I don't have time for full timestamps right now but here's some highlights and thoughts:
-the glowing red eyes on the golden pig at the beginning. such a phil touch. although elliot may be helping out with some editing on shorts, the description of this vid doesn't mention anything and all of the editing touches make it feel very phil!
-i also enjoy phil's subtle rotation of things on the shelves in the background. shout out to the tiny white vase and (fake?) emf reader from spooky hotel video
-i find it interesting that he used the squid game outfit half of the video for the title. probably more relevant for clicks but 'british boy tries american halloween candy' would have a lovely nostalgic vibe
-phil disinfects the mouth piece on the blow up gun before blowing it up but puts the seemingly unpackaged masks on his face. please phil.
-"I don't really want to put a one star blower in my mouth if you know what I mean" followed by "my (now inflated) gun is a lot happier to see me" lmao
-disgusted that phil would eat candy corn marshmallows and take that as trying candy corn. absolutely not the same smh. nothing compares to a good, stale, several months old candy corn.
-phil thinking you really get such big boxes/packages of candy when you go trick or treating. no, phil, you get the mini halloween versions. although there was ONE house in my neighborhood as a kid that always gave out full size candy bars and everyone made sure to go there.
-the texture of swedish fish is in fact special and better than haribo, phil is correct.
-"(about australian red licorice) that makes me make almost demonitizable noises" phil is learning how to moan obscenely about food from dan, apparently
-Twizzlers are also best stale and fun to use as a straw. Phil did not get the full experience.
-"Do they put class A drugs in sweets?" yes, Phil, it's called sugar
-Cookies and Cream Hershey's good, standard Hershey's bad. Phil once again with the Correct candy opinions
-Laughing at Phil's choice of twinkie throwback being him saying "I've got a lot of cream in my mouth" and pointing out the quote in editing (also DITL Manchester
-Mildly offended Phil doesn't know what a tootsie roll is. He is however correct that they don't actually taste that great and are only good in my nostalgic childhood mind. The vanilla ones however are great, I would reccomend.
-Again, Phil not knowing what red hots are. Tragic that so many people in this world have not experienced the delicacy of warm applesauce with red hots.
-The key to Phil's heart is reese's. Same, Phil.
-"I doubt this is going to tickle my... grapes." That is not a better choice of word than pickle.
-For those curious, now and laters are like a tougher, milder version of a starburst.
-Laugh at the wording of "pucker packs" and face at the wank-y dip motion but no reaction at the "bit of a jaw work out" comment. Disappointed in this oversight by 2021 Phil.
-Please don't pour sour candy powder into your eyes.
-Red hots placed TRASH tier. brb unsubscribing
-I had a dream a few months ago where dnp moved to like a fancy rich suburb in the UK with nice views and a house with a yard and tree??
-I wonder when this was filmed since Phil plugs the minecraft short, which is now not the most recent/relevant one. Zero mention of the google thing so my guess is it's just something he did as like a side gig and doesn't have any sort of obligation to promo it.
-Nip is very barely visible, but it's a fair point that the material isn't great.
Ok that turned out way longer than I was planning. Enjoyed the vid, felt very quintessential Phil to me in a way.
