My wife watches COCO for the FIRST time || Movie Reaction

[@senzanome7302]

Coco in my opinion definitely deserves a spot when talking about some of the greatest animated films of all time, the music, animation, story, everything about it is just absolute perfection

[@TopNotchWatcher87]

100% agree!

[@billygregory1547]

Book of Life is still better than Coco. Just my opinion. U can disagree or agree that’s cool. Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion.

​​@@billygregory1547i personaly prefer it over coco too

[@willsoralis2313]

Peharps, but the " story" is a big nope ... that whole music-hating family BS makes absolutely no sense ... especially with the fact Coco kept all the things related to her father but still let her daughter and the next generation in this state ... Seriously, Miguel is not inbred, his mum came from another family before being part of this, but like the others in-law they all accept this stupid "no music " mindset. It make no sense ... And don't make me talk about Imelda, she is dead, but she still wanna mess with her family's mindset ... Sure, If she was understanding of that fact, the story won't happened, because Miguel would have return without resolving the mystery, but It's always so frustrating for a story to only revolve around " Character A does a stupid and incoherent thing" for the plot ...

[@Thund3rfist]

The first time I saw this movie I had just moved into a new apartment with 2 roommates. We had nothing unpacked yet and sat around an empty living room the first night watching Coco sitting on the floor. By the end of the movie it had a group of full grown adults in tears.

[@Burstify]

Yeah I remember that day bro 😢

[@jasontodd6822]

In case you guys didn't notice but the first time we meet Hector he doesn't have shoes but at the end of the movie when he crosses the flower bridge with CoCo he has shoes on because the rest of the family accepted him back in their family. As their family legacy was making shoes they made him a pair when they allowed him back in their family ❤

[@MLwrestling25]

What I like about the “remember me” song was how different the two versions are. De La Cruz had the lyrics but when he sang it it was upbeat. When it was actually intended as a lullaby for coco and is sung softer.

[@gio3513]

Fun fact: at Ernesto de la Cruz’s party, many Mexican icons of music/entertainment that have passed are present. Disney paying tribute to them was a beautiful thing because they didn’t have to do that.

[@Stoney_Snark]

I love this movie and it truly inspired me. I moved to Mexico 5 years ago. After being here a year, a little chihuahua would come begging for food everyday. We became best buddies. Months later he came one day dragging a pup of about two months. Over the next year the chihuahua (Bubba) mentored the pup (Boo Boo). Bubba crossed the Rainbow Bridge when he was hit by a car. That year I made my first ofrenda. I didn’t have actual photos, so I made a slideshow of Bubba on an iPad and used that. The next year I did it again, but included another slideshow featuring my relatives. Boo Boo is still with me. Coco is touching, funny, great all around!!

[@wolfkniteX]

Ngl, I cried like a baby when Miguel started singing to Coco in the end... That voice actor is phenomenal.

[@VinoDeRio]

The near ending scene where Miguel sings to his grandma destroys me and I cry every time. Honestly one of the best movies in the recent era of animated movies :')

[@ElCactus7567]

This movie changed culture. My family in Mexico were so touched by this movie, some of them even started celebrating Dia de los Muertos in the traditional way afterwards. This was true all over the country, I was pretty amazed to see how many people it affected. The movie is great on its own, but for what it did for Mexican culture, I rank it as a top tier movie.

[@steevieg]

I don't know how y'all weren't in tears when Coco started singing Remember Me. Such a beautiful, emotional scene. I get emotional every time I see it. So beautiful.

[@rainbowpegacornstudios]

From a cultural standpoint, Coco means the world to me. The sheer respect for Mexican culture in this movie is just incredible. The music, the food & the preparations for The Day Of The Dead. The culture itself is part of who I am and it's very important, as is the message of the importance of family. Also, the customs agent in The Land Of The Dead was portrayed by funnyman Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias.

[@kyleterrell6842]

If I had a lineup of all the Pixar movies, I'd have a hard time putting this one anywhere besides number 1

[@MichaelPallada]

The scene at the end with abuela singing Remember Me broke me. I sobbed uncontrollably. How you didn't is beyond me.😅 Edit: I have to correct myself. I didn't sob, I full on ugly cried 😅😭

[@acdragonrider]

lol I ugly cry every time I see it. The family altogether too

[@AlexRN]

I ugly cried big time. The most I’ve cried at ANY movie. I haven’t rewatched this masterpiece because I don’t wanna cry like that again.

[@acdragonrider]

I’m Asian American and I always appreciated how Mexicans similarly engage in rituals of ancestor worship. Growing up in the US, I always felt weird that ancestor veneration and filial piety aren’t as big here with Americans. Speaking of Mexicans and Latin Americans , they really have a mix of traditional indigenous heritage culture and Christianity.

[@eduardomartin8510]

@acdragonrider The Spanish wanted to intermix a lot, they didn't just conquer. Part of their goal was to mix culture, religion and even ethnicity to integrate better. That's part of the reason as to why you see such a blend. Unfortunately there was some destruction of temples, texts and some other things so it wasn't a perfect match. *Part of the reason as to why Catholicism mixed well was due to the saints, they could be analogous to the pantheons already in place.

[@Mazaradi26]

[@sammylane21]

I loved it when Miguel tries to do his mariachi scream but can't because he's never done it before like when Simba tried to roar at the Hyenas for the first time.

[@andreworihuela5175]

one detail I like to interpret is the spirit animal for the Rivera family is very big because it symbolizes how strong their family bond is, the more stronger the more bigger it is which connects back to pepita being the one to throw Ernesto to the bell, meanwhile Ernesto has one but its very small and it shows how little he cares about his family as he didn't even know about Miguel and just went along with it.

Did NOT know Coco was the grandmother and when she died at the end, I LOST IT!! 😭 "it was so beautiful!!" I struggled through soaked eyes.. truly a great film that hits home for me.. ~Gio~~

[@strykerbravo9910]

I would say that you don't have to worry about cultural appropriation or cancelation from Mexican fans. We know your intentions are of admiration, so we really appreciate that. Mexicans have the saying "Mexicans are born wherever they want" meaning that if you feel Mexican inside, then the Mexican people will consider you a Mexican no matter where you're from. So, if you wanna wear a sombrero or dress like a mariachi, you should!! Feel free to pain your face like they do for the day of the dead if you want to as well. Really enjoy your content brother. keep it up!

[@nbunnysnowboard]

When Miguel sings Remember Me to Mama Coco it makes me cry every time 😭

[@HypocritesExposd]

I first saw this in 2018. My wife fell asleep in my arms while watching and I was absolutely bawling at the end. My wife woke up and asked what was wrong and I said nothing was wrong. A year later we had our first son and when he was about 1.5 years old, he discovered this movie and watched it on repeat for about…. 6 months and we watched it as a family so many times and never got sick of it. I can recite most of the movie’s lines and lyrics lol. Solid 10/10 for me as well.

[@kratosGOW]

Bwahahahahaha! Jen's face when Ernesto mentioned the world being his family was hilarious but I wasn't expecting Holden to glare at the camera even through a quick and suspicious sip. 😂 😂

@@Burstify thank you didn’t even realize the typo :0

[@AlexRN]

Holden, as a member of the Mexican delegation I am confirm that 1) you will NOT be canceled for buying sombrero during your vacation in Mexico. We would’ve canceled half of the US if that were true. As long as you’re not being disrespectful there’s nothing wrong with that. 2) I grew up in a private catholic school in Mexico and I can 200% confirm that the church is a-ok with the Day of the Dead celebrations. They actually embrace the day and think it doesn’t go against catholic teachings at all. They even encouraged us to make Day of the Dead altars with ofrendas in honor of our dead. It was actually Halloween the day they were iffy about! They discouraged observing that day in favor of day of the dead more since they were so close together (Nov 2nd vs Oct 31st). Been a fan for a long time now and I love your content! PS: this movie made me ugly cry in the theater and havent watched it again because I don’t wanna cry again, not because I didn’t like it (quite the contrary!). This and Inside Out are the two Pixar GOATs.

Holden from what I remember you saying, you played in a mariachi band as a kid, went to a Spanish speaking church, and grew up in a hispanic household.

To answer Holden Hombreduro`s question in 13:26 Before photos were created, Ofrendas had all the other elements like food, drinks, colorful skulls made of sugar, chocolate, personal object that were owned by the deceased and of course chopped china paper of all colors (like the ones in the opening scene). To identify who was the Ofrenda intended to, instead of the photos they would simply write the name in paper or spell it out in the ground using Cempasúchitl (orange or yellow Marigold flower petals)

The reason Dante has the ability to interact with the underworld is because he is a Xoloitzcuintle, a Mexican dog breed descendant of Anubis the Egyptian god of death.

11:39 The dog (Dante) can enter the world of the dead, because it is from a breed called xoloitzcuintle, which in turn has a great connection with death in our country.
