Pink Floyd The Wall Full Movie (Reaction)

[@mopardad3959]

Dude ,you did Pink Floyd the wall the right way ,no short cuts or skipping the songs. MUCH RESPECT to you,way to go man.

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

I wasn't sure if I would ever watch The Wall again but Dude makes it feel new again.

[@LunarJetwoman]

Why on earth would anyone ever ‘skip’ a pink Floyd song? Where are these people ? Get em up against the wall 🔨

[@crucialfyah]

The poem the teacher reads in the classroom 25 minutes in, is part of the lyrics to the song Money on Dark Side Of The Moon

[@mgordon1100]

@crucialfyah It's pretty funny that he didn't bat an eye to those lines. Could it be that he was too stoned to remember or that he just really doesn't pay attention? One thing I'm pretty sure of is that he just doesn't get The Floyd. He asked the question of Dark Side, how many of us were dancing to this music. 🙄

[@conorhayes8818]

The wall is a metaphor for this troubled guy who isolated himself from everyone due to trauma. Every song is another brick and it represents himself blocking himself from people. You can see the symbolisms of the teacher animation turning to the fascist hammer, implying the teachers methods were that of an authoritarian. There’s hundreds of symbolisms, and he’s comfortably numb is him being injected with drugs and later goes crazy believing himself to be a fascist dictator. He feels so guilty after this that he puts himself up in a metaphorical trial, when the wall falls pink is left to the open world with the rubble. Roger waters wrote a lot of it based on his own life with snippets of Syd Barret. It is a big epic album and nothing I’ve seen has beaten it story wise

[@PaulHansen-h5y]

Best synopsis I've read.

[@DanielTate-wt9jt]

During the trial he puts himself on, he judges that he must tear down the wall to restore his sanity. On the album, if you listen very closely after the outro to the album, the last thing on the album is a spoken line. The line is, "Isn't this where?" Then, when you flip the album over and restart it, the very first lines at the beginning of the album are "we came in." This is to show how, in life, after we build our walls and tear them down, we just start building a new wall, and the cycle continues. And the whole thing begins again.

[@jontastic]

Pink’s early trauma continues through his life. Mr Kezzy doesn’t seem to have empathy or sympathy. Like man up bro, go cap your wife and her lover. Not everyone thinks of murder when a relationship sours. Maybe watch The Blitz released 2021. In addition to his father’s death, there were bombing raids, food rationing, his inconsiderate mother, threats of German invasion…

[@stanmann356]

@@conorhayes8818 The only album that comes close, story-wise, is Operation Mindcrime by Queensryche.

[@antimatter2380]

Its not just his dad. It's the school system failing him and a teacher that belittled him and beat him, his wife cheating on him, the excessesfamd pressures of being a famous musician, drug use, psychosis, etc. Each of these are just added bricks to the wall of his separation from reality.

[@mobilerepro]

It is a personality disorder in Pink. One aspect of this disorder is the assignment of blame to others. Hence the desire for isolation. Only when Pink is all alone with himself can he realize that it were not „the others“. Until then, guilt is handed over to others. That is why it continues, because this disturbance still exists. Even after isolation. This is probably an unwanted confession from Roger Waters, because maybe his personality was similar in her disorder to that of Pink.

[@antimatter2380]

@mobilerepro I'm no therapist and I know the backstory on Water's grown distain for the audience etc. But as a stand-alone movie, I see it as more nurture than nature. Though I'm sure there is an underlining mental condition. Pink is sitting in the hotel room isolated from the beginning of the movie recalling all the traumatic events in his life and how each one was another brick to that isolating moment. Only when Numb ends is he "reborn" into the blaming of others and the violence that comes with it. Once the damage is done, he then goes into the mental trial and finds guilt within himself. And I always presumed he killed himself and left the next generation cleaning up his mess instead of facing the consequences. But that's just my take.

[@LunarJetwoman]

That’s astute analysis. I differ slightly from your assessment of him and after careful consideration, my professional opinion is he’s batshit crazy….. he even tells you that on the trial. I’ll meet you in the middle then and can we agree he’s a couple of butties short of a picnic 🤪

[@LunarJetwoman]

@@antimatter2380on the album it actually says before the first track ‘ we came in’ and after the last track it says ‘ is this where ‘ I think .. so if you play it on a loop it’s says is this where we came in.

[@Jighm]

@antimatter2380 yeah, there was actually one point in the movie that was tying all of that together through rapid flashback scenes and you had your eyes closed during it.

I've been looking for the film reaction on KZbin for weeks. This is the very first reaction to this movie that does it credit. The only other The Wall Movie reactions either have terrible sound, or the people reviewing it have no clue what's going on, don't use captions and completely misunderstood what's happening. Thanks man! This is how you do Pink Floyd!

[@davevanvuuren578]

Floyd gets into your soul. Been listening since 1970. When I need to destress, go into a dark room and plug Floyd in. My wife sometimes tells me to plug in knowing I come back completely calm. Therapeutic is the only word that comes to mind. The more you listen, the more you need. Dave south Africa.

1:07:58 “Vera” is about real person Vera Lynn (born March 20, 1917, East Ham, Essex [now in Greater London], England-died June 18, 2020, Ditchling, East Sussex) Dame Vera Margaret Lynn was an English singer whose sentimental material and wholesome stage persona endeared her to the public during World War II. Broadcasts of her songs of love and longing were particularly resonant with members of the military fighting abroad, which led to her nickname, “the Forces’ Sweetheart.” She remained popular into the 21st century.

[@scottrsmith2389]

My mom used to sing Some Sunny Day while working around the house. Vera was a treasure.

[@kierstenridgway4634]

[@walter6574]

The Wall is a film about building emotional walls to shield oneself from the world, hiding one’s true self. The masks on the children symbolize society's push for conformity, making everyone behave the same way and follow society's rules. Pink, the protagonist, struggles with the trauma of his father's senseless death during the war, hinted at with the metaphor, "Daddy's flown across the ocean," meaning his father is gone. Pink’s poems, written in his notebook, include lyrics from The Dark Side of the Moon. The film was made after the release of The Wall album, and as a devoted Pink Floyd fan, I didn’t fully grasp the album's depth until I saw the film. One of the most striking lines for me is: "And my eye still goes damp to find his majesty SIGNED it with his own rubber STAMP,” referring to a cold, official letter King George sent to Pink’s mother about his father's death. Pinky evolves into a rock star who is burned out by the repetition and emptiness of fame, only experiencing variety in the change of city from one gig to the next. This cycle leads him to experiment with increasingly heavy drugs. After "Comfortably Numb," Pink appears at a show as a fascist leader, embodying a tyrant who combines Nazi and Ku Klux Klan elements. The hammers are a metaphor for fascist symbols like the swastika, as Pink leads followers in hateful ideologies against marginalized groups.

Much respect you , my great grandfather was killed serving to protect the British from the Germans and died on Christmas Day of 44 and it changed many of lives for my family

[@noneofurbizness5838]

I've known Pink Floyd before I was born, my dad, when we lived in Anchorage Alaska in 1973-74, would come home, get the fireplace going, turn on a tanning lamp, throw on his headphones and smoke a Jay. Seriously. I still remember that. Can't remember a day in my life without Floyd..

[@LunarJetwoman]

@@noneofurbizness5838 explain the tanning lamp thing for me…. I’m assuming your dad was just in a pair of Speedo’s to get the full benefit of his after work tanning session after getting the fire going which makes me think you was sitting there freezing until he got home and starting chonging jazz cigarettes in front of his kid??? And put headphones so you couldn’t even hear Floyd ? None of this makes sense to me 🤷‍♀️ I’m guessing by your username that it’s none of my business

I think the masks worn by the kids represents how the system tries to erase kids' individuality ... instead of all being unique beings, they all just look the same. Also, it was shown by how they were turning them in to generic ground beef, to wipe out their unique individuality.

[@KrizzySummerz]

Notice how the teacher is unhappy and henpecked by his wife at home and takes out his own inadequacies and frustration out on Pink and the children he teaches overall

[@DrVonChilla]

in a nutshell: "The Wall" is about the Englishman Roger Waters losing his Dad in the war against the Germans in WWII and then struggling to handle the stresses of being a world famous rock star.

[@Nein1no]

That's like 25% of it, as his own story can be used to supplement the story being told in The Wall, but Roger Waters has stated that it isn't 'about' him. It's more of a commentary about how one can become detached and self-isolate (building a wall) to the point of blaming others for your own internal insecurities... which can lead one to fascism as they attempt to connect to 'something' - and that 'something' is a unified hatred and fear. As the trial concludes, it ultimately shows that it is self-defeating though as even as you battle and 'win' against your 'enemies', you are still left with the wall. You can only get rid of the wall by addressing it. By actually looking for a possible door that others may be trying to get you to find, rather than trying to climb the whole thing all at once by yourself (an impossible task).

[@vincestapels2022]

Roger's said that only the "father" and "doctor" are relevant to himself.

[@Lemmingadventures]

The Wall is a metaphor for a psychological wall inside his head. Every experience, mostly negative is a brick that is a part of his psychological wall. This is a hard movie to follow since it doesn't follow the traditional movie format. It's almost like pulp fiction in that scenes are not in order. You have to watch it multiple times.

[@GrampyCreates]

So many reaction videos of the songs from The Wall with no context or even an awareness that this movie exists! Kudos for doing this! Loved watching your eyes being opened!

[@likemindedpeopleknow]

I went to the show when it first came out and listened to the album many times before hand, and it probably took me and other people I know well over 25 years or so to fully understand the meaning of this masterpiece.And there's some things I catch that I didn't realize still to this day. I noticed something just watching this that I never caught before. Now after this watch the Wall live in Berlin year 1991 Roger Waters does this show and there's also one that he performed in 2017

[@stevepecorella2704]

See how it went for pink & the fatherless English rock musicians after WW2? The drug culture & solving every struggle with violence. He just secluded himself from his family and friends. That last song is teaching us to be open with loved ones. His mom was kind of controlling. Wife a dirty woman from the 60s. So he went crazy as she’s been unfaithful as he’s been on a USA tour. Yet, life’s not easy for anyone trying to get through his wall. You got most of this artist’s message. All of us Floyd fans were surprised too when the movie came out. So don’t be ashamed. Thanks for posting.

[@TurningoffyourGaslights]

I remember seeing this in the movies when I was in my late teens. The scene where be breaks down and trashes the suite, hanging out the window with his hand on the glass shard, bleeding, cursing out the world...the whole theater was sitting there in stunned silence ...wow, so intense. So many disturbing themes and scenes in this movie. And these messages.....look around us today.

[@StephenAllison-gl2ky]

We all build our own wall around us. To protect us.

[@TrianglesAndCircles]

@@StephenAllison-gl2ky Yes, it's a psychological wall and it's deep as it is tall. It protects us from overstimulation from our environment. Without it we could easily lose our minds in the abyss of traumatic experiences and the overwhelming amount of largely useless information we could be perceiving which have no particular purpose in our biological survival. Why can we see rainbows but not gamma rays. Why is our sense of smell limited to identifying that which keeps us alive and eliminating that which is a threat to our biological survival? Think not too hard because our brain and central nervous system eliminate more sensory data than it absorbs. We can't handle all of it because we are too busy surviving.

It was pretty fun watching you sort of re-discover the album. I had a similar experience so don't feel bad not picking things up the first time!

“All in all, or in two’s the ones who truly love you, walk up and down outside your wall. Some hand in hand, some gathered together in bands, the bleeding hearts and the artists make their stand. And when they’ve given you their all, some stagger and fall afterall, it’s not easy banging your heart against some mad buggers wall.” - Pink Floyd The Wall end credits song. We have all at one point or another watched on the sidelines as some of our loved ones struggled with their demons. Some “survive” others break through and thrive but unfortunately the majority just die. Reach out when and where the spirit leads you. Sometimes just hearing your voice can make a world of difference to someone who is suffering in silence. Many times hiding behind a smiling face, is a friend or loved one who is in too deep and just barely treading water. They’re not looking for a handout, maybe just a hand up… One of you reading this might be the one about to drown… if someone reaches out, take hold as if you’re life depends on it, because it does… Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem that leaves the ones outside “the wall” trying to pick up the pieces and make sense of it all.

To me, as a depression sufferer, I see this whole album as a man who has always pushed his emotions away. He has built a mental "wall" around himself . . . it works to a degree, but inevitably fails and he is left exposed and can't cope with all those emotions he has put behind his wall.

[@darrinholscher4897]

You've done the album and the movie. Now it's time to take the plunge. Take a tab or dose some shrooms and experience it as we did as young lads and lasses in the 80's.. 🥰🤘

Hey Man, I really enjoy watching you diving very deep to the Pink Floyd rabbit hole. Next one for you is their 5th album, but the first that put their music into the higher level of art: Atom Heart Mother, with the title track over 20 minutes long that you can't prepare for :D

[@glennmurphy4820]

They should sing this to teachers today- leave them kids alone!

[@robertstephenson7864]

Good reaction, dude. There are many good and bad things that can be said about The Wall (movie and album), but if it captures you, your life will never be the same as before.

1:28:00 the lyrics Pink mumbles here feature on Roger Waters' first solo album 'The Pros and Cons of Hitch-hiking' in the song 'The Moment of Clarity', which was (as other parts of that album and Pink Floyd's last album with RW 'The Final Cut') a leftover from the Wall. (Songs that didn't make the final cut of the The Wall album.) Both albums are very much worth a listen.

I stole my dad`s DVD once as a kid and watched this, left me both in awe and completely traumatized at the same time lmao 😂 the animations are so dope, especially for it`s time. I once read somewhere that almost each and every frame took hours to create to those animations at the time. Also, the Pink character is based on Roger Waters upbringing but also partly of the life of Syd Barret (the first frontman and creator of the band`s genesis) when his mind went to a dark and distant place. If you know the story of Syd Barret then some of these scenes of Pink makes more sense but also makes it 10 times deep and darker. Especially the scenes where Pink is sitting in that chair with his cigarette burnt down to the filter. That`s a real story that happened when Roger Waters walked into Syd`s hotelroom while on tour in LA. I`d suggest looking into his story and fate. He left the band in 1967 and closed himself off to society completely after making a couple solo albums and later died at age 60 in his Cambridge home in 2006. There`s a bunch of conspiracies and speculations around what really happened to him, but there`s nothing we know for sure, except for the fact that Syd indeed abused a bunch of LSD and other drugs before his deterioration took place in his mind.

Division bell album 1994 must be next! It's majestic!

When The Tigers Broke Free is split into two verses in this. The first is here 03:09 with the soldier in the bunker and the second verse is when he dresses in his father’s uniform. The full song is on the remastered album “The Final Cut” with other songs Roger wanted to include here and The Wall album but didn’t make… wait for it… the Final Cut

[@IggyStardust1967]

If you can find one of the old concerts they did (before Roger Waters left the band) where they performed this, that's also well worth a watch! Edit: Floyd was always ahead of the curve. The album, the movie, and the concert was a combined multi-media experience, before the term even existed.

25:52 Money get back I’m alright jack, keep you hands off my stack. New car, caviar, four star daydream, think I’ll buy me a football team. “Money” Dark Side of the Moon album

His Dad dying was a brick in the wall. The abusive teacher, the over protective mother, the infidelity of his wife, all just bricks in the wall. The wall is an emotional barrier between him and society. The first song in the bunkers was WHEN THE TIGERS BROKE FREE, was not on the album. When a reference was made about the tube, back in the day, a Television was called a Boob Tube. Great movie, better reaction.

[@geraldarsenault275]

ren and stimpy cartoon maybe; thanks for posting havent seen the movie in a while, hope youtube doesnt strike or delete it amazed you got it up in the first place

[@jamesdamiano8894]

Bob Geldoff was so good in this especially since he didn’t have any normal dialogue. All expression acting. He’s the lead singer of The Boomtown Rats. They have some really good songs. Specifically Diamond Smiles and Someone’s Looking At You. Their biggest hit was I Don’t Lije Mondays about an early school shooting. Pink’s decent into madness didn’t stem from his dad dying. It was the beginning of the first brick in the wall he built around himself. I’m curious if you’re gonna react to The Final Cut album. It’s the last Floyd album with Roger although it’s pretty much considered a Roger solo effort. It’s pretty much disliked and people would say forget it but it actually has some good stuff on it. It deals with a lot of the same concepts as The Wall. War, death, isolation and so on. Your comment about the kids cleaning the streets. After the war England was so devastated that everyone had to chip in to get the country going again.

[@Christopher50now]

So glad I got to see this. 😊✌️I’ve enjoyed your journey and now you’re finding out why Pink Floyd is definitely that band. Can’t wait till you find out how Gilmour and Waters fell out and band drama. Edit: When you start your Pulse reaction do the whole thing from start to finish like you’ve been doing. Do the remixed version because it has been enhanced visually so you can see the light show better.

around minute 35 when she states she's the one from the registry office, it meas she's the wife, they where clearly falling apart by then and that was her attempt of reconciliation with a drug addict.

[@angelagraves865]

I assumed the registry office was where they got married, like the courthouse in the US.
