Cloud Atlas - Scottish Pub Fight Scene (HD)

[@sumiatheangel9397]

This is the most Scottish thing I have ever seen in my life.

[@protey117]

THANKS a bunch for spelling it - I couldn't make out what was the old man saying %) :D

[@Pilusmagnus]

To all the people who criticize this film, I answer Hugo Weaving acting as a nurse having thrown a big barrel at her face by a Scottish dude in a bar. You just can't fight that back.

[@furter189]

This movie has some deep moving scenes, and some comedic and stupid scenes at the same time.

[@Ganurath]

Even Cloud Atlas had a silver lining.

[@suzdbombcat4006]

That Scottish dude is Jim Sturgess isn't it?

[@MunirMatsuo]

@@suzdbombcat4006 Yeah its actually Jim Sturgess who plays a good guy in every time.

[@stevi6044]

you say this when there’s already a scene of a critic getting thrown of a balcony

[@erica.5698]

This scene was seen by most to be comedic relief, but I found it just as symbolic and important as any of the timelines in the book/movie. Mr. Meeks was thought of as the outcast; the weak link in the friend group at the nursing home. They could’ve just as easily left Mr. Meeks behind and not risked turning around and getting caught, but they didn’t. They risked their freedom to save their own because they are good. Then Mr. Meeks, who they thought was a meek (pun intended) member of the group ended up being the most courageous one of them all, which created the ripple effect of them escaping, leading to his story being depicted as a movie, leading the waitress to discover his movie, motivating her to seek her own freedom, and eventually to the rest of mankind

[@Dexroid]

Absolutely perfectly put. Spot on.

[@maryp4579]

I honestly didn't see the full impact (or the pun in the name) of Mr. Meeks until you mentioned it. Great observation! And a reminder we don't know our own potential ripple effect.

[@elTrebol_Larry]

Wow, never thought about it with that perspective lol that’s insane

[@owenjones7517]

Funny thing, is that English people don't have this superior attitude that some of the Anglophobes from Celtic countries accuse them of having. Particularly Rugby fans, England fans are the most down to Earth. It's the Irish and Scottish fans with a chip on their shoulder who have a really shitty attitude.

I love Timothy's story was a light-hearted antidote to the rest but still managed to maintain the themes of the rest.

[@Tommykey07]

I only just learned that the nursing home he escaped from is the same building that was the mansion of the composer in the 1936 segment. In an earlier life it was his home and in his next life he escapes from it.

[@KevinsKontentKorner]

@@Tommykey07 Interesting, also pretty ironic since he was confined to a wheelchair in the older time hence escape would have been impossible

[@joshk2181]

[@BrooklynJackBlue]

The Timothy Cavendish plot could have been the ENTIRE movie as far as I'm concerned, like it was a movie in the original plot.

[@LeRinkRat]

LOVE Mr "I Know, I KNOW!!!" Meeks. my favorite character in the whole movie and this is definitely one of my favorite scenes. you could also say the same for the "An Orison of Sonmi~451" (2144) scenes. THAT would have made an excellent stand alone action movie.

[@Magrat_Knoblauch]

Justin Kalman This commemt is four years old. Nevertheless I would like to answer to it quickly 😅 The thing I like about it is that in every video of a different timeline there is always one comment like this, telling in their opinion the movie could be only about this timeline. That tells me that Cloud Atlas did a very wonderful job, and that none of the timeline is dull, but always appeals to different people. It shows, how great the movie is. 😊

[@jmikeyj4]

I think that's the point

[@turmuthoer]

That's why I love this film. One minute, it's a gritty sci-fi story set in a futuristic dystopian Korea and then in the next it's a light-hearted comedy, following a group of British pensioners as they attempt to break out of an old people's home.

[@mattgieslerrocks]

I think all of the plots in the movie would have worked as stand alone films. It seems like each plot in Cloud Atlas was a condensed version of all of them if they were stand alone movies. A part of me wishes the producer and director made Cloud Atlas as a six movie series instead of one for more box office revenue and world building around Cloud Atlas as a whole.

[@gamemasterultima]

I just love seeing people stand up for each other. The way the Scottish man pushes his way to the front and alleviates his fears of being taken. He shakes his head no “oi pop. We will not let you down.” The way he understood that in that moment those people needed help and he was there.

[@WillScarlet16]

Arr there noo troooo SCOTSMEN in the hoose?

[@johngalt200]

Cloud Atlas taught me many things. It taught me that a soul can be many things over the lifetime of the universe. It taught me the dangers of power and the abuse thereof. And it taught me that Scotsmen are Uruk Hai.

[@rouskeycarpel5097]

+johngalt200 I don't think this movie is about reincarnation. I think it's about the fact that there are still daily occurrences that are results of the actions and words of people who lived 1000 years ago and the actions of words of us who are living today will have consequences hundreds of years down the line if the earth still exists.

[@CuttingEdges]

Rouskey Carpel Personally I agree. Though the film does seem to hint at reincarnation with the whole theme of the dreams.

[@Zombiewithabowtie]

Well the Scot with the scruffy hair and orange tache who throws the first punch is Jim Sturgess, who plays Adam Ewing and Hae Joo Chang at other points in the film, but I can't vouch for the rest of the patrons and publicans.

[@windsaw151]

I noticed Kati Karrenbauer in the crowd. She's a very german actress who became famous as an inmate in a popular german television show about a women's prison.

I really loved Timothy’s story. Mainly because it took place in modern times like ours, and it made me feel at home during the movie. The other stories gave me an anxiety, but in a good way. Felt like Timothy’s story could’ve have been a comedy movie on its own. It just gave me feels, because it was the most ordinary story out of the extraordinary in the film. And the Irish/Scottish music playing at 1:22 just topped it off! Really loved the movie.
