 Bro, do you want this or not? Two years ago, Netflix released a movie called Tall Girl. It was about the trials and tribulations of being a tall girl and trying to find love. I decided that it was my duty to speak on it. And now it's two years later and they've released Tall Girl 2. And for the record, I'm 5'8". I'm not that tall. I'm a bit above average height and probably a little bit more above average height for Asian females. And so much has changed since my first Tall Girl video two years ago. I have been in multiple relationships so I know all the trials and tribulations of a tall girl going through romance. I've always had a crush on her. But society has deemed it socially unacceptable for a tall girl to do it. By the way, I just have to reference this again. She's like 6'1". I would never bully anyone for their insecurities but I just don't understand making an entire movie about it. And this whole thing of it's socially unacceptable and something that society deems as like a taboo thing to date someone shorter than you. That's a very odd sweatshirt. And oddly enough, I feel like it wouldn't be in dress code. Even though it's a hoodie, it's weirdly exposing. And ugly. Oh no. Hi. Oh no, networks. They're doing it again. They are doing it again. They have had so many movies, especially romantic teen movies where they make the second lead in the second movie mixed or some sort of person of color, like racially ambiguous sometimes, just to make sure that the lead does not end up with them at the end. And it's becoming a pattern. It's becoming an issue because they did it with To All The Boys I Love Before and they did it with The Kissing Booth. And I'm sure they're going to do it with a lot of other things. I'm scared for my life, like actually. Because like once is like, okay. Twice. I'm scared. Three times. The killer is escaping and the killer is the Netflix producers because they just keep doing this. Like why do they think this formula is what's making people watch these movies? The formula is that they're bad. Keep doing it though. And what would you say to people who don't think that being tall is a real problem? Why is this like an interview? I don't even know what I would say to that. I would actually be like, go fuck off. Like get the fuck out of here. Like imagine if she was like, what if this audition lady goes, what do you say to people that say that being tall isn't a real issue? And what if, what if Jodi came out of nowhere and just said, what do you say to people that say that being Asian is not a real issue? You tell me that. Doesn't make all the bad things that have happened to me every day in my entire life any less real. Performing has always been my dream, but I didn't think I could do it until now. Okay. What a weird, stupid question. Debt, like honestly, like that has nothing to do with the audition. Like it has nothing to do. Like we're not signing up to be Miss Universe. And if we were, she would be a shoe-in because she's so freaking tall. And this question should have been a prompt in the first movie. This question should have been an entire prompt in the first movie. I don't know why it's just coming back to here. And I don't like it that she answers it so well because I feel like it would have been a better prompt to give her in the first movie because she was so like, so woe was me about everything. So it makes no sense to give it to her now in the second movie when she's got the boyfriend, she's got friends, she's popular, everyone likes her and she's finally doing something that she's always wanted to do but couldn't because of her height. Why are we asking that now, Neata lady? Why are we asking that now? It doesn't matter. And why do people like this speech so much? You think you can actually pull this off? If someone asked me what intrusive thoughts are, I'm showing them this scene because that's what intrusive thoughts are. They have a little evil giggle to them. They have a little evil villain laugh. They have a Joker laugh. I'm the Joker. That's what my intrusive thoughts sound like. My intrusive thoughts are not just me talking. It's me talking in a Joker impression. You think you can pull this off? You'll never survive. Oh, that's like making me fucking tear up. It's kind of hard to do. Giving prompts to Jared Leto on this day. Thank you for your service. I'm confused. I'm very confused by the zipper open shoulder, the zipper peekaboo shoulder. I just feel like I'm all for showing off your shoulders. I think that's everything, but I don't think a zipper peekaboo shoulder is the way to go. It looks like a vagina on her shoulder and he looks like a little hoodie. They should have recasted him as little hoodie and no one would have noticed. No one would have noticed if they recasted Dunk as little hoodie. And that she should be Addison Rae. I think they should have recasted the main couple as little hoodie and Addison Rae and it still should have been a storyline of her being tall, but with Addison Rae, even though Addison Rae is like a very average height, she gives five, six energy for sure. And I would like the whole movie to continue on with her complaining about being tall or accepting her tallness while not being tall at all. Because that's kind of like me watching this movie. That's exactly what I'm doing. I'm bullying other people for being tall, accepting my own tallness while not being tall at all. It's very complex to me. You must have something better to do than sit around and wait for me. Yeah, I do. So not only is he short, he's also codependent. Short men always suck in the life out of you. That's actually so real. That's the realest thing about tall girl. Short men do suck the life out of you. But what's funny in that in real life, it's not funny. It's just a fact. It's yeah, it's not funny at all. Stupid. Me when my intrusive thoughts come out. Um, she's from Dance Mom, so she's actually very tall in real life. And I think most of the trauma she got from being tall is freaking from Abby Lee Miller. So maybe this should not be a movie. It should be a documentary. And it should be throwing Abby Lee Miller back into jail. Because there won't be a four month anniversary. Jodi? Jodi. I wish tall girl 2 was actually a musical. I wish tall girl 2 was actually a musical because that would have been a great scene if it broke out into a song. And this is why I need to be on the writer's team. Because I feel like I'm creating something that has a lot more umph and a lot more character. Because right now I don't remember any of the characters from the last movie. I don't remember the other plot lines. I don't remember that guy kissing her. And I don't really care about their relationship issues. I want to see her getting made fun of or being tall again. How did I get so lucky? You know when people talk about icks, that was an ick. Like if I ever saw a man do that to me, like that would actually be a- I would actually break up. Why would the star of the spring musical have any time for little old dunks anymore? Am I a burden to you? Because that's what it feels like. This is very icky. Like it's actually so icky because like, you know what maybe maybe tall girls do have issues because why have all x's acted like that? Am I a burden to you? No, I have a life and you don't. Like it's actually as simple as that. I have a life and I have things that I need to get done and you don't. Maybe if you built up your own life, you wouldn't feel like a burden to mine. Exactly, exactly. Like maybe it's a tall girl struggle or maybe it's just a girl struggle. Like he committed to his life to being her bitch. He likes being submissive to her and just doing what she says. And now he's mad that she's mispopular and living her life. I've actually lost my appetite so I'm gonna go. That actually is quite rude. Like I know I was bagging on him but it actually is so freaking rude to just like be sitting there and be like yeah I'm gonna leave. Like yeah I know you put a lot of effort into this and I know you lit each of these candles individually but like I'm gonna dip. I could see how he could feel a little underappreciated because you didn't even have like any sort of like things for like this whole thing. Like she could have been like thanks for this but like I have to go. Like it's an emergency. Like my dog died again. Great, great. That was a mess. That was actually a mess. You would make a horrible therapist. Yeah it was pretty bad. Stig is becoming my favorite character. He just caused that and that was great. His mom died. I'm calling it. His mom freaking died or they have to send Stig back to Sweden. I think I kind of blew my chance at being friends with you too. Hey did you jerk? Of course not Dunkers I love you. I'm kind of loving the donkey Stig friendship back because they're kind of cute. Like I kind of liked them in the first one when they rode bikes together. It was kind of cute. That's actually okay. Like I'm actually head canoning that. I am head canoning that romantic story that I know is fully based off of my love for fan fiction when I was younger and this is where it's stemming from. Like that's the root of it. Foreign exchange student comes in. You're an only child and you're only, you're a boy and you're an only child and then a foreign exchange student comes in and you guys fall in love and you hate them at first because this is my house and my mom decided to take in a foreign exchange student without letting me know. And he's weird and he doesn't respect my space. And then I make out with him and it's like a fan fiction come to life for real. Good one. That was a really good one. Thank you. Yeah. You, you were overweight? Oh yeah, way over. Got the weight off eventually but I still felt the same way inside. For me, it's movie theaters. I have had so much stuff thrown at my head because I'm blocking the screen. What is this? They're like the PTSD from movie theaters. Like she is like, like I, okay. To me, I don't think they're comparable because first of all, everyone gets bullied in middle school. This is not me validating his experience but it is very weird to be like, oh yeah, we experienced the same thing because being tall and being overweight are too, they're treated completely different in society. Like completely different. Like being discriminated based on height is not a real thing. Like, but being discriminated based on your weight is like very much a thing. Like it is very much a thing that exists that like people do all the time. So I feel like it's kind of insulting to compare the two. Situations because it's not the same. Because being tall and skinny is literally the beauty standard. Like obviously just because something is the beauty standard doesn't mean that you can't be made fun of for it. I could literally make fun of anyone for anything. Like I can make fun of you for having a cute little tiny petite nose. Like I could find a way to make fun of that. Like you guys can make fun of me for having long hair or soft supple skin or a tiny, tiny face. Like you guys could make fun of me for that if you wanted to. Like or my volumptuous lips and my big bottom. Like you guys can make fun of me for that. Like you can literally, like I know I, you can be made fun of for things that are in the beauty standard. I've experienced it my whole life. I like, I get it. She just sounds ridiculous talking to people. Like people used to throw popcorn at my head. Well then swapped down, scrunched down or sit in the back row. Like give me a break. Like actually give me a break. The examples that they're using in this movie just don't, they don't hit hard. Like they're trying to make them to be. And it's frustrating that they're comparing it to being overweight because in society those are treated completely different and it's actually insulting. Okay La La Land dancing under the moonlight. It's very cute. The lighting is horrible though. I hate bright lighting behind them like that. Like it actually makes me so frustrated because I feel like it looks so bad. Like it's just so distracting in my opinion and I hate it. And I wish they sucked to green tones instead of this weird pink tone. If you're not moved by singing cats you have no soul. They are becoming my favorite characters because they're actually having a personality. She's having troubles with her designer vagina shirts and he's has stage fright. Main couple. Main couple let's go. Let's go. They're kind of cute and I'm very much into Stig. Like he's actually becoming so much more charming than he was in the last movie. It was our entire relationship just some big joke. I make you smoothies every day Jody. I stay on crates for you Jody. You're a monster. I know. I know. I'm the worst. That was funny. That was a good scene. I like that. I like Sabrina Carpenter. I think she did a really good job. I make smoothies for you. That's like that's funny. I liked her delivery in that. I feel like last movie I couldn't really see what type of character she was and now I feel like she's giving me a little bit of like haily dumpy from Modern Family and I really like that type of character for her but it also has that kind of throwback to her character in Girl Meets World where it was kind of like this like Sam Puckett-esque character. That was a really good scene. I'll give the movie props where it deserves props and I thought that was funny. So I wish Harper and Stig should get together. Yeah. Yeah. That's boring. Boo. That's actually so boring. That's so actually so boring that he's like fine. You should get back. You should get back with them. Like that's actually so stupid. Like fight for your woman and be a homewrecker. This kind of reminds me of Glee. Just because everyone is getting with everyone. Like that everybody is ran through on this show and everyone is getting with everyone. That matter is going to want anything to do with me. So I just I hope she jumps out of the car and that'd be kind of funny. Reggie, what's happening? She's having a panic attack. This is what I got from the panic attack. I'm so sorry that I'm the screwed up daughter. I don't know. Stop that. You're perfect as you are. I'm kind of liking this movie. I don't know. I feel like it's a wonderful like I don't know. We're seeing all these characters go through like what it means to fail to them in their own ways. You have Jody who's scared about, you know, failing this play and everyone watching her fail. You have Frida and her failing with her fashion design. You have Stig failing with, you know, musical. How he never he never manages to book and all like he never manages to get casted. And he's scared of singing. You have Donkelman and the sister who are worried about failing by getting back with their exes. And I feel like and you have Harper, the sister who's scared about her interview and failing her interview. I feel like this is all like good, like good. This is like a good cohesive story. And it's kind of like these multiple paths of failure. I think it's kind of cute. Nice. Bring back tall girl. Bring back the tall girl. I miss her. She's kind of in like a green goblin era. That's a neat trick you got there. Norman's on sabbatical. Hanny. Breathe. No one. Okay. Out of every makeup artist on set, they didn't decide to blend her eyeshadow. There are so many makeup artists. It's like you didn't decide to blend her eyeshadow. You could have done so many, you've done so many different things and you couldn't do that. Like that's actually so annoying. Like I hate it when I'm watching stuff and they purposely decide to be bad. It's like, and I hate it when people are like, it's just trying to be realistic. Like her hair looks bad because it's like not every teenager can look popper all the time. It's like I'm watching a movie. Don't distract me with ugliness. Don't be ugly and distract me. Blend the eyeshadow. Like it's a distract, it's distracting. It's not realistic. Blend that bright blue eyeshadow. It's fine. It's actually fine. And talk with and walk with. And walk with. Her being on stage and being taller than everyone else is actually the best because it makes her stand out so much more. I want them on euphoria. I want them in Lexi's play. I can do this. I'm good enough to do this. Okay, but that's actually really cute because like truly the only way that you can silence an inner critic is by showing yourself compassion and by continuing to practice self-compassion daily. And I ever told you I was into photography is because I thought it sounded cool. I mean this, this could be your thing. I'm so embarrassed if someone said that to me. Like I showed them I could do something. And they're like, this could be your thing. Like you literally do nothing else. Like this could be it. Like I don't really know what I want to do with my life. But I know I want you in it. Yes. I love you, Tony. Oh my god. And you're not saying it back. Which is. Oh, he's actually such a piece of shit. We need more movies where it shows that she's not saying it back. I love you too. More representation of people not saying they love someone back when they tell them for the first time. You're so sweet. She just doesn't talk to them. You're so sweet. You're so sweet. Me when I go to my own party and just don't talk to anyone. Okay, the movie's over. And I'm going to say this. This video is sponsored by ExpressVPN.

Thank you ExpressVPN for sponsoring today's video. This is actually a very cute movie. I think it deals with a little bit more serious topics or like, I don't know. Why is this series is because, first of all, I'm a 19 year old. I'm a 19 year old girl watching this. Of course it would seem like a very stupid, like cheesy movie to me and it's like kind of seems like a PSA for anxiety. But I feel like if younger audiences are watching this and they're enjoying it and they're consuming it, I think it can actually be a really cute message. I think Tall Girl 2, and I'm gonna say this and this might be me just reading too much into it, but I think it has become a victim of the grown ass adults and grown ass freaking men watch a movie made for literal children and then get mad that it's not a prime Oscar contender. Like that's what I'm getting from, like the kind of circulation around this movie. Like yeah, I get it's kind of a joke, but this movie is like kind of cute and it's not the worst thing I've ever seen and it kind of has a cute message and it kind of deals with topics that I feel like is great if young people are watching. Granted, it all started because she thought that she was like actually oppressed for being Tall, but we got somewhere to where the second movie actually had something that I think was positive and I think that's great and I think it's like cute and it's like romantic and it's like, you know, because in my opinion, as long as it's not harmful and as long as it's not spreading harmful information, which I think the first movie did kind of spread harmful information and kind of did spread a harmful narrative that being Tall was like super, like it was like a super big issue dealt with in society and kind of very much was tone deaf. I think that the first movie definitely had that. So I think that if it's like made for young people and it's not spreading harmful misinformation or harmful narratives, I think it's fine. This is not a perfect movie. It has its own issues, but at the end of the day, it's a PG movie that's not made for me and I say sleigh. If it's a sleigh or nay, I give it a sleigh. Honestly, honestly.
