    Spy Kids and Sharkboy and Lavagirl were always some of my favorite movies as a kid and honestly I’m so glad kids nowadays are still able to experience them in a similar way. Kids need to have media made for them that doesn’t treat them like they’re infants but also doesn’t treat them like teens or adults. Sometimes kids just want movies that are fun adventures that never talk down to them and show that, hey kids have a little power too!
    Those movies have aged horribly, but does that even matter when they’re still fun adventures that don’t take themselves seriously?

    Different perspective here as a female spy kids enjoyer; full disclosure haven't seen the reboot and probably won't as a grown person but, so many kids movies with brother-sister duos have the "good girl who does no wrong" and even as a kid it was tiring. I liked the original spy kids because Carmen was kind of an asshole at times and wasn't just "the good one fixing problems". More sibling kids movies where the girl is the problem lmao

    The more "realistic", less cartoony route was probably the safest decision for the reboot. I work with elementary school kids (mainly 3rd graders, who were born in *2015* if you can belive it) and they all grew up with really good CGI, they're way more keen on what does and doesn't look "right" than how we were as kids. Hell, I was talking to a bunch of kids about how the original godzilla movies were made with miniature cities and showing them pictures and this eight year old popped up about how physical props look better than CGI (which I agreed with, but damn I did not think about those things as a kid).
    I do love the cartoony style of spy kids, and while I totally think making effects that look both cartoony and believable is something that can absolutely be done, that's a balance that needs care - especially when targeting kids that were raised on modern marvel movies and are way more cued into what does and doesn't look "right" than we ever were.
    So while it's not my favorite, I totally get why they'd go in this direction and I hope it pays off. And if it gets sequels.... Fingers crossed for maybe a little more color in their spy gear going forward lol

    Personally I think Spy Kids 4 should have been a full reboot instead of a soft reboot/sequel because there was no reason for it not to be other than nostalgia. However I'm glad this is a full reboot instead of a continuation and although I don't really for it because it reminds me to much of the previous movies AND The Adventures of Shark Boy & Lava Girl, I hope a few more movies get made and they start to do their own thing without relying too much on the previous movies.

    3:56 when you mentioned the bad guy using a game sounds similar to Spy Kids 3 where they used a game to keep the players sucked in. Also the fact the kids not knowing the parents are spies can be from Spy Kids 1 (3:46). This would show that they kept some of the aspects from the franchise and sort of merged it into this movie.

    Also, I disagree. The second was the greatest. When all the kids were beating a** at the banquet! Then later when Carmen and Juni were fighting the skeletons! And they were competing with the Giggles siblings! I loved it.
    I also disagree that the third movie looks bad in 2d. When I watch it I'm still in awe today - but I definitely have a bias towards Spy Kids. When everyone from their past comes to help save the day from Sylvester Stallone, I always hoot and holler. You can't tell me anything bad about Spy Kids.

He likes to work with the smallest budget he can on purpose and stretch every dollar as far as possible to innovate camerawork and himself/crew/actors. The end result and feel of it is something I think people either like or don't lol his very first film he spent 7k and it made a few mil, but that was before he was famous. His budgets are much bigger now but he still likes to work small.

    I love watching your videos and hearing your input! I absolutely LOVED the second spy kids and it’s still a classic (in my opinion) to this day. I totally agree with what you said about how people don’t want to accept anything that’s new for a rebooted franchise when we are clearly not the target audience for that intended film (unless marketed as otherwise). For example, with the new iCarly, I would argue that - with that specific reboot - yes, it’s for the audience that grew up with that show. Everything else, they’re trying something new. People who get so hurt over reboots when they’re not marketed towards them … it’s not that deep 🤣🤣
    Also Robert Rodriguez is like the only notable alumni from the high school I graduated from so I’ll mention that to people every now and then just because 🤣

    I think it's an incomplete argument to say "That was your _____, this is their ______", as if the two versions are mutually exclusive, especially for a kid. In this era when everything is at a click of a distance, they can enjoy it in the same way, because they won't really care about the bits of generational differences, just having a good time.
    Even I really loved, and still do, movies like Back to The Future and I didn't say "This isn't my SiFi" or played Super Mario World when I had my Xbox 360 saying "This isn't my game generation".
    However, criticism is important to get quality products. Reboots, remakes, whatever, they all need to at least give you something at the end and enjoy the ride, it's what we should focus on.

    I loovved the originals as a kid and have watched them, 4, and 5 with my daughter (7) now. We rewatched them all again with this one two days ago, but skipped 4 lol we'll go back and watch it..eventually :p So it's been a while since I've seen 4, but i feel like i liked this one better than that one- but the first three were perfect in my nostalgic mind, especially the first. When i was like 9 i went to school with my hair slicked straight back with allllll of the gel my hair would hold and a leather vest thinking that i was a bada*s spy kid and I...what was I talking about?
    Oh right...the credits of 5 made me have a mini panic attack when i realized the director's tiny little kid wrote and produced it with him because....he's an adult now, which made me feel old. I cried and laughed while looking at my kid and telling her how old i was to which she comedically panicked and said, "ahhh! Pull yourself out of it dam* it! Snap out! You're 187! Why do you keep thinking you're only 31?"
    Again. 7.
    Idk where she heard that or how she came up with the witty bit so quick but I stopped crying to correct her real quick- I am only 31.

    I feel like people aren't fully comprehending that this movie is NOT intended for the people who grew up with the original trilogy, like us. Of course people our age aren't going to like it: we're like, double the age of the target audience.
    It's the total opposite of the new Indiana Jones movie. Kids watched and enjoyed the originals, and the new one is meant for those same people who enjoyed the original movies; it is not intended for children today, who have no experience with the other movies. It's meant for the same generation. This Spy Kids IS intended for children today and NOT the people who enjoyed the originals; it's meant for the new generation, not us.
    Times change, generations' interests change, and people grow up. Adults might find kids' media stupid because...we're not kids anymore. Kids probably find adult media dumb as well, because they're not the target audience.

    always hate the " its a kids movie its not meant for adults " argument
    when people have kids they sit and watch the movie with them most of the time
    so the content has to be something competent to some extent
    not to mention the whole point of using the same i.p most of the time is so the the adult sees a familiar name and gauges it as something appropriate for their child to consume
    content meant for teaching kids how to read and write etc is probably the only time where it is actually solely for children

    I didnt even compare this one to the original franchise, because the nostalgia is too strong, i knew i would be biased, i compared it with we can be heroes because it’s Robert’s most recent work, and i actually like we can be heroes, so i knew if i had issues with this movie it wouldn’t be nostalgia based. It’s really just the way it looks that didn’t do it for me, like personally i love the kitchy bad cgi green screen look of all his kids movies, it’s the main appeal for me, just that he was doing something unapologetically fun and for kids. And so since this one looked all dark, drab and boring, (except for the final video game level that was fun at least) it just killed the whole thing for me. But like you said this isn’t for me, it’s for kids, and i agree with you, i liked the sibling dynamic in this one, it was a nice change, they were pretty equal, it was cute. The parents were definitely there. As someone who watches a lot of kids content, I personally wouldn’t rewatch this one, but that’s just me

    I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this new spy kids movie. The 2 things that really stuck out to me was, first, how grey it was. Everywhere they go nearly was so black and grey and boring to look at. Even the bad guys. The ending was the best part for me because it had the colours of the first movie. Even the house was grey. Which brings me to the second thing, set design. The first movie was so lived in and clearly each set was designed with such love and joy, and that was not present here. It really does take away from the whole.
