Just to clarify some things: - The Book of Life came first than Coco. It was released in 2014, which is why people are saying that Coco copied them. - Maria gave the guitar to Manolo, not to Joaquin. - Manolo was the one who gave the pig to Maria. - Manolo and Joaquin are best friends. They were only competing for Maria's hand.
As a Mexican, we don't shy away from death, we celebrate it, we welcome it, and while we miss those that we lose, we hope that we can join them in our own time. People who've seen a Mexican funeral can tell you that it's nothing like a "regular" funeral, there's music, dancing, food, and everything that we use to celebrate them moving on to a better place! These are my thoughts about it though, since everyone mourns in different ways.
It's a party in which the special guest is the one who left too soon or the one we wish had been there another day... Because they expect us to live happily with or without him, to not let it stop us and to move forward 🎉
Well said! My mom has food and music I know she wants at her funeral to celebrate when it's her time. And it IS sad, but we celebrate the time we had together
Fun Fact: The scene with the candle lit path was actually inspired by a true event. It was how Jorge R. Gutierrez (the director) proposed to his wife, he even sang (alongside with a band) "Can't Help Falling in Love with You." And on the Day of the Dead no less. And there both their family and friends were there to witness it.
Honestly a good comfort movie especially considering the people who made it were apparently responsible for one of my favorite childhood shows as well according to what I recently heard
"Always play from the heart" Those were words directed to Manolo not Joaquin. Also, Maria gave Manolo the guitar (to replace the one she in a way broke) and Manolo gave her Chewy, her pet pig. As a way to remind her of home and that there will always be someone wanting for her when she gets back. Maria's only words to Joaquin was to "Always fight for what is right."
F$&@ YEAH! This movie deserves so much love and appreciation. This is the best Guillermo Del Toro work ever- hands down. I will die on that hill just like the way Manolo did. I love how the trio stayed together and still love for eachother regardless of what happened between them.
@@GeekZone210 Yeah, so it’s considered part of Del Toro’s portfolio cause he worked on the movie. Didn’t say it’s the best Del Toro movie, just one of his best works. There’s a difference.
Channing Tatum voiced Joaquin, Zoe Saldana voiced Maria, and Diego Luna voiced Manolo. Also, Xibalba is voiced by Ron Pearlman best known for voicing Slade (from the Good Teen Titans), The Lich (Adventure Time) and playing Hellboy.
One of my favorite movies ever!💯 I love this movie with all my heart. I definitely think this movie is severely underrated and most definitely better than coco in my opinion😌
Both are great movies but Coco is much deeper on the theme of " El Día de los muertos" . The book of life is much more commercial and with creative freedom.
Such a slept on movie! The art style for it is so gorgeous, and the soundtrack is exceptional. 💜 Also, you were so close to remembering their names for the whole movie 😂
I'm really happy that you saw this movie. And it's just so underrated that I just gotta say that the Book of Life is way better than Coco in my opinion cause of the love, loss, and remembrance. It's just so beautiful! my favorite song in this movie is The Apology Song where Manolo was apologizing to the bull for his family's misdeeds against them it just felt so touching.
Something fun that I want to add is that the guy that plays Manolo (Diego Luna) also plays Zats, prince of bats in "Maya and the Three." Another connection is Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias who plays one of the mariachi and Picchu in "Maya and the Three"
The amazing thing to me about this show is that every song is a cover to songs that already exist EXCEPT for two. Those being Manolo's love ballad to Maria and his apology to the bull, which are two of the three biggest character shifts in the movie. (The third being Joaquin's sacrifice for Manolo) I understand people's comparisons to Coco and Book of Life because they're both Day of the Dead movies that were released in close proximity to each other, but they're no more similar than the thousands of Christmas movies that there are. I'd love for there to be more Day of the Dead movies, and other movies relating to holidays of all different cultures. I think the success of both Book of Life and Coco proves that good films can be made out of them. (And I'd love to have more options than the billion Christmas films there are. I wanna see more Hannukah and Kwanza representation. Give me Chinese New Year, give me Yom Kippur, give me more Day of the Dead! The media is really sleeping on some amazing stories.)
After years, Billy finally got around to this movie. You guys can't imagine how happy i am😂🎉. Also Billy's reaction to La Muerte taking Xibalba back is killing me😂😂
LET'S. GOO!! The Book of Life is absolutely one of my favorite movies, probably in my top 5. I truly, truly adore it and it is so wonderfully told and sweet. I will always advocate for this movie, it is too good.
Death isn't always something to be feared but celebrated. As a Dominican we celebrated the day of the dead on November 2nd we make those favorite food and music and lit candles for them. Remember my younger siblings having this movie I liked it a lot
33:30 Billy your remake was beautiful! I've heard you sing phrases in a few of your videos and you're a pretty decent singer! Definitely can carry a tune and hit notes!
oh i absolutely love this movie!! the entire voice cast did such a good job and even though there's songs here that aren't original, i feel like they still mostly fit. Manolo's apology song to the bull is gorgeous in English but it's even more amazing in Spanish. to address your question about if it was supposed to be a different version of Coco: there was rumors, especially around when Coco was first announced, that this movie was pitched to Disney, but they rejected it and then started working on their own day of the dead movie (which turned out to be Coco). idk how true any of that is, but that's what i remember reading years ago
Fun fact: the end song (the one Manolo and Maria singing) are the actual wedding vows of the songwriters, Us the Duo. They wrote it for their own wedding and preformed it At their wedding
Oh no, this has NOTHING to do with Disney. This movie is by the incredible artist and director Jorge R. Gutierrez. They used to be together? Oh no. They're still married. XD I read books for fun. My current read is the Redwall series by Brian Jacques. So glad you enjoyed this great movie!! =D
Fun fact the blue eyeshadow on La Muerte and Xibalbas red eyes are connected to each other(the blue eyeshadow is the only blue in her design and the red eyes are the only red in his design) because it shows that they only have eyes for each other.
This movie is amazing! We watch this often. Its such a feel good movie. Also loved watching how shocked you were at the end with the guide transforming.
When I tell you I dropped everything when I saw the thumbnail for this reaction!!!! I was like omg Billy reacted to book fo life! I heard the soundtrack before I watched the movie and when I watched for the first time I fell in love. People like to compare Book of life but I think it was the first movie to portray the harsh shadows that get cast in mexican families. The pressure is insane. Then healing the generations before encanto. I love coco and encanto but Book of life always have a special place!
I saw this movie 5x when it was in theaters! Also, some people didn't see "Coco (2017)" because they thought they were ripping off "The Book of Life (2014)." I myself included, however then we learned that that was not the case.
I’m so glad you liked this movie!!! It’s soooo underrated. Also I fricken love reading. I have a lot of books I love but I think my current favorite is The House in the Cerulean Sea, and they just announced a sequel coming out next year so I’m super excited 💕💕
@@itshamstertime2709 really just books of any genre with queer characters since that’s what I relate to and also what I myself like to write!! Personal favorites outside of cerulean sea are really anything from TJ Klune, anything by Adam Silvera (‘history is all you left me’ is my fav of his though), All Kinds of Other, The Tarot Sequence series by KD Edwards, and the Heaven Official’s Blessing series. I literally have so many I can list off 😭 but those are some of my FAVORITE favorites!!!
@@sadraccoonboy aaaay my dude, I really like books wit queer characters too! Although I can only read books like that online. Ima try and look into those, I need something relatable in my life 😔
@@itshamstertime2709 hopefully you can find something in there that you like!!! Also realizing I forgot to put FT Lukens as another author I enjoy, def has some fun YA books that I really love
I loved this movie when it came out in 2014 and I was 11. That ending song was written by Us the Duo and came out in 2013. This song was their vows to each other for their wedding and it is very fitting as the ending song.
The soundtrack was slept on because it's a jukebox musical (a musical that takes already existing songs, which isn't bad but it does usually lead to the soundtrack not really being associated with the musical as much as if the soundtrack was made for the musical), and people associate this movie too much with Coco. Book of Life came out first, but a lot of people say they're "copying" even though the only similarity between them is that it's about the Mexican culture's afterlife. There's a bit of ignorance going on in that debate, seeing as how a lot of people arguing about how one is copying the other have also been insinuating that there can only be one Dia De Los Muertos movie. Which, for anybody not catching one, is like saying there can only be one christmas movie or halloween movie.
Makes sense Noone would talk about this soundtrack since I think it only has a handful of original songs and noone seems to like talking about jukebox musicals for some reason.
Another underrated movie is Vivo the music and songs were written by Lin-Manuel Miranda (the same guy who wrote the songs for Encanto) and he also voice acts and sings/raps in it too it is such a great movie and the soundtrack is FIRE so if you could consider watching it that would be great. #BINGERS
Holy crap i can't believe he finally watched! 🌠 I've been waiting since I saw that Rukiya reacted to it! 🌹 Nice! 🌠😎👍🎉 Also there was only five because it was the detention class 🕯
14:31 Monolo did a GREAT cover, but he didn't write "Creep," Radiohead did. Most of the songs in the movie are covers bc it's a jukebox musical, or a movie in which the songs were not originally written for the it and instead are covers of popular songs, like the Trolls movies.
I remember the Toro song making me cry when l was younger. You right about the music though and l love how the singing guy won't shush, so many classics. The twins are so cool. The Spanish hits deep, Manolo would have been perfect if only he didn't have been original sin. 😅
{Book of life soundtrack > disney soundtracks} I probably watched this movie over 5 times and I loved the songs in it and great story of violence isn't always the answer and greed of power is bad. I also liked the friendship between them. P.S. I always get goosebumps with that last song because it's too good😅.
Yes, it was in theaters. I painted my brother's and my face in calavera make-up (like the skulls or La Muerte), to watch it, there. My favorite song is a tie between the two original ones, "I Love You, Too Much," and "The Apology Song."
Billys face when it was revealed she is la muerte. Lol that was literally my reaction when i first saw this movie. I couldnt believe it. Look guys, dont get me wrong. Coco is a great movie. But this movie had my heart and its because of the bull scene. I cry every time i hear that song.
Favorite book? More like favorite book series! I recommend reading the Gold Seer Trilogy, its three books and the first one is called Walk on Earth a Stranger
Love this movie i didn't grow up with it cause i was already 21 when it came out but i still enjoyed it especially that it was Ron Perlman who voiced Xibalba the guy with the red skulles for eyes, and the music was definitely enjoyable as well plus all the songs already existed before the movie came out and i definitely was happy that Ice Cube was the voice of the Wax of candles guy, and yes that was Channing Tatum who voiced as Joaquin
The Book of Life came out in 2014 made by 20th Century Fox before it got bought by Disney. Coco came out in 2017 made by Disney/Pixar. They stand alone from each other. Though according to The Book of Life creator Guillermo del Toro it's connected to the El Tigre animated series. Also, way to call it with the plot, dude 👍
My favourite songs from the movie are "No Matter Where You Are (the one Maria and Manolo sing), "I Love You Too Much" (the one Manolo sings to Maria) and "The Apology Song" (the one Manolo uses as an apology to the bulls for the killing in bullfighting). #Bingers "The Miracle Worker" is one movie I'd like to see you react to. It's about Helen Keller, who was deaf-blind in the 1880's, learning to communicate. Anne Sullivan comes to Helen's home and teaches Helen the manual alphabet. And she teaches Helen using her remaining three senses - taste, smell and touch - to spell with the alphabet so she can communicate wants and needs. This movie is about that journey and how she finally began communicating.
I dont think many answered your question, but I read for fun! I just recently got back into reading more and have read around 35 books this year 👀 My favorites are The Book Thief, The Starless Sea, and the Murderbot Diaries. I highly suggest murderbot, its mainly short stories/novellas so theyre all quick reads
Hey Billy! This is the first video I've watched in your channel, and it's definitely now in my Likes! I'd say that the "I will wait" song is my favorite. Also, I'm not if anyone told you this, but the creator, Jorge Gutiérrez, confirmed that Manolo and María are the reincarnations of Zatz and Maya, respectively!
15:09 OMG, that IS Channing Tatum voicing Joaquin! I had no idea lolll And somehow I knew that Manolo's granduncle Jorge, the opera-singing pirate-esque guy with swords for an arm and a leg, was voiced by Placido Domingo. He's an extremely famous Spanish opera singer who can perform in pretty much any language I could imagine. Among the actors in the movie whose work I love and respect now that I'm rewatching it as an adult include Zoe Saldana - Maria (Gamora in the MCU and Neytiri in the Avatar franchise. I had no idea she could sing as beautifully as she did in the finale scene, right after her wedding!) Ron Perlman - Xibalba (Hellboy in the original two movies) Ice Cube - The Candle Maker Danny Trejo - Luis Sanchez (Machete in the Machete franchise and in the Spy Kids movies) Cheech Marin - Pancho, the medium-sized mariachi who is one of Manolo's friends (Half of the Cheech & Chong duo) Grey Delisle/Grey Griffin - Abuela Anita Sanchez (Seriously, what HASN'T she been in, but we'll say Azula in Avatar the Last Airbender, various roles in Danny Phantom including Sam, Masha in TOH, Madame Razz in SPOP, various people in Rugrats, and lots of roles in FarilyOdd Parents such as Tootie and Vicky, for starters.) Comedians whose work I love who are in this movie: Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias - Pepe, the biggest mariachi who is one of Manolo's friends 15:27 (If you haven't seen any of his stuff I HIGHLY recommend it. He was also in "Coco" later on, as the clerk who tells Miguel and his family why Miguel is stuck in limbo. Unrelated, I had no idea he could sing this well! He did a pretty good job as a mariachi in here!) Anjelah Johnson - Adelita, one of Manolo's cousins who are twins. She's the one without the eyepatch (Anjelah is known for her goofy and storytelling comedy, and the viral "Salon Manicure" comedy bit. "Dooo you liiike cry'tal geeeel?")

Not even going lie this movie is very underrated... What movie should i do next? #BINGERS

#Bingers Haunted Mansion, A Haunted House, Disney Descendants: The Royal Wedding, Cruella
goosebumps on Netflix. The freddy fazbear movie. Mario movie. Megan the princess and the frog (if you haven't already )
#Bingers a haunted house, not another teen movie, dance flick
Ron gone wrong is a Disney plus movie
It came out before Coco. It's what I used to explain death to my little human.
Just to clarify some things:
- The Book of Life came first than Coco. It was released in 2014, which is why people are saying that Coco copied them.
- Maria gave the guitar to Manolo, not to Joaquin.
- Manolo was the one who gave the pig to Maria.
- Manolo and Joaquin are best friends. They were only competing for Maria's hand.
Wonder why people would think Coco copied the Book of life? They're both made by disney
@SmellyHorse_10 That's where you're wrong. Coco was made by Disney but The Book of Life was made by 20th Century Fox Animation.
Thank you 🙏🏻 my fangirl heart was going crazy when he mixed those things up
As a Mexican, we don't shy away from death, we celebrate it, we welcome it, and while we miss those that we lose, we hope that we can join them in our own time. People who've seen a Mexican funeral can tell you that it's nothing like a "regular" funeral, there's music, dancing, food, and everything that we use to celebrate them moving on to a better place!

It's a party in which the special guest is the one who left too soon or the one we wish had been there another day...
Because they expect us to live happily with or without him, to not let it stop us and to move forward 🎉
Well said! My mom has food and music I know she wants at her funeral to celebrate when it's her time. And it IS sad, but we celebrate the time we had together
yesss I'm not Mexican but i could tell this from watching this movie and Coco!
I would so agree with you.❤❤
Same for Caribbean funerals
Fun Fact: The scene with the candle lit path was actually inspired by a true event. It was how Jorge R. Gutierrez (the director) proposed to his wife, he even sang (alongside with a band) "Can't Help Falling in Love with You." And on the Day of the Dead no less. And there both their family and friends were there to witness it.
awww❤
Stop that's so sweet😭
Oh my god that’s so sweet and beautiful😭❤️
If I don't get proposed to like this I don't want it
Honestly a good comfort movie especially considering the people who made it were apparently responsible for one of my favorite childhood shows as well according to what I recently heard
Which show?
El Tigre I believe?
@@nattycat14 yep I just confirmed it as well, what a great show
Check out maya and the three as well, such an amazing show.
And there’s a cute little book of life reference too.
"Always play from the heart" Those were words directed to Manolo not Joaquin. Also, Maria gave Manolo the guitar (to replace the one she in a way broke) and Manolo gave her Chewy, her pet pig. As a way to remind her of home and that there will always be someone wanting for her when she gets back. Maria's only words to Joaquin was to "Always fight for what is right."
“Stop talking to me like that you gonna get me pregnant” 😂😂
He’s a mess! 😂😭😂
😅
F$&@ YEAH! This movie deserves so much love and appreciation. This is the best Guillermo Del Toro work ever- hands down. I will die on that hill just like the way Manolo did.
I love how the trio stayed together and still love for eachother regardless of what happened between them.
Jorge R Gutierrz, Del Toro produced the film.
@@GeekZone210 Yeah, so it’s considered part of Del Toro’s portfolio cause he worked on the movie.
Didn’t say it’s the best Del Toro movie, just one of his best works. There’s a difference.
The guitar was always meant for him. Maria gave it to him cause he was always a Singer
Channing Tatum voiced Joaquin, Zoe Saldana voiced Maria, and Diego Luna voiced Manolo. Also, Xibalba is voiced by Ron Pearlman best known for voicing Slade (from the Good Teen Titans), The Lich (Adventure Time) and playing Hellboy.
Ugh this comment needs more likes. The cast is so amazing. And this was before andor so diego KILLS IT as the lead and nobody ever talks about it.
The Book of Life and Coco are really amazing films and great takes on The Day of the Dead!
Agreed
The book of life was made a long time before Coco. Also that wasn't really a class. It was 'the detention kids'.
Book of life came out 3 years before Coco
I just know he’s going love this movie ❤ I can already hear the
“That’s so gangsta” 😂😂😂
One of my favorite movies ever!💯 I love this movie with all my heart. I definitely think this movie is severely underrated and most definitely better than coco in my opinion😌
Both are great movies but Coco is much deeper on the theme of
" El Día de los muertos" .
The book of life is much more commercial and with creative freedom.
I think Billy fell harder for Manolo than Maria did 🤣
Fr fr.
Such a slept on movie! The art style for it is so gorgeous, and the soundtrack is exceptional. 💜

The toro song is just about the best song on this earth imo
After years, Billy finally got around to this movie. You guys can't imagine how happy i am😂🎉. Also Billy's reaction to La Muerte taking Xibalba back is killing me😂😂
im so so SO GLAD you reacted to this!! i feel like this is so underrated! and no this one came before COCO
LET'S. GOO!!
The Book of Life is absolutely one of my favorite movies, probably in my top 5. I truly, truly adore it and it is so wonderfully told and sweet. I will always advocate for this movie, it is too good.
35:38 Manolo took, "And i'd do it again" to a WHOLE new level
Death isn't always something to be feared but celebrated. As a Dominican we celebrated the day of the dead on November 2nd we make those favorite food and music and lit candles for them. Remember my younger siblings having this movie I liked it a lot
Fun fact: The song Manolo was singing about being a creep and a weirdo is actually the cover of a song by Radiohead.
Billy is so funny, because why he fangirl and say he'd jump off the balcony into his arms...he's so real.
This is one of my fav animations to ever watch! I hope you enjoyed it✨
33:30 Billy your remake was beautiful! I've heard you sing phrases in a few of your videos and you're a pretty decent singer! Definitely can carry a tune and hit notes!

Fun fact: the end song (the one Manolo and Maria singing) are the actual wedding vows of the songwriters, Us the Duo. They wrote it for their own wedding and preformed it At their wedding
Aye Billy getting rizzed up is hilarious. I don't blame him though. The songs in here are heart moving
Oh no, this has NOTHING to do with Disney. This movie is by the incredible artist and director Jorge R. Gutierrez.
They used to be together? Oh no. They're still married. XD
I read books for fun. My current read is the Redwall series by Brian Jacques.
So glad you enjoyed this great movie!! =D
Fun fact the blue eyeshadow on La Muerte and Xibalbas red eyes are connected to each other(the blue eyeshadow is the only blue in her design and the red eyes are the only red in his design) because it shows that they only have eyes for each other.
This movie is amazing! We watch this often. Its such a feel good movie. Also loved watching how shocked you were at the end with the guide transforming.
bruh its so funny how mixed up he was about who was who and who gave who what. it cracked me up
15:27 Why do you not know which kid is which? One had a mustache and got a magic medal the other was nice, got her a pig and was given a guitar
Fr tho
My kids were obsessed with this movie. My daughter convinced her kindergarten teacher to show it at school.
When I tell you I dropped everything when I saw the thumbnail for this reaction!!!! I was like omg Billy reacted to book fo life! I heard the soundtrack before I watched the movie and when I watched for the first time I fell in love. People like to compare Book of life but I think it was the first movie to portray the harsh shadows that get cast in mexican families. The pressure is insane. Then healing the generations before encanto. I love coco and encanto but Book of life always have a special place!
Finally a classic getting the recognition it so rightfully deserves
This movie is so underrated, it’s good to see others enjoy it
4:28 😂😂😂❤❤❤ My best friend and I used to duet this back in middle school, lol.
It's so great to see Billy enjoying the songs, seemingly for the first time as well.
I'm sure this was probably already said, but Manolo was given the guitar originally. He never stole it
I saw this movie 5x when it was in theaters! Also, some people didn't see "Coco (2017)" because they thought they were ripping off "The Book of Life (2014)." I myself included, however then we learned that that was not the case.
My last five star book read was The Reformatory by Tananarive Due. I absolutely love this movie!
I’m so glad you liked this movie!!! It’s soooo underrated.
Also I fricken love reading. I have a lot of books I love but I think my current favorite is The House in the Cerulean Sea, and they just announced a sequel coming out next year so I’m super excited 💕💕
What kinda books do you like? I really like two, they are called “The door at the end of the world”, and “100 dresses, ghost of a chance”!
@@itshamstertime2709 really just books of any genre with queer characters since that’s what I relate to and also what I myself like to write!! Personal favorites outside of cerulean sea are really anything from TJ Klune, anything by Adam Silvera (‘history is all you left me’ is my fav of his though), All Kinds of Other, The Tarot Sequence series by KD Edwards, and the Heaven Official’s Blessing series.

The sequel Was announced few years ago but it Was cancelled
@@sadraccoonboy aaaay my dude, I really like books wit queer characters too! Although I can only read books like that online. Ima try and look into those, I need something relatable in my life 😔
@@itshamstertime2709 hopefully you can find something in there that you like!!! Also realizing I forgot to put FT Lukens as another author I enjoy, def has some fun YA books that I really love
I loved this movie when it came out in 2014 and I was 11. That ending song was written by Us the Duo and came out in 2013. This song was their vows to each other for their wedding and it is very fitting as the ending song.
I love reading! My top 3 favorites are:
1. Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi
2. Red Rising by Pierce Brown
3. Radical by David Platt
Maria is not just a chickenhead she's a girlboss. Girl can sing , dance , knows kung fu and independent thats why i love her❤
Reminds me of the type of woman who thinks doing something nice for their SO is the equivalent of slavery 💀.
this movie was one of my favorite childhood movies 💕 it meant so much to my family because my mom is mexican
The soundtrack was slept on because it's a jukebox musical (a musical that takes already existing songs, which isn't bad but it does usually lead to the soundtrack not really being associated with the musical as much as if the soundtrack was made for the musical), and people associate this movie too much with Coco.

Maaaann Billy got more cologne than a Macy's perfume department 😂
This is absolutely my all time favorite movie and I’m SO happy to see one of my favorite reaction creators react to this!! 💕
My favorite book is “long live the pumpkin queen “
Makes sense Noone would talk about this soundtrack since I think it only has a handful of original songs and noone seems to like talking about jukebox musicals for some reason.
Another underrated movie is Vivo the music and songs were written by Lin-Manuel Miranda (the same guy who wrote the songs for Encanto) and he also voice acts and sings/raps in it too it is such a great movie and the soundtrack is FIRE so if you could consider watching it that would be great.

Holy crap i can't believe he finally watched! 🌠
I've been waiting since I saw that Rukiya reacted to it! 🌹
Nice! 🌠😎👍🎉
Also there was only five because it was the detention class 🕯
fun fact if you watch maya and the three. la muerte and her man is in it. and expands on this ancient history. it’s a lovely story
Yay, I've always loved this film and found it so underrated. So glad you reacted to it! 🥰
I feel like this was pretty underrated; loved this movie & felt this movie walked so Coco could run. 😂
Creep is by Radiohead and is the song Manolo sang in the arena next to Maria's name
Yessss singing my favorite Lloyd song with Ashanti ! That was/still is my jam
the gasp got me dead at 38:37
So many people have been reacting to this lately. Glad it's finally getting the recognition it deserves.
I remember growing up with this movie, and I'm proud to be a Book of Life fan.❤❤🥰😊
I have been waiting for you to watch this movie. It’s one of the most underrated movies ever to me
21:25 "All I wanna do is ride to the South with you" 🤘 I gotcha Billy😊
Billy you should totally see Maya and the Three the show. Made from the same director and it’s based in the same universe.
14:31 Monolo did a GREAT cover, but he didn't write "Creep," Radiohead did. Most of the songs in the movie are covers bc it's a jukebox musical, or a movie in which the songs were not originally written for the it and instead are covers of popular songs, like the Trolls movies.
I remember the Toro song making me cry when l was younger. You right about the music though and l love how the singing guy won't shush, so many classics. The twins are so cool. The Spanish hits deep, Manolo would have been perfect if only he didn't have been original sin. 😅
Thank you for reacting to this one. I know I’m gonna see you more than the movie itself but I’m OK with it I like watching your reactions anyway.
I’m so happy that you reacted to this movie,it’s one of my favorites! Honestly i think it deserves so much more attention
So happy you watched this!! This has always been my favorite movie!
This movie was my favorite for years just the soundtrack alone makes it in the top 10 animated movies
{Book of life soundtrack > disney soundtracks} I probably watched this movie over 5 times and I loved the songs in it and great story of violence isn't always the answer and greed of power is bad. I also liked the friendship between them.
P.S. I always get goosebumps with that last song because it's too good😅.
Yes, it was in theaters. I painted my brother's and my face in calavera make-up (like the skulls or La Muerte), to watch it, there. My favorite song is a tie between the two original ones, "I Love You, Too Much," and "The Apology Song."
Oh my god!! This is my all time favourite childhood movie! I watched it all the time with my family! 😄 Im happy you reacted to it Billy!
Billys face when it was revealed she is la muerte. Lol that was literally my reaction when i first saw this movie. I couldnt believe it. Look guys, dont get me wrong. Coco is a great movie. But this movie had my heart and its because of the bull scene. I cry every time i hear that song.
I have greatly admired The Book of Life for quite some time and so when the made CoCo I knew I was going to love it too.
Favorite book? More like favorite book series! I recommend reading the Gold Seer Trilogy, its three books and the first one is called Walk on Earth a Stranger
Love this movie i didn't grow up with it cause i was already 21 when it came out but i still enjoyed it especially that it was Ron Perlman who voiced Xibalba the guy with the red skulles for eyes, and the music was definitely enjoyable as well plus all the songs already existed before the movie came out and i definitely was happy that Ice Cube was the voice of the Wax of candles guy, and yes that was Channing Tatum who voiced as Joaquin
I love this movie so much. I'm so glad it seems like more and more people are starting to check it out.
The Book of Life came out in 2014 made by 20th Century Fox before it got bought by Disney.
Coco came out in 2017 made by Disney/Pixar.
They stand alone from each other.
Though according to The Book of Life creator Guillermo del Toro it's connected to the El Tigre animated series.
Also, way to call it with the plot, dude 👍
My favourite songs from the movie are "No Matter Where You Are (the one Maria and Manolo sing), "I Love You Too Much" (the one Manolo sings to Maria) and "The Apology Song" (the one Manolo uses as an apology to the bulls for the killing in bullfighting).
#Bingers "The Miracle Worker" is one movie I'd like to see you react to. It's about Helen Keller, who was deaf-blind in the 1880's, learning to communicate. Anne Sullivan comes to Helen's home and teaches Helen the manual alphabet. And she teaches Helen using her remaining three senses - taste, smell and touch - to spell with the alphabet so she can communicate wants and needs. This movie is about that journey and how she finally began communicating.
According to the creators betting, is like foreplay for Xibalba and La Muerte.
OMGGGG I LOVEEEE this movie. It always makes me cry though cause it's so sweet. 😭😭😭
What a cuuuuute movie ty for sharing Billy I’ve never seen this one love it! ❤
I dont think many answered your question, but I read for fun! I just recently got back into reading more and have read around 35 books this year 👀 My favorites are The Book Thief, The Starless Sea, and the Murderbot Diaries. I highly suggest murderbot, its mainly short stories/novellas so theyre all quick reads
ive been waiting for this oneeeee i know he gonna be vibin to the music frfr
Hey Billy! This is the first video I've watched in your channel, and it's definitely now in my Likes! I'd say that the "I will wait" song is my favorite. Also, I'm not if anyone told you this, but the creator, Jorge Gutiérrez, confirmed that Manolo and María are the reincarnations of Zatz and Maya, respectively!
Literally so glad ur review this movies, one of my favs
And in México we don't call it "La muerte" we call it "La Catrina" that before was named "La calavera garbanzera".
The Book Of Life was made first Billy and this movie and CoCo give me chills when I watch certain scenes so much passion
The guitar is actually meant for manolo, and manolo gave maria the pig :) since I noticed you accidently mixed the male leads in these areas :)
finally you watched this!! this movie is the definition of underrated and it's one of my favorites ever
23:41 - Romeo and Juliet related?! 😮 like it kinda reminds me of that bc of him dying just to see Maria kinda the same thing to Romeo and Juliet
15:09 OMG, that IS Channing Tatum voicing Joaquin! I had no idea lolll And somehow I knew that Manolo's granduncle Jorge, the opera-singing pirate-esque guy with swords for an arm and a leg, was voiced by Placido Domingo. He's an extremely famous Spanish opera singer who can perform in pretty much any language I could imagine.
Among the actors in the movie whose work I love and respect now that I'm rewatching it as an adult include
Zoe Saldana - Maria (Gamora in the MCU and Neytiri in the Avatar franchise. I had no idea she could sing as beautifully as she did in the finale scene, right after her wedding!)
Ron Perlman - Xibalba (Hellboy in the original two movies)
Ice Cube - The Candle Maker
Danny Trejo - Luis Sanchez (Machete in the Machete franchise and in the Spy Kids movies)
Cheech Marin - Pancho, the medium-sized mariachi who is one of Manolo's friends (Half of the Cheech & Chong duo)
Grey Delisle/Grey Griffin - Abuela Anita Sanchez (Seriously, what HASN'T she been in, but we'll say Azula in Avatar the Last Airbender, various roles in Danny Phantom including Sam, Masha in TOH, Madame Razz in SPOP, various people in Rugrats, and lots of roles in FarilyOdd Parents such as Tootie and Vicky, for starters.)
Comedians whose work I love who are in this movie:
Gabriel "Fluffy" Iglesias - Pepe, the biggest mariachi who is one of Manolo's friends 15:27 (If you haven't seen any of his stuff I HIGHLY recommend it. He was also in "Coco" later on, as the clerk who tells Miguel and his family why Miguel is stuck in limbo. Unrelated, I had no idea he could sing this well! He did a pretty good job as a mariachi in here!)
Anjelah Johnson - Adelita, one of Manolo's cousins who are twins. She's the one without the eyepatch (Anjelah is known for her goofy and storytelling comedy, and the viral "Salon Manicure" comedy bit. "Dooo you liiike cry'tal geeeel?")
4:27 “CHILL OUT BRANDY AND MONCIA” 😭🤚🏾
