    Honestly makes sense that Unicorn Wars was inspired by Bambi, considering how dark some of the scenes in that movie are.

      The story is a broken mess in all honesty.
      Using mere concepts of other works like Fullmetal Jacket, Animal farm, the last unicorn and watership down which are then super glued together and held with ductape.
      Instead of focusing on one concept it goes all over the place hoping it seems high brow by throwing all these concepts together and hiding the cracks by absurd violence towards cute creatures.
      The weird Cain and Abel brother thing was not really required as it kind of defeats the purpose of "War makes average men do unspeakable things".
      Having twin brothers where one is a psychopath simply due to a percieved slight and neglect and presure by both parents kind of defeats the anti war sentiment as the evil twin came out broken anyways and the war/military thing did nothing to make him such.
      But i guess the script writer realised he was making a Private Pile from fullmetal jacket with chubby so added the no reason evil twin so people wouldn't notice.

    I think that Bluey never really hated Tubby just for being born before him. I think the explanation for it is that it was a mixture of him trying to rationalize his mothers favoritism while also internalizing his fathers words of needing to be the best. His brother was born first, therefore he did something "better" than him. In his young mind, he must've thought that was why his mother liked Tubby more, and that jealousy only festered until he find more and more reasons to hate his brother, until it wasn't about who was born first anymore, only that he hated Tubby.

      we know nothing about psychology. in reality, the truth probably is just that Bluey was born psychopathic. we don't know how or why this happens--just that it does happen.
      Tubby is average, and Bluey is a homicidal psychopath. the other factors are just part of the scenery.

    I'm glad Unicorn Wars is getting more attention on it. I loved this movie a lot partly because it's from the same creator / director of BirdBoy: and The Forgotten Children which is another good but dark adult animated film that touches on a lot of mature issues and themes. But what I enjoyed about Unicorn Wars is that while it is a gore-filled violent feast, it's still has substance and a story to it filled with many underlying themes and messages to it that you can pick apart or go a bit more in depth on.

      he mentioned being partly inspired by Apocalypse Now, which itself took lots of inspiration from sources like The Golden Bough and TS Eliot's "The Wasteland".
      only yokels believe in dark/light, good/bad, and binary thinking. rather, the sense of the "shadow self" isn't just one "evil twin", but rather various "dark sides" everybody has.
      conversely, we also have many "light sides". it's how people can choose to forgive rather than get revenge, or choose to do better, or stay quiet and listen rather than get into an argument, or just abandon a bad situation rather than coming back with a weapon.
      so much focuses on the dark side of humanity, but very little focuses on our light side--the sides that chooses good over bad. and these light sides appear very frequently in life too. people have done so many wonderful things, and we still do every day.
      i believe people are essentially good inside, though unfortunately, some people are born with (or acquire) mental illness that makes them do bad things.
      apes are generally peaceful creatures who don't enjoy fighting. in fact, they only do it when it's absolutely necessary. human apes are extremely social and very emotionally dependent on their fellow apes. we need one another all throughout our lives.
      but because we're existentialists ("we think, therefore we are"), we assign subjective meaning to everything....and this produces art, and it also produces war.
      we feel very deeply, and that means we also fear very deeply. and that by itself is a pretty simple explanation of why people do bad things: because we feel deeply, and fear deeply.

    I also want to point out their dad favors Azulin over Gordi. Like both of parents picked the son that looked the most like them and treated them better. Their dad only taking Azulin on the boat to talk to him about the divorce, their mom only gardening and cooking with Gordi and their dad giving Azulin a nearly full pie and only giving Gordi a sliver of that pie. They both suck at raising kids.

      True, this movie pretty much shows why bad parenting (and people not being able to address traumas and/or any possible PDs) can have consequences to societies and future generations. The way the society was built as well as the background Bluey and Tubby grew up in ends up leading to doom of the bears in general.

      There's to say the mum tried several times to include Azulin in her activities with Gordi,but Azulin always refused,probably because of a mix of reasons,but I think the main one is that he didn't want to share her with Gordi. He didn't want to be included in an activity _with_ Gordi,he wanted to be chosen _instead_ of Gordi.

    We actually see monkeys in the trees when they find the missing squad. It's also interesting to note that the wound the squad died to aren't how unicorns kill. They're completely different. And the fact that the bears finds a built church with the bible they worship already in it. This could mean a third party pulling the strings behind the scenes to make bears and unicorns fight

(plus, i've always been more of a horror/thriller person) but i watched this with my friend in a cramped dorm room, and i watched every single bit of it from beginning, and even through the credits. now, that's a feat for me, since i'm autistic and can't hold my attention on things during long periods of time, but this film GENUIINELY captivated me, and i think its reinvigorated my love for horror/horror-adjacent films, and just film in general. and that's the highest honor i can give a film.

    I think the two brothers represent Selfishness and selflessness, good and evil, productive and destructive, abandonedness and togetherness. I cried at the end, seeing the unicorn and brothers merge into a person because the end result is what humans are. Seeing both souls of the vile and good merge was uncomfortable. it is like the new human was leading other impressionable beings, the monkeys, into a complicated future full of unpredictable chaos of war, resolution, bitterness, understanding etc. it's scary how you can see the brothers in ourselves.

    One of the things that is very understated (on purpose) but poignant for the film is how Gordi easily lives in the forest, showing that it is only the bears keeping themselves out of the forest. And then similarly how it is only Azulin keeping himself separated from his mom and brother growing up. The rifts are manufactured and not reciprocal.

    Personally, I love the whole birth sequence. It’s the purest depiction of Azulin’s issues. Why did the universe choose Gordi first? Who knows. Maybe there was a deeper purpose, maybe it’s just random chance. In Azulin’s perspective, however, it’s proof of his inferiority. It’s an unbearable worldview. Every moment he’s not the center of attention is an indictment of his worth.
    Is he REALLY this evil just because he was born second? No, of course not. There is no valid way to rationalize his motivations. But the birth scene is the strongest possible emotional foundation for him to cling to. “The universe wronged me before I was even born, therefore I will declare war on nature itself, and I will stand victorious.” That’s the best way I could describe his worldview.
    He’s possessed by envy. Perhaps he is the embodiment of the spirit of envy itself. Everything that doesn’t bow to him is a threat to be destroyed. He is a raging fire that burns everything in his path.
    He’s a fascinating character. I’m surprised how much I want to empathize with his plight. I wonder if it’s more due to good writing or my vulnerability to cute aesthetics.

In the scene were he explains the prophecy to Bluey he shows a gentle and softer side. In the scene where he’s reprimanding the Sargent over the polar twins deaths, he shows a dominant and booming anger. During both of these scenes he's still abiding by his beliefs and principles, something many of the other bears didn't do. I feel Baker could portray that strong yet misguided morality well.

    Actually, there's a story in the bible about a guy named Jacob, or Yaakov in Hebrew which comes from the world akev which means heel in Hebrew. The reason he is called that is because when him and his tween were born, Yaakov's tween came out before him and Yaakov grabbed his brother's heel because he wanted to be born first.
    In his story, we see how jealous Yaakov is of his tween brother, going so far as to disguise himself as his tween so that their sick father would give him the will money instead of his technically older brother (I'm pretty sure that's how the story goes, but anyone can feel free to correct me).

    I have a personal theory about Tubby and Bluey's parents. I believe they only got married because the mother bear got pregnant. The couple were never in love and only married to not cause a stir with their religious community, but when Tubby came along the mother treated him like a miracle baby. Something good in her unwanted marriage. Then, Bluey came along and he was just an accident until the father bear (with no word to his wife or first born) carried Bluey away robbing the child of bonding with his mother, and later trauma dumped on Bluey which lead to his downfall as an adult.

  • @ViccolasHavoc
    @ViccolasHavoc 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I think the whole thing about tubby being born before bluey being a reason for his jealously is actually less about blueys validation for having bad blood towards tubby and his mom and more of a way of illustrating that from the instant Bluey was born he was off kilter. He was a vain jelous monster and he was always going to be a monster. Its a reflection of human nature how two children born at the same time and grew up under the same nurture can still choose to be kind or cruel.

    the ending of the film shows that man is not only “evil”, but also “good”, since the black substance absorbs not only Bluey, but also Tubby. maybe Maria means something too, but I don't know. there may also be points from the Bible and various religions, but I cannot say for sure. Unicorn Wars is a great movie. has its problems and shortcomings, but it left a mark on my heart. you empathize with the characters, understand and do not understand their behavior. Bluey is the culprit of the entire genocide, but realizing that he was an innocent child, you feel sorry for him. all this leaves an emotional mark and eats into the soul. the video is wonderful, I agree with the author’s thoughts. Good luck!

    Blueys parents didn't get divorce, the mother was cheating, finding a better man (more manly and better eyes) showed the father as someone mediocre. (its my theory seeing other works of the creator where women cheat or hint like decorado)

    • @yamataichul
      @yamataichul ปีที่แล้ว +14

      I've assumed it wasn't because the father was mediocre but not fitting for her. She did went for appearance but also the man's eye color probably significantly meant they relate and are a match for each other. The father probably wasn't invested in her needs since he clearly talks with his fav child son how low he is instead of worrying for his children or the future

      @@yamataichul the parent venting to children will always be bad it’ll make the child hate the other parent or blame themselves. Blueys dad did that making them hate his mother and putting him in a posición to be the best.
      The father not investing in the mother needs part is a no for me since it’s not shown. In writing and irl a woman cheating on you means you are the lowest of the low.

    A lot of cultures put emphasis on "The First Born", typically the first born son. The first born has the most potential, the most social power, and in some cases, first in line to carry on the business, the kingdom, the family name, etc. It's a point of contention but it's a position that is more curse than anything. I'm the First Born Son of the First Born Son in my family and there was a lot of pressure put on me to be better than my cousins and sister, to set an example for them. Now, I'm the farthest behind anyone. Now, I don't talk to my father. And I've never been happier. Yet that stinging, wrenching feeling of perceived failure will always be there.

    I'm sure someone has mentioned this, but my immediate mental link when watching this movie was to Princess Mononoke. Especially the creatures of the forest, the apes and the unicorns-- reminds me of the wolves, boars and monkeys fighting against the humans. Some of the animation, like the blob monster, is really similar to the cursed boar at the beginning of the film, too. It was really fucking strange getting that sense of deja vu whilst watching care bears in the trenches. Genuinely shocked to never hear it listed as an actual source of inspiration for the creator cuz it seems so intentional; either way, it's an incredible movie with all the shock & horror advertised via trailers, plus a shit load of gorgeous animation and a mindfuck of a story. Super Enjoyed it!

The references are very obvious, from My Neighbour’s Totoro and Princess Mononoke (which are also shown in GKids’ Gallery) to Cain and Abel (which was just an unexpected cliche) It was just pure mental due to the cuteness the bears had. Talks a lot about how looks do put a major impression on the mind. And of course The animation is just too gooood

The director has brought out some other wonderful flicks I think GKIDS brought out too like "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" "Summer Wars" and "Wolf Children".

    I think that the unicorn represents nature, Tubby represents our love for nature and our general kindness, and Bluey represents how ideologies can affect us, we are part of nature and we love it, and we can be very kind creatures with people helping others out with the sole intention of making other people happy, but sometimes our ideologies and desires get in the way and we rip ourselves to shreds.

    When I was born my brother was 2. He instantly hated me. He would constantly try to kill me when I was only days or months old. Not hurt me. Kill me. At 2 or 3 year old constantly trying to murder your infant brother any chance you get. From that point on my brother could not be trusted near me or my little sisters. His reasoning for this was that everything was perfect till I came along and ruined everything. He told me that when I was like 3 or 4. I didn't understand what he meant till I was older.

    Interestingly enough, i know 9 pairs of twins (2x9), and they all joke about who was born first. And then other replies "actually I'm the oldest because the position meant that i was first, thats why you were closer to the exit". None of them hates the other twin, but if they did maybe that factor could play a role in it.

    Hey man! Big fan of both your videos and Alberto Vazquez’s work. Now that you’ve watched Unicorn Wars you should definitely check the rest of Alberto’s catalogue! Birdboy and the forgotten children is one of my absolute favorite films but also his short films are great!
    Also, fun fact: Alberto is a self taught animator. I was once lucky enough to attend a masterclass of him in an animation festival where he explained back when he made the original short that inspired this film (the short is called Unicorn Blood) he was an illustrator but didn’t know how to properly animate. He didn’t know how to animate on computer, so made all the drawings (in ink and watercolor) and scanned them to give animation a try.
    He is a BEAST 🔥
