      There's not really much going for Avatar 2, the visuals are great, yes. No denying that.
      But other than that and a couple good performances, the film feels more of the same with what came before with the first Avatar.
      I overheard someone at the cinema I work summarise the film.perfectly for me;
      "It was a 3 hour film that was 2 hours too long"
      The film just drags, the more I saw of it, the more I wondered why it was included beyond beautifuls visual effects.
      Puss in Boots on the other hand, barely passes an hour and a half in runtime, yet so much is told, so many characters are developed and ALL feel relevant to the story and most importantly, nothing feels wasted.
      It's a complete story with compelling characters in a very personal story, which felt more fulfilling than the, quite frankly, overhyped sequel to a 13 year old film.

Like I said, these people are supposed to die, but since they didn't because one of them had a premonition. However, they're still pretty much on his death list, so he has to do his job. And like in puss, he could still have a short screen time.

    The Adversary: The opponent that you have to overcome to prove that you have grown if you want to live
    The Hunter: The relentless monster that chases you down. No matter where you go, how far you run, they're on your heels
    The Friend: The last smile you see, the warm chuckle and a friendly face that eases your pain as you welcome the end

    @Rukdug Před rokem +26

    I think part of what really adds depth to Death is one little line in the cave of lost souls, where one of the past lives of Puss claims that Death's "breaking the rules". And that past Puss is technically correct. Death's being far too proactive and personal, physically manifesting himself to fight the cat. He's literally breaking the rules of how he's supposed to work...but the instant he "doesn't see" the arrogant legend who thinks they're immortal, Death goes back to following the rules. Puss will die, and Death will be their to collect him...but he won't personally snuff the life out of someone who actually values it. That's breaking the rules.

    • @sonicmastersword8080
      @sonicmastersword8080 Před měsícem

      Technically under the classic nature of how Death operates, he did not break the rules. You can cheat death, but only so many times. Death thought the idea of Puss seeing himself as immortal and living life doing nothing but cheating death, exploiting his extra lives as a cop out, warranted Puss's death purely on the grounds that he cheated him too many times, especially without respecting him.
      Godfather Death illustrates this well. Death's own godson cheated him; however he forgave him once on the condition that if he did it again, he would take his life. Upon the second violation, he fulfilled his threat-even though he agreed to be the boy's godfather. Death does not play favorites.

    "Death is inevitable, but its appearance depends on the type of life you've lived" that hit different. I'd like to think, that while you might be at your strongest, when having lived a fulfilling live with people you love, death also loses some of its terror as some of it is you being confronted with your regrets and living a good fulfilling life tends to leave you with less regrets (ideally). Loved the video!

    The use of a whistle as a sign of menace goes back all the way to Fritz Lang's 1931 masterpiece 'M', one of the very first German sound films. The central character, a child murderer (played by Peter Lorre in a career-defining role), whistles a melody from Edvard Grieg's opera 'Peer Gynt' every time he goes out to seek out a young girl and kill her. It's used to terrifying effect, without actually ever showing the murders themselves.

    Call me crazy but I’ve always imagine that Death always found the soul of a life with substance more taste full than a life wasted and preferred souls with actual flavour.
    Going by that logic I believe Death in the movie stalled for as long as he could to try to add some flavour to Puss’es soul after the last 8 left him with a bitter taste, only to realize that if he killed Puss at the wishing star he’d be robbing himself of a good meal.

      I think its more leaning onto the fact that everyone wants to control when they will die, and how they will die and not actually being immortal, immortality loses the real purpose of life, and living is a struggle, thats a fact, eventually boredom and tiredness will get to the immortal people and they will wish death... Because in all reality, if we have actually fulfilled our life goals, then we are willing to embrace death and not fear it, for death is peace after a long struggle...what makes people fear death is how unexpected and unpredictable it is, but if humans want anything they want to control when they will seize to exist and when they will finally rest, not to live for so long that it will be tiring not to mention boring.

    Puss basically personified the three brothers' lives from deathly hallows.
    When he had the nine lives, he felt mighty and invincible and lived recklessly as if nothing could take him down, like how the first brother was with the elder wand and went ahead disrespecting it.
    After his eight lives get depleted and he comes close to his brush with death, he spends the rest of the movie running away and trying to cheat death in any way possible-hiding away in a home, trying to get extra lives, whatever, etc.
    However, towards the end of the movie and probably in the end of his life, not only does death and puss depart on respectable terme, but the next time they meet they will greet each other at the end of a long life as friends, like the third brother.

      He did not give up. The last interaction between Puss and Death was that of mutual respect. As Death sheathed his sickles, he gave a little bow, similar to Godzilla and Kong. He is Death, his nature is to kill, so he resents the fact that he failed, but he is also fair, seeing as Puss killed his own legend before the wolf could. And so, he left him to live with the last admonition to live his final life well, and with a reminder that they will see each other again, and Puss acknowledged the inevitability of it. I imagine when the time comes, they will not meet as adversaries.

    this film was fantastic. beautiful animation and art direction, smart writing with a great balance between comedic timing and emotional maturity, and the antagonists are handled perfectly. as an adult watching this film I would argue the lesson of valuing the one life you have to live hits harder since you become conditioned to take so much for granted, but the movie is obviously still very much accessible to younger audiences as well.

    I find it interesting that when Puss went into hiding at Mama Luna’s home, it’s implied that a lot of time passed by, enough time for Puss to grow a long beard. During that time of security, Death never showed up. It would have been very easy for Death to find Puss and hunt him down at his most vulnerable. But why didn’t he do it? I believe that during that period of time, Puss was actually taking his ninth live seriously. If Puss had never left Mama Lunas’s safety, Death would have left him alone, because Puss had learned to fear and respect Death and value his last life. Death only comes back when Puss began to search for more lives, giving Death the confirmation that Puss hadn’t learned his lesson.

    Idk if anyone realized, but deaths whistle is the beginning to Ring Around The Rosey, which is a reference to the black death/plague that was probably going on at the time. It also is a nod to how death comes for all. Ashes to ashes, we all fall down

    I can wax lyrical all day about the animation style... Apart from Jack Horner, who just looks like the embodiment of morbidity, the art style is "just right."
    But, for me, it's the story, the message... And, most of all, the way they wove the wolf into the story, at first, we see him as an obstacle for the protagonist, then an actual threat, then an impossible foe, and, finally, someone we end up respecting, along with the role he played in the character arc for Puss.

    The funny thing comes to mind for Puss is this is his Shrek story, this is him finding the loved ones that his closest friend already found. He is like the last guy who is still searching when the answer is already in front of him. Donkey and Shrek honestly his brothers, have already accomplished so much. Part of me entertains the idea that Puss is in some way trying to live up to them by continuing the adventure even though its already done or at least the true reason for adventuring.

    I really loved this movie and I think it is one of the best dreamworks movies that have came out In a while, and I was really pleased with the direction they took the story, especially death. I think movies are meant to be fun and enjoyable of course but I was glad this one had a real underlining meaning and true moral to the story. Because it not only can teach us a valuable lesson but it also makes the story so much better, I mean I really liked the last movie but it was the same thing over and over, just a bunch of jokes playing off of classic fairy tales, and this movie had tons of gags based around fairy tales (jacks magical granny bag) but because they made the story around such a powerful subject it made the story and characters so much better. Puss being afraid of dying and learning the value of life made such a great character arch. Kitty learning to trust again. All of these aspects of the story came from puss fearing death.

    So, an interesting thing I heard from a pal's old folk over here in his tribe that kinda fits though no idea how true it is if any have info about this - my friend awhile back we had a discussion about some tales and one of them noted about the idea of white wolves being seen as a nature spirit Sage. A spirit taking its form that helps one find their path or guides them.
    Whether intentional or not ( Probably more so to be the Pale Death instead) it works extremely well with El Lobos feeling about life. He just cant shake his habit of being a teacher as much as he enjoys the hunt - hence his frustration at playing with his food to much, losing the chance to slay the arrogant "Legend/Lie" Puss once was. lol

      At the end Puss is no longer scared of death. If fearing death was the point of the movie, why would it end on the note of Puss no longer fearing death.

      It would have been a very hollow feeling of happiness, a mask to his fear, KNOWING that Death is out there, waiting for him to die another 8 times and would likely be even more angry the next time they met.
      Hel, I reckon it'd drive Puss insane, and when Death came for him, he was nothing more than a hollow, broken cat. The legend long since faded away, no-one seeing him as anything more than a feral stray who lost its way.
      I think at that point, Death would pity him.

He's antagonistic yes, but he's not a/the villain. You explained it perfectly that he's just doing his job, but he's enjoying it because of Puss's attitude. He says it himself: "I'm Death, straight up." Death is neutral, but it doesn't mean he's not gonna take things personally if you disrespect him.

    Someone once used this analogy for life and death. Imagine giving someone a test and telling them there is no time limit to the test but yet they HAVE to take the test. You’ll see they’ll never take the test because there is no point there is no limit to the test for them to have a reason. It’s like life, give someone immortality and watch them never enjoy life because there is no finality, there is no purpose without an end to culminate it all. Death gives life its meaning because it is an end, we never waste what we do because we know that this is it, this is our one life and it’s best to live it with the ones we love and cherish every moment before that inevitability arrives.
