Sea Beasts did well financially and critically, but it still feels kinda underrated. In my opinion, that world is so well realized, imaginative, and beautiful, watching it gave me the same feeling I had watching How to Train Your Dragon.
Great fucking movie.
I thought it was kind of forgettable and reminded me too much of how to train your dragon. It was just okay but definitely better than Wish
I think it's because it more or less a carbon copy of HTTYD
If I’m being honest, that’s how I felt when watching it too. Except the first HTTYD movie worked, because there really wasn’t that much of a villain to be begin with. With the Sea Beast, I feel like them, needing to add a villain into the movie felt very hacked on, as we never even see what caused such motivations to begin with.
It’s httyd but in water and I do like it because I like httyd
Eh, the young girl character was difficult for me to root for because of her personality... I remember not buying her moral voice of reason speech near the end of the movie that the director tried to shoehorn in because she had been such an immature rude annoyance throughout the whole rest of the film, so it felt super out of character and unrealistic for me. As for the rest of the film I thought it was...meh. Not as revolutionary and as interesting as id have liked it to be. It didn't feel as climactic as it wanted to be. But I agree with others in saying its miles better than wish.
I mean I think anything can beat Disney at this point not gotta lie
Agreed
Without a Doubt
the Great Mighty Poo from Conker's Bad Fur Day had a better villain song than King Magnifico from Wish
@@dracodracarys2339 "I am the great mighty poo and I'm going to throw my shit at you" describes what Disney is doing
Not sure why you’re treating other studios. Disney has always had a history of good and bad movies, just like other studios
One thing I love about The Sea Beast is that Red is allowed to remain wild.
Like, movies and shows such as How To Train Your Dragon, or The Croods, or Pokemon all have the theme of "these giant creatures aren't evil monsters, they're just misunderstood and peaceful beings!" But then...they make pets and companions of them and show all species as able to be domesticated and tamed, and it's honestly kind of weird how pop culture sees the opposite of "destructive evil monster" as "tamable trainable pet material" with very little middle ground?
I like the vibe Red gave in this movie. She's not a murderous monster, just an innocent animal living her life, but at the same time, she is not a pet, or even a friend. She is a wild creature who at most tolerates the protagonists, who have no control over her when she decides to retaliate against a percieved threat. And at the end she doesn't become a loyal companion like Toothless does, but rather returns to the wild with no further contact: an untamable, free creature best appreciated from a respectful distance as all wild animals should be.
Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron ❤
You mean "Godzilla?" When Godzilla got over his "metaphor for nuclear bombs" era, he became "destructive force of nature you can only weather & pray it destroys the greater of 2 evils."
Yeah but in the 3rd dragon movie, it kind of proves that they weren't in fact all meant to be trained. Toothless wanted his own life and family, and hiccup had to realize it, and let him be the wild animal he was.
Is it weird that I tought of Life of Pi when I read this? Because that's exactly the point that comes across at the end when the tiger walks away from Pi, god I love that movie
@@franciscol3510life of pi is a GOATED MOVIE MAN
No, what's depressing is knowing the animators try their hardest and either know it's going to be a flop, or believe that something is going to change that this is the one to bring them out of the hole of criticism.
The main problem isn't the animators, but instead the Disney CORPORATION.
There is definitely still talent within the animation studio. Encanto is the perfect example of that
I mean I haven’t seen anyone point the blame at the animators. It’s the writers and directors who should be blamed for these terrible movies. But ultimately, it’s still the fault of the CEOS, board of directors, and the investors…
the corpo execs aren't 100 percent to blame. it's the studio heads at Disney Animation and Pixar are at fault.
For the sake of not editing the comment, wow that's a lot of likes
Kinda like the Shazam director, he said he knew Shazam 2 was gonna flop hard and was giving his condolences to the movie even before it premiered!
The director, Chris Williams, is also slated to direct a sequel to The Sea Beast and an untitled film described as “original fantasy in the tradition of Lord of the Rings, but with the attitude of The Princess Bride”, and I’m honestly kinda psyched for them
FINALLY someone is talking about this movie!! This shit is so slept on it’s not even funny, the story is amazing, it’s nothing crazy grand but it’s something extraordinarily important, and the characters are great, I especially love that it’s pirates and that they even made their own sea shanties for the movie, I highly recommend you guys all watch it it’s an underrated gem
I loved the quiet scenes where they just let the environments breathe. The first scene inside Red’s nostril and the scene in the big shell on the island where Masey sits alone next to a lantern and she is reevaluating her worldviews, there were no annoying quips, no self mocking jokes, minimal sound track and just the vibe of the scene
The irony is that those moments were what made old Disney films really great
The ability to let the animation, expression, music or all three
To carry The scene and story development with no dialogue.
Man
The people complaining about movies being similar to other movies really don't understand the "Holy shit! Two cakes!" meme
Like, yes, please give me more scary beast turns out to be nice things PLEASE
Fr 😭 That and also people's expectations are way too high. Feels like something has to just be perfect for them :/
TY! People are looking for the new big thing that's the most original unique thing all the time. Which makes people hate it as soon as a concept reminds them of something else. Like... oh, squid game and hunger games both have games where people die... Or Evil monster is misunderstood so maybe we just need to learn to understand it, which a lot of kids movies do these days @@T_E_G
probably just because of our "creative environment" being flooded with remakes and sequels no one really asked for. when we're always seeing "the same things all the time" then we become very tired of seeing similar themes and characters is all. thats just why there needs to be better marketing budgets for projects that are really worth their salt; so that they can speak over disney's nuisance money and get the attention and praise they deserve!
Even if they are kind of the same movie, they can still be Good
Not to mention the animation was just as amazing as the storytelling
it has the best looking waves for me at least that animation looked so good disney can never
Disney animation has gotten so… round? The characters in this movie were way more interesting to look at than the generic 3D animation style Disney has adapted to
@@kiokuch.1602they did with Encanto and Raya
@@wendydanielle3476Encanto and Raya looked great
I hated the end message. “you can be a hero and still be wrong” is a great way to tiptoe around holding people accountable.
I can't believe this is the same director who directed Bolt and Big Hero 6.
But those movies were good.
Bolt and Big Hero 6 are pretty good movies! (Honestly Bolt critizes having kid actors *cough* Disney channel *cough* so well)
He also was the co-director of Moana and that could explains why everything that is sea-related is so well done
To be honest, you kind of can tell through the animation style.
@@osmanyousif7849no you can’t
This film's message about revisionist history is probably the best I've ever seen from an animated story. Then the ship being called the Inevitable and how that twists itself into multiple themes and becomes an ironic symbol in the end. God this movie is so good
I absolutely loved Sea beast, especially the relationship between the two mains and the sea explorer/pirate vibe.
But just like Pig said the monsters were a bit too basic and cutesy. Wish they went for something actually scary, I mean the crab was really good looking and actually kinda scary the rest of the monsters are just "blobs" with teeth. Don't get me wrong they're good but they also could have been better.
I like the cute monsters, but I think Red specifically should have been scarier. Like, with all this hype about how she’s the most dangerous thing in the sea, you’d think she’d look a little more dangerous, even the concept art looks better than what we got. The lack of detail makes her look smaller than she is and it’s hard to take her seriously
The monster called the brickleback that’s killed in the beginning seemed far more threatening than Red with all the tentacles/arms and tough plating and super sharp looking teeth. Like it could have easily taken down Red with all the advantages it had. Red is smooth and rounded with plain fins and a flatter face.
They’re not “fantasy pirates” they’re whalers, the movie is about whaling.
Love the hidden gems! Heres a few I discovered:
-Kid Cosmic
-Kipo and The Legend of The Wonderbeasts
-The One
All on Netflix
Also Blue Eye Samurai
Kipo is so hype
I wouldn’t call Kipo much of a “hidden” gem, lol. That show absolutely blew up when it came out.
I would! I haven't seen many reactions to it or talk about it@@ata9419
I’m so glad this movie is getting some attention, super underrated film
Finally someone says it. It definitely needs more of a fandom
Have you seen Klaus? It's been getting a little more attention with Wish's failure but its still a super slept on movie in my opinion
I fucking loved Klaus it’s so underrated
@@Lil_Crip543Klaus is seriously so good.
I will never understand the whole "I don't understand something and that's scary so let's kill it" part of humanity. Why can't it just be "I don't understand this and it's scary, so let's just leave it alone and mind our business"? Why is that not an option.
bc humans have a natural curiosity, even to our own detriment, if we didn't have this, we wouldn't be where we are today, both literally location wise and technology/knowledge wise
@@clubardi still doesn't explain or excuse violence towards the unknown. It is possible to explore curiosities without killing them. Maybe I should change it to "I don't understand this and it's scary, so I'll go slow and take my time to get to know it properly". Better?
@@Scriptkitty-sd8dp it does explain violence against the unknown, often times ppl are hostile to the unknown, sometimes it's better to kill and ask later than ask first, whether or not you agree with this, doesn't change that is how it's been throughout history, for better or for worse, while I agree it's better to slow down and try to understand if capable, it's just not always possible
@@clubardi that is the point of my original question. I'm asking why that is. "Because it's easier" may be the actual answer, but doesn't make it right. I asked why are people ignorant and violent, and your answer is because they're ignorant and violent. Doesn't really help.
@@Scriptkitty-sd8dp Its a bit different from "Because it is easier". I'd say that the reason that people are violent towards the unknown is because there's a survival instinct as well as a desire for creating order out of chaos. That what we know we can tame, make it fit into our ideal of the world. That what will not fit can be removed. Seldom people actually leave their environment alone, and when they do it is because the environment is too dangerous to just go out. The unknown? That is a danger to the Order. You can't fit it into the Order, and more often than not the Unknown is going to kill you. Our civilizations got to the point where we are because of the numerous deaths that braved the unknown, that tried new things and paid for it. So... rather than trying to utilize it and risk getting offed, the cautious people will instead try to kill it. If they don't, at worst the unknown might very well come back and kill them anyway. In the best case scenario it eats away at people because it could to exactly that anyway in the future.
The Sea Beast was truly a fantastic animated and a bit of an underrated gem on Netflix. Still deserves more recognition despite being a bit similar to How to Train your Dragon. ⛵️🐍
I love the Sea Beast. Truly a hidden gem. The animation is beautiful, the characters are likable and well-written, the music, the use of color-theory, the narrative, chef’s kiss. Beautiful.
Not just that but the water physics are INSANE
I’m getting into 3D animation for a future project, and holy crap dude.
Dude as an army brat, Maisy’s character arc hit waaaay too close to home. Seeing her trying to frame her parents death as this epic sacrifice and then learning it was all to line the pockets of the ruling class HURTS.
I’m surprised you haven’t seen this hidden gem. I really enjoyed this movie giving how to train your dragon vibes. But it did set itself apart that makes it feel it own thing
I love the animation style of this. Reminds me of a Sea of Thieves trailer
I do indeed love talking about disneys downfall
It's depressing
maybe 2d animation would save them
I absolutely LOVED Sea Beasts when I first watched it and it's now a movie I like to have in the background because 1) I know the plot so I don't have to focus my brain too much on it, and 2) it's that good of a movie to rewatch and have going in the background for me.
One of the other details in terms of Crow losing everything is that he also lost his ship too; Red fell on top of and crushed it when she was trying to get back up, so not only did he lose his crew and his adoptive son, he also lost the ship that he had for years.
There's also the interesting bit that when Red grabbed Maisie during the scuffle she knew how gentle she needed to be without crushing Maisie's foot, because lets face it, Red could've easily done that if this was her first time interacting with people in a more positive way. It makes you wonder if she had a positive interaction with another person before, or else how would she know what's the right amount of force to not hurt Maisie?
It would be so cool if we cool get a sequel that dives into Red’s past a little more or if we could get a sequel about some hidden underwater trench beasts. The movie has sparked so many ideas in me, I may need to start a few Wattpad stories for them.
Sea beasta haunts my thalassophobia but it is so good and real feeling I can't stop rewatching it
I'M GLAD YOU SHOWED THE TERRIFYING OCEAN PART. WHEN SHE SINKS INTO THE OCEAN??? COLD SWEATS
To be honest, I didn't like the movie, but it HAD potential. I think it was missing something, and it was going way too fast in the pacing. I think that it would have been better as a series, because not only would we have seen more positive interactions with different beasts, but also thicken the overall plot and ending. Also, it would have permitted the people to be more empathic to the characters and their development in the relationship. It would help the plot twist that, for me, was a bit out of nowhere (and the fact that the girl was able to convince everyone in about 15 minutes or so). So yeah, still better than wish tho...
Yeah the ending felt rushed, she really didn't explain why what they said were lies, she just kinda proclaims that they're liars and everyone agrees. I wouldn't say the plot twist was out of nowhere, it was alluded to when they were riding Red.
I enjoyed the movie a lot, but still agree that this movie, overall, would have functioned better if it either a longer movie, or a series. The potential is definitely there, but certain elements could have been explored more thoroughly or expressed with more sentiment, had the story had more time to do so.
The movie feels aimed at 11yr olds, and if it had aimed at 13yr olds, it would have been a better movie.
Not to mention, it really had the whole cliché similar to avatar where it’s “Humans=bad, nature=good.”. At least with Princess Mononoke and the Planet of the Apes reboot series, they were able to make their messages without making anyone a straight up villain.
But also, I do agree that they should’ve cut Masie’s character out, and let the focus be on Jacob, as he is more of the active character from the story. It also makes more sense, for Jacob to save Crow from the Red Bluster, since the two have more of a relationship than Maisie and Crow.
I don't even have thalassophobia, but that "thalassophobia moment" really freaked me out.
as someone with thalassophobia, i can confirm that was terrifying and I looked away bc just the thought of it, is enough to scare me
It was extremely well done. That moment really made me feel the tension and fear Maisie and Jacob possibly felt, it’s just…woah
I agree with everything you said I love how people rarely pay attention to the meaning like to most people When the witch said that Thrre like *He lost nothing* Nuh uh he lost it all His Sanity,His Thinking and Jacob (IK Jacob's Not dead) And It's realistic that the Sea Best's Have basic designs sureee there big giant Beast's But are still animals
(Also Red's a girl Ik you Prob don't care XD)
So glad your finally talking about this movie!!! I loved it so much watching it with my sister's last year :)
I think the disconnect with the witch scene is that people don't see him losing everything as a consequence of going to the witch. Like yes he did lose everything but considering the direction of the story, I think they're assuming that it would've happened regardless (and assuming that him and his son/crew would be able to make peace and he could retire with what limbs he has left).
Sea Beast is such a great film!
I really appreciate how "mature" and intense it's allowed to be. Like, you literally have a grown man threatening to shoot a child with a gun! And then later that child nearly gets blown up by a canon and she starts bleeding out! This movie is wild, but it's very underrated
Agreed! They took so many risks and made them work…it’s so insanely good! I’d love to see a sequel that dives (haha, see what I did there) into more tribes of sea beasts or something along those lines. It’s such a brilliant film.
Crow was the coolest character in my opinion, that scene with the witch felt like something from Shakespeare.
I really like the digital camera work in the clips of the movie. Definitely going to go watch it now.
The only problem with sea beast imo is the middle of the plot and it ties in the movie- where the witch came in. THERE WAS SO MUCH POTENTIAL and the animation of the moving tattoos were awesome.
I was not expecting you to drop a video on this amazing movie, but I’m happy you did. I love The Sea Beast.
Red: **throws crab**
Crab: LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET IS BLASTING OFF AGAINNNNN
I watched Sea Beast one day on vacation at Long Beach, Washington and late at night, I was watching some Netflix. I passed by this movie while checking out my options and from the surface I thought the movie would either be a fun, but lackluster movie, or a complete clone of Httyd with zero heart. But after watching the whole thing, both of those opinions were devalued completely. I lost those opinions in the first 10 minutes of the movie. The art, the characters, the story, all way better than I honestly thought they would be. It was a genuinely amazing movie, and I'm glad I came past it.
Also from recent reports, I heard it's getting a sequel. So I am extremely excited to see that.
I don’t read much philosophy, probs bc 90% of my generation don’t touch books. But ur vids open up so many perspectives that are normally hidden or turned around by media, propaganda, beliefs or social constructs ect. And u do it in a very entertaining way by using movies and an energetic/engaging personality that it lets me enjoy my spare time without making me feel like I’m half studying.
TLDR: Love the vids, keep it up❤
Sorry for the lingo, I type like I text, it’s a utube comment, let it go.
PLEASE review Sinbad Legend of the Seven Seas! Not only are the center of the movie about pirates, its also 2d animated and severly underrated
I'm SO GLAD you talked about this movie. It pleasantly surprised me and quickly became one of my favorites.
Finally someone mentions about this movie! Because The Sea Beast is actually a really good movie
Captain Crow reminds me of part of the famous saying. "Careful you wrestle with monsters lest you yourself become one." Or something like that. Iykyk
3:53 I actually felt like Red’s design was smart, as it pulled on actual natural designs of large ocean animals (whales, etc). Especially since the movie feels like it’s riffing on Moby Dick, so the Whale motif works
it looks like a lizard dude. how is that a ocean animal?
Honestly I found the theme of ‘living a great life and dying a great death’ really interesting (considering it’s a freaking kid’s movie). Nowhere in HTTYD you’ll see a deconstruction of the cult of the hero and glorification of sacrifice.
I remember stumbling upon this movie on Netflix last year. I watched it, expecting something pretty mediocre or even outright bad, and was pleasantly surprised. I was bummed that no one really talked about it, so I’m glad you did
I really did like this movie, very well done movie. My only real complaint is that the ending kind of came out of nowhere, and I feel like it could have had better build up for it. We didn't need the witch part in the movie, it was really weird. It would have been more interesting if Crow had pretended to sympathize with Maisie about the beasts and take advantage of her bond with red, so that he could lure red into a trap. Only at the end would he self reflect and realize his wrong doings. Idk I'm not sure what would have made the ending better, but it just kind of fell flat compared to the rest of the movie
Streaming doesn't seem to have the same restrictions which is so nice to see! Happy holidays!
My favorite part of this video are the 3 and a half minute of intro followed by 2 of sponsorship
I really wanted to like this movie more but too much of it felt like rehashed scenes of Treasure Planet and HTTYD for me to properly get invested, particularly so towards the end. The beginning however is absolutely phenomenal and feels the most well developed (I wish Red had more design motifs taken from historical monsters like the Brickleback got to, though the scene of her descending was perfect)
oh i'd loooooove to see a video full of recommendations from you! especially animations!
5:57 "...and the soon to be captain 𝖏𝖆𝖈𝖔𝖇 𝖍𝖔𝖑𝖑𝖆𝖓𝖉"
I've never even heard of this movie, but I absolutely love the message. It's something that should resonate with everyone. Definitely going to try to see it.
I watched this movie last year with my boyfriend and we genuinely loved it! It slows down a bit much in the last parts but overall one of the best animated movies in recent time! ✨
Ever see that Netflix “Pluto”? It’s astroboy as seen as a murder mystery
I recently watched this kovie and really lived it, and was sad it wasn't being talked about more. I think the best thing about the story is that it completely went against my expectations, I even cried a bit at the end. I felt for all the major characters, and by the end I cried.
Again, really sad to see such gems of animation not properly advertised, they could be such classics. Lost Ollie is a perfect example of the same thing (a miniseries, a little dark for kids but it had me sobbing by the end, really gorgeous show.)
Also the joke, before the eggs hatched. that had me on the floor.
You know at first glance at the thumbnail I thought that the red monster was a middle finger for a moment. 😅
If you like pirate shows/movies
'Black sails' is a Fantastic recommendation
It's a TV Show and it's one of the most fleshed out Pirate world ever shown on TV
I loved this movie on Netflix! I watched it to see if the hype around it was worthy of it at the time.
That ending made me double check if I was subscribed even though know I am bc I got a notification for this video.
FINALLY someone talks about this movie… criminally unknown and wonderfully done. I want to do a video of it so,time myself agh
I love that Sea Shanty 2 from OSRS plays on repeat in the background
Wooo a really great video, I loved it!
That SM64 sound bite made me laugh far harder than it should have lmao. 10/10 vid
Freaking loved Sea Beast!
What a good movie about quest, duty, love and responsibility
I loved this movie. I've watched it twice - I was always a sucker for HTTYD (books and movies) and it gave me similar vibes. I loved the designs of the sea creatures.
I think I’ve watched it about 7 times now. I loved the designs, and I’d love to see a fandom arise with some cool deeper creature designs.
only thing I didn't like was how the main 'monster' (I forget her name) was just kinda bland and had basically no styling
Red
Man I love sea beast-the animation and message was beautiful
What streaming service is it on?

Netflix @@1BiChristianF
Netflix my guy 👍@@1BiChristianF
Your video made me rewatch The Sea Beast, and it's just SUCH a good film! It takes so many risks that Disney (and other studios, for that matter) are just too scared to take.
I agree the problem is that when it comes to other studios like Disney and illumination entertainment is that are afraid to take risks with their movies like how often do you see those studios make a PG-13 anime the movie The answer is zero
Sea Beast is such a good movie
speaking of gems on netflix please do a video on blue eye samurai it’s so underrated :)
This sounds so good, I am gonna watch now!!
Good to see Sea Beast get some love! It’s a very underrated movie in my opinion with some cool character designs and a very important (I’ll be it on the nose) message. It’s a shame a lot of people dismissed it when it first came out as a HTTYD ripoff.
I’ve watched sea beast a bunch of times. And I LOVE IT! One of my favorite scenes is when, well the “sea beasts” attack each other and the ships. But what not.. That jellyfish scene is nice tho
I absolutely love this movie. I first watched it while I was on bed rest after surgery, it was so beautiful. The animation, the story, and especially the characters, like I cried at the end lol
I really liked the movie up till the end- I felt the ending fell absolutely flat.
I have a movie recommendation for you, it’s not animated, but it is dark. And British! It’s called Threads, and it’s a movie about Nuclear Warfare and surviving it. It is absolutely terrifying, and it’s very dark and grim. I think it’s right up your alley.
Can you please make a vid on Blue Eye Samurai?
More people need to watch it.
Only critic I got of this movie is the red queen or what's her face looks too.. plushie like?
She's way too smooth and round and whatnot for it to really sell the whole her being the biggest threat out there plus next to all the other monsters she sticks out due to the smoothness and roundness
The other monsters are very.. well monster looking
Yeah she's absolutely massive but I'd have loved if they made her sharper, more scarred and just overall more cool and less cutesy
I really enjoyed sea beast when it came out the ocean scene genuinely scared me 😭
I watched this when it came out! I adore it and have rewatched it many times. I also love wish dragon.
So many people slept on this film! I am glad that it is being discussed more
That one scene when fell in the water and saw red staring at them was terrifying 😳
Nice to see someone else notice this pleasant surprise of a movie
i honestly adore sea beast. ive watched it like 10 times and its become my comfort movie. 10/10, better than the past 5 disney movies
The Sea Beast felt half-baked with its themes but I'd rewatch it over WISH
when the movie came out i loved it, but every reviewer seemed to dog on it calling plan and boring and a rip off of how to train your dragon.
i remember seeing this movie a while ago ! i loved it so much im happy you saw it and enjoyed it :)
I don't know if it's me but i feel like there is some big Monster Hunter inspiration in some parts, like the damn poison Dragonator they use at some point. Neat
Also fun fact, I' live in the south of France and the aesthetic of the castle in the royal capital is very similar of the aesthetic of the Oceanografic Museum of Monte-Carlo.
Like the marine creature as gargoyles, the golden shells and corals on clothes etc...
I watched this movie quite some time ago not knowing what it was, and I was extremely happy to have seen such a great movie made by a studio that’s not Disney or Dreamworks. Very well done!
I loved this film. It actually felt amazing to watch. As opposed to the last 6 years of disney
Gave the vid a like as soon as I heard that sick Sea Shanty 2 tune
Man, I know everyone has done it, but I'm curious what you think of Godzilla Minus One
I think it would be interesting to see your take on the Avatar movies
Watched it, loved it and will now always love it
I found Crow really similiar to Dutch Van Der Linde from the Red Dead Redemption franchise
I peak that Blood of Zeus at the beginning😚 such a good show❤
I remember when this channel was about magic tutorials 😂
This movie is so good man! I couldn’t be happier that you are talking about it.
