      @@ryabchik3349 it has nothing to do with Dante having ate from the altar, he would've and could've crossed that bridge at any point; as the poster mentioned, the Xolo is a breed of dog made to guide the dead to paradise if they were judged as being worthy.

      My biggest gripe for this movie was that they portrayed Dante as a goofy dumb dog, but Xolos in mythology are beautiful, noble, wise dogs, so it kinda felt reductive in this movie. Still love it though.

      @@charlie7mason You can still have a creative choice while still being loyal to a prewritten character. Think Disney's Hercules. They didn't completely write the opposite of his Greek counterpart, but they still gave him new character flaws that made sense, like being naive and clumsy. On the other hand, Dante is the complete opposite of his mythological counterpart. If you like Dante, that is perfectly fine. This is just my opinion.

    I’m of Hispanic heritage and mama Coco was a splitting image of my grandmother. She passed away shortly after this movie came out and I haven’t been able to finish it since she passed. When abuelita places mama Coco’s picture on the ofrenda, I immediately hyperventilate-cry. I always turn it off between there and the closing song.

    There's two hidden depths to this film. 1 is Miguel's never performed for anyone (in the land of the living/reality) so his first true performance was playing Remember Me to Coco. Which leads into the 2nd depth. Coco hasn't heard the song since her father sang it to her even though the song was famous throughout the land because music was banned in their household. Music truly has an element of remembrance in people with Dementia and Alzheimer's which was perfect for the climax of the story. The writers of this knew what they were doing both culturally and medically.

    When the censors saw this movie, and how it handles family/ancestry as well as the spirits of the dead, it made them cry tears of joy and the film passed through completely untouched.

    My mom's side of the family is Hispanic and while there were bits and pieces of the culture I remember taking part in, it was really after watching Coco that I started making an effort to participate. Every year since my family and I watched it, I've been in charge of setting up the ofrenda in our living room and I've tried to make it better and more accurate every year. Placing the correct items on the correct days when I could and looking for more pictures of family and friends who have passed, asking my grandparent if there's anyone else they've like put there.
    Last year, my mom was super busy and stressed, and often spent more time in the office than at home. The day she walked in the house after I set up the ofrenda, she stopped in the living room, saw it, dropped her stuff and hugged me as she cried. I could literally feel the stress fall away from her, if only for a while. That's a memory I will cherish forever and one I likely wouldn't have ever experience if not for this movie.

As a breed of dog called a Xoloitzquintli (zo-low-eats-queent-lee), he has a role of being a spirit guide through the afterlife.*

    Remember this: the first big animated movie was Snow White, it was meant to be seen by everyone and you who saw it the most at the time? Adults.
    Adults went to see it in theatres and were absolutely captivated by it and moved by it. The New York times wrote an article about talking about how amazing it was.

    I love this movie so much because Great Grandma Coco reminds me of my own paternal grandmother "Mo". Throughout my tween and early teen years I had grown very close to my grandma, riding my bike 20+ miles round-trip to visit her weekly to wash her dishes, mow her yard and above all keep her company. (She was a widow by then.) I had even moved in with her temporarily during various summers to work with my cousins on her farm. The summer between my junior and senior year of high school, (11th / 12th grade), she was diagnosed with cancer. Due to its advanced stage, treatment would only extend her life by months, but she rejected treatment because it only made her feel ill and she wanted to live out her remaining days at home in familiar surroundings, not hospitals. During that final summer I moved in to be her caregiver (having just turned 17). I brought my guitar to her bedside and played for her during those months. And during her final week, when she was in a coma, I would play my guitar for her, and I could swear that I saw signs of relief in her face, even a slight smile knowing I was still with her.

    This movie always hits home for me because my great grandma had Alzheimer’s and she eventually wound up not knowing who we were and over time it was the most heartbreaking thing to go through knowing that as much as you love them, as many memories you’ve made with them over the years they have fewer and fewer memories of you the more time passes.
    But however often she forgot we always managed to bring back the great grandma we knew growing up, if it was for a few minutes or a few hours we made every second count.
    I cry every time I watch this movie for that reason alone, it’s so true to how much someone in their later years can fade away and lose their battle with Alzheimer’s.
    It’s an great movie with a powerful message that we all sometimes forget, never take the loved ones in your life for granted, spend time with them, love and support them through thick and thin because one day they will have smelled their last flower, said their last goodbye, given their last kiss and said their last I love you.
    Life is precious and we shouldn’t take a second of it for granted.

    8:55 Dante can see Miguel, not because animals can see ghosts, but because he is a Xoloitzcuintli. 9:20 It's also why he's able to cross the bridge into the land of the dead. As Frida states in the movie, the mighty Xolo dog is the 'guider of wandering spirits' helping the dead cross over to Mictlán, the afterlife, depending if they were judged as worthy and that's where the Xolo would come in. Xoloitzcuintli is the combination of Xolotl (God of the Dead) and itzcuintli (Aztec word for dog). Xolotl created the Xolo dog as a way to judge the dead's character, how they treated the dog and such, and that's what led to the dead's judgement as to whether or not they deserved to continue on into paradise.

    This movie broke me. One of my best, and oldest, friend's Mother had Alzheimer's. It is a horrible disease that robs both the person who has it and their family. The family has to watch as the memories and personality of someone they love disappear, and the victim loses their memories of their family and loved ones. I was with her when her Mother forgot her for the first time and asked who she was.
    The ending, where Coco remembers her Papa and daughter for at least a few minutes would have been an immense blessing to them. It allowed, at least, one last memory of her when she was who she used to be. And it allowed her daughter to see that her Mother still knew her and loved her. My friend never got that.

The Devil keeps his promise and gives him the golden violin and Johnny invites The Devil to rematch him if he wants to.

    Marco was also part of a soft rock band called The Bukis. They recently did a couple of sold-out reunion tours here in the States. I actually grew up listening to some of their songs as well.
    In Guatemala, the Day of the Dead is celebrated in a different manner. If you go to the towns of Sumpango and Santiago in the Sacatepequez department during the Day of the Dead, you’ll see families flying these colorful kites shaped like giant stop signs. The common Spanish word for kite is “cometa” which also means comet, but these special kites are called “barriletes.” Just like the marigolds, they also serve as a means to communicate with family and friends who have passed on. Relatives of mine have flown their own barriletes over the years and they continue doing so to this day.

    Just FYI reason why Dante was able to cross is because his a Xolochitle. A dog considered to be sacred and acted as a bridge for both the spirit and living world. Well according to Aztec mythology and stories.

    As a second gen Mexican American I know for a fact that the only part of mexican culture that Pixar played a little fast and loose with was the alebrijes. See in reality, alebrijes were these immensely popular art pieces created by Pedro Linares. They don't have anything to do with the mexican conception of the afterlife or dia de muertos but Pixar just mixed them in because they thought it would give the movie some artistic flair and give Dante his little character arc of becoming an alebrije. Aside from that its an immaculate and accurate depiction of Mexican culture making it my favorite Pixar film. The generational trauma plot just made me feel so damn seen.

    100% my favorite modern Pixar movie. this movie came out half a decade since i went overseas for work. i haven't been able to visit home when this came out and it really made me miss my family. i have since made it a point to visit any chance i can get, working hard to earn my vacation time.

    The 3 deaths is a part of Mexican culture. The first death is when the physical body dies. The second is when the physical body is no longer visible (burial, cremation). The third death is when no one is left that remembers you.

    My grandmother was from Mexico, and when I first saw this movie back in 2017, Coco reminded me so much of her (she sadly had dementia as well). But after having 2 daughters since, this movie gets to me in a different way. I can't listen to "Remember Me" without tearing up. It makes me think of my daughters, and I can't fathom the idea of never seeing them again. It just makes me hold them closer.

    Xolos (Xoloscuincles) are and indigenous Mexican race of bald dogs, that in the past Aztec's belived they guided the souls of the dead to their final resting place. (that changed over the form you died, but for the mayority was a place called the Michtlan). Alebrijes are made of combining animals. Pepita is a jaguar or panther with bull horns an eagle wings, the odd one before they get the guitar is a mix of frog and rabbit. the hole they throw Miguel y Hector is a Cenote (caves with water) very common on Yucatan peninsula.

    This movie makes me cry every time. - This movie is a parallel to my story. The day my ex-wife alienated me from my 4 and a half year-old daughter….I died inside. I haven’t seen her since; she’s now 22 years old.
    (Voice breaking): I’m sure she has forgotten me. “I am running out of time.”

    It's hard not to love music these days, especially in a time when a lot of us are really depressed. Kind of hits home, because over the years, I've lost family members, including my father, which was the hardest loss of any loss I've been through in my life.

    First time I watched it, the second death scene really got to me and then all the other stuff later at the end. It just made me think, unless I was well known (famous) or had a big legacy, eventually it will be as though I never existed at all once all my family passes on. It really depressed me and just made me sit and think since I have a really small family. I believe I watched it when I was like 34 the first time.
