REACTING to *The Spiderwick Chronicles* A FORGOTTEN CLASSIC?! (First Time Watching) Fantasy Movies

[@whitenoisereacts]

Did you read this book?

[@MadisonSicca25]

Yes! One of the greatest books that I’ve read from my childhood :)

[@EChacon]

I have and for a feature film adaptation adapting all five books in one film it was really well done and almost on par with the film _Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events._ Although part of me did wish it was adapted as two films so it includes all elements from all five books since the film did remove elements and certain characters such as the dwarfs who work for Mulgarath. Fortunately there is going to be a Television series that will premiere on Roku and will be more close to the original books.

[@TheRealBillix]

I so hope that even one reaction channel would watch that movie... @@EChacon

[@toonlinkunknown7667]

Yep.

[@shelbychopson4022]

Yes! Ages ago

[@littlemissmonster6969]

Oh man I really can’t describe the awe this film filled me with as a little girl, literally changed the way I viewed the natural world around me

[@sofie-marievogel5712]

literally same

[@wesmcinerny4524]

Check out the original books, too.

[@slandracon3853]

The books, movie, and game (360) all made me fall in love with fae and myth when i was younger.

[@kangtrisk]

Same

[@joeevans5974]

Ikr? Same...when I was little I knew this was a movie but it filled me with magic for the real world, something I still see around me to this day.🥰

[@trinaq]

A movie from my childhood. I love how Freddie Highmore played both twins, with Sarah Bolger as their sister.

[@little_kawala_baby5761]

Ngl i though they were actual twins. I love how movies and shows can make it look so good that you think its real

[@c5l6t4]

Every time I see Freddie Highmore in any media now I just remember him as a kid from this movie and get the urge to watch it all over again

[@Milqilin]

He was both?? I never knew that.

[@loiseauxmort9568]

As a kid I was terrified of this movie but loved the book(s). Nowadays I love both!

[@SJHFoto]

I am OLD! Everytime I hear someone said "as a kid" for a movie that came out when I was already in my 30s, it just makes me feel old as dirt!

[@EChacon]

For a feature film adaptation adapting all five books of _The Spiderwick Chronicles_ in one film, it was really well done adaptation and almost on par with the film _Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events._ Freddie Highmore did an amazing performance portraying both Simon and Jared Grace, alongside the vocal performances of Martin Short as Timbletack, Seth Rogen as Hogsqueal and Nick Nolte as the terrifying ogre Mulgarath. Even the VFX of the various creatures and fairies done by ILM and Tippett Studios respectively and the score by the late James Horner was also well done. A part of me did wish it was adapted as two films so it includes all elements from all five books since there were many elements and certain characters such as the dwarfs who work for Mulgarath that were written out in the final film. Fortunately, there is going to be a new Television series of _The Spiderwick Chronicles_ that will premiere on Roku sometime in 2024 and will be more close to the original five books.

[@robertbrookes2000]

I love the film of A series of Unfortunate Events, probably more so than the whole Netflix series. The tone, acting, music and costume design all outshine the show imo. I think because those books were longer, they had a slightly harder job adapting multiple stories into one film than Spiderwick, but I love it regardless. The other iconic Freddie Highmore role for me growing up was in Arthur & the Invisibles. Another story about a boy discovering the secret magical world all around him that an older relative found, that was based off a book series. I also remember a sequel, but it turns out there were two, but for the UK they smushed 2 & 3 together into one, weird. Even stranger was the odd horror film made by the original creator that was like a meta look at the film called: Arthur, malédiction.

[@chase_j8750]

​@@robertbrookes2000 I loved Arthur and the Invincibles when I was a kid, I always still rewatch it till now

[@EChacon]

@@robertbrookes2000Besides _Arthur and the Invisibles_ I also appreciate Freddie’s work in _Two Brothers, Finding Neverland, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory_ and _August Rush._ He sure has come along way from doing these films to Bates Motel and now _The Good Doctor_

[@EChacon]

⁠@@robertbrookes2000As for _A Series of Unfortunate Events_ I agree I think both the film and Netflix are good but I definitely prefer the film more due to its production design and visuals along with Jim Carrey as Count Olaf. It was unfortunate it didn’t received a sequel due to the work schedule of the actors and also the actors who played the Baudelaire’s aging out of their roles. Would be awesome if Nobu and the girls did a reaction to it and the series, but alas White Noise Reacts is ending next month unless someone wants to run the channel moving forward which is the million-dollar question

[@david6321]

Coming from the future to say that the TV show sucks

[@destiny8794]

Okay, I haven't seen this movie in YEARS! I was worried about rewatching it and finding out it wasn't as good as I remembered, but thankfully I was wrong. Something that never really affected me was the time Lucy spent away from her father. Watching it now hits differently. It's even better than I remembered. I'm glad you guys watched it. :)

[@ElykRindon07]

Thank you for reacting to this movie, it's one of my favorite childhood films. Few things: 1: The five books from which the movie was based on expands more on the fantastical world round them: how the Elves, instead of sylphs, guard the secrets of faeries, how dwarves live in a nearby quarry, how there's also a river troll between the estate and the goblin camp, and how Mulgarath has a castle in a nearby junkyard. 2: The ending was a bit different in the books; Arthur steps out of the leaves that keeps him from dying and dies in front of Lucinda. 3: I love how Mallory calls Jared "Psycho" and actor Freddie Highmore later plays Norman Bates. 4: There's a sequel series of three books set in Florida (this one is set in New England) where step-siblings help a nixie with a Giant problem. 5: The books are getting a new adaptation. It was finished and meant for Disney+ but it was moved to RokuTV during the strikes.

[@whitenoisereacts]

Ohhhh wow!! I wish that had been the ending

[@lisandragazaniga9938]

oh my god, really?? This news made my day, I can't wait for more of this, I have the field guide and I know fans would love to see more of the fairy world

[@Azurespix]

how did i not know theres another adaptation???? thats so awesome

[@AnvilPictures]

This movie scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. It’s still quite scary now, especially for a Nickelodeon movie aimed at kids. I love it.

[@TheHatGuy1500]

At the beginning it scared me

[@sirnameless7815]

This is literally the only reaction to this specific movie on KZbin. I hope more folks decide to follow suit because this film is truly a hidden gem.

[@AnvilPictures]

What I really appreciate about the movie are the designs of the creatures. The goblins having more of a Frog or Toad inspiration and the Hobgoblin having more of a Pig design. Also Red Cap isn’t just a nickname for the goblin as it’s a type of Goblin in folklore.

[@EChacon]

There’s some bat design in Hogsqueal and the Hobgoblin as well.🦇🦇

[@risgord6990]

I recommend checking out the original field guide, all the creatures have a similar level of love and inspiration in their designs. It also delves into the different legends and folklore behind them.

[@lisandragazaniga9938]

I grew up near a small forest, so I can't describe how scared I was to leave the house after seeing this movie or how much I tried to find fairies in my grandmother's flower bed. Today it is one of my favorite films ever.

[@mallikaanand7917]

This was such a classic for me!! I personally don't know if it's a faithful adaption to the book, but as a stand alone movie, I used it love it! Even today I'll sometimes watch it out of nostalgia.

[@theadaptationstationmaster]

"So tomato sauce really kills goblins?" "Dang, I knew the Italians had it right." LOL

[@masonwatchesmovies]

Oh man this was a classic from my childhood. No one talks about this film and it should be talked about more

[@marinad]

It is impossible to describe how much I loved this movie as a kid, it was just so fantastical! Watching it as an adult hits different but I still love it

[@RedBlueNinja]

I can't believe you guys actually did this one! I personally love this movie. My birthday is actually coming up so this feels like an early present lol.

[@teapots_and]

i've read all the books from the library but then a very special one that i actually had at home, was the "Arthur Spiderwick's field guide", which had all the info that the book in the movie/series has, AND these absolutely *gorgeous* illustrations.. if you like artbooks and stuff i really recommend it.. me and my brother were obsessed with this book and knew all about the creatures i remember:D it is a wonderful world which this series introduces..

[@gorlithia]

One of the first movies I remember watching and loving as a kid.

[@Samgreen90]

(At 22:15)) And the fact is cap is "probably" soaked in blood, that's kind of one of the reason he's called Redcap.

[@Jay-ix9bc]

I forgot this movie exists. I love watching this as a kid.

[@kristophersy773]

Ah man I almost forgot about this movie. It was so good when I watched this so long ago

[@chrismcfetridge620]

There's a new version coming out soon!.. So that will be interesting to see what they do with it, along with the New Percy Jackson. Cool Reaction as ever.

[@sivonni]

I hope they do it justice. It's set for 8 episodes. Disney+ already completed the series but then didn't air it so Roku bought the rights or something. Since it was a Disney series, they seem to have done the typical "diversity" changes so the Grace's are mixed race kids which is...whatever, doesn't affect the story, but they also seem to have aged them up or maybe the pics are just aged since they finished filming back in 2021? I'm not sure.

[@lilbrownbear]

SUCH AN UNDERRATED GEM! (i remember freddie highmore used to be THE CHILD ACTOR in most movies back then)

[@MadisonSicca25]

This is such a great movie! I was surprised when I first heard on Patreon that you guys actually watched this movie because I know I’ve mentioned it a little while ago when I was questioning about the book series of this. I got so excited to watch your reactions to this, it’s one of my favorite movies of all time, and I think it was really well done! I really enjoyed this reaction so much, I love it :) Although they are completely different, the book and movie versions of The Spiderwick Chronicles are both well-thought out.

That is why the police car left with the sirens on. Also there were two kissing scenes with Selenia and Arthur. Some of the voices are different. In one scene Arthur used a string that held Selenia's top together and tied it to the Sword and he used it to rescue them.

[@robertbrookes2000]

There's something so nostalgic seeing everyone in the comments talk about watching this film growing up.

[@cirrusB612]

Ah, this is such an underrated classic. I remember arguing with my brother because he had all the cool merch and I didn't. Neither me nor my siblings actually read it, but the movie was based off of a book series written by Holly Black and Tony Diterlizzi, and there was a journal based off of that for kids to "find their own creatures." I always thought of the movie as fantasy, but modern, more muted in its aesthetic, and I remember loving it as a kid. I''m so glad it's getting more attention now. Truly a hidden gem! Also, this storytellers' guild sounds so interesting! I'll be sure to look into it.

[@mon_moi]

I seriously missed out not watching this, Bridge to Terabithia, and LoTR as a kid, but at least I had Narnia and Harry Potter. Great fantasy films for 2000s kids like me

[@XChaoticX99]

I played the video game for the Xbox 360. Some lore about the goblins: There are two types, the bipedal ones and the ones on all fours. The bipedal goblins are more intelligent and can speak + use weapons. Redcap, the goblin with the coat and sword actually got his outfit and sword from a dead soldier he found during world war 2.

[@PaleoFiles]

This is honestly one of my most favourite movies and it’s seriously underrated as hell. It deserves more recognition

[@dylanaxel2723]

So happy you guys are checking this movie out, when I was a kid I was obsessed with the movies, the book and even the game

Hopefully your group reaction of _The Sorcerers Apprentice_ gets uploaded sooner than later considering it wasn’t uploaded yesterday and today and I don’t want another _Gravity_ situation where the reaction was delayed for 2-3 weeks without any updates on what’s going on with the reaction.

This movie remains one of my all time favorite movies of all time and it's been a decade since I've seen it.

[@c5l6t4]

OH MY GOSHHH!! Spiderwick Chronicles is one of my favorite childhood movies along with Dragon Heart, Stardust, Mr. Magorium’s Wonder Emporium, Harry Potter series, and Arthur and the Minimoys. It’s just such a great concept and story and I’m so glad to see you guys react to this masterpiece!

[@robertbrookes2000]

I think I might've been one of the people who recommended this film. It was an absolute classic from my childhood. I don't think I even read the whole series, but I did listen to some audiobooks that I'm pretty sure were unabridged, as it included book only plot points like: dwarves who had kidnapped Malory, and a river troll Jared had to escape from. So yeah there was a little more world building the film didn't have time for. But wow I think the film holds up tremendously. The effects look pretty good, I love how the creatures look tangible, like the goblins being a bit frog-like & the fairies camouflaging with flowers. The dual roles of Jared & Simon for Freddie Highmore is done well too, they are portrayed quite differently. And here's a big spoiler that I still remember from the book... In the original end, Arthur Spiderwick chooses to turn to dust after seeing his daughter one last time. Certainly a more bittersweet end than Lucinda going to live with him under the Slyph's spell. While double checking some of this, I found that there was going to be a Disney+ tv adaptation, which whilst it's apparently finished filming, due to cost-cutting it's being handed over to another company 'The Roku Channel', so it does look like it'll still come out. The cast is as follows: Lyon Daniels as Jared Grace Noah Cottrell as Simon Grace Joy Bryant as Helen Grace Mychala Lee as Mallory Grace Jack Dylan Grazer as Thimbletack Christian Slater as Mulgarath Sounds exciting, hope the effects hold up though, as that could easily ruin it.

[@hollowgamings]

this movie and Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events were both amazing to watch while growing up

[@rtaylor7384]

Yeah. The actor is playing two parts. That Freddy Highmore. He was in the reboot of Charlie and the chocolate factory. Then he went on to play Norman Bates in the TV show of Bates Motal and then went on to play in The Good Doctor. Fantastic Actor he is.

[@serenshadow89]

If you want some movies that are basically western Isekai check out: The Pagemaster John Carter Wizard of Oz InkHeart Space Jam The Forbidden Kingdom Zathura And these are some more good fantasy flicks from the same era as Spikerwick with a similar vibe: Golden Compass Sorcerer's Apprentice Stardust Eragon The Secret of Moonacre Seventh Son The Seeker: The Dark Is Rising Mirrormask

Funny thing is that _The Sorcerer’s Apprentice_ will be this Thursday’s reaction.

The movie heavily condensed the already short book series. The five books are under 100 pages each but include Mulgarath and the goblins hiding a fortress in a junkyard, Jared pulling a knife on Mulgarath at Mallory’s fencing tournament, a major faction of elves, and dwarves that build mechanical bugs and trees.

I remember seeing this with my quite a bit younger sister at the time, can't remember how old I was but at least mid teens. This was the first film that I realized if blood wasn't red it's ok, as far as a rating goes. I especially remember the one goblin that gets half his head blown off from the ketchup bomb.

[@brunaantelo72]

I know this movie back to front and listen to the soundtrack on a daily basis!! I just recently read the books and they were great too! There's a book series called "The Cruel Prince" which is written by the same author, though this one is focused on the Fae and many more creatures in the magical world. It sort of has the same vibe as spiderwick since they mix real word vs magical world. The author has actually said that The Spiderwick Cronicles takes place in the same world as The Cruel Prince, which made my experience reading both so much better, knowing that somewhere, the Grace children walked as do Cardan and Jude from the other series. :)

[@jojoal7115]

Thank you for reacting this is one of my favorite movies I used to watch it a lot last time I saw it I think 3 or 4 years ago because I forgot the name of the movie. Sadly I can’t watch the reaction now I have an exam tomorrow so I will watch it after tomorrow but it is one of my childhood movies it is amazing I used to rewatch it alone or with my family so many times even thought I used to get scared when I watched it as a child but I couldn’t stop rewatching ❤ ❤ 😂 😂.

[@BenjWarrant]

I had never even heard of the movie until I stumbled across it on TV. I quickly became certain that it was an outstanding fantasy movie, with all sorts of little touches that are very satisfying. It has humour and yet at the same time the sense of menace is maintained at a very high level. I would absolutely give it a 9 out of 10.

[@MechanicGopher]

The invisible creatures scratching the various characters and biting and causing bleeding was truly traumatizing as a kid.

13:33 That stone that the boy can see the goblins is a Witches Stone or Hag Stone. It is said that through looking we can see fairies and witches and can bring protection. In Coraline the protagonist used one too to find the souls. The hole in the stone occures because of some kind of corrosion
