This movie got targeted with a copystrike! Please giv it some love even if you saw the reaction
Okay and that sucks that some things get Copyrighted 😭😭😭
Can you guys react to the Disney film Strange World? It’s actually a really good movie you’ll enjoy it
I'll leave what I recall from the question you guys had the first time it was posted the video: my fav and underrated animated movie from this year is Nimona, it was a movie developed by Blue Sky until Disney bought the studio and closed it for good. Then Annapurna Pictures got the rights and finished the film. Currently it is on Netflix 💜
@@dextiemarieThey might be busy reacting to other animated movies from DreamWorks, Netflix, Sony, WB, etc.. so it’s going to be a while till James and Nobu react to some Disney and especially Pixar movies again on the channel, not to mention they rely on the Patreon to vote for the next movie.
Come to think of it it’s been a year a 4 months since their last reacted to a Pixar movie through _Wall•E_ and 11 months since they reacted to a Disney animated movie through _101 Dalmatians_
CAN YOU WATCH THE LIVE ACTION SERIES OF "ONE PIECE"? 🙂❤
Even with ALL the ridiculous jokes, this is one of the MOST accurate to the original lore adaptation in the modern era. Like, every time they reference something in the lore I'd point at the screen and smile like I RECOGNIZE THAT! Thank the animators and writers for making this movie. It's really good, for someone who grew up on the lore, this is very very good.
Although there is one (1) nitpick that bother me. Monkey is supposed to be the FIRST follower of the monk. So technically there shouldn't be Piggy and the water demon there. It should be the monk alone. However, I understand that is supposed to help the westerners draw the dots. So it's good.
I just watched it and really appreciate it. I have been growing up watching the monkey king range from the original to all kind of versions. Sticking to the original lore just makes me feel really happy cause this should be story to the westerners and I just don't want any change.
Any adaptation of _Journey to the West_ is bound to be good. The animation and fight scenes are done so well here. And I love all the details of Chinese culture they have.
This takes place before Journey To The West
@@peterkim3370 According to Overly Sarcastic Production's summary of "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong's origin story takes place in the first seven chapters of the book, and therefore considered part of the story.
ruclips.net/video/61nuXrvqNgI/видео.htmlsi=f00gStWCCN2QgH1s
@@peterkim3370 I would say this covered about less than one fifth of the novel that it was based on.
The entire journey starts at about chapter 20
@@clairelin0216 and we haven’t even started with when he changed his origin and name and turned to hinduism and helped Rama. Wait till we get to that chapter
@@peterkim3370 And the chapter where he talked to the horse to ask for his pee to add to medicine because it was technically dragon pee and apparently that means it can cure anything lol.
If you guys want a summary of the original story of Monkey King, I suggest watching Overly Sarcastic Productions' summary of "Journey To The West".
I saw this 2 weeks ago and I absolutely enjoyed it. It was a great laugh and I have seen it 2 it twice more since.
Now I want to throw you down the rabbit hole and have you watch Lego Monkie kid it has The Monkey King noting the speed of the wind, the moister in the air, 37 emails from his lawyer, the first 18 seasons of Monkie King the animated series, and a resonance from his soul while he contemplates the fact that he's an immortal being WHO WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO DIE. It also has a JoJo reference and the voice of Son Goku as Sun Wukong.
I know your _TURBO_ reaction which was set for today was pushed to Next Sunday but depending on which animated movie reaction comes next following _TURBO_ I recommend you will react to the following Halloween-themed spooky animated films in the month of October such as _Igor, Wendell & Wild, The Addams Family_ animated films and _Monster House,_ the latter film with Hailey & Stella involved.🎃👻
Finally it would be nice if you react to the _Hotel Transylvania_ films but due to the space in October I definitely wouldn’t mind if you save them for later.
You want a REAL underated Monkey Movie?
Curious George (2006)!!!
Reupload?
Man, Copyright laws are stupid.
I haven't watched the series as of yet to see whether or not it is a decent representation but a few years ago Netflix also released a live action telling of A Journey to the West called The New Legends of Monkey. My kids and I loved this movie and it helped them ask more questions about lore and other stories involving Buddha
If you're looking for more Journey to the West series I highly recommend Lego Monkie Kid, it's kind of like a fan epilogue but it's really good and makes a lot of references to the original texts.
You two need to see the others monkey king movies there are so good for example:
The monkey king reborn.
Monkey king: hero is back.
There´re also animated movies.
And if you can watch The God Of Highschool an animated series really good, but the manwha is better.
My only complaint is that they didn't refer to him as Sun Wukong because that's what I knew him as when I played Smite years ago. Otherwise, I enjoy the story and the film is really great.
Would love to see ya'll check out the White Snake and Green Snake animated movies! They're similarly based off Chinese fables and animated by a Chinese studio. The animation is also well done(especially in Green Snake, which is the newer one). I especially enjoyed Green Snake, there were a lot of really interesting/unexpected twists. I don't think you necessarily have to watch White Snake to be able to watch Green Snake either so you can watch in any order :>
Unrated film of the year but a super awesome one! The animation is amazing. Especially when Monkey King 👑 is Giant Godzilla
I hope they make a Monkey King series or sequel.
I'd love to see a reaction on "The Last Unicorn" (1982)- one of my favourite animated movies, and rarely shows up in discussions about animation media which I think is a real shame
Super fun reaction thanks guys!
I watched it a couple of days ago and I thought it would be something else but I found it really well with the characters interaction and yes the animation was amazing
You guy need to watch Wallace and Gromit movies
In the original novel, it was said that when the Monkey King was born and opened his eyes, his eyes shone like beans of light that got to the heavens above, the first scenes are referring back to this moment.
I grew up not really caring for monkey king or journey to the west but ever since this movie came out ive invested into the lore and story for this long so far (i bought the book and a stick (more on that later) and chinese myths & legends collections 😭
at first i felt this was kinda cringe with the occasional jokes but every dumb five there's one that completely floors me (dang dynasty & jade emperor's roof most notably, but i love the fact JE troubles from monkey is a running gag), i did roll my eyes at the typical cocky character + betrayal plot and felt the family thing wasnt really earned, but the end did make me tear up so they did that right! i love that this adaptation completely isolates monkey, and the only consistent love he has in his life is stick of all things! stick is the best character for doing whatever he wants (so long monkey permits) and enabling monkey. it was really fast paced which really threw me on my first watch but after 100 times meh it actually slows down cause of the scenes i feel weren't the best they could've been. and i absolutely agree dragon king would've been so cool if he was portrayed and taken more seriously! its just downplayed by monkey regardless
none of that matters too much overall imo cause the 2D sequence erases every sin for this movie. the fact that stick's voice actor Nan Li from the band Voodoo Kung Fu made the theme song AND have one of theirs in there idk that's just awesome what more is to it?
anyways stick is such an especially unique take for a weapon and that he's an actual character. he has PRONOUNS and wants to do something non-violent (which is where he's most enthusiastic & hard-at-work. he carries monkey, monkey is nothing without him) he wants to play the guitar!!! he sings!!! he laughs at monkey's jokes and antics and its the sweetest thing!!! he hates dragon but grew to like lin!!! I love that
while i didn't know much, there was a Feeling I had about the demons being right out of the book and the way monkey is defeated. I JUST DIDN'T REALISE UNTIL I LOOKED IT UP THAT HE PISSES ON BUDDHA'S MIDDLE FINGER that was hilarious. so many parts caught me off guard while some did put me off too, and like you guys said overall its just really enjoyable!
the ending as well, i got excited even though i didn't Get their significance too much at the time, but it was so hype it really felt like they were setting up for a sequel or a series, which i would love as based on this adaptation considering how monkey basically killed half of the demons that were from the book in the montage!! also shout out to them making red boy into red girl, i called the twist instantly but that was still sick
Hi James and Nobu, I have watch you guys' show for a bit, but I just feel like I need to make some comment here.
In the original novel, the monkey king might be wild and unrestrained, but he is definitely not selfish: the initial reason why he kept fighting demons is because he is willing to protect his land and his monkey citizens. Also, the reason monkey king is trying to rebel the gods is because the gods consider his as a outlier and constantly trying to oppress him. But here they just altered his personality and changed him to a straight villain..
Journey to the West is one of the great Chinese traditional novels. It goes from Wukong as a rock to him being imprisoned to him as the monk's disciple. If you want a really good adaptation, the old CCTV show is amazing. You can see it free on the youtube channel (with subtitles). A couple of my favourite film re-imaginings of the story are Monkey King: Hero is Back (the one with subtitles, not the one that's been dubbed) and Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons. The latter is by Stephen Chow.
There is also a beat by beat live action one that is amazing, but sadly it had no English subtitles, otherwise it is amazing to see all the action in the book come to life like that, they even replicated all the dialogues from the book.
@@clairelin0216 Wish my Chinese was better so I could watch it.
@@GilraenTook Yeah, for this novel I found it best to do a beat by beat with all the dialogues from the book, I remember watching that one with the book by my side, the author's sense of humor was perfect🤣
I haven’t heard of this but it looks like a blast - I need to look into it! Thanks for introducing me to something new! 👍
You guys should watch Lego Monkie kid, and some other monkey king content
Underrated film
I love this movie
Jiang Ziya is a more serious Chinese animation that I really enjoyed. Not sure where you can watch it.
Since you've seen about Wukong do Nezha reborn next pls
I know a movie you guys should give a watch, "The Monkey King" from 2015, it's a live action telling of the story that tells the myth very well and the acting is great too, it's well written too, it's in in Sub tho but, it's still worth a watch
Have they watched any of the Earnest movies? If so, then forget I suggested this idea.
The Monkey King movie is very good.
Another great Monkey King movie is Monkey King: Hero is Back
I love this movie❤
This movie only adapt the firts 7 chapters of Jorney in to West, the second part Will adapt the rest of the book
I can't wait for it!!
@@whitenoisereacts I think this series may be way longer than 2 parts though, the book is like 100 chapters long.
The Monkey King isn't really sinister in the book, the other gods just do things that would set him off. He's also smart and resourceful, but he's way too straight forward that he's constantly misunderstood in the journey later.
It's like almost every single time the monk sends him home, it counts as one misfortune of their journey.
I wanted to wait until I saw the movie before seeing the reaction. This movie was so good, and your reactions are funny. You make some good points, I like when things peek into stuff but they don't od on it. It was a great movie.
I recommend Wish Dragon and please please see Rescue Rangers live-action really the random styles of animation and live blended will either crack you up or floor you
Yes! Monkey King got the hair-ability from video games😂
You should watch sea beasts
The protagonist is voiced by Jimmy o'yang... RUclips his standup specials...pretty funny.
Journey to the West is one of my favorite novels, I've been reading that since I was 11.
I don't know if they provide full English translation of the original book though, as most of the translations only go through less than 40% of the original book because it's a very long book, so long that my mom was surprised that I could finish it.
The original motives for the Monkey King was that he felt that he wasn't respected by the gods, the gods first refer to him as an immortal with a "demon" attached to it, and further mocked him by making him work in the stables, the second time, he realized that he's in too much trouble after eating all the food and drinking all the wine and just decided to leave. He's not really "sinister", as the gods constantly put him into situations that would set him off, but he's willing to accept defeat and he even gained new alliance through the defeat with the Jade Emperor's nephew. The reason why he crashed the party the second time was because the gods gave him the title but no salaries, this shouldn't be a problem at first, but without the salaries, the Monkey King is basically banned from large social gatherings like birthday parties and other things, when he knew that he wasn't invited, he was furious and just decided to go and crash the party.
The Monkey King is the first follower of the monk, as stated in the original novel that he's the heart of the journey, and every single time that he's being removed from it, the group ends up in all kinds of trouble that made them realize they couldn't do it without him. The original novel have a lot more funny moments and it's really worth a read.
I also watched an exact adaptation of the original Journey to the West novel, sadly, there was no English subtitles that goes along with it.
Some parts of the novel are really funny, like how the Monkey king isn't able to hide his tail when he transformed into large objects and people, or the time when he decided that dragon pee is suitable to go into medicine and he's like "It's okay, he's not just a horse, this would work.", and there is also one time when he tricked Piggy into giving him the silver he hid in his ear.
I always preferred the series version that was exactly like the novel for this one.
The first demon in this actually could defeat Monkey King, his element is fire while the Monkey King is metal.
The important characters will later be different elements that either could defeat each other or have no effect on each other.
And the trick the Monkey King pulled on that demon is q quite classic trick he pulled throughout the book, as the metal weapon is almost 22kg and no one could just pick it up and wield it like he did, that's a reference to the book, although not exactly with the same demon as presented in this movie, and for what it was worth, he's the uncle of that demon since he made a brother pact with the demon's father.
The Monkey King's charms is in his pride though lol
I feel like this movie would have been better if it was a series.
This was definitely a W movie
What about Nez-ha?

One piece live action?🙏🏽🙏🏽
When will we see disneys The Sword in The Stone?

Sorry lost interest in this movie quickly so watched your Peter Pan reaction instead. Hoping next movie will be better.. Until then keep healthy and safe.......
