**IS THAT GANDALF?!!** Flushed Away Reaction: FIRST TIME WATCHING 

Any other stop motion or Claymation films I should check out??

Oh yeah, now this was a childhood classic of mine, watching it again made me realize how this movie was actually fairly decent

I love this movie its funny cuz Rodney is voice by Hugh Jackman and when he's choosing his outfit he's debating on if he should choose the wolverine one

Roddy was doing an impression of Tom Jones's "She's A Lady". The grandma liked him because he was popular among the ladies way back when. My dad said his aunt and grandma were crazy about him.

If anyone was wondering because as a child I always wondered why Roddy kept saying "Goodnight". It was because he was actually getting a goodnight back as opposed to the start of the movie when he was all by himself. Its quite sad but sweet at the same time.

I always loved that Roddy lived in a literal "gilded cage"

This movie is criminally underrated!

I've never clicked so fast!! So glad you watched this, it was so underrated and it was my favorite when I was little. Also, love the lighting set up you got going on

_Chicken Run, W&G: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit,_ and _Flushed Away._ The Aardman-DreamWorks Trio are an excellent collection of movies to be sure. This one specifically, was Aardman's first CGI film, and they knocked it out of the park! I like how the video kept chugging, making it look like stop-motion.

2:54 that's why they had him debating over the classic wolverine costume(the yellow and blue outfit) since hugh refused to wear it when playing wolverine since he didn't think it matched the character

nobody ever mentions this movie! thoroughly underrated!!! saw it at the drive in with my then 9 yr old. i was really pleasantly surprised by how well it was made and how much i really liked it. seen it at least 5 times and each time i like it even more. so unsung.

Flushed away took place in a place part of london called Kensington

The Toad is voiced by Ian McKellen.

Honestly this movie has a special place in my heart because I used to really like watching it when I was a kid even though it kinda feels like a fever dream.

I used to rewatch this so much as a kid!!! I love this movie!

I'm so glad I found your channel! Your reactions are wonderful, and I can tell you're very passionate about films. Did you study cinema history and/or filmmaking in college?

one of my core memories from my childhood is watching this film 3 times in a row the day my dad bought me it on dvd. it’s a shame it’s so criminally underrated but i am happy it’s starting to receive more attention now because this film deserves it

There's a lot of references to other Dreamworks movies, like the Alex doll you noticed. One of the outfits in Roddy's closet is the default Wallace outfit and most of the DVD's are other Dreamworks creations.

Do over the hedge

Someone prob already called it out but it’s funny U reference the climax as being like Gandalf and the balrog as the road is voiced by the actor who played Gandalf

this movie was my first exposure to the dancing with myself song, so it's literally impossible for me to think of anything else when that song comes on

Oouh yay havnt seen many people react to flushed away, another fun childhood classic ✨ love your reactions, so genuine and humble

i’m so happy u posted this omg

Now this is a good one ☺️😉

It’s a shame that this was the last Aardman film from DreamWorks because this film was a huge bomb at the box office, which led the two studios to terminate their partnership.

Just so you know, rats can survive very high falls. That's why Roddy and Spike are still alive.

The slugs will forever be my favorite characters in this movie.

A few years after this came out on DVD some friends were visiting from France with there 3 kids and staying at our home. This was a Family favorite so we watched it, 5 kids and parents. When it came to the part where Le'Frog says "We leave immediately" and he's told "It lunch time", he replies "We leave in 5 hours". My friends kids and their Mom(Dad's American) whispered a few words to each other in French and busted out laughing. They explained that's close to the truth.

This is a gem. Years ago I found this DVD sitting on a shelf at home. I don’t know who bought it or where it came from, (probably the $5 bin at walmart), but I enjoyed it.

Aardman Animations, Ltd. (also known as Aardman Studios, simply Aardman or Aardman Animation) is a British animation studio based in Bristol, England. It is known for films made using stop-motion and clay animation techniques, particularly those featuring its plasticine characters Wallace and Gromit, Shaun the Sheep, and Morph. After some experimental computer-animated short films during the late 1990s, beginning with Owzat (1997), Aardman entered the computer animation market with Flushed Away (2006). As of February 2020, which was 2 years ago, it had earned $1.1 billion worldwide, with an average $134.7 million per film. Aardman's films have been consistently very well received, and their stop-motion films are among the highest-grossing produced, with their 2000 debut, Chicken Run, being their top-grossing film, as well as the highest-grossing stop-motion film of all time.

I always forget this movie exist but every time I see it I remember how awesome it is.

One of my favorite animated movies, high on the re-watchability scale.

I loved this movie, but I didn't realize who all was in it! I only knew Ian McKellen, but Andy Serkis as Spike and Hugh Jackman as Rodney was a surprise to me just now!

Thank you for being one of the few reactors to react to this!!! I love this movie. 😀 👏

My kids LOVED this movie as toddlers. God I miss those days.

Really fun movie. My only nitpick is that strange unnecessary twist they pulled with the liar reveal trope. You initially think Roddy's lying about the jewelry and it surprisingly turns out he was telling the truth on that one, but then they still pull a liar reveal with him lying about having a family, but it turns out Rita doesn't mind that he doesn't have a family, BUT THEN he still brushes her off for no reason other than the writers needed an "all is lost" moment. XD

this was one of my all time favorite movies growing up, i watched it so many times as a kid and i never see anyone react to it! Thank you for watching this movie! Its very nostalgic for me so I like to watch it when i need to destress lol

I’m just now realizing that I think the artist rat earlier in the movie saying “that took me 3 years to draw”. I’m now wondering if that’s supposed to be a way of DreamWorks themselves saying that the movie took them 3 years to finish. I can definitely see that.

Note the book that the cockroach is reading at time 15:04. Kafka's Metamorphosis

Surprised I haven’t seen more big pages relating to this! I loved this movie 😭

I love this movie! The amount of puns in this movie made me crack up!

21:00 he likes hearing it back 😂

Sweet

I can't think of any claymation movies that aren't by either Tim Burton or Aardman. I think the difference between the two is that Burton's movies are more meaningful stories, while Aardman movies are not only a lot funnier, but they also specialize in claymation, so they're a lot better at it

Anyone else noticed that he was contemplating a 'wolverine' suite and it's Hugh Jackman is the voice actor?

I’m so glad that you did a reaction to flushed away. I was obsessed with this movie when I was 6. I never got the x-men references until I was older. Anyway I have some movie request that I think you’ll definitely enjoy. So movies are: Kingsman the secret service Big momma’s house Grown ups Expendables Good burger The mask She’s the man

I didn't get the Wolverine outfit jack until I realized Rody is voiced by Hugh Jackman

Every time I hear the words innocent bystander I giggle and that’s because of this movie. Lol

The reason Roddy says good night so many times is because he's never had anyone say it back to him.

I somehow missed this upload thought about this movie and found you had reacted to it. Sweet😂

I believe there was a secret ending after the credits where the owner comes home

I have this on DVD. Love it. And yes that is gandalf. You shall not pass

Thor: (trying to explain what Flushed Away is about) Me: (impersonates Le Frog) I know, I know. They were flushed away down thee loo, right?

Super Duper!

Other claymation things you should watch should be the wallace and gromit shorts and the shaun the sheep movies

Did you know over the hedge and flushed away are one of my favorite dream works movies 🎥

Notice the Wolverine outfit in the beguining, easter egg for Hugh jackman. If you like the aardman studios, you should watch the Wallace and Gromit shorts, in wrong pants, out of cheese, and a Close shave, and then watch Shaun the sheep.

My childhood classic

Fun fact: In England, Soccer is called football as it only use of the players bodies is the feet. And the football in England is originally called rugby.

Great reaction! Definitely loved the comedy and singing slug moments of this film! Another claymation I think is The Willoubys; it’s on Netflix and about children who wants a happy family. 🐭🐹🐸🚽

Can’t believe they used the Wolverine gag with that comic accurate outfit as a choice for Roddy in the opening lol 😂

Another fantastic claymation Aardman movie is THE PIRATES: BAND OF MISFITS It's extremely underrated in my opinion. Makes me laugh every time!

2:31 An Alex the lion plush from 'Madagascar' and the rabbits plushies are from 'wallace and gromit curse of the were-rabbit'

theres honestly so many songs that are actually apart of whats happening in the movie its basically a jukebox musical

I found "A Matter of Loaf and Death" a little better than "the curse of a were-rabbit". Like, the whole setup not so goofy, just a right amount, good action scenes.

Yes, more Aardman movies!!

Hi, thor can White noise react to insidious 3, the last house on the left 2009, and the house of thousand corpses? Thank you

That spotlight is giving me Bohemian Rhapsody vibes lol.

Late comment, but in my country, the same person who voiced Gandalf in my country's dub is the same person who voiced the frog in this movie's dub.

React to Scooby Doo meets courage the cowardly dog movie next please 😘😘🥺🥺 Eustace has a rap song in it and I want you to see

Fun movie. I always saw the trailer when I watched the DVD of Madagascar or Over The Hedge, but didn’t watch it until movie

*is it just me or does anyone else think 'mrballen', 'thor reacts' and james from 'white noise reacts' could be brothers??*

Before the Minions, there were the Flushed Away slugs

Christopher lee should’ve voiced the toad he’s more dastardly as a villain vs Ian he’s so charming and heroic I guess they did it so toad wouldn’t sound too dark for kids

Im so glad u reacted 2 this this movie was my childhood growin up man I luv tha caracters Roddy n Rita both n tha entire story I new Roddy was voiced by Hugh Jackman n Kate Winslet Is Rita

For the final battle against toad it was like wolverine vs magneto all over again.

You can easily tell the "Ruby" was fake because it has seam on the side plus it is way too light because Rubies are dark red, red with purplish/ pink/ orange tone.

No it’s Wolverine and magneto lol but yes if you want to say Gandalf

17:23 that’s what she said 😂

I have vhs 📼 nostalgia flashbacks again, very decent movie

2:30 You can see Alex the Lion and the rabbits from Wallace and Gromit in the bedroom.

This one actually isn't stop motion. It's CGI.

classic Wallis and Gromit are worth a watch and the Clangers should be checked out as well

You should definitely check out the Laika studios movies. Especially Kubo and the Two strings, but all of them are good. They are the best stop motion films in my opinion. Great reaction! This was one of my favorite movies as a kid

Highly recommend rewatching the claymation movies and really pay attention to the details going on in the scenes. Lot of hidden jokes.

17:14 hey your reaction is awesome

I think you missed the after credit scene with the human family coming back

I’m still waiting for Madagascar. Also I love your Chanel as a kid I found this film a little creepy but now it’s such a cool animated movie 💙 your videos Thor

im waiting to u react to ParaNorman 🥺❤

Anyone else besides me ever thought that Rita was low key kind of pretty?

still waiting for Disney Pixar Cars (2006) 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥🔥🔥

Why was there food left on the table? You got cake and sausages..why

27:18 talk about a player☠️

For me, the first claymation I watched was A Claymation Christmas Celebration from 1987. And Early Man from 2018 wasn't too bad. A bit corny, but somewhat lovable. I watched it more for the actors, Eddie Redmayne, Tom Hiddleston, Maisie Williams, and Timothy Spall, than the plot.

Thor, please watch How to Train Your Dragon, please!!!

Stellar cast but honestly, it's the little random slugs that really sold the movie for me

Watch your videos makes me sad because i used to have a great long blonde hair just like yours, but the baldiness caught me
