Roxy The Prince of Egypt The Prince of Egypt do you know what the story is I think I think I know I think it's probably about Let My People Go our Exodus escape from Egypt yeah is that what this is and then he like you know defeated Goliath oh after eating the Apple that gave him super powers and Kane yeah and then people came in and the Jews took over the movie and music and business right afterwards right right all started with Moses back in the day yeah Moses is the homie man hey leave a like yeah this is fun I have carte blanche because I'm Jewish oh so you can't say as much you can't mess around like I can't this is exactly even if I was Catholic Catholics don't like when you make fun together oh yeah but Jews can get away with it yeah you'd be surprised that's true there are certain camps where were you in 1998 that you missed this um probably a really abusive situation you were you were uh the princess your home Prince of North Hollywood at the time Old Testament and the Torah are essentially the same right what we got is the Old Testament what you got is the old in the New Testament yeah yeah we got the sequel yeah yeah we essentially got half of what you have you're like nope he guess who's back but you don't but you don't call it the Old Testament right so I guess it would just be the Testament I know you really respect your people and your culture and you really fight for their rights they're not like religious no so that the Jews there is um reform conservative and Orthodox I am reformed do things like put an orange on my seder plate a secular Jew so okay a non-religious Jew but the tradition stuff is sick because it's only it's an ethno religion ethnically I'm cool Jewish but religiously I believe in the people are you religious no I grew up a hardcore Catholic though with like the church yeah the the church the New Testament Church uh yeah I grew up hardcore with the confession stuff yeah there's part of the package yeah wow that was an altar server I don't remember sometimes the difference between Catholic and the other one so that's the one with the Pope catholic's the one you mainly see in the movies full length three action Watcher lungs and by the way thank you to all joined our patreon because we've gotten so many people joining ever since we've been doing these moving reactions soon you'll you'll have some solo ones here just give you a few more in here whoa yeah it's because I told them how sexy they are when they join super sexy Rejects you don't like subtitles right it's a musical let's find out this is like Les Mis okay so does part Musical they're going hard in this opening I wonder why they wanted to make this movie for kids so the story can be more accessible for everyone I suppose this is an important cultural story that's what Rugrats are for though [Music] God you know hand-drawn animation just gets so much more motion I love it I have nothing I can give I'm glad she's transitioned to English [Music] what was that word Deliverance Deliver Us Deliver us if we had subtitles we could have [Music] Deliver us to the promised land so she's sending Moses in the basket down the river but they're not giving much of a backstory I'm sure we'll get it [Music] [Music] oh cute little Moses it's a young Charlton Heston right there [Music] this is some powerful music some might say harrowing not the hippos wow look at baby Moses go being protected by the seat that is exactly how we were always taught the story though really yeah like the biscuit has to go through and then they describe like the worst conditions oh no way I totally missed that part brother [Music] you open that you find it's a kid are you like smiling like that or are you like how much can I make off this baby that's where my mind goes come back someday she tracked all the way to here snuck in peer in on this feels like you could have just brought the basket come Ramesses we will show Pharaoh your new baby brother an interesting Hair Choice on the side like that how'd you like your face carved on the wall someday yes how about now [Applause] whoa whoa guys come on Moses admit it you've always looked up to me yes but it's not much of a view [Laughter] wow you gotta get the Jews out of Egypt thank you uh are they gonna ruin all this wow turn that frown up Sunday that feels like symbolism for Jewish noses but that's not a Jewish note maybe that's why it came off so easy [Music] I seek to build an Empire and your only thought is to amuse yourselves by tearing it down have I taught you nothing is that a letterbox the fault is mine I go did Ramesses on and so I am responsible responsible and do you know the meaning of that word ramessy the theme to understand the task for which your birth has destined you the ancient Traditions one damaged Temple does not destroy centers of tradition but one weak link pharmacies that you're wildly Reckless the ridiculous you destroyed the entire town must you be so hard on him Moses [Laughter] all he cares about is is your approval I know he will live up to your expectations he only needs the opportunity do you think he always stands there hoping he is in alignment with a statue I don't know but it is a great shot single-handedly you will manage to bring the greatest Kingdom on Earth to ruin why is it that every time you start something I'm the one who ends up in trouble it's interesting to have him have a British accent like this Classic Hollywood you're in trouble get down here I think you owe us an apology you might as well oh they got along so well you care too much and your problem is you don't care at all oh in that case I suppose you care a lot more than I do that we're late for the banquet for example don't worry guys Moses gonna care so much by the end of this yeah they do make them both such punks we present for your delectation and Delight delicious stolen from far away land oh that's messed up we offer you this delicate desert flower this is very jasmine-esque yeah I feel like she's also going to become a love interest here but what an introduction for a love interest Cobra you will show the proper respect for a prince of Egypt none wait like it's a human what's wrong with you guys [Music] [Applause] Moses is a twerp and he's not gonna have a character Arch at all in this movie he's gonna remain that way Moses as Royal Chief Architect awesome he earned it by torturing this poor woman I want that ring Loki I have that ring [Music] that's my sister isn't it well laughs right she tied them all up even dogs yeah that's kind of rude wow I'll go ahead of the time this movie was with how woke it is tying up dogs come get him a woman you know just being independent princess oh he's good he's gonna help her there's a man tied up in my room well look into it right away sir Moses is all right I need water I have a long journey ahead of me may God protect you I hope it's not a sister because he has a crush at different times back then Roxy that's some Luke Laya oh sorry I'm so sorry that's her yeah yeah I didn't expect to see you here didn't I tell you Aaron didn't I tell you I knew he would return to us when he was ready is that Sandra Bullock I knew you cared about our freedom freedom why would I care about that because you're you our brother oh dude that's not how you do it she's already knew who never told me what you you know be careful slave she's exhausted from the day's work not that it was too much we we quite enjoyed it you are not a prince of Egypt please Moses you must believe that's enough you were born of my mother stop it you are our brother wow wow your highness she's ill we beg your forgiveness please Miriam man this is tense I save my life from who ask the man that man that you call Father is he Jeff Goldblum God saved you to be our deliverer enough of this and you are Moses I said enough um you will regret this night and what is your name again so I can tell on you no baby ah this baby ears remembered bring him all back remember my last lullaby wow [Music] that was triggering for him yeah imagine when he gets around a hippo that's her best joke yeah sweet perfumes of incense and graceful rooms of alabaster storm all I have a wanted the singing's internal yeah I have a sovereign Prince of Egypt had stunned everyone surely this is all I ever wanted no it's not buddy come on man you know you want to get rid of that wig [Music] what a zoom [Music] whoa whoa what a crazy nightmare to be having I love this animation choice yes good hide in the plants [Music] people is that they are people [Music] you know what I mean I mean as long as he does something I think we're good but he's only gonna do something because he finds out it's his people maybe it's just a catalyst to change [Music] wow is he like having like a vision of all this right now I don't know [Music] foreign [Music] stop running from the true history I really did like that sequence especially doing it through that animation style that's how people dictated history back then [Music] oh they really do little penises on all of them you see that it's the first scene most harrowing shot of the whole movie so far like wow the roast yourself Father tell me you didn't do this Moses sometimes just knows for the greater good grief is must be made oh he was paying by it apparently how did Moses not know about this how would you even know sacrifices they were only slaves oh I think he was just completely ignorant to how slaves releasing this depiction of how slaves are yeah however they were treated just as people is this where you found me so everything I thought everything I am is a lie now you're just adopted dude this is your whole [Music] send you a blessing you don't ask why it was said I actually liking the musical numbers they they really carry the narrative forward instead of just being fun yeah they are very serious I understand why they're not like catchy catchy sing-alongs you play in the family yeah although I have heard a lot of them I'm here [Music] there's nothing that we can do oh stop here it is let's go Moses come on Moses so is this leave that man alone there it is oh damn um who did this a bear it was Ramses can they tell if that's Moses down there I mean everyone up there can yeah up here but down there they say who did that that guy up there Moses can't you see brother I can't stay here any longer Moses no all I've ever known to be true is a lie I'm not who you think I am damn you're Roxy now he just keep seeing it like did you always start caring because he's Jewish got her really stuck in my head it's tough to oversee [Music] oh they really did get along they were effing things up all over town I know man they're like Bonnie and Clyde but in a sibling way okay I feel like there's a lot of other references maybe I couldn't pull it at the time I still can't pull it now I can't think of one even right now [Music] good pull he did it thank you I think that's what we were going for foreign the detail of hand-drawn animations is so much more enticing I'm gonna get so much heat for this but this isn't Disney is it it's DreamWorks oh it's DreamWorks yeah but there are parts of it that remind me of like a cross between Aladdin and Pocahontas that man is how are you gonna prove to anybody or you [Music] wow that was a fast wow laughs your eyes would be burned out oh she looks like a plant ouch oh oh I think he wanted to die wait wait I do like the angle that we came to the realization of everything from being a spiritual journey that he had in his own head you're just trying to make excuses for him yeah it's really just a selfish guy [Music] time to kill more people Moses killing is not the way Greg it becomes one of The Commandments aren't these your camels yeah get that Marvel body shot not well made not well made he's been cleansed in water and I just got that trying to get the funny man out of the way oh what are the odds is she gonna not recognize him I think she's gonna know exactly who he is I don't think so [Music] [Applause] bummer good one he helped you escape he also humiliated her in public yeah that's true that's some Stockholm thing that I was saying no not there how do you get out ladies who've cleaned every inch of me not every I was wrong it went for the buy I'm excited for this part of the movie yeah when it finally focuses on the I'm doing good yeah she'll be my honored guest my father Jethro high priest of Midian oh yeah get to know your people let us give thanks for this Bountiful food soak your thanks for the presence of this Brave young man whom we honor here tonight so because they know what he did yeah I believe so first you rescue Sephora from Egypt then you defend my younger daughters from break-ins how about those two things a single thread in a tapestry though its color brightly shine you can never see its purpose in the pattern of The Grand Design how's the dance moves yeah yeah we've changed you're enchanting does it think it's more yes look at your life through Heaven's eyes [Applause] ah this is what you guys do every Hanukkah no he's a high priest they're not even part of the tribe I know those things my shepherd boy is greater than the richest king or is it the beginning of a new and brighter birth he was cleansed in the well the answer will come to him who tries to look at his life through Heaven's eye there's always this like Hakuna Matata walking across that happens in these movies and this is this chance with me you know the moves [Laughter] [Music] that's the actual dance moves yeah you're getting married [Applause] I love that this is eyebrows are brown still [Applause] oh look at him having a great life oh they're married now I love you is it true yeah just see what happened they just got married well there was a white whatever but I didn't know it was the end of like it happened very fast guy I was gonna say where's the bush is this less of a bush and more of a more of a Tweaky plant in the in the woods we're gonna do an animated Burning Bush you couldn't make it more bushy meat wield the fire warrior Yahweh I am that I am and if I wasn't then why would I say I am everyday I I am the god of Abraham Isaac and and Jacob all juice I have seen the oppression of my people in Egypt so I have come down to deliver them out of slavery get to work Moses and so unto Pharaoh I shall send you man imagine the pressure I was The Prince of Egypt the son of the man who slaughtered their children you've you've chosen the wrong messenger how can I even speak no that's why you're the right messenger who made the death the mute the seeing or the blind did not I now go I am full of love hey I'm sorry I had an I didn't mean to yell at you Moses Pharaoh will not listen so I will stretch out my hand and smite Egypt with all my wonders take the staff in your hand Moses with it you shall do my wonders I shall be with you Moses if nothing for nothing that would be the craziest like if that's you I don't think I'd tell anyone we'll get it really hard for people to believe you on such a thing [Music] the dad's dead already right now right premises it's so good to see you excuse me uh your majesty this man committed a serious crime against the gods yet the law clearly states the punishment for such a crime death we hesitate to say Be Still he would be killed for murdering a slave no he didn't murder the slave he murdered the person hanging the slave over oh yeah yeah that's right I pardon forever all crimes of which she stands accused he is our brother Moses Prince my God this is real like Donald Trump situation not to make this religious video political guys you know I am a Hebrew and the god of the Hebrews came to me he commands that you let his people go you could read a book on communication on how to handle this behold the power of God awesome very well Moses I'll play along give this Snake Charmer our answer wait what are they able to do stuff too oh okay I thought they were just like casting out the line by the power of raw mute [Music] really working hard I went up the snake trick huh [Music] I mean you're playing with the big boys now playing with the big boys now oh that's pretty stop this foolish Mission pick up your silly poop boy you're playing with the big boys they just have these theatrics ready to go oh catchy song there are a lot of Disney Animation flourishes here for sure you know this song oh yeah look what do you see a greater Egypt than that of my father that is not what I see you have written little freedom [Music] oh he's making it official [Music] oh he's got cat eyes I did not know this God neither will I let your people go that is the opposite of the song they let that Easter egg on for us early how does it feel when you get struck to the ground when did you start caring about slaves was it when you found out that you were one of us yeah oh wow God saved you from the river he saved you in all your wanderings and even now he saves you from the wrath of pharaoh no you're always getting a pass so don't you abandon us foreign man you got some tricks up your sleeve is it part of the traditional story that or Moses would do like one of these Godly acts that the Egyptians would come back with something else like oh there's my snake trick all right well let me one up your snake trick and show you how to do this yeah that is part of it okay I don't know about the like theatrics of the things coming in from the walls and all that but yeah let my people go bring him to me great music Moses [Music] this is when he walks on water that's what Jesus does he's gonna throw this in there the red blood yeah because I was thinking about Moses parts of seas but that's when they're leaving that's what Jesus does good point good point I mix up my eyes [Music] I'm going back to the boat instead of on the land straight the superior might of our God by the power of raw that's not the same thing he turned a whole river abandon this for like futile Mission Moses I've indulged you long enough this must now be finished it's just not the same thing well he must be an idiot microwave food your home Freedom with one word Pharaoh can take away your very lives get to the good part yep but there is one thing he cannot take away from you your Judaism your faith that one guy's like what does that get information it's just like sulking see this is what they can't come back uh you never know man they pull out a bunch of crazy earlier oh they're gonna show us all of them at once the Locust one man oh there it is once I called you brother once I thought the chance to make you laugh was all I ever wanted thank you come on Ramesses you got to pay attention man they're like showing Ramses oh look we do the same thing yeah Devastation how it tortures me inside huh I never looked at it from that point of view that this would probably paint Moses as well just to do this to the Egyptians [Music] man when the visuals go dark it's pretty impressive you who I call brother wanted he just wants one thing man [Applause] [Music] that he's in red and green um Ramesses you want me to let your people go yeah yeah it's pretty easy get different people I remember the time you switch the heads of the Gods of the temple of Ra that was funny you were there switching heads right along with me I didn't do that oh yes you did you put the hippo on the crocodile and the crocodile on the Falcon don't reminisce guys oh that was Furious you were always getting me into trouble this is the story of Greg and jabby Coy right here the dog it's about to get a lot darker for you kid isn't that cause no Kingdom should be made on the backs of slaves something else is coming something much worse than anything before let go of your contempt for life before it destroys everything I don't know if he knows sounds like you know I think it's time I finished the jaw Ramesses and there shall be a great cry in all of Egypt such as never has been or ever will be again [Applause] there it is you bring this upon yourself but Ramesses is the firstborn and Ramesses son take a lamb and with its blood Mark the little and posts of every door that's what you see on the door here before you enter I shall pass through the land of Egypt and smite all the firstborn that's not you hardly gonna do this I will pass over you and the plague shall not enter okay so now he definitely knows freak over here whole movie I've been like how are they gonna do this scene oh my God literally first Contact wow what a fascinating visual yeah interesting choice that's coming from the sky oh oh it's like an uh Apparition kind of a presence fear whoa so it almost visually like takes it takes their breath yeah that is haunting cool sounds is that Ramesses in the Sun uh yeah it's confusing though as Ramesses not the firstborn he is but that only one after the children like under 18. it's legal age you mission oh oh yeah and then he changes his mind bro spoilers [Music] and that is conflicting I remember like read this or heard the story or read it it was always like yeah most one in there did his thing right but you're actually seeing how much of a toll this took on him [Music] we are not afraid although we know there's much to fear there can be miracles when you believe are you doing on this yeah this was the this is another Banger in this time of fear when prayers so often proved in vain hope seemed like the summer first to swiftly flown away they're great songs God who knows Miracles you can achieve that's awesome they bring that actual language [Music] it's the word language [Music] but he's about to try to stop them that jerk just let him go enough is enough let them go strong like attainable way for children to get the story but what do you feel like Bare Bones for sure what do you feel like though is like the main lesson of this for kids don't enslave people yeah I suppose some kids need to be taught that [Music] I don't think we're actually gonna get to the Commandments in this movie Are We I think we're just gonna part the seas foreign it's not gonna work and then we're gonna end the movie right there [Music] oh wow [Music] like why would you go after them knowing what just happened I mean he never learned a lesson man I have nothing else to lose [Music] yeah [Music] he accidentally turns it to blood first sure [Music] wow it's beautiful visual Aquaman three all right I believe Aaron your real brother no one's even pushing must be freezing in there [Music] look at the fish that's that was sick looking oh that's really cool I like that best aquarium ever me too man that would be awesome to see you're gonna you think that God's gonna be chill with you going in there after everything he's shown you why leave it be my dude [Music] get that foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] horrible way to die he is like the greatest failure foreign motions you must feel in a moment like that you can feel a few things at once but relief has to be top of the list oh yeah come on gather around here are the Commandments no way I think we got to get to in some way at least a post-crediting [Laughter] I thought he did die right because they're off curse it be thy name Ramesses will return 2024. goodbye brother ah and then they were free then eventually they all grew very negative we were free for like a hot sack we get enslaved real quick again [Music] post credits let's hear credits that we're gonna reserve it [Music] is that satisfying enough for you that moment like if you're a kid you have no idea what just happened yeah no it's literally like a postcard scene [Music] [Music] oh three people directed this man I mean I feel like the movies made for all kinds of Camp these kind of movies of uh of When You Believe by Mariah Carey that's awesome I will get through my voice to men also this is that's crazy who would have thunk it this song right now the postcard is ever that's her version of it um the the the SE kind of movies are made for people who know the story and for also the meant to like introduce you if you don't know the story and yeah I mean to me I was a kind of got what I expected going into it did you to me I did yeah definitely I mean I I think it's a I feel conflicted for a couple different ways I I reasons I think that they did a very good job with this but it's like I I wonder when you're talking about who's who's supposed to get what from this like if this is what do you get from the story itself the actual story the story that I know yeah yeah what did like what what are the lessons that I took when I first learned it kind of thing um yeah definitely I think that like you hit the nail in the head obviously like you nobody owns anybody and you're not like just because you're in a position of power doesn't mean you should use it for evil um and you're not nobody's expected to do anything for you like and then from the religious standpoint you know the actual element of God will be there to help you out and that's also the like to me the the Journey of this has always been like the build up to the tenure man like totally I think for me and you and tell me if I'm if I'm mistaken but like as two seconds uh as two non-believers I don't know if you call yourself secular um but I believe uh I'm one of those people when I say like I'm I've really it's a very La thing to be like I'm spiritual not religious but there is I have a big spiritual sense in the way of like I do believe uh and like let me just like formulate like most La kind of things like a law of attraction kind of thing like to me like that's that Universe yeah yeah I believe in all that and uh and and I so I do believe in like energies and all that jazz right um and I and I mean that full-heartedly uh but yeah do I necessarily but but I really respect people's religious beliefs I really do all things considered I do um well I think that that maybe you feel differently about this but I so I would call myself agnostic which essentially means who the hell knows um I have no idea like how how could I possibly know is how I feel and my mom also I also ride that line I'd say so like I don't know if there's a afterlife like why would there be I don't understand what that means yeah I don't know like I think that's like it does take a level some level of arrogance to pretend that anybody knows yeah um which I don't so I don't really pay attention to I've read the Bible before um I don't really like new testament too we you want to know something really interesting we read it in my AP journalism class wow in high school um holy crap that's crazy it was interesting like as a as a piece of literature I suppose yeah whatever it was interesting but um I so I pay attention in stories and I think some of the stories are just brilliant with great messages when it comes to the religious aspect of it it doesn't affect me as much so it does kind of push these stories partially lose me when we are talking to a bush and it's not your inner voice it is god um who's doing these things that couldn't be done you know so I I am I am curious like the message for little kids if you're not a religious little kid what is the takeaway versus if you are is it like you said God will guide you no matter right well I think also the message of standing up for the right thing as well like to me a you know I think they made a movie about Harriet Tubman I haven't seen this movie but I love The Story of Harriet Tubman when they did call her like one of her nicknames was Moses and she herself had had a vision uh to go and like help out slaves and save them and stuff you know Harriet Tubman yeah of course I know Harry some people don't um oh gosh and so like to me I'm like oh there's no judgment on the people who don't but yeah yeah but but to me I'm like no that's a beautiful story of someone who really felt that God communicated to them and they had to go save that so to me I'm like yeah I was communicated for her to what she needed to do as opposed to like Moses obviously isn't sending locusts and boils and blood in the water like that's coming from God right but he's still challenging his whole identity and upbringing that he had and then what he called family and having to go against that like the movie doesn't strongly go into that side of it but I can imagine from a cycle like I was appreciative of seeing the uh uh the slightly different shades of of when he was like oh yeah I didn't ever think of how this could be hard for someone like Moses because at the end of the day this is where he grew up this is his family and he's helping to he's aiding at the very least and burning it all to the ground I think that that's very relevant today for sure like especially with the strong political world that we're living in yeah to develop your own beliefs that are not your family's beliefs can be very challenging for people absolutely and I think that that wrong true here it did bother me more than I expected I know he laughed about it during this but like how much Moses in this depiction is blind until it's relevant to him and I know that a lot of people are like that but I I I'm so glad they they verbalize that out loud because that so shouldn't be the message for children yeah like you know um and then they came for me like that you can't just support people who deserve to be supported yeah when they're your people yeah no I full heartedly granted I never even looked at it from that angle until you said it and I was like she's so right and then I couldn't stop seeing it at the movie pointed out like okay so it's intentional yeah it was like Aaron right he was just like what until yeah I was like way late into the movie you were a slave yeah but it was uh it was a purposeful choice I guess to depict it that way because yeah I mean I think the movie itself was I thought I think there's a lot like from I'm looking from like the perspective of it's a 90s animated movie and at the time to do it I imagine took it's kind of a bold move for to do like a kid like an animated movie and then two at times not uh uh like you have to find the level of Restraint of like how dark can we go but we can't go too light-hearted or else then it's kind of like taken away from what the story is All About and I thought for the most part to make like a family film that is except Like A Accessible family film for this story like while some stuff might get a little bit lost in the messaging I think that's important I can't make a like a freaking Schindler's List out of this guy you know what I mean absolutely I'm super with you I speaking of loss in the messaging though and I feel like I have a good grip on this story mostly I am confused about what happened with his wife's family I don't know I don't know any of that yeah like it makes you want to do a deep dive of like I know we had kids and but I don't know any of it so they're living in the um uh in hiding in the desert and they are who like were they slaves that escaped were they um Egyptians that escaped like what is with the high priest situation being her dad like are they running their own society and then when we see that they leave um or when we see them on the other side of the water when she he's holding a kid presumably his so we know that she gets out the kid gets out but like where was the rest of the family um or that I want to call it a tribe I don't know what they but like that other Society Group whatever and what what who was that that's the part where I'm like okay I have a big hole in whatever this story is yeah you can easily look it up can't we okay I mean I thought like Voice work though still while I'm looking this up it was like A-list celebs yeah I thought that's Val Kilmer yeah I thought he was great um I thought it was wonderful uh Jeff Goldblum haven't heard him be so serious in so long Michelle Pfeiffer who is Michelle Pfeiffer that's the uh um girl the hobby wifey it's fun talking about this with you because this is like akin to when you watch a comic book movie and you know the source material yeah it's like breaking it down yeah I but I don't know enough or anything okay let's see do you remember her name yeah Zapora so it's the wife of Moses and um she was voiced by Michelle Pfeiffer who did both her speaking and singing wow great job with the singing uh who is she in the Midian is the daughter of role and the priest of Prince of Midian this shouldn't be so hard to figure out yeah and the Torah zipporah was one of the Seven Daughters uh um okay while the Israelites and Hebrews were captured in Egypt Moses killed an Egyptian who was striking Hebrew for which uh offends Pharaoh sought to kill Moses Moses let's see this all stays in the video but is she [Music] what okay yeah is she in Israelite or what is her background priest of midians let's go to the actual Source material here the Wikipedia or the Bible Midian minion is uh uh Western in the Hebrew Bible in Quran uh Northwest Arabian Peninsula uh okay according to the Book of Genesis the midianites were the descendants of Midian who was the son of Abraham oh yeah so she was a descendant he was a Scientologist huh consider her different than now let's just watch Roxy and Greg read it themselves random things about median culture yeah um I might have to look more in there all right yeah just I'm gonna have to look more into her because like who is that and how how did they get out of being enslaved uh they just went really far away [Music] they had to escape and they won't really I don't know I don't know that part of the story me neither it was interesting when they decided to include it oh yeah you got to have the love angle and it was a motivating factor for him if that is how it went in the story itself I I so I presume um because yeah they're I mean there's so much more that happens after they ask they get to the prom like I skipped past a lot that got to the Ten Commandments and then even after the Ten Commandments and you know for the family so I'm like yeah you keep a focused on the main message of the main part of the story because there's some like dark stuff that happens like you mentioned now they become they they go back to being slaved yeah yeah um and then not and then again and then not and then again and yeah I still have multiple holidays to get to we haven't dealt with Passover yeah we haven't gotten to anything so come on they haven't even done like uh yeah I haven't even done a Hanukkah movie it's almost as if there should be one I know maybe a romantic comedy that's what I'm thinking uh but yeah but I think like over when I when I try to recontextualize it in my head of like oh yeah I didn't even know about the musical numbers you barely knew all of them but I thought they were great I thought they were beautiful is it weird to know something and you don't know you know where you don't have a question where it's from I have no idea how I know that happened when we were watching trolls yeah I was like I was just dance yeah yeah totally if you were a kid watching this do you think you would have enjoyed it I'd imagine so I feel like I would need to know but I also feel like back then I don't know what it's like for kids growing up now but I feel like back then it was much more like a Christian it still is but it was much more of like a Christian dominant America now like the media is like people make fun of it like a religion all the time now and talk against religion all the time at least when I was growing up maybe it was just because I grew up in like within religion I feel like it was really like not cool to do that on media and so I think like it was really predominant like now like this is DreamWorks made for everyone and granted it's a story of Moses and it's been told a bazillion times uh so it's not it's not the same as like one of those you know just exclusively produced Christian movies that like Christian audiences flock to like I found one of those uh but I like but I don't know if um I feel like there'll be a lot of things I did I wouldn't understand if I just didn't actually know the story because a lot of it is treated in that way like you kind of need to know it but why is he carrying those stones at the end yeah what is what is that to encourage um but you know like this this story of someone who who did go against his family uh what he grew up with and it was it was a tall order for him you know like he he ran away from it and he had to face his fears so there are Shades in there but I think overall this is like a I want to call it a cute family film but it's a I think it was a little bit more respective in certain areas and and a little bit more Vivid with this animation espresso than I actually expected it to be I'm totally with you on that the music really helped I know we were joking in the beginning like I don't know how they're gonna make a musical but it was like it's so important that this was had music in it I actually drove the narrative yeah yeah it would have been a little stale otherwise yeah I mean for kids let's go on it adds a bit of it actually helps for a good medium yes to not because because I have moments really like they got to be a little bit comedic it's animated movie um but it was so jarring if it was like just pure drama and then Super comic like like a super funny moment and so the the music helps as a good transition uh for those moments but yeah I think the music is great I know you were concerned about how we were going to kill the firstborn and they did a great job yeah they really do they killed those firstborns so well that's silence but with the likes really good it does make your heart like kind of stop for a moment there's a little bit it is like a soul-sucking moment yeah you feel it in the You Feel It In the Land here this is the land no like the atmosphere throughout the land yeah oh of uh that like sucking the air out of the room literally yeah yeah it's a good way to put it yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah how do you feel to be sitting with the chosen person feel honored I don't think no other people have reacted to this I don't think anyone's gonna get a discussion about this the way we're talking about an interaction okay well what people say right you might have had to sit through some weird jokes from Roxy and correct throughout what you got to this fire like they're having a real talk about this movie right now yeah we did yeah he did um I I dug this I enjoyed it I I overall enjoyed it it was it was a it was a Brisk brisk uh Cliff Notes version of the book of Exodus what is it called in in the in the Old Testament Exodus and not in the Old Testament Exodus and um uh oh my God what's your what's your book called that's what it is is it called the Old Testament yeah The Testament Judaism yeah no that's what we that's it I thought it was called something else it's called Exodus um yeah I I don't know what other thing the lesson of Exodus God is Not simple but he does keep his promises wow okay I would say I don't want people to say that about me yeah it's one thing I could give about Greg he ain't a simple guy but he keeps his promises just like God that's pretty good uh I guess it is called Exodus all right well guys what do you think about the Prince of Egypt ah here it is shemat that's why I've texted you oh um that's uh I think the Hebrew word for Exodus Maybe that's what I was looking for that might be it is that what that is I guess so it's in quotes here um cool word dope dope dope dope dope all righty I still know my whole tour portion you want to know it yeah why not we're at the end it would take literally 30 minutes but I can give you uh the first part
