many characters, and the plot unlike 9's is ironically both more cliched and far LESS so, so... unlike 9's story which is just your typical 'get macguffin, go on epic quest to bring macguffin to the place, save the world' tale, Wendell has you guessing and wondering and TRYING to piece together a mystery, with results that do not leave an emotional impact as much as they ought to, which is the main driving point of any mystery drama. If I cannot get emotional over the stakes in a mystery, then unravelling doesn't matter and the prizes rewarded to us feel cheap and lazy whenever we do solve them.

To be honest, considering some of the other stuff on Netflix, this movie is honestly a gift from heaven.

A bowl of maggots is a gift from heaven over the cow terds we usually have. My point is they should only be praised for doing better then the general average. Not better then their own cow terds.

Saw the trailer and got excited for it. Then I watched it and it felt completely loss and directionless on where to go with the story.

Finally got round to watching this last night. Been meaning to for ages and this video finally gave me the kick I needed. I agree with a lot of what you said. Some heavy rushing at the end. I basically forgot how Kat said goodbye to her parents until you showed me as there was so much going on. The art style I sort of liked. It was interesting how some of characters where modelled after their voice actors. But personally I don't think I like the design of characters mouths jutting out in weird ways, idk just looks odd, and the caricature inspired designs results with that a bit. One thing I thought was weird was how it took Wendell & Wild about half way in to meet Kat. So it kinda confused me how the film kept saying they're her demons when they barely interact with her. I think with all the plot being crammed in, it made me less and less interested, because none got enough time to breathe. As some of the comments I saw said, it would've worked so much better as a TV show. You could've had more mystery around the janitor and the nun, more of Kat adjusting to the school and using her powers. Yeah overall a little weak, but with some fun animation and colours as well as some good topics brought up. The non-reforming prisons and capitalist corporations were decent. I thought Rhaoul being trans was depicted well, it was firmly established that he is, but didn't harp on about it through the rest of the film. Great video as usual!

I definitely found the part where Kat chose to defeat her inner demon by not destroying it, but instead embrace it and let stay within her as somewhat endearing.

I legit believe Jordan Peele tainted what could have been an amazing Henry Selick StopMotion.

The animation was great but I found the main character kinda unlikable, to a point where even at the end I was rooting for the bad guys. That might just be me though idk

If Steve Reviews uploads it’s gonna be a good day

Wendell and Wilde did not follow the Pixar method of storytelling - "Coincidences to get characters into trouble are great; coincidences to get them out of it are cheating". That's why the resolution fell flat, it was a coincidence that all the characters were where they were at the end. The artist didn't purposely lead the giant demon to the roofs to see the picture he did, it just so happened that he was there where he was. Oh, and it so happened that all demons captured in the jars were his kids. I find it a shame, I really wanted to like this movie. I still love the look of this movie, just the story was really weak.

I think Steve is really gonna like "Nope". It feels like a Spielberg film to me for some reason.

Plus it would be more organic for Siobhan being Interested in Kat because she just want to be Kat's Friend. Or the Fact Kat saved Siobhan's life by pushing her away from the falling Brick. The Animation is great but the how the story is, it a meh for me. I wonder what the Original Book of Wendell and Wild is like. I wonder if it's different from the movie. Oh yeah Steve, You never mentioned Father Bests. He wants vengeance for the Klaxons killing him. And he died later. So that was pointless.

We can blame K and P for the convoluted writing. They are overrated hacks.

I liked it for the artistic animation, however the story had too much going on so I agree with that.

I love seeing that Steve made a new video

Those movies are fantastic yet really unpopular it makes me mad

I honestly forgot this stopmotion movie was even a thing.

I had a similar feeling watching this. I went in rather excited to see it, because I'm a sucker for stop motion animation, and the trailer was extremely intriguing. But yeah, afterwards I just felt very underwhelmed. I don't know what it was, but I barely remembered anything that happened in the movie and almost forgot it existed. It just didn't leave that big of an impact on me.

Thank you for adding another reason to why jay birds are my favorite birds.

honestly the movie had so much and so little going on at the same time. It felt like the writers had too many ideas and instead of picking one or two, they tried to implement every idea but couldn't fully develop any of them within the timeframe of the movie. It's kinda sad since the animation is really good and the character designs were unique. It had alot of potential but the writing of a movie can make or break it

I'm kinda with you on this movie. As much as I enjoyed the work and talent put into this I was a little thrown off by the sudden conclusion and other part of this movie that weren't really needed. Like who they chose as the main villains and all these other subplots crammed into it. BTW, if you do another anime movie review could you review 2021's Belle.

Honestly I never heard or watched this movie but from hearing Steve’s point of view of how things would’ve worked for the movie sounds appealing

I actually forgot this movie existed until now. I remember being excited for it when I saw the promo.

You would think that something so epic, so unique, that I would remember a single frame from this movie.

Oh man! I am so glad I wasn't the only one! This movie was so boring, and the main character so unlikable, I dropped 30 minutes in I couldn't last a single hour in this movie. And I was EXICITED FOR IT

Studio fire while they were making a movie where a fire is a big plot twist element. Coincidences are at the same time tragic and ironic

i waited for this review for so long!

The movie was beautiful but the story was really lacking and all over the place jumping from character to character if they had just focused on less characters it could have really been more coherent and worthwhile

I never felt the move was bad. Just too much ambition killed it off. And made it forgettable. I never watched it. Just because the animation is good. Doesn’t mean the story will be. And vice Versa with just because animation bad. Doesn’t mean story bad. If your gonna make a series. Focus more on writing than animating but still make the animation as good as possible. be it stop motion/ drawn etc… (I’m only talking about animation. And no I haven’t made an animation series yet. So my advice may not be that good.)

I actually forgot this movie existed until I saw this pop into my feed, if that tells you my thoughts on the movie.

Yeah i felt odd that I wasn't enjoying this film despite others saying how good it is and it being made by talented people whom I like. I felt so underwhelm and cheated somehow. Like I fully understand the social commentary they were making and I do think it's important to talk about but yeah it was one too many things. Could've been an offhanded remark that is on the growing list of inhumane actions that helps the daughter see just how terrible her parents are. This could've been better with either less ideas to suit the length or a mini series type length to give the ideas room to breath

Love your work man! Do across the spider verse next to wash away the dissapointment!😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤

Nice to see you smile once and a while. Looking good.

I wish that we can one day see Seleck’s original vision for “The Shadow King” in full 🙏

If you hate Raid Shadow Legends as much as I do then click the timestamp it skips the ad 3:41

that jaybird clip at the end, cute

5:44 A free pass to bully you?? How could we resist?

I couldn't say how feasible this would be, considering the costs and nature of creating series, but I feel as though this movie could've benefited from being a series instead. It would allow for far more character and plot development than a movie allows in addition to not feeling anywhere near as rushed. Series can also allow for more varied plots, whereas in a movie so much going on can end up feeling overwhelming and unfocused very easily. I'd say that the biggest flaws come down to there not really being enough time, this would rectify that, if of course done correctly.

Another great video. Well done.

Would you consider review of Arcane?

my dad and I watched this film, it may have been long but we liked it alot. Definitely would like to see Key and Peele provide the new voices for Pain and Panic in the new Hercules, their characters in this reminded me alot of them!

It's like making a burger but everyone wants to add something they like to it, each taste good on their own but they piled it way too high and in trying to smash it down to take a bite you lose all of the flavor underneath all the mess

If this had been a series, it would have been perfection.

11:03 “Demon King Bowser” Don’t you mean Ganondorf?

It felt like there was a comic book or something we should have read before the movie to make it all make sense.

Incredible how Raid Shadow Legends just doesnt even ask the youtubers to say stuff and has their own clip which talks for them

i love the comedy stevie uses

I want my 2 hours back that I spent watching this movie. I saw Luck today, and enjoyed it a lot more. Wendell and Wild was crazy, directionless, and had a message that was all over the place and cliche. Yesss, suree, save the city from evil industrialists, but... the girl just being OK with sending her parents to prison? And these two murdered a family for what, selling real estate? And we are supposed to root for the literal demons because they have daddy issues? And said evil demon dad is just... easily placated and leaves?

Also.... five actual ZOMBIES just meet up at a room... And their vote counts now... Sure the Zombies are here so we think their vote is legit. I.... What? ... That is such a weird move forward. How about... Screaming, running around in circles, grabbing a gun, and then STOP any votes or projects until WE FIGURED OUT WHAT THIS ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE IS ABOUT?!?!?! And then they get to move on with that bulldozing in what? ... Less than an hour? .... I... Also gotta love that the way to save the city at the end was by building a themepark and get the beer brewery back up and running... So.... To save the town from industrialization, we need to have industrialization...... Kay
