This Old Children’s Movie Makes Me Very Uncomfortable

  • "The Incredible Mr. Limpet" is a children's movie from the 1960s that my mom made us watch when we were younger. Looking back, it was a very bizarre premise. As with a lot of movies it was based on a book, so I guess we can blame the author for this masterpiece / train-wreck. If I didn't think it was a classic before, I definitely do now. Hit me up to be in the remake.

The rest of the movie is made up of his dying thoughts of another life, under the sea. What could've been if I were a fish. Quite profound, quite touching. RIP limpy... RIP

    As a Seasoned Fishkeeper (aquarist if you will). 6:22 None of these fish should be kept together. You have goldfish, Anglefish, and gourami. This is mixing tropical and non tropical fish together (those that need heated and unheated water). I dont see a heater or a filter. So in normal circumstances these fish would last a week (and also that tank is just ugly and poorly arranged with way to many fish).
    Glad they had room in the budget to hire and listen to a fish expert.

    Probably Don Knott's most popular movie. I once heard him say in an interview that it was movie most often referenced by fans when they met him. Compare it to the story arc of Captain America, he was rejected by the draft (4F), but through a phenomenon of physical transformation became an indispensable war hero.

    I ended up riffing the movie the whole time and was confused why my dad liked it so much... but I guess it has something to do with the bizarre nature of it - zoophilia and such things were not a widely discussed or known thing back in the day, so the idea of a man wanting to be with fishes was viewed as funny/silly...

    My dad came up behind me and said "is that the incredible Mr. Limpit?"
    I was like, yes? And he responded with "that it a great movie!!! You remember it?" (to my mother) "yeah, that's the one about the fish?" "Yeah, that's a great movie, you should watch it!"
    Wtf? Why did you know the name by just the way the fish looked? Like it was a scene where just Mr. limpit was swimming around, nothing crazy. I am so conserned for the collective of our parents now.

      They didn't have as many movies growing up, especially animated ones.

    I can’t believe I just found this piece of my lost media! Watched this in my early childhood and couldn’t find the name of the movie for 17 years. Thank you!

    He will probably freak out when he finds how fish baby’s are made like Fry from futurama.

    This movie was a childhood favorite of mine. Watched it as an adult and it didn't hold up. Still a classic.

    Why are children movies so weird, like the special effects and design is so interesting, yet so unappealing, yet appealing, I love your videos and I can’t wait to watch this one because I’m super interested in movies and film especially old weird ones! And I love all of your videos

    Maybe this is the movie that inspired Guillermo del Toro to make The Shape of Water.
