"He doesn't have a classically handsome face. So I'm pretty sure he is going to be killed... or cursed... or something bad" Too true.

Dylan: "I'm cheering for you!" *and her name was Maleficent* Dylan: "Oh boy"

Here's the thing that I actually appreciated with this Sleeping Beauty remake: It was an actual remake. They changed things and went with a different storyline. Like…brought new stuff to the table, not just remade the scenes.

I just realized, when Maleficent was casting the curse, she said that Aurora would be "loved by all". Which would include MALEFICENT. So that probably means her own curse backfired on her and made her the key to breaking the spell.

14:24 what I love about this is she falls under her own curse, "the child will be beloved by all" That includes herself

That mocking tone in her voice when she said “true love’s kiss” as she was cursing the kid was EVERYTHING.

I loved the movie when at the end they interpreted true love kiss not as a cliché which is a result of superficial “love” between two strangers but a motherly love which was built up through the movie

I thinks she couldn't grow wings back because after that she couldn't emotionally grow. In the end when her arc is done she gets them back because she mentally healed.

The fact Dylan knew right away the kid was gonna be a villain because he didn't have a classically handsome face (nice way to say ugly) lmfaaao

Honestly the salty/bitter way she put in “true loves kiss” into that spell and then it was her that gave the kiss is amazing character development

The fact that the cutting of her wings (while having been drugged by someone she trusted) was a confirmed representation of women being drugged and waking up to find they've been r*ped, and honestly...having been in that moment myself, Angelina Jolie's acting was impeccable. This was, and still is, the best adaptation of that moment for me without it being explicitly about r*pe. That part hits my heart every time.

I liked how Stephen gave Maleficent the "gift" of what he said was"true love's kiss" and Maleficent was so bitter about his betrayal she made that the key to ending the curse.

I think we can all agree that the king and queen had 15 years to be with aurora and then on her 16th year they could have sent her away

I feel like no one talks about how the colour of her magic changes over time. Like when she’s young is yellow then when Stefan betrays her its green and when she starts to love aurora it goes back to yellow.

Fun fact: when they were filming the scene where Maleficent picks up Aurora as a child, they had to use Angelina Jolie’s daughter because all of the other children that age were terrified of her in the costume. Angelina’s daughter was able to see that it was her mom though which is why she wasn’t scared.

Angelina saying "I don't like children" is the funniest thing. Great actor haha

if the lamp doesn't turn green i want a refund

*FUN FACT*: Jolie's little daughter was chosen to play the young Aurora because she was the only girl Maleficent didn't scare her since she knew she was her mother.

Are we just going to ignore the fact that Dylan guessed the plot of the second movie PERFECTLY!? like, down to the details of marriage and war, WHAT THE ACTUAL FUUUUUU-

The rape symbolism behind maleficent losing her wings hit me like a ton of bricks the first time I saw this movie. The pain she feels when she wakes up…. It made me tremble.

Maleficent said in the curse "beloved by all who meet her" she never excluded herself from that, that's why she ended up loving aurora more than anyone cause she's also the one that spent the most time with her so she was destined to love her the most

A nice parallel I never noticed until now: when Maleficent meets Diaval, she saves him from a farmer's net. When she turns him into a dragon, he returns the favor and frees her from the king's net.

The reason why Stefan sent Arouca away as well as burning all of the spinning wheels was because that he felt that Maleficent would come after the kid but in actuality, Maleficent ended up raising his kid to be kind and everything Stefan was not since he wasn’t there to teach her that Maleficent was evil.

I never noticed this before but the reason that Phillip and Aurora had such an instant connection and the reason Maleficent loved her was because at birth she was given the gift of being loved by all who met her

therapist: dylan what do we do when we feel like this dylan: *changes the lamp color* therapist: no

Person: "There is a human thief" No one: Absolutely No One: Dylan: "iS iT fLiN rIdEr?"

Dylan: She literally told him her weakness, this is *not gonna end well* Me: Dylan out here giving dope ass dating advice now, huh

Something I love: Maleficent took care of Aurora in the beginning not because she wanted her to live but because she wanted her curse to be the only thing that killed Aurora. Petty to the max.

i swear, when Maleficents wakes up to find out she has no wings, and screams in horror and pain like that, it breaks my heart in pieces

dylan: *states the obvious* the obvious: *happens* dylan: I'M AN EXPERT MOVIE WATCHER

TW: I really enjoy this movie because of its symbolism. Maleficent getting her wings stolen is a metaphor for her being raped, she hides away and hates the world. She forgets how to love and curses anything that has to do with her offender, she slowly learns how to love again through aurora and forgive him which is the acceptance. She brings down her thorn wall symbolizing her learning to love and opening up again

I now have found my comfort channel. It's like watching a whole movie with the friend I don't have and it feels hella great.

Dylan having a boy crush on Flynn Rider is the best thing on the internet so far

that scene where she is screaming and crying because her wings were cut off always rips my soul in half, the chills and tears are real

am i the only one who really wants Maleficent and Diaval to end up together? They really did great on parenting Aurora

14:48 Fun fact: the child in this scene is actually Angelina's REAL daughter. All the toddlers they tried to use in this scene would cry because they were afraid of the horns/outfit. Except for Angelina's own daughter, because she recognized her mom and wasn't afraid 🤣

Dylan: No bodies on the battlefield?! Disney: Of course not. This is a Family film. Disney 5 minutes later: Woman gets roofied by her ex and he mutilates her body for personal profit.

Maleficent spell on Aurora was her downfall, she literally said in the curse, Everyone who meets you will love you. Maleficent met her and basically watched her grow up and now loves her like her own.

i thought the first Maleficent movie was GORGEOUS, the acting really impressed me and i love the plot, i thought it was executed pretty well too

Aurora: "Whats your name?" Philip: "Its Philip." Dylan: "His name is phil.."

“Beloved by everyone she meets” Sis you just played yourself

Angelina said the specific scene where Maleficent's wings are taken is a metaphor of sexual assault, being drugged and having something taken in ur sleep. Sleeping beauty the original versions the darker side was about assault as well and Maleficent is about recovery, taking her power back, reclaiming the story and it was important to tell❣

12:00 She's not evil. Not only Stefan took her wings, but betrayed her. She loved him and trust him. When she founded out that he has a daughter she was still in love with him. That child meant to her that he betrayed her even more because, after all he was with another woman. That hurts.

Flora: "A human theif!!!" Dylan: "Huh is that Flynn rider?"

Fun fact: The little girl that played as Child Aurora was Angelina Jolie’s 5-year-old daughter Vivienne, because she was the only little girl who wasn’t frightened by Angelina Jolie in her Maleficent costume.

Maleficent: I DONT LIKE CHILDREN >:( also Maleficent: tenderly picks up toddler

13:41 I'm pretty sure Will Smith watched this video before going to the Oscars

Dylan's reaction to the scene where she gets her wings cut off is why i love and support this channel. I just watched billybinges' video on this movie yesterday and was seriously disturbed and honestly hurt by the way he laughed at her and cheered stefan on. Anyways just came back to this video to say this is why i love Dylan

I can’t with him. It’s 3am and I’m laughing at the part he said “mAlEfiCeNt....” when Stephen called her😭😭

Narrator: Thus, the thief who had hoped to steal a jewel stole something far more precious. Dylan: Her virginity. Lol. I'm dead.

25:24 Maleficent breaking through that window is such a money shotttttttt

✨She was a fairy 🧚 didn’t realize it was from this movie

"whats up with the zoom?" someone show him an Indian drama i BEG

I love how she's yelling for the curse to be revoked, and Aurora's just dead asleep. Same, hunny, same.

When Mali gets her wings back and does that superhero shot, I was like, "She's a better Captain Marvel than Captain Marvel." XD

13:20 the guy got decked by the tree and it instantly cut me to an ad which just enhanced that so much. Comedy

*true love's kiss doesn't work* fairy: "you didn't do it right!" dylan: "yeah get your tongue in there"

I think I’m just stupid but I just realized that Mal made the curse for Aurora’s 16th birthday which can only be lifted by true love’s kiss to mock Stefan because he gave her false true love’s kiss on her 16th birthday 🤯

"I don't know baby's ages" -Dylan 2019

7:37 dylans face when maleficent cried

Dylan is definitely the kinda dude that when someone starts ugly crying he just gets startled and cracks a joke

Dylan: *watches Tangled* Also Dylan in every video after: Is it Flynn Ryder?

17:00 Natural human reaction to literally anything

It’s actually my favourite disney remake. It actually adds more to the story and the world, unlike the other Disney remakes they are just live carbon copies. The only other remake I genuinely enjoy is Cinderella

Maleficent: "She will be loved by all who meet her." Also Maleficent: *meets her*

I love that dylan loved Mulan, Tangled and this movie, Maleficent is SO underrated. A MAN WITH TASTE 👏

“wtf u doing, witch?” is basically the whole movie 😂 10:48

19:08 I won't get tired of dylan tempting the characters to commit murder haahhaha

"-you straight up cursed a baby and reveled in the misery of others, that's terrible" _That's showbiz baby_

Oh thank god, we’re back to non-Monday movie commentary Monday’s. Order has been restored.

9:18, this give me the same energy as how it’s crazy how the human body can grow another human being inside of them, but can’t like regrow a new finger or something like that

I love when maleficent said “iron burns fairies” Dylan goes “don’t tell him that” and Stephen throws the iron bracelet then Dylan goes “don’t throw it!!” 😂😂😂😂😂😂 like who side you on😂😂😂

Fun fact: The scene when Maleficent wakes up after her wings are cut off , her reaction is meant to imitate how women feel after being drugged and assaulted and waking up and knowing what’s happened. Angelina Jolie did an interview I think where she explained the scene and why it was shot this way. Edit: I get it guys, it’s not actually a ‘fun fact’ I’m not trying to say sexual assault is cool or anything just..that’s what I say before saying random facts I know

the only live action disney remake that actually adds a lot of depth and meaning to the original

And also her wings where literally a physical part of her identity when she lost those she lost herself combined with the hatred of betrayal she felt from the one person who showed her affection of course she became evil but she was raised to look after the lord which is why she never ever harmed the people of the mores and her daughter Aurora.

I actually preferred the curse in the cartoon movie, where she says Aurora will die and then the last pixie changes is to this sleeping blabla kiss thing. I really love the backstory they gave maleficent. In the first part I was like "What? I thought this was about the witch from sleeping beauty?" and then like "oooh okay it is" XD

Prince Charming: My names Phillip Dylan: his names Phil??? Me: ......no...

22:33 "I wanna do more than kiss her" Well, funnily enough there's a version of this fairy tale from 1600 where the sleeping beauty gets pricked by a thorn and she falls asleep, and the entire kingdom with her, after a fairy casts a spell on everybody, and makes a forest grow around the castle. Many years later a king, who was hunting in the vicinity, finds the castle and the sleeping beauty (still "dead", or asleep whatever) rapes her and leaves. Nine months later she gives birth to twins, and when reaching for her breast for feeding themselves, one of them sucks her finger, pulls the thorn out and she finally wakes up. The story ends with sleeping beauty raising her children all by herself. You're welcome.

Morale of the story according to Dylan: getting Angelina Jolie > Being King.

Watching 13:35 and thought of Will Smith's slap at the Oscars LMAO

I would like to take a moment to recognize that Dylan referenced Flynn Ryder twice in this video. My boy getting the respect he deserves.

Some of the earlier Disney live actions like Malificent, Cinderella, and Enchanted are insanely underrated

Not gonna lie, I thought I was gonna hate this movie when I watched it on HBO a couple of years back. However, I actually ended up liking it. It was nice to see a back story to why Malificent acted the way she did. The special effects were done nicely too so that was a plus.

I honestly think that Maleficent cursing Aurora was justified in this movie. Stefan was Maleficent's childhood friend. He became her friend, and he gave her true love's kiss and threw away his ring, because the ring burned her and caused her pain. Then he comes back, as a man, and warns her that the King is planning to kill her...He creates the illusion that Maleficent is safe with him, but when Maleficent wakes up the following morning, she discovers that he didn't take her life, but he DID take her wings. I think that is even worse....because she loved him and trusted him and he not only betrayed her love, he broke her trust, and he did it for the most selfish of reasons - to become King. And then, he makes the insult worse by choosing to marry another, and he has a child with his new Queen. So not only did he betray Maleficent and violate her in the worst way he could, he then cast her aside, like she was nothing, to satisfy his selfish desire to gain power and become King. When Maleficent invokes her curse on the princess at her christening, I think her doing this, was Stefan's worst nightmare, because really, she's hurting him in the worst way possible....she's robbing Stefan of what he finds most precious - his daughter - just as Stefan robbed Maleficent of her wings...in essence, her very identity as a Fairy. When she sees Aurora in the forest, with the Fairies, while she initially despises the child and wants nothing to do with her, as the years pass, Maleficent sees Aurora as the daughter she might have had with Stefan, had their love endured and so, she finds herself bonding with Aurora, and even loving her and adopting the princess as her own daughter. That is why she was able to break the curse in the end....Stefan broke Maleficent's heart, but her love for Aurora allowed Maleficent's heart to be healed.

Dylan: "I'm not doing any Disney reviews!!!" Also Dylan: exclusively reviews Disney films for a full month...

"Why Don't More People LOVE This Movie??" RIGHT? i always felt i was the only person in the world who liked this movie. what's more, among the live action disney movies, i think this is the best one

Maleficent is the perfect example of "The villain is evil, just misunderstood."

1:19 THAT'S WHERE THE TIKTOK SOUND'S FROM???

2:16 I love how people subconsciously still dislike Dolores Umbridge 😂

11:37 I think we can all agree that the crow is the best character in the movie.

I think that the reason She didn’t use her magic at the fight scene was because she was completely surrounded by the iron and that might have made her magic less powerful

2:20 when you don’t even remember her but your subconscious hates Umbridge 😂

I'm so glad Aurora's dresses are historically adequate

Maleficent: He did this so he could be king.... Dylan: Yep, get him Mallie.

The fact it was actually Angelina's real daughter as a toddler Aurora was SO CUTE

no one: literally not a soul: nothing in existence: dylan: IS THAT A PROSTHETIC NOSE?

is no one's gonna talk about those 3 fairy being a betrayer of their kingdom? I mean human try to destroy their home multiple times yet they bless that princess

That CGI ness doesn't creep me out, but the fact that the fairy you chose to freeze-frame is Dolores *freaking* Umbridge definitely does!

They could only get Angelina’s daughter to play young Aurora bc she was the only kid who wasn’t scared of her and just wanted to play with her 😭🥺❤️ it’s so wholesome

people are FINALLY acknowledging Maleficent, to me it always felt underrated compared to the other disney films edit: 2:17 i'm surprised dylan didn't realise that the fairy is umbridge from harry potter
