What I love about this movie is its sense of scale. The creatures, characters, and objects are obviously very small, but the perspective and sound design make them appear to be more similar to us in terms of size.
No one is sad that (SPOILER) 8 dies... It's always like." Oh boo hoo, the kind guy dies!" or "The creepy one dies!" but you never hear, "On no the big strong guy who *AHEM* risked his life SEVERAL times to save the bunch, dies!"
In 9's defense, he had no idea that it would have taken 2's life or awaken the Fabrication Machine, and it was natural curiosity that made him do it. If all of you were in the same situation, 9 out of 10 of you would do the same thing 9 did.
Thing is, we observe the beast try to place the amulet into the device. I’m pretty sure we shouldn’t try to accomplish what a murderous robot is trying to achieve.
And to think. They had just defeated the last robot. They had just killed the remaining threat to the stitchpunks. They could've lived in peace now, 1 wouldn't be so strict or scared anymore. But 9 had to go and mess with the artifact...
I love how this stuff is framed, like how the beast looks massive when it is up against only 5, 9, and 2, but when 7 comes around, it is framed as much smaller.
@@yamantisshrimp2808 its an adult human, if you read the 9 Facebook you would see that the fabrication machine killed one of the people which explains there is a dead skeleton man in the factory
I like 9 too ^^ I dun think people are giving him enough credit really.... if it weren't for 9, rain would've never been restored, and the fabrication machine would still be in tact, and it could've awakened some other way later. Also, if 9 wouldn't have gone after 2, the cat beast woulda awakened it before 7 had the chance to chop off its head. Well, what I'm really trying to say is, 9 actually SOLVED the problem and destroyed the fabrication machine by making this mistake. So he's still a(c)
It could be their feminine side, like if that person were born female. If it were a woman's soul, there could be 8 female dolls and one male to represent the feminine/masculine sides. (That, or there could be more or less from each, depending on the person.) Not every man is totally macho and not every girl is girly. This shows sort of a balance. 7 could be the more gentle side of him. (Edit: By gentle, I mean towards friends/family, in an understanding and caring way. To that cat-monkey beast, 7 might have acted more like a protective mother bird defending a nest.)
Glitchmancer But why do none of them sound alike, or behave alike? And if each one represents a different aspect of the professor's personality/psyche, what's up with 8?
ztslovebird The voices are different for cinematic purposes and each number could be how a person acts based on which characteristic is brought out in someone. 8 is like the bully trying to fit in or maintain a social status. For example, 1 is the part of his soul that reflects based on fear, 2 is wisdom, like a grandparent, 3 and 4 are like siblings/friends, 5 not sure, 6 is like the inner part of your soul that's hard to express.(It's based on Tim Burton.) 7 is responsibility, 8 is troubled, and 9 is curiosity.
Glitchmancer Huh. That wasn't quite how I saw the breakdown. I agree with 1 being fear, but I thought 2 was innovation, 3/4 were curiosity, 5 was loyalty, 6 was obsession, 7 was courage, 8 was aggression, and 9 was hope.
ztslovebird That was just the way I saw it just thinking of it right off the bat, but yours sounds more accurate. It makes sense that 7 is courage now that I think of it, since 1 and 7 didn't seem to get along and they seemed like opposites. I was thinking about the scene where 9 placed the object into the machine and associated that with curiosity. (Curiosity killed the cat, in a way.)
Some of the others risked their lives too =o I was sad when 8 died, but not too much, as he was kinda a jerk to the others. Plus, his death was kinda fast. It wasn't drawn out too much, and the reason he died was kinda his own fault.... Not saying that 8 was an awfull character or something though, as he was very loyal to 1, and it's a good quality to be loyal etc. but I'm just giving a few reasons why someone may not be sad when 8 died.
Does anybody know what the symbols above it's red eye are? They look like alchemical symbols. Perhaps it was made through the same "dark science" as the stitch punks. Though why would anybody build a robot cat to re-activate the Brain?
The stitchpunks are the pieces of the scientists soul, and in the scientists message he literally outright says that the brain machine is a copy of his mind. So by absorbing all the stitchpunks the brain would literally become the scientist’s consciousness. He probably planned to find a way to repopulate the earth after recovering all the lost pieces of his soul. The cat beast was probably made by the brain to retrieve the soul sucking device and at least one stitchpunk since the brain needed at least one ‘soul-piece’ of at least one stitchpunk in order to be revived.
2:04 Right here is where everyone should have been alive. Despite 3 and 4 not being found. Everyone should have been okay. But at the same time it's good they restored life doing their mission all because of 9
SPOILER: i just watched the end of 9 and everyone dies apart from 3,4,7 and 9 quite sad and happy ending but i didnt see the rest of the movie END OF SPOILER
Dammit, 9! *V8-slap* what part of "Wait!" dont you get? If the evil creature that tries to kill you wants something done, do you finish the job for him after you kill it? Commen sense says: NO!!! I loves you 2... T_T
(c) good character IMO. Tis why he is my second fav character. 7 is my fav because she's awesome >3 I don't agree with the 7x9 pairing though. I hate pairings that aren't announced. Until I see an interview of Shane Acker saying they're a pairing, they aren't a pairing in my eyes |D;
i don't think you can mark this as spam. your best bet on making sure spoilers don't go around is to send messages with spoilers i guess. just delete your comment i guess.
To be fair, he had literally no idea what is was or what inserting the talisman into the slot would do, and neither did us as an audience the first time we watched the movie. And no, 9 did NOT see the Cat Beast trying to insert the talisman either, as he turned away to try to free 2 literally right before the Cat Beast pulled out the talisman. He didn't know what the talisman was or what putting it in the slot would do, and he obviously didn't see the Machine since it was concealed under debris and canvas. It's curiosity, not idiocy.
everyone dies exept for 9 7 3 and 4, they defeat the machine maker thingie with the talisman and they have the entire world to their selves basically PS i need someone to mark this comment as spam since this is a really big spoiler
true, he didnt know, but they and the cat beast are like enemies, its not like what he was trying to open up was going to be a good thing for them, right?
7: trows wire* kills cat beast* bad ending... Throws wire and missed* lands on the giant back spikes the cat beast: comes back alive and eats 7s head off*
To build other machines, specifically for war. The scientist that created the stitched doll characters was the same one who created the AI of "The Machine" but the fascist head of state took the AI sphere (basically the part containing its eye) and forced it to manufacture an army of the bipedal robots (which are shown in many scenes of the film) . At one point or another, however, it turned against humanity. Once it went rogue, someone (possibly the scientist?) shut it down so that it would no longer create any more machines. It likely created the Cat Beast right before it was turned off completely, so it could find the talisman that eventually awoke it again. The talisman was the only thing that could turn it back on because it was needed to siphon living souls as energy (at least I believe that's the reason it continued to drain their souls throughout the movie).
is it just me or does the Cat best look alot like Stallord from Twilight Princess? especially with the spikes on his back. Secondly, mabe 9 thought somthing good would come out. Nine's thoughts: Mabe he'll get a cool weapon or upgrade or mabe a cake! yeah that's it a cake we could all use a cake right now. Lets just put this in here and...... OMG i woke up Auto from Wall-e!!!
What if 9 did not put The Talisman into The Machine, then that 2, 8, 5, 6 and 1 will be alive forever if 9 did not put The Talisman into The Machine, just like The Cat Beast was going to put The Talisman into The Machine.
I Think that star wars rebels is ispired from this cartoon 9 Ezra is 9 Sabine is 7 Kanan is 1 Zeb is 8 Yoda is 2 Obi-wan is scientist Palpatine is the chancellor DARTH MAUL is the machine factory Mart Mattin is 5 Hera and Chopper are 3 and 4 Ahsoka is 6
10: 9, why did you have to put the Talisman into The Machine? 9: I wanted to! 10: *slaps 9* That isn't a good reason, 9! 7: Shut up, 9! You aren't going to win a fight against 10! 10: That's my girl! 9: She's mine! *10 punches 9* 11: 10, please don't kill 9! 10: Why? Do you love him or something, 11? 11: 0///////0 No! 10: You are obviously lying, my creation. 11: Don't call me your creation, 10! 7: I was just talking about how you caused that cat thing we fought earlier to fall into pieces with a single punch. Also, me and you? Ewwww! Please be with your actual girlfriend, 4. I love 2. 10: 2 is DEAD! 2: I ain't! 10: How!? 2: That wasn't me that died. It was actually 1, but we kinda swapped places. 6: Yeah! I saw it happen! They just swapped places!
2: 10, please, 9 didn’t mean to. And 9, somethings in this world are better left where they lie. Remember that. 5: Guys, please stop arguing! Fighting is not going to help us destroy the machine! 9: Yeah, Well look! I didn’t know! I’m Sorry! EVERYONE: …….. 9: I’m sorry. EVERYONE: 😔
