RISE OF THE GUARDIANS (2012) TWIN BROTHERS FIRST TIME WATCHING MOVIE REACTION!

[@MarijnvdSterre]

A common theory is that Jamie is a descendant of Jack (or rather his sister). And Jack has been (unconsciously) keeping an eye out for his family through the centuries.

[@itscharly1919]

Yeah he even said something like „bring me home“ and thats were jamie lives.

[@AMStryx]

That or a descendant of Jack's sister he saved. Jaime does bear a remarkable likeness to her(and they looked to be close to the same age for comparison).

[@artsysabs]

One of my favorite running gags with these two is either “You killed it!” Or “Kill it!” 😂

[@erick48104]

Can't forget the "Get his ass!" and "Get him!" 😂

[@artsysabs]

@ yesssss 😂

[@treeb7951]

Rise of the Guardians is a very underrated film, I still enjoy it any time it's on.

[@danielshaw8648]

One of Jude Laws best performances. The fact that we haven't had him playing more villains is criminal.

[@ZeliBnnuy]

I like how the black horses are called nightmares not only because they’re literally children’s nightmares but also because they’re night - mares🥴

[@mrsfahrenheit]

BROTHER!!!

[@shadowking9739]

Fun fact: "nightmare" comes from the Old English word nihtmare, which is derived from niht, meaning "night" and mara, meaning "evil spirit". Some stories have maras "riding" sleeping people in order to suffocate them or riding horses until they collapse from exhaustion. There are even tales of maras taking the form of horses so the movie went with that.

[@mrsfahrenheit]

@ now that’s actually mad interesting

[@gabriellerizzato5973]

I was surprised to discover that not everybody got that immediately... I thought it was so obvious 😅

[@transformandgobricks7820]

It's often a forgettable fact that the Easter Bunny is voiced by Hugh Jackman!

[@GMDTurbo]

"Eastern Bunny"

[@DTLions26]

I prefer the Western Bunny.

[@tmtorsmth]

​@@DTLions26Southern ain't bad either

[@GMDTurbo]

@@tmtorsmth Nah bro the Northern Bunny is where it's at

[@XDTrons]

I thought I recognized his voice. Amazing actor

[@muppetsstoogesfan1]

A lot of people don't know that Rise Of The Guardians is based on a book series. Written by William Joyce. Highly recommend reading them. There's tons more lore and character arcs. William Joyce also created Rolie Polie Olie, Meet The Robinsons, and George Shrinks.

[@thechatteringclown]

To be fair, the books are so different from the movie, this is basically it's own thing.

[@TimedRevolver]

@@thechatteringclown This movie is the perfect example of 'inspired by' instead of 'based on'.

[@ChuchiiChoo]

rolie polie olie hes small and smart and round and in the land of curves and curls, He's the swellest kid around.

[@AMStryx]

That same series is what the movie "Epic(2013)" was loosely based on(specifically about the Leafmen). The movies obviously share no obvious/real connection, but they're indirectly connected through the OG source material.

[@mrsfahrenheit]

this film just objectively has one of the best concepts and story execution of all time and no one will ever proof me wrong

[@janahall7295]

It’s often overlooked when it comes to Dreamworks films, compared to things like HTTD series or Shrek but it’s severely underrated

[@AMStryx]

The concept isn't entirely original for those who made the movie. The concept is taken and adapted from a book series called The Guardians of Childhood.

[@tabithanel1975]

​@@AMStryx But... they didn't say it was original? They said that it was objectively amazing or something like that, which I have to agree with, because it is🤍🩵💙

[@AMStryx]

@@tabithanel1975 There's nothing wrong with informing someone where the amazing concept came from(it's roots in a sense), especially when something's inspired by a book series(it's more common than many realize for people to not be aware a movie/series they enjoy is based on novels). Nothing wrong with learning more about something you consider amazing. I wasn't disagreeing with anything they said as you seem to be (erroneously)assuming. Just providing clarification with some additional facts they seem likely to have not been aware of, which doesn't take away from their statement at all but rather adds to it by providing further context.

[@tabithanel1975]

@@AMStryx Okay, cool.

[@bartonbagnes4605]

The best thing about this movie is the unique storyline, a rare thing nowadays. And the creative depiction of the characters, again unlike any other.

[@vampg8r]

I loved this movie because it actually gave lore on the tooth fairy. I grew up knowing the tooth fairy collected the teeth and left money but was never given the reason why they collected them.

[@kaceyreed1284]

It was sacrificing part of your childhood to the fae folk 😉

[@NoKozi120]

watching yall react to christmas movies is probably gonna be the best part of christmas for me, its quite dull without it

[@OctoKrool]

We got more coming

[@inferlynx737]

This is my favorite holiday movie. I’m so sad they haven’t made any more. This is based on entire book series. And Russian Santa is the best version of Santa ever especially with the tattoos of naughty and nice.😂

[@jasongarcia1886]

Mines too this Santa is one of the coolest Santa's along with the John Travolta Santa and the Kurt Russel Santa

[@shadowking9739]

I like to think that Pitch was initially being genuine with Jack during their second meeting until his offer was rejected. He really saw Jack as the only person who could understand his situation and could become an ally to further his goals. Underneath all of that arrogance and sadistic cruelty is a sad, bitter man whose loneliness and desire to be believed in was warped into petty selfishness and jealous resentment.

[@cucublueberry8078]

28:00 he's an even better villain when you consider his backstory. He was a general, fighting the very shadows he now commands. But they tricked and overwhelmed him, making him Pitch Black. But he's basically still in there, taken hostage. That makes it extra cruel when the shadows drag him under at the end of the movie 🥲

[@WolfstarGaming1]

You guys picked up on Jack Frost being the spirit of Fun really fast, it's not directly stated, I think it's Wonder for Santa, Hope for Bunnymund, Innocence for Toothy and Dreams for Sandy. This was an awesome movie, it passed way under the radar. It should have been a bigger movie.

[@potatoechipxp2777]

what disappoints me is that Pitch can co-exist with the guardians bc nightmares remind us of the everyday dangers or appropriate precautions on whats to come later on life in which he's believed in again and is a necessary force in the world, i wish that was his ending

[@darkartexorcist]

Yeah that’s always bothered me as well, maybe if pitch represented something like irrational fears or paranoia then it could make a little more sense.

[@JHellraiser]

The reason it ended as it did is because Pitch didn't want to co-exist with the Guardians.

[@potatoechipxp2777]

@@JHellraiser ik vro was too power hungry not knowing he can get that power by co-existing its more on the lines of it may Not be THE way but it's A way

[@MetastaticMaladies]

This movie is so good, and that’s my favorite Santa, it’s fun imagining him as some bad ass with swords and tats

[@greengem9132]

In my opinion this Santa is way better than Santa from , Red one

[@nicktechnubyte1184]

A severely underrated masterpiece

[@BukJoy]

Wasn't expecting this underrated movie ☺

[@kenvaill300]

This deserved to become a cinematic universe.

[@Maca494]

"bro is FLYING!! what do you mean no shoes!?" hahahahahahahaha the little fairies fainting and drooling over Jack are a mood 🤣🤣 Love this movie. Frozen wishes it was this cool! but also tell me you did see the credits scene with the eggs, the fairies, the elves and the yetis putting the kids back to bed and Phil signing the Bigfoot pic on Jamie's magazine he was talking about in the beginning? XD

[@HelloXrancidkitteh]

funny you mention Frozen. a lot of people ship Jack Frost with Elsa 😂 I kinda get why though, since I guess they have very similar ice and snow powers, so thats one big thing in common.

[@PowerSpirit50]

​@@HelloXrancidkitteh I recently watched callimara's video defending it beyond that and I gotta say, as someone who doesn't ship, I'm convinced.

[@giuseppe9653]

Gotta love how the boogeyman's creatures are horses, good way to use the word Nightmare

[@irenelorenzoh]

17:32 in Spain (and I think France and Italy too) we don't have the tooth fairy, we have Ratoncito Pérez (Perez mouse)

[@AlphaOmegaKnight77658]

That’s interesting. In Mexico I heard that Aztec’s would collect their children’s teeth and leave them inside mouse holes; a kind of “Coming of age” custom

[@maxcr.3688]

Oh, in France we call it "la petite souris" (the little mouse)

[@laurabrewes1422]

Hugh Jackman was cast as the Easter Bunny and then asked early on if he could just use his regular Aussie accent. Also, fun fact: The kid voicing Jamie also played Max in Real Steel with Hugh.

[@UndeadNerdT800]

I think the Easter bunny is Australian because Easter island is near Australia

[@giolarocca]

17:31 yeah, in Europe we have the Tooth Mouse instead of the Tooth Fairy

[@angeliadark]

The book series this is based off of goes REALLY deep and often dark. They're well-worth the read.

[@_variamoon_8934]

It's from a book series ?! Wich one omg pls !

[@angeliadark]

@_variamoon_8934 The series is called The Guardians of Childhood by William Joyce. There are five total.

If you guys like this Santa you'll love his orgin story in Netflix's:Klaus with Jk summons, Joan Cusack and the voice actor of the spot in spiderverse!

A similar premise to this movie is "The Hogfather." It's a two-parter, and pretty long, but definitely something to consider for next year!

[@mathsalot8099]

Best Superhero Team-up of all time!

[@mermaidariel1316]

This movie is amazingly done, but Jude Law takes the lead imo. It's the role that really set him up as an actor who absolutely knows what it means to play a villain, and that just simply by his voice. In his younger years, he was a heartthrob, now though, I'd cast him as a villain in a snap.

[@freckle6471]

I'm so hype. This movie is awesome and so are you guys

[@panfanwithaplan]

There was and STILL is a concerning amount of people who are down horrendous for Jack Frost. Honestly can't really blame them, he checks all the boxes for being a total heartthrob. ❄️

[@gionnijohnson408]

@panfanwithaplan I know, I have a friend who is a fan girl who is down bad for Jack Frost and is a HUGE fan of ROTG like I am and you can't lie Jack is basically the Justin Bieber of DreamWorks except he's more cute and not a racist Canadian singer, for me I've always had a never ending crush on Bunnymund/Easter Bunny and is another reason why I kinda am a furry today, lol.💕🔥✨

[@kipperbill]

Chris Pine is such a cool voice for this character

[@BossedUpBaybee]

Shoutout to the editor for recommending this beautiful movie. I went to see it in theaters my sophomore year in high school and loved it ever since. Loved the concept of the movie and my favorite line is “I do believe in you, I’m just not afraid of you.”

This might be my favourite movie. It always fills me with wonder and whimsy when I watch it.

[@deezmo2022]

[@suemiller2522]

Love this movie! So underrated - the yetis and elves make me laugh every single time!

[@mogwiawolf4354]

grew up watching it and love it and its actually an easter movie not a christmas one

[@bwilliams463]

I like the concept and the story, but the acting of the kid characters really lacks, especially when they're trying to summon up enthusiasm for Tooth Fairy and Sandman. I do love the Guardian character designs; I think turning the Tooth Fairy into a hummingbird was a left-field choice that actually turned into a great interpretation.

[@bidwell13]

13:40 check out the reindeer in the movie “Red One”. These ones are small compared to them.

[@PC3inc]

6:01 to be honest the kid was already killing the fish bc goldfish need at least 20 gallons of water in a tank(not a bowl)

[@marissathebooknerd]

This is such a fun movie ❤ Glad you guys liked it too ❤️ "You are naughty list🤨" hehe best line ever 😂 Also Boogey is Jude Law - and in my opinion rhe best villian ever

[@joewoodruff7128]

I love this movie!!!! Hugh Jackman did the voice for Easter Bunny so the studio made him Australian. BTW... Jude Law did the Boogy Man. That's why he's so cold and smooth.

[@artsysabs]

Yay, thanks for watching this! This movie is so cute 😊

[@rilldineth]

This movie is amazing and was sadly underrated when it came out, which was a shame because the book series this was based on is amazing, I do recommend people to read it since it has lots of lore and characters arcs (Pitch has a daughter and the character Jack Frost is based on is quite interesting in the books...they all are.) Also, the tidbit about the French mouse, that is a nod that in certain parts of Europe and basically pretty much most of Latinamerica, it's a mouse that collect the teeth and not a fairy, I have never heard of the tooth fairy until I visited USA for the first time, for me it was always a mouse collecting the teeth haha.

[@blackwhiteartistry733]

I didn't know there was a book series. Might have to look into that.

[@robbinsnest6163]

My hubby and I watched this movie in theaters and love it! We just recently let our kids watch it and they loved it too!😊 such an underrated movie! ❤

[@book_Emmy]

My favourite headcanon for this amazing movie is that Jack's young sister he died for is Jamie's ancestor

[@jessicahedman3048]

Jack O´Lantern would make an absolute symbol for Halloween!

[@serenitytoepper]

In the book series, Pitch is actually the Nightmare King, and he's determined to take over children's dreams and happiness and replace them by darkness. He's also able to actually turn children into Fearlings, which are literally his creatures of darkness, something that would be terrifying for kids. Imagine having your soul completely and utterly tainted, perverted and corrupted! Because he can manipulate shadows and can't stand the light, he's earned himself the name of Boogeyman

[@julia.mp4]

omg i'm so happy u guys watched this movie!!!! is MY FAVORITEEE i wished/and wish so much since child to have a sequel. this universe and the characters are so cool!!!

[@zeroinfinity5864]

[@alucardbloodream2013]

the things they dont tell you, jack frost is actually the enemy of santa claus. santa is more like krampus, instead of coal if your bad, he drags you to hell. highly recommend the krampus movie, the easter bunny. isnt all fur and friendliness. He actually kidnaps children when the parents are sleeping. takes Them's and eat them, he uses the eggs as bait. sandman, has a darker past then this movie makes him out to be. cant remember on the tooth fairy, and the boogie man has been around since the dawn of human fear. But when humans became more modern, parents would use him, to scare there children. if they did something wrong, dont obey your parents and the boogieman would take you away

[@ChefRye1]

This movie came out during the 3d movie craze and I think that it was such a good one to watch in 3d very brilliantly done

[@c-puff]

In Europe and South Africa and other former British Colonies, it's the tooth mouse :) not the tooth fairy. You have to leave cheese for it in a show along with your tooth

[@serenitytoepper]

The Sandman heard of him believe it or not that dream you had where you could fly for the one about being a pop star that's the same man's work for sandy as he's known to his fellow Guardians. The Sandman is a mythical spiritual being originating from European folklore. Typically, a character in children's fables, he is said to put people to sleep and bring good dreams by sprinkling magic sand into people's eyes at night. The grit in people's eyes when they wake from sleep is supposedly the Sandman's doing.

[@AMStryx]

I highly recommend watch the *Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole* movie. For a movie that came out in 2010 the graphics, and music, still hold up like you wouldn't believe. Absolute eye candy of an animated movie. Rise of the Guardians is *very* LOOSELY based on a book years called The Guardians of Childhood. There's another movie that was made by a different studio I believe that's also connected to the book series, but not this movie. That would be the animated movie "Epic(2013)" loosely covering the book about the Leafmen(also worth a watch if only for amusement).

As you liked this, i hope you react to Season 1 of "The Sandman". Way more earnest, but great stories and visuals. I think it might be right up your alley!

[@flubber1557]

An underrated movie for sure after launch. I believe it had been released alongside other box office hits that stole the show unfortunately. The way they convey the true meanings of the holidays while keeping it fun and cinematic is a great feat. I think they do it better here than in the grinch remake with jim carrey honestly. That one has a bit too much of a hollywood twist and it ruins the original lesson to be learned from the film. They also do not shy away from making the villain seem like a bad guy. He has such cold lines which is ironic considering youd expect such from a winter themed character like Santa or Jack Frost. This is why dreamworks villains trump Modern disney villains. Look what they are doing to my man scar from the lion king. Enough of the whining tho. Tis christmas season. Is a time for joy and cheer. I wish you both a happy holiday.

[@BellaFalk95]

I love this movie with all my heart.

[@mjmage33]

I have a theory... everyone thinks Jack Frost is just a troublemaker and couldn't be a guardian, but his center turned out to be Fun. I thought maybe Pitch Black the Boogeyman could have been a guardian of Courage but rather than face his fears he was literally consumed and carried away by them (the Nightmares). I have only read a few of the books so I might be missing some nuances.
