Is it The Grinch with Bendict
Cumberbatch?
Hello Nick, have you seen the movie: Krampus?, if not maybe you’ll consider reacting to it? And on a none Christmas related movie note I think you would enjoy the movie: Quest for Camelot.
Can I guess? Disney’s Christmas Carol, House of Mouse, Rise of the guardians?
Klaus (2019)
@@jonathancruz5932 i was kinda sad that he didn’t get the Oscar.
27:10 Fun fact: That was not scripted! They wanted Jim Carrey to pull it off and have everything go flying off the table for a gag. But Carrey is such a master at it he kept doing it perfectly, so finally, he just went back and knocked everything off by hand, and that's the take they went with.
Yeah I remember hearing about that years ago
To my understanding, that was not only unscripted, but it was done in just one take. And then Carrey just knocked it down.
Really ? I didn't know that
@@a.g.demada5263 Yeah. Everything was supposed to fly off but stayed on the table.l before Carrey knocked everything down
@@p.z.arnott2329 ah ok. It's hard to believe it wasn't in the script
I love how in this version, the whos arent right. Niether is The Grinch. In the original the Whos didnt care about the toys from the start, they were the ones to teach the Grinch, but this version has bothe the whos teaching the Grinch but also the Grinch teaching the Whos.
I think it makes the whole story even better that way. =)
I agree
I consider both their own entities that way.
I've always seen it like this:
Both are a reflection of the times they were made in.
The original was in 1966, back when the focus of Christmas was on family.
Live action is more accurate to how Christmas is now.
Fun Film Fact: Jim Carrey had the CIA train him in enduring torture in order to not feel claustrophobic when in the Grinch costume and prosthetic makeup.
The process to put on the makeup and prosthetics took like 3 hours to put on
Also the contact lenses were extremely uncomfortable and he could only wear them for a few minutes at a time so that they wouldn't damage his eyes.
@@BloodylocksBathory that’s good to know.
No one could have pulled this role off but Jim Carrey. I love this movie so much and Jim Carrey just makes it better.
If I'm not mistaken, those bottles he ate were made of some kind of candy to make it seem like real glass.
Sugar glass
That's amazing!
I'm not sure if that's the same one that breaks with high pitch but the glass looked like it broke pretty easily which is common with sugar glass
I appreciate how this version expanded on the Grinch’s “super strength” and inclination towards inventing. Even as a kiddo he was making and creating and you see traces of that all over his cave.
Tbf, he isn't exactly the same as a Who.
To be honest, I’m not always a fan of Christmas, because I never liked the way my family acts involving Christmas and the presents and all that. But it’s movies like this that show us what Christmas is REALLY about, it makes me love Christmas again.
Not sure if your talking kids or older relatives, but try taking them to a soup kitchen or homeless shelter that provides a holiday meal to the less fortunate. Might just be a wakeup call to rest of family.
I'm 18 and I honestly can't remember a time I ever really cared about presents. Like, for the longest time I've felt "you don't have to get me anything but if you do (since they usually still do) just give me money." I've always really felt like people spelling money on getting me a gift was a waste ever since I was maybe 12 because I'm the kind of person that doesn't need much and doesn't spend much. I do love spending time with my family and watching them enjoy everything though
Random fun fact: The girl that played Cindy is now the lead singer of a rock band called "Pretty Reckless"
Holy fuck I did not know that
Not gonna lie, they're a good band, and her voice is pretty cool to listen to
I saw them live and Taylor literally spent 30 mins making lewd noises into the mic and then did a half hour set 😂 idk what was going on but it was pretty fun, it's hilarious knowing this was the first thing she ever did
I wanted to leave this in the replies but you beat me to it. Pretty neat seeing where she went as an adult.
NO WAY, I know that band
Joshua Ryan Evans, who plays the Kid Grinch, tragically passed away two years after this movie released. He had so much spunk! Respect.
And it’s never a Jim Carrey film without an animal costar. Max is likable!
I didn't know that, that's super sad 🙃 I'll appreciate his scenes even more now
I remember him from the soap opera Passions, where he played A magic doll names Timmy who was a kind of assistant to a witch named Tabitha.
Can I just say how comforting it is to see your eyes light up with glee when you’re enjoying whatever is on screen? Truly is like therapy
Omg, I literally memorized this movie word for word. That’s how much I loved it. Glad you reacted to this Nick 🥳
Me too! 😍🤗🤗🤗🤗😁😁😁😁😁😁
Same here
This is the only Grinch movie afaic 😁
Memorizing word for word any type of movie or Tv show is my talent. And I’m NOT ashamed 😊
Yeah, same here. My family has memorized the whole movie. It's just so amazing!
I like that they got Anthony Hopkins to narrate as a nod to the fact the original cartoon was narrated by Boris Karloff. They’re both classically trained horror actors.
Not only did Mariah Carey 🎙 give us “All I want for Christmas is you” 🎄… she also wrote “Where are you Christmas” and had Faith Hill sing the radio version. 🎅.
There's a very popular theory that his speech about all the Christmas presents he finds in the dump is also an explanation for how he got Max.
Just a little Christmas puppy that someone didn't bother taking back and just up and dumped.
Which begs the question: What Who in their right mind would THROW OUT A PUPPY ON CHRISTMAS?!!!
@@blackheartthedarklord6428 Oh I can think of plenty. And they don't even need to be Whos, either!
@@blackheartthedarklord6428 The Mayor lol
@@anoctoberdaybreak3365 Honestly, I can see that.
I guess Grinch has a bit of heart having a companion and he’s not all lonely. He has Max ❤️❤️❤️
My family would watch this movie all the time during Christmas. One of our favorite Christmas movies.
The Grinch Whoville set was outside on the Universal backlot. The set had been crumbling for years. They never had a chance to take it down with tourists running around. The set was finally demolished last yr during lockdown.
In the scene where he pulls the table cloth off without making anything fall then went over and knocked over it all manually, that wasn't planned, he was supposed to knock over the dishes when he pulled the cloth but surprisingly not a one fell over.
I think it adds to the symbolism too, how the Grinch can do good things, but chooses to do the wrong thing because he feels it's what he's meant to.
@@johnmanzuki8979 that's true as well, I just loved that he walked over with confidence pulls the cloth and not a dish falls so instead of doing it over he kind of threw a fit like the Grench would do and just made it a mess manually
16;12 "Hey honey, our baby's here! He looks just like your boss."
Love how things like this go right over your heads when you're kids
“Oh....Ah....Mmmmm.....That’s it, I’m not going.”
🤣
😂😂
“Inside a snowflake, like the one on your sleeve…”
Bro, I’m in Florida.
😂
😂😁🤣 That was a good one😂😁🤣
I'll do you one better, I'm in Australia it's currently 730 at night and it's still over 30 degree celsius. I've never seen snow.
Yeah unfortunately we're in Heat Misers Turf no way will he let it snow in the south again lol
I grew up in Florida and I remember as a kid I turned to my mom and said, "That towns not real, there is no snow." I was very young lol
My brother passed away recently and THIS was his FAVORITE christmas movie ever! He would quote it word for word. I miss him very much but seeing you react to it and laugh helps me feel better. Thank you for this reaction. Keep up the great work. ❤
I’m so sorry to hear about that! So glad my reaction could help you feel even a little bit better😊
I'm so sorry. Rest in peace to your brother. 😥💔🌈🙏
The nostalgia is strong with this one. I loved this movie since I was a kid, but also got scared of the mail scene as a kid. Anyway, to those who seen Hortan Hears A Who:
It's possible that Whoville is also a speck, which explains how the Grinch could have ended up with the wrong Whos. He might be from the speck that Hortan carries. Grinch looks just like one of those Whos, especially when considering the animated Grinch.
Seriously…the nostalgia is so strong i literally have to take the movie off if I am watching it which I refuse too because of how much it hurts lol.
bro….. you just blew my mind HE COULD BE HORTON WHO
I can't help but love this movie. I know a lot of people don't like it because it's not really that faithful to the original, but Jim really sells it as the Grinch and he is by far the best part of the movie. I know it has it's faults (particularly the whos looking like albert e neuman) but it is still one of y favorites (also, that scene where Jim knocks that stuff off the table was improvised as all the stuff was supposed to fall off when he took off the sheet, but they accidentally didn't fall, so he decided to go and knock them off)
I think what they did with it is amazing, and even better then the original.
37:16 this is my favorite scene in the movie, because it's just Jim Carrey ad libbing his impersonation of the film's director, Ron Howard. Ron liked it so much, he kept it in.
Just thank your stars you've watched this when you're older and as an adult, lol. As much as this is my all time favorite Christmas movie , and it's a beloved Christmas classic, as a kid, at first viewing , scared the absolute crap out of me, haha, that part when the teenagers disturbs the Grinch's home , and Max comes out with that scary head, I cried and had to go home from the theaters. Haha after that first viewing , I came to love the entire movie , but as a kid in that time , I just wasn't ready for that. A jump scare that didn't mean to terrify but DID. lmao but thank God, Jim Carrey's fantastic performance roped me into adoring this movie
I knew I wasn’t the only one that was scared of this movie! My babysitter wanted to put it on for me after school, but I took one look at the cover with the creepy smile and ran out screaming. I couldn’t watch it properly until I was like 11 or 12
I always loved live action films so seeing this brings a smile to my face cause I did feel like the cartoon was a bit short & I love in depth stories & how the characters are who they are. 🌲
I’m glad ur feeling better.
This movie is my favorite. I literally have to watch it every Christmas . It’s such a heartwarming film.
Grinch's version of the who's song is my absolute fave I look forward to everytime I watch this movie
This was wonderfully done by the great Jim Carrey as The Grinch!
I’ve visited the Universal backlot on several occasions and I can see how vibrant and decorative the set is for Whoville.
I can’t believe you’ve never seen the Grinch! It’s my favourite Christmas movie - so good and timeless. Love your videos! Keep up the great work and keep smiling. You brighten my days x
Aw thanks so much! Really appreciate that.
The actor who played the eight-year-old Grinch was 17 year old Josh Ryan Evans.
Unfortunately, this appeared to be his final film role, he continued acting until he died from complications related to a congenital heart condition on August 5, 2002 at the age of 20.
No way! That's so sad.
@@badprincess3453 He died four months before I was born.
Thee was a lot of problems on the set of this movie as Jim Carrey got into arguments with Ron Howard on the make up process which took 4 hours to apply every day, and Carrey threatened to quit production.
I remembered when Jim was reportedly claustrophobic in the Grinch suit, but how he managed to overcome it was with the training of a Navy SEAL.
It wasn't the length of the process itself, they had to get a CIA coach to teach Jim Carrey how to handle pain as the costume caused him extreme discomfort. He sat between takes hitting his thigh, holding a long cigarette holder to not put fire to his costume as he chain-smoked saying "Do it for the children", to at all get through making the movie.
@@haexan Yeah, he literally had torture training.
@@haexan Well look how fantastic it turned out! I'm glad he kept going.
When I see tears in your eyes, it breaks my heart, but when I hear you laugh, it fills my heart with great joy.
Fun Fact. The actress of Cindy is the lead singer of the Band Pretty Reckless and they have some really good music.
Fun fact! Did you know that this movie is narrated by well known actor Anthony Hopkins! Also forgot to mention great job on your reaction!
I like how in this one the grinch ends up saving Cindy Lou, rather then just the sleigh.
I do too, cause it hammers home that’s it not about the presents.
He wasn’t as invested until Cindy was up there.
The lady who played little Cindy Lou Who is none other than the rock legend Taylor Momsen, it's crazy seeing her now knowing THIS is where she started
Ugh, you ALWAYS nail your reactions! Thanks Nick! This was a classic in my house growing up, and it’s awesome to see someone get to experience it for the first time!
excuse me where have you been in 2000- this movie is my favorite Grinch movie I can watch it through the entire year, seriously I can watch it in February and feel the Christmas spirit, it's my favorite holiday I am so happy you are reacting to this, you will not be disappointed :)
Jim Carrey as the Grinch is iconic
Sure is!
Hands down for the King of comedy Jim Carrey. My favorite actor by far.
The 2018 version of the Grinch is amazing! It does explore The Grinch's past more and it explains why he is who he is! And the animators did an incredible job 😊
Not only is this my favorite Jim Carrey film, but this version is my all time favorite Christmas film!
fun fact: when he ripped the table cloth off of the table it was supposed to pull everything off of the table but jim actually did it without messing everything up. that’s why he went back and pushed everything off
Carrey’s character performance in this movie is actually so good and just enjoyable to watch. He really got into the role and made it hilarious.
I can't get enough of this movie! I know every single line, and laugh at the same jokes. The tablecloth trick that wasn't scripped is way too hilarious. And then The Grinch's schedule... it was all from Jim Carrey's mind. They let him do pretty much whatever he wanted 🤣
If The Grinch was real, could he steal the Declaration of Independence, Famous Art and maybe anything in the world? I’m asking because people say he’s a master thief.
You need to watch either Elf or Home Alone next.
he seen both
This movie terrified me as a child so much that I’ve refused to watch it even as an adult, but I guess I can get through a reaction of it for you Nick 😅
You don't look tired! Top notch reaction as always 👍
Thanks!
THANK YOU NICK I LOVED THIS MOVIE WHEN I WAS YOUNGER!!!
I think you would like Klaus! It's on Netflix and it's a wonderful animated movie ^_^
It's pretty new but has easily become a tradition to watch with my parents every year. (The 4 Christmas movies we watch every year are Love Actually, The Holiday, How the Grinch Stole Christmas (this version), and Klaus)
This, Elf, Home Alone 1&2 and Polar Express are my favorite Christmas movies to watch every year.
Jim Carrey as the Grinch is a riot! I always get a good laugh from his performance in this film. While I do enjoy this adaptation to How the Grinch Stole Christmas from time to time, my all time favorite version is the classic, 2D animated film from 1966.🙂
Thanks, Nick! ❄️ Since you love movies displaying the yuletide spirit, I recommend LOVE ACTUALLY (2003), CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT (1945), BAD SANTA (2003), A CHRISTMAS STORY (1983), WHITE CHRISTMAS (1954), THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER (1940), SCROOGE (1951) and most of all... IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE (1946).
I'd love to see you react to beauty and the beast the enchanted Christmas on here, it's my favorite Christmas movie ever!
I'd love it if you watched the Chronicles of Narnia, the lion the witch and the wardrobe! It's way more high fantasy but it takes place during Christmas and has some gorgeous winter weather.
A Christmas story is a fun classic as well!
I’ve seen Narnia many times, love it!
@@nickflix8657 have you considered reacting to Frozen and Frozen 2?
Anthony Hopkins narrated this. Also, the glass he was eating was actually sugar shaped into a bottle. The woman playing Martha is Christine Baranski.
A Christmas Story (1983) and Grumpy Old Men (1993) are my go to holiday movies
ayooo thank you so much for brightening my days! your reactions are incredible, I love to watch your videos even when I do my homework or rest after so much stress, thank you so much bro
I love how you're doing reactions to classics like this!
When the Grinch says "Maybe Christmas doesn't come from a store, maybe it means a little bit more." Then starts sobbing, I ugly cry to that every year.
This movie really is my favorite Christmas movie EVER!
My favorite part is when he says "I'm leaking!" lol. It's such a great movie though!
I knew you were going to react to a dr. Seuss live action movie even though I thought you were going to do the cat in the hat but the grinch was perfect for now since Christmas is coming up and I can’t wait for Christmas
Oh yay so happy to see you react to this it's been one of my absolute favorite Christmas films since it came out 20 years ago. I watch it every year at least 3 times 😳 this and home alone 1 and 2 is a must for me on Christmas
Nick as an avid viewer of your reactions there are two Christmas movies I would love to see you react to. The first is Scrooge from 1970 and Netflix's Klaus. I assure you that these two Christmas films will be worth your while.
When this came out I never saw it because I loved the original animated one so much. I finally caved in when I was I think in high school and I've loved it ever since. It's so quotable, hilarious, and heartfelt. I love that Grinch got depth and a good backstory.
You ever seen Jingle all the way during Christmas? Funny movie along with Jim Carrey's Grinch.
Haven't yet!
@@nickflix8657 Can't wait for that reaction some day.
Another really funny movie 😆
I absolutely love Christmas it’s that time of year where you get to hang out family, and watch so many great movies drinking hot chocolate it’s my favorite part of the year
Honestly, I love Christmas too! I love it for spending time with family, as well as it also celebrating the birth of Christ.
Either way, I loved this adaptation of The Grinch. I never saw Cat In The Hat that came out a few years later, but only because of hearing that it wasn’t all that great. Anyway, Jim Carrey put out a fantastic performance as the title character. I would say that he, along with Steve Carrell, and Robin Williams are some of my favorite comedic actors. I also loved the relationship between the Grinch, and Cindy Lou (and not to mention Martha near the end). Well, I’m glad that you enjoyed this film. I look forward to rewatching it fairly soon myself.
I love this movie so much! Even though I love Christmas, I relate to the Grinch so much. Lol. This and National Lampoons Christmas Vacation are my two favourite Christmas movies that I could watch again and again and never tire of.
I love how excited Nick got watching Martha May put up the lights. So cute 😍Love your videos Nick
My favourite line of the movie is and always will be:
"Santa? Whats Christmas really about?"
"VENGEANCE! I mean...presents..."
I love the original Grinch animated film, but I thought that this was a fine remake.The Grinch's reasons for hating Christmas in this version are fair. The recent animated film from a year or two back unfortunately took away most of his hatred of people and made him just disliking Christmas rather than hating it.
Nick was laughing super hard at so many parts of the movie which I don't blame him because I was laughing just as much I think the Grinch is probably the most funniest character of the entire movie 😂😅
I remember when this came out. in Spain we had never seen any cartoons of the grinch (i think we still havent got them on tv ever), so imagine this being the firs time you see this "grinch" thing. it was amazing and super fun
One of the best lines in this movie is where he's going through the ledger of Whos, "Alexander Carmen Who, I hate you. Barbra Vivian Who, I hate you." Finger stabbing down the page, "Hate, hate, hate, double hate, LOATHE ENTIRELY!" Hilarious, and one of my favorites.
This movie is part of what my family calls "The Holiday Comedy Trio", which we watch every year around Christmas time. We laugh every time
If grinch is one of them what’s the other two
@@isaquinos_vlogs Home Alone and National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation
Did you know that there is a home alone movie called home alone the holiday heist
I love this movie so much. Such a great version and a wonderful christmas movie. So quotable to. xD
"Bleeding hearts of the world, unite!"
"I'm speaking in rhymes!!!" Dx
"We're gonna die! We're gonna die! I'm gonna throw up! And then I'm gonna die!" xD
Marry Christmas nick 👍👍🙂🙂😊😊 🎄🎄🎄🎁🎁🎁🎁🎁🌨️❄️❄️🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎁🎁🎁🎁.
This film brings back memories for me also you should watch the santa clause with Tim Allen 🎅🎅🎅🎅🎅
Yeah, I always wondered HOW in the world could she not see that "Santa Claus" was green?!
Also I now wonder what Whoville's electrical bill is like
In this film, Cindy's played by "Taylor Momsen" who's actually become an artist (like music artist) as well as an actress. So it's not surprising that you think she has a beautiful singing voice, because she 'does' sing.
I have seen the live action version of the grinch many times it’s one of my favorite movies sense the early 2000s hit’ but I know seen it before me and my family moved to Arizona. ❤ 🎄
keep reacting to more movies I hope you do another reaction to it chapter 1 and 2
Grinch: Taxi!
*Taxi drives away*
Grinch: It's because I'm green, isn't it?
Me:🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I’m quite late to the party here, but I found this video today and it’s just so wholesome 😭
(TMI, but I lost a elderly pet today and your contagious giggling really helped in cheering me up, so thank you very much for making this!)
The Grinch also did a very good plank exercise on the cliff
Taylor Momsen who plays Cindy Loud is in the band The Pretty Reckless which I had NO idea that was her! I listened to them all through high school and didn't know
Beetlejuice is my go to Halloween movie. No question, no argument, it is a fantastic, hilarious Halloween movie.
That being the case, The Grinch with Jim Carrey is my go to Christmas movie. I love, love, LOVE this movie! Carrey was in prime form from start to finish, and it will *always* land a direct hit to the funny bone. He seemed like he was having a lot of fun. And he really sells the character.
Fun fact, it took *eight and a half* hours to get Jim Carrey into his costume. So one day, towards the end of the filming, much of the cast got done up in the makeup and hair to show they appreciated the effort he'd gone to for the role.
My favorite line in the entire movie was when he was flying the sleigh for the first time. "WE'RE GONNA DIE! WE'RE GONNA DIE! I'm going to throw up. AND THEN I'M GONNA DIIIIIIEEEE!" The whole sequence just leaves me in stitches.
(Edit: I'd gotten the time it took to get Jim Carrey into his makeup and costume wrong, by a lot)
for a second i thought he was just a floating head because his shirt matches the couch
Fun fact. Cindy Lou is now the lead singer for a rock band called The Pretty Reckless. Listen to Heaven Knows.
Besides the 60's animated Grinch my favourite Christmas movies/specials: Rudolph: The Red-Nosed Reindeer, Frosty The Snowman, A Garfield Christmas (that one always makes me cry actually), Christmas Vacation, Jingle All The Way, Muppet Christmas Carol, Santa Claus: The Movie (not to be confused with the Tim Allen trilogy), Home Alone 1 & 2, and not Christmas but watched around this time of year: Cool Runnings. I'd love to see a reaction to some of these.
This is in my top 5 Christmas movies I HAVE to watch every year.
#1 will always be A Christmas Carol (1984) with George C. Scott. He is the best Scrooge in my opinion.
#2 is White Christmas (1954) with Bing Crosby, Rosemary Clooney, and Danny Kaye
When I was little and the Grinch came out in Theatres, I got so scared of the part where he wrapped Cindy-Lou Who up in the gift wrapping that I ran straight out to the family car and locked all the doors. LOL. I like the movie now. LOL
I'm sure I've seen this movie more than 30 times, not always at Christmas, because I'm not even 20.
i've seen home alone five times a year. Three during the summer.
I have his to do list on a tshirt. I love it so much 'Even if I wanted to go my schedule wouldn't allow it. 4:00, wallow in self pity; 4:30, stare into the abyss; 5:00, solve world hunger, tell no one; 5:30, jazzercize; 6:30, dinner with me - I can't cancel that again; 7:00, wrestle with my self-loathing... I'm booked." 🤣
It’s kind of funny because Jim Carrey not only has played the Grinch but he also played Scrooge in the animated Disney Christmas Carol in like 2009 or 2010. Then he also voices Horton in the movie adaptation of Horton Hears A Who, which funnily enough involves the Whos. Quite a few parallels here.
12:43 Also the actress who did Cindy Lou Who is now a lead singer of a rock band known as "The Pretty Reckless"
Fun fact: Taylor Momsen aka Cindy Lou Who is now the lead singer for a pretty famous rock band called The Pretty Reckless. They are actually SO good.
Yes
How The Grinch Stole Christmas is my favorite Christmas movie.
Very surprised you hadn't seen this one yet because I remember you said you love Christmas. But then again, I only watched a few "classics" growing up so there's some I haven't seen either lol. I didn't even watch this one until a few years after it came out but I'm glad I did. Hope you feel better soon! 🎄
