Fun fact: The character George Jetson was ranked #4 in TV Guide's list of the "25 Greatest Sci-Fi Legends" (August 1, 2004 issue).

[@Orrenn]

My immediate reaction: I've never heard of this, but Darth Vader has to be number 1 right? I had heard of Darth Vader before I even knew what Star Wars was. *looks it up* !!! How did he not even make the list!? *thinks about it* It's TV Guide... So, television, not cinema... ...I get it... Seriously though, I thought it was a great list. Rod Serling and The Twilight Zone are a great pick for #1.

This wouldn’t be the last time a professional voice actor got screwed by executive meddling. Everyone, except for Scooby got recast with celebrity voices in SCOOB without their knowledge and Zendaya cast as Lola in Space Jam 2 at the last minute, even though Lola was supposed to be voiced by her official voice actor, Kath Soucie. And big surprise, all the celebrity voices were horrible. Professional voice actors always get treated like crap when it comes to mainstream theatrical films.

It's so dumb. Voice acting and live action are so different yet studio heads think they're interchangeable. That's why I'm always so impressed with actors that can so fluidly do both.

[@Wiccanwolf08]

@@wingdingmasquerade The thing with Scoob that was really dumb to me was that they kept Frank Welker to do the voice of Scooby Doo, but got someone else to do Fred’s voice, even though Frank Welker is also Fred’s original and primary voice actor.

[@RikoZerame]

@@Wiccanwolf08 "Primary voice actor" is underselling it; Scoob marked the first time (outside of a couple video games) that Frank Welker DIDN'T voice adult Fred. He's been voicing the character in every single major appearance for more than 50 years. I'm pretty sure if anyone bothered to dig into it, he's probably in the top ten longest-running role reprisals ever.

This movie shares a curiously similar story line as the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Devil in the Dark." In that episode, members of a mining colony meet with constant damage caused by a mysterious being. Though a darker storyline, the crew of the Enterprise realizes that the miners are invading a creature's world and killing her eggs. It is also discovered that the creature is simply being defensive, and is actually a peaceful, logical being. In fact, the creature's behavior is beneficial to the miners, and an arrangement is made for the miner's and the creature and her babies to partner with the workers, so long as each stays out of the other's way. While The Jetsons Movie has a more environmental bent, the end result of each story is that the humans make more money with the help of the indigenous species.

There was a story printed by DC due to a cross-promo thing with HB. The Jetson short story was about Judy visiting her dying grandma undergoing surgery but George was currently feuding with his mom. The surgery is a mind transferal to a robot body being done by Cogsworth Cogs hence the feud. Spoiler: Grandma is Rosie. This cross promotion also gave us a social commentary with the Flintstone World going from early stone age to modern stone age, a Space Ghost run, a Banana Splits × Suicide Squad one shot, Snagglepuss as a gay playwright in the 1950s(?), and the most successful thing from this being Scooby Apocalypse.

Jetsons The Movie a truly underrated gem of the Hannah Barbra Cartoons that stayed true to it's source material it wasn't Great and it wasn't terrible it was okay for what it was

[@kenthuang436]

It had excellent music and the animation was pretty good. I also like how they didn’t beat you over the head with its environmental message and actually had a compromise where Mr Spacey could continue his business and the Grungees got jobs and had ways to mine for the necessary ores to make the sprockets without destroying their home. Usually these things force the antagonist to stop everything they were doing and shame them for wanting to make a profit and hurting the environment. The Jetsons Movie showed how progress itself isn’t a bad thing and can benefit everyone if you find a way to do it responsibly and gives back in return.

[@johnnysparkle]

Executive Meddling: After recording all of her dialogue for Judy Jetson, Universal Studios threw out Janet Waldo's performance and replaced her with 80s pop star Tiffany, who was currently under contract by the studio's record label MCA. Waldo was not told until the premiere and was understandably upset at the news, but ..ultimately held no ill-will towards anyone over it. George O'Hanlon and Mel Blanc were similarly livid and they demanded that Waldo be re-cast, but to no avail. Andrea Romano was so offended that she demanded her name be removed from the credits. If it's any consolation, a few of Waldo's lines as Judy remain undubbed, notably, her line after falling through the holographic plant ("Uh-huh, I think so.") and an offscreen line during the reveal of the Grungees' underground city ("It's not just a city, it's their home", though some closed captioning attribute this line to Jane). In addition, Waldo's voice can still be heard as George's robot secretary.

[@averymerrick]

From IMDB: According to Iwao Takamoto in his 2009 book "My Life With a Thousand Characters", Hanna-Barbera had originally planned to only have pop singer Tiffany provide Judy Jetson's singing voice, in an attempt to add teenage marquee value to the film, while voice actress Janet Waldo, the original voice of Judy, recorded Judy's dialogue. However, at one point, somebody from Universal (whose name Takamoto never mentioned in his book) thought that the film would maintain more continuity and better publicity value if the entire role was re-dubbed with Tiffany. This instigated Universal's decision to have Tiffany replace Waldo.

I have a good candidate for a review video. Or at least for a Disneycember episode. _Rodger & Hammerstein’s Cinderella_ I watched the movie on Disney+. I really like the multicultural cast. In my opinion, it is very fresh, especially for a film adaptation of a classic fairy tale. But because of the multicultural cast, a certain part of the film is particularly worth discussing. It's the part where the prince wants all women in the country to try on the lost shoe. I understand why this part is included in the film. It's an important part of the original fairy tale. But I asked myself after watching: "Did the prince forget so quickly what skin color Cinderella has?"

It spooked me and I worried Elroy may have actually been hurt or killed. I also remember not liking the random romantic music video for Judy and the guy she just met.

[@Memelord2020]

Rudy-2 rapping is still less cringe than Porky Pig rapping in Space Jam: A New Legacy

[@PrometheanFlame]

I love this movie. I really enjoyed the music and even Judy's little romance with Apollo Blue. I kind of wish we had a live action Jetson's as a companion to the Flintstone's films.

6:06 That joke is very dark considering the context behind it. Still humerous.

[@KetwunsGamingPad]

I think what I keep getting surprised about with the Jetsons is how some of the tech is still quite timeless, like the robotics of it, the flying jets, the travelators (look up your regional equivalent) and several others. I think the obviously dated one is how the TVs were just because they are still in essence treated like old CRT TVs and not the expected flat screen or holographic screen we would realistically expect more from the future. However it was clear how much we wanted those TVs to evolve at the time.

My sister and I still say "got the sprocket locker key in my outer jacket pocket" like once a week any time anything having to do with keys or pockets comes up in conversation lol. I love this movie so much ❤️

[@thefantasticretroreviewer3941]

To be fair, this was a Guilty Pleasure movie in my opinion. Sure this film might have some flaws, but that really didn't stop me from liking the movie, since I still own a VHS copy of the film.

Exactly what we've all been waiting for: classic Critic.

Coincidentally enough , I was just watching the flinstones meets the jetsons review yesterday and was thinking “I wonder when doug will talk about the jetsons film “ , so this came as a pleasant surprise.

[@SuperGoker64]

I guess at this point he'd might as well review Rockin' with Judy Jetson

[@phen314]

I wouldn't have had Tiffany voice Judy, but she is such an underrated singer. Love her ballads in this.

[@Morgil27]

When I was a kid and the live action Flinstones movie came out, I remember wondering why they didn't do the same thing with the Jetsons.

[@CCaster2000]

Probably because of technological reasons.

[@StasherDragon]

Rented this as a kid, watched it, listened to it, sang along with it over and over and over again! Such memories!

[@SoraFan23]

Its 2021 and we still have no hover boots and no flying cars.

[@inukaiya1509]

Well we have the so called hover board. Does that count?

[@garfieldclarkjr2483]

OMG Thank you guys so much for reviewing this . Jetsons The Movie is one of my childhood favorites, yeah it's dated now but that's one of the reasons i love it . HB really stepped up their animation a little , even the music i still hum in my head from time to time so once again thank you NC With that being said please review THE WARRIORS

[@jayone8891]

this is one of those movies I watched on repeat as a kid. Damn near destroyed our VHS because of it. No regrets

[@yoda908]

The movie that got destroyed from me watching it on repeat was Dumbo for some reason. There's actually a hole during the elephant ecstasy trippy scene. DVDs obviously were invented by a parent.

[@JohnGoetzGaming]

I loved this review! No skits! No extras! Just a nice classic one with Doug and the wall!

[@rcfrandsen]

Finally!! I’ve been waiting for you to review this for almost ten years!

[@Father_of_Death]

Tiffany's music is what makes this movie not God awful. I have a boot of both soundtrack and commercial album and I always come back to the songs she sang. They're underrated.

[@micshork]

I hope he also covers the other Flintstones movies, especially he ones where Pebbles and Bam Bam are married and have kids.

[@ljdi1]

Not a bad idea. I hope he does Scary Godmother 2 and Underdog

15:05 I’d say that’s less “Take On Me” and more Pink Floyd’s The Wall.

16:01, What........the freak? That........that is....the most weirdest and strangest Animation Error I've ever seen. How in the world did I miss that when I watched the film?? So weird as freak.

[@pyronuke4768]

Tiffany's "You And Me" is one of her lesser known songs, but still a really good banger and my second favorite of hers. *This* is where it came from?!?

[@kriskropd]

Ahh - the good ol' 2060s - when everyone's grandmother had an e-girl phase.

[@HyrannoCraft]

16:49- to be honest I was thinking Nibbler not Slimer

[@HyrannoCraft]

Also I really think Doug should do a futurama review series (akin to the avatar and adventure time ones) the Critic could even review the movies (if you are reading this comment and ar unaware of them, they do exist) for a feburary review month called Feburama... or something... I dont know, I just thought it'd be cool for you to talk about the series.

[@alecosfan]

I respect his animation reviews more than anything

Now to wait for the 'Wedding of Pebbles and Bam-bam

[@oystersoup3434]

I remember The Wedding of Pebbles and Bam-Bam being really bad, haha. Most of it is just Fred being a boring drag of a dad and everything was needlessly dramatic.

[@brentparker7359]

The other thing I always found funny is that they introduced a character for the sole purpose of choking on smog, and they made it a robot! Maybe it can co-star with R2D2 in an anti-smoking PSA!

add in Robocop shooting at the smoker

There's was a rumors during the that time after the live action The Flintstones, the Jetsons was going be live action movie in early 2000, but never made.

[@manuelalbertoromero9528]

Was it a problem with the technology at the time?

[@YawleyG]

I have very vague memories of watching this movie as a toddler, so this was wild to experience again. Thanks!

You know what’s hilariously ironic? There’s an old Ask That Guy with the Glasses episode where AskThatGuy mocks a questioner for having watched The Jetsons Movie.

8:48 "this is our little Fergie" well I'm gonna assume that this movie predicted the future like 13 years after it came out, or Fergie stole her nickname from this
