DRINK WATER!!!
Hey Billy I finally got in one of your lives I have been trying for so long and I just wanted to say hi and see if you respond and notice me
Hey Billy I finally got in one of your lives
#bingers Suzume as your first anime film. It got nominated for the 2024 golden globe award and u should see why.
#Bingers Dr Strange 2, Life Size and Life Size 2, Saw 6, The Croods and The Croods 2 and The Addams Family and The Addams Family Values and Brother Bear 2 and Mulan 2 and Beetlejuice Edward Scissorshands, Party Central and Monsters at Work, Sharpay Fabulous Adventure and Kronk New Groove and Beetlejuice, Disney Descendants: The Royal Wedding
#bingers if you love Dreamworks I highly recommend The Prince Of Egypt, Spirit: Stallion Of The Cimarron and The Road To El Dorado🫶🏻🌟
This film is literally the animated version of The Avengers, except it features holiday icons like Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, Sandman, working together to stop an evil spirit. It's just so awesome! Who wouldn't love a film like that? It really deserved better.
Basically yea
Montana
It was my favorite movie as a kid
The avengers really ruined media huh
Add in that two actors have been in superhero movies and it works. Yes Chris Pine’s DC character didnt have superpowers but he did sleep with wonderwoman so not to bad for a dc character.
Jack's sister was 300 years ago when he died, presumably she lived that day. the theory that the kids are her descendants is an interesting one though!
I also love that each of the guardians represents a different "center" Santa is wonder, Toothiana is memories, Bunny is hope, Sandy is Dreams, and Jack is fun. Even Pitch is fear.
my all time favourite fanfiction has that descendant plotline so I almost screamed when he just said it hahaha
@@skyekessels6692I thought the main kid was his ancestor.
They were very alike
Ever read the original books that the movie was based on.
@@skyekessels6692what fic? Is it on ao3?
@@Aurora-Welch i always hear they were very disimilar from the movie and didnt wanna ruin the movie for myself because I love it so much. Same reason I havent read HTTYD
"Then ı'm gonna ignore you but you must be used to that by now"
One of the most disrespectful lines Dreamworks has ever done.
Very disrespectful
There are a lot of DreamWorks movies that were underrated. This movie slipped under the radar heavily
Heavily is an understatement
@@BillyBinges I think there was some MASSIVE blockbuster that was highly anticipated that came out at the same time. It was a victim of bad timing more than anything else.
@@AriyaLaunaI didn't check the dates, but I Think it might've been one of the James Bond movies (Skyfall?) because I remember seeing them both in the theater and it Seems it was around the same time.
I hadn't heard of this movie when I went to see it. I just needed to get out for a while, so this was playing at an early matinee. I loved it.
By then, it was in the small theater and there was only one other person in the theater.
The memories are strong with this one because I remember I kept laughing at the grumpy elf, out loud, really laughing; and the other dude who was sitting two rows ahead of me started laughing, too.
And we laughed at all the funny parts after that. Then walked out smiling.
I'll bet that guy is a fan of this movie now, too. At least, I hope he remained one.
I did
No it didn't.
I love how when they are all collecting teeth they include the mouse, I’m Mexican and I wasn’t told there was a tooth fairy I was told there was a tooth mouse 😅 so it’s cool seeing them incorporate other beliefs 💕
In France as well, it’s the little mouse “La Petite Souris” who gets your tooth 😂😂
Apparently that's the case in Vietnam too. They throw their teeth on roof and parents tell them if the mice don't take it they won't grow back.
@clrmtsml in the movie they focused on the little mouse being french, you can hear french music in the background
My mom is Argentinian and same, she told me about the little tooth mouse
I was wondering if someone else caught that 🇲🇽
A Russian santa, Aussie Easter bunny, a mute? Literally what more is needed 💀
The big difference between Pitch & Jack is Jack wants to be seen; Pitch only cares to be seen because he wants to be feared. Which is why it makes so much sense that a guardian whose center is fun is what it takes to help defeat him.
No, he wants to be seen too, he hates being invisible and makes that very clear. He wants to be feared because he can't be respected in the same way that the spirits with the nice and fluffy feel-good type centres can be easily, so he went for fear instead -- plus, he lives off of it. It gives him power and, the way the movie makes it seem, it seems to me he can't even be seen /without/ being feared, so he doesn't even have a choice in that. And before you say anything, for some reason, Jamie, who at that point still supposedly believes in Pitch, walks through Pitch having stopped being afraid of him, which is why I made that observation. So, unless it was a movie making error - which makes sense because the movie is riddled with errors -, Pitch has been royally screwed over by the universe and had no actual choice in the matter.
@js66613 It seems like they get their centers after they decide who they are though. Dark doesn't have to equal fear, his center could have been comfort. The dark of a warren of rabbits cuddling for protection, the dark of a rainy day and dimmed lights, reading a book you've been putting off, the dark of cuddling under the blankets and knowing tomorrow is the start of a threeday weekend. Jack was misunderstood and potentially destructive too, but it didn't stop hin from having morality and a "feel-good" type center.
@lulolie Dark doesn't have to equal fear, but fear is what Pitch wanted. At the end, after he was defeated, he specifically says "You will fear me!" He WANTS the fear. It's the reason he wants to be seen.
making santa a tattooed slavic swordsman was the best character choice they could have made ngl
I... don't exactly want to be represented by a guy going through a midlife crisis, but sure, you do you.
Yep loved this version of santa
This movie is actually an adaptation of the book series"The Guardians of Childhood" by William Joyce and is actually set in the future of the book series. Definitely an underrated movie though i think during the time people were feeling Chris Pine overload as he had been in the Star Trek Movie and other big movies around the same time as being Jack Frost in this movie and that the book series wasnt well known at the time.
20:05 hey Billy you’re not far off the money. One prevalent theory is that the kids are descendants of Jack’s sister, who he gave his life for. Would be poignant.
Another theory I remember hearing is that Baby Tooth is Jack’s sister reincarnated
My sister was just ice skating last week, she felt tired but she thought "one last round can't hurt"... well it hurt 😅
She fell and ended up with a pulled knee (xray couldn't even see if it's broken from the swelling) and both her wrists broken.
So just take care Billy if you do end up going ice skating.
Well… I did not make it this year. So I’ll be mindful for next year
@@BillyBinges#bingers Billy !!! React to Monster high boo york boo york and trolls band together it's trolls 3 !!!
@@BillyBingesMaybe look around your city for an indoor ice rink. I live outside of LA, in The Valley, and we had a roller skating rink (the one I knew about was in the Central Valley) And two ice skating rinks (I had a friend that went to one in the East Valley and another friend that went to one in the West Valley).
So, there may be one nearby
Jude Freaking Law as pitch black 🔥
I saw this movie in theaters with my stepdad, and we were the only people there. I love this movie so much! Sucks that it didn't perform well and not that many people know of it):
My theater was full , so I wash shocked it did poorly
It was overshadowed by despicable me unfortunately 😢
I see Billy wanted to finally appreciate his favorite binger and give me a gift this Christmas with this reaction, because I've commented about this movie for like the past 2 years LOL! Anyways bingers give it up for ya boy and leave a like please and if you haven't subscribe because you know he makes you smile when you watch a video! 💙
I addressed that it has been requested for years 😂 but appreciate you!
@@BillyBingesfirst time asking for this it's time for (the road to El Dorado
@@BillyBinges it’s time for “over the hedge”
I love this movie, it combines folklore and cultural traditions for the guardians and it’s amazing
This is definitely one of the most underrated DreamWorks films ever. I feel like they should make a sequel because it would be cool to see this again and also you know DreamWorks go hard on this equals.
I have been dying to see a sequel to this movie however bc he didn't make much money the creators said that there will never be a sequel to this masterpiece but the movie its self is still so good and I wish that they did had another sequel bc the movie had so much potential 😭😭
@@idk347 ye, and even tho they might not be as gud as an official movie n stuff, fancontent is always a valid option when ur starving for some Rotg/GoC content heheh
One of my favorite movies. Even though it was considered a flop at the time it came out, it was a very well done movie.
idk if im just overanalyzing but i just realized, during the scene where jack was supposed to bring sophie he said "i'll be quick as a bunny" if we think about it, in the hare and the tortoise story, the bunny is quick but got distracted (with a nap) and lost the race,, now jack also got distracted (with his curiosity, desperation and rage) and lost the track of time and couldnt help fight the ambush
Yeah... could've been foreshadowing?
HOLY SHT YES
Rise of The Gaurdians getting the respect and recognition it DESERVES
I’m such a simple human, I saw rise of the guardians and I clicked immediately
Appreciate you!
I had the book series, it was a really fun read when I was a kid. The author was on fire with all of his stories (William Joyce, also illustrated his own books). First he writes 'A Day With Wilbur Robinson' which then gets turned into the 'Meet the Robinsons' movie. Next his 'The Leafmen And The Brave Good Bugs' gets turned into the 'Epic' movie with flipping Beyonce and Colin Farrell. Then his 'The Guardians Of Childhood' series turns into 'Rise of the Guardians'. If that isn't enough, he did the concept art for the first 'Toy Story', helped work on 'A Bugs Life' and 'Robots'. And of course he's also the creator and producer of the kids tv show 'Rolie Polie Olie'. This man gets around.
They have a rise of the guardians books that explain the man in the moon, other characters, and it has so much lore to it. I haven't been able to read it yet but apparently it explains so much more. I wish they would make a second one. This movie was so underrated. It's so good yet hardly anyone knows about it
This is such a sweet movie and I really don't understand why it's so slept on. I did find out that it's actually an adaptation of a book series called "The Guardians of Childhood". That title is so freaking wholesome. I love it!
I did some research on this movie , the tooth fairy is name Toothiana , and the tiny faries are extensions of therself , mini copies of her , and because of that , they all share their emotions but the faries show them more , whish isnwhy they fan and faint when they see jack , lmao
I just figured that was every woman's reaction to meeting Jack lol
You have no idea how often I watch this every single year for the holidays, this is one of my fav animations my sister and I watch ✨💓
Always had the hugest crush on Jack! ❄️✨
😂 I finally found this awesome comment. So did I 🫠
@@MIKEYPOOHBEARJACKSON still up there with the best! 😂
The Santa depicted here was a former Russian bandit before he became Santa Claus.
No doubt his poor sister lived with survivor's guilt for the rest of her life.
Jack may still have relatives out there, even though it's been 300 years.
The books are written by the incredible William Joyce. He even wrote a picture book called The Man In The Moon. It's VERY beautifully illustrated.
The dedication at the end, for Mary Katherine Joyce is William's daughter. She passed away when she was 18 from a brain tumor.
This is an EXTREMELY underrated movie 🍿. Deserves more love.
A lot of people ship Jack and Elsa together, so it's funny you calling them siblings 😂😂
I'd love to see a reaction of Once Upon a Mattress!
I LOVEEEEE Once Upon a Mattress! I love doing the Spanish Panic and me and my mom are always singing the nightingale lullaby when we're joking around lol
@@nunugirlswag109 I love and hate the lullaby. It's so funny, but then it gets stuck in my head and I can't get it out 🤣
I would prefer they were siblings -- although, they'd be born in the wrong times... at the same time, I totally can see them as adoptive siblings, with Jack filling in for Anna.
Best Santa and guardian representations I’ve ever seen :) I wish they made more with this
Rise of the Guardians is based off a long running book series called the Guardians of childhood if I recall. Another fun fact Santa's actual name in the books and movie is Nicholas Saint North and those tattoos of his are based off Russian mob tattoos.
The actual lore of rise of the guardians is convoluted as hell
This is easily in both my favorite holiday movies and just movies in general categories! And it’s multifunction since it works for both Christmas and Easter (even if my instincts immediately think Christmas) 🎅🏻🎄🎁🐣🐇🍫💝
I was so shocked to hear this movie flopped because the animation was beautiful, the voice actors killed it, the story development and character growth is there, the message and lessons in this is so heartwarming, every single joke lands, the bromance between Jack and Bunny is top tier friendship, etc. They easily could have made this a trilogy, have prequels, or even a tv show with the amount of characters and MILLENNIUMS of history background knowledge on all the characters.
The book series that this is based off of is so weirdly interesting and you get a lot of backstory to The Man In The Moon and Pitch Black.
I never considered this movie until my son saw it on Netflix and asked to watch it with me. Now it is a holiday staple 5 years strong and we have all the books that this film and characters are loosely based on (GORGEOUS illustrations). I don't think I even remember there being commercials or anything for this film and it is such a shame because it is AMAZING and has such strong lessons for kids (and adults) to take from.
This movie always holds a special place in my heart 😭
Billy- this Santa is weird
Meanwhile I grew up with stories of Santa helping the USA fight in WW2 from my veteran grandfather. So when this movie came out I was like “of course Santa has swords and tattoos that makes complete sense”
Damn your grandfather was passing down LEGENDS
YES!!! This movie and Disney's Hercules have been tied as my favorite animated movie since Rise of the Guardians came out. I've been watching your videos for almost as long as people have been recommending RotG in the comments haha, so it's wonderful to see you finally react to it.
Happy holidays, everyone!
There is a theory that Jamie is an Ancestor and that is why he’s the first person to see Jack
THAT INTRO WAS 🔥
Also like how Jack's power is to bring out the fun in others
THE most underrated I SWEAR. We need a second movie 😅
I really love the magic of DreamWorks rise of the guardians it’s just too bad will never get a sequal because it flopped! I do love all the Jack Frost crossover, though the fans make up, especially the big four and Jack Frost and Elsa!
i LOVE this movie. literally top tier story, animation, dialogue, literally everything. btw it's based on a middle grade book series The Guardians of Childhood, each book going into the backstory of each guardian before they became guardians. Santa was a misfit thief that stole things and fought things with his double swords, but has a heart for children and learned to see the wonder in the world through their eyes. it's no wonder he believed in Jack Frost from the beginning, be probably empathized with his troublemaking attitude.
also! during the height of the RotG fandom, there was a theory that Jamie and Sophie are descendants of Jack's little sister, due to the similar facial features.
I gasped out loud when I saw this video i my subscriptions feed. So glad to see you watch my all time favorite animated movie!! The animation in this is still insanely gorgeous more than a decade later and full of so many fantastic little details (I love how the guardians all get a little desaturated when the belief is gone but they literally brighten up when their powers return). There's also a book series, and it's very different from the movie, but it also goes into Pitch's backstory and it's very sad actually 😢
The sad part about pitch they dont tell you in the movies is that pitch was once a hero.
Love this movie. It's so underrated. So happy you chose to watch it.
Quick question. Did you see the 'In Credit' Scene'?
Wait… I don’t remember! I filmed this 3 months ago 😂 ima go watch now though
I think a couple hundred years past after Jack frosts rose from the ice. If that’s correct the family he knew would already be dead, if they were alive I think Jack frosts would stay close to them but the story took a whole different route so i just assume his family passed
Pitch is my favorite Non Disney Villain. The ending could have been so much better though. Basically, every problem that Jack had, that was unfair, they just passed it on to Pitch and said "Not our problem". They could have made it better by giving him Halloween and making him an official Guardian of holiday, and that would have fixed everything.
I absolutely love this movie, the action is so sick, the message is great and all the characters really bring something different that doesn’t feel reused from other media.
Billy I’m begging you to watch Klaus you’ll love the sass from this main character #Bingers
Also like his power comes from in him but his staff helps him like focus it or is like a Conduit for his power but it's apart of him like when it gets snapped he feels it cause it part of him in a way
Fun fact: Pitch Black is voiced by Jude Law
Loving this intro 😊
Thanking it’s the 2024 version!
I love this movie. I was recommending it to a coworker earlier this week. It's just so good. I'm happy you finally got to it, Billy.
This movie is so good ! The combination of a secret world of festivities (like Nightmare before Christmas, but less "Tim Burtony"), the adventure, the dark threat, the team fighting agaist evil and finding new meaning. It's a very good one. And what a fierce Easter Bunny 😅 This one, The chronicles of Narnia and 'Klaus' might be my favourite Christmas movies.
So I think this was the only movie in 2012 that I saw in theaters other than Captain America. Saw it like 5 times. It's been SO slept on until more recently.
The fight scenes in this movie have you so gassed, Billy, and I'm here for it!! "There go Billy's head! There he go!"😂😂 😭😭
I'm 17, and no joke... this movie is in the top 5 for my favorite movies and i have no shame. jack frost was my biggest crush and i honestly really wanted him to end up with tooth fairy.
This Movie made my year when it was released in 2012.
Jack Frost, Bunny, Tooth, North and Sandman will forever be so Iconic to me
My question is.. Why didn't they make a sequel?
Now I need you to watch ‘Klaus’ another animated Christmas movie!! What’s unique abt it is that it’s completely 2D (think classic cartoon animation) but LOOKS 3D (think every Disney/Pixar film now). They created a whole new animation mechanism to achieve the look. Pretty mind blowing when you watch from that perspective
Great reaction, Billy! Thanks for sharing with us 😁
My pleasure!!
If it was done justice, this movie would have had benefitted from a sequel. What a fun universe
I Watch this movie every year it’s one of my favorites. It’s like nobody heard of it.
*“That’s hard” counter: 18* times lmaooo
I literally rewatched it just to keep track hahah loved the reaction
Santa = wonder, creativity
Bunny = hope, Faith
Tooth fairy = memory and innocence
Jack = fun, joy and inner light
Sandman dreams and the will to presue them
All things that a child holds dear but we lose as we grow
The only thing that I found in the movie a bit less logical is that the kids who believe those creatures for years suddenly stopped believing after 1 day of not seeing them/effect
Santa is wonder, Bunny is hope, Tooth is memories, Sandman is Dreams and Jack is Fun. They all have one main thing at the centre, and those are canonically it, there's no need to add to that. Plus... North's "creativity" seems a bit dubious considering he stubbornly sticks to the same colour scheme. Also, no way is the Tooth Fairy "innocence" personified.
@@HarmonyOC Yup, and also, why do the adults not believe considering it's gotta be weird if like your kid gets one extra gift you have idea whence it came from every year. Does no one question that? Ever?
@@js66613 good question
I have been ice skating and to me its waaay more frightening than learning how to Roller Skate for the first time. It hurts more when you fall especially with the cold temperature but once you get the hang of it you'll be fine
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this movie! I saw this movie in theaters with my book club in middle school after we read one of the books. I watch it multiple times a year, because I made a little tradition/superstition with this movie. Starting in middle school, I would watch this movie every time it was supposed to snow or we would get a snow day. One time, I watched it every day for almost 2 weeks! Super underrated!
Unsurprising answer to question about cold:
I live in Russia. We both love and hate our winters. They're beautiful, especially in Siberia (where I live), but sometimes you wish you were living somewhere sub-tropical😅
I LOVE THIS MOVIE
Jude Law played Pitch
Hugh Jackman played Easter Bunny
Alec Baldwin played Santa
Isla Fisher played Tooth Fairy
Chris Pine played Jack Frost
I see that intro Billy. The videos are slowly getting upgrades and I'm here for it
OMG I'm so happy that he reacted to this movie, its one of my favourites❤😂
Billy and Mel be DROPPIN the videos lately! Love ya Billy and always great choices in movies and commentary that makes it even better!
I found your channel years ago from your Pentatonix reactions. I watch A LOT of different reactors and you are BY FAR my favorite and most entertaining, imo. I love the movies you choose, your mostly open mindedness to them lol and my absolute favorite thing is your sense of humor and just how charismatic you are. I love a good spelling bee and the fact that you always have your own ridiculous names for characters which always makes me laugh. All that to say, thank you for what you do as I’m sure there are days it’s not easy. Please know you bring so much joy to so many of us! Wishing you and your baby girl a very a happy holiday❤
Your animated opening is awesome! Also, I don't know if I was just really excited about the movie, but I liked the snow fade ins ❤
I will never get bored of your videos, Billy!
You make me laugh every single time and your channel is a go-to, especially if i'm down, cause i just know i'll laugh in a second. Thank you and keep doing you!
Hi Billy! I’m born and raised in northern Sweden (in line with northern Canada for reference), and normal winter temperatures here avarage around -15 to -30C (5 to -22F). It would be a lot colder, but there’s a warm water stream coming from the gulf of Mexico that runs by the Norwegian coast that make winters easier to deal with lol. The issue for me is rarely the cold but the darkness. We just had our darkest day of the year and here the sun rose at 10am and then went down again at 1pm, and it’s been cloudy so we didn’t even get to see the damn thing. Happy holidays to you!
Oh my goodness!! So excited that you ended up reacting to this movie! I haven’t watched it yet, just about to, cannot wait!!!
Yay I’ve been hoping for this video since the first of Billy’s I ever watched. I think I even suggested it a long time ago one of the best unsung movies out there.
I LOVE this movie so much and totally agree it is so underrated!! I’ve made so many of my friends watch this lol I have it on dvd and do watch it every year. Sometimes a couple times even cos you can definitely use this as a winter and spring movie imo. I love the message and design of the characters. I’m so glad you watched and enjoyed this one!!❤
This is one of my favourite films and I feel like so few people seem to know about it, so I'm so glad you watched it and happy you enjoyed it so much! It's awesome and carries so many brilliant messages ☺
I feel like you would LOVE Legend of the guardians: The owls of Ga'Hoole. The storyline and animation is SO GOOD!!!
I love this movie so much. The books are great also! Though this is technically more of an Easter movie than Christmas lol
I love the DreamWorks movies you on right now😂 I think you the next DreamWorks movie you should react to is KUNG FU PANDA!
#BINGERS
I love the new intro!!! Love your reactions always, Mr. BillyBinges! Keep spreading love and drink your water!
So happy you reacted to this, highly underrated for such a fun and unique movie. Glad you liked it, have a great holidays!!
Went to the theater and it's a once a yearer for me ❤❤❤
Still hoping they do a sequel one day. Honestly...Dreamworks puts out consistently great animation with out there concepts and I love them for that. Like yeah this is based of a book series, but DreamWorks commits to the quality and concepts
i love this movie so much. i used to watch it so much growing up and it’s such a nostalgic film for me ❤
Billy I love how much fun you have watching these movies!! It brings me so much joy
ONG SO EXCITED YOURE DOING THIS ONE
Yo this new opening is HARD. Thank you to your animator/artist
It has always amazed me that those kids got a snow day with the pathetic amount of snow on the ground, you can still see the grass in most places!
But seriously i love this movie and it is so underrated. The animation is gorgeous and i love how fleshed out each of the characters are, especially the Russian santa. The humor is top notch too
okaaaaaay new intro!!! I love it! trying to stay hydrated, got me some covid for Christmas 🥲
The new into looks awesome Billy! Love it.
ayy I love this movie I'm glad your reacting to it
I’m loving this intro❤
I love this film so much! Most movie reviewers can be boring sometimes but I like how you put so much detail and genuine emotion in reviewing these movies. Great job! 👏
Never been ice skating- I have really bad balance when things are slippery- have to be really careful in the winter and even just the rain. Slipping over and dislocating something happens, so figured for the best just to never do it! Love watching people on the ice, though 😊
I remember when promo for this was coming out when it was about to be in theaters and when it was in theaters. But I thought I wouldn’t care for it so I never went to see it. My first time seeing it was maybe a year ago or earlier this year don’t remember exactly. It’s such a good movie, I’m surprised I didn’t go see it when it was in theaters. From what I can remember right now I don’t think I ever knew the backstory to Jack Frost besides he has ice powers and a stick or something. Would love to see you watch A Boy Named Christmas. It’s such a great movie! Love the videos! You do an amazing job! #bingers
