Hi. I like your videos. I wonder. Have you ever analyze The Idea of You? I think you all would like it and have thoughts. As did I even though I'm not a licensed therapist like you. 😆
The "Still Alive" joke hits me every time. During the big 2020 event I couldn't see my gran, but she text me every day with "Still Alive!", because this is one of our favourite movies and she has a dark sense of humour. I still wait for those texts every day. Love you, Gran xxx
I remember the very first time my sister and I saw this movie years ago and when we saw that scene we burst out laughing. All these years later I still love that movie and that scene 😂
I’m grateful they didn’t make Grug the stereotypical stupid dad. He is ignorant to the new world but not stupid. He is a loving father and cares for his family. I loved seeing him and family grow. My hubby loves this movie!
Same here! I love that he wasn't the villain either. What really solidified how amazing Grug was in his introduction when he didn't get any of the egg meal they'd worked so hard to get. He made sure the rest of the family ate first and then reassured them when there was nothing left for him. Because of that introduction, it made the rest of his actions very clear that they were primarily motivated from a place of love.
Movies without stereotypical villains are great and should become the standard anyways 😁 What I really loved about Grug is that it's so easy to distinguish when he does something right as a father and when he does something wrong as a father. He's not a good role model per se, but it's very easy to understand when you should learn from him 🥰
The Croods is my favorite from DreamWorks. A good story on curiosity, and on one hand, it could hurt you, but for the most part its something new and interesting.
sadly in the 2nd movie, it did lack a bit on redemptation and understanding even in the end of the movie, specially when it also meant at the end of the movie they go back to "no showering/hygiene" lifestyle lololol all the more modern looking family just lacked family bonding, their privacy policy is honestly valid but can be isolating in general...
I honestly loved the sequel!**spoilers**It wasn't perfect, but the way they bring the Betterman's daughter into living a life with risk taking and courage was nice and I LOVED the dad's broing out after realizing, they're both caring parents, and that's all you need to respect another person. To know that you both care. And the couple montage of Eep and Guy is so cute!!! It reminded me so much of me and my bf, how we had growing pains getting used to how we operated and nee obstacles. We learned to speak each other's language metaphorically, and respect each other, to never lose sight of what's important, no matter how at odds we may feel. Teamwork really is key in a relationship, and I loved that the sequel dealt with a new problem that came between them, but they grew into more understanding people because of it.
Guys backstory always makes me cry because of what's so strongly implied. We don't see it in flashback, but you just imagine this small child watching his parents slowly sink into the tar. All three of them knowing they're going to die a horrible death, slow and suffocating, and none of them can do anything about it. And his parents use their last bit of time to encourage their son to live his life. I think they must have made him leave before they sank under completely. Or maybe he refused to go. Either way, it's pure horror. Edit: the way Guy yells STOP and holds out his hand always niggled at me and I wasn't sure why. It just occurred to me that might be what his dad or mom did to stop him trying to get closer to them.
The first few minutes of Croods 2 does provide some detail on what happened during Guy’s parents’ last moments. It doesn’t describe how they got in that situation, what they were doing on their own, how Guy managed to escape, etc. It was a simple shot of young Guy watching his parents slowly sink and his parents doing whatever they could to get him to run to safety and not worry about them. Very intense scene for sure. The rest of the Croods 2 is very more light hearted of course, but I think of that opening shot when Guy makes a comment to Eep later in the movie about how the two view the world. Eep takes life in stride because she never got to really experience it until now, whereas Guy accepts the chaos of life but also longs for some semblance of safety and comfort.
Had a feeling this movie would show up sooner or later. I like the scene over the ocean, when Eep dismisses Grugg's warning but follows Guy's warning. Since Grugg impulsively labels everything as dangerous even when it isn't, he ends up being treated like the boy who cried wolf, while Guy assesses reasonable caution and safe execution. I also like when the family gets separated, and Grugg repeatedly finding himself back where he started illustrating how stuck he is in his mindset.
Also when Eep insults her father and says they have to follow Guy now, her voice cracks, she knows it hurt her father and she doesn’t want to do that, she just wants everyone to survive and wants her dad to see the truth
Especially since it had a great sequel. Nowadays sequels are hard to pull off, but my family saw that movie in theaters and rented it several times before we bought it because we loved it so much.
I first saw this movie a few months after my dad died, with my daughter in arm and my pregnant wife by my side. Grug is so much like he was, sacrificing and fighting for his family, always, even when he was wrong. During the cliff scene my wife saw me silently crying, said nothing, but just squeezed my arm. It's been one of my favorite movies ever since.
My favorite bit in this movie is always when Grug gets that gleam in his eye every time he imagines his mother-in-law dying. It will never fail to make me laugh. XD
I literally never understood why people don’t like this film. Everything about it is so unique, the characters, the setting, the themes. It’s so funny, and charming, but also relatable and human. I can watch it over and over again.
This movie make so much sense in my family dynamic. After studying sociology and being the butt of every joke I have seen how they open up to the knowledge I give them. Last week my father, the surgeon, told me he failed philosophy on hid first year of medicine and felt stupid because he felt like he was only good for technical stuff, studying manuals and then mindlessly cutting away. I admire him cause he is always studying, and is his influence that made me dream in thinking outside the cultural box of my family.
My father was just a PE teacher, and he's not exactly very good at.... modern living, so to speak. But he always reinforced he was unreliable, not-the-best, and never followed archetypes or public reactions without good proof or good reason. I am able to really doubt my common sense and constantly learn that I am usually wrong, thanks for his weird role model.
Don't forget the dynamics of the father and daughter relationship. Guy comes and changes Eeps world. His little girl no longer needs him and no longer looks to him for protection and knowledge she has turned to this new man in her life, Guy.
Attempt #(16) of asking for Spirit : Stallion of the Cimarron!! Was my absolute childhood movie growing up and the filmmaking is so beautiful with amazing scores and concepts of loss and staying true to once nature even in the face of adversity!
Dreamworks has made some hidden gems - Megamind, Monsters vs. Aliens, Rise of the Guardians, Madagascar...not all their movies hit it out of the park, but when they're good they're really good. Love how willing they are to embrace the weird
I remember each of those movies being a phenomenon and spawning so much toys and merch then slowly getting replaced by new things. It feels good to rediscover things I loved when I was younger.
I love the croods. It shows how important families are. Even when they are not perfect or with crazy ideas but shows love to each other. Eep’s dad is overprotective of his family because he shows how much he cares for them but he also learned that making mistakes and going to their own path makes the family stronger. Eep is rebel because she never had a time to grow up so when she met guy she learns about being on her own and learns what is real love. Eep never knew until his dad makes a hard decision to put his family first that Eep realizes that he make many rules becase he was scared to let go . Eep’s dad also realizes that she does not need anymore protection because she’s not a child anymore. Her dad learned that it’s hard to let go but it’s for the best to make the family stronger.
"that wasn't living, that was just not dying; there's a difference" is something that i quote ALL THE TIME. also i have to point out the necessity of one-way perspective-taking... it's grug taking guy's perspective that changes his mind and helps him evolve and survive and thrive. guy doesn't need to take grug's perspective. guy doesn't need to learn to think like grug. when one perspective looks to the past and the status quo and the rejection of change, that is the perspective that needs to be cast aside. we are all running headlong into tomorrow whether we want to or not - we can either be afraid of it, or be prepared for it.
Oh heck yeah, I love The Croods, I find it underrated and more people should give it a shot. Originally yeah I fell into the trap of “oh it’s just gonna be caveman humor for an hour and so” but years later realized I slept on an awesome movie that got much better going into it with an open mind, especially since the message revolves around having one and using innovation to keep finding new ways of resolving problems so you advance with the world. It’s wonderful. Also the running gag of Grug thinking his mother-in-law died is hilarious.
The line of Eep "That wasn't living! That was just not dying!" resonates so much to me. Because my Dad was like Gurg but we couldn't bring him to change his way of thinking
This movie means a lot to me because my dad used to have a similar mentality, and he and I used to have a similar not quite working relationship, especially when it came to his autism and adhd that I got from him. My dad spent a really long time masking and in survival mode, and didn't even realize he was autistic and adhd until several years after I got diagnosed, and we found out the two disabilities are genetic. I used to feel a similar way that Eep did about her dad for most of the movie, because my dad used to (out of love) ask me when I struggled with basic or 'easy' tasks, "How are you going to function as an adult/live alone if you can't do X?". I know now as an adult he was saying those things because he was worried about me and my future, but as a kid/young teenager all I heard was "You can't have a future because you can't do these things that everyone else can." I never even realized that my dad also struggled with a lot of the things I did, he was just really good at figuring things out on his own and masking (Even though masking is very draining). It's been a few years, my dad has grown and evolved to understand that those questions or saying things like that don't help, and now he's helping me learn how to be an adult and learn to take care of myself in a more loving and understanding way. And we have a much better relationship, where I'm also teaching him things about our neurodivergencies he didn't know about before. (It's also for this reason that I love the movie Mitchell's vs the Machines, because I see a lot of myself and my dad in Katie and her dad)
That last part when they hugged you can see the difference. The hug starts with her holding him as a adult ( by the waist) but the second hug was like a little girl would hug her daddy he picks her up she holds him by the neck. 😢
Recommendations (if possible) - Hero psychology of Gwen Stacy: Across the Spiderverse - Character psychology of Marie: Unbelievable (8 episode miniseries) - Psychology of an antihero of Joel: HBO The Last of Us (possible Troy Baker guest star) - Nimona - Dreamworks Abominable - Psychology of a Villain: Snow from Hunger Games (both prequel & original trilogy) - As They Made Us (w/ Mayim Bialik guest star) - Psychology of a Hero; Main leads from Infinity Train - Erin Brokovish (w/ real life Erin) - Guest stars; Ryan Renold, Jim Parson, Sofia Vegara, Chris Sanders.
Oh yes! Please if you’re able do a video on Nimona! I know a lot of its initial hype is gone now but it would be such an interesting movie to explore!!!!!!! ❤❤❤
The more time passes, the more The Croods becomes one of Dreamwork's most underrated films. Sure, the metaphor's on the nose, but that's not always a bad thing.
Arghhgghg. I hate how the movie basically summarised how it is like for me and my dad. When that scene came out it broke me, n he didnt know this but i saw him tearing up too. 😭😢💕
I faced my fear today on socialising and going into a shop to ask for a job. I did it and I have gotten my first job ever! Guys never let fear hold you back because once u face this fear, you will feel sooo happy a great joy will literally fill your heart ❤
I remember watching this movie as a kid and liking it well enough, but I watched it again somewhat recently and realized that the main character of the movie is Grug, and when you rewatch it through that lens it got really good
The Croods is undoubtedly one of my favorite movies growing up and an underrated DreamWorks movie i was so glad it got a sequel. I knew even when i was a child the family dynamic the Croods suffered with most especially with the father being overprotective and not being brave enough to face the unknown just to keep his family safe. But was also stopping his family and Epp to be able to develop independently and be able to face the unknown and adapt to the ever changing world around them which if he never ended up changing in the end would've gotten him and his family killed but luckily he allowed himself to change and develop to figure out a way to save himself and the animals he saved to get safely back to his family. He allowed change to happen in order to help himself and his family adapt to the new world they found themselves in and survive it together.
I know this channel doesn't substitute for licensed therapy or anything, but Cinema Therapy has been so helpful and insightful in so many ways personally. Thank you for all that your team does! I hope this channel has exponential growth so you can reach and help more people.
You know, with so much Dreamworks movies that you’ve done, there’s alot of movies to discover. I would like to see if you can react Road to El Dorado and Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron. That be greaaat.
Same here! Because of my autism croods became a hyper obsession of mine WAAAY back and it's still my favorite movie :) despite its flaws i think its perfect
I've loved The Croods since I was just a little kid, it's one of my all time favourite movies. When I heard about the sequel I literally screamed I happiness lmao
This movie was one of the things that ultimately saved my relationship with my father. I won't go into details, but watching this for the first time as a teenager, I saw a lot of my Dad in Grug, and a lot of myself in Eep. I don't know if I'll ever have the courage to tell him everything that goes through my head when I watch this movie, but I would be lying if I said I didn't feel like crying when I hear "I guess I was just trying to keep everyone alive." "It's okay, it's what dads do."
As someone who has loved the Croods since I saw the movie in the theater, and as someone who also loves the sequel, I'm really happy you guys made a video of them! I think a lot of people don't appreciate this movie enough, it's really good, funny, and with a very tender heartfelt message 😊 thank you for making this video!
I wonder what Jon and Alan would have to say about The Croods: A New Age. Grug and Guy's bonding session is so hard-hitting, and I love it for that. On a different note, Ryan Reynolds is one of my favorite actors.
this movie always makes me cry because my dad is my best friend but the older I get the more I challenge his opinion while no one else does, as the eldest daughter it's somewhat my responsibility 😂. I just feel like my father doesn't love me anymore especially because I don't spend all of my time with him or do everything he says or I'm not as affectionate. We are all about surviving but we haven't had the chance to live and that has put a strain on our relationship. It hurts but this movie makes me cry reminding me of us...
11:28 - this is one of the reasons I love Cinema Therapy so much. I never would have consciously noticed that, but now that it’s been pointed out I’m just in awe.
This is one of the few movies I can rewatch because the visual storytelling and the message are stronger than my aversion to repeat experiences. I remember stories so well, I just don’t find value in experiencing a story I already read/watched/played more than once. The Croods is different and well worth rewatching on occasion! (And a lot of other stuff, too, but they are the minority.)
The guy being the family therapist but he's not telling them what to do makes me think of all the things he shows them like the fire and the shoes, it reminds me of a therapist giving you the tools of resources to succeed but again, they aren't telling you how to use them. ❤❤ great video!!
Jonothan, the whole time you were talking about what you would say to Grug as a therapist, I kept picturing Grug chasing you, going, "Big words anger me!" LOL I love these videos from you guys so much.
My absolute F.A.V.O.U.R.I.T.E. animated film of ALL time✨ It goes SO far beyond just teaching a good message or two, demonstrating how every central character feels while also not sacrificing the story in the process & making the connections between the characters believable & organic - you feel why Eep & Guy are drawn to each other, you feel the growing sense of wonder the cast gains for the world around them & feel the relief & warmth when Guy & Grug reach an understanding & make peace with one another. Oh & did I mention the score & ending theme is P.H.E.N.O.M.E.N.A.L.✨👌 SO glad you guys finally covered this film❣️🥹
Thank you for movie therapy, guys. It's nice to cry with you. It helped me to live through a heartbreak and got me familiar with so much beautiful films.
22:43 You did not just say that!! Some of my favorite animation movies are from them! How to train your dragon (the trilogy), The Croods, The road to El Dorado, Spirit : Stallion of Cimarron, etc.
We love them too! Maybe not all of them are hits, but some of them are truly great! Here's our Dreamworks playlist in case you've missed any: th-cam.com/play/PLRO9q005b62UfzXBsvqSpP1-lgWa6mWlJ.html
I love this movie and most people I know don’t like it. They thinks it’s a dumb goofy movie about cavemen, which yeah it is a little bit. But it’s also a story of growth, each character changes in their own subtle natural ways and thrives by the end. Like no one ever talks about how the baby went from a literal feral animal growling and snarling, to a cooing child who learns to talk. It’s the little things that make this movie great. It’s HIGHLY underrated in my opinion
I actually spoke with my therapist a little about perspective taking yesterday in regards to helping fix my relationship with my dad. We both agreed that perspective taking could help me immeasurable in helping approach my dad about how what he says affects me without saying it in such a way that he’ll be able to understand it.
This is exactly why I will never stop recommending these videos to my friends in need. My curiosity led me to new information that I deeply want to share with those who need it, even if i'm not eloquent enough about it to wrap it in the right packaging to deliver my message.
My favorite part of this movie is when Grug is in the cave drawing his family and then he draws his arms as a circle around them all. Makes me cry every dang time.
Hi there! Just a suggestion because I love both of your thought processes! :D You should check out Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (i personally think its another great and forgotten Dreamworks film)! It's been a childhood favorite of mine and it wraps up almost everything I admire in story-telling. The animation is DROP DEAD GORGEOUS! On a deeper level, as I was growing older, it made me realize much more lessons within like self-fulfilling prophecies.
This is my favorite family film of all time! Grug reminded me a lot of my own father and unfortunately we're not on good terms anymore. I'm not good at communicating what's inside my head and he just resorts to anger. Thanks for covering this one and I hope you cover the sequel! ❤
Please consider doing the sequel, it's even better imo with great family dynamics and a healthy relationship between Ip an Guy, and I'd love to hear you guys talk about it!
My sister and I watched this movie a lot when we were little and we loved it. I hadn’t watched it in years but I got into it again a couple of years ago. I had forgotten just how moving and touching it is. It made me cry! Plus the animation is gorgeous and the voice cast is perfect
I love this episode. For a long time, all I ever did was hide in the cave and survive due to personal circumstances. It hits hard when we need to evolve because we need to grow and stay improved for good. ❤
omg the speed with which I clicked onto this video... this is unironiocally one of my favorite movies and I recommend it to literally everyone and their mother XD
I liked The Croods as a little kid, but I forgot about it as I got older. Then the pandemic hit and I started watching all the films/shows from my childhood. It was my favorite movie for that first year and a half stuck inside. Like a lot of people, my mental health declined rapidly during lockdown and I was in a deep depression and had terrible anxiety. I thought the world was going to end or someone I loved wouldn't wake up the next morning. But the themes and mantras in this film helped me through it. Like when Guy recalls what his parents told him, "Follow the sun. You'll make it to tomorrow." Or when Eep admits her fear to Grug and he tells her "Never be afraid." At a time when I didn't know if I would ever see my friends or family again, I needed to hear that. And I still tell myself that when I need to do something big or intimidating. Also, the score! The texture of the animation! The relatable but loving family dynamics! The body positivity when Eep takes the heavy comment as a compliment! Yes! Man, I love this film. STILL ALIVE!
Oh my gosh, I forgot how much this movie meant to me as a kid. This made me so emotional rewatching it. Thanks to both of you so much for making this review.
You should do a Cinema (Family) Therapy on James and the Giant Peach. It's a wonderful display of a loving, supportive family through the relationship between James and the bugs. Unlike his aunts who regularly insult and berate James (causing him to be quite fearful and have very low self-esteem in the first half of the movie), all of the bugs show him unwavering love and support: encouraging his ideas, praising him when he succeeds, and providing comfort when he's sad. Yes, the film does have random events that pop up out of nowhere and don't really make a lot of sense, the found family dynamic amongst James and the bugs, in my opinion, make it worth watching. Besides, the movie is based on a book by Roald Dahl, so some unexplainable weirdness is to be expected. 😆 It would be great to hear your thoughts on it! 🥰
I recently watched The Croods again and sobbed through the good-bye scene especially with the hug because I can't have that anymore. My dad and I butted heads a lot especially since I've been an adult, but I'd love one last hug.
I like how saying "What would Gai do" rhymes with "What would I do" because then the smooth transition between each lines makes the moment more impactful
I remember seeing the Croods as a little kid. I think its one of the reason I know love anthropology and archeology. It sparks so much curiosity of the past, and the future. Lovely movie, definitely need to rewatch it.
And I think it is also worth noting that it's a balance between the two. Guy is more progressed than Eep's family because he is in tune with both his Growth mode and Survival mode, aka balanced.
My mom wouldn't take me to go see The Croods in theaters (despite me asking after seeing the trailer) because she thought it was just a stupid potty-humor type kids movie and didn't want to pay money to see it. When I finally saw it a quite a few years later on my own, I *LOVED* it. I've struggled with both my parents the most out of me and my siblings, and I'm kind of considered the black sheep of the family since I'm the only LGBTQIA+ one in the entire extended family (that's known/out, at least). At the time I saw this movie, I was clashing with my dad terribly, and I bawled my eyes out because I really wanted a scene like in the ending. I'm doing a little bit better with my parents now years later as an adult, but we still have a lot of conflict. I still love this movie so much. Thank you for covering it.
This movie was such a huge influence of my childhood! I love the designs of the creatures and how each family member is an animal (also the textures in the animation OH MY GOD). The message is so beautiful and it honestly taught me how tribalism works. Grug is so much like my father minus the glasses, and Im somewhat like Eep. We haven't reached the point that they are at the end of the movie and honestly I don't know if we ever will. But I can thank this movie for how open I am to hearing new people's stories and how curious I am of the world I haven't seen yet, also my obsession with the buff woman/thin snarky man dynamic. I remember wanting an Owlbear of my own for YEARS (still do).
Amazing episode. Also very well put that people should reognise each other's intentions, and not only look at other's behaviour. Sometimes people may behave badly, but that doesn't make them a bad person, or make the motivations for those behaviours bad. If you're struggling with loved ones because of a bad behaviour, I think it is important to open up and empathise, and give your loved ones the chance to express their intentions, and show them respect for being a person who cares and loves you.
I love how I immediately heard it's Silvestri and Alan confirms. That string part is straight out of Back to the Future part III when Clara is making her way to Emmett along the side of the train.

Hi. I like your videos. I wonder. Have you ever analyze The Idea of You? I think you all would like it and have thoughts. As did I even though I'm not a licensed therapist like you. 😆
If I had a nickel for everytime a Ryan Reynolds character was name Guy I'd have two nickels...which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
…oh my god you’re right.
Nah....it's weird it hasn't happened MORE often!
I mean... he looks like a Guy....!
Named Guy
I think of this phrase every time I remember this. Maybe it'll happen again
It it weird that I read that in Doofenschmirtz voice?
The "Still Alive" joke hits me every time. During the big 2020 event I couldn't see my gran, but she text me every day with "Still Alive!", because this is one of our favourite movies and she has a dark sense of humour. I still wait for those texts every day. Love you, Gran xxx
That is the sweetest & funniest thing I've ever heard 😢😂 damn I miss my grandpa 😭 (died in 2020.)
I remember the very first time my sister and I saw this movie years ago and when we saw that scene we burst out laughing. All these years later I still love that movie and that scene 😂
I love her sense of humour! 💗
And now my eyes are leaking. Thanks, for that! 🥰😏
I’m grateful they didn’t make Grug the stereotypical stupid dad. He is ignorant to the new world but not stupid. He is a loving father and cares for his family. I loved seeing him and family grow. My hubby loves this movie!
Same here! I love that he wasn't the villain either.
What really solidified how amazing Grug was in his introduction when he didn't get any of the egg meal they'd worked so hard to get. He made sure the rest of the family ate first and then reassured them when there was nothing left for him. Because of that introduction, it made the rest of his actions very clear that they were primarily motivated from a place of love.
Movies without stereotypical villains are great and should become the standard anyways 😁
What I really loved about Grug is that it's so easy to distinguish when he does something right as a father and when he does something wrong as a father. He's not a good role model per se, but it's very easy to understand when you should learn from him 🥰
@@psyckwhoever4197you could use a stereotype so they could be fleshed out
The Croods is my favorite from DreamWorks. A good story on curiosity, and on one hand, it could hurt you, but for the most part its something new and interesting.
Yeahh had related to the daughter here with a well intentioned but protective dad/parents homeschooling
I'm hoping that Jono and Alan will do The Croods 2. There's a lot to unpack there, too.
With prince of Egypt existing, this movie could never compete.
Except that it can. Price of Egypt is good, this is also good. They're wildly different movies.
@@earth2saka Croods is good. Prince of Egypt is a masterpiece. One does not undo the greatness of the other, but they cannot compare.
The Croods 2 focuses a lot on Guy and Eep’s relationship, perfect opportunity for a couples therapy episode :)
Oh my gosh. There's a second movie? Thanks! I know what I'll watch this Sunday
Exactly
sadly in the 2nd movie, it did lack a bit on redemptation and understanding even in the end of the movie, specially when it also meant at the end of the movie they go back to "no showering/hygiene" lifestyle lololol all the more modern looking family just lacked family bonding, their privacy policy is honestly valid but can be isolating in general...
I honestly loved the sequel!**spoilers**It wasn't perfect, but the way they bring the Betterman's daughter into living a life with risk taking and courage was nice and I LOVED the dad's broing out after realizing, they're both caring parents, and that's all you need to respect another person. To know that you both care. And the couple montage of Eep and Guy is so cute!!! It reminded me so much of me and my bf, how we had growing pains getting used to how we operated and nee obstacles. We learned to speak each other's language metaphorically, and respect each other, to never lose sight of what's important, no matter how at odds we may feel. Teamwork really is key in a relationship, and I loved that the sequel dealt with a new problem that came between them, but they grew into more understanding people because of it.

Guys backstory always makes me cry because of what's so strongly implied. We don't see it in flashback, but you just imagine this small child watching his parents slowly sink into the tar. All three of them knowing they're going to die a horrible death, slow and suffocating, and none of them can do anything about it. And his parents use their last bit of time to encourage their son to live his life. I think they must have made him leave before they sank under completely. Or maybe he refused to go. Either way, it's pure horror.
Edit: the way Guy yells STOP and holds out his hand always niggled at me and I wasn't sure why. It just occurred to me that might be what his dad or mom did to stop him trying to get closer to them.
Thankfully he did leave before he saw his parents go under if the sequel is anything to go off of. We get to see Guy's backstory there.
The first few minutes of Croods 2 does provide some detail on what happened during Guy’s parents’ last moments. It doesn’t describe how they got in that situation, what they were doing on their own, how Guy managed to escape, etc.
It was a simple shot of young Guy watching his parents slowly sink and his parents doing whatever they could to get him to run to safety and not worry about them. Very intense scene for sure.
The rest of the Croods 2 is very more light hearted of course, but I think of that opening shot when Guy makes a comment to Eep later in the movie about how the two view the world. Eep takes life in stride because she never got to really experience it until now, whereas Guy accepts the chaos of life but also longs for some semblance of safety and comfort.
it WHAT at you !?!?!???!!😐🗣️👀

I like the scene over the ocean, when Eep dismisses Grugg's warning but follows Guy's warning. Since Grugg impulsively labels everything as dangerous even when it isn't, he ends up being treated like the boy who cried wolf, while Guy assesses reasonable caution and safe execution. I also like when the family gets separated, and Grugg repeatedly finding himself back where he started illustrating how stuck he is in his mindset.
Yes, I’m surprised they didn’t review the scene in the cave where he gets stuck.
Also when Eep insults her father and says they have to follow Guy now, her voice cracks, she knows it hurt her father and she doesn’t want to do that, she just wants everyone to survive and wants her dad to see the truth
The Croods is DreamWorks most underrated movie
SO TRUE it is a CRIME how underrated it is
Especially since it had a great sequel. Nowadays sequels are hard to pull off, but my family saw that movie in theaters and rented it several times before we bought it because we loved it so much.
completely agree. great writing.
Personally, I disagree. Sinbad is more underrated. The Croods got a sequel and a TV show.
@@westerfrost3701 Are you saying it was kind of Singood? I'll show myself out...
I first saw this movie a few months after my dad died, with my daughter in arm and my pregnant wife by my side. Grug is so much like he was, sacrificing and fighting for his family, always, even when he was wrong. During the cliff scene my wife saw me silently crying, said nothing, but just squeezed my arm.
It's been one of my favorite movies ever since.
I’m so sorry you lost your dad
@@noorbohamad5796 Thank you, sincerely.
I can't wait to see a Cinema (Family) Therapy on Fantastic Mr. Fox
I second this
Oh my god yes
YES! That would be a perfect November pick.
Here Here!
Especially with Ash and how him being Diffferent ™ feels coded for being autistic/nd
My favorite bit in this movie is always when Grug gets that gleam in his eye every time he imagines his mother-in-law dying. It will never fail to make me laugh. XD
I literally never understood why people don’t like this film. Everything about it is so unique, the characters, the setting, the themes. It’s so funny, and charming, but also relatable and human. I can watch it over and over again.
This movie make so much sense in my family dynamic. After studying sociology and being the butt of every joke I have seen how they open up to the knowledge I give them. Last week my father, the surgeon, told me he failed philosophy on hid first year of medicine and felt stupid because he felt like he was only good for technical stuff, studying manuals and then mindlessly cutting away. I admire him cause he is always studying, and is his influence that made me dream in thinking outside the cultural box of my family.
My father was just a PE teacher, and he's not exactly very good at.... modern living, so to speak. But he always reinforced he was unreliable, not-the-best, and never followed archetypes or public reactions without good proof or good reason.
I am able to really doubt my common sense and constantly learn that I am usually wrong, thanks for his weird role model.
@@forgotultag1543 weird dads for the win, man... they have us questioning everything, and that is alright 💯
i love how this movie portrays Grug- he's the antagonist while simultaneously being incredibly sympathetic and caring.
Don't forget the dynamics of the father and daughter relationship. Guy comes and changes Eeps world. His little girl no longer needs him and no longer looks to him for protection and knowledge she has turned to this new man in her life, Guy.
Attempt #(16) of asking for Spirit : Stallion of the Cimarron!! Was my absolute childhood movie growing up and the filmmaking is so beautiful with amazing scores and concepts of loss and staying true to once nature even in the face of adversity!
YEESS I second that!!!! It’s such a good movie 😍
Yessss
YES!!! Oh my god that movie changed my brain chemistry as a kid
Yes please, it’s still my favorite kids movie
I still want Last Unicorn
Dreamworks has made some hidden gems - Megamind, Monsters vs. Aliens, Rise of the Guardians, Madagascar...not all their movies hit it out of the park, but when they're good they're really good. Love how willing they are to embrace the weird
Totally agree! Have you seen all of our Dreamworks videos? th-cam.com/play/PLRO9q005b62UfzXBsvqSpP1-lgWa6mWlJ.html
@@CinemaTherapyShow Yes :) Thanks for the playlist! I keep forgetting youtube can do that...
I remember each of those movies being a phenomenon and spawning so much toys and merch then slowly getting replaced by new things. It feels good to rediscover things I loved when I was younger.
I love the croods. It shows how important families are. Even when they are not perfect or with crazy ideas but shows love to each other.
Eep’s dad is overprotective of his family because he shows how much he cares for them but he also learned that making mistakes and going to their own path makes the family stronger.
Eep is rebel because she never had a time to grow up so when she met guy she learns about being on her own and learns what is real love. Eep never knew until his dad makes a hard decision to put his family first that Eep realizes that he make many rules becase he was scared to let go .
Eep’s dad also realizes that she does not need anymore protection because she’s not a child anymore. Her dad learned that it’s hard to let go but it’s for the best to make the family stronger.
Just the info, her name is Eep. Not Eve. Agree with everything though!
"that wasn't living, that was just not dying; there's a difference" is something that i quote ALL THE TIME. also i have to point out the necessity of one-way perspective-taking... it's grug taking guy's perspective that changes his mind and helps him evolve and survive and thrive. guy doesn't need to take grug's perspective. guy doesn't need to learn to think like grug. when one perspective looks to the past and the status quo and the rejection of change, that is the perspective that needs to be cast aside. we are all running headlong into tomorrow whether we want to or not - we can either be afraid of it, or be prepared for it.
8:45 *FIRE EXISTS*
THUNK: It likes me! Ow! It’s biting me!
GRUG: Try hiding in the tall dry grass!
*WILDFIRE*
*BONFIRE LIT*
Oh heck yeah, I love The Croods, I find it underrated and more people should give it a shot. Originally yeah I fell into the trap of “oh it’s just gonna be caveman humor for an hour and so” but years later realized I slept on an awesome movie that got much better going into it with an open mind, especially since the message revolves around having one and using innovation to keep finding new ways of resolving problems so you advance with the world. It’s wonderful.
Also the running gag of Grug thinking his mother-in-law died is hilarious.
immediate click lol
Same
Literally!😂
Right this was me : "this one's definitely gonna make me cry" click
Immediate
Same lol
The line of Eep "That wasn't living! That was just not dying!" resonates so much to me. Because my Dad was like Gurg but we couldn't bring him to change his way of thinking
This movie means a lot to me because my dad used to have a similar mentality, and he and I used to have a similar not quite working relationship, especially when it came to his autism and adhd that I got from him. My dad spent a really long time masking and in survival mode, and didn't even realize he was autistic and adhd until several years after I got diagnosed, and we found out the two disabilities are genetic.
I used to feel a similar way that Eep did about her dad for most of the movie, because my dad used to (out of love) ask me when I struggled with basic or 'easy' tasks, "How are you going to function as an adult/live alone if you can't do X?". I know now as an adult he was saying those things because he was worried about me and my future, but as a kid/young teenager all I heard was "You can't have a future because you can't do these things that everyone else can." I never even realized that my dad also struggled with a lot of the things I did, he was just really good at figuring things out on his own and masking (Even though masking is very draining).
It's been a few years, my dad has grown and evolved to understand that those questions or saying things like that don't help, and now he's helping me learn how to be an adult and learn to take care of myself in a more loving and understanding way. And we have a much better relationship, where I'm also teaching him things about our neurodivergencies he didn't know about before.
(It's also for this reason that I love the movie Mitchell's vs the Machines, because I see a lot of myself and my dad in Katie and her dad)
I love this
That last part when they hugged you can see the difference. The hug starts with her holding him as a adult ( by the waist) but the second hug was like a little girl would hug her daddy he picks her up she holds him by the neck. 😢
Recommendations (if possible)
- Hero psychology of Gwen Stacy: Across the Spiderverse
- Character psychology of Marie: Unbelievable (8 episode miniseries)
- Psychology of an antihero of Joel: HBO The Last of Us (possible Troy Baker guest star)
- Nimona
- Dreamworks Abominable
- Psychology of a Villain: Snow from Hunger Games (both prequel & original trilogy)
- As They Made Us (w/ Mayim Bialik guest star)
- Psychology of a Hero; Main leads from Infinity Train
- Erin Brokovish (w/ real life Erin)
- Guest stars; Ryan Renold, Jim Parson, Sofia Vegara, Chris Sanders.
Oh yes! Please if you’re able do a video on Nimona! I know a lot of its initial hype is gone now but it would be such an interesting movie to explore!!!!!!! ❤❤❤
NIMONAAA!!
I second all of this 👍
the hunger games one would be amazing!!! there could be so many videos out of the hunger games
President Snow episode would definitely be very well done and a lot to talk about.
The more time passes, the more The Croods becomes one of Dreamwork's most underrated films. Sure, the metaphor's on the nose, but that's not always a bad thing.
modern audiences actually prefer on the nose, despite how much they may say they don't, because they don't like to think while watching a movie
20:30 BREAKS me every. Single. Time.
This movie surprised me with how intelligent it really is. Plus, the visuals are friggin GORGEOUS. ❤
Arghhgghg. I hate how the movie basically summarised how it is like for me and my dad. When that scene came out it broke me, n he didnt know this but i saw him tearing up too. 😭😢💕
I faced my fear today on socialising and going into a shop to ask for a job. I did it and I have gotten my first job ever! Guys never let fear hold you back because once u face this fear, you will feel sooo happy a great joy will literally fill your heart ❤
Welcome to the club, Bethany.
My favorite line from this movie. “If you live, I live” perfectly encapsulates the lengths a father is willing to go.
I remember watching this movie as a kid and liking it well enough, but I watched it again somewhat recently and realized that the main character of the movie is Grug, and when you rewatch it through that lens it got really good
One of my favorite lines from this whole movie is: “Big words anger me…keep talking!”
The Croods is undoubtedly one of my favorite movies growing up and an underrated DreamWorks movie i was so glad it got a sequel. I knew even when i was a child the family dynamic the Croods suffered with most especially with the father being overprotective and not being brave enough to face the unknown just to keep his family safe.
But was also stopping his family and Epp to be able to develop independently and be able to face the unknown and adapt to the ever changing world around them which if he never ended up changing in the end would've gotten him and his family killed but luckily he allowed himself to change and develop to figure out a way to save himself and the animals he saved to get safely back to his family. He allowed change to happen in order to help himself and his family adapt to the new world they found themselves in and survive it together.
you know it’s a good day when the internet dads post
i saw this movie in theaters when it first came out. the ending scene with eep and grug makes me cry 😭
I know this channel doesn't substitute for licensed therapy or anything, but Cinema Therapy has been so helpful and insightful in so many ways personally. Thank you for all that your team does! I hope this channel has exponential growth so you can reach and help more people.
I think you'd have fun with Nimona. Blue Sky studio's last film before they were shut down.
that is so sad, RIP Blue Sky
Nimona ep is coming soon!
@@CinemaTherapyShow YAY
EEEEEEEEEEWWASEEWAAWESWWWWE!!!!!!!!!
NIMONA!!!!!!
I thought that was Spies in Disguise
The Croods is such an underrated movie. I wish more people knew and talked about it, and im glad yall did.
You know, with so much Dreamworks movies that you’ve done, there’s alot of movies to discover. I would like to see if you can react Road to El Dorado and Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron. That be greaaat.
OH MY GOD YES I LOVE THE CROODS
Same here! Because of my autism croods became a hyper obsession of mine WAAAY back and it's still my favorite movie :) despite its flaws i think its perfect
@@snufhuffboy5101it’s up there in my favs!!!! same with the second one even if people didn’t like it so much lol
@@snufhuffboy5101Eep comes off as ADHD, though she might just be a teenager.
Same thing sometimes. 😅
Lol, this was literally my response to this too. 😁🥳
I've loved The Croods since I was just a little kid, it's one of my all time favourite movies. When I heard about the sequel I literally screamed I happiness lmao
This movie was one of the things that ultimately saved my relationship with my father. I won't go into details, but watching this for the first time as a teenager, I saw a lot of my Dad in Grug, and a lot of myself in Eep. I don't know if I'll ever have the courage to tell him everything that goes through my head when I watch this movie, but I would be lying if I said I didn't feel like crying when I hear "I guess I was just trying to keep everyone alive." "It's okay, it's what dads do."
14:00 I'm DYING. Well done, editor. You rule 🤣🤣
It's literally killing me
As someone who has loved the Croods since I saw the movie in the theater, and as someone who also loves the sequel, I'm really happy you guys made a video of them! I think a lot of people don't appreciate this movie enough, it's really good, funny, and with a very tender heartfelt message 😊 thank you for making this video!
I wonder what Jon and Alan would have to say about The Croods: A New Age. Grug and Guy's bonding session is so hard-hitting, and I love it for that. On a different note, Ryan Reynolds is one of my favorite actors.
this movie always makes me cry because my dad is my best friend but the older I get the more I challenge his opinion while no one else does, as the eldest daughter it's somewhat my responsibility 😂. I just feel like my father doesn't love me anymore especially because I don't spend all of my time with him or do everything he says or I'm not as affectionate. We are all about surviving but we haven't had the chance to live and that has put a strain on our relationship. It hurts but this movie makes me cry reminding me of us...
11:28 - this is one of the reasons I love Cinema Therapy so much. I never would have consciously noticed that, but now that it’s been pointed out I’m just in awe.
The thing I love about CT is the newfound appreciation for the movies I used to love watching just for entertainment
We love that too!
This is one of the few movies I can rewatch because the visual storytelling and the message are stronger than my aversion to repeat experiences. I remember stories so well, I just don’t find value in experiencing a story I already read/watched/played more than once. The Croods is different and well worth rewatching on occasion! (And a lot of other stuff, too, but they are the minority.)
Really hope they do a similar for Manny from Ice Age about his loss & journey in having a family again.
The guy being the family therapist but he's not telling them what to do makes me think of all the things he shows them like the fire and the shoes, it reminds me of a therapist giving you the tools of resources to succeed but again, they aren't telling you how to use them. ❤❤ great video!!
Thank you guys, this is one of my fav movies 💞
You're very welcome!
Jonothan, the whole time you were talking about what you would say to Grug as a therapist, I kept picturing Grug chasing you, going, "Big words anger me!" LOL
I love these videos from you guys so much.
My absolute F.A.V.O.U.R.I.T.E. animated film of ALL time✨
It goes SO far beyond just teaching a good message or two, demonstrating how every central character feels while also not sacrificing the story in the process & making the connections between the characters believable & organic - you feel why Eep & Guy are drawn to each other, you feel the growing sense of wonder the cast gains for the world around them & feel the relief & warmth when Guy & Grug reach an understanding & make peace with one another.
Oh & did I mention the score & ending theme is P.H.E.N.O.M.E.N.A.L.✨👌
SO glad you guys finally covered this film❣️🥹
Thank you for movie therapy, guys. It's nice to cry with you. It helped me to live through a heartbreak and got me familiar with so much beautiful films.
You're very welcome. Hope you're well. ❤️
22:43 You did not just say that!! Some of my favorite animation movies are from them! How to train your dragon (the trilogy), The Croods, The road to El Dorado, Spirit : Stallion of Cimarron, etc.
RIGHT???
We love them too! Maybe not all of them are hits, but some of them are truly great! Here's our Dreamworks playlist in case you've missed any: th-cam.com/play/PLRO9q005b62UfzXBsvqSpP1-lgWa6mWlJ.html
@@CinemaTherapyShow I'm sure you do! I was just really surprise to hear you say that haha!
I have been WAITING for this! Thank you so much guys!
You're welcome! Hope you enjoy it!
@@CinemaTherapyShow This is great. I'd love to see Charlie and the Chocolate factory. There'd be such a lot to look at.
I love this movie and most people I know don’t like it. They thinks it’s a dumb goofy movie about cavemen, which yeah it is a little bit. But it’s also a story of growth, each character changes in their own subtle natural ways and thrives by the end. Like no one ever talks about how the baby went from a literal feral animal growling and snarling, to a cooing child who learns to talk. It’s the little things that make this movie great. It’s HIGHLY underrated in my opinion
I actually spoke with my therapist a little about perspective taking yesterday in regards to helping fix my relationship with my dad. We both agreed that perspective taking could help me immeasurable in helping approach my dad about how what he says affects me without saying it in such a way that he’ll be able to understand it.
I think it would be funny to see a Mr and Mrs Smith video :)
Hearing the squarespace sponsor reminded me that you guys are the only people for whom I will watch ads and usually enjoy them. ❤
Thanks, we try to make them fun!
This is exactly why I will never stop recommending these videos to my friends in need. My curiosity led me to new information that I deeply want to share with those who need it, even if i'm not eloquent enough about it to wrap it in the right packaging to deliver my message.
21:45 I WATCHED THIS FOR YEARS AND JUST GOT IT "what would guild you?"
My favorite part of this movie is when Grug is in the cave drawing his family and then he draws his arms as a circle around them all. Makes me cry every dang time.
Hi there! Just a suggestion because I love both of your thought processes! :D You should check out Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (i personally think its another great and forgotten Dreamworks film)! It's been a childhood favorite of mine and it wraps up almost everything I admire in story-telling. The animation is DROP DEAD GORGEOUS! On a deeper level, as I was growing older, it made me realize much more lessons within like self-fulfilling prophecies.
I can't tell you how long I have waited for this video! These videos makes my day, every day❤
Thanks so much! Glad you like them!
I'm surprised how much depth there was to this movie. I'd seen it years ago as a kid... but now that I'm older it's amazing to think about.
I love that you two did this film, as it was not a film I expected but I'm so happy none the less.
This movie was my childhood, I'm so glad you've done a video on it!
I'm waiting for you to do an episode about Nimona. Lots of cool stuff to unpack in that movie!
I second this!
I third this!
It's coming soon!
Yes!! I fourth this!
This is my favorite family film of all time! Grug reminded me a lot of my own father and unfortunately we're not on good terms anymore. I'm not good at communicating what's inside my head and he just resorts to anger. Thanks for covering this one and I hope you cover the sequel! ❤
So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
That scene with Grug and Eep where they hug always makes me emotional and i always think of my dad
Please consider doing the sequel, it's even better imo with great family dynamics and a healthy relationship between Ip an Guy, and I'd love to hear you guys talk about it!
My sister and I watched this movie a lot when we were little and we loved it. I hadn’t watched it in years but I got into it again a couple of years ago. I had forgotten just how moving and touching it is. It made me cry! Plus the animation is gorgeous and the voice cast is perfect
I can’t believe it took this long to look over The Croods. Such a good movie.
I love when Cinema Therapy uploads
Idk if you did Holes yet, but you should! Disney's Holes with Shia Lebouf
I love this episode. For a long time, all I ever did was hide in the cave and survive due to personal circumstances. It hits hard when we need to evolve because we need to grow and stay improved for good. ❤
omg the speed with which I clicked onto this video... this is unironiocally one of my favorite movies and I recommend it to literally everyone and their mother XD
I liked The Croods as a little kid, but I forgot about it as I got older. Then the pandemic hit and I started watching all the films/shows from my childhood. It was my favorite movie for that first year and a half stuck inside.
Like a lot of people, my mental health declined rapidly during lockdown and I was in a deep depression and had terrible anxiety. I thought the world was going to end or someone I loved wouldn't wake up the next morning. But the themes and mantras in this film helped me through it.
Like when Guy recalls what his parents told him, "Follow the sun. You'll make it to tomorrow." Or when Eep admits her fear to Grug and he tells her "Never be afraid." At a time when I didn't know if I would ever see my friends or family again, I needed to hear that. And I still tell myself that when I need to do something big or intimidating.
Also, the score! The texture of the animation! The relatable but loving family dynamics! The body positivity when Eep takes the heavy comment as a compliment! Yes! Man, I love this film. STILL ALIVE!
As someone named Guy, this episode was very affirming for me
18:45 LITERALLY THIS MORNING 🚌
Oh my gosh, I forgot how much this movie meant to me as a kid. This made me so emotional rewatching it. Thanks to both of you so much for making this review.
You should do a Cinema (Family) Therapy on James and the Giant Peach. It's a wonderful display of a loving, supportive family through the relationship between James and the bugs. Unlike his aunts who regularly insult and berate James (causing him to be quite fearful and have very low self-esteem in the first half of the movie), all of the bugs show him unwavering love and support: encouraging his ideas, praising him when he succeeds, and providing comfort when he's sad.
Yes, the film does have random events that pop up out of nowhere and don't really make a lot of sense, the found family dynamic amongst James and the bugs, in my opinion, make it worth watching. Besides, the movie is based on a book by Roald Dahl, so some unexplainable weirdness is to be expected. 😆
It would be great to hear your thoughts on it! 🥰
Love Cinema Therapy!!!
Listen to you guys all day at work❤😅
Wow, thanks so much!
I recently watched The Croods again and sobbed through the good-bye scene especially with the hug because I can't have that anymore. My dad and I butted heads a lot especially since I've been an adult, but I'd love one last hug.
I like how saying "What would Gai do" rhymes with "What would I do" because then the smooth transition between each lines makes the moment more impactful
Can honestly say this is my comfort movie. I could never get tired of watching it.
might I suggest talking about the movie wolf walkers, it is my favorite animated movie and it has potential for a good episode
Oh I'd LOVE to see them do wolfwalkers!!
I remember seeing the Croods as a little kid. I think its one of the reason I know love anthropology and archeology. It sparks so much curiosity of the past, and the future. Lovely movie, definitely need to rewatch it.
Survival Mode vs. Growth Mode
And I think it is also worth noting that it's a balance between the two. Guy is more progressed than Eep's family because he is in tune with both his Growth mode and Survival mode, aka balanced.
My mom wouldn't take me to go see The Croods in theaters (despite me asking after seeing the trailer) because she thought it was just a stupid potty-humor type kids movie and didn't want to pay money to see it. When I finally saw it a quite a few years later on my own, I *LOVED* it. I've struggled with both my parents the most out of me and my siblings, and I'm kind of considered the black sheep of the family since I'm the only LGBTQIA+ one in the entire extended family (that's known/out, at least). At the time I saw this movie, I was clashing with my dad terribly, and I bawled my eyes out because I really wanted a scene like in the ending. I'm doing a little bit better with my parents now years later as an adult, but we still have a lot of conflict. I still love this movie so much. Thank you for covering it.
Notice how he said beautiful tiger, not just any tiger, but beautiful- initial attraction! he finds her pretty attractive☺☺☺
*In my best Alan* "Damn you, cinema therapy!"
I need to know if somehow we can translate the subs in this one. My moms LOVES this movie and I want SO HARD to show this to her.
Ask chatgpt "Can I translate cc subtitles of a TH-cam video not on my channel?"
@@alexandrugheorghe5610ChatGPT is neither a search engine nor a translation tool. AI does both those things poorly anyway.
This movie was such a huge influence of my childhood! I love the designs of the creatures and how each family member is an animal (also the textures in the animation OH MY GOD). The message is so beautiful and it honestly taught me how tribalism works. Grug is so much like my father minus the glasses, and Im somewhat like Eep. We haven't reached the point that they are at the end of the movie and honestly I don't know if we ever will. But I can thank this movie for how open I am to hearing new people's stories and how curious I am of the world I haven't seen yet, also my obsession with the buff woman/thin snarky man dynamic. I remember wanting an Owlbear of my own for YEARS (still do).
18:47 I never ran in the street but I did try to hug a literal bear when I was 5
Can I pet that dawg
Amazing episode. Also very well put that people should reognise each other's intentions, and not only look at other's behaviour. Sometimes people may behave badly, but that doesn't make them a bad person, or make the motivations for those behaviours bad. If you're struggling with loved ones because of a bad behaviour, I think it is important to open up and empathise, and give your loved ones the chance to express their intentions, and show them respect for being a person who cares and loves you.
I love how I immediately heard it's Silvestri and Alan confirms. That string part is straight out of Back to the Future part III when Clara is making her way to Emmett along the side of the train.
