Encanto is MORE INSANE than you THINK... 

“Tell me why every latino has an uncle named Tio” was such a stupid joke I laughed too hard over it

I like that whenever they watch a slightly cultural movie, they bring a friend from that culture so they can make edgy racist jokes

You got Dolores wrong. She repeatedly told people she can hear Bruno talking to the rats. No one listened.

One thing that always bugged me was how the movie kind of downplays how stupid and horrible everyone was towards Bruno. He literally did nothing but try to help and when he "ran away" they didn't even bother looking for him. That's far worse than anything else they did low-key 😭

Yeah, them not building Mirabel her own room in that giant-ass house always bothered me. Like, yeah, it wouldn’t be magical, but it’s better than keeping her in the baby room forever.

I always thought that one of the most fucked parts of this movie was that literally nobody could be bothered to build another room for Mirabel or give her a separate space from Antonio. Like bro come on at least get her a curtain 😢

My favourite thing about this movie that my 10-year-old brother pointed out, is that Mirabel isn't jealous of her family. You can see how proud she is of their accomplishments, albeit slightly annoyed by Isabela's "perfection". But she never gets mad at her family for having gifts and her not having them. It's more-so that she feels like she's not part of the family because of it and that she herself isn't good enough. That's so amazingly refreshing to see. It's not jealousy but a feeling of not belonging and not being good enough.

It was SO unbelievably refreshing to watch a movie where there isnt some twist villain or big bad corporation. Where it is entirely focused on the characters and the relationships between them.

Mirabel's real gift is the ability to burst into songs that bend reality itself. Isabela is the only one that notices and she hates being woken up at 6 AM and forced to dance every morning.

Mirabel has no powers. The Grandma has no powers. I don't think this is a coincidence. The house is setting Mirabel to be the The Gran's successor as the head honcho.

"Her power is therapy." My theory is Mirabelle's gift is the power to make others express their innermost emotions through song sooo...

9:40 I love how many people pick up on Dolores always knowing Bruno was there, questioning why she didn't say anything to help him and casually ignoring her next major line in the song where she mentions Bruno's prophecy that she was destined for a lonely life.

So a few fun facts: - When Mirabel is singing during the celebration of her cousins power, her voice actress was literally in labor while recording! - When everyone is singing their own verses together during We Dont Talk About Bruno, that type of harmony is called a Madrigal

one thing that always concerns me a bit is how everyone in the town will still dislike Bruno or maybe sometime after the movie the family makes a speech and just tell the town the the truth about how he really feels, it would be nice to just see the town apologize to Bruno because they sang an enitre freakin song about how much they dislike him

I felt the animation of Encanto was on a whole other level. Literally felt like there was a camera implanted in the virtual world recording the characters in real time moving, while the camera moves along with the dancing and singing. The contrast and colours in this movie also felt exceptionally popping to me.

You know, Mirabel’s problem might be very much an allegory to those who have disabilities: she’s often left out, as an embarrassment by the family, for starters

Not sure if it was intentional, but the "every Latino having an uncle named tio" bit was pretty funny.

@11:05 can confirm that ACTUALLY everyone just talks louder and louder to each other and its up to you to try and differentiate the conversations.

Its been said before but Dolores probably knows when everyone is having sex or masturbating and she knows what they think about and she lives in a huge family like that would be hell.

Hearing "why every latino got an uncle named tio" has the same energy as "I love chai tea" ngl

There is a theory that Delores relates to Bruno in that they both see their gift as a curse, so she keeps the truth to herself. When she talks about the rats in the wall, she really means Bruno. Like during her section of the song specifically, you can see Bruno sneaking around in the background. And it's the same part of the house that he enters and exits the walls from so it's more likely to be the real Bruno and not Camilo in disguise. And yes, Bruno heard them singing. The hole in the wall that he peaks through in the dining room is in the tree portrait during the final chorus.

Funny part, in WDTAB Dolores says, "its like i hear him now, I can hear him now" is a Double entendre for hearing Bruno and the guy she likes who is down the road. Also every family member makse an appearance in that song during dinner, because Bruno is behind the family tree picture. Right behind the table and the camera focuses on him first. Not to our knowledge at the time.

spilling the milk never spoils their content

10:04 "This Deserved to be Overrated" yeah that pretty much sums this movie up.

You can actually see Bruno dancing along to this song in the back when Mirabel and Dolores have their part lol

Talk about a Disney movie that quickly got a fanbase by the time it came out. Name one person that didn’t sing “We don’t talk about Bruno”.

16:13 😂😂😂😂 bro omg I’ll never hear that song the same way again!

As a Colombian i had fun watching you guys react to this lol. Also I was very pleasantly surprised with how well they did in showing Colombian culture with magical aspects. The music, family generational truma, the colors/atmosphere as a whole, etc. Still remember how home sick this film made me as i couldnt visit family for many years and the pandemic had ruined that plan family reunion. Thankfully for the first time in many years i got to finally see them this year and we bonded especially talking about how good Disney did with this film.

The characters, cultural representation, and realistic portrayal of generational trauma are all excellent. And the songs all slap, especially "Surface Pressure" and "We Don't Talk About Bruno." It will always be one of my favorites, and it's momumental praise is truly well earned.

If i saw my extended family perform an entire banger of a song about how sus I am, I would be honored, tbh.

10:54 correction: she can hear them but only he is able to UNDERSTAND them.

I don't think I realized it until I watched Mr. Enter's Soul review that unlike practically every animated movie I can think of, Encanto isn't a road trip movie! The entire movie takes place in their village and most of it is inside their house!

“Every Latino got an uncle named tio tho” I don’t think I could let out a bigger sigh

9:32 still the catchiest song in the whole movie

I'll never get over how fucked up it is how the whole family treated Bruno and when he came back HE actually apologized in his little reprise 😭 like both sides were wrong or something

Rest in peace to everyone named Bruno after this movie came out

12:47 Did not expect to see Nagito Komaeda in a STM video, but here we are.

9:48 If you look in the background, you can see bruno sneaking around

can't believe our boys got a collab with lebron.... so proud of how far they've come

14:00 kor about to get a rizztraining order 💀

8:38 “why does every Latino person have a uncle named tio?” It’s almost like tio is the Spanish word for uncle or something

For some reason it took me way too long to realize this movie is Colombian, so Disney finally gives me representation after 17 years of my life 😀

The mention of the hypothetical friend who owns 5 ferrets reminded me of how I had 5 guinea pigs as a kid and entering the room we kept them in was an olfactory flash-bang.

10:54 The moment about her "hearing the rats" is actually just another bit of foreshadowing that she can here Bruno in the walls, because dude talks to the rats

13:51 Jack's right I do have a few family and friends who are mad at me for a lot of things and they just yell at me to "apologize".

Fun fact in the we don't talk about Bruno song. You can actually see Bruno in the background dancing to his own song.

The reason Abuelo took his family (and the other villagers) out of the town was because he hoped for a better future for the children. The butterfly candle represented that hope. Abuela had her hope destroyed when she saw her husband die, and the only thing that kept her going was Abuelo's hope. But she had very little of her own, so the only thing she could do was protect the candle. She didn't cultivate the hope in her children, or in her grandchildren. Gradually, Abuelo's hope wasn't enough (depression has a tendency to win in the long run). When she had so little hope for Mirabel's gift that she forced Bruno to see the future and he didn't see something clearly and obviously good, she gave up (as the song says "your fate is sealed when the prophecy is read", and a sealed fate is the antithesis of hope). Mirabel never gave up hope. She never had a gift and so Abuela never forced her to believe the gift was the only thing of worth. Even when she decided to stop 'waiting for a miracle', she had the will (and what is will but hope manifested?) to succeed at saving her family. It wasn't until Abuela destroyed that hope as well that the final magic of the encanto was broken, and the house collapsed. But when everyone else in the family had lost their magic (the only thing of value they knew), and all their hope was gone, Mirabel still had hers. And she ignited her family's hope once again, all of them, even Abuela. And when they built the new house, all of them together, and their village as well, it was the power of Mirabel's hope that recreated the encanto of the familia Madrigal, and brought their magic back. Mirabel doesn't have a gift. She is the gift.

I honestly really love it whenever they genuinely enjoy whatever they’re watching

i genuinely like when Eden goes on his tangents

14:17 it's ironically funny because I'm watching Encanto on Disney+ while watching this reaction

I'm gonna do it. I'ma talk about Bruno.

Lin Manual Miranda cooked on this ngl

10:19 Love listening to this knowing that if you look closely at the very start of the song in the background during Dolores and Mirabel's part, you can infact see Bruno dancing to the song in the background.

1:15 a soon as mirabel said “ what do you think my gift will be?” a ad popped up on the screen saying “NOTHING”

If I was Mirabel I would have just turned evil. Which is why the Mirabel villain song on RU-vid is a favorite of mine

I can’t believe Lin-Manuel Miranda said it’s Lin-Manuel Mirandaing time and Lin-Manuel Miranda and all over the music. That’s why all the music is good or mid never in between

7:46 the fact a Hamilton clip appears lol

Now that u guys made the joke about her stopping time I can’t stop thinking about her just pulling a scooby doo and taking off a mask and it’s just DIO

I actually met the voice actor for Antonio (the kid who can speak to animals) one of the nicest kids I’ve met, great guy, really fun to be around

3:57 "Wait a second, what if she's a bastard child, is that the plot twist?" Mirabel is related to the Madrigals through her mother, not her father. She'd still be a Madrigal, even if Julietta was cheating on Agustin. 😂

Being able to talk to animals is such a fucked up gift when you think about it. Like, he can speak to farm animals too and they all have human level intelligence. So unless the who town stops eating meat, that kid can hear the voices of others who are going to die an early death.

Sometimes they’re not spilling the milk, they’re spoiling the milk

as Great as Encanto was I'd never forget how Toxic the Main Family is

Fun fact: at 7:37 the One Who says:"Luisa?" Is the same voice actress of Luz Noceda from the Owl house and it's her only line of dialogue in the movie😂

7:16 I like to imagine them Googling the ages of every character before the reaction so that they know who it's okay to make simp jokes about.

3:22 I feel like Eden says that about a lot of movies haha

honestly it was really cool that the musical numbers were so obviously non diegetic

The theory is Mirabel’s superpower is to read people’s minds and translates their thoughts and feelings into songs She’s like a Spanish Zoey Clarke

Thank god they did it🚀🚀

8:40 as someone who has a Latin family I actually facepalmed at that

Everyone else: Don’t talk about Bruno. Real intellectuals: The Pressure. Too much Pressure.

Theirs actually a theory that Delores was actually trying to get rid of the miracle because of both her’s and her moms powers

Do ratatouille😤😤

Someone already said this but I’ll say it again. The reason why Dolores doesn’t tell anyone that Bruno is in the walls is because. Well, she did. She always says he’s in the walls but no one listened to her because they were so angry at him that whenever someone mentions him they immediately shushes them. They literally sang a whole song on why they hate and never mentions him.

What's funny is Bruno is dancing on a balcony during Dolores' part of the song

7:25 That’s why the writers chose her name to be Dolores.

Fun fact: Bruno's original name was Oscar but they changed it so it can rhyme with no no no.

"Tío" means "uncle" (tía = aunt). In Spain it is used as "dude" as well (Oye, tío! = Hey, dude!)

Fun fact: the part at the end of We Don’t Talk About Bruno, where everyone sings their parts at once, is called a Madrigal.

did you boys know the voice actor for mirabel is Rosa From Brooklyn 99? i think it’s funny bc she’s a badass on the cop show and here she has no magic and no one likes her LMAO

About the big family discussions, I can testify that that happens at every single big family dinner. Last big birthday meal, there were like four separate discussions happening at the same time.

“Name one person from Colombia.” Uh…Pablo Escobar.

5:10 Well hummingbirds are more about 80 per second so Mirabel is moving at about 300x speed 🤔

I can't recall a single song that actively "left" the Encanto, except for Pressure. All the other songs directly took place in the house or around the village/landscape, just with added special effects, lots of which can be explained through their powers. It felt like an actual stage production to me at some points, especially "We Don't Talk About Bruno"

As a Colombian I can tell you the artists did care to make good research. Even the freaking arepas react realistically to being bitten. Also back then the local joke was that Bruno was a sociology student because half those mofos are hipppies who look exactly like him.

Mirabel's real gift is that she is the main character

Bruno's actually in the background of Dolores's part of we don't talk about bruno.❤❤❤

I know “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” was easily a popular song, but when it started playing on FM radio stations, I underestimated this song’s popularity. I don’t remember the last time hearing a Disney song on the radio. Has “Let it Go” from Frozen ever played on the radio….?

My name is Dio and when you said it was Dio I wasn’t looking and I spit out my water.

I get sad when Eden isn’t in the videoed I’m glad he is in this one

Abuela singing "it isn't perfect" IS her changing. She waa trying to make everything perfect before, but now she's accepting it as it is.

During Dolores' part of We dont talk about Bruno, you could ACTUALLY see him on the top floor if the background, just JAMMING to the song lmao 🤣 Maybe he was salty at some part but over all i think he'd agree its a great musical number!

As a colombian I can confirm when we are displaced by violence magic houses appear out of the blue to make mountain ranges and to give us magical powers

0:20 Jack was trying too hard to not say Pablo Escobar

Excited that Stephanie Beatriz (Mirabel’s VA) is in Hazbin Hotel. I think they said she’s Maggie.

11:38 JERMA MENTION😭😭

6:47 I can attest to this - I'm currently working on a comic where two of the characters where skirts, and I used reference photos of myself with a towel around my waist to help with getting the look right.

No Eden, no. Bruno talks *for* the rats whenever he does the soap opera nonsense, and that's what Dolores hears. It's another hint lmao.

Encanto is one of the few Disney movies where I have never wanted to listen to any of the songs a second time.

If you really want to cry, turn on the subtitles during "Dos Orugitas".
