Thrax is the most underrated villain in Western Animation.

[@MisterBlightside]

Hakkem Johnson I would agree with you if it weren’t for Ertha Kitt’s Ysma lol.

[@michaelstrong5383]

His very first scene where he kills some of the cells used to creep me out when I was a kid.

[@shockblast20]

So true I always loved him as a kid. He has a cool designed and Fishbourne played him with such swag.

[@PACKERMAN2077]

@@shockblast20 it always struck me that he played it as if he had been an agent instead of Morpheus.

[@Tan87ful]

Yep lol

[@anamonoke]

Thrax was a mix between Anthrax and the Spanish Flu, that is why the "Spanish" Germs knew him and referred to him as "The Red Death".

[@michaelstrong5383]

Even as a kid, I never liked the Bill Murray scenes. I always thought the animated scenes inside his character's body were more entertaining and fun.

[@eatatjoes6751]

Me too. This is why I never watched the entirety of the movie - the animated parts were so fun and entertaining.

[@PACKERMAN2077]

I actually would have liked to see an entire movie from his perspective... But it would basically just be caddyshack at the zoo

[@michaelstrong5383]

​@@PACKERMAN2077 The thing is Bill Murray can be funny and charming when given the right role, but in this movie, he's just disgusting and that's it. Even the gross out scenes are too much.

22:50- Good God, this scene scared me SO bad as a kid! 😨 I actually believed Thrax was based off a real illness for a while, which made me paranoid that I'd eventually look like this if I got it. Fun fact: *"Thrax's name comes from 'Anthrax', though Thrax cannot be likened to any real-life virus. However, the symptoms resemble an exceptionally violent version of Scarlet Fever or hyperpyrexia."* *Source:* villains.fandom.com/wiki/Thrax_(Osmosis_Jones)

17:45 Frank was clean and had a high paying job at the factory, but once he threw up on a teacher, he went viral and got fired from the lab. He had to take a 90% pay cut and let go of himself after that. Osmosis Jones was the one who made him throw up.

12:32 For those who are confuse, Yes Korey did ate a Hot dog that was in a street next to a drain while he was drunk, true story and we are grateful he suffer no side effects.

Cells at work (anime) would be a better comparison as Inside out is based in emotions...but that just my 2 cents...

[@michaelstrong5383]

@@jSplat16 I just watched all the episodes of Cells at Work on Netflix and that's a cute show. You're absolutely right on comparing both that and Osmosis Jones, except there's no human character where it all takes place in.

[@user-dr2yz8um3d]

Osmosis Jones officially turns 20 today!!! I remember my family and I saw it together and my mom rented it in California in hotel room Shame it bombed at the box office but still one of my favorite summer flicks Love the voice actors; Chris Rock, Brandy, David Hyde Pierce, William Shatner, and Laurence Fishburne I spent forever trying to find the soundtrack, it was actually my first introduction to Craig David Nostalgia Critic thought it was okay; doesn't know if it wants to be a legitimately clever adult film or a giggle fest for two-year-olds There are some clever ideas in this; the designs are great, the environment itself is pretty cool, and sometimes, even some of the puns are kind of clever The animation as well is so gorgeous to look at, it’s just so colorful and flowing But the story is every boring buddy cop flick, the live-action stuff is awkwardly done, and a lot of the humor just isn’t that funny The live action scenes are lethargic but the animated portions are amazing Funny they ended up making a tv show The movie holds a lot of relevance today teaching kids to be clean and eat the right way, good way to teach them how a virus works

[@fangal12]

This is the second time you have attributed Shanice's "I Like Your Smile" to Brandy. The first time was during your Temptation review back in the Spill days. Brandy sang "I wanna be down" "Best Friend" "Sitting up in my Room". Put some respeck on both of their names damnit! LOL

Osmosis Jones got me through my recovery from surgery in the hospital. Twice.in ‘06, I had a brain tumor removed. My parents brought a portable DVD player and my Osmosis Jones DVD. In in 2014, I had back surgery because of a tumor on my spine. That time, I had an iPad and have Osmosis Jones downloaded on it. Now, in this tough time, I’m gonna watch it again.

[@animeveteran]

I believe Thrax was a variation on something like Scarlet Fever, since he focused specifically on overheating the body.

[@edwardbevington9351]

Osmosis jones - hes one cell of a guy 👍 great tagline.

[@tonyj9743]

I like how Corey correctly called her Brandy, yet proceeded to sing a Shanice song.

The animated portions of the movie is what the entire movie should've been!

[@AngelLoeza]

I'm glad the series went full animatex

[@guthax30]

Thrax was the highlight of the film, i think...he was like an old-school slasher villain combined with some kind of cool street-gangster archetype.

[@muchlovegambine949]

Lol I loved this movie. It was one of my “sick” movies to watch. I had a bad immune system as a child. I remember wishing that a Tylenol would team up with osmosis and fix me lol

Where's Jones and Drix when the COVID-19 going wild

[@samuelbrown3405]

It's still such a trip to me that Thrax is voiced by Lawrence Fishburne. He sounds soooooo much more like Omar from The Wire.

[@looperloop3527]

I agree totally with Martin. I remember wanting to watch that movie but the fish was not in it that much at all. That's exactly the one thing I remember about that show.

[@andromedanebula7829]

Ahhh, one of my favorite movies growing up and still is, aside from the live-action scenes. The animation and creativity is what draws me to this movie, many years later.

[@k.delpino1124]

I liked this one. Knew about the children's book. Forgot that the Farelly brothers directed the movie. Voice-casting was cool and the soundtrack was dope. Brandy Norwood voiced a character and did a song called 'Open'. The message of the story was clear that taking care of yourself is so essential and everybody should relate.

26:51 The song “I like your Smile” was Shanice. Brandy had other hits, my fav was “Baby, Baby, Baby, Baby (Your so fine).

[@rmeddy]

I thought this was a cool and interesting premise. Lawrence Fishburne WAS GREAT

[@trentonhamilton645]

Originally this film was supposed to be rated PG-13, but given the Animation's production value, the studio did change it up Plus the Song "Summer in the city" from St Lunatics made a hit music video from BET's 106 Park where AJ and Free interviewed Aaliyah.

[@osmosisdarkdavid26]

[@Mentagasm]

No u need to show how Bill fucks up his body. And how many fucks he does not give. The animation actually shows what's goin on. You need both factors. Without Bill's parts the animation would make no sense

[@a_real_one2000]

David De Jesus I like the directors work me myself and irene still cracks me up. The tone is all over the place. Pick a side all live action or animation. As it is the movie feels disjointed.

[@KrazyC2008]

That's probably precisely why this movie bombed at the Box office. You know how Hollywood is they don't want anything that's educational or inspiring.

[@MrAspiringactor]

A movie that has not much to offer besides admittedly some good world-building, occasional moments of brilliance, and some good vocal performances but is bogged down by cliches and punny writing yet has some relevant commentary to what's going on in the world? This isn't the early 2000's version of Inside Out, this is the early 2000's version of Zootopia!

[@commonsensegaming1756]

Cells At Work is a good show about the body also. it is similar to this movie in some ways

[@CoNvErSeGiRl88]

12:30 that comment from Martin hit me hard. I went on a Voodoo tour around the French Quarter a few years ago and witnessed an annoying little girl around the age of 7-9 play in a greasy puddle near bourbon street. All the native Louisianans (this includes myself) gasped and gagged at the sight of this shit because we all know better. Her parents were embarrassed as hell because the guide stopped the tour and guided the group to the nearest bar so the little girl could wash her hands.

[@Jackie-McCann]

21:41 “Thrax can be charming sometimes.” Dude, if you only knew how big a fanbase this character has. 😆

[@ponyboy316]

Cells At Work is an Anime on Netflix all about human cells and the immune system. Each episode deals with a different common ailment and how the body reacts to it. It's really entertaining and super informative.

[@StardogChampion06]

I enjoy watching Osmosis Jones back in the day. My former best friend at the time gave me the movie. I like the gross humor, voice acting was good especially the performance from Lawrence Fishburne and surprisingly the film was somewhat violent though in PG cartoon mode. The soundtracks was awesome. Love the R&B tracks.

The villain in Osmosis Jones acts more like a bacterial infection than a virus. Viruses hijack the DNA/RNA of living cells to replicate, a movie about a viral infection would be more like a zombie apocalypse.
