Special thanks to my patrons
I gotta say, I love how that even though Ian is gifted with magic and Barley isn’t, he isn’t ever jealous of his powers or tries to take them for himself. Instead he helps his brother with his fantasy knowledge and I think we need more supporting characters like that.
exactly!! right from the start he just felt pure joy for Ian, supporting and even coaching him. first sign of their relationship being slightly different from most siblings, due to the loss of their dad and Barley filling that space
Fr like the perfect definition of brother
Why tf do i see you in almost every reaction to movie video i watch?
The director mentioned in the commentary, how Ian act like a well-adjusted kid because he's got both parental figures in his life, even leaning on Barley in the family photo, and Barley acts more like a kid losing a parent would act, struggling I mean, with the car and the tickets and the "extended gap year"
From Monsters University to this movie. The director's damn good with stories exemplifying platonic & brotherly love
This film was definitely the victim of unfortunate circumstances, coming out literally a few weeks before COVID hit and caused everything to shut down, which led to it underperforming at the box office. I don't think it's one of Pixar's best films or anything, but I thought it was rather underrated when I finally got around to seeing it, with all the great comedy and heart that you'd expect from one of these films
This movie kind of changed my life when I saw it. My older sister really is Barley and I am definitely Ian, though we do have both parents. Our parents accidentally created a rivalry between us where she loved me, but she saw that I was treated as the golden child, and I saw her as a screw up. When this movie came out, I had completely cut my sister out of my life going on 6 months because I couldn’t stand how “dumb” she was. I went to this movie prepared to see a father/son movie, but when I saw us reflected back at me, I broke down sobbing. These days my sister and I have never been closer, and now we are working on trying to heal together in our 30’s/40’s. Our parents are shocked, but grateful for the change.
I also saw my relationship with my sister in Ian and Barley. Difference being, I'm Barley. 😅
The way you explained your experience and relationship with your sister reminded me heavily of my sister and how she views me. We're not estranged, or anything like that, but she definitely thinks very little of me - has ever since we were young. She always makes it clear that, if something is going wrong in my life, it's my fault and that she has no empathy for me. (For context: I struggle heavily with depression, anxiety, self-motivation and self-worth. I don't have much in the way of support from friends or family, so when I stumble I fall.)
She's quick to point out my flaws if I present them in any way and she doesn't usually apologize for rude behavior. My parents (specifically my mother) have always treated her like the golden child and coddled her, and usually side with her whenever she and I get into an argument.
My point is, I'm happy that you and your sister were able to make up and grow closer because of this movie. I wish my sister had come to a similar conclusion when we watched it, but alas... I'm pretty sure her only take-away was that she related to big, strong, outgoing Barley while small, quiet Ian was like her weak, older sister... 😓
Man… as an oldest brother in a family that lost a parent… I love this movie
Glad you have this hug in the form of a movie, sorry for your loss, as a younger sibling thanks
@@salliejones6002 that was really kind, thank you. It’s a burden gladly born
The concept was great, and based in real life. The writer/director never met his dad. He passed while his mom was still pregnant with him. Only had his voice on a tape. Beautiful stuff. Onward was a great movie that got lost in the COVID pandemic. It came out, and then two weeks later the world shut down. And Disney just said "screw it" and put it on Disney+ instead -- but everyone was just watching the news and covering our fruit with hand sanitizer.
Technically, Scanlon was only 1 years old when his father died in an automobile crash, but still.
onward is my favorite pixar movie ever made. it touches something deep in my soul and mends my daddy issues lmao. it's kind of therapeutic to see two siblings who remind me so much of my own going through a situation that's so much like mine. i cry every time i watch it lmao
Ok relax not even top 10 Pixar movie
@@imperialspy805that's subjective. It's fine if it's in OP's top 10
@@sh_joy objectively there are 10 movies better than Onward
@@imperialspy805jesus christ, saw your other comments and its just about how you hate her for not watching the rocky movies lmao😹
There’s not a lot of really good modern depictions of that brotherly love type relationship. So often in literature brothers are pitted against each other and fathers take on the tyrannical stereotypes.
In this story they show love and anger and bitterness and forgiveness and sacrifice all in pursuit of the love and pride of the father. Which the father freely gives but the brothers had to go through the experience in order to freely accept.
It’s not a shock to me that John Krasinski, Chris Pratt, and Tom Holland were involved in telling a tale about the strength of good pure masculine love. The love of brothers, fathers, and sons.
the d&d honeymoon period is actually so nice. theres so much info to go through and so many different things to do.
Barley being the older/oldest sibling who has it the toughest but still has to hold it together for their younger sibling(s) really punches me in the guts. When Ian crossed the bottomless pit and the rope falls off of him, Barley is freaking out and terrified to the point of tears. He seems like the fun, goof-around older bro, which he IS, but underneath it all his top priority is Ian's safety and when that was in jeopardy without Ian's knowledge, Barley was horrified. And there was NOTHING he could've done if something went disastrously wrong. He had promised Ian the worst that could happen to him was that he fell, and the rope, and Barley, would catch him. Instead, the rope untied and Barley would not be able to save Ian if he fell.
That's how it must feel to be in charge of a youngster about to take a huge step in their life, like their first day of school/high school, going off to college, or moving away. It's the guardian's job to give the young adult the confidence to take the first step, but the whole time the guardian is absolutely petrified for them. And there's often not gonna be a way for the guardian to protect the young person in their care when something inevitably fails/goes wrong. That's family growing up together.
We need a whole video about your love of D&D! I would love to hear about your character and your favorite crazy campaign stories.
Yes 💯 we Need this ...
My brother is 15 years younger than me. My mom had to work a lot and my dad wasn't too involved in raising him, so I was basically co-parenting him until school. We really bonded later in life and became pracitcally best friends despite the age difference. We watched this movie together when I was pregnant, and after seeing the mom in the movie he told me "this is the kind of mom you're gonna be" and it was the best compliment I've ever gotten in my life.
This movie came out just before the pandemic and just got lost in the shuffle but it's my favorite pixar movie
honestly, as an older sister who lost a father to covid this movie touches too deep in my heart, it's easy one of the best pixar ever made
I'm so sorry for your loss
@@Owlsandoatmeal thank you so much 💕
@@majuhfranca Of course
I love this film. I have NO idea why it's not more popular! The world-building is well thought out, the bonding totally believable and mom is a badass. What more do you want?
To me such an underrated movie 😊😊😊it just makes feel so emotional and so touched by how even though one of your parents isn’t there anymore you still have your older siblings or siblings in your life who are always there for you and always takes care of you and that’s what Barley was doing for Ian. Both brothers were great and really love the fantasy side of the story 💖💖💖thanks for the reaction 😊😊😉😉
I love that Wilmer Valderrama made a cameo in the film (5:20 onwards) - and Chris Pratt and Tom Holland as the brothers are awesome - need to watch this again!
This film has been a very personal and emotional for me. As someone who is very distant to my father even though we lived in the same house for two-thirds of my life. I miss him and I missed the point where we could have been closer.
D&D is literally the most fun thing you can do with your time. Hardest part is wrangling friends and schedules. Then it's FUN FUN FUN!!
final boss is always scheduling
If you're okay with text, Discord channels and play by post games can work surprisingly well. Especially if you use Tupperbox to create proxy bots for your characters.
This was the last movie I saw in theaters before covid hit. I remember this movie making me more emotional than I had anticipated. Glad you enjoyed it too!
Onward is one of my favorite Pixar movies ever :)
This is absolutely my favorite Disney movie of all time. It went right to the top from the first time I watched it - I have absolutely no complains about it. the voices, the story, everything was fantastic.
Big Hero 6 is the only other one that comes close for me.
I'm just hoping that if there's a sequel we will see a group dedicated to finding a rehabilitation area for the unicorns, the Pegasi and the unicorn-pegasi who have a name but I forget what it is. A place where there's enough food for all of them that they don't have to go searching through rubbish bins to find, a place where someone can groom them and mend their wings and horns so they won't be so dirty, a place where they can roam and fly freely
As a fellow D&D nerd and DM, I am so very for this. This film is amazing. Keep playing! I agree with the people who want to hear about your character and campaign! Give us the info!!!
I wish that I had that kinda connection with my brothers growing up. But they are a lot older than me and I always felt left behind. My mom was always there for me though. Going out of her way even after a long work day to do things for me, and I will always be grateful for that.
When my sister took me to see it in the movie theater she hold my hand throughout the whole movie because the movie was released on my dad's 7th death anniversary and I couldn't stop crying because it made me remember the times I had with him but it also reminded me that I wasn't able to say goodbye to him before he died.
I came so close to crying when I saw this in theaters with my nephew. A little before seeing it, my little sister (not his mom) told me that I was a key part in why she grew into the person she is. She said I came through for her when our parents couldn’t and she couldn’t imagine a life with a different big brother.
9:21 Not the WAND. Omg I cant be the only one who thought she just took a piece of wood and called it a wand and not that theres an ACTUAL wand in that thing lmAOO
One of us, one of us. I finally got to start playing my first game this year. And currently DnD lets plays dominate our tv watching as a family.
Literally just watched this for the first time with my brother. What a movie my god 😭
FINALLY someone reacting to this goddamn movie! I respect you!
It's such a good movie, I can't believe how ignored it is by everyone! 😭
I personally love this movie because my brother and I went through a lot of good and bad things but we never gave up on each other in any circumstance.
This was probably the Disney movie that made me cry the most, along with Up. Inside Out was pretty emotional too, but now that I'm older I can handle it. I think the people need to pay more attention to the GOOD Disney movies like Onward, because sometimes Disney's content is dumb or filled with some sort of political message that people aren't ready for. However, I like a lot of the "dumb" cartoons and sitcoms from Disney Channel and Disney Junior/Playhouse. Jungle Junction, Fish Hooks, and Kiff need more love too!
I'm glad you enjoyed the movie, Ange! It's one of my favorite Pixar movies, it's so sweet and meaningful
welcome to the beautiful whirpool that is DnD! i hope you enjoy your journey through it as much as i have (DnD is my all time favorite hobby! i play and DM it is awesome i wish i could do it more!)
this movie is underrated,i love this movie sm
The little comics of the Editor/DM are so funny and relatable
This movie is right up your street with the brotherly bond, magic elements and overall story+ Iain's Arch (Tom Hollands character)
As a D&D nerd (and Critical Role fan waiting for Vox Machina season 2 reactions): ONE OF US, ONE OF US! GOOBLE GOBBLE GOOBLE GOBBLE!
such a fantastic movie, one of my favorite pixar movies, Rattatoile is my favorite and i think this is my third favorite pixar film EVER. toy story being second ofc.
This movie is one of two pixar movies that has ever made me cry. My biological dad passed away the year prior to the movies release and I watched this movie with my mom. even watching this commentary video, with all the funny input from Angelina, i cried a little bit
8:37 AUGHHH The way you can TELL what Ian and Barley's dad would've been doing if his whole body had returned instead of just his legs! Here, he would've been hugging Ian or squeezing his hand.
This movie is definitely an underrated gem, I loved it so much when it came out, I remember crying like two or three times throughout it (firstly when Barley sacrificed Gweniver, because my own first car which I named and grew attached to broke down not too long ago at the time, right after dutifully bringing me home safe one last time)
This movie is very special for me. My second youngest sibling, his father, isn't really around. He moved down south for his job, and my brother hasn't seen him since. I do all the dad stuff with him as a result, so he doesn't miss out. We've all had issues in my family with our father figures, and I don't want him to have it as bad. At the end of the day, though, I am his lame, dorky older brother. Thankfully, he's still young enough that I'm not too lame to hang out with, lol.
I've always found the implications of a humanoid dating a centaur to be rather alarming. Her organs would be pulped 🤢
I don't have words for how satisfying it was to see a Disney protagonist with my name
I really love this movie, and barley!! He is the Best, he was always saw before his brother ❤
I love this movie but it came out in theaters RIGHT when Covid got really bad so It really wasn’t seen by most people, it got forgotten in the chaos.
Ahh this is such an underrated movie I cried so much 😂😂
Im just so happy to find out im not overly emotional for getting choked up at the end of this movie. When this movie came out a cpl years ago I watched it with my gf at the time and she thought there was something wrong with me bc i got emotional at the end of the movie. Mind you my brother and i lost our father at a young age so this one especially hit home. Thank you Angelina 😊❤
My personal favourite RPG system is the 2D20 system from Modiphius. I run their WW2 Call of Cthulhu game, Achtung! Cthulhu, and it's a lot of fun.
That's awesome. I haven't played D&D in like 5 years due to my profession. Hopefully that will be changing by next year, but will see.
9:17 - smug Hermione accent: Uhm, actually, it's "'leviosa-aa", not "leviosa".
Snape, from the shadows: Ten points from Grrrrrryffindorr!
D&D is awesome. My first character was a Ranger/Rouge since then i'v'e played a Moon Druid and a Paladin/Warlock all of whom were Dwarves🥰 Imagine if they remade the 1983 movie Krull as an animated movie 🤔 that would be fun 😁
5:38 I didn't notice it the first couple of times I saw the movie, but when a TH-cam short pointed it out, I thought it was really sweet- In this scene while Ian is walking up the stairs to school, there are two girls off to the left. One of them uses ASL to communicate, and she signs to her friend that Ian is cute as she looks shyly at him from a distance.
Me and my family love playing d&d so this movie was a blessing! I would love to hear about your d&d campaigns too! I don't know what your future movie plans are but I would definitely recommend reacting to Nimona.
Angela you know why I love this movie , cause I always want a brother but all I got are sisters who always locks their door at my face
There is actually a theory that magic was real long ago, but technological advances on Earth and the presence of technology made magic fade away into myth and legend
Seeing this video and comments love this movie makes me so happy. This was the last movie i saw in theaters before covid hit and I loved it so much, but I saw so many ppl online ripping this movie to shreds and saying that it's bland and the worst pixar movie. I'm glad to see so many people here love this movie too :')
Great reaction! What a good movie, really hits me every time!
yesss this was such an amazing underrated movie
I have the same ailment where all I want to do is play dungeons and dragons
The director based this on his life with his older brother and mom, and the town is based on his hometown, Clawson Michigan.
I actually laughed out loud at work when you said “back up my ass”💀
Welcome to the DnD club, been a member for years and am glad too hear new people are trying it out.
“BACKUP, MY ASS” I’M ROLLING ON THE FLOOR 😂😂😂😂😂
This movie and Toy story 4 is when 3d animation really started improving in pixar movies
Always make sure to do what the DM does not expect to keep them on their toes.
ANGELINA loves from H-Town and I'm new subscriber and I love the podcast
Being playing with the same D&D group since 1982. Our longest game went for 11 years.
You earned your thumbs up by the end of your intro!😀 TTRPGs can be a bit of an obsession. Robin Williams once said that D&D was harder to quit than cocaine.
If you want to feed the obsession while doing your job, you could try reacting to an actual-play D&D game. Critical Role is an obvious choice, but there's just SO MUCH of it, so I'd suggest some one-shots or limited series. From CR's world of Tal'dorei, Exandria Unlimited: Calamity is AMAZING, and takes place in the setting's distant past, so no spoilers. I'd also REALLY recommend Dimension 20 (the first season is a setting a lot like Onward).
I wonder if you'd ever get around to watching Speed Racer. I like your videos, can't wait to see more reactions. Keep up the good content!
I saw this at my local drive in. Was cute. Love it
I like onward it was good to see their bond together
No way, I’m doing D&D too and will be DM in a campaign next month
Welcome! I to was taken over by dungeons and dragons… I spent 3 years catching up on critical role just to feed the fix ❤
I love onwards it my most favourite pixar movie ❤
She just stepped away fröm the film tö get her Harry pötter stick and dident even pause!
Tom Holland and Chris Pratt make great siblings lol
😂bro she came in sight the wand case and I’m looking at that like “wow what a wand a stick” then I looked at it more and thought table leg
Ange keeps watching all these sad/cute movies and i dont have enough tissues for the secondhand emotions I am getting from the reactions
omgggg yessss my fav and most underated movie by my fav reactor
Never rode in a van?! Well I tell you what... I've got some candy... 🥸
In this alternate universe, Spiderman and Starlord are elf brothers searching to revive their dead father....
We all need a Barley in our lifes 💙
Rees and Angelina should do a reactors d&d game with other reactors to play while Rees DMs!
Thank goodness I am not an only child, I love movies about sibling bonds :))
my favorite reaction 🤣
i love this movie and i don't understand why people hate it and see it as an inferior Pixar movie
This movie did not get the exposure it deserved because it came out in theaters right at the point that covid closed down all the theaters.
5:29 the audacity Angelina has to change Sharky with toothless
Billy omggggg
I have a twin brother and this movie broke me...
Underrated
I'm still disappointed that the hug in the ending was spoiled in the trailer.
WOOOOOOO I LOVE DND, I now love you more
