    I feel bad for the animators of this film. Not only did they have such passion for the storyline in their interviews and DVD commentary, but Ruby Gillman also has a beautiful style that matches the energy of Puss In Boots with the textures of How To Train Your Dragon.

      Being fair, Dreamworks isn't necessarily known for being consistent with their output.
      For films like Shrek or How to Train Your Dragon there's duds like Boss Baby or the first Puss in Boots movie.

    One of the things I really appreciated about this movie that you didn't touch on is that Ruby's design feels properly monstrous when she goes full kraken. She's not a more "cute and cuddly" version because she's the protagonist. There's a lot of movies where the main character becomes a "monster" but the actual design doesn't match because the film is afraid we won't relate to them anymore.

    rather than her being Nerissas daughter who wants revenge because Agatha killed her mother.

      We go into the cinema, the other person isn't there yet, we sit down, wait for the film to start, and realise.... hm, that seat that's "out of order" is awfully close to the other person's seat, isn't it?
      The "person who booked a ticket" was the cinema booking the ticket so no one would sit there - we were the only two people in the showing

  • @ThomasFisher-jr6bn
    @ThomasFisher-jr6bn 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +49

    As much as I like the movie, I think the Nerissa twist brings the whole thing down.
    Not only was Chelsea more interesting as Nerissa's daughter like in earlier drafts, but the Nerissa twist also proves Grandmamah's boarderline racist view of Mermaids completely right.
    They only made this change so Agatha wouldn't have blood on her hands, but there are other ways they could've worked around this.
    "Archiveofourown" User Thatdude21 came up with a decent way to work around Agatha being a murderer.
    After Nerissa was defeated, she was banished by her kind because they didn't want to fight the krakens in the first place and she eventually gave birth to Chelsea after her banishment. One day, she would catch Agatha putting the Trident in the volcano and tries to retrieve it, but the strong currents in the volcano kill her and Chelsea, now traumatised by the horrific death of her mom, makes it her goal to avenge her mother and liberate her kind.
    If they went with this approach, Agatha at the very least wouldn't be directly responsible for the death of Nerissa.
    This is a duplicate comment in case the original doesn't resurface.
    EDIT: Thatdude21 also rewrote the climax and made it more interesting, here's a somewhat condensed version of his climax.
    Ruby doesn't stop Chelsea by destroying the trident, but by telling her that her kind didn't want to fight the krakens and they exiled Nerissa for forcing them to fight and Nerissa was also selfish for trying to the trident back without thinking about what would happen to Chelsea if she died trying to get the trident and she could've also started a new life on land with Chelsea. Ruby even gets Grandmamah to admit she might've been unfair in her judgement.
    Chelsea starts breaking down and tries to kill Ruby in a fit of rage. Ruby lets her guard down in a risky move to prove that Chelsea isn't a monster. Chelsea raises the trident and after what feels like an eternity, brings it down towards Ruby. She comes within a few feet of stabbing Ruby, but she can't bring herself to do so. She suddenly forces her arms down and starts crying.
    Ruby and Agatha comfort Chelsea who tearfully admits that she just wants to hug her mom again but she can't. Agatha and Ruby hug Chelsea and even Grandmamah rests her hand on Chelsea's back feeling rather shameful about her view on mermaids.
    Afterwards, Chelsea becomes disgusted by the trident and hands it to the krakens so they can dispose of it. They use their laser eyes to destroy it and Chelsea shrinks back to her normal mermaid form.
    After Ruby picks Chelsea up, Chelsea apologises for all the trouble she caused, but Ruby, Agatha and Grandmamah admit that if it weren't for Chelsea, Ruby wouldn't have gotten the chance to embrace who she was and the rest of the family got to patch things up even if it took getting their butts kicked and almost losing their lives.
    After that Chelsea starts leaving before Ruby blocks her because she feels that she doesn't belong there, but Ruby disagrees and after thinking for a moment she asks Agatha if Chelsea could stay with them. After Agatha asks the other family members if it's okay and they agree.
    Chelsea is overjoyed by this and Ruby brings Chelsea up to her cheek and Chelsea hugs her tearfully with Agatha and Grandmamah joining in. While Chelsea is happy to become a Gillman, she does want to wait a bit before she moves in because she wants to settle living on land first. Grandmamah even promises to search for the mermaids to tell them it’s time for a new peaceful era between the 2 species and invites Chelsea to the kraken soldier training classes after showing her impressive combat capabilites.
    Agatha then tells Ruby that she won't lie to her anymore and she can still make it to the prom. Ruby takes Chelsea to the prom boat. Brill then arrives and is informed about Chelsea's adoption which excites him and he is embraced by his mother and sister to his delight. After Ruby and Chelsea arrive at the boat looking decked out, Ruby is applauded and Chelsea, who was worried about the students shunning her, is also given a hero's welcome. After patching things up with her friends, Chelsea tells Connor that Ruby actually save him earlier and Connor and Ruby start dancing together.
    While that happens, Grandmamah catches up with Agatha and the rest of her family, including her son Sam. Meanwhile Gordon makes his apology video and becomes a kraken supporter. Back on the boat, Ruby is still dancing with Connor, Margot is dancing excitedly with Kayla, Bliss is dancing more slowly with Trevin and while Chelsea is dancing by herself she is still having the time of her life. All of them then join each other in a group dance and freeze. The dance is now a photo on Ruby's phone.
    After scrolling through several videos of her family, we see the family in their car with Agatha driving, Arthur in the passenger seat next to her, Ruby sitting in the rear right seat, Sam in the middle and Chelsea on the left. They soon arrive at their destination where Agatha warmly welcomes Chelsea to the Gillman's home. Ruby and Sam guide Chelsea through the house and as she takes in the scenery and decor of the house in awe, Nessie suddenly catched her attention. Nessie jumps into Chelsea's arm and starts licking her cheek to her with Chelsea laughing gleefully. Ruby and Sam join in on the fun while Agatha and Arthur watch proudly.
    When then fade to a view of Oceanside High. A couple of construction workers are placing what appears to be a circular plaque on the school's front. It has an illustration of Ruby in her giant form on it. Ruby, Connor, Chelsea, Margot, Trevin, and Bliss are walking up to the school. Suddenly they are stopped by Gordon parking his tour bus in front of them. Brill pokes his head out the window and tells Ruby that the Devil Whale has been spotted and is headed straight for the Kraken Kingdom. Ruby hands her bag to Connor and asks Chelsea if she want to follow her. Chelsea declines because she wants to focus on high school and jokingly says that the Devil Whale already has enough on his plate dealing with Ruby and a 2v1 would be overkill at that point. Ruby starts to run off, but then turns around to kiss Connor and starts running off again with Chelsea cheering her on. After landing in the water and becoming giant, she swims off to fight the Devil Whale as Grandmamah finishes the movie with her narration.
    Grandmamah: "See? I told you, people! The ocean will always need a Kraken, and a Kraken will always answer the call!"

    I'm pleased you pointed out the similarity to Turning Red, because it seemed to borrow from it in almost every department. By the way, this is a really good film in it's own right, but Turning Red is better in just about every department. Turning Red could make you laugh out loud, then break your heart in the blink of an eye. The two scenes, the Red Moon Ritual and the scene where Mei meets her Mom as a little girl are among the best moments I've ever seen in an animated movie. It is a seriously underrated. On the nose seems to be a regular criticism about TR's treatment of puberty, but it needed to be to break new ground to normalise sanitary towels, which are a necessary and normal part of a teenage girl's life. As I've said, this is a great little movie, but I consider Turning Red to be in a different class.

    Thanks for making these videos they're are way to many negative videos out there that just ruin people's moods. But videos that take the time to appreciate things instead of ridiculing them just makes enjoying stuff so much better. And thanks for doing Ruby I really loved this movie and was sink of people dumping on it mostly do to it's lackluster marketing it's a good movie and I would love a squeal or a streaming series. Any may I suggest you do a video on wish it's another good movie that people treat horribly for the prettiest of reasons

    This movie felt alright to me, nothing stand out, but also nothing all that bad either. If I could change one thing about the movie, I think it would've been having Chelsea actually be Nerissa's daughter. The movie was playing up themes of breaking free from the restrictive ideas of past generations, so what if Chelsea was genuinely honest about wanting the trident to bring peace between the mermaids and the krakens, only for Nerissa to show up and betray her as well? You could've had an interesting conflict where the old generation try to fight each other like they did in the old days while the new generation tried working together to overcome the obstacles they faced.
    But that's just my thoughts on how it could've improved, still a perfectly fine movie overall.

    I really really hope this movie will be touched by that rare "Dreamworks' sequel magic" because the artstyle is really cool but the story feels a bit half assed and I'm not head over heels about the movie validating the "racist grandma" in the end or teasing her more controlling and bloodthirsty behaviour only for it to go nowhere...

    • @achilleasvaitsis4343
      @achilleasvaitsis4343 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @endertuber8300 I really hope you’re right. The Ruby Gillman universe has a lot of untapped potential and it would be a pity to go to waste. Then again, both DreamWorks and Universal must have already been convinced that the movie is loved by the audience, thanks to the success it has in the streaming platforms (it was even among the top 10 movies on Netflix during February).
      As to what you said about the validation of the racist grandma, I also think that this was one of the weak points of the movie; DreamWorks Animation Studios must have been so busy fulfilling Jeffrey Katzenberg’s vision of making an Ariel doppelgänger into a villain that they ended up throwing the coherence of the movie out the window, just because of a petty grudge Katzenberg had over having the “Little Mermaid” being based on the wife of Glen Keane, the animator of the movie. As such, being driven by his grudge, Katzenberg came close to sabotaging the movie that would enact the Disney Renaissance by cutting off the song “Part of Your World”, something that, fortunately, didn’t come to pass.
      Personally, I don’t think the directors of the movie really wanted to go the route of justified racism and accepting family traditions without wanting to go further and find your own destiny. Rather, I believe they had a problem reconciling the messages of the movie with Katzenberg’s will of giving Disney the middle finger, which resulted in the movie unintentionally teaching kids that if your family has racist opinions about a certain group of people, it’s better for you to accept them and go with it.

      @@achilleasvaitsis4343 Exactly, the movie's point is not bad because they wanted it to be so but because they loaded the story with too much stuff... and the point about Ruby's goal of freedom and independance clashing with Chelsea being an Ariel middlefingers is 100% correct.
      If they remained true to the movie's message she needed to actually be Nerissa's daughter mirroring Ruby's journey of struggling with a family that controls her life and finding freedom.
      That's why I hope in some sort of continuation, it would be interesting to see more of the world and the characters grow, Chelsea specially

And with Chelsea manipulating her as a fellow, also older, “outsider” who does also get it but not enough to nit her, there’s a lot of resonant feelings. Seeing some mentions of deleted scenes, I have to wonder if that was intended.

And the whole thing was beautiful and gorgeously animated. I love how gummy the krakens look.

    Even though this movie had some similarities to Pixar's Turning Red, it's okay in my books. This movie takes Turning Red and is more action-packed than friendship and bonding. Also, the mom in this movie, Agatha, is a more understandable helicopter mom than Ming from Turning Red. Because of all of the lying and secret keeping for Agatha was so that Ruby wouldn't be dragged into war. As for Ming, she did the same thing only because she had a terrible childhood, unlike her daughter. I can see that she even did it out of jealousy.

    I felt really bad this film flopped.
    My main feeling was that even though I noticed a lot of story elements from other recent movies I felt the individual elements were all done better here. I loved this heaps more than Turning Red, especially the scene where Agatha first talks her daughter down from a panic attack. And unlike Strange World, it’s not the younger generation that had it all figured out and the elders had to do most of the learning. Here all 3 generations screwed up to some extent, and they all learn in the end.
    I agree that there may be a bit too much stuffed in this at times but I had a lot of fun with this movie.
