[@elliebingo]

But does Rodrick have to say "I'm sorry women" in the new one?? We have to know!

Fun fact: The actor for Greg in the live action trilogy Zachary Gordon is now a voice actor for Genshin Impact, which I find absolutely hilarious

[@specky4153]

As a Genshin player it actually blew my mind that he was actually voice acting in Genshin. His voice actually sounds good for Tighnari ngl.

[@AlphaTargetAlex]

Maybe I’m kinda “WTF” at that tbh.

[@amarolidris4324]

Tbh Rodrick Rules is the only one that I much prefer the live action movie than the source material itself. I think making Rodrick feeling "betrayed" by Greg after all the times they had fun together then seeing them reconcile was actually pretty heartwarming. Not to mention both Devon and Zachary had pretty amazing chemistry hence why Rodrick Rules is my fav in the trilogy and felt it was much better than the book.

[@stormdoesgaming8919]

Nah man, speaking as a longtime Wimpy Kid fan, ALL three of the original live-action movies are better than their respective source materials.

[@patrickstyle24816]

I prefer all of the live action movies over the books(Except for you know what). The changes they make actually makes the plot and character dynamics a lot better.

[@archive6094]

Fun Fact: Originally the creator Jeff Kinney announced a Diary of a Wimpy Kid animated series, but for unknown reasons there was a change of plans to release a new animated movie

[@twilightsquire]

I feel like it would've been better as a series tbh

[@elijahfordsidioticvarietys8770]

I REALLY wish they had gone with the series idea. That makes way more sense.

[@pooppooper9033]

@FreesmartChannel Is he even the screenwriter? I was under the impression that he played a minor role in helping them adapt the books.

[@RedLaundryBasket]

@Freesmart you forgot the important factor of the big guys upstairs making changes according to their standards.

[@9somethingorother837]

I feel like 90% of people would've preferred a show.

[@DrAwe-fi6we]

4:25 It's worth mentioning that Holly didn't actually didn't appear in the books until "The Last Straw", which I presume is the main reason for her exclusion in the animated version Rodrick Rules.

[@91713]

Pretty sure she did.

[@wizardmeats]

@@91713 i think she was only briefly mentioned in the book version of rodrick rules, and then became a semi-recurring character afterwards. might be wrong though

[@BrandonSG13]

She was in Rodrick rules, no? Very minor appearance, but I remember that one part where Greg wanted her to play the mum in his comedy skit about convincing Rowley he was a dog

[@LamestLameOK]

@@BrandonSG13 Yeah. She didn't really become important until The Last Straw. She also didn't interact with Greg at all unlike the Rodrick Rules live action movie.

[@illuminatipoodle4517]

If they do they would be wasting their time

[@cgaming283]

Not if I “persuade” them with a 9mm

[@vanderquakSP]

They are because Jeff Kinney wants that to happen.

[@Madagascar_on_GameCube]

That's alot of movies

[@Jumbalowbumbalow]

Oh no it’s horrifying

[@uniformofsquids1718]

I think the reason people rag on the visuals of these movies aren’t because they’re bad, but because before they came out when whatever production debacle was happening, a test animation/proof of concept came out that looked more reminiscent of the books (as in, characters were kept to specific angles so there was less mouth moving around the face and cursed front facing characters), so when these came out people felt robbed

[@wolfbro0393]

I used to read these books as a kid and to see how far these books have come is amazing to me

Man, he went from hit move Food Fight, to the Krypto island videos, to the dream music video, all the way to an official Disney movie... Yes, he has come a long way.

[@Honorable_Judge_Mental]

Knowing how old they are, they should've done a Diary of a Wimpy Adult, where it's the classic actors doing a little reunion and they're all grown up. Then again it is just a book.

[@d3nny_s3mpai]

The movie could had so much potential but the making time it was made was so short and the lack of trying. They had a chance to make The Long Haul just better with actors that really care about the thing they are doing.

[@Cian66]

Ok real talk, how many times has Greg been held back for him to still be in school after 17 books?

[@GuyWithNoNickName]

It’s the same kinda time magic used for Phineas and Ferb, there’s “104 days of Summer Vacation”, yet over 200 episodes.

A new movie to review...every year... for the rest of everybody's lives. I'll probably send a bottle of Jack to your P.O box, considering you'll more than likely need one by the time you're done. And judging based on the time packages take to get to you, it should arrive by "Cabin Fever".

[@MrJPA1973]

You can hear the sheer terror in his voice at 9:49

[@jasonhasenfus6090]

About the whole rowley and Greg not being in the party. I believe that was actually in the original book and Greg only help clean since rodrick threaten to also get Greg in trouble if he didn’t help clean.

[@crowland1129]

That is correct

[@richardperaza5083]

Well that’s kinda true but it was only Greg that was in the basement in the book

[@masteroaks1315]

may we have great happiness that Adam sacrificed his spare time to watch these movies, thank you so much man :)

[@Blazeinone]

2:58 did not expect him to say that almost died choking on my food laughing

[@hankhumble3552]

3:39 I don’t care that this wasn’t in the book. This scene had phenomenal acting and set this relatable stigma for Rodrick that made you respect him more.

[@stormdoesgaming8919]

And it was unironically a great set-piece for the film's main climax.

[@guyonyoutube3850]

For your Holly Hills question, she was introduced in dog days, and the movie version of Rodrick Rules put her in that story

[@stitchlover4381]

And yet she disappeared for the rest of the book series and NEVER showed up again.

Actually I think she made a brief appearance in the last straw, and had a bigger role in dog days.

the reason Holly isnt in the animated rodrick rules is because she plays more of a role in the last straw, and when they made the live action movie they put parts of rodrick rules and last straw together

[@someinternetdude8959]

Greg getting stuck in the basement was actually what happened in the book

[@Rufus_Marlow]

The only reason Holy is not in the movie is because Holy was only in the 3rd book and the Rodrick rules (live action movie) combines the 2ed and 3rd book.

[@bittersweetJADE_]

I haven’t read the second book in a while but I do believe they do stay in the basement the whole night

The original Diary of a Wimpy Kid movies are some of my favorite childhood movies. I watched them so much as a kid and loved them a lot. Now these new movies are................. certainly movies. (even that's kind of debatable with how short they are)

[@TheAsianKidYouMetRandomly]

Adam really doesnt care about his sanity does he

[@YourAveragePlayer432]

In the book Greg was stuck in the basement during the party but not with Rowley but they didn’t actually show the party in the book, Rowley didn’t absolutely roast Greg in the book, Holly wasn’t in the RR book she appears in a later book I think or wasn’t important to the story, Frank found the pictures but not in front of the family and the guests, Greg didn’t become the drummer in the book and Greg and Rodrick didn’t make up by talking but by Greg finishing his homework for him after he got embarrassed. This has been your Wimpy Kid lore expert and yes I do have the full collection including the Rowley and movie books GG get reckt lol

[@jtcustoms4297]

The part with Greg locked in the basement and not taken part at the party is like what happens in the books. Also in the book, Frank finds out about the party when he was getting the photos from Thanksgiving. in the end Roderick does go to perform in the talent show.

[@jariussmith6688]

OK, OK accuracy, let's see... in Rodrick rules they focus more on their relationship rather than it being in the background like the book. Some events are swapped around or put together to make the plot run a bit smoother. Greg's betrayal of Rodrick is completely new and I did not see it coming. Holly isn't in the second book but she is in the third, although her role is quite minor so we can expect her in the next movie
