@@Burner-Adventure-Chronicles Well, worked for me, although to be fair , I knew Casper was one of her favorite childhood movies . So when I slipped the ring on her fingers as we danced at her family Halloween party , I knew using the line instead of the normal "will you marry me?" was going to work . Her mother and I worked hard on setting it all up, she even planted the idea in my better half's head that her and me should dress like Cat and "Human" Casper AND made the costumes. 🙂
I feel really bad for Casper. He brought Kat's dad back, and he only gets a short period of being human in return. Not even "till midnight" just because he was 12 years old.
The movie came out in 1995 and the trailer stated that for “100 years, he’s wondered the halls of Whipstaff Manor”. He would have been born in 1883 and died in 1895
@Jaegar19Ultima The SLAD story reminded me a bit at the movie CITIZEN KANE Everything ahd changed for Kane after he had treid out his slad, of the ROSEBUD -brand, And at the end the Slad became burned in the Heater while the reporter gave up looking for the meaning of the term ROSEBUD.
I went crazy when I saw this scene, even as an adult when I saw this movie. The boy was so cute and you feel so bad for poor Casper. Why would anyone want to be stuck like that?
@@moxiemaxie3543 The idea of everyone being in aww of him was because of his looks... not simply because he walked down some stairs. he was handsome and he played it increadably well. The idea of pulling this moment off with someone out sides the mold of "attractive" wouldn't make any sense
Its been that long already I remember when this came out on vhs and watching it with my sister's geez I thought getting old would take longer seems just like yesterday.
"Can I keep you?" I'm 42 and don't remember feeling so strong emotions about these scenes like now when I watched this 30 years ago. Such a pleasure watching 90's movies now...
This scene is pretty much a masterclass is composition, blocking, and camera movement. Apart from the way the girls on the dance floor, who damn well look to be in their early 30s, gawk and leer at what is supposed to be a freaking 12-year-old boy, the sequence is just amazing -- the way the actors move as the camera travels through the crowd, the slow burn of the characters walking to the dance floor, and not revealing Casper's face until the viewer can't take it anymore with a perfectly choreographed turn. It's a nice scene on its own merits, the Jordan Hill song fits perfectly, and Christina Ricci totally nails her role, but from a filmmaking perspective, it's very well done, too.
I love Casper's personality so much he really shows not all ghosts are evil and I love how Kat's mom can grant wishes as a angel, I want to write Casper and Kat fanfics and am looking back at the movie for ideas
@@dbzgal04 don't go mess with the "other world" believing it's a nice old lady instead of demons who pretend to be good 😊 cuz that's how they get your trust.
Always felt so bad for Casper, man. 🥺Poor dude went through all that, and only got one short dance and a single kiss with his best friend/crush before he had to go back to ghost form... Seriously, Kat's mom, that was the best you could do?
She’s just an angle she probably had to get permission from a higher being to let that happen. Remember you shouldn’t mess with the living and the dead,people always say that
My favorite part of the movie is near the beginning when Dan Aykroyd's character from Ghostbusters randomly shows up and says "Who you gonna call? Someone else!"
Was already a grown up when I saw this movie, loved the Casper cartoons as a kid, knew what ghosts were... but it had never occured to me that Casper was a dead child. Got me. Still gets me.
At those times I wasn't thinking about it , but now I see, how pure and innocent our childhood was. Sitting in front of the TV with such happiness and expecting to watch Casper once again, even if you knew each and every line and episode .. 😊😊😊 there is nothing more beautiful than our childhood ❤
I love this film. I'm 43 and I still watch it from time to time but sometimes it makes me cry because it has a level of sadness which can touch the coldest of hearts ❤❤❤❤
He couldn't even see his dad one last time. That always broke my heart. Sure he got a message from him, but still. Imagine if Casper got to speak with his dad, so they tell each other how much they loved and missed each other, and how much his dad's heart broke knowing how lonely and abused he's been all these years, and how proud he is of his dear son.
Right , a lot of youngsters becoming movie stars in early age either get in serious trouble or even commit suicide like Jonathan Brandis who had won some fame with SEAQUEST DSV
@@rogerlynch5279 we don’t really know if Hollywood trauma had anything to do with it. In fact there are more testimonies that say it’s because role were drying up. It’s also been said that it was supposed to be a cry for help/stunt that went bad
this scene, backed by Jordan Hill's "Remember Me This Way", still hits me in the feels hard even today. I'm not afraid to admit it brings a grown man to tears.
Actually if you look at the old newspaper clippings ( when Kat and Casper are in the attic)there’s one that says “McFadden Youth Dies” and it reads “Pneumonia claims life of 11 year old boy.” Casper was 11 when he died.
Watching this now as an almost 41 year old i get such nostalgic butterflies when casper turns round and we see his human form! How many of us gasped when we first watched this?!
It comes to a question that does Casper look better in his human form or ghost form. I would like to say human form, I love this moment between Casper and Kat. 😊❤
I agree Casper does look better in Human Form and Devon Sawa was 16/17 years old when he started playing the Human Casper. and Devon is a funny name for him. because Devon is a county in South West England where i came from and Devon is famous for Cream Tea's by the way

Spielberg is awesome. And knows how to place the emotions at our hearts. I've seen three of his Universial Studios films that made me cry. The sad parts and happy ending of "We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story" (soon to be 30 years, this Thanksgiving) where we learn about Louie and Cecilia's parents and their love for each other and their parental reconciliation. And this story about Casper and Kat showing no matter how different we are we can have a lot in common and be friends to the end. And (sorry this one is not family friendly) "Schindler's List" (a true story one too), which I watched all the way through despite it being hard and shows that there's still good individuals who will do the right thing for the lives of others even when most of society won't. I love Steven Spielberg. And of course a bonus: I didn't fully see this one, but Balto (1995) is a great cartoon of a true Wolf/Dog for humintarian aid. Even though I was born at the very end of the 1990s I want to thank Mr. Spielberg for exposing me to these films and showing that there's always good that can happen for all good people no matter who it is or where ever they are.
Editor is Brad Silberling, not Steven Spielberg ))) But in any case, movie is amazing. I miss that golden age of American cinema, today's Hollywood don't release movies like this.
@@WeltSchmerz1349 Spielberg is executive producer for this. This is an Amblin movie for Universal Studios. Plus the director of "We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story was the cartoon storyboard artist for this with Casper and his uncles with the live action inputs.
@WeltSchmerz1349 90s truly was the height of cinema. Real camera reels, practical effects blemded perfectly with CGI touch ups, no streaming or same day video releases - you had to go to the cinema at midnight premieres or catch the early matinee the next day, and every scene was shot by a cinematographer, every prop bought or custom made... It was just a perfect time before GCI, digital cameras, and computers made it all feel cheap cause it was designed to be cheaper
I feel like we watched this in school but right as caspar changed our class was over so we didnt get to see that cute interaction. as an adult the line can i keep you had me awwing. soooo cute.
@@brianbanville781 She didn't do anything as she was forced to become a servant like Casper sort of is with his Uncles who did not have to make him do those things
The living kids weren't putting their coats on and getting ready to leave for bed at 10, the party was still in full swing and obviously going to continue well past 10. It was downright cruel that Casper wasn't even allowed to be a real kid until the end of the party.
What Cat's mother did is enough, there are rules even in paranormal things and only God can allow angels to perform miracles, here Kat's mother is doing this on her own although that breaks the rules since reliving is prohibited. to the dead 😷
Смотрела с детьми этот фильм раз сто. Чудесный, добрый, и не много грустный фильм. Браво актёрскому составу, а также всём кто принимал участие в создании этого шедевра. ❤❤❤❤❤❤Один из любимых фильмов.
I wish more movies could stick the landing and have an ending as heartfelt and memorable as this one. Anytime I see this on TV or online I just have to watch this ending again as the music, lighting, acting and special effects are brilliant. And that ending makes me shed a tear 😢 or too each time. Loved this film!
That scene at the end where he danced with her and kissed her was so heartrendingly sweet and touching It made me cry at how sad it was for both of them.
I remember this movie, I was teenager when we watch this in cinema and I was crying half of the movie! And I will say again, Casper should stay longer 😔
I remember this scene so vividly, even 20 years later. It was just so exciting without being corny or overly dramatic. It was just sweet and a perfectly romantic way to end the movie.
Absolutely love this movie. Great story and great actors too. It is, in my eyes as a Musician, one of the movies that the wonderful James Horner composed the music for, that is greatly underrated. Although l do say the Cinderella deal, always brings a smile.
True!...but Casper was only 12 and Kat was 15 in the story, so it would have been awkward if they were a boyfriend and girlfriend couple. At least they got the chance to kiss.
@@rickylafleur5804 she was 13 it would've been a 1 year age gap but if he remained human that would've still ment he was like decades older with having died and becoming a ghost
There is one part of the film where Casper recalls his own death in such an innocence but sad way from the view of a child which makes the scene even more dark and heartbreaking 💔 What makes it even sadder is as they die and become ghosts there humanity slowly slips away and they start to forget there previous life or who they were and even the circumstances of their own death. Chokes me up each time as it’s so sad but well acted and scripted. I really love ❤️ this film.
Reminds a bit of that Halloween series of the classic cartoon 👻🎃 where Halloween party ends with the total panic escape, and Casp meets a new girlfriend who is spookie too 👻💞👻
It’s so funny, I watched this as a child and I always had the feeling like they were like 17-18 years old and when I watch it now as an adult they look like 10 year olds 😂
Damn, that one last wish music really hits me in the feels even after nearly 30 years 😢 remember going to see this movie in Woodall Spa Kinima when i was 10 years old
I just can’t get over that “Can I keep you?” line. So good.

After turning to be human again for a short while, Casper should have been allowed to proceed to the afterlife and be reunited with his father.
Maybe, he stayed to protect the two from his crazy ghost buddies! Haha! Though, didn't the dad bond with them while he was a ghost?
His unfinished business was his friendship......
Maybe when Cat dies they'll ascend together
Or better yet, remain alive permanently

@WeltSchmerz1349 Yeah, they do. We just don't watch it.
@@WeltSchmerz1349 Spielberg is executive producer for this. This is an Amblin movie for Universal Studios. Plus the director of "We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story was the cartoon storyboard artist for this with Casper and his uncles with the live action inputs.
@WeltSchmerz1349 90s truly was the height of cinema. Real camera reels, practical effects blemded perfectly with CGI touch ups, no streaming or same day video releases - you had to go to the cinema at midnight premieres or catch the early matinee the next day, and every scene was shot by a cinematographer, every prop bought or custom made... It was just a perfect time before GCI, digital cameras, and computers made it all feel cheap cause it was designed to be cheaper
Casper's human form was my sexual awakening 😂
You posted that on here, on a page where little kids will frequent, and said "Yeah, I'm glad I wrote that."
Yeah ngl you could um maybe phrase that a little different? It's a bit weird when referencing a child actor at the time as well 😬
Casper is 12 years old. This is the minimum age of sexual consent. And the actor was 17 years old.
Well.. it is Devon Sawa after all. 😂
@@sg39ghow u are right, the actor was 17 in this! He looked way younger
0:41 it would be better, if he got to meet his dad
This scene was literally so cute! Probably my most favourite in the whole movie! ❤
I feel like we watched this in school but right as caspar changed our class was over so we didnt get to see that cute interaction. as an adult the line can i keep you had me awwing. soooo cute.
4:24 That flip jump was awesome.
“Cinderella wasn’t 12 years old” she’s 14 but she gets midnight??!!
Plus Casper gave up his one chance to be human again. What did Cinderella do?
@@brianbanville781 She didn't do anything as she was forced to become a servant like Casper sort of is with his Uncles who did not have to make him do those things
The living kids weren't putting their coats on and getting ready to leave for bed at 10, the party was still in full swing and obviously going to continue well past 10. It was downright cruel that Casper wasn't even allowed to be a real kid until the end of the party.
What Cat's mother did is enough, there are rules even in paranormal things and only God can allow angels to perform miracles, here Kat's mother is doing this on her own although that breaks the rules since reliving is prohibited. to the dead 😷
Смотрела с детьми этот фильм раз сто. Чудесный, добрый, и не много грустный фильм. Браво актёрскому составу, а также всём кто принимал участие в создании этого шедевра. ❤❤❤❤❤❤Один из любимых фильмов.
The first childhood crush we never forget
I cry at this scene every time I see it.
I think a lot of those kids knew about Casper , look at how they all stared at him as he walked towards Kat
They stared cause he was stunningly beautiful.
All the GIRLS were staring because he was very good looking as a human boy. LOL
I'm surprised not one of them notice them floating while dancing
In case you didn't notice it was specifically the girls staring at him.
My favorite supernatural 90's film of all-time. it never ceases to take me back.
Casper is a good movie. I'm in My 50's and I still love watching IT.
I wish more movies could stick the landing and have an ending as heartfelt and memorable as this one. Anytime I see this on TV or online I just have to watch this ending again as the music, lighting, acting and special effects are brilliant. And that ending makes me shed a tear 😢 or too each time. Loved this film!
Spielberg makes masterpieces
That scene at the end where he danced with her and kissed her was so heartrendingly sweet and touching It made me cry at how sad it was for both of them.
I remember crying for this scene because there was also a song playing in the background. This is one of my favorite movies.
This scene was the cuteeeeeeestttttttt🥰🤗
I remember this movie, I was teenager when we watch this in cinema and I was crying half of the movie! And I will say again, Casper should stay longer 😔
This movie is based upon the classic cartoon series, Casper the Friendly Ghost. So, he's like an old friend who I could never be afraid of.
Literally the best musical score!
4:19 (whispering) This is the part where you run away.
😂
was in 2nd grade elementary when watched this, around 94-95 time flies so fast.
I would never let kat sit there by herself
I always love to hell Caspar whispers to kat "can I keep you"
i'm a straight guy...but I cry everytime with this scene...that song melts the heart.☺
What does that have to do with being a guy or being normal/straight?
@@TedEhioghae dont be that "dude", dude...
@@katsu_papiI just want to know why a straight man can't cry at a scene or feel emotional at a song?
@@TedEhioghae yeah, right😒...you know what you just did...don't rain on other man's parade, it's not nice..
Same here
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Casper: can I keep you?
I cry every time I watch this movie. ❤😭
This film was my childhood fave
I have this on cassette. One of my favourite movies as a kid
I was a kid when this movie came out and i had the biggest crush on casper 😂
I’m 26yrs old and I’m bawling my eyes out to this scene!! They really don’t make movies like this no more!
Do you think that Casper looks cool as a human?
Yes
I remember this scene so vividly, even 20 years later. It was just so exciting without being corny or overly dramatic. It was just sweet and a perfectly romantic way to end the movie.
I always loved the soundtrack to this film
Absolutely love this movie. Great story and great actors too. It is, in my eyes as a Musician, one of the movies that the wonderful James Horner composed the music for, that is greatly underrated. Although l do say the Cinderella deal, always brings a smile.
Casper: 😅 (innocently question) ...Boo?
Party Goers: (screams in horror)
Me: 🤣😂🤣😂🤣
39 year old guy here. Not trying to be overly masculine but I’m not a crier but this is the only film that ever made me sob my heart out.
Junior Floyd from the little giants!!! Unreal! Man the 90s just dominated everything in history. The 1990s were legendary!
I love this. Keep replaying it. Beautiful.
Capser should've been able to stay human at the end of this movie (I still love it though)
True!...but Casper was only 12 and Kat was 15 in the story, so it would have been awkward if they were a boyfriend and girlfriend couple. At least they got the chance to kiss.
@@rickylafleur5804 she was 13 it would've been a 1 year age gap but if he remained human that would've still ment he was like decades older with having died and becoming a ghost
I have been seen this movie over a 100 times and I will never get enough I just love it
There is one part of the film where Casper recalls his own death in such an innocence but sad way from the view of a child which makes the scene even more dark and heartbreaking 💔
What makes it even sadder is as they die and become ghosts there humanity slowly slips away and they start to forget there previous life or who they were and even the circumstances of their own death.
Chokes me up each time as it’s so sad but well acted and scripted. I really love ❤️ this film.
THIS IS ADORABLE ❤❤❤❤
Damn, 90's Hollywood was so good back then..... 😍❤️
Gosh I Still Cant Get Over How Good This Movie Was 😭😭 This was Also my Fav scene!!!!!
Reminds a bit of that Halloween series of the classic cartoon 👻🎃 where Halloween party ends with the total panic escape, and Casp meets a new girlfriend who is spookie too 👻💞👻
This movie has everything, comedy drama even the chemistry with all the actors and actresses works
This is not a comedy film it's a family film
@ I never said this was a comedy film I said it has comedy in it as in something for everyone comedy, drama, and good chemistry
It’s so funny, I watched this as a child and I always had the feeling like they were like 17-18 years old and when I watch it now as an adult they look like 10 year olds 😂
This is definitely not funny it's a good movie and it's a sad movie
@ what are you talking about? You clearly absolutely didn’t understand my comment
This is the best of all Casper movies
Love the can i keep you line too
Damn, that one last wish music really hits me in the feels even after nearly 30 years 😢 remember going to see this movie in Woodall Spa Kinima when i was 10 years old
One of the most wholesome movies that I watched growing up.. where did the time go..
