Spellbound | Ending Scene Recap | Final Battle | Flinks vs Soldiers Fight | Ellian Breaks The Spell

[@Stephanie.32]

Just watched Spellbound on Netflix, and it deeply resonated with me. Growing up in a broken family, I could relate to Ellian’s journey of navigating pain, anger, and acceptance while trying to mend what seemed irreparable. The movie teaches us that even when love between parents fades, the way they handle it can shape a child’s world. For those parents who no longer love each other, remember: your choices and actions still teach your children about love, respect, and resilience. It also reminded me how anger, if not addressed, can become a barrier to healing. Acceptance isn’t easy, but it’s a powerful step toward finding peace. Spellbound was more than a magical tale-it’s a reflection on love, forgiveness, and the courage to move forward. The film explores profound themes, such as family dynamics and the emotional impact of divorce, through a fantastical and heartfelt lens. It highlights Ellian's journey of self-discovery as she tries to reconcile her family and heal the kingdom. I'm finding it relatable, it might be because of its exploration of family struggles, misunderstandings, or reconciliation. The story captures the emotions and complexity of dealing with strained relationships in a way that feels magical yet deeply human. It's no wonder it strikes a chord with many viewers. GREAT JOB! - I AM STILL CRYING... EVEN AFTER I WATCHED THIS MOVIE ... OH NO...

This with the mood. I had an abusive dad and i missed the way it was when i was younger and weny through all this. But he never got better. I imagined these are maybe neglectful parents or ones with dimensia (or abuse) and havinv to take care of them or neglectful and fighting a lot not realizing its hurting her Its just AHHH AHHH I CRYED. MULTIPLE TIMES DO YOU KNW HOW MUCH AMGST I READ DAILY? I DONT CRYYYY ANYMORE. ive come close but i legit was in tears MULTIPLE TIMES both thinking of dimensiq or injured patients getting their memory back or abusive parents maybe realizing what happened before its completely to late BOTH MAKE ME SOB 😂

​@@funwithfacts9413 the movie was really not that bad, why overexaggerate and be so dramatic

[@dexterjones2201]

Despite all of this, a part of me really thought that there was a sign of treason against the King and Queen. I thought someone followed them to the dark forest and put the spell on them intentionally and get rid of the princess after that is finished. I believed that it was the captain of the guard.

[@andmos1001]

Captain of the guard is basically child service where they will intervene on behalf of the child if things get real messy. They also represent those that look from outside, seeing the mess that requires intervention to bring peace and stability back.

[@caseyl4699]

The exact same way every divorced couple can get married and then stop getting along. They literally said they stopped bringing out the best in each other. Which means at one point they felt they did bring out the best and loved each other. Yall do understand that people can grow apart and stop working as a couple but that doesn't mean they never loved each other. Thats literally half the point of the movie. I don't think any of you payed attention at all. And they clearly dont hate each other at the end either. They're very friendly for exes

[@BrightElk]

So many children live through this and they know friends going through this at school. There’s no reason we should keep kids in the dark about this reality. Ironically vilifying divorce has led to adults avoiding marriage altogether. Can’t get divorced if you don’t get married at all! It’s too risky. Am I right? I understand if you don’t want very young children to watch this but this is perfectly fine for older children and teens who are going to find out eventually either through cousins or friends at school.

[@joyeetaghosh2209]

But divorce often happens bcs of cheating in that case the partner who got cheated on can't be in a friendly relationship with the other partner who cheated

[@aelitastone5629]

They can't support that their child face some reallity they didn't like. But divorce is present all the time with children like Ellian in the middle. Overprotect children do not serve them.

[@9751matt]

Because a healthy marriage is something one should aim for, and this movie hates that. The creators are bitter people who want to make the world worse. Divorces do happen, but it should never be seen as an inevitability. People shouldn't throw themselves into life long commitments without thinking, they need to be choosy about who they marry.

[@Catilena1890]

@@9751matt That's not what this is at all. This movie is showing what happens when a marriage ISN'T healthy. Not every marriage is happily ever after, and sometimes it just can't be fixed. For some marriages, divorce IS inevitable because if you stay in a marriage where you and your partner legitimately don't love each other, it hurts the kids you are staying together for. They tried to make it work, and the daughter tried to get them to make it work, but they just can't. As far being choosy about who to marry, people make mistakes. The whole theory about Ellian's parents being an arranged marriage aside (which does still happen today, btw), people can make mistakes. People can change. At 30-40 (the rough age range for Ellian's parents) you might not be the same person you were in your 20's. When people change, they can fall out of love with each other. That's not a guarantee, but it can happen, and it's alright. It's not a flaw to recognize when something is flawed, and it's not a flaw to take a step back and say "well shit, this isn't working. Maybe we can work together better, apart." Some people DO genuinely co-parent better when they are out of the relationship. As I said in another comment, divorce is the end of a marriage, but it's not always the end of the relationship. You can absolutely remain friends with your child's other parent and still work together to make each other's lives better and do what's best for the child. I've even heard stories of people who meet their current spouse through their former spouse and got their blessing. The point of the movie is to show what happens when you and your partner fight and pull your kid into it. It's mostly for the children who are watching their parents fight and argue and destroy everything around them right now. The movie isn't trying to tear families apart, it's trying to bring them together by letting you know it's okay to BE apart. It's trying to let you know that your children need parents who protect and guide them more than they need parents who pretend to still be in love.

[@BrightElk]

@@9751mattYou’ve never watched you mom get hit in the face by someone you love watch as they apologize and promise never to do it again and then they do it again next week followed by another empty apology and promise and then again and again for years and it never stops. Yeah. I guess my mom just didn’t try hard enough to fix him! She should have done the right thing and waited for him to unalive her. At least then she could leave the world with some dignity. Divorcing doesn’t do well for appearances am I right? What will the neighbours and the church think?!

[@saxosipho]

​​​@@9751matt It's a sad, bitter truth, but sometimes the best thing a family can do is split up. Circumstances change. Relationships change. _People_ change. And that's ok. This attitude, the condemnation of no-fault divorces, is precisely why people stay in these unhealthy relationships that do nothing but bring out the worst of each other and hurt everyone involved. It's not fair to the parents, and it's not fair to the children. But as the reply above me said, just because a marriage ends doesn't mean the relationship has to. There's a reason the movie ends with the parents throwing a surprise birthday party for their daughter together. Though they weren't able to go back to how things were before, they still found ways to be happy and work together. THAT'S what this movie is about. It's not about "hating" healthy marriages, it's about showing that you don't need to _stay_ married to have a good relationship. That needing some time away from each other doesn't make you bad people. That you can still be good parents even if you couldn't be a good couple. Circumstances change. Relationships change. People change. Why can't happiness change too?

[@abra7777]

Family is not always there for you. My Dad died and my Mom has abandoned me. She literally told me that it would be my Christmas present to her if I didn't come at Christmas. When I went to her crying because I missed my Dad, she said, "You may have lost a Father, but I lost a husband." I have "Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy" aka "Broken Heart Syndrome" which is supposed to be temporary, but my heart still skips beats and it has been years. I have PTSD and I am agoraphobic. I used to be a straight A student and athletic and now I am a mess. I just needed my Mom to love me and was completely unaware she didn't until Dad died. My own Mother that I love and trusted betrayed me and I don't even know what I did to deserve it. I don't even know how a Mother cannot love her own child. She literally destroyed my life, when she is supposed to protect me and be there for me. I am still in shock.

[@isheeeeeeeee]

your mom is an asshole what the fuck. girlie cant even be sympathetic to her own child?! yes, she might have lost her husband but you were younger than her when it happened meaning your brain are not as developed as hers which means you need more care. if possible, get away from her asap.

[@Mysterious-Night]

@@carsinruin6102divorce is not always the worst option

[@Medicated_Music]

As a child of divorce, it is much better to get a divorce than to pretend and play happy family. My father was horribly depressed and had almost become absent if he hadn't separated from my mother and remarried into a much happier, healthier relationship once he knew we were stable. My mother was abusive in more ways than one. She was addicted to alcohol and the medicine I was supposed to be on in order to control my ADHD, she belittled me while also love bombing me making me feel dependent and insecure, she put a strain on my mental health as a little child. Did it hurt to have my family separated? Yes. But my Dad made me feel loved after the divorce and I got a mother through my step-mom during my most sensitive years. So please, if you have no idea what you are talking about, don't speak on the matter.
