The trope of the fallen hero who has lost sight of who they are regaining their powers because a child believes in them is one I will never get tired of. Gets me every time.
Sun Wukong is no fallen hero at all. Before he lost his powers, he was a mischievous being who acquired immortality and basically fought against the armies of heaven. He assault and wreck havoc on heaven. Sun Wukong got so powerful that Buddha had to finally get involve. Sun Wukong was finally defeated and imprisoned by the great Buddha underneath a mountain with a mystical seal for five centuries. This is why he doesn't have his powers in this movie because of the seal. This movie's interpretation of Sun Wukong is a little different. He finally broke the seal and reveal his true power because he lost a friend which is the child. It's similar to how Goku became a Super Saiyan after losing his bestfriend Krillin in Dragon Ball Z. Sun Wukong felt the pain of loss and in turn was able to brake the seal and reveal his true self and power. In the novel Journey to the West, Sun Wukong was given a magical headband to keep him under control because he was such a trickster. For 500 years, Wukong lay immobilized beneath the weight of Buddha's mountain. Eventually, a traveling monk named Tang Sanzang found the Monkey King and offered to release him on the condition that he would repent and become the monk's disciple. During this time, Sun Wukong was still a trickster and mischievous being.
@@goomyliaplayz7911all of 2012-2015 a sea of indie to action films has this trope, too numerous for me to even account for a single title. Only one I can give is Dragon Hunters but I think that’s a 2009 or 2010 movie.
The fun thing is , that even if this is an OP moment for a protagonist in a movie, the original sun wukong was stronger than this 24 hours a day lol. He just went around moving the moon just because he could do it and to flex to others. Imagine that.
Lmao for real. Sun wukong was so grossly nerfed for 90% of this movie to balance things out, but a monster like hun dun would barely be a lieutenant for an actual strong monster like the 3 animal brothers. Sun Wukong can travel at the speed of light, effortlessly weild a 6+ ton staff, and carry a mountain larger than the sun. Also what even happened to zhu baije. Like my guy might not be as strong as the monkey king, but he isn't a pushover either. Instead he was flanderized into the dum comic relief character
@@bendikok6619 it’s because in this movie, Sun Wukong still wasn’t released from the seal the Buddha trapped him under. The end was him getting restored to his former glory.
@@user-my2ci5ps4s Yeah I get that part, but what about zhu baije. He never had a seal like that. His introduction was literally him being completely unstoppable until wukong turned up Its never explained in this film how pathetic he is. I mean zhu baije should be able to beat hun dun like a farmer with a rake against a fat earthworm
For all his power, all that godly might, he couldn’t save him. It took a moment of despair and the loss of a dear friend to shatter the bonds and set the Monkey King free once again.
Actually he survived in the end. If you listen carefully before Sun turns around at the end you can hear him calling out to him which means he survived that fall
As a kid, the lore around Sun Wukong had always intrigued me. Loved reading Journey to the West, seen a stage play, the show with Liu Xiao Ling Tong, Cheang Pou-soi's movies are great (second film is my fav). Even liked character inspirations, like DBZ's Goku (oh boy, that was a pretty obsessive phase. Merch. Merch everywhere). Now this very bold animation! Twenty-four years later in my life, Sun Wukong is still present. Reaching others about the culture and artistic communities representing this legend. 💜 Becoming more prominent with time. That's incredible! Now with recent anime and Black Myth: Wukong on the horizon, I've no doubt the interest will continue to grow.
He is the Monkey King, used to be one of the strongest gods. But he was punished and sealed all his power by the Buddha because he had beaten all other gods to make himself the King of Gods. The Buddha gave him a chance to be enlighted. And in this film, he had known the love between people, the sacrifice..., that's why the wrist lace (which had used by the Buddha to seal his might) broke and released his true power.
3:32 definitely my favourite scene in this entire movie. I like it that he's charging full strength ahead but this time with a purpose.. and only then at that moment when Sun Wukong became *truly* powerful! 🙂 -- Love this movie.
@@phuongvu527 hence for "Trickster." Idk what you want from this, but you just describe his character. What else do you see but type in circles? Because right now, it's ticking me off because you just gave the answer that literally explains why he's a trickster god in the eyes of people.
This is a great moment, I will try and sum it up. Only when he thought he had lost that which was more important than himself, did he regain everything he had lost because of his selfishness. Love.🥰
Seeing the kids hand reach out for wukong from the rubble is enough to make you shed tears man. Tried not to but it was a hard task. Am I embarrassed that I failed? Nope.
I just had a thought. I learned about chakras and how when they’re blocked, they can cause physical restraint. What if Buddha’s seal was symbolic for blocked chakras that caused sun Wukong physical restraint? There are seven chakras which are root: safety-stability-strength-survival, sacral: emotions-desires-creativity-self forgiving, solar plexus: power-will-self esteem, heart: peace-love-empathy, throat:self expression-communication, third eye: intuition-decision making-the surrender of egocentric intellect in favor of attaining nondualistic wisdom-enlightenment, and crown: detachment from ego and self realization. I think the ones he had to unblock was definitely root, sacral, crown, third eye, solar plexus since the negative attributes were ego/desires/insecurity/fear/guilt/low self worth/confusion/etc. because when he lost to the dark lord the first time and failed to save the baby girl and turned away from Luier saying “they’re not his problem” because he didn’t believe he could be the hero they deserve without his powers. When he tried and failed to break the seal that he fell unconscious into the water and found Luier’s Sun Wukong doll, gave him the realization to overcome his fear, self consciousness, failure, loss, self pity, desires etc. because when he remembered how Luier told the little girl “with sun Wukong here to protect us, we don’t have to be afraid”, he realized he didn’t need his powers to be their hero. He just needed to be there for them. Being a hero is about doing what’s right which he implied when he faced the dark lord once again “listen up! I am the monkey king, and I’m here to do what’s right”. And to put the icing on the cake, losing Luier is the most pain he’s ever felt in over five hundred years he’s been alive. Remember how he would be in so much pain after trying to break the seal, his face was twisted in pain and he would be so out of breath and even fell unconscious that one time. It had to be excruciating for him, but after he thought Luier was dead, nothing could be more painful which is why he was so physically numb to the seal’s restraint. Because the more you love someone, the more it hurts to lose them. He dropped to the ground for a second when he was breaking it and didn’t have to physically fight the seal as much this time, because he was mentally and emotionally fighting it until he found the will to finally break it. Because whatever imbalanced attributes you selfishly hold onto emotionally and mentally will block you physically. Wukong became motivated after losing Luier, because he was no longer doing these things for himself, he was doing it for Luier as well as the other children. I don’t know if I’m explaining this well. But anyway, this is why I love Wukong. He delivers that narrative promise and has the best character development.
well you can clear the seven chakras anytime but the problem is the root cause if you dont remove it even you cleanse your chakras everyday the root cause will make your chakras block again. the root cause is in the consciousness of a being even sun wukong has it. it will take a great realization to remove it because there is no magic formula for it that is the main purpose of his life in earth once you remove the root cause in your personality which is the main reason why his chakras are block you will also attain enlightenment in case of sun he got again his god state power
I just wanna say that’s 10/10 for the acting like u can actually tell that there was actual pain in that cry it almost feels like it was real really good👍🏼
This is what goku should be like in dbs. Goku final form should be something like super sayian 4 but look like a god of destruction with mastered ultra instinct but on Zeno level! That’s basically sun Wukong
@@thangithangi1164 technically yeah but also in LoL His character is so old you can use him in all sorts of media, whether or not they are based off each other is not gonna be confirmed but it's not like they can't use Sun wukong
Son Wukong is the original OP MC. He has at least three different types of immortality and beat up ALL the other gods, it took buddha to even slow him down. He can make clones of himself as strong as he is out of his hair, has an unbreakable staff that can change to any physical dimensions and mass he wants, and he eventually becomes enlightened and ascends beyond godhood. Also he has eye lasers. The people who thought him up basically just kept adding powers and abilities to him like a freaking DC Superhero.

❤️ love from Nepal This is indeed a great movie. That little kid and baby girl, that old man, that pigman & that dragon. Masterpiece “The Monkey king- Hero is back” Mind blowing animation, creativity, art, dedication that sound ❤️
Actually, me and my brother while watching this were saying that Jackie Chan didn't tried at all while voicing this... As much as I love his movies and like him as an actor he didn't show any emotions or even tried.... Sucks, but still a great animated movie
I absolutely love the original Journey to the West story. I was so happy this movie got its funding. I'm proud of the studio that could make it happen.
Story line is perfect. Everything is correlated and reasonable. I gave 5. This movie was better than some most Hollywood animation. . Waiting for Nezah 2.
This might be against the message of this movie but since the bracer caused him pain each time he tried to wield his full power, it was at this moment he was in such emotional pain the discomfort of the limiter was paltry by comparison, giving him the conviction to fight through the pain and break the restraint.
The pain of the flesh can be unbearable and horrible, but it will go away. Phantoms and replays of that pain may happen but in time they will fade and heal like nothing given time.................................................. But the pain of the heart can never fully heal. Those scars will never go away. You may think you are fine, only to break to tears and pieces in days to come. You can only carry that anguish for the rest of your life, no matter how much time passes and how little it hurts to think about.
I remember when I first got introduced to this movie every since then I enjoy seeing the monkey King in action, especially the seeing where I thought the kid was killed, but thank God he wasn’t. He was just knocked out, but that’s when the monkey king himself a.k.a. son will come reimbursed out of anger not gonna lie I low-key shed a tear or two.😢
As an asian i have been watching son wukong since the beginning so every time they make a new movie... i feel so happy because the original son wukong film is da FUCKING BEST they made it with ONE MOTHER FUCKING CAMERA MAN only one camera man so its gonna take very long to film it all but somehow they did and all of the actor is old but they are still a LEGEND #iluvsonwukong
it reminds me of when frieza killed krillin and that's when goku went super sayain and this is the exact same thing and when I saw it for the first time at the beginning I cried and at the end I had seen that same rage and hatred to some before and that is why these to would be connected to each other

I really loved this movie it's underrated, and I think Sun Wukong looks badass in that final look xD
I don‘t want to throw shade or anything, but Jackie Chan just ain‘t the right man to voice someone crying.
Actually, me and my brother while watching this were saying that Jackie Chan didn't tried at all while voicing this... As much as I love his movies and like him as an actor he didn't show any emotions or even tried.... Sucks, but still a great animated movie
They should’ve picked the guy who voiced samurai jack for wukong, he’d be perfect!!
10/10 still Best scene
I absolutely love the original Journey to the West story. I was so happy this movie got its funding. I'm proud of the studio that could make it happen.
Goku: how you get your power back?
Sun: my friend died. U?
Goku: pretty much the same
Story line is perfect. Everything is correlated and reasonable. I gave 5. This movie was better than some most Hollywood animation. . Waiting for Nezah 2.
This might be against the message of this movie but since the bracer caused him pain each time he tried to wield his full power, it was at this moment he was in such emotional pain the discomfort of the limiter was paltry by comparison, giving him the conviction to fight through the pain and break the restraint.
The pain of the flesh can be unbearable and horrible, but it will go away. Phantoms and replays of that pain may happen but in time they will fade and heal like nothing given time..................................................
But the pain of the heart can never fully heal. Those scars will never go away. You may think you are fine, only to break to tears and pieces in days to come. You can only carry that anguish for the rest of your life, no matter how much time passes and how little it hurts to think about.
That was the coolest way someone has ever put on a cape
I fucking cried like a bitch at this
I watche dthis when i wss like 5yo now i just found it again and im reminising every single scene that i loved in my head
who came from black myth wukong
i actually go find the old 1986 tv series opening theme actually but somehow find this

4 years later, this game is 10/10. If it doesn't win 2024 GOTY then the competition is rigged!
I remember when I first got introduced to this movie every since then I enjoy seeing the monkey King in action, especially the seeing where I thought the kid was killed, but thank God he wasn’t. He was just knocked out, but that’s when the monkey king himself a.k.a. son will come reimbursed out of anger not gonna lie I low-key shed a tear or two.😢
2:27 friezaaaaaaaaaaaa
This is the anime where the character of son Goku originated??
You know you’re strong when your blunt weapon become a long range slash attack
i started tearing up after watching this
This. This right here is the Great Sage Equal To Heaven, and he's *pissed.*
2:47
Comments: This is not even in my full power
Wukong: this is enough power dude
I saw this scene before I saw the movie, I love the movie and this scene!
As an asian i have been watching son wukong since the beginning so every time they make a new movie... i feel so happy because the original son wukong film is da FUCKING BEST they made it with ONE MOTHER FUCKING CAMERA MAN only one camera man so its gonna take very long to film it all but somehow they did and all of the actor is old but they are still a LEGEND #iluvsonwukong
Pulling out staff from his ear is so cool
This was Wukongs best design.
agreed
Black Myth: Wukong
I watched this at school, and when I saw this scene, I balled my eyes out.
I found this gem on Hulu and enjoyed every second of it.
Jackie really nailed this voice here
Eat your heart out, Goku
Goku is Wukong's Japanese name ;)
Minh P Doesn't matter
Yes, it does because then there will be people confused with the DBZ character Son Goku (Kakarot) and the Monkey King.
JusticeForce Jr.™ Not the point
Michael Iv Then what's your point?
this guy was used as a base for goku who although not this powerfull is still a major powerhouse
This is the anime where the character of son Goku originated?
@@sudhanshupandey6246 the legend of him not the anime, son goku is a japanesse name for sun wukong.. just ask your japanesse friend
Who the fuck is cutting onions in my room?
In china,where the story originally was made,he is the most powerful being among all gods.
3:25 Yeeeah, there's my boy...

Vegeta: what is his power level

Vegeta: IMPOSSIBLE
Sun Wukong: that... is an understatement!
That flashback memory 😭😭😭😭😭he really love him❤️❤️❤️
this brought me here because I looked up y wukong suck and now I see its true potential
WhiteCheddarCheese since when does wukong suck
idk
justin idk
it reminds me of when frieza killed krillin and that's when goku went super sayain and this is the exact same thing and when I saw it for the first time at the beginning I cried and at the end I had seen that same rage and hatred to some before and that is why these to would be connected to each other
i cried so hard watching this movie! (but the voice acting was much better in the chinese version)
The only bad voice acting sadly was Jackie Chan... It was like he didn't put any effort to it.... Still love him :D
This scene remind me of the scene from wind guardian another best Chinese animation movie.
damn, that scene stirred some strong emotions.
I always watch this when i was a kid what a nostalgic scene
That cape was legit!!!
Just saw the trailer for the videogame. This looks amazing!
I dang cried at this moment xoxoxo then I was like I love the transformation and that cape yo xooxoxo
did not expect this to become a game
Jesus christ i watched this with teary eyes i was fucking hyped this movie is the shit!
2:10 what song is that called
DeathBattle had nerve to match him up against Hercules🤣
Wukong is truly the Mythical King ! He tops everyone💀
As a normal Chinese kid growing up with some Chinese animation, sun wukong are my childhood crush lollllll. 😂

I play the 7 knights and this movie brings joy to my eyes
