The universe of Mondo TV is hilarious. It involves Sleeping Beauty with dinosaurs, a messiah Tarzan, alternate dimensions, the Lion King with magic lasers, flame thrower mice trained by the American army, etc.
Phelous in his review of it mentioned that another reason the entire movie is a mess and characters appearing with no introduction is because the entire movie depends on the viewer having seen a dozen shows that were based on fairy tales and later were crossover into ridiculous Crossovers and a soccer spin-off. Take for example that boy, he's the son of Sleeping Beauty from Mondo's Sleeping Beauty series. And when he was born he was then raised in the jungle from their Jungle Book series. He made friends with some dogs and lions (You guessed it, their Lion King ripoff series) and they all went to challenge the Sleeping Beauty villain to a game of soccer which was it's own show. Yup, the entire Mondo series is more confusing and convoluted than Kingdoms Heart's lore.
@@harmonetheanimationaddict4419 I just couldn't believe that there was another animated Titanic film that's even more insane than the one with the rapping dog.
Wow, I really can’t believe that the studio that made this, along with Legend of The Titanic and Tentacolino actually sent you a cease and desist in order to stop you from criticising their films, it just shows what type of company they really are to do something like that. I’m really surprised how deep of a rabbit hole Mondo TV really has, with the fact that their shows were animated from a studio in North Korea or the fact that all of their shows and movies are some how connected and in the same universe.
also their shows too at the time, they did stop making insane and bad shows and movies these days, they rarely did bad shows these days unlike with their previous works which is from 1996 to 2012
Quite ironic too, considering they literally engaged in plaigarism themselves with this film alone by ripping JPEGs of Mickey, Minnie and Pooh plushes from the internet. All AniMat did was reviewing their films on RUclips, and that's legally NOT plaigarism.
@@voltingmaster5458Same. Imo, Christmas in New York makes The Christmas Tree(1991), The Nuttiest Nutcracker, The Christmas Light, The Christmas Brigade, Elf Bowling: The Movie, and Rapsittie Street Kids: Believe In Santa, look like Citizen Kane, The Shawshank Redemption, The Godfather saga, The Wolf of Wall Street, and the Star Wars Original Trilogy in comparison(not counting the Star Wars Holiday Special surrounding the same franchise, given that George Lucas and the Star Wars cast despise the show).
That scene from opening of The Legend of the Titanic you dubbed over in the middle of the review is definitely the best part and I think perfectly represents everything wrong with Mondo TV’s works. I think at this point that elderly mouse grandpa might as well be the official mascot of Mondo TV as he’s perfectly the embodiment of the studio itself: crazy, inconsistent, weird, and implausible.
Yes, I knew that Christmas in New York would get the biggest AniMat Seal of Garbage yet. May Christmas in New York get coal in the stocking, because this movie is on the naughty list.
@@tgiacin435although she is uncredited just like with dan green, he voices two of the characters which is bimbo or what i should call him charled and baloo
I'd say Christmas In New York makes Arctic Dogs look like a Disney movie in comparison based on the clips in this review alone and Arctic Dogs is a guilty pleasure of mine
It’s like this movie was made by someone who ate the wrong kind of candy canes. Anything from Mondo Tv doesn’t surprise me because their stories do not understand what common sense is. This is one of the most insane Christmas movies that ever exists. It’s even crazier the studio that animated it also did the infamous propaganda cartoon “Squirrel and Hedgehog”
I’m still trying to recover from just watching your AniMat Watches video of Christmas In New York, so if Persepolis is going to be the next Classic Review, THANK GOD!!!🙌 (Oh, and about that “Raw milk cures autism” conspiracy theory…HAHAHAHAHA!!!😹)
Part of why this movie makes no sense is because it's a crossover and culmination of several Mondo TV shows. Sleeping Beauty, Jungle Book, and a World Cup soccer show. It's awful and insane no matter what.
This was such an amazing review! Loved every minute of it! You're so welcome for the support on Patreon throughout 2024! I'm wishing you a happy and prosperous 2025! ;) BTW I watched all those episodes of the series' connecting with Christmas in New York continuity-wise, so you don't have to! I guess it's my payback for investing $100 a month to make you review this clump of coal under the Christmas tree. XD
@superseal9052you’re not alone I was hoping animat would review something from Disney, Pixar or Dreamworks next don’t get me wrong it’s cool he’s reviewing movies not many people know about it but can’t he pick something that is well known for a change?!?
@@georgerobertson7010 we cannot blame him, he is just reviewing films either suggested by a patreon member or picked out the animation hat. If we want change, we can easily send him a bunch of films to review to be put in the animation hat. This will increase the probability of getting a film
Congratulations, AniMat. I think you'll need a break before you go further into the Mondo Zone. Trust me. It'll leave you running low on system memory.
I noticed you changed the 1 and 2/10 rating music again. Maybe not as fitting as the Lion King Fall of Scar music, but more fitting than the Super Mario 64 Game Over tune. This was a fun review and I like that little skit with the mouse, that was a nice throwback to the one from the Tentacolino review. Seriously, what were they thinking with the Dog Catcher? I don't mind that they want to give him some heart, but there's a fine line between giving a villain a bit of a heart and going 180 on them. Though it is interesting ( and maybe a little unsettling) that they gave this film its own little universe, one that most likely will make the Sony Spider-Man Universe look like Phase 1 and 2 of the MCU. Anyway, I think Persepolis is next. I haven't seen that movie, but from what I heard, I think it's safe to say we'll be going in the opposite and more desired direction with it.
In season 2 of The Simba series Simba goes to New York where there is an underground Rat War filled with tanks and lightsabers and when I say lightsabers I mean Star Wars lightsabers I am not making this up.
Even throughout this review, I kept asking this burning question. Who is Mondo TV's target audience? Masochistic people that enjoy shredding their content through their reviews?
This is honestly worse Christmas animated movie you ever reviewed. I still wished you could've reviewed Klaus or the Polar Express just to honor their Anniversaries and this was a missed wasted opportunity.
Our first 1-2/10 since Arctic dogs (2019)! Seriously how are you so fragile about one RUclipsr talking crap about your projects? That you have to send a cease-and-desist about it. That’s one major problem with Hollywood and the movie industry, worldwide as a whole when a movie fails at the box office or just doesn’t get received by audiences and critics. Sometimes people who worked on the movie or studio executives will go after audiences and critics like their fault
This isn't the first time I've seen a review of "Christmas in New York", I did see Phelous review of it and it was three years ago. And also Phelous gave us a lot of homework to watch, a lot of Mondo shows to understand this movie
Imagine, the same studio who also made the two Titanic Animated Movies Made this Christmas movie, also including these TV shows: Winner and the Golden Child, The Legend of Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, Simba the King Lion, Jesus: A Kingdom Without Frontiers
Wait, what do you mean that Mondo TV made other things besides those animated Titanic movies? And what do you mean that the characters come from other, earlier Mondo TV projects that you need to watch in order to understand their backstories and context? And what do you mean that Mondo TV tried to send you a cease and desist letter for reviewing their movies!? Also, that sketch with the mouses from "The Legend of the Titanic" to 'explain' why the story of this film is so convoluted was comedy gold. Now I'm going to headcanon that every Mondo TV project ever was just the ramblings of that crazy mouse. Also, this has got to be the first 2/10 since "Arctic Dogs" (at least in terms of animated movies reviewed in either the main "AniMat's Reviews" or in "AniMat's Classic Reviews" - to anyone about to say it, yes, I know Mat had reviewed "Serenity" sometime after that and also gave that film a 2/10). Damn, five years without AniMat reviewing a true animated masterpiece of disaster. Shame that the outro music for films with either a 1/10 or a 2/10 had to be changed again because of copyright... Also, NEXT CLASSIC REVIEW IS "PERSEPOLIS" WOO-HOO! And it couldn't have come at a better time, too. Because after this trainwreck, AniMat really needs a good movie.
The entire sketch from 7:20-8:26 was absolutely hilarious!
You deserve a gold medal for simply going through this trainwreck.
Phelous also did this trainwreck and also deserves a gold metal
Very funny
I know right! Is this going to be a thing everytime he review's a Mondo TV production film? I wouldn't even mind a whole compilation of it!
@ I’d be surprised if he did a Daniel Thrasher reference
I have to agree. The first seconds I didn't even register that this was Animat who did the voice acting work. Great job 👍
Saberspark never recovered from this movie
The universe of Mondo TV is hilarious.
It involves Sleeping Beauty with dinosaurs, a messiah Tarzan, alternate dimensions, the Lion King with magic lasers, flame thrower mice trained by the American army, etc.

@@JinxSanity And the story of Metal Gear, Devil May Cry, Five Nights At Freddy’s, and The Legend of Zelda combined.
At least Kingdom Hearts is actually a FUN with its convoluted lore.
The studio from Legend of the Titanic? Begone demons!
They legit just recolored and slightly changed the look of the dog from that movie.
Is anyone good from them a joke?
They did a cartoon based on Sissi
@@harmonetheanimationaddict4419
I just couldn't believe that there was another animated Titanic film that's even more insane than the one with the rapping dog.
I knew it was that same studio because of that godawful animation.
Die mondo TV who made fantasy island tv series you don’t belong in this world
The Dog Catcher here makes Disney's Coachman look more misunderstood and harmless by comparison.

This movie’s on the naughty list
Oh no, it’s not just on the Naughty List…
It’s getting a visit from Krampus…
How could we ever forget the 2 infamous Titanic flicks ever from mondo
And a tv series sequel
I’m glad there’s no rapping in the movie, but still, the film is absolute bonkers!
And I’m glad it’s not a twisted retelling of an actual historical event that happened, but still doesn’t excuse its nonsensical plot.
as an italian, I apologize to everyone for this crap, Mondo Tv's movies are a sin
also their shows too at the time, they did stop making insane and bad shows and movies these days, they rarely did bad shows these days unlike with their previous works which is from 1996 to 2012

From Mario 64 Game Over Music, to Banjo-Kazooie Game Over Music

That skit involving the talking mice from Legend of the Titanic was great.
Two back to back reviews from yesterday and today it must be a Christmas miracle.
The first 2/10 Movie reviewed from AniMat since Arctic Dogs
Technically speaking, it was actually his review for Serenity (2019) that was the last 2/10 review on his channel
That scene from opening of The Legend of the Titanic you dubbed over in the middle of the review is definitely the best part and I think perfectly represents everything wrong with Mondo TV’s works. I think at this point that elderly mouse grandpa might as well be the official mascot of Mondo TV as he’s perfectly the embodiment of the studio itself: crazy, inconsistent, weird, and implausible.
1:23 Oh, and there’s a sequel series too.
I was just about to mention fantasy island
Yes, I knew that Christmas in New York would get the biggest AniMat Seal of Garbage yet. May Christmas in New York get coal in the stocking, because this movie is on the naughty list.
This movie deserves to be on the naughty list getting nothing but coal. And yikes, I haven’t seen a 2/10 in five years.
Yeah. The last time I saw that was in his review of Arctic Dogs. I remember he had 2 change the music (presumably 4 copyright reasons).
@@katherinepollock3957does this one have the new one
Now the animated disaster (score 1/2) music is Banjo Kazooie? Congrats for being the first 2 out of 10 in a while, Mondo!
Honestly I was expecting the Mario 64 game over music, like in his arctic dogs review.
12:10 Oh My Lord. Disney, Are You Seeing This? 😧
This movie is like a Christmas adventure while taking acid. Just bonkers. 😅
Funny enough, the series Winner and the golden child, Ari was actually voiced by Veronica Taylor. And she was the only good thing about that series
The original voice of Ash from Pokémon?
@ yep
@@tgiacin435although she is uncredited just like with dan green, he voices two of the characters which is bimbo or what i should call him charled and baloo
Wowsers! I haven't seen a review get a score between 2019's Artic Dogs!
Wasn't there a sequel about those puffin things in 2024?
@BrookeKowalsky what Puffin things? God, I hope the animation isn't crap!
I'd say Christmas In New York makes Arctic Dogs look like a Disney movie in comparison based on the clips in this review alone and Arctic Dogs is a guilty pleasure of mine
So we meet again Studio that gave us The Legend of the Titanic, In the words of Stan Smith, "HO-HO-HO! NO NO NO!"
It’s like this movie was made by someone who ate the wrong kind of candy canes. Anything from Mondo Tv doesn’t surprise me because their stories do not understand what common sense is. This is one of the most insane Christmas movies that ever exists. It’s even crazier the studio that animated it also did the infamous propaganda cartoon “Squirrel and Hedgehog”

They actually sent you a cease and desist letter? I haven't seen a company this insecure since Sho Pro!
Figuring out the lore of this film is the equivalent to the whole Kingdom Hearts lore from top to bottom.
Part of why this movie makes no sense is because it's a crossover and culmination of several Mondo TV shows. Sleeping Beauty, Jungle Book, and a World Cup soccer show. It's awful and insane no matter what.
Even worse it also includes a lion king rip off show
@gumundureyorarnfinnsson4212 oh, yeah. Phelous talked about it in his review of this holiday drug trip.
The fact that mondotv outsourced their animation in North Korea makes things worse for Mondotv
22:56 dang it no Mario 64 game over theme
This makes Grandma Got Run Over By A Reindeer look like Aladdin.
8:46
Don’t you like stock footage of Mickey, mini and Pooh plush toys appearing?
We finally got a movie with a rating of 2/10.
We could have gotten polar express or Rudolph.
But hey, a soul for a soul
Bet you didn't know this, along with Tentacolino had there on separate TV Series.
I would love to see a classic review of finding Nemo
Me too someone’s gotta request him to review it since animat’s been reviewing lesser known movies a lot lately
See Saberspark North Korean Lion king everything will make a little more sense
This far surpasses even Michael Bays level insanity.
Merry Christmas Animat!
Why not used the Sonic CD USA Game Over music for the 2/10 and 1/10. That music is really, really scary

7:12 - 8:26 is my favorite part. I love how the kids are smarter than their grandpa.
If your children are nutty this year show them this movie Christmas in New York as punishment

Still a better animated Dog Movie than 2022 Marmaduke

Looks like the 1-2 out of 10 music has changed again since Arctic Dogs.
And this movies has a bunch of lore from other shows, Jesus Christ
YES! ITS BEEN A REALLY LONG TIME FOR A 2/10 REVIEW! (the last one i think was Arctic Dogs)
Technically Serenity was the last one, but yeah, it’s been 5 years
I WANT HIM TO REVIEW NORM OF THE NORTH 2 PLEASE!
I think the last time Animat put a classic review on a Saturday was hos review of Dinosaurs back in 2019
No surprises that this was made by the same studio who made... such works of oceanic art...
These grandpa mouse sketches should be a thing every time Animat reviews a Mondo movie
Next christmas you should review the christmas tree and/or rapsittie street kids.

The Mondo TV lore runs deep
It started when they stopped working with Japan, making good content, and started working with North Korea, creating bizarre acid trips.
2:00 “High economic damages” bc people know within seconds of watching the clips that they will never watch these movies
The writing is so bad this feels like if it was written by a brainless dead, drunk six year old child.
