    I still think that "The Last Wish" is in many ways way better than the first Puss In Boots film! it was so nice to hear the voice actors for Puss and Kitty reprise their roles after 11 years!!!

    I never got to realize what it deeply meant when Death says, "Pick it up!", but it definitely had me hooked to how intimidating he is to where Puss worked up the courage to fight for his last life. What a masterpiece this movie is.

    The photorealism for Shrek works because the Shrek Movies were basically a middle finger to fairytales. The design changes in this movie also makes sense because it’s not trying to stick it to fairytales. It’s trying to tell an action-adventure-comedy with characters that happen to be from the Shrek universe

    God this movie was so good. Genuinely made me tear up at a couple points. Even after my 4th watch I still cry at the panic attack scene and the ending. Genuinely a phenomenal piece of media.
    Its insane to me that this came from the same studio as the Boss Baby.

    I think the first scene where Puss in Boots runs from death and the dog therapy scene really illustrated how I felt when having a bad panic attack. When Perrito just comforts Puss honestly made me sob.
    I think the ideas of facing your reality and embracing it, or facing it with courage is something that we really needed to hear. I was very happy that the writers animators and directors where allowed to tell this kind of story with a franchise as large as this one and their passion really showed.
    My only gripe is that I honestly wish that they casted Death as Benecio del Toro or someone with his type of voice. Death sounded a little young imo and although he had so many good lines. (especially at the end) I just felt his voice failed him.
    Also Kiki I just wanted to say I've been a happy subscriber for about a year now and that your videos really have helped me deal with my own issues and made me a more empathetic person. Wherever your life takes you, I hope its full of happiness and joy.
    Ps I loved your recent camio in toonrifictariq's video!

You say it didn't hit as hard for you a month later because you're not hearing that wolfs whistle anymore, that just goes to show the internal personal progress you have made and will continue to make until you someday, whenever it may be, you forget what that whistle ever sounded like.

    Maybe it's me getting older but even that animation at the beginning where Puss is fighting the giant had me getting kind of emotional. Nevermind the scene where Perrito comforts Puss or the resolution with Goldie Locks and the bears. Just seems like a movie made with so much meaning and it shows through every frame. Needless to say I'm glad I watched this at home and not in the theater crying in front of strangers. Excellent video!

    My family watched Avatar 2 before this movie because my father wanted to watch Cameron's movie. But the week before I went back to college I convinced them to watch this movie. Glad I did, it's gorgeous and one of my favorites. The animation is fantastic especially the final confrontation with the wolf imo. Also, that whistling is straight up iconic.
    While this movie wasn't lifechanging for me (that title belongs to a videogame), it reinforces an idea I already had come to. Life can be terryfing, frustraiting, uncertain; but it can also have a lot of good things that make it worth it. But to find out, you have to try, and now I'm willing to try.

    • @PlaceHolder994
      @PlaceHolder994 Рік тому

      @@GalekC it was Night In The Woods. I bought it on June last year for my birthday. I think it had such an impact on me because I was struggling with some things the characters deal with in the story. I guess the game is not as universal as the movie, but it has helped a lot of people as well. It's also full of charm.
      It made me come to the conclusion of "life might not be always pretty, but it's still worth it" among others.

    I didn’t expect such a touching video about “that cat movie” when I started it, but now I’m sniffly and a little teary eyed! It’s beyond words but the feeling that THAT piece of media that makes you find comfort in your situation. My best animated example has to be Violet Evergarden, it really showed me someone who’s as naive and weak as I felt push beyond it and find purpose. I really did “pick it up”!

    This movie is my favorite this year alone, and truly shows what animation and storytelling can do and that it has no age range or limitations. It's relatable on so many levels, and you made a lot of great points that showcase that. The one line of "Pick it up" was portrayed and embedded into the story so well, and you explained it in deeper detail of why that is beautifully. It isn't always easy to keep going, to "pick it up" and find the strength and hope to keep taking those steps forward no matter what life you've lived, but it's so special that movies and stories such as this one can impact everyone, and at times even save those who truly need it the most. Thank you for making this video, seriously thank you and for all that you do! Know that you're awesome, and you're doing great even when things get tough. Never stop being you, because you are only one of many, many, many unique and infinite stars that make the universe shine! ♥️

    Thank you for making this video.
    The day after I saw this movie, I recommended it to everyone around me. They thought I was joking, if they asked why I'd just tell them it's a good movie.
    Truth is I'm very bad at being serious around others. I don't tell anyone about my circumstances because I prefer making people laugh than making people worry. Though seeing this film in the theatre after a few bad months broke my composure very easily.
    I don't really know why I'm writing this, I guess listening to somebody I don't know open up about the same predicament motivated me to write a bit. I'm not that great at opening up so I might delete this later in the week.
    Just wanted to let you know I'm really grateful for getting to watch this video.
    Edit: Just wanted to apologise for making people read a whole thesis on my emotional destruction to a cat cartoon

    I think the wolf, Death, is not a villain and it's understandable but not correct to call him that. He's an antagonist, and probably better described as a psychopomp calling itself death. Little difference in the later, but in the former that's a big deal. Puss is afraid of him because he's mysterious and clearly more than his match, making the last life issue have more stakes. As far as a character he's more like a force that just is. So, appropriate. I never got the impression that Puss truly outmatched Death. Its more like as he showed off his character improvements and physically kept up with a rising bar Death essentially tested him and chose not to overpower and just take the cat. I loved the visuals showing the test, so beautiful.
