What's really stupid is that Lee is totally fine with him and his damn girlfriend going to separate colleges but throws a hissy fit about his best friend going to a different college than him.
Honestly, the most unrealistic aspect of this movie is that Elle, who has the personality of a sack of flour, got into Harvard, Berkeley, AND USC without even trying
Okay- yeah to be fair the only ones Wattpad gives deals to seems to be toxic novels. I'm a writer on wattpad and I don't write stuff like this or After. Like that's toxic and I'm like 99% sure they need a therapist like a romance therapist 😅
@@williamrithaler4051 thats not the point the point its that they still follow rules that they made years ago and that clearly are terrible because they are the cause of all conflict in these 3 movies
@@Justaguythatcameby Seriously...if this movie were realistic, they would have made the rules in elementary school only for them to forget about it for nearly a decade and cringe if they ever rediscover it.
The fact that we are supposed to believe Elle got into Harvard, Berkley AND USC, and even got CALLED by Harvard as if she was special is ludicrous. And then even though she showed 0 interest in games other then DDR in the other movies, she suddenly is a gamer who gets accepted into game design without a portfolio and a GODAWFUL pitch?! I will try to erase this entire franchise from my mind forever. Thank you.
Lmao I swear when I was watching this i was like.. puh-lease! No uni would ever be calling somebody like that once u miss the deadline that is u boo boo. WORSE she was waitlisted? Like nah...
I love how they COMPLETELY forgot the only true passion she had: Dancing. the plto for the other 2 movies revolved around the dancing thing, the dance club in the first one, and the dancing competition in the second one. SHE SHOULD BE A DANCER. I'm pretty sure they made her go to "game desing" college just so she would be more "not like other girls" ans shit like that. but like, is 2021, women are in the gaming industry for so long now, is not inovative nor necessary to have your main character being a "gamer" just so she can be special
As for the waitlist thing, you accept your spot on the waitlist and accept the spot to the school you got into. So she should’ve said yes to UC Berkeley and paid the deposit while she waited for Harvard to respond.
My god Lee is such a toxic friend. Their whole friendship is so toxic. It starts falling apart over such petty things like not hanging out together for once. Why do you constantly need to be with each other to keep your friendship intact?
the only other movie i’ve personally experienced this with is the cat in the hat from like 2003. not that it’s bad bc i love that movie but it is a total fever dream and i felt like it has been 2 hours when watching it and i just reach the 20 minute mark. but with the kissing booth it’s just non tolerable
Yooo this, I decided to watch it for the heck of it and when I say this believe me. I thought I was halfway through the movie and then I checked the time stamp I was only 23 minutes in. I came here 😂
So how was that resolved? I'm not watching this movie, but I'm hoping the dad is still disappointed in her and didn't attend her graduation from USC, and they're still estranged because Elle finds out her dad's gf did kill her mother, but her dad won't believe it...
@@InBetweenMoleculesSadly that’s not what happened. Elle made peace with Linda and pretty much everyone in her life. I might’ve blocked it out but I don’t remember another scene with her dad
It’s so unrealistic that they haven’t seen each other for 6 years! Aren’t their families super close and celebrate thanksgiving and everything else together?
No honestly this movie felt like it lasted 12 hours. Took me the whole day to get through it 😭😭 I just thought it was because I was stoned but you saying it did for you too confirms this movie is a trip
LMAO it's 100% her fault for having no spine to stand up to them. She led them around, acted selfishly and made assumptions with everyone and then she plays the victim when the consequences smack her hard in the face. Like, she literally guilt tripped her dad and his new girlfriend for being together and acted like a 5-year-old in front of them. I have zero sympathy for her... or anyone else, really.
@@bananatiergod while she is unlikable, other people’s behavior are not, and never will be, anyone’s fault. Ultimately, we are responsible only for our own actions (and inaction).
It's so annoying how the boyfriend is mad at her for choosing to spending her summer with her best friend when they're gonna be living together and going to the same school.
So true also bro if u wave rights to do the bucket list you can’t be mad when she does bucket list things without u because you said you didn’t want to be included
lol but that’s pretty weird because most boyfriend would wat to spend their summer with their girlfriend right? Not only in th movie but also in real life. They’d get jealous
Personally I find the bestfriend, Lee, so extremely unlikeable. He complains about everything and is so whiny. When someone is in a relationship they want to spend time with their partner. He's toxic, immature and whenever he doesn't get his way he'll gaslight the situation and say that Elle is the one to blame. And although Elle has the most dullest, one-dimensional personality ever, I still find lee so annoying. Like bruh that's your brother's girlfriend not yours, stop being clingy.
YES!! Like when kids make up nicknames and demand everyone uses them, but bc lee is rich he demands the parents pay to have their names legally changed 😂😂😂😂
Seriously though - Lee, Noah, Elle, Evans, Flynn - why do all these characters have such vanilla names (no shade to real people)? Also I swear half the boyfriends in these shitty "romcoms" are called Noah lmao maybe it means wood in some language.
me not skipping any ads because i haven’t seen dylan this sad about a movie since princess protection program and he deserves all the ad revenue he can get
@@hannah-cq7kr Depressed was a word before depression, it's not talking about mental illness, it's talking about feeling down. You were absolutely right for using that word as intended. Some people are just ignorant on what they think they should protect.
For me the worst thing about these movies (and you know there are many options here), is the fact that the brothers seems to have NO relationship between them whatsoever. Like how did everything become about her? It's like the writers straight up forgot they were family while writing this. At least in The Vampire Diaries, Stefan and Damon had their relationship, which made it less about Elena, which is why it worked.
I feel like more of the memories between Ella and the bff would have more memories with the brother. Like both of my closes friends had a younger brother that I remember being there the whole time, and the older sister.
Completely skipped watching the third movie entirely and just decided to watch it with Dylan's commentary, which I think is the best decision I've made in 2021 so far
@kazuraine The transitions are so good. Well, this one perhaps not as much as usually because the hair comment just came out of blue xD But still, the effort must be appreciated, and he makes the ad segments actually enjoyable.
Just in case anyone was wondering: the likelihood of getting into Berkeley, Harvard AND USC is 0.0005. And that's for the average qualified applicant, which Elle is not (unless being insufferable is an extracurricular).
@@swastikasingh4458 you say fan fic world... the writer of TKB is British and said she took inspiration from a lot of American movies and books, so she was just using typical American fiction tropes and probably didn't know many other American universities
@@amityislandchum actually, if the math is right, that is how they work. the events aren't mutually exclusive, or co-dependent of each other just incredibly unlikely.
Dylan: "I am not a violent person" also Dylan the next 20min: waits to see blood when they fight, would throw his kid into a pit with snakes, wants someone to get seriously injured during the race and makes the stepmother a murderer
It’s so wild to me how literally every single main character is just such a terrible person that you go back and forth between hating them for how they treat others one moment and feeling bad for how the others treat them the next
he's probably talking about Everest uni it was shut down for pulling loans out in student names even tho the students never agreed I also went there... now I could be wrong since alot of schools that do that.
bruh if we’re talking in real life, that’s not possible. But they do whatever the hell comes out of their guts,they don’t care if it’s shitty or not. *GOD*
This is the first time dylan didn't mention hus college shutting down even after hearing the word "college" more than once. That shows how distracted he was by the dumbness of the movie that he EVEN FORGOT TO MENTION HIS COLLEGE TRAGIC STORY?!?!?!
@@Pandaluvsretrothings i watch her as well! she loves rachel sm istg i cannot stand any of these characters except for noah maybe, marco and chloe (fav character tbh)
I do find it frustrating that so many people are mad at Elle for "blowing off" dinner with Noah. Yeah, the flashmob was dumb but it was something she had planned with her friends WEEKS in advance and Noah throws a hissy fit, like "how dare you not cancel a prior engagement for my surprise dinner. I did something vaguely romantic for once 🤬."
Agreed, but honestly almost every “conflict” in this movie could have been fixed if literally anyone talked to another person…. Yea, they planned the flash mob for weeks, so why didn’t her boyfriend, WHO SHE LIVES WITH, know about it?
Every single relationship in these movies is SO toxic. Everyone is selfish and throws fits when things don't go exactly their way. It's just a bunch of spoiled brats.
Elle: never shows any interest in video games besides the fake dance dance revolution and playing Mario kart in like one scene w/the gokart Elle: “yeah I’m ‘designing games”
The more unbelievable part is the movie acting like designing video games is a successful business that is comparable to what you'd get from going to Harvard or Berkley
And when he predicts a plot or its element accurately even though he was joking, like the part where the girl's sad because, drumroll, her parents are getting a divorce
@@Kasiarzynka Not confusing just boring and so many pointless characters that did nothing. Like the hot chick. Why was she there? Nothing happened with her. Her invisible parents got divorced. So what. And Lees girlfriend, they could have been broken up the whole movie. Molly Ringwalds character wanted to sell beach house, then decided not to sell. The main girl decided to go to the same school her boyfriend went and then talked to Molly Ringwalds character and decided to do her own thing. And Marco just tried to get laid and failed. And the stepmom just pissed main girl off because she was acting like she had replaced her mom and she was upset about the monopoly piece because that was the piece her dead mother always used. That was the one of the two conflicts in the movie that was good and real. Also other good point was that the main girl was the people pleaser and that those dont get praised but taken advantage of and you really have to think of yourself and fight for yourself to get what you want. The end.
Marco and Chloe backs must be hurting from carrying this whole damn series like they’re better than the main characters in every aspect of these movies
Idk why but I felt after this movie Marco is soo needy....Like liking a taken girl is one thing which is fine cause that happens but chasing her and not getting a hint and trying to break her and her bf up is another thing...Like he was simping way too hard which was not attractive
@@nikitagigigeorge8572 Blame it on the writing. I’ve seen several love triangles that end up with the second guy turning into a clingy asshole or have something wrong with him. The writers are just like “Oh! The readers/viewers seem to like the second love interest more than the first one! Let’s shit all over that character!”
this movie was the embodiment of teenage hormones where elle thinks the world revolves arounds her and throws a tantrum every time it does not. literally hated it and did not find an appreciation for elle at the end of the movie
To be fair, Lee’s like that too. Every conflict in the movie is basically caused by him throwing a tantrum over Elle not catering to his feelings, her own be damned. Elle still sucks tho. They deserve each other.
Option 1: Dylan pre-watched the movie to make it seem like he guessed everything correctly. Option 2: Dylan is good at seeing where plots are going and correctly guessed everything. Option 3: the movie is so pathetically cliche that there's no point watching it because we ALL know what's going to happen. I'm going with 2&3
Plot of movies are getting really predictable, there's nothing new anymore. Once, my sister was telling about a movie she watched that she really liked and I guessed the ending of the movie without even watching it.
Sad he didn’t comment on the last internal monologue Elle did. That was the nail in the coffin for me, “and it was all bc of a kissing booth” like I literally have no words for my internal demise that happened after that writing.
I wanna c Dylan’s version of this movie… going broke, murdering mothers to take their place, go kart injuries, kidnapped brother, blood, rabbit foraging, savage mother, scheming, etc.
I thought the “I’m putting my foot down, you’re not selling the house” bit was a joke and that the parents would address it but they don’t. That just makes the characters super spoiled and very unlikeable.
I watched it through x1.5 the whole way and still felt it was soo long and wondered how Dylan would make it fun. But he managed to do it with the imaginary murder plot line as always
Lee: I don't matter to you really Elle: *literally bases her entire existence as well as major life decisions on making her petulant best friend happy*
I feel so sorry for jacob elordi cause he showed that he can play an extremely diverse character that has manyyyyy different issues that he portrayed really well in euphoria, but he was stuck doing this fucking trilogy. You can tell that he was so done with the whole thing in this film, like soooooo bored of it😂😂
I never hear it mentioned how Elle managed to choreograph a whole flash dance with tons of people without her boyfriend (who she's currently living with) hearing about it at some point. Like do they just not talk at all
that's exactly what i was thinking. i literally said "did she not tell her boyfriend about the massive flash mob she's planning?" like, i tell my boyfriend about a butterfly i saw on a walk, i wouldn't be able to shut up about it if i was planning a fucking FLASH MOB.
Elle and her boyfriend weren't super close. Like communication was one of their biggest issues! He did stuff without telling her especially on KB2, and then she was just "too busy" to tell him anything. And yeah they both agreed to Chloe and Marco stuff before talking to each other. Not that they need permission or whatever but it'd be nice to let your partner know BEFORE you decide to reintroduce a sort of gray area opposite sex person back in significant ways (especially Chloe living with them). Like even if they weren't dating and they were roommates, you consult roommates before someone crashes with them.
The fact that 3/4 of them were doing this flash mob and Noah had zero clue about it when both his brother and girlfriend were planning it is truly amazing to me. Also I hate how Noah was like "Oh I planned this romantic surprise to make it up to you and you want to blow me off because you already made plans? WTF; how could you? Blow off my brother (your bestie) and ditch the plans you already had for me."
@@nix_ They legit don't talk to each other. I'd also love to know when Elle had time to rehearse during her "extra hours". The "romantic dinner" was also such a weird and random appearance after a pretty significant dbag moment. Their while relationship was let's just fight, one person takes all the blame, okay let's kiss and make up without any sort of healthy discussion on what growth needs to happen, and THEN their surprised when repeated behaviors and relationship issues that were NEVER addressed end in them breaking up severely. Yeah...so many writing issues.
@@nix_ It would've been about a 30 minute movie trilogy if the characters actually communicated with each other so it makes sense to drag on the same issues for three movies (Noah's irrational temper and jealousy and toxicity, the brother's [forgot his name] clinginess, selfishness, and abusive immaturity, poor communication from EVERYONE, Elle just being clueless, without a backbone, and just blatantly ignorant of the color red (flags) in her vision at every turn, with the brothers.
Was Joey King contracted to make 3 of these? Cause if I was her, after being in an amazing series like The act and being nominateed for an emmy, I would definitely NOT continue making these lol
I guarantee they all signed a 3 movie contract in the beginning and hated their lives. Because the actor that plays Noah is also in euphoria, and there’s no way they knew how stupid these kissing booth movies would be
I do know they had tons of fun making them. Maybe not the Noah actor though… everyone else probably considered the movies as three long get togethers with friends 😂
@Melanie Pamela Grave Cifuentes but wouldn’t the actors have to pay a lot of money in order to break the contract and walk away from the movie? I don’t think they blackmailed their way into staying
“Maybe he’s using function of beauty… I bet that’s what it is” *Long awkward pause knowing that the audience is looking at him the same way because we know a sponser is coming* 😂😂😂
Jesus, with the way Lee acts I’m surprised (not but am, if that makes sense) it’s never been confirmed he’s been repressing his feelings for Elle this whole time 👁👁
I was thinking the same thing. I know Elle can have her moments but Lee was a bit selfish. When Elle would priortize herself or her bf, he would make her feel bad for not choosing him even when her reasons would reasonable at times. She was trying to balance her time with Noah and Lee.
I honestly thought this movie would end with Lee confessing that he’s been in love with Elle the whole series. His behavior doesn’t really make sense for someone who’s just friends imo
@@vanillamarshmallow Toxic codependency in friendships and family exist in real life it’s not something that is specific to romance literally at all lol
i have never watched any of these movies, only reactions to it, so when i found out these beach house wasn't even mentioned or shown in the previous movies (cause tbh all the houses look like beach houses, so i didn't know it wasn't in them), i was so annoyed. Like, this isn't Hannah Montana season 3 finale -- we don't care about this stupid house that was never mentioned.
I’m not team anybody. I’m team everyone gets therapy. People say Marco is too good for Elle, but he’s bad too; he actively pursued someone he knew was in a relationship and acted so needy.
She strung him along for a while, kissed him while in a relationship with someone else- he caught feelings. It's not right but I understand why he can't get over her.
Elle kept running to Marco for help, to whine about her crappy boyfriend, and I can not stress this enough, *She* Kissed Him! As @tiana1420 said, she strung him along and he developed feelings for her. Plus, he can see how toxic her boyfriend is and knows it's not healthy for her to be in a relationship with Noah. Elle likes playing with fire, but Marco feels compelled to keep her from getting burned. And the irony of this is, if Elle wasn't an idiot, she'd see clearly Marco would be a much better boyfriend.
The way he keeps stopping to check the time and only realizing that 30-45 mins have passed in film time is SUCH A MOOD with this movie, I LITERALLY stopped thinking I got like an hour in and I was only 20 mins in😐
This is legit the only way I'll ever watch these movies lol. I could never last the full length on my own, idk how you do it Dylan, but major props to you. Edit: all of you are braver than me. I'm sorry most of your time was wasted.
I want whoever is in charge of Harvard, Berkley and USC's social media accounts to just post like "Elle could never get into our school. Thanks but no thanks."😂
Dylan blindly guessing that the girl's parents are getting a divorce, right before she said it, was hilarious. Holy shit this movie is predictable. Hahaha
*dylan:* "i'm not a violent person." *also dylan:* "i have a feeling somebody's gonna get seriously injured. ah, don't get your hopes up dylan." *ALSO DYLAN:* "WHAT NO INJURIES?? WELL WHATS THE FUCKING POINT??"
