this is the exact same "did its job too good so it was removed" bit they talk about in an anime called oshi no ko, seems harmless here but really puts into perspective how someone's or a team of people's work can just be removed if it doesnt fit a higher ups' idea of something
@@thelily3776 The directors must have wanted her overbearing and controlling nature to be revealed later in the film. Likely for impression’s sake. That’s what I gathered.
I love how shes so stiff with the staff but so encouraging and warm with her daughter even as shes still working towards her perfect vision of this photo, theres a reason Mei is as happy as she is when shes younger, her mums controlling nature didnt mean she was harsh with her daughter until they started clashing
That's generally how controlling behavior works in families... The kids don't notice it till they see different families or they start maturing and realize they're still being treated like a child
the way ming screams trying to open that blanket made me laugh in the way the dad teleported edit: thanks for loving my comment! and thanks for 4k likes!!!!!!
I mean... it was still terrible. Her daughter was perfect because she dressed her and trained her to be her standard of perfect. She wasnt saying her daughter was perfect, she was essentially saying that she herself did a perfect job with her daughter. Her daughter is just an extension of her own efforts at that point.
@@KABLAMMATS Reading it too much? It is literally the plot of the movie. This is a deleted scene not a short. The point of the scene is to further show the toxicity of Mei's relationship with her mom just like in the movie with the scene where Mei has to give up her social life to please her mom by working with her. It isnt reading into it when it is the actual heart of the movie's conflict.
Not… really? The point of the scene (Beyond being funny) would be to show that Ming is a woman with a very specific view of how things should be. She isn’t toxic towards Mei-Mei, at the least not intentionally. Heck, half the time she is right… She just wants the best for her daughter, even if it does smother her.
the amount of times ive watched this is unhealthy- mei mei's little noises, the perfect sounds for each movement in the animations like asmr, the perfection in every little detail-
I was wondering if it was just me who thought this was giving off ASMR vibes! 😅 Like, the sound of the vase in the background, the mom's heels, the clink of the tray Mei Mei's holding, even the tone in the mom's voice.
I loved the employee here, he never got angry or said anything rude back. And seemed completely fine with everything they were doing, especially snice they brought their own props. Very loud energy and sure as hell tried/ burnt-out but was still chill as hell.
I like how her tearing the sheet and stepping over the table in a dress showed her impatient, quick to anger, and more childish side while her methodical fast set up showed her perfectionism. The "your perfect" bit was the positive affirmation she never got as a child but the micro management of her daughter was her childhood. Everything in this short foreshadows her parenting style. Even the dad allowing his wife to do her thing and just being there to support everyone in the end shows his parenting style.
@@StuninRub not rlly. she wasn’t forcing her daughter to be perfect or anything , she just was overprotective. she always thought mei was perfect , but she didn’t give mei room to always have a choice because she didn’t realize that mei was old enough to make important choices on her own.
@mew Only white people can watch somebody meticulously stage, reherse, and control every little tiny detail and then claim that the person was not controlling or forcing. Karen's are very easy to find.
@@illuminaticonfirmed1389 But it wasn’t the mothers intention since she was just trying to have a good relationship with her child and make sure she was able to be successful which is why mei was actually under pressure it wasn’t perfection she just wanted to keep a good relationship with her mom
this scene just hits home, especially after having seen the rest of the movie you just realise whilst parents have high expectations, they genuinely believe in you.
In what world is the mom "genuinely believing" here? You are falling for the trap of narcissism: you interpret what they say through your own lense instead of theirs. When the mom said Meimei was perfect, she was referring to her own staging, planning, posing, etc. Meimei was a prop, nothing more. The mom was patting herself on the back while forcing her daughter to serve her... all showcasing how "perfect" mom is, allowing her to say it, which in turn allowed Meimei to believe she had any merit when in actuality she was an obedient prop and as soon as she deviates she will be scum and trash out to tarnish the mother she claimed to have loved... Tl;dr tell me you've never dealt with this without telling me...
@Undomaranel Well, we each have our own interpretations. According to your saying, a parent complementing your grades is the equivalent of complementing themselves for raising you correctly. I just feel that Ming wouldn't be the kind of people to say they love someone, rather use their actions as a love language. She's fussing over how they look and complementing meimei is her way of showing she cares. I can't deny your interpretations is also one way you can look at this situation, but the same goes for you. It really depends on how it resonates with you.
@@clarefung3268 Wrong. A parent congratulating you on your hard effort and achievements is a far cry from an impersonal "perfect" as you're kneeling to them. Context matters, not just the act, or else every love making session is also rape.
I love this scene so much. You can tell that mom really does love Mei Mei, but at the same time unintentionally being controlling and setting expectations of perfection (even if that wasn’t her intent). Calling her “perfect” while fixing her hair, posture, and surrounding area hits as both loving and as foreshadowing for future consequences. I love it. It also unlocked a memory I had as my Asian mom did the exact same thing.
@@TheTrainMaster15but she does care about Mei. She worries about where she is and feeds when she thinks she's hungry like. Yes she tries to make her daughter perfect but she still loves her and cares about her.
They should have kept this in cause it perfectly illustrates the mother's need for control, perfection, and her authoritarian personality.
It does, but they took it out because it showed too much of that too early on and made it a lot harder for the audience to like Ming, which risked undercutting her whole character arc

@@Darkmage50The movie takes place in Canada. They meant fighting for the traditions as in preserving them, since it’s not an uncommon occurrence for children to lose touch with their culture when their immigrant (grand-)parents (or generations before) don’t make the effort to teach them about it.

I guess the reason why the scene was cut (despite the animation being fully rendered) was that it set up Ming’s character WAY too early.
this is the exact same "did its job too good so it was removed" bit they talk about in an anime called oshi no ko, seems harmless here but really puts into perspective how someone's or a team of people's work can just be removed if it doesnt fit a higher ups' idea of something

@@thelily3776 The directors must have wanted her overbearing and controlling nature to be revealed later in the film. Likely for impression’s sake. That’s what I gathered.
I love how shes so stiff with the staff but so encouraging and warm with her daughter even as shes still working towards her perfect vision of this photo, theres a reason Mei is as happy as she is when shes younger, her mums controlling nature didnt mean she was harsh with her daughter until they started clashing
That's generally how controlling behavior works in families... The kids don't notice it till they see different families or they start maturing and realize they're still being treated like a child

@@i_omor230 I didn't
I'm so used to seeing terrible parents in animations that seeing her mom say "perfect" freaked me out
But that was still a very villainous "perfect". Like... seeing your child in a servant role and being happy about it is already alarming on its own xD
I mean... it was still terrible. Her daughter was perfect because she dressed her and trained her to be her standard of perfect.
She wasnt saying her daughter was perfect, she was essentially saying that she herself did a perfect job with her daughter. Her daughter is just an extension of her own efforts at that point.
@@Wandervennoh my god you re reading it too much is actually hurt lmao it's just asian mom moment
@@KABLAMMATS Reading it too much? It is literally the plot of the movie. This is a deleted scene not a short. The point of the scene is to further show the toxicity of Mei's relationship with her mom just like in the movie with the scene where Mei has to give up her social life to please her mom by working with her. It isnt reading into it when it is the actual heart of the movie's conflict.
Not… really?
The point of the scene (Beyond being funny) would be to show that Ming is a woman with a very specific view of how things should be.
She isn’t toxic towards Mei-Mei, at the least not intentionally.
Heck, half the time she is right…
She just wants the best for her daughter, even if it does smother her.
I guess her dad returned from getting the milk just to be in the photo 💀

She didn’t say alright
@@dannellahaney4793 they meant the guy
I like how her tearing the sheet and stepping over the table in a dress showed her impatient, quick to anger, and more childish side while her methodical fast set up showed her perfectionism.
The "your perfect" bit was the positive affirmation she never got as a child but the micro management of her daughter was her childhood.
Everything in this short foreshadows her parenting style. Even the dad allowing his wife to do her thing and just being there to support everyone in the end shows his parenting style.
That wasn't positive affirmation, that was an expectation to live up to.
@@StuninRub not rlly. she wasn’t forcing her daughter to be perfect or anything , she just was overprotective. she always thought mei was perfect , but she didn’t give mei room to always have a choice because she didn’t realize that mei was old enough to make important choices on her own.
@@meowzers.p yeah. Turning red is just abt a kid going thru puberty imo
@@StuninRub in her eyes it was, a lot of time parents don’t realize or lack the words to express their feelings to their kids.

this scene just hits home, especially after having seen the rest of the movie you just realise whilst parents have high expectations, they genuinely believe in you.
I thought this scene was toxic
In what world is the mom "genuinely believing" here? You are falling for the trap of narcissism: you interpret what they say through your own lense instead of theirs. When the mom said Meimei was perfect, she was referring to her own staging, planning, posing, etc. Meimei was a prop, nothing more. The mom was patting herself on the back while forcing her daughter to serve her... all showcasing how "perfect" mom is, allowing her to say it, which in turn allowed Meimei to believe she had any merit when in actuality she was an obedient prop and as soon as she deviates she will be scum and trash out to tarnish the mother she claimed to have loved...
Tl;dr tell me you've never dealt with this without telling me...
@Undomaranel Well, we each have our own interpretations. According to your saying, a parent complementing your grades is the equivalent of complementing themselves for raising you correctly. I just feel that Ming wouldn't be the kind of people to say they love someone, rather use their actions as a love language. She's fussing over how they look and complementing meimei is her way of showing she cares. I can't deny your interpretations is also one way you can look at this situation, but the same goes for you. It really depends on how it resonates with you.
this is Just top notch narcisme
@@clarefung3268 Wrong. A parent congratulating you on your hard effort and achievements is a far cry from an impersonal "perfect" as you're kneeling to them. Context matters, not just the act, or else every love making session is also rape.

I love this scene so much. You can tell that mom really does love Mei Mei, but at the same time unintentionally being controlling and setting expectations of perfection (even if that wasn’t her intent).
Calling her “perfect” while fixing her hair, posture, and surrounding area hits as both loving and as foreshadowing for future consequences. I love it.
It also unlocked a memory I had as my Asian mom did the exact same thing.
Really it wouldn’t be as much of an issue if they didn’t actively force their kid to be perfect when they grow up.
I’m trying to find the “love” you are talking about. Trying to create yourself in your child is narcissism.
