And when Moana went through that storm in the sea, she woke up alive at an island. She could've drowned but she had the heart of Tefiti. When Moana jumped into the undersea world, she hit the rocks like a rag doll... yet she lived,
The "drug" (as you called it) that they put in the songs of this movie was Lin Manuel Miranda. He is great. And I hate to disagree with you, but even the song "Shiny" was great.
it made me think of all the times i lashed out at the people who were only trying to help me because of my trauma, i am so lucky they saw what Moana did but this movie is what made me realize it, I did a lot of thanking to a lot of people after this movie ♥
I'm honestly so surprised this film didn't get you crying, because the granny ghost visiting her after she gave the heart back to the sea and the I AM MOANAAAAAA will always make me BAWLLLLLL girl
Lin Manuel Miranda (hamilton) wrote the songs for this! Moana's dad's singing is voiced by Christopher Jackson who is Washington in Hamilton. Loved your reaction
@@niallnochill Always so interesting how music, especially, can hit people differently. "Shiny" was one of my favorite songs from Moana, while you didn't like it. Like you, however, I *really* enjoyed all the song lyrics in Tuvalu, and that exposure to Polynesian culture!
I third this! I love that movie! Definitely both a feel good and a bit of a cry movie at some points! I’m glad it’s getting attention. The animation is so great and the story is really interesting.
I noticed this before, the animators did such a great job on making something like the ocean, without any face or body, be so sassy, or frustrated, or happy like how long did it take them to do that part to perfection🥴
the way you kept hating on "Shiny" broke me lol it's one of my favorite songs from the movie! I'm glad you at least came around on Hei Hei, though, haha 🤩
omg i know exactlyyyy what u mean by not appreciating these newer disney movies on a first watch! i didn't enjoy the live action 2015 cinderella and thought it was cheesy but as an adult rewatching it i sobbbed, it had such a positive message 😭
I love moana so much! I had just watched the second one yesterday and almost cried because of seeing Polynesian culture and being represented in cinema. 💞💞Lowkey made me homesick 😪😪
This movie is my childhood. I remember going to watch it the week it aired in Spain, and crying when the grandma died. I kid you not, I watch this each time I feel down, it feels like home and I'm not even Polynesian. I love it with all my heart!
My favorite thing about Te Fiti also being a lava monster is that volcanic soil is actually what makes Polynesian islands so lush and fertile! So it makes total sense that she can be both such a giver of life and a scary, dangerous creature - the takeaway is that we should totally respect and take care of our natural resources and not destroy or take unnecessarily from them or we risk upsetting the balance of nature 💚
the scene where moana sings to te ka and is walking across the ocean floor... literally my favorite singular scene maybe ever. the visuals. the sound of the song. the lyrics of the song. the many meanings that could be pulled from it. the entire story of the movie leading up to and coming after it... ive yet to see something better tbh
I just watched this on Patreon, but wanted to leave a like and comment just to interact with the content. I am very excited for a plausible Moana 2/Vaiana 2 reaction in the future!
i need to let you know you became my current comfort youtube channel !! i am obsessed with your videos especially since you reacted to all my hyperfixations ! 🩷
love Moana she IS that gorllll! love that you’ve been checking out all of these animated movies! here are some recs that are non disney just in case u ever want to branch out a lil but still staying in the realm of animation: Over The Moon, Vivo, The Mitchells vs The Machines, Klaus - all fantastic movies with emotional stories
So amazing!!! I can’t wait for Tangled reaction! Tangled has such good music and a great villain! I wish you would react to Raya and the Last Dragon. Raya is my favorite Disney princess! It will happen eventually. I’ll keep holding out lmao
Niall!!! Once again, I'm tearing up with you and enjoying every minute! As a lifelong Disney fan, I agree that that is some darn good storytelling! Now, you said Disney hasn't missed yet so I need to warn you about Frozen if you haven't seen it already. The storytelling is shockingly, disturbingly weak in Frozen. It is at the absolute bottom of Disney movies for me and that is a long long list. I was born in '87, grew up during the Disney Renaissance. I remember seeing Lion King, Aladdin, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, etc all in theaters. Frozen is awful.😖 Saw it in theaters with my bestie. We were so disappointed.
WATCH TANGLED NEXT PLEASE!!! It's my favorite Disney movie by far, and I know you'll love it. Rapunzel is just as much of a baddie as Moana is, but with a bit more of an innocent charm/chaos. And we all simp over Flynn.
Fun fact an actual person voiced hei hei, his name is Alan Tudyk. Also Disney did a good job with diversity in the people that voiced the characters and are representative of the cultures shown. The Rock is Samoan and they based the design of Maui off of his grandfather, who was a Samoan wrestler if I recall correctly. Disney’s did really well on this film, I only hope that the sequel will be just as thought out.
Shiny is an awesome song! Maybe knowing who wrote it and being a fan of their comedy helps you get it more? I dunno, I just think the entire film is perfect
The only things I'd change about the film is giving it a larger central cast (like part 2 did, but better) as well as making Moana more hesitant about her destiny, with her father's backstory and almost drowning herself making her fear the sea. While she helped her people, it was assisted by her own desire to explore.
The scene where her grandma passes away is a hard scene for me to watch because I lost my beloved Gammie (grandma) 6 years ago. She and I were very close and when she passed it made a big hole in my heart that is still healing 6 years later. I know she is living in paradise with her Savior and I know I will join her one day. That thought keeps me going and helped the pain of losing her not to hurt as bad.
How you weren't bawling throughout is beyond me, I'm always a total mess by the end of this film😭🥰 Moana and Brave are my absolute top favourite Disney Princess films. Moana and Merida are such fucking trailblazers and there's no stupid love interest involved. I love them both🙌🏻❤️
Nial be like "take me to the beach!" I been loving the imagine dragons x ado Collab on that song. And then there's me, down in new Zealand, in the middle of summer. It's damn hot lately.
7:27 that boy got some moves 25:04 are you okay girl- 25:22 you dead girl 25:28 never mind she’s not dead 25:42 yummy KFC 26:42 and me says no- 29:06 oof girl are you okay?
Idk why people hate on Shiny. Granted, it is surronded by absolute BANGERS in this movie, but it is still quite a nice catchy song... I have to say, experiencing the first one again like this makes me realise that the second one really did not hit as hard, I already forgot shunks of it :(
Shiny isnt my favorite song in the movie, but i appreciate it anyways The lines that really got me were when he was exposing Maui's trauma. It was still a vibe ❤😂
Hey Niall, i know these reactions take a bit of time to watch, edit, and try and find sponsers for (if possible), and i prefice this request this way because i know even if you did do a reaction to this movie it wouldn't come out for a while; but i would really love a reaction to the netflix movie Klaus (2019). it my favorite christmas film, i watch it every year, and i try to show as many people it as i can because its such a well told, funny, and beautiful story. on top of that, i think you would LOVE the characters, they're all so sassy, it's right up your alley.
Grandma is life goals. Hopefully in 2025 I'll be known as the towns witch 32:06 I only like the song in the German version. Although I like quite a lot of songs from this movie only in German.
loved this reaction as always!!!! I would love to see your reaction to the k-12 movie of Melanie martinez! The visuals are stunning and there's allot of very important subjects it talks about. It's basically a movie made of her whole album.
I just watch moana 2 last night and I actually quite enjoyed it , the only thing was I thought some of the songs came out of nowhere and felt abit out of place but over all I thought it was a good follow up im not going to say to much as don’t want to spoil it
The reason why Moana’s grandma died immediately after giving Moana the heart of tefiti was because the heart was KEEPING HER ALIVE
.i never thought about that😢😢
And when Moana went through that storm in the sea, she woke up alive at an island. She could've drowned but she had the heart of Tefiti.
When Moana jumped into the undersea world, she hit the rocks like a rag doll... yet she lived,
OH MY GOSH?? You just blew my mind
Maui's tattoo about his parents throwing him in the ocean is on his back. It's quite literally his BACK story 😅
Omg
Oh god😂😂
"How would you explain Moana to someone?"
Just a girl. A boat. A chicken. And a dream 😂
you forgot the demigod shapeshifter too lmao.
And a pig that needed more screen time
6:52 as a Polynesian, yes 😊 there was a period of time where our people stopped voyaging & this story tells what we believed to have been the reason.
The "drug" (as you called it) that they put in the songs of this movie was Lin Manuel Miranda. He is great. And I hate to disagree with you, but even the song "Shiny" was great.
Jemaine Clement always slays
Agree Shiny is a bop!
42:21 I still remember my first time watching this and sobbing at “this does not define you”
Me crying right now lmao it’s like she’s speaking directly to me and saying I see you 🥹
it made me think of all the times i lashed out at the people who were only trying to help me because of my trauma, i am so lucky they saw what Moana did but this movie is what made me realize it, I did a lot of thanking to a lot of people after this movie ♥
I'm honestly so surprised this film didn't get you crying, because the granny ghost visiting her after she gave the heart back to the sea and the I AM MOANAAAAAA will always make me BAWLLLLLL girl
he got close during that scene too!
Lin Manuel Miranda (hamilton) wrote the songs for this! Moana's dad's singing is voiced by Christopher Jackson who is Washington in Hamilton. Loved your reaction
I DIDNT KNOW WASHINGTON VOICED HER DAD!?!?
@zoemiller5765 just singing but yeah he kills it
a shame he had nothing to do with the second movie
THANK YOU I WAS GONNA COMMENT THIS! Same reason the music in Encanto is so damn good
13:23 Lin Manuel Miranda. That’s what they put in their songs
I was literally gonna say that 🤣🤣
I WAS GONNA SAY THAT LMAOO 😭😭
Oh my God can't wait for the Tangled reaction!! Literally my favorite Disney princess, prince, and movie in general 😁
How dare you 😭
"Shiny" was based off David Bowie's style, and the crab is SO flamboyant like Bowie. It was a tribute after he passed. 💔
I loved the visuals and the character… just did not care for the songgggg sorry 😭
It was mid.
@@niallnochill Always so interesting how music, especially, can hit people differently. "Shiny" was one of my favorite songs from Moana, while you didn't like it. Like you, however, I *really* enjoyed all the song lyrics in Tuvalu, and that exposure to Polynesian culture!
@@niallnochillShiny is my favourite song in this movie 😢
No but I love shiny is my favorite in the hole movie BUT BUT BUT in spanish I don't love it in English 😢@@niallnochill
It doesn't matter how many times I watch this movie, the end where she gives the heart back ALWAYS gives me full body shivers. It's so powerful.
OH MY GOD TANGLED FIRST PLEASE!!! ALSO YES, MOANA IS SUCH A GIRLBOSS!!
NIALL PLEASE FOR ALL THAT IS GOOD IN THIS WORLD PLEASE PLEASE REACT TO RISE OF THE GUARDIANS YOU WILL LOVE IT
YASSSS
I know you probably won't get in another vid before christmas time, but you should really react to Klaus!! It's an outstanding christmas movie!!!
OMG YES PLEASE
I second this!
I third this! I love that movie! Definitely both a feel good and a bit of a cry movie at some points! I’m glad it’s getting attention. The animation is so great and the story is really interesting.
BUMP!!! 🤩🤩🤩
I noticed this before, the animators did such a great job on making something like the ocean, without any face or body, be so sassy, or frustrated, or happy like how long did it take them to do that part to perfection🥴
the way you kept hating on "Shiny" broke me lol it's one of my favorite songs from the movie! I'm glad you at least came around on Hei Hei, though, haha 🤩
42:25 Auli'i Cravalho's voice is so beautiful and soothing omg
omg i know exactlyyyy what u mean by not appreciating these newer disney movies on a first watch! i didn't enjoy the live action 2015 cinderella and thought it was cheesy but as an adult rewatching it i sobbbed, it had such a positive message 😭
“She’s an ocean girl at heart.”
Yeah well if she wasn’t her parents should’ve named her differently 😂
Soul is that girl; It always puts me in my feels. THAT ONE NEXT!
Yay Moana!!!!!! Hope you do tangled next so we can all crush on Flynn rider ❤
I can never unhear that Moana's father is George Washington in Hamilton...
I love moana so much! I had just watched the second one yesterday and almost cried because of seeing Polynesian culture and being represented in cinema. 💞💞Lowkey made me homesick 😪😪
So exctied for tangled!!!!
WE NEED THE TANGLED REACTION!!!!!
This movie is my childhood. I remember going to watch it the week it aired in Spain, and crying when the grandma died. I kid you not, I watch this each time I feel down, it feels like home and I'm not even Polynesian. I love it with all my heart!
Inside out 2 was intense lol
I’d like to see the Soul Reaction first, the end is so good. ❤
My favorite thing about Te Fiti also being a lava monster is that volcanic soil is actually what makes Polynesian islands so lush and fertile! So it makes total sense that she can be both such a giver of life and a scary, dangerous creature - the takeaway is that we should totally respect and take care of our natural resources and not destroy or take unnecessarily from them or we risk upsetting the balance of nature 💚
I was raised by my grandma so when i watched this movie i bawled my little eyes out. Good movie, will never watch it again.
Moana is the movie I watch when I'm sick lol, this reaction came out when I'm currently bedridden with illness
Forget Hayhay. Shiny was the one catching strays.
the scene where moana sings to te ka and is walking across the ocean floor... literally my favorite singular scene maybe ever. the visuals. the sound of the song. the lyrics of the song. the many meanings that could be pulled from it. the entire story of the movie leading up to and coming after it... ive yet to see something better tbh
Se's actually even more boss in the sequel. Like she's honed her way-finding skills and everything.
Just wanted to say: I always appreciate your commentaries for the gentle vibes.
"Its the middle of winter-" **Sobs in 40° heat in Australia.**

TANGLEEDDDDDD MY FAV
Yess upload Tangled first!
Absolutely love all of youre reactions!!

She had to go past the reef *AT NIGHT* because the moon’s pull makes the tides *HIGHER* & her gran knew that
Honestly at first I hated ‘shiny’, but after a couple years listening to it, it kinda grew on me, especially after knowing it’s a tribute to Bowie.
Shiny is an awesome song! Maybe knowing who wrote it and being a fan of their comedy helps you get it more? I dunno, I just think the entire film is perfect

The digs at Shiny lol
A random Schaffrillas appears

It's ok Niall I didn't really like Shiny either 😅 great reaction as always ❤
Idk why people hate on Shiny. Granted, it is surronded by absolute BANGERS in this movie, but it is still quite a nice catchy song...
I have to say, experiencing the first one again like this makes me realise that the second one really did not hit as hard, I already forgot shunks of it :(
Your accent REALLY came out when you said “you would it’s your grannie’s dying wish”
Why has youtube hide this video for me for 6 min❤👁️👄👁️
SIGMA POSTTT
Shiny isnt my favorite song in the movie, but i appreciate it anyways
The lines that really got me were when he was exposing Maui's trauma.
It was still a vibe ❤😂
Shiny really grew on me more and more as time went on. Kinda rough on the first few watches though
The drug they put into these songs is called Lin Manuel Miranda. Musical genius.
Not tamatoa catching all these strays..... disrespectful
I keep forgetting that's it's freaking cold in the Northern hemisphere rn meanwhile here we had like a thirty nine degree day like a week ago TvT.
0:52 Inside out 2! 😁
I loooove Moana. Even shiny! Do tangled next!
