Went to high school with the director - was in band and AP English with him. He was a big Monty Python fan, which you can see in the bar scene in Tangled.
all the songs! I usually have one song, two tops from each movie I like, but Encanto, I just love all of them!
Have you thought about watching hazbin hotel
I had to ban "we don't talk about bruno" in my house coz one of the kids would whisper the line and it would set everyone off singing. Fun but once it was happening ten times a day, just everyone singing the same song over and over, it became too much lol. It's definitely an earworm.
We don't talk about Bruno it was the most stucked 😁
There’s a pretty popular theory as to why Mirabel didn’t get a gift, a lot of people think it’s because she will take over for Abuela when she passes away. Mirabel will become the the new keeper of the miracle because Abuela doesn’t have a gift. Also if you noticed Mirabel and Abuela are the only ones who can directly communicate with the house they both have a special connection to the house. I think it’s a pretty cool theory and definitely makes sense :)
I haven't seen this one before.. I'm with it. 100%! Makes more sense then the cousin that hears everything being the evil one.
The other theory I've seen that Super Carlin Brothers talked about was that she did get a gift but it was the gift to shift reality, and she doesn't know she has it, so she in her gear of letting her family down made herself not get a door and so on.
I prefer the candle keeper theory though.
Interesting, I thought that was an obvious conclusion at the end of the movie. Didn’t know it was a theory.
@@melindamercier6811 I’m not sure if it was ever confirmed even if I think it’s an obvious conclusion so that’s why I called it a theory
Exactly been saying that from the start.
Generational Trauma was the villain the whole time.
As it is in real life most of the time
My (adult) daughter identified that immediately. Her paternal grandparents were Holocaust survivors and she's definitely sensitive to that.
expect its not a real thing
@@macdaddy1376 You are in denial. It's ok. LoL
“It seems like he (Antonio) had a love for animals… did Mirabel not have a love for something?” I think you nailed it. Her love was for her family, that is why the candle chose her to be the next Keeper of the miracle/candle.
So Camilo just loved being someone else.
@@Serryy My guess is that he loved pranks and disguises.
@@Serryy sounds kind of sad when you put it like that
Her thing was embroidery if you look at her clothes and her gift to Antonio. She was the thread that held the family together. Every time her heart broke deeply, the house cracked.
I still love that Luisa surprised the Disney execs by being the main favorite for little girls to admire and want to be like.
Soooo true! When she watched the movie, my little niece started walking with her arms up "showing her Luisa muscles" 😂
I read somewhere that some people working on the movie had to fight for her to be made the way she is.
I can't blame them, she's my favorite, too.
She's my daughter's favorite!
They also made a bunch of Isabella dolls too; expecting her to be the one everyone wanted only to have to scramble to produce more of Luisa when stores were selling out of her and not Isabella.
The ending reveals Mirabel's true gift: the miracle itself. She keeps her family's gifts alive and helps them flourish despite not having tangible powers. When she helps Isabela accept herself, the cracks in Casita heal and her sister discovers new abilities.
Yeah they even use the line "the miracle is you" at the end. It's pretty heavily implies the miracle isn't something given to the family, the miracle is the true love and bonds of family.
I've always thought it was a simple case of wrong door. Mirabel's door was always the front door.
Yes, she’s the heart of the family.
She was also the only one who saw the person first, not the gift.
I think it's because her perception of and place in the community wasn't about a gift.
The miracle was born out of love, and she loved her family for who they were, not what gift they had.
Sometimes background support is the most important role.
I got my mom to watch this and it helped her realize how tough she's been on all her children. This movie was the first step to healing for us.
that's wonderful
That's great
Just wanted to add that Abuela's backstory of fleeing during civil unrest was based on real Colombian history where many Colombians had to flee their villages and homes during the civil war to try find a new place to live, a journey many did not survive. Some descendants of those refugees have spoken up about their appreciation for this movie and how moving it was to see an honest and respectful representation of their real life history shown in a mainstream movie.
And something very few people have pointed out, this movie is set 50 years later. And 50 years after the first flair up of these troubles they started heating up again. Abuela was right to be so worried. The very danger that took her husband was starting up again.
@@suchendelokidottir5673 in the self sufficient encanto i doubt they knew that
but the theme of an event causing generation trauma is based on those events even if the second one isn't mentioned at all
@@theirishviking9278 it's kind of like wakanda in a way. i bet there are refugees outside of it that would feel abandoned if they knew about this place
Pepa is my favourite character from the movie. Imagine being told your whole life you have to hide your feelings because they inconvenience everyone. The poor woman must have been so mentally exhausted. The only one encouraging her to feel is her husband, their love is so inspiring.
Don't have to imagine it, I lived it. Yes. It is exhausting. And leads to depression, burnout and anxiety disorder. 🥴 I FEEL for her.
My favorite is Felix because he never hesitates to step into the rain and storm with her 🥰. I would love to see a mini about their love story.
First, sorry for my broken english, hope you can understand what i meant :D.
Everyone focuses on bruno mirabel isabela and luisa bcs they had their own songs but the pepa's side of family also have their own struggles. Pepa always needs to be happy, she cant feel other emotions. She has to be smile everytime and actually there are people out there who is like her. Always try to be happy and forced to be happy. Also camilo has struggles with his identity. In this film they didnt focused on this but he also tries to find who really he is (at least, it's a cool theory and not nonsense at all). And dolores can hear everything, but nobody really listens her. You know there are people who always listens everyone's problems and secrets buy nobody really listens their problems, dolores is here for to represent them. Julieta also helps everyone without expecting anything from them. Similar to luisa, she has no time for rest. Always try to make everyone better and not focusing on herself. I think this movie needs a sequal to focus on these characters too since they have a lot of potential.
“Pretty sure that’s the dog from Harry Potter”
Cerberus, guard dog of the underworld in Greek mythology: Am I a joke to you
I laughed because the song literally mentions Hercules fighting Cerberus in the line. Harry Potter took inspiration, so I get why their mind went there though.
i wonder if they'll ever get around watching the pjo series
@@ms-literary6320 Inspiration probably isnt the right word, more like they used the myth itself. After all we see a lot of mythological creatures in harry potter. Particularly ones from England, Rome and Greece
i hope not that show was horrible @@lilbrownbear
@@bunningssnags6104 they do use him as a guard dog, that’s true. Just not of the underworld that time :) A pretty direct inspiration 😉
It took me until now to realize that Isabella and Mariano look a LOT like Abuela and Abuelo. I wonder if that was why Isabella was so much deemed the perfect one and why Abuela needed them to be married so badly. So she could vicariously live the life that was taken from her through them.
That is also why in Bruno's new vision that they think that Mirabel has to hug Isabella but it was really Abuela because she is basically a copy of her when she was younger!
Daaaang...... Never noticed that. Crap, that puts a heavier twist on that whole plot line 😭
Also something I realized is that a lot of their names have a double meaning. If you say it slowly, “Isabella” sounds like “Is Abuela”
No joke, I fully believe Oak could lift a donkey/mule like in the thumbnail. 💜
I wouldn't be surprised.
Yeah 😎
I’m down for giving it a shot!!! -Oak
donkeys can weigh up to 1000 pounds and more 😅
@@davidbaye3758 ok definitely DO! And give us a photo in the community tab 🤣❤️
There’s a line in the song Surface Pressure where Luisa says, “I’m pretty sure I’m worthless, if I can’t be of service.” It breaks my heart every time I hear it.
It took me well into adulthood to realize that this was the pressure my older sister was under and I wish she had been allowed to be a kid.
That's exactly that and Luisa isn't even the elder
That line hit hard for me. As the older sister/Luisa in my family, I’m sure your sister would really appreciate hearing that from you. Feeling like you have no value, or even existence, outside of what you can do for people is a hard thing to shake even once you know why it’s there.
@@QueenOfTheZombieApocalypse I don't get it, you're the older sister or the middle child ? Because Luisa is the middle child.
Me too, I recognize myself more in Mirabel because I'm autistic but I'm also the oldest sister so the pressure is double because the eldest is supposed to be an example for the siblings and I don't really fit the model
I have a similar experience!
My older sister was completely obsessed with the film and mostly Surface Pressure back in late-2021 and early-2022, and it never clicked to me until a few weeks ago how she must have been feeling during those months (she was the main financial support of our family since COVID) and it shattered my heart to realize and confirm that she related so much to Luisa, the pressure and carrying the weight of the world in her shoulders.
Many therapists have reacted to this movie and spoken about the inter-generational trauma this family had because of the war that killed Abuelo. Someone needed to bring the trauma to life and Mirabel had the bravery to speak up to Abuela, showing everyone the cracks in the family. The house was merely a representation of the family and when Mirabel got the door knob, she was able to bring the family together. I honestly believe her door was the house's... to open the family's hearts to each other. Her giftS (plural) were compassion, kindness, respect for others, and her love of family. "Dos Oruguitas" represents transformation as do the butterflies at the end. Mirabel's skirt is adorned with butterflies, she wears a butterfly, and saw them when they weren't even there. Transformation! A beautiful movie I have watched two dozen times already and could watch another two dozen, easily. Thanks for the reaction!
I recall Cinema Therapy’s Jonathan mentioning that. It’s a very interesting and kind of thought provoking idea.
@@ceougin20A Cinema Therapy mention in a Badd Medicine video? These must be my people! 😍
The butterfly was also seen when Bruno had his vision with Mirabel 27:16 They followed the butterfly in his vision to find an answer- it showed the Candle, and Isabela. She also had her transformation thanks to Mirabel, and they mended their bond as sisters, like how the family mended their bonds. The butterfly was transformation, and in the vision was their guiding light.
Am I an almost 24 yo dude about to cry to Encanto...again...absolutely.
I'm not crying, you are.. sniffle...
Ending hits me every time. 😆
Every time
Dos Origuitos always work on me too.
@@mirofeyaThat and when Antoñio says “I need you” and she walk him to his door 😢
I love how Mirabel's desires in the "Waiting for a Miracle" song came to pass.
"I would move the mountains" -- the fight with Abuela broke them
"Make new trees and flowers grow" -- by triggering Isabela's confession, which also ties in with the vision Isabela received from Bruno (getting the life of her dreams [being free of the expectation of perfection] and her powers expanding)
"I would heal what's broken" -- meaning the family
"Show this family something new" -- that having a magical gift isn't necessary to effect change
Lin-Manuel Miranda knew what he was doing with these songs.
LMM is a genius!! The way he plays with musical and lyrical motifs is amazing.
I just thought of it as clever songwriting. You made some valid points. I never noticed that before. At least, not until you commented on the song. And I love your point of view! It makes so much sense!
WAIT! Youre so right wtf
Remember, Abuela didnt have a gift either. She was the foundation. Its now been passed to Mirabel!
THIS IS THE COMMENT💯💯💯
When I learned Mirabel was played by Stephanie Beatriz, as someone who watches a lot of Brooklyn 99, I couldn’t believe she was the same person as first. She killed it as the lead in this movie
She actually speaks more like Mirabel in real life than Rosa lol. 😂
Yeah she has insane voice modulation /control in b99 😄
She's also the VA for Vaggie in Hazbin Hotel over on Amazon.
the fact that shes now also vaggie in hazbin hotel is making me laugh so hard its awesome
@@fizgig76 And Lady Kima in Legend of Vox Machina
Fun factoid for the group: Encanto was a sleeper hit. It aired, no one really watched it and execs all thought girls would love the flower sister or etc and made lots of girly encanto toys. Then families started watching it, kids starting singing it, and Luisa was the fan favorite, manufacturers were scrambling trying to make Luisa and Bruno toys asap to capitalize on it. Then it really exploded, the music, and became a hit, selling out toys left and right. I was with my niece during the pandemic and right in the middle of it. I was visiting in South America, where I'm from and brought tons of Encanto toys for my niece and had to split them between her and her little friends because everyone was starstruck at the toys only available in the US at first lol. "Nielsen estimated that Encanto was the most-watched film of 2022 with 27.4 billion minutes viewed; approximately 269 million complete showings."
Disney dropped the ball regarding the donkeys - but I did get the plushie capybara!
One thing that SHOULD be talked about is how authentic this film is. I’m Colombian and the representation is crazy. The Indigenousness,Afrocentrism and Eurocentrism of the characters in animated form brings tears to my eyes everytime I watch this!
En Barranquilla tenemos un carnival sobre eso.
The song Dos Oruguitas (Two Caterpillars) was so beautiful with the visual storytelling. Every time I hear it, it makes me tear up
Same!
Right??? I’m so mad at Abuela, but I can’t help but cry at her story
I do hate that there’s a translation error, come on, it’s Disney! They should have done better
Same here
My favorite part was Quinn thinking Mirabel had superspeed ahahahhaa 🥰🥰
my theory is that mirabels's door vanished to become Casita's door. Casita responds to Mirabel and to Abuela, both "dont have gifts".
Me watching the Aladdin Remake thinking they gave Jasmine powers for a hot second xD
The prophecy was that an embrace with Isabella would ignite the candle. That came true as the spark for the real Family issues to come to the surface to be faced properly.
Just like the broken prophecy this one has a double meaning; Isabella does look a lot like young Alma; and Alma had to go back to her past to reconcile with Mirabel
I thought about that Isabela was the only one left in her own immediate family that Mirabel hadn't had a talk with and opened up about her "mental health" so she needed to settle that before tackling the last one of them that desperately needed a hug. Basically what you said, but I came at it from a different perspective 😅
the embrace kinda did ignite the candle as only then it started to burn up, decreasing the magic.
makes you wonder if Mirabel didn’t make up with Isabella if the family would break apart even more and more with the candle staying in its eternal state forever (first breaking the family apart, then the whole town, the country and finally into a war
Fun fact about the river where Mirabel and abuela hugged at the end. There is river in Columbia called Caño Cristales is often called “the river of five colours” or the “liquid rainbow”, and according to local legend, it escaped paradise to flow through the Earth.
*Colombia
A way to remember it is that the U niversity has a U Columbia, the country is two Os Colombia.
Fun fact, Mirabel is the first Disney female protagonist to have glasses. As a woman in my 20s who has worn glasses majority of my life I didn’t realize how much that small representation mattered till I watched it for the first time.
Lin Manuel Miranda, had said he wrote Luisa‘s song, Surface Pressure , as an homage and apology to his oldest sister who had to deal with the burdens and pressures of being the oldest. Also, I think the songs work here because they are written like they would be as part of a Broadway Show. This is such an amazing film and great exploration of generational trauma.
This movie hit hard the first time. When Luisa started to sing, it resonated with my soul and I just cried. The pressure I had from my family when my dad died, with taking care of his estate and how It seemed I was the only one who mourned his passing was so stressful. Luisas song was exacly what I was feeling. I can watch it now without problems but the first time... dang...
What always makes me emotional is the line in We Don’t Talk About Bruno where Isabela sings that Bruno told her that, “the life of my dreams would be promised and someday be mine.” When we first hear that line, we, like Mirabel (and probably Isabela herself) think that life what she’s currently experiencing-a future engagement, everyone thinking she’s perfect, etc. But finding out she’s been performing perfection because of Abuela’s expectations gives that line whole new meaning. Bruno was telling Isabela that what SHE WANTED, the life of HER DREAMS, not Abuela’s, would come true.
Every time I think Oak isn't enjoying a film or doesn't understand it...he surprises me. He's carefully taking everything in. Love the reactions💚💚💚
some cute things to notice are that mirabel's mom's magic literally brings the whole statement, "A mother's cooking has the ability to heal both body and soul" to another light. And that since mirabel's father is accident prone, he must have been aided by mirabel's mother a lot, which makes sense why they both fell in love and got married.
Since he's dressed all "city style", I like to think that he was studying to be a doctor. Once Julietta got her Gift, however, she had all the healing locked up... but he's still needed for other things, since not even Julietta can heal aging or fix poor eyesight, making them more of a tag-team partnership :)
@@SilentSooYunthe creators of the movie actually clarified that julietta CAN heal eyesight but mirabel and augustín chose to keep it that way
The symbolism in every facet of this movie is incredible.
Right down to the donkeys that Luisa is always carrying and who play a part in her song about pressure. Historically, and still in lots of places, donkeys are 'pack mules'. We pile every weight on them and they just comply and carry it all, diligently working away. Which is essentially Luisa's entire storyline and character struggle, is the crushing weight of feeling like she HAS to carry everything simply because it's expected. And she's so strong, so people just continuously pile on more, not realizing that they're suffocating who she really is.
And I could delve that deep into SO MUCH of this movie, the symbolism is crazy. The song lyrics, the imagery during the songs, everything.
Another easy example is Isabella's pressure for perfection/her want to release herself and be free + her power being a very aesthetically pleasing, visual representation of that. But nature can also be wild and crazy, and that's also perfect and beautiful.
Etc, etc, etc.
This movie is just incredible on so many levels.
You actually see the repression of Isabella's personality when they're talking about Mariano's proposal. When the flowers pop out on her hair Abuela plucks the one that's different and throws it away as if it offends her. There was nothing wrong with the flower except that the color was different from the others.
Oh wow, I remember that scene and the look on her face, but I hadn't noticed the specifics of Abuela's 'primping' of Isabella lol. 🤔 Intriguing.
I grew up with unachievable Disney princess role models starting with passive Snow White and Sleeping Beauty (I’m 68 years old) and for me, Encanto is Disney animation’s coming-of-age. It’s emotionally genuine, inclusive, culturally respectful, and most surprisingly it doesn’t shy away from showing a real, historical horror: the death of Abuela’s husband at the hands of hands of a faceless militia. I appreciated the way Abuela tried to soften the story of her “loss” when she related that moment to young Mirabel at the beginning of the film. It’s left to Mirabel to “finally see” the terror that made her grandmother so unbending; and for Abuela to accept consolation.
Fun fact: Stephanie Beatriz was in labour while singing "waiting on a miracle". She gave birth just a few hours after finnishing the reccording.
Mirabel's gift is to bring the family together. She doesn't need magic for that. She allowed everyone to be true to themselves by listening and being there. So in a way, she is the miracle.
That's actually dangerous, pregnant women shouldn't sing with full force of their voice which she does use. x_x
@@AmberyTear the fact that she's working while in labour is insane in the first place.
I watched this with my family one night just to pass some time and chill with them. I had no expectations whatsoever. After a few beers and towards the middle of the movie, the themes of not fitting in and not feeling important really started to get to me and I ended up sobbing. This movie is beautiful and I really loved it.
Mirabel: **finds the green glowing shards**
Answer: "Kryptonite?"
Mason: "Triforce?"
Me: **smiles, knowing I've found my people**
My favorite thing about this movie is that Mirabel does everything she said she would do in her solo through helping her family.
"Give it to your sister, your sister's older. Give her all the heavy things we can't shoulder"
"Give it to your sister it doesn't hurt and, see if she can handle every family burden"
"Who am I if I can't carry it all?" Are the lyrics that will always stick with me
Man I love this movie! I don’t even have kids. I randomly watched it one day when I was hungover and fell in love with it.- 30 year old black guy from Detroit
In Colombia at the time when Abuela and her husband were younger and their babies were born they had to flee their home! This is a real event that happened in Colombia called, “La Violencia” (The Violence)! La Violencia was a ten-year civil war in Colombia from 1948 to 1958, between the Colombian Conservative Party and the Colombian Liberal Party, fought mainly in the countryside. La Violencia is estimated to have cost the lives of at least 200,000 people, almost 2% of the population of the country at the time.😢🇨🇴
Did anyone notice how many of the powers would be great for defense if they were attacked again?
Camillo the shapeshifter could be a spy or assassin. The aunt could sweep them away with a force 5 hurricane. The cousin could hear their battle plans. The mom could heal anyone injured. So many others!
Plus Antonio could get the animals to communicate with to spy on enemies or attack and Bruno could envision the future battle and what to prepare for or avoid
And Luisa for strength, of course!
and Isabella to plant crops and keep everyone fed
@@dreamingofmagic or block the enemy with huge hedge bushes 😂
Generational trauma plays a big role in this film. Abuela experienced trauma when she lost her husband, and she didn't have the professional help she really needed to be able to deal with that, so she internalized everything, and projected the pressure she felt to upkeep the miracle Pedro sacrificed himself for onto her children and her grandchildren.
Abuela really lost sight of the true miracle that was her family, and only valued them for what they could contribute. Personally, I find this very relatable within my own family dynamic. I've had to be a caretaker for my dad during and after college because he has a TBI from a car accident, and I got incredibly burnt out from trying to keep it together. Last year, right before I turned 30, I finally became aware that part of the reason I had been struggling so much was that I had been dealing with undiagnosed ADHD for many years, so I had to force my mind into a box it didn't fit in, and I was running on anxiety on a daily basis. This led to depression and burnout because that was unsustainable, so my coping mechanisms ran out.
And now on top of that, my dad reminds me of Abuela because I haven't had stable employment due to caring for him and caring for myself over the past decade, and despite doing all of the housework and caring for two dogs because my mom works full time, all he cares about is my ability to contribute money to the household, and his favorite hobby is reminding me that without a job, I have no value, so I relate to Luisa a lot. In "Surface Pressure," she sings the line "I'm pretty sure I'm worthless if I can't be of service." For me, my service isn't even worth anything. My mom downplays how much I do, so it never feels like what I do is enough, and then I have to contribute money to have value in my dad's eyes.
To be completely honest with you... It hurts. And I feel an immense amount of pressure on my shoulders.
From my perspective, the most fictional part of this movie is Mirabel getting an apology for the way she was treated, because I know I'll never get that.
Similarly, while I'm sure Disney Princess movies aren't any of you gentlemen's preferred genres, I relate the most to Mulan, Pocahontas, and Moana, because they don't fit their societies' expectations of them, and they each have to go on a journey of self-discovery to realize who they are and recognize their own strengths. I think it would be interesting to see you react to any of those films, and how these young women go against the grain to find their paths in life. (Side note: If you happen to react to Mulan, the original animated version has a better and stronger message, and stronger visuals.)
🫂
As someone who has been where you are, I am so sorry. No one should have to deal with it all, certainly not alone. You're amazing for having done what you have. Take care.
Hope you are doing ok now!!!! Hang on!!! And take care of yourself, you matter and your worth shouldn't be determined by others, You are valuable because you are, not what you give!
You can also notice that Abuela's reaction to her husband's last moments was shown differently in the intro where she was telling the story, and in the flashback. In the intro, she was sad as if she was holding back in telling her side, but in the flashback we can see her anguish.
Her gift if she is the glue that keeps them a happy family. She mended all their cracks. Their insecurities. The house is only as strong as they are as a family.
Dos oruguitas is such a beautiful song. The translation doesn't it make it justice, IMHO. I'm glad you guys are finally going to cry with us, I mean, watch with us 😂
Not only that, but it has a translation mistake, did you catch it? I was so annoyed 😒
It was the hug with isabella. She needed to bond with her to have the argument with abuela that led to their reconciliation and realisation that the gifts weren't the most important thing that it was family
This film was big for Colombia for finally getting an animated film about them. From the way the characters dressed (Vueltiao hats, ruanas, wayuu mochilas, chapoleras, etc.etc.) to the foods and bakery goods they ate (pandebonos, Colombian Buñuelos, ajiaco, arepas con queso, etc.etc.) to the inspired locations and surroundings (Cartagena, Santander Department, Palma de Cera trees or Caño Cristales which is where Abuela Alma and Mirabel embraced) all the way down to the music, instruments, animals and the way they speak (Cumbia, Champeta, Colombian Salsa, Vallenato/Accordion, Tiple/Chiguiros, Tapirs, etc.etc.). Even most of the voice-actors in some way shape or form have Colombian in them and even the Spanish dub itself are all voiced by Colombian-born actresses and actors which is rare for an American film to even do. There's a ton of details to spot and obviously Colombians will be able to point them out but one of my favorite details was how they referenced events, both good and bad. In the film's introduction song you see men with silleteros surrounding Isabella which is referencing Feria de Las Flores, which is the flower festival held in Medellin, Colombia. When the family was dancing champeta in Antonio's room, I believe they were referencing Carnaval de Barranquilla which is an explosive, over-the-top music festival that usually lasts the whole Weekend or an extra day or two (don't quote me on this one, I've never been) and takes place in Barranquilla, Colombia. Obviously, there's the bad referenced event that took place between 1899 and 1902 known as The Thousand Days' War which was where Abuelo Pedro was murdered. This event, in a way, confirms that the story of Encanto takes place perhaps in the 1950s in the mountains near Caño Cristales. There's also another war that people in the comment section usually reference they think might be the actual war taking place in Abuela Alma's past but I can't quite put my finger on it. Either way, the mountains are cracked now which leaves for many, many ideas for a nice sequel and so many other things to reference and explore. Glad you guys reacted to this film!
The house did not give her a gift because it knew it was dying. It needed her to save it. Giving her a gift would shift her focus elsewhere, like the rest of the family. It's also what Bruno saw in his visions.
As soon as Abuela finds Mirabel by the river I cry. Every. Single. Time 😢
Me and my sisters talked once about how our parents unintentionally put us into boxes as 1. The academic one 2. The sporty one 3. The creative one. On one hand, I think they were trying to celebrate our unique qualities. But it also hurt because of the expectations and restrictions that came with that, and stoked some jealousy between us as well. Personally, as the “creative one”, I struggled with feeling too dumb or too weak, and sometimes I wondered if I was even creative enough or if “creative” was just a nice way of calling me weird. I love my parents and I don’t blame them at all for this because I doubt they had any idea what was happening, it was just that the little comments and actions added up over time and all us us ended up having some insecurity over that.. Mirabel and her sisters really connected with me because of all this. Plus the songs are bangers, so this is def one of my favorite Disney movies.
I'm sure someone mentioned this along the way, but Lin Manuel Miranda wrote all the songs in _Encanto_ . LMM wrote _In the Heights_ , _Hamilton_ , and directed _Tick, Tick... BOOM_ ! He also wrote a song for _Moana_ and other Disney movies. Genius!
YES! So glad they ended up doing a Hamilton watch 😁❤️
They should watch Moana! Also LMM.
I saw a lot of people saying they were disappointed that Mirabel didn’t turn out to be a villain because of all the issues she had with Abuela because she didn’t get a gift, but I personally REALLY liked the fact that we had a family movie. Just a heartwarming and relatable movie. I grew with siblings, so we all sort of related at some point in the movie, and even my big brother who usually would laugh at us for watching this, watched it and pointed out the moments he related.
This movie’s really great. I’m 21, but I’ll never get tired of Disney movies. Theyre always a good time
I hate when people say that this movie needs a villain
@Dora-xi5ob I agree not every film needs a villain.
As a South American with a great-great grandmother who founded a town and a large family that includes a beautiful cousin named Isabella that looks almost identical to the one in the movie, this film felt eerily accurate 😂
Surface Pressure and the lyrics were my favorite of the entire movie. They actually created a new hair physics engine to do this movie justice as well. "Encanto" made history as the first Disney animated movie to represent the full range of hair textures, from 1A to 4C. This movie can be summed up in two shots, the "perfect" family photo in the jungle room at the start of the movie vs the imperfect family photo at the end where everyone is just free to be themselves.
This movie has SO MANY good characters. There's so many little things that are relatable to audiences with each one, how we feel or perceive others. Masking feelings, carrying the heavy burdens, trying to fix everyone, just all of it. I especially love Felix when he supports his wife Pepa ("I'm doing my best!" "Yes!") or gives Antonio the thumbs up at the breakfast table and Agustin checking in on his daughters and his line against Abuela ("I was thinking about my daughter!").
Oak is very right about the movie probably hitting harder for those of us with generational trauma. Great observation!
Also I think that this movie is beautifully catered to women and girls, and the generational trauma we bear. Not to say that men can't see themselves in this movie, obviously, but it is pretty female-centric, which feels like such a gift ❤
I absolutely LOVE that they show the generational trauma from BOTH sides!
It could easily have been the mean old grandmother that needed to be taught a lesson. But instead they show us how a wish to protect, can become stifling and imprisoning, if it doesnt evolve with the new generations and changing times. And how the younger generations also need to understand that the family issues can be rooted in trauma that the older generation went through.
Pretty profound for a "kids movie" ❤
(And just to be clear: I'm not saying that everything is forgivable, but I do think it helps, if you know what trauma brought about the unwanted behaviors /family dynamics).
I cant explain how much this story healed me. I cried and laughed and felt SO seen and heard. I can only try to imagine how impactful it must be people with Latin family roots!
I still cry healing tears when I watch it, and I have watched it many times now. Lin Manuel Miranda did SO well with the songs, and the voice actors sing them so well. ❤
I literally yelled "YES!" out loud when I saw this appear on my TH-cam home screen. Glad I work from home....
Having almost just as big of a family makes this film hit harder for me.
As the red-headed stepchild, black sheep and unintentional ne'er-do-well of my family, this one hits me harder than even Coco did. That emotional gut punch (for me) is in the lyrics of Louisa's song "Surface Pressure," which is consequently permanently embedded on my gym playlist.
This is the only movie that makes me cry EVERY SINGLE TIME without fail. I don't directly relate to the story but the family connection just tugs on my heartstrings.
The butterfly scene where Abuela tells her backstory always gets me the most. How she endured so much, that became a reason for her cold and hard persona later on. The understanding when they realize they need to see through each other's perspective and Abuela finally realizing that everyone is hurting without her really noticing or caring. She was so blinded by keeping the miracle burning which ironically led to it's light eventually dying.
Love the fact that she is the glue that keeps the family together. With mom’s family being the “big family”, it’s a little difficult to recognize it. But with dad’s side have a smaller side. I’ve got the older side that the “perfect” older sister, myself (the forgotten middle child/only boy) and my cousin being “the baby that everyone protects.”
I always liked the theory of Casita gifting Mirabel a part of the Encanto magic to keep it safe. In case they needed it. So when the door disappeared, the magic went into Mirabel. And they ended up needing it. Mirabel could give that part of the magic back to Casita, bringing it back to life. A little like Yue in ATLA, how she had a part of the moon spirit in her and could give it back when the spirit needed it.
Encanto!!! Thank you guys!! I’m Colombian. Growing up in a country in constant civil war with all that it means, I heard from a very young age how to people had to flee their home to survive and I know it’s something not all people understand. So when this movie came out I was crying so hard the first 5 minutes because it felt so close to home. We heard those sad stories everyday and to see how Disney not only referred that part of our history but really put a lot of things in the movie like the landscapes, the toys, the food, the diversity of my country, and all the struggles the families went through even years after that happened, it really made my heart happy. It’s a beautiful movie.
Did you read what I wrote? I never said that I hate the movie.
So, I interpreted the ending to mean that Mirabel is the new Matriarch of the gift - and when Abuela passes, will be the Matriarch of the family. I think that was her gift, her role the entire time... the miracle saw how kind, caring, giving, and humble she was and chose her to be the next holder of the candle/cornerstone of the miracle.
I 100% subscribe to the theory that Mirabel doesn't get a room because she will take Abuela's when she passes away and be the next matriarch of the family. That is her gift - being a shepherd.
I loved the scenes where they show the story of the grandparents the first time I watched the film, and I understood most of it, but then I read up on the Spanish lyrics to the song and the visuals together with the lyrics and not having to try and follow subtitles just tears me apart every time now. Hits me right in the feels 🥺
It's not Disney, but y'all should watch Horton Hears A Who! Jim Carrey and Steve Carrell had me cracking up!
Totally agree!❤
Or now that you bring up Jim Carrey... Lemony Snicket's A series of unfortunate events? :)
As a Latina, who lives in Latin America, this film meant a lot to me, i sobbed while watching it in the theater. This kind of generational trauma is so common in our families… we’re so used to hiding our problems, sweeping everything under the rug… and when you don’t fit in your family you’re shunned, often talked about why you’re different, why you aren’t like the rest… I related to Luisa, Bruno, and Mirabel the most. It still makes me cry specially during Dos Oruguitas, and the second song, Luisa’s song makes me teary eyed.
I love that theres been a change in western animated films that talk more about actual problems. You should watch Pixar’s Onward.
"Your gift will be every bit as special as you" a well meaning phrase, but also implies that if you have no gift you are not special.
This was my first time seeing a perfirmance by Mirabel's voice actor outside of Brooklyn 99, where she plays a completely tonally opposite character. The range on her was totally unexpected to me, I didn't even recognize her voice, but great.
If you notice, the Encanto responds directly to Mirabel's anguish since the very first cracks. If it was born out of a man's love for his family, it was dying when she felt no love or otherwise outcasted from that family, all the doing of abuela.
Her unending need for order and appearances is seen even in the small way she dismisses the youngest's attempt at helping ("I told them to warm the seat for you!" "We'll find a more productive use for your power soon"). Even Bruno, who was one of the triplets that Mirabel's grandfather died to protect, was outcasted from the family in spite of how dearly he missed them and was missed. In trying to protect her family and encouraging them to completely ignore themselves for the sake of others, she completely missed the point of that first sacrifice.
There's a theory that Mirabel didn't get a door/gift because she's the next Matriarch like her abuela. The entire house is her "room" and she'll take over her grandmother's room when it's time. She does have a gift it's just not as obvious, she strengthens her families gifts, like with Isabela, learning new things she can create with her power. Also her connection with each family member individually is strong, ( at least especially by the end,) and her connection to the house is too, keeping everyone together and in communication with each other, like her abuela most likely was before she started to push too hard, or what she was trying to be; just going about it wrong. Also when both abuela and Mirabel are fighting is when the house completely collapses. Before abuela was slowly wearing the miracle and house down, while Mirabel was making it stronger, in the end the both of them pushing each other away was what destroyed it.
Some of y'alls thumbnails are just magnificent! 💜
Their intro is so good I say it in my everyday life 😭🤦🏾♀️ 0:03
🤜🤛😁
One of my favourite parts too :)
This movie makes me cry every single time! As an older sister, I always felt like I had to be strong to comfort my parents and my brother, and I felt like they relied on me to handle their problems. But then you get to the part where Luisa says, "Give it to your sister, it doesn't hurt her, see if she can handle every family burden," and the house literally falls on her back and crushes her! It's just so real, and my heart just breaks every time I watch it.
Same for me (I'm the older sister too) but I'm autistic so I'm not really the kind of example my three sisters want to follow.
My parents are like Mirabel's but my sisters don't really understand (the two last don't even try to be nice with me).
Little rectification, Luisa is the middle child not the eldest.
In the french version, she says " Let your big sister carrying the weight of your heart "
I love how this movie focuses on the importance of mental health with Luisa. Next to Hamilton, this is my favorite Lin-Manuel Miranda creation. The song "Dos Origitas" is so beautiful, it makes me cry every time.
I’m sorry, but it’s “Oruguitas”
This family trauma is based on a fairly recent history in Colombia. (I did a little research because I loved the film so much.) But I think the story of generational trauma touches on so many families and communities. Guys, if you didn’t watch the end credits, those are a treat. The song Los Oruquitas is sung in English over the credits.
Who else but Lin-Manuel Miranda could do this AND Hamilton? He’s a genius.
The hug with the sister was also important. It was healing the fractured relationship and also showing that Isabela was under a lot of pressure, just like Luisa (who she also hugged).
I can confidently say I never expected to see this movie on this channel but I am so glad you're giving it a go
One of the things I really like about this flick is the bookended scenes. We understand things differently when we're kids and when we're adults. Seeing the story of the magic demonstrates this. As a child, Mirabel's focus from the story is the magic of the candle. The loss in the story is there - but muted and in the background. An older Mirabel then comes to understand what that story represents. So when we see the scene played out again... we see the flash of the machete and the pure pain and anguish from Abuela. We understand the cost. Because Mirabel is now old enough to fully understand what that story is telling her.
Side note: driving this home... Abuela isn't just worried about the magic for the sake of the magic. Or her family's position within the community. But the safety of her family. The magic kept her family and the people of the community from being murdered along with her husband. She compels her family to use their gifts to serve the community because that service seems to be the point of the magic. But in the background is the memory of her husband's murder. And indeed - when the magic fails, the mountains that protect the community and the family sunders open. Thankfully, there are no murderers waiting for that moment.
This movie makes me cry every single time I see it. It's both beautiful and heartbreaking and I love every single minute of it. The second retelling of how Pedro died and the absolute grief on Abuela's face while she watched wrecked me.
I cry with Encanto from the moment it starts. Latin American families have this thing where everyone is very close but our countries are filled with so much trauma from different conflicts between it that it has become generational. This movie had so many similar things to my family’s history and my own, it always hits me right in the feels.
I understand my grandmas harshness better, the matriarchs of our families deal with so much on their own. But on the other side this movie did a great job at showing the unity in our families, the music, the happiness and how beautiful Latin American cultures are.
of all the Songs in this movie, is Surface Pressure my favorite, because Luisa has such a Powerful voice ❤
When I say this for the first time, I was Blown away by this Masterpiece, because of the Animation, and the Songs👍
I think Mirabels gift is that she heals minds the same way her mom heals bodies. And the nice thing about psychotherapy is you don't need magic to do it.
As the eldest that survived a bad home situation, Surface Pressure is 100% my favorite song.
ENCANTO!!!!
I've been patiently waiting for you guys to get to this, and I'm sooooo excited❤
Y'all are going to love this! I've rewatched this movie more times than I can count, honestly!
At this point, I should be put behind bars for serial-watching😂, that's how much I love it
You guys should definitely watch Soul next. Another incredible (and incredible dark and hard hitting) Pixar film 👀 that is probably the most adult Pixar film.
This movie really took me by surprise by how much it touched me. Even though I didn't grow up in a big family I think everyone can relate to feeling the pressure of high expectations and kind of feeling stuck not really being able to express your true self, letting your true emotions out always thinking you need to be happy for everyone, being overwhelmed and feeling like you won't ever be good enough. Love this film, especially because it feels different from your typical good vs evil story, The Oak already said it. One thing I liked in particular is that the film didn't end with Mirabel receiving a gift because that was not what the movie was about.
It WAS the hug with Isabella, it was clearly her in the vision and casita started healing during their song. It broke again after Abuelita intervened.
The Oak SLAM DUNKED IT with his final thoughts 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
i somehow gaslighted myself into thinking you'd already watched it lmao
Same here. I first checked if it was just uploaded again because of some issues.
As a Colombian I always cry when I watch Encanto because of what it represents for my country's history. I love this movie. In my family, I am Luisa, independent and strong and the one my parents look up to handle things and help my siblings and her song just broke me. I remember crying so bad at the movie theater, I couldn't stop. The story and the Family dinamycs is just beautiful. ❤
Need a compilation of them saying “family” its so funny
I loved this movie, its very nostalgic of my childhood back in the Philippines where the entire family would live in one big house. Even just watching a reaction, the movie still pulls on the heartstring. The songs are so well written and composed. Glad you guys enjoyed it too
This is probably one of my favorite Disney movies. As the family outcast in a Latino family, I related to Mirabel and Bruno so much. The movie was absolutely brilliant! I am so glad you guys reacted to this movie!
The final embrace is Mirabel finally accepting and embracing herself.
Abuela Alma's grief was the catalyst for the miracle, and Abuelo Pedro's life is the source, because the entire point of his sacrifice was to protect her and their children, and the others who fled with them.
The magic began to fade because Abuela lost sight of that, and the reason for the magic in the first place.
Others have mentioned it already, but Mirabel didn't get a gift because she's the successor to Abuela Alma. Abuela herself doesn't have a gift, but rather is kind of the keeper of the magic, the conduit, if you will. So, somebody has to take over for her at some point.
It's why we really only see Casita take orders from either her, or Mirabel, and when push comes to shove, Casita shows preference for Mirabel over her Abuela. Such as when Mirabel risked her life to save the candle...and Casita did everything possible to help her, and immediately expelled the rest of the family outright, to protect them.
That's why when Mirabel put the new knob in the door, everything was restored. She's the conduit now, not Abuela Alma.
One thing I do like a lot is that Isabella is such a self-righteous nuisance at first...but it's all an act. She's miserable constantly because she can only ever pretend to be a person she isn't, and so it makes her mean to others. To find out that she's just a punk-rock girl in reality, is fantastic.
Adassa (Dolores) came to our university in Idaho for a christmas concert this past december as a guest artist. I was in the choir. We had the chance to sing We Don't Talk About Bruno. This was before I saw the movie for the first time. She is funny.
This made my top two favorite animated movies as soon as I saw it! I could relate a lot to Mirabel and Bruno for being the black sheep of the family, but also to Isabella for always having to be perfect and to Luisa for having to be strong and and kind of keep the family together. I remember I cried the first time I heard surface pressure (Luisa's song) because as an older sister it was kind of "my job" to take care of younger siblings and cousins, to be a perfect example, and to play therapist for my mom. It always felt like a lot of responsibilities so seeing it being acknowledged in the song made me tear up. I saw afterwards that a lot of women and girls who were eldest daughters felt the same way I did listening to that song.
Yeah, I agree with all your notes. I have a lot of issues with my family, so this movie always hits me pretty hard. I love all the lessons in this story. One that I haven't seen a whole lot of people mention is how Luisa is muscular and soft at the same time, and being muscular doesn't take away a woman's beauty at all. I think it's one of the first animated representations of that, and I really love and appreciate it. Another great reaction guys.
You're gonna love the Family Madrigal! 💓 This one is an eye opener in terms of family dynamic but a fun movie for sure!
Loved this reaction - thank you for sharing! The part when they show Bruno's table setting honestly broke me. I would love to see you guys react to Soul, I truly think you'd all enjoy it, it's beautifully made and it explores some really interesting and important themes. Surprised you haven't done already as it's perfect for you guys!
There's a new movie by J.A. bayona (the director of The Imposible) called Society of the Snow that you should definitely watch! Btw it is an oscar nominee👀
yes yes yes you guys are finally watching this!! I'm so excited to watch this!!!!
[after watching]
This was the most emotional movie I've ever seen (personally). Everytime I watch this movie I sob through the whole thing - starting with Waiting on a Miracle all the way through the end. This is a really deep story about healing generational trauma. Abuela went through a really traumatic displacement (something that is historically accurate - Colombia has the most displaced people in the world, and this took place during "La Violencia", a period of very violent civil war), and she represents what really happened to people who lived through trauma like that - you become so scared that all you can focus on is maintaining safety and stability. For her, that was the miracle - so her number one priority was protecting that miracle in order to protect her family and her community. She felt that her family owed the community because of their gifts, and that each member of the family's value lied in how they could give back to the community. Anyone whose grandparents went through struggle can relate so much with this movie.
Each character falls into this toxic family archetype:
Julieta is the "caretaker": In toxic family dynamics, it often comes to arguments or full-blown fights. Situations escalate quickly and the Caretaker of the family takes it upon themselves to restore peace and fix whatever the issue might be. It gets problematic when the Caretaker is ready to overlook the actual problems and refuses to address them in order to keep the peace. At a certain point, a Caretaker can prevent a family from moving forward and healing.
Isabella is the "golden child": A golden child is someone who cannot do wrong. They are favored by their guardians who praise them constantly over everyone else. By the way, most of the time the things golden children are praised for are the things the guardians admire about themselves (or what they wished they had). In this situation, the main goal for the golden child is to stay in this role for as long as possible in order to avoid the same abuse everyone else around them has to endure. Sometimes, they even adopt the mannerisms of the abuser or participate in toxic behavior themselves. With this goal in mind, the golden child has no opportunity to ever truly form a personality outside of the facade created for this role.
Luisa is the "Hero": The Hero is very similar to the Caretaker. Whereas the Caretaker feels like they have a huge responsibility to fix things, responsibility is actively thrown at the hero. They are considered the strongest. Whenever a problem arises they are supposed to take care of it. And because of that, they adapt to their role and are very mindful to always look fine on the outside while they may crumble underneath the pressure. This perfect facade helps the family to keep the illusion that everything is fine. Along with the responsibility comes also huge loneliness and troubles to share feelings for the Hero.
Bruno is the "Scapegoat": Within a toxic family, a scapegoat is often needed. Someone to put all the blame on for whatever is going wrong right now, although they have nothing to do with the issue whatsoever. This role can easily fall to the person who is aware of the problems in the family and tries to address them.
Camilo is the "Mascot": The Mascot is a tricky role because it doesn't seem too bad at first. Their function is to make people laugh; to brighten the mood, and to make the rest of the family forget about their problems. However, in order to achieve this goal, the Mascot is ready to transform into whatever the family needs at the moment; and without any care for their own needs. It often leads to a distorted self-image or even a lack thereof.
Dolores is the "Therapist": The Therapist is also a very common role in toxic family dynamics. Their whole deal is basically to listen. This happens often between young children or teenagers and parents who are out of their depth and use their children as an outlet, as someone who will listen to all their problems. Money issues, mental health issues, relationship issues; it is all thrown at the child. It will start with little things until they get pushed into the role of their caretaker's therapist over and over and over. Dolores is in the position of the Therapist as she unwillingly has to listen to everyone's problems all the time.
Antonio is the "Lost Child": The Lost Child tries to stay as much in the background as possible to avoid any attention and possible abuse. As a result, they may have difficulties developing social skills and problems with self-esteem which leads to a bit of a loner lifestyle. This one is a little bit far-fetched, but I would argue for the literal child of the cast, Antonio Madrigal. He is shown to be overwhelmed by all the attention and pressure coming with his ceremony while his power to talk to animals can be read as a fear of human interaction.
Pepa isn't necessarily a role, but represents how gaslighting has is a toxic family, she gets constantly told throughout the whole movie to stop feeling the way she does because it affects the weather. Stop being sad, you make it rain. But does anyone ever ask why she's feeling sad?
Throughout all of this, Mirabel starts out as the "Invisible Child" role, but in the end she is the one who brings about true healing for the family. She helps each character (well, a few directly at least), break free from the archetype that they're in and break free from the expectations. She starts out only seeing them as 'perfect' and like Abuela, only sees them superficially as their gifts, but as she interacts with them, she can see how each of them are sufffereing, and helps them heal and become their own person, away from the toxci family expectations.
Anyways, I could probably write a whoel thesis on the family dynamics in this movie, but I'll leave this here. Thanks for the reaction!
I'm so happy you guys finally reacted to my favourite movie of all time! When I first watched Encanto in December 2021, I instantly fell in love with it. And like The Answer said, the music was a major reason why.
But I also fell in love with the characters, the colours, the animation and, most of all, the story.
The Oak hit the nail on the head when he said what the message of the movie was: that you're special and unique no matter if you have a "special gift/skill" or not. You do not have to be crazy good at something to be someone. You are perfect the way you are.
It was awesome to rewatch the movie with you guys, as always :)
