Encanto

 

I watched more than half of Encanto recently (I'm going to finish it tomorrow) and it is AMAZING! There are a bunch of jokes, like when all the kids are getting so tense and Mirabel grabs a mug of coffee from one of them and says, "and that's why coffee's for grownups!" 

Post any other things you like about Encanto here!

I love every moment of What Else Can I Do.  It's definitely my favorite song from the movie.

Whenever one of my friends was like, "Ah. This is not perfect!" I would go "It's not symmetrical or perfect but it's beautiful, and it's YOURS!"Smile

YAY it's my favorite too and I think it's heavily underappreciated. 

What could I do if I just knew it didn't need to be perfect? It just needed to be! And they let me be!

I watched it at my neighbors house (We don't have Disney+) in January. It is amazing! I like Surface Pressure, We don't talk about Bruno, and What else can I do. Whenever my class heres we don;t talk about Bruno we sing along.

My favorites are "All of Me" and "Dos Oruguitas"/"Two Oruguitas". I got the following lyrics online:

All of me 

 

Look at this home, we need a new foundation
It may seem hopeless but we'll get by just fine
Look at this family, a glowing constellation
So full of stars and everybody wants to shine
But the stars don't shine, they burn
And the constellations shift
I think it's time you learn
You're more than just your gift
And I'm sorry I held on too tight
Just so afraid I'd lose you too
The miracle is not some magic that you've got
The miracle is you, not some gift, just you
The miracle is you
All of you, all of you
Okay, so we gonna talk about Bruno? (That's Bruno)
Yeah, there's a lot to say about Bruno
I'll start, okay
Pepa, I'm sorry 'bout your wedding, didn't mean to be upsetting
That wasn't a prophecy, I could just see you were sweating
And I wanted you to know that your bro loves you so
Let it in, let it out, let it rain, let it snow, let it go
That's what I'm always saying, bro
Got a lotta 'pologies I got to say
(Hey, we're just happy that you're here, okay?) Uh, But
Come into the light, the triplets all reunite
And no matter what happens we're gonna find our way
Yo, I knew he never left, I heard him every day
What's that sound? (Oh, oh)
I think it's everyone in town
Hey
Lay down your load (lay down your load)
We are only down the road (we are only down the road)
We have no gifts, but we are many
And we'll do anything for you
It's a dream when we work as a team (all of you, all of you)
You're so strong
Yeah, but sometimes I cry (all of you, all of you)
So do I
I may not be as strong but I'm getting wiser
Yeah, I need sunlight and fertilizer
Come on, let's plant something new and watch it fly
Straight up to the sky, let's go
The stars don't shine, they burn
The constellations glow
The seasons change in turn
Would you watch our little girl go?
She takes after you
Oh
Hey Mariano, why so blue?
I just have so much love inside
You know, I've got this cousin too
Have you met Dolores?
Okay, I'll take it from here, goodbye
You talk so loud
You take care of your mother and you make her proud
You write your own poetry every night when you go to sleep
And I'm seizing the moment, so would you wake up and notice me?
Dolores, I see you (and I hear you)
Yes (all of you, all of you)
Let's get married (slow down)
All of you, all of you
Home sweet home
I like the new foundation
It isn't perfect
Neither are we (that's true)
Just one more thing
Before the celebration (what?)
We need a doorknob
We made this one for you
We see how bright you burn
We see how brave you've been
Now, see yourself in turn
You're the real gift, kid, let us in
Open your eyes
Abre los ojos
What do you see?
I see me 

All of me 

 

 

Two Oruguitas

Two oruguitas
In love and yearning
Spend every evening
And morning learning
To hold each other
Their hunger burning
To navigate a world
That turns, and never stops turning
Together in this world
That turns, and never stops turning
Two oruguitas
Against the weather
The wind grows colder
But they're together
They hold each other
No way of knowing
They're all they have for shelter
And something inside them is growing
They long to stay together
But something inside them is growing
Ay, oruguitas
Don't you hold on too tight
Both of you know
It's your time to grow
To fall apart, to reunite
Wonders await you
Just on the other side
Trust they'll be there
And start to prepare
The way for tomorrow
Ay, oruguitas
Don't you hold on too tight
Both of you know
It's your time to grow
To fall apart, to reunite
Wonders await you
Just on the other side
Trust they'll be there
Start to prepare
The way for tomorrow
Two oruguitas
Cocooned and waiting
Each in their own world
Anticipating
What happens after
The rearranging?
And so afraid of change
In a world that never stops changing
So let the walls come down
The world will never stop changing
(Never stop changing)
(Never stop changing)
(Never stop changing)
Ay, mariposas
Don't you hold on too tight
Both of you know
It's your time to go
To fly apart, to reunite
Wonders surround you
Just let the walls come down
Don't look behind you
Fly till you find
Your way toward tomorrow
Ay, mariposas
Don't you hold on too tight
Both of you know
It's your time to go
To fly apart, to reunite
Wonders surround you
Just let the walls come down
Don't look behind you
Fly till you find
Your way toward tomorrow
Ay, mariposas
Don't you hold on too tight
Both of you know
It's your time to go
To fly apart, to reunite
Wonders surround you
Just let the walls come down
Don't look behind you
Fly till you find
Your way toward tomorrow

 

 

I also like "Waiting on a miracle", "The family Madrigal", and "We don't talk about Bruno". Oh, has anyone seen the "Meet the Madrigals" extra? The end is really funny...

Seven foot frame, rats along his back, when he calls your name it all fades to black, yeah he sees your dreams, feasts on your screams...... 

 

Really funny joke: After the house breaks down, Camilo (the shapeshifter) says: "The house is broken". The others say something like, "Stop it", and Camilo responds, "What? I'm can't say the house is broken?"

Fun fact: "oruguitas" means caterpillars!

Also, there was that one section from "Waiting on a Miracle" that hit super hard TvT. Basically all the songs are really catchy too, it's great~

Hi! I haven't seen Encanto, and I told one of my friends that and she literally freaked out! She was like you HAVE to see it, so I'm going over to her house to watch it next weekend. Everyone at my school sings the songs randomly and spontaneously, so I already know some of them. Surface Pressure is so stuck in my head right now.
