For all those saying "water has no shape" referring to the title. Exactly. The title is a play on words. Referring to the fact that love has no shape. So since the love interest is with a humanoid water creature it's "The Shape of Water". Meaning the shape of love. Love has no limitation just like water.

"If we do nothing, neither are we." One of the best quotes I have heard in a while...

[@topheftyr533]

Basically, the reason there is evil in the world, is because good men do nothing about said evil. In other words, not taking action against bad things makes you just as bad as the things you are letting happen. I hope this clarifies.

[@natalied.6106]

I don't think you guys understand the real point of this movie. You're all saying "digusting, gross, a love story between a sea monster and a woman, this is zoophilia" etc. but the theme is being completely missed. Eliza was mute. Everyone saw her differently, and it made her feel almost inhuman. Therefore they literally put something inhuman into her life, and by doing that it is depicted that in a sense only two of the same kind or the same conditions as one another can see each other as they are. This is because the "sea monster" is seen differently too, and that is the whole reason they form a bond- because they as individuals see nothing wrong with each other. This movie is an nothing short of a masterpiece because it hits so close to home for some people and the cast/crew flawlessly explained that in such an intricate, beautiful way. I applaud all of the well-deserved awards this film has been given.

U r so right

[@tachapantejasen3238]

Jonathan Okto Kurnia absolutely agree!!! I love this movie so much. They always claim that they not into it cause how can one person would fall in love with a beast when what this movie try to convey is to look beyond that exterior. Elisa is deaf and feel abnormal from her society, but to the beast she’s normal cause he doesn’t know about the human world. So she fell in love with him cause she finally feel like she is accepted by someone. They say this movie is not realistic, but won’t complain about Harry Potter or Lord of the ring, so smh.

[@RedInkx]

I like beauty and the beast, but I always thought (in the years I was old enough to actually start thinking) how she was a creep for actually going for the beast. I like this movie too, but the main character is a creep for coming on to a fish.

I didn't like Beauty Of The Beast either, so yeah. Its fucking disgusting

[@nathaliag7720]

[@saltlessbread]

You know what's one of the best aspects of this movie? Their casting selection. The main actress isn't some hollywood type of girl. She's real. Authentic. Great talent. And I fucking love that

[@thebullybuffalo]

Lewis Shiva uh the usual people who are casted that are beautiful do have a lot of talent. The good thing about their casting in this film is that they chose an average looking person. She isn't more talented than other better looking women they could have chosen

[@saltlessbread]

thebullybuffalo sorry but I simply can't agree with you. There are a lot of hollywood-type good looking actors with talent. BUT there are far more with very little talent who get booked for their looks. The woman in this movie is far more talent than a lot of hip current actors.

Del toro actually wrote this movie with her being the only choice for elisa, he even said himself that shes beautiful in a non commercial type of way.

[@neotek_mgx]

After seeing this trailer, Guillermo del Toro should absolutely be the one to DIRECT the Bioshock movie.

[@monsouranda2822]

He said in multiple interview that he love Bioshock 1-2. His the perfect director for that, as long the original writers of the story help him with the script we got one hell of a series.

This movie was hauntingly beautiful and captured the spirit of the early 1960’s to a T. I also like how the message here is one of tolerance-the idea that if we have time to get to know each other, we can look past people who are different from us and see each other for the common humanity of it all. I remember when this came out, I was 18 and had just finished my first semester of college.

[@magaplex6476]

When this movie came out I was in middle school, and from seeing the ads for it I was very uninterested, but I’m 18 now, just finished my first semester of college coincidentally, when this movie popped up in my head and I decided to watch it. Very beautiful, it really moved me.

The best part is that this movie was basically written as a 'fuck you' gesture since Del Toro was turned down to direct the Creature From The Black Lagoon remake, and so he did this to spite Universal

[@Johnlindsey289]

He also turned down doing a new version of the story of Beauty and the Beast and decided to make his own version of the story with Lagoon

[@HauntFreak13]

This was better than what Universal could produce. Let them keep their shitty “Dark Universe” crap. In my opinion, this was a Creature from the Black Lagoon sequel.

Del Toro STOLE this idea from a short film written by someone else. He just changed a few things. Del Toro is a LIAR and a scam artist. The Space Between Us by CG Bros.

Caleb Guice the problem is, people tend to not see great original films and then original films don't make money. For example, The Nice Guys last year. However, this years Baby Driver and Get Out are making money so there's that.

[@legoC97]

I think people are slowly starting to realize they want originality. I loved The Nice Guys, but was super disappointed it didn't do well at the box office. But I'm glad to see Baby Driver and Get Out do well. Maybe a few years from now creativity will be the big sellers.

[@SuperILOVEus]

First time to watch this movie, and brought me to tears. It was aesthetically done. From the setting, the colors, the design and music. Guillermo del Toro did outdone himself.

@@srfrgrl1983 Don't tell me you don't have some kind of guilty pleasure. Every human does. This movie touches on that long before it begins to hint at an actual sexual attraction. Take furries/scalies for an example. Yeah, the hardcore ones are a weird community, but that's because they've learned to embrace their guilty pleasure pertaining to humanoid creatures and don't hide it like most people do. (Not saying everybody is a furry, just saying that everybody has some kind of fetish that they usually don't tell anybody). Oh and by the way, the fishman is not an animal. He has a humanoid form; he is humanized like a furry/scaly. There are sexy and objectified woman beast-characters that are far less humanoid, and nobody seems to have a problem with that.

This does have serious bioshock vibes I kept asking myself if it was underwater or not lol

[@mrpenguinn7642]

Exactly what I thaught while watching this. Got a strong Bioshock vibe from this

I'm so happy they got Sally Hawkins to be the protagonist, I love her, she is really talented and deserve much more attention

[@dania2369]

Pristosth im just glad it's not Jennifer Lawrence .

[@pristoste]

Dania well...I have to agree lol

[@luisaciriaco-rojales5541]

She should have won the Best Actress awards. She's a gem in this movie! 😭

[@pristoste]

Luisa Ciriaco she is an Oscar nominated but I don' t think it's her time yet, unfortunately. I think Frances McDormand is gonna be the winner this year, which is also great 'cause she is another amazing actress and definitely deserves it just as much

[@nicorzp]

She doesn’t say anything tho

[@cloudy0001]

i grew up reading magical realism, so i feel like this was the perfect movie for me. it was absolutely gorgeous.

[@filmbuffgrabiec5875]

This is the 'Beauty and the Beast' film from 2017 we needed, not the pointless Disney remake that just copied the animated one without understanding what made it so great! A beautifully made film with fantastic direction and performances, stunning visuals and beautiful cinematography and music, won four Oscars, but I still think Sally Hawkins was robbed of that Best Actress Oscar. As great as McDormand was in 'Three Billboards', the performance didn't stand out to me as much as Hawkins in this film, who said so much without saying anything.

[@mannaandmonsters]

Abe Sapien. The similarities are too striking: both this creature and Abe are played by Doug Jones, both have empathetic abilities it seems, and both love eggs and classic music. Either this is an unofficial prequel to Guillermo's Hellboy films or the first entry in the new Hellboy films.

[@marinarabandit]

Grandmaster Popo that's exactly what i was thinking

[@axln1723]

it's it's own stand alone film that has nothing to do with the hellboy films

[@guillengomezmiguelez1579]

btw the records that she shows him are not classical pieces it's Glenn Miller and benny Goodman both are jazz/swing musicians

[@KillakhanOne]

To the top G-Pop!

[@Cheesepuff8]

Unfortunately the new hellboy films arnt going to be directed by Guillermo and pretty sure he isn't really allowed to do any films in the old universe, but maybe Guillermo will direct some in the new universe but not the main ones

[@rhythmoriented]

The Shape of Water is like a Rorschach test. 1. Romantics see it as a unique love story that also is an ode to 30’s-60’s cinema in style and filming technique 2. Literary and visual arts folks see a cornucopia of symbolism and color analysis that will keep film students busy for a couple of generations 3. Fans of del Toro's talent see a master director who can create and then tell a strangely bizarre story while bringing very talented actors and crew to even greater heights than anyone thought possible 4. Political junkies (and I am a white/hetero male on the center-right) see it as a call for a more civil discussion both politically and socially. 5. Those who come straight from alt-right and illuminati sites call it a "beastiality" film - but won’t likely see how (*spoilers) two central characters are a male sentient god-like 'creature' and a female who actually is a 'fish out of water- and might lose sight of this as fantasy fiction. 6. Those who find it boring may prefer Transformers or other CGI-heavy flicks 7. Dudes and gals who grew up loving classic and B movie horror see an homage to creature feature films 8. Movie producers see a profitable film with a budget of under $20mil, with production value that appears to exceed $130mil - which is its worldwide ticket sales to date 9. As someone who saw about 4 dozen films in 2017, and have been predicting Oscar winners for years, I see this best pic of 2018 as arguably the best of the Oscar BP winners over the past five years

[@LookingGlassAlice8]

rhythmoriented wow haha, this seems pretty accurate : )

[@RandomAwesomeism]

What I liked from this movie was the character development, who's good who's bad, especially Strickland. The bestiality is only like a bonus to me.

[@rolf778]

Yea, people that call it beastiality must be alt right, really logical alright.

[@GaiAlubinur]

You are the love of my life

[@tryptamineodyssey]

[@BloodyCatastrophee]

She was also wonderful in Maudie!!!! :)

[@lysan6901]

She is an amazing actress!

[@appleslover]

The oscars need her

[@JAXTAROO]

It eats eggs, listens to classica music and the time period would be right for the Hellboy team to find him after they found Hellboy in 1940's. This is ABE SAPIEN !!!

[@brycebirkinbine4119]

JAXTAROO Not to mention Doug Jones is in it.

[@JDyo001]

and its also from the same director ;)

[@cristianaligarcia]

JAXTAROO my guess it will connect to hellboy maybe pans labyrinth is also connected too who knows

[@kynethika]

Its father of Abe Sapien.

[@AkshayKumarX]

The movie is set in 1963 and I'm already convinced that this is either Abe or his father. Too excited for this movie and another Hellboy would be great.

[@Quadsmile]

I'm in love with the shape of Water

[@PatricioVertiz]

Cringy.

[@wastefill4156]

Patrick Vértiz Its cringey to say cringey in 2017.

[@reeldeal3227]

Quadsmile24 pretty cool, especially since Guillermo uses water as an analogy with love: as the most malleable and most powerful entities known.

[@nomad9699]

Year 2017 was the best year for movies not even a single movie that was nominated for best picture Oscar which I didn’t like. I’m so glad that this movie won the best picture not just because this was created so beautifully but also it breaks all that prejudices that which kind of films can win the Oscar.

[@GG-wp5do]

👍💯

[@insertnamehere2635]

It's regurgitation. Stolen ideas from other movies. Beauty and the best, splash, creature from the black lagoon.... need more? Nothing original didn't deserve any awards.

[@PraetorianHiJynx]

Looks a lot like Abe Sapien from Hellboy. The fact that this is directed by Guillermo del Toro really makes me think he is Abe.

[@theniamonae]

Praetorian HiJynx I thought so too.

[@Risenshinenfall]

Same actor, Doug Jones. He's always playing freaky creatures.

[@anator1000]

Praetorian HiJynx it's a prequel in spirit that egg and music thing is a give away in my opinion watch the people holding him be or have a similar name to bereau of paranormal research

[@sebastianosorio6919]

What if Abe is their child?

[@PraetorianHiJynx]

anator1000 Yeah the fact that he likes to eat eggs was another thing

[@supercarnitas]

Just watched it and left the theatre smiling. From the comments I've heard about this movie before going to see it and how some people didn't think it deserved best picture, I was skeptical. But man that movie had me hooked

How? Were you payed to say that, you had to have been. Its unwatchable.

Agreed.

[@11ozzielover]

Is it like his other movies? Because it seemed from the trailer that it was more fitted for Hollywood and I don’t really like that. But that could just be the trailer.

[@vinodinikarunaharan7670]

At the beginning of the trailer, I thought that the deaf girl was going to get attacked by the creature, But the best part of this trailer is the fact that it turned out to be the opposite

[@dwerg0]

she's not deaf, she's mute. can hear just fine, but just can't talk

[@bilibiliism]

I think thats the worst part. This trailer, and many trailers nowadays tell us too much before we even but the ticket. Cant they just show us the music and atmosphere but keep the story secret?

[@becc4333]

bilibiliism That's the thing though, the movie reveals JUST enough for us to know what's sort of going on, but we have no idea how it's going to progress, how it will end, what else they may have in the movie, and so forth. So many of you gremlins are so critical about trailers and movies nowadays in order to get a quick buck out of seeming like a glorified youtube critic or whatever. Enjoy something for once??? and stop being so objective, thanks👍

[@becc4333]

Where the hell did you come up with *THAT* assumption???

[@johnathonhaney8291]

Vinodini Karunaharan That how Del Toro works. In most of his films, humans are the REAL monsters.

[@FernandoVazquez-ro1nw]

For those lacking of some perspective, here it is: ! This movie is an allegory of what happens in real life! - The representation of the "worst" of society: The monster, the mute person, the gay man, the black cleaning lady, etc. The negative reaction YOU, the spectator, are having towards the relationship between the sea monster and the girl is exactly the reaction people had, and still have, towards those marginalized members of society. Crazy! Those of you who find this gross or unacceptable are a meta-projection of the theme of the movie itself.

[@HenriT85]

Fernando Vazquez nah this movie is ass

[@eiraRinmaya]

[@volcano1677]

no,it's all about a lonely white girl who can fuck any animal (dog,pig,horse)

[@aquietgirlcalledsoph739]

I love this film!! It may come across as strange but it shows how love can come in in many different forms, this is a masterpiece

[@vaw796]

Guillermo has an imagination to take fantasy and drama to another level. People make fish jokes, hey let's not forget Ariel the half human half fish, who loved a human. In Shape clearly Sally's character feels different and not seen for herself, but being mute until she connects with the water creature being held hostage by humans. Both are trapped in a way, but I'll see it to fully understand the film

[@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823]

Please note: the mermaid story is really, really old :) Way before Disney.

[@notsureiL]

We have Johnny Deep in Edward Scissorhands he wasn't human and she fell for him, Elliott became best friends with E.T.
