    One thing that I want to point out is that Puss does not possess "bravery" in the beginning of the movie; in a word, he is not brave but has bravado. This could also be interpreted as "foolhardiness." People generally think that positive qualities like bravery are only contrasted by cowardice, but in reality they are often the middle of two extremes, and Puss is a great example. At the beginning, he's foolhardy, but his brush with Death pushes him into the other extreme of cowardice. It's only when he accepts that he might die but is willing to fight for his life that he truly exhibits courage. It's paradoxical, but it's accurate to life.

    I loved Jack Horner as a villain. He’s straight up evil and the movie revels in it. It even gives a reason for why he’s hateful of magic and magical creatures. He couldn’t compete with them ever since he was a child. It was “their fault” that he didn’t get the adoration he deserved. All of it was shown to us within minutes and it’s great.

    Fun fact: The director of this movie is Joel Crawford. He's a veteran at DreamWorks, having worked on the Kung Fu panda trilogy as a lead animator, and this is his second directing debut; the first being Croods 2, which I heard was very good. He's two for two with this movie and I'm really happy. Puss N Boots the Last Wish is in my top five movies last year. It was shockingly good, and I took this to see with my nieces and nephews because they wanted to see a movie, and I didn't want to sit for three hours in Avatar 2, and boy I'm glad I did. It's amazing how competent this movie is from a writing perspective. Characters that actually feel real in they have easy-to-understand motivations and aren't idiots. Plus, the Macguffin plot is utilized well here(this film is gorgeously animated). The villains in this movie were great. The wolf might be one of my new favorite DreamWorks villains.
    It's a movie that had a message it wanted to tell for both kids and adults(best kids movies) and also treated the audience with respect with regards to their intelligence. I really hope that KFP 4 and Shrek 5 are this good, because, between this and The Bad Guys(another great DreamWorks movie of this year), DreamWorks film-wise might be going through a renaissance. In a time where Disney animation-wise is faltering no less. Ironic.

      _Croods 2_ was alright; like this one, it was more cartoonishly animated than its predecessor. I still prefer _Croods_ 1 though, 2 doesn't really know what it wants its plot to be while 1 was rock solid and super underrated.

    Excalibur still being in the stone is my favorite gag in this movie. It properly represents Jack Horner’s character: he is not worthy of the sword, but he’ll brute-force it to work for him anyway. And I appreciate that the movie doesn’t water the joke down by having another character stop and spell it out for the audience - like a lot of shows do these days.

    So I just want to copy and paste a comment I saw from another video (@uncannysnake as the original) that kind of blew my mind, on a video showing the 8 tolls of the bell in the giant fight.
    "Also:
    He goes through 7 walls when being thrown against the jack horner sign by the giant (yes that goofy scene actually had PURPOSE, he should have died on each impact)
    7 impact lines when the bell hits the giant
    7 people (and one animal) being captured and rescued by the giant
    DEATH 8
    8 glasses in the bar, with him being careless with the ninth
    chandelier with 8 candles goes out
    bell rings 8 times in the bar
    8 marks on the weapon of death (well that one is not hidden but its worth mentioning)
    The death whistle has 8 notes (that is also why the melody seems kinda incomplete, apart from the whole "you will not hear the last note when he takes you away" they were going for)
    The numerology of this movie is insane and I bet I also missed a lot of stuff even, for example I found nothing in the danceparty scene before but I am sure stuff is there too"

    I believe it was Blake Synder who said, every movie is allowed one "mircale", one moment of serendipity. The first convenient coincidence is what gives you a story to tell. The second convenient coincidence is when people start saying they don't buy it.
    It is convenient that the map was arriving shortly after his eighth death, but no other factor was coincidence. Every other factor was given firm causality. The reason Kitty didn't try until tonight is because tonight is when the map was getting delivered to Jack, which Goldi and the bears exposited in the conversation Puss overheard. The only thing anyone involved knew was that the map would be arriving at Jack's factory that night, so they all showed up to steal it at the time of arrival.

    1:41:20 Kitty does these space-and-time defying stunts all the time, in this movie and also the first one, mostly when she steals stuff. It was totally possible she snuck inside the chest when Horner was talking with these goons.
    For example she switches up the map Puss holds (while running away from Jack Horners place) for one of his boots (while he's running!!) or when she switches Perrito for a pinecone when the Bears and Goldi looked away for a second.
    You might question now, well how she opened that lock? She has no claws unlike Puss, after all. Well, the first movie also established that she opens locks like that with her sword.

    At around 1:35:00, you guys chat about the scene where Jack Horner is getting the map from the sisters and how it's a contrivance that these characters have converged here. I don't think there is a major contrivance here. We know the Sisters retrieved the map, and we can tell from their mannerisms that they were clearly bad at keeping details about this under wraps due to their eagerness to talk about all the murders they did, or perhaps the murders led to the criminal underworld becoming aware the sisters have the map. This leads to Goldi knowing about the map, which leads to Goldi trying to hire Kitty Softpaws (an extremely gifted thief) to retrieve the map. When hiring Kitty falls through (bc she wants the map for herself), Goldi tries to hire Puss instead which leads to everyone ended up at Jack Horner's factory, where they all know it is being delivered. I fail to see the coincidence there, it all follows.
    Edit: It is mentioned later that it's a stretch that Kitty is going for the map now rather than later. Since the Sisters had to travel to get here, it could easily be that their location was unknown while people did know the map's destination.

    • @albertnonymous9759
      @albertnonymous9759 Рік тому +5

      Yeah, the transfer is often the easiest time to steal something like this, every other time it's either locked away or hidden, but if you know it's going to switch hands from the sisters to Jack at a certain time, that is a good point to strike.
      At least with movie logic. But in real life as well, a fair amount of prison breaks happen during a prisoner transfer, a good amount of robbers target transports, because they're less secure than a bank.
      They definitely could have explained it a bit more, for example if the bears plan is made clear and everyone knows it, adapting that plan for your own ends is the way to go, but it's not a big deal

For the first half of the movie Puss and Kitty call him Perro, which just means “dog”. It’s during the panic attack scene that Puss first calls him Perrito, “little dog” (making the name diminutive expresses affection in Spanish), showing that Puss has now come to trust him, and for the rest of the movie he remains Perrito.

    It infuriated me in the game stray how wrong they got it. Fell right into the uncanny valley. Couldn't watch that for more than 5 seconds and was glad I checked out some footage before buying.

    The film was just amazing. Easily my favourite of the Shrek films!
    Puss going through a character journey that, how the chat and several comments here point out, does a great job of desconstruction of the legendary and fallen heroes tropes (unlike a certain already mentioned high grossing movie franchise *cough* SW *cough*).
    Kitty is a very understandablefrom her trust issues and once you get the full picture of her reasons and motivations really workout to the relationship. I never felt she was being unreasonable or annoying in her behavior and never belitled Puss (the main hero) and had contribution to the story (she was really one of the reasons he was able to survive the fight vs Death due to her knife, which I saw people comment that it is both symbolic and complements his sword fighting style).
    My opinion of Perrito is pretty much the same from the hosts. You just cannot not love the little guy and his joyful manner!
    They really did a great job with the villains/antagonists as well. Jack was my least favourite but still well written remorseless villain; I just loved the Goldilocks and her family storyline and development, where in a less good movie their character group would be badly used and wasted, but not here; And finally Wolf/Death, who was not only the best anatagonist of the film, but also one of the best in western animation as well, and as one of the best potrayals of death in fiction (I usually prefer the the kind gentle reaper, but sometimes and like the dreaded kind; with this one one of the best I've seen) ! Props to Wagner Moura, the writting team, art direction and every other people in the production for the scene he appears.
    Thanks for the stream and the discussion. It really helps to highlight the movie and all the praise it receives is well earned!

    1:11:40 In a way you could say that Puss found it easier to run because he wasn’t living a life worthy to stay and fight for. In those flashbacks, the majority were of his legend (followed up by Kitty, his mom, and then Shrek). But now that he has a life worth living and sharing, he can face the anxiety and fear for that life.

    Regarding the whole "wish for infinite wishes" thing, I'd say there's probably a bit of a message about not being greedy in there too. Puss wasn't planning on getting infinite or double or whatever extra lives, just the 8 he wasted, and at the end when they decided they don't need the wish because they either grew, got what they wanted, or realized they've always had it, doesn't seem like they were thinking of getting something else.
    Jack Horner, on the other hand, well he basically wanted infinite wishes, because when controlling all magic, he could probably get the equivalent, if not exactly that. And it did lead to his downfall (other than... just being all-around horrible). If he was just another party competing for a measured wish like everyone else (and wasn't the most evil creature in existence), at that point they would have probably just let him have it

    This movie was everything to me: Refreshing, beautiful, entertaining, inspiring, funny, simple yet detailed, and made with passion, thought, and purpose. It reminded me that there was more to film and cinema than movies that are routinely pumped out, each one as generic as the last, being treated as a stepping stone or a throwaway project by those who make them. Films and TV seasons such as these are content for content's sake, which many, myself included, have begun to tire of. Further, these pieces of "content" attempt to bait viewers into watching their creations and pay them hard-earned money in one of the most superficial ways possible: including cameos, using famous actors, and/or using pre-existing characters. However, having the mental capacity of beans, these people have no idea what they have, or why they have it. They often cannot and do not comprehend the significance of the things that came before, or the things that they are working with. They have no passion and no creativity.
    Puss in Boots: The Last Wish is a glorious exception, and its existence and creation in a time where creativity and passion for film seem to be lacking, it's a miracle we got to see it. This film is so much fun and actually has deeper themes and ideas than the surface-level garbage some have grown accustomed to. I am overwhelmed by how fortunate I am to be alive when this film was created, and I will celebrate its triumphant existence until the day I meet Death.
    Thank you to all who made this: You are legendary.

    2:48:03 My issue though with that scene is that when Kitty reveals she didn't show up, it does cause an issue with her being so mad at him throughout the movie. It's very much a part of the live where the writers were trying to have their cake and eat it too. They wanted to try and hammer home the message of Puss loving himself, but forgot that Kitty was so vehemently upset and distrusting of him, almost specifically because of that event. So when she says she didn't even show up, her attitude retroactively in the film really should just be dismissive and disappointed, not angry and so outwardly distrusting.
    I just wish they wouldn't have added it. It's maybe my one, or at leastbiggest complaint with the movie.

      I got the feeling that she was lying about that though, so they could patch up their relationship faster. Like, she very much made it very easy on Puss to come clean, and the way she refers to Santa Caloma in that particular scene is completely different to how she's talked about it both before and after that scene.
      Like, she wouldn't have implied that Puss betrayed her if she anticipated him not turning up and didn't show as well. That's more disappointment than betrayal.

Kitty is bothered by not being able to trust Puss for nearly the whole movie, except for that singular moment, when she had just found out the guilt had been eating him alive. And when she says it, it sounds very made up on the spot. Reading it that she just wanted Puss to stop feeling guilty, is extremely reasonable.

    I think this movie has better villains than the first one (the wolf and goldie in particular), but the first took itself more seriously and took more time to make you care about the characters. This one felt kinda rushed and there were a bit too many jokes for me, the jokes would undercut too many serious moments for me and felt like padding for the writers not knowing how they wanted to move the story forward. The action was great and every time the wolf showed up it was amazing. I liked the character arc that goldilocks had, but when it comes to puss characters his realisation about how important life was at the end was good but felt rushed due to the amount of serious moments he had to remind him of that lesson either being too short or by undercut and undermined by too jokes. The animation was really good too. I kinda wished they referenced the events of the first movie more in a way cos this movie felt pretty detached from the first one. Plus it didn't seem like puss even cared about or remembered humptys death and was completely or remembered who he was. I didn't like Jack as a villain at all, he felt too goofy and the way he sacrificed his employees didn't feel that impactful cos they were killed off in such comedic ways but I liked how he collected different mythical weapons. DreamWorks version of Jiminy cricket in this movie is hilarious. I think Jack horner could've been cut out of the story to make more room for the wolf, and just have the wolf as the main looming threat of the movie. I wonder if they'll reference the three diablos in the potential third. And since they included jiminey cricket in this movie for the first time, I wonder if they'll ever start referencing more obscure fairy tales or fairy tales we haven't seen a DreamWorks spin on before like the wizard of oz. I know they set up shrek 5 at the end of this movie but I think they should leave shrek alone, and would be fine with the franchise just be continued with puss in boots or just have shrek cameo in this one. One final thing about Jack Horner is that I think that since the whole movie kinda tackles puss' obsession with maintaining his legend, Horner's character could've worked better if they made it that Jack horners character was jealous of puss' notoriety and achievements, cos I think the reason why the wolf worked so well is cos his existence and presence challenges puss in a very personality way.

    A great breakdown for a neat movie, but I gotta disagree with the praise for the reduced frame-rate in the film. In Spider-verse this was a sacrifice they had to make, to be able to afford implementing all the other visuals which made that movie so gorgeous.
    The Last Wish has amazing animation, but all of the same effects and impact in the animation can be achieved without the lowered flame-rate, which only serves to fragment the movement of the characters, undermining the otherwise dynamic animation.
    Key-frames are crucial, and can look cool by themselves, but inbetweens exist for a reason too; they give the animation that fluidity, which can enhance the effect of the hand-drawn techniques mentioned on the stream.
    Of course, lowered frame-rate can be used to great effect if it's justified in the narrative or artistically, like in the Lego Movie. In this case however, it was probably a decision made for budget reasons. Which is understandable, if it was to facilitate the details and quality of the animation we got, but it's still a flaw.
    To clarify; I don't think this is a huge issue with the movie, but it's something people tend to reference as one of the film's merits, when it's actually one of its flaws.
