SURPRISE! Cinebinge reached out about doing a collab reaction with Simone and I, and YES YES!! It was so fun to change things up and Simone is beyond lovely. We watched Hachi, and SHEESH KA BOB I was not ready for this. I don't know if a ton of you have seen this, so I won't give too much away but Richard Gere has never been more handsome than when loving on that puppers!

[Full Reaction] Hatchi: A Dog's Tale (2009)

Comments

I don’t have this movie in my arsenal, but I’ll get it because I love both channels. I watched the intro and this looks like fun - I’m all for it! It’s a crossover moment like when someone from The Practice visits Grey’s. Archie Bunker meets The Jeffersons or Phoebe visiting her sister, Ursula? Anyway, it’s cool!

Cassie, the wife was the controlling mother in The Notebook

As someone who saw a news show piece with the real Hatchi's story years ago, my first thought was "I hope they brought enough tissues". Hell, that news piece I saw was enough to make me shed a few tears.

Ok, you got me. I had never heard of this movie or Hachiko's story, so I was not expecting this and went in not knowing how devastated I would be by the end of this reaction. Thank you and Simone.

Ok thanks a lot I cried my ass off!! I thought my neighbours were going to see if I was ok. I couldn't even look at Simone without loosing it. I can't even think about it with out starting to cry. Dam it these movies kill me. It reminded me of the movie "Challenge to Lassie"(1941) based on the true story book "Greyfriars Bobby". About a Dog who would not leave his Owners grave after he died. I would like to recommend my favorite dog movie "The Journey of Natty Gann"(1985). Jed always for the win!

This collab was a pleasant surprise. I don't think I've heard about the movie before, but after half an hour when Hachi started waiting for him at the train station, I remembered hearing the story somewhere. Even knowing and being prepared for how it would end, with both Cassie and Simone sobbing, even I needed a tissue. 😭 This story made me remember "our" cat from during my high school years. She was a stray kitten who showed up in the garden one afternoon meowing and didn't want to leave. Eventually my dad gave her some food and water and after that she started returning daily to our house, but on workdays she showed up only at the same time my dad pulled over with the car. Not a moment sooner. Then she only left after she has been fed and petted. She did remain a stray though living in the neighborhood. Also, not sure why, but your talk about animals made me remember a documentary I loved as a child and watched over and over again: Animals Are Beautiful People (1974). If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it. One of the best nature documentaries I've ever seen. Cassie, I hope you are planning some comedies or at least fewer heartbreaking stories for April, because after TLOU and this I'm craving for something positive and uplifting. 😀

Loved this reaction!! Can't wait for you two to pair up again.

If you have not seen it before, I would love you both to react to Message in a Bottle.

Togo is another movie about a dog that is also awesome. Also it based on a true story.

"Hachi: A Dog's Tale" is the reason my wife won't watch animal movies anymore! I had to promise her the dog was alive at the end of "A Dog's Purpose" to get her to watch that film 😇... anything more would be a spoiler. Cassie you may enjoy "A Dog's Purpose" (and the sequel "A Dog's Journey"). [BTW just joined Patreon just because Cassie's YouTube videos were so great, I had to support this!]

I didn't know this story until I went to Tokyo. Hachiko's statue is a popular meeting spot and people leave food and small gifts at the feet of the statue. I was always curious about what Shibuya Station was like in Hachiko's time because now it is next to what is basically the Times Square of Tokyo. Look up Shibuya Crossing to get a sense of it. I am a big fan of Cinebinge, so I was really excited to see this collaboration. I really liked director Lasse Hallström's earlier movies, but hadn't seen this one and I am glad this was a good reason to finally see it. I look forward to more collaborations with other reactors and hopefully if you and Simone watch something again it won't be a five-Kleenex movie.

You did a great job with this. Two of my of my favorites from YouTube and Patreon. First time watching. My eyes are almost too sore to post. This movie is definitely hitting my dry eye challenge list.

Mark James

Another great dog movie is Dog.

Tonio

So I'm like I can't sleep. Well I'm going to watch this dog hachi like save the world or something. And then......tears...oof..nice team up.

I needed this in many ways. I lost my beloved little cat Bonnie one year ago and I am not ashamed to say I am not coping well despite my age.

Oh so many Lasse Halstrom movies that should be on everyones must watch list. He started off in the 70s making movies in his native Sweeden, and gained international attention with his award winning film My Life As a Dog. He exploded onto the Hollywood scene in the early 90s with What's Eating Gilbert Grape, and really took off in the 2000s with films like Cider House Rules, Chocolat, An Unfinished Life, Shipping News. And is still going strong with more recent movies like Salmon Fishing in the Yemen and The Hundred Foot Journey. Amazing filmmaker.
