My four all-time favorite musical numbers from this movie have always been: The Riff-Off(15:58 - 18:13) , the Bellas "Pool Mashup"(34:55 - 35:40), and the Treblemakers and Bellas finals(36:59 - 40:42). 😊

I'm so glad Greg GOT IT. he had the exact same experience watching this movie as we the girlies did back in 2012. in hindsight, the movie has bizarrely and hilariously problematic jokes but they really nailed the music and Anna Kendrick's voice brings chills to even toughest of grumps

[@jumptrash]

the problematic jokes honestly elevate it for me. just the insane out of pocket remarks throughout the movie when you least expect them get me every time

[@junehoneycrisp]

I can't wait for him to watch Barbie when it comes out

[@tlf2818]

I don't think the jokes were problematic. The movie is silly and the characters are supposed to be goofy. The movie cracks jokes about itself and it regards its own absurdity head-on, but in a lighthearted way. I love it.

Greg’s chills and holding back tears is called collective effervescence and it’s pretty amazing it still works across media like film without even having to be there.

[@darthyoda0662]

I still maintain that Anna’s character and the Ginger Woman should have been the endgoal couple as they have the best chemistry in all 3 movies

Bechloe forever

[@allura9163]

It’s so easy to get annoyed with Aubrey, but I have to always remind myself that she has a military dad who is very strict and is played as the typical ‘if you’re not the best, then what’s the point of doing it’ type. No participation awards with those kinds of dads. He’s the ‘you always have to be the best at what you do, otherwise you’re a failure’ kinda guy. My half siblings military dad is the same. Which explains why his daughter is such an anxiety riddled mess who freaks out and panics if even one little thing goes wrong.

[@kevincarvalho5054]

I absolutely love Greg's reaction to this movie, not a lot of guys like it but I love them, they are so much fun.

2nd is my favorite of the trilogy

[@michelle6337]

Lilly really does have the best lines. There is a line in Pitch Perfect 3 that genuinely had me crying in the theater because it was so ridiculous but also very on brand for her character.

[@erinsovereign2401]

So glad you get the Brittany Snow/ Anna Kendrick chemistry in it! They ended up winning an award for best movie chemistry and there's a crazy amount of people who ship their characters - never google Bechloe, it'll take you down the rabbit hole.

[@junereed2586]

I don't know why they added the quiet girl, but I'll never get over how funny she is. Seriously lmao

[@ImAlsoMerobiba]

Selfish take: I hope you and Sally can react to the second one sometime soon, and don't have to wait for her to visit again. I just can't wait for you guys to watch the sequels.

[@roastveggies]

Greg's barely-able-to-contain-himself excitement is EVERYTHING to me

[@angiepeterson1282]

The arranger for Pentatonix did work on this movie and PTX made a cameo in the second one, along with a bunch of other groups that competed on the Sing Off.

[@coldflamebluedragon196]

The Riff Off is such a popular singing game that people do it in real life

[@thenerdywave2007]

Always great to see Greg and Sally doing a movie reaction together

[@kirawise1701]

If you really want to be blown away by Anna Kendrick’s singing (and also cry for an entire film), you should watch The Last Five Years, truly an incredible musical, one of my favorite soundtracks to listen to!

[@thebronzeage23]

You guys NEED to watch the 2nd movie 😂😂 Edit: You would also love The Greatest Showman! Easily one of my favorite musicals!

Seeing Greg absolutely loving music themed movies/shows makes me want to see him react to Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist. Skylar Astin is also in that one. 😂

The fact that you guys don’t know Skylar Astin is is absolutely bananas to me. Love that man, he’s in one of my favorite shows Zoey’s Extraordinary Playlist (also a musical)!

Omg I forget he was in that show. Now I want them to watch it, since Greg has already seen CXG.

Yes! Greg will cry and get chills every second of that show.

[@footyfan101ful]

Have you seen him in So Help Me Todd?

[@itzelwisteria1819]

Skylar Astin and Ben Platt are the highlights of this movie for me. Both starred in some of my favourite musicals, Dear Even Hansen and Spring Awakening, and watching them together (plus Anna Kendrick) is my idea of a Infinity War level crossover hahaha

[@SA-ux6kc]

Greg's such a pure cinnamon roll with his reactions, love seeing Sally back in person

[@n.q1158]

Fun fact: Vader isn't technically father in German, the word is actually "Vater" so very close but not exactly the same. The spelling "Vader" is actually Dutch, but there it's pronounced very differently than the English do it with Darth Vader. Still, as a German, I did indeed guess the plot twist before I ever saw Star Wars bc of that close association lol Fun reaction, thank you!

[@aizuddinghaffarud-din9365]

Can't believe this movie already 10 years of released and my favorite movie since our senior hood.❤❤❤

[@kathyastrom1315]

Not just Pentatonix, but several other acapella groups who had competed in The Sing-Off.

[@pochakila]

Fun fact Ester Dean who is in Pitch Perfect was a writer for the Rihanna song S & M so she was able to sing that part in the ending scene.

[@bradybeckley3343]

Fun fact: the reason the Aussie guy at the radio station said Becca could take the night shift was explained in a deleted scene. He asked Becca to go party with him or something along those lines and at that club, he told Becca that Jesse (Skylar Astin's character, roommates with Ben Platt) had talked very highly of her music and really grilled him about letting her do it, so that's something I feel is worth noting.

Thank you!

He's actually British.

[@charlienerd]

[@MrFilbot]

I just realized that Chloe wasn’t with the girls in that final scene there. Because she supposedly was gonna graduate. So they wrote her back in for the sequel.

[@Jm-qr8js]

What makes this movie so great is not just that they are the peak of comedy in musicals, it’s the nostalgia and warm of falling in love with this characters and loving people that loves music

Skylar Astin has been one of my favourites ever since Spring Awakening

[@AngelGroves]

YAY! Salllyyyy! Always a fun time with her (looking forward to the MJ short film)! This movie pleasantly surprised me, as well ,when I first saw it a couple years ago. A fun, feel-good, easy watch, with some great talent and mash-ups. Great reaction, you two. I adore your intros together.😂 So much fun.

[@ReelRejects]

Thank you so much Angel! And keep kicking ass on your channel!!!

[@kathywhite9411]

I love that Greg loved this SO much!! He’s the real deal!🙌❤️ I get chills watching this,too- the music is too good!!

[@TheRealZOLO1]

[@dambookworm13]

So glad you enjoyed! Honestly one of my comfort movies! The jokes and music HIT every time!

[@eseschannel12]

Skylar Astin is in Zoey’s extraordinary playlist and I know you would love it. Its a feel good show kinda like Ted lasso and it’s a musical It’s so good. Makes me cry so much at the end of season 1

[@claudiacuilbheir1182]

I get you, Greg! I don't cry watching sad scenes, but I weep when people win some kind of competition and make their dream come true 😂

[@sivonni]

The fact that so many people don't know who Skylar Astin is (Jesse), a literal Broadway star, really bothers me. He's also been in tv series and other movies. But he's pure talent and no one recognizes him. It would be one thing if they didn't recognize any Broadway stars but that's where they know Ben Platt from. Also, Anna Kendrick got her start on Broadway as a child star.

[@이마크-r8e]

The shoutout to Crazy Ex-girlfriend shoutout is such a nice touch! Loved it so much!

[@jaycutie09]

Fun fact. This movie was filmed on LSU’s beautiful campus. We even got first viewing on campus before it went to theaters. GEAUX TIGERS😁💛💜

I genuinely loved your reaction to this and how much you two enjoyed this. Took me back to my first time watching this in theaters, and how much I enjoyed it. Thank you, really didn't know how much I needed this today. I always appreciate your genuine reactions to stuff. Not a spoiler, but Pitch Perfect 2 and 3 are not as good as this. This one is a classic. But they are still worth a watch. Cause I am here for yalls reaction!

[@GrinningLikeaDelicateJamesDean]

That’s a bold take, considering most of the fandom seems to put the second one above the first one. But, I too, think the first is the best and the third one is honestly second best to me-I know, that’s a hot take lmao

[@JackieWarner13]

This movie will always be a favourite watch of mine. I saw the trailer back in like 2012 here in Australia & was like a musical, the girl from twilight & Rebel Wilson? Hell yeah. Always have fun watching it & fun song choices. The Trebles are my faves love me some Skylar Astin & Ben Platt. Also in #2 Ben and Skylar were meant to be used a bit more but they changed some of the script after filming & had to refilm somethings bc they cut out storylines so they aren't in it as much.

[@pe8268]

It's sooo good seeing someone enjoy this movie the same way as me. The final performance still makes me emotional every time. I really hope you get to react to the second one together as well, it has its flaws but I love it just as much. There's some really fun surprises in there ;)

[@AkodoNoEyes]

Around the 40 min mark you talked about how the Aubrey character had her hair down and didn’t a few seconds before, she litteraly took her hair out and shook it out.

[@clevelandcbi]

Spent a few minutes looking to see if someone spotted that. Well done

[@ajvaldez42]

I was just about to recommend Crazy Ex-Girlfriend to Greg when he realized Skylar was in it and flat out recommended it himself. The reason why Pitch Perfect is *my* second favorite movie IS the humor. It came out right at the tail end of my uni life and it got SO MANY things right. 😂 I think it's the Bridesmaids for the collegiate crowd. The hot TA-type who forgets about your existence because they think they're adults now, the prejudiced international roomie, the uber-horniness, it's all PERFECT! 👌

[@whoissabal]

Greg is adorable in this reaction 🤓

[@besupaaa]

He was giggling through the whole thing.

This movie definitely came out of nowhere. I remember sitting down like what is this about and me and family loved it. And yeah Elizabeth Banks and the another announcer are very underrated in this movie. All their one liners are great.

Skylar Astin was also one of the originals in Spring Awakening with Lea Michele and Jonathan Goff. He did an episode of Girls. These were the early appearances. He has the most effortless belt. Next to Ben Platt of course. Who is just a vocal genius. Aaaand theater geeking out. Anyway. Anna Kendrick is fabulous as always. I’m glad y’all watched this and laughed when things were funny.
