[@mallardtheduck406]

This is a Timeless Movie...So many funny part's, cool cameos, and Great writing. more movies like this need to be made. I am 42 now, but was 16 when this came out, saw it at the theater. I balled my eye's out like a baby when Bill Pullman's Angelic wife came to him, I loved the line, "French fries or pizza is not a breakfast food", adding a touch of humor. I admit she was beautiful and had a crush on her. The part where Casper showed up in his human form for his selfless deed, along with the music, truly made this a Masterpiece. This Movie deserved so much more than what it was given.

[@Harri927]

This movie is one of my favorite Halloween movies ever and It's part of my childhood. The soundtrack is amazing thanks to the late James Horner RIP.

Jordan Hill's song "Remember Me This Way" was great. That song doesn't get enough praise.

[@mallardtheduck406]

That was a Phenomenally beautiful Song...the music video should've added the beginning piano sequence, to lead to the Crescendo. I had Jordan Hill's Album CD at the time, so many great song's on it. "How Many Times", "Too much Heaven" with the Bee Gees, and the Casper theme, "Remember Me this Way". I think Dianne Warren wrote the music for the song.

9:40 Friendship is a real town in Maine, even if it wasn't the one used in the film. Also, there's a lot more to Maine than just Stephen King; it's more likely the location scout picked Maine because of how beautiful it is in the fall, and it was cheaper to film here at that time (see also: Jumanji)

[@filmbuff2777]

I actually had the Sega Saturn version of the video game when I was a kid, & it was much different to the Super NES version. It was a 3D puzzle exploration game where you went around the manor & had to solve puzzles. I loved it. It was also on Playstation.

[@lunarose698]

I love the music for this movie, especially in the third act when Casper becomes human for a short time. I love that this movie adds subjects such as grieving and dealing with death. Those are mature things that a movie like this can do. It's really sad to hear that Casper died of pneumonia because I've had it three different times growing up and I could've very well lost my life during one of them.

Here's some bonus facts for Casper (1995): According to TV Tropes, before Christina Ricci got the part of Kat Harvey, the actresses that were considered were both Scarlett Johansson and Kirsten Dunst. Also according to TV Tropes: The actors that were considered to play Dr. James Harvey before Bill Pullman were: John Ritter, Tom Hanks, Dennis Quaid, Kurt Russell, Robin Williams, Jim Carrey, Tim Allen, Rick Moranis, Steve Martin, Michael Keaton, Martin Short, Chevy Chase and Phil Hartman. The actresses that were considered to play Carrigan Crittenden before Cathy Moriarty were: Glenn Close, Kathleen Turner, Carrie Fisher, Miranda Richardson, Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Pfeiffer, Rene Russo, JoBeth Williams, Debbie Harry and Elaine Hendrix. The actors that were considered to play Paul "Dibs" Plutzker before Eric Idle were: Hugh Laurie, Rowan Atkinson, Rik Mayall, John Cleese, Michael Palin, Bill Murray, Alan Rickman, Bryan Cranston, Jason Alexander, Michael Richards, Daniel Stern, Gene Wilder, Stephen Fry, Patrick McGoohan, Leslie Nielsen and Gregory Peck. Kat was originally named Wendy.

[@queenbee9286]

This film is seriously underated I remember going to see it at the cinema with my dad and two older sisters when it came out and and we all really enjoyed it I've since introduced this film to my niece and nephew who have also grown to love it truly this film is timeless and it gives me nostalgia every time I watch it also I find myself smiling at the 90s reference in this movie every time I watch it truly they were wacky times I miss the 90s that's why I watch Casper cause I feel like I'm right back there right lol thanks for this vid minty 😊😉💕

[@cloudmix]

this movie always makes my eyes teary. I loved the music in this movie.

[@brandonspain12345]

Bonus Fun fact: Christina Ricci had since disowned the movie, and said "Looking back, that film sucked. It made no sense, I'm supposed to fall in love with a ghost? How does that work? He's a cartoon and 50 years older than me." But she would later admit she was tired staring in kids movies and wanted more raw roles. (You can she her expression when she was asked if she would do more sequels on a ET interview and it shows.) This is one of if not the reason why Casper 2 never happened in the late 90s. Basically she became the Bill Murray of Ghostbusters 3, which is a damn shame.

[@feliciajenkins5041]

We finally get his back story. There was always the theory he was Richie Rich that committed suicide.

[@brandonspain12345]

The original 1940s cartoon hinted that he suffered depression and always was indelible that he was dead. He wanted to make friends so he can feel like he's alive again and when he's rejected, he tries harming himself, by lying in train tracks, drowning himself with a rope/rock, or jumping off a cliff. Only to be reminded he's already dead and is damned to suffer. I never got the sense that he was the ghost of Richie Rich considering he and Casper crossovered together in comics. But I am happy they went back to Casper originally being a human than being born as a ghost by magic or whatever.

[@akufromthefuturejmm6237]

It always bugged me how people called the lion king remake "live action" It wasn't live action. It was 100% animated. Even the setting was animated. Live action means a living being is on film. It's super realistic animation, not live action

[@Optimegatrongodzilla]

[@Vaporvice84]

As a kid growing up during the 90's who's always loved movies and going to the theater, there were a lot of movies during that time that either disappointed me or left me underwhelmed (either lackluster sequels or movies that I set my expectations too high for). This was NOT one of them. A 90's classic for sure, and a perfect example of taking an old property and modernizing it without making the characters the butt of the joke. Throughout the 90's there were WAAAYY TOO MANY movies based off old tv shows where they simply placed these characters into the present day (Brady Bunch, Beverly hillbillies, Leave it to Beaver, etc...) and the joke was always the same: Wouldn't it be funny if these old, outdated characters were living among us today and had no idea how to socialize in the modern world? It's a miracle the Flintstones movie actually took place in the time/setting the show was set in.

[@QuincyKane]

I love this movie; I think it's perfect for what it's supposed to be! It's got great characters and atmosphere; I love the set design and music, and it's just a "feel good" movie! I always watch it in October! Thanks for the video!

[@Thatguy55595]

My favorite part is when Casper turns into the boy at the end and dances with Kat. I get so emotional when I see that part and when her mom appears as the ghost wow I can’t put into words how good it is

[@benhuether5474]

My theory as to why Casper can't crossover even after his fathers death is that he's a very special kind of ghost. Everyone is put on this earth for a reason and Casper was so sweet and friendly in life that the mortal realm could not bear to be parted from his memory when he died so young. Instead of being stuck with "unfinished business" he has a new lease on life (or should I say afterlife) of spreading friendship as a spirit.

[@silverdaleks1]

Yeah i remember hearing the Beetle juice theme in one of the trailers ( though I didn't actually watch Beetlejuice until several years later) and in another trailer for Casper they used music from the land before time, which was also composed by James Horner.

[@BlankCanvas88]

I rewatched this for the first time in years the other day, and I think it holds up brilliantly. Casper's Lullaby is still one of the most haunting, beautiful songs I've ever heard. I also think it was a wise choice that after the sad scenes of seeing Kat's mom and Casper in human form, to end with a bang on such a fun outro song. So many great choices. And the cgi is honestly so good considering! I think it helps that they're allowed to be done in a cartoonish way b/c I think the hardest thing to pull off with cgi are realistic human characters.

[@nicksorenson940]

Casper is probably one of those few cartoons turned live-action movies I grew up with that still kind of works for me apart from the nostalgia. Maybe because Casper and the trio are able to retain simple cartoonish designs while also looking like "real ghosts", and in the context of the movie you're still able to buy into the reality that they had been real people once and aren't just cartoons when you see live actors like Bill Pullman and Cathy Moriarty appear as ghosts themselves. Other times when they try to adapt other classic non-human cartoon characters to live-action that are more flesh and blood than Casper I'd often find the end result to be less appealing than the initial cartoons when translating them into CGI, with more realistic looking eyes and hair, making you question if they should have even been adapted into live-action in the first place. I may not have been hearing very good things about the new Tom & Jerry movie that came out about a year ago now, but I have to give them props for actually wanting them to still look like the same 2D cartoon characters in CGI for a change when they could have easily gone the realistic route again.

[@locnar1]

There's a deleted scene where Kat looks through a photo album and see a picture of Casper's uncles in human form. also one of Zelda Rubinstein reprising her role as Tangina and the uncles shoot her up the chimney.

[@brandonspain12345]

The full script is online and there's SO many scenes taken out. One scene I wished was in the movie was near the end where Casper's about to bring Dr. Harvey back to life but the Trio stop him, not wanting him to be a human again and wants Casper to do his chores instead. Casper stands up to them, growing larger with a demonic voice shouting at them "AND DON'T CALL ME BULBHEAD!" With the Trio flying away in fear. This would've concluded Casper's sideplot of him finally standing up to himself and the uncles get what they deserve. Some scenes would also be reinforce into the 1996 animated series like the song "Fugedaboudit"

[@flatfingertuning727]

I think it might have been worth mentioning the song and dance number that was cut from the film because of the impracticality of animating it at the time. I wish it had been included as a bonus track on the soundtrack CD, which I bought the day I saw the film, since I just positively loved the music. CGI wasn't "the only" way to bring characters into the movie, as evidenced by 1964's "The Incredible Mr. Limpet" or 1977's Pete's Dragon. Unlike Roger Rabbit who was a cartoon *in the story*, the title characters of those other films would likely have been done as photorealistic GCI except that no such technology existed in the 1960s and 1970s.

[@brandonspain12345]

I believe it was confirmed by Aykroyd or whoever that Casper (1995) is canon to the Ghostbusters universe. So this movie is a weird spinoff to the Ghostbusters movies along with Ghostbusters 2016. Let that sink in.

A quick thing that I’d like to point out and this is something I just noticed while rewatching this movie: In the scene where Casper and Kat kiss and Casper turns back into a ghost, as well as the Halloween scene in general, one of the kids/party guests is dressed as Fred Flintstone. You can see it at 8:59 I like to think that this is somewhat a reference to the Flintstones movie since both films were made by Amblin.

[@kabluey_louie1718]

Even when I was a kid, I thought it was stupid that Casper (as a ghost) was depicted as a child (maybe 7 or 8 yrs old) then when Casper turned human, he was made to be a teenager. That just made zero sense to me

[@brandonspain12345]

I hated the ending. It just feels in character for Casper to want to be a human. It seems like they were going with the message of giving up the things we want the most to make someone happy, and learn to appreciate who you really are like the cartoons message. Only to ruin it by making him a sexy 90s teen for a few seconds and have millions of fangirls gush over him, wanting him to stay as a human forever. It would be like if in Spider-Man 2, Doc Ock sacrificed his dream and died only for NYC to still blow up. And this was a time when every movie had to have a sequel, What if this had a sequel? How tf could you make a ghostless Casper, and his adventures as a human. Who would want to see that!?!

I loved this movie. I wish there was a sequel that stayed true to the original. I always felt like this move was a true drama film for a child.

casper's cartoons where not very happy go lucky. his first short, after scaring people away instead of making friends, casper tries to kill himself several times.

The shorts from 1945 - 1949 Were really dark and had a gritty post WWII atmosphere. Even the house Casper stays when meeting his first friends looks broken down. It felt grounded and real at times. None of the animals he befriends talked either. I wish there was a new Casper movie that sticks more closer to what Seymour Riet originally intended for the character and the more realistic grounded world.
