This video is brought to you by BetterHelp.
If you're listening to Apple and Spotify, we just watched the 2023 version of the color purple.
Roxy had zero interest in.
watching this i had to convince her it was a phone call they're listening right now so they can't see
me rolling my eyes on apple on spotify well i mean the rolling the eyes is just a act that she's
putting up to make it seem like she was super she was pushing against if you believe me give us five
stars um and i had seen the i know it's based on a book and i had seen the other film right here
on this channel that like there were the ending scene of the the first movie there were
Two scenes that made me really cry in the original one, like balled right here on this channel.
And one was just a moment with Whoopi Goldberg's, like when she breaks into a smile, like a real smile when she's Whitschug.
Did Whoopi Goldberg win for this?
I don't know, actually.
And then the ending scene really did make me like bawling the last time around.
And so this was like a different kind of viewing experience for me than for you because I was like watching, oh, there's remake elements and I'm aware of filmmaking technician stuff.
and I'm also seeing like what they trimmed and I'm curious to see how they adapted.
So it was like a different kind of lens when the other one is fairly fresh in my mind.
Like it's a few months ago, but it's still fairly fresh in my mind.
So I had kind of a, oh, I'm fascinated by this.
And so I wasn't like quite moved to the emotional heights you were moved to by the end there
because a lot of this was very fresh for you and new.
I loved the movie that I like this more than the original film.
And the original one, while I was very much moved by, I did feel as a little sappy, a little, like, I don't know, overly sentimental.
Assistant to O. Winfrey, assistant to S. Spielberg.
It's amazing.
Who are they? Who's O. Winfrey?
I still, I thought that this movie just was vibrant.
The musical numbers are the exact kind of jams I love to listen to.
And I thought it would help really move the narrative and the emotional experience forward as opposed to pause, take a break for the music numbers, and they blended seamlessly with the rest of the movie in a way that felt like it wasn't detracting or taking attention away.
Because sometimes in I think musical movies, there has to be a way to transition where it feels like it's a part of the same world.
And they did that here where I was never distracted by, oh, we're going into a musical number right now.
and somehow managed to balance tones
where you're dealing with, like, abuse, assault,
and still make a fun movie out of it?
I don't know how you do that.
They've managed to do it.
So, yeah, man, that was a really, really exceptional film to me.
And I do prefer it over the other film.
I feel empty inside now, Greg.
What do you feel empty?
I don't know.
I was such a difficult watch for me.
It was?
Oh, my God.
Why?
I don't know.
It's just.
Because they did what they were supposed to do, right?
It felt like her life was torture.
And then she finally finds happiness and gets everything that she always deserved
because she stayed true to herself as a beautiful person.
And life can't break your soul.
But it breaks most of our souls.
And if I were her, it would have broken my effing soul.
And it didn't.
And she stayed the chorus.
And it was just really a hard, hard watch.
Like they threw in all these upbeat songs that were amazing.
but I just feel like depleted and sad and just like just so effed up and then you know there's like on the one side all's well that ends well but on the other side it's not about the destination it's about the journey and oh my god she had like the hardest journey and so I thought the movie was a hard journey yeah you're not wrong yeah and I don't remember the first one and I don't remember being this sad oh my God I
is like so sad.
Yeah, but I think because I watched it when I was little,
I think I must have just not really like understood the grasp of everything going on.
You know,
like it's like watching Annie as a little kid and not really realizing what the hell is happening.
Like, just like listening, obviously that's, this wasn't a musical as a little bit like,
you don't know the weight of things.
You're seeing something and it's like, you know it's a movie and then.
I mean, they're harsher in the other movie.
Like, it goes.
I'm sure they were, but I was.
a kid so it didn't affect me the same yeah no i think they have like more disturbing elements it's
bleaker it's sadder and because it's nothing but trauma basically this felt like nothing but trauma
for two hours oh but you got the musical numbers which are so moving and stuff amazing and i think
that's probably why like the drama will hit you harder because i was like a it pretty much
follows the same beats like pretty much and then there's like stuff eliminated and then replaced with
musical numbers and then certain scenes happen in different locations and again i'm only
comparatively the original movie not the book i don't know the book uh so yeah like i and i think
a lot most of us who i think a lot of people will probably say like yeah i saw the movie from
belberg but i didn't i didn't read the book so i'm one of those people and who wrote the book i have
no idea what when was the book but it's it's i think it's a i mean a long time ago but i think it's a
very fascinating tale to see the legacy this specific story has told because it's so much about
endurance self-acceptance love faith and you watch it go from book to film to then a Broadway
musical to then getting adapted to it's been such a journey with this one tale yeah and uh with
characters that i've just stood the test of time and for for a story that doesn't it's not a conventional
tale you know it's a very specific kind of story and i'm i'm very wowed by how
even though i was i couldn't help get the original the other movie out of my mind only because of
how fresh it's been in there i was still very much more i think in and in some ways even though i
i didn't cry like i did the last one but that was because i was aware of the plot beats and i
had a different kind of lens watching this i still think that this movie was
sharper
um
i
the the voice behind the camera i thought
spoke louder volumes and rang more true to the actual story at hand
it actually felt more sincere and i weirdly say even though it's not as bleak it's a bleak
experience still but it's not as bleak it somehow feels more authentic and i can't quite pinpoint
that even though it embraces the fantastic to what like the reality
authentic in the sense that i don't feel any pretension behind the camera on this one and i i looked
it up afterwards too with with the other film because like opra's phenomenal on it danny glover
plays colman domingo's role he plays mr and uh whoopey goldberg uh is is incredible as celie in that
and I did look it up after because I was like I have these thoughts
and okay a lot of people also kind of feel this way too
it is it's like oh it's it's got it felt
spillory made it before Schindler's list and at the time of him
making that I'm just trying to recall exactly what I said
there was a bit of a pretentiousness to it where it feels like overly
sappy and romanticized the drama I was I was trying to look up if other people
felt the same way oh oh oh that it was pretentious
yeah yeah like you kind of needed a i feel like you needed a black director to make i think you need a black
director to make the color purple it's like someone who can kind of understand some of this
life in a way that doesn't feel like wow look at me making a drama you know yeah i don't think
it needs to be a black person like you're saying you think that he could do it with schindler's list
because he was jewish and doing that see i don't even want to like say that i didn't know what you
brought up schindler's list for just i was saying i think his his his attention to detail
and his and his like schindler's list felt I reacted to that movie here too
broke my heart the there that had a sense of authenticity it didn't feel like a
romanticized drama in any way you know but the color purple but the color purple feels
feels like a highly produced television drama like a Hollywood blockbuster
I would say a blockbuster it feels like a like a television drama that like
like a television made for tv movie yeah but like with a big budget and well really really well done
version but you can't see past like that's interesting that's how i personally felt about it even
though i was moved by the film simultaneously uh and uh this to me while bigger more of a scope
more variety has musical fantastical elements um i never got the feeling that whoever directed this was
trying too hard in a way like like oh you're overreaching like it always it always whatever heights
they were sore and for it always felt genuine that's I think that's the word more I'm looking
for is that there was a constant genuine voice to this interesting yeah I don't have the same
comparison thing that you do um to know I don't know why you would because this felt very fantastical
to me yeah yeah definitely um but I think the voice of the fantastic
musicalness is genuine you know what's crazy is like i a lot of times after a movie what was the
movie that we watched that um i found a destination four no no the movie that we watched where uh
it's that girl on the cover dead talk dead with the talk to me talk to me talk to me that's what
it was called and i was like i never want to see that again i'm i kind of feel about this movie i don't think
You could handle the original.
I love the music, and I would listen to this music all the time.
I think this movie was so well made, and watching it was, like, a true experience.
But I don't know that I could do that again.
I feel like, like, I honestly feel like crap right now.
Wow.
Like, I feel really, really not good.
Which is wild because the end is, like, a beautiful, and it was like happy tears at the end.
But I just, I don't know, watching, like, people go through pain and suffering for so many hours is so hard.
very hard yeah and i think uh that's one of the beautiful things about the color purple story is
finding finding um the love in the midst of such hardship yeah and they sing about that and
like having to it i just can't believe there's so many people on the planet who have to stay
good when the universe is giving them every reason to not beautiful messaging unbelievable lyrics
incredible dancing it's a sister movie it's like perfectly done and like i can't function right now fully
wow i wasn't expecting you'd be so effed up about it oh that's good to smile for a second good good
i haven't smiled in two hours and 33 minutes no but the end you know it's like some movies
have really depressing endings and then you usually walk away more upset this had a really uplifting
ending but like to get to that point man yeah uh yeah yeah that's and i actually didn't quite
think of it in that perspective that you have of like my depressed i'm coming from like the like the
really heavy drama version that's in my mind where they go like everything with sophia felt so much
worse in the other one and like the shit that she endures after she gets out of prison we see her
at the mayor's wives place there's this whole thing we're like yeah where she's working for her for a while
like you really gestated in a lot more stuff for longer this uh yeah i guess my mind was wandering
and imagining how all that would be and i just felt so bad for her too daniel brooks is like a real
star yeah whereas like this has like this contrast where like when the musical numbers would come
in i was having like a really good time yeah the one musical number that i there's a
few that i was able to have a really good time but the the the hallie bailey sister walk one
when we're still early on before there's been some abuse but not all of the abuse i was still like
feeling okay okay like the sisters you know what i'm trying to get into your head a little bit here
um it's okay so i mean to me it sounds like your viewing experience is also largely affected by
the fact that you do miss your sister yeah
Yeah, probably.
Yeah.
It was unfathable to me, like, to watch us and think about her being somewhere else
and not knowing that she was alive and somebody else knowing that and keeping that from you.
Mm.
Like, I hate him.
He's way worse than the other one.
I hate him.
I hate him for what he did.
All the things he did.
I really, really hate him.
And then he gets to be at the dinner because he's wearing the pants.
And I'm like, ugh, I hate you.
I hate you.
it's not good to have in your heart
Greg and the other film he's
from afar like he helps
from afar he's not like this whole like gathered
at the dinner I think
this kind of those like you know nods of approval
I've done good but it's always good and I'm like
I guess redemption for this guy
yeah it's like it doesn't forgive
the things that you have done but it's always
good to choose to do the right thing that was the right
thing to do it's better for him to do that than to never
do the right thing at all
well what I what I liked
if I if I can say
one thing because you know he's a man and we got to forgive men when they're abusive that's good
point you know i can say one thing it's forgive all if it's an ex-wife or a lover of a famous man oh man
may they be burnt at the cross so colman domingo right when he goes i remember phaithes in the other
story but what i liked was this whole thing when he feels the superstition kicks in he feels like
he's like he's really living in a curse right yeah yeah me that's what she does and uh when he's
feeling living the curse and then it echoes in his head like oh okay i got you right by her my mind was
thinking hmm i don't know how i feel about this if he's only going to do something good to help
himself out of the curse yeah and and so what i liked about when he goes to visit her at the store
He doesn't tell her.
He doesn't tell her any of this.
And she makes her peace with him there.
You know, she says, let's just be friends.
Like, she makes her peace.
So he doesn't, he didn't have to go the extra mile.
He didn't have to do this extra thing.
And she's able to forgive him.
And I'm just like, girl, how?
How are you this amazing of a human?
I can't.
Because that's what women do.
Yeah, it's just unbelievable, though.
You know, like he put her through, like as she said at the table,
he made her life a living hell.
truly absolutely yeah i think that was beautiful i mean to have a protagonist that you root for as
heavy as you root for her is always strong and i feel like maybe in a week if you ask me about
this movie i'll want to see it again but right now it really feels like somebody beat the crap
out of me and then gave me a cookie at the end well also like but i still got the shit kicked
out of me i mean also you're really sure you took the cookie from me in the fucking first place
If you're really sure, you're a woman, and I'm not a woman.
And I think a woman watching this will have a very different experience.
I think a black woman watches.
We have a very different experience, too.
Yeah, that, that too.
I mean, like, we haven't even spoken about any of the racial tones of this,
which I think it was interesting that you don't often watch a movie where we're going to, like, a time in our, what did you say?
Like, yeah, the 40 years gap.
No, no, I was, yes, but we're going back in American.
history and we're watching um the treatment of black women versus black men usually we're watching
the treatment of black people versus white people back in the early 1900s um and so watching like
what people who have a little bit of power but still are being kept down by society due to the
people who have even less power than them that was really it's it's it's upsetting what we do to
each other as human beings when when there are people like uh fantagia what's what's the main
character's name seely like seely then there's people like seely who like that's who should have
power in the world because she would do good with it and when she does finally get the shop
she does she's doing good and she's doing she's and it's like that's never who has the power
over anybody else i don't know it's just upsetting time to be alive yeah
Well, thank you to Better Help for sponsoring this video.
I've literally just finished a therapy session, and I wanted to shoot this because I'm in this state of knowing why I champion mental health support so much.
In the past few weeks, works me a little bit hectic.
It's led me to miss some sessions, and I really don't like doing that.
And sometimes that's when the way it really starts to pile on.
A lot of restless nights, a lot of fatigue, a lot of I can't sleep, even though I'm so tired.
Sometimes it's a very deep-seated sense of gloom.
Meditating and sometimes journaling are my daily go-toes.
But sometimes they just don't cut it when I'm trying to pinpoint why I'm down.
And really, especially after a session like today, therapy just really helps clear the fog.
Discussing the feelings is a critical step for me.
Especially as someone who's diagnosed with ADHD, type 2 bipolar, and PTSD.
It's truly a cornerstone of my well-being.
And I'm not alone in this.
Many of us here at Real Rejects are in therapy, facing our own challenges from depression to anxiety.
We're just needed a non-judgmental space to voice our thoughts.
This year, I've been working on most days of the week to keep my physical health strong,
and I really do champion therapy as a way to strengthen my mental resilience.

Thank you again.
So did you have any expectation of what is entailed in this movie?
I remember liking this movie.
But do you remember like any difficulties with subject matter in it?
It seems like that all this is completely left your brain.
You're like, wow, this is a mean movie.
No, no, I remember it being a serious drama.
But I didn't remember like being affected like this.
I remember like I have more experience.
This happened to me with a lot of kids that, a lot of.
movies I watched as a kid where as a kid you kind of just like it's a movie yeah but and this is a movie
it's not like you know as a kid I would think this is boring as shit as a kid I don't really
remember it that much I just remember thinking that it was a drama I mean I wasn't that I was probably
like 10 and it probably affected me a little bit but since you know I have a hard time remembering movies
in general so yeah it's yeah definitely left my brain more than I thought
definitely left my brain more than I thought
I remember being whoopee I loved
whoopee I dressed
well I don't know if that's for me to say I loved whoopee so much
I did class project on her and I
dressed as her obviously not what you're thinking
but for school yeah I had like a really cool jacket
what did you think I was thinking
what did you think I was thinking
when I said I dressed as whoopi Goldberg is how you roll your eyes
and do anything I didn't roll my eyes I went huh
Oh, yeah, I, like, loved her as a kid.
She was my idol.
And so I remember, I must have seen this and thought, I don't know, maybe I was just paying more attention to her.
I don't know.
This was hilarious.
No, I didn't think that.
This just really affected me.
I, well, on this movie, I didn't mean to steer this conversation in such a comparison piece.
And it's just hard for me not to.
Now I'm curious to you watch.
Especially because I reacted to the other one here a few months ago.
With who?
By myself?
I couldn't have done this by myself.
There was actually moments in this where I don't know if I, this might have been the quietest I've ever been in a reaction.
You're pretty quiet.
I couldn't like, I couldn't like verbalize any of my thoughts.
It was, it was worrying something.
I was like, she bored?
Is that what you thought?
I'm not like looking at you.
Here's to looking at you, kid.
Should I just do that the whole reaction?
next time
this next one
I was like
being kind of
quiet rocks
I want to speak up
a little bit
toots
I didn't like
you know how to
I want you
vocalize your thoughts
this man giving you
permission to talk
come on
good
I'm gonna be like
Danielle Brooks
you talk again
I beat the shit
out of you woman
that's a good voice
ha ha ha
ha
I am
Carmen Domingo
well he'd be
a pirate that's what you did you went her her her no it's the talkies i was doing what you were
doing you speak again and i'm you're doing a pirate voice that's not a pirate voice yeah i'm doing the
talkies okay the talkies are kind of like here the talkies are kind of like here
like that what's a pirate sound like i'm a pirate i'm a pirate matey you're not bad
I'm a pretty bad pirate um yeah okay well we'll close us out with this quick recap highlights
uh Hallie Bailey excellent loved her musical numbers thought the musical numbers were phenomenal great
choreography throughout costumes if this is not going to academy award nomination I'll be extremely
disappointed in it sure for sure Daniel Brooks I thought was my favorite performer honestly
um so good especially to follow in Oprah's footsteps like this movie made Oprah a star and
And to follow in her footsteps, I thought she completely lived up to it.
Taraji P. Hansen, excellent.
Just the gravitas and the magnetism, as you said during the reaction is so accurate to it.
So, Coleman Domingo.
So I did speak during the reaction.
Good.
Yeah, you said a couple of words.
Coleman, yeah, you recited the whole Sierra song.
Let me see you.
You thought of things to say.
want to stop and uh uh yeah everyone was great the look was awesome i thought there was so much great
expression fantasia as see i mean she was a excellent performer that was the one hurdle i was
having a difficult subjective time getting over was that granted whoopi does not sing in the other one
i was very much i actually i had a hard time not comparing
okay it was and i understand that pisses people off when you do that uh i'm just got to be honest
with you all i had a hard time like not comparing when it's doing the same beats as the other film
and whoopey goldberg that's a very iconic portrayal for her i was i found myself exceptionally
more connected to whoopee than i did uh with this portrayal oh wild and i think i think i would
i think it has something to do with because at one point i even said to you like i feel like we're not
really seeing Celie a lot.
When you said that I was thinking to myself, I feel like
we've spent a lot of time with her.
Yeah, and I think that's where my brain was having a bit
of a hard time.
Like being aware of, we've cut past
like a lot of stuff. A lot of
a lot of this follows the same beats, but a lot of the scenes are
shorter. Like, because they're, they trim
it, like that whole thing with the spitting in the
water thing. Like that goes on. Oh my God, don't don't, don't
don't. That's a way longer scene.
And
and that, so I would kind of
to be oh this is like a much shorter version of like i would just i would notice these things where i'm
like this is going on way shorter and and so i wonder if that had something to do with my impact
specifically with seely because i didn't feel that way with harpo with harpo and uh daniel brooks
i didn't feel that way with her uh coleman domingo i wasn't like he does a very something very
different than what danny glover did actually and so i was able to really just accept a lot of these
performances on their own merits.
Yet with Seeley, I, I was like,
Seeley's the one who like broke me in,
in, uh, in, in, in the last,
so I was how I felt in this.
So it's very much connected to it.
And I've never seen like a great other than ghost,
you know, like I've ever seen like any whoopi
Culper's performances. And so I was like,
wow, she is shockingly great in this movie.
And that was the hurdle.
That being said, I still think she was excellent in this film.
I still think Fantasia was excellent.
here and her musical numbers were strong and when she's like saying i am beautiful i'm like wow
that really got me thinking you know like that's a hard i'm not i've been told by many a therapist
to be like you should like learn to say a couple of nice things to yourself in the mirror
yeah affirmations one of the few things i still like i just don't do it is so hard for me to
get to a point to like say something that was cool yeah i thought that was like you should do that
do you do it i don't think i have a problem loving myself wow
Maybe you should reconsider that.
Yeah, see, that doesn't hurt me because I love me.
Have you met you, Roxy?
Yeah.
Do you know who you are?
Listen, I came from therapy today.
Maybe that's why I'm more in touch with my emotions today.
All right, I got to get Roxy out of here.
Guys, what do you think of this color purple movie?
I loved it.
That was one of my favorite.
Why is it called that?
Color purple?
I was hoping you would be able to answer that.
Well, there was a one moment.
movies now and I'm like
there's that one moment where we're walking through
and Taraji is like you know the colors the bright colors
whatever but other than that
but maybe that is just what it is about I think
when I I think in the other movie I remembered
understanding it better
but for some reason I kind of lost sight of why it's called the color
purple here
that's not really about the color purple
or is it and we totally missed the point
it's your favorite color there's something about whatever
the purple represented here
amongst the
I don't know
something deep
Purple's royal
do you want to look it up really quickly
I would like to know now
yeah how do I do it
my phone?
I'll do it
everyone be quiet
yeah stop talking
just like I did during the
yeah
why is the color purple
called the color purple
I'm starting to feel a little better
Greg.
That's because we talk about it.
Yeah, that usually does help.
And also because I'm beautiful.
Anyway, let's look this up.
You're a nice human being.
You is smart.
You is kind.
You is important.
All right.
What's it telling you?
It's telling me that I'm definitely on an ad right now that I got caught up in.
Okay.
The top first moment, Shug Avery.
Remember, God is neither here.
There's this different way.
I think it pissed God off.
And if we walk by the color.
Why does he keep logging out?
I'm sorry.
Oh, it says I'm on airplane mode.
I think it pissed God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and you don't notice it.
Oh, that's what Shug was saying.
Yeah.
Yeah.
She has never observed things that submission changes her life and hours.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
The things that are like staring you.
Yep, and she's talking about it.
God isn't this, God, is that.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Honestly, because you know I'm not religious,
the God stuff didn't impact me as much,
but...
I loved it.
Like, keeping, like, hope and faith did.
Yeah, no, I'm the same way.
I can watch...
I'm not religious, but I do get affected when I see
if it's, for a character,
if it's, like, there's a sense of community
or what it does for them,
if it makes them a better person in a movie or something like that.
Like, I can watch things like that,
and I can be very moved by
I'm not going to become like a god-fearing man or something,
but I will, I can still be very much moved.
You think you're ever going to give me a comedy?
We just watch Salfurn.
That's tough, too.
That's hilarious.
We watch...
We don't watch heavy films usually.
You make me watch this freaky's horror movies.
And this was the most scary horror movies.
I thought we were going to take a light break here.
I was like, here's another trolls.
And I was like, oh, my God, she's really sad.
No, I'm glad I watched.
It's obviously an amazing movie.
Definitely one of the best of 2023 for sure.
Absolutely.
Absolutely.
Guys, go watch Always Lola.
If you want to feel really good about yourself.
And subscribe.
And here, you got a hole in your sock.
I know.
And she still thinks she's beautiful.
Really true.
On the inside.

Welcome
to your shoutout, my friend
This first one?
It must have upgraded
Yeah, look out
It's time for a classic shoutout
You're gonna regret this
Oh, you're gonna hate this
So what we like to do is
Take your name
Figure out the acronym for it
And I'm just going to say what comes to mind.
L stands for Lick in my butthole.
Oh, yes, it does.
A stands for anal, retentive, which I'm sure you are not.
N stands for nice guy.
Yes, D stands for the D.
which I'm sure you're slinging all around T, O-W-N.
Oh, stands for the shape of your mouth when you're by my anus.
One of us had to get there.
And N stands for nuts, where I'm sure you've got huge ones, man.
Just like the craziest.
Crazy-est nuts, man.
D's nuts don't even come close.
Well, come this far.
M stands for.
Hey, martyr.
Oh, sure.
Because he would still be willing to die in the good reject name,
even if it meant us, you know, doing what we're doing right now.
Yes, exactly.
I stands for industrious, as I'm sure you are an enterprising and, you know,
a creative human being.
L stands for the quacious.
Is that even a word?
The world may never know.
There's just something Greg thought of.
Could be.
Maybe you arrived at it independently.
Is that the definition of lequacious?
The other elm stands for lugubrious.
What does it mean?
Comment if you're actually watching the shout-out with the definition so that I can commit it to memory.
He stands for.
eternal
because you will
forever be
laying down
with my face
my butt on your face
yes
and I think it only
would be appropriate
that R stands for rimming
as you know that will bring
No we had to come
full circle
in his shout out
So, you know, it's the only one play.
It could be anything, though.
Maybe you're just, you know, doing a rim shot on your drums there.
Maybe that's your version of rimming.
Or maybe it's just polishing up the rims on your car.
It doesn't have to be gross, man.
I just wanted to say, you know, we've done the first patron of the month shoutouts.
It's a kind of deal for people so many times.
It comes to the acronyms.
And I really just wanted to experiment here.
Make sure you were loyal.
enough because that's really what the L stands for in your name.
Oh, double dose of loyalty.
It's a test of triple loyalty.
He's got so many L's.
To see if you would still be will and upstate pledged in spite.
In spite of this shoutout, this is a test.
You just got Landon, Miller.
Look out.
I hope you're happy.
I hope you're satisfied.
I'm drafting an apology.
Dearest.
Landon Miller
Morrow Morty.
My dearest bro.
We're all friends here, right?
It's satire.
Thanks, Landon Miller.
You appreciate you.
