The DARK Reason Camilo Received The Gift Of Shapeshifting...

The Sad Reason Camilo Received The Gift Of Shapeshifting | The Reality Behind Disney Encanto’s Gifts
Despite only having a few lines throughout Encanto, Camillo Madrigal was arguably the funniest character in the movie and probably the most entertaining member of his family. His powers to shapeshift into anyone that he could imagine was not only an aid to his comedic genius but may have even been the result of it. And in this case, Camillo may have been asking himself, “Who’s the real me?” You see, like the rest of his magical family, Camillo’s powers likely manifested themselves as an extension of one of his biggest personality traits. Sadly for him though, it seems like it may have been stemming from a deep dark fear that not a lot of fans even realized Camillo faced.

The original ending of the movie was supposed to be about Camilo finding out who his true self is but then Disney decided that the ending had to be about Mirabel so the original ending was scrapped and we got the ending that we saw in the movie instead

[@_-drowsy-_]

What was the original ending script?

[@paulettefrazier445]

WHO WAS HE???

[@michaelcollins2030]

He was also planned to be Mirabel antagonist

[@freeamericanthinker558]

​@@michaelcollins2030 of course.

[@j3ssii._xx]

@@michaelcollins2030 dude villain camilo would have been so cool

[@CAROLINELobo-y3j]

I think that Camilo was any teenager trying to find there way in life he probably only shapeshifted so that we he could impress his parents Pepa and Felix.

[@annnichols3091]

I didn't suffer from middle child syndrome because I'm only my father's middle child. Our older half-sister and half-brother didn't live with us, so I grew up as the eldest. Mom's middle child was her only son.

[@crashban4t.f.s.b783]

Call Encanto 2 EncanDOS and the third movie EncanTRES!!!

[@lisam8831]

What was the reason Dolores got hearing powers

[@doll9340]

Gossip maybe?

[@Cookiemxms]

If we take the same example as this teory, maybe Dolores was afraid of what people said about her and wanted to hear what people say about the family? Idk

[@Oge-n2t]

Poor guy 😢

[@RanposPowderedDonuts]

And this is one of the reasons the genderfluid community took one look at him and took him. Cuz we all at least once have felt the same.

[@nicolebaii8447]

Well he was 5 when he got the "gift" so i doubt it was because he didnt know who he was.......

[@worldyworld8]

evangelion type shii

[@fayelacoste7104]

I think Camilo both had the ability to entertain people and has an identity crisis himself. The two older grandchildren Isabella and Dolores were both doted on until Luisa came, then Camilo and Mirabel. As we can see the grandchildren's order by age and the way Abuela treats every child, we can see that before they turned five years old, they were all doted on (this is evident in the opening scene) but there's more emphasis on Isabella as she is Abuela's lookalike when she was younger. Now then, Camilo may have jumped into every hobby/skill/trait/ability he can learn and in turn used that switching to entertain and help his relatives. Also, he may have thought of differentiating himself with his older sister and his older cousins that's why he kept switching abilities. In time, that may have given him an identity crisis though as a child. His crisis may have also pushed him to get used to his shapeshifting but as a teen, I think he is still in that zone where he's exploring what he can do and what he wants in his life. Even Isabella have not reached the full potential of her power if not for Mirabel.

[@cookiecomments846]

Another thing to note is he is the oldest boy. Abuela might see Isabella as her look alike, but the first son tends to be seen as an ‘heir’ and well her son isn’t there to fill that role. So it would instead be shifted to Camilo

[@simonnetceline9554]

camilo look like pedro...i wonder if abuela...no...she could'nt... but maybe some elder in the village might ask him to... no way...

[@DiscoTimelordASD]

If that town had a therapist they could retire comfortably after counselling The Madrigals.

[@Nurichiri]

I think that was supposed to be part of Mirabel's gift. She got both of her sisters to open up by accident.

[@april_swan]

I hope we get to see more of Camilo in Encanto 2 cuz we barley got to see him in the first

[@ThePinkDragon]

we need more of him

[@ThePhantomStinker]

Personally, I think the explanation of Camilo's gift is simultaneously a lot simpler, yet also a lot deeper. Casita itself is very much a member of the family that looks after the others just as much as any other, maybe even more so because of Abuela's tendency to be emotionally distant and passively abusive. It saw how all of the second-gen Madrigals were struggling under the constant pressure Abuela put them under, and with the third-gen Madrigals, tried to be more merciful with the gifts given to them. Casita's first try was with Mirabel, whom it tried to spare from that pressure completely by giving her no gift at all. But that backfired tremendously and instead resulted in her becoming Abuela's scapegoat and emotional punching bag. So when it was Camilo's turn, Casita did give him a gift. And there are two possible motivations one might consider Casita to have had in giving it to him. The first was to possibly have made it impossible for his gift to become his identity by having his gift to quite literally be to be any identity. If that's the case, it also failed because Abuela found a use for him anyway. The other was for Camilo to let all of the other Madrigals see themselves the way others see them, and more critically, as they are as people -- the way they speak, act and emote -- and not in terms of their gifts. But again, this didn't work because Abuela just put him to work as the entertainer, and whatever deeper meaning might have been gleaned from his impersonations went over their heads. Finally, Antonio was given the gift to speak to animals. Which might have been just a ploy to ensure that there was at least one other Madrigal who knew (by way of the rats) that Bruno was still with the family (the other being Dolores), but I think was more likely intended for the animals to be Antonio's extended family -- a whole host of animals who might be completely ignorant of the fact that Antonio's ability to speak with them is unusual and who value him exclusively as a person. Basically, it's my feeling that Casita was trying, harder and harder, to let the next generation of Madrigals feel free of burdens. But it never worked, until finally, after so many years of Abuela making Casita feel less like a home and more like a prison, it finally set the whole family free in one drastic last resort: By ending its own existence. Yup. I'm suggesting Casita committed suicide.

[@laralenz6062]

I like your theory, but Camilo is older than Mirabel. She had her ceremony after him. When Mirabel got gifted by a villager, he said something like „I hope this ceremony will be better than the last one - which was yours“ to Mirabel. Means she is younger then Camilo and he had gotten his magical gift before Mirabel didn’t get one.

[@stellaris5726]

​@laralenz6062 True, but maybe the theory would still work if Camillo was Casita's first attempt at helping relieve the stress via the reasoning mentioned above and when that failed, Casita tried to help Mirabel by not giving a gift. It would make sense and also gives Casita time to see how that plan turned out so she could try again with Antonio? I think it's an interesting theory

[@AmeliaC-e8o]

Oh my god I love this idea!

[@lahlybird895]

I don't think he could have possibly had a middle child syndrome. Antonio couldn't have come around until he was around 10:00 which would be way after his gifting

[@stephanieflores277]

this is a good theory and it makes sense thanks for the video

[@bobburt8218]

I always wondered why they were given their magical gifts at age five. Now, after watching this theory, I wonder what their magical gifts would have been if they had waited till they were older and their personalities were fully developed.

[@Maoa_woah]

No stop my heart is 💔 this is not a video anymore now

[@free_at_last8141]

I didn't like or dislike his character, but I didn't like that he was the only son of the family. I would have preferred Luisa to have been the son of the family facing the expectation of being the dependable stoic that I think so many men experience.

Please you guys should stop complicating matters, there's nothing wrong with Camilo, Camilo is Camilo😅 can't you see his true identity? It's just as who he is in his normal form, he only do shape shifting depending on his mood. So please stop confusing yourself n stop confusing others. After all i like Camilo, he is my secret crush 💘😅

I feel wen he was 5 his gift went of rapidly and he reely coudent figer out how 2 return 2 him self I fink dis cos his hair isn't like his mum/dad or both

[@kyttynkross1121]

in the bonus features content, the commentary mentioned that there was actually a scrapped scene idea where, at the end when the casita/magic broke, no one recognized Camilo. But the team decided it was a bad idea to distract from Mirabel and the plot in that moment. also, as a trans person, i'm really sad his identity wasn't explored more. And also, as a person who struggled very deeply with my self identity (because trans), I am sad we didn't explore his issues and struggles with his magic "gift" and the pressure it put on him, like we did with everyone else.

When you say you hope they make an encanto 2, I hope they don't because it's most likely going to be trash.

[@NeoMeconopsis]

I think it would be cool if they did like a series, where each episode is just showing what life is like around the village in the aftermath of the movie, with maybe a few episodes focused on events before the movie? But I agree, a whole second movie might not be very good. They pretty much completely resolved the plot of the movie, so they would have to come up with a whole new thing for another movie, and it honestly probably wouldn’t work, unless maybe it focused mostly of pepa’s side of the family? But a series would probably work better.
