Honestly, if it was about mila, killing psycho killers, like she was the hero, but then it put the problem, that she, more than being a hero, is a psycho killer, and then the movie deal with that until the end of the film, it will be a great plot, in My most sincere opinion. But well, they do that movie.
@@jojosiwais5988 doesn't mean they couldn't have come up with something that made sense. It should've been that if it was so easy for her to kill the world's most notorious serial killer at 12 years-old then it was obviously her calling~ to be a better serial killer etc.
"Patrick Bateman, the world's most notorious Serial Killer." They somehow managed to completely dismantle the entire point of the movie in just one sentence. The entire joke/message of the original American Psycho is Patrick Bateman was a life-long, elusive serial killer hidden in plain sight that slowly started to unravel throughout the film because he felt his "mask of humanity" was slipping away... only to discover that, by the end of the film, he lives in a world and society so ridiculously narcissistic and self-centered that Patrick Bateman's existence is basically invisible. When Patrick completely loses it and manically confesses all his crimes to his lawyer in a crazed phone message, the next day that lawyer laughs about it because he thinks it was a practical joke on one of the other guys in the office... When he talks to Patrick Bateman directly he doesn't even realize its him, his own lawyer calls him "Davis" who is actually someone else that works in the office, and when Patrick doubles down on his confession and tries to impress upon him about the fact that his killing of Paul Allen was not a joke, his lawyer tells him its impossible because he "had dinner with him twice in London 10 days ago." The entire story is supposed to be a commentary of wallstreet and big business culture (particularly the era of the "Gordon Gecko" power broker in the 80's) and how its a society that cares about literally nothing else but wealth and status. Every social interaction these people have is solely to make money or elevate their own position.. the only time they even properly remember each other's names is when their fawning over each other's business cards. Patrick Bateman's true nature is that of a Psychopath, and throughout the movie he's terrified of letting his nature be revealed to the world because it will be his end, but then his discovers by the end of the movie that he's actually surrounded himself in a world of sociopaths that are either too self-centered to notice who Patrick really is, or worse, genuinely do not care. I'm not sure if it was the author's intention or not, but there's even a case to be made that there could be some allegorical aspect to the story that's related to sexual assault and misconduct in the business world, kind of like how Harvey Weinstein's true nature of being a disgusting, groping and command raping monster was somewhat of an open secret in Hollywood and no one did anything about it for years because it wasn't in their self interest to do so. "Most notorious serial killer" defeats the entire spirit in which the original story was penned.
Incredibly well made comment, the other thing, Patrick is a massive narcissist so giving him recognition for his horrendous cr***s (at least in this case because this sequel removes the ambiguity) is in my opinion what you should never do with his character, glorify him, he is a pathetic piece of s**t, and he doesn't get away because he is smart and fully plans out his m***ers, he gets away because he is rich, he gets away because he is in a position of power
yuisaway what a champ, he even makes the sponsored shit funny. tbh everyone wins there, we get more funny shit, drew gets to be funny more, and squarespace gets more people watching their bit.
I legit thought you edited in the music for that ending shot in American Psycho 2 as a joke but nope lolol. Its like they were ending a teen comedy lmao
3:30 I love how the other card is actually better. Bateman's one has some rookie mistakes, like not making the name stand out more in relation to "vice-president" text
oh my gosh I'm so mad with this sequel Danny gonzalez was such a great actor in the first video and I have no idea why this "drew gooden" is trying to replace him smh also what happened to the relationship between drew and Arnold. In the first one, drew constantly flirts with Arnold. They clearly love each other. The stupid sequel though completely messed it up, making them only just become friends at the end of the movie.
Ikr? Ugh. 2/10 stars, at best. I miss the dynamics of their relationships in the first movie, and there was so much chemistry between Danny & Arnold. ScrEW this "Drew" guy, he couldn't act if his dumb face depended on it.
Not sure how a 12 year old girl knew that Patrick Bateman was a “notorious serial killer”. Nobody knew. He covered up his crimes completely. Not only that, he’s a single businessman. Where did she come from?
@@zawrator4457 not to mention his dad would have swept it all under the rug. I mean his father owns one of the biggest stock broking companies on Wall Street. He has enough power to do anything.
Mila Kunis: "I dedicated myself to killing the other psychos" Also Mila Kunis after there's competition for a TA job: "...Or random students, that works too"
i love how the bateman murders were clearly fake in his head cause the man legit kills that one hooker with the chainsaw in the most absurd way but also no one came out to hep her when they heard all that?..ok ...its clearly fabricated...
@@razkable I mean it's fairly easy to justify those murders as actually having happened as well. Patrick Bateman is rich. (most of) his victims are poor nobodies. no one cares if a girl on the corner or a homeless person gets murdered. his exploitation of the power dynamic between rich and poor and the feasibility of a rich man getting away with killing poor people is part of what leaves the conclusion of the story actually open for interpretation. I think it's fun to view the movie as all in his head too, but (especially since It's A Movie, crazy chainsaw murder could still happen) there isnt necessarily a clear One interpretation
that's what i was thinking when drew was explaining what they were originally going for! give mila kunis a best friend that kills her in the end and itd feel more like a jennifer's body "remake" than AP2
I really think that if American Psycho 2 had been officially released as a stand-alone film as intended, it could have become like a campy cult classic
It was genuinely one of my favourite movies growing up lol. It had massive plot points that Drew didn’t touch on and which completely tore it apart if you applied even the lightest logical touch, but it was still fun. What made it unique was that it was utterly light, there were no real heavy or scary moments, which made it very light watching. It definitely feels more like a comedy that just happens to be about a serial killer than it does a movie actually about a serial killer.
One other dumb thing Drew didn't mention when he was talking about American Psycho 2 was that Mila's character killed the person she was pretending to be the entire movie, but after we learn this fact we never get her actual name. What's the point of telling us "oh this person you thought was Rachel actually murdered the real Rachel and took her place" only to not tell us who we've actually been following this whole time?
Do you guys remember the movie Tooth Fairy with The Rock? It was like an ex-hockey player (Played by Dwayne) becomes a Tooth Fairy and goes on a wacky, zany adventure. Very good movie, well-received by all critics. What most people don't know this but they actually made a sequel to it. Dwayne is unfortunately not in the sequel, but Larry the Cable Guy replaced his role so we can't really complain
I kinda wanna see a “despecialized edition” of The Girl Who Would Not Die just to see how much better it would have been. Probably not that good but it wouldn’t be as bad
Right? There's a seed of a good movie in there. Mila Kunis has the charisma to carry a dark comedy. Just cut out the weak American Psycho tie-ins and retool the script to make the main character less insufferable.
Yeah editing does so much if the narration was taken out and the film reedited it could actually be a fun dark comedy where she keeps killing people to try to get what she wants but it's only making things worse and not in her favor
such a disappointment that you didn't have danny or someone else do the commentary in this video for you. that way its more in the vein of the sequels that aren't sequels.
But he did. He did do that. When he made a joke.... about Danny doin it..... he already made the joke. It’s not a good idea because he already made the effing joke
petition to make the production company release *the girl who wouldn't die* as it should have been before the bateman-not-bateman storyline was hatcheted in.
American Psycho 2 just reinforces how badly the original movie was marketed, the trailers and the posters really wanted the general public to think it was some scary and twisted crime drama like Silence of the Lambs when in reality it was something different. I bet many people back then went in expecting a horror movie and were disappointed to see a bunch of bussiness card talk.
This is completely true. I have never watched American Psycho and I thought it was everything you described. Only after I've seen this video have I become aware that it's not just some cult classic horror movie, and might actually be worth a watch. Interesting as hell.
The American psycho book shows Patrick’s separation from reality a lot more clearly also, he specifically mentions hallucinating things so in some ways he’s a lot more aware of his separation (not trying to be annoying and say the book was better 🙏 the movie is amazing)
I recently watched American Psycho 2 with my friend, and we kept anticipating Patrick coming back as a zombie, no joke, when the closet corpse showed up we screamed because we were hoping our stupid zombie Bateman joke was real
The ending of American Psycho heavily implies that it’s all in Bateman’s head and he actually hasn’t killed anyone. It also only makes sense if it is, there’s big clues in the movie such as when he kills that hooker with the chainsaw dropping it perfectly in position down the stairs and how the body in the apartment he left is gone or when he’s been chased by the helicopter on a shooting spree yet then nothing happens. Plus the big one being the guy who said he had lunch with Paul Alan. So AP2 already retcons that.
I was actually super interested in your film analysis of American Psycho, Drew. It was cool to see how much you care about it, and you explained your interest in a very intriguing way and actually made me wanna watch it. Would love to see you do more.
he stays healthy WHICH YOU CAN DO TOO WITH HELLO FRESH WHO IS THE SPONSER FOR THIS COMMENT ive been seeing a lot of hello fresh ads and it seems pretty cool thank you for reading
I love how he explained American Psycho vs the "sequel." I'm a die hard American psycho/Patrick Bateman fan. I didnt even know there was a "sequel" until like a year ago when i came across it on demand, I literally watched the opening scene and as soon at Patrick Bateman was killed by a child, I turned it off. After watching this, I'm stoked I didnt sit through it. I'm actually offended. Whyyyy even try to taint a masterpiece of a movie?
I'm confused because American Psycho has a legitimate sequel The Rules of Attraction staring James Vanderbeek as Patrick Bateman's younger brother. It was based on the book written by the same person who wrote American Psycho.
Well either way this isn't a sequel. It's another movie but they slapped the name on it. Don' think of it as a sequel because the movie doesn't deserve this terribleness. Although would it have been better if it wasn't a "sequel"?
"She killed 8 people, which we know of. Rachel Newman is one in a billion." *Somewhere, the real Patrick Bateman is sitting in class, profusely sweating, and on the verge of losing his mind* "Impressive."
I think you honestly missed an important part of American Psycho. Bateman started killing and torturing people because of the emptiness he felt. He tried incredibly hard to be visible with no avail, and he, to some extent, recognised that his life is just a facade to fit in with society.
I haven't seen Cube 1 but I've seen some of Hypercube and it made me very uncomfortable (not because it was really bad but because of the...body horror? Yeah I was young)
(5:55) as you’re describing how you interpret the movie you reminded me of a few scenes in Birds of Prey, the first one being Harley Quinn driving a truck into that place and her imagining a big beautiful colourful explosion; meanwhile in the cop lady’s perspective it was just a destructive explosion and fire.
My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.
American Psycho business card scene but instead of Patrick Bateman meticulously analyzing a perfect business card it's just Deku muttering while aggressively writing notes about it
Honestly I feel like if they hadn't made The Girl Who Would Not Die into a sequel it would have been so much better. Cheesy, sure, but the kind of cheesy we all like to watch, like Killer Klowns or My Bloody Valentine
@@Bobsaget121 sure but that's not why they said one in a million, they just wanted it to be dramatic not that they cared about how rare she might've been
The girl who doesn't die would be good if named as that. People would've actually liked the movie. Because they wouldn't have added some cringy parts. I don't know. Just assuming.
One of the biggest differences between AP and AP2 is tone. Bateman is unhinged but presents himself in such a pulled-together way that his 'high-functioning' psychosis goes undetected by his peers. He's stone-faced, he expresses the 'wrong' emotions, his logic is skewed and he will kill people in his way because he feels no remorse... he's not self-aware, he performs sanity and has no idea what is wrong with murder as long as he isn't caught. Meanwhile, Kunis' character seems to actually have a grasp of how divergent she is from the norm. She seems to understand that what she's doing is wrong. It's a tonal shift from the original on top of being a sound design, editing, directional, etc. failure... Good video. These movies aren't on everyone's radar (no doubt because they were such flops) so they seldom get the criticism they deserve.
@@acesolo I don't think you or the guy above you (Ultimate Despair ) understand what a "flop" means. A movie that flop doesn't mean the movie was bad, it mean the movie didn't make money (or lose money) at the box office. For example both Blade Runner 2049 and Kubo and the Two Strings are very good movies (some even say great movies) but both of them are huge flops. While I can't be sure if American Psycho is a flop (it made 34 million on a 7 million budget , 15 million from NA alone), it sure wasn't a financial hit.
remliqa It wasn’t a flop. I understand what a flop means, this isn’t 3rd grade remliqa. She used it in a negative tone, just comparing American Psycho to AP 2 non canon piece of shit is an insult to the original. To this day it still is attracting new viewers, it’s brilliant.
@@acesolo " These movies aren't on everyone's radar (no doubt because they were such flops) so they seldom get the criticism they deserve." Pretty sure 'these movies' is referring to the movies that are the topic of criticism in the video. Drew does nothing but praise AP, it doesn't make any sense that the antecedent in OP's sentence would be referring to AP and AP2 as a group when that sentence immediately follows a comment about the video.
Hi SquareSpace, I'd like to tell you that this is the first time I've actually viewed an entire ad of yours by a content creator on RUclips. You're not paying Drew enough for those impressions
You could literally just yell "YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND THE POINT OF THE MOVIE" over and over for the commentary of the first one and it would still be spot on.
How about the fact that with Troll 2 there was no Troll 1. It’s just called Troll 2 but it is not a sequel, also there are no trolls in it, only goblins.
It just so happens by some fuckin’ coincidence that there is a movie called Troll about a family called the Potters. One of them is named Harry. There are also a couple movies called Troll 3, believe it or not! The 3+ movies are not connected in any way whatsoever.
What I love in Bale's American Psycho was his first kill was not shown but was implied through a laundry then we get a glimpse of Christian Bale's amazing shift from a smiling to glaring as he exits the laundromat

Omg yes
American Psycho 2 just reinforces how badly the original movie was marketed, the trailers and the posters really wanted the general public to think it was some scary and twisted crime drama like Silence of the Lambs when in reality it was something different. I bet many people back then went in expecting a horror movie and were disappointed to see a bunch of bussiness card talk.
That is a brilliant point, I hadn't even considered that.
I mean it’s not like their was a small manuscript in which the movie used to inspire itself that got the message of it being mostly gumpy talk
This is completely true. I have never watched American Psycho and I thought it was everything you described. Only after I've seen this video have I become aware that it's not just some cult classic horror movie, and might actually be worth a watch. Interesting as hell.
@@Emu19
Let me guess you are one of these pretentious assholes that think horror movies can't be good movies.
@@Emu19 Have you watched it yet?
The American psycho book shows Patrick’s separation from reality a lot more clearly also, he specifically mentions hallucinating things so in some ways he’s a lot more aware of his separation (not trying to be annoying and say the book was better 🙏 the movie is amazing)
I love how he explain basically the entire movie and everything and then doesn’t even try with jingle all the way
A beautiful homage to the amount of time and effort put into these not sequels. Brilliant.
I want an American Psycho 3 where Patrick Bateman comes back from the grave to get revenge against Mila Kunis for killing him and ruining his legacy
Take my money
I recently watched American Psycho 2 with my friend, and we kept anticipating Patrick coming back as a zombie, no joke, when the closet corpse showed up we screamed because we were hoping our stupid zombie Bateman joke was real
@@uhhhsabrina9359 I wanna make a fanfic based of this and my comment

No, American Psycho 3 where they only make passing references ONLY to the sequel but the plot of the movie is completely unrelated to serial killers.
You know what American Psycho 2 is missing
A watermark
Omg, the first one had a watermark!
Don’t forget the sensible thickness
*E G G S H E L L W H I T E*
Hi um 999th like
The tasteful thickness of the first one’s script
The ending of American Psycho heavily implies that it’s all in Bateman’s head and he actually hasn’t killed anyone. It also only makes sense if it is, there’s big clues in the movie such as when he kills that hooker with the chainsaw dropping it perfectly in position down the stairs and how the body in the apartment he left is gone or when he’s been chased by the helicopter on a shooting spree yet then nothing happens. Plus the big one being the guy who said he had lunch with Paul Alan. So AP2 already retcons that.

Better humor than the entirety of American Psycho 2
i keep replaying that just for the crunchy audio
I love how he explained American Psycho vs the "sequel." I'm a die hard American psycho/Patrick Bateman fan. I didnt even know there was a "sequel" until like a year ago when i came across it on demand, I literally watched the opening scene and as soon at Patrick Bateman was killed by a child, I turned it off. After watching this, I'm stoked I didnt sit through it. I'm actually offended. Whyyyy even try to taint a masterpiece of a movie?
Jillybean I love your comment, but your spelling of “Psycho” gave me cancer. 😂

Honestly I couldn't stand American Psycho myself, but yeah this was still an insult to the original, hands down lol.
Art of Swords what was wrong with the first one i thought it was a amazing film
I'm confused because American Psycho has a legitimate sequel The Rules of Attraction staring James Vanderbeek as Patrick Bateman's younger brother. It was based on the book written by the same person who wrote American Psycho.
Well either way this isn't a sequel. It's another movie but they slapped the name on it. Don' think of it as a sequel because the movie doesn't deserve this terribleness. Although would it have been better if it wasn't a "sequel"?
"She killed 8 people, which we know of. Rachel Newman is one in a billion."
*Somewhere, the real Patrick Bateman is sitting in class, profusely sweating, and on the verge of losing his mind*
"Impressive."
Oh my god, it has a water mark...
Let’s see Rachel Newman’s card
Let's see Paul Allen killing 8 people
she became one in a billion for killing eight people, while bateman couldnt even become known after killing 40
OMG. She even has a water bed. 😶🌫️
I think you honestly missed an important part of American Psycho. Bateman started killing and torturing people because of the emptiness he felt. He tried incredibly hard to be visible with no avail, and he, to some extent, recognised that his life is just a facade to fit in with society.
I thought even that was kind of a lie, in the end (at least in the novel).
The therapist and one of the cops from American Psycho 2 were also in Cube 2: Hypercube. Another shitty "sequel".
Ugh, the original was so good and underrated, it did not deserve that god awful sequel.
Watch Pyrocynical talk about cube 2 it’s a super good breakdown of how terrible it is
At least Cube 2 is a “so bad it’s good” movie
I haven't seen Cube 1 but I've seen some of Hypercube and it made me very uncomfortable (not because it was really bad but because of the...body horror? Yeah I was young)
Only thing good about cube 2 is Todd howard

(5:55) as you’re describing how you interpret the movie you reminded me of a few scenes in Birds of Prey, the first one being Harley Quinn driving a truck into that place and her imagining a big beautiful colourful explosion; meanwhile in the cop lady’s perspective it was just a destructive explosion and fire.

My name is Patrick Bateman. I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial masque which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion. There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman. Some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me. Only an entity. Something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours, and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there.
Good job.

The girl who doesn't die would be good if named as that. People would've actually liked the movie. Because they wouldn't have added some cringy parts. I don't know. Just assuming.
Yeah it would of became a campy ass cult classic instead of one of the worst “sequels” of all time
Imagine if this sequel was a totally different video about Drew and Danny reacting to Hard Rock Nick again.
"american psycho 2 is a movie no one asked for"
and by the sound of it, also a movie that technically no one actually made
One of the biggest differences between AP and AP2 is tone. Bateman is unhinged but presents himself in such a pulled-together way that his 'high-functioning' psychosis goes undetected by his peers. He's stone-faced, he expresses the 'wrong' emotions, his logic is skewed and he will kill people in his way because he feels no remorse... he's not self-aware, he performs sanity and has no idea what is wrong with murder as long as he isn't caught. Meanwhile, Kunis' character seems to actually have a grasp of how divergent she is from the norm. She seems to understand that what she's doing is wrong. It's a tonal shift from the original on top of being a sound design, editing, directional, etc. failure... Good video. These movies aren't on everyone's radar (no doubt because they were such flops) so they seldom get the criticism they deserve.
Adrian James If you American Psycho is a flop then you have no taste in movies you fat bitch. Go back to watching “The Big Fish”
@@acesolo
I don't think you or the guy above you (Ultimate Despair
) understand what a "flop" means. A movie that flop doesn't mean the movie was bad, it mean the movie didn't make money (or lose money) at the box office. For example both Blade Runner 2049
and Kubo and the Two Strings
are very good movies (some even say great movies) but both of them are huge flops.
While I can't be sure if American Psycho is a flop (it made 34 million on a 7 million budget , 15 million from NA alone), it sure wasn't a financial hit.
remliqa It wasn’t a flop. I understand what a flop means, this isn’t 3rd grade remliqa. She used it in a negative tone, just comparing American Psycho to AP 2 non canon piece of shit is an insult to the original. To this day it still is attracting new viewers, it’s brilliant.
@@acesolo " These movies aren't on everyone's radar (no doubt because they were such flops) so they seldom get the criticism they deserve." Pretty sure 'these movies' is referring to the movies that are the topic of criticism in the video. Drew does nothing but praise AP, it doesn't make any sense that the antecedent in OP's sentence would be referring to AP and AP2 as a group when that sentence immediately follows a comment about the video.
