PLEASE REACT TO "SPIRIT: STALLION OF THE CIMARRON"! It's a story about a strong, beautiful horse with a spirit that can never be broken. I cry every time I watch it! It's a INCREDIBLE film, and the songs are so cool! But it's not a musical and the animals can't talk. 😭💔🔥
@@artbeeeeeenot really, a kingdom is really just a country with a king or a queen as the leader and their descendant (or other family members if dead) are meant to take over the kingdom after them not everyone needs "royal blood", only the leader has to the rest can just be peasants (just like most people under a monarchy)
I love that Matthew spends the entire time confused as to why the staff are just ignoring/forgetting the presence of the evil queen. They have spent every minute so far trying to turn Raven into her mother and have classes to train the next generation of evil. They taught her to be what she is. They do not care.
They also trapped her in the mirror and "assure" that she wouldn't escape. The Evil Queen is out for some reason and it seems like she just came after a Lil vacation
Ngl if they're gonna train someone to be evil. They should also celebrate that the student is finally evil. Like why isn't the schl celebrating Evil Queen's evil maniac mentality when their whole goal is to make a kid that evil? Won't it make Raven want to be evil more?
The thing is Idc how evil a character is, what determines my hatred is if they own up to it. The evil Queen knows she's evil and revels in it, whilst Snow White is a bad too but she acts like she isn't. That's why I love the Evil Queen.
Yeah, Snow White is an hypocrite, while the Evil Queen is not afraid to be herself and doesn't hide how evil she is. That is actually a very common theme in fairytales, where the hero can do bad things but is still regarded as a hero, while a villain does bad things and is punished by that.
@@Dani_1012 I laugh everytime I see these comments because I love both regina and Janis 😭😭 (probably cause Janis can still be an interesting character, meanwhile Cady was kinda... Uh.. boring-)
It's interesting that Faybelle idolizes the Evil Queen when the latter stole the former's mother's role as the villain of her story by being the one to put the Sleeping Beauty to sleep. But then again Faybelle really wants to become the best Dark Fairy and being mentored by the greatest villain of all time would allow her to get just that. In fact, that is the reason why Faybelle dislikes Raven, since she not only is daughter to the greatest villain ever and has the best villainous destiny, but she really doesn't want anything to do with it. It's actually very similar to what Duchess is going through, since she resents those who have happily ever afters but don't want them, while she is stuck with an awful fate.
Snow White and the Evil Queen are technically the most powerful characters/monarch in the EAH Universe. Basically how Apple is the ‘leader’ of the Royals and Raven for the Rebels. That’s why the 2 are so hyped up with their destiny’s. Apple wants her destiny as the future Queen not just of her story but the Fairy Tale world and same goes to Raven, the most evil and powerful being/villain.
I would like to make a clarification that the whole royal and rebel thing isn’t exactly a side picking that existed because of snow or evil queen it was made first by raven and apple, Raven who when she refused to sign was made leader of the rebels even tho she did not want to be.
But they *are* addressed as either royals or rebels since the beginning of the show, with royals being those with typically happy stories and rebels being sort of antiheroes. "Rebel" only gained a more literal meaning after Raven didn't sign and you could very literally rebel against your destiny.
Same, the story is amazing. The outfits are fucking gorgeous. And I love the baby dragons especially nevermore. Not to mention the hairstyles MWAH gorgeous.
I think a lot of people forget where Apple (and also most of the characters of this show) are coming from : a place that, for generations, is following the same path of "Must get your destiny". It doesn't excuse the thing they do, especially Apple, but when you look at her mom, you can see she lived her entire life being compared to her, being put on a special rank just because of her destiny, and her mother is manipulative as hell. Apple truly believes that her only worth is her destiny, her mom probably told her horrible stories and since young, inserted the ideas of "Raven MUST be the Evil Queen for you to have a good life, she wants it too" Like every characters : Kitty wanted her mother's approval so much she did horrible things, Briar realised THIS YEAR what her destiny would mean but before she hadn't really thought of that, etc It's not helped by the principal enforcing this rule bc for him, it's the safe thing to do It's also why this show is so good : it takes people like Raven (who just wants a life that is hers), Cerise (her parents didn't follow their destiny) and Darling, to change things, to open others people's eyes, because until now, they only had one side of the story (joke implied) And as to why no one is concerned about the Evil Queen : the propaganda of Snow White is biiiiig. She is considered the most powerful, just because she is the Hero of her story, and the people, having been told again and again of the stories, think she is all powerful in the face of the Evil Queen Snow White is very good at manipulating people, can't imagine what it must be to be her child... It doesn't excuse the actions Apple (or other characters) took, it just helps understanding the characters better : they aren't all black and white like they themselves think they are, they are complex and young and very real for a story That's why I love this show so much, it talks to real life issues and people on many ways
Honestly we can assume that for show apple but in the books it was stated that apple fell down a well and realized her life can change at any moment so she became desperate for her destiny, I don’t know why snows persona was changed completely in DG Apple’s selfish motives aren’t completely bad either she’s badly mentally damaged and because of her trauma goes to insane lengths nothing wrong with her seeking safety
@@gentlegem you should! They by far are more interesting then the show and have better writing honestly i wish shannon just dealt with the whole plot by herself considering the writers of the show was just a- at times
same especially with the dolls 😭 I also really thought Snow & the Evil queen were gonna be siblings cos they look so similar but now we'll never know if that was gonna be a storyline
I love how Mathew called Daring getting sucked into the Booking Glass almost immediately, I laughed so hard. His reaction this entire video to Apple basically being blackmailed and having the mentality of "I'm going to get something out of this deal" is golden, I couldn't stop smiling the entire time. I can't wait to see him watch the next part :D
To make the Nevermore size change more clear- just as maddie's dragom has like cotton candy powers and another one has ice powers and stuff like that, Nevemore's power is to change sizes from baby to teen to adult, and it's her own uniqe power, the other dragons can't to that.
My favorite doll that I had was the dragon games darling charming. I was so devastated when I realized I got rid of her and regretted it so much. Luckily, I was able to find one that’s completely brand new and that exact same doll and I felt so whole knowing that I had my favorite childhood toy back in my arms.
Well they aren't really good and evil. It’s more like Punch-In Villains but they live with the consequences. Like the school specifically teaches students to be evil and do the crimes they imprison them for. A bunch of their staff is kinda classic villains. Snow White and The Evil Queen are essentially their most successful alum. Of course the school is happy to see them compete. And they expect things to go wrong but the heroes will save the day because that's the narrative they've been perseving.
Evil vs unknowing narcissist is so fun to watch! Snow is ignorant to her narcism while the evil queen fully embraces it! its fun watching a character who completely embraces being evil while the narcissist who is unaware is both interesting to watch and frustrating and makes me hate her more. I love the evil queen who is unapologetically evil and find Snow frustrating and hate more because she denies that she is like the evil queen too and can't admit it. each episode the story gets better! I loved these episodes and storyline! there are a few shows that I get sucked in immediately while others can take a while, I got sucked in immediately! This was my favorite season and storyline- I found the most interesting and complex of all the seasons - I enjoyed all of them! Please continue and finish the show !
I don't know if it's intentional but the Evil Queen blackmailing Apple while brushing her hair could be a call back to Snow White (the story) except the comb is a brush and the poison is blackmail in a way i guess ??
In a society that seems to value following your destiny, Snow White and the Evil Queen followed their destined roles very very closely so I think that’s why they’re so well liked 😊
I think Apple lashing out is still shitty but also understandable considering where she is rn. Not excusable just understandable lmao She is kind of backed in a corner and she still wants to hold onto a childish idea that her and Raven can both have a happily ever after if they just go along with parts of their story (because we’ve established it doesn’t have to happen exactly like the original by this point). And Apple is obsessed with meeting her mother’s expectations and so anything that would threaten that is scary. (Again, her mother is just awful and very in the wrong for putting sooo much pressure on Apple to be perfect.) And of course she’s being manipulated by the evil queen. Mentally she’s pretty unstable at this part of the story. And now Raven is in a bad situation too where her mother is actively trying to sabotage her reputation. Bad times. This special continues to get better so I’m excited for you to see the rest.
3:06 Matthew asked how she can just pardon the Evil Queen, well, Snow White is loved by every single person so they wouldn't care what she declared and she is also VERY rich to buy anyone's opinion and she's rhe Queen of the area the school is locatef I'm pretty sure
my favourite thing is when Matthew pauses and goes on a rant, and then as soon as it plays he's like "oh nevermind", like he always pauses slightly too soon
For how concerned they were I kind of connected it to them not really caring because they've had raven around for years so they think it'll just be like that or they're used to thinking someone evil is around. The only people seeming relatively concerned is Raven because she knows her mother and has been the "evil" the schools been worried about and Darling because she's only just joined when Raven isn't seen as bad if I'm correct so she doesn't hold the schools same attitude
3:01 Apparently in their world Snow white is the first fairytale, but I'm guessing that the popularity of the fairytale in the real world is what gaves them power. As such, Snow White is the most powerful and important tale of their land. 4:32 Apollo gives the gift of prophecy for comedic effect
It surprised me too how Snow White could just temporarily pardon the Evil Queen, while the Grimm bros just stand by and don’t object at all. They’re the brothers Grimm! They are timeless storytellers that MADE the fairytales of these people and thier kids! Despite being just headmasters of a school, you think being such magical authors would give them higher authority than Snow. They MADE her story! She wouldn’t be Queen without them.
I feel like you should listen to the songs from Dead End Paranormal Park. You’d probably like songs like You’re my Frankenstein, Somewhere down there, and Just some guy
Matthew going on about how Apple is kind of being evil is hilarious. Especially because he doesn't know the fan theory that the evil queen swapped Apple and Raven at birth to put her daughter on the throne, which would explain why apple doesn't have black hair like her mother and is able to justify all her actions even if there is no actual reason, and Raven only wants to help people. Edit: also him not remembering that Raven also nearly freed the Evil Queen she was just lucky Nevermoore was there to stop her. The evil queen is a master manipulator using everyone's fears against them.
I also love Epic Winter... especially because it starts one great ship that honestly I didn't see coming, but I am glad that exists, since it explains so much about one character.
I like the change with Snow White being royalty and years of prosperity going to her head. As if after she married her prince and got a taste of the high life, she became as bad as the Evil Queen. Just in different ways.
It's so funny how every time Apple points out to her promised Happily Ever After, the Evil Queen goes "What. OH yeah, that, sure"😭 She is so blatant with how much she does _not_ care about their deal and I love it. Sucks for Apple tho.
I bet the chill will break the second you see Apple white lol Also, great video! Keep doing what you are doing! you are awsome and ty for all the hard work you put into your videos!
@Mathew McKenna, I’m not sure if you heard this one, but please check out this song based off Bendy and The dark Revival, “The Details in The Devil”, by JT Music
I dont know what it is but i just love fairytale character's kids all going to a magic high school. I love decendants (which is actually why this show was canceled 😢), ever after high, a book series called school for good and evil (highly recommend), and (a little different) once upon a time 🧚♀️👸📖🧙♀️🧙♂️
Everybody juSt wrote it down to your notebook... Mathew has said "I feel bad for her" AND THE "HER" IS APPLE!!!!( At the 9:42)This is the most suprising thing that happened today for me... MATHEW nhas said a good thing to Apple for the first time(which I guess will be the last one though)But I can't blame Mathew for that to be honest I can't say that I love Apple White soo much...
I think the Queen is trying to corrupt or use Apple. I mean, even under a spell, Apple was evil and smart enough to almost end the world! I think she knows how much more potential Apple has to be evil, and sought revenge on Snow by corrupting her daughter. What greater revenge is there?
Your next musical reaction needs to be either Bartok The Magnificent (1998) or The Swan Princess (1994). 😎 Bartok The Magnificent is a direct-to-video spinoff of Anastasia, which employs the same songwriters, and is better than you might expect it to be! The Swan Princess uses the same singing voice as Anastasia for its own leading lady, Princess Odette!
Idk if you’ve delved into the fandom at all, but I like the theory that Apple and Raven were switched at birth and that subconsciously Apple suspects it, which is why she has the selfish evil streak where Raven has the inherent goodness. It also kinda explains why Apple pushes so hard for Raven to be evil and sign the book, and why the evil queen seems to glom onto apple kinda
A suggestion for you to react to would be to do empires the musical. It's not really your thing, but I love it, and I feel like it would be fun for you to watch it. For anyone that doesn't know, empires the musical is based off of empire smp, a server where 12 minecraft creators tried to build their own empires, while making aliances, trades, and having wars.
Tbh i dont really see the evil queen as evil. Small tidbit but the parents of the eah characters arent the original fairytale characters their past eah students just following their destiny. And thats what evil queen is doing is just following her destiny but trying to chsnge it so she has a happy ending
The evil queen is pretty much evil she doesn’t care about others and has one goal: to take over the world with her daughter wholesome as it is she’s also pretty abusive towards raven and tends to be narcissistic
@@Lovesickjnk i mean i do agree that the way she treats raven is awful and i do not condone it but i can see it from her point of view. This is whwt everyone expects of her, like raven she likely had no choice to what she wanted her destiny to be. And when she does what everyone wanted of her she's locked up and hated for eternity. Everything she does after that is trying to find a happy ending in the only way she knows how, being evil
but in the last special didn't they Destroy the book ? By that logic how is Apple still atempting to get her "happily ver after" if the destines don't exsist anymore?
Ever heard of Beavis and Butthead, it has a ton of adult jokes mostly about chicks and scoring. They even got a 5 year old Boy to burn his house, because Beavis loves fire.
What is crazy, snow white story is that the evil queen is step mother. So that will make Raven her half sister and Raven is Apple aunt. If they are going with that storyline, the maths looks wrong.
Also if Raven did become the next evil queen she'd have to marry her half-sister's husband, then have a child with said much older man to repeat the cycle.
Probably shortly after snow white gets married or at the same time that snow gets pregnant, Raven is a few months younger than Apple and every new fairy tale generation most likely should happen at the same time
I would love to see you react to the Sonic Unleashed soundtrack! Particularly- Windmill Isle Day, Dragon Road Day, Jungle Joyride Night and Cool Edge Day/ Night 🫶🏻💕
You should react to the older rwby music at some point. I just went back and rewatched and I forgot how much I loved Casey Lee and Jeff William’s songs
I don't remember if I made a comment about this but something that confuses me is why were the WONDERLANDIANS cheering for the Evil Queen (and just the whole game in general)?? Like the background characters that aren't main characters I don't really care cause we don't know them and we don't know if they'd actually be on board with this, but Kitty, Bunny, and Alistair would NOT be cheering for the person who cursed their home (and also, didn't EQ almost take Alistair out??). Like are they just like "oh yeah it's fine the portals are open again let's just completely forget about what she did!"?? 😭
It's really sad because these are children. Apple especially because she was born with the expectation that she would be better, more popular, more liked, etc. than everyone else... perfect in every way as their future queen supposedly should be. It's indoctrination though; that's why she can't shake the destiny thing. She doesn't see her role in the world if not for her destiny as the next Snow White, so she's led to side with the Evil Queen to see it come to fruition, even though it hurts everyone else around her. That's why I have so much empathy for Apple... she knows deep down what she's doing and what she believes about destiny are wrong and harmful, but it's extremely difficult to shake one's whole life's worth of indoctrination into a likely millennia-old tradition and way of life, especially coming from literally the highest point of privilege.
