Thank you for this video. I really enjoyed it. I only recently read the book. I saw the movie when it was originally released in theaters. Also I saw the original cut multiple multiple times on HBO and renting it on VHS and now I own the DVD. So, I have a LOT of nostalgia for the theatrical version. I recently saw the extended cut of the movie. And while it does fill in the gaps of the story, I just don't like it as much. I like the book a lot. I never was much of a reader, but, I can now see why people like the second cut of the movie. For me, I kind of like that everything isn't so fleshed out in the original cut. You don't need all the information. I like that there is a little mystery about some of these characters. The main point of the story is Stay Gold. So I don't really need all the other details. I think the original cut tugs at your heart strings a little more the way it was edited and put together.

I don’t know if this movie is good or bad: it’s noteworthy I guess You could argue that it’s a movie about coping: I was a child when the events occurred and it was indeed hard to process. For me personally, the whole circumstance didn’t feel real to me. I admit I didn’t know anyone who died during the bombing but I suppose it’s not too far fetched to believe that I wouldn’t have a similar reaction to the kid in the movie As an audience member of this film I want to say it makes sense to a degree but it really doesn’t feel like it was necessary or in the best taste. It’s a very conflicted reaction, obviously Lindsey Ellis said its not good but there’s potentially “a good movie buried in there” which makes the most sense

Yes! I got the impression of Only Murders in the Building too; but better. More wholesome. The audiobook is fantastic. Got it through my library. Well worth the wait!

📚 Just finished reading "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton! 🌟 This classic novel dives deep into the struggles of the Greasers and Socs, highlighting the harsh realities of class conflict and the search for identity. 🤜🤛 With unforgettable characters and a powerful message, it’s a must-read for anyone who loves a compelling story. ✨ If you haven’t picked it up yet, I highly recommend it! #TheOutsiders #BookReview #MustRead #S.E.Hinton

Thanks!, I had only seen the movie until recently when I got my hands on the Marvel graphic novel. I started reading about the Kalidahs and the field mice and I was thinking I don't remember that from the movie, but when it got to the story about the flying Monkeys I was like wow, that's not how it was all!

The music in the new version is so off that it takes you away from the drama and intensity. It’s pretty distracting, they should have kept the original music.

I want to read the book. I did not like the bouncing back and forth throughout decades. It was hard to feel connected to these characters. Also the whole DL woke shit got on my nerves. Every person Kate was attracted to was a person of color? But married a white dude? And Her brother and daughter gay? which I know is NOT in the books! This stuff has got to stop. Why do authors allow their stories to be ruined by woke PC garbage? And it is insulting to watch I for one know what your doing it's stupid.

A very, very comprehensive review - thank you. I saw the film and read the book and then did both again. It's one of my favourite films ever (and I'm 76 years old!). The casting for the film is near perfection and the book frequently brings a smile, despite the sometimes-dark subject matter.

I feel like Harvey is almost too young for Linus, he has such a baby face. Lee Pace is on point though. I like Brenden Fraser for Linus. He's a little older than Linus is supposed to be, but I think he could pull it off.

This was really good, thank you. Did you know that back in the late 80's i in England the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) made a tv series of 4 out of the 7 Narnia books. They are on KZbin starting with The LTWATW. The special effects are simple but the music is great and i believe that adaptation is truer to the book. 😊

I never saw the Full novel movie but I saw the theatrical version, but they both are good, but I didn't care that the theatrical version was missing some parts. So both are like the same, just the full novel movie is longer.

Awesome video 🙂 back in 2020 when this came out... my gf (at the time) and her kids (2girls 7+10) saw the tailer for this movie and wanted to see it.. so we all watched it.. they enjoyed it.. they enjoyed the talking mice as kids do... so the next day I recommended we watch the 90s original... so we did.... the kids absolutely loved it.. they we're terrified of witches especially the grand high witch.. they were literally on the edge of their seats lol... and afterwards said that they loved the 90s more than the new one and wanted to watch it again!.. so it just goes to show... new, with questionable cgi doesn't automatically mean its going to be better.... what made the original scary is how grounded and real it felt... not to mention practical effects will always beat cgi... I known they're currently remaking the 90s arachnophobia..amazing movie! But I have a feeling the remake is going to have the same outcome as this...

I read the book before I saw the movie. I prefer the rescue in the book because Beck is the EVA specialist and it's more professional to have him do it. My copy of the book doesn't have the ending you described with the space hotel, etc. I do think that Mark working for NASA is more realistic. Between the medical studies of Mark and the resources spent rescuing him they won't let him go any sooner than they have to.

Off-topic, I know...but who would you cast for a Legends & Lattes film adaptation? Obviously, Thimble's role would need to be CG/Motion Capture like Andy Serkis' roles

@SilverScribe85 So, I’ve just finished reading Legends & Lattes, and my initial thoughts on casting were actors in their 30s-40s+ (I think mostly because I tend to think of the actors I’m most familiar with), but I think these definitely need to be younger people. So for Viv, I could see Hunter Schafer playing the role (with some SFX/VFX, obvs 😅). I think Amandla Stenberg cool pull of a good Tandri.
