how are they the plastics? they hardly wear pink! and Mandi isn’t even intimidating like Regina, as if anyone at the school would bow down to Mandi.
@u dope Nah bro no thx lol
They are just popular girls not mean girls. And bullies. And color pink dosen't make mean girls plastics ~ 😊
@@HimeCookie Then why are they called Mean Girls if they're just popular anyway? They couldn't even get that part right
*intimidating. Also, I agree. Plus, their clothes make them look like 40 year old women and doesn't look like anything any teens I know would really wear.
@u dope Nah I'm good thanks 🤠
It's embarrassing that the movie is even connected to Mean Girls. Why couldn't it have been it's own thing? I would have disliked it less.
True, if it were just a generic movie, time might have been kinder to it. But nope, they just had to cash in on a trend!
It's literally its own thing except they needed a "name"
lol isn't this basically what julia cudney said in her video?
it's like a mean girls cheap rip off
Ngl imo mean girls was overrated af they were way more better disney channel movies then that movie.
honestly, if they changed the name, removed the swearing and 13+ jokes, it could have been a disney channel movie.
@Ks nah 13 year olds got better jokes than that
It's not?
It aired on Disney...that count?
the film is made of 4 disney channel stars
the first mean girls was a perfect example of how teenage girls ACTUALLY act and how they set themselves apart in high school in an effort to be "cool." the second one just feels like every other teen romcom written by a guy in his 50s who never spoke to a teenage girl a day in his life and remembers nothing about high school
Fr, the second movie is just straight up trash
This was actually directed and written by women lol
@@LeoJay I said "feels like" lol
@@LeoJay And?
Fun fact: did you know that Jo isn't like other girls? It's really subtle, but if you watch the movie closely, you'll pick up the subtle clues they drop.
What do you mean ???
wait really? woah
Wait what?? I think I missed those "subtle clues" that they dropped
Wow really ? I didn't notice it.
@RAKSHITHA AVINASH r/wooosh
The worst thing about Jo was how unlikeable she is, not even relatable
can't relate, I liked her as a kid 😂
Yeahhhhh
They want to make her a tough girl who rides motorcycles and wears leather jackets. But she rides a scooter...
But sHeS nOt lIkE oThEr gUrLS
@@morgianasartre6709 as a kid I wanted to be like Jo and other characters who were “edgy, tough, tomboys”. But now that I’m older and wiser I realized that they are just internally misogynistic brats. This isn’t to bash all girls who are tomboys or alternative. I just dislike girls who think their interests make them better than other people
I love how ironic it is how Jo is saying don’t be sexist yet actively being sexist toward her own gender. Like saying that you should “settle this like men” and using a football match as a way to settle things is both sexist toward men and women. Not every man plays football and not every women is “weak”, at least that’s how she implied it.
Hey nice profile pic
Exactly! Now, have the personality of a not-like-other-girls girl, but I never, NEVER will put down other girls.
The height of hypocrisy
PREACH it!
" girls arent so bad after all " bruh 💀
Kady- A normal girl with some kind of personality, relatable flaws, and actually likeable as a main character
Jo- I'M not like those other popular girls, I carve wood, and CARS, amirite? So obviously I'm MUCH better
This movie would have been so much better if it turned out that jo was actually just a lesbian and she loved Mandy and her internalized misogyny is actually internalized homophobia in disguise. Still could have sucked but the most important issue would be instantly fixed
@@Punk-possumthat’s so random 😭
@@Punk-possumi would actually watch that
Not to mention that Cady became a Plastic over time and unintentionally - she was so caught up with taking Regina down that she hadn’t realised she had not only pushed Regina out, but taken her place. In my opinion, one of the best scenes in the original is where Janis is arguing with Cady from Damian’s car during the house party and confronts her with the fact that she has become the type of person she so viscerally disliked. Even with the habit of lying to everyone for her own gain, even with the turning the Plastics against each other, and even dressed in pink with huge hoop earrings and a cute heart necklace, Cady doesn’t realise the fact that her whole attitude and personality has been influenced and changed for the worst until Janis, her former friend, tells it right to her face: “You are a _Mean Girl,_ Cady! You’re a _bitch!”_
This works flawlessly in the movie’s favour because at the start of the movie we’ve seen that Cady is just a quiet, shy, very intelligent but most of all genuinely kind, nice and caring girl - Janis infects her with the idea of sabotaging Regina until she spirals out of control, effectively becoming the new Regina. We see the growth, we feel the change.
In this movie, however, Jo goes from “not like the other girls, internalised misogyny, pickme one-of-the-boys” to dyed hair and using boys to hurt the Plastics. (Granted I have not seen the second movie, only this video from Alex Meyers, so bear with me.) We don’t experience her evolution, we don’t notice her corruption from a normal person into a dog-eat-dog alpha female because she was never that normal in the first place - she made a point of being different. Not to mention one of the movie’s biggest fails was preaching for gender equality only to undermine itself using its main character as a token of misogyny - pitting girls against each other!
@@Punk-possumtotally! Nikki and MacKenzie type relationship, don’t you think? I’d have loved to see that movie.
Jo is the literal definition of “I’m not like other girls”
Jo always me made me cringe tbh

@@nathanalbright "Its not gonna happan."
One of the biggest things about mean girls is that they were passive aggressive, they weren't visibly mean to people so that they could maintain their rep. They played mind games and pitted one another against each other. Not just some lame Disney plotline of the new 'cool tomboy' vs the popular girls
Mean girls: let’s have a dumb girl but actually make her likable
Mean girls 2: let’s have all the girls be dumb but make them annoying
“Means girl 2 is the worst movie I’ve ever seen”
Everyone: *WE KNOW*
Omg ikr-

Btw I’m your 200th like!😁❤️
Yep, and I've been denying that it exists for 10 years!
Trust me there’s worse or will be worse to come
Jeah I watched it on Netflix before they removed it and it was so terrible that I slowly lost faith (I knew it never would be as good as the original but at least expected something) until the "war" which was so ridiculous I shut of my TV and screamed "I can't" and never touched it again...
Remember in Mean Girls 1 where Janice was an "alternative girl" but she was just as bitchy and rude as the girly popular girls? That's a realistic high school character if I've ever seen one.
period
And Cady didn't fit in school at first, and it's *actually* awkward at first, and Cady isn't above Regina and sinks to her level a few times.
Yeah, that's what I like about Mean Girls, was that no character was discernibly "evil" or "good", they were real people who make mistakes, it's just that some make more mistakes than others. Janis is awful, but in a different way compared to Regina, and the film actually makes you feel bad for the villains, whereas in Mean Girls 2, the characters are so stereotypical and unsympathetic that you hate everyone just about equally.
@@SavouryGalette who are the villain?
@@freeeggs3811 Regina, Gretchen and Karen, but mostly Regina
Honestly I’ll never understand why they didn’t call the cops after Mandy and friends destroyed her dads engine. Like trespassing is probably the first thing they’d get charged with, and there’s a shit ton of witnesses in the coffee shop when she confessed to the whole thing
This is solid proof that not every amazing movie needs a sequel
Facts
"Ignore the pigtails. I was more naive back then"
Code for "I'm not like other girls, I'm a cool girl"
So in other words ignore Marinette. Got it!
@@FeligamiAdrizoeSworaBunnydoll lmao
It's extra dumb bc that's on a shot where she is working with her dad on a car. Wearing her hair like that is something she was supposed to do!
Seriously. Like "not allowed to be feminine AND tough wooooow"... 🥴
It pisses me off that basically all the Disney actors I like are in this movie. Sigh
@@FeligamiAdrizoeSworaBunnydoll Marinette would wash Jo and her "not like other girls-ness", she's a queen
I love how Hollywood acts like a girl raised by her dad will obviously be a tom boy and be able to build a vehicle from scratch by the time she's 12 smh.
I’ve met a single dad with two daughters, and he taught them basic domestic work/choirs, making them his little women. We often saw him taking his daughters to Girl Scouts, and they were the most behaved ones there. Not all dads raise tomboys.
(Though I’m not going to lie that my own father tried getting me into/buying me boyish stuff cause he wasn’t satisfied with two daughters and desperately wanted a son…)
💀
exactly my sister and I had a single dad and we aren't "tom boys" and weren't in hs either... lol
“I spent 2 minutes with my father, and now I can drive a motorcycle!!”
That’s like saying “Single moms often raise boys that become reliant on their moms so all of them can’t do anything and want to date someone like their mom.” We know it’s not true. But how can we get mad at single dads with girls and in the same breath praise single moms with boys? Single parenting is hard. Everyone get the fuck over it. Stop thinking all dads are bad parents and only moms can raise opposite sex kids right 😂 like yes. There’s benefits to being raised by an opposite sex parent. Being raised by a single dad meant for me, I knew how to protect myself, because he taught a us, he taught us how to load weapons and weapon safety, and he didn’t care if I wore men’s clothes or girls clothes or mix and matched.
I swear I hate the trope in teen movies where the adults won't lift a finger to do anything while the main character is getting mercilessly bullied and pranked, but as soon as they get tired of it and want to kick some ass, the adults spawn in like GTA cops
Unfortunately that's real life with most schools
Five star wanted level.
Okay, but.... Jo commenting on her 8 year old self with "Ignore the pigtails".... Is just so bizzare?? Does that mean they made a home movie of them fixing a car together and she watched it later on? Did she travel through time to comment on her hair? HOW can she comment on herself from 9 years ago? Wtf is this movie
The most annoying part of the movie for me was when Mandi threw her dog in the bin??? Hello?? I know that Mean Girls wasn't realistic but it still made SENSE majority of the time
don't get me started on how much the situation with Jo's friends dad was willing to pay her for being his daughters friend LMAOO

What was Mandy trying to do by telling the whole school that Jo’s a virgin? There is nothing wrong with waiting until you’re ready.
As if 95% of the rest of the student body weren't also virgins.
@@jimthar17 it’s such a double standard for high school girls. If you haven’t lost your virginity, you’re a prude. If you have, you’re a slut.
I love how the whole school staff ignores the fact that jo is supposed to be in jail and expelled at the same time because she challenged mandi to a football game
“If you haven’t seen this movie before; don’t bother.” Best advice ever!
i cant believe ive seen it more than once
I remember watching it as a kid and immediately regretting my decision. Yet I finished the movie anyway
Pahaha🤣🤣🤣
@@5bc500 hurry yyryry
I remember bits and pieces here and there, I watched it once and the only scene I could probably tell you about is that scene where everyone was wearing paint stained clothes because Jo was wearing paint stained clothes. I think that's the only scene in this movie that was kinda okay
That bullied girls parents: money wont solve her problems.
Also the bullied girls parents: Lets pay this teenager to be her friend so she feels better and solves her friends.
To be fair, the mom just said she needed friends, the dad was the one who decided to pay the MC money to be their child's friend.
Problems. Solves her problems*
@@loserme414 came here to say this. I don't think her mom knew, I think that's why she welcomed her in with open arms the way she did, she had no idea and if she had she would've been very upset
it was the dad that wanted it to solve with money (he also paid the "friend"). The mother said that money won't solve the problem
She's apparently the most bullied person in their school. Plus she doesn't have friends. As if superficial teenagers will harass the richest kid in school.
I'm perplexed how they could attempt to make a movie with a "feminist" message while being so blatantly misogynistic at the same time. The movie is absolutely hateful towards anything feminine and does nothing but make a mockery of teen girls unless they act more masculine. So ironic and ridiculous
The first movie was to embrace being feminine but also being your actual self while this one is just “girl bad be like boy 🤓”
Yeah, straight up misogynistic
“I’m not like other girls”
Other girls: “same”
Fr tho
*like the other girls intensifies*
Billie eillish : joined and left the chat :/
Literally all this movie does is say “hyper feminine bad” “Tom boy good and unique” The amount of internalized misogyny that Jo has is so sad
literally "screw being ladies and screw being girls...we're gonna settle this like men" like what? What is this show trying to say to a young female audience?!
The first Mean Girls expressed that all interests are valid, and girls are all beautiful people who should get along.
Someone's getting some good use out of that gender studies degree I see.
@@momomomocensoredbyyoutube9085 someone's triggered by being outside his incel safe space too long and being forced to think, I see.
Truth. And the pick-mes and the dudebros can get over it.
Wasn't the whole point of Mean Girls that the main character was a fish out of water? Having this girl a regular attendee of countless High School (and literally too cool for school) makes no sense.
Teen movies really be acting like being a virgin is so awful. I'd literally be glad
The first movie was like "Accept your true personnality"
This one is "Be more like boys"
And it's actually damaging
And how can you be like boys it's so stereotyped
Watched all these kinds of movies when I was like 6. I felt so bad because I was basically one of 'the other girls' so I tried to change myself a lot. Even now, it's a mentality it's taken me a long time to change it. The 'I'm not like other girls mindset SUCKS
That is EXACTLY what I was thinking
Yeah especially when she challenged mandi to a football game like this movie is so stupid
@@cm9666 YES, the quirky girl media needs to die, it doesnt make girls feel ok with liking other things, it makes them ashamed to like “girly” things and to not be who they really are and its shit

I love how the movie just ignores what happened in the original. The sequel was an insult to the original, the original was actually so iconic.
Edit: apparently wearing leather jackets and black boots makes you different from ‘other girls’
to be fair, it's one thing to be a tomboy, but even among them, how many girls in high school did you see wearing that?
“It’s like a bad Disney Channel movie.” pretty much with 4 of the 5 main characters played by former Disney Channel actresses and the movie premiered on ABC Family a TV channel owned by Disney.

This whole movie is ''I'm not like other girls. I don't like pink.''

@@Pukeprincess he was a Nascar mechanic, though. So they moved around a lot for the races. It is an actual thing.
The most jarring part of this movie was that the cuts between shots in the same scene never lined up. Alex managed to capture a few of those moments. In the shop class scene it looks like she straight up teleported closer and then farther away.
I'm more confused as to how the writers considered this a Sequel despite having nothing to do with the Original. The Point of a Sequel is to expand upon the groundwork that the Original laid out. They would have been more accurate to label this as a Reboot.

The original Mean Girls was distinguished and original. Mean Girls 2 is the "I'm not like other girls" of movies.
The whole movie irritated me, but 2 things stuck out:
1) In what world would a rich girl like Abby be hated by the entire school? Even if she wasn’t necessarily popular, wouldn’t she at least have a few friends and kinda fly under the radar?
2) I can’t believe this movie had the mean girls committing crimes. Regina, Gretchen, and Karen were mean, but they never broke the law.
and the main conflict between Abby and Mandi was the fact that,,, Abby's family had more money? Like how did Mandi find out, google their net worth??? Because Abby got better things for her bdays??? Sorry girlie maybe it's not the money but your parents idk...
yeah.
A pretty, white, rich girl is the loser of the school that everyone bullies.... very realistic.
honestly, I'm pretty naive and stuff and I usually dislike quite a few people as long as they're ''evil'' but even though Regina, Gretchen, and Karen weren't the nicest people I didn't find myself really disliking them that much for some reason
however I really didn't like the ones in that movie that much-
Yeah that first one makes 0 sense....
The "I'm not like other girls" is part of internalised misogyny, which is sadly presented to teenage girls in movies like that. :/
It also pushes the idea that girls should appeal more to guys, seek their approval and all...plus ofc downgrading femininity which is just bs
I’d also say that it implies that being a girl generally equals being feminine which isn’t the truth at all
Its litterally just a child wanting to be special, its not political.
I was bullied in school by those "other girls" so I hated them, it has nothing to do with misogyny or seeking approval of men lol
False.
Its a line used to falsely make a female MC look relatable.
If they were Gothic, punk, or emo, it would fit. NOTHING to do with this imaginary connection to feminism or misogyny.
A NASCAR engine goes for between 50 and 80k. No one would have faulted her for breaking that girl's legs.
The original mean girls was mean but they did mostly psychologically shit but this movie is filled with stuff that would definitely count as actual crimes…
So this movie is so bad, a lot of us didn't even know it existed
Oh hello sir seeing you after a while
it do be like that
You are officially the new Justin Y.
Heard of it but never thought it would have a new cast-

For a movie trying to be all about female empowerment and feminism, it's actually really sexist and misogynistic 😂
Im sorry...female empowerment? Whoever thought that was on crack
Its a 9*cking comedy!
@David Hernandez Wait, what? When did I blame men for it?
@David Hernandez That's just the word used to describe prejudice against women. That doesn't mean that all men are misogynistic. Some women can be misogynistic, too. Like the whole "not like other girls" trope. Which is what this movie was going for. I don't even know who made the movie nor do I care what sex they are. I was criticizing the movie, not men.
@David Hernandez I never said we are oppressed. I don't consider myself a victim and hate that kind of mentality. I think you've misunderstood something and are way too emotionally invested to listen to reason. Idk why you're talking about slavery and stuff, you're going way off tangent. All I was saying was that the movie sucked. I suggest you try to cool off a bit.
Alll I could think is “is that Tess from camp rock?”
Cady and regina would'v destroyed mandy and jo in the most creative way possible i just know it
Cady: a character with an interesting and unique upbringing, relatable flaws, a strong character arch, who is neither “good” nor “bad” but simply a regular girl making mistakes as she navigates a new environment at a young age, portrayed by the gifted talent that is Lindsay Lohan.
Jo: I’m not like other girls so I’m good. Popular girly girls are BAD. Pick me tho cause I do wood shop and fix cars!!!!
bro your replay made my day
Pretty much yeah
Perfect summary 👌
And fixing the fight by football match like men do (according to her) will solve everything. 🙂
I don't like Cady but I defo prefer her over Jo
Regina George had a certain truth to her character with her rage, her worrying home life and her subtle micro-aggressions and manipulations. Mandy is just a Saturday morning cartoon villain.

I’d agree except that it’s less of a parody and more of a crappy ripoff.
"Not like most girls" is just a toxic cliche that movies still serve to pit girls against one another. By saying that, you lump most girls into some lump stereotype and say that you not adhering to that makes you special and better. Instead of actually embracing self confidence and uniqueness. Utter BS.
Exactly. By putting other women down like that, it just furthers the idea that women are a monolith. All girls are the same, the only way we can be complex autonomous people with minds of our own is OBVIOUSLY by shitting on other women and acting "more masculine," right? Just a nasty narrative.
It is so toxic- ever since I was little I thought it was a bad thing to be girly and feminine cause i had to be "different"
@@karensmith8911 how is your perceptions now?
@@broneedstoshutup I am so sorry that happened to you... That's really trashy of them to judge you over the preferance tbh, And I hope they are either not in your life rn or they have changed their outlook on things. I hope you enjoy your style and you find people who will appreciate and accept that and even if they don't, that's what you like, F- their opinion 😤. You are gorgeous and amazing the way you are, And you should only change your style when you want to, as it's totally your choice... 💖
@@broneedstoshutup I AM REALLY HAPPY FOR YOU 😤💖
These kind of movies drive me nuts! So I grew up in a small town where I went all 12 years with the same kids. So when a new kid came in, we all knew they were the odd man out right away so everyone was nice to them because normal humans (even teen girls) are not scumbags and care about people!
The other girls trope where most girls feel "not like other girls" to me speaks to the fact that femininity as an ideal is so high that most of us don't feel we're in it. And also that most of the time it's an idea of what guys like, which we feel is not us. Thus these characters feeling relatable
The "movie" isn't even a sequel or a continuation of the original story, it's just a cheap Disney channel humor knock off
and the pincipal's actor is the same, they also made like 1 reference to the original /it was something like how teachers are not allowed to be alone with students, since that one girl had an affair with the pe teacher in the first one/
I think that is what happens when middle age men try to do a teen girl movie...

This movie should have been in the Burn Book

This movie isn’t good enough to be in the Burn Book. All the people who participated in it ought to be though.
Lol fr tho
Totally

15:04 it is 2:35 in the morning and i am holding back a dying animal screech of laughter
Me just now realizing that Jo is the mean girl from Camp rock...I'm done bro...
“Settling this like men”= Football game???
I kinda think the “manly” way would have been a fistfight in the second act and then everyone has beers together by the end.
Exactly, my high school was basically boys only, we would fight a lot but by the end of the day we would make up, apologize and are still friends after half a decade
@@Abba_Fan Straight facts👍 Most people aren’t just evil jerks out to ruin everyone’s good time. They just need a good bop to the mouth to cut the bullshit.
This is highschool not legally aged adults.
@@Tyler171819 exactly, kids don't really understand the weight of words, the talking only becomes effective once they age a bit, like after graduating I don't think I have had a single fight in 6 years, most of my problems were solved by talking with the other person
a football game doesn't mean its manly its also for girls . Seriously this movie is so bad

“It’s like a bad Disney Channel movie.” Accurate considering 4 of the 5 main characters are former Disney Channel actresses. And the other was on Nickelodeon 😂
This really does feel like the worst of Disney Channel and your typical (bottom-of-the-barrel) Nickelodeon show/movie (no pun intended on Nickelodeon Movies, btw)! After all, subsidiaries of The Walt Disney Company (ABC Family) and Viacom (Paramount Famous/Home Entertainment and Nickelodeon overplaying Mean Girls 2 over the original on their godforsaken network) both had it!
@@kieranstark7213 Paramount pretty much produced and distributed the film while Disney pretty much just aired the film on ABC Family (now called Freeform) and had no involvement on the film whatsoever. So it’s technically a film by Paramount that Disney picked up the rights to air it on their network.
True, but I’d still count it as a Nickelodeon movie (alongside being a Disney movie) because it just feels so much like one.
@@kieranstark7213 not really tho. Just because Viacom owns Paramount and Nickelodeon doesn’t mean it’s a Nickelodeon movie since it appeals to be a teen movie with PG-13 content that Nickelodeon wouldn’t really air. It probably must’ve aired on Nick at Nite (their late night block similar to Adult Swim on Cartoon Network) if that’s what your saying.
Yeah, makes sense, I guess that’s the closest MG2 would get to being part of Nickelodeon by an objective standpoint. Then again, same could be said about so many other sequels that fail at being them and remakes that exist to fix what wasn’t even broken!
the fact that the plastics has no character development is a major epic fail, and they have shallow personalities
Mean Girls 1 is like trying a great new food for the first time. Mean Girls 2 is like when it gives you a stomach virus that hurts your stomach but also constipates you so you can't even crap to stop the pain.
I feel like Karen Smith wrote this sequel during a 45 minute study hall.
Karen Smith feels smart after watching this movie
karen smith could've written an even better sequel
Nah Karen can write better than this
Karen could do better than this lol
Nah even Karen isn't this dumb
I hate this “most girls” bullshit that every Netflix teen movie or most teen movies has surrounding it. Seriously, every girl is unique. They have their own personality. You can’t just group them into being nice or mean or ugly or pretty. Being different from other girls is exactly what you’re supposed to be. So being quirky isn’t a superior trait. It’s just a trait...
Also wow, first time I got so many likes! Definitely made my day. Thanks everyone 😁
@UCby-ZuC7DOb_s65YR4fiI9w Maybe back then trashing on the "popular pretty girls" was a good way to make gender norms commentary. However, now I think it's extremely backfired and society is at the point in which being feminine just isn't ok? Like God forbid a girl can be smart pretty and confident. It's like in all these stupid movies a girl can't just be all three, she had to be one or the other. Also, the fact that the unique girls (aka tomboys) are given so much spotlight defeats the purpose of attempting to make them the norm. If you're a tomboy that shouldn't be a big deal, who actually cares? These kinds of movies also pin women against each other which to me personally is kind of disgusting and out dated.
Pretty sure this been a thing waaaaay before Netflix was a streaming servuce
If you have to say you’re not like other girls, you’re a lot more like them than you realize. A real king doesn’t have to say he’s the king.
@@KTSpeedruns right!
I love the song most girls by Hailey Steinfeld! It embodies the opposite message of this movie
its so funny how the most replayed part in this video is the end of the sponsorship ad.
2:55 oh the irony
You know she's not like "oTheR" girls when she wears leather jackets
And also drives a motorcycle
Do not forget the messy hair and lack of makeup!!! How else are we supposed to know she’s quirky!!
I think that is what happens when middle age men try to do a teen girl movie XD

As someone who wears leathers jackets I’m offended
@@Name-tn1zg guess ur not like other girls lol
I hate how in high school movies they always think that never having a boyfriend, first kiss and or being a virgin is a bad thing. At least in my high school experience, people were actually shamed if they weren’t virgins or had different boyfriends . Like be realistic here.
It’s American movie. High school experience is waaaaayyyyyy more different
In my school literally nobody cared. Everyone was dealing with their own stuff.
@@killjoyer yeah I am American born and raised so again this is really unrealistic. Nobody in my school cared about this information at all lol.
@@ToriTheDormouse yup exactly! I went to a school with over 2,000+ people and I barely knew half of the schools population because I didn’t have time nor did I care too. I was living in my own world and just wanted to graduate.
@@ToriTheDormouse same here
I'm laughing at the person who seems to be looking through binoculars watching Jo and her dad talk lol 8:45
I would’ve liked a mean girls 2 about regina’s little sister. I think it would be interesting to see her enter highschool late 2000s-early 2010. It could be from the plastics pov or she could be like cady. Regina could help her climb the social ladder and become the new queen bee.
Or even an origin story for the plastics in middle school.
My thoughts on the characters:
Jo: Her ENTIRE personality is “ I’M NoT LiKE oThER GiRLs” and unlike Cady she’s unrelatable and unrealistic
Mandi: A SUPER unrealistic girl bully. She was written like stock photo of a mean girl, she’s rich, a brat, and has *bad* fashion sense.
Chastity and Hope: They each have ONE character trait, but they don’t really have a point in the plot so they’re let off.
If they turned the last line in this scene 14:47 into “So let’s settle this like women.” it would seem less sexist.
Also other side note: This seems like a disney channel dupe that “CoNsERvaTiVe PaREnTS” say is the best mean girls-type movie their kids can watch.
Mean Girls 2: Okay, we are against sexism.
Also Mean Girls 2:
"I'm not like other girls!"
"Let's not settle this like girls, we settle this like men."
They just further perpetuate to the issue than overcoming it.
YES! This annoyed me
finally someone said it
Ugh, reminds me of “menocidal” movies like Charlie’s Angels (2019) and Black Widow (2021), if you know what I mean.
@@kieranstark7213 Almost all moves seem to be that way now. Men are depicted as evil, or they're bumbling, incompetent idiots. Women run the show, women comprise most of the characters, women do everything they can to make the men look weak and ineffective at everything, and yet there is no character growth. Their entire personality is "see how strong and brave I am." One of many reasons why movies suck.
@@ElveeKaye Nickelodeon has been doing that for years with Schneider’s Bakery shows which people just love to defend because of nostalgia, Butch Hartman shows (in The Fairly OddParents, they treated Timmy Turner like the bad guy every time he tried to run away from girls staking him (romantically or platonically) from Tootie to Vicky to Trixie Tang to Chloe Carmichael to Mrs. Turner to Wanda), Nickelodeon Movies (The Last Airbender, Playing With Fire, the kid-2010s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles duology, Fun Size (I have a theory that every time Nickelodeon cast Victoria Justice in stuff, it was a way to originally cast Jennette McCurdy as the same characters she would play just to shut her out as much as ever until they make Sam Puckett the new protagonist of Victorious after Tori Vega in Sam & Cat), Hey Arnold: The Movie (Hey Arnold! could be one of the least as Nickelodeon shows… whenever it does the right things like have emotional encounters between Arnold and some adults… but then comes Helga Pataki with her obsessive crush on him and nobody trying to stop it and think that if he did it, everyone, even Helga herself, would think he’s the rapist) and the Rugrats trilogy (the show and the movies, though the seconds, All Grown Up and Rugratsbin Paris, would have to be the best of the worst)
Villainizing stereotypically feminine qualities (such as wearing dress, liking the colour pink, being interested in fashion or make-up) is textbook internalized misogyny.
Look at all the movies back in the 2000’s that demonized anyone who was stereotypically “girly”
@@ihvojd Exactly! No wonder pick-mes evolved from that, when they are told over and over to be “feminine” and to like “ feminine things” is bad and/or lesser.
feels like the 30/40ish hollywood authors wanted to get back at the girly girls
@@ihvojd Its ok we get it, still happens today.
I get where you're coming from ,but dude this sounds like you copied and pasted . 😑 I don't really think it's misogyny , these kinds of girls are the ones that bullied the misfits , which is why it appears so often in books etc .
wait...when she squeezes that cup full of milkshake or whatever...that's 100% not the actresses hand?!?!
7:20 nice sonic background, so vintage!
What school does Jo go to where EVERYONE has their own car? I knew a whopping 3 people who had their own car and two of them were teachers.
I'm in college and most of the people in my classes don't have a car 😩
It depends. Went to high school in most of the southeast and college in Louisiana and Georgia and EVERYONE had cars. Typically if you don't live in a large city with lots of Public transportation, you have a car. At least in the states.
im european and here people get their driving license when they are 18 so very few people actually drive to school and only last year, like in my class half of the people were trying out for the driving exam but also some didnt pass it, some didnt have cars, only licenses, some's parents didnt let them drive alone, some lived on a walking distance...
@@Orion_TheyThem Live in Texas and can confirm about a majority of students in the South having cars. Our high school does offer bus transportation, but usually athletic and band kids have to arrive earlier than everybody else so they usually have cars. There’s also driving off campus to get to different buildings for different classes, events or leaving early to get home.
edit: would also like to add that in Texas, you can get your permit by age 15 and I think your license.
My high school was primarily rich kids and everyone that didn’t come from my neighborhood (the low-income students) had a car by the time they were 16 and had their license.
so Mandi got Jo’s dad FIRED and literally got her EXPELLED and they decide to settle it with…..a football game?!
If only it had ended with a John Wick style killing spree. At least then we would’ve gotten to witness the deaths of all the tools in this movie.
And the dad getting fired part is that even legal? Why didn't she call the police? And she was trespassing
oh see it's because jo is not like other girls and she doesn't like pink oh yeah that explains it all
Right? Like at that point we’re fightin!
@@jacksongibbs8998 give us a time machine so you can direct it
4:19 wait, I’m confused as to why he assumes she doesn’t know how to build a birdhouse. They’re _both_ in WOODWORKING CLASS. Don’t they TEACH you this stuff? Isn’t that the whole _point?_
Unless it was meant to be an actual sexist move of “oh, you’re probably not into this thing, you can decorate it instead” instead of genuinely thinking she doesn’t know what to do? Idk
its these type of movies that give girls a label of either weak or "overdramatic"
