so I went to watch Coco at my college tonight and here were some highlights
everyone was in awe over Imelda, like seriously i think heard someone behind me whisper “oh my god she looks like she could kick my ass but she’s BEAUTIFUL”
everyone fucking laughed when Ernesto got destroyed by the bell which I was very happy about
someone yelled “thAT’S LIKE MY GRANDMA!!!!!!!” when Abuelita was piling Miguel’s plate full of tamales
Abel getting owned by a shoe not once but TWICE got some isolated chuckles
enthusiastic cheers of LA CHANCLA when Abuelita was smacking the mariachi with it
no one laughed over Mama Coco forgetting things which honestly was such a huge relief, like please don’t laugh???? over memory loss????
when the pic was first revealed people were like BOI HOW’S HE GONNA FIND HIS GREAT GREAT GRANDPA IF HE’S DEAD
“THAT’S GRAVEROBBIGN SON” “HOE DON’T DO IT”
“i wish i could strum a guitar and die instantly too”
someone yelled WIFE when tia rosita showed up and honestly same
they found the vitamins joke VERY entertaining
laughing over hector trying to get across the bridge “OH NO HE’S ANGERY”
“we are NOT visiting your EX wife’s ofrendas for dia de los muertos” “TELL ‘EM GIRL”
[as imelda destroys the custom agent’s computer] “oh my god she’s such a stereotypical old lady”
“THIS KID GOT FUCKING OWNED BY A PILE OF PAPER”
really enjoying Hector’s excuses to get over the bridge and the gag with his arm popping off
also everyone was in awe over Pepita as well they should be
laughing at “muy guapo eh?” even though half of them didn’t know what it meant because CONTEXT CLUES
someone loudly going “nO” when Frida suggests that everything be on fire
being very concerned over Chicharron (”what’s happening” “why is he glowing” “OH NO HE TURNED INTO A GLOWSTICK” “the dead can….die????”)
laughing over the talent show in general (”SKRILLEX SKELETON OH MY GOD”)
someone yelling MAKE UP at the screen when Miguel and Hector were fighting
people going “aww” in the audience when Imelda revealed that she used to love music until Hector left, it was really quiet when Miguel was throwing the argument about how family is supposed to support you at her
being really excited over Ernesto saving him from the pool and laughing when Miguel walked into it (”HE GOT DISTRACTED OH NO”)
a few people saw the Disney villain lighting on Ernesto and instantly began to mutter amongst themselves
“those were my songs you took! MY songs that made you famous!” [CUE EXTREMELY SHOCKED GASPS]
cue them being even more shook when Miguel was talking about the toast in the movie, I swear these people connected the dots within like five minutes even before Hector mentioned that he was poisoned
“HE POISONED HIM????” “WHAT THE FUCK DISNEY THAT’S NOT OKAY” “WE WAS ROOTIN’ FOR ‘CHU BITCH”
SHOOK INTENSIFIES WHEN MIGUEL’S THROWN IN THE CENOTE
“HECTOR” “HECTOR NO” “HE’S TURNIN INTO A GLOWSTICK TOO” “HEEEEEEEECTOR”
“my coco” [ANOTHER ROUND OF GASPS]
“HE WAS THE GRANDPA?????” “i’m mad IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE” “OH MY GOD HOW DID WE NOT NOTICE THIS”
some sniffles when Hector was playing Remember Me
everyone cheering when they did their gritos together
everyone going “aww” again when Imelda and Hector were talking
people going NUTS over frida’s preshow (”MONKEY” “the papaya DID get lit on fire”)
someone going GET HIM when Imelda whacks Ernesto with her shoe
“sing!” “SHE HAS ANXIETY DON’T FORCE HER”
“oh my god this woman is a QUEEN”
a loud “GET REKT” when Imelda stomps on Ernesto’s foot
“oh my god they’re in love” “IT’S SO CUTE”
“ernesto NOOOOOOO” “ERNESTO” “BITCH”
“WHAT HE JUST YEETS HIM OFF THE EDGE”
everybody cheering when Miguel is rescued and ernesto is flung out
“that guy coming in late is me at every sporting event”
shocked gasps of concern when Hector is fading (”IS HE GONNA SEE HIS DAUGHTER AGAIN?????” “HECTOR” “HECTORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR”)
“DON’T FORGET HIM COCO” “DON’T DO IT” “THIS IS SO SAD WTF”
actual legitimate cheering when it’s discovered that coco kept a piece of hector’s photo
ROAR OF LAUGHTER AT THE “FORGET YOU” SIGN
“the grandma DIED?????” “NOOOOOOOOO”
everyone fucking weeping over Hector being able to cross the bridge again
also there were little guitars that you could write your favorite family traditions on
