Victoria Coats

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Purdue chapter.
  1. Is that even the same dad? Did I misremember? Why does he suddenly have hair??????
  2. I FEEL LIKE THATS NOT EVEN THE SAME PALACE.
  3. Oh, Emily cut her hair (I feel like its sad that I noticed that).
  4. It’s not even fair how great Emily’s skin is. She better enjoy it while it lasts. UGH.
  5. Are Rudy and Mrs. Averill gonna be a thing??
  6. I FEEL LIKE THE MOM HAS HAD BOTOX AND IT HONESTLY DISTRACTS ME. 
  7. Why is Amber so comfortable here? Low-key she almost destroyed the country.
  8. AMBER’S DAD HAS COMMON SENSE. THERE IS NO WAY HE’D ACT THAT WAY WITH THE QUEEN. 
  9. Did the dad have that thick of an accent in the first movie????
  10. Ha. Amber just made a pun. 
  11. Aw the prince picked Amber up when they hugged. 
  12. SHE’S STILL WEARING SNEAKERS.
  13. HA THE WEDDING PLANNER LOOKS LIKE A KNOCK OFF CHRIS BROWN IN A TOUPE.
  14. AMBER, LOOK PEOPLE IN THE EYE WHEN YOU TALK TO THEM. I GET YOU’RE DISTRACTED BY RICHARD BUT GOODNESS GRACIOUS.
  15. It’s interesting because I feel like the same chemistry that Amber and Richard had in the first movie isn’t really there. If anything they seem like comfortable friends?? I mean isn’t that what most relationships grow into anyways?
  16. I feel like Richard’s not in love with Amber. 
  17. Richard’s kind of cold to her. Like where are the loving smiles? The playful smirks?
  18. WHY ISN’T RICHARD LETTING AMBER KNOW MORE ABOUT POLITICS?
  19. When she wakes up, she’s clearly in make up. They didn’t even try to make it look like she wasn’t. Come on. If I did that my face would be a pimply mess by the next morning.
  20. I’m kind of surprised by Amber’s character. It’s just in iZombie, the actor the plays the, you know, zombie, is waaaaaaay different. 
  21. This is weird, but I bet her wedding planner has stinky breath. He just looks like he does.
  22. JENNIFER LOPEZ IS A MUCH BETTER WEDDING PLANNER THAN THIS GUY.
  23. I’m sorry, but if I were the bride, THERE WOULD BE NO WAY I would let someone have this much control over my wedding. I. Am. Way. Too. Opinionated.
  24. Read the room bro, she is clearly not into the way you’re pitching this wedding. 
  25. I AM GETTING WAY TOO MANY CREEPY VIBES OF THE WEDDING PLANNER EWWWW LOL. I bet he breathes too loudly too. 
  26. I wonder if this is what it was like for Megan Markle. 
  27. SAHIL, HONEY, THE BRIDE IS ALWAYS RIGHT. 
  28. Ohhhhh, I see. I see what the lesson of this movie’s gonna be.
  29. Mrs. Averill, you’re being low-key annoying. 
  30. I FEEL LIKE AMBER’S GUY BEST FRIEND CAN’T ACT. 
  31. Amber’s body guard is trying to be like Jo from the Princess Diaries. 
  32. Man, it would be super, super hard to be a royal. 
  33. HA HIS COUSIN SIMON IS BACK.
  34. Oof, King Richard is a tad condescending.
  35. I feel like that cook was cutting the onions wrong. 
  36. Why is the chef and the kitchen staff so cold? Rude. 
  37. Richard is confiding more in his mom than he is in Amber. 
  38. Wow, Richard really looks dead inside. 
  39. What’s up with Richard’s side burns? 
  40. I wonder if they always have to be dressed up. Can they lounge around the palace????
  41. Simon really let himself go. WHAT IS WITH THE DRAMATIC CLOSE UPS. I’M DYING. 
  42. I want to pin Simon’s bangs back with a bobby pin.
  43. OOF. HER FIRST WEDDING DRESS IS A BIG OOF. 
  44. SAHIL YOU WILL NEVER GLIDE BETTER THAN MICHAEL CAINE IN MISS CONGENIALITY. 
  45. The locket that Rudy gave Amber, with the mom, was sweet.
  46. What a weird Aldovian, Christmas story that Emily’s play is based on. 
  47. Tom Quill…The name reminds me too much of Tom Riddle. 
  48. Geez, I hope Tom Quill doesn’t just like Emily because she’s a princess.
  49. Is it really necessary to CHAIN up the auditorium after the school no longer has funding???
  50. Is Lord Leopold evil or something??
  51. SOMEONE IS LAUNDERING MONEY AREN’T THEY??
  52. Lord Leopold is a butt kisser. 
  53. It’s kind of weird that the royal family lives so luxuriously with champaign everything night and whatnot while people are out there suffering. 
  54. Amber in the tree picking scene is literally me. 
  55. WHY IS MRS. AVERILL SO SMUG.
  56. They could low key really get hurt tobogganing the way they are. 
  57. I need a red coat like Emily’s. 
  58. Aw, I always thought it was sweet that her dad called her Peanut. That’d be a cute dog name too. 
  59. TAKE THE STICK OUT YOUR BUTT, CHEF. 
  60. Why are there so many subplots?
  61. Why is Simon so nasty after he knows he messed up.
  62. The person who wrote the not “festive” card has a point.
  63. Amber really tried to kill her friends with that arrow. 
  64. Guys, I don’t think I can finish this movie. 
  65. Okay guys, I skipped ahead.
  66. SIMON WAS GOOD IN THE END.
