Wow! Extensive, accurate information! How did you know about the grass valley viper? There are details here even didn't know (and I was there) 😉

[@congratsbro.]

Mr. Shearn, its an absolute pleasure to speak with you. Thank you so much for watching my video and commenting. I based all my research off of the DVD special features and Wikipedia. I also did some independent research of my own based on the filming locations of this film, I can not thank you enough for taking the time to view this video, It means the world to me. You all created a masterpiece. You should be proud of this film for the rest of your life. You made a very important piece of art work. To this day, i am effected by this incredible film. Mirror mask will always be an important part of my life thanks to you, and I thank you. Thank you for all that you do.

[@antonyshearnchannel]

It's fun for me to enjoy your enjoyment, I always wished to work on stuff that was 'good', it really matters to me. Thank you for your comments! We did quite well with the same money a film like 'Mission Impossible' could spend on a launch party? It would have been a much 'bigger' film had not the animation overrun by maybe about a year, by which time Columbia had almost forgotten they'd even commissioned it? For me, the '10 days later' shot was a highlight, shot with a £1000-per-day 10mm optex snorkel lens, (Dave said, "like the beginning of 'Star Wars' but with a girl on a bed") and the 'anti-Helena dome tearing from light to dark pov' - achieved with a rare z-arm crane from Texas, perhaps the only one in England, with an amazing Nikon 6mm lens designed to inspect oil rig struts? That shot took 3 months thought, 'how can we give Steph the camera?', solved not by me but the excellent dolly grip Jem Morton, who was trawling Arri grip dept on his (rare) days off. Screen time, 3-4 secs tops? such is life... Later I had cause to deliver a dvd to 'Dark Crystal' dp Ossie Morris, as the 'spiritual sequel', and we spent a delightful afternoon discussing it, his faded, well-handled Oscar for 'Fiddler on the Roof' behind him. It felt a lot like squaring a circle. I take immense pleasure in your pleasure, with my best wishes, Antony

[@congratsbro.]

@@antonyshearnchannel Wow, its incredible to have one of the creators of the film here on my channel providing such gems of information that I doubt exist anywhere else, now immortalized in this comment section. I've now had three people who worked on this film interact with my video in some way or another. Its such an honor, more than I ever could have imagined when making the video. Its always a pipe dream when reviewing a film that the creators will see my work, but its happened twice now on two separate videos, a huge encouragement to make more content. I hope to speak to you again some day, maybe on a new video if I ever get another one out. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment here. Absolutely amazing.

[@antonyshearnchannel]

@@congratsbro. Haha, I still have the (only) key- cast in resin, broken twice and glued back together, it was 'summoned' by the Henson company and Fedex'd to their lot on La Brea ave (once upon a time was Charlie Chaplin's studio) to be cast and would/could have been a MacDonald's happy meal toy had there been any realistic publicity. The key has a screwdriver point, that Helena uses to enter the white dome, one of several deleted sequences. 🙂

[@Eroxi3]

FINALLY someone talking about this movie. Seriously underrated gem

[@congratsbro.]

Totally agree

[@orchidweaver99]

The labyrinth and mirror mask are literally 2 of my favorite movies of all time. I'm so glad when I see other people talk about this movie

[@congratsbro.]

Same! On this channel I'm going to be covering a lot of movies in this genre so you should definitely come back! Thanks for watching

[@AntiSuccess]

I watched this movie when I was super little, about the same age as the protagonist! The dreamlike quality and the protagonist herself always felt so much more genuine to me than any other movie I saw as a kid, so it makes sense that a lot of it was improvised and cobbled together by a lot of very passionate and talented people. It's one of those movies that unsettles you, but in a way that's really intriguing. I kind of half-forgot it, but so much of the surreal imagery stuck with me that I had to go down a Google rabbit hole trying to figure out its title again. Had to go from search terms like "WEIRD MOVIE WHERE THE GIRL PUTS HER FACE IN A MIRROR, NEIL GAIMAN MAYBE???" valentine was my favorite too, i thought he was dreamy when i was like 10. for some reason i remember him actually betraying Helena and stealing the mask and escaping to the real world in the end?? I think it was just an imagination sequence that was so existentially shattering to me as a child that I was too freaked out to notice the part where they were like, "Just kidding, that didn't really happen!"

[@xaesalyszimpkee]

My sister was obsessed with this movie. She would often put it on and I would see it in passing. I would see it occasionally in It's totality. When I got older, and I watched that movie again after rediscovering it after completely forgetting about it; I understood why my sister was obsessed with it. She was going through a lot of mental health issues that were undiagnosed at the time that were difficult to get her to cooperate with getting seen for. There were times where she was very vulnerable and sweet and kind and herself. But after some stuff happened, she just wasn't herself. She was more promiscuous, breaking rules, running away, drinking, partying, etc. I remember knowing that something was seriously wrong and she started destroying her art and supplies and purposely broke her guitar. (Trigger warning: self un-aliving-she shortly tried to remove her existence after this). I often saw a side of her that no one else did- I knew that she felt lost and out of control. Even tho at the time I was too young to understand what i was witnessing, I knew when she wasn't herself. But the malicious trouble maker was the version she was known as, but it wasn't her true self. She was written off a lot of the time because of her behavior. But as I've gotten older, I've realized that her struggles were overlooked because of the actions that the authority in her life found problematic or disruptive. This movie is aesthetically beautiful and fantastically written. One of those movies that even if it doesn't speak to you, it's memorable. And if it does, its unforgettable, and makes you tear up and feel seen🥹

[@congratsbro.]

Guys, thank you so much for waiting so long. I know I haven't uploaded in a very long time but hopefully this video will make up for that. I worked VERY hard on it. Thank you for sticking with me and watching my videos. Ill see you all again in five months...just kidding.

[@Seti-ms9bs]

Your videos are addicting thank you for such quality entertainment but I need more lol I don't know how you have such low views you deserve so much more

[@joecatable]

I found this movie on psp video at my local bookstore for $5.99.

[@congratsbro.]

@@Seti-ms9bs You're too kind. Thank you so much. This is what I love doing. Unfortunately I have to pay the bills and my job requires that I travel every week. So its almost impossible to focus on my videos. So I have no consistency in my upload schedule and that kills me with the algorithm. But ill never stop making videos, so please check back from time to time and Ill keep putting out content. I consider every video a passion project. Thank you so much for the kind comment.

[@congratsbro.]

@@joecatable Haha, I used to be a PSP fanboy. I was so addicted to it that I bought the first generation PS Vita the day it came out. Ended up being a very bad investment. Ill never forget the UMD discs. My first GTA game was Vice City Stories. Amazing game.

[@Seti-ms9bs]

@@congratsbro. I understand completely thanks for the vids you have made. I subbed tou you so I'll see looking at your vids I think ghost in the shell fits you like a glove. And please stay apolitical lol

[@weholdparties]

For a long while this was my favorite movie. I would listen to the soundtrack all the time. I would play Close to You on repeat I loved it so much. Thank you for bringing it to people’s attention!

[@congratsbro.]

Hey it was my pleasure! And thank you for watching and commenting!

[@digitalhuman5943]

This film means so much to me. I rented it from Hollywood video when I wasn’t much younger than Helena, i loved books, and drawing, and after watching it over and over again I created my own world on my bedroom walls. This film helped shape and define the woman I am today, and it means so much to learn more about its creation and explains why I love this movie to this day. Thank you so much for researching and explaining this wonderful work of art.

[@trllmnella7259]

As a now adult watching mirrormask, this movie STILL makes me want to create a world on my walls and I'm 28 lmao, amazing movie

[@trollol1914]

I saw this as a child,alone in a room, in the dark, before bed (fell asleep once it ended to be lifted and brought to bed, tells you how small I was) and have scoured for this film for years to finally take the plunge and ask reddit, thought i might get somone who knew at some point… somone replied in a few hours to someone agreeing its what i saw and this is it. i have had nightnare upon strange dream around this film but never thought I’d work out the name, let alone find the film or get to see it now from my adult eyes! This video has been the cherry on top to finish this day of all emotions at once… i’m taken back to that kid once more!👀😵‍💫🤯

[@congratsbro.]

Man I appreciate this comment so much. Im so happy that I could add to the experience. I made this video to be a documentation of the existence of this film for any of the very few people out there that understood how beautiful and important this film is. Thank you for the comment dude.

[@j0ellyfish]

I had a PSP and my mom got this movie from out of nowhere. She did ebay a lot. She gave it to me before I went to a sleepover with my best friends. All I thought was "Cool! New movie to watch!" Brought my PSP and my friends and I huddled together watching it. I can't even begin to explain our faces in reaction to it.

[@ArmitageShanksuk]

Now, as an adult, living in Brighton, I'm completely shocked to suddenly recognise the piers in the background of the shot with her Father stretching out into the sea. I never noticed!

[@electricden]

It's also set in the 1930s Embassy building on the seafront, near the Angel of Peace statue, from where you can also see the piers.

[@Ta3_x]

MirrorMask has always been a favorite of mine growing up! I’m surprised people actually know about. I still have a dvd copy of it too! :)

[@congratsbro.]

Dude hang on to it. I'm pretty sure they aren't making new copies. Thanks for the comment!

[@corvidaemoon8744]

I needed this video so bad. My heart feels SO good listening to someone talk personal, and actual fact about this movie. My mother whom I no longer have in my life, gave this movie to me when i was a child. She knew very well I would cherish it, and I do hold it so dearly and so fondly. Not many things make me feel as good/happy as this movie, the labyrinth and the dark crystal do. Thank yoU SO SO SO much for this AMAZING video. P.S The ending montage made me SOB. Beautiful!

[@insertlaughter]

God I loved this film. I watched it over and over again, right along with Labrynth and Dark Crystal. I was a Henson kid. Gaiman was (and still is) my favorite author growing up. His touch is definitely seen and felt in this film. I'd kill for a copy of it now, I miss it. It was creepy and clever and just beautiful. Also, side note - has anyone listened to the album "Where's Neil When You Need Him?" It has a couple of amazing songs dedicated to/about this, my favorite being Wake The White Queen by the Cruxshadows.

[@alitlweird]

This is the kind of movie I would have loved as a kid… and then nobody would know what movie I was talking about.

[@logannye9402]

Just going to say I thought I was going crazy, thanks to you I can finally confirme that this is the movie I watched a shit tone when I was a kid "like a crazy amount of times" I would go with my mom and always ask her to rent this movie untill she finally got freaked out on how much I liked this movie. Also just wow love your videos man just found you through KZbin's algorithm

[@congratsbro.]

Man that's so awesome. I'm really glad I could bring this film back to your attention. One of my favorite experiences as an adult is going "What in the hell was that one movie I was obsessed with when I was five years old again?" and then finding it and getting to relive the experience. Always so surreal. And I know a lot of people out there had this experience with MirrorMask. Man thank you so much for watching my videos.

[@smokeybeefroarus1497]

I saw this movie when I was a kid, and it came back to me through fragmented memories recently. So trippy. Epic movie!

[@infradig696]

Hey man! My favorite is something I consider a hidden gem, and I've never seen anyone cover it on youtube before. I watch it at least once a year, and learn something new every single time. It's in Shakespearian, and you really do end up catching something you might have missed the first 20 times you watch it haha. Have you ever seen Titus with Anthony Hopkins? I feel like it's so underrated and needs to be covered.

[@congratsbro.]

Dude Ill definitely look into that. Thanks for the suggestion.

[@TallonC]

Given the budget and time, I think the effects are amazing. It’s really is a forgotten gem.

[@damianlawler5675]

love this film. still have an old pirate version. somewhere

[@congratsbro.]

I wish I could just upload my digital copy of it online for everyone to see for free, but i gotta support the creators and hope my viewers pay for it. Even if its an unfortunately hefty price. This team deserves the money honestly.

[@scrooge-mcduck]

The music in this film deserves a video all unto itself.

[@slawekstopczak986]

Lustrzana maska jeden z ciekawszych tytułów polecam ten film na prawdę warto obejżeć👍👏

[@eldritchxdream3858]

I can't even begin to describe how much this film means to me. It shaped my childhood and to this day I have no idea where my mom found the dvd of it back in the day as we live in the US but I'm so infinitely thankful that I've held onto it over the years and across many moves. Thank you so much for making this to share (:

[@chimedemon]

Just saw it for the first time tonight after going through a rabbit hole of researching “artist of Batman: Arkham Asylum comic” aaaaand my god do I have a new favorite artist. I am genuinely shocked for how well not only the acting is, but just the style and how it gels so well with the script, giving such a unique feeling. The script itself is just * *chef’s kiss* * with the dialogue being cute and honestly really funny at certain parts, and the characters are so interesting… and TERRIFYING I LOVE IT!! This is the kind of fantasy I’ve been wanting, something different. I don’t need there to be another Tolkien flavored adventure story with the same basic premise, style and feel. This film is why I ADORE the Dark Crystal, it’s a Fantasy that creates its own feel and style. The creatures are eerie and slowly you get use to it to find that they’re really beautiful nonetheless. I also loved how it dealt with stories and writing in general, having really funny “riddle” sections and having books that have conscious thoughts and feelings… without needing to say a single word. I don’t know, I found a new favorite and I’m FORCING EVERYONE I KNOW TO WATCH. A loooot will get turned off, but man, I wanna help make this a cult classic.

[@congratsbro.]

Man, what a comment! I'm so happy to read things like this! When I was in college my best friend said " the dark Crystal is such an amazing movie" and I watched it and immediately did research on the production company and found mirror mask. These types of films should be cherished. The dark crystal, Labyrinth and Mirrormask should all be considered cult classics. I'm glad I could facilitate your experience!!

[@chimedemon]

@@congratsbro. for sure man and great video! Honestly I’m trying to stop procrastinating and work on my own type of story that’s been inspired by these types of stories because maaan there’s so much potential. (I remember being fascinated by In Praise of Shadows’s “Return to Oz is an Absolute Nightmare” and THAT film’s really incredible fantasy setting, as well as things like “The Adventures of Baron Munchausen” and I don’t know, I’m rambling, I just think there’s lots of potential :)

[@nicholasp7758]

You are criminally underrated

[@congratsbro.]

Hey thank you so much man! I honestly really appreciate it. More content coming.

[@helen8022]

I KNEW THIS MOVIE WAS A THING! I barely remember watching it on TV but in Spanish (cuz I'm mexican) and being so intrigued and a little bit creeped out by it, but I loved the art and style of the movie. Luckily I was able to find a copy on eBay for $7 in the US, but you can find it online in the Spanish dub typing in "mirror mask película completa en español". Loved this video too, and I never knew it was a Jim Henson film.

[@willowloe6917]

I believe I watched in Spanish as a child too and couldn’t find this for years

[@fruityfroot4413]

I watched Mirrormask with a friend in perhaps 2016 and the transformation scene with the eerie 'close to you' cover has been living in my head rent free ever since. Seriously can't listen to any other version now... Great film, such a shame it faded into almost-obscurity!

[@DefiniteRicardo]

I remember when I was younger my father rented this film, yeah I was living in Venezuela at the time and I still don’t know how especially that video store had that film, since then I forgot about the movie but I recently found it on my recommendations tab on KZbin lol

[@congratsbro.]

Nice man. Yeah this movie definitely deserves way more recognition. Its honestly sad

[@SweeeeetTea]

I love this movie! My family got the DVD of it way back when it was released because we were such big fans of labyrinth and dark crystal, and hearing that it's so hard to find makes me happy that we held onto our copy. I hope others are able to find it!

[@Jargonfox]

I'm commenting kinda prematurely since I'm only 10 minutes into the video, but wow yeah, thanks KZbin for recommending this, and thank you for making this video. I saw Mirrormask on the TV maybe around 10 years back, then found the DVD at a flea market, aaand since then I've watched it whenever it's my birthday (has turned into a bit of a tradition). The movie has such a mystical vibe to it I can't explain, and some parts are very unintentional ASMR to me, espeeecially the "Close to you" scene and the next 5-ish minutes afterwards with no dialogue - tho said ASMR vibe also goes for some of the soundtrack. Wish more people knew of the movie like you much said around the start of this, so difficult to recommend properly when the DVD is the only way to watch it.

[@codeyvo]

I NEVER forgot about this movie because the soundtrack and the visuals were just so unique and striking. I am of the thought that this film was relatively safe from obscurity because Neil Gaiman is a visionary in surreal fantasy. Althoughit would be nice to see more streaming services adopt this film, I am sure this film will always have a place in out timeline and there will be at least someone who keeps taking about it online (like you :D)

[@SquooshyBrainMeats]

You did it! It's now available to rent and buy in KZbin!

[@congratsbro.]

WOW, that's amazing news! I highly doubt I had anything to do with it, but that is genuinely amazing. You know what? I'm just going to take credit for it.

[@ranebowpartyrumpisto]

I somehow managed to find this on dvd in texas of all places in a full Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, and Mirror Mask dvd set! I was actually first exposed to this from my art teacher in middle school years ago and managed to track down the movie on KZbin at the time! All cut up into multiple parts I’m glad to see some love for it!

[@mermade6516]

Neil Gaiman just reblogged a link to this. I suspect you're going to get a lot of well deserved views.

[@seanocd]

Another fantastic video. I love Gaiman and McKean's collaborations, but somehow never heard of this film. I'll have to hunt it down now.

[@congratsbro.]

Thank you! Great to hear. I hope you enjoy it

[@yesterdaysjam8464]

i had to watch this film a few times before i loved it... im not a fan of jazz but it won me over. just really astonishing how it gets in your head. the soundtrack, screenplay, filming, and effects are all incredible. and ive shown it to a few people too. i didnt know it was a labyrinth sequel.

[@JaneDoe-po4gu]

i gotta bookmark this cuz i remember LOVING mirror mask and have et to hear ANYONE mention it since

[@congratsbro.]

Well I really hope you like my take on the film. Great to see that other people actually know about it. Thanks for the comment!

[@damian.k.nguyen]

been more than a decade since i watched this and yesterday it just came back to me in a dream lol. this movie is a hidden gem

[@RuckalltheFules]

This movie introduced me to Neil Gaimen and revolutionized the way i see what is possible with film making. Just because you know and love this film makes you deel like a very old friend. No ome quite gets this film the way i do in my life and it makws me incredibly sad. Thank you so so very much for all the fun facts. This like the film is a gem. Thank you!!!!

[@OkaytheSilly]

Love to see someone talking about this movie, we had it on dvd and it really defined my childhood

[@luisadobreva]

Thank you so much for taking the time and care to talk about this movie! Its one of my all time favourites! I rented it randomly when I was younger at a blockbuster store and it was an amazing experience. I got it on dvd not long after that so I'm grateful I get to rewatch it whenever I want. Loved your video from start to finish!!

[@bill8100]

this video is all i've been looking for And i am more than amazed knowing there are someone who reviewed this movie with such a very great details, along with informations, clips (that i didn't even know they're exist!) and trivia, this video fill my thirst of curiosity over my most favorite childhood movie. Indeed the movie feels dreamy and hard to find, so does with the movie review. Knowing you're reviewing this, gosh i'm in love

[@Ambsacefortune]

Thank you for covering this lost gem, this is a movie that has stayed in my top favorites since I saw it nearly a decade ago as an art college student. Now I need to watch it again, I need to dig it out from its resting spot.

[@SilverDrakez]

Fantastic video! Mirrormask is one of my most favourite movies and I was obsessed with it as a kid. Something reminded my sister of it recently and we rewatched it together earlier in the year. Such a fever dream of a movie. I loved learning more about it, thank you for sharing!

[@valeriappd]

This film means so much for me!!! Thank you ❤❤❤

[@Lakefront_Khan]

Glad your back bro, I found your Wilfred, watched the whole thing and was so tired when I went to work I dropped a whole burger in a fryer.

[@congratsbro.]

Hahaha, bro that's awesome. I hope you didn't get in trouble lol. Thanks for watching bro

[@wallacecrowmanproject9235]

Found your channel recently and have been really loving it!

[@congratsbro.]

Hey thank you so much!

[@chantyc1929]

This is my favorite movie of all times. I dont know why but I love it. I manage to download it and I have the file and I am scared to lose it so I have like 4 copies in different places to make sure I dont lose it. It was nice to hear you know so much information about it. and everything you explained. Thank you for making this video!

[@maruk8079]

growing up i saw this movie in bits and pieces as it was shown on cable TV, probably a few years after 2005, and was completely obssessed with it. also the first movie i ever torrented once i got a bit older because i could not find it anywhere lol

[@lukethomas658]

I found this movie after reading American Gods and tracking down Neil Gaiman's projects. It was my "head's too full, just need to get lost" escape for years. I still have a DVD kicking around somewhere.

[@offcenterideas]

Absolutely fell in love with this movie when I first saw it! Owned a copy for years before it I lent it and never got it back. Appears to now be on Prime Video though!

[@thescrybe]

Mirror Mask is one of my favorites. I love rewatching. Such a beautiful film. Such an underrated classic. Thanks for reviewing.

[@brucethetoaster]

The best film ever made. Your sincerity & passion do it such justice, incredible work. (also I've seen this movie countless times and never caught the Queen's palace was Embassy Court so thanks for that!)

[@tiffanyzee]

I've been trying to remember this movie for way too long. Thank you 😊

[@congratsbro.]

No problem at all. Glad I could help

[@nico634]

my taste of music and movies shifted after watching this movie. this is my favoriteeee movie and I'm so happy to see someone appreciate it as much as i do! thank you so much for taking the time to make this

[@congratsbro.]

Of course, and thank you for the sweet comment! I love reading comments like this

[@michaelbohannon527]

Wow, a movie I've never seen. Good job dude, gonna check it out. Been so long I forgot I subbed to this channel. May the Gods of furious strong be with you in pursuits of great Justice.

[@congratsbro.]

Sweet! Thanks man

[@professorunitato]

I’m so delighted to see a video on mirror mask. I grew up watching the dark crystal and the labyrinth so when I found out about mirror mask I was thrilled. I used to borrow the dvd from my public library and watched it over and over again. It’s wonderful to see that other people love this movie too

[@Zabiaru]

U deserve to be recognized bro. I really hope u prosper. Love the video

[@congratsbro.]

Thank you dude! If I wasn't so busy all the time id probably make a video every couple weeks but since I take so long, the algorithm sort of forgets about me. Maybe one day.

[@raphaelazevedocampos7592]

Great video man !

[@congratsbro.]

Thanks bro!

[@adambelton6728]

Great vid! One of my favorite movies as a kid, glad to see it getting some attention.

[@dinksmallwood5561]

Another great video. Will check out this movie for sure.

[@congratsbro.]

Thank you so much!

[@h.rhiannona]

I grew up with this movie and watched it all the time. my dad has the dvd and i have seen no one talk about it. i almost thought i was making it up because it was so wacky! great video.

[@chandlerkeown2808]

It’s available on KZbin for free with adds if you’re wanting to watch it. I highly recommend it!

[@MissSteam]

had my copy for 13 years now, pretty sure my life would be completely different if I never watched it, this video was great defiantly gave me a new appreciation to my all-time favourite movie its a shame they priced it so much in the USA since its $5-$25 on amazon in Europe

[@JeremyVega113]

The movie is free to watch on KZbin!! I just watched it :)

[@khylaren]

I love that movie so much. I'm fortunate enough to have purchased a copy on DVD for $20 I think. It didn't deserve to be ignored the way it was.

[@613harbinger316]

I actually saw this movie at the Landmark's Nuart Theater in Santa Monica (the one that shows The Rocky Horror Picture Show every weekend). I honestly don't remember why I ended up seeing it there as I'm not much of an indie movie guy, but I'm glad I did. Bought the DVD when it came out and have watched it repeatedly for almost two decades now. It's funny that whenever I mention it to friends, they've either never heard of it or hate it, lol.

[@letsgetcutty786]

Great vid! 👍

[@congratsbro.]

Thank you!

[@coelhoaliceaguiam]

i absolutely love this movie... i wanted to watch it with so many people, have been looking for it for ages...

[@a.a.g.h.1679]

I picked the book adaptation of this movie up on a whim, and now I’ve watched the movie here on KZbin and I’m gonna listen to the audiobook next, I really like the atmosphere and music and art direction of the movie

[@jessbritt8296]

Finally people catch on to this masterpiece 🙌🏼

[@MagnetMagicGirl]

I'm so happy I found this video! I love this movie and actually have the DVD for it. I found it in a Walmart several years ago in a 3 for 1 with Labyrinth and Dark Crystal. I never knew the gem I had. (For anyone desperate to watch this, KZbin has the digital version)

[@Firelegs101]

My mother and I found a DVD to this in like 2008 and loved it. My mother was a huge Labyrinth fan before this and later I found out about Dark Crystal.

[@sweenmachine7493]

It's crazy all the obscure movies out there and this is the one nobody I know, knows

[@joannajojospooner6706]

I have 2 copies of Mirrormask on dvd, i bought another when i temporarily misplaced my original one. I couldnt live without it 😂😂 This is probably one of my most favourite films ❤

[@anthropoflower]

Here! Ready, getting popcorn

[@congratsbro.]

Sweet!!

[@tonyvillarreal1812]

I was fortunate to find at a third-party bookstore called Bookmans in Tucson Arizona. A large illustrated book about the movie. Filled with pictures. And information how about how they made this work. That was over 10 yrs ago. And i still share it and this film, with anyone who sits at my Dungeons & Dragons table.

[@Lina-py5wm]

It's free on youtube right now!!

[@nobodymr6661]

can i have the link

[@smolcat66]

I remember watching this at a museum with my dad when I was a kid

[@rob-boticscalisthenicshome6355]

This review prompted me to go buy the film. I wasnt aware of its existence and I wasn't disappointed thanks

[@amandabrawley2872]

I have this on DVD and I love it and I watch it from time to time 💕

Also Mrs. Bagwell at the mask shop is a call back to Helena's grandmother. They sound similarly "barking mad" :P

[@user-cq9ze8rk8s]

my favorite movie from kindergarten. a year ago, I specifically found and revised it. it was worth it.

[@russell1626]

I was born in 2001 and I have no idea why but we had this on dvd and I was always so obsessed with it for me entire childhood. I used to watch it so much it has had a critical part in forming my adult personality

[@mariacunningham3030]

all three are on my shelf and wen it came out got the dvd as soon as was available. so I agree with you.

[@cynthiakeller6149]

Great vid.

This movie was amazing. I got it by chance. When all the blockbusters and Hollywood videos were closing

[@infradig696]

Another masterpiece!

Man, your comments are always great. Thank you bro

@@congratsbro. well, I mean it! You might take a million years to release a video, but they are masterpieces! My only criticism is I liked the format of your first video the best. You broke the fourth wall every video after that, and it doesn't feel right. Just my humble opinion, though.

[@congratsbro.]

@@infradig696 Thank you so much man. And hey that's a totally fair point. At some point Ill probably end up making another video like that again. But thank you for the comments man. For real

I bought it on dvd from a movie rental store for like

[@Waredith]

Oh wow, I have this on DVD! Love the film.

[@maemae6364]

This movie shaped me hard! It’s my top three favorite film to the point I have “ don’t let them see you’re afraid” on my arm

[@mmmmmetta]

I didn’t realize this was two years ago but mirrormask was my shit and it’s free with ads on yt

[@janedoeeyed4155]

It's available on KZbin now!!!

[@lazk98]

Montrealer here...perhaps its because of where i live but i have a feeling a few shows from Cirque Du Soleil were either inspired by this film or if the film was inspired by Cirque du Soleil....it feels incredibly familiar to me. The tone, setting, soundtrack. Great video!

This movie was fundamental in my art and music taste and a nostalgic favorite. If anyone is searching for it, I have found it several times through public library systems, and it can be ordered if your branch doesn’t have it. I was lucky enough to find a cheap dvd for sale a while ago and treasure it

i saw this as a kid and spent years thinking i made it up or something because i didnt know the name and only remembered the scene with the riddle and sphinx

[@4444genral]

Hey man just wanted to say keep up the good work! I got both Wilfred and Drag Me to Hell in my library on your recommendation and I'll have to get this on the list! BTW I saw your pam video blew up which is dope dude awesome work! If anyone really watches the video through and through and still sides with pam, they are definitely a pam. It's actually a pretty good karen detector honestly. Send it to a potential karen and if they side with pam, they're probably a karen.

[@congratsbro.]

Hey, the Pam video is back up. Just FYI

[@dredointhacutt5568]

I wanna watch this movie now..never seen it but seems great

[@congratsbro.]

Please do, people are telling me its way easier to find now. I think its even for rent on youtube
