You will always be remembered as legends
Penguins are not supposed to drop their eggs because they will instantly freeze to death. In this case, Mumble had little exposure, which is why he was born different - unable to sing and dances instead.
Btw, those birds aren’t seagulls, but Skuas - they are large and eat penguin chicks.
Tbh, it's unknown if Mumble was born different because of the egg situation. I think it can very well be said his father believed it, but only out of his own guilt and denial that Mumble could have simply been born unique even if he wasnt dropped.
It's not clear that his egg rolling away like that is why Mumble cant sing. But thats what I love about this movie, you can take it many different ways.
Personally, I believe Mumble wasnt born different because of the egg problem. I think his father got clouded with shame and denial, and even his own religion out of his self consciousness from being judged by their society- so he believed it was all his fault that Mumble was born unable to sing.
@@alyssabullock6421 I agree with this. It can absolutely be argued that he dances simply because his father used to dance too.
I always thought that because the egg rolled, his abilities got flipped from his head to his feet 😂
@@booshkie I always assumed it was a reference to the "he was dropped on his head as a baby" saying. Since when people say "different" in such a context they usually mean disabled. Which, yeah, fits Mumble given he had to work around his lack of singing ability due to it.
It took a yrss for me to learn what a real skua was/looked like.
I don't care how many flaws I now see with the film, It will always hold a place in my heart as an iconic piece of my childhood.
This is why I ignore those "Everything wrong with this movie" videos. They want to ruin people's happiness when it comes to something they like. That's very rude and it always ticks me off. Thankfully, I never watch them, so I don't have to hear a stranger's mean opinions.
Mumble, his family and Gloria are Emperor Penguins. The creators of the movie wanted to make Mumble different than the other penguins, so other than dancing they made his appearance look different too by having him not fully shed his chick feathers.
The small little penguins, The Amigós they called, are Adelie Penguins. The feistiest ones.
Lovelace is either a Rockhopper, Macaroni or Fiordland penguing causs of his yellow feathers on top of his eys.
The seal that is chasing Mumble is a Leopard Seal. A ferocious predator in the seal family
Happy Feet was my very first Drive-In movie experience and I enjoyed it a lot! The animation that seems very photorealistic had me in awe. The soundtrack is absolutely great, it’s enough to get me moving and grooving to the beat, especially with the “Boogie Wonderland” song. The characters are lively and entertaining, which I appreciate as well. Definitely one of my favorites Warner Bros. films at the end of the day.🙂
Fun killer whale fact
They play with their food before they actually eat it
Like how cats toy with mice/lizards before eating them
Especially if it's a mother teaching her baby/younger whale how to hunt
Which is what this looked like
It's like they're the a-holes of the ocean, they even mess with humans, and not in a friendly way like dolphins. Despite all that, though, they're still my favorite animal.
13:46 Mumble and his clan are Emperor Penguins (same kind as in "March of the Penguins"), and the small ones are Adele ("uh-dell-ee") Penguins. (Bonus: Lovelace is a Rockhopper) First time I saw this movie I could recognize the Adele's and Lovelace thanks to the Don Bluth film "The Pebble and the Penguin"- it's kind of based on the Adele mating ritual.
24:46 Don't worry about that; this is Antarctica, and polar bears only live in the northern parts of the world. Orcas and leopard seals are the biggest predators penguins have to worry about down there.
25:02 You're probably thinking of "March of the Penguins". It's narrated by Morgan Freeman.
The names of the areas give it away: Arctic means bears and Antarctic means without bears.
Orcas are notorious for playing with their prey. This is a tactic they often use to stun and injure their prey while it's still alive. Killer whales often hunt at very high speeds, so sometimes it’s easier to stun the prey before biting into it. Another reason could be that it’s not easy for orcas to open their mouths when swimming so quickly.
LOL I do feel like the people fighting over whether to fish where the penguins hunt was kind of realistic based on the documentary you were talking about which is called ‘March of the Penguins’ because I remember how that doc really got a lot of people talking about overfishing and how it affects the marine population and things so Happy Feet sort of overdramatized that situation. Also, I think it’s funny that most people forget the scale of how large emperor penguins are because the movie is mostly just with the penguins but they get to be over 4 feet tall and even their babies are huge so it’s funny whenever you see an emperor penguin next to a human because they’re basically almost our height so seeing people hold a 2 foot fluffy baby penguin is always so jarring to me haha
I love this movie. It is about overfishing and the plight of animals that depend on those fish. Steve Irwin voiced one of the elephant seals but if you can find the cut scenes there is one where he voices a seagull and you can totally tell it's him.
And on the DVD there is a message about sustainable fishing to be sure there is enough to go around before the movie.
Mumble and Gloria are meant to be also having others who care about him is just really amazing and a penguin who dances with his feet is really entertaining which makes the movie awesome
Fun fact: Orcas are like cats in the sense they play with their food for fun.
Robin Williams voices both Ramon and Lovelace. That's why they sound similar. Happy feet 2 was the last animated film he was in. Before his death.
This movie was the birth of my love for nature and the animals, and my eco friendly lifestyle
u mentioned motion capture, and ur right. a lot of the dancing scenes were actually motion capture !
Kiler whales are known as surplus killers, which means they kill for reasons other than food, aswell as food. Sometimes they snag an animal just to toss it around until its dead and then they leave them. So that one scene is fairly accurate
15:17 This reminds me of a Roller Coaster Ride at a Disney Carnival 😂 That is a Fall of Dooom!!
I watched this movie for the first time in my early 20s, and I absolutely love it! It has good music, dance, and actions. My favorite part is the message about parenting. Although I don't have kids (not planning on having any), but the message about supporting your kids and don't make them feel unappreciated or outcast really tuck my heartstrings . I'm glad Hugh Jackman penguin came around and accepted his son, even encouraged him to dance when the humans arrived. I haven't watched the second one yet because sequels aren't usually my favorite, but I might give it a chance in the future.
THIS WAS MY MOVIE RECOMMENDATION :D
I’m so excited to watch this ❤️
This along with the sequel and March of the Penguins we’re my movies I would watch over and over again until finally one day I lost interest.
The winner for best animation feature since 2007 at 79th Academy Awards
This movie made me so happy as a kid, i remember always choosing it whenever my mom asked what i wanted to watch.
There aren't polar bears (or any land predators for that matter) in Antarctica. The "hawks" were Skuas and are the main predators of penguin eggs and chicks. Leopard seals and orcas hunt them in the sea. Elephant seals don't usually eat penguins but they will engage in forced mating with them, which usually results in the penguins suffocating.
OMG I am so dying to see your reaction to Happy Feet 2. Especially on Erik's opera song. JV don't even mute it man! That song Erick sings is so deep and very beautiful
Did he say "Peng-wings'?!! 😂😂😂🤣 Benedict Cumberbatch come get your boy!
OMG HAPPY FEET WAS MY CHILDHOOD
I mean it’s highly plausible that an animal species that develops a communication style like dance would be elevated in overall intelligence. It requires pattern recognition and mathematics for rhythm. Penguins aren’t a threat to us but if they communicated with us through dancing we would at least reconsider our effects on their ecosystem
This movie was more about education and conservation. That's one reason why it feels so different. Mumble looks different because he kept his juvenile/baby feathers while others his age lost theirs and grew their adult feathers. The characters wouldn't encounter a Polar bear because they're in Antarctica while Polar bears live near the North Pole. :-) Killer whales often "play" with their food... Or injure their prey for their offspring to learn how to hunt and kill... That's what I figured was happening in that scene. Steve Irwin's character was a seagull/skua who taught Mumble about a whale he came across while he was swimming towards the human world, but his scene was cut.
I’d absolutely love a reaction to any nature documentary but March of the Penguins is definitely top-tier and Morgan Freeman only makes it so much better.
I agree, this movie is epic as hell. I rented it a few times growing up, which if you are old enough to have done that, you know that's high praise, picking the same movie again and again instead of something new. Bizarrely enough, despite it being very explicitly a musical, that's not at all what I remembered about it, and I was kind of shocked re watching as a grown up realizing there could be such a huge gap in my own memory.
Again, I saw it many, many times as a kid, but the thing that kept bringing me back was the adventure, the spookiness of how they portrayed humans being like aliens to the penguins, how a cago ship was like a spaceship, and how we only got a good look at one of them very near the end, that girl behind the glass, who had a bit of a forehead, and with the lighting, and the way her hair was done, looked a little otherworldly to me. That stuff and the feeling I got when I first saw it really left a lasting impression on me.
This movie is great, and even after seeing it with new eyes and new appreciation as an adult, I still thought the second one looked dumb, and I didn't see it for years and years. Turns out, Happy Feet 2 is just as good, maybe even better. Who would have thought? Thank god for George Miller. This movie is so much like Mad Max. I re watched Happy Feet after being amazed by Fury Road, I wanted to see what else that director had done. I'm sure he put a lot of what he'd learned working in animation to good use in Fury Road, and I can hear a lot of that biblical, Mad Max dialogue in Happy Feet. George is a wordsmith with a versatile, but nonetheless particular voice.
Next time I would suggest Surfs Up. It has a really solid theme and message with some really awesome and unique execution.
And despite having penguins, it’s no Happy Feet rip off. It has a completely different plot and it’s a better movie in general don’t @ me.
Killer Whales likes to play with their food, before eating them
THANK YOU FOR THIS JV much love to you I already know this gonna be another amazing reaction another one of my favorite movies 💪🏾
R.i.P Britney Murphy and Steve Irwin and even Robin Williams ☹️ 🌻
ive loved this movie ever since i was a kid. i re watched both movies recently and couldn't stop singing. the second film is by far my favorite.
I love this movie so much. Seen it a million times but I hadn't in a long time, like a decade and then I watched it again recently and had your same reaction to the end. Like no way we as 'aliens' struggling to fix climate change can reach a consensus about some 'flightless birds at the bottom of the world'. Not in 2006, not now! The music and visuals are still amazing. Top notch.
about the killer whale scene, i believe killer whales like to throw around and torture their prey before they eat them but someone correct me if im wrong!
grew up watching it and rip the actor who played gloria and also robbin and steve
i was just about to comment on it but i see it below. the orcas didnt kill cause they where using them as play toys. orcas and stuff would legit slap around penguins like balls to each other like its nothing for fun and then just leave them be.
I love this movie. I loved the songs as well.The humans were over fishing not drilling for oil. You were right about the religion aspect. R.I.P Brittany Murphy and Robin Williams. You should do the second one.
Happy Feet is definitely unorthodox in their storytelling! Lol. It’s a great movie though. I’d definitely be up for a documentary if that ever gets a win. 🙂
P.S. I also have mixed feelings about the Middle-earth series - I’m a huge LOTR fan but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t worried about them taking liberties. Guess we’ll find out! 🤔
I love love love Happy Feet, it's one of my absolute favorite movies
As a Latino we could never be mad at Williams
Thanks so much this is one of my childhood movies
If i understood correctly, mumbo looks different from the others due to a birth defect from the egg dropping (kept his baby feather instead of growing adult feathers) and is probably why he dances instead of sings.
Yeah dropping the eggs exposes them to cold and can damage the chicks in real life so that makes sense
March of the Penguins is the documentary you were trying to remember the name of,it along with Happy Feet were my favorite movies when I was little.
Orca actually DO play with their prey before consuming it. It's kinda like a celebration for a successful hunt. The moral of the movie is that humans need to be mindful that we aren't the only ones who live off the bounty of the world. Also, that seal more in the begining was a leopard seal. They are a predator species and DO hunt penguins.
You would be surprised that Hugh Jackman is Memphis, and I know Hugh is a Bangin singer.
Hugh Jackman does a lot of stage musicals as well. They actually spoof this in "Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb."
i believe the documentary you're thinking of is March of the Penguins! also i've always loved this movie. i never found it weird, i could instantly tell it was about humans relatiom to disrupting animal life and food chains. the penguins dance to GET humans attention so they could try to figure out what was causing them to act so differently.
There are no polar bears where penguins live. Penguins are found in the southern hemisphere. Polar bears are found in the Arctic. Theses animals would never meet.
For those who don’t know if a penguin drops their egg, the baby will die. so mumble is lucky to only have a singing impairment.
YAY, i love this movie!! It's got alot of deep implications/metaphors, I wish more people watched it
FYI George Miller, the director, is the same guy who did all the Mad Max movies lmao he did the sequel to Happy Feet as well I think
Southern lights. Penguins are in Antarctica. No polar bears, those are in the north.
I grew up watching this movie and I’ve always loved the songs and the theme behind it. Now that I have grown I kinda see why people would think it’s a little strange, but I absolutely love this movie and will always watch no matter how old I get 😊
Happy feet yes i love it
Orcas are known for playing whenever they have the chance, there's a chance that these were just hunting for sport and had decided to have a little fun with it.
There are 17 species of penguins. Magellanic penguins are found from Antarctica to some parts of South America (ex: Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Adelie, Chinstrap, Gentoo, Macaroni, Humboldt, Galopagos, Southern Rockhopper, Yellow-eyed, Fjordland, Fairy (little blue penguin) the smallest species, Snares, African, Erect-crested Penguin, Royal, White flippered, King Penguin, and Emperor, the largest.
Penguin live a harsh life. One parent leaves for the sea to find food while the other parent stays with the chick. When the parent, typically, the female, returns, she calls for her chick and feeds it. The fathers then leave to feed. This process can take days ( 2 to three weeks). Emperor penguins typically lay one egg, in the event two eggs are laid, one will not survive because food is scarce and so effort is focused on the first one to hatch. Also , due to harsh weather conditions, eggs may crack, freeze or predated by skuas, leopard seals or other predators. Chick's eventually gather in "nursery groups", when old enough, they will hunt for their own food.
I think the penguin documentary you’re taking about is March of The Penguins and I’d actually be interested in watching the reaction to that
Penguins are so majestic looking, and penguins are my favorite animal. The music is this movie is very amazing.
Hugh Jackman isn't in A Star is Born (I checked his film credits before commenting), that's Bradley Cooper, but Jackman is in Les Miserables :)
I love and was obsessed with this movie growing up, still in my top 5 favorites though
The real popular documentary wildlife movie in 2005 is March Of The Penguins.
For me, I like it for the dancing, story of being your true self and the songs. It's what got me into dancing and music.
I'm sure when the humans said no fishing, means overfishing.
that seal is called a leopard seal or something like that
The documentary is ‘March of the Penguins’ I think it’s worth watching.
my favourite movie growing up, loved singing with the song haha.
love happy feet thanks for reacting to it!!
I remember going to this movie when it came out in theaters.
At the time I was around five and I had been sick, the only thing I remember is seeing the baby penguins then being woken up, I had fallen asleep through the whole movie.
I got so excited ! Instead of saying " I'm gonna go watch J V Galactic. " I said " I'm gonna go watch Guardians of The Galaxy ! " 😆🤣🤣
Bro the amigos are hilarious
This movie is a masterpiece. Better than it should've been. The music definitely helps. Showing the negative side of blind religion and prejudice and how it can affect a society and turn out beneficial. Was a fun movie. And 2nd one isn't nearly as good, but worth watching.
There's only one thing better than Robin Williams, and that's two Robin Williams.
Penguins hold a special place with me because my Dad researched little/fairy penguins on Montague Island off the Southeast coast of Australia. Although I wasn't born until a few years later.
I have a couple of movies I think you should watch: Ford v Ferrari, The Great Escape, Speed Racer and Lemony Snicket's: a Series of Unfortunate Events. Hope to see these on your channel in the future.
P.S. I just subscribed.
I love happy feet, I used to watch all the time as I kid, to the point the disc was all scratched up and I couldn't really see properly anymore lol.
love all of your reactions
Lol I love how you say Penguins as Peng-Wings. 🤣
Dam u almost included the I can trick myself part when Ramon jumps of the cliff
The Emperor Penguin documentary is called "March of the Penguins" I think
I believe Hugh Jackman is actually pretty big in musicals (I think the one you thought of is The greatest Showman) someone correct me if I'm wrong but I think he have been on Broadway and won Toney Awords for roles shows?
March of the Penguins is the one most ppl know as far as penguin documentaries go :)
Steve Irwin is in the deleted scene and I love Robin William as the small penguin
Leopard seals and orcas are the big bad predators of the Antarctica. North Pole/Arctic it’s more orcas, polar bears, and I think one or two sharks can get near but probably just barely.
28:58 orcas love to play with their food. As you said they are intelligent therefore they can get bored easier than other species. Take huskies or house cats well take all cats, high intelligence needs to be kept busy and playing with their food teaches them at the same time keeps boredom away.
I love this movie ever since it came out. The music, Robin Williams, and the animation, all captured my heart. Also around this time I had watched Practical Magic and knowing Nicole Kidman was in this made me happy.
It was years after I saw it that I learnt Steve Irwin was in it and both the elephant seal scene and seagull.
Sadly the ending we have yet to make a reality. I understand we can’t stop all fishing, it just would be nice if more people cared for species other than their own and tried to help them. The sequel is great they got Pink to voice Gloria and little Erik super cute.
lmao, JV. Orchids are flowers, orcas are whales.
Did you know there is a sequel to Happy Feet.
I was 5 when I saw this movie!🐧
I know that documentary movie you're talking about but can't put my finger on the name of it. I think it was called "March of the Penguins." They did a parody movie of it too which I didn't care for at all.
However, when I took Marine Biology in high school, I did binge watch the entire Planet Earth documentary series for marine life. Very fascinating.
I had no idea Brittany Murphy (RIP) was the voice of Gloria.
March of The Penguins is the documentary.
Happy Feet TWO Next please !
This movie does hit different after growing up with undiagnosed ADHD and autism
First of all, it wasn’t A Star Is Born that Hugh Jackman starred in recently, it was actually The Greatest Showman. If you have time to react that musical sometime in the somewhat near future, I would highly recommend it for it’s great original music, and great storyline overall.
Second, the only thing that I did did weird about this movie was the whole deal with the penguin god. Not sure it fit with the more realistic tone of this film, you know? But whatever! Aside from that, I loved Happy Feet for it’s message, the creative storyline, the tap dancing (I took tap dancing classes in high school, so maybe that makes this film hit home with me even more), and how Happy Feet tackles mature subjects at times (i.e. when Mumble tells Gloria that he’s not up for a serious relationship, likely due to him wanting to protect her from harm). Anyway, seeing as Happy Feet, Cars, and Monster House were nominated for Best Animated Feature, I’m glad that Happy Fert won that Oscar in the end. Well, great reaction once again!
and yes to you watching a lot of animal documentaries movies i actually own one that follows a polar bear family and a walrus family hope you can watch it someday
For another great Elijah Wood voice role, check out Over The Garden Wall.
Thanks for the video. I enjoyed it.
Ants and penguins live in the colony 🐧🐜
You should watch the second one. Also, there's another penguin movie called "Surf's Up" that I think you should try.
There are no polar bears in Antarctica…
i like how they added that the orcas/killer whales were playing with them. they got the mannerisms down to a t. because in real life, orcas DO play with their food/taunt it before eating, solely just to entertain themselves..
Yeah, they are such good hunters that they can basically eat what they want whenever they want, so they tend to play with their food a lot like a well fed house cat
Actually it's to break their prey's bones and make them easier to eat, lmao
@@BiolizardBoils it’s also been proven that they enjoy taunting their prey. because there are other animals who hunt the same prey, but not in the way orcas do. orcas are somewhat sinister in the way they choose to break down their prey
Sounds like cats 😂
Also the scene where the female Adelies are responding to the Amigos’ flirting like prostitutes! Believe it or not, female Adelie penguins will trade sex for stones for their nest! So crazy
