The TERRIBLE Illumination Lorax Movie...

Remember when Illumination did Dr Seuss movies? And remember when it was still the mid-2010s. Oof. What a time. At the height of Illumination doing their aggrivating tropes, THIS movie got made. Taking the environmentally-friendly message of The Lorax, and collaborating him over to a Mazda SUV commercial. Because out of touch was profitable. So let's reminisce over ironically comedic times as we delve into some of Illumination Studio's worst, as this is The TERRIBLE Illumination Loarx Movie...

As much as I like that song, there’s a cut song called Biggering that’s even better. Not only is it better musically, but it’s much more faithful to the original book

[@Dorian_Scott]

@@awesomeplushproductions Wait, WHAT!?!? There's a scrapped song!? I didn't know about this.

[@JR-kx3jr]

It has nothing to do with dated source material. Ted’s story is entirely original to the movie. I don’t think he even has a name in the book. He’s just a kid who comes to ask the Once-ler about the Lorax, and that’s the extent of his role in the story.

[@Vaguer_Weevil]

Yeah I dunno where THAT came from, people seem to throw around "dated source material" and don't know what they even mean by it.

[@AmericaFuckYeah4]

Both Ted and Audrey are named after Dr. Seuss and his second wife.

[@DanGamingFan2846]

The biggest flaw in this movie, to me, is how overt and unsubtle the message is now. In the books and the 1972 short film, there was no O'Hare, and the Once-ler was kept faceless to represent that anyone could become him. Plus, The Once-ler didn't turn evil, per se. The short especially shows that Once-ler feels bad for the what his factory is doing to the animals, but at the same time, pointed out how just shutting down the factory would put hundreds of people out of a job and impact the economy. The message doesn't completely demonize industry but still shows the impact it can have. There is no clear solution for how to fix everything, and anyone can just as easily help or be part of the problem. This film takes a dump on that nuanced message and completely waters everything down to "environment good, industry bad" and then puts out that hypocritical Mazda commercial. You should watch the short for comparison, it's leagues better.

[@thischannelisdead9]

Exactly!! The book ended on a cliffhanger in which you didn't even know whether or not the kid decided to save the trees. The kid was also kept nameless and generic in appearance as a stand-in for us as an audience/reader. The whole thing was telling us to make up our own minds, but consider the consequences first. Not this linear narrative that the movie created.

[@MissCookieThief]

This is what people always miss about this story. The point is that there's no one correct answer, and every choice will have consequences. I think it's important for kids to have stories with nuance that encourage them to ponder things and come up with their own answers. And to acknowledge and accept the potential consequences of those answers. Watered down stories like don't engage audiences or encourage any sort of thinking.

[@ThatOneDogeYT]

There was a song that was gonna be in the movie, but was actually cut for How bad can I be, it’s called Biggering. It sounds 10 times better than How Bad Can I Be ever could dream to be. The song was cut for being too dark and disturbing.

[@Pixel-Planet]

I’m SO GLAD that someone else mentioned Biggering because I am OBSESSED with it!!!! (to the point where it was one of my top listened to songs last year) It’s such a fantastic piece of music and it’s such a shame they cut it from the movie

[@lulufan100]

The movie would have been more in the spirit of the book if they kept it. I get why it was taken out because it doesn't fit the same tone as the other songs or the tone in general, they would have to make the ending more serious

[@bananabro1010]

It’s endlessly ironic to me that Biggering, a song criticizing corporate greed, was cut out because of corporate greed.

[@ProjectionProjects2.7182]

"The song was cut for being too dark and disturbing." And thats exactly why it should have been in the movie. The movie would have been a little bit more memorable if that song was there.

[@Muppet1107]

[@lasercraft32]

Wanna know the worst part? There was a cut song called "Biggering" that went really hard and was much more intense and thematically dark than "How Bad Can I Be?" but they had to replace it because the corporate higher-ups didn't like it. They replaced it with the more cheerful and sympathetic song instead. My best guess is that the song reminded them too much of themselves, and they didn't want to feel like the bad guys. :/

The lyrics to the better song that should have been im this movie The Once-Ler: At first i didn’t realize I needed all this stuff I had a little cottage And that cottage was enough A place where i could sit and knit A place where i could sell my thneeds But now i’ve had a little time To reassess my needs And i need a bigger office I need a bigger chair A bigger desk A bigger staff A bigger hat to wear! Because i’m biggering! (Yes, biggering!) I’m figuring on biggering! And biggering is triggering More biggering! The Lorax: Hey listen up meathead I’m a say this once and i’m not gonna repeat it Greed, see, it’s like a little pet, all right? And the more and more and more that you go and feed it The more hungry it’ll get But, you know, you really can’t blame greed Naw that’s stupid You see, it’s got a worm inside Oh yeah that’s right That’s one that always needs to feed And it is never satisfied You get it? But the more you try to find it The more it likes to hide Now listen That is a nasty little worm I like to call it pride! See now that’s why you’re biggering! Listen here idiot! And figuring on biggering! But that biggering’s just triggering more biggering! Got that? All right! The Once-Ler: There is a principle of nature that most every creature knows It’s called survival of the fittest, and this is how it goes The animal that wins has got to claw and bite and kick and punch The animal that doesn’t winds up someone else’s lunch A company’s an animal that’s trying to survive It’s struggling and fighting just to keep itself alive I must keep biggering! I’m figuring on biggering! Though biggering is triggering More biggering! I won’t stop biggering! I’m figuring on biggering! And biggering is triggering more biggering! With the customers all buying And the money multiplying And the pr people lying And the lawyers all denying Who cares if some things are dying? I don’t want to hear your crying This is all so gratifying

For those who don't know, there was another song in the place of "How bad can it be" and it is called "The biggering". It was not put in the movie however because it was too real and too anti consumerism. Check it out if you have not heard of it. It is amazing

It’s ironic how people were pissed the Lorax and the grinch weren’t faithful to the book itself and called the movie mediocre illumination movies but when the Super Mario Bros Movie was faithful to the games themselves people still called it another mediocre illumination movie Shows how people are ungrateful It seems like nobody took illumination movies seriously as a movie untill the Mario movie then they start criticizing it

People are too judgy though imo. I barely judge things because I only look at the positive things of movies meanwhile some people try to find flaws and bad things about the movie which will end up resulting in making them hate the movie without paying attention to the good things. I love the movie more than that old Lorax short animated animation mainly because of the quality jump and the story just being more extended out.

@comadoof184 Right, this movie would've been so good had they stuck to their original plot with Biggering involved. And also just focus on the Onceler's story more, and not so much on Ted.

The most infuriating part of this movie is that instead of "how bad can i be" we could've had "biggering" but that was scrapped.

[@milesd.8083]

my intent with this comment truly isn’t to be mean, but i just wanted to say that i feel like this video could’ve benefitted from some additional research? multiple times you question if something was part of the original (it wasnt), or comment on how something shows the original is quite dated (it wasnt in the original). like you said, it’s Dr Suess, it’s a bedtime story length, you can even find it online for free. it feels hard to take your criticism as being about the movie and its content when you aren’t able to discern what’s part of Dr Suess’ original and what’s Illumination’s add-on. clearly you have some knowledge of the original book and its plot but it feels very surface level and your analysis of the movie feels the same as a result

true i love this movie it is actually pretty good

[@nodrugsco.2267]

One idea I heard as a way to bring back "Biggering" was to play "How bad can I be" earlier on to symbolize the Onceler's naive mindset, and use "Biggering" as a more mature and arrogant counterpart to the former song. Woulda been cool

[@randomcat5262]

[@MillyKKitty]

You know How Bad I Can Be was an alternative version of the song that was supposed be there instead of it, called "Biggering". The song that would have been way more faithful to the message of the book.

[@JesusMartinez-rr2ry]

I especially do not like the pacing of Illumination's Lorax at all, since I have to wait for the How Bad Can I Be song for something to happen during the Once-ler's story. And even then, we only witnessed the effects in the form of a montage during the song as the pristine Truffula forest being degraded into a polluted wasteland. The 1972 animated Lorax short is far better in terms of the pacing, as we see the environment gradually getting more polluted as the factory grows and more Truffula trees are being chopped down and in turn replaced with more buildings and roads, along with the animals leaving their homes, as the environment became too polluted for them to live.

[@JJavier31rblx]

I wouldn’t call this “terrible” per say, I mean, there are worser illumination movies out there, which honestly makes this movie better.

[@JaguarCats]

Okay, there are a few simple ways to fix this film. First of all I'd kill three birds with one stone. 1) Lose the villain, the idea behind the Lorax that there is no villain! That you don't have to be evil to ruin nature, that it's possible for anyone to take too much and not realize it until it's too late. 2) Lose the love interest. Give our hero a BETTER reason to go out to try and find a tree. 3) I notice the kid doesn't have a father in this story, give him a dad! In place of the villain that runs the town, make the kid's dad run the town! Show all of the mounting pressure his dad is under to keep this town together while trying to make everyone happy and content. Which in turn inspires the kid to try and help his dad and everyone. The next thing I'd do is keep the Oncler's face HIDDEN. It wouldn't be hard to do too! You could build a series of gags around it! For crying out loud they kept the Neighbor's face mostly hidden on "Home Improvement" for the entire show's run, you could easily do it for an hour and a half movie! But yes! The idea behind the Oncler is to again emphasize that this could be or happen to ANYONE. That he could be you or me! Lastly I'd keep the ambiguous ending! Don't reveal whether or not the kid succeeds in convincing people to change. But hey! Keep the song "Let it grow" but instead, use it differently. Show the kid returning to town, show faded images of how the land use to look and may yet still be again. Leave the audience wondering, are these shadows of the past or of the future? And end it with the kid returning to his dad who just got done with another hectic meeting with the last shot being the kid showing his dad the seed the Oncler gave him.

[@alexrobi1176]

I still think this is one of the more enjoyable illumination movies.

[@Verydeadbarbie]

Ill never forget what tumblr did with the once-ler... they went wild

[@lovely_fish3233]

5:02 The oncler is supposed to be for like what once was. He’s supposed to represent corporations who deliberately harm the environment knowingly in order to make a profit. This is why Dr. Seuss chose not to show his face and just show his gloves because you’re not supposed to think of him as a person but more so a corporation. The 1970s film also does not show his face. This is something illumination chose to do deliberately because if they had actually stuck to the story, they would call themselves out. This is the major thing I have an issue with this Lorax. they made him young and hip in order to feel sad and sorry for him. They chose to sing “how bad can be” rather than the song “bigering” Because it makes the oncler sound more naïve where is biggering he openly admits to knowingly harm the environment in order for profit like the original story calls for. I’m also bothered by the choice of having the “kid“ be named Ted and have a conclusive ending. The whole point is that the audience/the reader can put themselves in the shoes of the kid. By giving him a name and ultimately making him choose to plant the seed it makes it feel as if the story is concluded. Where is the original Lorax the whole point is the fact that change and deforestation is still an ongoing issue. And ultimately it is up to you as the reader to choose whether or not you want to do something about it. That’s why the book doesn’t have a conclusive ending and ends on open because it’s supposed to make you reflect. But the way the movie ends, it kinda of wraps everything up and the audience leaves the movie, assuming that the story has been wrapped up and there’s no other need to reflect on the morals of the movie. I think illumination animation wise is best for Dr. Seuss. They heavily butchered the story of the Lorax because if they told the true story they themselves would be hypocrites.

[@Chlorine5572]
