I know what your dream means | Joseph: King of Dreams | CLIP

[@domidium]

That first guy who was taken: classic example of someone asking their future, and getting upset when it’s a negative future. I know it’s not exactly the same, but it gave me the same vibes.

[@action3936]

Yep, a other perfect example is in Encanto how everyone blame Bruno for their future, is not like he let it happened.

Out of all the interpretations of this part in the story, this one is my favorite, cause it takes a very relatable approach to the situation. When Joseph knows the baker is going to be executed, he doesn't just flat out say he's going to die. Because lets be honest, how can you just tell someone you KNOW they are going to die? It's such a powerful moment.

[@videogollumer]

The baker's attitude in this film isn't the same as in the Bible though, he was actually hopeful that he might get good tidings as well from Joseph's interpretation of his dream after hearing that the cup bearer did.

[@Adamguy2003]

If memory serves, in the actual Bible story, A) The birds in the Baker's dream don't attack him, they just eat all the bread from his baskets. B) The Baker was hanged, not beheaded.

[@DisneyFanatic2364]

I think the "hanged" might've been a result of European mistranslation, because that was more popular in Medieval Europe than Ancient Egypt.

[@richardlew3667]

I thought that the baker got impaled onto a spear?

[@Graycata]

I'm curious if the number of baskets varied, given they seem to symbolize the number of days

[@Adamguy2003]

@@Graycata I think it was always three, so it would be clear in his memory when he told Joseph about it.

[@videogollumer]

He also wasn't skeptical about Joseph; he was hopeful after hearing that the interpretation Joseph gave of the cup bearer's dream was good, which was why he asked for an interpretation of his dreams.

Joseph: Don't forget me! Spongebob Narrator: A Few years later...

[@TheCommenterDragon]

Every time I hear the fat guy say "It's not a gift, It's a curse." I can't help but think that he's right Joseph's ability to predict the future through dreams is both a gift and a curse, especially when it comes to predicting the possible fates of others. That's an ability that I would never want to have. Knowing other people's destinies and then having to weigh it on their minds, it would be too much for anyone to bear.

[@lsheltothewanderer8883]

In the long run it ended up being a great gift though. He saved the lives of hundreds of people through his ability to read and interpret people’s dreams.

[@golden1_1dragon12]

I mean letting people know about ur gifts will cause jealousy. Don’t let know is often the best course of action

[@videogollumer]

The baker's attitude here is inaccurate to the Bible; he was actually hopeful after hearing the interpretation of the cup bear's dream. I'm pretty sure DreamWorks just decide to depict him as spiteful because they wanted it to feel more deserved from audience's perspective, considering that the Bible doesn't tell us exactly why the Pharaoh had the baker imprisoned and later executed. Still, it's just plain misleading.

[@spongeyspikes09]

and lets not even *begin* to even think about "attempting" to change your fate, after all "One often meets his destiny on the road he takes to avoid it"

[@danielnemesio3388]

I love how humble they made Joseph about his gift in this movie. In children books, and the actual bible for thta matter, he always sounded so arrogant regarding his dream of his brother's bowing to him. In this version he was telling it just to his mother and Jacob overheard and made a big deal of it and made the brothers antagonistic towards him. He was very empathetic in not wanting to bring bad news to the baker, knowing full well what fate awaited him, and he looks genuinely upset by having this power, even if is for something positive

[@sethinneon]

Actually in the film he did brag about it in front of his brothers. Go back and watch it.

[@danielnemesio3388]

@sethinneon he did it in a playful way without realizing it was a prophecy. He was like "you guys are just saying that because you don't know of my dream", like locker room talk. He didn't act like his dream wasn't more than a dream, he confided in his mother Rachel about it and Jacob overheard it, and then the dad make it to be a big thing and made the brothers feel lesser

[@andytaba7429]

One gets pardoned, but the other gets put to death. How is that fair?

[@Adamguy2003]

We don't know what they each did or were suspected of doing. A theory I've heard was that the Baker was part of a plot to try and assassinate the Pharaoh, and the Butler/ Cupbearer was initially suspected of being involved as well, but turned out to be innocent and thus was released.

[@BrontoSmilodon1]

​@@Adamguy2003 judging by how they act, I'm guessing the fat one was too good at his job and blamed everyone else for his short comings...no pun intended.

[@GuukanKitsune]

Because life ISN'T fair. And the vision is about their life.

[@Notimportantrealy]

I have a theory that the tall guy made a mistake but it is forgiven but the fat one he was carrying baskets of breads but he dropped them and the crows came and ate it all leaving nothing he is blamed for the waste of food and is sentenced to death

One lives, one dies.

[@videogollumer]

This scene is Biblically incorrect. The Baker was actually hopeful after hearing that the cup bearer's dream interpretation was good and was horrified after hearing that his was bad. I guess Dreamworks wanted to make it seem justified for the Baker to be executed; but the truth is that the Bible doesn't explain why Pharaoh had the chief cup bearer and chief baker imprisoned in the first place, why he had the cup bearer reinstated, or why he had the baker executed. All we know is that it was God's plan for the cup bearer to be restored so that he would remember Joseph 2 years later, when the Pharaoh had dreams of his own; thus, Joseph would be able to warn Pharaoh about the Famine and how to prepare for it. Thus, Joseph would be able to save his family, fulfilling the prophecy of his own dreams from before he was sold into slavery.

[@kathrin-mariasamarrastehle6538]

I love this little scene

[@Igarappappa]

And he was forgotten about for YEARS afterwards. That Cupbearer has a shitty memory.

[@maybehesbornwithitmaybeits9318]

Joseph killed the baker if you think about it he had that dream with 3 baskets for weeks but only when Joseph interpreted it was when it became 3 days, probably why Joseph was hesitant to tell him

He's had that dream for the last 2 weeks.... If the three loaf of bread mean in three days then why didn't he get beheaded 11 day ago? I know it's a petty issue, but something I always notice. Edit: my bad, he said a week ago, still that means he had to be beheaded 4 days ago.

[@JiraiyaSama86]

Perhaps it was because the encounter with Joseph was also foreseen.

@@JiraiyaSama86 that kind of what I always thought, there's some unwritten rule that it means 3 days from the day Joseph hears the dream that it will happen.

It’s a tough situation which is better. Setting hell and vengeance on the brothers who wronged u? Or letting it go. Joseph approach is pretty human. ( didn’t forgive them at first. He tested n tricked them. But when he saw the change n hurt in their eyes he understood. In an ironic way he rose to power cause of his brothers action.
