Uma is one of the best Disney Channel villains ever. China Anne McClain nailed this role and carried the movie. And "What's My Name" is one of the catchiest villain songs. It's taken up permanent residence in my head.
The Actor who played Captain Hook's son "Harry" he dated "Mal" Dove Cameron IRL. His name in IRL is Thomas and he's accent is real, he's from Scotland.
Man, i wish we could've seen Cameron Boyce in a Broadway theater work. If he was this good in singing and dancing in the Descendants movie, imagine his power when he stars in a Broadway show. He could've been a Tony Award winning actor! God damn it, i miss him so much. His death at a young age always reminds me that any of us could go any moment no matter how old we are 😥
Actually they weren't. They dated shortly after filming. The actors themselves said they just had chemistry in most scenes that they had to cut from final production lol
I also think it fits them well, because Harry is Uma’s first mate. So, why wouldn’t he be tense with Mal, the daughter of the most evil villain of all.
The fact that Kenny Ortega was not only the director but also the choreographer for these huge musical dance numbers is freaking mindblowing. He was in his 60s when he choreographed the Descendants movies, this man's talent is beyond untouchable. He had a vision for what he wants, Disney let him do whatever he wants, and he did it brilliantly! I mean, the "W-I-C-K-E-D" part in "Ways To Be Wicked"? Pretty awesome moves
The fact that Ben doesn’t go beast and just screams is so funny 🤣🤣 when yall were hyped up thinking he was about to go beast i instantly burst out laughing 🤣🤣🤣because no he did all that just to jump in the water 🤣🤣
China Anne McClain carried this movie in her back. "What's My Name" had no any right being as good as it should be, easily one of my favourite songs in the Descendants trilogy What's my name? What's my name? (Uma) Say it louder......🎵🎵🎵🎵
Two incredible fun facts : 1) "Chillin' Like A Villain" was shot during a typhoon (for those of you who don’t really know what a typhoon is, it’s essentially the same as a hurricane or tropical cyclone, just by a different term because of regional differences). It was the last scene to be filmed 2) "It's Goin' Down" was heavily inspired by Hamilton and West Side Story
Chillin Like A Villain & What's My Name Were The BEST Songs That MADE This Film More Iconic Than The Original For Me. They Were ABSOLUTE BOPS When They Came Out & They Still Are To This Very Day. Such A Great Sequel
The reason why Sarah Jeffery ( Audrey ) isn't in this movie is because she was a series regular on a show at the time called "Shades Of Blue" where she was playing Jennifer Lopez's daughter.
4:58 they don´t miss being evil, they miss the freedom they had.... now it´s all about doing what is expected of you, and not what you feel you want to do... on the island, they were imprisoned, but inside that prison, they were free to do as they please...
Uma is one of the best Disney Channel Villains. Love her costume, her palette, her song and the fact that she’s played by China Anne Mclaine is just better!
You guys would get a kick out of the series Kenny Ortega did for Netflix, Julie and The Phantoms; he used several Descendants actors, but it's also unique cause it tackled more band-style music, with actors all actually playing their instruments^.^
You guys may have forgotten but magic doesn't work inside the barrier. That's why Mal can't change her hair magically once she entered, and it's also the reason Uma needs the wand. The wand is kind of like the ultimate magical artifact in this world, and it's the only thing that can perform magic inside the barrier, and Uma wants to use it to break the barrier down.
47:20 Also, there is a deleted scene right after that where Mal do a reprise of "If Only". I think it's important to mention it because it really shows Mal struggles with her new life. I'm so upset they cut it out, it's out on RU-vid if y'all want to watch it.
that’s so upsetting it would’ve been such a good callback to the old movie, not to mention at the time i was suprised they never reprised any of the songs from the first film. we get snippets of Chillin’ Like A Villan, but it’s just the intro to the song and only like once or twice in the movie.
Just some following points that should be noted: Ben's fixation on Mal's accurate eye color in the picture stems from a dream he had in the prequel book where her eyes glowed green. Additionally, the song playing when Mal first enters the salon is from the Descendants' Wicked World show. There is also a deleted scene featuring Mal singing a reprise version of "If Only," which, if included in the movie, would have had a significant impact.
dove cameron (mal) and thomas doherty (harry hook) we’re actually dating during this time! they dated for like 4 years so that’s why the chemistry between the two was so palpable!
Fun fact: Dove Cameron (Mal) and Thomas Doherty (Harry Hook); also Brenna Demaco (Jane) and Cameron Boyce (Carlos) were actually in a relationship during this movie and the third movie xD
Before you guys do Descendants 3, you should know to also react to the mini sequel to it Descendants 3 The Royal Wedding (only 25 minutes) as it wraps up the character stories of Mal and the others before Descendants 4. They need to know this.
Unrelated, but this is the first time I’ve ever felt like buying merch from a content creator ever, those look so cute and I just love how the purple looking 😭
I'm still waiting for you guys to react to other Disney Channel movies such as Teen Beach Movie (first and second one), Camp Rock (also first and second one), Lemonade Mouth (my favourite Disney Channel movie of all time), Starstruck, Good Luck Charlie It's Christmmas (if you watched the series), Phineas and Ferb Across The 2nd Dimension (if you watched the series too), Cloud 9, Princess Protection Program, Adventures In Babysitting, Jump In!, Zombies trilogy, and manu more. There are lots of material from those DCOM that you guys can make as your reaction 🤗
Lemonade Mouth is a MUST!! and camp rock needs to be covered as well so they get the references in hsmtmts s3 later on. also i feel like they'll really love the zombies franchise
I NEED LEMONADE MOUTH!! if they like this soundtrack i think they’ll really enjoy the music in lemonade mouth, not to mention bridget mendler is fantastic in it
Zombies 4 is being filmed right now, so as much as I’d love to see them react to that series, it’ll probably be best to hold off right now so they can marathon them leading right up to the release of the new one, like they’re doing with Descendants.
Another note to make is that in the books it states that even the villains killed off like Gaston are brought back to life to spend on the isle. Yall should really read the books. They are really good. You can even learn why Uma really hates Mal. And how the original four slowly became friends
Fun fact about Audrey not being in the 2 movie they kind of like explained that she went on a whole salon to get her hair done and also explain the whole plot of 2 of the movies XD
Since your reactions to these movies are going to be finished soon, you should react to Descendants: The Royal Wedding. It’s an animated special that not only serves as a follow up to Descendants 3 but it sets the stage for The Rise of Red (the new Descendants movie that comes out next week) so I suggest you guys check that out to be prepared for it. Also since you guys are reacting to High School Musical: The Musical: The Series I recommend you guys react to Camp Rock and Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam before you get to season 3 of that show because there’s some songs from the Camp Rock films that the cast sings because season 3 takes place during the summer and some of the characters go to a summer camp for the whole season so I suggest you guys to react to those before you start season 3.
*Evie and her boyfriend flirting* Tara : aw , what sweet friendship ^^ *Harry and Uma exchange two words* Tara : Oh they f*cking ! Power couple goaaals
Definitely make sure to watch the Rodgers and Hammerstein Cinderella movie adaptation (aka the Brandy and Whitney Houston Cinderella) and Brandy and the prince will be reprising their roles in the newest Descendants movie coming out. That movie will be loosely canon!!
I feel like you two would love Julie and The Phantoms, it did end only with one season, but has the fun music and choreo and was directed by Kenny Ortega aswell! Great storyline everyone was super upset when it didnt get renewed
Fun Fact: the actors that played Harry and Gil had a scene together that was cut during filming, which they had shared a kiss. Both actors had done so because that was also done by their characters inside of the novel/book version. But scene was cut, however, there's an image of it online that one of the two actors had posted.
Julie and the Phantoms is a series of a few chapters also produced, directed and choreographed by Kenny Ortega, it would be great if you could react to it after finishing the Descendants movies
@@VTTVpsycho and and also also they started out as enemies to -lovers- friends kinda cause mal and uma were besties and they had a tiff with evie until mal switched sides
17:52 but the thing is Ben always loved Mal for who she always was , like when creating their portrait Ben had Mal with her purple hair green glowing eyes and purple dress like he fell in love with the girl from the isle and not the one like audrey
I watched this movie with my son a few years ago when he was still into Disney - he's a teen now and too cool for it - and we used to sing What's My Name all the time! We watched the first and second movies a few times. I think we watched the third movie together too but he was a bit less into is since he had gotten older. Now he's too old and too cool to have singing and dance parties with mom 😅
Thank Kenny Ortega for the dance moves. He directed this film and the first one. He also directed all of the high school musical movies, Hocus Pocus, and the Michael Jackson This is It tour. Before that, he was the choreographer for Dirty Dancing. Thomas Doughtery who plays Harry Hook is an actual scott in real life so that's his real voice. He and Dove Cameron, who played Mel, were dating at this time. They broke up a few years after they finished the film series.
ever since the first one, ive been WAITINGGGG for the second one’s reaction!! “whats my name” and “its going down” still gets played in my car to no fail🤝
20:05 and that was the start to my Evie and Ben ship. She would've been a way better future queen than Mal, they just have more in common, and she would've adjusted better
Ben and Evie have so much chemistry in this movie! I really think that the two of them would be better suited for each other than Ben and Mal. They are so similar and while Mal would struggle in the role of queen, Evie would thrive in it. I'll forever defend this ship.
I mentioned this on the first movie, but they filmed some of this at the X-Mansion/Luthor mansion/Queen mansion (from X-Men/Smallville/Arrow). You can easily tell that in the opening song. Anyone familiar with the X-Men franchise will notice the outside locations.
Oh man the hype for this sequel was nuts when it came out. I graduated high school at that time and I was so ready to watch this and when Ways to be WICKED started playing I lost it. It was definitely the best sequel at the time and the cast really stepped up their game with everything. But adding China Anne McClain as Uma was everything you could ask for. It was so many years after she did A.N.T. Farm so we were thrilled to see her come back to Disney Channel and she nailed it here and in D3. Now we're anxious to see more of her in the Rise of Red later this month. Also seeing Carlos and Jane's relationship build up was too sweet. I'll always say that JARLOS is the best couple of the franchise. 23:30 Also FUN FACT: the reason why Dove Cameron (Mal) and Thomas Doherty (Harry Hook) had good chemistry was because they were dating at the time.
so at the time this was fillmed Dove Cameron (Mel) and Thomas Doherty (Harry /hook son) were in a relationship in real life so there was so much tension between them they cut some scenes bc it was too much sexual tension lol
Well to inform you, Dove Cameron and the guy who played Harry Hook were dating at the time of filming this movie. Thats why during the scene why Mal puts her gum on his hook, he eats it 😭
Another great video. I love getting notifications for reel rejects videos. My favorite song from this movie is chilling like a villain. Keep up the great work everyone 👍.
