Im not sure how somebody found hd footage of the WHOLE season of total drama revenge of the island in hd when its not even on netflix or from total drama official youtube channel but both tdroti and tdwt was the only seasons on Netflix before until they removed it 4 years ago for reasons that idk about but the important thing is that total drama world tour has no 16:9 ratio Widescreen HD Footage besides the footage from the all stars trailer im not sure why netflix wont just put world tour and revenge of the island on there (more importantly world tour becuase roti is already in hd) but its needed very badly.
Netflix removes Total Drama seasons for many reasons. However, it's usually because the show's renewals are put on exhibition. This went for Total Drama : All Stars, but it came back with a new ending. World Tour and Revenge of The Island were most likely removed for something other than renewals. Sadly, in November 2020, ALL Total Drama seasons will be removed from Netflix as the renewals exhibition expires. They could possibly add all seasons back, including WT and ROTI at a later date, but that is yet to be seen.
The dueling voiceovers that weave throughout the Netflix movie Do Revenge encapsulate the clutter of director and co-writer Jennifer Kaytin Robinson's film. A self-conscious homage to teen movies from decades past, Do Revenge is chipper, colorful, and exhausting, with entertaining performances and occasional clever bits of dialogue buried under a lumbering plot. It's trying so hard to be fun that, despite a unique style, it ends up feeling a little like a chore.
Robinson, who created the short-lived cult-favorite MTV series Sweet/Vicious and wrote and directed the Netflix rom-com Someone Great, knows her teen movies, and she draws from some of the best, including Heathers, Mean Girls, and Cruel Intentions. However, Do Revenge is also a thoroughly modern movie aimed at least partially at a Gen-Z audience, with some awkward attempts at sounding hip and some muddled social commentary. It has an enticingly stylized aesthetic, with more visual flair than a typical Netflix production. It's nice to look at, even with the haphazard narrative.
Set at elite Miami private school Rose Hill, Do Revenge opens with narration from Drea Torres (Riverdale's Camila Mendes), setting up a class-warfare theme that never really pans out. Drea is a scholarship student whose apparent great shame is that her never-seen mother is a nurse, and she's spent the last three years of high school molding herself into the perfect popular girl so she can fit in with her wealthy peers. Just as she's riding high on recognition from Teen Vogue for her charity efforts, she's suddenly brought down by a naughty video leaked to social media. She blames her douchebag boyfriend Max (Austin Abrams), although he denies responsibility. So she punches him in the face.
That punch gets her put on probation and saddled with community service, while she's also ousted from her former friend group. All of this happens in a whirlwind before Do Revenge even introduces its second main character, fellow outsider Eleanor (Stranger Things' Maya Hawke). Eleanor is transferring to Rose Hill for her senior year, and she meets Drea at a summer tennis camp. They quickly bond over their shared disdain for the popular crowd, and Eleanor tells Drea her own tale of woe, about a girl who humiliated her several years ago when she first came out and who also happens to now attend Rose Hill.
Finally, nearly half an hour into the movie, Drea and Eleanor settle on the obvious scheme, a variation on the story from Alfred Hitchcock's Strangers on a Train: they'll trade revenge, with each taking down the other's nemesis. Drea will do her mandated community service in the school's farm club alongside Eleanor's enemy Carissa (Ava Capri), while Eleanor will ingratiate herself with Max and his friends. Somehow, they'll each figure out a way to take down the other person's target, and no one will suspect them since no one is aware that they know each other.
Mendes and Hawke have appealing chemistry, and the core friendship is easy to root for, even after the inevitable third-act twist. They spend too much time apart, though, and none of the other characters that they interact with are nearly as interesting. Both Drea and Eleanor get new love interests -- Drea with a fellow farm volunteer and Eleanor with Max's sister -- but the romantic storylines feel perfunctory and are both hastily resolved during the closing credits, essentially as an afterthought. Abrams makes Max so smarmy that it's easy to see why Drea would want to punch him in the face, but he's not an evil mastermind, and taking him down doesn't offer much satisfaction. Carissa is even less of a character, and she's dispatched rather quickly so the movie can focus on the complex mix of jealousy and resentment that Drea feels as Eleanor is drawn in by the popular crowd.
Do Revenge features explicit homages to iconic teen movies, such as Eleanor's teen-movie staple makeover montage, as well as a soundtrack stuffed with vintage alt-rock hits from the likes of Hole, Harvey Danger, and Meredith Brooks. It's at its most entertaining when Robinson is just riffing, and she creates a distinctive environment at Rose Hill, with its pastel-colored uniforms and offbeat social clubs. There are almost no adult characters onscreen, and that all-consuming world of teenage conflict and manipulation recalls Tayarisha Poe's far superior Selah and the Spades.
Do Revenge is refreshingly sex-positive and inclusive while also poking some fun at disingenuous wokeness, as when Max deflects from his scandals by founding the Cis Hetero Men Championing Female Identifying Students League. Yet Robinson doesn't have much to say about changing social values or generational differences, and Do Revenge isn't funny or shocking enough to make up for its uneven pacing and vague messaging. It's a series of catchphrases and stylish outfits that often feels like it's searching for a purpose.
Plot in 25 words or less: After being the victim of an explicit video gone viral, Drea looks to spend her senior year of high school taking revenge against the man and student body who wronged her.
There are several eras of teen movies in the last few decades. The '80s led to John Hughes movies, '90s female-led movies and 2000s more vulgar ones. Each has its classics such as Ferris Bueller, Clueless and Superbad. Lately, there haven't been a huge wave of generation-defining teenage movies. That's been more evident in shows like Stranger Things and Riverdale (ironically neither of these shows takes place in the current period.) What Jennifer Kaytin Robinson and co-writer Celeste Ballard did with Do Revenge was bring some of the most iconic scenes, lines or shots from the past and sprinkle them throughout their modern teenage film. With a subject so important to talk about with revenge porn and how the real victims are never given justice, they did a good job reinventing and renewing how special a good teen movie can be.
As the movie beings, Drea is the most beloved/popular girl at Rosehill Country Day High, dating the most popular and wealthy boy there, Max. In the first few minutes, her life changes as a romantic video sent to Max is distributed all over the student body, leaving her ashamed and violated. Drea teams up with new student, Eleanor, to seek revenge against Max and other students at Rosehill. Throughout the nearly 2-hour runtime, which is pretty long for a comedy/teen movie, nods to other movies are sprinkled in. Some are very on the nose, parodying Mean Girls and 10 Things I Hate About You, while you may need to Google others to remember. They are fun nods to what inspired the movie but can also make Do Revenge seem less original or authentic. The scene that irritated me the most was the 10 Things I Hate About You ripoff of Patrick and Kat's first date at the paint-balloon park in Seattle. Drea and her romantic interest, Russ, do pretty much the exact same thing at his warehouse. Do Revenge would've benefitted from adding jokes about how much they take from former teen movies.
The strongest part of Do Revenge is the young cast. Mendes and Hawke are great as the lead characters. They have good chemistry despite some rough dialogue and unfunny jokes. Abrams (mostly known as Ethan from Euphoria) keeps his momentum going after a great last two episodes in the HBO teen drama. He's Do Revenge's main villain. He does a good job playing the popular-rich teenage boy who believes Rosehill is his kingdom and that will translate to life after high school. Everybody does a good job playing their stereotyped roles. I only knew Abrams and Sofie Turner, who is in a couple scenes, going into this movie, and I was impressed with them doing a comedy.
Along with so many nods to previous movies, one area where Do Revenge lacks is in actual comedy itself. There are funny situations and scenes, but many of the jokes don't land. The actors try their hardest to hit those punchlines, but it doesn't produce the laughs of Mean Girls or Superbad. That doesn't mean this is an unfunny movie, but it's not as funny as it should be. Writing jokes is hard, and timing by the actors is just as important to making someone laugh. Whether it's a poor script or the actors not doing a great job with delivery, people will not be quoting Do Revenge in several years.
Do Revenge (while not replacing Superbad as the best teen comedy ever) isn't a bad movie. It's a fun watch despite its longer runtime. The actors are having a lot of fun filming this movie at expensive houses and schools in Miami. While it does take quite a bit from other teen movies and lacks a good amount of laugh-out-loud moments, there isn't a reason to say it's unwatchable. Certain scenes such as the senior dinner and final admissions party are really well shot and scripted. Party scenes are a long and hard experience to direct even if it's only for a few minutes. Robinson's directing is good in these moments, and it'll be fun to see what she and Ballard write next, whether they stay in the teen genre or move to something more mature. The first domino to fall in Do Revenge is something that happens very often in today's social media world. It's important to make a popular movie about it and bring it to a larger audience.
