I also like the animation so I never understood when people said that the animation bothered them when the movie came out.
Ikr. People use the term 'uncanny valley' way too quickly. The animation never bothered me.
True
For me it’s the people it’s a strange blend of real and not. But the train, snow, and lights are beautiful.
Yeah people were like ‘oh god it’s creepy!’ And I’m just like ‘…no it’s not…it’s pretty damn good, especially for when it came out.’
The animations of the persons aren't actual animations but they put on a suit that senses the movement and that's how they make an animation
Supposedly, according to someone who claimed to be a locomotive engineer (I did not verify if that was their occupation but I'm assuming they weren't lying), a train like the one the Polar Express is modeled after could stay atop ice if it was thick enough. So the scene on the froze lake isn't entirely ridiculous.
Oh my god, WHAT?!
The ice would be 2.74 meters thicc to support the train's weight, the thing i don't undertand is how the hell they steered it
I mean, anything could stay atop ice if it's thick enough I guess
That thing is that the Polar express slide off the rails and into the ice rather then "falls" on it
@@mussarelinhagames146 magic...
The animation style is supposed to mimic the illustrations in the book. That's why it hadn't been used before, nor has it been used since. It is synonymous with this story.
Fun fact: The duet in the movie, when played just instrumentally it’s a flute and clarinet, and my eldest sister played the clarinet solo :)
thats crazy what? for the actual recording of the movie?
@@Subbie-the-1st Yeah, the clarinet is for the girls part
@@Subbie-the-1st Yeah, the girls part is played by the clarinet
This is hands down my most favorite Christmas film ever, it’s worth making a tradition watching it every December, also my birthday is two days before Christmas
yooo my birthday is AFTER christmas on the 26th
@@OlympiaMapping that’s awesome
I literally started a 7 day trial of a stream on my roku, just cuz hulu, netflix all took it off because they want you to pay xD.
Due to the train being magic, the trip only takes 5 minutes. At the start it was 11:55 and when they Santa takes off it was 12:00
I don't know if it's the train but rather just the magic of Christmas all together but I see what you're saying but I think you've missed a little or you're just mistaken but whenever he's dropped off back at his house it's 12:00 just like it was whenever Santa took off from the north pole and so only 5 minutes went past the entire Journey it didn't take the polar express 5 mins getting there (the north pole) but rather the whole trip from the north pole and then back too his house is within 5 minutes
I believe this film is one of the few motion captured animated film.
This movie is my comfort movie. Don't matter what time of year it is, if I'm depressed I'm gonna watch this movie. This movie came out when I was in 4th grade. The class took a trip to see it in theaters in 3D. I remember us all so excited. We tried catching the ticket when it was blowing away. We all gasped when we saw Santa. This was also the last Christmas before I stopped believing in Santa and the last year I had that 100% pure childhood magic.
So when I watch this movie its like my heart gets filled with that magic all over again. Despite it being July XD
I love this movie!! 🥰💛 I’m 19 years old now and I watch it every year with my sisters, a tradition we have had since we were little! I loved your reaction!
And you look so beautiful btw!
Merry Christmas! 🎄✨🙏🏽
Love that you do that as tradition! And thank you for the kind words
“Is that his sock juice?” Not really. He didn’t have a filter to keep the coffee grounds in, so he used his sock. He’s wringing coffee out of it.
I grew up loving this movie so I was shocked to find out that it wasn’t exactly well received which I just can’t pinpoint why it’s literally the perfect Christmas movie in my opinion
14:20 a little fun fact about animals is that during nighttime hours if an animal is looking directly at you even from a distance their eyes actually reflect back at you they kind of glow in the dark if you will.
This was the last movie I watched in a theater with my parents. An animator didn't have to create all the details of that locomotive, with a few changes, it is exactly like the actual Pere Marquette locomotive that was displayed for years in East Lansing, Michigan, near the Michigan State university football stadium. A young man who stopped to look at the locomotive, numbered 1225, when his father took him to MSU games, later, inspired by the locomotive number, wrote the book that was the basis for this movie. The real 1225 was restored to operation years ago and operate year round, but between Thanksgiving and Christmas pulls "The North Pole Express" and children and their families relive scenes from the movie, recreated by actors on the train.
This is one of my favorite Christmas Movies ever just because it made believed in Santa more
18:52 If you want to see an Aurora Borealis, go to Alaska, northern Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland, or northern Russia in the winter time.
You can see them in northern Michigan too
Believe it or not, we briefly had an aurora in Yorkshire, UK a few days ago, according to the news.
There isn't a single movie I watched more than this one.
For real, I think I watched it a thousand times before I turned 10 (And it came out a little before I was 2.).
I spent days just watching it again and again.
I always loved Christmas and trains, what else could I want? It was the perfect movie for me.
And don't even get me started on how this movie sounds and looks beautiful, especially for 2004, not even Ange said it enough!
In other languages too it's amazing.
I hadn’t seen this movie since I was a kid, like maybe 9 or 10, and I just watched it and was crying or nearly crying the whole way through, which I haven’t done in a very very long time over a movie. It’s nostalgia for me is honestly unparalleled with movies, and besides that, it’s honestly a perfect movie.
I have watched this movie every year since it came out and have NEVER noticed the bell whispering doubt until you pointed it out. Amazing job and hearing noticing that.
Literally one of my favorite youtubers! I watched one video and now I’m hooked😭😭😭😭
It is honestly the best Christmas movie. And it’s not just about believing in Santa. Heck, he literally calls himself a symbol of Christmas spirit. It’s a beautiful, beautiful movie that I will never ever forget.
That shiny object @3:50 ... that was a hubcap from an old Ford. I giggled at the number exotic thing you guessed...
Merry Christmas 🎄
Best to you and yours.
Tom hanks isn’t in the movie, he IS the movie. He’s legit like every character it’s amazing
I used to watch this movie over and over again with my dad, even when it's not christmas, it's like our go to movie when i was like 10 years old. So every time this movie came up to me via the internet / cut scenes on social media / youtube reaction / etc, i got flashback of the good old times 😭 i'm now 23 and my dad is still here with me, but as i grew up, things kinda changed, and we're both kinda "distant" from each other. Ugh idk why i even write all of this lol but thank you for the wholesome reaction, it brings back the good memories for me
It’s a tradition in my family to watch this movie every Christmas 🎄. Weird question for Angelina, have you ever worked in the film industry? I’m asking because your attention to the details of the movie is very accurate 😲👍.
:0 i love this movie, one of my fave Christmas movies ngl
The Polar Express is easily my favorite Christmas Movie, and one of my favorite movies period. I grew up watching the film, and I've seen it every single year. Part of it is because I love trains, but I also think the film tells a beautiful story. There's a sense of mystery in the film, and the dynamic the 4 main kids have is honestly really wonderful.
I agree, it's the best Christmas movie, then comes Klaus
I watch this film every year at Christmas.
I believe that the 'toy' in his room (frisbee/plate thing) is actually a hubcap from a car wheel. I don't know why he has it.
this is a great movie, even today, my favourite parts involve the hero girl, especially her relationship with Billy and the Hero Boy
So if anyone doesn't know, The Hobo is a ghost.
I love this movie so much. I was a kid that thankfully only stuck to one or 2 gifts growing up, but my parents did so much to go above and beyond to make it look like Santa visited. I thank them so much for that. One year all I wanted was a bell from Santa, so they made all my gifts bell themed or decorated with bells. And they gave me a silver bell that matched the one in this movie and added a snowman top to it. This movie was everything to me.
24:12 -- No, it's whispering "DOUBTER" (not, "doubt")
Best Christmas Movie Ever!
14:37 on your talk about how the engineer seeing the tiny little light coming from the caribou. If you listen to his tone he sounded shocked that it was caribou. And a note seeing another light on a single track would have meant something bad's about to happen and that's why he yelled to stop the train
Not gonna lieee, I love the outfit, your makeup looks fantastic as well, and again.. your hair looks sooo freaking good! It definitely suits you 😊also, I’m so happy to see sharkie in the commentary or reaction videos again!!
Ahhhhhhhh, I’m so happy that you reacted to this!! I recently watched it again and I have to agree with you, it does put you in the Christmas spirit!! Speaking of that, I just have to say, love how you did the lights!! Despite them being quite contrasting colors, it looks really good and it honestly improves the background a lot!!
I agree with you!! The movie is really beautiful despite it being really old also!! The cinematography for this movie is brilliant!! I’ve never seen shots like that again so yeah, the cinematographer is absolutely brilliant. The sound design of the movie is also quite beautiful. They definitely put a lot of effort into it and it shows! Yesssss, the musical score of the picture is too good!!!! The lighting is also wonderful 😁 tbh, a lot of aspects of this film is so gorgeous.
Might I also add, the performances of the actors were amazing. Tom Hanks always does such a great job!! He was definitely my favorite part of the movie. But all of the people who played the children did good too!!
To finally get to your video though! Your reactions were incredible!! You’re so gosh darn funny. I have legit laughed so much because of you. I even laughed just by you laughing!! I’ll also say this, I’ve not seen a lot of movie commenters in TH-cam who are as attentive as you! You always bring up really great points!! I don’t only appreciate your content because of that, I also really appreciate you as a TH-camr because your comments are actually worth listening to! I love how your comments don’t only make me think about the movie but they also make me appreciate the film more!!
i love the movie and made me like this video
HI ANGELINA!!!!! The main problem that some people have with the c.g.i. is actually the different numbers of passenger coaches that Engine 1225 is pulling, because at first there are 5 coaches when 1225 arrives at the house. But when it runs through the forest with the wolves then there are 15 coaches!! But where did the extra 10 coaches come from?? Then later they disappeared again!! But when 1225 was skidding on the icy lake there were only 4 coaches!! Thus an extra coach DISAPPEARED!! YET....When 1225 runs through the city streets at the North Pole it changes back and forth from 9 coaches back to five for when 1225 moves slowly around the Gigantic Christmas Tree 🎄 that is situated EXACTLY at the 0° Latitude North thus ALL Directions are South from there!! Thus the P.X. Should have a consist of 5 coaches and listed in reverse from the back is the 5th car is the OBSERVATION LOUNGE with the rearward ending viewing platform and filled with the comfortable Lounge 💺 chairs. The 4th car is for the Children to sit in. The 3rd car interior isn't seen but might be the kitchen car were the delicious Hot Chocolate is made in the big brass kettle. But the 2nd coach is probably the crew car for the cooks and Dancing Waiters. Now the 1st coach is the TOY CAR where the young girl and boy see the broken and forgotten toys. But when the boy is scared of the Scrooge marionette by the HOBO the boy runs out the door 🚪 🤔 AND IS INSTANTLY MAGICALLY TELEPORTED right past the 2 crew cars and directly into the coach with the other kids. Of course pulling this Magic Train is Steam Locomotive 1225 2-8-4 Berkshire class N-1 but based upon the REAL PERE MARQUETTE RR. 1225 built in 1941 in Lima Ohio as a group of 30 brand new larger steamers that were much more powerful and faster than the nearly 20 year old steamers built around 1918 during WW1. BUT 1225 AND HER POWERFUL SISTERS pulled the supply trains for WW2 and ran between Detroit and Chicago and with Thousands of steamers and electrics and diesels that pulled Billions of Tons of freight and carried Millions of Soldiers to fight the vile enemies of WW2 and that helped the U.S.A. and the Allies around the world 🌎 achieve Victory ✌ and Peace ✌!!!!! GOD BLESS THE U.S.A 🇺🇸 🙌!!!!! IN THE HOLY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST 🙏 🙌 ❤!!!!! AND THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT 🙏!!!!! UNITED AS THE 1 TRUE GOD OF THE TRINITY!!!!! ALLELUIA!!!!! AMEN 🙏!!!!! And the True and Real 1225 was saved from the old junkyard in the 1950s to become a unique display and historical monument at the East Lansing College. Then in the 1970s some college students started a club to rebuild this old rusty engine so that it could run again for pulling football train excursions to other cities . But progress was slow because the students, and retired Railroad Men could only work on weekends fir nearly 15 years. Then miraculously they found the old Roundhouse and repair shop was still in Owosso, Michigan. Then 1225 was pulled by a diesel engine into this repair shop with the heavy duty machines like lathes to repair the axles and wheels. At last 1225 was completed and running back and forth for medium excursions. And historic photographic charters and special events . Then Hollywoid called for information about steamers for the new c.g.i. movie that pioneered the use of c.g.i. for special effects. And for the past 20 years the new cgi movies are now better with even more details. And Locomotive 🚂 ❤ 😍 1225 is Still making millions of people happy, both young and old, all around the World 🌎 😀!!!!! GOD BLESS EVERYBODY WITH HAPPINESS FOREVER 😊 🙂 ☺ 😃 🙏!!!!!
I read the book to my kid and watch the movie every Christmas. We also go to the railroad museum after thanksgiving and take a ride on the polar express. It’s a fun ride where they serve hot chocolate and cookies, have dancers dressed as the “hot chocolate” waiters, the hobo makes an appearance and close to the end of the ride after leaving the “North Pole” Santa comes through the rail cars and hands everyone a bell like the one in the movie.
This scene is the equivalent of Dory talking to whales in Finding Nemo. Lol 14:51
It was either saying “Doubt” or “Doubter”
The only time I actually remember watching this movie was when I was in third grade and I almost missed our Christmas Movie Day because I got detention but thankfully the teacher let me go bc it was my first offense 😂
This movie was my childhood, I loved it so much
No waayyyy. I was just thinking of this movie last night if someone will react to this. And this came out. ILOVEITTT
Polar Express, Christmas Carol, how the Grinch stole Christmas takes you back to your vintage childhood memories that gives you cozy feelings.
I Always Loved The Polar Express, Ever Scene I First Met It On 2015
The Polar Express NEVER gets old.
That thing by the radiator is a coletors wheel cap
I love this movie, watch it every year on December 24th
Ryan George did a great Pitch Meeting for this movie. Amazingly funny. Highly suggest everyone watch his pitch meeting.
Tom Hanks voiced all the characters and did the motion caption to all of the characters. He also did the motion caption of the kid.
15:15 so shook LOL your commentaries are always so great
I love the roller coaster part.
A classic that i used to watch all the time
OMG i love you!!
Rise of the Guardians is an absolute awesome movie as is this one.
The Hot Chocolate song scene in the movie makes me want hot chocolate every time I watch it. And I don’t even like hot chocolate
3:54 I believe that is an old car rim sitting by the radiator or as they called them back in the day a casing
“That little light” eye shine.
Fun fact: Tom Hanks voice plays 4 characters in this movie. Can you guess which ones without looking it up?
He’s does 7 apparently. I know only 4 though. Santa, the dad, the conductor and the hobo. He apparently did the face capture for hero boy while josh Hutchison did the body movements
Merry Christmas 🎄
I love this movie
It’s crazy that back then my brain was confused thinking that the polar express was live action XD
Fun fact, I believe a lot of this at least with the characters is motion capture - apologies if this has already mentioned
I'm gonna say something controversial: The Hero Boy had no reason to try to take the little girl her ticket. They would have returned to the passenger cabin and she could have gotten her ticket checked then.
rise of the guardians!!!! yes it’s so good!
2004 was the year that I graduated from high school
I remember this movie, is so good👍🏻
If you love this animation style, I suggest this movie: The adventures of tin tin. (2012)
I always thought it was sad that his sister got where she couldn't hear the bell anymore.
I had a threoy that conductor was the boy from the future bc the narrotor for the kids is tom hanks and the conductor was played by tom hanks
You should go to the polar express in Durango you’ll really love the experience
i agree rise of the guardians is very underated
TOU SKIPPED THE BEST SCENE OF THE MOVIE IN THE ICE
Have you ever seen Annabelle's Wish? Very cute Christmas movie about a cow
What if, bc it was all a dream, the kid grew up to be the conductor? Which would explain why the kids narration sounds just like him.
I f-ing love this movie!!
lowkey information:
you look cute
Directed by Robert Zemeckis starring Tom Hanks in almost every role about a boy who doesn't believe in Santa Claus until he gets taken on a ride to the North Pole to meet Santa himself. This is motion-capture that Zemeckis wanted to incorporate to show how effective the technology could be. It's a little rough but pretty good
Tom Hanks is a multi-Oscar winner primarily for best actor
omg i didn’t remember any of this movie HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH i mite rewatch 🤓🤓🤓
Isnt the polar express on HBO max
What Microphone are you using :) ?
19:46-19:50 Good reaction there! 👌
I think the animation is great
This is the number 2 movie I ever like from WB the first one is troy
I thought that was a random hubcap leaning on the radiator.
It’s a Ford hubcap.
The video is amazing.
I hope you're aware this movie was meant for 3D
Allen Silvestri composed the music for this movie
Please react to Klaus, it's amazing. And the Jim Carrey version of A Christmas Carol.
Speaking of ‘Rise of the Guardians’! - Please consider reacting to / commenting on that one.
But yes the only thing I don't understand about this movie is why he takes the girl on top of the train to get to the back of the cars instead of just going through the doors in all the cars way more safe
The conductor looks like my Uncle Neal
That wasn't from his feet because he's dead meaning he's a ghost, it's just coffee i mean he does say cup of Joe.
well when u think about it Santa isn't real but God is, the message of this movie is we don't need to see things to know they exist, you've never seen your grandgrandgrandgrandmother but through logic you know she exists, same here, logic and faith.
The your video's are amazing 👋😎
I think you should react to the new Chucky tv series! It’s really good!
Can we talk about how none of the kids have a name other then billy ( lonely boy)
Wdym that african american girl has a name its hero girl
@@josephg.1.130 that's not a name its a title
@@spookygirl31 trust me, it says hero girl on her birth certificate
when will you upload stranger things?
I want to know this too
In my intro, I announce when the last two stranger things commentaries are coming out!
The nard boy who talk about the the locomotive it self he says the locomotive was built by baldwin locomotive works in 1931 but he got it wrong the locomotive was based on a real locomotive the Berkshire 1225 which still running and the it was built by Lima in 1941 not 1931
