      The western animated films need films like this one. It's silly that animation immediately makes people think "for kids". Maybe the growing Japanese anime scene will help change this slowly over time but we also need our own.

    Tim Burton didn’t direct it, but he took an active role as producer. Shane Acker was the writer and director of it (based on his original short film of the same title), but after 9 flopped he took a break from creating original projects and focused on working in the visual effects department.
    HOWEVER! Good news, he recently created a new short film called Crusoe, which even won an award in the Berlin Short Film Festival! I really hope he gets another chance in Hollywood because with creativity like this, he should be something special.
    He has his own website which features a bunch of concept art for other projects so hopefully they manage to be conceptualised because they look equally unique as 9 is.

    One’s redemption still has got to be one of my favorite redemptions in media. I know it might seem out of nowhere but I really do think that it represented his change pretty well. Plus the “sometimes one shall be sacrificed” was such a poetic way to lead up to his sacrifice

    • @williamharmon4039
      @williamharmon4039 4 месяца назад +4

      One is an interesting character because ultimately he was never malicious even when he seemed like an utter bastard.
      He was the first of them, left forsaken in a dead world filled with horrible things that wanted to hunt him and the others down and kill them and it ended up falling to him to keep them all safe. It's kind of understandable that he would take the stance of wanting to hide away and be against any risk taking or attempts to investigate things that in his mind were evil mistakes that led to all the horror they were facing and would only cause more danger.
      He's almost trying to be an overprotective and stern father to the group but messed up by trauma and paranoia of the machines that leaves him brutally cynical and hopeless.
      And for all that his saying one must be sacrificed for the many can seem like cruel excuses for saving his own skin he ends up proving that he always held himself to that standard too.

    I saw this film when it came out and found it both fascinating and disturbing in equal measure, but I love the character design of these little people so much ... I felt compelled to watch . I later found out it is based on short film of the same name (9) by Shane Acker ...Tim Burton saw this short and made the feature-length adaptation.

  • @TeeJayDesastron
    @TeeJayDesastron 2 года назад +18

    If you think about it..... the machine was also part of the scientists soul.
    He mentioned that it was born from his intellect and that it wasn't enough.
    That's probably why it tried to absorb the other dolls, because it tried to complete the soul it originated from, possibly in order to restore its' creator.
    We get to see the scientist being taken away by some people who obviously want to use the machine for war, meaning even the machine didn't necessarily start out as something evil but rather as something that had the potential for both, good and evil and was just pushed in the wrong direction.
    It's really an interesting and surprisingly deep movie.
    To think I learned about its' existence because I stumbled upon the DVD, which was ridiculoulsy cheap, and just thought the cover looked kinda erie.
    I never even heard about it being released in theaters before I looked it up after watching it.

      That is one of the major theories surrounding the film! As a fellow fan who likes to deep-dive lore, I can confirm that this theory has been tossed around quite a bit. One of my personal favorites to be honest.

    • @williamharmon4039

    THis movie gives me massive nostalgia now, but I remember not wanting to watch it more than twice when I was a kid because the soul sucking was just so damn scary for me. Both this and Coraline where two movies that I kinda can't believe my parents let 9 yo me watch,, but it really does have a fondness in my heart. I think it's very much someone's passion project and you can tell!

    Americans don't appreciate adult animation as much as they do in other countries/cultures.
    Examining the creatures as aspects of the inventor's soul can be interesting, but I wouldn't define any of them, including 1, as 'evil'.
    1 was the self-assigned authority. He organized and led the others. He's conservative in nature: conserve life, conserve resources, follow rules/commandments, don't gamble or take chances, demand to be obeyed. He's ruled by fear; his responsibility weighs on him. And he'd been successful, until 9 showed up. He wasn't 'evil' or bad, just trying to follow a heavier mandate.

    • @nickreacts6394
      @nickreacts6394  2 года назад +26

      That's interesting, I didn't realize it was a cultural thing (and I'm glad people are more open to adult animations in other parts of the world!). For Number 1, the thing that made me look at him as more than just cautious/ conservative was sending Number 2 out purposely to perish... but it made his redemption at the end more unexpected and satisfying

      @@nickreacts6394 I interpreted it more as 1 sending out 2 on a mission, not as a means to get him killed.
      2 had already lost an eye, had other patches performed; it looked like 2 was inherently the explorer, so 1's eyes on the surrounding area. You can't stifle an individual's core nature, only guide it.
      But your interpretation is just as likely.

      I too, love Elijah Wood and his voice acting of 9. Never seen the movie, but I did see the short film of 9, which is phenomenal! I even have a computer background with a 9 poster! Arguably one of my favorite short films I saw! The film came out 4 years before the feature film was released, which the short came out in 2005. Again, never saw the movie, but you can't tell me how much I love Tim Burton! Favorite director/producer! Elijah Wood also done the voice of Wirt from Over the Garden Wall. He also voice acted Mumble from the Happy Feet franchise. Which I recommend you watching.
      Oscar winner, Happy Feet, has amazing visuals, music, story, and characters. The film is directed by George Miller, the same guy who directed the Mad Max movies. We even get some popular actors, Elijah Wood, obviously, including Robin Williams, Brittany Murphy, Nicole Kidman, Hugh Jackman, Hugo Weaving, and surprisingly, Steve Irwin! Happy Feet Two, which I never saw, sadly replaced Brittany Murphy with Pink. I hope you can watch the franchise soon enough, they're really good!

    Shane Acker made this as a 10 minute animated short while still at UCLA and it was nominated for an Oscar. Since it had that kind of success, he was allowed to finish it to a full length animated film. Elijah Wood and Jennifer Connelly were perfectly cast as #9 and #7. It got its PG-13 rating because of Moderate violence and gore, plus Severe frightening and intense scenes. It is kind of eerie to watch but I love it!

    This movie actually came out the same year as Coraline and was severely overshadowed for many reasons, then got left in the dust. Coraline was a similar type of movie where it has a supposedly child-friendly adventure that actually turns out to be really scary for younger audiences, so I’m assuming the stop-motion animation is what hid this movie and brought Coraline more fame. That’s what I understood anyway

    I don't remember just how much, but Tim Burton was definitely involved in this movie, he was also a major inspiration for the character 6 (as you can tell by the stripes, hair, crazy look and his drawings)
    The movie is actually based on a short film Shane Acker made that pretty much only had 9, 5, the Cat Beast and no dialogue, it shows just how much of the creativity was already there from that start
    I love this movie a lot, it's super nostalgic to me even though I didn't watch it until years after it came out, actually met my best friend because we were both making fanart of it, there was once a time where I was SO drawn into it that I just had it run on loop all day long while drawing fanart X'D

I don't know what I was expecting but this blew me away. It has a great story and these little sack cloth guys are so relatable. I loved how dark this post-apocalyptic world was developed and animated. The world they built and the wonderful animation great to watch. This is still one of my favourite animated film. If you like Tim Burton you might like "Ed Wood". It's about the Hollywood director, Ed Wood. He directed what is still considered the "worse movie ever" called "Plan 9 From Outer Space". Burton has a unique sense of humour.

    Omg...i remember watching this when i was 10...my brother bought it on CD...I watched coraline the same age too and if you wanna compare them coraline is more creepy than scary...definitely recommend reading the book(it is written by Neil gaiman)...it is more scary than the animation...as a child when I watched coraline it realy terrified me and now as an adult I think it's more fun and intresting than scary...it has a lot of intresting details...I personally like coraline more because since I read the books and watched it thousands of times I'm realy attached to it but I totally get why some people love this animation more...it's an amazing and unique animation with the a great story(the story is definitely deeper than coraline)...anyway can't wait for the next video and this reaction was amazing as always...I realy wish you all the success in the world and I hope to see you hit millions subscribers soon...you realy deserve it...😊🤩👏🏻💐💐💐💖💖💖

      I really liked this movie and it was such a surprise since I hadn't heard of it... but I think I might like Coraline even more. The visuals in Coraline are breathtaking, and there's something so perfectly melancholy about it, I'm very intrigued by the book. And thank you for the kind words and wishes! If I ever hit a million subscribers one day... I'll remember you were one of the first people to think I could :)

    So awesome to see a reaction to this movie. It’s definitely one of a kind. As a numerology buff it’s also interesting to note which characters seem closest to their traditional symbolism - 9(humanitarian, compassion) and 1(leadership, independence). Don’t know if they’d get any views but I’d say The Secret of NIMH and MirrorMask would qualify as darker animated movies.

    9 is a masterpiece. There's nothing quite like it. It's been my favorite animated movie since I saw it in theatres back in 2009. It grossed 48.4 million USD. Tim Burton was one of the producers.

    This was actually one of my favorite movies as a kid. I just loved the whole post apocalyptic feel to the movie and how the 9 characters are fragments of a man's soul who lived a life of regret after creating this innovative machine. One of my favorite amalgamations that the robot created was the seamstress snake creature, the creativity into creating this haunting thing is amazing.
    And when I mean I watched this as a kid, I wasn't joking. I was into paranormal activity and all that jazz growing up, so this movie was my jam.

  • @chrissygonzalez333

    This movie is such an underrated film, I remember seeing the posters and trailers and being so intrigued. Wasn’t able to watch it in the theaters but I remember my family renting it On Demand and absolutely LOVING it! We watched it over and over. Always a treat when we see it randomly being shown on tv (very rarely)
    Think I’m gonna have to track down a copy on DVD or blue-ray to keep in my collection
    Thanks for reminding me of this wonderful film!

    My favourite character is 9. I just love how he is always looking out for others and inventing genius stuff, as well as his noble side and brave personality, because it is almost like a motherly role that you don't see very often in male protagonists. I just think this whole movie feels so fresh I love it ❤

  • @killinglonliness88
    @killinglonliness88 2 года назад +1

    One thing I loved about this (other than the entire movie itself) is that it was released on my birthday, which is September 9th, and it was in 2009. So, the movie 9 was released 9-9-2009 lol. I thought it was cute that they did that with the number 9 repeating, and happy it was on my birthday because I love Burton and this movie was great, even if he was only a producer on it. I don't know why anyone could think it flopped but supposedly it did.

  • @tertain4795
    @tertain4795 2 года назад +2

    Hello, Avid Animation Fan here! So, 9 is PRODUCED by Tim Burton, but there’s a funny story as to how it came to be! Shane Acker the director made a short film called 9 I believe either as a student film or as a personal film, and Tim Burton saw it and took interest! So he funded Acker, so he could make this whole movie! So I’m sure most of the designs could be from the original short film, which is pretty similar in story, look, setting, tone… kinda everything, it’s super duper similar. It’s a pretty interesting origin story for 9, and you can see why Burton took interest in it (although I personally would say that Burton’s films are way more whimsical, so it doesn’t personally give off a Burton vibe, but I was totally not surprised that he produced it.)

Thanks for your insightful thoughts on this one!

  • @maddiebromen6068
    @maddiebromen6068 8 месяцев назад

    Love that you found 1 to be your favorite on a single watch alone, because on rewatch you can notice all these little nuances about him that show that even in the beginning he's not purely coldblooded. The faces he pulls when crossing 2's number out or seeing his body or at the funerary scene, he's NOT actually all that comfortable with what he's done, but only when he sees the real consequences of his actions, otherwise he lies to himself about it being the right choice. And i think a lot of who he is stems not only from whatever traits he got from the scientist, but also the fact that he was born alone (2 canonically wasn't around until about a week later). Because what does that kind of experience do to a person, awakening all by yourself while a war is raging. It's really no wonder he's so fearful of change or losing what little control he has. He's been in survival mode since day one and it DOES make him a callous jackass with a power complex, but his final speech there really puts it into perspective. They all got dealt a shit hand. Definitely makes for the most complex character of the movie, and he's rightfully a fan favorite.

    3:39 I laughed at this moment because this is EXACTLY what my parents thought when we went to watch it when it came out in 2009 ! 😂
    But even if I was very marked by this film when I saw it as a kid (and made some nightmares at that time), I thank them because it was a real good movie and in a way it opened a new "door" in my mind in term of creativity and fictional universe. And even now that I'm a young adult, it keeps inspire me in my arts in some ways.
    So yeah, thanks mom and dad for the little trauma because it was worth it ! 😄

    new subscriber here. loving your channel so far, great taste in movies I'm so glad you watched this movie. there doesn't seem to be a lot of people (at least around me) that have even heard of this gem of a film. it's short, but the story is so well done, you don't need a longer story. such meaning in it too. looking forward to the next. quick question, maybe a suggestion...have you seen the Dark Crystal?
    also, fun fact, while not directed by Tim Burton, it was produced (shared credit really) by Tim Burton. it was nominated for a few awards, but never won anything. and, it grossed just enough to cover production cost worldwide. very underrated in all aspects of you want my opinion. again, loved it and good luck with the next.

    I think the same person that ended up making the script is also the person that made the initial animation that became this movie.
    It was of 9 having to set traps to take out the mouse skull robot from the beginning.
    Apparently it had killed everybody else but him because after he kills it he takes a talisman around its neck which is the same talisman in this movie and has a funeral which shows the ghostly forms of the other eight characters and the green colored rain.
