WTF DID WE JUST WATCH?! | MIDSOMMAR (2019) REACTION | *FIRST TIME WATCHING* | POOR DANI!

[@KayJayxoxox]

It's so refreshing to see people actually paying full attention while also providing commentary and entertainment. This is the first reaction of yours that I've come across, and I just have to say, I really enjoy just how many small details and sneaky connections you guys picked up on during the movie. The amount of reactions I've seen (specifically for Midsommar) where people are just watching the movie and taking everything at face value/questioning who or why when they've already been given the answers is crazy. Definitely going to watch your other reactions from now on!

[@MooreNotLessReactions]

@kayjayxoxox thank you so much for watching and for giving us such a high compliment! We really try to not only have fun/ but also legitimately discuss the films / shows that we are watching. 🍿📺

Although Connie and Simon would have been sacrificed no matter what, they disrespected the cult during the cliff ceremony.

[@lofistreet8233]

the director said that all of them would die regardless of what they did. their plan was to kill them all from the start.

[@downbeatdialga1341]

@@lofistreet8233was it intentional that they allowed Dani to live? Like, during the dance competition, did the other 2 remaining girls faint, and Dani won by chance? Or did they lose on purpose, so Dani would win and be crowned May Queen by default? This is all for me to ask, did that always intend for Dani to win? Was she exempt from all of them dying, because she was the most respectful of the Hårga’s culture?

[@pamschneider2568]

I just stumbled upon your page because I’ve a huge fan of Midsommar and the fact that you’re watching it for the first time now is so wonderful so thank you and you guys are adorable! ‘This is day one?! I’m Out!’😂

[@billymuellerTikTok]

I love how your dog just randomly shows up and starts growling a the bear in the cage

[@CarlosRios-vz9hr]

The mirroring between the scene of Dani weeping with Christian at the start and Dani weeping with all the woman towards the end are crazy!!! Dani finally felt “held”

[@MrBlink622]

Great reaction! I love how you noticed how mark got killed and referred back to the skin the fool game. The director intentionally introduced the name of that game as foreshadowing for what would unfortunately happen to their friend mark. And the court jester hat on his corpse confirmed he was the fool. The director leaves these sort of tidbits in as foreshadowing just like the bear in the painting at the beginning.

[@Herissan]

I think Simon and Connie were brought as sacrifices because Ingemar (Pelle's Brother) had a crush on Connie as he stated at the beginning (he brought her on a date), but then Connie started dating Simon and they got engaged. So they're not awful people like on Dani's side but I believe Ingemar was just spiteful. Loved your reaction!

[@jeangreco9561]

Great review !!! The best I’ve seen hands down ! You guys had me laughing out loud a ton, especially at the later scenes lol !! 😂 I love this film & it was super fun to watch it again along with you two !! Keep up the great work & bravo !! ❤

[@KJT4888]

Aw I like you two I will give you a subscribe. I think this is my favorite reaction to Midsommar so far and I have seen a bunch. I LOVE this movie. Such a beautiful film. The ending is beautiful because now she found a new family that will sympathize and support her. I felt so bad for her throughout the whole movie so seeing her smile and be happy in the end filled me with joy 🥰 Really happy I found a new react channel with cool people.

[@ButterflyDeana33]

Yeah but it’s also sad too because once she hits that age 72 she’s going to have to jump Off of a cliff too if she’s chosen to be a mentor or something in the end so it’s not a good fate for her really and truly

[@KJT4888]

@@ButterflyDeana33 Personally I did not find any sadness in the ending but I do get what you're saying. That does make it sad when you consider it. I just also really enjoyed seeing her happy in the end. I guess it's all about perspective. If the character is happy in her decision and fine with that fate then I am not one to judge.

[@gavinmcmahon235]

I was a May Monarch. We do actually have to dance but we normally use ribbons on the Maypole lol

[@davidgreen6490]

OMG! You guys reaction to the sex scene was absolutely hilarious!!!

[@colly3333]

Enjoyed your reactions, especially your wheezing laughs, which made me crack up with you each time.

[@Andrei-nz6tc]

The cult brought Dani close to the house where Christian was being raped by the cultists, so that the sounds they made could catch her attention. It has been made clear that the cultists mimic strong emotions, as we saw in the suicide ritual, so I think Dani realised the moment she heard the moaning that Christian was a tool for something specific. Then that girl who said: "It's not for us" used the reverse psychology to enhance her desire to discover what's actually happening. As such Dani goes there, and without any context to rely on, she thinks Christian is having sex with her. But that was their plan the whole time: to make Dani hate the others and love the cult. Notice how at the last meal, when she notices Christian, a girl suddenly comes and distracts her attention with the fish. Nice details :))

[@Doglover79586]

One of the craziest movies I’ve seen in a long time

[@bluewhale2000]

I love how you guys picked up on the main theme that so many people miss - Dani's need for support and to have her feelings validated, something that was only provided by the cult. You might have noticed by now that family is one of the most common themes in Ari Aster's movies... Also, Talk to Me was not directed by him (though I understand why you would think that, the style is similar) but he does have another movie called Beau Is Afraid, which is amazing and didn't get nearly enough attention. Would highly recommend checking it out, it's an even wilder and crazier ride than Midsommar and Hereditary combined.

[@jaysreacts]

My daughter showed me this few weeks back, never heard of it, by the end i was like WTF did i just watch 😅...been looking for things i missed on KZbin, soooo many things i discovered 😳, one that sticks out in my mind, is when Dani is getting carried the camera pans out, so you see the forest but if you pausr that shot....you actually see a face in the bushes showing one of her family member(i think her mum or sister), which was crazy. Also there's a sign that Dani was always gonna be the May queen because in the very beginning, on her parents night light table, there's a picture of Dani with a flower crowning her picture frame, symbolisng what was gonna happen. There are others, but remember them. But great reaction though, generally enjoyed it 👏

[@billymuellerTikTok]

37:41 I think you have one of Pavlov's dogs - it stood up at attention when they rang the bell

[@JaimeCard]

So incredibly here for this 😂

[@wozing]

"My parents burned up in a fire." - Pele Talk to Me isn't Ari Aster; rather, it's a KZbin duo known as RakaRaka. It's their debut film, and afaik their first horror content. The Witch is Robert Eggers. He and Ari Aster had smash hits with their respective debut films (The Witch and Hereditary). There's a podcast with the two of them praising each other for their works, because they both admire each other. From wikipedia: "His films are noted for their folkloric and mythological elements, as well as his thorough efforts to ensure historical authenticity." When he "A New England Folktale," he means it. And if you ever get to his second film, The Lighthouse, you'll get to see just how phenomenal an actor Robert Pattinson can be.

[@VampEdits]

This is my favorite Midsommar reaction so far 🌞😌

[@MooreNotLessReactions]

@@VampEdits Thank you so much! We appreciate you!

[@FreddieCuellar-p2l]

LOL. I was so incredibly uncomfortable watching this with other people in the theatre. I busted out laughing when you guys cringed and laughed because I knew exactly what you were watching! LOL. I love your reactions! Please do the Joan Crawford movie Strait Jacket and Whatever happened to Baby Jane.

[@billymuellerTikTok]

1:33:18 I think it's EVERY year, not every 90 years... they have a May Queen every year and Pelle even said his parents died in a fire (they probably were the 2 volunteers that year - if it were 90 years ago, Pelle would be well over 72 years old)... Pelle & Ingemar (and everyone else who is sent out in the world to bring people) probably lie and TELL foreigners it's "once every 90 years" to entice them to come THAT year (not to have an excuse to put it off for next year) knowing no-one is going to live to leave & warn others

[@Roseforthethorns]

You’re catching so many of the clues and details that took me half a dozen views to fully see. I’m starting to understand how much I identify with Dani (especially with feeling I have to isolate in order to express intense emotions)

[@Roseforthethorns]

1:03:54 your reactions to the lunch and remembering the tapestry had me cackling. I still remember seeing this in theaters and how overwhelmed I was.

[@Roseforthethorns]

1:05:57 community theory is that Pelle swung the hammer

[@Roseforthethorns]

Part of why Jack Reynor (Christian) signed on to the film was because of this sequence 1:22:16 and the one immediately following. He found it fascinating to have the male lead in the position usually reserved for female characters in horror. And you’re right. They did basically date r*pe drug him.

[@Roseforthethorns]

1:28:32 Simon’s punishment is called a “blood eagle” - and yep, he was still alive when Christian went into the coop.

[@Roseforthethorns]

1:32:06 so. Christian sucks. He seriously sucks. But I will die on the hill that he didn’t deserve this. They likely cut off his legs at the knees to get him in the bear as well. Also, all the sharp cuts that had you both grossed out so much is to help show that the Härga lie. They always lie, and they do it in full daylight. I think that’s part of what terrifies me about this movie.

[@brad481]

Great reaction! love how much you include in your edits as i know that's difficult on youtube, so good job! also 69th like lets go

[@TerrieProuty]

Y'all are hilarious!

[@alexfleming266]

That’s Connie’s boyfriend they cut open his back and tore out his lungs 🫁 and ripped out his eyes 👀 he’s still alive 🫁👀😈🩸😱🤮☠🔪🤫

[@billymuellerTikTok]

yes, Simon... they gave him a Blood eagle

[@josefranco8860]

I think this is the best reaction I've seen, cuz just like u i wanted to kill the boyfriend myself, i really felt bad for her for most of the movie, y'all earned i new sub, i found u with the "late night with the devil" reaction but y'all got me with this one, love from the dominican rebuplic ❤

[@EightHellGates]

loved the reaction guyssss

[@pandorawombat]

You two are adorable. Would you consider reacting to the 2022 movie The Menu (horror satire, satirizes A24 films especially)? It's amazing and has an all star cast.

[@MooreNotLessReactions]

@@pandorawombat Thank you! It’s a film I have already seen, but if Shawna has not seen it, I’d be happy to revisit this film 🎥

[@FireNooodles]

Was hoping you'd see this movie after watching Hereditary! Loved your reaction! If you guys haven't seen it already, can you react to The Witch? It's another A24 film so you might enjoy it haha

[@longshanks90]

I know someone who went to midsomer and minus the weird cult shit it's pretty accurate

[@Sarkastik2007]

Talk to me is good in my opinion but The Witch wil blow your mind. I hope you react to these. I've honestly never laughed so much watching a reaction to a horror movie like yours today. And I'm talking belly laughing a couple times. Midsommar is something else...

[@zXSleeZy]

Great reaction! I figure if you want to react or just watch it on your spare time, you could listen to Ofdrykkja Hårgalåten It's a swedish folksong from 1700s (and what the midsommar dance in the movie was based around) Which you'll also see if you watch the official video about it, it's pretty nice visual video to it. Most other stuff i wanted to say most others have already commented so i figure i'll leave this tidbit above instead. :) Edit: And if you do listen to it on your own spare time, since you don't react to music. Let me know whatcha both think about it :) I personally like the song very much.

[@Hey_Jamie]

I hate being the 499th like. I’m really upset that I’m not the 500th hahaha. 499 feels so…. Unfinished!

[@MooreNotLessReactions]

@@Hey_Jamie BE BOTH 🤣

[@pedrohenriqueamorimsantos2419]

Loved loved loved your reactions, both to this and Hereditary! You guys are so much fun to watch, I laughed so much with you while watching this, and I love your commentary! By the way, Talk To Me is a great movie, but it's not Ari Aster's, but you should definitely give it a watch!! Ari's third movie is called "Beau Is Afraid". It didn't hit the mark with a lot of people, but I personally loved it and I think it's definitely worth a react! :3

[@DavidAntrobus]

I just discovered your channel, but if you ever react to older classic movies, check out _The Wicker Man_ , another sunlit folk horror that must have influenced _Midsommar_ (I don't know that for sure, but it's hard to believe that Ari Aster isn't steeped in horror history). Florence Pugh as Dani in this film is incredible: such a lovely person, yet so lost and abandoned by pretty much everyone.

[@WittyKittyRitzy]

Idk why I keep thinking of Jennifer Aniston but as a blonde when I see you guys

Bro on the right sounds like T.J. Miller 💯

[@MooreNotLessReactions]

1:27:55 1:28:02 this is called as blood eagle during the viking era vikings used to do this thing as a sacrifice for norse gods idk if you have watched there's a scene like this in the vikings series

[@Zoulz666]

Cutest lil' doggo 😍

[@tritiumH3]

Christian (and the American's) sin was willful ignorance. They knew something was wrong with Simon and Connie, but they said and did nothing. Not their problem. And when Josh stole the book and "ran off," hey I don't know him. And when what's-his-face peed on the sacred tree, sorry, I didn't know that it was special, it's just a tree!

I loved you alls reaction and Also yes to me this reminds me of children of the corn also especially the weird sex scene stuff cause on the orginal children of the corn they had the kids doing that this was even sicker though knowing Christian is a grown man and the girl was only 15 in the movie very unsettling
