I can't believe that the early to late 2000s that going to be ancient news... But at least in my family our genes are so lucky that we don't need age that much until 60... Literally my mom looks like she's in her late twenties and she's 40 something... Asian genes also help... 😅
This was a good movie, havent enjoyed a pixar movie in years. The director is someone im looking forward to in the future with directing more animated films.
this movie is so positive, the protagonist mindset is so bright, i relate to this movie alot and it kinda comforted me, i wish things turn out like in the movie too, but here i am having traumas from my own parents
It's nice to see a non emo teen. A lot of the people in my classes are so moody and complain about relationships how they didn't find there soul mate in middle school.
While I didn’t like most of the ‘over exasperated facial experiences for the sake of over exaggeration’ I do like baby Mei’s mouth is just a circle. It’s so cute
I like how they look like real photos, they give you this nostalgic feeling and it's obv that they are not "professional" photos, like the light of the flash is visible especially in the one where they are combing their hair, a nice touch I really appreciate.
No we can't. This movie is excellent, very well placed, carefully detailed, and an earnest exploration of intergenerational conflict. I absolutely think it's one of Pixar's best of all time, certainly top ten. And yes, I understand the weight of that statement considering their excellent catalog.
After I watched Ecanto and Turning Red with my Mother. I started a conversation regarding generational trauma with them. Since I am a psychologist major, I have explained everything in an organized manner. I manage to talk to my mom what she did to me when I was young is not ok to used me a emotional baggage and its not ok to shout at someone when she is being emotional that it's called displacement. Moreover, I talked to my grandma the source of all this behavior, and she also realized it was wrong. I am happy I managed to bring my emotional baggage in an organized manner that is not right to ignore mental health and use people to shout on.
Although there is a stereotype of the typical Asian parent, any race parent can be pressuring! No one is excluded from the struggle (as a chinese, I was born with the most wonderful supportive set of parents I could ask for, always loving no matter what I achieve or don’t achieve
Tbf, the stereotype of Asian parents doesn't exist out of nowhere. It's because so many Asian parents are like this, it's become the stereotype of them ( though I agree with what you said, it's not limited to any races obviously ). This comes from me who is an Asian myself too. Many Asian parents are like Ming, including my mom in the past ( she isn't like that anymore fortunately after I ended up become suicidal, not anymore now ). Somehow sadly based on my own and my friend's family circumtances, the ones who tend to be tiger parents are often to be the Indo-Chinese ones ( I'm from Indonesia so the majority of the Chinese who are Indonesians in here are mixed with other ethnicities ). It's not like they want to burden their children just like Ming, they wish for the best to their children and also do their best for them but..... the expectation and the things they want us to do can be too much..... even if we are aware it's for our own good. That said, I'm glad you have amazing parents :D that's wonderful.
@@JosephFlores-yn4yi You can reread again and see I also *POINTED OUT* that I agree with their comment's point, yes ? So what's your point ? Besides, you also miss my comment's point. My point is even though I agree with their comment, I just wanted to say the stereotype is given to Asian parents ( despite it happens to any races ) for a reason. I don't see op ( whom my reply is directed toward to anyway and not you ) have any problems with my essay or say I miss their comment point. It's not like I disagree with them. Edit : grammars. Still suck though. I even forget should I use whose or whom.
Aww, I love how they show how close Mei and her mom are. I feel that's why her mother began to smother her more and more, it's due to the fact she isn't use to seeing Mei grow and do her own thing.
This is so relatable. Hahaha like, some people don't catch it but sometimes when you grow too attached to your parents it seems like dishonoring them by doing what it's good or feels right to you but they don't approve. I almost got the same relationship with my dad, even trough I love him it was hard to learn that I was different from him and I have my own path.
@@shishi0o and the mom in this film is an extremely toned down version of what a lot of Asian parents can be like sometimes yeah, your parents actually hate you
omg the honoring the parents picture is actually relatable. There was a club event in my old school when I was 7. Where the school would call some parents to come and the student would kneel and hand them tea like the picture. It wasn't something bad, it was like um a traditional thing where children many years ago would really really respect their parents and serve them tea to show respect or something like that-
This is my mom always remind me... Study and be successful someday. Always be greatful for what she gives. That's why I'm always obedient to my mom... Always follows what she says. "It's for your own sake" she says. This is the most typical parents in Asia... We also call it here in my country "Utang na Loob" They give you everything, like a home, food and anything that had keep you alive and well and be successful in life ... You as the child have to give in return... Success and make your parents proud and also compensation.
Everyone who is not asian don't know the struggle so they can't see how inexplicably amazing and the warmth this movie brings,when I was meimei's age i was exactly like her and i couldn't do anything about it out of fear dishonoring the family name and being a disgrace to your parents,what I think the white and black people don't get is the internal society of set standards every one of us needs to uphold whenever there's relatives and acquaintances involved,they don't feel pressured by their relatives and god parents,now before anyone contradicts we see meimei sit properly and being courteous with her aunties and grandma which is exactly what i would do because that's how we we're raised,to live by code and conduct,we don't get the freedom to ask alot of money,go to school parties or being the so called popular kid or bad bitch because of responsibilities that come with being born.
Biggest letdown of my childhood is me and my friend back in the 2000s bullying the only Chinese girl in our primary school 🙄😬 Of course now I find Chinese to be beautiful like any other race ♥️
Agree. But you Don’t need to be Asian raised to empathised with the strugle. I love this movie so much! I hope it will help families to make a better bond.

@@Randomperson-lc4le yeah, but she never forced her children to do anything, just to have a career that they like. Now, the difference is considering what your kid thinks, and what she really wants.

@@Randomperson-lc4le yeah, she didn't want us to be one more person in the family that didn't go to college.

@@peyfalehrramp5645 this might sound weird rn but if she is heading that age then i recommend she picks up some sort of excercising (i don't think it has to he anything large) my grandma does and she is around 70 and still very independent and fit :D
@@Anna-bf8qe yes but that’s different since in Columbia, women are sometimes taller than men. But it other countries, its different. And besides, Encanto got old about a month ago.
My family after watching this movie, "This is the WORST thing that Disney has ever put out." Me, looking at them, from the other side of the couch, "Oh? Really? Why? Because Encanto made you feel awkward about how you all used me as the negative energy hate sponge until I stopped coming around at 22, and didn't even come back till after I was 28? And then now, they point out that parents thinking your dependency and submissive servitude should be absolute and unbending for your entire life is a toxic, individual self-deprivating ideology that causes children to have massive amounts of hate and resentment for their parents, and that it's actually healthier to show love and affection, and not only does it put your own actions into question, but the actions of your Parents and their grandparents, is that why you think this is the worst thing ever? Truth hurts buddy, why do you think I don't come around and am really hesitant to spend my days coming to visit ya'll."
It's understandable; my mom side family is too. But! They have no idea what they are doing is wrong. It does not give parents any right to use kids as an emotional baggage. I confronted my mom and grandma; the result was it went perfectly well. They apologized, and it will take some time to process these newfound discovery about its not okay to use us children as an emotional baggage.
Every time I’m reminded that this movie takes place in 2002. I immediately come to the realization that the mei and her friends would be 33 years old if the movie was in the current year
Parents do a lot for their child, and the child should be thankful, that’s true. But the child also didn’t ask to be born. So, let’s say we’re playing on equal footing here. The child doesn’t owe anything to their parents and vice versa. Parent child relationships shouldn’t be transactional.
At 0:01 in this picture Mei looks about 5 years old. With the picture being taken in 1994, that would mean she was born in approximately 1989. As of 2022, if Mei was born in 1989 she is approximately 33 years old today. What a cool detail lol 😊
The movie takes place in 2002 when she was 13, I.e. 2002 = 13 years old 2002-13 = 0 years old 1989 = 0 years old = birth year Current year - birth year = age (in years) 2022 - 1989 = age (in years) 33 = age (in years) Of course, this doesn't take into account her exact birthday and the exact date today, but it's off by less than 1 year. In other words, her age is 33±1 years old.
I like how there was the plot twist at the end of the clip-- "Luckily, I don't have that problem." That was the line of the movie which made me assume that Mei was a little diva. I was so wrong.....
put a roof over your head, food on your plate, an epic amount of food and thats it, thats the limit, for me at least, growing up in an asian family psychological aspect? nope emotional aspect? nope Respect only in 1 direction, us to them Have no say in the family, we're always on the wrong and the "to be blamed" Now we're well-built robots striped of emotions then now they're blaming us for not being happy (in front of relatives) not knowing my sibling was almost suicidal but who are we to say? they raised us, without them we're dead
At first, I was doubtful about watching this movie since I thought it had summed up me in a nutshell, but after seeing it when it hit the big, it's actually better than I thought! As a 2000's guy, I can relate to this on so many levels. Also, the quality of these pictures makes them look so real!
The pictures were pretty realistic. Nostalgic in a way ^^
Yea
fr tho most of my pics from that general time look so much like them i was soooo surprised how on point they were
well the movie took place in 2002
I wonder if they used the Director's real childhood photos as a reference.
But the fact that her mother always wears the same dress lol
Notice how Ming has green and Mei has red. Green and red are complimentary colors another testament on how close Ming and Mei are :')
It also represents their rift as well.
i noticed that ming, the aunties and the grandma all wear green while mei always wears red and pink
@@PhrogOfficial :o didn't notice that! Nice
Green and red are opposite of one another on a color wheel.
Same goes with Mei and Miriam
There's a difference between honoring your parents and doing everything they want.
Yeah. That's what the movie is about

Being born at the 2000's on january 1st is a dream everybody wants 😢😔
I’m more scared honestly
I JUST REALIZED-
Mei was born 1989
She was 5 years old in 1994
13 in 2002.
Which means she's 32-33 today (2022) 😭
She as old as Taylor Swift ..
@@bacht4799 Ikr it feels rather emotional in a way to imagine her all grown up now after seeing these nostalgic pics and the movie itself

The movie takes place in 2002 when she was 13,
I.e.
2002 = 13 years old
2002-13 = 0 years old
1989 = 0 years old = birth year
Current year - birth year = age (in years)
2022 - 1989 = age (in years)
33 = age (in years)
Of course, this doesn't take into account her exact birthday and the exact date today, but it's off by less than 1 year. In other words, her age is 33±1 years old.
She's now 36 today.

Wait doesn’t that mean she’s 33
don't think about it
That is how math work yes
She's 20.
@@PinkPOPplayz so she’s zero in the movie?
If she was born in 2002, she would be 20.
As someone who was raised in 2003, relatable
80% of these comments are people saying how she is 33 nowadays lol
Ming never ages
ah yes logic 👌
the chiniese new year clothing was just 👌
I like how the mom and the dad wear the exact same clothes throughout meilin growing up
0:12 that haircut tho- it brings back so many traumatic memories from my very own childhood 💀
I just wanted to say... her father has the eyes who say: I'm so proud of my girl!
Awwww mei mei looks so cute i will always love my parents the most
I really hope they make a show out of this movie I loved this movie so relatable.
* just peacefully talking about parents *
The end..
*"BUT LUCKILY, I DONT HAVE THAT PROBLEM"* 😌
I like how there was the plot twist at the end of the clip-- "Luckily, I don't have that problem." That was the line of the movie which made me assume that Mei was a little diva. I was so wrong.....
0:17 to be honest, this is the cutest lmao
I definitely love this pixar movie
Mei when she was younger is soo cute🥺❤️
If Mei is like 33 by now how old is 4*town 😭
(Prob like their fourties??)
As old as the guys in backstreet boys
Some ppl said that that blonde boy has children
@@s0ap_eater1405 Yep his children were probably like toddlers by the time of the story or smth
They would get married and grow old/ live as normal life
Little Mei is just too cute!
"Luckily! i dont have that problem! *leaves*"
It's scarily accurate how the photos look like the flash the shadows
I was relating to her till that one last sentence
You don't honour yourself?
That photo when her mom was feeding her it was so cute 🥰🥰🥰
As someone who has both West Indian parents, i can say for a fact that this is how i have to treat my parents, otherwise i wll be buried alive.
0:10 that’s so relatable about how old colored photos look like
OH GOD THE BOWL CUT. I feel the PTSD coming on.
I know she is a cartoon….. BUT CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW CUTE OF A KID SHE IS
0:01 ayo if she is 13 how was she in year 1994??
Because the movie is based in the 2000s
Meilin lee photo album: …
1.1m people: YES
Lmao the movie takes place the year I was born
Great photos and speech from Mei Mei
Right at the first sentence I realized where the movie was going.
Exodus 20:12 is one of those quotes that gets misinterpreted.
She looks so cute as a kid ! 😊😊😊
put a roof over your head, food on your plate, an epic amount of food
and thats it, thats the limit, for me at least, growing up in an asian family
psychological aspect? nope
emotional aspect? nope
Respect only in 1 direction, us to them
Have no say in the family, we're always on the wrong and the "to be blamed"
Now we're well-built robots striped of emotions
then now they're blaming us for not being happy (in front of relatives)
not knowing my sibling was almost suicidal
but who are we to say? they raised us, without them we're dead
mei mei , is very cute in these photos😍
Now she is 33 years old...

At first, I was doubtful about watching this movie since I thought it had summed up me in a nutshell, but after seeing it when it hit the big, it's actually better than I thought! As a 2000's guy, I can relate to this on so many levels. Also, the quality of these pictures makes them look so real!
LUCKILY I DONT HAVE THAT PROBLEM *jumps*
The photo of mei eating a dumpling reminds me of the pop cat
Meilin should be 33 by now she was 13 in the movie and I’m guessing this movie is taking place in 2002 so
2002 + 20 = 2022
13+20 = 33
their food and water in the sea in pixar looks soo good
Now she over 30 😭
What's wrong with being 33?
@@butterflycorpse8704 nothing I use that emoji when I’m laughing for some reason
My fav photo of Mei is when she eat,so cute-
This isn't a masterpiece by far but it's still enjoyable nonetheless.
Meilin is sooo cute!
0:16 Being a Red Panda Descendant, she really has a big Mouth to Eat with...like me...I also have a Big Mouth to Eat.
I love how mei’s mom doesn’t change😂
I did the math and I found out she was born in 1989
And she was like 4-5 in the first photo
