[@vinrock123]

Stay away from the 4th one because they just recast the characters

[@rileygarraway87]

​@@vinrock123so true didn't like it even Roderick casting was great original actor that played recast Roderick ended up giving him fraze

[@carter_lovejoy]

I remember when Christopher Nolan did interviews for Oppenheimer last year, one of the interviewers talked about Devon Bostick in the movie and that he grew up with the Wimpy Kid films. Nolan then said “Rodrick Rules!” We got Nolan considering Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules a masterpiece of cinema before GTA 6.

[@cristiancannoletta4691]

Next week "Dog Days"?

[@foxandeagle6790]

Manny is a freaking psychopath. Believe me, reading one of the books, he once trapped his whole family at home during winter and shut off the power supply. While they were suffering, he was in his room chilling with snacks and a heat generator. All because no one taught him to tie his shoes!!,

[@carter_lovejoy]

A literal demon from Hell.

[@stephatflashpoint]

@@carter_lovejoy Cabin Freeze is so underrated one of favorites

[@ben-neon19]

Also, he did put a cookie in Greg's video game system causing it to break. As an apology, he makes a little craft which ends up hurting Greg's best friend butt so badly. He can also build his own little house and invited his friends while Greg's family house was getting demolished by a wrecking ball.

[@mo_munir3474]

He's only thwee!

[@StacheBoi]

i mean he is a child lmao not much you can do

[@ccjtv809]

What's crazy is the Indian kid ended up playing her adopted brother in a Disney channel show called Jesse and Cameron Boyce was in that show rest in peace

[@icybird9999]

You forgot to say who “her” is. Op meant Holly Hills (Peyton List)

[@AntiHeroApollo]

I don’t know. I was always on the verge of crying when Rodrick says “you’ll always be my brother, but you’ll never be my friend…” That cuts deeps. 😭💀

[@mrsfahrenheit]

tough line

[@Masons-h7r]

That’s facts, I feel my little sister would say something like that, or I would😢

[@felix_hernandez98]

RODERICK RULES IS BY FAR THE BEST DIARY WIMPY KID MOVIE!! it's so freaking hilarious every time I watch it

[@Getstr8cash]

It’s the most entertaining in my opinion I loved it

[@ReelRejects]

so happy you love it!

[@Catwhisper175]

​​@@Getstr8cashwhoever made the fourth one butchered it completely

[@dankvibezz4296]

Facts!!!

[@jessehernandez6446]

I think it’s the party /Concert sequence that makes it most enjoyable fs, makes the movie feel bigger. Dog days is amazing too with it’s summer vibes but Rodrick Rules Js sticks out more

[@elijahrace955]

9:43 god dammit Greg knows how to instantly piss off Roxy 😂

[@ReelRejects]

loool

[@skyereacts125]

lol right? i was a little confused bc i feel like roxy makes A LOT of similar jokes along with him so i was alitle lost when she took it a little seriously. she got on greg's ASS in the challengers reaction but hey

[@ethanholgate2512]

That was kinda silly of her to take seriously it was just humour but maybe I'm missing something 🤷‍♂️

[@cashmoneynaz568]

Am i missing something? What happened with Roxy and Arron?

[@elijahrace955]

@@cashmoneynaz568 on Greg’s birthday livestream Aaron left a friend (who he may or not have been romantically involved with) in his car while he was on stream and Roxy got super upset he didn’t invite the girl inside and took it upon herself to call him out on the stream for not treating the woman right. I’m sure much more happened behind the scenes but yeah that’s pretty much the gist of it. It caused a whole mess that day but otherwise the stream went by pretty smoothly. I thought handling it live was kinda the wrong move but ya know, it was pretty entertaining nonetheless

[@ShyheemOfTheDead]

When this movie came out, This Is the film I discovered both Karan Brar & Peyton List. Then grew to love them more religiously throughout their Disney era of Jessie & Bunk'd during my teen years. I miss them together in projects❤️

[@ReelRejects]

So wild to see how far Peyton has come

[@Seahawks_Nation]

Bruh I just noticed that lmao

[@videohistory722]

There was also this whole subplot about Greg and Rowley discovering Dungeons and Dragons.

[@videohistory722]

in the book, the Mom Buck exchange rate is one mom Buck = 1 penny.

[@FlyingScotsman4072]

Oh Rodrick Rules is the best one out of the trilogy! It's the one I always come back to and watch.

[@dylsterdiscusses4260]

[@ilovefentnyl]

thank you disney freak

[@mrsfahrenheit]

@@ilovefentnyllol I was about to say "why did you have to insult them" but that's actually their name😂

[@WhiteNegative]

Dude Rodrick is like the perfect actor for the older brother archetype he plays the part sooooo perfectly

[@thomas2k934]

I'll never forget when Devon Bostick reacted to the trailer for Long Haul. You could see the heartbreak in his eyes when he realized he wasn't coming back to play Rodrick😔

[@lilicovič]

do you deadass think that's actually how he found out he wasn't coming back to play rodrick? his reaction to the long haul trailer was a bit if i've ever seen one 💀

[@MonAhgasInsomniAroELF]

@@lilicovič maybe op didn't mean that was when he found out, but more like the realization hit that the role was really over for him. i've never seen the vid you're talking about so i have no input about whether the whole thing is a bit or not, but people often have experienced retroactive sadness/regret over a decision they made prior that at the time they were totally okay with. i've experienced it, you probably have too, and if you haven't then you certainly will some day. so i don't think the possibility that he was a bit sad that he would no longer be able to play the role and maybe felt nostalgic too is ridiculous.

[@Cadence__1700]

I remember this movie! I was a kid when I seen it now I'm like almost 20. Crazy how time flies, right?

[@jacobasuncion3132]

Same here I remember going to see it with one of my friends from the baseball team

[@toma9955]

These movies are the perfect movies when you're on a long plane flight

[@Nasiruify]

Because of these reactions I'm learning more and more bout the reel rejects lore

[@ianpreston4408]

This one was great! Peyton List that plays Holly Hills looks so different and sounds different too! This was before she was in Cobra Kai!

[@ReelRejects]

Do you have a sibling?! Tell us about em!

[@Colin-bowser]

I have a older sister instead

[@Itzlogan969]

Tbh I wish, I have two younger sisters, still love my sisters though lol.

[@josh8764]

Oddly mine and my brothers relationship was similar to Greg and Rodrick. Hated each other growing up and now we’re sound

[@kaitlynsays]

hes been in jail for over a year now, i think that says enough 🫠

[@lil-q-pop4283]

i have a younger brother he’s actually autistic and we HAD a relationship similar to greg and rodrick but as we both grew older (he’s 2 years younger than me) we realized there’s no use in fighting ALL the time anymore (although we still argue from time to time 😅)

[@dthill96]

The best of the 3 original 🎥s. Dog Days is good too (same director as Rodrick Rules). The cast is also still close which is cool af

[@danielwest3087]

The drawings directly reference the exact style of the drawings in the books that these movies are adapted from. So good!

[@TurboMaui]

We know exactly who you are then reciting said persons address is a wild move

[@maxTheTimeSlasher]

This film means so much to me as a brother. Favorite one for sure

[@mattdoesntknowwhattodowith5760]

The dad is absolutely my favourite part of these movies

[@ben-neon19]

Fun fact. Rowley appeared in RL Stines The Haunting Hour series and Devon Bostick played a small role in Oppneheimer was in The 100 and Saw. Also the rollar rink scene reminded me of Stranger Things and El getting bullied. Patty reminded me of Angela.

[@stevecalderon1985]

Roxy and Greg Rules!!! For the next Wimpy Kid movie reaction, both of you should wear purple, a mix of blue and pink together.

[@ReelRejects]

you rock!

[@alwaysfiending]

I get more and more excited for the reactions to this movie trilogy!!! This movie highlights my childhood cause my brother used to bully me constantly like Rodrick as kids but since then we had a similar arc to that of Greg and Rodrick towards the end of this film

[@nateflores8160]

The dad kills me 😂 especially every time he gets so flustered and goes crazy it has me rolling

[@BlitzWizard94]

that mall chase and seeing them hanging out always made me smile good times

[@alyssapayne6493]

If you want to be really grossed out, one of my childhood memories is watching “How to eat fried worms”! Now that would be a funny reaction! Also would love for them to react to “HOOT” iconic!

[@kaitlynsays]

HOOT is so underrated!!

[@mysterie3575]

yess I loved how to eat fried worms! that movie is amazing and so gross😭😭😭😭😭

[@hategonji]

A how to eat fried worms reaction would slap the nostalgia 😭

[@Quzga]

Omg i love you!! I watched the worm one as a kid and been trying to find it for years but all I remembered was a microwave scene. I had given up on it until now 😮

[@Kromark]

When social media " stars " start saying a $1000 is nothing you know they have lost the plot and ego has taken over.... Roxy thank you for being grounded... Team Roxy.

[@wintrs6411]

I HAD NO CLUE GREG AND JABY WERE BROTHERS MY WHOLE LIFE IS CHANGED

HOW TF DID I NOT KNOW YOU AND JABI WERE BROTHERS GREG!!!! 😮😂😂

[@tanasiascott]

RIGHT!?

[@JT-gb2lj]

Fun fact my cousin remade the spiky tinfoil thing when this movie first came out and gave it to my grandma as a gift. She still has it sitting on her mantle today lmao.

[@BlitzWizard94]

pure nostalgia that party was awesome and rodrick is still one of my favorite characters ha

[@TheFancastFanatic]

had to stop myself from cheering when Roderick popped up in Oppenheimer 😂

[@-mapero6851]

Finally 😍 the reaction that we've been waiting

[@justonjenkins1589]

Water parks are only disgusting if you're a germaphobe. If you just want to just go have a good time.They are a blast

[@BrianLightyear]

21:22 that’s something I love about that line and have that abilities to outsmart to expect the unexpected 😂

[@GroovyyAlexx]

as a kid i loved these movies so much but didnt understand the themes and now being 20 rewatching this dont know why but the whole brother storyline actually had me tearing up. these movies r so great

[@flacocarrera7037]

Yessssssss. Once again. This is such a great series. Y’all’s reaction to the first one was hilarious and ik Greg is gonna have a great time with this one. I love you Roxy! You’re the best. My one half of my favorite rejects!

[@Elstunna_]

“What was general grant doing on the thermostat?!” Still gets me 😂

[@rocky.rocks1445]

17:46 Jeff Kinney (the author of Diary of a Wimpy Kid) makes a cameo as Holly's dad in this scene

[@de606returns6]

I had no idea, that's actually awesome

[@jaimeantoniomangune5793]

i don’t recognized that a cobra kai star was in that film 😱🐍

[@rocky.rocks1445]

The main actors in this movie haven't hit puberty yet. In Dog Days you can tell they hit puberty. Jeff Kinney wanted to make a 4th movie with the same actors, but they hit puberty so quickly they weren't able to make a 4th movie with those actors. Also, when Jeff Kinney wrote the books, he wrote it like a kid writing in a journal. A kid writes about his middle school years with little to no plot, and a bunch of random events happening in the school year (or his/her home life) that barely connects together. The movies were made like the books, but with a bit of a plot to make the movie actually work as a movie.

[@diegodiablo__]

I grew up around the same age as the Greg character when these movies came out so they’re super nostalgic to the way my childhood sorta was and the whole school /sibling drama FEELING bigger than the problems actually are , it is super “slice of life” and naturally hilarious 😂

[@hannahprice9890]

These films are such comfort movies for me especially this one and the 3rd one where the sibling and family dynamic is so prevalent. I have an older brother and sister and i feel like these movies truly capture the essence of sibling relationships especially growing up. Also helps that the cast have such good chemistry together and feel like an actual family unit especially the bond between Greg and Rodrick. Loved the reaction hope you'll cover the 3rd one!

[@Mrmapleleaffan13]

They did come out the three films in 2010, 2011 and 2012

[@isaac-lk5xm]

“ Dog days” is great too

[@osamahabib7547]

Of the 3 this one is the best in the series.

[@cordyl6748]

51:03 I didn’t know he was your brother 😭🤔

[@goatbrook9065]

This is definitely the fan movie movie, greg and Rodericks relationship in this is great. I like how every movie focuses on one of gregs relationships with his friends or family, all of them are great

[@josh8764]

This is the best of the 3 originals. 3 is good still but after that it kinda goes south tbh

[@mattdoesntknowwhattodowith5760]

Also holly hill in the book is introduced as Greg’s crush and is forgotten about maybe 1 or 2 books later with the most happening is her mistaking Greg for fregly. It’s another welcome change that the movies bring

[@impoweredpotato8629]

Growing up with these movies ive always enjoyed them but i find it surprising that I enjoy them even more as an adult. Hope you guys check out the 3rd one

[@Mr_Murk]

I colorblind when you said that shirt was pink I was like- oh…

[@darkvampx]

51:00 Lowkey didn’t even know that was your brother even though I said y’all look alike I’m slow asf 😭 (Can’t wait for y’all to watch the third movie)

[@407BRR]

Same. I don't usually watch that channel, but it still surprised me.

[@mrsfahrenheit]

not just you man.. I'm having an epiphany right now

[@crazydaave5394]

same. I had no idea and I watch both of them 😂

[@marcussantos188]

I keep forgetting they are brothers😂

[@madieartwolf]

Yesss RODRICK RULES🖤✨️

[@oweng9417]

This movie is ingrained in my memory. Watched it a million times as a kid. Rodrick is the greatest character in fiction

[@FilmFanatic1980]

Watched this movie alot growing up. Brings back good memories. Great reaction guys!!

[@videohistory722]

The resolution with invisible Chirag didn’t happen like that. Chirag just told on him to the principal. The principal gave him a stern lecture, a lollipop, and a pat on the back, and also ordered to apologize.

[@JosephLicka]

24:16 People like to joke that Rodrick threw the best Party with no Alcohol 😂

[@resurekt97]

By far my fav book and movie in this series. Has the perfect amount of emotions out of all the movies.

[@davewxtdabag]

I did just realize we never seen aaron and roxy together 😂😂😂

[@kiyan.videos]

Dude, Perfect. I love the Rejects, and I love Diary of a Wimpy kid. Started reading in 4-5th grade, and I watched the first movie before my first day of middle school. Pretty good movie, and your reactions make it better. PERFECT TIMING! Rodrick Rules is also like the best book / Movie, so Plus!

[@mikeisforreal6030]

Fun fact: Even though he only has background appearances, Holly's dad is played by the author of the books

[@millennium0101]

These movies aren’t particularly well made and are very much bad kid films. BUT I grew up on the books reading every single one as they were released and so the movies were just so much fun. Especially Rodrick rules since it reminded me so much of my brother. I have a lot of nostalgia for the diary of a wimpy kid films and i genuinely love them. Dog days is also a particularly good one since (kind of a spoiler ish, it’s about the summer).

[@olliej9461]

You guys should watch Fred: the movie. That one is pretty underrated

[@juliangarcia5730]

One of the greatest movies ever made

[@khaleesidire3367]

Love the brother/sister vibe you have while watching Rodrick Rules 😂

[@GuyWithNoNickName]

The books themselves are very much all over the place. They’re basically a collection of different events that happen to Greg. The first film tried to encompass everything into more of a solid narrative (at least as much it could) This one seemed a bit more like the book where it seems all over the place at times. The film does try to have throughlines to tie some things together, but overall, it does feel like a collection of slice-of-life episodes in a film. Which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but probably why to you the first one felt more “a movie.”

[@AceZachrocks123]

It's Crazy how this movie is genuinely a good movie. Like Masterpiece can't lie, I adored the movie when I was a kid but like I still really adore it.

[@lilybickerton4768]

These movies are based on a huge book series and thats what the drawings are. I absolutely loved the books and the movies did really good with portraying the books. Rodrick Rules is definitely the best one. Kinda wish they at least did one more.

[@owenoseroff]

It’s actually kinda funny cause Peyton List and Karran Bar go on to star in JESSE together.

[@anthonychavarria1573]

I had forgotten how funny these movies are since I saw these so long ago. I was laughing out loud throughout the reaction!

[@TheRealAkz]

17:30 Had Me Dying 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Tmillsbro]

I’m the youngest and my 2 older brothers hated me and now they’re my 2 best friends this movie always gave me anxiety since I was a kid and even today I still get that feeling. Great Movie!

[@kaelynnemackenzie8531]

I quote “Dore” way too much 💀😭

[@ben-neon19]

The clean up scene was top notch and a cinematic masterpiece. Also, this one is def the best out of the franchise.

[@SithEnthusiast12]

you can wear what you plz to church but, even in a short sleeve collar i feel judged cuz i have tatts lol

[@n3phlym]

Fun Fact: Karan Brar voiced an 1800s different earth Jason Todd in Batman: The Doom That Came to Gotham

[@WrestlingGod-f4v]

when are we going to see Tara and Roxy react to scream

[@TheRealZOLO1]

These movies were such a go to as a kid, Watched them all the time.

[@de606returns6]

Brother movies always get me and this is one that me and my older brother used to watch together as well, I'm glad you reacted to it Also Roderick's actor Dylan is the Greatest thing to ever grace this earth and I will not hear otherwise

[@MC4MJ]

Just learned that the guy from CinePals is Gregs brother. I've been watching their videos all weekend

[@braydenschuelke]

I’m sure you’re already going to, but please react to Dog Days, the third in the series. It’s an incredible conclusion to the series.

[@Owen-ub3fv]

49:23 That's bot Greg. That's Freggley.

[@NerdsEngage]

Can't wait for you guys to get to the 3rd, it just gets better and better with these 3. Enjoy!

[@ben-neon19]

You should give Dog Days a watch, it's also entertaining. The little girl appears again and that men's changeroom scene traumatized me.

[@prettypointlessproductions]

You have to watch dog days now and finish off the greatest movie trilogy of all time

[@Jademoon25]

51:02 OMG THAT IS GREG'S BROTHER! Freaking, KZbin has been recommending me that channel on my home page and every time I scroll by a thumbnail I think it's Greg and I'm like- "Nooo, that's not Reel Rejects that's not Greg, but someone is totally copying him..."

[@Chubby_Runs]

The kid who plays Greg doesn’t do much acting anymore but he is on social media and got absolutely fucking ripped

[@ascenciopictures]

He's a singer now

[@siamese..]

Stop internalizing everything in this great movie with your trauma lmfao

[@benhuffman31]

All Hail King Rodrick and The Zahn!

[@simplebull210]

I wonder if roxy knows this is a book series and the animations are straight out of the book, because she keeps pointing them out like they’re made special for the movie lol

[@Hoodie_HD]

Greg’s dad always looks like he’s either about to throw something or have a panic attack. He’s pretty much the only normal one in the family.

[@JohnfromManitoba]

Dame you guys was quick with this one yess 😁

[@main9613]

You have to check out Dog Days. It is also a modern classic!!! It tackles the dad and gregs relationship and it is such a fun summer movie becayse most of the film is spent on a pool!

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

However if you guys are ever in Massachusetts or Roxy if you ever come back here definitely visit Plainville and stop by the library call "An unlikely story" the author of these books opened up a book store and he's doing a lot more in that area well he wants to at least he has plans to expand but the bookstore itself is a great experience especially when he is there
