Another awesome thing that is never said is the reason why the lizards never bit Stanley or Zero is bc it was revealed earlier in a flashback that the yellow spotted lizards don’t like the onions Sam has and that’s all the two boys ate on the mountain !

I absolutely love such movies in which obscure stories of ancestors and the mistakes made by them are connected to the people of today and how they solve those mistakes. This story really gave the important message that every cloud has a silver lining, ie, every bad has some good. Stanley the fourth finally took off the curse from his family.

[@grizzly_manbanimation8436]

I’m sorry to be that one nitpicker, the video is great overall, but there are some serious facts you got wrong. The first one is the kid in the opening that got bit by the snake didn’t die. It’s not clear if he died in the hospital at any point or not but all they did say when Stanley arrived was he wouldn’t be returning because he was still in the hospital. Next, when you said that Sam lost his mule so he had to get a boat. That is most certainly not true. I don’t know if you said that for censorship but what actually happened was after the town found out about the interracial relationship between Sam and Kate, not only was the school burned down, but there was a manhunt for him. We saw him try escaping on his boat, which he actually had prior to his mule, Mary Lou Dying, and she was actually killed by that mob. This happened moments before Sam was shot while he was fleeing. And third zero didn’t ask if there were stars on the shoes he asked if there were red X’s.

Pointing out glaring mistakes in those recaps is like complaining about a piece of bone in a burger patty at mcdonalds. Like, it's cheap af crap that barely deserves to be called "food" on a good day, so of course it's gonna be severely lacking. Still tastes nice enough to eat occasionally, but there's no point in complaining about the quality, everyone knows that there was not a single high quality ingredient and not a single decently-paid employee involved in any part of its creation. Same thing with the movie recaps, takes probably like 10 minutes to create one - use one ai to write the script, use a second one to turn the script into voice, and maybe even use a third one to automatically create title, thumbnail, and so on, then upload the video to KZbin. Of course they're gonna get things completely wrong most of the time, but getting a complete, good, and accurate summary of movies is not what we're here for, we're here for cheap and easy entertainment. If we weren't, we would have already left. Now the only question is how far they can drop their quality and how far they can raise their prices/amount of ads before most people actually decide that they'd rather leave and do something else instead.
