Fun fact: Miley used to be just a nickname because she smiled a lot as a kid, and it rhymes with "smiley". Her birth name is Destiny Hope Cyrus. She had it legally changed in 2006
if i understand correctly it was so that she could legally be the owner of the songs she sang under disney or at least be seen as the performer under the eyes of the law or something
@@TheGabygaelfunny cause she had mentioned when she was younger she liked Miley better than destiny when it first came out while she was still hannah.
Fun fact: The last song in the movie (You’ll Always Find Your Way Back Home) was written by Taylor Swift. I think that shows what you guys were saying earlier about how you can see why Taylor is as big as she is now since you seemed to like that song the most out of all the “Hannah” songs.
(00:02:50 timestamp reply) It's implied in the show that Robby uses his money from his country music career to provide for his kids; there's a whole episode where Jackson finds out he's going to inherit a lot of money someday. In terms of Hannah money, it's implied that Robby keeps it separately for her; there is an episode where she asks for a raise in allowance, phrased as "a little extra Hannah money." I think she just doesn't have full control of her own money because, well, she's a child, but also because of the whole "just a normal girl" thing. But contrary to popular belief, I do not think she's the breadwinner in the Stewart family.
Also, it's mentioned multiple times on the show that Robby writes several songs for Hannah, which would mean that he earns money from that. He's able to provide for the kids and get some sort of (additional) income that way, and Miley gets to sing his songs and earn her own money. It's really a win-win for both.
if you weren't aware, the song she sang during the concert is the opening song of the show there's a joke amongst fans that all of the songs she sings as hannah either hint at her dual persona or are a reference to her personal life
It’s the way it’s shot I think. Because it’s not some revolutionary scene by any means, but I agree with you- I can picture it in my head instantly as I read your comment
im the opposite .... miley being caught by the little girl in the door always stuck with me.... and that is the reason i always tell people this movie is way more than it seems because my heart breaks for her (the little girl) every time.... 😂
I genuinely cried when I watched this in theaters- I was a kid but even now I’ve only ever cried in a theater twice. I LOVED this movie and even now I will watch it and ignore any cringe because it has such a rare pure place in my heart 🖤
Yess!!! I remember seeing this for my 8th birthday!! The memories! Tiger beat even had locker posters for this movie I remember Taylor Swift's and Lucas Till's the most!
same here! i cried in the scene where miley and her dad sing together. i was 6 and my dad took me to watch it so he just hugged me while i ugly cried 💀 it's still to this day one of my comfort movies and i play it whenever i need some noise in the background. never get tired of it
41:21 I always thought the reason lily forgave her was because what she did was kinda just as bad as what Miley did. Miley ruined her Sweet 16 and Lily gave the reporter insider info that would later get her secret exposed which is huge
Me and my friend performed it at a wedding, like just decided to perform that in front of everyone for absolutely no reason and we weren’t even that young!
the thing about this movie and all the hannah montana stuff that came before it is that miley is a genuinely compelling in her comedy acting and brings so much heart to this world. not only that but she's an incredible singer, it's very easy to understand why i was so obsessed with her as a pre-teen
The band singing on the porch is indeed the country band Rascal Flatts. They were really popular at the time and it was a surprise to see they were even in a tween movie. They sang an acoustic version of one of their most popular songs in that scene, Bless the Broken Road. I actually recently rediscovered that song after a long time of not having listened to it and wow I can't believe I ever forgot how much I love that song. Truly a beautiful, timeless classic!! Also, I will always love Crazier by Taylor Swift AND The Climb by Miley.
I think "Bless the Broken Road" is from someone else first and Rascal Flatts made a popular cover of it. (Also, I first heard of them due to their cover song in Cars "Life is a Highway")
@@macarenasebastiangaete You're right, I had no idea it was a cover. Apparently many artists have covered it but Rascal Flatts' version is the most popular.
this and the good luck charlie christmas movie were genuinely two of the movies that had young (and older) me sobbing for hours. love when disney mellowed down and gave their main characters relatable conflicts in their movie, especially since they’re pretty big tone shifts compared to their base shows.
absolutely I watch good luck charlie it’s christmas every year ugh it’s too good and both of these movies were perfect for the time yet hits the even better now. wish i could forget I’ve ever seen it and watch it all over again 😂
Fun fact Taylor swift is actually the one who wrote the last song of the movie you'll always find your way back home! alone with the one she performed crazier!
Miley grew up in the city too…. Lol her dad was famous first even in the show so she wasn’t always in Crowley corners. She moved out to California again when she started singing. So she was a baby and toddler in CC going back and forth, then lived there when her dad retired, then 5 years later moved back to California to be Hannah and go to school. If you watch the whole show it kinda gives you a timeline. So she really only had 5 years of Crowley corners and she’s 15-18 in the show 😊
This movie has always hit me right in my small town country heart, I was actually born a few hours away from where Miley was actually born. Obviously I don’t have a secret double life, but the idea of moving away to a big city and forgetting your old life hits me right in my feels. Even Grandma’s Elvis plate was something that made me emotional, because my Grandma passed away a few years ago and it just made me nostalgic. I always watch this movie when I feel like too much of a city girl. I was actually so giddy seeing you two watch this, because I know you two will understand or at least try to understand what the movie is actually representing!! Thank you for making our youtube experience so much better!! 🩵🩵
This movie was pretty similar to the show. It’s silly and goofy, but it does have some good jokes to make you crack up. (Also, Miley Cyrus’s The Climb is the ultimate power ballad.)
Agreed. First time I heard The Climb, I loved it so much cause I could imagine it in her perspective. Second time I heard it, I was bawling. 😅 (At that point in my life, I had gone through a few crazy things.) The Climb saved me several times in the past ten years.
@@RabbitsFunWorld I watched this movie when I was having a hard time, I just liked the climb and wanted to know what it was saying, I read the lyrics translation without the song and I cried for a whole hour, it felt like someone wrote me a letter, since then the Climb became my #1 consolation song of all times
Actually about the hair thing, i went from waist lenght black hair to a light brown pixie, and it did take some relatives longer to recognise me. Most thought i was my sister's friend until they talked straight to my face. And some school acquaintances acted weird until they heard others adress me, and they were like "oh it is you, i didn't know if you had moved and there was a new kid sitting there"
I love y’all but the lack of appreciation for the hoedown throwdown is so sad. My cousin danced to this at her wedding, this song is very important to us
I think adolescents who knew each other as little kids not recognising each other as teens after a long separation, isn’t so unusual. When I was 15 I bumped into my childhood best friend. We hadn’t seen each other since we were 11 and I did not recognise her. She recognised me though. I guess puberty changed her more than I had at that point? Or my memory is terrible. People can change drastically in a small length of time though
Nah, I understand why they can't relate. They both look young for their age. For someone who look young for their age, their change wasn't obvious, but for someone who actually look their age, the difference were obvious. Best example in my life, my sister. She's 25 and still look 15. The only difference was her height. Her face truly didn't change much since she was three. Everyone who saw her toddler photo definitely would say she didn't change that much at all.
@@scorpiongurlz89I’m 34 and people think I’m 22-24. People have always thought I’m a lot younger than I am, so I guess I still looked the same at 15 as I did at 11. My friend looked older and had changed more.
Even though I never thought Miley was the greatest actress, I've always really, really enjoyed this movie. I still like watching it every once in a while even after all these years!
The reporter's daughter (The girl Stef pointed out that looked familiar) is actually Natalia Dyer. Most people know her as Nancy Wheeler in Stranger Things!
It’s so funny going back to Miley Cyrus’ Hannah Montana days for me because even though that’s how I was introduced to her and I was obsessed with the show, I see her so differently now. She’s done such a phenomenal job as an artist in her own right and the way she presents herself generally as quite raw and authentic (at least in what she wishes to share with the public) that seeing her as this scrubbed Disney perfect character is just odd now. Great commentary as always. Fun walk down memory lane. Completely forgot Taylor Swift was in this movie!
The band singing is the Rascal Flatts, song is called Bless the broken road. They are a pretty well known country band. They are also on the soundtrack of the first cars movie with the song life is a highway
Miley is deep in the rock & metal world by the way! She was on Metallica’s new album if you guys haven’t had a chance to hear it, she covered ‘Nothing Else Matters’ and her tribute of Say Hello 2 Heaven at Chris Cornell’s memorial is my favorite cover she’s ever done. She was also close friends and neighbors with Taylor Hawkins & did ‘Photograph’ with Def Leppard & Foo Fighters at Taylor’s memorial too.
The Climb became a massive hit. Unfortunately it was not eligible to be nominated for Best Original Song at the Oscars (i guess because on a technicality it wasn’t written for the movie) but I truly believe if it was, it probably woulda had a good chance.
I don’t usually comment but I just wanna mention that I genuinely enjoy the commentary you guys give and both of ur social awareness on certain topics that I don’t see much from other commentary RUclipsrs + I also enjoy the hour long videos
Im sorry, when you popped up while editing to further defend your point and then absolutly roast Travis for hanging Miley down a well was one of the funniest things to me 😂
I may have grown up in the South (Louisiana), but I've only done a little line dance myself; still tho, I've been exposed to it a bit. As long as the steps are repeating, you can pick up the dance pretty on the spot and get into the rhythm. Some moves/combinations are fairly common. You gotta also predict where the song is going, too, if you don't know the song. It'd be a little harder for an improvised song, but not impossible; as long as there ain't any abrupt changes~ It helps that most the song is her naming the steps. If you line dance often enough, you get real good at picking things up quickly^.^ (It does appear just a *little* too clean, especially the people towards the back could be maybe a little more off~ BUT it's a movie~^.^) Have either of you seen Footloose? I'd recommend absolutely the original, first & foremost, but the remake is not horrible and has a pretty good line dance part^.^
I appreciate that you agree with not normalizing boys are mean cause they like you. My daughter is 7 and a little boy keeps telling her they are getting married but hes a brat to her more often than nice. So we keep having conversations about how we don't marry boys who are mean to us and don't treat us right!
I loved this movie when it came out (I was 13 and saw it at the cinema) and, to be honest, I still love it nowadays. I might have teared up at the end of this reaction. One of the best DCOMs, and I looooove the soundtrack so much. It’s one of those films that stays with you forever for me. Such a feel-good comfort movie. And I also loved the Taylor appreciation🫶🏻✨ she actually wrote “You Always Find Your Way…”!
Y’all talking down the hoedown throwdown is not going to fly LMAO it is hip hop inspired with country instruments. that’s what she meant. It’s an iconic song lol 😂
I hadn't seen this since it premiered essentially so I didn't realize who the daughter was until you mentioned noticing her from somewhere. I literally went back and looked, and it's freaking Nancy from Stranger Things!! Natalia Dyer
I think I feel save in recommending the movie "Honey (2003)" to you, The Movie Budz. You're the right guys for it! Critical reception doesn't matter anyway (as shown for example in your decision to watch Hot Pursuit (2015) or Bride Wars (2009))
LOL Stef singing Scotty Doesn't Know along with Rockstar was so good! Eurotrip is such an odd movie, but I have to admit I still kind of love it, mostly just because of nostalgia.
So bizarre rewatching this movie more than a decade later because I’m like “wait is that Tyra?? Is that Jan from the office??? Taylor swift was in this???”
In the show he actually doesn’t make money off her or at least he doesn’t need hers because he is an ex country star in the show too, he was even in a band. He’s still getting his stimulus for the hits he wrote- he also writes her songs for the first half of the series so the money should be half his technically too
as someone who grew up in a very small country town i was definitely just like miley at 16. i wanted to be in the big city and live a glamorous life. now at 22 and pandemic later i would love to live a calm life in the country. i appreciate it a lot more now. also yes it’s definitely a line dance. a line dance can be really anything as long as its repetitive. it’s pretty easy to figure out and follow along.
New York Minute!! I would die! And what I would give for y’all to do alllll the Olsen movies 😂😂😂 loved hearing your comments for this one, I was so surprised to see it! I already enjoyed this movie but the things you pointed out artistically and even structurally from the plot, now I appreciate it even more. ❤
Stef, at 1:07:26 ish when you wonder who the english paparazzo’s daughter is that’s familiar, is that Natalia Dyer aka Nancy from Stranger Things? 😮 edit: I see now Sam figured it out at the end 👍I wouldn’t have noticed had you two not flagged it
my favorite disney channel movie! always makes me cry. when i was younger, especially the parts where Travis catches her & the whole sad mood for the rest of the movie.
Love the comments about the structuring of pop songs and them having the same basic foundations. I loved when Seth Green's character on Buffy used to make fun of this and made like a big thing about the band learning a new chord.
8:43- The main point of this film was getting Miley to remember her roots. She got too caught up in the glamorous life of Hannah Montana and forgot that aspiring, humble country girl from a small town who just wanted to sing. 36:36- I wish Taylor stayed in the country genre. She fits better in it than pop. 54:41- In the show the Hannah secret caused her alot of issues too. Hence why Miley revealed herself in Hannah Montana Forever to the public.
Cool little tidbit, last song of the movie, You’ll Always Find Your Way Back Home, was actually written by Taylor Swift and Martin Johnson, the lead singer of Boys Like Girls!
Yessss! Another classic movie!! Also, I got my merch earlier this week and it is SO CUTE AND SO COMFY! Wearing the Pixel Kitty shirt now! :) SO happy to be apart of this channel, and we appreciate all the work you guys do!!
There is "spontaneous" line dancing. The MC is a Caller, and they basically do what Miley did, call out line dancing moves. And people that do line dancing regularly would be able to do something like this
I didnt realize it as a kid but im pretty sure the 'hip-hop' hoedown is because Miley didnt want to sing in front of everyone and expose herself as Hannah Montana, so she did a hoedown (and i suppose the producers would try and act like a rap?) so people wouldnt notice.
ive been watching yall for 2 years especially in prolly the most rock bottom part of my life but when i watch ur reactions to a movie i watched or rlly like it boosts my mood fr thank u💪🏼❤
I love your channel and everything but what I like the most compared to other similar channels is how emotionally mature and good vibes u guys are:) greetings from Honduras 🇭🇳
The very beginning of Hannah Montana the series was Lily very quickly figuring out her best friend Miley and her favourite popstar are the same person. You’re right that the Clark Kent/superman persona probably doesn’t last long in person. Not like from a distance. She should have just fessed up sooner
I've heard extras for the ending scene say that Miley sang the climb live every time! So it's interesting that you say it looks like she was really singing
OMG THIS IS LITERALLY MOVIE OF MY LIFETIME U DONT GET HOW EXCITED I WAS WHEN THIS NOTIF POPPED UP ! this movie is seriously top 4 on my letterboxd rn 😭
Now thinking about it, I am amazed how much the movie ignored the show. This is not her first relationship. She had a bunch of dates and love interests since season 1. Her first one was jake ryan. Vanessa Williams was not her publisher or manager in the show, but I don’t care about that change. The best change that I wished we saw in the show was the other half of her family. We see one grandmother in the show constantly, but not the one from this film. An episode with both of them would have been great especially during the graduation episode. The scene where Lily was mad was the only part that related to the show, in my opinion aside from the double life component. There were many times that Miley choose Hannah over her friends and they just forgave her every time, but she doesn’t fully learn from those mistakes. The cameos were great. My favorites were Rascall Flatts and Taylor Swift and she did write a couple of songs for the film.
My home town is about 10,000 people, but half of that are all farmers and stuff who live way out of town. We have two supermarkets, IGA and Foodworks. But when I was about 11 a new one opened up and my dad told me years later that the owner literally said “I’m going to take over this town” His shop closed after about a month because NO ONE went there 😂
3:35 I think I would have thought it would just be a reference to her being on stage and pop star sensation but still being a normal person at home and with your friends, I think a lot of famous people can relate to that. I most likely would not have thought she literally had another name and lived life as a non celebrity hahaha 😂
There was something genuinely hilarious about you saying, "She said she's bringing hip-hop?" then the direct cut to your face all close-up to the camera with nothing but sheer confusion. lol
This movie is actually not the first time that Miley Mrs Lily's birthday, they make a deal about it in one of the episodes of the show as well, also the best of both worlds song at the beginning of the film is actually the theme song of the show and in season three of Hannah Montana, she actually does have the bangs and looks more like Hannah Montana ironically.
Love the reaction, this hits me rigth in my nostalgia. I really liked Miley’s last two albums plastic hearts and Endless summer vacation her voice is just beautiful. Now Taylor is my favorite because of her songwriting she is always fine a way to put in to words what I’m feeling and it is funny must people only had heard the radio singles so they create this image without listening to the deep cuts, I loved all her albums but in terms of songwriting my favorite are Red, folklore and evermore
It's crazy how much music can help you heal. Different situation but one that helped me was 'Here Comes a Thought' by Rebecca Sugar. Highly reccomend it 😊 - Stef

The hiphop perspective in hoedown throwdown is probably referring to the dance she was singing about. Like popping and locking.

I don’t usually comment but I just wanna mention that I genuinely enjoy the commentary you guys give and both of ur social awareness on certain topics that I don’t see much from other commentary RUclipsrs + I also enjoy the hour long videos
Im sorry, when you popped up while editing to further defend your point and then absolutly roast Travis for hanging Miley down a well was one of the funniest things to me 😂
I may have grown up in the South (Louisiana), but I've only done a little line dance myself; still tho, I've been exposed to it a bit. As long as the steps are repeating, you can pick up the dance pretty on the spot and get into the rhythm. Some moves/combinations are fairly common. You gotta also predict where the song is going, too, if you don't know the song. It'd be a little harder for an improvised song, but not impossible; as long as there ain't any abrupt changes~ It helps that most the song is her naming the steps. If you line dance often enough, you get real good at picking things up quickly^.^ (It does appear just a *little* too clean, especially the people towards the back could be maybe a little more off~ BUT it's a movie~^.^)
Have either of you seen Footloose? I'd recommend absolutely the original, first & foremost, but the remake is not horrible and has a pretty good line dance part^.^
So the girl that you thought was familiar is Natalia Dyer, she plays Nancy in Stranger Things :)
I appreciate that you agree with not normalizing boys are mean cause they like you. My daughter is 7 and a little boy keeps telling her they are getting married but hes a brat to her more often than nice. So we keep having conversations about how we don't marry boys who are mean to us and don't treat us right!
youre a good mum!!
Never seen this but when Tyra started a fight I was, on behalf of everyone infected by ANTM ad a kid, cheering for her to get a beat down haha
I saw it opening weekend at the movie theater
I loved this movie when it came out (I was 13 and saw it at the cinema) and, to be honest, I still love it nowadays. I might have teared up at the end of this reaction. One of the best DCOMs, and I looooove the soundtrack so much. It’s one of those films that stays with you forever for me. Such a feel-good comfort movie.
And I also loved the Taylor appreciation🫶🏻✨ she actually wrote “You Always Find Your Way…”!
Lol Eric from Pretty Much It started singing the Scotty doesn’t know song when him and his sister reacted to this movie
Y’all talking down the hoedown throwdown is not going to fly LMAO it is hip hop inspired with country instruments. that’s what she meant. It’s an iconic song lol 😂
The guy who plays Travis (Lucas Till) was also the love interest in the music video for You Belong With Me by Taylor Swift 🎶
I hadn't seen this since it premiered essentially so I didn't realize who the daughter was until you mentioned noticing her from somewhere. I literally went back and looked, and it's freaking Nancy from Stranger Things!! Natalia Dyer
I think I feel save in recommending the movie "Honey (2003)" to you, The Movie Budz. You're the right guys for it! Critical reception doesn't matter anyway (as shown for example in your decision to watch Hot Pursuit (2015) or Bride Wars (2009))
1:07:30 is Stranger things Natalia Dyer, the girl you said looks familiar. 'Assuming that's where you've seen her from'.😅
LOL Stef singing Scotty Doesn't Know along with Rockstar was so good! Eurotrip is such an odd movie, but I have to admit I still kind of love it, mostly just because of nostalgia.
So bizarre rewatching this movie more than a decade later because I’m like “wait is that Tyra?? Is that Jan from the office??? Taylor swift was in this???”
Butterfly Fly Away and The Climb always make me emotional man :')
The Hoedown Throwdown was EVERYWHERE. I even tried to learn the dance. And failed at that. But it was so big.
The Climb is one of the best Disney songs of all time!!
“You’ll always find your way back home” SLAPSSSSS…and it was written by Taylor swift
In the show he actually doesn’t make money off her or at least he doesn’t need hers because he is an ex country star in the show too, he was even in a band. He’s still getting his stimulus for the hits he wrote- he also writes her songs for the first half of the series so the money should be half his technically too
as someone who grew up in a very small country town i was definitely just like miley at 16. i wanted to be in the big city and live a glamorous life. now at 22 and pandemic later i would love to live a calm life in the country. i appreciate it a lot more now.
also yes it’s definitely a line dance. a line dance can be really anything as long as its repetitive. it’s pretty easy to figure out and follow along.
“Funny that my first exposure to that song was a fucking danny phantom amv...” lmao as a huge DP fan, that comment totally blindsided me...
New York Minute!! I would die! And what I would give for y’all to do alllll the Olsen movies 😂😂😂 loved hearing your comments for this one, I was so surprised to see it! I already enjoyed this movie but the things you pointed out artistically and even structurally from the plot, now I appreciate it even more. ❤
Stef, at 1:07:26 ish when you wonder who the english paparazzo’s daughter is that’s familiar, is that Natalia Dyer aka Nancy from Stranger Things? 😮 edit: I see now Sam figured it out at the end 👍I wouldn’t have noticed had you two not flagged it
That is indeed rascall flatts!! life is a HIGHWAY!!! Love that you two covered this movie this is so fun
I saw this movie in theatres as a kid and I’ll admit I still listen to some of the soundtrack to this day 😂 love it. Hoedown Throwdown is iconic!
my favorite disney channel movie! always makes me cry. when i was younger, especially the parts where Travis catches her & the whole sad mood for the rest of the movie.
One of the paparazzi’s daughters is the actor from stranger things
Love the comments about the structuring of pop songs and them having the same basic foundations. I loved when Seth Green's character on Buffy used to make fun of this and made like a big thing about the band learning a new chord.
8:43- The main point of this film was getting Miley to remember her roots. She got too caught up in the glamorous life of Hannah Montana and forgot that aspiring, humble country girl from a small town who just wanted to sing.
36:36- I wish Taylor stayed in the country genre. She fits better in it than pop.
54:41- In the show the Hannah secret caused her alot of issues too. Hence why Miley revealed herself in Hannah Montana Forever to the public.
As someone from a musical family at gatherings we always have a mic and SOMEONE always pulls out a guitar😂.
Cool little tidbit, last song of the movie, You’ll Always Find Your Way Back Home, was actually written by Taylor Swift and Martin Johnson, the lead singer of Boys Like Girls!
Yessss! Another classic movie!! Also, I got my merch earlier this week and it is SO CUTE AND SO COMFY! Wearing the Pixel Kitty shirt now! :) SO happy to be apart of this channel, and we appreciate all the work you guys do!!
There is "spontaneous" line dancing. The MC is a Caller, and they basically do what Miley did, call out line dancing moves. And people that do line dancing regularly would be able to do something like this
I lost it at the part where Sam sang then completely changed his voice when he said "I'll get you back." lol
Thanks dude! 😁 - Sam
1:07:30 that’s Natalia Dyer, probably most famous for playing Nancy Wheeler on Stranger Things!!
19:45 To be fair, in children's media girl characters do that more often (iCarly, Jimmy Neutron, Hey Arnold).
Fun fact: Taylor Swift actually wrote the final song "Hannah" sings !!
the girl on the right (One of the British sisters) is Nancy from stranger things, she's from Nashville and went to an Acting school there.
I didnt realize it as a kid but im pretty sure the 'hip-hop' hoedown is because Miley didnt want to sing in front of everyone and expose herself as Hannah Montana, so she did a hoedown (and i suppose the producers would try and act like a rap?) so people wouldnt notice.
29:07 'this persons walnuts' is wild out of context 😂
ive been watching yall for 2 years especially in prolly the most rock bottom part of my life but when i watch ur reactions to a movie i watched or rlly like it boosts my mood fr thank u💪🏼❤
Glad we could be there for you 😊 - Sam
Miley ate tf outta the climb and I still look it up too this day 😂😂😂😂
One of the daughters of the paparazzi guy is Natalia Dyer, she plays Nancy Wheeler in Stranger Things :)
I love your channel and everything but what I like the most compared to other similar channels is how emotionally mature and good vibes u guys are:) greetings from Honduras 🇭🇳
The very beginning of Hannah Montana the series was Lily very quickly figuring out her best friend Miley and her favourite popstar are the same person. You’re right that the Clark Kent/superman persona probably doesn’t last long in person. Not like from a distance. She should have just fessed up sooner
44:45 "Have you taken him?" I can't XD
😁🙏 - Sam
03:04 I had to replay this part, I 100% thought Sam said he knew a 'Muggle', and I was completely confused 😂😂 But no, just a 'model'~
This was filmed in my hometown Columbia, TN. My buddies and I would reenact the revolving door scene. We yell at eachother "Travis".
The girl to the right is Natalia Dyer ( NANCY WHEELER) from stranger things !!
Saying Taylor swift is a better performance than Miley has to be one of the craziest shit i ever heard.
23:09 “an actual country act” omg
I've heard extras for the ending scene say that Miley sang the climb live every time! So it's interesting that you say it looks like she was really singing
OMG THIS IS LITERALLY MOVIE OF MY LIFETIME U DONT GET HOW EXCITED I WAS WHEN THIS NOTIF POPPED UP ! this movie is seriously top 4 on my letterboxd rn 😭
Now thinking about it, I am amazed how much the movie ignored the show.
This is not her first relationship. She had a bunch of dates and love interests since season 1. Her first one was jake ryan.
Vanessa Williams was not her publisher or manager in the show, but I don’t care about that change.
The best change that I wished we saw in the show was the other half of her family. We see one grandmother in the show constantly, but not the one from this film. An episode with both of them would have been great especially during the graduation episode.
The scene where Lily was mad was the only part that related to the show, in my opinion aside from the double life component. There were many times that Miley choose Hannah over her friends and they just forgave her every time, but she doesn’t fully learn from those mistakes.
The cameos were great. My favorites were Rascall Flatts and Taylor Swift and she did write a couple of songs for the film.
My home town is about 10,000 people, but half of that are all farmers and stuff who live way out of town.
We have two supermarkets, IGA and Foodworks. But when I was about 11 a new one opened up and my dad told me years later that the owner literally said “I’m going to take over this town”
His shop closed after about a month because NO ONE went there 😂
3:35 I think I would have thought it would just be a reference to her being on stage and pop star sensation but still being a normal person at home and with your friends, I think a lot of famous people can relate to that. I most likely would not have thought she literally had another name and lived life as a non celebrity hahaha 😂
There was something genuinely hilarious about you saying, "She said she's bringing hip-hop?" then the direct cut to your face all close-up to the camera with nothing but sheer confusion. lol
This movie is actually not the first time that Miley Mrs Lily's birthday, they make a deal about it in one of the episodes of the show as well, also the best of both worlds song at the beginning of the film is actually the theme song of the show and in season three of Hannah Montana, she actually does have the bangs and looks more like Hannah Montana ironically.
Check out Sam rewriting The Climb as a childhood revenge track 😂😂😂😂👏👏👏
Love the reaction, this hits me rigth in my nostalgia. I really liked Miley’s last two albums plastic hearts and Endless summer vacation her voice is just beautiful. Now Taylor is my favorite because of her songwriting she is always fine a way to put in to words what I’m feeling and it is funny must people only had heard the radio singles so they create this image without listening to the deep cuts, I loved all her albums but in terms of songwriting my favorite are Red, folklore and evermore
I listend so much to the climb after my boyfriend broke up with me and I was starting to get up again. This song really helped me.❤
It's crazy how much music can help you heal. Different situation but one that helped me was 'Here Comes a Thought' by Rebecca Sugar. Highly reccomend it 😊 - Stef
Hannah Montana is based on Dolly Parton who wears a wig to go out into public. She’s Miley’s god mother
How did I miss this upload until now?!? This movie is my childhood 😭💕 so excited to watch this!
I screamed when I saw y’all doing this movie!! My childhood is flashing before my eyes 😂💙
Why is no one taking about how the daughter Stef recognized is Nancy from Stanger Things? 1:07:42
the song at the very end called “you’ll always find your way back home” was written by taylor swift
2023 and still mad that The Climb wasn´t even nominated for best song at Oscars and Grammys
That truck looks amazing and very common in the country :b accurate I’d say. And a beaut!
One of my all time feel good movie. The climb in all my playlists. Hannah - and Miley - always in my heart ❤️
I grew up around chickens and after living in the city (especially when you make the change really young) it can definitely make a difference lol
