***** JackassJunior627 don't you think that that would've been too predictable? I mean you see it a lot in movies; bad-but-good-guy fighting of the really-really-bad-guy. I dunno. I thought the fight scene with Scroop and Jim was pretty intense. And dont you think its nice how it's not just black and white in Treasure Planet? Like, you see the real people beneath the labels of VILLAIN and HERO; how "heroes" sometimes slip up, and "bad guys" act heroic. Disney doesn't do that often.
+JackassJunior627 He's more of an anti-villain. Plus, the real villain is arguably Nathaniel Flint since his greed is what causes the plot in the first place.
jacoblgames but he's not active in the main plot, not really. It's like, a bunch of Nazis beat a guy up and we say that Hitler is the villain. Okay, maybe not the best example. I do see what you're saying, though; Flint's a real piece of work, he was a problem when he was alive, and a problem in his death.
This hits me so hard, because up until this point Jim has been very independent and innovative on his own. He is aloof and sarcastic, and anxious to prove himself. But then he shows a moment of weakness in front of Silver, literally leaning on him and crying, and you can just see how broken this boy is, and how much Silver means to him as a father figure and friend. It’s true and wonderful.
dont go into a goofy movie expecting this level of emotion. a goofy movie is truly awesome but for different reasons, its a true comedy, it has a bunch of songs and goofy moments, it also has every cliche and qwerk from evey 90s movie, it is not timeless at all. its great but the father son bonding just no
Movies like this really show's the heart of a good person! Something everybody needs to learn how to be. Everybody just doesn't have that kind of heart no more..
eppoif1. or if they remastered it without screwing it up. keeping the original storyline and everything, just modernizing the effects. I think that would be absolutely amazing to see.
Sorell pilgram I think the effects work well enough. The cgi is so flawlessly seamed I never even realized there was cgi until recently watching an editorial. There is this charm that shows through how everyone who worked on it really pulled 200%. I do agree a rerelease would be awesome. Unfortunately I can’t see Disney doing that, unless there was a petition or some convincing that enough people would go see it. I only say that since I’ve only seen Disney rereleasing their most successful films.

The father Jim needed. Long John Silver has to be one of the greatest anti villains in movies. Started as a heartless pirate with one greedy goal, and then became a warm hearted father figure.
Man, I love Silver. This badass, intimidating pirate captain yet incredibly tender and comforting father figure is most certainly one of the best characters Disney has ver adapted in my opinion. He's conflicted (a rare occurrence in animated films) and that's what makes him so great and memorable.
elitadream elitadream then you really should know the real john silver ... the great captain pirate silver ... you can read the book or ... if you want watch that oooooooooold anime show named treausur island ... really you will never regret it ... (well ... for me) ... really just check it ...
as a Pirate captain... he could not shoot at jim when he was fleeing with the map.. and tried to stop crew members to shoot at their's boat.. shouting " don't shoot, we could lose the map" , such an incredible, greedy but lovely char.
I watched Treasure Planet for the first time last night and this scene broke me. I think it’s because we all sometimes get to a point where we feel like screwups. And to have someone believe in us when we don’t, that a luxury most of us don’t have. God this movie is brilliant
@@kayhaych05 i love this movie as well its my favorite disney movie try watching spirit stallion of the cimarron its one of the most beautiful 2d movies ever despite not being disney
Those of us who grew up without fathers often search or stumble upon father figures throughout our lives. MY father was never there. But the relationship Jim and SIlver had is very similar to the one I had with my business teacher. Like Jim i was SO disappointed and came to his office crying, and he sat me down, and gave me the best advice, he was a strict man, but i needed that discipline, he watched over me like a hawk cuz i was quite the rebellious teen. Even though my mother is the best, everyone needs a father figure in their lives, you just can't replace it man.
Its hard not having a dad even harder without someone to guide you my. Great grandfather was my long john always had my back and taught me how tp be a man i miss him and watching this reminds me so much of him
It's funny that this comment is 2+ years old, if you were disappointed in their content back then I can't imagine your pain at the slop they shovel out now.
seems like EVERY "villain" has to be a surprise now... well that was up until like 2020 or so. Now most of the projects just dont even HAVE villains- and the antagonists are hardly antagonists... mostly just symbolic metaphors without amounting to anything touching or memorable.@@breakneck777
To me, this scene defines this film as one of the greatest Disney movies ever made. Whether you're grown up, growing up or even just grown, we can all relate and connect through the powerful emotions presented in the characters. I won't forget this film, and i hope i can show it to my children. For it helped me to discover, not only the wonder and unpredictability of life, but also myself. We can ALL chart our OWN courses! That, was this movie's great inspiration to me, and to us all.
I think it also gives us all hope. As teens or kids we don't know what the future will bring, but we learn that we can choose our future, and we are greater than we realize.
The dramatic irony REALLY paints the beauty in this scene The audience knows silver is "technically" the bad guy But they also know that he has a good heart and wants to support Jim who ironically is standing in the way of his goal This movie is a masterpiece
as much as i love this movie they used deep canvas, cgi, and 2d animation. which cost about 78mil to produce this, so it wasnt cheap or all hand made, but its beautiful
@@taliamason7986 i get what u mean dude but you making it sound like 3d is a peace of cake it really isn't the same amount goes into both don't make comments on things you may not be fully aware of cause that can undermine a lot 3d animators work
@@that_dead_pixel4229 oh, boohoo! I highly doubt any 3d animators give a single F*** about a little RUclips comment. Not once did mat say 3d wasn't hard work, you projected those thoughts yourself. He's saying the artwork/emotional faces made with 2D just hits different. Some might even say it feels more genuine.
When we got to see Silver up in the clouds watching over Jim at the end, it really hit everything home about the Captain. Silver dedicated his life to finding a treasure he longed for. As more wealth is collected for that treasure, the more worth it has. Little did he expect to find the treasure that he needed, and he finally got to catch some of the light that came off it that day.
Brian Murray, the man who voiced Silver passed away this year. He did a wonderful job portraying this character and the soul he put into this scene is something I have not heard in animation in a long time. So may he rest well and thank you for putting so much soul into the scene.
Silver's words ring true; if we are all to achieve our own greatness, we must take the helm and stay our courses. No matter what hazards life may throw at us. Funny how some of the deepest messages often come from animation and film. Rather than the real world
@@mariekano9730 because in reality we are taught to repress our eccentricity. there are limitations to life not seen in fiction, both practical, like not sailing on adventures like this, and articial, that it is deemed inappropriate to behave in an exaggerated manner.
@@sadlobster1 because there are those in our society that want to keep us in line as a machine that fuels themselves and keeps them at the helm of their destiny while they control ours, it's not right and yet it's those who are self made individuals who are better off and happy because they choose to be themselves and not be a collective, being eccentric is what humans are supposed to be we are chaotic beings, and if we tried we can do anything, just like those before us who were born to stay in line CHOSE to escape that and create the betterment of society we live now. We can do it, but we'll never know unless we try even if we fail we can do it again.
I gave this speech to a kid I knew who was going through the same things as James did. I never have been hugged with so much feels as he gave me that day.
***** You got the makings of greatness in ya, but you gotta take the helm and chart your own course! Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes when you really get the chance to test the cut of your sails, and show what you're made of, well... I hope I'm there. Catchin some of the light comin off ya that day.
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. It's a shame that it's so underrated, even in the Disney community. I need people to share these feels with. ;-:
Jims voice actor (joseph gordon levit) did an amazing job conveying the emotions of how jim was feeling. Can you imagine the grief and angry he'd be feeling thinking his screw up got a man killed? Especially if you've had a history of screwing up, and you think that now one of you screw ups got a man killed.
Just couple that with what happens in the aftermath...someone finally gives a damn about your ambitions, and acknowledges trust in your ability to achieve them...even admiration for how far you'll go, stepping into the fatherhood you never had...How do you emote that? How does anyone?
Teo Knigge people like my parents tell me I’m great, or that I have potential. They’ve told me they can’t wait to see what I do. Somehow, I never understood entirely what they meant when they say that. Now, because of this movie, I actually see something in what they say to me. Which, for me, is a huge step. Those words meant so much and I think I cried for like 20 minutes after that scene. I had to pause the movie and take a breather. It was so powerful
+Jason “Built2Last” K And that's the sad thing, Jason. All films today are CGI rendered, not saying it's entirely a bad thing, but the magic of 2D paper / digitally drawn animation will always have this sense of love and happiness that surrounds it- just as it surrounds Treasure Planet. Yeah, animation like this may cost a fortune to produce now-a-days, but it goes without saying that you, I, and many others would enjoy seeing an original 2D Disney or Dreamworks film. (Dreamworks, because "Spirit : Stallion of The Cimmaron" will always hold a special place in my heart. )
I'd like to think all of Flint's crew weren't all murderous blackhearts. Piracy was often a refuge for the downtrodden and hardluck people who couldn't cut an honest trade for reasons. This version of Silver seems like he was one of those types, fell on hard times, became a pirate, lost himself along the way but still had that spark of humanity that was brought back out during the lull between Flint's death and meeting Jim
This version of John Silver didn't personally know Flint though. If he did, he would have known about how the treasure map works, also he would be a few centuries old...
+Jacob dow From what I have read on RUclips, the reason for this film's failure was due to an ill-timed release. The comments I read stated that this film was released while Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings were also present in theaters.
This, I can relate to. I have Asperger's Syndrome and most of the time, it's hard to understand instruction when my thought process is going a million miles an hour. Most of the time, I screw up and beat myself up over it. You just feel like a failure and a burden to anyone around you. It's also when you're too awkward to properly fit into society so, you're left to be by yourself. Sometimes, a little encouragement and a ''things will be okay...Let's make tomorrow a better day,'' is what you need to hear.
I understand this perfectly but from the perspective of Long John Silver as oppose to Jim. My brother was diagnosed with autism when he was three ( I was five at the time). He found communication incredibly difficult and struggled to formulate a full sentence until the age of six, he simply repeated odd words and phrases and spoke in tongues for the most part. My mam told me that when he were both little I would often translate for him and the only person he really talked to at any sort of length was me. He's improved a lot over the years and can speak perfectly to pretty much anyone now, which is great considering he struggled to speak to our parents for the longest time. Now he's going through puberty and he recently started to feel really self conscious about the way he spoke and that he thought he annoyed people, us included, whenever he opened his mouth. I told him that when he was younger none of our family thought they would ever be able to have a conversation with him in the way that we have them with him today, and that every word that he says is a blessing to us, even if we may not always express it openly. Now he's preparing for his GCSE's (I don't know if you're from the UK, but they're basically the tests you do at the end of secondary school that affect your possibilities of getting on certain courses at college or getting job opportunities) and he's really nervous about them. I've told him that it's perfectly fine to feel like that, as it shows he cares (I honestly wish I had cared in the same way when I was at school) and that he should want to be successful, but ultimately his results don't define him. I'd much rather he leave school as a decent person and see him operate productively in the world around him, having tried his best, regardless of the outcome of those tests, than to see him leave having not tried because he thought it futile or to have left with all the qualifications necessary without having the social skills to find his way through college or a workplace. I love my brother and to see how confident he is now fills me with pride, but more importantly it gives me hope that when he leaves school and goes onto college or work he'll be able to operate independently. I can only hope I'll be there so I can catch some of the light coming off him that day.
John O'Phelan I am not based in UK, however, I do know the educational steps for things and how things are done over there. Your brother is very lucky to have good people around him and allow him to be himself. We all make mistakes, as hard as we try, mistakes can happen. You keep trying until you succeed. I don't know much about the social aspect of life (I shut myself off from everyone and stay inside) but, I do excel in being an academic. Having a scholarship, a 3.16 GPA, and a good work ethic, I plan on moving to London in order to attend Queen Mary, University of London. My transfer credits will go through since the university in Nevada works with international schools, Queen Mary, especially. I feel like being a student and continuing education is all I know how to do. With everything else, I fall short. I cannot drive, I don't date (emotional connection cannot be done. That part of my brain is shut off) and being around people heighten my anxiety level.
Don't ever underestimate the power of emotional intelligence. The fact that you're aware of the fact that sometimes your mind is telling you that you are a failure, but its really just that you might have picked up on some ambiguous information incorrectly, has power in itself. Knowing this is a possibility will help you stay grounded when your brain is either wrong or out and out lying to you and will ultimately help you keep your 'own course'. You'll probably find things difficult along the way but nothing worth having ever came easy. True?
Same. Also have Asperger's Syndrome. Generally try to get around those feelings by reminding myself that it's technically not my fault the wiring in my brain is so messed up. Does not always work...if only because I am a rabid perfectionist and hold myself to a very high standard. If I fail it is because I am not trying hard enough. That's what the inner perfectionist keeps yelling at me every time I screw up, at least. The condition runs in my family, oddly enough. I have it. My grandfather has it. One of my cousins has it. According to my grandfather's stories one of *his* grandparents also showed signs of having it though they were never diagnosed. It skips generations. So in my family, at least, there seems to be a genetic component...meaning it REALLY isn't my fault that I'm like this!
No joke...I'm a huge film buff. I've watched classic films and all that stuff and I still think of this as one of my all time favorite movies and this scene is my favorite from it. It's a great movie. I'de even call it a masterpiece!
Silver put up a front when it came to his crew, but the man isn't as evil as he thought he was. I think that's just men in general. When another man, or young man in James' case, comes to you looking for guidance, it's humbling. Some of the realest, most down-to-earth advice I've ever received or given was when someone else came to me in confidence and dropped the front. We're all human. Some of us more than others. But we all need some type of father figure to look up to.
Man... Watching this right now in the middle of a night, all by myself, had to restrain myself from crying. Growing up without a father figure and now as a young adulthood being just... lost and feeling sort of emptiness inside... You really do feel all alone...
Kid, it is ok to cry, it is the body's way of releasing excess emotional energy. No shame in that. Better out then in. Keep going sport you are growing in ways others only dream of going.
I was born in 99’ raised without a father. This movie sums up what it was like. I know exactly how u feel, and for me personally, my Father in Heaven, he did light my way.
@@jongriggs9025 You can't imagine how perfectly timed your comment was. I'm at my lowest right now and your response was exactly what I needed. Thank you so much sir.
@@aavila1206 Good to hear man, happy for you, truly. Though I am not a Christian, yet, it feels like only God can keep me going now, at least I hope so.
I relate to Jim Hawkins much more then some of the female leads. he was leaning into silver since he needs a father figure of some kind. I need a mother, since my life has been going out of control ever since she died. I really just need a female adult figure in my life to help me realize I can actually be bigger then i'm letting on
Hattan AlShutaifi fun fact, they were going to make a 2nd one to this. The director already had the story planned out but, he didn't do it. I don't know why or if he was forced not to do it. I agree though, I loved this movie growing up, it deserves a 2nd part or more love.
I feel like this is one of those Disney movies (if not only) that puts manhood into perspective and reveals what its like to evolve from a young child into a man. The sacrifices, the suffering, the loss and the true bravery it takes to grow up and face the world on your own. Thats what I love about this movie. This scene by itself made me cry, its just so heartbreakingly beautiful!
I first saw this movies when I was about 7. Now I'm 18 and Silver still makes me tear up when I see it. I wish I had a dad that cared about me like he did.
MacyPooh196 It's weird. I was 8 around the time I saw this movie, and it was probably the first movie to make my heart swell, and make me tear up. I think that's why it's still my favorite Disney movie to this day.
ive wanted to see this movie since i was 7.....never got to see it untill i was 18.... im 23 now....This movie never fails to send my heart soaring.....
A year late but apparently in the code for Kingdom hearts DDD there is a non-textured ship from Treasure Planet. You can look it up on youtube. It made me sad that it did not make it in since it is one of the only Disney movies I really like or have fond memories of (all the other ones were too basic or happy to me as a kid, I wanted something that was not 90% smiles and actually made me feel like I was on an adventure.)
If they were considering it for DDD it actually has a decent chance of making it into KH3. I can easily see them working it in. Hell, think how cool it would be to have Balthier and Fran make a cameo in this world, since they are sky pirates after all.
This came out a couple years before I was Jim’s age. A couple years later when we had it on dvd, my younger sister begged me to watch it with her while I was babysitting her. I didn’t want to at first because I was a 15 year old guy and thought I had better things to do. I didn’t know how much I’d relate to the film. Especially Jim. I had been really depressed for several years as a teenager and felt hopeless all the time. My dad left when I 5 and I couldn’t help but blame myself. When I saw this scene, I actually shed a tear because it was what I had always wanted to hear from my dad, or anyone, for that matter. My little sister asked if I was okay and I just claimed that something was in my eye, but this scene really helped me at the time, even though I didn’t even grow up with it.
What makes this even more emotional is that Silver’s voice actor recently passed away, August 20th 2018, not too long before I saw Treasure Planet for my 14th birthday. God rest his soul 🙏🏽
This part makes me cry everytime because my uncle is like silver and he always there for me because my father wasn't there for me and when I was going through rough times my uncle was more a father than my father ever
You know, it's one thing to want a friend like silver to be yours. Though the better thing to do is to be a friend like him to anybody who either needs a friend or needs a lifting of spirit. Think about it. Even the least decent people deserves somebody on their side. :'(
That goes with two of my favorite things to say that kind of go hand in hand. "Just because you hate someone, doesn't mean you have to be mean to them." And "Not everyone can be your friend, but no one has to be your enemy."
Seriously, like, what didn't anyone like about this movie? I saw it when I was younger and had fond memories. When I looked it up more recently, I found bad reviews. Assuming it was nostalgia but still curious, I looked it up and gave it another watch. My opinion of it is as high as ever. Great music, great story, great characters, great animation... like, seriously, what problem did reviewers have with this movie?
+Connor Duquette it's like Daredevil; critics bash the Hell out of the movie, but when you ask them to explain, a lot of their criticisms are REALLY stretches and nitpicks from people WANTING to hate the film.
Fun Facts: Animator Glen Keane drew from real life inspiration when animating Silver's "You've got the makings of greatness in you" speech to Jim. In his words, "I was seventeen years old and I had been fighting for a starting position on the football team as a halfback. And there was another player who was competing for the same position and he was a heck of a lot bigger and the head coach's favorite guy. I worked really hard and I got the starting position on this game and I was very proud of it. The game started and I played three plays and got the ball once. Then the head coach took me out and put the other guy in for the rest of the game. I never played again and I was crushed. As a seventeen-year-old, that's your life. You want your chance to shine. I had it but the coach took it away.
"Now you listen to me James Hawkins. You got the makings of greatness in you. But you've got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show what you're made of! Well, I hope I'm there, catching some of the light coming off you that day. -John Silver We all had a little bit of Jim Hawkins in us.
Like *Sarabi* from *The Lion King*, when she super stretched her neck to grab Simba? XD (I know how old this comment is but I just had to say something).
Coming back to this movie after not seeing it in years, I realized that all Jim really needed was to know that someone believed in him. Success wasn't even what he wanted, he just wanted affirmation.
Every time I see movie adaptations of this story, I always feel like Somewhere along the road before he met Jim, he actually had a family (wife and child/children). Somehow though, he lost it all to piracy. Now he sees this kid who kind of reminds him of his child maybe, and he wants to do it right this time.
What I wouldn’t have given to hear my own father say something like this to me. It’s hard to believe in yourself when the people who made you don’t seem to believe in you at all.
*weeps for the loss of the 2D departments* gaugh, it's so upsetting; Disney was doing so great they were MASTERING the art of 2D animation; no one else has even gotten CLOSE to what they've done. the subtlety of the lines, the careful shifts of expressions and movement of the characters with perspective - GAAHH- we lost so much opportunity when they made the 180 switch to 3D! I mean we have made some good (great) movies with the 3D ones by Disney (Moana, Zootopia, Tangled) but uugghh I can't help but think of what kind of animation we missed out on by eliminating it to the degree they did. any time i see test 2D animations for 3D movies like Frozen or Moana that are floating around, I can't help but feel upset because the characterization with the 2D models is just SO MUCH BETTER; why can't Disney see this? One of the best, most intricate, beautifully animated Disney movies and yet so underrated. Love this movie
The problem is that the public simply wasn't buying it anymore - during this time, all the 2D features from the big studios were tanking and losing money yet the vast majority of their 3D animated movies were making serious bank. I love Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Road to El Dorado, Prince of Egypt... but they were getting destroyed by 3D animation at the box office.
Disney is a shell of its former self at this point. What used to represent creative, heartfelt movies meant to bring joy to people turned into a corporate machine full of corruption, greed and abuse of power. Walt would have been ashamed if he was still alive.
This scene when i was younger sparked something in me to be the greatest me... Im working on it but by golly when i have children im going to tell them to open their ears, heart and mind and make them watch this scene... Every child has the makings of greatness in them! They should be the greatest them and charge their own course, stick to what they want in life no matter what! and when the time comes they gotta show the world what they are made of! Let their light shine bright and warm the hearts of others! i hope im alive when their lights shine bright, warming the rainy miserable UK weather! if not ill be proud, watching in heaven.
+Killjoy45 My dad would do the same. My old man's heard me out so many times, no matter how I felt. His defining moment was when I had to deal with some drama on here a few years ago - a friendship ended rather badly and I felt as though everything was my own doing (it wasn't, thank God - it was about 98% some idiot's fault and 2% mine - the 2% was due to bad timing on my part) and he was outside the door of my room, listening to what I had to say (I didn't want him in there, because I was a wreck). He heard just about everything I had in my mind, and whether what that idiot implied was true - I was a really bad person for letting it happen (I have NO intention of starting fights, and I never will). My father didn't even pry or ask for more details. He just let me continue with what I had to say, gave me time to collect my thoughts and to stop crying. It took me months to recover from what had happened, but my old man hearing me out really helped. Looking back, that idiot made me feel this way, made me feel it was my fault and never even apologized for it. If I did the same thing, I'll be very apologetic very quickly. My biggest issue right now is I always feel horrible if I screw up really bad, try to fix it and it doesn't turn out right, despite my intentions. That is when I start going "I can never do anything right." To have someone hear me out means I'm more likely to banish those thoughts and feel better. My dad was a good father figure. And I'm proud to call him my father.
I used to say this to my girlfriend when she was beating herself up. This is so quotable and I love it and I hope that this speech helps people when they’re down. Like it did for her and like it does for me
The most loveable Disney movie villain. Despite his crimes, deep inside John is a kind person. It also makes me wonder if he had a rough childhood as well and that's why he became a father figure for Jim
+StrasbergProtégé Hawkins always reminded me of Anakin, who was also modeled after James Dean. Which is funny as Attack of the Clones and Treasure Planet came out the same year.
I love this movie.. I always picture Cyborgs words being said to me one day. I'm a lacrosse player who had the chance of going to college to play and I'm surrounded in a place where education isn't valued yet some make dreams and push on through the wet cement that traps our wings. I have failed to play this year due to grades and lacrosse has been my source of happiness and where I felt like I truly belong. Since I failed those who believed in me iv been depressed deep down for the past few days hearing what always doing wrong by my father. My mother wanted a divorce from him and as long as I can remember.. he neglected my emotional needs and now he is trying out of despair to make things right with his adult son going on 18.. I would have been the first grandchild to play a sport in college in a Hispanic family.. and I have failed
I love this movie, my personal favourite of all times, I always cried about Silver's depart, he was like a father to Jim. I don't understand why this movie is underrated
Because it’s mostly men and it’s about a boy learning to grow up and take responsibility as a man it’s very low female cast probably has something to do with it look at Disney who’s always a main character females the one movie that doesn’t have a primary or secondary female character of course it’s gonna give backlash but you know what boys need inspiration too and Disney was right to make this movie and this movie belongs to the boys call me sexist all you want Disney has always made the females the main character the only two I can think of from the 90’s on before 2010 was lion king and treasure planet and also this movie showed a semi accurate depictions of what an average male is like growing up without a father reckless rebellious angry they’ve done deaths for both parents but they actually never showed a parent abandoning their family
I will never understand how this movie wasn't a bigger success. Sure, its a bit of an unusual mix between sci-fi and fantasy, but oh my gosh, if there was one movie that every guy from my generation can relate to, it seems like it would be this one.
apparently, it came out around the same time just as some other movies were released as well. no wonder it didn't do well-the other movies got all the attention.
But you've got to take the helm and chart your own course. And stick to it! No matter the (and I still can't figure out what that word is supposed to be.) And when the time comes that you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show them what your made of. Well, I hope I'm there. Catching some of the light coming off ya that day. ^ Probably my favorite speech ever. I would probably just imitate whatever sound Silver made with whatever that one word is supposed to be.
“You've got the makings of greatness in you, but you've got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it no matter the squalls.” That’s what defines a character. It isn’t what they could be that makes them great, it’s what they do with the potential that does. And that goes for all us in life. I myself hope I can life long enough to do something great, especially my younger brothers and sister.
this scene is so perfect. man. everybody felt this as teenagers- that feeling that you couldn’t do anything right. and having somebody tell you that they believed in you and that you were bound for greatness… it makes me cry every time I watch this scene. 😅
It's a shame Disney didn't follow this advice with Treasure Planet! It has the makings of greatness in it and they canned everything associated with it, including the animation style after its showing at the box office. Only ill timing prevented this from becoming a true classic!
Two years too late, but Disney actually sabotaged the promotion and late development because it was one of, if not the most expensive projects they'd ever had. They didn't want to have to lose that much money on a project again so they ensured its failure.
@@austinkersey2445 They never wanted to make this film to begin with. This was pitched at the same time as The Little Mermaid, but the higher ups told the directors they had to create at least 5 other films before they'd greenlight it. 5 films later and Disney was eager to jump ship to CGI animation, but the directors wanted it to be mostly traditionally animated. So, yeah, they sabotaged the film so they wouldn't have to make a sequel. TBH, I'm glad it didn't get one. The film ended perfectly with the completion of Jim's arc. And they were going to give him a love interest in the sequel, which I really don't want.
Greatest and most moving Disney scene ever. Every now and then, I come here and watch it for inspiration. "Take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls."
And this is the one Disney villain, you don't want to die or stay bad.
Absolutely
***** Exactly and that's why Scroop deserved a more fitting villain role, and an even more descent exit. Scroop should have fought Silver.
***** JackassJunior627
don't you think that that would've been too predictable? I mean you see it a lot in movies; bad-but-good-guy fighting of the really-really-bad-guy. I dunno. I thought the fight scene with Scroop and Jim was pretty intense.
And dont you think its nice how it's not just black and white in Treasure Planet?
Like, you see the real people beneath the labels of VILLAIN and HERO; how "heroes" sometimes slip up, and "bad guys" act heroic. Disney doesn't do that often.
+JackassJunior627 He's more of an anti-villain. Plus, the real villain is arguably Nathaniel Flint since his greed is what causes the plot in the first place.
jacoblgames but he's not active in the main plot, not really. It's like, a bunch of Nazis beat a guy up and we say that Hitler is the villain. Okay, maybe not the best example. I do see what you're saying, though; Flint's a real piece of work, he was a problem when he was alive, and a problem in his death.
"Well, I hope I'm there... Catching some of the light coming of ya that day..."
Tears.
I wanna hug silver and james so bad! 😢😢😢
Ikr :c
Ruby-Lou dahhh, it's all right, Ruby....'s all right.... _hug_
This had me in floods of tears.
RIGHT. Every time.
This hits me so hard, because up until this point Jim has been very independent and innovative on his own. He is aloof and sarcastic, and anxious to prove himself. But then he shows a moment of weakness in front of Silver, literally leaning on him and crying, and you can just see how broken this boy is, and how much Silver means to him as a father figure and friend. It’s true and wonderful.
I got a bit o' grease in the old eye now
@Broly the sarcastic savage Oh Dang, Hope you're doing better 👍
It sucks that, in the next scene, Silver betrays Jim.
Yes yes my friend it is *crying*
Yeah I wish I had something like that.
Jesus allmighty christ. Forget Disney Princesses. We need more like Silver. Disney Father figures.
I am just waiting here for the incredibles 2 :p
True that.
If you liked this movie, chances are, you would love Goofy Movie. Another great father-son bonding movie. ;)
dont go into a goofy movie expecting this level of emotion. a goofy movie is truly awesome but for different reasons, its a true comedy, it has a bunch of songs and goofy moments, it also has every cliche and qwerk from evey 90s movie, it is not timeless at all.
its great but the father son bonding just no
I agree and more characters like Jim too, heartfelt and relasistic,
They need to re-release this in theaters and give it another chance, badly!
Movies like this really show's the heart of a good person! Something everybody needs to learn how to be. Everybody just doesn't have that kind of heart no more..
I truly believe that a second theater release would be box-office gold!
AtariMaxiToriyama Yup!
eppoif1. or if they remastered it without screwing it up. keeping the original storyline and everything, just modernizing the effects. I think that would be absolutely amazing to see.
Sorell pilgram I think the effects work well enough. The cgi is so flawlessly seamed I never even realized there was cgi until recently watching an editorial. There is this charm that shows through how everyone who worked on it really pulled 200%. I do agree a rerelease would be awesome. Unfortunately I can’t see Disney doing that, unless there was a petition or some convincing that enough people would go see it. I only say that since I’ve only seen Disney rereleasing their most successful films.

The father Jim needed. Long John Silver has to be one of the greatest anti villains in movies. Started as a heartless pirate with one greedy goal, and then became a warm hearted father figure.
It seems to be more of a redemption arc than anti-hero.

Man, I love Silver. This badass, intimidating pirate captain yet incredibly tender and comforting father figure is most certainly one of the best characters Disney has ver adapted in my opinion. He's conflicted (a rare occurrence in animated films) and that's what makes him so great and memorable.
elitadream elitadream then you really should know the real john silver ... the great captain pirate silver ... you can read the book or ... if you want watch that oooooooooold anime show named treausur island ... really you will never regret it ... (well ... for me) ... really just check it ...
it is even better in swedish because silver has a gothenburg dialect and its the most comforting thing ever.
Naomi LG I think it's because silver sees a lot of himself in the young lad and was probably in the exact same place when he was jim's age
And the best version of "Long John Silver" in any Treasure Island variation.
as a Pirate captain... he could not shoot at jim when he was fleeing with the map.. and tried to stop crew members to shoot at their's boat.. shouting " don't shoot, we could lose the map" , such an incredible, greedy but lovely char.
The way Jim just plops his head onto Silver is the most adorable thing.
I'll say! I like that part, but I still love that part Baymax and Hiro hugged at the end of Big Hero 6. 💑💑💑💑💑💑💑💑
RobotVeggie98 "nods" Yeah,you're right,and it's so emotional the way Silver hugging Jim to comfort him😊

Same. No matter how many times I rewatch it, buckets everytime.
I watched Treasure Planet for the first time last night and this scene broke me. I think it’s because we all sometimes get to a point where we feel like screwups. And to have someone believe in us when we don’t, that a luxury most of us don’t have. God this movie is brilliant
Beautiful.
@@kayhaych05 i love this movie as well its my favorite disney movie try watching spirit stallion of the cimarron its one of the most beautiful 2d movies ever despite not being disney
how touchingly sad
Those of us who grew up without fathers often search or stumble upon father figures throughout our lives. MY father was never there. But the relationship Jim and SIlver had is very similar to the one I had with my business teacher. Like Jim i was SO disappointed and came to his office crying, and he sat me down, and gave me the best advice, he was a strict man, but i needed that discipline, he watched over me like a hawk cuz i was quite the rebellious teen. Even though my mother is the best, everyone needs a father figure in their lives, you just can't replace it man.

To me, this scene defines this film as one of the greatest Disney movies ever made. Whether you're grown up, growing up or even just grown, we can all relate and connect through the powerful emotions presented in the characters. I won't forget this film, and i hope i can show it to my children. For it helped me to discover, not only the wonder and unpredictability of life, but also myself. We can ALL chart our OWN courses! That, was this movie's great inspiration to me, and to us all.
By far my personal favorite Disney movie. And absolute masterpiece.
Richard C M Slater
Well said!
I think it also gives us all hope. As teens or kids we don't know what the future will bring, but we learn that we can choose our future, and we are greater than we realize.
The dramatic irony REALLY paints the beauty in this scene
The audience knows silver is "technically" the bad guy
But they also know that he has a good heart and wants to support Jim who ironically is standing in the way of his goal
This movie is a masterpiece
seriously.. those emotional faces they can draw with pen and paper.. beat's every animated tool!
That's why it's a sad fact that this movie is underrated. I wish it wouldn't have been realesed at the wrong time at the wrong place
That's what always made 2D animation so special. More hard work and more emotion was always put into it.
as much as i love this movie they used deep canvas, cgi, and 2d animation. which cost about 78mil to produce this, so it wasnt cheap or all hand made, but its beautiful
@@taliamason7986 i get what u mean dude but you making it sound like 3d is a peace of cake it really isn't the same amount goes into both don't make comments on things you may not be fully aware of cause that can undermine a lot 3d animators work
@@that_dead_pixel4229 oh, boohoo! I highly doubt any 3d animators give a single F*** about a little RUclips comment. Not once did mat say 3d wasn't hard work, you projected those thoughts yourself. He's saying the artwork/emotional faces made with 2D just hits different. Some might even say it feels more genuine.
When we got to see Silver up in the clouds watching over Jim at the end, it really hit everything home about the Captain.
Silver dedicated his life to finding a treasure he longed for. As more wealth is collected for that treasure, the more worth it has.
Little did he expect to find the treasure that he needed, and he finally got to catch some of the light that came off it that day.
“Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate.”
I love the relationship between Jim and silver.
Me too I love it too with Jim and sliver
i love the bond they create between them
Jim x Silver❤
Without it this movie just nothing more than another disney movie
miriam kennedy No. Father, son please...just...actually..
I wonder if people wrote fanfictions between the two.
Brian Murray, the man who voiced Silver passed away this year. He did a wonderful job portraying this character and the soul he put into this scene is something I have not heard in animation in a long time. So may he rest well and thank you for putting so much soul into the scene.
Fully agreed
Silver's words ring true; if we are all to achieve our own greatness, we must take the helm and stay our courses. No matter what hazards life may throw at us.
Funny how some of the deepest messages often come from animation and film. Rather than the real world
Amen! I never understood that either.
@@mariekano9730 because in reality we are taught to repress our eccentricity. there are limitations to life not seen in fiction, both practical, like not sailing on adventures like this, and articial, that it is deemed inappropriate to behave in an exaggerated manner.
Maybe that’s why they’re trying to prepare us for what’s to come in this world and how we choose to live it
@@taddad2641 Why would you want to repress eccentricity? This world was built by eccentrics, truth be told
@@sadlobster1 because there are those in our society that want to keep us in line as a machine that fuels themselves and keeps them at the helm of their destiny while they control ours, it's not right and yet it's those who are self made individuals who are better off and happy because they choose to be themselves and not be a collective, being eccentric is what humans are supposed to be we are chaotic beings, and if we tried we can do anything, just like those before us who were born to stay in line CHOSE to escape that and create the betterment of society we live now. We can do it, but we'll never know unless we try even if we fail we can do it again.
I LOVE Silver's speech. He truly was the father Jim never had. I have his speech on my wall, it's truly a wonderful and motivational pick me up!
romancefreak im gonna get that tattoo, i have it on my wall too. my "wonderwall". today im sad as fuck, and this is gold.
I'm planning to write his speech on paper and tape to my wall as well.
The way silver initially puts his arms around him and then just pulls him closer into a hug? Tears.
It's like he's preparing to push him away, only to give in and embrace this kid he's starting to look at as a son.
I cried. I freakin' cried.
T-T
Sibylle Adrienne You need paper towels.
I gave this speech to a kid I knew who was going through the same things as James did. I never have been hugged with so much feels as he gave me that day.

That is really sweet! Did you say with an accent
This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. It's a shame that it's so underrated, even in the Disney community. I need people to share these feels with. ;-:
Yeah, it really is a shame that it's underrated.
I agree with you. This is my little sister's favorite movie.
That's awesome!
Wester Frost Also I say this speech to myself to get me through another day.
Really? That's awesome!
Jims voice actor (joseph gordon levit) did an amazing job conveying the emotions of how jim was feeling. Can you imagine the grief and angry he'd be feeling thinking his screw up got a man killed? Especially if you've had a history of screwing up, and you think that now one of you screw ups got a man killed.
Just couple that with what happens in the aftermath...someone finally gives a damn about your ambitions, and acknowledges trust in your ability to achieve them...even admiration for how far you'll go, stepping into the fatherhood you never had...How do you emote that? How does anyone?
If I ever have a son someday and if he's going through a tough time,this is exactly what I'm gonna say to him
It's always good to have something, but I pray you will never need to use this speech to him. Hopefully, he will always know that you got his back.
When he says "I hope im there, catching some of the light coming off you that day"
water starts comin' from me eye.
Teo Knigge people like my parents tell me I’m great, or that I have potential. They’ve told me they can’t wait to see what I do. Somehow, I never understood entirely what they meant when they say that. Now, because of this movie, I actually see something in what they say to me. Which, for me, is a huge step. Those words meant so much and I think I cried for like 20 minutes after that scene. I had to pause the movie and take a breather. It was so powerful
I love this movie. I also feel it is Very underrated. The animation is stunningly beautiful, good story, great voice actors to boot!
+Jason “Built2Last” K And that's the sad thing, Jason. All films today are CGI rendered, not saying it's entirely a bad thing, but the magic of 2D paper / digitally drawn animation will always have this sense of love and happiness that surrounds it- just as it surrounds Treasure Planet. Yeah, animation like this may cost a fortune to produce now-a-days, but it goes without saying that you, I, and many others would enjoy seeing an original 2D Disney or Dreamworks film. (Dreamworks, because "Spirit : Stallion of The Cimmaron" will always hold a special place in my heart. )
+Jason “Built2Last” K It's not underrated at all. Besides getting a positive reception, it can be found on Blu-ray.
Because it is a ripoff of treasure island
Aka takarajima a 1986 cartoon
+Geometry dash xoran12 its not a ripoff, its a reinturpatation.
I'd like to think all of Flint's crew weren't all murderous blackhearts. Piracy was often a refuge for the downtrodden and hardluck people who couldn't cut an honest trade for reasons. This version of Silver seems like he was one of those types, fell on hard times, became a pirate, lost himself along the way but still had that spark of humanity that was brought back out during the lull between Flint's death and meeting Jim
This version of John Silver didn't personally know Flint though. If he did, he would have known about how the treasure map works, also he would be a few centuries old...
Movies like this masterpiece, flop, while Twilight becomes a billionaire dollar franchise. ..How does that even work??
+Jacob dow
From what I have read on RUclips, the reason for this film's failure was due to an ill-timed release. The comments I read stated that this film was released while Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings were also present in theaters.
Agreed! It's so tragic when scenes like this from movies go unnoticed!

teenage angst
I think it was bad timing. This move came out a year after 9/11 and people were in a different state of mind
This, I can relate to.
I have Asperger's Syndrome and most of the time, it's hard to understand instruction when my thought process is going a million miles an hour. Most of the time, I screw up and beat myself up over it. You just feel like a failure and a burden to anyone around you. It's also when you're too awkward to properly fit into society so, you're left to be by yourself.
Sometimes, a little encouragement and a ''things will be okay...Let's make tomorrow a better day,'' is what you need to hear.
I understand this perfectly but from the perspective of Long John Silver as oppose to Jim. My brother was diagnosed with autism when he was three ( I was five at the time). He found communication incredibly difficult and struggled to formulate a full sentence until the age of six, he simply repeated odd words and phrases and spoke in tongues for the most part. My mam told me that when he were both little I would often translate for him and the only person he really talked to at any sort of length was me. He's improved a lot over the years and can speak perfectly to pretty much anyone now, which is great considering he struggled to speak to our parents for the longest time.
Now he's going through puberty and he recently started to feel really self conscious about the way he spoke and that he thought he annoyed people, us included, whenever he opened his mouth. I told him that when he was younger none of our family thought they would ever be able to have a conversation with him in the way that we have them with him today, and that every word that he says is a blessing to us, even if we may not always express it openly.
Now he's preparing for his GCSE's (I don't know if you're from the UK, but they're basically the tests you do at the end of secondary school that affect your possibilities of getting on certain courses at college or getting job opportunities) and he's really nervous about them. I've told him that it's perfectly fine to feel like that, as it shows he cares (I honestly wish I had cared in the same way when I was at school) and that he should want to be successful, but ultimately his results don't define him. I'd much rather he leave school as a decent person and see him operate productively in the world around him, having tried his best, regardless of the outcome of those tests, than to see him leave having not tried because he thought it futile or to have left with all the qualifications necessary without having the social skills to find his way through college or a workplace.
I love my brother and to see how confident he is now fills me with pride, but more importantly it gives me hope that when he leaves school and goes onto college or work he'll be able to operate independently.
I can only hope I'll be there so I can catch some of the light coming off him that day.
John O'Phelan I am not based in UK, however, I do know the educational steps for things and how things are done over there. Your brother is very lucky to have good people around him and allow him to be himself. We all make mistakes, as hard as we try, mistakes can happen. You keep trying until you succeed.
I don't know much about the social aspect of life (I shut myself off from everyone and stay inside) but, I do excel in being an academic. Having a scholarship, a 3.16 GPA, and a good work ethic, I plan on moving to London in order to attend Queen Mary, University of London. My transfer credits will go through since the university in Nevada works with international schools, Queen Mary, especially.
I feel like being a student and continuing education is all I know how to do. With everything else, I fall short. I cannot drive, I don't date (emotional connection cannot be done. That part of my brain is shut off) and being around people heighten my anxiety level.
Don't ever underestimate the power of emotional intelligence. The fact that you're aware of the fact that sometimes your mind is telling you that you are a failure, but its really just that you might have picked up on some ambiguous information incorrectly, has power in itself. Knowing this is a possibility will help you stay grounded when your brain is either wrong or out and out lying to you and will ultimately help you keep your 'own course'. You'll probably find things difficult along the way but nothing worth having ever came easy. True?
I also have Asperger's Syndrome.
Same. Also have Asperger's Syndrome. Generally try to get around those feelings by reminding myself that it's technically not my fault the wiring in my brain is so messed up. Does not always work...if only because I am a rabid perfectionist and hold myself to a very high standard. If I fail it is because I am not trying hard enough. That's what the inner perfectionist keeps yelling at me every time I screw up, at least.
The condition runs in my family, oddly enough. I have it. My grandfather has it. One of my cousins has it. According to my grandfather's stories one of *his* grandparents also showed signs of having it though they were never diagnosed. It skips generations. So in my family, at least, there seems to be a genetic component...meaning it REALLY isn't my fault that I'm like this!
I think we've all been in Jim's shoes in one point or other of our lives. That's why this scene hit really close to home.
Something tells me silver saw a part of himself there, when Jim was so depressed.
Yeah 💔 In fact, if you look hard, they're *really* very similar, and their relationship and growth are even more beautiful for that too
✨💜
No joke...I'm a huge film buff. I've watched classic films and all that stuff and I still think of this as one of my all time favorite movies and this scene is my favorite from it. It's a great movie. I'de even call it a masterpiece!
I'm not crying I just have an extremely touching father/son relationship development in my eye
HOW IN THE HELL WAS THIS A BOX OFFICE FLOP
I think it didn't have the best promotion, and there were many popular movies that were released the same year
Lilo and stitch came out that same time so there you go lol
Not enough princesses and insufferable love stories.
Came out the same week as the second Harry Potter movie.
Disney needed an excuse to leave drawing animation
Silver put up a front when it came to his crew, but the man isn't as evil as he thought he was. I think that's just men in general. When another man, or young man in James' case, comes to you looking for guidance, it's humbling. Some of the realest, most down-to-earth advice I've ever received or given was when someone else came to me in confidence and dropped the front. We're all human. Some of us more than others. But we all need some type of father figure to look up to.
I love how jim is such a relating character. I also love how this movie show love. Like not "romantic" love but parenting love
Such a beautiful pick me up in his speech, a thank you to the fathers who raised and helped us during troubled times.

Kid, it is ok to cry, it is the body's way of releasing excess emotional energy. No shame in that. Better out then in. Keep going sport you are growing in ways others only dream of going.

I relate to Jim Hawkins much more then some of the female leads. he was leaning into silver since he needs a father figure of some kind. I need a mother, since my life has been going out of control ever since she died. I really just need a female adult figure in my life to help me realize I can actually be bigger then i'm letting on

Kingdom hearts fan 344 yes that is sequel I wanted also silver appearing in sequel
I feel like this is one of those Disney movies (if not only) that puts manhood into perspective and reveals what its like to evolve from a young child into a man. The sacrifices, the suffering, the loss and the true bravery it takes to grow up and face the world on your own. Thats what I love about this movie. This scene by itself made me cry, its just so heartbreakingly beautiful!
Anyone rewinds this for hundreds of thousands of times?
I first saw this movies when I was about 7. Now I'm 18 and Silver still makes me tear up when I see it. I wish I had a dad that cared about me like he did.

MacyPooh196 Don't worry,man..You will...
This needs to make it to kingdom hearts 3
Ethan Solorzano maybe sora has daddy issues too lol
A year late but apparently in the code for Kingdom hearts DDD there is a non-textured ship from Treasure Planet. You can look it up on youtube. It made me sad that it did not make it in since it is one of the only Disney movies I really like or have fond memories of (all the other ones were too basic or happy to me as a kid, I wanted something that was not 90% smiles and actually made me feel like I was on an adventure.)
Ethan Solorzano agreed
It may failed at box office, but the reviews are great
If they were considering it for DDD it actually has a decent chance of making it into KH3. I can easily see them working it in. Hell, think how cool it would be to have Balthier and Fran make a cameo in this world, since they are sky pirates after all.
The way I see this movie is that. Jim needed a Dad and John a Son.
*Exactly* ✨💜
This came out a couple years before I was Jim’s age. A couple years later when we had it on dvd, my younger sister begged me to watch it with her while I was babysitting her. I didn’t want to at first because I was a 15 year old guy and thought I had better things to do. I didn’t know how much I’d relate to the film. Especially Jim. I had been really depressed for several years as a teenager and felt hopeless all the time. My dad left when I 5 and I couldn’t help but blame myself. When I saw this scene, I actually shed a tear because it was what I had always wanted to hear from my dad, or anyone, for that matter. My little sister asked if I was okay and I just claimed that something was in my eye, but this scene really helped me at the time, even though I didn’t even grow up with it.
To this day I’m pissed that we never got the sequel
This doesn't need a sequel, but a live action instead.
What makes this even more emotional is that Silver’s voice actor recently passed away, August 20th 2018, not too long before I saw Treasure Planet for my 14th birthday. God rest his soul 🙏🏽
On that day, my canary bird died, too. :(
Silver sure made a great father for Jim.
I agree with you
This part makes me cry everytime because my uncle is like silver and he always there for me because my father wasn't there for me and when I was going through rough times my uncle was more a father than my father ever
Im sorry dude but I'm glad u had someone to look after you
This speech is gorgeous.
You know, it's one thing to want a friend like silver to be yours. Though the better thing to do is to be a friend like him to anybody who either needs a friend or needs a lifting of spirit. Think about it. Even the least decent people deserves somebody on their side. :'(
That goes with two of my favorite things to say that kind of go hand in hand.
"Just because you hate someone, doesn't mean you have to be mean to them."
And
"Not everyone can be your friend, but no one has to be your enemy."
Seriously, like, what didn't anyone like about this movie? I saw it when I was younger and had fond memories. When I looked it up more recently, I found bad reviews. Assuming it was nostalgia but still curious, I looked it up and gave it another watch. My opinion of it is as high as ever. Great music, great story, great characters, great animation... like, seriously, what problem did reviewers have with this movie?
+Connor Duquette it's like Daredevil; critics bash the Hell out of the movie, but when you ask them to explain, a lot of their criticisms are REALLY stretches and nitpicks from people WANTING to hate the film.
those people have no TASTE.
And also the marketing was crap, you should check "BROADSWORDs" video on it, and I just realised this comment is 4 years old XD
Fun Facts:
Animator Glen Keane drew from real life inspiration when animating Silver's "You've got the makings of greatness in you" speech to Jim. In his words, "I was seventeen years old and I had been fighting for a starting position on the football team as a halfback. And there was another player who was competing for the same position and he was a heck of a lot bigger and the head coach's favorite guy. I worked really hard and I got the starting position on this game and I was very proud of it. The game started and I played three plays and got the ball once. Then the head coach took me out and put the other guy in for the rest of the game. I never played again and I was crushed. As a seventeen-year-old, that's your life. You want your chance to shine. I had it but the coach took it away.
I love hearing this it makes me wish I had a father like silver
Vera Boukhonine I feel the same way too.
Be a parent like Silver. It much more rewarding in the end.
"Now you listen to me James Hawkins. You got the makings of greatness in you. But you've got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show what you're made of! Well, I hope I'm there, catching some of the light coming off you that day. -John Silver
We all had a little bit of Jim Hawkins in us.
Is this movie related to the book? Cuz in the book Jim is scared of Silver and they made Solver look like a bad guy
I wish Silver didn't have to leave Jim. He was the best dad to him
Not really, more like a really nice friend
Skyfaller3D
That too
I fucking love this movie
Good bless you you old cyborg.
soooo underrated.
0:46 Silver must have a really long arm to grab Jim from that distance
Hydroxoid Lol XD
I never noticed that before hahahah
+Hydroxoid Eagles eye
nice one xD
Like *Sarabi* from *The Lion King*, when she super stretched her neck to grab Simba? XD (I know how old this comment is but I just had to say something).
Technicolour Scribbler Disney Physics lol
i love this part of the movie! it's so truly and right, no matter how old this movie is it still be one of my best movies.
Coming back to this movie after not seeing it in years, I realized that all Jim really needed was to know that someone believed in him. Success wasn't even what he wanted, he just wanted affirmation.
Every time I see movie adaptations of this story, I always feel like Somewhere along the road before he met Jim, he actually had a family (wife and child/children). Somehow though, he lost it all to piracy. Now he sees this kid who kind of reminds him of his child maybe, and he wants to do it right this time.
I missed when Disney used to be this. No parent will deny that THIS was the perfect kind of messaging
What I wouldn’t have given to hear my own father say something like this to me. It’s hard to believe in yourself when the people who made you don’t seem to believe in you at all.
*weeps for the loss of the 2D departments* gaugh, it's so upsetting; Disney was doing so great they were MASTERING the art of 2D animation; no one else has even gotten CLOSE to what they've done. the subtlety of the lines, the careful shifts of expressions and movement of the characters with perspective - GAAHH- we lost so much opportunity when they made the 180 switch to 3D! I mean we have made some good (great) movies with the 3D ones by Disney (Moana, Zootopia, Tangled) but uugghh I can't help but think of what kind of animation we missed out on by eliminating it to the degree they did. any time i see test 2D animations for 3D movies like Frozen or Moana that are floating around, I can't help but feel upset because the characterization with the 2D models is just SO MUCH BETTER; why can't Disney see this?
One of the best, most intricate, beautifully animated Disney movies and yet so underrated. Love this movie
Joelle Hale 3D animation is cheaper, unfortunately Disney only wants money, so they don't care about 2D animation anymore.
The problem is that the public simply wasn't buying it anymore - during this time, all the 2D features from the big studios were tanking and losing money yet the vast majority of their 3D animated movies were making serious bank. I love Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Road to El Dorado, Prince of Egypt... but they were getting destroyed by 3D animation at the box office.
AJR 1986 man I miss 2D and hand draw animation in old days
Disney is a shell of its former self at this point. What used to represent creative, heartfelt movies meant to bring joy to people turned into a corporate machine full of corruption, greed and abuse of power. Walt would have been ashamed if he was still alive.
This scene when i was younger sparked something in me to be the greatest me... Im working on it but by golly when i have children im going to tell them to open their ears, heart and mind and make them watch this scene... Every child has the makings of greatness in them! They should be the greatest them and charge their own course, stick to what they want in life no matter what! and when the time comes they gotta show the world what they are made of! Let their light shine bright and warm the hearts of others! i hope im alive when their lights shine bright, warming the rainy miserable UK weather! if not ill be proud, watching in heaven.
I never realised, but that's pretty much how my father would act...god, I love him!
Lucky
Ron Y. same. Xxx
+Killjoy45 My dad would do the same.
My old man's heard me out so many times, no matter how I felt. His defining moment was when I had to deal with some drama on here a few years ago - a friendship ended rather badly and I felt as though everything was my own doing (it wasn't, thank God - it was about 98% some idiot's fault and 2% mine - the 2% was due to bad timing on my part) and he was outside the door of my room, listening to what I had to say (I didn't want him in there, because I was a wreck). He heard just about everything I had in my mind, and whether what that idiot implied was true - I was a really bad person for letting it happen (I have NO intention of starting fights, and I never will). My father didn't even pry or ask for more details. He just let me continue with what I had to say, gave me time to collect my thoughts and to stop crying.
It took me months to recover from what had happened, but my old man hearing me out really helped. Looking back, that idiot made me feel this way, made me feel it was my fault and never even apologized for it. If I did the same thing, I'll be very apologetic very quickly.
My biggest issue right now is I always feel horrible if I screw up really bad, try to fix it and it doesn't turn out right, despite my intentions. That is when I start going "I can never do anything right." To have someone hear me out means I'm more likely to banish those thoughts and feel better.
My dad was a good father figure. And I'm proud to call him my father.
@@PRT95 Lucky you. My Dad isn't as inspirational as yours is unfortunately. But God bless you and ur father.
I used to say this to my girlfriend when she was beating herself up. This is so quotable and I love it and I hope that this speech helps people when they’re down. Like it did for her and like it does for me
The most loveable Disney movie villain. Despite his crimes, deep inside John is a kind person. It also makes me wonder if he had a rough childhood as well and that's why he became a father figure for Jim
this is a father son moment
0:25 - 0:40
The fact that they based Jim Hawkins on James Dean is clearly evidenced here
+StrasbergProtégé Hawkins always reminded me of Anakin, who was also modeled after James Dean. Which is funny as Attack of the Clones and Treasure Planet came out the same year.
At 1:51 Silver's like "Oh shit. I have feelings. I'm a bad pirate!"
@Olivija Strandjord You might be right about that I guess Silver ain't so bad after all
@Olivija Strandjord I know that
Seven years ago I had just started highschool!!!!! I do not remember making this comment
😂😂😂😂😂
I love this movie.. I always picture Cyborgs words being said to me one day. I'm a lacrosse player who had the chance of going to college to play and I'm surrounded in a place where education isn't valued yet some make dreams and push on through the wet cement that traps our wings. I have failed to play this year due to grades and lacrosse has been my source of happiness and where I felt like I truly belong. Since I failed those who believed in me iv been depressed deep down for the past few days hearing what always doing wrong by my father. My mother wanted a divorce from him and as long as I can remember.. he neglected my emotional needs and now he is trying out of despair to make things right with his adult son going on 18.. I would have been the first grandchild to play a sport in college in a Hispanic family.. and I have failed
This movie is so underrated. Still today my fav disney movie!
I always wondered if Silver had a son he lost at some point. “You give up a few things, chasing a dream.”
Kristian Fischer I’ve always that too.
I love this movie, my personal favourite of all times, I always cried about Silver's depart, he was like a father to Jim.
I don't understand why this movie is underrated
Because it’s mostly men and it’s about a boy learning to grow up and take responsibility as a man it’s very low female cast probably has something to do with it look at Disney who’s always a main character females the one movie that doesn’t have a primary or secondary female character of course it’s gonna give backlash but you know what boys need inspiration too and Disney was right to make this movie and this movie belongs to the boys call me sexist all you want Disney has always made the females the main character the only two I can think of from the 90’s on before 2010 was lion king and treasure planet and also this movie showed a semi accurate depictions of what an average male is like growing up without a father reckless rebellious angry they’ve done deaths for both parents but they actually never showed a parent abandoning their family
I will never understand how this movie wasn't a bigger success. Sure, its a bit of an unusual mix between sci-fi and fantasy, but oh my gosh, if there was one movie that every guy from my generation can relate to, it seems like it would be this one.
apparently, it came out around the same time just as some other movies were released as well. no wonder it didn't do well-the other movies got all the attention.
Simple: the second Harry Potter movie came out that same month so everyone rushed there instead
Blackguy Walsh how sad...:(
You just hit the mark my man. (Give you a thumbs up with a tear in me eye)
Blackguy Walsh Coincidentally, that's my favorite of the Harry Potter movies.
you got the makings of greatness in ya! omgeeee love this scene so much!
But you've got to take the helm and chart your own course. And stick to it! No matter the (and I still can't figure out what that word is supposed to be.) And when the time comes that you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show them what your made of. Well, I hope I'm there. Catching some of the light coming off ya that day.
^ Probably my favorite speech ever. I would probably just imitate whatever sound Silver made with whatever that one word is supposed to be.
your awesome > w
Brenden Pischke he said "squals"
Brenden Pischke he said "squals"
Never heard that word before so I wouldn't know.
Here's to all the people watching this in the new year of 2024.... Still one of the best things Disney has ever made
“You've got the makings of greatness in you, but you've got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it no matter the squalls.”
That’s what defines a character. It isn’t what they could be that makes them great, it’s what they do with the potential that does. And that goes for all us in life. I myself hope I can life long enough to do something great, especially my younger brothers and sister.
I wish I had someone who would give a speech like this to me.
Someone just did. You may not have known it, Silver may not have known it, but he was talking to you as well as Jim.
Nietzsche's Heir that’s why I love animated movies the characters always speak to the audience
Silver was a father figure to Jim. That's why this scene is so heart pulling the way it is
this scene is so perfect. man. everybody felt this as teenagers- that feeling that you couldn’t do anything right. and having somebody tell you that they believed in you and that you were bound for greatness… it makes me cry every time I watch this scene. 😅
Golly...the moment when Silver hugs Jim and the music sounds like a lullaby...brought tears to my eyes. This movie is so underrated.
I choke up every time I watch this.
It's a shame Disney didn't follow this advice with Treasure Planet! It has the makings of greatness in it and they canned everything associated with it, including the animation style after its showing at the box office. Only ill timing prevented this from becoming a true classic!
Two years too late, but Disney actually sabotaged the promotion and late development because it was one of, if not the most expensive projects they'd ever had. They didn't want to have to lose that much money on a project again so they ensured its failure.
@@austinkersey2445 They never wanted to make this film to begin with. This was pitched at the same time as The Little Mermaid, but the higher ups told the directors they had to create at least 5 other films before they'd greenlight it.
5 films later and Disney was eager to jump ship to CGI animation, but the directors wanted it to be mostly traditionally animated. So, yeah, they sabotaged the film so they wouldn't have to make a sequel.
TBH, I'm glad it didn't get one. The film ended perfectly with the completion of Jim's arc. And they were going to give him a love interest in the sequel, which I really don't want.
Greatest and most moving Disney scene ever. Every now and then, I come here and watch it for inspiration.
"Take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls."
I just found out that Brian Murray was born in South Africa(like me) and just passed away this year in August.
