I believe Russel's parents are divorced. He mentions his mom earlier in the movie with the 'quiet game' bit, so we know she's in his life. His dad isn't around often and "Phyllis says I bug him too much," whenever he calls, and that Phyllis isn't his mom; so they're either his father's gf/new partner or a receptionist or something along those lines.
Russell implies that his dad used to play a more active part in his life before something changed. That could easily have been the divorce itself, but it's also possible (and my personal headcanon) that he got a new gf or wife who feels "uncomfortable" with him having a kid from a past marriage and influences/manipulates him into not spending (much) time with Russell.
@@KaizerHiwatari Tru, tru. That'd also make sense tbh - Phyllis seems to be the only one picking up Russel's calls (enough to tell him he's 'bugging' him (the father)) so that's def a solid line of thinking
@@KaizerHiwatari This is exactly the impression I got as well. That Russell's dad was a lot more active in his life until his father's new wife/gf started running interference.
@@r.a.fgattaiguy845 Trying to make up for not being present by buying presents.
I always thought maybe Phyllis was his nanny
Carl was trying to take their home to Paradise Falls, so he could sit there with no food, power, communication, until the end. He had no plan beyond that point. He was giving up. It’s wild that this movie is designed to make you feel annoyed, like Carl, but ultimately what you are hoping for is to get Carl to the end… instead of looking for a new adventure with the unusual family forming around him. It’s an incredible tactic by the creators, once you realise the right plan was never to hope for Carl to succeed. Russell, Kevin, and Dug were all symbols of love that he needed to let into his heart again.
He really planned to die in the chair😢
In my opinion, it's about letting go. He was obsessed with the idea of fulfilling Ellie's goal/adventure book, but what he understood in the end is that, "it's not about destination but the adventure itself" and also that he had to move on and let go of Ellie.
We see that Ellie had written a small message on that book, for him to have a new adventure and move forward when she's gone.
I could see how you were irritated with Russel and the bird because we were all on Carl's side with his single-minded pursuit of getting to Paradise Falls, and those things were getting in Carl's way. That is the way the movie was designed - to make you care more about Carl's promise to Ellie than anything else. This makes it all the more surprising when we find out that Carl was chasing the wrong goal. The house - the pictures - the chairs - the money - being in Paradise Falls - that all didn't matter. The only thing that really mattered was Carl going on with his life as a new adventure. That is why the emotional climax of the movie was when Carl, after achieving his goal of getting his house to Paradise Falls, and still feeling empty, starts to look wistfully at Ellie's Adventure Book, and discovers the extra pages she added after "Stuff I'm Going to Do." By the way, I think she added those pages when she was sick in the hospital. If you go back and look at that hospital scene you will see a tape dispenser and scissors on her hospital night stand - things she might have used to add those pictures at the end. This change of goal is similar to other Pixar movies. In "Soul", Joe Gardner achieves his goal of playing piano with Dorthea Williams, only to discover the same sense of emptiness when he thought he would feel elated. In "Inside Out", Joy spends the whole movie trying to prevent Sadness from taking control of Riley, only to find out that Sadness was essential. In "Onward", Ian spends the whole movie trying to meet his dead dad with magic, but when he finally gets his chance to meet his dad, he realizes that his brother Barley is the one who really needed to see him and Ian gives up his chance to Barley. But I think this move, "Up", does it the best.
The beginning with Ellie absolutely kills me everytime. She was his happiness.
I agree 100%. I can't watch that scene without crying my eyes out!
Ellie would never want Carl to choose the house over Kevin, or Russell, or Dug, or a new adventure. It’s hard to let go… but Ellie knew it would be, and left him a reminder. 😢😢😢😢😢
There is so much of Carl AND Ellie in Russell 🥲 But Carl is too blinded by grief to see the shy and lonely kid, or the kind and open adventurer, in that little boy.
Carl Fredricksen is definition of "The older I became - the stronger I get!"
Jounlumoump
Zimpukouko😢❤
Just a fun fact: "Paradise Falls" actually exist. It's the Angel's Falls or El Salto Ángel located in Venezuela. An as a venezuelan it made me so happy to see that represented there.
Oh wow! I had no idea it actually was real. How amazing! Well done research again Pixar!
Easily one of Pixar's greatest masterpieces, and an inspiration to Old men and Women everywhere, or at least that's what my Grandpa thinks of this movie whenever we watch it together
Ellie and Carl worked at the zoo together for years. He sold balloons and she was a zookeeper/tour guide
4:50
“Oh they got married.”
“Well that was easy.”
*BRO I FEEL YOU LMAO!!* 😂😂
One of my favorite Pixar movies ever
Sameee
I love Up because it tells one of the best love stories in its first five minutes, and all without a single word being said. Now that is the pinnacle of storytelling.
Muntz did NOT survive that drop, lmao
GUYS! Muntz was so obsessed with completing his mission that he wasted his life away, trapped in the middle of nowhere with no companionship and losing his mind! Don’t you see? Carl was making the same mistake, but having people and animals who truly loved him is what saved him!
18:27 the triple face palm was perfect 🤣
Honestly, guys, it isn't Russell's or Kevin's fault for getting Carl dragged into such a mess. In fact, they all just got dragged into it. It was whole Charles' fault.
I'm sure you all know that but I just want you all to realize that in the first place Kevin wanted to live peacefully with her little ones like any other wild animals.
However, Charles wanted that bird to clear his name even though it's been like decades - not much people would even remember him. With also how much the society has changed, I don't think they're gonna like the fact he captured a poor momma bird for fame.
As for Russell, he doesn't even realize how deep his loneliness is. He's a child who's growing up in a home where no one could spend any time with him and teach him him some stuff.
It IS okay for y'all to be annoyed at Russell for "creating more problems" for Carl (I get annoyed too, to be honest). But in the end of the day, he's just a really compassionate boy who wanted to help Kevin get back to his family. I even think he subconsciously understand Kevin's desperation to just be with her family and live happily because ... deep down that's what he wants too.
Anyway.... Charles is going to such lengths for nothing, which is kinda messed up on his side because imagine searching for one thing your whole life only for it to end up the way you didn't imagine it to.
So, even the end he got is a mercy. I mean, it's better than finding out your whole life is waste of time, right? Well, he got what was coming to him either way. He couldn't let down his pride, he was too greedy, and not to mention he abused the poor dogs.
I would understand that it was just his passion if he only went on for like a few years. So, what he did was too much. I mean, at that point, how can he be sure it still even exist to be able to prove himself? He was too obsessed.
The collective pain when he threw the GPS out the window😂😭
I agree with you guys the kid was annoying at times. Like this man didn't ask for any of this, he just wanted to fulfill him and his wife's dream. At the end of the day it ended how it should have and I like that the kid now has a father figure in his life.
Carl had paradise falls as his goal and promise he needed to keep to Ellie, both the young Ellie he grew up with and the old one he lost.
The issue is that Ellie wouldn't have chose the house and paradise falls, she would have met Russel, Doug, and Kevin and felt the motherly instinct to nurture and protect them.
He was so obsessed with a promise he couldn't finish that he forgot who Ellie was as a woman. Which is why he realized that he was misguided, and let go of the house to take care of his new family. It's why the house ended up back at paradise falls because Ellie was finally at rest.
Now that’s gangsta right there. Prune juice in gas tank 9:26
12:56 actually it is feasible, Carl just need much, much, MUCH, more balloons to lift his house.
I am normaly not a big fan of animated movies but this one always gets me! You were exactly right when you called it an emotional roller coaster.
The dog you asked about is a Dobermann Pinscher. They were bred by a tax collector to bring with him on the job as a protection dog. My grandfather had a red one named Bear. Sweetest dog, a really great breed.
Also, it's more than Munce is crazy, He's went insane with paranoia and a lust for redemption as an 'Explorer.' He thinks Carl is lying and there to hunt the bird before He can. He's murdered (at least) two people to keep that chance at fame all to himself.
You guys should check out Ratatouille, The Prince of Egypt, Coraline, Tim Burton's Corpse Bride, and the last of both Kung Fu Panda and How to Train your Dragon and Monster House, The Incredibles, & Monsters Inc.
YES! The Prince of Egypt is amazing 😭 the ost!!!
I know they did not call the snipe a peacock 😂😂
I don't think I've ever seen anyone hate Russell (this is not criticism, I just think it's interesting). I always felt like he had better priorities than Carl, he wants to save something that has a life and soul, whereas Carl wants to save material possessions.
This movie made me cry AGAIN. Caught me off guard... :')
We almost cried too 😊
I think it should be remembered Carol's family was filled with serious people so he had a goal and was focused on. Meanwhile Ellie's family was full of spanking people ( one even shot a gun in church lol ) so Carol at the moment he git to paradise falls must have realized that Russell is like Ellie. I think Ellie would've also chosen to help Kevin if she was there. Because it's all about the adventure.
A lovely movie, again another great pick, good on you guys ❤👍🏿
!!! Oh my god!!! Dug's inflections! they sound just like... God... damnit, Nappa!
Y'all watch these movies with such joy! ❤😂
this is the only movie to make me cry
In my opinion they made the best story in the opening scenes . I wish there was a prequel movie just on Ellie and Carl’s “adventure” ♥️ and it should be called . ☁️growing up ☁️♥️
REACT to Big Hero 6 next!!!!
We will 😊
Funny. Russell is one of very few kids I actually really like in a cartoon.
Even despite his poor decisions and being naive.
That Line….Till Death do Us Part is So True😢
‘The Incredibles’ has to be next. It’s a must
This film! the first part always makes me cry and even seeing this clipped version is making me cry.
The interesting thing about this movie is that Ellie had stopped caring about Paradise Falls. She was enjoying the life she was living and the everyday adventures of her life. She and Carl weren't even saving for it anymore because it wasn't their end goal anymore. Really, if Carl hadn't bought those tickets right before she passed, he may not have been as wrapped up in his guilt over not taking her. However, because she died right before she was 'supposed' to go, it went from 'oh well' to an unachieved dream that got twisted into guilt and regret.
The beginning of this movie always makes me cry. Even watching this reaction I was tearing up.
Love you guys reactionsss❤..its a rare thing to find people you actually like to talk over a movie lol...you guys are my top 3
Loved the reactions!
Highly recommended Ratatouille, Incredibles, and Big Hero 6!
This reaction was pretty much what I'd expected, but I'm surprised we didn't get more puns from Rafael. LOL A very heartwarming tall-tale of a movie. Obviously not to be taken too seriously. It even includes a snipe, which is a joke creature (like jackalopes) used to keep kids occupied and out of your hair. (There are also darker versions of the snipe, but you'd have to wiki that.)
When you guys compared Russell riding the leafblower to Harry Potter it reminded me that Rafael was watching that series. Are you guys still watching those, or am I tripping?
The Tall Black Dog is called a “ Doberman “
What a beautiful reaction from such handsome wonderful men!❤️ hello from Michigan USA.😍
The part at 15:34 were Mr. fregreson didn't let Russell in the house when he ask to come in was mest up until he decides to let him in afterwards.
first time i watched this i cried through the entire thing. My grampy raised me so It was very emotional for me. I only watched it all the way through once for that reason.
The rain is heavy tonight
Not me clicking this knowing I can never ever ever get through the first section without sobbing.
How sad they got when she died 😔
Ed Asner did an excellent job as Carl. You don’t often have retired people starring in movies.
Great reaction guys, have you ever seen the incredibles 1 and 2? Those are also great Pixar movies
No but we will react to it 😊
@@AkinReacts oooh I can’t wait, love your channel btw
@@AkinReacts would you consider reacting to the Wild Thornberrys Movie (2002)? Have you seen it before?
i find most children very annoying in real life but i like the Russel character here. Firstly, because, though talkative and a bit pushy, he's much more well-behaved than the kids I've met in real life. Secondly, his gags and quips are quite funny. But mainly because without him, I'll only be watching an elderly man fly his house, sit on his couch while waiting for his house to reach the top of the falls, find his wife's message, and get stuck there in isolation without anyone to have new life adventures with, which would've been against his wife's true wish.
I always say they should make a prequel called growing up and it be about Ellie and Carl
life adventure
One of the best pixar movies
Amazing
Definitely on my top 3 animated movies! ♥️
😭 I love this movie sm
Yeah, he could fly over the storm, but did you guys knew that in real life most of the thunders goes over the storm clouds? Only few of them are the ones that we see 😁
Ah yes, time to cry.
Kindly finish the Kungfu panda Trilogy 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I'm not crying because of the intro -- I'm crying because I had planned to fall asleep to a 'Conjuring' reaction, and realize I didn't search for 'Up' in awhile - now I won't sleep at all, I'm terrified.
It's my considered opinion that the OG Pixar movies are some of the finest specimens of story telling ever produced
So I just randomly searched up “Up Reaction Video” because I wanted to see a reaction on the movie for some reason at the moment and I find you guys did one less than 2 weeks ago. Idk I thought that was pretty cool lol
im early lets goooo ps you should react to wall-e
I SECOND THIS, WALL•E is a blessing and fantastic movie in the Pixar lineup! I wonder what they would make of the captain…
I totally agree.
We will 🙌🏿
@@AkinReacts YESSSS VICTORIOUS DAY :D
It just shows that Russel has very busy parents or have problems. That lady at the end wasn't his mom I think? Please someone clarify
They looked alike they could be, but it does say that his parents are divorced
i believe it is his mum. about "phyllis": i don't think she's even his stepmum. he says that she "isn't his mum", and i always thought that it meant that she was his dad's girlfriend. and from his comment that she (phyllis) told him that he buggs his dad too much, they most likely don't have a good relationship. so it would be weird that she would come to his ceremony
His parents are divorced/separated. But I don't know if it was ever explained who was Phyllis? I always thought it was Russel's guardian since his dad is away a lot. Or maybe she was his dad's girlfriend? I'm not entirely sure on that.
@@lucyjennings5563 Yeah I always thought Phyllis was their butler? I don't know, the name just fits.
@@lucyjennings5563 Phyllis is the stepmom of Russell’s. When he said that Phyllis says I bother him too much meaning the stepmom says that he calls his dad a lot because he’s not around much
Guys, that house was tested I saw it years ago.. they tested and indeed flyid but the ballons were different
6:36 WHY'D HE SAY IT LIKE THAT? 😭 It reminds me of Kevin Hart's "Damn." 💀
I would really like to see you guys react to big hero six, it's still one of my favorites after all these years
Turn your logical thinking down 😂 I like this reaction a lot of people cried
🤣
Awesome
UUUUUUPPPP 🎈❣️
Omg yayyyyyyyy
15:30 i have a feeling he describe what he find is let's just say someone did their number 2 business on the sidewalk but not at home
OMG, I'm sorry but I've to point this out. You guys ask alot of questions!!! Wew.
Don't know why this popped up in my recommendations.. but loved your reaction😊😊 #newsubscriber
Nice video !!!
You guys should do “Brave” next
Wow you guys did really well to react to this movie considering that you're blind. Like holy crap good
Russell 8s a bit like Carl's and Ellie's kid. He is as enthusiastic and annoying s Ellie when they were young and a bit reserved like Carl. That's why his head is round and square.
Y’all should watch step up
3 whole grown men sitting watching Disney/Pixar movies…..I LOVE IT! 💛💙💚
I said this was going to be a ride.
I understand not liking Russell his character us forced comedic relief by just dumbing him down he has his moments like his talks about his dad but it can be frustrating his lack of awareness. Lol
You should definitely react to Trollhunters: tales of Arcadia, it`s one of the best shows out there.😃
Alpha is a Doberman
First 🤣❤
Edit: Thanks for heart ❤😸
この作品のクライマックスは冒頭5分
これこそ「全米が泣いた」でしょ😢
4:57 the W and L community has already breached out our defense.
Pls react to Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs hopefully in the near future!!!!
Hasta el momento son los únicos a los que odian al niño 😅😅 cuando era niño también odiaba al niño 😂 pero en realidad, el anciano toma la mejor decisión de ayudar al niño, ya que, la aventura qué tenía que hacer ya lo logró, y lo que su esposa quería es de que siga haciendo más aventuras, por eso el opto por ayudar al niño. Además tener en cuenta que el niño, ps es un niño, es por eso que es normal que solo se preocupe por el pajaro... Pero bueno, tmr, yo estaba esperando a que lloren, me dejaron llorar solo :v aunque bueno tengo que admitir que siempre lloro cuando veo esto, apesar qué soy hombre como ustedes, se que no tiene nada de malo, pero, hay que ser sinceros, los hombres, lloramos a solas sin que nadie nos vea. Pero bueno ahí dejo mi like, es una hermosa película animada. 👌
So can we do Shrek next ???
We will 😊
How to aim an air balloon? For a hot air balloon, how often, and how much flame you use controls the altitude. To make it go the way you want, you rise and fall until you find a breeze going the way you want it to. For a Helium or Hydrogen balloon (like the Goodyear blimp, or like the Hindenburg,) you would need controls. They add a motor to push in the direction and they have airplane-like controls to move it around too.
Hey I love you channel, but the black strip across the top of the movie is kind of hard to watch.
But keep it up, you guys have great reactions and good insights too.
Did Pixar make a better movie than this? Such a great adventure, such heart, and a wonderful story that gives hope to all.
still waiting for Disney Pixar Cars (2006) 🙏🏼🙏🏼🔥🔥🔥
Watch COCO
Do u have patreon? I would like to watch your reactions but I would like full versions of it. If you don’t have Patreon will you consider getting it and uploading all your full movie reactions on there?
58:04 😂😂
🤣🤣
Let’s normalize men being able to say the word "cute" lol
What about ratatouille ?
We’ll react to it for sure 😊
Gotta do wall-e next
