I Watched The Parent Trap for the First Time as an Adult
The credit song is going on too long.
Lindsay is so LITTLE.
Aww, her little fake accent.
Why in the world did she come all the way from England to this random camp?
And an EIGHT WEEK CAMP?
Is that a little boy at the girls’ camp?
The screen when they do the dual stuff is weird.
OH. MY. GAWD. It’s Janice from Friends.
How does anyone sleep that soundly for all those pranks to be successful? Such a suspension of disbelief there.
She... she saw the chocolate sauce falling... why would she walk into it?
I truly do not miss camp.
Isolation cabin?? That can’t be legal. But also strangely appropriate right now.
Why do they each have a light switch?
I wonder if she had to record scenes in entirety as one girl so they didn’t have to keep fussing with her nails, hair, and earrings. I could probably Google that.
That was no peanut butter on her Oreo.
Such a fake cough.
Ooh. A popsicle sounds good.
Hallie is not the brightest.
Who brings pictures to camp? Especially of a parent you’ve never met.
Think she got paid double for being on the credits twice?
Why in the world would she want to go 3,000 miles away from home? Just to meet mom?
Game boy!
She must have loved chopping that wig
She could just say she let the holes close up
Oh no no no. This is why I waited til I was 26 to get mine pierced
What parents do that though? Really.
I wonder how long it would stir me to realize someone is known forever was just... switched.
Ahh, the true test. Good teaching, Annie.
I want to go to London. Ugh.
This is a bomb soundtrack.
Yasssss Chessy. She knows what’s up
Awwwwww, Chessy 😭
She plays dumb so well, haha. Don’t adopt that ick ick.
Yes, let’s just start spewing French. That solves everything.
Though that is a smart kid. Meaning small Lindsay.
Ew. I hate blonde so much. Wasn’t she like 24 when this was filmed?
The music they played in 90s movies for sexy women is too funny. Sexy sax 🎷
Ew. So entitled. Never come for a bell being rung at you.
Break her nose please. Dennis Quaid, just BONK her with a fist.
She has evil eyebrows.
“Molars.”
PUSS?? ANNIE *YOU* need to BONK her with fists of fury.
Yes, just hand over the wine. I don’t care if she was raised on a vineyard. She’s 11.
“One sip too many.” 😂😂😂😂
I don’t think that’s how a collect call works either. That’s going to be a massive phone bill.
Busted by grandfather.
Just... why hide this from your children.
Well. Mama snapped.
“Dishy.”
Meredith is horrible. Sammy knows.
They can’t have known each other more than 8 weeks.
They’re engaged and they hadn’t met parents yet?
Yikes, with the drinking....
Glen Miller yaaaaaas.
Mama knows all and dad is lost
Ahhhh, Chessy and Martin. Cute.
All I can say when she’s on screen is UGH
Quick hangover. Eek.
I’m sorry, “Elizabeth James” is a generic name. Why would you just assume she’s one and the same? Just because she’s English?
Screw you, Meredith
Schnockered 😂 I didn’t get autocorrected, so it must be a real word
Even though I can’t stand Meredith, the boat scene feels very wrong since he’s in a relationship...
Yasss Martin and Chessy! Don’t think I don’t notice that saxophone
Realistically... what boy is going to follow you on a plane?
I would not want kids like them... little twerps
Yeah Meredith. Learn to knit. Could be a valuable skill. As is camping.
I hope mosquitoes and leeches get to her.
Ah. They get it from Elizabeth. Lil trickster.
Evian 😂 Even when my bougie self drinks Evian, I still called it water.
Poor lizard.
Evil step-mother trope. Gross.
Such bad CGI....
Trout is good, evil woman.
Why does she have sleeping pills?
She’s so gullible for someone who doesn’t trust the kids.
Quarantine must be getting to me. Dennis Quaid isn’t even attractive and I’d probably kiss him like that too.
Perfect mattress for this prank.
Surprise she’s not going anywhere with waves like that.
No sense of humor in this one.
Never ask a guy to choose you over his kids... dumb move, sis.
At least she returned the ring?
C’mon, they did you a favor, Dennis Quaid. She was awful.
Back to the terrible dual screen.
Collect wine? That’s interesting
Ohhhhhh it’s a plot device. To show how much she meant to him. That was for real cute though
Whose car is that??
Oh. Chessy is okay.
Put a dang cover on that pool. It is RAINING.
The soundtrack strikes again.
Aww, no kiss? Probably for the best. Going back with an ex and long distance suck separately. Can’t imagine trying both at once.
Little sneak.
That’s cute though. He followed her on the plane. Unrealistic. But cute.
How precious is that wedding?
Awwwww MARTIN AND CHESSY
