Please give thsi video some love even if you have watched it. It's been blocked 3 times now and thsi copyright is real brutal for the channel. THANKS ALL!!
You know i dont care if it has been blocked so many times im just happy that your acculy trying to fix it compared to other youtube channels who dint, im happy cause this is such a good movie and im exited to see your reaction agien,
I love how they settled with the name Perrito, which is essentially just a variant of "dog", because both Puss and Kitty have names that are just variants of "cat"... they really are a team in the end!
I'd also include Shrek himself. His name is derived from the term Schreck, meaning "terror" or "fright" in Yiddish/German, which as an ogre, is what the world literally thinks of him. Also, Dragon. She's literally a Dragon.
It's probably just me but I think Kitty lied about not showing up to the wedding either just to spare Puss' feelings. Because she acted very angry in the beginning and was now nonchalant about it after she heard his conversation with Perrito.
It makes sense. Unlike most movies that use tension as filler, this movie shows that she was hurt in more ways than one. But she doesn’t overreact and become evil in many ways. Instead, she understands that it was a daunting thing for puss and the fact that he is willing to show vulnerability means he’s changed. Also, it could be that she was physically there, but not truly there in an emotional sense.
Marvel had already established each of their characters through multiple films or TV shows, what makes puss in boots impressive is that it introduces 3 new villains that are all balanced perfectly in one film.
@@joekerr5418oh so you're a DC person, funny how before recently no one cared about *any* of your movies except for the dark knight series and anything with batman. Everything before recently was garbage
The best moments that touch to the core: 1. The Puss said that he had never been touched by blade. Death is the first to wound him. This is both a metaphor and another indicator of how much more serious things have become. 2. When a Wolf puts coins on his eyes, this is an obvious reference to Charon and many other burial traditions. 3. The fact that the mother bear is ready to do everything for the sake of the desire of the Goldie, even though she wants another family for herself... I melted.
@@estelaangeles2346 Perhaps it’s a different incarnation of her and the 3 bears that were seen in the first Shrek film. Even the same can be said for Rumpelstiltskin's design in Shrek Forever After despite previously appearing in Shrek The Third.
Should be more like "why the hell do I have to play with my food" As in he's annoyed that he can't just straight up kill puss since he changed, and be it as it may be, death respects life and those who value it. Either that or my Spanish, well, Spanish sucks. I'm Mexican so idk ;-;
I like the quote, "from one orphan to another," because it says something very interesting about Perrito. He may have appeared at first to be in denial about his tragic backstory, but he actually is aware of how awful his past is, but refuses to let it affect him.
Big Jack Horner's depiction in the movie is weirdly fitting. As the nursery rhyme "Little Jack Horner" was allegedly written to mock the real-life Thomas Horner, who was, according to the history books, a greedy, lying, swindling land dealer.
I would not be surprised if this is not a coincidence and the writers knew beforehand, although with any movie so packed to the gills with references some of them must be coincidences after all.
@@dragonmagoz if it was other writers i would disagree, simply cause of the amount of poorly written sludge that comes out recently, but these writers that created something this good genuinely might have done it on purpose
Fun fact that was pointed out by somebody who worked on the film: each and every hit in the fight scenes is timed to sync perfectly with the beat of the music.
i noticed this with the giant fight how the stomps were perfectly in rhythm and i was like dam. that makes the fights scenes so much more immersive it was pure genius
@@ellie8272 In the scene, where Puss is running around the Giant, you can see The Wolf standing behind the people - between the houses ;) It's kinda easter egg from animators.
The fact that i SCREAMED as soon as I recognized sherk's theme song whenever they enter to Far Far Away and I inmediately knew that they were going to see Shrek again
I always saw Shrek’s Theme-Music as DreamWorks IN GENERAL’s Theme-Music, since they almost always play it whenever they show the DreamWorks logo at the beginning of a movie.
This movie is simply spectacular. It has gorgeous animation, top notch fight choreography, great characters, a great arc for Puss, and one of if not the best DreamWorks antagonists ever. I like how, at the start, Puss was bragging about having "never been touched by a blade." So the moment Death was actually able to cut him, Puss became a scared, anxious mess. It's the moment he realized he's not invincible after all.
the fact death isnt a antagonist but a force that must be overcome is always a treat to me cause not only your doing the main storyline your also trying to understand death
@@fredgiticecavern2510 No, Death IS an antagonist. An antagonist is a character that opposes the protagonist, Puss, because he kept bragging about how he laughs in the face of Death. But Death is not a villain. That goes to Jack Horner.
This movie has one of the most badass interpretations of Death I love his design and his voice. The fact that he pops up throughout the movie and when you hear that whistle your like "RUN!".
Mhm I do agree, it's also I believe that death is obsessed with puss in boots because of his nine lives, of how many times he's escaped from his clutches.
How many other people noticed the "horses" pulling horner's vehicle are actually unicorns with their horns chopped off? (I also love how even Puss's past lives start to get nervous once death shows up)
The wolfs comments/actions and the past lives are also synced up too. Like how the wolf talks about how intoxicating fear is and the drunk Puss says 'it is??' excitedly. And then the gambling Puss accuses him of cheating. Oh and the wolf is easily able to push over the supposedly strong Puss.
A good twist makes you go back and realize all the things you missed 1. Death appears before his fight with Puss in the bar. When the crowd does the wave during the giant fight, he is watching from an alley in the top left. 2. The doctor/barber/veterinarian blows out a candle to symbolize death. Just before Death first reveals himself to Puss, a candle goes out. 3. Death putting coins on his eyes is reference to ancient cultures putting coins on the eyes of the deceased. The ancient Greeks were most famous for this tradition. They believed you needed to pay a ferryman, Charon, to cross the Styx River into the afterlife. Otherwise you'd be stuck in purgatory/limbo. 4.Certain dialogue also alludes to the wolf's true identity: Puss: Puss in Boots laughs in the face of death, right, bounty hunter? Death: So, I've heard. 5. The wolf being Death also explains his supernatural powers, such as, being able to teleport and not showing up on the map.
Obvious notes of Death’s powers. 1. Being able to walk through the wishing star’s dome, which killed the last of Jack Jorner’s minions. 2. Shattered the purple mirror with just his voice alone. 3. Able to appear within the crystal dome, even though it shouldn’t have been possible as it was blocked.
Worth noting that the coins on the eyes thing isn't historically accurate, but it is culturally widespread as true these days so it's still a great reference
I Just loved Jack horner, it gave us a secret ultra important message, sometimes the villain is not misunderstood, sometimes he's just pure evil because he wants to, and that reflects in real life too, sometimes people are jerks because they find it fun and not because they had a tough past
Not exactly, in real life people are jerks for reasons too. Trauma, mental issues, past abuse and ect. But truth of life is - sometimes it doesn’t matter why are you like this
this is extremely true, theres a point where the "misunderstood" villain is either overused and/or straight up done wrong entirely, some people are just evil and that's that
@@maximisationisreal439 Well they didnt say that some people are jerks no reason, they said that some ppl are jerks for fun without going through any of those examples you mentioned
If you notice the Ethical Bug burn the last part of the map, it is not just because Jack Horner denied his help. It is also because when Jack flick him, one of his leg and wing got torn off, causing him to be disabled and can’t fly. That why the Phoenix has to carried him at the end
37:46 I love Death’s sickle staff. A unique weapon I’ve never seen before in a movie with amazing sound design to go along with it. Such a great villain. 10/10
I liked the staff too. It is very unconventional, but uses thrusts and shoves like it's a spear, which means that even if the weapon is very unique, the moves still feel very natural.
i agree, though i hesitte to call him a "villian". he is DEATH, aka a force of nature that does not care if you been good or bad. true he is chasing puss here, something most reapers dont do, but thats cause as he says puss never appreciated his life and when he died, he thought nothing of it. he beilived he was immortal, something any death incarnation would HATE.
My theory is they wanted to upgrade death from the simple scythe to a more modern weapon of that time period so they gave him 2 sickles that he could combine into his “scythe” staff
the sounds, god, it really deserves to. I watched it in a theater and the scene with death and puss having a panic attack gave me anxiety so bad. A whole experience.
There was a time when stuff meant for kids was not all dumbed down pg-7 BS. I mean, if you take just about any fairy tale in the original version instead of the current emasculated ones, they're pretty dark (to perform the educational function of warning children of the dangers of the outside world, primarily).
I love the fact that someone saw the scene of Puss coughing up a hairball and said "You know who would be great for this guy to fight? The literal grim reaper"
Heya ! Here are some spanish notes if you had curiosity ! 2:37 Cordova and Del Mar are actual cities and municipalities of Spain ! (Only that is Cordoba and not Cordova) 8:55 The song that plays here it's a Bolero called "¿Por qué vas?" (Why do you leave?) from the Guatemalan singer Gaby Moreno. It's a cry for someone that's leaving, that could be Puss crying for himself 'cause he choosed to retire, leaving the legend behind "Perrito" is a way to say "Lil Dog" or "Doggie" actually, there's something cute about how they call Perrito all the way in the movie: At first, they just call him "Perro" that's just straight up "Dog" ( 13:08 No affection) but later, they add what we call "sufijo apreciativo" or "appreciative suffix" if you will, that's a little addition to a noun that's more affective and close (Example: Gato, Gatito) and this is a proof that they started to like him more and more as the adventure goes ( 26:31 With affection) [Edit: This is also called "sufijo diminutivo" or "diminutive suffix" to refer to something small or tiny, and since Perrito is in fact, a puppy, it's logical to refer him like this. But I do prefer my first observation 'cause it's more wholesome] 18:42 "Ay, que miedo" means "Geez, how scary" 24:21 "Gatito Blade" Means "Kitty Blade" 24:28 When Puss throws the stick sword, he says "Vaya con Dios" that is a way to say "Godbye" or "Go with God" It's a phrase mostly used by old people to bless their beloved ones when they went out of home or when they get separated to reach their destinies safe and sound. This is used not just in Spain but in Latin America as well, thanks to the colonialism that brought christianity here by Spanish people themselves 26:06 What Kitty shouted to the three bears when they stole the map was: "I'm going to turn you into bathroom's carpets" that could be a reference about the Mama Bear on the first Shrek movie, that had that horrific fate 27:00 Santa Coloma it's also a real municipality of Spain, but they are many of them with a different last name (Santa Coloma de Gramanet, Santa Coloma de Farnés, Santa Coloma de Queralt, etc) 37:53 "Bien, muy bien" means "Well, very well" (JUST SSSSSASSY) 38:46 "Hasta la muerte" could mean "Until the death" or "To the death" And a funfact about the Spanish translation is that Goldilocks and the Three Bears have an Argentinan accent instead of an Australian [Edit: Now I figured out that it was in fact British instead of Australian, my bad 😅] Hope you learned something useful today, homies ! Hasta otra !
@@flyboy6392 You are right! I once heard that it was Australian but now I do believe that is British too ! Since I don't interact too much with Britsh or Australian people, It's hard for me to tell them apart 😅
@@yaxtheghost2249 I used to go to church with some people from Oz, and I also do some voice acting as an Australian (even though I've never been) for one of my friends
I like how they included the nursery rhyme for Jack because they knew it was an obscure one that not a lot of people would know, but they didn’t include the context for Cricket bc come on, you know who that is. Good balance of trusting your audience vs filling them in when they need it Also I done The cockney accents lol. Between that, her attitude, and her character design, Goldi really reminds me of like a Fable 2 character. Gotta love that
Dreamworks gives us a sequel to a spinoff of a sequel and it's up there with one of the best films they've ever done. We really don't need a Shrek sequel, but if they can pull it off on this level, heck yes I'll see it. They set the bar damn high though. Spiderverse animation style alone won't do it. They are going to need a story as good as they had for this.
This. I wasn’t interested in more shrek until this movie. I’m actually more interested in stories within the universe of shrek, like this, than a continuation of shrek. But if they do do it, I hope it’s good.
this movie is such a gift for us. The animation is incredible. I get the inspiration from spider-verse, but the paintbrush effect makes it sooo unique. Also I love how the story and the characters are handled. we spend the first ten minutes conscructing puss' character but once he's on that last life and death is finally able to touch him, with a blade nonetheless, all of that building just collapses and puss is left destroyed, terrified for his life. When I saw that scene, my god was I on the edge of my seat gasping. not even talking about the panic attak scene, such a good portrait , or every time you hear that whistle and death appears on screen, it just gave me chills. Man I wish there were more animated movies as bold and mature as this one
Florence Pugh is Goldilocks and she does amazing! I didn't even realize it was her until I saw the credits. Also When Death shows up in the bar, me and my friend who saw it in theaters were like (Ohhhhh no, we are not old enough for this PG movie) :D
What’s interesting is that puss beat death by finally cherishing the one life he had left, and the whole reason death was after him is because puss “laughed in the face of death” and had no care for his 9 lives, even death himself says 9 lives seems absurd.
He didn’t really “beat” Death. He evens says he knows he can’t defeat him. Death let him live because he saw Puss realized the value of the life he had left.
5:57 You can see Death during Puss' 8 lives recount. And prior to that, you can hear 8 bells go off during his fight with the giant of Del Mar. 26:06 she basically said she's gonna turn them into bathroom rugs which is a reference to Shrek 1 where another three bears were taken away by Farquaad and the Mother bear was turned into a rug. I'm guessing no one else can Death unless they're near death or at death, hence the end where everyone's lives were in grave danger putting them into a near death experience. Another thing, whether it's intentional or not, I love how Mama Luna put mittens on the cats instead of declawing of them.
Death (aka The Wolf or Lobo) is without a doubt one of DreamWorks best but also terrifying antagonists in years and Wagner Moura (a Brazilian actor) who is best known Pablo Escobar in _Narcos_ really knock it out of the park. Interestingly despite his actions in the film Death is by no means a villain as he has a sense of honor and nobility, as his main reason for pursuing Puss in the first place was to punish him for arrogantly squandering his eight lives with reckless abandon, concluding from this that it would be best to kill him before he wasted his final life. 🐺🐺 Interestingly, before Puss in Boots meets him at the bar, Death appears in a blink and you miss moment when Puss was battling the Giant where he was in a slight dark corner and compared to the Crowd he was not cheering for Puss but watching him to see if he gets killed and hints of him of his wolf head and sickles were seen on Puss' death card numbers. Finally, Death's quote in Spanish when he was defeated by Puss: _"¿POR QUE DIABLOS FUI A JUGAR CON MI COMIDA?!?"_ translates to _"WHY THE HELL DID I PLAY WITH MY FOOD?!?"_ in English.
this and Guillermo's Pinocchio are some of the biggest and best surprises of modern entertainment, definitely as far as animated movies are concerned, they both came out towards the end of 2022 so very recent and showed everybody how well done things can be when you got people who care working on it and they know what they are doing :) its also very interesting how similar these movies are, they both deal with death in their own way and they do a great job :) here the character of DEATH is quite something, already achieved legendary status :D lets hope they can keep this up for the future :)
I like how many references there are to the Wolf being Death before the actual reveal. Like when he asks for Puss’s autograph and taps the word “dead” over and over for the signature, the skull pattern on his face, and his use of sickles. But the best one is when he does the “I’m watching you” gesture, he places two coins over his eyes, which is an Ancient Greek custom. The coins would be placed over the eyes of the deceased so they would be able to pay Charon, the Ferryman of the Dead, and make it into the Underworld Also, complete side note, but making Death be Brazilian and the actor they got to play him just makes him go that much harder. I really hope we see more of him in future movies, but not to an overused degree. Keep him intimidating, maybe have him show up during Puss’s final appearance to aid him in a final stand before Death finally takes him. I think it would be kinda cool to see Puss and Death become homies by the end
When Death shows up in the fight where Jack is using his crossbow, the rocks around him make the shape of a skull as well- Side not, I think the coins on the eyes are a common mistake, its actually supposed to be coins on the tongue- but the eye's thing is in pop culture now and it looks great here. Another good moment- when the doctor/barber/etc tells Puss he died, he blows out a candle- in the bar after the bartender leaves a candle on the chandelier goes out, then we hear the whistling and death shows up. Finally I love the bit that death has Puss's lives crossed out on one of his sickles- and its the same sickle that puss blocks with his gatito blade and lets push him into reach of his hat and sword. Other good moments include seeing the reflection of Puss' eyes in the sickles during the first fight, with death's face visible behind them, and then death's eyes being reflected by them in the final fight, with puss visible behind them
Two things; when he’s tapping the wanted poster and Puss says outright that he “laughs in the face of death,” he scratches the poster in direct response. Also, the coins on the eyes thing is, itself, not Greek. There was a custom to put payment in the mouth of the dead, but coins on the eyes specifically is closer to a pop culture reference _due to_ that misnomer.
Fun fact: when death said he was there for every death, if you slow down the beginning scene with the crowd doing the wave you can see the wolf standing in the crowd waiting for pusses death.
Some translations!! What Kitty yells to the three bears and Goldi is: "Im gonna make you into bathroom rugs!!" What Puss says to the Wolf at the end: "Until death"
The previous Puss in Boots movie feels like a straight-to-dvd flick This new one feels like both a stylish animation as well as textbook character studies. Stunning work
If the Big Gray Wolf is Death in the flesh, then Perrito comes out as a guardian Angel for the cat because he calmed him down when he had an attack of fear, he did not noticeably penetrate Jack Horner's fortress, helped pass the tests on the map to the star because he had a pure soul, and finally motivated the cat to fight Death, it was he the fearless hero of this story!
I really loved that scene where he saw his life and he sees his mom giving him the boots. That didn't happened in that life, but it'll always be a part of his life no matter wich one.
Yea like most Disney villains have a sob story but Jack Horner literally is just evil and that proves that you can have a Villain whose just pure evil but they have to be entertaining.
26:06 when the bears take the map Kitty says "Im gonna turn you all into bathroom rugs!" when the wolf gets frustrated at the end he says "why did I have to play with my food?" (wich is a reference to the fact that if he hadn't got cocky and steped in Puss would'a drunk himself into death sooner) and Perrito is the exact translation of "doggy" did I miss anything?
It's the biggest highest grossing animated movie of 2022, $252 million dollars against a $100 million dollar budget. It also received positive reviews.
@rommix0 Technically $90 million is the films budget and it grossed $110.2 million in the United States and Canada, and $141.1 million in International markets with a worldwide gross of $252 million dollars.
@rommix0 On the contrary, the most recent Dreamworks films following Comcast's acquisition of the studio in 2016 have been within $65-100 million range so roughly on par with Illumination's budget at $60-85 million compared to the $125-165 million they used to have before the Comcast acquisition. So while it did open below expectations at $26 million due to _Avatar: The Way of Water_ and Winter Storm Elliot it was able to outgross it’s domestic budget due to word of mouth and also School Holidays. Now compared DreamWorks animation's current budget to the budgets of the more recent Walt Disney Animation Studios who have them in the $150-180 million dollar range and Pixar who have their budgets of their films in the $150-200 million dollars.
DreamWorks does such a fantastic job with their villains. Death was genuinely terrifying even before we even knew who he was. I love that as a kids animated film, it's still very much an enjoyable movie for adults.
actually Shrek franchise and puss and boots as spin off never make produce movies for children. it's always been for adult but for the whole family. if they make it for children, the result will be similar to Disney movie since tangled (2011), there's no morality for adult to learn
Yknow, while the Chinese celebrate the Year of the Rabbit, we Vietnamese actually celebrate the Year of the Cat! I think it is very fitting how Puss in boots came out in theaters in 2022 with so little notion and then became such a hit once it hit streaming in 2023 :)
The panic attack. I've never seen something so real. The fear, at that moment, there's really nothing like it, how afraid you can get however fearless you may be. Even remembering that makes me go numb and afraid.
Y'know, I just realized, I can't remember what the others are, but isn't Perrito having "Pockets of Posies" actually really fucking dark, but subtly? I remember learning that whole nursery rhyme or whatever was actually a metaphor for the Black Plague.
i remember hearing this, too!!! unfortunately, the original meaning for the nursery rhyme is more ambiguous since there are sooo many different varieties of the tune. that meaning for the song came up much later than the song itself, nearly 600 years after the song's first popularity!! it could definitely be a hint at the contemporary myth about the Black Plague, but the actual history behind the song is left up to speculation ^^
@colt " ring around the Rosie pockets full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down" it's about the Black death ( aka bubonic plague -1346 to 1353- ) I'm not sure what ring around the Rosie means but pocket full of posies refers to when the plague doctor would fill there masks with flowers and herbs ( believe being that the smell from the flowers would clean the air, people also didn't take a bath in order to keep their poors clogged ), in order not to get sick, ashes ashes we all fall down refers to the house being burnt when everyone inside was sick, and if I remember correctly they also burned the bodies of the dead in a big whole, kinda like a bombfire
i'm gonna say dreamworks is the last animation studios who did great movies. we already saw how Disney, Pixar, WB already lost their ability to produce great animation. those studios pushing more agenda than making a great animations
This movie was truly a surprise Ever since the bar scene, I had a hunch that the movie was gonna be different from what we've been recently having in the animation industry. I loved every second of it. Every character is awesome, even the antagonists. Some fun facts I like, - Death can be seen on the side during the scene of Puss counting his deaths, the border design by the numbers has his image. - Mama Luna is literally the doctor's mother My favorite: fanarts of an old Puss on his deathbed had been made and in them Death approaches him once more, and they greet each other like old friends.
The guy who voices the wolf is Wagner Moura, he's a very famous brazilian because he's a great actor, He has participated in several novelas and also participated in one of the most famous films in Brazil. He also speaks Spanish I think? Cause he's his accent is very good.. I am very happy to see someone from my country being successful around the world, Mainly because he voiced this character :)
@@Shinobi0Gamer Wow, I didn't know that.. My man speaks Portuguese, Spanish and English fluently and is incredibly good at acting, I wish I was like that too XD
26:04 I think the reason why Goldie’s map wasn’t as bad as puss or kitty was because her whole story is for things to be “just right”, so the path she’d want is that with least resistance
If ya'll didn't notice, he had black lines run down his face when he was crying in the rain. 🤣 He canonically puts on eyeliner and that will never not make me laugh. 🤣😭
ever since I heard it mentioned, I can't stop looking at the corners of the number frames when Puss goes over his 8 deaths. the corners literally have Death the Wolf there, he always was watching.
I like how the characters have different accents like goldie and the bears english accent and the little conscience grasshoppers Jimmy Stewarts voice style, and a big hint of a sequel at the end.
38:15 to be fair this is traditional duel wielding if my memory is correct. The smaller blade is used as a defensive tool without off balancing the duelist.
i love how you said "jimmy stewart impression" to the jimminy cricket grasshopper because thats exactly what i was thinking LMAOO also the concept of this death is just so... good. wow. he's mad that puss didnt appreciate his past lives. thats so auuuggg
I got to see this at my college and we had a q&a about it with the director and he's doing Kung Fu Panda 4 next, I really hope this animation style carries over some
Death was such an amazing character. Puss in boots avoided deaths claws many times, whenever he was at deaths door he had gotten away. And the death whistling is so amazing, the fact that puss in boots fighting back against death shows the will to live, Death has decided he will have puss in boots one way or another regardless if he lives or dies its only a matter of time. And the voice actor sure was good.
The 3d was slightly flattened by removing the hardness of lines along with the handling of the light which made the color a little bit more flat... that is what made us feel like it had an air of 2d
I do love death's introduction in this film, and the way the path reflects the personality and desires of the person holding the map. Puss's revolves around his ego and lives, Kitty's around her abandonement isuses, Perrito's around his sunny view of life regardless of the trauma he's gone through and the bears about home and family. Also . . . Little Jack Horner Sat in the corner, Eating a Christmas pie; He put in his thumb, And pulled out a plum, And said, "What a good boy am I!"
7:35 - Something I've never noticed is that when puss mentions laughing at the face of death, the big bad wolf tears the paper with his claws in anger, nice detail
Has anyone else noticed that when Death appears standing on those rocks when they are struggling to rescue Perrito, his silhouette together with the environment around him seems to create the shape of a skull?
I loved this movie so much. Animation was spectacular, voice cast was great, and story was perfect. Perrito was also the perfect side character. Everyone deserves a friend like Perrito. ❤❤❤
The dramatic shift between tones when the wolf is on screen as opposed to when his not is absolutely nuts. Not only do the characters take him seriously, so does the entire direction of the film. Hes an unstoppable force, and the movie wants you to know that, and its just absolutely brilliant direction
I like the "new" very important themes this movie tackled, also having the preverbial balls to make a character like Death and having the main character bleed. There's also, with Goldie apreciating what she already has, in this case a family that may not be biological but loves her to bits. Puss has anxiety, panic attacks cuz he's afraid of dying but death is inevitable, we will all face it but it's best to be ready and calm, not scared. Kitty was dealing with massive trust issues cuz she had been cheated repeatedly but throught started to learn that others DO care about her. Now Jack Horner, heh, I think the message was some people are simply corrupted, we may try and try and try to help them but some are just not salvageable
Naturally, because technically there's no way to determine how many viewers (of these react videos) have already seen the source firsthand, vs. who might be watching the react _instead of_ the source directly.
@@Stratelier I know why, but some are more moderated than others. This is one of those movies that has been really controlled. I can't blame them though because I totally use reactions to watch stuff sometimes 💀
Technically they all got their wish. Goldilocks found her true family, which was the bears all along, kitty finally found someone to trust, and puss ended up getting another life bc death didn't kill him.
I I REALLY can't wait to see the whole gang together. Huh,the kids should be older now too...hopefully they arnt horrible stereotypes. *glares at iceage franchise*
you know what happened to scrat movie right? Disney bought fox and dissolved that studios. they told animation department to do last movie they want but with little budget
I Don’t understand a lot of Spanish, but I laughed when I realized that when Kitty was yelling angrily at the bears she told them she’d make them all into a rug for her bathroom haha.
_Puss in Boots: The Last Wish_ joins alongside _The Empire Strikes Back, The Dark Knight, Top Gun: Maverick_ and _Shrek 2_ where the sequel is better than the first film. But without a doubt the highlight of the film wasn’t the story but the animation as compared to the first Puss in Boots film this gives off a 2D cel shaded look very reminiscent to the visuals seen in _Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse_ and _Arcane_ especially the former as the filmmaker for this film cite Spider-Verse for the visuals in _The Last Wish_ especially during the fight scenes where the animation is drawn in twos.
Guys, I was at the theater with my kids, I was crying 😢 we had a red cat, my chubby beautiful kiwi, my mate, he helped us a lot, he made us feel better, unfortunately he got sick and it was such an horrible experience, I was crying pampering him while he got worse and worse... the last scene when he said something like "a life, an only one with you" I started sobbing, our kiwi had one life and he gave us su much, we miss him. Ps. Kiwi brought to us a stray identical to kitty and my brother's dog is a half wolf... they were there 😭😭🥲👌
Jack Horner is from a nursery rhyme. "Little Jack Horner sat in a corner, eating a Christmas pie. He put in his thumb, pulled out a plumb, & said 'What a good boy am I?'"
Two things; 1: They didn't even need to show Far Far Away at the end. That music brought back so many memories; I haven't seen Shrek since the 2nd one. 2: This is my second favourite interpretation of Death, surpassed only by Kindred in League.
Dreamworks is on a roll in 2022, with this and “The Bad Guys” Also, question, is it alright if I make requests for animated films you should watch, specifically from last year?
You can see Death is on every death scene of Puss, He was with the crowd watching Puss fighting the Giant, when the crowd does the wave, and every death counter, he is on the of the corners of the death counter designs
The fight with the giant at the start of the movie probably is a reference to The Legend of Beowulf. Where the loud music wakes up a monster called Grendel who lives outside the city
I love this movie not only because the storyline and the animation is spectacular, it feels like DreamWorks made the franchise age with the viewers. It's still a children's movie, but a lot of it is for the adult audience that grew up watching Shrek
This is such a great movie, the best since Shrek 2. And yeah, I swear the fight with the giant was totally an Attack on Titan reference, I have a feeling someone at DreamWorks is a big anime fan and probably saw 'fight against giant in middle of town' on the script and they immediate said "it's perfect for an AOT tribute" which is nice since the anime is meant to finish this year. And yeah, first scene with the wolf, it shows that yes we can have blood in kids films now, though I think because it was a little bit, they could get away with. Loved your reaction as always
I just wanna point out the thing that saved Puss in the fight was Gatito blade from Kitty, which surprised Death. This was a proof that Puss indeed lived his last life, and thus being granted to have it.
I came into this reaction with high expectations and it did not disappoint! 🤩 They really outdid themselves with this sequel. Death was a crazy-awesome villain but I think the three bears were my favorite part of this. All-around epic and heartwarming. 😄😄😄
Especially if you didn't grew up with the english nursery rhymes. I know of some "Mother Goose" charakters because Disney displayed them in short movies but I grew up with different rhymes as a none native speaker.
If you look carefully you can see death is the corner to each of the cards during puss's 8 deaths and at the beginning fight scene with the giant, you can see death in the top right corner of scene amongst the crowd.
Every movie reaction where Puss in Boots makes an appearance, all I hear is James' wrong pronounciation of the word "puss". Still makes me laugh my head off! 😂
All the characters in this movie are great, but I especially love Mama and Papa Bear, hell a great wish would have been, that every child has parents like these.
I realize that the map was adjusting itself based on the wishes of the people that held it to protect itself. For Puss, he wished for more lives, and his map included the cave of lost souls. For Kitty, she wanted someone she could trust, and her map had eternal loneliness on it. Goldi wanted a family, and her map led her to the bear's cabin, showing her that she already had what she wanted right beside her, the map was probably hoping this would deter her from continuing to seek out the wish. Perrito's map was pretty and fancy and easy because he didn't have a wish, or any sort of greed for something, he was happy with what he had, so there was no reason for the map to lead him astray to protect the star.
Perrito had a wish for friends, he just never said it, same with mama bear having a wish. And if you look everyone got their wish including all the villians.

Aaah copyright!! Thank you for still trying to get this video out-

It's okay i'll watch it again🤣❤
I love how they settled with the name Perrito, which is essentially just a variant of "dog", because both Puss and Kitty have names that are just variants of "cat"... they really are a team in the end!
"Perrito" it's literally just "doggy" or "puppy" :'3
Just like donkey's name is literally donkey
Perrito means little dog / puppy
@@7svn. It's more like doggy but yeah, a diminutive.
I'd also include Shrek himself. His name is derived from the term Schreck, meaning "terror" or "fright" in Yiddish/German, which as an ogre, is what the world literally thinks of him.
Also, Dragon. She's literally a Dragon.
It's probably just me but I think Kitty lied about not showing up to the wedding either just to spare Puss' feelings. Because she acted very angry in the beginning and was now nonchalant about it after she heard his conversation with Perrito.
I like that theory
It makes sense. Unlike most movies that use tension as filler, this movie shows that she was hurt in more ways than one. But she doesn’t overreact and become evil in many ways. Instead, she understands that it was a daunting thing for puss and the fact that he is willing to show vulnerability means he’s changed. Also, it could be that she was physically there, but not truly there in an emotional sense.
Same
I think she did show up but left when she saw him running away
Wait, people think she really didn't show up in the wedding? I thought that was an obvious lie
The way they had sooo many characters but not a single one felt under-utilized and they actually made me invested in all 3 main groups
Hell yeah, they’re as versatile as Marvel
@@masternoob9673 marvel sucks

The best moments that touch to the core:
1. The Puss said that he had never been touched by blade. Death is the first to wound him. This is both a metaphor and another indicator of how much more serious things have become.
2. When a Wolf puts coins on his eyes, this is an obvious reference to Charon and many other burial traditions.
3. The fact that the mother bear is ready to do everything for the sake of the desire of the Goldie, even though she wants another family for herself... I melted.
4. The entirity of Perrito's existence
5. The entirety of death's character
While 3 makes sense. She is legit a mama bear.
@@mrgroovy5113 i thought mama bear died in shrek 1
@@estelaangeles2346 Perhaps it’s a different incarnation of her and the 3 bears that were seen in the first Shrek film.
Even the same can be said for Rumpelstiltskin's design in Shrek Forever After despite previously appearing in Shrek The Third.
Death’s line after the final fight with Puss I believe can be translated to “ Why the hell did I play with my food.”
Yeah, it is.
Wow!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Just goes to prove that Death could have taken Puss' last life anytime he wanted but He *_Loved the smell of Fear_*
Should be more like "why the hell do I have to play with my food"
As in he's annoyed that he can't just straight up kill puss since he changed, and be it as it may be, death respects life and those who value it.
Either that or my Spanish, well, Spanish sucks. I'm Mexican so idk ;-;
@@owoflux6025 so he regrets the whole hunting him thing, which caused puss to change?
I like the quote, "from one orphan to another," because it says something very interesting about Perrito. He may have appeared at first to be in denial about his tragic backstory, but he actually is aware of how awful his past is, but refuses to let it affect him.
Maybe so... Maybe so
Or it could be Perrito knows he got no parents
Big Jack Horner's depiction in the movie is weirdly fitting. As the nursery rhyme "Little Jack Horner" was allegedly written to mock the real-life Thomas Horner, who was, according to the history books, a greedy, lying, swindling land dealer.
Ooooh!!! Intriguing!!!
Which is essentially EVERY land dealer.
Everyday I keep finding new things I love about this movie
I would not be surprised if this is not a coincidence and the writers knew beforehand, although with any movie so packed to the gills with references some of them must be coincidences after all.
@@dragonmagoz if it was other writers i would disagree, simply cause of the amount of poorly written sludge that comes out recently, but these writers that created something this good genuinely might have done it on purpose
Fun fact that was pointed out by somebody who worked on the film: each and every hit in the fight scenes is timed to sync perfectly with the beat of the music.
i noticed this with the giant fight how the stomps were perfectly in rhythm and i was like dam. that makes the fights scenes so much more immersive it was pure genius

Ah yes sherk
Yes
I can't wait for Puss to see Shrek and Donkey again
I always saw Shrek’s Theme-Music as DreamWorks IN GENERAL’s Theme-Music, since they almost always play it whenever they show the DreamWorks logo at the beginning of a movie.
That means we will get Shrek 5 soon.
This movie is simply spectacular. It has gorgeous animation, top notch fight choreography, great characters, a great arc for Puss, and one of if not the best DreamWorks antagonists ever. I like how, at the start, Puss was bragging about having "never been touched by a blade." So the moment Death was actually able to cut him, Puss became a scared, anxious mess. It's the moment he realized he's not invincible after all.
"Puss became a scared, anxious mess"... Missed opportunity to call him a scaredy-cat, haha!
@@moonlightray8493 nope, he missed the opportunity to call him "Pussy"
@@moonlightray8493 That would’ve instantly made the movie a perfect 10/10
the fact death isnt a antagonist but a force that must be overcome is always a treat to me cause not only your doing the main storyline your also trying to understand death
@@fredgiticecavern2510
No, Death IS an antagonist. An antagonist is a character that opposes the protagonist, Puss, because he kept bragging about how he laughs in the face of Death. But Death is not a villain. That goes to Jack Horner.
This movie has one of the most badass interpretations of Death I love his design and his voice. The fact that he pops up throughout the movie and when you hear that whistle your like "RUN!".
Mhm I do agree, it's also I believe that death is obsessed with puss in boots because of his nine lives, of how many times he's escaped from his clutches.
From what I remember he usually shows up when someone dies apart from his first appearance.
I may be wrong, but is he whistling the song Puss was singing?
@Alextruck856 hmmm i wonder how hard it would be to find someone with the name ALEX TRUCK
He was interpreted by Wagner Moura, the actor that did Pablo Escobar in Narcos.
How many other people noticed the "horses" pulling horner's vehicle are actually unicorns with their horns chopped off? (I also love how even Puss's past lives start to get nervous once death shows up)
The only person to wound puss while he was fighting
The wolfs comments/actions and the past lives are also synced up too. Like how the wolf talks about how intoxicating fear is and the drunk Puss says 'it is??' excitedly. And then the gambling Puss accuses him of cheating. Oh and the wolf is easily able to push over the supposedly strong Puss.
Also, the Phoenix tears up when being used as a flamethrower
A good twist makes you go back and realize all the things you missed
1. Death appears before his fight with Puss in the bar. When the crowd does the wave during the giant fight, he is watching from an alley in the top left.
2. The doctor/barber/veterinarian blows out a candle to symbolize death. Just before Death first reveals himself to Puss, a candle goes out.
3. Death putting coins on his eyes is reference to ancient cultures putting coins on the eyes of the deceased. The ancient Greeks were most famous for this tradition. They believed you needed to pay a ferryman, Charon, to cross the Styx River into the afterlife. Otherwise you'd be stuck in purgatory/limbo.
4.Certain dialogue also alludes to the wolf's true identity:
Puss: Puss in Boots laughs in the face of death, right, bounty hunter?
Death: So, I've heard.
5. The wolf being Death also explains his supernatural powers, such as, being able to teleport and not showing up on the map.
Also Death never showed up while Puss is in retirement because Puss wasn't putting his life in danger.
He also walked passed the Fall Star edge which killed others that did
He also holds his sickles in the way the Egyptian Gods of Death do.
Obvious notes of Death’s powers.
1. Being able to walk through the wishing star’s dome, which killed the last of Jack Jorner’s minions.
2. Shattered the purple mirror with just his voice alone.
3. Able to appear within the crystal dome, even though it shouldn’t have been possible as it was blocked.
Worth noting that the coins on the eyes thing isn't historically accurate, but it is culturally widespread as true these days so it's still a great reference
I Just loved Jack horner, it gave us a secret ultra important message, sometimes the villain is not misunderstood, sometimes he's just pure evil because he wants to, and that reflects in real life too, sometimes people are jerks because they find it fun and not because they had a tough past
Not exactly, in real life people are jerks for reasons too. Trauma, mental issues, past abuse and ect. But truth of life is - sometimes it doesn’t matter why are you like this
this is extremely true, theres a point where the "misunderstood" villain is either overused and/or straight up done wrong entirely, some people are just evil and that's that
@@maximisationisreal439 yeah it usually has ties to those things but not always, sometimes it comes from places of things like greed too
@@maximisationisreal439 Well they didnt say that some people are jerks no reason, they said that some ppl are jerks for fun without going through any of those examples you mentioned
Agreed
If you notice the Ethical Bug burn the last part of the map, it is not just because Jack Horner denied his help. It is also because when Jack flick him, one of his leg and wing got torn off, causing him to be disabled and can’t fly. That why the Phoenix has to carried him at the end
Woaaah whuuuut?
But also, crickets do actually fall apart at the limbs quite easily
He flew onto baby bear's nose, he can.
37:46 I love Death’s sickle staff. A unique weapon I’ve never seen before in a movie with amazing sound design to go along with it. Such a great villain. 10/10
I liked the staff too. It is very unconventional, but uses thrusts and shoves like it's a spear, which means that even if the weapon is very unique, the moves still feel very natural.
Agreed, I also thought it was cool how he turned them into brass knuckles too
i agree, though i hesitte to call him a "villian". he is DEATH, aka a force of nature that does not care if you been good or bad. true he is chasing puss here, something most reapers dont do, but thats cause as he says puss never appreciated his life and when he died, he thought nothing of it. he beilived he was immortal, something any death incarnation would HATE.
@@borinaandfriends8924
Mhm. Death is an Antagonist, not a Villain. That goes to Jack Horner.
My theory is they wanted to upgrade death from the simple scythe to a more modern weapon of that time period so they gave him 2 sickles that he could combine into his “scythe” staff

You go into this movie, thinking “this is a kids movie” however, you come out of it saying “THIS IS A KIDS MOVIE!?”
There was a time when stuff meant for kids was not all dumbed down pg-7 BS. I mean, if you take just about any fairy tale in the original version instead of the current emasculated ones, they're pretty dark (to perform the educational function of warning children of the dangers of the outside world, primarily).
@@BoraHorzaGobuchul Also because they were not originally for children but entertainment for adults. People had no TV but storytellers.
Reminder that content being animated (or rated in accordance with guidelines) does not immediately mean it’s for kids.
I love the fact that someone saw the scene of Puss coughing up a hairball and said "You know who would be great for this guy to fight? The literal grim reaper"
Heya ! Here are some spanish notes if you had curiosity !
2:37 Cordova and Del Mar are actual cities and municipalities of Spain ! (Only that is Cordoba and not Cordova)
8:55 The song that plays here it's a Bolero called "¿Por qué vas?" (Why do you leave?) from the Guatemalan singer Gaby Moreno. It's a cry for someone that's leaving, that could be Puss crying for himself 'cause he choosed to retire, leaving the legend behind
"Perrito" is a way to say "Lil Dog" or "Doggie" actually, there's something cute about how they call Perrito all the way in the movie: At first, they just call him "Perro" that's just straight up "Dog" ( 13:08 No affection) but later, they add what we call "sufijo apreciativo" or "appreciative suffix" if you will, that's a little addition to a noun that's more affective and close (Example: Gato, Gatito) and this is a proof that they started to like him more and more as the adventure goes ( 26:31 With affection)
[Edit: This is also called "sufijo diminutivo" or "diminutive suffix" to refer to something small or tiny, and since Perrito is in fact, a puppy, it's logical to refer him like this. But I do prefer my first observation 'cause it's more wholesome]
18:42 "Ay, que miedo" means "Geez, how scary"
24:21 "Gatito Blade" Means "Kitty Blade"
24:28 When Puss throws the stick sword, he says "Vaya con Dios" that is a way to say "Godbye" or "Go with God" It's a phrase mostly used by old people to bless their beloved ones when they went out of home or when they get separated to reach their destinies safe and sound. This is used not just in Spain but in Latin America as well, thanks to the colonialism that brought christianity here by Spanish people themselves
26:06 What Kitty shouted to the three bears when they stole the map was: "I'm going to turn you into bathroom's carpets" that could be a reference about the Mama Bear on the first Shrek movie, that had that horrific fate
27:00 Santa Coloma it's also a real municipality of Spain, but they are many of them with a different last name (Santa Coloma de Gramanet, Santa Coloma de Farnés, Santa Coloma de Queralt, etc)
37:53 "Bien, muy bien" means "Well, very well" (JUST SSSSSASSY)
38:46 "Hasta la muerte" could mean "Until the death" or "To the death"
And a funfact about the Spanish translation is that Goldilocks and the Three Bears have an Argentinan accent instead of an Australian
[Edit: Now I figured out that it was in fact British instead of Australian, my bad 😅]
Hope you learned something useful today, homies ! Hasta otra !
They've got more of a Southern British, think London or the like, kind of a mix of cockney and chav, for lack of a better way to put it

I like how they included the nursery rhyme for Jack because they knew it was an obscure one that not a lot of people would know, but they didn’t include the context for Cricket bc come on, you know who that is. Good balance of trusting your audience vs filling them in when they need it
Also I done The cockney accents lol. Between that, her attitude, and her character design, Goldi really reminds me of like a Fable 2 character. Gotta love that
Dreamworks gives us a sequel to a spinoff of a sequel and it's up there with one of the best films they've ever done. We really don't need a Shrek sequel, but if they can pull it off on this level, heck yes I'll see it. They set the bar damn high though. Spiderverse animation style alone won't do it. They are going to need a story as good as they had for this.
I’ll never get over how this brilliant main character was just a simple side character from a sequel movie! XD
This. I wasn’t interested in more shrek until this movie. I’m actually more interested in stories within the universe of shrek, like this, than a continuation of shrek.
But if they do do it, I hope it’s good.
LOTR was a spinoff and better than the original book
this movie is such a gift for us. The animation is incredible. I get the inspiration from spider-verse, but the paintbrush effect makes it sooo unique. Also I love how the story and the characters are handled. we spend the first ten minutes conscructing puss' character but once he's on that last life and death is finally able to touch him, with a blade nonetheless, all of that building just collapses and puss is left destroyed, terrified for his life. When I saw that scene, my god was I on the edge of my seat gasping. not even talking about the panic attak scene, such a good portrait , or every time you hear that whistle and death appears on screen, it just gave me chills. Man I wish there were more animated movies as bold and mature as this one
Its new style looks like it came right from a fairy tale, which makes sense.
@@mrgroovy5113 arcane tho
Florence Pugh is Goldilocks and she does amazing! I didn't even realize it was her until I saw the credits. Also When Death shows up in the bar, me and my friend who saw it in theaters were like (Ohhhhh no, we are not old enough for this PG movie) :D
Same. And I thought it was some else until I watched the end
I guess this movie fit for that PG Rated.
Mama bear's voice is also a perfect cast
What’s interesting is that puss beat death by finally cherishing the one life he had left, and the whole reason death was after him is because puss “laughed in the face of death” and had no care for his 9 lives, even death himself says 9 lives seems absurd.
He didn’t really “beat” Death. He evens says he knows he can’t defeat him. Death let him live because he saw Puss realized the value of the life he had left.
@@Zikkar Puss did beat wolf
5:57 You can see Death during Puss' 8 lives recount. And prior to that, you can hear 8 bells go off during his fight with the giant of Del Mar.
26:06 she basically said she's gonna turn them into bathroom rugs which is a reference to Shrek 1 where another three bears were taken away by Farquaad and the Mother bear was turned into a rug.
I'm guessing no one else can Death unless they're near death or at death, hence the end where everyone's lives were in grave danger putting them into a near death experience.
Another thing, whether it's intentional or not, I love how Mama Luna put mittens on the cats instead of declawing of them.
i dont see him during the recount, only during the fight with the giant.
@@superaddict6618in the cards counting Puss’ deaths, the corners are Death with his sickles crossed in front of him.
@@phantasticgoose why is mama bear alive?
@@estelaangeles2346 idk maybe it was another three bears or something.
Also when the crowd is doing the wave during the giant fight. Death is in the background watching.
Death (aka The Wolf or Lobo) is without a doubt one of DreamWorks best but also terrifying antagonists in years and Wagner Moura (a Brazilian actor) who is best known Pablo Escobar in _Narcos_ really knock it out of the park. Interestingly despite his actions in the film Death is by no means a villain as he has a sense of honor and nobility, as his main reason for pursuing Puss in the first place was to punish him for arrogantly squandering his eight lives with reckless abandon, concluding from this that it would be best to kill him before he wasted his final life. 🐺🐺
Interestingly, before Puss in Boots meets him at the bar, Death appears in a blink and you miss moment when Puss was battling the Giant where he was in a slight dark corner and compared to the Crowd he was not cheering for Puss but watching him to see if he gets killed and hints of him of his wolf head and sickles were seen on Puss' death card numbers.
Finally, Death's quote in Spanish when he was defeated by Puss: _"¿POR QUE DIABLOS FUI A JUGAR CON MI COMIDA?!?"_ translates to _"WHY THE HELL DID I PLAY WITH MY FOOD?!?"_ in English.
this and Guillermo's Pinocchio are some of the biggest and best surprises of modern entertainment, definitely as far as animated movies are concerned, they both came out towards the end of 2022 so very recent and showed everybody how well done things can be when you got people who care working on it and they know what they are doing :) its also very interesting how similar these movies are, they both deal with death in their own way and they do a great job :) here the character of DEATH is quite something, already achieved legendary status :D lets hope they can keep this up for the future :)
And both are beating Disney at their own game of adapting fairy tales. And both have Pinocchio.
I like how many references there are to the Wolf being Death before the actual reveal. Like when he asks for Puss’s autograph and taps the word “dead” over and over for the signature, the skull pattern on his face, and his use of sickles. But the best one is when he does the “I’m watching you” gesture, he places two coins over his eyes, which is an Ancient Greek custom. The coins would be placed over the eyes of the deceased so they would be able to pay Charon, the Ferryman of the Dead, and make it into the Underworld
Also, complete side note, but making Death be Brazilian and the actor they got to play him just makes him go that much harder. I really hope we see more of him in future movies, but not to an overused degree. Keep him intimidating, maybe have him show up during Puss’s final appearance to aid him in a final stand before Death finally takes him. I think it would be kinda cool to see Puss and Death become homies by the end
When Death shows up in the fight where Jack is using his crossbow, the rocks around him make the shape of a skull as well- Side not, I think the coins on the eyes are a common mistake, its actually supposed to be coins on the tongue- but the eye's thing is in pop culture now and it looks great here.
Another good moment- when the doctor/barber/etc tells Puss he died, he blows out a candle- in the bar after the bartender leaves a candle on the chandelier goes out, then we hear the whistling and death shows up.
Finally I love the bit that death has Puss's lives crossed out on one of his sickles- and its the same sickle that puss blocks with his gatito blade and lets push him into reach of his hat and sword.
Other good moments include seeing the reflection of Puss' eyes in the sickles during the first fight, with death's face visible behind them, and then death's eyes being reflected by them in the final fight, with puss visible behind them
Two things; when he’s tapping the wanted poster and Puss says outright that he “laughs in the face of death,” he scratches the poster in direct response.
Also, the coins on the eyes thing is, itself, not Greek. There was a custom to put payment in the mouth of the dead, but coins on the eyes specifically is closer to a pop culture reference _due to_ that misnomer.
Fun fact: when death said he was there for every death, if you slow down the beginning scene with the crowd doing the wave you can see the wolf standing in the crowd waiting for pusses death.
Some translations!!
What Kitty yells to the three bears and Goldi is: "Im gonna make you into bathroom rugs!!"
What Puss says to the Wolf at the end: "Until death"
That's super cool!!
Movie was a 10/10 and I love the ending with that Shrek reveal too. Like holy hell to think of a Puss in boots movie being so great like this

If the Big Gray Wolf is Death in the flesh, then Perrito comes out as a guardian Angel for the cat because he calmed him down when he had an attack of fear, he did not noticeably penetrate Jack Horner's fortress, helped pass the tests on the map to the star because he had a pure soul, and finally motivated the cat to fight Death, it was he the fearless hero of this story!
Right on! I loved Perrito.
Such an interesting way to see it!!
Yes!!!!!
I really loved that scene where he saw his life and he sees his mom giving him the boots. That didn't happened in that life, but it'll always be a part of his life no matter wich one.
Yea like most Disney villains have a sob story but Jack Horner literally is just evil and that proves that you can have a Villain whose just pure evil but they have to be entertaining.
26:06 when the bears take the map Kitty says "Im gonna turn you all into bathroom rugs!" when the wolf gets frustrated at the end he says "why did I have to play with my food?" (wich is a reference to the fact that if he hadn't got cocky and steped in Puss would'a drunk himself into death sooner) and Perrito is the exact translation of "doggy"

It's the biggest highest grossing animated movie of 2022, $252 million dollars against a $100 million dollar budget. It also received positive reviews.
Actually shainewhite, _Minions: The Rise of Gru_ is the highest grossing Animated film of 2022 as it grossed $959 million dollars.
It’s actually 90 mil is this a box office success? I don’t know
@rommix0 Technically $90 million is the films budget and it grossed $110.2 million in the United States and Canada, and $141.1 million in International markets with a worldwide gross of $252 million dollars.
@rommix0 On the contrary, the most recent Dreamworks films following Comcast's acquisition of the studio in 2016 have been within $65-100 million range so roughly on par with Illumination's budget at $60-85 million compared to the $125-165 million they used to have before the Comcast acquisition. So while it did open below expectations at $26 million due to _Avatar: The Way of Water_ and Winter Storm Elliot it was able to outgross it’s domestic budget due to word of mouth and also School Holidays.
Now compared DreamWorks animation's current budget to the budgets of the more recent Walt Disney Animation Studios who have them in the $150-180 million dollar range and Pixar who have their budgets of their films in the $150-200 million dollars.
DreamWorks does such a fantastic job with their villains. Death was genuinely terrifying even before we even knew who he was. I love that as a kids animated film, it's still very much an enjoyable movie for adults.
actually Shrek franchise and puss and boots as spin off never make produce movies for children. it's always been for adult but for the whole family.
if they make it for children, the result will be similar to Disney movie since tangled (2011), there's no morality for adult to learn
@@boboboy8189 no morality?? Debatable
@@tobsonasanya4765 Exactly. Encanto has a lot morality to learn for everyone.
“Take your time and where they appreciate what’s right in front of you” love this
En realidad, Perrito dijo que "really appreciate"
Yknow, while the Chinese celebrate the Year of the Rabbit, we Vietnamese actually celebrate the Year of the Cat! I think it is very fitting how Puss in boots came out in theaters in 2022 with so little notion and then became such a hit once it hit streaming in 2023 :)
The panic attack. I've never seen something so real. The fear, at that moment, there's really nothing like it, how afraid you can get however fearless you may be. Even remembering that makes me go numb and afraid.
Y'know, I just realized, I can't remember what the others are, but isn't Perrito having "Pockets of Posies" actually really fucking dark, but subtly?
I remember learning that whole nursery rhyme or whatever was actually a metaphor for the Black Plague.
That’s correct it is a reference to the black plague
i remember hearing this, too!!! unfortunately, the original meaning for the nursery rhyme is more ambiguous since there are sooo many different varieties of the tune. that meaning for the song came up much later than the song itself, nearly 600 years after the song's first popularity!!
it could definitely be a hint at the contemporary myth about the Black Plague, but the actual history behind the song is left up to speculation ^^
And the river of relaxation could also related to the one he was thrown in too.
@colt " ring around the Rosie pockets full of posies ashes ashes we all fall down" it's about the Black death ( aka bubonic plague -1346 to 1353- ) I'm not sure what ring around the Rosie means but pocket full of posies refers to when the plague doctor would fill there masks with flowers and herbs ( believe being that the smell from the flowers would clean the air, people also didn't take a bath in order to keep their poors clogged ), in order not to get sick, ashes ashes we all fall down refers to the house being burnt when everyone inside was sick, and if I remember correctly they also burned the bodies of the dead in a big whole, kinda like a bombfire
@@duykhangtran4406Don't forget quick and easy solutions, like the sock rock combo
Just watched this in theaters. It makes me happy to see that DreamWorks is still making great animated movies
i'm gonna say dreamworks is the last animation studios who did great movies. we already saw how Disney, Pixar, WB already lost their ability to produce great animation. those studios pushing more agenda than making a great animations
@@boboboy8189 💯 exactly
Now i believe Dreamworks for the nest masterpieces
@@boboboy8189 That can't be generalized in my opinion.
This movie was truly a surprise
Ever since the bar scene, I had a hunch that the movie was gonna be different from what we've been recently having in the animation industry.
I loved every second of it. Every character is awesome, even the antagonists.
Some fun facts I like,
- Death can be seen on the side during the scene of Puss counting his deaths, the border design by the numbers has his image.
- Mama Luna is literally the doctor's mother
My favorite: fanarts of an old Puss on his deathbed had been made and in them Death approaches him once more, and they greet each other like old friends.
The guy who voices the wolf is Wagner Moura, he's a very famous brazilian because he's a great actor, He has participated in several novelas and also participated in one of the most famous films in Brazil. He also speaks Spanish I think? Cause he's his accent is very good.. I am very happy to see someone from my country being successful around the world, Mainly because he voiced this character :)
Yeah he does speak spanish cause he was pablo escobar in narcos
@@Shinobi0Gamer Wow, I didn't know that.. My man speaks Portuguese, Spanish and English fluently and is incredibly good at acting, I wish I was like that too XD
@@Lucifer33366 don't forget that Antonio Banderas can speak Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and english
@@boboboy8189interesting because I thought he only knew 3 which was English, Spanish & Italian
26:04 I think the reason why Goldie’s map wasn’t as bad as puss or kitty was because her whole story is for things to be “just right”, so the path she’d want is that with least resistance
If ya'll didn't notice, he had black lines run down his face when he was crying in the rain. 🤣
He canonically puts on eyeliner and that will never not make me laugh. 🤣😭
ever since I heard it mentioned, I can't stop looking at the corners of the number frames when Puss goes over his 8 deaths. the corners literally have Death the Wolf there, he always was watching.
I like how the characters have different accents like goldie and the bears english accent and the little conscience grasshoppers Jimmy Stewarts voice style, and a big hint of a sequel at the end.
I love how all the most replayed scenes in the video are all the major scenes with death in them
38:15 to be fair this is traditional duel wielding if my memory is correct. The smaller blade is used as a defensive tool without off balancing the duelist.
I am a 30 year old man and every time i heard that damn whistle i had a chill
7:13 this “what the” *death whistle* “heck” made me laughing for days
"I don't even know if your allowed to show blood in a kids movie"
Rise of the TMNT movie: first time?
Isn't blood sometimes shown in older Disney movies/ short movies?
i love how you said "jimmy stewart impression" to the jimminy cricket grasshopper because thats exactly what i was thinking LMAOO also the concept of this death is just so... good. wow. he's mad that puss didnt appreciate his past lives. thats so auuuggg
I got to see this at my college and we had a q&a about it with the director and he's doing Kung Fu Panda 4 next, I really hope this animation style carries over some
I CANT WAIT!!!
If what you're saying is true, then I guess I wouldn't have to worry about Kung Fu Panda 4 potentially being bad, I guess.
Death was such an amazing character.
Puss in boots avoided deaths claws many times, whenever he was at deaths door he had gotten away.
And the death whistling is so amazing, the fact that puss in boots fighting back against death shows the will to live, Death has decided he will have puss in boots one way or another regardless if he lives or dies its only a matter of time.
And the voice actor sure was good.
Wolf was clearly bitter about it
And legends never die
The 3d was slightly flattened by removing the hardness of lines along with the handling of the light which made the color a little bit more flat... that is what made us feel like it had an air of 2d
I do love death's introduction in this film, and the way the path reflects the personality and desires of the person holding the map. Puss's revolves around his ego and lives, Kitty's around her abandonement isuses, Perrito's around his sunny view of life regardless of the trauma he's gone through and the bears about home and family. Also . . .
Little Jack Horner
Sat in the corner,
Eating a Christmas pie;
He put in his thumb,
And pulled out a plum,
And said, "What a good boy am I!"
7:35 - Something I've never noticed is that when puss mentions laughing at the face of death, the big bad wolf tears the paper with his claws in anger, nice detail
When Puss is fighting the giant at the beginning you can actually see Death standing in the background.
Has anyone else noticed that when Death appears standing on those rocks when they are struggling to rescue Perrito, his silhouette together with the environment around him seems to create the shape of a skull?
Wow... Not obvious at all ...
I loved this movie so much. Animation was spectacular, voice cast was great, and story was perfect. Perrito was also the perfect side character. Everyone deserves a friend like Perrito. ❤❤❤
I'll have a doggie ❤️❤️
Btw the translation to Lobo Muerto’s dialogue at the end is: “Why the hell did I play with my food?!”
The dramatic shift between tones when the wolf is on screen as opposed to when his not is absolutely nuts. Not only do the characters take him seriously, so does the entire direction of the film. Hes an unstoppable force, and the movie wants you to know that, and its just absolutely brilliant direction
I like the "new" very important themes this movie tackled, also having the preverbial balls to make a character like Death and having the main character bleed.
There's also, with Goldie apreciating what she already has, in this case a family that may not be biological but loves her to bits. Puss has anxiety, panic attacks cuz he's afraid of dying but death is inevitable, we will all face it but it's best to be ready and calm, not scared. Kitty was dealing with massive trust issues cuz she had been cheated repeatedly but throught started to learn that others DO care about her.
Now Jack Horner, heh, I think the message was some people are simply corrupted, we may try and try and try to help them but some are just not salvageable
Wolf was my favorite villain!!!!! I loved the chills I'd get from his whistling!!! Great reaction
Major glow up for both the animation and story. Best animated movie of 2022 behind Del Toro's Pinocchio.
A lot of people having issues watching this on RUclips, I respect the many attempts to get if through 😂
Naturally, because technically there's no way to determine how many viewers (of these react videos) have already seen the source firsthand, vs. who might be watching the react _instead of_ the source directly.
@@Stratelier I know why, but some are more moderated than others. This is one of those movies that has been really controlled. I can't blame them though because I totally use reactions to watch stuff sometimes 💀
Here for round 4, and however many more it takes to stick. This movie’s worth it.
Technically they all got their wish. Goldilocks found her true family, which was the bears all along, kitty finally found someone to trust, and puss ended up getting another life bc death didn't kill him.
I I REALLY can't wait to see the whole gang together.
Huh,the kids should be older now too...hopefully they arnt horrible stereotypes. *glares at iceage franchise*
you know what happened to scrat movie right? Disney bought fox and dissolved that studios. they told animation department to do last movie they want but with little budget
Luckily for us, only disney turns kids into big stereotypes, while dreamworks stays faithful.
The quiet reactor on the left smiled through the entire film. He was as the Brits would say "Chuffed"!
I Don’t understand a lot of Spanish, but I laughed when I realized that when Kitty was yelling angrily at the bears she told them she’d make them all into a rug for her bathroom haha.
_Puss in Boots: The Last Wish_ joins alongside _The Empire Strikes Back, The Dark Knight, Top Gun: Maverick_ and _Shrek 2_ where the sequel is better than the first film. But without a doubt the highlight of the film wasn’t the story but the animation as compared to the first Puss in Boots film this gives off a 2D cel shaded look very reminiscent to the visuals seen in _Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse_ and _Arcane_ especially the former as the filmmaker for this film cite Spider-Verse for the visuals in _The Last Wish_ especially during the fight scenes where the animation is drawn in twos.
Guys, I was at the theater with my kids, I was crying 😢 we had a red cat, my chubby beautiful kiwi, my mate, he helped us a lot, he made us feel better, unfortunately he got sick and it was such an horrible experience, I was crying pampering him while he got worse and worse... the last scene when he said something like "a life, an only one with you" I started sobbing, our kiwi had one life and he gave us su much, we miss him.
Ps. Kiwi brought to us a stray identical to kitty and my brother's dog is a half wolf... they were there 😭😭🥲👌
Jack Horner is from a nursery rhyme. "Little Jack Horner sat in a corner, eating a Christmas pie. He put in his thumb, pulled out a plumb, & said 'What a good boy am I?'"
Two things;
1: They didn't even need to show Far Far Away at the end. That music brought back so many memories; I haven't seen Shrek since the 2nd one.
2: This is my second favourite interpretation of Death, surpassed only by Kindred in League.
Dreamworks is on a roll in 2022, with this and “The Bad Guys”
Also, question, is it alright if I make requests for animated films you should watch, specifically from last year?
You can see Death is on every death scene of Puss, He was with the crowd watching Puss fighting the Giant, when the crowd does the wave, and every death counter, he is on the of the corners of the death counter designs
"She is not my sister"
*smack*
"She is"
The fight with the giant at the start of the movie probably is a reference to The Legend of Beowulf. Where the loud music wakes up a monster called Grendel who lives outside the city
I love this movie not only because the storyline and the animation is spectacular, it feels like DreamWorks made the franchise age with the viewers. It's still a children's movie, but a lot of it is for the adult audience that grew up watching Shrek
I saw this in theaters and it was incredible
Especially with Death, those scenes genuinely caused anxiety
So good
This is such a great movie, the best since Shrek 2. And yeah, I swear the fight with the giant was totally an Attack on Titan reference, I have a feeling someone at DreamWorks is a big anime fan and probably saw 'fight against giant in middle of town' on the script and they immediate said "it's perfect for an AOT tribute" which is nice since the anime is meant to finish this year. And yeah, first scene with the wolf, it shows that yes we can have blood in kids films now, though I think because it was a little bit, they could get away with. Loved your reaction as always
Foreshadowing at its finest is during the Sleeping Giant Fight as the crowd does the Wave: you can see Death just standing and watching with them
I just wanna point out the thing that saved Puss in the fight was Gatito blade from Kitty, which surprised Death.
This was a proof that Puss indeed lived his last life, and thus being granted to have it.
Notice he was playing with Puss up to that point, attacking the things from the legend as well. The boots, the cape, the hat, the sword.
I want to see the guy who voices death share the stage with Willem Dafoe You can't watch performance and not walk away with chills
I came into this reaction with high expectations and it did not disappoint! 🤩 They really outdid themselves with this sequel. Death was a crazy-awesome villain but I think the three bears were my favorite part of this. All-around epic and heartwarming. 😄😄😄
Just here, watching every movie review,reaction and interview about Puss in Boots 2 that i can find here in YT!
Cant get enough of it♥️
No one remembers Jack Horner IRL, so fitting for his character's motivation.
Come on, is the classic nursery rhyme, it was in the book along with the rest of them.
Especially if you didn't grew up with the english nursery rhymes. I know of some "Mother Goose" charakters because Disney displayed them in short movies but I grew up with different rhymes as a none native speaker.
Wow this is the best I ever seen I can't stop laughing my ass off, wow my ribs are hurting from laughing
I loved it, saw it in the theater and was completely surprised by the quality of the story and animation!
If you look carefully you can see death is the corner to each of the cards during puss's 8 deaths and at the beginning fight scene with the giant, you can see death in the top right corner of scene amongst the crowd.
Every movie reaction where Puss in Boots makes an appearance, all I hear is James' wrong pronounciation of the word "puss". Still makes me laugh my head off! 😂
All the characters in this movie are great, but I especially love Mama and Papa Bear, hell a great wish would have been, that every child has parents like these.
I realize that the map was adjusting itself based on the wishes of the people that held it to protect itself. For Puss, he wished for more lives, and his map included the cave of lost souls. For Kitty, she wanted someone she could trust, and her map had eternal loneliness on it. Goldi wanted a family, and her map led her to the bear's cabin, showing her that she already had what she wanted right beside her, the map was probably hoping this would deter her from continuing to seek out the wish. Perrito's map was pretty and fancy and easy because he didn't have a wish, or any sort of greed for something, he was happy with what he had, so there was no reason for the map to lead him astray to protect the star.
Perrito had a wish for friends, he just never said it, same with mama bear having a wish.
And if you look everyone got their wish including all the villians.
25:38 the amount of attention to detail to the wolf is insane, for example, this shot looks similar to a skull, hinting at his identity as death
