[@robbiewalker2831]

@Caitlyn Carvalho Fun fact: Did you know Tara Strong, best known for Timmy Turner in the Fairly OddParents, and Twlight Sparkle from MLP:FiM, was originally casted to voice Red Riding Hood? It was a last minute decision to change the actress to get more attention. All is not lost for Tara, as she would voice Red Riding Hood in a different media: Shrek video games, where Red Riding Hood has a more prominent role than her Shrek-movie counterpart, even to the point of acting very similar to her Hoodwinked counterpart, making me believe “Hoodwinked” Red was originally gonna share the same voice as Tara’s “Shrek” Red, as well as Twilight Sparkle.

[@stargazer1778]

In defense of Kirk's story, Bongo was there right after Kirk got stolen from which probably tipped off Flippers that it was the bunny and probably the only act interact that makes Bongo look suspicious.

[@hikeilokei]

Oh I actually like that theory!

[@LoneSilverW0lf]

And the fact that Bongo was at the ski competition just ‘hanging out’ when he gave directions to Wolf not too long beforehand. That bunny gets around.

[@HeavensBane53]

One fun discrepancy between Wolf and Red's stories that I don't think I've ever seen someone point out: the cliff Wolf falls off into the river is a lot higher in his story than it Red's. Not a significant detail at all, but just a neat little touch that shows actual effort and creativity in the movie's visuals, even if they aren't the best looking.

A good Animated Film doesn't need the best or even great Animation to be a fantastic Movie as long as the script is good (In The Very Least) the editing is on point, the voice acting is at least better than good, and the models/sets look nice, in the very least.

The writing in Hoodwinked really is just something else. From the troubles and mysteries by the parachute to the small things like why Red didn’t tell she beat Wolf, but Wolf told it because as you said, he believes in journalistic integrity. I can’t remember another animated movie where there is that much attention to detail👏👌

Wait are you gonna tell me Zootopia strait up stole the idea of fox-repellent from Hoodwinked? Also this very specific way of animating fur reminds me of like every animated movie in the $5 movie bin at Walmart. Something about it just screams modern day budget knockoff of a Pixar film.

[@reinweissritter]

Eh, with the whole bag of anti fox products the Hopps had, I'd say it falls into the inspiration category. Which makes it even more hilarious and cool that an early 2000s low budget movie might be part of the inspiration for a disney movie, regardless if it was just a very tiny part. Though I'm probably stretching it here lmao.

The spray repellant thing is older than Hoodwinked. In the Batman live action series from the 60's either Batman or Robin uses shark repellent spray in a shark attack ;)

I love Hoodwinked. It's an excellent movie riding off the coattails of Shrek and I think the characters move like animatronics and that's charming. Also I'd recommend you review the Madagascar trilogy, especially if you watched the Penguins of Madagascar as a kid like I did. The main four characters of the movies are a plus-size black Jewish woman, a biracial zebra, a homophobic gay, and David Schwimmer.

[@LloydTheZephyrian]

I'm sorry... A homophobic gay? What, are they just gay but refusing to believe they are, and do everything they can to try and convince themselves they aren't gay by hating gay people?

[@ajerqureshi6411]

I remember reading somewhere that because the production team knew right away they weren't going to master the 3D animation like the big name studios of Dreamworks and Pixar, they intentionally decided to treat the animation process as akin to the stop motion specials you see on Christmas, hence the plasticy jagged movements. Knowing that the look of the movie was intended to be reminscint of this cheap animation style really does help me swallow the animation, but thankfully the movie's writing and performance work really carries the whole thing.

It cracks me up how the film's visual flaws actually kinda enhance the villain song ending. As Wolf says, "the choreography was terrible." Part of that is just how stiff the character models are for the henchmen, which on top of them being out of sync and generally emotionless really brings the absurdity of the moment over the top

6:36 - No, Red *DOES NOT* kill the bird (a duck).-- we can hear him say "I'm okay" after the crash. 7:07 - As far as I am aware, we are given no clear indication of Boingo's orientation. For anything we know, he could be straight, bi, pan, or entirely disinterested in anything but his evil villain plans. ...I had always assumed the goat's name was pronounced as, "JAY-peth"... Also, Kirk the Woodsman-- I mean, Actor-- is a fun character. The goat Japheth could even more easily have been cut without impairing the story, but such side characters add color and entertainment. Besides, as another commenter noted, the whole idea was to include ALL the core characters' perspectives. The fact that he knew almost nothing about anything was part of the joke.

[@filipvadas7602]

[@thecornerkid402]

The director revealed how the cast got so stacked in a podcast a while back. Apparently, the script fell into Patrick Warburton’s hands and he loved it. He called up the filmmakers and asked to do it. But it went beyond that. He thought the script was amazing and loved the directing team. He knew they needed help with casting because he was aware of their budget and he basically went recruiting for them. He’d go to parties and pitch the movie so hard that the directors would literally wake up to voice mails from actors saying, “Hi. This Andy Dick. We haven’t met but I was talking to Patrick last night and he said you’re working on one of the funniest scripts he’s ever read. If you’re free for lunch, I’d love to see if there’s a role for me.” Most of the actors asked to be part of the movie because Patrick Warburton was so passionate about it.

[@Hopper_Arts]

I love this movie and even today i'd put it up there as one of my faves, the humor, the characters, the story, everything just fits for me, except the animation, but idc it's still iconic. Also the spanish dub is incredible, i highly recommend it to my fellow bilingual folk

[@sunnyassaf9084]

in my 6 year old mind, the reason that the Woodsman didn't have a huge role was because Hoodwinked really likes flipping the original narrative of the og Little Red Riding Hood (ex. the Wolf not being the actual villain), and in the original story the Hunstman was The Hero, he plays a huge role and saves the day, so they flipped his role to be small.

It's so weird to see someone on youtube roughly my age making this type of content. Every time you mention how old/young you were when a movie came put I have to go through the same process of "That can't be right" [Look up release date] "Oh wow, it is" I simultaneously enjoy and hate it.

I'd say petition to reanimate Hoodwinked with the same voice cast and the best of the visual gags

[@hikeilokei]

It would be like 3 times more expensive since the voice cast is much more popular these days.

Im so glad that hoodwinked is finally getting it's deserved recognition

God I love this movie and it’s great! I never really cared or was worried about the animation (besides the pretzel children and Kirt’s hair) and loved every character (besides Kirt, I liked him. He’s an okay Himbo.). I would always sit down to watch this movie, CN or DVD. It’s one of the movies from my childhood that I held so closely to my heart. Thank you for giving it the respect it deserves! I especially love the song “Critters have feelings” and would literally play the animated music video on repeat just to listen to it since I have the DVD. About the sequel, it’s fine. It’s completely different story structure-wise from the first and I do like it. Funnily yet unsurprisingly enough, the villain(s) there is similar to this one’s.

It's Kirk, not Kirt

“What kinda candles are those?” 👉🧨”Dee-nah-me-tai” “AAÆA/\AAGGH!!” 💀🤣

The animation is the worst part about the movie, and yet it is NOWHERE near the worst animation in a movie.

I think the only thing I truly hate about this movie is the songs. Not that they're horrible exactly but when you have have four younger siblings that want to sing the goat song ad nauseum then you will know true hell

[@drrichardew7878]

Slightly off topic but I love David Ogden Stiers so much and seeing him in this movie is such a treat. Also keep it up with the great reviews bro :D

Fun review, I'm glad this movie is getting the recognition it deserves. But also - mentioning every other song and leaving out the absoloute BOP that is 'Tree Critter' is a straight crime
