FIRST TIME WATCHING CORALINE!! properly** ~ coraline reaction ~

[@zarahfrancisco3734]

Apparently before this story was published, the publishers were worried it's too scary for kids. They got a little girl, forgot whose kid she was, and she read the story. Told her mom it wasn't scary and so Coraline got published.. Years later at a book signing, Neil gaiman met that girl as a grown up. And she told him that she lied. I love that story.

[@BlockingTheSunOut]

"If I had to get scarred, so do the rest of you punks." 😂

[@Cloudy_Chaos.]

But the reason she lied was because she wanted to see the end! Very important detail!

[@yermum1396]

It was his kid

[@yermum1396]

@@saddeeds he didn’t write it for his daughters lmao. Someone said it was too scary to publish so he had his young daughter read it and she said she wasn’t scared but later said she actually was but didn’t wanna say it

[@ezravldina3467]

​@yermum1396 tell me you didn't read the book without telling me. He wrote the book for his daughter Holly but left it and then finished it for his other daughter, Maddy.

[@GraceFay]

The whistling sign in the two ladies home is because that’s how crew workers in the theater used to communicate to each other about set pieces coming in and out, dangers happening, etc! So no one else was supposed to whistle incase it was misinterpreted by a crew member and things were moved to early!

[@19Rena96]

I thought it was because of the dogs :D

[@JayC.xoxx3]

that’s interesting i had no idea! It’s a superstition in Romania to whistle in the house as well! It’s said to being bad luck- my mother would always get mad at my father for whistling haha

[@chattycatty3336]

​@@JayC.xoxx3 I watch a KZbin from Ukraine and she's mentioned that before 😂 said her mother was super strict about whistling inside

[@yehorparkhomenko3354]

@@chattycatty3336I’m Ukrainian and my mom did the exact same😭

[@tiasmith3499]

It's also to do with the book as in the book she whistles when she was scared and that's when she sees the other father in the basement area and he looks completely different and is described as the texture of bread dough since the other mother made him and then didn't need him anymore

[@Bracyteaker11]

The real mum is mum But the other one is mother✨

[@RamonaGelosi]

iconic comment

[@terukokocos]

the fact that the other father tried to warn her the whole time has me SOBBING, the “im sorry mother making me” IS SO SAD

[@videohistory722]

If you were paying attention to the Other Father's song, you'd realize that it was actually a warning. Making up a song about coraline. She's a peach (something to eat) she's a doll (how the other mother spies on her) she's a pal of mine (he actually cares about her.) She's a cute as a button to everyone who ever laid their eyes on coraline (buttons for eyes) When she comes exploring, mom and I will never ever make it boring (how the other mother plans to lure her into staying) Our eyes will be on coraline (sewing the buttons into her eyes) And then the pause right at the end, before he pulls away, he looks right at the camera like he's saying, "Did you get that?"

[@RamonaGelosi]

I swear, every time I see the movie or someone react to it THERE'S ALWAYS A LITTLE IMPORTANT THING THAT I MISSED OR A THEORY THAT I HAVEN'T HEARD BEFORE, THIS MOVIE IS A MASTERPIECE

[@JorgensZelda]

I just noticed when Coraline falls asleep in the other world for the first time, the Other Mother is sitting in the same chair where the doll is sitting. I feel like that was probably deliberate. I love the little touches in this movie.

[@leovk5779]

"So sharp you won't feel a thing!" Everyone having children knows this is NOT what you must say to reassure a child by pointing out pain before a seringue injection. The other father is obviously pointing out the fact it is actually going to hurt and they want to put needles in her eyes, and the other mother catches on and hits him.

[@madebymalachite1464]

"I could see kids being freaked the fuck out for life with this." Yep! I was five when this movie came out and my mom and her girlfriend took me to see it in theatres and we had to leave once the parents got taken because I started crying. Had nightmares that night, and what's worse! In my bedroom at the time was a little door just like the movie in the back of my closet! Couldn't look in that direction of the room at nights the entire rest of the time we lived there! Ended up moving a year or so later, but that shit fucked me up! Only rewatched it when I was 16, and it's a great movie but it does still sometimes give me the creepy crawlies.

[@scorpionbraid]

I love the split second difference between Brad saying he'd stay to being immediately creeped out. Never be afraid to change your mind.

[@gigi._11]

brad saying that he doesn’t know if it’s for kids is so funny because coraline was my favorite movie as a kid 😂😅

[@baixiaolang]

Yeah, tbh I hate when ppl bring up the story about "he read it to his daughter to prove it wasn't too scary to kids and she later admitted she was scared but didn't tell him cause she wanted to know how it ended" story bc if she still wanted to know how it ended enough to continue on with it then it obviously wasn't too scary for her 😂

[@needyverse]

Aww, Coraline's parents are going through a hard time. It's been less than a week of them being stressed about this major deadline, which is their livelihood for a while. They just moved into a crumbling wreck of an apartment/unit and haven't been able to unpack much - they can barely afford food or new clothes until they get paid for this big book project. Coraline's mum is also injured after an accident (she is wearing a neck brace) which I'm sure doesn't make anyone feel like they are in a good mood, plus that might have also been a problem with money (depending on the healthcare in this universe lol). We are seeing Coraline's parents from her perspective, so because she is bored and alone in a new place for a few days, it suddenly seems like they are practically villains, when in reality they are tired and stressed for a little bit and after the deadline, they return to normal. Because we follow Coraline’s perspective, Coraline’s parents aren’t really developed as people early on in the story. You can also see in a few photos that Coraline recently had brown hair, so dying it blue happened around the time of the move - I always thought that was a trade-off for having to move to a new place, like 'you can dye your hair to boost your mood about this big move'. At the start, Coraline believes that her mother and father exist to provide for her, entertain her, and, in effect, worship her - this is why the Other Mother is able to easily sway Coraline. Coraline doesn’t seem to take their work or responsibilities seriously and pesters them constantly when she grows bored of exploring or is kept inside by the weather. In Coraline’s view, her parents are uninteresting and exist only to move her around the country; dictate what she eats and what she wears; and impose rules, regulations, and chores upon her life. Over the course of the story, though, she comes to realize that just as parents have an obligation to keep their children safe and healthy, children have certain obligations to their parents, as well. Coraline learns, through her dealings with the Other Mother, that when parents behave like children and don’t respect the boundaries and demands of parenthood, even the difficult parts, things are just not quite right. Ultimately, Coraline realizes that if her real parents gave her everything she asked for whenever she asked for it, doted on her constantly, and never gave her any rules or responsibilities, she’d be unhappy. What she wants, she’s learned, is the relationship she had with her parents before - not perfect, but built on a strong foundation of love, respect, and the pursuit of what’s right (even when what’s right isn’t what’s easy).

[@leonasindlerova1727]

I've seen this film so many times but when I say I was shook when I saw a video of someone noticing that at the end, when she's running away through the tunnel that kinda looks like a stomach, there are pieces of children's clothing stuck in the walls.

[@RamonaGelosi]

holy sh!t

sorry but in what world is coraline not scary? 😭 gave me nightmares when i was 8. now i just enjoy it, but it's very obviously incredibly creepy on purpose.

[@Odd_Bunny]

There are so many amazing little details in this movie that lovers of it obsess over, including me. My favorite is the cake the other mother gives Coraline the first night she's there says "Welcome Home" in cursive, but the o in home has a double loop because the double loop signifies the person who wrote it is lying. So the O in welcome has a single loop which means Coraline is welcome there, but it's certainly not her home.

[@videohistory722]

The hardest scene they had to film for this movie was the mice circus performance. If you know anything about stop motion, you know it's ridiculously hard to pull off, especially like this.

[@_Moonlit_]

This film was everything to me as a child, cause even though I was a kid I hated how “everything’s so perfect and cute” children films were… like they always felt belittling to me, I hated it so much! So I was so happy with how dark this film was!

[@BigFanOfManyThings]

They need to make more dark stop motion movies like this. In my opinion it’s better than the book. Wybie was a character especially created for the movie and I’m really glad of it.

[@RoriLite]

Reading the book then watching the movie really is an experience, always look forward to your reactions Brad!

Im gonna throw in Hocus Pocus as a rec. Im honestly shocked it hasnt already been done but I did a quick search and it isnt coming up. Given the amount of costume and drag its inspired it will work well for mNy of the memes that tend to get used in edits here, and its just a campy good time. Also backing Practical Magic, Halloween Town, and Monster Housenwhich I saw come up in others comments. This is a movie I love which no one I know even likes so getting to see others react to and discuss it is a treat. Thanks Brad!

I can only admire the phenomenal work that is the editing on this channel lol I wonder if it's self taught? Either way it's great always and plzz don't stop the HIIII intro lol it's now a tradition

It’s not a Halloween film, but it is a horror film, and it honestly is such a slay but very very weird… ✨mother! ✨. It’s a 2017 film with Jennifer Lawrence, and it’s honestly so good. It is unlike any other film I’ve seen because it’s like 2 hours long, but the first 2/3 of the film is like nothing happens, then it’s exponential up until the end 🫣.I would love to see brad watch it, and honestly more people should watch it because it’s so good. You do need to read up on the themes and metaphors that the film represents bc it makes so much more sense once you watch it. 💛💛💛

[@krose6451]

As much as seing Brad react to it would probably be hilarious, given how divisive the film is and the bad/confused reviews it got from many viewers, I worry it wouldn't do well for the channel.

Watching this at 9 yrs old in 2009 in a classroom was so fun. I remember everyone loving it and having fun discussions afterwards.

21:46 I babysat a kid in high school who loved this movie. I will never forget us both watching it for the first time and I asked several times if he was sure because it might be scary. We watched it and I was so creeped out while he was laughing his ass off at certain parts.

[@lolomuffinz1104]

SIGNS is such an underrated movie, with aspects of suspense and horror. I would definitely give it a watch! Joaquin Phoenix and Mel Gibson did such and amazing job and the cinematography is amazing as well.

UP

[@mally97726]

It's actually for kids but there's a theory that when Coraline first went through the door she actually stayed there through the rest of the movie and when she gets back to the real world her parents were gone because she went missing and they went looking for her

I never understood why they changed the setting of the film to America… IT’S STOP ANIMATION! It didn’t need to be changed, why not leave it based in the UK. It’s based on an actual pink 3 flat house in England that Neil Gaiman lived in as a child.

In the welcome home message on the cake, there's a unique loop in the O that symbolizes dishonesty. She is welcome, but she's not home. Yes i know it was just a happy accident, but what a happy accident it was.

[@videohistory722]

The years on the bowls of taffy correspond to when the ghost children went missing

[@AnnaInReaderland]

So for people who don’t know the author of the book Neil Gaiman wrote the story for his own daughter because at the time she was too young for the classic/mature horrors at that time. He wanted to give her her own horror that she could actually read therefore it was originally meant for kids. His kid to be specifically

FUNNY STORY: When I was 6 years old I went to my friends house and she asked me if I wanted to see a scary movie. I HATE scary movies so I said no. She then said “oh…it’s not that scary. Just watch it!!!” I finally gave in because it was PG, it can’t be that bad. Long story short, I didn’t sleep for a month, and even after that I had constant nightmares about it. I WAS IN KINDERGARTEN.

[@cpcoultertweedles7216]

We are poor in this movie. Lots of signs for it: only tipping the movers a dollar, the urgency to finish the magazines, the lack of food and the reluctance to buy more unless it’s really necessary, the lack of money for anything but the bare necessities (e.g. not being able to buy the gloves). Most likely they were fine financially, but Mum’s accident left them in debt due to the medical bills

[@Forty2Times]

I took my little brother to this when it came out. So many kids were crying and left with their parents. My brother was 7 in my lap peeking through his hands at times 😂 They cut so many f#cked up elements from the book and it was still scary
