The thing about the whole betrayal is:
Jasper never talked with Klaus and Alva honestly about WHY he is doing it. So both came implicitly to the conclusion that all he set in motion was a selfless act. Especially the whole "Christmas Project" he came up with.
Then Japers father turns up and reveals that "Good Job Jasper, you did the task I have given you, come back to a live of luxury and leave this terrible place at the end of the world".
Of course they will feel betrayed and used. Especially when Jasper actually does leave with his father in the carriage.
And of course they forgive him relativly fast as he turns up again, showing that even when he started the whole project from a selfish intention that he infact truelly cares for Klaus, Alva and the Children.
Especially after seeing the lengths he went to to protect the toys
I dont think working to earn the right to go back home is a "selfish" intention. Especially since he did it by improving the lives of others. That`s like saying people are selfish because they do a job in order to earn a paycheck.
@@Morten_StorvikI say it loops back to selfishness because he did dupe them by feigning that it was only ever for the children in the beginning. It was ultimately good, but that was never his original intention at all. He just really wanted to get away from them all
I mean in my way of thinking the liar reveal could've been handled like the situation in road to el dorado type of way but like i agree that the liar reveal (albeit over the top does work well to set up the last act of the movie) if anything i feel like they should've double down on the ending being the villager still manage to destroy the present and the carriage and the children didn't get their present but still would've done kindness either way because then it would've translate better as in a true act of selfless kindness message that the movie is trying to translate
The road to redemption and selflessness is a step-by-step path...one that not a lot of people choose to take
The Sami are the indigenous people of northern Scandanavia. They live in the northern regions of Norway, Sweden, and Finland.
Fun fact: Kristoff from Frozen was meant to be of Sami descent.
Right and Kristoff was to the Mountain Sami since they are the ones that have Heards of Reindeer in this movie they were of the Fisherman Sami people/tribe
IIRC, Renee Zellweger is actually partially of Sami descent too.
*an indigenous people.
He's entitled and completely unmotivated, not really lazy. He was drifting and had no purpose in life which is why his father had to give him a brutal wake up call before it was too late.
"Purpose" is a myth. I suspect you mean he had no goal.
@@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps "Purpose" is not a myth. It has a very specific meaning.
@@Morten_Storvik Of course it has a very specific meaning but, like "manifest destiny" for example, it is entirely imaginary and is a myth.
@@Mansplainer2099-jy8ps "Destiny" is a future that someone or something will have. It is ultimately my destiny in life that i will die one day. So no, even destiny is not a myth.
@@Morten_Storvik "Manifest destiny" is a myth and is separate from the general term destiny.
"A true act of goodwill always sparks another" - THAT is the lesson/moral of the movie
Agreed
You mentioned Jespers work ethic multiple times, but the thing about his work ethic was that he was working to go home, to leave and to abandon the friends and children he made happy. He wasn't "just doing his job", he was literally manipulating the whole town for his own goals, a town that didn't even need or want him in the first place. He didn't have a change of heart at all, yet: he was still keeping track of the letters that he had to post, and he was still lying and taking money from children who didn't know better, and up until his father suddenly showed up to tell him he was done, Jesper did all of that to be able to stop working, and I also think that until he saw how betrayed Klaus and Alva felt, Jesper never would've thought to himself that this was actually a bad thing to do.
That is why that moment (at least for me) didn't come out of nowhere. it's the first moment where Jesper's has to decide why he wanted to do what he did: his own belief "everyone is out to get something" and Klaus's "Every act of goodwill always sparks another" are finally challenging each other head on.
lol yeah idk why he kept mentioning Jesper's "work ethic" like it wasn't abundantly clear that he was only willing to work hard to get back to his cushiony life.
Explain to me how its a bad thing that Jesper was actually putting in effort to what he wanted. He was working to earn his way back home and he did so by improving the lives of an entire community. Yet he is a scumbag for doing so?
@@Morten_Storvik He was a morally corrupt scumbag, because he was willing to mislead, abandon and betray an entire community including his friends in order to live a lazy, wasteful life off of someone elses money. the fact that his work seemed to temporarily improve the lives of people is why the lie worked, but until he actually learned to care about people and follow through on the expectations that he was deliberately setting up, he was actively and maliciously setting up the entire town to fail and fall back into their old patterns.
IDK, but that seems bad to me.
@@Morten_Storvikthe problem is not what he did, but that he hid the reason why he did it.
Well, for example, a person comes into your life who helps you (even if you didn’t want this help and didn’t ask for it), motivates you, you become emotionally attached to this person and consider him a close friend. And then it turns out that he doesn't really care about you and did it for his own benefit, manipulating you and using you. He is still the person who helped you, but this is a completely different relationship dynamic, you are not his friend, you are just a resource to achieve his goal. It is this change that feels like a betrayal.
for anyone wondering what margu is saying:
Can I get a toy?
Could I also get one, please?
hello post man
Can you speak with me now, then?
I have waited for (so) long
Are you going to help me? Finally!
I don't think you understand me
you are a dummy
I would really like a toy
I like her, she's kind
I would like a sleigh, a biiig sleigh
He's a little bit of a dummy, right?
(Margu) - Mom, dad! He came, he came!
(Father) - Oh, what a nice sleigh!
(Mother): It's cold, you should put on your hat. And don't sleigh too fast
This is how you sleigh
It was he who helped me
(Father) - We heard that you might need help
(Mother) - Thank you! You made her so happy
(Father) - On three! One, two, three!
Oh gosh, it barely fits, he is a big man
What is happening?
Jesper! Don't go, Jesper! Jesper, (I don't understand)
You know that I can't understand you yet, right?
(Man) - Good! That was the last present... be careful, be careful! Take it very slowly
(Woman) - Why are they here?
Thanks, I also heard they got an actual Sami girl to say the voice lines.
@@rockyroads8802they did! watch the clips here on youtube, she’s so cute!!
This movie recently came out but it is such a classic. SO glad you’re watching this. And Merry Christmas!!
2019...recently
@@Sarah_R. time lost meaning after 2020, it's all a blur
@@AncientJerks what's 2020?
I think that Lydia became the initial "Spirit of Christmas."
For me the tears came from Margu's song, Invisible. It struck me through my heart! Then when Klaus leaves to join Lydia... game over. Massive puddle of tears.
Your tears and crying reminded me of when we lost Gregory in The Sandman!
The lesson is about his motivations. In the beginning, he is working to get back to his sedentary life. By the end he has fallen in love with the people and a life of service.
I dont think putting in effort to earn your way back home is a bad motivation. Especially when you improve peoples lives.
I really love how they set up Jesper as such an unlikeable character. The effort he puts into not doing work is the irony. He works hard when it serves his interests. The flip-side is Klaus who understands the joy in a true self-less act.
The animation is all 2D, but used 3D modeling to help the artists reference the volumes and lighting for everything. It's a beautiful companion to Into the Spider-Verse that is 3D and uses 2D methods within it for its own style.
I recently watched this movie for the first time and I loved it. It's timeless! It perfectly balances modern and classic!
Jesper was "just doing his job" with the intention of LEAVING them. At that point Jesper had already established meaningful relationships (plus a potential business venture lol) with Klaus and Eva, you really thought they wouldn't be upset that he operated out of his own selfish needs? Yall dwell on the most trivial things sometimes 💀
It's a must that when watching the scenes proceeding and following and the delivering of the sled scene itself to really pay attention lyrics and their meaning and how it feeds into the greater message of the entire movie . Because if you do and you make sure every time you watch it to really listen to words and not just letting the melody serve as background to the sledding action that song and scene and with your knowledge of how the story ends those scenes will it you even harder every time.
Okay. Laugh-crying along with you two here at the end.
Your reactions were both priceless. Merry Christmas 🎄⛄
Merry Christmas!!!🎄
React to bahubali another hits of s.s rajamouli the director of RRR
That T-Rex sweater is so dope, where do I get one?
Edit: So, I think his journey is not from lazy and entitled, though that's a part of it -- rather, if you listen to his mantra (two out of three are objects, and the butler brings him objects) -it's that his narrative arc is moving from the "material" to the "spiritual" - or, you know, the friends we made along the way. He doesn't care about the penny the letter brings anymore, but cares about delivering the present for the joy it *gives*.
I think part of the theme is encapsulated in the transformation of the town. It was bitter and angry, driven by old jealousies and hatreds, far beyond the point that they served any meaningful purpose to the people of the town. But, ultimately, the thing that's keeping both families powerful is that hatred. Their attachment to this division is tearing the town apart, but in the end, it's put aside by the giving of love and the spiritual connection of union with another person.
Same with the teacher. She is piling up her money to get the hell out of there, and although she may have once made an effort, it's just not worth it anymore. While their social system clearly needs a better public schooling system, her character changes to where she is giving her earnings to the students, but also providing them with the ability to communicate. In the end, the knowledge she has is able to not only give these children a future, but also to bring together communities that were, at best, frosty.
This has become my most favorite Christmas movie of all time. For the longest time it was The ref. Followed by Muppet Christmas Carol and then Scrooged.
Little bit of trivia about the movie from the director "Well the town of Smeerenburg - that’s Smeerenburg without the [second] ‘s’ - actually does, well did, exist. In my research, I found a list of the northernmost human settlements in history. And one of them was Smeerenburg. It was up in Scandinavia, I think it was Norway. It used to be a very prosperous whaling post back in the 1600s. I like my films to have certain roots in plausible reality. Now the place is a pile of rocks and does not exist anymore. It’s a bit of a thing of legend for Scandinavian culture. So I thought, well let me kind of misspell it on purpose, but I’d still like to have that grounded sense of a plot." Talk about going the extra mile. Really wish more directors had this level of dedication.
The colourful "elfs" are in fact Saami, though you're not far off as they're natives of northern Scandinavia where people like me, an actual Swede (lol) live beside them, though they live much further north in the country, whereas I'm in the south. Reclusive lot, but peaceful. Big fans of raindeer.
Jesper couldn’t do his job until he roped in Klaus. That’s why it’s a betrayal. He used them to get home.
Just watched this movie for the first time today, and then I saw your reaction. What a coincidence.
By the way, I think you are confusing White Christmas with Holiday Inn. The is no blackface in White Christmas, but there definitely is in Holiday Inn. Holiday Inn is where the song White Christmas originally first appeared.
Oooo good to know, that’s my bad
You’re missing the point. He’s not working because of a strong work ethic. He’s working hard just to get back to his pampered life.
You can’t hold this movie to one message it has multiple messages. Work ethic, change of heart, one active goodwill sparks and other, and so on and so and so on…….. And I’m OK with that. Excellent movie cried along with you guys.
You guys need to remember this is his last chance he has to work hard this time. He was never incapable of working hard He just never had a reason to before. His plan in the beginning is to go back home and never work another day in his life. The ability to work hard is only a tiny part of work ethic. True work ethic is more about the moral drive that inspires hard work then the hard work itself. He starts with no motivation to work hard. Motivation is forced upon him. He learns to look past his petty motivations and see the moral benefits of his hard work to those around him turning his hard work into real work ethic.
Klaus is my favorite Christmas movie. The departure of that sweet old man killed me. He was called home to fulfill a mission. ❤
Hello! I'm from Spain and my mom is a teacher. We've actually lived in the US and in Canada too!
Teachers get a lot more funding here in Spain than in the States. And the movie was directed by a spaniard. American schools are a little bit of nightmare fuel for us here so yeah...
This is a wonderful movie. Absolute gem that not enough people have seen.
I love it when movies make you go all "this made me feel things and I hate it!" XD
This is my favourite Christmas movie so far
33:12 Aah, a remeniscence back to Sound of Her Wings.
Not so much that he was just doing his job, he was actively manipulating them, which is the problem. Like, your UPS driver isn't trying to convince you about the moral wonders of same-day delivery -- in everyone's eyes he helped, he was operating from a state of altruism to "save the children" and they jumped on board with him, invested in the good of it all. And then they found out it was /just/ a job for him, and they'd been emotionally dragged into helping him
At the very least, to me feels like convincing people into unpaid labor on the basis of humanitarian efforts while secretly pocketing the benefits
As I remember... White Christmas does not have the black face scene. It is a movie called Holiday Inn where they set up an inn that has musical productions based on each holiday... they get to Lincoln's birthday and it goes... bad. I had remembered seeing it as a teenager in the 80's and liking it. Though it seemed like basically the same movie as White Christmas. I searched for it for a long time and couldn't find it. Then I found it on Amazon Prime. I started watching it and hit that scene and was like... nope.. .this doesn't hold up and had to stop it. I keep considering typing what they said in that scene to highlight how bad it was... I just can't. Plus I suspect it would (justifiably) get censored.
Thank you. Both Holiday Inn and White Christmas feature Bing Crosby singing the song "White Christmas", but the firmer is a black and white film with Fred Astaire, while the latter is a color film with Danny Kaye. White Christmas does not have a blackface scene.
The black face is in “Holiday Inn” NOT “White Christmas”. Just FYI
It was ROBBED of an Academy Award after winning 7 Annie Awards and a BAFTA. The Academy’s contract with Disney/ABC came through for the undeserving Toy Story 4.
Toy Story 4 was good though.
@@Morten_Storvik It wasn't better than Klaus, and that's the only point that matters in this case.
I, too, can't help to say "fuck off" at this emotional cannon! Buy in a good way. Thank you for reacting to this beautiful movie.
those last words always get me crying
It was really fun watching you two try so hard to dislike this movie - and utterly failing in that attempt! Good job! And to add to a comment below about the Saami, in this movie they got a real Saami girl to do the voice of Margu and used real Saami dialog that actually makes sense (or so they say.)
They were trying to dislike it? Lol
it was real, you can find clips on youtube… and trying to dislike?
He was lazy because he lived so well but when he was in the town he realized he had to work hard the be allowed to go back to his rich life so that was his motivation and he mentioned it 3 times while in the town :o and the whole chalk diagram with the 6000 letters at the top was his goal, to go back and we never saw him change his mind completely about leaving and he didn't know how to tell his dad that this town is his home now because he would have to leave his dad after all but his dad was understanding then which is sweet! :3
Happy Holidays, y'all!❤️
Man finally someone who cried during that, i thought i was the only one fr
I question why The Crown, another thing from Netflix, has been given a DVD release...but Klaus hasn't
Exactly how I reacted, I personally think this is an underrated Christmas movie!
I’ve been to the Christmas Market in Vancouver, and I can confirm: it is just like that town.
Borrowing heavily (But not in a bad way) from Pratchett's "Going Postal"; which has a wonderful adaptation on Brit Box.
Oooo we’ll have to check it out!
@@NerdyNightly Hogfather and colour of magic are also great discworld films (: Hogfather is christmas based
I don't think it's that Jasper was lazy or even necessarily unmotivated. What he was was narcissistic and self-serving with no interest in how his actions affect other people.
yeah The little Sami Girl Margu was my favorite every time when i see the sail sled scene my eyes water up 😭😭
I cried more the 2nd time I watched this movie as I realized so many things you dont really know until you watch the whole thing through the first ttime. honestly I cry everytime I watch this. Great great movie
Between this and everything everywhere all at once your poll winners are loving making y'all cry xD
An American Tail begins in a Hanuka celebration, when I was a kid was my introduction to jewish people bc it made me ask my father what was Hanuka, so this is my tip for non christmas movie 🥰
Instant classic love to watch this movie on Christmas.
That was such a great reaction. Love the laugh/crying, that's new. XD
The message of the story
A TRUE SELFLESS ACT ALLWAYS SPARKS ANOTHER
I don't know if it's true but I think it was by the same studio who produced Arcane and that's cool.
It isn't. This movie was made in Spain by a Spanish studio leaded by the animator Sergio Pablos. "Arcane" was made by a French studio and Riot Games.
Love this animation !!
Take a shot every time Nerdy says impeccable 😂
BTW... the movie with actual blackface is 1942 Holiday Inn with Crosby. It is a soap opera movie.
White Christmas uses a song that was traditionally done in blackface but they dont actually have anyone in blackface.
Mostly people have an issue with the song.
That’s my bad, I got them confused
Can you watch the "8 BIT CHRISTMAS" movie?
It's from the studio that brought us "ELF"
It's a Story that takes place in the 80s
This movie is Criminally Underrated and It has Neil Patrick Harris in it
A hilarious Christmas story involving guns is called "Six to eight black men" by David Sedaris. It's SO good.
Damn it. Rewatching this and had the exact same thought I did last year when you mentioned Americans and guns. XD
8:13 "Smmeagoool". You just made my day! 🤣
He’s selfish and learns to be selfless, that’s the moral of the story
You are so pretty! You look like Anya Taylor Joy.
Thanks for the review of "Klaus", I watched it yesterday for the first time, and it's now one of my favourite films ever.
You might wanna check out the review of White Noise Reacts, it was a really cool review as well because they talk a lot about the type of unique animation of this movie.
Have a Happy Yule you guys! ⭐⭐⭐
I loved this movie. One of my most favorite Christmas movies. Not gonna say anything about your reactions though.
great movie
The ending of this movie breaks me everytime.
I’m at 116,467 unread emails and counting…
You brought this up, so, do you really not know how many kids a normal family had before birth control was invented? Usually about 6. And those were the kids that survived.
My mom watched this movie for the first time today. She fell asleep half way through it because she has been very tired and stressed, so it's ok, but what she has seen so far has made her like it. She doesn't hate it, which is good because after the Mary Poppins' Returns time mix up incident, she no longer trusts my choice of movies and she's one of those people who says I can choose what we watch and then complains about how we always have to watch what I want and never what she wants even though I ask if she has anything in mind. The last thing she remembers before falling asleep was Klaus helping Jesper make Margu's present, so we'll be watching it from that point tomorrow, which is perfect because Margu getting her present is my favorite part.
Literally just watched this last night omg
8:13 😆
this is such a good movie.
I loved this movie so much
the best Christmas movie
to be fair, it WAS a scheme to begin with.
There's a great dark Christmas film called Rare Exports, I think you'd love it!
Thank you for the gift today of watching Klaus with you. I love this movie.
Here's the Rare Exports trailer:
