Watching *JOJO RABBIT* for the first time !!

[@Anomondaris]

Just imagine Taika pitching this movie to studios😂

[@wadumin]

Lmao

[@agffans5725]

I agree, but remember that Taika Waititi is part Jewish himself and it was his mother, Robin Cohen who first told him that he should think about adapting the novel “Caging Skies” for the big screen. Scarlett Johansson is also part Jewish, her father is from Denmark and she has an American mother of Polish-Jewish ancestry, so she has dual Danish-American citizenship. The Polish-Jewish side of her family really suffered horribly during the war, while the Danish Jews never even wore the yellow star identification mark, unlike in the rest of occupied Europe, and eventually the Danes also saved all their Jews from the extermination camps.

[@chocolate-teapot]

They made this movie on the condition that he played Hitler

[@ThePersephoneDiggen]

@@agffans5725 From my understanding, he's fully Jewish, but if his dad is Jewish, so, Taika himself isn't Jewish, he needs to be born to a Jewish mom to be Jewish himself.

[@XENONEOMORPH1979]

@@agffans5725 ww1 the jews in germany were exempt from paying taxes so they were getting rich while the Germans were poor. American banks and the bush family supported Hitler ,gave millions and oil including coal now you know why as the jews bought factories and retail shops.

[@MrKINSM]

Jesse Owens was a black American track star who won gold medals at the 1936 German Olympics, to the defiance of Hitler's myth of Aryan supremacy.

[@wadumin]

Thanks for the info ❤

[@rechtewahrer]

You mean to the defiance of WASP superiority?

[@ibairementeria]

⁠@@rechtewahrer yeah probably not really to defiance to something he didn’t even knew about xd he just went to the olympics there without any further context lol

@@wadumin lots of stories from the 1936 berlin Olympics. All caught on film and some on tv.

[@Waterford1992]

Ironic that he said he was treated with more respect in Germany than the USA and was even snubbed by president Roosevelt.

[@bioniccorndog]

This movie is in my top movies of all time. Comedy has long been forgotten in serious film discussions and this one REALLY used comedy to push the emotional roller coaster even further. All the serious parts felt even more serious and heartwrenching bc there was the genuine comedy and cuteness to contrast with.

[@BSyph57]

Best movie made in the last 5 years. Captain K discovered his Mom and that’s why he rushed to the house to head off the Gestapo. He represents the older members of the Military from WW1 who were devoted to Germany but not on board with the Hitler shift.

[@davidcopple8071]

This movie is meant to depict world war two as seen and understood by a ten year old German boy's perspective. His unrealistic imagery of Hitler is just how an idolizing little boy might imagine Hitler to be . And the progression from the sweetly silly sort of tone to the movie then transitioning to an incrementally darker and darker tone culminating in the death of his mother, is meant to represent JoJo's dawning awareness of the realities of war , As well as his awakening to its true horrors and his inevitable disillusionment of his innocent and idealistic view of Adolf Hitler .

[@splurg123]

Exactly. People like to assume they are immune to indoctrination. People miss the point of this movie because it's goofy at times but that's meant to reflect how normalized and even celebrated absolutely reprehensible ethics can become in a society. It's a warning.

[@chrisby30]

Great reaction. One of the many things I like about this movie is the more friendly JoJo gets with Elsa, the nastier Hitler gets

[@wadumin]

Trueeee, loved it. Thanks for watching ❤

09:06 - I'm not sure if you caught it, but she was being very sarcastic and dry and flippant. She wasn't really saying she gives permission.

[@t0dd000]

The book burning scene at the youth camp can be seen throughout the United States right now. Our ultra conservative party is a big fan of book burning. And hence, most of us are a bit terrified of the possibilities here.

[@virgiliustancu9293]

Leftists destroy history and burn books like nobody.😂😂😂

[@jerryfick613]

I would ask you to consider that both parties have factions that want to banish ideas, people, and books that they disagree with. The most dangerous thing to America is the false dichotomy of left vs right. Both parties have fascist elements fear to control people.

[@mmmab1]

If you want to react to another great Taika Waititi movie, you two need to react to "The Hunt For the Wilderpeople." It's not nearly as dark as this one, but very funny and heartfelt.

[@wawonasteve]

Another great comedy/drama ww2 movie is Life is beautiful. It is one of my favorite films of all time. Highly recommended it.

[@tjrune3432]

Unsure if anyone mentioned, but yes, the black and white film at the beginning was quite real. Similarly, I believe Imaginary Hitler was actually slipping into speeches made by Hitler himself while berating Jojo.

[@rainydaydreamawy]

Should have won the Oscar

[@angelalam5949]

wow what a movie, i loved the dark humor and the way they depicted the way the horror seeps into casual life. As someone very interested in ww2, i need to go watch this immediately.

[@nino6664]

If you actually read the book the movie is based on it's called "Caging Skies" jojo did keep Elsa locked away and assaulted her

[@jrepka01]

A pretty dark book. He is older, about 16-17. His parents left, knowing he would turn them in. Elsa doesn't find out that the allies won the war until several years later. I much prefer Taika's adaptation.

I just face palmed myself when you asked who Jesse Owens is.

[@gabrielegenota1480]

he’s not exactly part of the zeitgeist these days

[@rx7dude2006]

The Berlin Olympics officially opened on August 1, 1936. Eighteen African American athletes competed. Jesse Owens was the most successful athlete-of any race. Between August 3 and August 9, 22-year-old Owens won gold medals in the long jump, the 100- and 200-meter dashes, and the 4 x 100-meter relay. He became the first American track and field athlete to win four gold medals at a single Olympic Games. Jesse Owens (centre) standing on the winners' podium after receiving the gold medal for the running broad jump (long jump) at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. AP After the Olympics ended, stories claiming that Owens had been “snubbed” by Hitler circulated widely. As the most common variant of the story goes, after Owens won his first medal, Hitler, not wanting to acknowledge a non-Aryan athlete’s ability, left the stadium.

I loved this film. But there are many more insightful films that examine the Holocaust without irony (which is not to say without humour). For example: Agnieszka Holland's "Europa, Europa" (1990) and "In Darkness" (2011), "The Book Thief" (2013), "The Boy in Striped Pajamas" (2008) and "Sophie's Choice" (1982). However, some of these films are partially or fully subtitled so I gather most English-speaking reactors can't be bothered...

Great. Movie but with respect yelling out. America is so disrespectful to those allies who fought the Nazis longer ( UK Canada Australia NZ) and Russia who actually won the war they are the ones who beat them the rest of the Allies were a sideshow. We don't like Russia but facts are facts

[@Amrod97]

The Russians may have lost the most soldiers, but to say they won the war is a lie. It was the Western Front that pounded most of the Luftwaffe. It was the Americans and British who destroyed almost the entire war economy for the Germans, which gave the Soviets the opportunity to move at all. Not to mention the Leand Lease which allowed the Soviets to maintain production. Without it, Germany would have won against the USSR.

[@migmit]

@@Amrod97It's just what Russians get taught in schools. A lot of them actually believe America still owes them for lend-lease. This guy pretends to not like Russia, but he most likely never been anywhere else.
