Todd in the Shadows - Glitter (rus sub)

[@kats938]

"You've been clean and sober for years? Why didn't you call me, bitch!" is my sentiments exactly. I've never been taken away/sent away from my parents before, but I'd imagine I wouldn't want to know them if they were like Mariah's mother in this film.

[@ashen_roses]

Funny to hear Todd say that Terence Howard is miscast as an abrasive label manager.

[@tgraham2736]

You speak the truth Todd bless your pop music loving heart!

[@Ultrabalor]

No wonder it's on the IMDB Bottom 100 list.

[@beautyandtheoffbeats]

What I've learned from movies, if you make your manger your boyfriend it's going to end badly.

[@kats938]

I just realized that this happened to Mariah both in real life and in the film. I remember hearing abouy Tommy, her first husband/manager, was really controlling of Mariah's music and the way she dressed like the Dice character. Then after she divorced him, he was trying to sabotage her career until she switched record labels. For some reason, JLo was involved and that's why they have bad blood. Boy, the entertainment industry sure is something, huh?

[@beautyandtheoffbeats]

kats938 It sure does, also explains her obsession with butterflies. See felt trapped in her marriage," that's what butterfly symbolizes".

[@taffysaur]

It's like they tried to make a whole movie out of Human League's "Don't You Want Me?"

[@paperfroslass]

Oh my god, I can play the marimba!!!! I can seduce Mariah Carey!!!!

[@frederickshaibani5655]

+paperfroslass The kazoo thing killed me XD

[@PKMN37]

I never understood this double standard. Girl slaps a guy, nobody bats an eye. Guy slaps a girl, people are all over him. Your reaction shouldn't be based on what gender gets hit. No one should hit anyone in general.

[@PKMN37]

Alex True.

[@PKMN37]

***** That's true..

[@coldplayhetaly]

I actually do agree, no one should be slapping anyone, but unfortunately they're both tools. It's odd that the movie portrayed the man as the verbally controlling one, and the woman as the physically violent one though, so props?

[@coldplayhetaly]

Alex No no, I meant props for switching the stereotypical abusive relationship.

[@Htds9]

Normally I would agree with you but in this situation I wanted the guy to get punched so bad that i didn't care.

[@roflcopter_launchpad1116]

I was honestly more concerned over what happened to the magic age-defying cat than whatever those dipshits in the story were doing. THE KITTY IS O.K. 8D

[@Account_Not_Applicable]

Mariah Carey actually blames 9/11 for the movie under-performing, saying that it was the worst time for a movie to come out 'cause who'd wanna go to the movies after a tragedy like that. Like i get how that would make sense, you know, if it was a better movie, but seeing Glitter like no, Mariah, your movie just sucks.

[@wantonladyful]

So this movie is A Star is Born, but with a different title.

[@naturellebella]

I miss when Todd did movie-music reviews.

[@axelvoss9653]

I want that Mario statue so badly. :3

[@talcastle4656]

Where DID you get a Mario statue?

[@OddMike]

SHE KEPT THE CAT???

[@Saintnick90]

Mariah Carey in the early '90s looked more '80s than she does in this movie.

[@katedavis9239]

What's worse glitter or showgirls Ps I can't be the only one scared by the showgirls Cover

[@thedangerwich5476]

What a terrible movie, and is it just me or was the loanshark in the right kind of. I mean I'm not saying he should of killed him, but he did have an agreement.

[@Musicradio77Network]

+I'mNotCharlesBarkley SoDon'tBanMe This is why this movie bombed, because: 1. The movie was released on September 21, 2001 2. It came out 10 days after the 9/11 attacks including the World Trade Center's twin towers, and the twin towers was shown in "Glitter" which was the last time where this film was in there. I've seen twin towers in movies including "Saturday Night Fever" where it featured the opening shot of lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge until the opening credits starts. 3. It was Mariah Carey's only feature length film. I rather watch a better movie which is better than this one. "A Star Is Born" which was a pretty darn movie, and it starred Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson or the 1954 version with Judy Garland, or the original from 1937 with Janet Gaynor.

[@giuseppeianniello1998]

MTN Productions She also “won” the Razzie Award for Worst Actress in 2002 and in 2010 she was nominated for Worst Actress Of The Decade (lost against Paris Hilton)

[@davebooshty299]

12:42 Mariah still has that grey line smudge on her arm. lol

[@ThisGoose]

What was Todd saying underneath the HET?

[@kiberkirik]

1. NOPE. None of this informs the character at all! 2. NOPE. That scene affected nothing! 3. NOPE. The movie forgets about this completely! 4. NOPE. He's never mentioned again!

[@ThisGoose]

Thank you kindly.

[@LaurenAwesomesauce1]

Hey! Don't you bad mouth the marimba!

[@canadmexi]

I might bug people with this question but, song at 0:20?

[@carcosacommune]

Dice was shot in the shoulder.

[@kats938]

Maybe he bled out.

[@Ultrabalor]

+kats938 Or he's a hemophiliac.

[@PKMN37]

Mariah's basically a crash dummy in this movie. Her drunk mother, her career, even her break-up with her "romantic interest" affects nothing for her character. She doesn't grow, learn, or even CAUSE anything. It's Mamamia all over again. No, I take that back. Mamamia had a plot. It barely had conflict but it at least had a plot.

[@kats938]

Definitely a boring movie but not the worst thing in cinema history. I thought the music was okay.

[@killer92173]

My sister used to like this movie growing up. Now... not so much. Lol

[@chocoboko123]

Dude, marimbas are sexy.

[@DrGregoryHouseIT]

19:06 Mike and the Bots already tried that. It didn't work.

[@RyanStorey1231]

Mariah's acting, especially when trying to emote, resembles that of someone who just lost their car keys. That being said, as terrible as this movie is, the soundtrack album wasn't that bad. "Never Too Far" and "Twister" are great songs outside of this train wreck of a movie.

[@VoidKnightsc]

+RyanX1231 But...I'll instantly go into immense panic if I lost my car keys.

[@kats938]

+Void Knight Right. I start screaming expletives whenever lose my car keys.

[@RyanStorey1231]

kats938 Did I say "lose"? I meant "dropped". XD

[@Kari166]

It was in the movie.

[@Musicradio77Network]

I've seen "Glitter" once or twice on TV, but not in a theater or I didn't get the DVD, I taped it off of TV many year ago. It was an okay film, but the songs were great, and this was Mariah Carey's only feature length film, just like they did with Neil Diamond in the "Jazz Singer" back in 1980 which was also his only attempt at a feature length film and "Can't Stop the Music" with the Village People in their only attempt at a film, or prior to that was "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" with the Bee Gees with a special appearance by Earth, Wind & Fire. This film was released on September 21st, 2001, that was 10 days after tragedy stuck when both planes hit the twin towers of the World Trade Center and destroyed them one by one. But that was September 11th, 2001, and this was also the last movie that the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center was shown after it was attacked. thousands of people were lost in the building, and many of them survived. 10 days after 9/11, the movie didn't do very well. It was a great movie, but who cares.

[@lopezfan24]

Precious was probably the only good acting from Mariah Carey.

[@JaesadaSrisuk]

To be fair, she was only in the movie for about fifteen minutes.

[@Lilyanna298]

She was still good though.

[@tatehildyard5332]

Brian Griffin You mean "Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire". You have to say the whole title

[@TheGmoney4980]

"At her beginning, Mariah knew nothing but success"-Mr Shadow Todd. OF COURSE SHE HAD SUCCESS I N TUE BEGINNING! Mariah was BANGING TOMMY MATTOLA...CEO of a MAJOR RECORD LABEL!

[@sardiniapiedmont]

This makes no sense because even after they separated in 1997, she still had only number one singles up til Glitter

[@Tornado1994]

+TheGmoney4980 Nope. He never touched her. He worked her to the bone throughout their marriage. She recorded and performed 24/7 while married to him.

[@stokeswatkins6599]

TheGmoney4980 Rainbow, and Butterfly both sold over 9,000,000 copies and each had two #1 singles and that was after Mottola and Mariah separated

[@medes5597]

Stokes The Red Panda after he'd established her. Like, by that point the work was done and she'd be somewhat successful no matter what. I have no idea how you think that's a rebuttal. Record exec spends millions making sure his girlfriend is famous and successful. Is still famous and successful because he established her years later. And?

[@YearoftheRat84]

K I feel kinda dumb asking this but...I've never seen this entire movie, just clips so I am just not sure. Did they really have the nerve to have "I Will Always Love You" in this movie....or was edited in as a joke?

[@WordsFlowMagnetic]

Erin Kidd I think Todd just edited it in as a joke.

[@JennaLeigh]

Are you seriously asking that? Yes, it was edited in as a joke.

[@taffysaur]

Shake your chi-chi!

[@horaciosi]

(9:50-9:56) Iron Man 2 in a nutshell

[@taffysaur]

Oh, except the end is Purple Rain.

[@davebooshty299]

18:13 I thought her mom died in a fire in the beginning? lol

[@canadmexi]

I can't read the English text in 10:30.

[@kiberkirik]

+canadmexi Worst. Shopping montage. Ever.

[@YearoftheRat84]

+kiberkirik Thanks for translating :) I was wondering what it said too.

[@NJGuy1973]

If you're not performing "Under My Thumb," you cannot be cool while playing a marimba.

[@davebooshty299]

I like Mariah and i have this movie on DVD cheaply from years ago and i think its not all Mariahs fault , the hack carbon copy cliche story / script , overall presentation was boring flat and garbageish. As your other music review Video series here states at the end always Todd , "SHE" Deserves better. (:

[@TheSaro888]

cat????????????

[@dnutz4714]

nice transformers the movie and he man cut away Todd lol

[@DoubleAgents]

THIS guy saw the Nostalgia Chick naked. THIS guy.

[@Boobalopbop]

I watched this movie hoping it would be soooo bad it's good and it wasn't fun at all... It's just booooooring. Mariah's acting was atrocious and it was otherwise a whole lot of nothing. No laughs, no tragedy, no drama. It wasn't even fun to look at.. And it was supposed to be 80s and it was totally 90s.

[@spookyrosev6467]

Honestly I am fine with Mariah Carey it’s just she’s still a bit overplayed especially around Christmas

[@MsRandom303]

Several good movies could have been made with the loose ends here. But no, Mariah's people had to be lazy and make this totally plotless, empty, and weak.

[@dfm6868]

25th comment

[@vibeology9432]

I actually like this movie/soundtrack----and I am a fan of her 90s material. But after this movie- she made a lot of weak albums... Even Mimi is overrated as can be.

[@Kari166]

Nope, the movie is just that awful. XD

[@jorgepagan765]

FUCKING RUSSIAN SUBTITLES!!!!!!!! WHY ARE THEY THERE ANYWAY??!?

[@АнастасияПыхтина-ц3ы]

cause it made for russians, who don't know english >< you can watch original video
