I definitely agree that Candace and Doofenshmirtz are the real main characters of the series, and the series finale “Last Day of Summer” definitely reflects this, having them properly meet for the first time and really highlighting the parallels between them. I definitely recommend checking that out if you haven’t already. Also yay I got all of the trivia right haha

[@totallynotjeff7748]

Agreed

[@alphaz4741]

Candace is a worse character than either of her brothers. She's great, but they're fantastic.

[@Numbuh8578]

I disagree about Phineas and ferb themselves not having any character. Phineas is like a very naive, oblivious, optamistic kid that just likes to spend time with loved ones and have fun. And ferb may not talk alot but his actions speak louder than words and is kinda a bit of a ladies man, for example he's hitting on Vanessa in the first meap episode. Ferb may not speak alot but tom and jerry don't speak but are fun characters.

[@knarrow0222]

Agreed 100%

[@Numbuh8578]

@@knarrow0222 and the thing about them being able to do almost anything might be the point, its done in a more cartoony way kinda like Looney tunes. and it lets the creators come up with silly and fun creations but it never felt like a Gary Stu kind of way.

[@alphaz4741]

There are also semi-verbal and non-verbal people in real life. They have much personality than even that.

[@Nakia11798]

I really liked Phineas and Ferb episodes where the boys were given actual conflict. Like I was SHOCKED to see Phineas yell at Canadace in the one special. Of all the things I remember, that was a big one.

[@knarrow0222]

Time to throw my two cents on this matter of Phineas and Ferb and Rollercoasters. When it comes to whether Rollercoaster and Rollercoaster the Musical is better, I do side with you that Rollercoaster the Musical is the better of the bunch. And yes, both are flawed. Rollercoaster hasn't aged that much but it's not terrible by any means and Rollercoaster the Musical has the stock footage at the second half of it, But I do think Rollercoaster is important to the show because it is the pilot and the beginning of the show It's not great, but I do think it's important. But Rollercoaster the Musical was great and one of the best episodes of the show. But I do disagree with you guys a lot on two things. One is the music in Rollercoaster The Musical and I will admit this is a minor one since that tastes in music is subjective and that's fine. I personally think the songs are great. Sure some of them are not the show's best (Except for Carpe Diem and What'cha Doin? those songs were great.) but Back in Gimmelshtump, the Doofenshmirtz song, that song is hilarious. It's a minor thing but something I want to bring up. The other one however, is Phineas and Ferb being bland and boring. When I saw Phineas and Ferb the characters, they feel like fun likable characters and not as bland and boring as you guys make it out to be. I do agree with you guys that the characters aside from Phineas and Ferb like Candace and Doofenshmirtz are the better characters (Candace is my favorite character in the show) but I do feel that PnF do have thier funny moments as the show went on. I know some will disagree, but I still stand by it and I do feel that Phineas and Ferb do have character to them. Phineas does care about his family and friends and want to have fun with them, and while Ferb doesn't talk most of the time, he makes up for it with his actions. But that's just my opinion, on the matter. Regardless, it is interesting to see non Phineas and Ferb fans discuss the show. Also Phineas and Ferb never reached seasonal rot in my opinion.

[@giovanniorellana2200]

I hope Monster's gives us more of his amazing Doof impression!

[@HackiePuffs]

Giovanni Orellana what time stamp???

[@Blappyboop]

I think the worst example of seasonal rot is either family guy or fairly odd parents.

[@Lauren_210]

I agree. The first 5 seasons of Fairly Odd Parents were entertaining and good, but then after that, you can just stop from that point on.

Phineas and Ferb both have more personality than most main characters. It's infuriating that so little people resonated with them, I guess it's their personalties aren't flashy enough.

What a neat little idea.

[@BlythePennyBicycle21]

@@NICKtendoReviews I'm not sure they could do that since that's a 4 part arc in season 4, when the show became more story driven, and they would have to catch up with watching the other episodes, including the 4 SpiderVerse episodes in season 3. If they have seen the entire show, then it's possible.

[@maxshapiro078]

Can we stop clumping Jungle Book together with the Disney remakes nobody likes? It was really good!

[@maxshapiro078]

andykishore If it’s good, who cares?

[@chuckjose9271]

between you and me i'm losing interest in these remakes already and i'm not gonna see them cause i won't give Disney any of my money!!! and i could start rants on how Disney's live action remakes are sucking my Likeness for this company down the drain and make me question WHY THEY HAVEN'T GONE BANKRUPT YET!!!!! >:(

[@maxshapiro078]

Cameron Dobson In my mind, a good movie is a good movie. Its status as a original film, sequel, remake, reboot or whatever is irrelevant to me and does not affect my opinions before watching it. And in the case of Jungle Book, I thought it was really good. I hated Maleficent, thought Beauty and the Beast was okay, think Aladdin is looking pretty meh and am cautiously optimistic about Lion King (never saw Cinderella). I only ever not see a movie when I personally don’t think I’ll like it-I’ll never hate something solely on principle. And if a remake isn’t good, it’s not like it nukes the original film from existence. I don’t like using terms like “necessary” or “justified” when describing films or any medium. Because technically we never NEED any film. If a piece of art is good, it deserves to exist. End of story.

[@chuckjose9271]

@@maxshapiro078 l'm still treading these awful remakes with a grain of salt however but it's not like there gonna throw the original films into the "Disney vault" forever as long as i live right?! i'm dead serious if they want us to delete the original films from our minds like Bloop! then i'm not gonna watch them cause there's so much better stuff in the world!

[@invaderpez12]

@@andykishore no movie is necessary. Only time a movie feels unnecessary is when its a bad film that does things worse than the original. And in a way, it was sort of necessary. In the sense that I see more reason to remake an older movie that might not have aged as well than Aladdin and B&TB which aren't as old

[@invaderpez12]

Lol I'm actually super used to hearing Tom Hank's brother as Woody. I worked for Disney and he does the voice for Woody in anything that isn't the movies. Honestly I identify with Tom Hank's brother as Woody more than Tom Hanks lol

[@invaderpez12]

Kinda gonna talk about the KH stuff since they mentioned it: There were never any FF worlds, just original worlds with FF cameos While it is a Disney game its a Square Enix game first so don't expect the Organization stuff to go away cause if it were it would just be a pretty basic Disney game. Director Nomura won't drop his creations so easily. The combat gets much better and while the story gets dumb, its a love it or hate it type of thing where many people love how dumb it can be or hate it. Honestly I prefer the Square Enix JRPG stuff and think the Disney stuff is tacked on.

16:50 Combat will get a lot better, no worries (...well, AFTER Chain of Memories. the card battle thing they use is something you either like or despise). KH2 feels great even today, and the PS4 port basically makes it perfect from a tecnical perspective; no load screens and upscaled to HD very well. The story... well, buckle up lol.

[@invaderpez12]

I actually thought the Jungle Book movie was pretty good. Had some flaws but was different enough from the original that i didn't mind it, and actually liked some elements they introduced. Will Smith Genie is getting flack moreso than B&TB and JB is cause it just looks so creepy and awful, CGI wise. At least Beast looked decent and the animals looked okay in JB

[@lennypayne4241]

I'm a die-hard Phineas and Ferb fan, but I totally agree with the fact that the title characters are extremely bland. The writers got rid of their "mischievous" personalities, when they thought "Annoying brothers are annoying to watch", but that just makes them boring. Episodes, where Phineas gets mad at Candace like "Summer Belongs To You", "Mission Marvel", and "Phineas and Ferb Save Summer" are the only times he ever gets any depth. Milo Murphy's Law seems to be falling into this same category, with Milo being "always happy, always doing right", and all of the likable characters are the people around him. Zack, Melissa, Sarah, Elliot, Cavendish, Dakota, Amanda, Doofenschmirtz, etc. Milo is just the generic glue that holds the show together.

[@knarrow0222]

I gotta disagree right there. I wouldn't go as far as to say that Phineas and Ferb are bland. Positive yes which I do find a big gripe, but not bland and boring. In my opinion, I do feel that they are fun likable characters who are fun to watch. Hell I would go as far as to say they do sometimes have thier own funny moments. Same can be said with Milo Murphy. I don't see him a generic charactrer at all. Unlike Phineas and Ferb though, Milo works in this regard because of Murphy's Law being there to kess things up but he keeps positive during the toughest of times which is something I do find relatable.

You know, I've had Kingdom Hearts described as a lot of things over the years, but "pretentious" is one of those things that will never not sound stupid. Like, I'm not going to say that Kingdom Hearts' story is anything incredible or whatever, but one thing it's NOT is pretentious. I fail to see how a conflict as basic as Light vs. Darkness is anything close to "pretentious." But whatever, I have my own opinions about Kingdom Hearts. Most of them are pretty damn positive.
