Just side note: Ig you can say that the whole song was a forshadowing message but the warning was the last part not "Shes as cute as a button" its *"Our eyes will be ON Coraline"*
also he didn’t highlight the next line, that, when put together with the one he did highlight shows even bigger foreshadowing : “She’s as cute as *a button In the eyes* of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline”
@@moej3386 yea the whole song is litterly warning her, I just meant that last part I brought up bc it was like- just telling her striaght up oUr eyEs will be ON coRalineee
YeetMaster42069 the book and the movie are both fantastic! I just finished the book just cuz I was curious and they both have such creepy aspects. I feel as if the book might have a few more creepy things like how the other father plumped up like roses bread dough and was chasing after her in a basement was creepy. The rats that often appear in the book gave off a more gross and decaying vibe. But the movies ability to display that horror factor with bright colors without the sense of decay that we would usually expect from a horror movie adds so much debt like the video stated. Both are magnificent works of art!
A good thing about Coraline, is that it sticks to the original book SO WELL and barely misses anything out at all (Well, they did add extra things in like Wyvie but they added it in well and made it stick with the story!) Speaking of the story itself.. it’s once again extremely accurate to the book. In all honesty it might not be my absolute favourite movie, but it’s still one of the best in my mind (It’s also extremely impressive because all of this was made in stop-motion but it looks so smooth!)
They did change the dad a little bit. In the book instead of turning into a pumpkin the other mother threw the other father into the basement and when Coraline has to go downstairs the other father is rotting alive and crawling after Coraline.
8:12 After watching the movie for a second time, this scene really broke my heart. There’s such vulnerability in it that I just can’t watch it without thinking how I would feel if I suddenly lost my parents. Besides in Walmart of course.
Dude I remember when I was 5 I had this on dvd and I would watch it *multiple times, every. Day.* it was my favorite movie and still is one of my favorites to this day. This movie holds a *very* special place in my heart
This is why it's better to have more than one kid, because parents are always busy, when you have one child, you are all they have to entertain them at home. If they have a sibling, it's someone to play with & someone to talk to.
@@misspopcoin2204 That's why my parents decided to have me, sadly my sister HATED me basically since I was born according to my mother. Haven't seen her since she moved out a year ago.
Dyslexic Batnam yeah. There is a theory too about Coraline not being in the real word, but instead she is between the two worlds. Naiv and seemingly happy, she is unconscious of her state of being in the Limbo world.
I remember crying when Coraline made her mom and dad as pillows and slept with them idk why that hit me so hard but it did this movie is truly one of laikas best
I always tear up at that scene. It's the idea of being young and having your parents disappearing out of thin air and suddenly you're are all alone in the world. Despite all the times she's gotten upset with them, she truly loves them and just wished for their presence.
in eighth grade i asked my teacher if i could pick a movie that our class could watch because it was like a free day, and i picked this movie but to go into more detail my teacher is a nun and i was in a catholic school, while my peers loved this movie, my teacher was terrified LMFAOAO
Best part is it doesn't get extremely sinister till act when the reveal of them sewing buttons into her eyes are revealed. I can see her reaction now: Act 1: Gray and odd but sweet Act 2: Ooh so colorful and cheery Act 3: I see the pattern, the other place is like an illusion. Act 4: Oh wow! I was right. Wait....okay that was pretty lewd. Act 5: Sew buttons into her eyes, oh my! Dear Lord, those ghost... Act 6: Oh sweet Saint Jospeh she's a demon! No wait, Spider Demon!!! Act 7: Thank god it's over, oh lord the hand! Note to self : "Destiny is never picking the movie again".
Whenever I was younger and when this movie came out. I remember that this movie always made me feel uneasy and actually kinda scared. And until this day. I tried rewatching the movie and I still feel super uneasy about it..
Yeah, it made me feel in those nightmares you have when weird things happen and you try telling people but nobody listens. That was what most terrified me about it.
The entirety of this movie terrified me when i was younger, losing your parents, the hand constantly coming after you and still being out there, the other better world suddenly becoming a nightmare, the visuals, and just everything.
Yeah, I always wonder what would've happened if the Other Mother's hand dragged Coraline back through one of the apparent "portals" to t he other world like the well.
Controversial opinion??? Coralines parents arent horrible. They are lower class and stressed out. The movie takes place at a busy time and im sure they are fine most of the time
If this is controversial, this comment would've blown up 2 months ago. I think it's actually what Coraline's parents are going through. Instead of an opinion..
I dunno. Anyone that gets after their kid for wanting attention is pretty awful. There's a difference between being busy and literally neglecting your child. Not that being busy and having kids is neglectful. But you can tell by the parents' responses to Coraline's presence (mother shushes her over the slightest peep, father sighs when she walks into the room) that it's more than 'they're busy'.
Like explained in the video, the whole movie is COMPLETELY shown from Corlaline's point of view. The parents aren't probably as harsh/neglecting her as much as she feels like they are. She is a child that constantly wants the attention of her parents. At the end of the movie, we see Coraline spending time with her parents in the garden providing her with the attention she needs. They are kind, caring, and colorful in that scene because that's how Coraline sees her parents. At the beginning, they're busy and tired which makes them cruel and boring parents to Coraline at that point.
@@charlottek8166 Neglectful parents aren't usually %100 neglectful. Coraline's parents, however, are neglectful to the point of abuse most of the time. This is, of course, assuming the narrator's reliable, which I'm inclined to believe if she's ruining off to a fantasy land where she has attentive parents, even if her other mother's overbearing and her other father's an awful enabler.
There's clear theming in the movie about nothing and nobody being "perfect". Coraline wants a perfect world with the perfect parents and perfect friends, and gets what she wants, but that perfect world turns out to be fabricated. As a result, Coraline learns to accept the world and it's faults. It's clear the parents don't change as people by the end of the movie, it's Coraline who changes, she learns to be more understanding to her parents and be happy with what she has. I think it's that unique execution that makes this movie so amazing. It doesn't shove an extremely horrible household down tour throat and then magically solve it through unrelated events, because that's not realistic in the slightest; instead it shows normal people with normal issues.
@@belarose5490 It isn't snowing outside and the parents were captured in the snowglobe, in that scene you see the snowglobe that they were in is broken, then the parents appeared, so that snow is from them being in the snowglobe. My theory at least, makes sense to me.
yeah and im pretty sure when she explains that they were in a snowglobe, they think she's making things up. when she points out the snow on them, they deny that there is any snow on them and just as they say that it melts away.
Here’s why I don’t agree with you on why you think what happened to Coraline isn’t real...the doll. Everyone acknowledges that the dolls looks like her, and we see the doll being made before we see Coraline.
Exactly. It did happen, it was all the Other Mother's creation. There were actual consequences if Coraline decided to give up her eyes. She would be *dead*
Now imagine seeing it for the first time when you were 5 at night without your parents That was my experience i’m 10 and I have never seen the movie untill the end
I saw the trailers and commercials for this movie back when it first came out but I never saw it until about a week ago and I’m glad I didn’t because I don’t think my 10 year old self would be able to fully appreciate how good this movie is but at the same time I do wish it could’ve been a part of my childhood experience.
see the thing is personally i dont experience much nostalgia from movies i seen when i was 10, that was kinda the cut off for an undeveloped sense of mind. I gained alot of independence when i was 10 even compared to 9, I could obviously understand the movie better at 15, but movies like the polar express, toy story 2, brother bear, open season, etc. are very nostalgic and i watched those when i was 3 and 4
M.C I’ve seen that movie so many times but I still get enjoyment out of it! I’ve seen videos on how long the movie took to make and why and it’s absolutely magnificent! The clothes took I think up to five months if I remember correctly to make and even the little stuff like using pink painted popcorn on the trees to make it look like cherry blossoms is interesting
I remember reading the book after seeing this film when it first came out, and was delighted to find that the film was surprisingly faithful to the source material while only changing what improved on its foundation. It’s also one of the first stories meant for kids that reminded me of films like Inception or Memento, where it makes you wonder what is real and what is simply the main characters imagination, which is something I applaud for it being able to convey to a young audience.
raison d'être first time I watched pans labyrinth I really didn't like it (I was young and it was creepy) later I thought it was okay but the last time I watched it I couldn't stop crying when the yellow light at the end happened.
raison d'être . That got me feeling the same with the little grl in pan's labyrinth and coraline, love that "leave it up to the viewers " type of story/scenario. Me being optimistic hopes that both movies ended happily lol
@@lemonadx 9 is a film on Netflix and I guess you could call it a kids horror movie and it's amazing I really recommend that if you have Netflix u should go and watch it
Dyslexic Batnam It explains some of the personality, but I believe the creators themselves said the blue skin was because of something like "he likes taking walks out in the cold". Go figure.
Wow... can't believe they actually gave out badges for that, considering how they thought of the people working on that project as expendable and would often keep them on site longer than was healthy... the Soviet Union was great
Lily P Eh, it was history, and many nations have done questionable things to their people in the past (stopping here before I end up with a political rant, I'd rather not have another one of those). Also, TV Tropes says it's a Chernobyl First Responder badge, so he seems to have been on of the first there. It may be that he lived in Pripyat, and since the city was basically abandoned, it may explain why he had to move.
8:13 this is probably one of the scenes that I most remember of this movie I remember when I watched it as a kid, and I imagined if that happened to me, and then I realized I was crying.
I watched this movie when I was three I'm thirteen now. To this day it is still my favorite film. It's just so amazing! I can't express how much I love this film. It has been with me since my earliest years.
I watched it when I was about 4 and was scared for months.Nowadays I'm afraid to watch a another "scary movie" even if I probably won't be scared of it actually in case it scares me as much as this movie lol
One of my favorite things in this movie visually is when Coraline goes through the tunnel to get the Other Mother’s “Perfect” world early on in the movie the color in the tunnel is bright and eye catching,but when the truth about the other mother’s intentions become known to Coraline,the tunnel is grey and creepy,to show that the illusion of this “Perfect” world is gone.
Vistheweirdo I watched it all the time when I was young. The first time I watched it I felt tense near the end but that was about it. I still loved it and I never has nightmares from it.
Honestly, ever since I was a kid, and even now, everything about Coraline terrifies me. Like, just the animation alone gives me the creeps for some reason...
Ever since I first saw this movie i've always been obsessed with the dinner scene. Whenever she gets the mango milkshake from the spinning chandelier, THAT IS SO SATISFYING AND LIVES IN MY HEAD RENT FREE.
My 6 years old brother adores this movie. Well he has a strong stomach since he also loves watching Imprint and The Evil Dead (2013). Laughing all the way through especially the gruesome parts.
In the book is actually even more clear, Coraline is actually a regular kid wanting attention and her parents are regular parents but in Coralines mind shes being ignored sometimes but she thinks that bc shes a kid, (Spoiler tho) in the in book Coraline actually "defeats" the other mom with a trap in the "real" world in day time, so no, nothing is her imagination, its all real, damn she even calls the police when her parents disappear
3UR0M4TIC Z3R0 when I first watched 9 I loved it but I did and still feel like the death of his friend and further destruction could have been avoided if 9 didn’t awake the second and more dangerous machine
Yeah, they were both definitely a couple of the most whimsical experiences of my early childhood. And rewatching them is still enjoyabld, which is not something you can say about a lot of movies.
I still frequently get into conversations with friends about how incredibly well done this movie was. On a side note, anyone remember 9? It’s another animated movie that captures the same perfect mix of childish wonder and downright horrifying imagery. I’d highly recommend it for anyone who’s a fan of Coraline.
9 is a great movie. The “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” Scene is probably the best scene in any of the movies I have seen. The set-up and the execution of the scene are fantastic. And the fact that “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” is eerily playing in the background adds to it all.
I don't know man, I think it's reaching a bit to say its all a figment of her imagination. Coraline spends half the movie afraid and fighting the other world, its not all an escapist dream land. Feel like you just glossed over that to fit the "she imagined it" narrative.
There's soooooo much to this movie. All the theories about Wibey and his grandmother, the other world, the ladies etc... Also, the thing I liked the most about Coraline was Coraline herself. At the time this movie came out, almost all of the heroines in cartoons and tv-shows were the same: either perfect, good girls or wacky, clumsy girls. Then comes Coraline with all her attitude and I was instantly amazed! Plus I had such a crush on Wibey omg
This movie is darkness itself...forged by the most sinister of people, at the peak this age moral decadence. truly, a horrifying sight, one that made me shiver to the bone, forcing my spine to rip itself from my body as I searched for the warmth of my mother to save me from such a terrifying illustration of death, falsehood and deceit.
Can we just talk about how amazing and cohesive this movie is? 24 was reviewing it towards the beginning it didn't sound like those movies that don't really have anything interesting or a bunch of confusing things that happened, it just feels like an amazing story!
I really liked that song from her Other Dad I never knew that would have a foreshadowing later in the film. That's really creative use of storytelling. #DemPumpkins
Ugh. The old lazy "everything fantastical is just imagined" fan theory. No, everything in the movie actually happens. Coraline is not coping with her troubled adolescence by imagining a child-eating monster who kidnaps her parents and traps her victims' souls.
Yeah, I don't buy it either. His explanations don't hold... the snow, for example. They were gardening within a few days and her mom was buying her school clothes because school hadn't started yet. Not gonna be snowing. My daughter also pointed out that Coraline had a significant amount of cuts and scrapes from the ordeal. And of course, this dude brushes it off as something that "might" refute his theory but the fact of Wybie helping her in the end alone is enough to dismiss the whole notion.
I remember seeing this for the first time fondly and relatively vividly. It was a cool, overcast day, sometime late afternoon so presumably on a weekday after school, I remember going to the CVS to get candy with my mom to sneak into the theater, I also remember a fire billowing off in the distance but that's not really relevant of course (perhaps symbolic imagery if nothing else). I was nine years old, my parents had recently separated and I was living in our first apartment complex with my mom and sister. The mood of the day really set the tone for the movie well, and the things Coraline struggles with in it, feeling isolated with parents detached from her for reasons out of her control and adjusting to a radically new environment, really struck a chord with me more so than I was even aware of at the time. Whenever I return to this it feels so warm for these reasons, I can imagine the whimsical soundtrack playing over my own journeys exploring the dreary courtyards and corridors of the complex, and the bleak grey rooms of our own shoddy little 2 bedroom. Through it all my childhood sense of wonder nonetheless lived on, miraculously, and I think it was in part thanks to great movies like this that brilliantly speak towards the childhood condition.
I just love how this movie makes you feel. When everything is from Coralines point of view you get this cold, lonely, isolated feeling like she is the only one in those universes.
8:38 this scene was changed, it was originally coralline having a tea party with some of her toys in that place, then the hand tried to get the key and fell. Actually, that kid doesn't even exist in the book.
my teachers made us watch this IN PRESCHOOL. i literally had nightmares for straight up two months of my parents having button eyes, me being trapped in the other world, and the eyes being violently more ripped out of the other mother
love it how you showed images of Kubo to show that animation isn't only Boss baby x)) and that both coraline and kubo are made by Laika Laika really are my fav' studio ever ;o;
Years after watching the movie I hear the "I'm your other father" song at 3:34 in the video and man oh man I had no idea they might be giants did it until I heard it again.
I remember seeing this film in 3D in the cinema and I will never forget the needle at the beginning of the film looking like it was coming towards my eye. Horrifying.
he didn’t highlight the next line, that, when put together with the one he did highlight shows even bigger foreshadowing : “She’s as cute as *a button In the eyes* of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline”
@@neonmajora8454 I mean I can understand that the other father didn't want to hurt her and even said in one of the scenes and was being controlled by the other mother, I always felt bad for him in the film as a kid lol
I think it means that coraline would have buttons in her eyes soon but he is trying to tell her that it’s fine cause she will still look cute (or smthing)
I went to the theater to see this when I was 9 I was highkey terrified at the spider lady and my room had a little door shaped thing I was scared to lose my parents to the door
The part that really freaked me out as a kid was the last shot where it zooms out on the garden her real parents built and we see that it is shaped like the other mother.
A good trick to avoid button eyes is to follow me on Twitter @mmnuck
You horrible cheating boy
Seems like a trick
We all know you think button eyes are hot don't lie
but... but I want button eyes ●_●
Give us a missing link trailer already liaka
Coraline was just high on that poison oak the whole time
That's one hell of a plot twist!
that would actually make sense tbh lol
That's a cool theory
i want poison oak now
OKAY BUT THAT MAKES SENSE
Coraline is a straight up psychological horror and it still kind of scares me
honestly it still creeps the hell out of me
Same
I find this to be
More scary then the Texas chainsaw massacre and I watched that first then coraline
Andy-Matter I was a creepy kid so I loved this movie I never watched I just watched clips
@@josie5877 i dont think you have to be creepy to love the movie lol
Also, how come you've never seen it?
Just side note: Ig you can say that the whole song was a forshadowing message but the warning was the last part not "Shes as cute as a button" its
*"Our eyes will be ON Coraline"*
also he didn’t highlight the next line, that, when put together with the one he did highlight shows even bigger foreshadowing :
“She’s as cute as *a button In the eyes* of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline”
“She’s a doll” is a foreshadow as well.
In the song, the word “eye” comes up 3 times. Maybe this is a reference to the 3 kids.
@@moej3386 yea the whole song is litterly warning her, I just meant that last part I brought up bc it was like- just telling her striaght up oUr eyEs will be ON coRalineee
And isnt "peach" a warning as well?
Coraline is basically a horror movie, and a work of art, the book was also really good
YeetMaster42069 i read the book in middle school it was great
I loved how the book was from the perspective of Coraline, it made everything slightly more eerie!

@@tyler4475 yes, read it.
"You mean I have an other mother?"
"Of course you do! Everyone does."

It makes the shape of the Other Mother's hand.

I remember when I was 6 after I watched this scene I started crying and I hugged my mom so tight. It still makes me tear up a lil bit tbh

It really makes you respect ur parents
I cry every time I see that scene and I’m 16-

@Leah Bradford How dare she destroy Coraline. xD
I don't think her parents are bad people but are stressed out with having jobs like real people in life
They’re probably struggling to settle in to the new town.
This is why it's better to have more than one kid, because parents are always busy, when you have one child, you are all they have to entertain them at home. If they have a sibling, it's someone to play with & someone to talk to.
MissPop Coin You realize some people can’t have more than one kid sometimes it’s not a choice

I don’t get it, what is it then?
@@belarose5490 It isn't snowing outside and the parents were captured in the snowglobe, in that scene you see the snowglobe that they were in is broken, then the parents appeared, so that snow is from them being in the snowglobe. My theory at least, makes sense to me.
yeah and im pretty sure when she explains that they were in a snowglobe, they think she's making things up. when she points out the snow on them, they deny that there is any snow on them and just as they say that it melts away.
materile2210 a way to ruin the mood dude 😂
Netflix: *removes Coraline*
Everyone: And now you’ve officially carried it too far, buddy
I love the incredibles reference
At least there's paranorman
and they removed back to the future bruhh
Yeah, was genualy upset.
@@dexapfhfhndnd2
Nah it's back, go watch it. (Aus)
Here’s why I don’t agree with you on why you think what happened to Coraline isn’t real...the doll.
Everyone acknowledges that the dolls looks like her, and we see the doll being made before we see Coraline.
Thanks for saving my childhood
Also forget about wybies grandmother, whose twin sister went missing in the house and the doll looked just like her in the beginning
Exactly. It did happen, it was all the Other Mother's creation. There were actual consequences if Coraline decided to give up her eyes. She would be *dead*
The doll isn't in the book though
Also, the oher mother's hand! Obviously Wybie sees and interacts with it in the end of the movie, and I believe it's also part of the book as well.
The fake mom face was burned in my mind. I remember having nightmares of that women.
J Disgusting HAHAHAHAHA
I remember being absolutely petrified of Coraline (I love it now) as a kid and my sister would always chase me around with my mom's sewing kit
She driank peypey milk 🌚🌚🌚
Now imagine seeing it for the first time when you were 5 at night without your parents
That was my experience i’m 10 and I have never seen the movie untill the end
I hated turtle necks for a while after that, the only reason I'm cool with them now is because of how often kpop groups/members wear them.
"she notices a stupid little mouse"
ok, harsh
I saw the trailers and commercials for this movie back when it first came out but I never saw it until about a week ago and I’m glad I didn’t because I don’t think my 10 year old self would be able to fully appreciate how good this movie is but at the same time I do wish it could’ve been a part of my childhood experience.
see the thing is personally i dont experience much nostalgia from movies i seen when i was 10, that was kinda the cut off for an undeveloped sense of mind. I gained alot of independence when i was 10 even compared to 9, I could obviously understand the movie better at 15, but movies like the polar express, toy story 2, brother bear, open season, etc. are very nostalgic and i watched those when i was 3 and 4
Oh it definitely was a gift to have as a child
@@lightningmonky7674 yeah...a gift of absolute horror from the plains of hell
As someone who's watched this since I was 4, I'm addicted to horror, trying to find more movies like this.
M.C I’ve seen that movie so many times but I still get enjoyment out of it! I’ve seen videos on how long the movie took to make and why and it’s absolutely magnificent! The clothes took I think up to five months if I remember correctly to make and even the little stuff like using pink painted popcorn on the trees to make it look like cherry blossoms is interesting
I remember reading the book after seeing this film when it first came out, and was delighted to find that the film was surprisingly faithful to the source material while only changing what improved on its foundation.
It’s also one of the first stories meant for kids that reminded me of films like Inception or Memento, where it makes you wonder what is real and what is simply the main characters imagination, which is something I applaud for it being able to convey to a young audience.
raison d'être first time I watched pans labyrinth I really didn't like it (I was young and it was creepy) later I thought it was okay but the last time I watched it I couldn't stop crying when the yellow light at the end happened.
Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland did the same
thing.
raison d'être . That got me feeling the same with the little grl in pan's labyrinth and coraline, love that "leave it up to the viewers " type of story/scenario. Me being optimistic hopes that both movies ended happily lol
I feel like coralline and nine are the two “kids movies” that are actually horror films
Agreed, also love your tweek pfp
I'm actually so happy that 9 is on Netflix I just wish that coraline was on Netflix ;-;
@@SCP-zd9zb what is 9?

i no joke just cackled and coughed for eight minutes because of that.
The Vlogsters lmao same sis
Random subtle fact about Bobinski. That badge he has? It's a Chernobyl cleanup badge.
It's just a little thing never really touched on that's just there. It speaks volumes about him though.
Dyslexic Batnam Nothing explains an entire backstory, but it does give us a little window into the kinds of things he may have seen.
Dyslexic Batnam It explains some of the personality, but I believe the creators themselves said the blue skin was because of something like "he likes taking walks out in the cold". Go figure.
Wow... can't believe they actually gave out badges for that, considering how they thought of the people working on that project as expendable and would often keep them on site longer than was healthy... the Soviet Union was great
Lily P Eh, it was history, and many nations have done questionable things to their people in the past (stopping here before I end up with a political rant, I'd rather not have another one of those). Also, TV Tropes says it's a Chernobyl First Responder badge, so he seems to have been on of the first there. It may be that he lived in Pripyat, and since the city was basically abandoned, it may explain why he had to move.
Saying that everything is just her imagination is *such* a boring take
Exactly it's such a cliche at this point ..
Like it’s not it it’s better if the thing that happened that it was real and everything because that’s what they want it to be … I think
*notification*
Oh cool, new video from Nick. I'll make sure to watch it late-
*it's about Coraline*
AHHHHHHHHH *clicks*
I clicked on this video because I thought it said the Art of Cocaine 0/10 no cocaine.
8:13 this is probably one of the scenes that I most remember of this movie
I remember when I watched it as a kid, and I imagined if that happened to me, and then I realized I was crying.
"Stretch her shit to some angel hair noodles."
That's my favorite bit.
I watched this movie when I was three I'm thirteen now. To this day it is still my favorite film. It's just so amazing! I can't express how much I love this film. It has been with me since my earliest years.
You watched this when you were three?! I watched this when I was six right when it came out and I was so scared!
Finally, someone who was my age when they watched this!
Pfft. I watched this when I was 10.
19 now, and I still love it.
I was four when it came out and I was scared of the trailers!
I watched it when I was about 4 and was scared for months.Nowadays I'm afraid to watch a another "scary movie" even if I probably won't be scared of it actually in case it scares me as much as this movie lol
One of my favorite things in this movie visually is when Coraline goes through the tunnel to get the Other Mother’s “Perfect” world early on in the movie the color in the tunnel is bright and eye catching,but when the truth about the other mother’s intentions become known to Coraline,the tunnel is grey and creepy,to show that the illusion of this “Perfect” world is gone.
am I the only one who loved the film since i was young?! the garden scene was one of the most magical moment in the film experience for me..
Vistheweirdo I watched it all the time when I was young. The first time I watched it I felt tense near the end but that was about it. I still loved it and I never has nightmares from it.
Luka Hawkins lol
Honestly, ever since I was a kid, and even now, everything about Coraline terrifies me.
Like, just the animation alone gives me the creeps for some reason...
Yeah it’s just enough un natural it’s disturbing
It’s actually claymation. I know it’s nit picking but they’re technically different
@@tanner6446 uncanny valley
I get the same thing but with whatever studio made fantastic Mr fox and the isle of dogs.
Claymation is creepy a lot of the time
Ever since I first saw this movie i've always been obsessed with the dinner scene. Whenever she gets the mango milkshake from the spinning chandelier, THAT IS SO SATISFYING AND LIVES IN MY HEAD RENT FREE.
It looks so delicious... especially the chicken/turkey
I still cant believe that the age to watch for this film is 6
i watched it with 8 or 9 and i was scared for a whole freaking year
Albus Dumbledore I watched it at 10 and I’m still surprised I didn’t get nightmares
Albus Dumbledore this film scarred me..
Im in my late teens and it still terrifies the shit out of me. Those damn buttons and spider mother is nightmare fuel!
My 6 years old brother adores this movie. Well he has a strong stomach since he also loves watching Imprint and The Evil Dead (2013). Laughing all the way through especially the gruesome parts.
Same but I was slightly creeped out during like 1 week maybe but I didn't have nightmares. Idk how I didn't but I'm happy
All on her imagination? Really? I've always hated these kinds of theories...
I'm pretty sure the creators intended for it to all be real, it just also symbolizes Coralines mental state and stuff like that.
same. especially after all of the theories that give evidence showing not only is it real but the backstory behind it
Danilego honestly same
Same
In the book is actually even more clear, Coraline is actually a regular kid wanting attention and her parents are regular parents but in Coralines mind shes being ignored sometimes but she thinks that bc shes a kid, (Spoiler tho) in the in book Coraline actually "defeats" the other mom with a trap in the "real" world in day time, so no, nothing is her imagination, its all real, damn she even calls the police when her parents disappear

Spiderman Into The Spiderverse
Toy Story
Up
9
3UR0M4TIC Z3R0 when I first watched 9 I loved it but I did and still feel like the death of his friend and further destruction could have been avoided if 9 didn’t awake the second and more dangerous machine
3UR0M4TIC Z3R0 9 is a great movie I miss the old days when animated movie meant something instead of them just being cash grabs
Thats 6, but agreed
This is kinda embarrassing but when I was little I thought meet the Robinsons and astro boy where the same movie
Isle of dogs is really good too
Conspiracy: what if she never actually returned to her "real" dimension? what if every time she just kept going into a different dimension?

I remember watching this movie at my grandmother's while eating Pizza Hut. To this day, I still don't fully trust my grandmother, nor Pizza Hut.
The doll scene at the start always made me feel like I'm watching someone getting skinned.
Coraline and Spirited Away are my favorite animated kids movies ! They´re something special
Yeah, they were both definitely a couple of the most whimsical experiences of my early childhood.
And rewatching them is still enjoyabld, which is not something you can say about a lot of movies.
For me it's Coraline and Monster House!
Judi
Yup and they both creepy
Spirited away a kid's movie? I couldn't watch that till 13!
I still frequently get into conversations with friends about how incredibly well done this movie was. On a side note, anyone remember 9? It’s another animated movie that captures the same perfect mix of childish wonder and downright horrifying imagery. I’d highly recommend it for anyone who’s a fan of Coraline.
B Skizzle is that the film with Elijah Wood? I think I remember it. He's a little sack dude right?
Yeah! It also features the voices of John C. Reilly and Jennifer Connelly, among others.
I remember that movie. Haunting yet beautiful!
9 is a great movie. The “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” Scene is probably the best scene in any of the movies I have seen. The set-up and the execution of the scene are fantastic. And the fact that “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” is eerily playing in the background adds to it all.
Yo I remember the name but what was the plot about?
not gonna lie this movie gave me trauma. that spider scene when she was chasing coraline through the web with no *FREAKING* EYES
Wasn't kubo and the two strings made by the people who made coraline?
Keddiels yes Laika studios
ParaNorman and The Boxtrolls too.
Yes
if it was they make some gooooooooood movies
No
I don't know man, I think it's reaching a bit to say its all a figment of her imagination. Coraline spends half the movie afraid and fighting the other world, its not all an escapist dream land. Feel like you just glossed over that to fit the "she imagined it" narrative.
dude play beyond the sleep the entire game is about the kid imagining scary shit to cope with his mom's probems
@@skuldug1250 drinking problems
the reason people are depressed these days is because Coraline was removed from Netflix :(
Edit: 860 LIKES???!!!
Is there anywhere else I can watch it 😭😭😭
@It’s Giulia’s World what
It was removed? I just checked and it's still here??? maybe it's cuz I have canadian netflix
i never saw the movie but i saw the book
It’s Giulia’s World why would you watch a scary film before bed???
We're just gonna skip over how Coraline almost maimed Mr.Bobinzki when he jumped off the house?
To be fair, he did almost land directly on top of her.
You spelt castrated wrong
There's soooooo much to this movie. All the theories about Wibey and his grandmother, the other world, the ladies etc...
Also, the thing I liked the most about Coraline was Coraline herself. At the time this movie came out, almost all of the heroines in cartoons and tv-shows were the same: either perfect, good girls or wacky, clumsy girls. Then comes Coraline with all her attitude and I was instantly amazed!
Plus I had such a crush on Wibey omg
Maria M I like how Coraline actually had personality to her and you could tell she wasn't perfect yet she was a likable character.
I have such a crush on u RN😘
its the type of movie you can watch like 5 times in a row and still be amazed by details and the plot
This movie is darkness itself...forged by the most sinister of people, at the peak this age moral decadence. truly, a horrifying sight, one that made me shiver to the bone, forcing my spine to rip itself from my body as I searched for the warmth of my mother to save me from such a terrifying illustration of death, falsehood and deceit.
r u tryna say the movie scared you so much at such a young age u went to ur mom or am it trippin on acid rn

Can we just talk about how amazing and cohesive this movie is? 24 was reviewing it towards the beginning it didn't sound like those movies that don't really have anything interesting or a bunch of confusing things that happened, it just feels like an amazing story!
I really liked that song from her Other Dad I never knew that would have a foreshadowing later in the film. That's really creative use of storytelling. #DemPumpkins
Ahh yes the art of ... scaring the absolute shit out of children.

Waynimations bac hein ?
Just found you BUT I LOVE EVERYTHING CORALINE
The score of this movie is a wonderful audio representation of the visuals.
Ugh. The old lazy "everything fantastical is just imagined" fan theory.
No, everything in the movie actually happens. Coraline is not coping with her troubled adolescence by imagining a child-eating monster who kidnaps her parents and traps her victims' souls.
Severo Cairon its like every fantasy movie has this kind of theory.
Yeah, I don't buy it either. His explanations don't hold... the snow, for example. They were gardening within a few days and her mom was buying her school clothes because school hadn't started yet. Not gonna be snowing. My daughter also pointed out that Coraline had a significant amount of cuts and scrapes from the ordeal. And of course, this dude brushes it off as something that "might" refute his theory but the fact of Wybie helping her in the end alone is enough to dismiss the whole notion.
Yeah, I mean obviously thematically it's meant to be a metaphor for those things, but as far as in the world of the story it *clearly* was all real.
exactly. not everything is a fucking conspiraacy
And wybie's grandma had the same experience as coraline, I mean her sister died!!
2:59 SJSJSMSN DID YOU REALLY JUST DO THAT TO ME?!?
Cassiopeia Luna was it below the waist?
I remember seeing this for the first time fondly and relatively vividly. It was a cool, overcast day, sometime late afternoon so presumably on a weekday after school, I remember going to the CVS to get candy with my mom to sneak into the theater, I also remember a fire billowing off in the distance but that's not really relevant of course (perhaps symbolic imagery if nothing else). I was nine years old, my parents had recently separated and I was living in our first apartment complex with my mom and sister. The mood of the day really set the tone for the movie well, and the things Coraline struggles with in it, feeling isolated with parents detached from her for reasons out of her control and adjusting to a radically new environment, really struck a chord with me more so than I was even aware of at the time. Whenever I return to this it feels so warm for these reasons, I can imagine the whimsical soundtrack playing over my own journeys exploring the dreary courtyards and corridors of the complex, and the bleak grey rooms of our own shoddy little 2 bedroom. Through it all my childhood sense of wonder nonetheless lived on, miraculously, and I think it was in part thanks to great movies like this that brilliantly speak towards the childhood condition.

Gman X-11 same
Same, yet I'm 10 now. But I was hella scared as an 8 year old.
I just love how this movie makes you feel. When everything is from Coralines point of view you get this cold, lonely, isolated feeling like she is the only one in those universes.

Years after watching the movie I hear the "I'm your other father" song at 3:34 in the video and man oh man I had no idea they might be giants did it until I heard it again.

I don’t think the “Cute as a button” part in the song was foreshadowing, just a pun and reference.
he didn’t highlight the next line, that, when put together with the one he did highlight shows even bigger foreshadowing :
“She’s as cute as *a button In the eyes* of everyone who ever laid their eyes on Coraline”
The whole song is foreshadowing
@@pissapocalypse Yep, and likely a warning.
@@neonmajora8454 I mean I can understand that the other father didn't want to hurt her and even said in one of the scenes and was being controlled by the other mother, I always felt bad for him in the film as a kid lol
I think it means that coraline would have buttons in her eyes soon but he is trying to tell her that it’s fine cause she will still look cute (or smthing)
Coraline blew me away with its stop motion creativity and it's important themes
I went to the theater to see this when I was 9 I was highkey terrified at the spider lady and my room had a little door shaped thing I was scared to lose my parents to the door
The part that really freaked me out as a kid was the last shot where it zooms out on the garden her real parents built and we see that it is shaped like the other mother.
