Same. I was just going to type something like that. LOL

[@Gretchaninov]

It might not have much of a "plot" but I think it has some very emotional moments and nice messages. Like the way mothers need their children as much as their children need them, the philosophy of turning a weakness around into a strength and looking on the positive side, the way a symbol or totem can help you gain confidence (Dumbo's feather), etc. I think it's very insightful, if you're paying attention.

[@raydunakin]

@Torchy Brown Not all blacks were slaves in the USA in the 1800s.

[@raydunakin]

@Torchy Brown Actually the Civil Rights Act of 1866 first made blacks full citizens of the USA. After this was overturned by the Supreme Court in the infamous Dred Scott case, the 14th amendment was enacted, giving blacks full citizenship. This was followed by the 15th amendment in 1870 which ensured them the right to vote. Furthermore, the first black U.S. Senator was Hiram Revels, elected in 1870. Blanche K. Bruce was also a black U.S. Senator, serving from 1875 to 1881. (BTW, both of these Senators were Republicans.) These are facts, not "whitewashing history".

[@raydunakin]

@Torchy Brown I notice that you have ignored the 14th and 15th amendments, which did in fact make blacks full citizens under the law. This is more than enough to disprove your original statement that "blacks were slaves in the 1800s, we were not Americans."

0:01 in, and I'm already laughing at "motion pict-chah" XD

[@KathrynsWorldWildfireTracking]

You'll be-ah stah, chicky-baby!

[@RedStickInc]

I love that the computer has been replaced with a typewriter

[@pratyushranjan4924]

i noticed it too.

[@jazzmusicstops374]

I went through 2-3 VHR tapes of this when I was 2-4 years old. Seeing certain parts of this movie (especially Casey Junior coming down the track) is like having a fever dream in the best way possible.

[@Jiff321]

God this movie is insane lol.

[@ethanrhine5944]

Me: How’re you going to have a pitch meeting for a movie in the early 40s? Ryan: Super Easy, Barely an Inconvenience

[@piplup10203854]

2:12 I am so glad you mentioned that. Saw the movie with Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga and I was like isn't there already a movie called. "A Star is Born." oh there is got it lol

[@aryssamansfield9735]

Way more than one. There's at least 4

[@markbrisson2102]

There wa the 1930s with Janet Gaynor/ Frederick March, 1950s with Judy Garland/James Mason,1970s with Barbra Streisand/ Kris Kristopherson, 2010s with Gaga/Cooper.

[@earthwormandruw]

I inly knew of the Bradley Cooper one. Now I want to see the original. The first original that is, not the second or third originals.

[@mr.person4050]

Can you do a Back to the future pitch meeting please.

[@beemcc4148]

Dude for like a straight year these things would pop up on my youtube thread. And I never wAtched any of them bc i thought they looked weird with the eyes. Finally gave in, and Pitch meeting is easily my favorite thing on KZbin!!!!

"By whispering the word"climax" into a sleeping Man's ear more than you would expect from a kid's movie"😂🤣😅

[@hydrothemc]

"That's probably always be an ok decision. Lock it in"

[@aaaadit5155]

Do 2001: A space Odyssey next!!

[@jmchez]

Dr. Strangelove

[@Lensman864]

@Patrick Kiani Very few 12 year olds watch this series; it's for adults.

[@notbrucewayne9849]

The origin of the word “Tight” 0:23

[@samuel1624]

4:36 Lock it In gets me every time

[@sharonjuniorchess]

I like the fact that the interview was done in black & white. That's how everything was in those days unless you went to the cinema. Can you imagine these guys pitching for a silent movie? Piano music & screencards Lol. This was the first film I saw aged 6 and can remember getting quite upset at how cruel the other animals were to Dumbo and had to be persuaded that the second half had a happy ending. The crows were a scream.

[@Danka42]

I could see Emperor's New Groove pitch meeting. "It must be hard for a llama to escape a pit full of crocodiles!" "Actually it's gonna be super easy, barely an inconvenience."

[@christiansedmack7092]

Please do a pitch for inception pretty please it’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience

[@danielboone3770]

This is hilarious! Especially with the part where you talked about Dumbo tripping and say oops

[@redguy346]

It is official producer guy and writer guy are immortal

[@c.t.1893]

"No, I have bad dreams all the time, even when I'm awake" Funniest part of the sketch. Love Ryan 😂😂😂

[@user-vn7ce5ig1z]

Thank you for using "inception" correctly and knowing that it doesn't mean nesting like everyone else seems to. ¬_¬

[@andygreen3575]

People think inception means nesting? Where are these people? I've never met any.

[@chappalsouls]

I'm sure they're referring to the plot of the movie Inception when they use inception to mean nesting.

[@lordkarasu2263]

I am actually scared of the idea of the pink elephants scene with it being live action and with Tim burton attached? Scary...

[@dangibbins5435]

"No one's going to remake A Star is Born, what would be the point of that?" got me laughing pretty hard.

[@finnanima2413]

Probably that so little about the entertainment industry has changed over all these decades

[@jeffbaer5851]

The irony of the Pitch Meeting staff to think they needed to talk and cut FASTER. Glorious.

[@leahtheanimationfan40]

I've always loved Dumbo. It was one of my favorites when I was little. This pitch meeting had me laughing my ass off 😂

[@DerekJohnsonMuses]

Love this! Would be great if you can do more pitches for older movies.

[@taisenscoolstuff732]

I love the black and white style for this meeting! Edit: Omg! Thanks everyone for over 200 likes! This goes to show that black and white is still in! Edit 2: Omg! Screen Rant, thanks for the love!!!

[@ft359]

Even though the movies in colour lol

[@LexCrafttoons]

Don't forget the fact that there is a typewriter in the background instead of a computer. :)

[@spikeoramathon]

The typewriter in the background is tight!!!

[@spikeoramathon]

@@ft359 oh, the animations were in color, but the world was still in black and white, until sometime in the 60's... ;)

[@jmer3536]

The world was actually in black and white back then

[@Mecharnie_Dobbs]

4:32 "The main crow is called Jim Crow." "Does anyone say that name in the movie?" "No" "Is he listed as Jim Crow in the credits?" "No" "Well, put those pieces of paper, you're holding, in a safe place. Because in 70 years, people are going to be interested in what the main crow was called for some reason."

[@bewtnewt]

😐🤦

[@Lawsonomy1]

0:25 You would be surprised how old some expressions are: Cool - 1930 Groove - 1920 Tipsy - 1800 Tight (for musical performances) - 1680 Barely an inconvenience - 1616

[@joesquires6519]

Bro that first line had me in tears
