How did I not catch on to that?😅

Reconocimiento facial no está muerto, tampoco el teleferico ni los micrófonos, tampoco las pantallas y cámaras de televisión

​@@alfredobarraza5500 correcto, pero también es una "representación" Los monitores siguen existiendo, pero ya no tan voluminosos como lo eran hace 15 años. El teleférico aunque siguen habiendo lugares que los usan, se han vuelto "arcaicos". Las cabinas telefónicas ya casi no se ven. Simplemente es una referencia a todas esas tecnologías ya en desuso.

​@@alfredobarraza5500it could be that specific piece of technology is dead.

That’s a running themes with most forms of afterlife’s in fiction, that everything in it is meant to be technology that is no longer used in the living realm, as you so brilliantly put it, dead technology.

Up for me wasn't even sad.

@@azulablue6988 same, it was the music that made me emotional but the story not so much.

What reactor. i must know.

When I first watched this I actually only cried during the flashback, nothing hurts more than seeing a father having a good relationship with his daughter

To the comments, what would make you cry?

This movie hits harder for me since I lost my best friend. Fuck you Pixar! I love you!

Right there with you, Kalli. It was more than a month before, but I lost my dad that same year too, and this movie DESTROYED me

@@kateiannacone2698 *hugs*

Remember me always makes me cry every time I think of my mom, I missed her all the time

Definitely

It’s cuz western ideology advocates for individualism, which would be the “follow your dreams”. But the culture associated with PoC, like Asia, Africa, and Mexico/South America, tend to be more collectivism and family based. Hence, when movies like these come out, they tend to subscribe to the mentality of family and identity within your culture and family and family friends. Most stories about western culture is about breaking tradition, going off on your own, and making your own family, whereas there’s more focus on appreciating/coming together/sticking with family (and family friend groups).

@@BelBelle468 Exactly, it's the only reason why China was willing to air Coco, they normally are very heavy on censorship with anything skull related but the message of the move just weighed in hard that is similar to traditional Asian values.

@@BelBelle468 I actually think it's more interesting that while the story is definitely under the ideology of family and it's importance, it also makes a point to say that it's not fair to completely do the opposite by not allowing your own happiness for the sake of your family. It's good to understand the balance between the two. His family was wrong to hurt him like that and drove him away, while the other characters were wrong to betray their family for their own gain. You can try your best for your family without making yourself miserable and that family goes both ways, both sides have to put effort into compromise and understanding each other.

@@BelBelle468 I mean, yeah, family is great, unless your family hurts you and crushes your individuality to force you into the mold they made for you. This movie is very much about finding a balance and healing your family and yourself. But, if your family can't be healed without you destroying yourself, is no bueno. Luckily, his family was able to find balance as well.

​@@JorgensZeldayeah, I think some people who are biased against the individuality structure miss this in favor of highlighting how the movie approves of what they think is right. the movie isn't just about sacrificing your own dreams or aspirations, it's about finding a balance between having a healthy relationship with your family and also having your own aspirations. the movies message is valuable but we need to remember that not everyone is lucky enough to have a family that eventually comes to their senses like miguel's. both him and his family have to undergo a change in mindset, you cannot have this outcome if your family is unwilling to meet you in the middle like his does. collective mentality and individual mentality are both harmful when used alone or at their extremes. one suppresses self expression, making decisions for yourself, and ultimately leading a life you're satisfied with. the other can rob you of important bonds, inspire selfishness and do more harm to everyone involved than you may realize. neither of these mentalities should be used by themselves, we have many real world examples of just how dangerous or toxic things get when a society heavily leans towards only one of these modalities.

One of them clearly has watched it before. Till grandfather was fine but no way they could have guessed that he was poisoned by de la Cruz.

Yeah. I was thinking the same thing

@@prasoonjha2238 I mean I had similar thoughts when I watched it. Once you decide on Héctor being the actual grandfather, the idea that Cruz somehow had his guitar, the famous guitar without the mention of it belonging to a friend or anything, it's not that far of a leap to make. Especially since there wasn't really a "bad guy" yet in the movie and he seemed like a self-absorbed showboat that diffidently had the hubris for such a move.

He "guessed" (KNEW) he died from poisoning 😂 and how he immediately knew Hector was his grandfather after his first appearance, and how surely and certain he was when he kept saying it lol He clearly watched this movie before 😂

​@@chucktaylor824I've seen a lot of their videos, they probably haven't seen it. Most of the time they just say as many as the most out there sounding plot guesses and sometimes they end up right lol But also it's a Disney movie and if you have seen a lot of Disney or just movies in general, it's pretty reasonable to guess that Hector was the actual granddad And hector supposedly dies from "food" poisoning... They clearly had a big falling out. It's really not hard to guess all the twists. Don't get me wrong, this became my favourite Disney movie when I saw it, I don't think being able to predict some of this is bad, it means that the plot threads make sense.

Oh wow. I never noticed. I had forgotten he was carrying it. That’s so sad. Im sure they could go back and get it, I guess that’s my personal HC now lol

I’ve never thought of that :(

I've always thought the same! RIP Chicharrón's guitar!

Was the only thing from him to remember Chicharron but even that was forgotten at the end, was his fate.

I never thought of that. What I always think is: How come Ernesto thought he needed saving... they're all dead (as far as he knows at the time).

And even though is a movie set I'm Mexico I feel like it hits differently in the whole of Latin America it really got representation done right and not just that is a gut punch that no matters how many times you watch it or even see Reactors see it you still cry at the end

And his clothes are ragged when you see him at first, but now they're new and clean.

That and he probably knew better than to approach on instinct. That woman is deadly with a shoe. He would have heard her coming and immediately done a Houdini before what she said even registered.

Thats a good point, and not just that but they brought up the fact the other dead relatives seems younger where as coco at the end was older. I think they are forgetting that the life expectancy of people around the time hector and Imelda would of been alive wasn't nearly as long as it is today.

@@emboss2397 Yeah, between healthcare and better access to adequate food/clean water... People are definitely living longer and healthier lives. Imelda might have lived to sixty or so, still youngish and relatively spry. Mama Coco is easily in her eighties, if not pushing 90 or even 100. And they didn't say what the relatives died of, at what age. Could have died relatively young of stroke, cancer, heart attack, disease...Tetanus from a rusty boot nail?

@@emboss2397​​⁠​⁠actually, most of them came to the family after Hector’s departure/death (which happened when Coco was really young). Julio was Coco’s husband; Rosita was Julio’s sister; and Victoria was Coco’s daughter (Elena’s sister). The only ones who could have recognized him were Oscar and Felipe (who were Imelda’s brothers), but then again they never get so close that they would be able to see Hector

I was kind of mad lol 💀

@@DemonBunnyQueenMe too lol, I wanted them to be mind blew 😂

@@hectortrujillo4311OMG This was already 6 months ago?! Crazy lol

That last bit is not factually true. Casting in México and U.S. for this movie is different.

No. He did try to talk to her. She even said “how many times must I turn you away?!”

Don't feel dumb. This is our job. Most of these movies are mostly formulaic with different settings. You just start picking up the vibe after a while.

True

And Disney never give her any credit to her story

@@Fickflowy that’s cuz Disney never based the movie on anyone or anything

I have a Mamá Coco. And a greataunt Coco. I still don't get why it was popular to call your kid "Virgin Mary of OH DEAR GOD PLEASE HELP ME" in her time, but it's a thing 😂

Mamá Imelda did not die young. Her picture is her young, while she in the land of the dead shows signs of older age, like the gray in the hair and the posture. Also, ladies like her tend to age rather gracefully, to the point where you could believe they are several years younger.

@@GabrielArchon That’s fair.

My paternal grandmother had alzheimer but she never manged to recognize us. When she died, she was already a vegetable.

@@a.g.demada5263 I'm sorry to hear that. It was, nearly the same for my friend's Mother. She was so unresponsive that she developed sepsis poisoning.

@@samuelvincent557 I was 12 when I broke down during our visit in the nursing home, and asked if I could come back in the car. That was the last time I saw her.

Pixar is owned by Disney. Anything they do is a Disney movie.

@BoomSentai I'm not gonna give credit to Disney when they act as two separate identities tho.

@@Hickory958 I'll let you fight the good fight. I'm going to just enjoy the movie.

@BoomSentai I'm not fighting anybody, i just had an opinion. I didn't say you couldn't enjoy the movie. I just mean that the studios have two different styles. Like "It's a pixar movie. Did you think it wouldn't make you cry?"

Grandma had dementia, I understand your pain.

No, it's the age they died at. Imelda was much older than her picture portrayed her. There were hardly any young people in the movie.
