A side-by-side, shot-for-shot comparison between the 1970 television special and the 2008 3D animated adaption of Dr. Seuss' Horton Hears a Who!
This video is intended to illustrate the unique vision of filmmakers and the variety of choices possible when adapting the same book.
the 2008 film didn't have to be so dramatic and epic, but I am so glad it was
so am I
Same here, it wouldn't have been as good if it wasn't
Chuck Jones did better in the 70s.
ikr
I’m just waiting for Brian grazer to respond to my letter with my live action Horton pitch staring Dwayne Johnson as Horton and Kevin hart as mcdod
This has to be one of , if not, the better remakes of a Dr. Seuss book
Green Eggs and Ham:Am i a joke to you?
Lorax: You greedy dirtbag
... Hum nolstagia critic
At least for a movie yeah
I prefer a thousand times that of 1970, I mean it
The score had no right to be as spectacular as it was for Blue Sky’s version. One of John Lowell’s best scores, I feel it’s so overlooked.
Blue Sky's had a film in 2005, Robots.
John Powell always cooks up some fire scores. 🔥😎🍷🗿
Who else here didn’t know about the 1970’s version
Me
I prefer the 1970s version a thousand times
Me
I DID!!!
Who else didnt know about the 2008 version
4:45 I also love the depth given to Rudy (Kangaroo's son) in the 2008 version, and how it follows the film's lesson:"A person's a person, no matter how small."
And it shows that just because he's a kid, doesn't mean he has to live under his mom's shadow and can stand up for himself by making his own decisions.🐘🔭📢
OBS.: Funnily the two sons are the ones that end up saving the whos, Jojo does it by making enough noise to be heard and Rudy by catching the clover before it's destroyed.
What if, Netflix will do a new adaption of this story?
When you care about attention to detail and realistic stuff, 2008 is the one for you
So...anime references?
I love it!
no kidding einstein
who you are calling Einstein?!
reese soulant no
I like both versions. The main difference between the original and remake are the characters. In the original Whoville is run by a scientist named Dr. Whovey. In the remake Whoville actually has a mayor. Not the same mayor as the one in the 2000 Grinch movie. In the original Jo-Jo is just a small boy who who was playing with a yo-yo. Jo-Jo in the remake is a goth teen and the mayor's son. If I have to pick a favorite it would be the 2008 movie. Because we get to know more of the characters, (I especially like Jo-Jo in the remake.) And they don't break into song all the time.
There was a mayor in the book.
what's interesting about the story of this movie is, it's the best example of our existence as a whole... we're like the WHO, and we thought we're the only one existed but we never know that our universe as we believe is just a mere speck of dust to something that is bigger, like Horton's
Tell me why the mayor is the only one that looks like a human in WhoVille
In that version the mayor are substitucted by a doctor
I honestly think Blue Sky's whos (and Whoville) look better than Illumination's whos.
Yep, I agree
Tbh Blue sky's interpretations of the Who's look like actual ones, but Illumination's ones tho...
@@LazyOldFusspot_3428 it does seem kinda weird when you look back at the two; then again Grinch Whos and Horton Whos seem to be very different in origin since the beginning, when you look back at the books. Like, for example: the Grinch Whoville was originally small, both the Book and Chuck Jones Adaptation, whereas the Horton Whoville is bigger by comparison. Because of this, each adaptation of the Grinch keeps getting bigger to make up for the fact that the original was very small, and tries to connect to the Horton one. Unfortunately, Grinch Whoville and Horton Whoville will still be two different towns, no matter how hard they try.
Did you Chris Melendandri was the head of 20th Century Fox Animation and Blue Sky Studios and produced this film before starting Despicable Me and Illumination other projects.
Because illumination is kinda trash lowball cg animation minions is awful
Fun fact: A lot of the animation of the Whos playing the instruments in the “WE ARE HERE” scene was recycled from the scene from How the Grinch stole Christmas with the who children making noise on Christmas morning.
Disney-I'm only recycling the Animations!!!
Chuck Jones-Hold my beer!!!!!!
Ik
I would like to see side by side comparisons of Godzilla, The Wolf Man, The Phantom Of The Opera, The Witches and The BFG.
The BFG is coming soon.
The Godzilla movie's aren't side-by-side able, every reboot is a very different story.
I've been working with Phantom of the Opera for a while, there are a ton of adaptations and I've had trouble whittling them down.
The Witches is a very likely side by side once the new one comes out.
I looked at doing The Wolf Man a while ago but forgot why I didn't move forward with it. I am working on a Dracula one.
@@MattSkuta what about Ben-Hur, West Side Story, The Mummy and Exodus Gods and Kings?
How about the intro for The Addams family?
@@MattSkuta Hey, what about "Adventures of Tintin", "Asterix", "Dumbo", "Winnie the Pooh", " Around the World in 80 Days", "Journey to The Center of the Earth", " The Lost World" and "Christmas Carol"?!!!!
@@kacmac2340and Peter pan.
The older one is mesmerising to look at with the colour palettes and how the characters are staged. Almost like a weird trip.
the remake has always been one of my favorite movies even though ive completely forgotten about it
If they have a mayor
Then who’s the president
You know what,I was asking the same question in my mind
They probably don't have one, after all, it is implied that the entire speck is Whoville, so their world would only have that one town, technically making the mayor the king of the world but that's digging too deep.
*O B A M A*
Prime minister?
Manie Estrada the chairman in the 2008 version
The fact that i literally watched this movie EVERYDAY like when the movie went off I would watch it again and again and again. That’s why i am glad to be a part of *j o j o* / Horton hear a who CZcams
did´t know there was a previous film!
now you know
Yeah it was a short that came on after the grinch credits from the VHS
Sir HighRoller that's a long short
I forgot about the recent one, even though that’s the one I remembered seeing over the older one.
I like 2008 better bc it’s like looking in the future about the characters.
I remembered both
I remember both of them
Oh hello
Fun fact, the mountain that Horton chases Vlad on (2008) is the mountain of the grinch as a easter egg.
Jim Carrey played as the Grinch
@@ritselabuan6513and the mask, the riddler, count olaf, Bruce almighty, Ebenezer scrooge, Lloyd Christmas, tim Carter, dick Harbert, and dr eggman.
I’m so glad blue-sky gave Dr. Suess the treatment it deserves. None of that low-budget crap you get from illumination, Blue Sky really gave it their all with this one. And it will always have a place in my heart as one if my favorite animated movies, just because of the attention to detail and comedic moments.
And yes, I thought the anime joke was funny.
I kinda wish THEY got to make more Dr. Seuss movies, instead of Illumination.
true!
In my opinion these both were very amazing and epic 👌👍 :3
I like when Horton's having fun & enjoying life.
Jojo in 1970: Yopp
Jojo in 2008: DOOOOOOOOOOOON'T!
How about the Lorax in both versions?
I would say that this movie deserves a reboot but it's already perfect
Animated or Live-Action?
@@kacmac2340live action.
I Like The Both Movies, But My Nostalgic That I Watch Is The 2008 One, I Have This On DVD
What if, Dustin Hoffman narrated this story on VHS?
When I saw the thumbnail for a second I thought: *Since when does Horton have emo pink hair covering his right eye?*
Oh my god I can’t unsee it now 😩
What thumbnail?
Now that I see it, it’s impossible for me to unsee that illusion
I never knew how similar these are two movies are
They are the same thing 2008 is the CGI remake
They’re based on the same book
@@armyshope XD
@@frostbitetheannunakiiceind6574 oh wait I realize just now it's a joke
Thank you for doing this film comparison. I was waiting for something like this to happen a few years later.
I loved how there’s several references to the original special
Wow in the original We Are Here scene, they reused some animations from the Grinch’s Noise Noise Noise Fantasy.
Yeah if you pay attention, there's a lot of this in classic, 2D animation cinema. It's called Rotoscoping. It's a tactic that they employ to save both time and money because the act of animation is so tedious and time consuming.
@@ghostthad9155
I see the same thing was done with the Disney Robin Hood and the Jungle Book
@@prestonendresmovies Yeah exactly. The dance scenes. It's a cool concept
Did someone knows Another non-disney movies, were are similar?
Ah, both absolute childhood movies! 😍
Jim Carrey did the Grinch.
who else was -38 years old when horton of the 70s happened, and who else was 8 years old when we saw horton from 2008
I love the Mountain Chase theme and scene
The moyor look so much different
Hello guys im from italy i got watched 2008 but i watch it in 2020 im the child at 8 years old goodbye!
The kangaroo was the OG Karen 😂
Yup
I prefer the 70s Horton I remember watching it alot when I was younger it just looks more topsy turvy and has brighter colors also I love the traditional animation compared to the cgi not saying the cg looks bad because they did a really good job making it look like the original
I liked how gentle horton was in the 70s version unlike the 2008 version which he was nothing like in the book.
@@prayingkabutops1392 horton was never crazy,it was an error adding this trait,perhaps i like the movie
@@davifernandopereiraborges5168 still like the remake tho
@@prayingkabutops1392 Chuck Jones did with Grinch.
Jim carrey, my actor of my infance

This is one of the better Dr. Seuss adaptations
How The Grinch Stole Christmas, The Cat in the Hat, The Lorax and Green Eggs and Ham?
@@brianodonnell4496 L O L... Low-budget films, which mostly disrespect the reviews and stories of Dr. Seuss (Lorax) and in turn use an actor to serve as a distraction in the film "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" (2000) & "The Cat in the Hat" (2003)
@jorginhogameplays5algumacoisa Illumination had the Grinch and Warner Bros. will have the Cat in the Hat, before at February 23, 2024.
RIP Blue Sky Studios.

Oh not a funny joke!
Madilyn Carrey Well not all jokes are funny, not everyone has the same sense of humor. Some people find it funny and some don’t.
One of the rare few times where I'd say that both movies adaptations are extremely underrated and deserve more love and attention to them.
It reminds me of energizer bunny meets Horton hears a who
Horton Hears a Who (1970) is now owned by Warner Bros. Discovery since Turner Entertainment Co. merged with Time Warner in 1996.
Horton Hears a Who (2008) is now owned by Disney since the acquisition of 21st Century Fox by Disney in 2019.
The property, of which the two films are based off of, is owned by Dr. Seuss Enterprises, L.P.
Which is better, Hans Conried or Jim Carrey(when they did played as the Grinch)?
@@brianodonnell4496 Hans Conried.
@@brianodonnell4496 Hans Conried.
@@sammerz50 1970 one is better?
You mean 20th Century Fox?
Horton Hears a Who (picture book, 1954), Dr Seuss; abridged from Chuck Jones version (1970).
2008 had the anime scene, therefore it wins.
John Powell did the fantastic job for the music score :)
ForestairGD I agree with you though.
I personally like the 2008 version better.
SAME because JoJo isn't a baby
Same 🙂👌🏽
Same and it is my favorite version ever!
@@MinnieMouse-MickeyMouse_show. in many ways, it had more in common with the book.
me too
I know this might sound like a chore to do and you don’t have to do it if you don’t want to but I’d really like to see a side by side of the Fruits Baskets animes.
Unless they make a feature film, no. The rule for the side-by-sides is they have to include at least one movie.
I LOVED this movie when I was a kid
Which one?
@@mr.banana7223 for me the 70s one
Sir HighRoller I love the 2008 one most!
@@mr.banana7223 the newer one
What about Horton Hears A Who! (1970/1992/2008)?
Did you know that the narrators had been Hans Georg Conried Jr. and Dustin Lee Hoffman and Charles Osgood Wood III?
If we tell something from 1970 it's 50 years ago....
The very film which makes me have a theory on the Grinches True size
Now comparacion of the lorax 1972 vs 2012 pls
The 08’ HHAW is probably the only Dr Seuss movie adaptation of his books that’s actually good
Yeah, and that's an understatement as well. It's actually a really fun movie that the entire family can enjoy.
How about the 70s one?
The Lorax was pretty good too
2:53 the original looks like jellyfish fields
Just a Memer actually these are clover field not jelly fish field.
@@MinnieMouse-MickeyMouse_show. he said it looks like jelly fish fields.
@@jinxyvee I think he meant a clover field.
Bruh,, i didnt even know the 2008 one existed i only knew of the older one
Who else didnt know about the 2008 version
If I could make a suggestion, it’d be The Cat in the Hat (1971/2003). While they have their differences, they also have scenes in common, although some of which are in broad strokes. Here are some examples:
1. The kids looking out the window as it rains, looking bored.
2. Their surprise when the Cat shows up.
3. The Cat offering to show them some fun.
4. The Fish telling the kids that the Cat shouldn’t be there.
5. The Cat holding the Fish in the air (although both versions look different).
6. The initial mess made in the house.
7. The Things entering the picture out of the box.
8. Their subsequent chaos.
9. More and more of a mess is made in the house.
10. Mom is on her way home and everyone begins to panic.
11. The Cat leaves a huge mess...
12. ...but comes back to clean it up via a sweeper-like vehicle.
13. Going out the door just as mom walks in.
14. One last shot of the kids.
15. The Cat walking down the street.
There's another difference. One looks bad.
i can see the difference's in both of the movies but i find the new one beater than the old on it shows more character
Y la parte de "estamos aquí" tiene mucha mas tensión en la de 2008.
I don't know about you but at 2:24 the music crescendo fits well with the 2008 scene idk if its just me
You in my head i think there would be a compairison of godzilla 1954, 1998, 2014.
I like the kangoo part
Que belllisimo esta la comparación de las versiones de Horton Hears a Who
Now i need to rewatch it lol 😂
Thanks for preparing this as it revealed to me just how much we forget over the years and decades. I saw the 1970 version when I was about 7 in around 1971-2 in the UK [I think it was on TV here rather than in the cinema - it has never been shown here again as far as I know]. I vaguely remembered Horton seeking out a golfball amongst thousands of golfballs thinking the little world resembled a golfball [I have never read or watched any other Dr Seuss stuff - I never even knew it was a Dr Seuss story until 2008]. I thus watched the 2008 version when it was on Sky TV here in the UK around 2009 and it seemed to me to be completely different to what I had seen in 1970. I don't like modern American animations with all their naff kids-in-America voices etc. trying to be 'cool'. Watching the 1970 version earlier today, I could not remember any details from the 2008 one and still though that the two were very different. Now the CZcams algorithm's AI correctly interpreted my comment about this below the 1970 version and recommended this for me.
Both are very well done-
I can't choose
Rudy you’re so kindhearted
Even though the 2008 one had comedy at it’s peak with a good message in my eyes, I’d say both adaptations are good in their one way
Good horton Hears a who ! 1970 and horton Hears a who ! 2008 movie And Sequnce Two watching 👍
That's history of dr.seuss horton hears a who cartoon
tbh, looking back on it, Horton could've left them in that field. No one would be able to tell which one is the spec flower and it looked like a very untouched place.
He was worried about the mayor which is why he wanted to see if they were safe.
Love both. Great job!
anyone else didnt expect jojo?😃
Have you ever seen the Lorax movies?
I think that would be a harder comparison to do because the parts that were in the book and old cartoon are a very small part of the newer film.
Let it grow!
When I was young, I watched the first Lorax movie. I also saw the trailer for the 3d remake.
I remember not liking the 70’s version, I always liked the 2008 version when I was younger
I thought I had seen the new one, now I realize I’ve only seen the old one and I’m actually happy about it
So glad they made jojo a very attractive emo instead of that bald thing
He used to be cute as a baby too
1970 was good
Could you do a side by side comparison of Dune(The 1984 film and the SyFy miniseries)?
It's in the pipeline but I might wait to finish it until after the new movie comes out.
Ok
The eyes in the 1970 one is horrifying
No it Isn't
To me it doesn’t
Omg they don’t even have an emo jojo in the illumination one I am not happy about that
Yeah he still had to grow up
I like that part of the soundtrack! 2:24
2008 was my favorite of course
Fox had the first Ice Age and Robots in 2005.
YOUR TELLING ME JOJO WAS A LITERAL BABY
The Cat in The Hat / The Cat in The Hat ( 2003) Side by side .
*1971.
Hey What About Green Eggs & Ham (1973/2019)
Was there, a new adaption of "The Cat in the Hat"?
Bish jojo he looking like simba from the lion king . Also why is jojo a baby in th e top
1:46 The mountain chase soundtrack has to be the best one out of the Horton 2008
Music:John Powell(2008)
It would be like big characters like the cat from turning red best from Maggie and the frochus beast Horton from Horton hears a who alpha from avatar the last airbinder & insectasorus from monsters vs ailens
It would be energizer Bunny the movie from 1999 2006 2017 2021
very great and you did a fantastic job
I miei genitori erano appena nati e io vedevo ortone
Horton hears a who from 2008 looks like it was made by Illumination Entertainment
I have the DVD
Старые мультики душевные, сделаны с теплом в сердце)))
2008 version is better for me
I agree
Me too, it had some better funny moments than the original
The 2008 one is very well made in Ice Age style. The film was designed to look magical and like a children's film based on the book
@@laramacdonnell6304 I saw it in the cinema with my class & ate strawberry laces. I so obsessed with it & it'll always be one of my favourites.
