I am a 48 yr old American male. Paddington 2 is the exact type of movie I wish would flood this country. A real hero with real impact upon the people around him. And a villain that is completely human and still just plain wrong.
Amen
One of my favourite things about these movies, is that the original books were pretty nakedly about the evacuation of British children from major cities during WWII. Often with little more than a name tag and a suitcase, 3.5 million people, mostly children, were evacuated. They were usually separated from their parents and taken in by complete strangers. By taking this event, of which most Britons are justifiably proud, and tying it to the plight of foreign children, who need a home and safe harbour, Paddington makes this deft and persuasive political point. My own grandfather may not have survived the war had he not been taken in and kept safe from Nazi aerial bombing during the blitz, and to see rich countries turn away children who face the same threat, it's abhorrent.
Well said, Alex: completely agree. We are proud of the evacuation efforts conducted in WW2, and there are millions of us who are horrified by the continued rise of anti-immigrant hysteria here in Britain in the 21st century.
As an American, all I can say is, um........................................................
@@tatehildyard5332
Ummm what?
@@IkeOkerekeNews I’m American and we’ve got our own anti-Immigrant stuff going that I’m really not a fan of either. My original comment was also made when ICE and the kid cages stuff was just hitting the news.
Your parents are delightful :)
Patrick explains is my new favorite tv show
Blizzic it's not a tv show because it's not on tv
Scrambled 59 FITE ME!!!!!
wow, you're so smart!
I wish he'd bring it back
Watching your parents’ acting improve with each video is absolutely delightful.
Paddington 2 is one of the best movies Ive ever seen. I love every single second of it.
Patrick's Mum needs her own show.
InnerPartisan yeah, she is adorable, and always game
Is his mum British?
Irish more like
She is very sweet, though I imagine she has a touch of the Mrs Doyle about her when it comes to tea!
Whereas some of us are more like Father Jack ;)
Really adorable...oh and the movie is good too.
This is my favorite series on your channel please don't stop doing it, and your parents reactions are always hilarious
Please give your mum a kiss for me. I freakin' ADORE her!
Paddington bear is my shit. I know the movies are for kids but I think they teach children good lessons.
"Paddington Bear is my shit" :D
I don't think he would like this language tho
i don't think they're just "for kids". I went to the cinema for the second one and I think I was the one who laughed the loudest ... and I'm 27! XD
They're definitely not just "for kids", they're "family films": i.e., for the whole family
I'm middle aged, and I dimly remember Paddington. I have, since those days, always had a fondness for marmalade.
Your parents steal the show every time.
As a Brit, it's nice to see Paddington and Boosh get some love from across the pond. You should check out BUNNY AND THE BULL by Paul King too
H.D Beird We fell in love with it because it’s everything our current culture is not. It’s about kindness and sincere empathy and against cynicism and tribalism.
Those folks you see on Twitter acting edgy could very well secretly be softhearted and just afraid to express that online.
I just saw paddington 1 a week ago and absolutely loved it. I am from costa rica and this is one of the most wholesome movies i have seen. I will check out that bunny
lol your dad is so done with your crap haha!!!!
Can the next episode be your dad fed up and ranting about HIS favourite movie while drinking whiskey?
World Wide Wong Patrick make this happen!!!!!!
When his dad drained his glass I thought he was about to drop a line to tease that!
That'd be awesome!
Uh-huh...
Hahaha
We were going to go and watch Infinity War this afternoon... but now we just want to watch both Paddington films! This is such a delightful video!
You should check out Infinity War as well. The extreme opposite but extremely good
I love when your parents show up in an episode. Let’s have a video “Patrick’s Parents and Why They’re Great” except that concept is probably too awesome.
Oh my God you saying “Mum” like us English people over here was the cutest thing 😂
Jake MacDonagh I guess mum's the word.
Hahaha I didn't realise he was doing it deliberately. It sounds so jarring against his American accent.
Patrick, Parents, AND Paddington? I clicked this video very quickly.
Great work.
There is so much clever stuff in this!
My favourite is how you switch to tea (a tea totaller) after an intervention, which is a British thing, and you review a British film. And in the end, it's your dad who starts drinking
spinakker tea after an intervention is an Irish thing as his mother is irish
Your parents absolutely killed it in this one, and the punchline might be the most clever joke I've ever seen in your videos. I'm loving this new format. Keep up the great work.
This series is a delight. Thank you and your parents for being such lovely people.
It's impossible to articulate how good Hugh Grant is in Paddington 2. The scene where he's talking to the mannequins is my favourite! Great video :)
Kudos to your parents for these shorts. Their reactions makes these clips really something I am looking forward to see very time
My son, a movie buff, ran the kitchen at Skinners Guildhall where some of the scenes were shot and so bumped in to Jim Broadbent and others in the cast. He was soooo star struck.
As a Brit, I love these movies. What, I’m partial to movies of my nationality. I also love the magical feel of this movie. It presents London as this delightfully offbeat place, just filled to the brim with all these quirky characters played by great British actors and/or comedians. Films like these are... well British. You can see this film... and you’ll think Britain. To that effect, it’s to kids movies what Good Omens is to comedy, which was built off Christianity, but it’s really just religiously English.
I have drunkenly given this rant almost word for word to many friends and family members over the years. So nice to find this and feel validated 👍
Patrick your mom is great actress, i think your parents is getting better at this.
This entire video is just so precious to me, even as someone who has never seen the Paddington movies. I recently spent a semester in England and everything about this just brought back good happy memories of my time there, so thank you for making this. I think now I’ll have to go find these movies in America. Also, please make sure your mom knows she is an absolute delight and an all around gem
Update: I just watched the first Paddington movie and it's just so good and pure and happy. Thank you for doing this episode because it got me to watch this movie and my life is better for it
Flora Carmine Paddington 2 is even better!
I guess you could call your mother Lady MarmaWAIT NO I DIDN'T THINK THIS THROUGH DEFINITELY DO NOT CALL HER THAT
Your Mom is so adorable. She and your Dad act so clueless most of the time but the way her face lights up when you mention Paddington is priceless! I actually ended up buying the movies because of your review.
Holy fuck... I love Paddington. But dude how have I never noticed your mom is Irish until this video?
The smell of whiskey brings it out in her.
Probably sounded North Central (think Minnasohhhhhtah) until the booze loosened up the brogue a bit.
I only just realised his dad wasn't Irish
It's a retcon. The mom from previous episodes wanted too much money, so they replaced her with a new mom and used the opportunity to develop the mom character's backstory by making her Irish.
This is the best episode yet, and your parents' performances are fantastic! I laughed so hard at the "Ride or Die" line.
This series just keeps getting better! Aaaaaand now I’m off to watch some Very Nice Bear movies.
When ever people ask me what my favorite movie of 2017 is, they always expect me to say Star wars or a Marvel film. But the answers is in fact Paddington 2, most the time they think i'm joking because i'm such a film buff going to see every new release, but that's the honest answer. Such an amazing movie.
xXMinniNinJaXx same (but 2018 for me because I just saw it recently), people think I'm being sarcastic but I genuinely think it's one of the best sequels in recent years.
Paddington 2 (since it came out here in January) totally deserves a favorite film of the year. Mine was Baby Driver for last year. Paddington 2 was fantastic and beautiful.
I'm always down for a tangent about whether or not Peter Capaldi is the best doctor. Or really any tangent about Doctor Who.
if he was given better material then yes a modern Colin Baker if you will
Tennant 4 Lyfe
i can never fully see eye to eye with people who know him as the doctor.
he was a good doctor
but he'll always be Malcolm Tucker to me xD
Isn't it weird that we've never gotten a story involving the Silurians and the Ice Warriors? Sorry, just a tangent
The bear that made Twitter agree about something, hat's off chap.
God bless Irish Mammies- always ready with a cuppa tea.
the paddington series needs to be required viewing for all us and uk children
I will have my kid watch these instant classics.
Gosh, your mom is so sweet and yes these movies are remarkable
Grew up with the Paddington cartoon show and have the fondest of memories of Paddington. One of my favourite memories of visiting the UK was when I stumbled upon Paddington Station and the Paddington statue. Was always afraid of watching the movie, but videos like this talked me into it and I'm so glad the essence of Paddington was preserved
Patrick this video was awesome. Paddington 2 was absolutely one of the best movies I have ever ever seen (particularly released in the last few years). You perfectly explained why.
I would fight anyone who disagrees with you but.... It isn't what Aunt Lucy would want.
Your parents seem like they're a lot of fun. Love this series man!
Had no clue Paddington was a quality movie lol
The pop-up-book animations are a nod to the animated tv series of Paddington that aired on British tv from 1976-1980, narrated by Michael Hordern. It had a really distinctive style, and is much-loved.
I am British, allow me to explain the coconut thing:
In British funfairs we have these things called a Coconut Shy - You get a couple balls and you throw them at coconuts to try and knock them down, for the chance of winning a goldfish or something. We do not throw coconuts around, don't be daft.
Funnily enough I once won a huge bear the size of Paddington bear, at a coconut shy, when I was a kid. It was because I managed to crack the coconut, which was harder than just knocking it off, and you got a better prize if you did that. I've no idea where that bear has gone, but it was 20+ years ago now.
I love your parents, I can't wait for more of the story with your parents.
I've never seen these movies before. I wrote them off for the exact reasons you described at the beginning of your video. I will now add them to my list of films to watch. Thanks Patrick!
Great dynamics between characters
Carmichael You are the nicest dude
These movies are literally the quintessential family experiences and the best part is anyone can enjoy them. The comedy, style, setting, tone and acting is all exaggerated but still kept small so you can feel immersed in this world. All of the characters have a brilliant dynamic that you RARELY see in kids films or really anything nowadays so it's really BRILLIANT that something like Paddington exists for children and adults. Also, the greatest scene in the second movie has to be Paddington and Knuckles meeting for the first time and their relationship. If you haven't seen it already, what are you doing with your life???
I haven't seen the Paddington films, but fondly remember the 1970s TV series. Those bits with the pop-up book look like a nod to the TV show, in that Paddington himself was an animated furry model bear, but all the human characters were animated cardboard cut-outs that looked like they had come from a pop-up book, and the backgrounds were done in similar style.
Serious props on your recent run of videos man. You said you wanted to do something original with the video essay format, and you did. It's still informative and insightful, while being entertaining and engaging in and of itself. Really well done. Now I need to go actually watch Paddington.
Hear hear!
Thank you SO much for making this video on Paddington! I remember watching the Nelvana animated series and the stop-motion animated series as a child, and I think the two Paddington films are a heartfelt adaptation that keeps in the spirit of the original books.
I wish all talking animal hybrid films were this well constructed. Great use of set up and pay off.
Glad to hear more praise for one of my favourite films! Really nice to see your parents enjoying being part of the fun too. Looking forward to the next instalment!
The drinking and your parents are by far my favourite parts of this series. Your folks are hilarious!
Sorry, i had to stop you video at the 6 min mark... I havent seen Paddington yet and you make me want to do it now with no more spoilers. Be right back
I’m so pleased
Not to diminish your Dad's contribution... but your Mum is insanely charismatic. Find her an agent, pronto!
You've put your finger on why I like the Paddington movies so much (well, that and the fact that I've loved the character since they ran the shorts on Nickelodeon's Pinwheel)...unlike so many other kids'/family movies, they don't try to be self-consciously KEWL. (The Peanuts movie is the same, despite a pop song or two being in there.)
This is where this series really became what it is today, bravo
Patrick Explains is THE best. Patrick’s parents are the best.
Holy F**k. If there’s an equivalent of a Roger Ebert doing a Dark City dvd, you’re the multimedia version of a dissection & comparison & passion and always wanting to do more. You, sir, are one of the most respected opinions on the Internets. And you’re relevant & your parents are a national treasure.
Love this series, and I'm glad you guys enjoy making it!
Best video you've done yet! Super heartwarming video.
I love how happy youre mum is to talk about it Paddington
I loved this so much. Seeing clips of this honestly made me tear up, especially as Paddington 2 made me cry. You earned yourself a new subscriber.
PS: Your parents are beautiful.
Patrick I love your parents soooooo much!!!
everything about this is a blessing to watch thanku for making this series!!!!
Paddington 2 is so incredible that I can barely label how I feel about it. Kind of that inexplicable emotion that happens when you are so moved by a piece of art that it makes angry.
This video is really a delight. It should have at least one million views already! Big cheers to your parents, Patrick!
Please keep making these, as long as you continue to make “we heart hartnet”
Patrick's Mom has good taste in Doctors. (I'm late to this party, but I only recently got around to binging some Paddingtons)
These are easily my favorite videos you make. Keep em comin.
I truly admire the framing and details you put into your analysis videos. These are great little films.
Everything about this is YES!!! So many smiles... and for the first time I don’t feel like the Paddington movies are my guilty pleasure!!! Thank you so much for this!!! And your parents are just wonderful!! I wish you all the best!
Your parents are so good in this video. Your mother especially. This is really well done. Thanks for this video, Patrick!
I’d love you to take a look at the Mission Impossible movies in this format. I’ve been waiting for someone to articulate what’s really all that great about those movies and why they’ve had the longevity they have. I never got it, myself.
they might have the longevity because they get better with every sequel :) That Opera scene in the 5th one is just amazing!
also Tom doing crazy stunts and running like a mad man!
He did! ruclips.net/video/ZInpREMzPOY/видео.html
Ooooft, was not expecting to cry at a video essay, but it brought the films back. Damn they're good!
Just wanted to say thank you for the video! My husband and I just watched the first one over the weekend because of this video and we LOVED IT. Going to try to watch the second one this weekend!!
Perfect! The only thing I have to add is Simon Farnaby, who plays THAT guard and co-wrote the 2nd film. Also one of the comedy-heroes of any child who grew up watching CBBC in 2000's.
I just watched these movies for the first time last week and I cannot believe how good they are. I do also have the original Paddington book and plushie. Great video as always 👏🏼
Hugh Grant was under consideration for the role of Gilderoy Lockhart in the Harry Potter movies. With Paddington 2, we finally get to see what his Lockhart would have been like.
You mother has to be the cutest mom I have ever seen, and your father is so funny! I love them both. And you and your sister.
I just found your channel and been binge watching your videos. I had almost forgot about Paddington! We had the first story as a book. When I found out about the movie, I just had to watch it. Now I have to see the second one. I really love these stories that teach about being kind and caring.
best video youve released hands down, and that's saying smth considering i enjoy all ur videos!!! 🐻🐻🍊🍊
This is my favorite of your framing devices. Your parents are a treat, and such good sports.
This is by far the most layered, smart, funny, true and well crafted video I've seen in weeks!
Just rewatched this and had to laugh at the end when Patrick talks about the state of the world in 2018... Need to have a Patrick explains 2020 and why it sucks to his younger self.
I would’ve never watched these films without you releasing this video. I just finished the first, and I’m so happy I did. Thank you!
I agree entirely with this critique and have to add as one of my favourite moments the author Michael Bond appearing briefly in the first film. He is the old man who raises a glass to Paddington in the taxi ride to Windsor Gardens.
Never ending tea.
jinxie712 never ending pots of tea
Please Tell Your mom' she's a great actress. I love her!
dude ive been a huge fan of this series from the start but im so grateful to you for bringing these movies to me. i probably never would have watched them and theyre so much fun. you the man.
This series is absolutely amazing. Naturally I'm talking about your on going discussions about movies with your parents.
But that said I will almost certainly be watching the Paddington movies this weekend.
This series deserves so much more views and recognition. It’s so good!
Love his parents. The reviews make me want to re watch the movies. It's great work. Keep up the good work.
paddington is so beautiful and sincere and criminally underrated..everyone should see it...its one of my favourite movies last year and honestly I shed tears at the end of paddington 2
Amazing, love the analysis
This is my comfort video that i watch when I‘m sad
Not only did the Paddington movies bring tears to my eyes, but this video about the Paddington movies brought tears to my eyes as well. Damn well done, thank you!
Great video. The animated sequences are equally a reference to the original TV series it’s based on, where Paddington was a stopmotion animated puppet, and everyone else including the world he’s in is 2D sort of, stopmotion animated drawings.
YES! i'm a HUGE paddington fan and i'm excited to see you talk about this.
These are getting better and better
