The first Richie Rich is a big movie for me because one of my middle/high school ELA teachers showed it to us to talk about product placement and “subliminal” advertising. She had us make a list of every brand we noticed in it. I think she really just wanted to kill two days with movie days, which I truly understand down to my bones as a teacher now. It wasn’t a particularly inspirational lesson or anything but those fun moments are the ones that stick with me more than any more structured thing, and I do keep that in mind when I teach.

Poor Phelous. He just can't escape the Saban Cinematic Universe.

The more times "Addams Family Mistake" is mentioned, the more my curiosity about it grows.

There’s really going to be no limit to the mileage you’ll get from the “Great Simpsons joke, Phelan” clip!

"see, the poors, if we rich people weren't around... things would be worse!"

I think it’s funny that it took Alison moving in to get Phelan to start using shelves for his collection! I’m not creepy I swear!!! 😅

14:38 I now want Donald Pleasence to hide behind a large gold mask taunting Reggie.

I don't believe that Richie Rich knows what a washing machine is

Fun Cast Facts: -Reggie's mother is Trump's at-the-time wife, Marla Maples (fitting since Reggie is a fascist) -Richie's redhead friend was a bully in Little Rascals -Richard Riehle's assistant cops includes Major Asshole from Spaceballs -the orphanage is run by the nun from The Blues Brothers

The kid who plays Reggie was in an episode of 7th Heaven where he threatens to shoot Simon. He ends up shooting Stephen Collins. Also if you watch Kevin Smith films, he is the kid buying drugs from Jay & SB in the first Jay and Silent Bob film. Then he buys drugs in Clerks 2. In J&SB Reboot he is a guy running a dispensary at the convention. In Clerks 3 he is one of the people auditioning. He says a Jay line then comments he sounds like the guy he used to buy pot from.

21:16 “Gumballs are made for….lasting a while” Alison, I cannot remember the last gumball I had where the flavor didn’t dissipate within fifteen seconds.

I haven't thought about the robot from Richie Rich in probably 30 years, but now I'm wondering who'd win in a fight between her and Rosie from The Jetsons.

First Ninja Turtles, then the Addams Family, now Richie Rich?! Saban had a mission to destroy every IP they touched, didn’t they?

Starting the holidays with Allison and Phelan!

Richie Rich a movie about a billionaire kid done on the cheap.

A Richie Rich movie with Riku from Kingdom Hearts, Dawn from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the grandpa from Grounded for Life, Willard Craft from Sabrina the Teenage Witch AND Mr Levingstein from American Pie? Saban was a massive cocaine streak after Power Rangers.

I'm glad Richie Rich used his magical wish power to help humanity. By wishing Adam's Family Mistake out of existence.

"I think Casper's the ghost of Richie Rich." "Hey, they DO look alike." "I wonder how Richie died." "Perhaps realized how shallow the pursuit of money is, and took his own life..." "hrmmm, kids, could you lighten up a little?"

The brahs over at OSW once said that the entire appeal of Richie Rich is that he has a McDonald's in his gaff.

I appreciate that your collaborations have become more frequent. You're each great on your own, but together adds an atmosphere of fun that is intoxicating!

Wow going from living in a massive mansion with your own personal McDonalds to living out of the RedLetterMedia movie Warehouse with London from The suite life of Zack and Cody, Oh how the Macaulay's MacCulkin.

I'm just glad all the christmas wish energy is strong enough to give one with to the child who literally needs it less than anyone. I'm not finding any horrifying implications no siree.

Soooo in all honesty I feel the same way about Richie’s McDonalds as I do about that Taco Bell commercial with that NFL player; I’m sooooooo broken that all I can think is how fun it would be to work at a fast food place owned by and eaten at by just one person

Finally Phelous has another 7th Heaven connection 😂

I remember seeing the original Richie Rich movie and the only thing that the Biltmore Estate was used as the Rich Mansion for exterior shots.

Richard Moll is dead? Well that makes getting him back for the reboot a lot harder.

At least Richie did not wish for a world without zinc

If you have a doggy door that's big enough to fit Richard Riehle, that's just called "a door".

I didn’t realise that there was a Richie Rich Christmas movie until recently when it appeared on Disney Plus and that it’s also a cheap ripoff of It’s A Wonderful Life

What a way to learn that Phelous consider Bones to be the second best show to have ever be aired on TV.

I love Phelan's Pokemon sweater t-shirt.

Nice sweater Allison, & Phelous, well you always have bad ass shirts dude lol, y’all lookin goooooood lol

I now remember seeing this as a kid, unfortunate memory unlocked

The villain is the hero's cousin who motivated by Wanting more money even though he is already rich? So he's just Antonio stark from Iron man?

I know he was ACTUALLY in Home Alone 2, but this really FEELS like it should have Tim Curry in it somewhere.

SABAN? Do they ever learn? NOPE! I take it they wanted Baywatch Nights for this incredibly odd sci fi premise of a future washout the most interesting character from modern fiction, Richie Rich. lol I'm looking forward to Addams Family Reunion, guys.

Can imagine Reggie screaming toward the film's end, a la Hitler in "Downfall", "That was an ORDER!!!", straight out of the many "Hitler Rants" parodies.

I didn’t even know this sequel was a thing before now! The last few reviews have been awesome! Not that your other videos aren’t awesome 😊

Casper's Haunted Christmas is my favorite in all of Casper Media they did really well with the characters and Holly was a good parallel for him

Gonna love how Allison and Phelous keep teasing us about the Family Addams Mistake, Can't wait to see what had gone wrong in this reunion!

It's my birthday! Also, I edited this!

Can't believe you didn't mention that Richie in this movie is also Riku in Kingdom Hearts (I typed this comment after only watching 7 minutes of the video so if they mention it later, no hate please lol)!

I remember seeing this movie on the Disney Channel sometime in the early 2000s. I think my main reaction to it was, "Um... okay?"

It still works that you mention Richard Moll, cuz he does have a Richie Rich connection. John Larroquette, who played the villain in the first Richie Rich film, was also in Night Court

You guys are on a roll. You lauded two of me and my wife’s favorite movies of all time, finally tackled the 2 Garfield movies and now reviewing one of our favorite crap movies that we love to watch. Also Coffin n’ Nails forever mate!

Merry Christmas, Allison and Phelan. And a happy New Year!

Great as always!

I adored watching this on cable every year. It's so silly but puts me in a fun Christmas mood 😊

I'm actually extremely surprised Phelous didn't mention "An Angel for Christmas" considering the similarities. a rich guy wanting to cancel christmas who has smokestacks throughout a city and has a few incompetent "Death squad" members. I bet Reggie had a Flange factory too.

THE GUY FROM 7TH HEAVEN ALSO VOICES RIKU IN KINGDOM HEARTS

I make my family watch this every year...I think they're getting sick of it 😂

Fun fact- he's actually named Richie Rich due to his love of figgy pudding* *I know we all love figgy pudding but he does a bit more.

the robot is scary in both timelines

Merry Sabanzaa everybody!

Happy Holidays🎄🎁🎀

Everytime I watch one of these I'm reminded just how dang funny yall are

Could have sworn Phelous once refrenced 7th Heavan actors being on Star Trek.

Oh crap, Riku got rich!

Can't wait for the Richie Rich cinematic universe

that maid robot is the stuff of nightmares!

I need that Pokémas t-shirt so much 🥺

Not just no McDonalds sponsorship, but not even A & w Soda cola?

I remember seeing the comics back when I was a kid. I can't see the appeal at all, at yet it was popular enough for cartoons and movies.

Actually his final wish would make him effective3ly immortal, but only every Christmas, so he's The Santa Claus. Ha.

Man, I wonder how long the streak of Phelan making simpsons jokes in these reviews will continue.

Caught the Richie Rich Christmas Wish movie on YTV back in 2004 or something. It was kinda weird and cartoony but I guess that was to be expected from a Saban produced Fox Family flick based on some notable property. It is pretty dumb, but I'd take it over watching all 26 episodes of Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation...

I remember watching this Christmas sequel. You can really tell it's low-budget in so many ways.

The 90s was full of cartoon-to-live-action adaptations. I think the trend may have started with The FLINSTONES Movie and then carried on with Casper, George of the Jungle, Dudley Doright, Inspector Gadget and finally Scooby Doo.

Reggie bribed Judge Buckle from the movie North that's how he came to power

The fact that Irona has a god to evil switch is a bad idea.

lmao, I think we are all shocked about Richard Moll's passing to focus on Richie Rich antics Actually the Richie Rich comics were INSANELY Popular during the 70s. Aside from the movie, even the the animated series was 15 years too late. I wouldn't go to say Richie Rich comics would sell well, just they published so many of them you probably could make a well insulated house out of them.

Having the cop be a fascist stormtrooper in the alternate universe seems like some form of clever commentary I guess, but they likely didn't think that far.

TB has made a comeback in the Richless timeline

Good to see the movie nights intro.

Nice job with the Batman Returns joke in the ending stinger.

4:03 hey, von shlemmer got the glow up from the AoStH cartoon lmao

Might be a weird comment but Allison's editing is really incredible !

I know I saw the first Richie Rich, but it came out when I was 4 and I don't remember it at all beyond the dog with the dollar signs painted on, but I'm having a sense of deja vu for this one, so I think I may have rented this one from Blockbuster at some point too...

I'm surprised at how many names I recognized in this film's cast.

I guess theres a pun there with Wishing machine being a washng machine.

Eh! You guys know how to start the holidays low key with some fun ❤ guess it’s also time to rewatch the turtles Christmas reviews 😂

Goofy Gestapo was my least favorite Mickey Mouse Club spinoff.

I thought Sabannukah came before Sabanmas, but I haven't been keeping up on my holidays.

Allison are you going to review or talk about Steve Urkel Saves Santa animated movie!? This was supposed to be released a few years back under a different title but got cancelled but now it's finally been released! Jaleel White returns to voice Steve Urkel. Sadly the Winslows are not in the movie but the big guy aka Carl is referenced by Steve. 🎅🎄☃🎁

10:46 - 10:53 I even recall in the ‘94 movie they were actually pro-union even!

Did you guys do a video on Addams Family Reunion? I can't find it

How is this video the reason I'm putting together the kid in the only richie rich thing I knew existed was the guy who voices Riku Kingdom Hearts

Wait. 11:42 - I remember that tattoo. Is it possible I've seen this?!?

I love the first Richie Rich movie and I barely remember much Richie Rich Christmas wish expert for those pigs in the movie.

Hehe thanks for the Simpsons references xD

I thought it was funny how Reggie always wants burgers, candy or ice cream as though this sequel wanted to show the dangers of eating junk food. However, the first film showed Richie Rich had his own McDonald's and drinking milkshakes while giving healthy food to Dollar as though the junk food is so awesome for kids. There's a deleted scene that was only shown on the tv airing of this movie where Reggie admits controlling Richie's sled and crashing it. Reggie apologized and Richie forgave Reggie. Richie gave Reggie and Reggie's parents presents. Supposedly, test audiences hated this ending where they wanted Reggie getting his comeuppance.

Its cute to see their still together after all these years. Are they married yet?

3:00 could have been an A&W or ironically enough, a Harvey's

Guess the production was wishy washy about the prop budget.

Fun movie saw it when i was 15 in 1999 my family member rented it😊

I had forgotten I had seen this as a kid. Perhaps I wished for the memory to be erased.

Dollar is actually from the original comics, so he's canon for the Harvey-verse.

23:03 - alternatively, maybe in the original timeline, Richie is the reason those orphans _are_ orphans, and with no Richie in the new timeline, they never got orphaned. 😜

2 Episode Idea: -the Christmas episode of Big Wolf on Campus -Fizzy Bizness starring Tommy and Merton from Big Wolf.

Seriously just watched a RLM video before this where they confused Richard Moll with Martin Moll
