"poor Edward" indeed, such a beautiful sad tragic story. The pastel 50s contrasted with the gothic castle is so stunning

This movie really helped me cope emotionally as a child with my own scissorhands. It really made me feel like I'm not alone.

Danny Elfmans score is nothing short of amazing in this movie

The movie that made me fall in love with Johnny Depp.

It reminds me of how people treat people with mental health issues today, when they’re nice people are happy but if they start showing their mental health conditions that make them do not very kind things people immediately judge them and start a witch hunt instead of trying to understand that their mental health isn’t always perfect and try to understand and work with them. People don’t commit to understanding each other, the easy thing to do is judge others when they aren’t perfect.

Top 3 moments in the movie that always make me, a grown man, teary-eyed every time I watch this movie: 1. Mother: "I can see I've disturbed you. How stupid of me. I'll just be going." Edward: "don't...go..." 2. Kim: "Hold me." Edward [tries to]: "...I can't." 3. Edward: "Good-bye" Kim [kisses him, whispers]: "I love you" [runs]

This is a nice surprise, rip Vincent Price

34:05, this part made me cry the most. Danny Elfman wrote an amazing score that's not bombastic like Batman, but rather gentle and soft.

We can see this universal message in many of Tim Burton's movies: Once again... society manipulated and almost killed a unique creature... just because once again for the human's greed and the desire for conformity. What a twisted story with such a simple message. Finally, most of the simple people of the village became the true monsters and the seemingly monster was the true human all the time. As I said, you can find this message in many Tim Burton films: Edward Scissorhands, the Batman movie with the Penguin and Catwoman, or to take a newer one: Dumbo.

The movie wears it's heart on it's sleeve. This is Tim Burton's masterpiece, with an absolutely unforgettable soundtrack by Danny Elfman. For anyone who ever felt strange or out of place.

This movie has so many freaking majestically beautiful and creepy shots. Glad to see you watching it brother!

Edward looks like Burton! And Ed was drunk. That’s why he passed out!

"Edward's got that heartwarming stuff to say" He has a heart that's made out of a cookie, what'd you expect? (3

14:55- Brandon does the Carlton!!!!! Noice.

This movie can really make you feel a lot of things because Edward himself sees a monster and he already gets scared of hurting people, he can barely stand to look at himself and only the people that know him truly know he would never hurt anybody intentionally unless somebody was trying to hurt the people he loves. It's sad seeing Edward and his self-esteem suffer. Truly a great movie

Holy moly. That's Vincent Price. I've never seen this, and didn't realize he was in it. Must have been one of his last roles.

"Living on the Autism Spectrum: The Movie" I identified with this movie more than a decade before I was diagnosed, and the more I discovered about my condition the more this movie came sharply into focus. It remains my 4th favorite movie of all time. I call this film, Batman Returns, and Nightmare Before Christmas (which he did not direct but is still very much his baby) Tim Burton's "Christmas Trilogy", and what I consider the absolute best works of both Tim's and Danny Elfman's careers.

"Idk man I'd do anything for cookies, well depends on what kind of cookie"

This movie was a huge part of my life growing up, and will always have a special place.

Johnny Depp was perfect for this role.

Man. You have to watch "Death Becomes Her", directed by Robert Zemeckis, With Meryl Streep and Bruce Willis! I know you'll love it!

It's the classic Frankenstein story. Such a bittersweet masterpiece. Bittersweet is what Burton has always been, but it would not be the same without the legendary Danny Elfman making the magical scores.

Omg this movie practically raised me

Watched it every year since it came out - 30 year tradition now - and I still cry every time, and then cry even just seeing clips during a reaction. I hope someday I stop crying without enjoying it any less.

one of the best final lines of any movie ever. still makes me cry all these years later.

For some reason , I still have a soft spot for his “Mars Attacks!”

"Big Fish" is, in my opinion, Tim Burton's masterpiece. You have to watch that one.

I loved the beginning when they were nice to Edward. Then I was so mad when the neighbor tried to frame him when he rejected her. He was hunted by the angry folks. I love Edward.

After this, please watch Sweeney Todd (the Tim Burton version) 2007. Thank you xxx

This is such a good movie, Brendan! It's a fairy tale taking place in suburbia. It's become a cult classic. It has impressive makeup effects by the late Stan Winston. This was also actor Vincent Price's last film until his death in 1993 at the age of 82.

14:48---He passed out because he got drunk super-fast

"Edward needs to give Jim a little snip here and there" *Foreshadowing* XD

Ooooo nice excellent choice this is Tim Burton's Masterpiece Imo such a beautiful film and fun fact tim burton actually based Edward scissorhands on himself as a kid feeling very different and like a social outcast from other people around him

I still say this is tim burtons masterpiece a modern day gothic fairytale

No way! I JUST watched this for the first time yesterday. And I loved it...didn't love being in a puddle of tears but otherwise...

7:38, he's infatuated with her. In fact, Johnny Depp and Winona Ryder actually dated in real life after the movie was released.

It's neat seeing Anthony Michael Hall as a jock in this after his slew of roles as "the geek".

“Ay yo, yo beat sucks, girl” lmaooooo

I like that you went from not being sure you'd like it because of Edward's appearance being off-putting, to genuinely enjoying the movie and liking his character. I think that change of heart is a microcosm for the film's theme/message.

His Batman films are a must! Especially the second one is 100% Burton!

Brandon, you should pop this movie in every once in a while. The more you watch it, the more devastating it is.

So I went to Calarts, where Tim Burton went to school, and there was a lot of talk about him and the influence of the school on this movie. The school is on a hill in the middle of Valencia CA, which is just north of LA. The school is SURROUNDED by cookie cutter suburbs and some of the people there do not like the college. It really does feel like it's own little art fortress up above the drones. It was a lot of talk and I'm not sure how much of it is true. But I knew as a student there that we were kids from "that weird school". Danny Elfman apparently attended classes but was never an official student around the same time as Burton, so it's not surprising that they work together so well.

Omg this is my favourite movie, I nearly screamed when I saw this reaction in my recommended 😎👍🏻🎉

Love the quirky fairy tale qualities of this movie! One of Depp's most charming performances too, Edward truly is an innocent

This movie just feels so homey and nostalgic. Such great performances

Speaking of Alan Arkin, Little Miss Sunshine is highly recommended.

I always found the inventor to be just as tragic as Edward. They implied he was all alone in that mansion making amazing inventions that no one would ever even know about. He finally made himself a child to keep him company but croaked before he could finish.

"Big Fish" is one of Burton's best films in my opinion. I hope you'll react to it someday.

Everyone always forgets the movie that got him started: Peewee's Big Adventure. A fun time.

"I don't know what genre this is"...it's Tim Burton. enough said.

The look of death on Vincent Price’s face when he dies of a heart attack or something is just so haunting. It’s a moment of gothic patriarchal beauty.

The Nightmare Before Christmas is my second favourite movie - can't wait to see your reaction!

That religious lady always reminded me of Carrie White's mom from the original 1970s movie adaptation of Stephen King's Carrie

14:52, Man, I think it's the first time I see Brandon move that much and with such energy! 😂 Love your reactions, keep it up!!! ❤

Man, I remember feeling so EDGY watching this in my youth.....get it?

30 years ago. Depp & Burton's first-ever collaboration. Saw this with my mother. It proved that someone's weirdness can be considered normal. RIP to Stan Winston (Edward' Scissorhands' make up & costume designer). Also RIP to Conchata Ferrell (Helen) better known as Berta from Two & A Half Men.

You have to do his Batman films! Danny DeVito, Michael Keaton, Christopher Walken, Jack Nicholson, Michelle Pfeiffer and of course OST by Elfman!

this guy makes the most honest movie reactions on youtube. Many others just fake their reactions trying to be funny, and they ended up mising a lot of details, but not this guy. You're the Bob Ross of movie reaction, in youtube and I like that.

they dont make films like this no more man the 90s was peak for unique art this was poetic/tragic/beautiful

A beautiful movie, you really are doing yourself a great service going back to watch some of these greats.

You have to watch “Who’s Eating Gilbert Grape”!! Another great movie with Johnny Depp

The actor portraying Edward's creator is the late great Vincent Price.

This movie has been with me since childhood and its meaning just got deeper. It's so beautiful. I think the casting was amazing because it's all in the eyes. He has such kind eyes you just see the innocence and love even when all goes wrong, even when he's an unknown stranger, frustrated or scared. He doesn't say much but his eyes say a lot. Side-note: when I was a kid we were on vacation and there was a sort of impromptu halloween party at a restaurant, all the staff got dressed up. It got a bit out of control with the scares and this mummy person was dead set in scaring us kids. It's funny now but at the time, me being the youngest, I started balling. My mom, quick on her feet saw Freddy Krueger, pretended it was Edward, and took me to him to calm me down. I got the creepy Krueger wave and was delighted! I remember that to this day because it warmed my heart! I was immediately at ease because "even if they looked scary, they were good guys", but also, I had never seen Edward being that playful, and wearing a sweater, mind you (even though it was summer). His skin scare had not improved I must say. It took me years to figure that one out lol

I think this movie is what showed the world just what Johnny Depp was capable of as an actor.

Been a Burton fan since Peewee and never looked back. This is in my top three of many. The movie was very personal to him and it shows. It just works so well on many levels. There aren't too many directors who can get away with presenting a modern day fairytale. Best. Leo.

What’s crazy is that the jerk boyfriend was played by Anthony Michael Hall, who played the nerdy kid in so many John Hughes movies just a few years before! (Sixteen Candles, Breakfast Club, Weird Science) puberty really hit him!

"Tim Burton definitely has a trope of putting giant, looming houses on hills". That made me laugh way too much, lol.

Danny Elfmans score for this movie is still one of my favourites. Especially ‘The Finale’ (I thinks it’s the music that she dances in the snow to) just love it! 😁

This is such a beautiful movie. It's like a celebration and contemplation of what it is to be different and "weird". And amazing acting and soundtrack as well.

Basically a modern retelling of Frankenstein.

In many ways this really is Tim Burton’s best movie. It features every element Burton loves to play with and it all works so beautifully. All of the humor, heart, darkness and sadness quite flawlessly blend together to make for such a uniquely delightful fantasy that always makes me cry. Especially when that incredible Danny Elfman score fully engulfs you by the end. If you are looking for other great Burton movies I would highly recommend Pee-wee’s Big Adventure, Sleepy Hollow, Mars Attacks! and Sweeney Todd to name a few. Pretty much everything in his filmography up until 2010 haha. Sadly Burton seems to have become a sad shadow of the filmmaker he once was but his past work is still as fantastic as ever.

Yes for the Nightmare Before Christmas as you mentioned. Also Corpse Bride that features the voices of Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter to be followed by Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. Sweeney Todd has an incredible cast and it will be interesting to see how many you recognize.

Big Fish. Burton's storytelling shines. Great reaction, love this movie!

It's been a while since I've seen Edward Scissorhands I can't remember how old I was the last time I seen this movie maybe 8 or 10 or something but I remember I really enjoyed it such a good movie !

This movie is Burton's version of Frankenstein story. I absolutely adore it. It's shows his style at it's best :)

Yess one of my fav colab between Tim Burton and Johnny Depp. You should check out Sweeney Todd too. If you haven't

Great movie. I might have missed it but you didn't seem to recognize Vincent Price. He wasn't well and it was one of his last film roles. Another great man lost. The soundtrack is amazing.

"Well, guess I hate that guy now" Yes. Yes we do.

Early 1920s German expressionist film and early American horror is the visual inspiration for all of Burton's work. Edward is very similar in look to the somnambulist character in The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari a 1920 German expressionist film. The set design for that film definitely inspired Burton's Beetlejuice. If you want to go really old school definitely check out some silent films from that era, they are very impressive.

The kid at the end was'nt the elderly woman's (Kim) daughter. It was her grand-daughter. If I recall,before Edward's inventor tried to give him hands,he homeschooled him. That's why everything is new to Edward. A lot of people thought that Edward killed his inventor by accident,throughout the flashback,because Edward's scissor hands were close to him. However,thank you for pointing out that the inventor actually had a heart attack. Many people back then would'nt catch on that. Now the reason why Jim framed Edward to begin with,was because he got jealous of Edward being with Kim. The whole idea of this movie,was to show people about isolation,and how it affects them,and being unable to communicate to others around. The character of Edward Scissorhands came to be from a drawing that Tim Burton made. Tim said that he was often alone and had trouble retaining friendships. Basically,the work of this movie helped him out. It was basically his cry for help,there pretty much. Tim Burton wanted it to be a musical originally,but dropped that idea. This was filmed in Florida. To create Edward's Scissorhands,Tim Burton employed Stan Winston to design the Penguin's prosthetic makeup,and it took 1 hour and 45 minutes to apply,including the makeup on Johnny Depp's face. The giant topiaries that Edward makes in the movie were done using wrapping metal skeletons in chicken wire,then weaving in thousands of small plastic plant sprigs. By the way,Edward only spoke about 169 throughout the entire movie. A single bell chimes six times when Jim falls to his death after being stabbed by Edward. The whole kid's bedroom decor at the beginning foreshadowed the plot twist at the end,if you payed attention closely enough. About the heart attack,poor Edward just could'nt understand what happened,which make it even sadder,especially when he said "he did'nt wake up". Peg mistakenly blamed herself for Edward's "attempted burglary",because when the bank turned him down for a loan to buy the salon,she had assured him that they would find another way to pay for it. Earlier than that,when Jim was a guest at dinner,she had cheerfully remarked "it must be nice to be so rich" as he talked about what his parents had recently purchased,as she tells Edward "You saw how I envied Jim's parents their money". Thus,shevassumed Edward was going to see the stolen goods to pay for the salon.

I remember watching part of this when I was 6 and not understanding exactly what I was watching but I knew it made me sad lol and I loved it!

The music at the end never fails to give me chills!!

“Poor Edward, he was just ready to peace-out right there” killed me 😂

MARS ATTACK, SWEENY TODD, MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN, ALICE IN WONDERLAND, PLANET OF THE APES, ED WOOD .... just to name a few amazing ones !!! .... Soooooo many others. Tim is an incredible director and writer !!

All I have to say, is that this movie is just so amazing and beautiful. I think the love story and gothic or old type movies that Tim burton seems to make really get me. I would say I’m a sucker and truly am in love with these type of movies like the corpse bride and this movie 🤍

Hey Brandon, just want to take a second to congratulate you for such an awesome channel. I noticed yesterday that your channel is growing so quickly, and it’s all well deserved. Well wishes, and keep doing what you’re doing :)

26:26 "Ey yo, your beat sucks girl! And so do your opinions about Edward..." I love this fuckin guy right here lmao

a great movie especially for Christmas but it just makes it 100 times better after Brandon has reacted to it just makes life better for me

No one has mentioned Vincent Price. BRANDON, do you know WHO he is??!!!!

I feel like everyone fell in love with Johnny in this movie. I think he is a genius because of how he was able to say so many things and say everything he had to say just with his eyes. He was and still is the most beautiful person on earth, not only outside but also inside. I hope he gets justice

A bit of trivia: Vincent Price's daughter is in this movie. She plays the reporter (blonde curly hair). I think this was his last feature film appearance, and her only film appearance. He was a really unique actor/personality. With a voice that is among the most recognizable in the history of film.

When I was 10 or 11 and saw the scene with Edward and the gal in the back room of the hair salon for the first time, it made me feel all kinds of ways.

Brandon: The reason I haven't watched this film, is the character looks off-putting. Edward: Don't judge a man by his scissors.

Brandon's chair dancing freaked me out but suprisingly made me felt in the mood

I especially like the conceit of replacing the stereotypical torch and pitchfork-carrying angry villagers with pastel-colored polyester-clad suburbanites. The only thing missing was Conrad Veidt screaming, "Kill the monster!" Best. Leo.

Can’t wait till this man gets 100k subscribers. It’ll be well deserved.

You should watch Benny and Joon. Depp plays a character with a similar personality. Like a cross between Edward and Buster Keeton.

This movie makes me think of bubble boy lmao. I loved that movie as a kid

Tim Burton, Danny Elfman and Johnny Depp the holy trinity of cinema! Loved your reaction and comments, Brandon! What a modern classic! The Nightmare Before Christmas please! It was not direct by Tim Burton himself but it came from his incredible imagination!

#JusticeForJohnny We all know Amber Heard was the real abuser here. Other than that,this movie is so beautiful. Everyone involved did a magnificent job. I just want to give Edward a hug 😣😥
