The Polar Express - Seeing is believing

[Channel-ewdr]

"Blessed are those who believe without seeing."

Masterpiece of a movie

[ElectroDigitaI]

This is my favorite scene in the movie. I didn’t really get it as a kid, so I thought it was boring, but as I got older I realized how amazing this scene really is.

[TheStrikeofGod]

"One other thing...do you believe in ghosts?"
_shakes head_
"Interesting..."
I will always get chills there.

[kadenemerson]

This is one of many scenes in this movie that has so many meanings. My favorite Christmas movie ever

[masternoob]

“Better start believing in ghost stories, kid. You’re in one.”

[chicagogalaxy]

Idc how old I am, if this train exists, I’m definitely hopping on

[captaindemobeard]

I never understood why people find this movie creepy. The motion capture just makes them look more realistic to me.

[andredizon]

Still gotta think about how a hobo/drifter from the 30s or 40s managed to hop aboard the "POLEX" possibly whilst the train was doing a routine pickup, only to end up getting decapitated by the flat top tunnel

The man died and was pretty much Shanghai'd into service as an "Angel" to gaurd the kids on the train. I mean, how many times has he saved Hero Boy and his friends lives

[clevercactus]

The Hobo is humming "Good King Wenceslas" at the beginning. Wenceslas was only a duke, but was declared a king after death, just like how the hobo calls himself a king.

[cadebecker]

That moment when you realized he's an angel.

[persondoor]

“Seeing is believing”. But hero boy doesn’t believe in ghosts, and there is a ghost right in front of him.

[LOLWTF]

This whole movie is just so cozy. I'm a kid again every time I watch it.

0:20 - 0:34 Me whos been rejected by every girl when someone asks me for relationship advice

[mango]

This scene by far is the best in the entire movie.

[alxdomz]

Such a great scene with incredible music, from such an underrated film 👏

[paulvhs]

one thing I noticed: at 3:30, the soundtrack sounds similar to Pirates of the Caribbean: dead man’s chest and it’s spooking me out

[ninjabunnywholivesinsideaw]

Hobo ghost from the Polar Express: "Seeing is believing."

Judy the Elf from the Santa Clause: "Believing is seeing."

[Butterflywings]

The hobo... His attitude about Santa is how I honestly feel about religion and God in general now... I saw this movie when I was 13, back then I related to the little boy, but now I relate to the hobo... How life sure does change you.

[UvilleraMente]

The entire film the kid is trying to believe, he is losing his believe and everything in this scene takes it deep, as soon as the kid talks about Santa and wanting to believe u can see that the hobo snaps and knows the kid is losing hope, much more like a person losing life, and once it's gone it won't come back

[TJBoykin]

For y’all who didn’t know Tom Hanks did the voice of Santa, The Hobo, (originally the little boy but they changed it), the little boy’s father and the conductor
