And not just once. I've rewatched it many times and never finished with a dry eye. Even just watching this reaction has me going.

The reason why Dante can cross into the world of the dead is that it was believed that the Xoloescuincles (This is Dante's breed) were the spiritual guides of the deceased and took them to Mictlan, which is the name of the world of the dead in Mexico and also in our culture, we do not see death as something bad and that is why we have el Dia de los Muertos to remember our loved ones. ANDDDD Also, the reasons of the color of the spirit guides, its a way to represent them, and we call them Alebrijes, and i think thats all(?

This movie is very special to me. It came out in theaters when my Mom was going through chemo so I didn’t want to really endure a movie about the dead while my mom was going through that. Unfortunately, things got worse and she passed away several months later. That same year, both of my Grandmothers passed away. Music is a huge part of my family so this entire movie brought me to grieve properly and to never forget them. No pain, just love.

Fun fact: Mama Imelda is voiced by Elle's brunette friend from Legally Blonde Also if you notice at the end of the movie, Hector is wearing shoes. He'd been barefoot until then so they really accepted him back to the family

When Coco came out the year before my grandma died, and Miguel meeting this bunch of relatives he only saw in pictures or heard stories about was so relatable as I never met my grandfathers, both died, before I was born.

@@captnonius that’s… completely different? we (you included) clicked on this video knowing that we would watch someone watch coco, expecting her to cry, probably even hoping that she would. if you just see some rando crying in a cafe, that has the potential to be quite awkward, because you don’t know why it’s happening or how you should react.

What I love about Coco is that Pixar wasn’t afraid on doing the whole “it’s only adults who died” because celebrating Day of the Dead there are two versions. To celebrate the sad death of a adult(s) or death of a child(s). Sometimes it’s both. For adults we put up an alter that contains a picture, but also drinks they may have liked (alcohol most of the time) and food of course. While for a child we put up toys such as a small toy train or stuffed animals. Along with food they liked of course. No matter what, a good percentage of the time no one cries because we believe they are there with us at that very moment. And that they are in a better place.

It baffles me that some people haven’t seen this absolute masterpiece

“You’re not that ugly you’re just dead” my new favourite quote 😂

Xoloizcuintles are dogs who "help people go to the other side" and they were (sadly) buried alive with the dead in prehispanic times. That’s why Dante can just come and go. Also I think a lot of Mexicans just think babies and dogs can see "things that are not from this world" but not from any particular culture, more of a general thing.

I was supposed to watch this with my grandma when it came out. She died before we could, and I can’t watch it without crying. A lot. It’s really a beautiful story.

I saw this for the first time not long after my girlfriend had suddenly passed away in her sleep, just 2 months shy of her 36th birthday. To say that it was rough would be an understatement. I had no idea that what I was going to watch would "hit home" so much. I remember being amazed that Pixar/Disney made a movie that dealt with the Day of the Dead, but they really made me a new participant in that celebration. ETA: Yup, it broke me again watching it here.

I watched it just after my dad died because my cousin invited me to go to the cinema I don't think they realised what it was about, I found it tough to get through but it is a favourite film now that time has passed.

One of my favourite details at the end, when that enormous dragon familiar returns to the real world side by side with Dante it's just a tiny regular house cat. It says a lot about the personalities of cats that their egos as reflected by the spirit realm are as gigantic formidable beasts.

Such a beautiful film. And I'm glad to see something so positive about Mexico. I'm so sick of our southern neighbors being demonized. Viva Mexico 🇲🇽

So glad I'm not the only one who guessed the Hector reveal/twist! I spent my whole first time watching this going 'it HAS to be Hector... maybe it isn't? no it HAS to!' Was still shocked when the twist actually happened though! I love this movie so much!

Jess, the song Imelda sings is "La Llorona" which is a traditional folk song that, depending on your interpretation and context, can be at the same time and interchangeably, a song about unattainable love and also a song about death. The title character can both be interpreted as a beautiful, aloof woman, who may or may not be dead, or as death itself.

I was a sobbing mess at the end of this movie. I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much! :)

Another fun fact: Hector, Miguel's grandfather is voiced by Gael García, the actor who played Jake in Werewolf by night ❤

Dante is a Xoloitzcuintli, a breed of dog once believed to act as psychopomps (guides to the land of the dead) so of course he can just move between worlds without issue even before he became a spirit guide.

This is one of a few movies that breaks me down. That scene where Miguel played the song for Coco always gets me, because it reminds me of my grandma. This movie got released only a few months after she passed so it hit me extra in the feels first time I saw it as a 14 year old.

Beautiful reaction! Coco is my favorite pixar movie, I watched this movie like 4 times in theaters and cry every time, I'm from Mexico and from the place this movie was based 🥰It was so great to see good representation of this beautiful tradition ❤Fun fact: Dante is a xoloitzcuintle, our ancestors believed that these dogs accompany the souls of the dead when they traveled to the underworld, that's the reason he was able to travel with Miguel in the movie 🐶

First of all I am SHOCKED you are just now seeing this masterpiece. And when it came out, it wrecked us all. A beautiful story of family and how music can do so much good in the world (living & dead).

Don't feel bad. This movie brings me to tears every single time. Every song is perfect. That scene with Mama Coco makes me cry a waterfall. The movie is overall perfect. This is tied with The Lion King for my favourite animated movie of all time.

Gael Garcia Bernal was one of the few who got to reprise their roles in the Spanish dub. As for Ernesto, he was dubbed by longtime musician Marco Antonio Solis. My parents grew up with his music. Marco was also part of a soft rock band called The Bukis. They recently did a couple of sold-out reunion tours here in the States. I actually grew up listening to some of their songs as well. @8:39 also, Fluffy!!! Yup, that’s Gabriel Iglesias. The dude cracks me up every time. @10:05 Frida Kahlo was voiced by Natalia Cordova. Yup, that’s Elena/Yo-Yo.

When this movie came out, it was THE BEST thing Disney had done in a while. This is one the best disney movies

Pixar always come through with the emotional movies and relatable characters. Luca, Brave, Big Hero 6, even the Incredibles, like, what the heck

Everybody's a gangsta 'till that one song brings back all the memories.

Jess, I'm a 53 year old man on more than 10 watchings and this movie still makes me cry. There's some serious magic in this flick!

Whenever I watch this movie, I think of my Grandma who passed not long after this came out. I didn’t cry when it was out, but now, I always do.

This movie is amazing. I love the concept of Day of the Dead and wish it was a thing in my culture. The idea of being close to and sharing memories and food with people who are no longer around. It sounds stupid but the closest I've got is picturing my dad's force ghost at the cinema with me watching the latest Star Wars movie, a franchise we both love(d). It was our thing as a dad daughter duo. I feel like the ability to blur the lines between the world of living and dead is such fundamental human wish. Reminds me of the Ed Sheeran lyric "I wish that heaven had visiting hours".

Pixar really knows how to hit you right in the feels 😭

21:59 Sometimes I forget not everyone speaks Spanish, so at first I was confused to why she needed subtitles. Then I was like,"Oh wait, she probably doesn’t speak Spanish, or at least isn’t fluent in Spanish."

Hector is voiced by Gael Garcia Bernal, who played Jack in Werewolf by Night. And Ernesto de la Cruz was voiced by Benjamin Bratt.

The way how I instantly started crying at remember me😭

I love this movie so much, the ending makes me cry every time. My favorite detail someone pointed out to me is Hector isn't wearing shoes until AFTER Imelda forgives him. The whole time he is seen barefoot (bare-bone?) up til then.

this movie actually made one of my friends who never really cries at movies tear up, it hit a bit close to home for her. amazing movie

Fun fact: Natalia Cordova-Buckley voices Frida Kahlo in this movie!

This movie DESTROYS me emotionally everytime I see it. Mama Coco juts reminds me of my own abuelita (who was the only one I ever knew, as my maternal one passed away before I was born). Between this and Encanto, I am hoping Disney and or Pixar do a movie set in Peru so I can cry even more about my homeland!

11:13 taking the opportunity to chip in the agents of shield reference there 🤣 love it

I watched this film in theaters with my two best friends. We’re all Mexican descent and we ugly cried at the end so much. I especially lost it as Miguel was rushing to Mama Coco, I almost that she had died before he got the chance to see her again. This film makes me remember my Abuelita who passed away ten years ago.

I turned this on to see how you'd react to a movie that made me cry like a baby when I saw it. And all I did was cry like a baby remembering it (unintentional).

I love that Hector got his guitar back in the end. That's the moment where I really lost it.

Just a fun fact, Gael Garcia Bernal the voice actor for Hector is Jack from werewolf by night. Also, loved your reaction Jess :)

A comment I've been reading everywhere is that Hector's VA brought his actual daughter in the studio, so "Remember Me" was literally sung by Hector and his daughter. 😭😭😭

If you want another movie to hit you in the feels, I HIGHLY recommend Jojo Rabbit. It’s not Pixar, but it’s in my top 5 favorite movies.

Always nice to see Héctor and Coco reunite rewatching this! Gael García Bernal voiced him and played Werewolf by Night! 🌕🐺

How are you this empathic? Great reaction dude.

this is genuinely one of the most beautiful stories in any movie ever. i haven't gotten through this movie without sobbing my eyes out a single time despite watching it at least 20 times 😭

“Dante, your going to end up staying down here.” 💀😂😂😂👏🏾

Hey Jess! I’m hoping that hurricane that just hit again didn’t make things worse for your grandparents in any way, but importantly hope y’all are safe 🙏🏼

It's a small touch I love, Miguel watches other people play and looks so genuinely enchanted by the performer. (Like when Hector is singing for his friend that one last time.) My brother (who also plays guitar) has similar awe with other guitarists. It makes me happy to see how the animators captured that with Miguel.

From Coco to Werewolf by Midnight, Gael Garcia Bernal (Hector and Jack Russell) is slowly becoming a Halloween icon.

Took my mom to see this in the and at the end when Coco was talking about her Papa, I was tearing up. Looked to my mom and she was sobbing as well. This was such a great movie.

FYI, Hector is voiced by Gael Garcia Bernal who also plays Jack Russel the werewolf in Werewolf by Night.

Fun fact for you. Frida Kahlo was voiced by Natalia Cordova-Buckley aka Elena/Yo-Yo from Agents Of Shield.

i watched this movie for the first time while my grandfather was in his deathbed (he lived for another 4 months but he was already in the last stage of alzheimers so he wasn't really living) and then the same day he passed away and it completely destroyed me the way coco resembles him so much not only in appearance but also in her sweetness, and obviously her illness. i cannot help but cry everytime she appears on tv but at the same i love watching coco because even though im from argentina and we don't have this in our culture, i like to believe that it is true and that he'll never be truly away because i make sure other people hear about him

Ok, I’m crying all over again. Q-Q When you were happy that “De La Cruz” seemed like a decent person, I was like… uh… she won’t be happy in 10 minutes. XD

My dad is half Mexican and got adopted out so he's actually country af. But this movie has honestly been my favorite because I love the idea that we have to keep the idea of our past loved ones alive to keep them going. I never met my grandpa and I miss my uncle David to death so this movie always reminds me to keep them in my heart. Another crazy thing was that music was important in both of those families so it all hits deep in this movie.

A fun fact that I learned: The creator of Coco said that even though Miguel and Ernesto weren’t blood related Ernesto’s Blessing still would have been able to send Miguel home because they both did genuinely believe they were family. Ernesto was even very protective of Miguel, holding him back when Hector was yelling at both of them, showing us that he really did genuinely care about Miguel. But when Miguel figured out that he poisoned Hector, the little spark of genuine care for someone other then himself, came to a crashing halt. So yeah, if Hector hadn’t interrupted the moment Ernesto’s Blessing really would have been enough to send Miguel home.
