26:07 Dasha figured it out way faster than most guys (myself included) did. I remember my wife had to explain the perm/ shower thing to me at least twice.

As a fan of Cruel Intentions (which has both Reese and Selma but they share no scenes ☹), I really enjoy the friendship between Elle and Vivian. They start as enemies (on Vivian's part), but both realize that Warner sucks and ditch him to become besties.

Honestly, my favorite part about this movie is the script. In theory, it just shouldn't work it has too many subplot threads. There's the main one about Elle going to law school, but then there's also her breakup story with Warner, her getting together with Luke Wilson's character (I forget his name), the love story between Paulette and the UPS guy, Elle's friendship with Vivian, the s3xual harassment thing with her professor, the whole story with the actual court trial...it's insane how many plates are spinning, but somehow, it never feels forced, cheap, or thrown away. This is quite a dense yet breezy script.

I was a member of a fraternity in college, Tau Kappa Epsilon (TKE.) There was a sorority house on campus that was entirely composed of the girliest girls on campus, Alpha Phi. They were basically the real life Delta Nu, and possibly who they were based on. And you are absolutely correct in your appraisal of what their sorority house was like. It was basically a fashion day camp. Lots of girls around during different hours of the day, lots of events and parties. And EVERYONE was impressively dressed, styled and made up. I remember the first party of theirs I ever got invited to I was so shy because they were all so pretty, I didn't talk to anyone but the other guys most of the night, LOL! I didn't have what you'd call "the social skills", back in those days! 😂😂😂😂

Dasha: "Oh she had a perm, and she went to wash her hair??"

4:41 Dasha: "I only seen him for like 5 minutes and he seems to be a Captain Dipsh*t, you know" Me : "Captain Dipsh*t indeed"

I went to a pretty serious prep school. During my junior year, I thoughtlessly said "Funner" in an English Lit class. The professor had great fun teasing me for that.

Dasha, you've GOT TO see the Jane Austen stories: Pride and Prejudice (2005, Knightley was perfect), Sense and Sensibility (1995, Oscar winning actress), Emma (1996, say what you want but Gwyneth was just right). Other good "chick flicks": A League of Their Own, Sleepless in Seattle, The Devil Wears Prada, Lady Bird, Moulin Rouge (musical, so maybe copyright problems in KZfaq), Clueless. Chick flicks don't have to be all about boyfriends.

20:03 "She _did_ say that they... _humped_ like gorillas." "How do gorillas hump?" 😄😄😄 Okay. That's a good question.

Best score you can get on the LSAT is 180, and she got a 179 on her first try. Its a test you take that is like... all essay questions, and when it gives you multiple choice questions, all of the choices are right, you have to explain which is the most correct, and explain why.

This movie never fails to cheer me up! It's so fun and clever, with the sweetest characters and cute clothes 🩷

"Sweet Home Alabama" and "Just Like Heaven" are another two, easy watch Reese Witherspoon movies worth a reaction?

When Emmett asks how he would look as a blonde she should have said "You would look like Owen Wilson".

You understood Elle from the beginning. Most judge her as just a privilege rich girl with no depth, and only later find out how intelligent and caring she is. Thank you for a great reaction. One of the best.

The parent trap, freaky Friday, mean girls...

So the 175 thing is off, you need atleast a 170 to get into Harvard. Elle getting a 179 is nuts, because 180 is perfect. Also, even if you were to take out the obvious misogyny that went into her admission decision, in real life someone like her would have a better chance than the average applicant because she's different. They really do want as many perspectives as possible when deciding admissions. Especially at a school with an acceptance rate of 4%.

When Dasha first said "Snap", I knew she would enjoy this movie. It's a don't "Judge a book by the cover" movie.

Hi Dasha, when I saw the title of this one I knew you would enjoy this girl power comedy film!🙂"Ferocity" comes from the word ferocious, being very scary. "Carnage" is the killing of a lot of people. This was Reese Witherspoon's big breakthrough film. Great reactions to the very enjoyable comedy Legally Blonde, Dasha!!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I watched your reaction because I knew how you would react to this. A light, frothy film that is better than it has any right to be. And it has held up over the years.

The actress who plays Brooke Windom was in Hero’s

Paulette (Jennifer Coolridge) will always be Stiffler's Mom to me.😄

The guy playing David Kidney(Oz Perkins) is the son of late actor Anthony Perkins from Psycho! He is a director one film being The Blackcoat’s Daughter. The Actress playing Vivian(Selma Blair) has Multiple Sclerosis but hopes to be in Legally Blonde 3. This was based on a book which was set at Stanford Law but Stanford would not allow filming there so it was moved to Harvard instead. Reese did attend Stanford but dropped out. Her daughter attends Cal(Berkeley) a very competitive school in California. The beautician friend was in the American Pie movie series and tv series Two Broke Girls. She also won multiple awards on another tv show. The woman playing Brooke also played Clear Rivers in the Final Destination 1+2 films. The ex-wife is played by late pin up and actress Raquel Welch(RIP). Other FEMALE centric films: Ruth Gordon in Harold and Maude; Rosiland Russell in Auntie Mame and The Trouble with Angels; Goldie Hawn in Foul Play, Seems Like Old Times, Overboard, and Private Benjamin plus Barbra Streisand in What’s Up Doc and For Pete’s Sake.

Love this movie. Should watch 13 Going On 30. Another good one. Also Letters to Juliette.

You should watch The Devil Wears Prada as well. It seems girlie, but it has a great story and a really good film. Miss Congeniality is a fun watch as well.

Fun Fact: Oz Perkins who played "David Kidney" is the son of Anthony Perkins who's best known for playing "Norman Bates" from "Psycho" (1990).

There are some girly movies even an old curmudgeon like me enjoys. This one and Clueless come to mind

For me it's hard to watch this movie with all the Barbie-like and cheerleader-like scenes, but I like the message that a woman does not have to stop being feminine and attractive to prove she is smart and capable. Many feminists from the 20th century acted like they have to act like men, stop shaving everything and wear the ugliest clothes they could find, as if being feminine implied being dumb and superficial. I've know a few women in my life, two of them in Engineering school, another one in a Karate group, beautiful, feminine, smarter, more capable and with more leadership skill than almost everyone in their groups.

We wouldn't mind if you did chick-flicks. There are actually a lot of good ones out there. Try Clueless, Bridesmaids, and Easy A

Ferocity = Fierceness Carnage = Bloodshed

you really need to do Shakespeare in Love. It's a great movie. One of the best love stories of all time. Plus, the dialogue is so elegant it will blow your mind.

Dasha not being able to pronounce Reese Witherspoon reminds me that I once saw an article titled something like "Why Russian Names Are So Unpronounceable," so I wonder if Dasha's full name would be even harder for people who primarily speak English to pronounce..

she did the same thing at her first breakup, his name was patrick bateman

The ex wife was played by Raquel Welch. She was the last poster girl in The Shawshank Redemption. The one the warden referred to as "fuzzy britches."

This was a really good movie. I was surprised.

14:36 "It's like, she's just -- I don't know what's the correct expression, but she's just screwing everyone over with her brain. you know?" That's definitely _not_ the correct expression, but maybe it should be! 😝

Barbie is a dr, an astronaut, and a lot of other stuff, not bad for a woman who's knees don't bend

While the scene when Elle slaps David in front of the girls who rejected him to help him look desirable instead of a loser, I got the impression that she's done the same to a guy (or guys) and saw it from the man's perspective. A lot of women seem to believe that men are emotionless robots who don't have feelings, so it's okay (even cool) to hurt them. Atta girl, Elle!

26:15 "Because isn't it the first cardinal rule of perm maintenance that you're forbidden to wet your hair for at least 24 hours after getting a perm at the risk of deactivating the ammonium thioglycolate?" "Yes." "And wouldn't someone who had, say, 30 perms before in their life be well _aware_ of this rule, and if, in fact, you _weren't_ washing your hair, as I _suspect_ you weren't because your curls are still intact, wouldn't you have heard the gunshot? And if, in fact, you _had_ heard the gunshot, Brooke Windham wouldn't have had time to hide the gun before you got _downstairs._ Which means you would have had to have found Brooke Windham with a _gun_ in her hand to make your story _plausible,_ isn't that right?" 😄 _Whoo!_ The _velvet glove_ covering an _iron fist_ has arrived!

Legally dasha , you will like this

Next up... Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, and Blonde!

21:30 they only bark if you allow it so it’s a training thing not a dog thing. You can train them not to bark and to keep calm. Look at a service dog they have the proper training

The orange actress is Katheryn Winnick, Vikings Ladgerda Queen.

17:51 "that's what she said." 😉 i'm always happy when dasha gets one in.

Very thoughtful commentary. I enjoyed it Dasha.

Okay but Dasha calling Warner "Captain Dipsh*T" is my new favorite thing 😂

Warner was also in Vampire Diaries he played Alaric

Every couple has a movie, this was ours ❤

Very much a girl power movie, which inspired so many young women and girls to become lawyers! I also recommend Clueless and Penelope.

11:53 "Snap. Nice nice nice." very nice.

I think you'd like "water for elephants" with Reese, Robert Pattison & Christoph Waltz.

Fun one, Dasha! 😊

Reese is wicked smart and I remember this being a good movie.

Hey Dasha, if you like law school movies, I highly recommend The Paper Chase (1973). It's also set at Harvard (on location, like Legally Blonde) but a bit more serious yet still fun.

This is the true Barbie film. A great classic.

4:43 "...he seems to be a Captain Dip-s#!t..." That's one I haven't heard before! 😆

If you like Reese Witherspoon, wait until you see Reese Witherknife...

This is not the type of movie I usually watch but when I knew you were reacting to it I had to watch. lol.

12:18 "Maybe there's, like, a _sorority_ you could, like, join _instead."_ I don't get Enid's beef with Elle. I mean, they didn't know each other before they both came _here._ Why is she busting her chops? Why is she _always_ busting her chops?

Dasha, bend and snap would totally work for you.

4:24 "Poo-bear-" No, Warner. That is a _pet_ name. You used it with her because you and she were in a _relationship;_ a relationship you just _ended._ That means you don't get to keep _using_ it. Her name is _"Elle,"_ now. Call her _"Elle."_

Such a wholesome movie, I love it. Can also recommend the sequel.

I loved watching you react to one of my favorite movies!

Exercise gives you endorphins, endorphins make you happy. Happy people don't commit murder. They just don't.

Captain Dipshit, that's hilarious man 😂😂😂 also yeah this movie just perpetuates the stereotype that all latin men wear speedos and are secretly gay. 🤷🏻‍♂️ we don't all wear speedos 😤

I had no interest in this movie at all until one day, board out of my mind with nothing to do thought, 'what the hell, I'll give it a shot.' I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed this movie. Its really well written. If you want something a little different, I recommend an old cult classic called, 'They Call Me Bruce.' It has a lot of 70's pop culture references that even most Americans don't get but its still REALLY funny.

i have a good comedy for you "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" ... one of the actors is Steve Martin.

This is what the Barbie movie should have been....

18:25 - The key here is to flick your hair back as you "snap". :)

It's really something to graduate and already have a win in a murder case on your resume.

Ferocity is the level of ferociousness. A tiger attacks a gazelle with ferociousness. Carnage is damage, as in after a battle. "Carn-" is Latin (I think) for referring to meat.

I'm pretty sure you could make the "bend and snap" work for you Dasha :).

This is a great movie when you want pure entertainment and especially when you need to laugh!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Oh Dasha, you are going to LOVE this one❤❤❤

13:52 "I'm never gonna be _good_ enough for you, _am_ I?" And _here's_ the key realization. Go to law school because you want to major in _law;_ _not_ because you want to steal your _ex_ back.

There was originally a different ending but test audiences hated it so they had to film this ending but Reese had started filming a other movie and had changed her hair so she's wearing a blonde wig in the final scene.

Have you seen Bridgett Jones Diary? Highly recommend.

Such a fun movie!

щелчки! ❤🎉😂 Glad you liked it!

Legally Blonde: the much better Barbie movie.

_"How do gorillas hump?"_ I'm not exactly sure, but I imagine it's quite unpleasant.

It's so realistic..

The only thing that could have made this better would have been if she had done it when she was blonde herself🤣

12:08 "It's like a _smart-people_ thing." 😄😄😄 _Remember_ she said that.

Dasha, do you know how Reese eats oatmeal? With her spoon.

28:16 did you just say Great white movie? Hahahaha😅

27:02 Hugo! 👋🏼

Movie suggestion - "Fear" starring Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg.

I think you would enjoy "The House Bunny" (2008) starring Anna Faris.

👍

Keep up the great work Dasha!

One of my fav movies !! Love elle woods 😅 a strong female character maybe disney should learn something from this movie…

It is pretty cool with campus life.. for like 2 years.. then.. well. Then its less cool By the way. So here 15 years on, im still very happy i married a Marilyn not a jackie I studdied in the golden 90s in engineering. Engineering was super-hyped in the 90s and there was quite a lot of female attendees, something that have really not happen before or later. Quite a lot of them was bimbos, and also quite a few of them was nerds. But, if they was bimbos or nerds really had no effect of the outcome of the education. There was also much more girls falling of than guys. There was this bimbo in my class that i was seated with the very first day, she turned out she was from the same city as me, i never met here prior. I instantly disliked here (and i guess she probobly didn´t like me that much either) I pretty much didn´t talk to here the following 4 years. She was the first female to finish that program...

3:41 "no guy would ever say that." facts. ✅

i would love to see your reaction to jennifer's body!

I suggest "Blonde Ambition"

Dasha have you watched WarGames,it's from the 80's,it's a fun watch

❤ Dasha's eyes are beautiful? Are you serious? 😆 Of course they are! The bend and snap works every time.

My guilty pleasure

3:13. It's strange to think he would take her to such a nice restaurant just to break up with her, but then again he's an idiot who couldn't even get into law school on his own, & she proved to herself she didn't need him to be both happy & successful as she is.

The stereotypes in this are just over the top 😂, & Reese just nails the role of Elle. Just a fun movie that brings laughs. [Have another good comedy for you Dasha; it is "OSCAR" with Sylvester Stallone. A really enjoyable film with a great supporting cast of notables, & a quick paced script. I think it is one of his best roles along with "Copland". Hope you give it a reaction!)😊
