    I really liked how Dani and Max's sibling relationship was portrayed, with him not hesitating to save her from the witches, and her hitting the sisters with her candy bag to get them to leave Max alone. They felt just like natural siblings.

    I love how in the original film the Sanderson sisters were villains. True villains. The stakes were high, children died. When the sisters failed and were destroyed, it was deserved. Too often these days the “villains” are too sympathetic, it erases any real feeling of conflict and the morals of the story are gone. The parallel storylines between Max and Binx (about loving and putting your life on the line for their family) are an underrated part of this movie and what makes it a true classic to me.

    • @lblincoe2094
      @lblincoe2094 Год назад +4

      Yeah, but do we really need a portrayal of villains? In life there ARE no villains. Villains aren't realistic and isn't art meant to imitate life? There's no such thing as a "good" guy or a "bad" guy, there's just normal, complex humans who sometimes do good things and sometimes do bad things.
      And, I personally think, if there's anything we NEED to portray, we're much more lacking in empathy and compassion in this world than we are in villainous evil! Is it really a bad thing to show that even the "bad guy" can be worthy of deeper understanding? That people who hurt people usually do so because someone hurt them? That people who do bad things are still capable of change?
      If the witches hadn't been essentially destroyed by their own folly, I'd like to believe that Becca's gesture of kindness would've made a difference to them. We saw Winnie transform from vindictive and angry to gracious and humbled, I can't imagine she would've been so insistent on the same destructive trajectory if given the chance to live on after that. I think that says something about the power of empathy and kindness.
      I don't know, maybe I'm too much of a naive "sunny side" kind of person, but I didn't necessarily find it a bad thing to show the witches had some humanity 🤷🏼‍♀️

      I definitely agree. They put too light of a spin on this sequel. I appreciate the backstory, but where the original kept it campy AND dark, it felt like the sequel was all camp. It’s partially a sign of the times but I also felt they could have made it darker and made them more villainous than they did

    The second Hocus Pocus had some funny scenes. And it was so cute to see the Sanderson Sisters as children. The young actress playing a child Winifred did so good 👍👍👍
    However, as a 90's kid, the original has my heart forever ❤️ It's disappointing the original cast of kids was not part of the sequel. I would've liked to see Ice and Jay come back 😂 And of course, Max, Dani and Allison 💕

    part of the reason the sandersons were defeated in the first film was because they didn't understand the love between Dani and Max. I mean, even when Sarah and Mary get turned to dust by the sun, Winifred doesn't hesitate to continue to suck the soul out of Max. She doesn't show any hurt or sadness about her sisters turning to dust, just urgency to finish what she started.

    "Come Little Children" will always feel creepy to me, since I first heard it as a 12 year old. I was a kid. The original will always win for me - I feel like it had a more rounded story with depth, sacrifice, suspense, disturbing aspects, and a happy ending, plus I could relate to the kids. But, I do have to give it to the kids who played the young Sanderson Sisters. They nailed those roles perfectly. And I straight up cackled at Mary's roombas. :D
    As for how they know the lyrics to modern songs, I'm thinking Hell's recording studio can also tap into radio waves. :)

There was a changed in 2, for in the first it was said that the book was given to Winnifred by the Devil, but the second reveled it was another witch, dubbed the Mother Witch.

    I feel like the original Hocus Pocus is the Superior film and though Hocus Pocus 2 started off strong I don't particularly like some of the new characters especially the mayor who is very annoying. I didn't really care about the teenagers in this sequel. I felt that the movie trying to make it clear that the one teenager was a witch was a little annoying and it just sort of felt like a Mary Sue character when they got into trouble. I also didn't like how when the Sanderson sisters came back they broke into song. it felt ridiculous. even though I'm a huge musical theater fan I feel like the first Hocus Pocus they didn't just break into song even "Come Little Children" was a siren song which makes sense in the context of the movie and "I Put a Spell on You" was a spell of disguised as a song which they did a similar thing with "one way or another" in the sequel but it also felt out of place. there were a hundred things I didn't like about the sequel and even though it's not an awful sequel It's not one that I probably will watch again unless its with my friends. I also hated what they did with the ending where they try to make Winifred have a change of heart which felt like a totally different character. One thing that I liked about the original movie was that the Sanderson sisters were unapologetically evil and yet you still like them because they were super funny and over the top but in the sequel they try to make them more sympathetic which ruined it for me.

    Hocus Pocus 2
    Pros:
    -We see the Sanderson Sisters origin story
    -Call backs to the first movie
    Cons:
    -Call backs to the first movie: They rely heavily on the callbacks, to the point where the movie doesn't really have its own identity
    -Weak character development
    -Secondary characters that the movie could have done without
    -The Sanderson Sisters don't pose a threat, nor do anything that makes them seem like they're dangerous
    -Winifred, Mary, and Sarah didn't seem to learn anything from the previous movie. One of Winifred's first words is that they won't get tricked again, but they get tricked instantly.
    -The reason how and why the witches were brought back
    -Inaccuracies with the lore and information given from the first film
    -How Winifred, Mary, and Sarah got the spell book
    -The spell Book having a mind of its own
    -The ending
    The first movie is better and I rather stick to that.

    One way or another, the second does not put a spell on you like the first. The first had the classic 'good vs evil' theme, and the children ended up being the downfall of the Sanderson Sisters. The second doesn't hold a black candle to the first. The sequel was better suited to streaming , or future airings on Disney's cable channels (Which feature the OG yearly around Halloween). For those not subscribing to Disney+, wait a year for it on cable. You won't miss out on much by waiting.

    How do the witches know the songs:
    I just figured someone in hell is singing it to them. Or the devil gives them some magic way of keeping up with the times musically. Or just magic! Hahaha
    With this movie, that's the least of my concerns. There are definitely other potholes.

    Nothing beats an original. As Sidney Prescott said: "Don't fuck with the original".

    Not even a contest, the first one is way better. The second had some fun moments, but I think it was missing the Binx character.

    Hocus pocus 2 is the best

    The original was the best. I watch it every year for Halloween.. The second was cute but had a lot of repeats from the original and didn’t have “that feel” the first had..

    The first one. I watched the second one a couple of weeks ago. It was dull. I know the first one is not perfect, but the movie has been a cult following and popped up every Halloween.

    The original is still the best. The new kids were "asleep" the whole movie - They felt very slow and low energy. Bette, Kathy and SJP just fell right back into their original roles so wonderfully, that it just made the new kids look even slower. And the ending of the new movie was just bad. I hated the "misunderstood villain" thing they tried to do, like they did to Angelina Jolie's Maleficent. Just let them be evil witches, like was pre-established in the original. That's how we like them. That's how we fell in love with them. "friendship was the real magic all along" is so lame.
