I dont know what it is about this character, it makes me feel calm. a small little shell completely unphased by the big world. doesn't get defensive, doesn't get pessimistic, angry, withdrawn. she doesn't feel regret that she's so small and unusual, she finds joy in life in her own way, it's cute, so much innocence in such a small little shell.

I saw so many connections between this video with the feature film now: the vast but delicate and beautiful natural landscapes, the rain, the garden, the window sill, the songs... Marcel is so beautiful and makes me wanna cry.
Look !km!!¡!! More. Kids kids movies for kids movies for kids thank you play movies come on did all of those numbers kids kids movies for kids kids movies are for girls on right now right now
Ahhh one of the best videos on the internet.. glad to see it back! A shining example of why youtube was created. A pleasure to watch every second. Thanks!
This movie was just... so beautiful. It was so calming and slow, yet somehow totally engrossing in a way that made it impossible to stop watching. This movie was beautiful, and helped me look at life, everyday life, in a completely different way.
Marcel made me feel empty. But in a strange, good way. He made me feel nostalgic and sad but happy. He made me miss the younger me. Back when I was a kid (I'm still a kid I'm 16 but still). He makes me wish I made happier memories for myself.
I've adored Jenny Slate since her very short stint on SNL...but the greatness that is Marcel the Shell and all her amazing work post-SNL makes me adore her even more.
So, the distance from Marcel 1-2 was 1 year. The time distance of 2-3 was 3 years So it goes by odd numbers so Marcel 4 should come out in 2018 or 2019
I doubt it will again. Jenny Slate is the voice of Marcel. She and Dean-Fleischer Camp were married when this came out and they probably were either dating or knew each other when the first two came out. They got divorced from what I know, and unless it was mutual and they're still good friends, I can't see Marcel the Shell coming back. Sorry :(
Marcel: But also I promised that they could watch you eat it cause I was like, "I-I know this guy who can eat a whole grape" and they were like "BS". I LOVE THAT😂❤️❤️
Marcel literally is my inspiration. my friends know me by it and I can quote all 3 perfectly. I strive to live like marcel and I love these videos so much. thank you. thank you for this. it keeps me going and reminds me that smiling a lot is worth it.
Recently watched the movie, which brought back faint memories of being introduced to Marcel by my teacher in middle school! I always meant to watch it on my own time, but never got around to it. I did, however, attempt to make my own parody of it, at the suggestion of my teacher who asked some students if they’d like to make their own “Marcel the Shell” style characters. Mine was Flammer the Hammer, who wasn’t even a real hammer. Just a wooden square with an image of a hammer on it. I then just gave it wheels and eyes just because. Unfortunately my video… needed work…and the camera I used couldn’t connect to the computer, and it used tapes to record on. It was an attempt, but Flammer the Hammer has been shelved indefinitely… But years upon YEARS later… after graduating college and taking animation seriously (a bit too seriously now that I think about it) as well as videography, VFX, etc. but still learning and still very much a beginner in a lot of this stuff, I was blessed with rediscovering Marcel the Shell with shoes on…and that Dean, Jenny, and so many other wonderful people helped to bring this wholesome shell with shoes and a googly eye to life in his very own movie!!! And Dean? You all have helped inspire me to keep going and to pursue my dreams, but also to remember to stop and smell the roses, (and watch out for wandering shells and tennis balls!) Thank you Dean!!! Thank you Jenny! Thank you A24! Thank you everyone!!!!🥹🥹🥹💖💖💖
My name has introduced me to this brilliant story telling and I can't get enough. It's so fun and original. I've had at least three people randomly ask if I was the creator or if I've seen MTSWSO and I can proudly say yes to one of those questions. Keep it coming! Marvels Rule!!
Omg can you please make this a weekly thing? I cry at all these videos and I love them. I show them to the youngins and they love them too. Marcel is bae. It's just so sweet...
how did they manage to take a shell, teeny shoes, and a googly eye and make me CARE SO FRICKEN MUCH ABOUT IT!! BRING MARCEL INSIDE, DAMN YOU, CAMERMAN!!! MAKE SURE MARCEL IS SAAAAFEEEEE!!!
Hello Marcel, I have recommended our movie to all my friends because it was beautiful and funny and sad. I love the song you learned at camp and will share it with my friends. God bless you.
Who knew a little shell can inspire a little girl. Marcell is just a tiny shell but if i stand next to her I seem big. But im really small. There is a big differance right? Well Marcell made such a big differance it makes her seem big. I dont know whether to be inspired, laugh,cry or say "adorable!" But if you listen to the teeny tiny shell she seems sad. Just thinking this makes me sad... Omg my childhood.
What can’t you believe? Are you so disgruntled that you can’t imagine a POSITIVE character being successful or are you GLAD to witness such (kind of a “glass half empty” - “glass half full” thing going on here! 🤟
I think Marcel should come back with a fourth short. I know Jenny Slate is busy with her acting career, but if she could do another short, then that would be awesome.
Whenever I clip my toenails I feel like I am throwing away five sets of perfectly good skis.

upvoted your corny comment because, well, it's accurate.
One can learn lessons from something so innocent
*unfazed. A phase is a noun.
3 years late but i thought marcel was a boy 😳
sadisticvans he is, Jenny Slate voices him and she talks about him in interviews I’ve seen. She says “he/him”
I'm so glad there's a movie for this little guy now. He makes me so happy.

that shell is that awkward friend you love so much and not care what they do because what they do is not on purpose its just who they are naturally
I'm awkward!!!!!!
And also what they do is so wholesome.

Just watched the movie on Prime. What a charming piece of work, and what an incredible amount of dedicated work. Absolutely wonderful.
I'm a big softie and the camp song brings me to tears every time. Thinking about it makes my heart ache. There's just something about it...
