Since you've been on a musical binge recently, you might as well do a reaction to Hamilton! Great video as always, Umbrella! 👌
Can’t wait until you show up in those places again! 😂
Your fine. We all need breaks time to time. We will always be here waiting for your next reaction
hope you're doing a lot better now welchy!
Mental health goes first! No stress :)
her remembering the smell of peppermint actually isn’t too far fetched because smell has the strongest link to memory/triggering memories than any other sense
That's also why you should eat a mint before a test
Yeah, this is why lots of favorite smells are due to the memories linked to it
For example: one of my favorite smells is cornbread, because sometimes after school I wound open the door of my house and the warm scent of freshly-pulled-outa-the-oven cornbread would just hit me.
It was one of the few times I'd actually be able to have some nice food and peace at the time, so cornbread to me is an almost calming smell
(I'm guessing this is also why people smell their crushes/partner's clothing)
That's actually really fascinating to me. What about hearing music? Since music has such a strong effect on our brains. I might go look some stuff up now lmao
@@phoenixwing5133 I wouldn't really count on it... but then again from what I remember hearing, music can (temporarily) help alhtzheimerz patients remember some parts of their past (like what happened in Coco)
I could also be wrong, but I've heard that music, and maybe even singing, is stored in a different part of the brain than just normal speaking
Still I hope you have an easy time researching and stuff!
That’s interesting
The memory in the castle dancing with her dad is always so impressive visually and always makes me emotional.
It is!
My favorite scene 😊 I want her dress
I love that song, I HAVE IT IN SPOTIFY BECAUSE IT GIVES ME CHILLS WHEN I LISTEN TO IT
Still my favourite "disney" song
I cry every time I watch that scene. The emotions and nostalgia is just overwhelming.
I love the dialog for the reward.
"You restored her to me, you saved her life, and mine, yet you do not want your reward?"
"...not anymore."
"Why the change in mind?"
"It was more 'a change In heart.'"
"What do you want?"
"Unfortunately, nothing you can give."
dimitri is the blueprint.
He doesn't see her as an object/property, she can't be given! So cute!
The biggest difference I know of is that Anastasia was not alive the whole time. She died along with her family. But for the longest time people didn't know this, and tried to dress up women to look like her for money, like they're shown doing in here.
The main reason they believed she was alive was that when they looked over the bodies, they didn't initially find her. But they have since found her in the grave, thus exposing the scammers for what they were.
yea cause, even if this is a movie, this is one also knows as the sadded event that happens to her and her family.
She was the very last one killed, she woke up as the soldiers were carrying the bodies to a mass grave and got clubbed. You could definitely use that to create a fictional what it story of her crawling out of the grave and escaping.
Her younger brother's body was not found with the rest of the family either. They were found together elsewhere. The theory I've heard is that the bolsheviks had an attack of conscience regarding these two because they were pretty much just kids, and decided not to just dump them in with the rest.
@@kateiannacone2698 Weren't they found down a well? (Or am I misremembering..?)
@@goldensuzaku You may be thinking of the abandoned mine that the rest of the family was thrown into as a mass grave. But I also don't claim to be an expert.
the villain song had no right to go so damn hard
True
this ^
Honestly, it's one of my favorite villain songs in anything ever. (Okay, the visuals that accompanied the song were a bit odd/silly, but the actual music itself? Freaking amazing!)
“So this man just dies and came back alive?”
Rasputin in a nutshell in real life basically
Yeah, the dude was (supposedly) poisoned, shot multiple times, thrown into the river, and when his drowned body washed up on shore, they burned it, but his body allegedly sat up in the flames (likely the result of extreme heat on his ligaments, if true at all. Rasputin had a daughter who called B.S. on this account of his death).
she gets amnesia from head trauma when she fell 😭 and the smell of peppermint and being in familiar surroundings bring it back also her hair length is so inconsistent throughout this movie and i love that 🤣
Not really tbh bc when she wears the hat she has half of her hair down and most of it up on a high ponytail inside the hat and she also used her own hair to tie it :D
I always thought that when they're on the boat, her hair being longer showed time passing but idk haha
That would be one long boat ride, haha - I think her hair is supposed to be half up most of the time, though the way it’s drawn doesn’t make a lot of sense 😅
@@tkay7950 if we bring the time period into thought, boats across the Atlantic took months. hence, the hair growth lmao
Someone on TikTok showed how it was possible: and undercut. The top part is long and covers the short part when down, but when put up into a ponytail/bun it looks short
Fun fact: trauma can cause memory loss
Yes exactly what I said xD
as can falling off a train and hitting your head really hard lol
@@Welchy In this movie's case it's strongly implied to be head trauma from when she fell, when her grandmother let go of her running after the tram, and she hit her head on the ground.
+Oobi LikeStuff I was worried that Dimitri would get amnesia, too--with that big rubble smacking him on the head during that final battle!
@@trishapellis It is strongly implied to be the head trauma that caused her memory loss (at least initially), and I think the years in the orphanage reinforced it. The caretaker of the orphanage marks a derisive comment about how Anya "acted like the Queen of Sheba" when she first arrived at the orphanage (which makes sense that even though she didn't remember who she was at that point, her behaviours would have been ingrained in her from her previous upbringing). No doubt the caretaker would have severely discouraged any of Anya's behaviour that resulted from her royal upbringing, and it's likely that any time Anya would have had memories pop up over the years, the caretaker would be the type to dismiss her as being delusional (Anya makes a comment how "every little orphan girl dreams of being a lost princess," kind of implying that she has had memories pop up either in the form of literal dreams, or she confused her memories for daydreams of what she wished she had).
Welchy : just name the dog
Anastasia earlier in the movie calling out to the dog and saying pooka: 👁👄👁
You know how Anya hit Demetri on the train? I honestly would not be surprised at all if she had to break a few noses in order to keep her precious necklace while living in the orphanage. Children can be savage little buggers and the caretakers did not seem like kind people either. Though in communist Russia, I can't fault them for being cranky. This is a fantastic case of "Show don't tell." says I.
+Destiny McIntire I love this comment so much. XD Anya didn't play AROUND! She ran up on Rasputin clad in heels and a ballgown, and tackled him like a football player! I love feisty princesses. I bet Princess Fiona was inspired by her, 3 years later.
Not to make it dark, but she was also a beautiful young girl in a poor Russian orphanage, so she probably had to protect more than her necklace.
Of course you love Dimitri’s friend, he’s the same voice actor as your beloved Beak Man. 💜
Kelsey Grammar also voiced sideshow bob from the Simpsons and stinky Pete from toy story 2.
@@nathancruz9172WHAT?!
You are right, the grandmother is voiced by Angela Lansbury, thesame actress who voiced Mrs Potts in Beauty and the Beast.
Thats awesome! I never caught that before
Aw man, rest in peace to her.
No way!!! I thought it was funny that he commented on their similar voices bit I actually never knew that :0
Love how your dog was just taking it like a champ while you're tryna balance him on your head
15:40 I mean, we can joke about it, but the sense of smell is the one that's most close to memory. So yeah it makes total sense that her memory of the peppermint would be so important
You're one of the few reactors I've seen actually take the head trauma into account. I've seen too many focus just on age. "She was old enough to remember who she is, c'mon."
ever since i was a kid, i understood she had amnesia, how come people missed that part?
@@delphinebriand1554 a lot of people thought the idea was she had amnesia because she just grew up. Like Peter in Hook didn't have any kind of severe physical or mental trauma that caused him to lose his memories, he just "grew up" (even though 13 is definitely too old to just forget who you are).
@@oliviarogers2808 the difference with Hook is that Neverland is a magical place, you can't compare the two situation.
I'm sure she looked more 13-14 in the beginning. That said, a concussion could deffo knock out her memories, especially when (as far as everyone else is concerned) she is dead.
@@swymaj02 they said she was 8
20:11 Welchy the film of Anastasia is based on an urban myth about Anastasia “survived” her family massacre. The film became a financial hit for Don Bulth and Gary Goldman but while the rest of their films (excluding The Land Before Time) became one financial failure after another. About the guy known as Don Bluth used to work for Disney as a background animator and the quit on his birthday and create his own studio and being competitive towards Disney.
Dont forget it mashes together the story of Rasputin with the Story of Anastasia….Rasputin was real & had ties to Anastasia family as a “healer” her mother had to come try and treat her sick son…..Only for the rumors to start that the Tsarina was doinking Rasputin so Royal Loyalists who felt he was to close to the crown & had sway over the Tsar killed him
Land Before Time fan? If that's the case me as well, the franchise as a whole might not be the best ever... but it's the most recent one that interested me so much.
@@redmageknight3908 I learned the from Animation Lookback: Don Bluth about his career from Disney to independent work. But yes I did seen the Land Before 1 through Journey to Big Water.
Oh damn, you stop before the best Land Before Time sequel being the closest to the first movie being X, actually I made as much of Anastasia's plot to fit in Land Before Time settings into a story of mine
@@marcmcdonnell6586 Are you sure? I'm pretty sure he didn't have involvement with the sequels of the Land Before Time franchise.
The real Grigori Rasputin was a monk and healer who managed to get in good with the Romanovs after he healed their hemophilic son, Alexi. Mostly he just stopped the blood letting practice and let him get rest. Rasputin became an adviser to Nicholas and was much loved by the Empress, Grand Duchess, and the children. Ultimately his downfall came from the abuse of his power to satisfy his addictions and his manipulation of the Czar from interfering in affairs of state causing Russia to suffer. He was eventually killed by a group of nobles who tried to poison him leading to a fight with stabbing, clubbing, and shooting until he was eventually drowned in a river. The rumors of him being a sorcerer stemmed from his almost hypnotic prowess and association with the occult.
This is an old favorite of mine. My younger sister and I watched it for the first time since when I was about 9 and she was 7, she had really bad stomach pain and was in the hospital because they couldn’t figure out what was wrong and the nurse put this movie on for us and we’d just watch it over and over.
That’s sweet
LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL MANS RIGHT HERE
STOP YOU
You both should react to pocohantis
I firmly believe the vilain's sidekick thing was only added to make this more of a kids movie because it got too dark at times
A sidekick also provides someone for the villain to have dialogue with
The puppies name, Pohka, is first mentioned when Anya tries to break in to the palace.
Its Pooka xD its even said how its spelled: Poo-Ka not Poh-Ka like the music…..you can even google to check
oh my gosh thank you so much for reacting to this movie, it's one of my favorites and it came at a perfect time, I was having a horrible day, and your upload just made it sm better 😭
love your vids
Thank you Lisey ❤️❤️
The fact that Welchy got through who knows how much of the movie not realizing the dog did have a name cracks me up (It's Pooka btw)
I love this movie. Random fact that picture that Anastasia gave her grandmother in the beginning of the film is actually an actual drawing she drew for her grandmother in real life. And the people that were in that dream scene I’m pretty sure that was her little brother & sisters & dad. But when I found out that it’s based off the real story I was like “that’s so sad but the movie is really really good. Just wish that the real life story didn’t have a sad ending but wish it ended with a happy one. Also I’m pretty sure the dog represents or symbolizes (or whatever the word I’m looking for is) is the dog that used to be her sister Maria’s dog but during their quarantine/lockdown the pup became more of Anastasia pup. If I remember correctly I read that in one of the books about their family and what actually happened. Also the live action is also really really good. Definitely recommend the live action Anastasia:once upon time. (It’s not a musical but it has music in it.) Love your videos!
This movie is inspired by the rumor which started after the Russian Revolution in 1917.
The Czars of Russia, The Romanov family were massacred (in Yekaterinburg) after the Czar abdicated that year and rumors started to spread of Anastasia and her younger brother Alexei about they scaping and being alive (which later bringed a lot of girls to say they were Anastasia) then in the 90s when the bodys of the Russian family were found they discovered that it was not Anastasia but her sister Maria and Alexei's bodies that were separated from the others but everyone died in 1917 that night. It was a tragedy. (The movie is inspired by those girls who tried to make the Empress (the Czars Mother who was still alive) believe Anastasia was alive and it was them.
Rasputin actually died from drowning. He was poisoned and shot about six times but didn't die. Before he was welcomed by Queen Alexandria to help with Alexei's hemophilia (an inherited disease where your blood can't clot), and he was thought to have supernatural powers.
The musical on Broadway is a bit more realistic bc it doesn't include Rasputin and instead has post-Bolshevik revolution military officials.
'I'm so smart, why don't I just write a script?' I would absolutely love to see a film made by you! I mean... that would be just next level film making😂
This was my favorite princess movie growing up. The videotape would be in the VCR near constantly when I came home and it still works today. I'm 26 now, so that video tape is a trooper.
1. The smell of peppermint memory is alluding to the fact that smell is actually the closest sense to our memories and therefore is the easiest trigger to remember things.
2. The photo that Anastasia has where she mentions her sister saying it looked like a pig riding a donkey is not only an actual drawing the REAL Anastasia drew but that story is also true as well so when you mentioned the picture 'Is shit' I laughed so hard because I could just imagine the look on this real little girl who drew that hearing you say that to her face. XD This poor dead girl getting so much slander.
3. "That thing gets a Happy Ending?" He gets his own movie, too. XD A movie that is actually really good if you can forget that there is any connection to Anastasia.
The point of Bartok (the bat) was to sell toys and to be the comic relief.
Fox Animation Studios had great success in selling toys of Batty Koda (the bat; voiced by the late Robin Williams) from FernGully: The Last Rainforest animated film (1992) and they wanted to repeat that success with Bartok. 🦇💰🤑
Though he had no official office in the Russian Orthodox Church, nor was he tonsured as a monk, there is plenty of evidence that Rasputin was a holy man. Though unofficial, he was an ascetic and a mystic. There are even some efforts today to have him canonized as a saint, considering he was dearly loved and relied upon by the Royal Family, who are canonized saints (martyrs).
Though I still enjoy it for what it is, this movie certainly did him dirty.
"Is this going into an animated Titanic?"
Oh, dear god, you don't know, do you?
One of my favorites growing up 💜💜💜
I’d love a series about Rasputin. In real life they shot him, poisoned him, drowned him and he still didn’t die
woah, how did he survive all that? No wonder they had inspo for him not dying in this movie
Rasputin was built differently.
We Stan our man's Rasputin
In the dark of the night song is such a villainy underrated masterpiece.
I'm glad this movie has been getting more attention. It's so criminally underrated.
"He's either a gold digger or he thinks she's really pretty."
........... honestly, both 😂
Lol your face was the most red when you were talking about them loving each other, you could see it happening as you kept going. Love your personality, you aren’t crazy loud, you make silly jokes but they are great, you point out the useless characters lol great job! 👏 😊. Also, I know this vid was 3 months ago, but I hope you are having a great day today.
Aww thank you! 😊
She doesn't remember because she hit her head.
I was and still am obsessed with this movie! I would even watch the extra features on the DVD and sing the songs in other languages.
My hubby was able to take me to see the Broadway musical when they came to New Orleans a few months ago and it was such an amazing event! Obviously some things were changed in the storyline and some additional songs, but most of my favorites were still there.
Aww that was sweet of him ^^
I myself am a 28 yr old male adult, and this movie has been in my top 10 favorite animated movies since I was a kid. So, no, there is no shame in being an adult male who loves this movie lol
I always thought she lost her memory from stress and trauma, as well as the head injury. It happens sometimes
This is a movie that, as a child, gave me genuine nightmares. I was so afraid of Rasputin I couldn't watch the scene of his song without crying for years.
Thank you for making my great day a bit more terri...wait, what am i supposed to say?
😂😂
I remember seeing this film on video tape. Best childhood movie! 🤩😍 Also I’m 100% Dimitri simp
SAME IM IN LOVE W DIMITRIII
While the movie very well wouldn't be much different without Bartok the albino bat hanging around, I am, and have always been, quite fond of the thing. 😂
I agree 1000% this movie has been one of my favs for AWHILE now 😢deserves so much more credit tbh
this movie was a MASTERPIECE. im glad you watched it✨️
A film that just randomly popped into my head today which I forgot about for a while is the animated film, 'Igor' which is basically Frankenstein's assistant Igor but he gets his own story, and creates his own monster and everything. Since Halloween is coming up it might be a good one to watch and I'm sure that a lot of us remember seeing it as children, you may even have seen it already. Also, John Cusack who voices Dimitri provides the voice for the character of Igor.
This is my favourite animated film ever, glad you watched and liked it. It's so amazing because of the voice acting, music and sweet storyline
This and the prince of Egypt for me. I couldn’t choose between the two
your sister has impeccable taste
the disrespect for poor Bartok! if he annoyed Welchy in his brief appearances in this movie, wait til he finds out there's a whole direct-to-video "sequel" that stars Bartok and no on else from this movie lmao
The puppy is called Pooka! He's also the playable character in the Anastasia PC game. I still have the disc somewhere, after 20-odd years or so.
....there is a PC game!!!???
@@hazbinotakusimp2182 Yeah! _Anastasia: Adventures with Pooka and Bartok_ came out in 1997; same year as the movie, I believe
Ooooh!
16:20 This drawing in the movie is really based on an actual drawing the real-life Anastasia made. The rest of the movie isn't very accurate at all, but that drawing's real.
Also, unrelated, Josephine Baker and her pet cheetah, Chiquita, both show up together during the "Paris is the Key" song number! Josephine is even wearing her banana skirt, but it's with a sparkly unitard and therefore much more PG than her real-life outfits which didn't have much else other than the skirt and some jewels.
Just a quick question…Welchy does know that this movie is tangentially related to an actual historical event right??? Like the Romanovs were real and so was Rasputin, 🤣 I believe Rasputin was known for being a holy man and healer as well as the rumor he was doinking Anastasia‘s mother which is part of why Royal Loyalists killed him….where as the common people are who killed the Romanov Family
Bro, I love(d) this movie. Mad respect to your sister for also liking Anastasia!
Anastasia and Dmitri have better chemistry than rose and Jack in titanic
The dream scene in the musical is sooo intense and dark and creepy.
I love this movie. This was Don Bluth’s second to last theatrical animated film (the last being Titan A.E.). I definitely recommend seeing more of his films; The Secret of Nimh, An American Tail, The Land Before Time, and All Dogs Go To Heaven.
I L-O-V-E THIS MOVIE
It was this movie and quest for Camelot that got me into animated musicals
My brother in Christ, I'm 4 minutes in and already you've said 3 things that could have been answered if you'd just paid attention 😭
Aloha Welchy! I've been a fan of yours for such a long time! If you want to watch a fun spooky movie, now is a great time for the 91s Addam's family because Wednesday is coming out in November! Aloha from Hawaii!
i think you’re the first person i know who didn’t love bartock 😂😂 i love that little bat
Your ears are in fact very good, the Dowager Empress _is_ played by Angela Lansbury, who voiced Mrs. Potts in Beauty and the Beast!
Remember that she fell and hit her head after the grandmother lost her grip on Anastasia's hand
Fun fact! The little bat in this movie, Bartok, has a movie spinoff of his own, called "Bartok the Magnificent". XD
Still my favorite princess movie of all time ( beside Esmeralda and others) and I can still hear the melody to once upon a December.
This is a fun animated romantic comedy. I am so glad u reacted and enjoyed it
I love the dance scene. Ana is the only one who has a reflection, and it's a nice touch.
Just wait til he finds out Bartok got his own movie
I’m so glad you watched Anastasia!!!! It’s definitely my favorite animated movie and I was so excited for your opinion on it.
Goodness I loved this movie when I was younger. The memory-dancing scene in the old palace still gives me all the CHILLS! Truly gorgeous animation 💜✨
(Also I think I may have had a crush on Dimitri too at one point 🤣)
one of my favorite moviessss, glad you watched it! also, if you havent watched perks of being a wallflower, u better watch it! it's such a good movie
You should watch The Swan Princess next, it's an amazing animated movie and you would absolutely love it! Pleaaase watch it also I love your videos you're amazing :)
Oh yes, I love it as well! Always wanted the song 'Far longer than forever ' as my wedding dance 💕
My high school history class was studying the Russian revolution when this movie came out so my teacher took us all to see it, and then we went to Burger King afterwards and I got a Dmitri figurine that sat on top of my computer for years afterwards. Good times. (And no, my teacher didn't imply that this was at all historically accurate, but we had fun dissecting it and comparing it to what was actually known in history.)
"IN THE DARK OF THE NIIIIGHT..."
My favorite Villain song, absolutely! Jonathan Young did the best rendition of it, in my mind, but the original is still awesome.
Anastasia is unironically one of my top 4 films on letterboxd im so happy you liked it
i’m glad to inform you that one of your subscribers (me) is called Anastasia and bonus, my dad’s name is Dimitri
"I swear I'm an adult." I severely doubt that.
How??? Of course I am!
Oh I LOVE this Don Bluth movie!!!!! I grew up watching it and I memorized the songs. Two of my favorite songs are Journey To The Past and Once Upon A December.
My friend this movie is based on the mystery of Anastasia. She existed in real life same with Rasputin and the whole royal family.
Anastasia is my comfort movie ❤
And now to have the songs stuck in your head for weeks! Enjoy Paris Welchy!!🤣🤣
Also, did you know that Rasputin is voiced by Christopher Lloyd? Aka the Doctor from Back to the Future😂 I was so surprised to hear him sing
It’s actually not him singing. 😊 Kelsey Grammar is the only one of the leads to do his own singing. They did a good job getting soundalikes, though. Sometimes the singing voice vs speaking voice is so jarring.
@@RhetoricalThrill oh, whoops. My bad😅
@@lithuiwenart2955 Yeah, the singing voice of Rasputin is Jim Cummings, the voice actor most famous for being the modern Winnie the Pooh and Tigger, the original Darkwing Duck, Ray from Princess and the Frog, and the pirate Hondo in Star Wars. He’s also the secondary singer for Scar in Be Prepared after Jeremy Irons lost his voice halfway through recording the song.
@@lithuiwenart2955 that’s how good a job he did!
@@nickthedreamer4434 I have real admiration for people who are voice chameleons like that. Amazing.
This was one of my favorite movies to watch as a kid. I remember it very fondly. Different smells are actually a great way to unearth buried memories. For instance, whenever I smell a particular flower, I'm transported back to my babysitter's house from when I was 2ish years old and my favorite little red mailbox toy with a plastic letter. A deep sense of calm falls over me. A similar thing happens whenever I start to smell the dead leaves scent when Fall is approaching. My memory is garbage otherwise.
"this movie kinda dark" did you miss the MASS MURDER of her family in the first minutes of the movie 😭
I liked this movie so much as a kid, but couldn't see it again, because I was so creeped out by the villain.
"This is more like it: No beating around the bush - DEATH!" XD
Yes, that’s Angela Lansbury, she’s actually in another Disney movie called Bedknobs and Broomsticks which is one of my personal favourites. Also, the dog’s name is Pooka and he’s a boy. Whenever I see this movie, I automatically hear At the Beginning by Donna Lewis and Richard Marx because it used to play before the movie started on my VHS tape. 😂 It’s still banging. I used to belt out the lyrics when I was alone as a kid.
"She wouldn't jump out of a train for her granddaughter she's not going to jump out of a car." The way I HOLLARED!
omg I needed this my youtube is flooded with the ned fulmer drama lmaooo
Your insight on the pedophiles liking more milk in their tea seems to track at least in another movie. In "The little girl who lives down the lane" featuring Jodie foster when she's 13 yrs old, Martin sheen plays a man who has an affinity for underage girls and the final scene of the movie shows Jodies character serving them tea and she apparently puts more milk in her tea than his and he says he wants her cuppa because he prefers more milk in his tea.
Very long winded thought - but this just reminded me of thus film tidbit lol
*this
I've been waiting for this!!!
Lol Bartok (the bat) was a fan favorite and even got his own spin off movie which I remember enjoying as a kid lol no idea if it still holds up, I doubt it
If you like the movie you should check out the broadway musical. It harness the genius of this movie and makes it more historically accurate.
Fun fact: this movie was set in 1917 during the Russian Revolution and the villain was Gregory Rasputin (a so-called holy man who could apparently heal others with magical powers). However he went mad with power and he began influencing the Russian royal family so he got assassinated by a bunch of army officers
Love Welchy so much
Literally one of my favorite movies
Ahh Anastasia. I loved this movie as a child, and watched it so many times on my VHS. And at a time I had memorized the entire lyrics to Once Upon a Dream.
Great reaction though. Commentary wise and you singing with the a few of the songs 😆
And aww your dog is cute.
6:54 The "depths of hell" you're referring to is actually purgatory, or limbo. Basically it's a type of place where souls go in some religions in order to finish some business before moving on, whether to Heaven or Hell. I remember learning in Sunday school that sometimes churches would ask for a donation, usually money, in order to get someone who has died out of purgatory and into Heaven. Unfortunately this was common for a long time in the Catholic Church, my religion.
