We're getting into twice the fun and double the trouble as we celebrate the official return of the Lohanaissance with a commentary to our ALL-TIME FAVORITE MOVIE, The Parent Trap (1998).

You’re not going to believe this but I was prepping for another reaction to this movie and then this dropped. RIP NATASHA RICHARDSON

[@katwebbxo]

This is my ultimate comfort movie. I was so sad to hear about Natasha Richardson when she passed. I always thought she was so elegant and beautiful. 💕

[@CWazBroadwayBandGeek]

Natasha Richardson would’ve honestly made the PERFECT Princess Diana in a biopic back then. RIP. She would be THRIVING. Everyone deserves a Chessy in their life. I ❤️ Lisa Anne Walter. Also the fact that both Lisa Anne Walter and Elaine Hendrix are besties…I need Lisa and Elaine to play wives in a Rom-Com.

[@niles8102]

Even as a 34 year old adult, trumpet girl makes me laugh 😅😅😅 that is such a Disney goof-ball moment.

[@Kindnessloveunderstanding]

Incredible movie moment 😂

[@riotgeek]

Wes' thirst for Dennis Quaid is both hilarious and adorable. This was such a fun watch along with you both! Love that you covered a non-horror/suspense movie, and a stone-cold CLASSIC at that!

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Nancy Meyers and the iconic cast MADE CINEMA HERSTORY

[@Bishopofsiloam]

I just realized when Hallie says to Annie after cutting her hair, "Honey, ya never looked better," she's imitating Chessie. 😭

[@jensrettberg7968]

Lindsay had such a chemistry with herself and played both characters so believably authentic and different, as a child for such a long time I believed she actually did have a twin.

[@adrianramirez8882]

When I was a kid this movie made me believe Lindsay Lohan was an actual twin and when I got older and I only saw articles about Lindsey I was like "where's her sister at?"

[@fallingawayfromthenorm]

My best friend and I watch this at least once when I visit her in her state each year, it’s one of our favorites and we can’t get enough of it! Any time I hear any of the songs from this movie I get emotional thinking about how much I miss her.

[@ezelldaniels6064]

SUCH A CLASSIC MOVIE. ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHILDHOOD FILMS ALONG WITH IT TAKES TWO. SO ICONIC! ❤

[@kayj8057]

I am English and a very harsh critic when it comes to Americans doing an English accent but I can confirm I have always been impressed by Lindsay’s, especially given how young she was! 👏

[@needles1987]

The little pipsqueak that wanted to deck Hallie is Nancy Meyers's daughter, Hallie, who was credited in the film as Lindsay.

[@tiffanya20]

I love this movie and It Takes Two with the Olsen twins.

[@namjoonswife3300]

"I HAVE CLASS AND YOU DON'T"💅🏾💅🏾💅🏾

[@marlainalindsey3279]

I love me some Lindsey Lohan ❤❤❤❤ I saw her interview on the Drew Barrymore show and Lindsey was gushing about her new baby boy❤❤❤❤ Wes you look so cute in that hat❤❤❤❤

[@tjhorsegirl]

Meredith's mother was the original Vicky from the 1960s Parent trap. Fun fact!

[@user-mm5bq1jr5g]

Mother is literally Princess Diana

[@fcannistraro2878]

Wes is ready to go stroll the vineyards of Parker Knoll and I wanna go with! 😊

[@anthony_castro710]

Would always watch this on repeat as a kid 🤣😭💯 absolutely loved this movie with all my heart

[@Chloe_prices_spliff]

As a kid I was convinced she had an actual twin. Her British accent was pretty good ngl

[@myajanell2504]

right😍

[@looksbylydy8037]

This is a comfort movie for me. I loooooved watching it as a kid and I’m so happy you guys are covering it on the channel!

[@tisforthomasss]

I am so happy you guys have been doing non horror,thriller,spooky,scary! I so appreciate the change up 😊

[@PettyPumpkins]

Trying to have a little more variety going forward 🥰

[@fyj05]

You gotta watch It Takes Two (1995) and Freaky Friday 2003 (w/ Lindsay) as well!!

[@foof76]

I always had trouble getting into this one because the original Hayley Mills version is one of my all time favorite movies ever, but you two make anything enjoyable ❤

[@jessiereacts3145]

tgis is making me feel warm and fuzzy inside, ty for posting 😭

[@CarAmeL624]

You can actually tell which twin is which on the camping trip without the script. Halle is the one leading the group since she has been on the trails before. Annie is the one who continues to mess with Meredith, with the lizard, rocks etc 😂😂😂 She also uses her real accent with Halle when talking about pushing Mer off a cliff. Annie is not innocent, she is Meredith's main nemesis for real

[@gigiloveyeah]

Iconic blue metallic nail polish

[@samtbenjamin]

Before watching this video: Looking back, it's crazy how much we rooted for them but then again Natasha looks SO MUCH like Princess Diana...I'm not sure if that's a coincidence or if Nancy looked at how sad the world was and thought maybe we can get a vicarious/pseudo happy ending that we were robbed off when the people's princess Diana was killed in that infamous car crash.

[@CatharticCreation]

“it’s all archery and marchery” lol i love you guys

[@pricemoore2022]

Awesome reaction of my favorite Disney movie!!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@JayT19851]

I was so surprised to see this upload. This is such an amazing movie. Lindsay Lohan is one of my most favorite actresses of the 2000's and seeing how she's thriving once again makes me so proud! I say just watch her filmography in order imo and we can all just see her grow and become even more iconic throughout the years!

[@JOJO_IN_3D]

The ultimate comfort movie.

[@user-re8vc5dq4g]

Well tbf, Lindsay wasn't talking to "nobody". In order to shoot each of her scenes as Annie and Hallie, production used a look-alike body double (Erin Mackey) who I'm guessing would rehearse lines with her. You could even see Erin in a few shots, like in the scene when they're leaving the hotel, and when Nick is looking at both twins trying to tell the difference, you can see the difference between the actresses by the shade of hair color from the back of their heads.

[@chihuahuagirl128]

Sammy is what made me LOVE Golden Retrievers! I love him lol

[@dark_sunshinedgc]

I love the Parent Trap - this one and the one with Hayley Mills. The parent trap II from back in 1986 had filmed parts in my elementary school which was my first introduction to these movies. Love Dennis Quaid since I was little, so I get you Wes! Lisa Ann Walter is love, she was the reason I got curious about Abbott Elementary, then the whole show just captured me whole LOL

[@jamesacoffey9006]

Freaky Friday for sure!

[@llamamagaming]

One of my favorite movies ! I wanted to be a twin so bad as a kid 😅

[@GoddessDictator]

I have waited a month. WHERE IS THE BOYS SEASON 2????? where...... *dies*

[@PettyPumpkins]

We just filmed our reaction to season 2 this week 😘 Happy to say we loved it and the video will be up at the end of the month 😋

[@madison.shaver]

My identical twin nieces’ birthday is October 11th. It’s iconic 👏🏻🙌🏼👑👑

[@ValidescopeWest]

I have memories of watching the orginal with my mom so I was glad that the remake was good as well. Same with the original Freaky Friday and the remake. They did a good job casting LL in those roles.

[@karenpegram5778]

not your head bubble blocking his speedo I was like move so the rest of us can see haha❤❤ love y’all

[@namjoonswife3300]

SUCH A GREAT MOVIE❤❤

[@mandyb2245]

Showing my age here, I was in high school when this movie came out. I loved it then and I love it now! I'd grown up with the 60's version, which I also love, so this one excited me and I was not disappointed. It's perfect! I did not know Marva was Mrs. Deagle! Wow!

[@paramitch]

I forever love this movie -- I love everything about it. So watching this again with you guys made this a PERFECT experience. It is a perfect movie -- we get Lindsay Lohan absolutely killing it as Annie and Hallie, we get the hottest couple ever with Natasha Richardson (RIP, she was so talented and lovely and warm) and Dennis Quaid, plus the wonderful and adorable Martin and Chessie! PLUS the incredible vineyard PLUS the incredible London townhouse! Everything is so gorgeous and swoonworthy. Sigh. Thank you for reacting to this! I'd love to see you react to Freaky Friday or Mean Girls (if you haven't already). She was also terrific in Altman's "A Prairie Home Companion" (Meryl Streep talked about how talented she was in that, too). Cheers!

[@pyrestarters371]

FREAKY FRIDAY!! Talk about dual leading mother roles. With LiLo and JLC! Hell doesn't that technically count as 4? With them playing themselves and each other?

[@StevieMcKenna10]

Lmfaooo not me sharing a birthday with the twins 😭

[@CheyLouis]

This video is just warm fuzzies

[@lydiajoe8955]

Your video titles are always funny and clever

[@PettyPumpkins]

Thank you for noticing!!!!!! 🥰🥰 it’s one of our favorite parts about posting

[@blu48]

You two are adorable. I really enjoy watching your reactions.

[@PettyPumpkins]

Thank you!!!!! That’s so nice 🤗🥹

[@anthony_castro710]

Also about below deck i was just watching that on the bravo channel ❤🚢

[@joshuamichael3884]

This was so much fun!!! I love this movie. You guys should most definitely do a reaction vid to the OG Parent Trap with Haley Mills.❤

[@mutantx2372]

The vanilla Oreos taste the best with peanut butter.

[@OSHRATZISSER]

On this channel we blame men, so Nick's at fault. Best words of wisdom ever said

[@StephenM1986]

Seen this in cinema theme got it for Christmas on 📼 so much nostalgia

[@pennypierce6511]

Give me the original Hayley Mills version...

[@niles8102]

This movie is the reason my comfort junk food is cookies and cream ice cream with warm peanut butter drizzle on top.

[@alaenamcdonald1877]

I already had my ears pierced when this movie came out, but all the other ear piercings I wanted but wasn’t allowed to get I did myself after seeing that scene! The crunching sound is real!

[@shenanigans9897]

Omg😂 i love this movie but now im having flashbacks to having to clog to that lets get together song

[@charlesdelfy5566]

I really wanna see you guys react to the movies Case 39 (2009) and Hide & Seek (2005) both thrillers with amazing twists🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@sunnydayzie1202]

I recently rediscovered this movie and I just adore it. It never gets old! Imo it's better than the original. Lindsay was much younger than Haley in this (these) roles.

[@user-qc8dg1us9c]

Omg iconic

[@keishaeddie5480]

I tried to pierce my brothers ear like this 😭😭😭😭 legit my fave movie. We started eating Oreos and peanut butter cause of her too 😭

[@cjbalata]

have to see the old classic parent trap it funny how much cross over to the new one :p

[@meredithchandler73]

Older people will remember Polly Holliday as Flo from the tv show “Alice” - about waitresses in an Arizona restaurant. It was a hit show in the 70s.

[@needles1987]

Kiss my grits!

[@laurentaylor1200]

Even at 27, it still blows my mind that the boy in the camp scene’s is Lindsay’s brother in real life! ☺️

[@myajanell2504]

an all time greatest😍movie my fav😍

[@avengersfan949]

I was 5 when this came out

[@adrianasenchantedgarden8020]

I really love the original movie but I hope they do a sequel to the original ❤ 🤞

[@adrianasenchantedgarden8020]

Disney’s the parent trap 2 is on the way

[@CurlyQueen12386]

To this day I’m still trying to figure out how they did this. I used to think there were literally two of them. Love this movie!

[@nickvaldez2500]

I haven’t gotten past the two minute mark but I know y’all are Tie-dye girl STANs

[@sfinn13]

Not me loving this movie so much that when asked to pick my little sisters middle name I went with Hallie (but it ended up as Halle), then a year later my parents divorced. Made me view the film differently but still love it.

[@itswessums]

Love those twins so much but also #JusticeForMeredith 😂

[@tariennewilliams-rosa542]

😂😂I always figured maybe it’s a Hispanic mom thing but if I went to camp looking one way and came home with a haircut and piercing without asking at 12 😅my mom would have killed me 😂then the counselors

[@mknees1467]

I mean, this movie raised me.

[@Adamantium08]

I watched a behind the scenes on this and they used random girls as stand ins for lohan to talk to lol

[@gatchywatchyentertainmentb2090]

Contrary to a “Twin sister” who never existed.

[@chloemoon6255]

I’m British and I think the accent is pretty good but a bit over the top. I do feel like they made Annie so old fashioned. Maybe just cos I don’t like that style 😅

[@savannahthedemon]

Tell me how my grandma saw the old one and never saw this one, so I showed her, but, tbh I have never seen the old one, and now I want to, btw she cried at this one.

[@alisong826]

1:01:10 that’s really cool he knew it was Halle. How much did the script go for on eBay back then if you don’t mind sharing?

[@Kindnessloveunderstanding]

I’d LOVE to see y’all react to Romy and Michele. Elaine Hendrix in that movie…. Yes.

[@emilyantus2025]

"CONFESSIONS OF A TEENAGE DRAMA QUEEN" NEXT, PLEASE!!!!!! Or Just My Luck! Talk about a rom-com!

[@rafa4424]

The opening was funny. Are y’all going to do Irish wish! I hear it’s good

[@OSHRATZISSER]

looooove below deck 💗

[@MindofMike35]

It Takes Two (1995) with the Olsen twins next?

[@DarleneLesmana]

the day that i can watch parent trap without crying, call someone

[@hayleylandseadal2923]

I’d love to see your reactions to Freaky Friday, with the two QUEENS! And Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen 🩷🩷

[@HomarAlexander]

Are we celebrating Jack Quaid? You know. .Richie Kirsch

[@jessiereacts3145]

I always thought Chessy and Martin were bi 4 bi

[@rubix522]

Would love to see a reaction to Mean Gworls!😍 lol

[@PettyPumpkins]

Oh it’s on the docket!!! But a little later this year!

[@jayr3053]

Mean Girls next & Irish wish next? 🎉

[@shanimami12]

yall should watch mean girls and scary movie 3

[@markyboy214]

Wes is giving Lucas vibes 😂😂

[@billyg3230]

based on the type of movies you guys are known to watch this one straight out of left field

[@Cubs-Den-Reactions]

remember when Lindsay Lohan told Lindsay Lohan that the difference between Lindsay Lohan and Lindsay Lohan was that Lindsay Lohan had class and Lindsay Lohan didn’t? good times.

[@Cubs-Den-Reactions]

Also hubby and I officially want to be besties! 😂

[@riotgeek]

Oh, and for your continuing LOHANAISSANCE series, I would love to see you both watch LIZ & DICK!

[@Susiebanks]

Love this movie. But why didn’t you just tell the parents right away lol

[@AmandaWspoon]

My experience with summer camps was underwhelming in comparison to this. I've been to three, and 2 of them were very religious, actual Jesus camps, but I enjoyed them at the time even with the queer guilt. Looking back, I just want to rescue my bi-curious ass and explain my brand of queerness without guilt and stamp out my taught homophobia earlier. The other was for Campfire(co-ed boy and girl scouts pretty much), which came the closest and was mostly all fun, though we prayed before meals in song. Including horseback riding, canoing, and archery. Too bad my troop shut down in my region when I was 12.

[@carees1111]

Can y’all do life size

[@ramonc1942]

Natasha is a goddess

[@user-qc8dg1us9c]

Mean girls plzzzzz
