  • Dreamwork... where did it go wrong? I may need to look into why this wasn't as big as it should have been and I'm surprised there's no sequel!

    The thing that makes Jamie realize Jack is there is that the snowflake falls on his nose. The saying is “Jack Frost nipping at your nose”, which refers to the severe cold making your nose cold and red

    I love this movie so dearly, specially Jack Frost. In the books, he is said to be the guardian of the lost as well, specially since he was inspired by Peter Pan. The author once said “Unlike Pan, Jack Frost knows there is an end to childhood, he knows that heartbreak and hurt are coming. But he will use memory as a weapon to keep the darkness at bay”. It so powerful ♥️
    Ps:
    Jack Frost - Fun
    Easter Bunny - Hope
    Santa Claus - Wonder
    Sandy - Dreams
    Tooth Fairy - Memory

    There is actually a book series that this movie is inspire by. Santa was born a Russian Cossack, the Easter bunny is an Alien Bunny Warrior/Time Lord, Tooth Fairy is a magical hybrid, while Sandman piloted shooting stars to grant wishes. And Pitch did have a family, his daughter is MOTHER-FREAKING-NATURE!

    I adore this movie. Sandman was also my favorite but it makes sense he would be target number one. Dreams help us process information, even when we can't remember them, sleeping and healthy dream cycles are very important to our mental health. If all the kids only got nightmares, the amount of stress that puts on our minds is massive. Then the things they look forward to not happening (easter eggs, tooth fairy not coming) hit them harder.

      I had a crossover idea for this one and HTTYD. Toothless had become the moon when he passed, and Jack's family was descended from Hiccup's. That's why Jack was chosen. Toothless/The Moon was waiting for someone with a similar spark of fun as his rider to guard the children.
      Forgot to add, Jamie is part of the same family line. Jack's sister grew up and had a family, and Jamie is descended from her.

      I've always seen him more as 'fear'- he protects people with a healthy amount of fear, but somewhere along the way he got it twisted and started to give and take more and more fear, becoming the boogeyman; not as a guardian of Halloween, but as a guardian of (a healthy amount of) fear ^~^

    Not finished with the reaction yet but to answer your question, basically DreamWorks does a shit job at marketing. Try and look at the trailers of not only this movie, but pretty much every movie they made: they make them look like all the same movie, with the same jokes and focus WAY TOO MUCH on saying "Remember all these famous A+++ actors you love?? They're in the movie!!! Who cares about you trying to figure out the plot, WE HAVE JOKES AND HUGH JACKMAN!"
    This, mixed with other factors like the up and down quality of DreamWorks movies (Pixar makes some vague trailers as well but at least they have the reputation that their weakest movie is still a good movie) doesn't help movies like this or Megamind to gain popularity, so they end up becoming cult classics.

    I love this movie. It is so whimsical and tightly written, and the characters are so heartbreakingly relatable.
    I love the theory that Jamie is Jack's sister's descendant. They look similar, and live near the same pond, and I think it adds an extra special touch that the legacy of Jack's sacrifice lives on, and even helped save the world.

    I watched this movie as a child and it is now forever etched into my soul. It sucks that this film is as underrated and forgotten as it is. I love all the characters so much, the story is relatable and compelling, the music is enrapturing, I could go on and on about how much I love this movie.

    This movie was adorable, I love it so much. I think of it the same way I think of Megamind. Megamind was amazing and it's a shame it didn't get the recognition Despicable Me did buuuuttttt if it did, there would be the possibility of it getting shitty sequels and the franchise being, imo ruined. But I love that Megamind and Rise of the Guardians are getting at least some of the praise and recognition they deserve right now.
    Also, totally watch Guardians of Ga'Hoole! It's not a perfect story but it's so beautifully animated and cute and seriously beautifully animated like it had no right to look that good being released in 2010. I watched it a little while ago after trying to figure out where this one Owl City song was from and it was from the soundtrack of that movie. I love it so so much.

    There are theories that the little boy Jamie is actually a descandent of Jack's sister. You can see Jamie and his little sister has some similar features of Jack's little sister's face, but then again it could just be the creators reusing the design for budget purposes.
    But this theory has added so much more heartwarming depth of Jack and Jamie's friendship. Jamie is basically a clone of Jack's sister and still looked after his family even after life :)

    I'm so happy to see this especially since I recently became OBSESSED with this movie again. There's a book series which this movie is inspired by which I'm hoping to get, and I'm so upset there's no sequel they could've done so much, maybe looked into the backstories of the other Guardians or got a redemption arc for Pitch or something, I think that'd be cool to explore
    And god the dynamics of the characters all work so well, they're all so unique and fun including Pitch and his energeticness, I don't think I'll ever get over this amazing masterpiece
    Also there is even more angst in the books, Pitch was originally a good guy but was manipulated by hearing his daughter's voice, like how Jack heard his sister's voice, and he became corrupted
    North was born an orphan in Russia, his village was in danger by Pitch so he went to try and save it
    Tooth's only alive relative left is her sister, the others are dead
    And Bunny fled to Earth after becoming the last of his kind, the last Pooka left because Pitch killed his entire race

    William Joyce made a picture book with absolutely gorgeous art titled The Man In The Moon. He also made the book series of this titled The Guardians Of Childhood. There's 5 in total, with Jack being on the final book.
    I'm guessing Jack died when he was about 16.
    He DID try to attack Pitch, but they didn't see that. They just knew he went to take the girl home, then he comes back late and he has his teeth, but no Baby Tooth with him.

    what sucks is that, Pitch could have had a purpose. He could have been the person that gives you the right about of fear or anxiety about a situation. Of course, this could explains social anxiety or irrational fears, where his job is to try to relieve it. but no, he thought his only purpose was just fear. just. fear. and in that regard, he was never able to do what he was meant to do.
