Hey everyone hope you enjoyed the reaction! See you next for a surprise movie and The Santa Clause!!

Adelie penguins (the tiny ones mumble finds after being chased by the leopard seal) are regarded as one of the most fiesty penguin species, willing to face off with much bigger animals, which explains a lot about their personalities in the movie

The scene with the orcas is pretty accurate. Orcas have been observed to 'play' with their prey by throwing them repeatedly into the air and also several together purposefully create a bow wave that overturns any floating sanctuary their prey may have found. This is also a learned behaviour and young have been seen to watch the adults to learn the techniques. Orcas also regularly Beech themselves to catch prey that becomes slow.and cumbersome as soon they get to land, ie seals and penguins.

I like how over the course of the story Mumble keeps his baby feathers which gradually start to resemble a tuxedo, adding to his tap dancer style. It's such a cute little character design idea!

This, in my opinion, is one of the most interesting jukebox musicals I've ever seen. Mostly because the singing and the songs, while not original, are a major plot point in the story. With each one representing the heart and soul of it's respective penguin. This was a favorite of mine as a kid!

Mumble: “see right there is your problem , you think you’re irresistible don’t you ?” Nick: “SHE IS, what do you mean?!” 😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️

Fun fact about penguins: Before a group of penguins will jump into the water, they'll push one of them off to see if it's safe. If the penguin comes back up, they'll follow in after it. Hence why they didn't all jump in at graduation.

I love how Robin Williams voiced more than one character. Also incase u didn't know, when Mumble was looking at the elephant seals, notice there's two on his right & one on his left. That one was voiced by Steve Irwin.

RIP Robin Williams (July 21, 1951 - August 11, 2014), aged 63 RIP Steve Irwin (February 22, 1962 - September 4, 2006), aged 44 RIP Brittany Murphy (November 10, 1977 - December 20, 2009), aged 32 You will be remembered as legends.

Can we appreciate the fact that Brittney Murphy is in this too? She was such a phenomenal actress, the cast for this movie was perfect.

It’s actually a real good way to interpret penguins cause every penguin call is unique even if we can’t really tell and that’s how parents identify their babies if they get separated

I didn’t see any people explaining it but Mumble pushed her away that time because he didn’t want her to get hurt. He wasn’t sure if he would die where he was going, and he didn’t want that fate for her too

One of the things I love about this movie is how accurate the animals behavior is. Orcas are one of the strongest predators in the ocean, however because of their small teeth they hunt in groups and have to play with their food to crush the bone, soft the meat in order to eat it. So technically those orcas were not playing

The soundtrack in this movie is still a banger no matter how old this is. The intro music brings back so many memories.

Friendly reminder that this Movie won the Best Animated Oscar for its year, beating out Cars and Monster House.

"IM GONNA BE TELLING YOUR STORY HAPPY FEET!!! LONG AFTER YOU DEAD AND GONE!!!!" always makes me shiver

You were wondering whether or not the orcas were "playing" with them, and technically the answer is yes, but that doesn't mean that they're not predators. They are just sadistic. Those orcas had every intention of eating the penguins.

Some fun facts: 1. There was a deleted scene with Steve Irwin voicing some kind of bird who talked to Mumble about a whale on his journey to find the "aliens." 2. Killer whales are known to "play with" their food before they eat it. They will often wound the animal and let youngsters take over to learn how to hunt. 3. Brittney Murphy passed away after filming this movie. 4. Yes, Robin Williams voiced multiple characters in this film. :-) I love this movie and all the music gets me hyped up.

Can we all just talk about at 33:34 , if you look in the upper left corner , above Nick’s head you can see one of the elder penguins I believe , he’s really vibing and jamming hard then he gets smacked in the head, I’ve never noticed that until now! All my years of loving this movie and being able to quote it cause that’s how much I’ve watched it , I never even seen that till now lmaooo

YESS FINALLY SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T SAY IT'S A 'horror film'🙄 This movie was my childhood, i used to watch it everyday, to the point my parents stopped me from watching it since they tired of it😆 But i'll always love it🥰❤ This movie had some form of important message to people watching it. That being different is who you are and that it's important to be yourself, even if people disapprove of it.🥰 And as a kid, i didn't realize the movie showed just how much the humans' creations affected the animal kingdom. Once watching it as a teenager i cried realizing cuz i love animals🥺💔 This movie and the second one has so many important messages❤ Love the movie i'll never get tired of it😍😍😍😍❤❤❤ And that jumpscare...always gets me🤣🤣🤣🤣 And plz watch happy feet 2🥰 It is just as great as this one❤🤗

The place this is set, actually experience what we call a "30 day night" where the sun's orbital path basically avoids it. So they have an entire month of darkness.

*penguin vomits into mouth* Nick: 😐….i forgot thats how they eat

20:03 That JUMPSCARE was the funniest part of this reaction video.

This film was made after the nature documentary March of the Penguins, which was very popular. So much of the information of the behavior and lifestyle of the empire penguins was incorporated into the plot as well as the beautiful scenery and shots of the environment they got from the footage. The animation was superb in copying these elements.

@NickFlix Here's a surprising a fact, the song that Mumble is dancing to and at the end is called I Wish by Stevie Wonder and its actually Mumble's heartsong like how all penguins have their heartsongs. Since Mumble can't sing, he just dance it out.

Also, Mumble was trying to protect Gloria, hence why he said all those things; he needed to keep her away.

I love that you reacted to this movie, it's honestly one of my favourite animated movies out there! The way Mumble is presented as being 'othered' by everyone just because he thinks and presents his feelings differently than everyone else really resonates with me due to my autism. I can't tell you how many times I've been in the same situations emotionally as him just because I process things differently, or how many times people like his mother try to express sympathy about it even though I feel fine. It's just a very brilliant movie to show those kinds of human differences in a fun and cute way!

I honestly can’t wait to see your reaction to “Happy Feet 2” especially to Eric’s opera song. I know I’ll see you in amazement at how well a kid can sing.

The scene with the Orcas is actually accurate, orcas are known to play with their prey. Sometimes they don't even eat them afterwards, they just slap them around until they're...ya know. Even the way they bobbed out of the water is accurate, they do that to see what's on the ice, it's called fly spotting.

Do NOT wait a whole year for the sequel, it's worthy.

I have watched this movie more times than I’ve probably breathed but it wasn’t until today that I realized when Gloria was singing somebody to love, mumble was trying to respond with his own “natural” song the way it happened with his parents in the beginning, but since he can’t sing and she wasn’t paying attention when he was dancing, it didn’t work out. 😭

The fact that the entire film you couldn’t tell if the humans were the good guys or the bad guys is a big message in itself ...the entirety of the movie you are skeptical on the human involvement

15 years later and the situation is no better 😔 so very sad. I love this film, I've heard it's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's always held a special place in my heart x

That moment at 51:35 - 51:44 had me in tears. It’s amazing how well the animation looks so realistic.

I was obsessed with this movie when little... I learned the lines, the songs and even the dancing/tapping...I watched this movie about 20+ times...a true masterpiece if you ask me, and the animation was also incredible

"They're just having fun with them." Yes, Orcas will indeed have fun with them until they are dead and then eat them. ^^; They're not as big gentle giant as everyone thinks. Orcas will often yeet other ocean creatures like dolphins and sharks into the air with their tails for no reason. They've also learned how to kill sharks by flipping them upside as it causes the sharks to stop breathing

Orca whales play with their food before they eat them.. its just what they do. For the Emperors, they all have one song, their "heartsong", that has a fated connection to another penguins heartsong. Mumble's dancing represents his heartsong because he can't sinf.. And his dance actually did fit Gloria's heartsong, which is why Gloria's heartsong is "Boogie Wonderland". During that dance scene, she discovered Mumble was her mate by matching her heartsong to his dancing. (Which is equivalent to finding the song match) and helped her complete her own song. He just danced instead of sang, but his song matched hers. They actually brought in actual tap dancers to perform the choreography when studying the animations for Mumbles dancing. This movie was also to raise awareness of littering and humans over fishing causing negative impacts to the penguins' environment. Also, yes, Robin Williams is both Lovelace and Ramon.

I didnt realize who the voice actors were, thats sooo cool! And all the "jump scares" are actual things penguins have to deal with. They studied up very well to bring awareness of what humans are doing to other animals, the oceans, and the planet. Its an awesome way to do this without people complaining "its just a boring documentary "

Seen this movie AT THE VERY LEAST 100 times probably more but the jump-scare gets me every time lmao don’t even trip bro ✊🏽✌🏽

This movie was so cute. I love movies about misfits, seeing as I am referred to as a “misfit” because of my autism and “boyish personality.” Also I love movies about animals.

You know what's interesting? Mumble's love interest in this is the one who named him in the first place.

To put the Killer whales into perspective, imagine a cat playing with a mouse before it kills it.

I've never seen any reactor reacting to this movie, so this is extra special to me 💕 This movie is so underrated and I love it so much, specially because of the message it has. When i was a kid i thought this was just about a cute dancing penguin 😅 Thank you so much for react to this movie. I never get tired of comment this but you're really the best and we love your videos soo much ❤️ I'll be waiting for The Santa Clause and the next surprise movie! 😁 Oh, and I hope you watch the sequel eventually

Fun fact: Originally, when Mumble jumps down the cliff to follow the humans, he was gonna lose his down feathers meaning he would have the same coloration as the adults. It would show that he had matured, but the people working on the film removed that concept. But in the novelization, it shows that he did lose his down feathers. In the end of the film, he had yellow on his chest but in the sequel, they kept his original down feathers.

At the beginning and when you see the penguins singing in groups, that's there version of the mating season, you have to find the penguin that harmonizes with you inner heart song.

Little did we know that this would be the last time we would hear Steve Irwin's voice in a movie. He voiced one of the elephant seals.

this was one of my first movies i went to see IN theaters when I was a little kid, and it holds such meaning for me. Also the whole idea of we need to save the animals was so ahead of its time i feel like. the music the animation, such a masterpiece

Would recommend checking out more of Brittney Murphy’s movies she was an incredible actress. An animated movie to check out of Robin Williams is Ferngully he plays Batty. Now the orcas weren’t bad at hunting they just like to play with their food which can lead to losing a meal. There is a deleted scene with Steve Irwin which for some stupid reason they didn’t make him a main character and they gave him a scene but DELETED it!!! Like of all the people in this film to have a deleted scene his was not one of them! He’s the one who voice should’ve been speaking about the aliens. 😮‍💨but oh well. You defiantly should check out the sequel the actress that takes over for Gloria is Pink a phenomenal badass singer who is epic!

Robin Williams plays 2 characters in this movie. Lovelace and Ramon

20:03 I've never seen you jump like that before

I always cry a little bit in the end when a man say: "I don't wanna live in a world without penguins"

Never apologize we understand. And I hope u did well on ur finals. This movie was my childhood. I’m excited to see your reaction to it.

i sympathize with you, Nick, i watched this movie when i was around 10, maybe less. the seal scene scared the living daylights out of me. lucky i watched it with my older sister.

Robin Williams voiced two characters. And the late Steve Irwin voiced a small part too.

20:04 He got so startled he went off camera! *That was hilarious!*

I think he had to turn her away because he could die, and he doesn't want that for her

I remember being particularly annoyed at when Mumble drove Gloria away 'for her own good', because it was just lazy writing. It was easier to eliminate her as a character for the following arc rather than let her stay on screen, go through the aliens arc, and develop the Mumble and Gloria romance at the same time. It just seems like so many writers would rather do build up than actual relationships. Thanks for reviewing!

this movie just brings me to tears. the amount of layers that are in this story and the way they use music throughout everything. 😭😭

Nick didn’t seem familiar with the “Don’t push me ‘cause I’m close to the edge” song, but it came out about 40 years ago so I guess it’s understandable :) That’s “The Message” by Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, which I believe was the first traditional rap song ever played on MTV (I think the first rap ever on MTV was in Blondie’s “Rapture”, but that was only part of the song so it’s not considered a rap song).

This movie was a favorite of mine as a kid, so was Surf's Up! (Ironically another penguin movie)

I didn't really know Hugh Jackman at this point when the movie was new. So looking back at it now I am like "really, that was him as Memphis?!" Mind blowing.

Fun Fact: One of the elephant seals and the seagull in the blue whale deleted scene were voiced by the late Steve Irwin (a.k.a. The Crocodile Hunter)

I heard that penguins do kinda sing to eachother when courting

loved how the movie dragged u in with cute penguin dancing then had a really good message in it in the end. overfishing is srs an so bad an its why skua and other birds, prey on animals that they normally wouldnt. Also forget how knowledge on orcas an penguins in general, isnt that common. I just watch a whole load of Attenborough doccos xD i was like ..orcas are maniacs an will play with their food without even eating it, sometimes. an dont get me started on dolphins, they're psychos. lol

You should definitely check out the behind the scenes for this movie, especially with the dancing. They got Savion Glover to dance for Mumble

Its so weird that Elijah Wood is the main character is the two best fantasy quest movies ever made. (Counting Lord of the Rings once).

Happy Feet 2 is pretty amazing too. Sadly Brittany Murphy who voiced Gloria, passed early, RIP gone to soon. Pink ended up voicing Gloria for the second movie and I think she did an amazing job voicing Gloria.

Brittany Murphy was replaced by P!nk as Gloria in the sequel The second one is my fav, I hope you react to it

Orcas actually have a habit of playing with their food before eating it, usually the food won’t survive the playtime lol

As someone who loves animal biology, can confirm Petrols are absolutely terrifying birds. They learn to eat anything they can find since they are Arctic birds where food is scarce.

I think the only effect of him being dropped was him being underdeveloped. He never lost his baby feathers on his head.

Robin Williams played TWO, (that's right TWO) different penguins in this film. And both of them are phenomenal performances.

Sea lion: *Jumps out of the water* Nick: *Disappears* Me: 😂 Relatable, though.

This movie makes me cry hard just after the humans show up, one thing this movie stands out for is it's realness, its accuracy. We take so much for ourselves on a daily basis without giving the planet or the animals a second thought. It makes me sad. Sad for the earth, and sad for humanity because we're inevitably destroying the earth and ourselves along with it.

Honestly the adélie penguins that Mumble becomes friends with are my favorites. Not only did Robin Williams voiced Lovelace, he voiced one of the adélie penguins.

I think that the message in this movie, instead of "we cause a negative impact for nature" is more of a "we can cause a good impact in nature, if we just want to."

I was obsessed with Happy Feet when it came out!! Those music numbers really had an irresistible way of making you want to dance along 🥰 There was definitely a sort of infectious joy about this one

the one thing i love most about this movie is how mumble can't sing because his heartsong is his tap-dancing and he learns that when he tap-dances to gloria's heartsong. it's such a beautiful scene that.

I just re-watch the movie on Netflix. Happy Feet holds a special place in my childhood. I enjoyed watching your reaction.

20:23 You're reaction leads me to believe you would survive longer than other characters in a horror movie.

I recommend Robots Robin Williams is hilarious in that movie

That jump scare reaction lmao

Omfg I have been WAITING for someone to watch this! I clicked so damn fast!

I always loved Happy Feet, most people say " oh it's just a silly kids movie with nonstop corny pop music " but if you look past that there some heartfelt scenes. Mumble's father hiding the fact he dropped the egg because he didn't want to be at fault for Mumble losing his singing ability. Mumble being outcasted because he has no place in the colony for not having a heartsong like everyone else. Even the harsh reality of commercial fishing ruining the chances of penguin survival and riots breaking out between people wanting to save the colony and others who just don't care because they are as that one man said " a bunch of flightless birds at the bottom of the world ".

I watched this movie every day for about five month to fall asleep. Love the music in this

20:05. I remember getting jumpscared by this scene when I first saw this in the cinema. 😆

I love happy feet and surfs up two very good penguin movies

I grew up with this movie. The voice of Mumble's father is the actor who played Wolverine in the X-Men films. He's also in The Greatest Showman!

I knew "Wolverine" but I didn't know he could sing that time. Surprising.

I think Mumble the main penguin is meant to be like a representation of autism, there's a wide spectrum of how the brain can develop in mumble's case he was 'dropped' as an egg, I'm in the autism spectrum and rewatching see a trait or two similar to him I thought it was really fun, the animation is impressive even if it doesn't try to be so realistic it's very detailed The lighting too is amazing the reflections and the way the snow and ice look is cool ^-x

Idk if he does recommendations but if he likes Happy Feet I feel like he’d love the Rio movies

Orcas are basically the wolves of the sea. Even Great White Sharks fear orcas. They even eat other whales, seals, fish, & sharks! Leopard seals and orcas are the biggest predators of penguins.

I loved this movie as a kid and watched sooo many times! But since I was young I definetly didn't get the message about pollution and over fishing xD Now I see that this movie is even better than I remember!

It’s been so long since I’ve watched this Warner Bros. film, I can’t even remember! This was the first film I experienced at a drive-in, a new and fresh experience for me. I love Happy Feet, it’s a fun, toe-tapping, musical film that I enjoy again and again (love to soundtrack btw)! So glad you’ve decided to get to react to Happy Feet, Nick and thank you!😁

As a kid the part where he danced for the little girl and the part where all the penguins were dancing for those humans. It just stuck with me, teared me up xD

42:00 this one scene alone was enough to win an Oscar

I swear this movie was made for you nick :D music, dancing, amazing views all in 1 :D

The helicopter flying over is my favourite part!

You heard and guessed right, Robin gets to play two roles in the movie. :) Also, I'm very sorry to say this, but the orca whales fully intended to chow down on all of those penguins after playing with them. I'll always love seals and whales, but this film along with Pebble and the Penguin made me respect how skilled at hunting they are.

my sister LOVED this movie. She would watch it all the time and I would watch Cars. Since they both came out in the same year, we were able to own the DVDs around the same time.
