@@aflowerthatcannotbebloomed I completely agree with you in thinking that Julie's Mary Poppins was mostly cold, aloof and dismissive. I have major nostalgia for the original Mary Poppins and so I can't help but be fond of it, but there is definitely a certain warmth missing from the character because of how Julie played her/the screenwriters chose to depict her. I'm not sold on Emily Blunt being the perfect replacement the way that so many others seem to feel but one thing I did appreciate about her portrayal was her winking playfulness and tendency to nurture and comfort as opposed to being so quick to get stern with the children. There were times in the original movie where it seemed as though Julie's Mary Poppins didn't even like the kids but that wasn't an issue this time around.

I put the personality change down to what the children needed. Jane and Micheal were rowdy, but lacked love and attention. So she's kind but firm. The new three need to learn to have fun again in a tough time, but are still a little snooty. So she pulls them into line, only to push them towards being children again. It's what they need. I've only seen part of the movie though, so obviously I'm not perfect in judgement.

CMHolden, I like your observation on the personality change. IMO, after watching it in the theatre, I believe it's still very much what P.L Travers said to Walt when making the first film. "You think she's here to save the children?" I think it is still apparent that her personality is to reflect what each father has forgotten and to help him find it in his children. Micheal and Jane wanted (and needed) firm but kind, not just from their nanny but, indeed their father, George. As a result, they caused a fuss to be noticed. George was not one for liking change. Mary (and Bert) were there to help George realise the precious time he was missing out on, like childhood, as the time period, (just prior to WW1) was soon to be a time of rapid change. In the case of Michael, he and his children, have gone through a sudden rapid change, with the bereavement of their wife/mother, while being faced with the struggles of the Great Depression. As a result, they face uncertainty and ponder many questions. Here, Mary and Jack help Michael to remember what it was like to be a child, by helping him realise that children find the wonder in life and that living in the present can help things look more clear. (Sorry for any spoilers)

Honestly, her being a Time Lord would explain her change in personality from the first movie to this one. Because when a Time Lord regenerates their new regeneration tends to have a slightly different personality from their last one. So she could’ve just regenerated at some point in between the 20 years after she left the Banks children at the end of the first film.

True but I didn't feel like her personality changed very much. She showed a little more vulnerability in the new one by having moments of feeling a little more sad or acting a little more haughty. But she was still playful and witty and kind while still being stern. And of course, she still knew that she knew best. I felt like she acted very much the same and the only differences were due to the situation she was dealing with lol

Mary Poppins still being young isn't just a consciously overlooked goof, and here's why: I own a 40th-Anniversary edition of the 1964 film's soundtrack, which includes bonus tracks of story meetings between P.L. Travers, the Sherman Brothers, and director Don DiGradi. In an interesting sound bite Travers mentions wanting to include a "clue" where "Mr. Banks half-guesses the truth that Mary Poppins had once been his nanny [as well]." Since Mr. Banks portrayed by David Tomlinson was in his mid-forties in that film's 1910 continuity, he probably would've been a child in the late 1870s, before Julie Andrews' Mary Poppins had been born (if she was supposed to age). Therefore, it's authorially canonical that Mary Poppins never gets older (or at least, does very slowly). She's really more of a guardian angel than a person.

Or she is a Time Lady, they age much slower than humans, if she has a TARDIS she can travel through time and space. The Doctir litteraly lives on a cloud with his TARDIS for like a year in one episode. A fuly functunal TARDIS can be hidden in plain sight. The bigger on the inside (her bag) is Time Lord technology. I love this theory more because in that case she chooses to spend her knowledge and longer life helping humans on an to her alien planet.

I think the snowglobe is not an error. It is more another nod to the Books. In the original Books Mary always left a present for the children. And the Snow Globe may be one of these, that Mary maybe left them at a later visit somewhere between the two movies. It wouldn't surprise me, because in the attic you can make out "props" from other Stories out of the books. For example the Telescope from "Merry Go Round" or the magic Compass from "Bad Tuesday". Also in one Scene Jane is clearly wearing the necklace with the little lark on it, that mary left her.

Of course, I saw "Saving Mr. Banks" five years ago, so I had some idea what Mary was really supposed to be like, and Emily had read the Travers books before doing this, so she also knew. Nevertheless, it was magical and fantastical and a couple of hours of escape from the depressing headlines of real life.

My dad is 92 and cannot move or dance like that!!! 2) The Meryl Streep scene did NOT belong in this film. It seemed like it belonged in a Harry Potter-esque hybrid musical...but did NOTHING to advance the story along in Mary Poppins Returns. 3) I particularly enjoyed 3 numbers, and thought they mirrored the Sherman brothers quite well: Trip A Little Light Fantastic, A Cover Is Not The Book, and There's Nowhere To Go But Up. 4) The animation scene was well done, and loved that it came earlier in this film. It wasn't "exact", but it DID match the elements of the first movie. I thought it melded well between the illustration on the bowl in Returns and the chalk painting from the first film.

I like the idea that "Mary Poppins" appears in the way that YOU need her to be when she comes to you. So she looks different every time. She's magic and she's the perfect version of the nanny that YOU need when she comes to you. When she came the first time, she looked and acted the way that the Banks children needed or wanted her to look/act. The next time she came, the Banks children were older and had children of their own. Maybe they remembered her differently (as we all do when we get older and try to remember something from childhood...we do not get it exactly right). Or maybe the new Banks children are the ones whose imaginations caused her to look and act the way she did. When she comes back in the future, she could be played by another actress and be totally different. There could be Mary Poppins-es all around the world like how they had that at the London Olympics where a whole bunch of them in all different ethnic backgrounds came down from the sky with umbrellas to fight the Voldemort puppet. I liked that imagery and it made me imagine the powers of Good dispatching these "Mary Poppins" angels to fight the forces of Evil all over. Every child should be able to summon the perfect Mary Poppins for that child when they need her.

It's not only nostalgia. I grew up in the early 90's and even then I found movies from decades ago much more magical than the stuff that was current back then. Since I was a child, there was no nostalgia involved in that feeling, but I still prefered "Mary Poppins" a thousand times over all the 80's and 90's movies. The ending of the original "Mary Poppins" was perfect, on point and never asked for a sequel. I'm not sure why I'm so resentful against all these Disney sequels and life action remakes that are currently flooding the cinemas.. it feels like they took away the uniquness of the original movie. Suddenly there are two Mary Poppins', two Lion kings etc etc. It's a shame they seem to be out of new ideas. Imagine in the old days Disney would just have remade "Snow white" and "Pinocchio" over and over again... there wouldn't be any "Mary Poppins" or all the other gems.

The one thing that did disappoint was the dancing--it was not as...elaborate as the dancing in the first film. I noticed this especially in the lamplighter number, "Trip a Little Light Fantastic," which was fun, but the dancing paled next to "Step in Time." I agree with those who say it will grow on people.

PL Travers did not like the fact Bert was the one who gave the speech to Mr Banks which saved the family and felt it stole the entire purpose for Mary Poppins coming into the story in the first place. Additionally she was vehemently opposed to the animation sequence. There were parts which she felt the movie was a bit too saccharine and sentimental yet she did love the melancholy nature of "Feed the Birds" and the upbeat nature of the closing number "Lets Go Fly a Kite." Miss Travers was under negotiations with Disney to make a sequel before her death and her estate obviously agreed. The Credits state the original version is solely owned by Disney once it was released and was not approved by P.L. Travers. Which is probably a stipulation for Disney being allowed to make additional movies with this I.P.

I totally agree with you. To be honest I was scared that Disney would screw it up. When they announced a return movie I was afraid about that. But when I saw it few days ago I was already on the top of my chair when I found out they even remained true to the 60’s cinematic music. And even had a credits roll before the start of the movie. Just like back in the days. I think the animated scene was adult and childish enough to have both enjoy it. Sure the lyrics were a bit adult, but the fun graphics with the interaction of the actors is surely fun for kids too. So I felt it was a good balance. For me, this movie is among the classics. A modern classic. Emily is a real good Mary Poppins. I loved all the songs too. Even tho I felt turning turtle was a bit to much exaggeration. Overall my favorite movie this year.

I saw that. I think a big hint that they were doing it for dramatic affect was when she said "Really, you'd think they'd never done this before". If however they really were at risk, it confirms what I thought about the first Mary Poppins too, as in waiting for the last minute to fix someone or something that is in danger with her powers. When I rewatched Mary Poppins a few years ago, I realized she acts very full of herself and wasn't a very nice person over all. I hope the line means that she knew they would all be okay, otherwise she's kinda narcissistic and even sociopathic to let them risk their lives when she could of easily done all that herself.

I think the film shares more creative DNA with Bedknobs and Broomsticks than Mary Poppins, especially the animated sequences. - The Trip A Little Light Fantastic number was okay until you added BMX bicycles. - None of the songs had the impact of Feed the Birds from the original film. - While I appreciate Blunt trying for an original performance, it was such a jarring difference from soft to knife-sharp that it tough to watch. Some might appreciate it. I'm not among them, sadly. - The music hall performance was gratuitous, designed to shoehorn in Lin-Manuel Miranda's patter virtuosity without advancing the plot. In fact, the actual plot moment in that sequence came after the musical number, and Mary was completely absent.In the end, it -literally- drops into a plot hole. I wanted to like it more than I did. I was disappointed.

This film must win loads of awards because it was amazing and really deserves a lot of credit!!🎩🌂. And now I come to talk about the wonderful songs in this film. Basically everyone thought that now way can you top the songs from the original Mary Poppins film but obviously you can because this film just did!!🥇🏆🎖🏅. Songs like “spoonful of sugar & supercalifragalisticexpialadotious” were amazing in the original film but songs like “a cover is not the book & can you imagine that” were even better than the original songs!!🎤🎼. The instrumental parts in the film were also amazing and breathtaking!!🎷🎺🎻🎹🎬🎤🎧. The acting and singing and dancing in this visually stunning movie musical was also practical perfect in every way. Such a talented cast and crew in the movie. The ‘trip a little light fantastic’ musical number was outstanding because there was so much going on in the number and so many actors and dancers being so amazing!! 🤩. The animation in the film is exceptionally amazing. I think I’m my opinion the animation in the new film is much better thank the old film. Mainly my reason for that is well firstly obviously with modern day technology it looks better but secondly the story line in the animation is much better thank the original Mary Poppins film. I loved the whole aspect of the royal Dolton bowl and how they go to fix the carriage and the musical number in the animated world is amazing!! There are so many amazing things from Mary Poppins returns that I haven’t mentioned due to spoiler alert 🚨 and stuff but all I will say is that if you haven’t seen this film then you need to see it NOW!!😀. I love this film now so much and I can’t wait till the dvd is released in the spring of 2019 so that I can purchase it and watch the amazing film again!!🌂🎩🎬🎤🎥🎹🔥⭐️

This film had a lot of problems. The songs were not very memorable unfortunately, I can't remember one the same way I do as with the original. Lin Manuel Miranda has way too much screen time and took away the focus from the titular character. Meryl Streep's character feels too forced in trying to recreate the magic of Uncle Albert. The vaudeville song was horrendous, just doesn't fit at all with the vibe of the movie, and they put in that one song that's sung at breakneck speed; the point of Mary Poppins was always to make the songs memorable, not intensely incomprehensible, feels like they were harkening back to Supercalifragistic with the ridiculousnous of it but you could catch the words with that one and everyone was singing it by the end. I don't like how the animated scenes from the bowl had villains, why would animated characters have any ill-intent - felt very misplaced. I also didn't like how they ruined Michael's charitable act in the first one where he wanted to give his tuppence to the bird lady, and it turns out his father did actually put it into the bank - that just negates the changes that Mr. Banks went through at the end of the first movie. Perhaps Blunt was trying to play Mary Poppins closer to the novel but her character felt charmless at times; there wasn't enough magic in here and not enough unbelievable... I don't think they did a poor job on the casting here but it just feels like too much of her screen time was given to the lamplighter.

Not aging Mary Poppins was a weird choice as it’s never mentioned in the books and P.L. Travers approved Julie Andrews returning for the sequel Disney was planning in the 80’s (except she hated the plot), so if Mary Poppins wasn’t meant to age she wouldn’t have approved her returning. But it’s still a choice that makes sense and I think that’s why they did it, to keep that magical, unexplained quality.

I didn’t like some of the inconsistencies in her character. Some of the singing parts were a bit risqué (like growling) and out of character.

They've never really explained in the movies who Mary Poppins is I don't know about the books I've never read them but she just shows up when the winds in the right direction then leaves when her job is done! she clearly has an interest in the welfare of the banks family but it would be interesting to know how she encountered other people who also know her throughout the story,

Of course MP was/is magic, that explains the eternally youthful appearance. But having a cousin in MPR throws that off a bit. Are they both time lords? Also, whose uncle exactly loves to laugh in the original? Is it MP's or Bert's? If Mary's, is he a timelord also? Could explain his own magical activity. Finally, I always thought Bert may be a mystical creature/"timelord" like MP since he seems almost her parallel in the first film. Their friendship and apparently budding romance, his fluency in the magical worlds she creates, his innumerable talents, his closeness with the laughing uncle, etc. However maybe this could also be explained that, he was also a prococious child visited by MP many years ago! That would explain his childlike demeanor and MP's intimate knowledge of him. Could make for an interesting prequel/origin story! Anyway, thanks for the vid, just some thoughts.

I can explain the family stuff - Mary Poppins has a lot of relatives in the books, who may or may not share her immortality - it's never really made clear. Mary Poppins herself definitely has some kind of extended lifespan and obviously has magical powers, and her relatives at least have some magical aspects to their characters. So yes, Uncle Albert is Mary Poppins' uncle. And in the part of the second book where Meryl Streep's scene is derived from, her cousin Arthur Turvy is the one who has the upside-down "powers" (though I'm pretty sure Meryl Streep's character is actually inspired by his wife, who's called Topsy). Plus, in the books you also find out that one of her cousins on her mother's side is a snake, and that said mother was friends with the cow who jumped over the moon. So basically, Mary Poppins comes from some kind of magic family, but she seems to be the all-powerful one for unknown reasons. I don't know how helpful that was but I hope I explained some of the stuff you were thinking about :D

I actually think admiral boom was right in his time keeping all along. Towards the end of the film when they're climbing up Big Ben, Jack slips (or something like that) and Mary says something along the lines of "oh really, you'd think they'd never done this before" I do think Mary had a part to play in the Admirals time keeping. Just a thought, might be wrong. Probably am tbh

I don't usually respond to such comments but I just want to point out that in big productions such as this film, props and costumes are two different departments and there's no way one person would work on three different pieces like these. In fact, on big prods, there'll be different persons in charge of making, oroutsourcing set props, wearable props, action props, hats, clothes, etc...

The Clothes and colours are amazing. The Dance scenes are ok. I enjoyed the last 30 minutes of the Movie and loved the Baloon scene. Emily Blunt acts too serious, snooty and too sarcastic. Realy missed the warm smile and voice of Miss Julie Andrews and the sweet Melodies of the Original. The new Soundtrack hasn't got one peace of music that comes close to the iconic songs of Mary Poppins. Mayby they should have hired David Foster as a composer. As a whole the music isn’t as memorable as the original. The BMX didn’t fit. Emily’s short hair cut in the porcelain bowl sequence was to vulgar and erotic. Why does She has to move and look like in a Cabaret Show? I say this as a Choreographer. It's a Kids Movie. The Choreographer must have been out of his mind. Dick van Dike's apearance was absolutely incredible. I'm still wondering why Julie Andrews didn't apear as Mary Poppins.

Dear Georgee, you warmed my heart and pronounced the same words we had exchanged with my already adult son. Thank you! I'd like to add that it's a pity that such a talented actress like E. Blunt couldn't become a Perfect Nanny for kids.

This is the first post (reading from the top) to mention the quality or lack of quality in the music. The best song in the sequel was barely better and probably not as good as the worst song in the original. The music really dropped the ball here and was one of the worst things about the sequel.

Mary Poppins did pack the snow-globe, which had a black base. The one Michael found in the attic in the sequel, does not have a black base, and is therefore not the same one. Michael and Jane most likely bought one after Mary's departure, to remember their experience with her.

What changes? This is a completely different story; chosen from those written, together with dozens of other Mary Poppins stories, by the same authoress, almost a century ago. This IS Mary Poppins par excellence! I suggest to read, instead of watch: Very refreshing!

Three Railway Engines of Time I like both theories, but agreed. It also explains the aging, as the more powerful you are, the slower you age. Mary Poppins would be extremely powerful because she can do complicated, wandless, non-verbal magic with ease.

I noticed a another one. In Marry Poppins Returns, the old banker comes old and saves the day. How lovely and creepy. For in the original movie, in the kite scene. The board of directors of the bank, gave Mr. Banks his job bank, saying, "Father died laughing so hard." Which makes the old banker a character that comes back from the dead. Like I mentioned creepy.
