Things Only Adults Notice In Soul 

What did you think about Soul?

Y'all forgot to mention the obvious trauma that dude from the barbershop will likely suffer from after having his soul ripped outta him by Terry in the alleyway 😭

"you can't crush soul here,that is what earth for" this line caught me off guard💀

I think another key point of the movie is that the universe seemed to restrict mentorship to people had lived extraordinary lives (Mother Theresa, Muhammed Ali, Martin Luther King etc). However it was only when a ‘normal’ person such as Joe flukes his way into being a mentor that a previously unreachable new soul (22) finds its confidence & purpose. This clearly pronounces that everybody is extraordinary no-matter the tag that may be placed upon them. Beautiful film.

This movie was so deep. The older you get you realize it's the most simple things in life that mean the most. Like going for a walk in a sunny day with your loved ones with a beautiful scenery. When you begin to lose your health you realized you had everything all along. Life is so beautiful.

At the beginning of the movie says “I would die to play with Dorthrea Williams” . Ironically he does die after the audition.

Best joke was Marie Antoinette was only a floating head and 22 was offering her a slice of cake sarcastically...

WHO WAS LISA AND WHYYYYYY DIDN’T HE CALL HER???

With all her mentors, 22 is the definition of an old soul by the time she gets to go to earth

“I’m a manipulative megalomaniac who is incredibly opportunistic”

“Soul is first and foremost a kid’s movie” ....you know just because something is animated doesn’t make it mainly for kids....and there is such a middle ground called “for all ages”.

I wouldn't call it a kids "kids" movie

“Most people wish they never died” There is literally nothing weird about that to imply something wrong with the movies great beyond, but literally just a joke about how in general none of us actually want to DIE.

Jamie fox did some good voice acting

Did anyone else notice that when the souls went to the great beyond on the Conveyor belt, it sounded like a bug zapper? Not reassuring!

i feel like they should have been a scene at the end showing joe at a very old age and 22 at a very young age meeting again

I personally don’t think PIXAR ever released a “kid’s movie.”

I think the comment about "wish they never died" speaks to life on earth, not the great beyond. Many people enjoy life and never want to die. Most people believe the great beyond will be better, but are in no hurry to get there. Terry would know that better than anyone: Terry prepares souls for life on earth with the knowledge that the great beyond is waiting for them when they die. The great beyond has to be worth the effort, right? If it wasn't, why bother preparing souls, right?

Nobody's gonna mention that Joe basically died again while "zoning out" playing piano?

“You can’t crush a soul here, that’s what earth is for”

The whole point of life is just to live. You don’t have to do some big great thing. Just enjoy yourself and live your life the way you want to. We’re not here for no reason. We chose to come here. Just to experience being a human. And you get to choose how you live your life. So don’t waste a second and live it the way you want.

So we really gone pretend that that half drunken slushy wasn't just piss in a cup?🤣🤣

When Joe leaves the hospital first thing I said to my husband was “how’d he get the catheter out ?”

I can’t help but feel like most of the humor in this movie is aimed at adults and/or teenagers. I just don’t think a lot of young kids would understand most of them.

This is the most mature movie pixar ever created imo. The ending is very unexpected but welcomed.

The lady talking about a walrus is speaking an Inuit language. She may just be from a walrus hunting village.

6:18 anybody notice that a few of the people whose names are on the wall are still alive? eg Jan Kowalski and Jiri Svoboda. Maybe the movie implies that a living person can mentor a soul by leaving their physical body during sleep and entering the astral plane?

The Knicks joke had me rolling. I dont even like basketball or follow it, but I know enough to get that

The last part.... "Oi!! The movie is over Go home!!". 😅

During that pizza dragging scene, there was also a nod to the pizza mouse, a real mouse seen in a video dragging a piece of pizza down a flight of stairs.

This video missed all the real things adults catched lmao

Kids movies are going to rule the world in 2021

What this video expects adults: Adults: *Sees brand of shoes Adults:*Wheezing Haha Jimmy Shoes.

Best animated movie of the year 😁🌟👍🏻🎼

What I think when it says like many Souls wish they never died is because leaving your family and not being able to see them for a very long time not even knowing if you'll actually be able to see them again kind of thing

But did he call Lisa??? I need answers. 🙃

What about the guy that had to got to therapy or worse because he ran into Terry ?

Me: Is an adult Also me: Noticed literally nothing in this video except the Knicks jab

some of these theories feel like grasping at straws

Hate to break it to you, but how can Adults notice any of these things if they were contemplating their own life or having an existential crisis while watching this movie... I really liked this movie lol

Nice video. But as a musician, calling an audition a “tryout” kinda hurts.

There was this female soul in the bridge to the great beyond while Joe was running into that says "Where are my pants?" if you translate it into English. Which is sad to think because we know what is being implied.

Loved the movie, but this video was just straight bs.

I guess when I become 18 in a couple of months these facts will just get uploaded into my brain so I can notice niche references in movies for kids.

Wait I think I figured out the Walrus thing the clothing and features suggest someone of Inuit or Eskimo descent and they have a walrus god or deity I believe

The big group of souls on the conveyor belt were covid-19 victims

I picked up the line where Jerry says most people wish they hadn’t died the way they did. After all, how many people die well before their natural deaths can occur? I picked it up as Jerry referring to those people wishing they hadn’t died the way they DID, in contrast to the old ladies Joe encounters at the conveyor belt, who appear to have died of natural causes and seem happy to have finally passed. I didn’t think it had anything to do with the great beyond

Now if the count hasn't been off in centuries, could they be referencing jesus here? 😏

I noticed "The Walrus" reference, but my mind went immediately to The Beatles song. Was kinda (For $ reasons, not) surprised that it wasn't playing in the background

The pizza seen paid homage to the rat dragging the pizza down a a stairwell viral video from years back

The count hasn’t been off in centuries...Jesus?

22: I'm gonna make you wish you never died Jerry: Most people wish that 22

Clearly we watch movies for very different reasons. Because, wow..

Great movie with a good message

Maybe the sudden crowd of souls represent the Innocent souls who lost to the coronavirus.... OMG Pixar predicted the Pandemic????

I just got a soul ad from this video *W h a t*

The "lost souls" are likely people like Joe who had a near death experience, but rather than returning to their bodies, wound up where they weren't supposed to be. Being in the Great Before sounds like a highly implausible place for a soul to end up, but not so much when you consider souls on Earth can go back there by getting in the zone. This conveys the metaphysical nature of the areas shown and that they shouldn't necessarily be thought of as discrete spacial locations that are somehow separate from life on Earth. They are better thought of as existing more parallel to it, like the interior psychological worlds inhabiting each person's mind in Inside Out. To put it another way, Joe isn't literally on the way to the after life any more than Riley has literally forgotten how to feel joy in Inside Out when said emotion falls down into the proverbial recycle bin of her brain. The escalator represents his brain going through the natural processes of preparing for death, but he doesn't go all the way. Stuff like winding up in the body of a cat seems much harder to frame as an analogy, but consider what would happen if you empathized with what another person had to say to you so well that you did not only understand them better, but you also managed to get an outside view on your own life. Building on this again, 22 is not literally a soul that hasn't been born, but a person who doesn't see the point in engaging with life before they've had the chance to experience. Everything seems so difficult with so little payoff; something that Joe himself has been through. The mentors represent the various figures of our culture that are held up as examples; people who become great at something are typically inspired by those that came before them. In some cases, great figures who have been long dead. These people allude to the sense that life is worth living, but the basic sensation is something felt on a subjective basis, and that's the spark. All that said, there are lots of ways the analogy breaks down in each movie because they are, after all, allegorical.

Thank you!

i’m glad my parents never pay attention to these easter eggs, they just watch the movie

"After all there is no such thing as a free lunch no matter how good it smells" Mr beast : am I a joke to you?

This video had a lot of potential... like how mentors show how people influence the petiole after them on earth even in death And how the great beyond is zapping them showing that people don’t love their life to the fullest because they believe there’s an after life and they don’t have to

Terry doesn’t miss a beat.

Wow...Just wow!

22 and The Knicks scene was so funny, idk whose idea that was to include that but kudos to you that was genius

Best move shows you a lot of things about life 💯❤️

7:51 but someone peed in that

Great movie 🍿 🎥

Honestly it seems to me that adults get all existential and philosophical about it mainly. What I noticed was 1. That life is really like that where you make friends and lose them? 22s before life is a lot like real life. It's worth it to have the memories and the in moment joys. And 2. Living in the moment, enjoying what people take for granted or consider silly, is AMAZING.

0:32 you can see part of the silvercup studios sign in long island city queens with the 7 train running past it.

This video was a stretch team

“Hello my name is Johnny Cash”. Kind of a nice nod to his first words in the live version of Folsom Prison

The second time Pixar made the beheaded Marie Antoinette joke

Walrus thing might be a Beatles reference too

The taxi car not getting their money drove me crazy lol

Ohh I love this film

I loved the Knicks part lmao

Thank you for noticing George Orwell. Also did you not wonder why none of the mentors 22 talks negatively about are not.on that wall. The only 1 she talks about in good light was George Orwell

Oh good that's what's up I'm glad I didn't think I was tripping out over how advance this movie really is for little kids when I watched this high af...

I wish I was born when Johnny Sins died so he can teach me before going down to earth lol

I love how he played Ray Charles in the 2005 movie biography and now he's playing a jazz musician in this movie too?!? Go ahead Jamie Foxx lol I see what you did there

7:19 also i think the miss was a reference to ewing’s missed last minute layup

Was that walrus dream reference not related to the Ambien Walrus?

The Knicks joke is so funny

a would love a short film sequel to this movie to see where joe gardner and 22 are now

In the teachers part I saw Albert Einsteins name tag LOL

@2:10 the walrus could be talking about how some religions think they are going to be past on to an animal when they die, like in moana with her grandmother

To me personally, the Knicks joke was my favorite🤣

Y'all did Terry wrong. They were an amazing spiritual plane of existence! The MVP 🔥💀🐜

I want part 2 😭

the first easter egg i noticed was Jimmy Shoes 😂

I love how videos like this never mention about 22 is an old soul that gonna live in a young body

Soul makes me feel weird

I cried watching this, i dont know why.

I feel like the walrus line is a reference to ambien overdose...

Quiet coyoteeeeeeee

nice

The walrus line may also be referring to Inuit myths

I bet the next pixar movie will be about how it feels to be your own worst enemy? Story about person life go through struggle of making bad decisions that doesn't work for them because they are trap in their way because they feel they don't deserve to be safe or have life of fulfilment. They listen that voice in their head or self.

The whole premis of the movie is how beautiful it is to be alive. Wdym the great beyond may not be so great? It'd just be going home after a long vacation

People just don't want to die when you think about it. Since its a brand new world or well, the afterlife. And imagine how you'd feel realizing you just died.
