The end of this, where Moana uses compassion to address the goddess's trauma instead of responding with violence, oh, man, it makes me tear up every time.
Fun fact about newborn turtles: a big thing that's always made clear is that if you're going to help them find the water, you absolutely cannot carry them there. They have to find it on their own. The scene at the beginning is essentially how Moanas journey ends up going out on the ocean. She may have been pointed in the right direction, but ultimately she had to do it on her own.
@@thechatteringclown They imprint on the sand where hatched. Oils from your skin can interfere with their imprinting process. If you grip them too hard you could break the white dot on their belly which holds three days worth of food.
@@thechatteringclowndon’t EVER do it, if you pick the turtle up it will become inspired to be a bird the rest of its life and spend its days trying to fly until one day it finally flies and crashes into an incinerator
@@thechatteringclown idk about what everyone else said LOL but from what I've heard, baby sea turtles have to build muscles to swim and them struggling to crawl to the sea helps with that
Fun fact, the chicken, Hei Hei, is voiced by the absolute legend Alan Tudyk. Classically trained actor, went to Julliard, and Disney had him voice a chicken.
Alan Tudyk has voiced something in every Disney ever since Wreck-It Ralph. Good luck charm worked till the last one The Strange World, that seems to be first huge miss in Disney since Treasure Planet (which I thought was much better than movies that came after that till Princess and Frog)
Fun fact: Moana's voice actress was 15 when filming this. So the acting and the singing from Moana was done by a fifteen year old girl. A fifteen year old girl hit those notes lol.
That's not really surprising,have you never seen 10+ year old kids having such beautiful voices? Little boys having great range since they haven't reach they're puberty
As soon as i realized that Te Kah is Te Feti, I can suddenly sense sadness and desperation in her howls and screams which, before the reveal, only sounded monstrous and otherworldly. This movie is so beautiful and definitely one of the best movies disney has to offer.
The grandma is one of my all-time favorite characters. She is so well portrayed. It is my, personal, head canon that the reason that the Grandma knew so much about the heart and the ocean was that the ocean offered her the heart, as a child, as well, and she turned it down to stay with her people and she always regretted it. That was why she understood the significance of the ocean offering it to Moana and why she kept the heart and tried to prepare Moana for what she needed to do. And that would be why she was, immediately, came back as a manta and was Moana's guide. It could even be that her Father was given the chance as well, and is why his friend died. If you notice, when Moana showed him the heart there was no surprise in his eyes at all. It made him madder.
This movie centers around Polynesian beliefs. I grew up in Hawaii and from a young age, we were taught all about the different Gods and Goddesses. It is actually very interesting and I would honestly recommend checking out some traditional Polynesian stories. We also were taught how to make canoes and how to read the stars. I really love that my school was really dedicated to teaching us our culture.
I love the Hawaiian culture and beliefs , learning about each cultures God and Goddess is interesting tho I’m Christian and believe in one God . I just find it cool and always want to keep learning .
Ever notice grandma was always there. When Moana found the Heart grandma was in the bushes keeping an eye on her keeping the Heart for years until she was ready. When she first tried to sail beyond the reef and got caught in the coral grandma was there. When Moana was at her lowest and had failed, grandma was there to give her inspiration. She let Moana explore the world, kept an eye on her from afar but stepped in when she was needed. Grandma is the GOAT.
Thank you Maui, for fishing up the North Island on New Zealand! And for giving us fire. And for slowing down the sun, giving us longer days *edit* His hook wasn't 'made' by the gods, Maui took the jawbone of his grandmother and made the hook out of that. He's generally seen as a benevolent 'trickster' god. Always taking shortcuts and putting himself first, but still managing to get a good result for those around him...mostly
Absolutely fantastic movie and we have the magic Lin-Manuel Miranda (Encanto, Hamilton, In the Heights) to thank for the soundtrack. If you have not watched Hamilton, then I would absolutely recommend that for a reaction. In terms of Disney, then Frozen and Frozen II are essential - I prefer the latter but I’m aware that’s controversial. And with regard to Dwayne Johnson, I love his movie San Andreas; one of my very favourites. Keep up the great reactions and thank you!
The soundtrack for Moana wasn’t all Lin Manuel I love him though. However, the overall research Disney did involved Pacific Islanders, which is our culture that the movie Moana is based on. Opetaia Foa’i a music legend in the Pacific Islands had a massive input with the songs and soundtrack of the movie. He leads a music group called Te Vaka who have been active for years. The song in the very beginning of the movie called Tulou Tagaloa was written and composed by Opetaia sung by Te Vaka and other songs that aren’t in English were by Tevaka, like the song “Logo Te Pate” that’s played during the time Maui and Moana were training, and the song “Loimata e matagi” that was played when baby Moana was playing with ocean when the heart first appeared. Opetaia also voiced the chief that starts the song “We know the way” that started and sung in Pacific island languages. Also, another musical legend named Igelese Ete in the Pacific Islands lead a Fijian group that sung background voices that’s played during the time when Te Fiti’s heart was restored. Also the background at 8:35 of this video 🥰🫶🏽 but indeed Lin Manuel is a genius
I thought Lin-Manuel Miranda couldn't outdone himself after Moana and Hamilton, and then he gave us Encanto and the wonderful "We don't talk about Bruno". Man is a lyrical genius ✨
This is my favourite Disney movie of all time, probably my second favourite animated movie overall after Into the Spiderverse. "You're welcome" is an aboslute banger but so are most of the songs in this film, they all give me chills. Fun fact: The Rock started singing along to "You're Welcome" when he took his kids to see it and they shushed him so he wouldn't spoil the movie :)
“She’s like ‘my work is done. I can now become a stingray’” sigh..little did you know her work was indeed done 😭 lol You’re teary you’re happy for grandma for becoming one like she dreamed she would 🥲
If I recall, the line "The chicken lives!" was a reference to a point in development when they planned to scrap the chicken from the movie. After a board meeting they decided to keep it, and someone exclaimed "The chicken lives!", and people thought it was funny so they decided to add it to the actual movie.
Definitely my favourite of the traditional "Disney Princess-Style" movies. And yes the music in this one is pretty much unparalleled. "You're Welcome" is awesome but "How Far I'll Go" is The One (gives me chills every time). 👍❤
It is New Zealand. Known as Aotearoa to the original islanders the Maori who sailed from Polynesia,. Aotearoa, The Land of the Long White Cloud (which it often is). It's one of those Westerly breezes being pushed upwards by the mountains which run North to South. But that's because it is a subduction zone where one tectonic plate is forced below the other. Warning. Earthquakes.
The ocean chose Moana because of her HUMANITY. Maui couldn’t do it, he's shoot first ask questions later. The ocean couldn’t do it because water hurts Te Ka.
Gotta do Onward as well. Onward and Big Hero 6 are my top two animated ones. Moana is up there too, but I like Onward more. Also fun fact.. The chicken is "voiced" by Alan Tudyk, the same guy that played the robot from Rogue One. He's in a bunch of random disney movies and you can never tell that it's him. Rogue One is the closest to his actual voice. I watched an interview with Dwayne Johnson a while back where he talked about doing the singing. Sounded like they didn't even know he could sing before casting him but he absolutely loves karaoke so he was pretty stoked. A lot of the time the voice actor and the singer are different people, but he did both.
I had this movie on twice or three times daily a few years ago, because it was the only thing that could get our new baby to fall asleep. And I still never got tired of it.
9:35 Those are called Hype Tears. I get them every time I watch Goku turn SSJ3. When something is so cool and the only emotion your body can muster out is tears.
2:37 Since the dawn of life itself, that is from the genetic and cellular level all the way through to neurology and self-awareness, our instincts have evolved to develop an affinity for water-rich environments. The reason any animal is attracted to shiny, glimmering things is because fresh water is the original shiny, glimmering object. Waves at the seashore are the original ASMR. Everything within our being is less stressed when we're near big water, as we're more than half built of that stuff and it keeps evaporating.
SebScreen"I will never sing tho, my worst fear is karaoke." Also SebScreen 20 seconds later "There is always more outside your comfort zone, that's where you need to go"
Really happy you got to this one! It's one of my favorites! And the Shiny song is sung by Jermaine Clement and was supposed to be Flight of the Conchords style
I loved this reaction, it's a beautiful film. My kids had it on repeat for months. I think Princess and the Frog is underrated - I liked it. But if you've not seen Frozen 1 or 2, then I'm looking forward to those reactions too. Have a great weekend xx
I loved this movie when I first saw it and thought it was beautiful. Then my nephew was born with a heart defect and needed a transplant. He loved Moana, so it became more than just a movie to me - it was an extension of him. I used to sing Know Who You Are, especially the words "They have stolen the heart from inside you, but this does not define you" to him. Unfortunately he passed away at 1 year old and watching Moana is hard sometimes - it's part of him though so I still get through it.
Trivia: Alan Tudyk, who provided the voice of Hei-Hei the rooster, also played Villager #3, the one who asks 'Shouldn't we just...cook him?' Trivia; While most of the movie is done computer animation, Maui's tattoos were done with traditional hand-drawn animation.
2:00 - 2:15 - I love how you get "cuted out" - happens to me too and it's so great! First time I remember reacting like that was when I was a kid and first saw baby Simba in The Lion King :) 9:30 - I totally get the "mad chills"- I think it's because "it's a thing of such beauty" ;)
I think you should watch classic Disney movies if you haven't already. The princess ones are pure nostalgia for me. You should also watch The Wizard of Oz if you haven't yet. It is so good. By the way, keep up the good work bro.
My grandson loved this movie from around ages 6 months to 2 years. Then he decided it was scary. We used to watch it all the time and now he never wants to. It miss watching it with him so much.
Central Intelligence and The Rundown are 2 other funny good action movies starring The Rock. Definitely recommend you give it a watch. Event Horizon doesn't star The Rock but it's another movie I'd really like to see you react to. Many video games were inspired by Event Horizon.
One of the first things I bought upon becoming an adult and starting to have my own money is a giant Pua plush (the pig). It's exactly the kind of thing my parents never would have let me buy. He's adorable, very soft, and about a foot and a half tall. I love him dearly
The shiny crab telling “If I was Sebastian and have a cool Jamaican accent you totally helped me.” He was referring to Sebastian a crab, Ariel’s father’s advisor from The Little Mermaid 😂 It so coincidence also that your name is Sebastian as well lmao
You should do some of the live action Disney films. Freaky Friday- the ones with Jodie Foster and Lindsey Lohan. There’s another one but it’s not great imo. Also the OG Parent Trap with Hayley Mills and the remake with Lindsey Lohan.
The way they made the big, bad monster the devolved version of the mother island (islands start out as lava erupted out of underwater volcanoes that cools and eventually makes its way to the surface, I believe I have my science right there) hit me like a ton of bricks when I first realized it. Like of course they had a source of magic to restore her life force, but still, there was thought put behind that creation myth.
The crab was talking about (the little mermaid) witch has a crab named Sebastian he's one of my favorite dis characters, like your Disney reactions so far I hope you keep going and you'd probably really like the racoon in Pocahontas or the hummingbird.
Seb, you'd probably enjoy The Rock in one of his early films "Rumble in the Jungle" with Sean William Scott (Stiffler from American Pie) - It's really fun!
from what i remember being told as a kid , a lot of what the rock sang in the song “your welcome” , maui actually did… like catching the sun with his hook along with forming the hawaiian island chain
So Maui was just released as a playable god in the game Smite, and his in-game sound clip when you say "You're welcome" is: "Hey, come on... you know!" lol
Wait, you haven't seen Frozen yet?! Definitely watch those! I like the second one even more than the first, and the first is already an amazing movie. Looking forward to future reactions!
Kid, honestly I could go on and on I could explain every natural phenomenon The tide, the grass, the ground Oh, that was Maui just messing around I killed an eel I buried its guts Sprouted a tree, now you got coconuts What's the lesson? What is the takeaway? Don't mess with Maui when he's on a breakaway And the tapestry here on my skin Is a map of the victories I win Look where I've been I make everything happen Look at that mean mini-Maui just tickety-tappin
Something everyone might not realize right away is the grandma is past her due date, she was only alive because she wore the heart around her neck every day, and passes on as soon as she gives it to Moana.
It isn’t explained well because they choose to make a joke out of it, but I think the idea that if the water is warm, you’re going in the right direction comes from the fact that they’re heading towards an active volcanic region or in this case lava monster. Now you could say no at that point they’re still heading to the realm of monsters, but it seems as though it might be on the way, or maybe in the same direction. So in my mind that’s the best explanation.
neat detail: Te'Fiti as Te'Ka still has the power of creation. Lava flowing into the ocean will create new islands over enough time. But without the heart the power is destructive
Best song in disney hands down, what did you think of MOANA?
Well… what can I say except you’re welcome?
LOVE moana! i cant even fathom how it came out in 2016! it felt like last week haha
lin manuel miranda and the team put their foot into the music
THE BESTTT🔥🔥🔥the rock kills it🐐
nah nothing beats SHINY your welcomes still good though
The end of this, where Moana uses compassion to address the goddess's trauma instead of responding with violence, oh, man, it makes me tear up every time.
Agreed! I love that whole scene so much.
Me too!
Absolutely. I have an adopted daughter who has a lot of trauma induced outbursts and we use this scene frequently to illustrate to her about emotions.
I've only ever cried in a few movies, and this would never take this movie for a movie to cry about
I didn't let anyone see but I teared up real quick when Moana was singing directly to Te Ka. 💔
Fun fact about newborn turtles: a big thing that's always made clear is that if you're going to help them find the water, you absolutely cannot carry them there. They have to find it on their own.
The scene at the beginning is essentially how Moanas journey ends up going out on the ocean. She may have been pointed in the right direction, but ultimately she had to do it on her own.
That's beautiful
kinda curious though, what's the reason for that? why exactly would that be a bad idea?

Alan Tudyk is a legend. Love his work.
I bet he knows what *Paul Bettany* felt like when he almost got laryngitis from all the shouting in *A Knight's Tale* . 😄
and the bird in encanto!
He also voiced Duke of Weselton in Frozen AND Duke Weaselton the Weasel in Zootopia.
Fun fact: Moana's voice actress was 15 when filming this. So the acting and the singing from Moana was done by a fifteen year old girl. A fifteen year old girl hit those notes lol.

Yep and the movie came out a day before her 16th birthday

Definitely like the grandma part of your theory.
The granny part makes sense. The dad part, eh.
8:09 Fun fact: this is actually true! Polynesians DID stop wayfinding for a period of time, and nobody knows why.
This movie centers around Polynesian beliefs. I grew up in Hawaii and from a young age, we were taught all about the different Gods and Goddesses. It is actually very interesting and I would honestly recommend checking out some traditional Polynesian stories. We also were taught how to make canoes and how to read the stars.

What do you think about Lilo & Stitch?
Moana put the shell on top of the rocks to symbolize that as she became chief they left the island behind and went to the ocean
one of the best sound tracks to come out of disney 100%
Just thinking about the fact that Alan Tudyk sat in a studio and did all the sound effects for the chicken brings me joy
Ever notice grandma was always there. When Moana found the Heart grandma was in the bushes keeping an eye on her keeping the Heart for years until she was ready. When she first tried to sail beyond the reef and got caught in the coral grandma was there. When Moana was at her lowest and had failed, grandma was there to give her inspiration. She let Moana explore the world, kept an eye on her from afar but stepped in when she was needed. Grandma is the GOAT.
No, she's the stingray lol
this is probably one of the best Disney films I’ve watched, not a dull moment!
Glad you're watching this movie! I think you'll really love it, the grandmother dynamic is second only to Coco for me.
Technically Mama Coco is his great grandma but I get what you mean ☺️💖
Has he ever wanted Coco?
are we just gonna ignore the fact that seb used to throw sand at the sea to get it angry lmaoo
Fun fact: traditional wayfinding is still practiced even today!
Thank you Maui, for fishing up the North Island on New Zealand! And for giving us fire. And for slowing down the sun, giving us longer days
*edit* His hook wasn't 'made' by the gods, Maui took the jawbone of his grandmother and made the hook out of that. He's generally seen as a benevolent 'trickster' god. Always taking shortcuts and putting himself first, but still managing to get a good result for those around him...mostly

That post-credits scene part gets me every time (“If my name was Sebastian, and I had a cool Jamaican accent, you’d totally help me”).
I loved this movie; the colors are just amazing. Hei-Hei (the chicken) is voiced by absolute legend Alan Tudyk.
He's great in 'Death at a Funeral' (2007)
“She’s like ‘my work is done. I can now become a stingray’” sigh..little did you know her work was indeed done 😭 lol
You’re teary you’re happy for grandma for becoming one like she dreamed she would 🥲
29:01 actually he refers to sebastian from Little Mermaid... yep, we theorists have a crazy explanation for that....
She sang the song live and it is super good! "how far I'll go"
If I recall, the line "The chicken lives!" was a reference to a point in development when they planned to scrap the chicken from the movie.

And also voices the villager who suggests that they cook the chicken 😂

I'm french and I just discovered that she is named Moana in english when, in the french version, it's Vaiana. Big lovely hello from France 💙🤍❤
The ocean chose Moana because of her HUMANITY.
Maui couldn’t do it, he's shoot first ask questions later.
The ocean couldn’t do it because water hurts Te Ka.
"He's literally playing himself"......when has The Rock ever played anything but The Rock pretending to be someone else? 😅
Gotta do Onward as well. Onward and Big Hero 6 are my top two animated ones. Moana is up there too, but I like Onward more.

That reaction at the end to the sebastian reference to my little mermaid was hilarious😂!
Yes, The Little Mermaid is required viewing 😆
21:24 he's like a mermaid.. a mershark.. a Mark 🧍🏻♂️
"You're Welcome" is absolutely the best song. It blew me away the first time I heard it, The Rock has some serious bars.
You would seriously LOVE the new Jumanji movie with The Rock and Kevin Hart. Absolutely hilarious.
Agreed
I loved this movie when I first saw it and thought it was beautiful. Then my nephew was born with a heart defect and needed a transplant. He loved Moana, so it became more than just a movie to me - it was an extension of him. I used to sing Know Who You Are, especially the words "They have stolen the heart from inside you, but this does not define you" to him.

my day just got a little better, thank you for that :)
21:21 "Chicken Feet? Oh, a Shark... bottom. He is like a mermaid. A... Mer-Shark. A Mark...?" 😂😂
I think you should watch classic Disney movies if you haven't already. The princess ones are pure nostalgia for me. You should also watch The Wizard of Oz if you haven't yet. It is so good. By the way, keep up the good work bro.
This is my favorite Disney movie of all time, and I've never looked forward to a movie as much as I look forward to the remake.
My grandson loved this movie from around ages 6 months to 2 years. Then he decided it was scary. We used to watch it all the time and now he never wants to. It miss watching it with him so much.
28:33 scuse me, did you not see her lift one up when she was singing How Far I'll Go? She CHOSE not to use a stone.
20:05 it will make sense once you see frozen but the reindeer when Maui tries to be a hawk he turns into the reindeer from Frozen
Shout out to the legendary Lin Manuel Miranda for the soundtrack!
One of my absolute favorite Disney movies and my favorite soundtrack!
I really like how he repeats the facial expressions of the characters and their actions😍. It's so cool!!!🤩
Moana is one of my favorite animated films of all times and the soundtrack is amazing, thanks to Lin Manuel Miranda and Auli'i Cravalho
The end scene is a reference to Sebastian the crab from the Little Mermaid😄 So funny it fits with your name too though!

The way they made the big, bad monster the devolved version of the mother island (islands start out as lava erupted out of underwater volcanoes that cools and eventually makes its way to the surface, I believe I have my science right there) hit me like a ton of bricks when I first realized it. Like of course they had a source of magic to restore her life force, but still, there was thought put behind that creation myth.
When Seb said his biggest fear is doing karaoke. Same! Hahaha also, The Rock's kid doesn't believe him when he says he is Maui. Hahaha
The crab was talking about (the little mermaid) witch has a crab named Sebastian he's one of my favorite dis characters, like your Disney reactions so far I hope you keep going and you'd probably really like the racoon in Pocahontas or the hummingbird.
Seb, you'd probably enjoy The Rock in one of his early films "Rumble in the Jungle" with Sean William Scott (Stiffler from American Pie) - It's really fun!
Does the song "Shiney" that the crab sings give anyone else David Bowie vibes? RIP David Bowie.❤️
from what i remember being told as a kid , a lot of what the rock sang in the song “your welcome” , maui actually did… like catching the sun with his hook along with forming the hawaiian island chain
The rock is so talented it’s crazy😂
When you said "it sounds like a Bowie one" as soon as Shiny started playing when Bowie literally recorded a demo for it before he passed away
So Maui was just released as a playable god in the game Smite, and his in-game sound clip when you say "You're welcome" is: "Hey, come on... you know!" lol
Now I want special Patreon bonus feature of sing-along with Seb!
Wait, you haven't seen Frozen yet?! Definitely watch those! I like the second one even more than the first, and the first is already an amazing movie. Looking forward to future reactions!
I full support you buying a plush version of pua aka the pig cause I also own one and it’s adorable
Kid, honestly I could go on and on
I could explain every natural phenomenon
The tide, the grass, the ground
Oh, that was Maui just messing around
I killed an eel
I buried its guts
Sprouted a tree, now you got coconuts
What's the lesson?
What is the takeaway?
Don't mess with Maui when he's on a breakaway
And the tapestry here on my skin
Is a map of the victories I win
Look where I've been
I make everything happen
Look at that mean mini-Maui just tickety-tappin
is this a real place? Yeah, sorta. Moana's island is fictional but it's based on Polynesian locations and culture like those of Hawaii, Tahiti, etc.
“My work is done, now I can become a stingray 💀”
*Bro just foreshadowed the whole next scene.*
ok but now we need a hei hei and or pua plushie for the collection!!!
I would love a full length reaction to THIS
I’m going through the entire playlist & I just saw momo & appa behind you!!
Something everyone might not realize right away is the grandma is past her due date, she was only alive because she wore the heart around her neck every day, and passes on as soon as she gives it to Moana.
The way the SEA tilted its head MAKES IT SEEM LIKE A DOG ITS A DOGG ITS A DAWG
Oh my gosh, I can not tell you seb how long I have waited for this video
"I do have a cool Jamaican(?) accent" oh you totally missed the Little Mermaid reference and I've never felt older 😅🤣
you should def watch Meet The Robinsons. its not a classic disney movie but it is severely underrated
It isn’t explained well because they choose to make a joke out of it, but I think the idea that if the water is warm, you’re going in the right direction comes from the fact that they’re heading towards an active volcanic region or in this case lava monster. Now you could say no at that point they’re still heading to the realm of monsters, but it seems as though it might be on the way, or maybe in the same direction. So in my mind that’s the best explanation.
neat detail: Te'Fiti as Te'Ka still has the power of creation. Lava flowing into the ocean will create new islands over enough time. But without the heart the power is destructive
I knew Seb was gonna love this & laugh at some of the 🌽 parts that still work 😂
My grandma cried in the movie theater when she watched this because she said it looked sm like home (Samoa)😭great now I miss her🥹
I wanna cry whenever Maui/ Dwayne says “ it chose wrong “ and then leaves
The way the crab 🦀 flabbergast you at the end 😂
'your welcome' will always be a BANGER
