I really appreciated how much the people who made Werewolf by Night really like film history, this felt like a film for film nerds in the best possible way.
I went into this completely blind, had no idea what Werewolf by Night was, or where it came from, but this was really enjoyable and creative, and of course your Reactions are always chill and fun to watch.
I absolutely loved this movie! I just wish it was 30-40 minutes longer. The practical werewolf design looked fantastic. I hope they continue this into a full on series.
I'd be down for more! There is so much left to this story. Like seeing Elsa become even more of a badass with the bloodstone, what Jack and Ted get up to, what was behind the closing door with the TVA guys? 🤔
With all the positive reception, the great timing of release while the offer of horror on Disney is limited… I’m actually quite sure this will do good! Everybody who watched is so down for more! :D And haha I get your feeling Jay. I love revisitent my fav Movies but there’s some you just have to see ASAP!
I knew you would like it. Did you catch his name is Jack Russell, like the terrier dog? Kids missed out on the older stuff, but you are old enough to remember them running the late saturday night showings. The people that did this 100% understood the scoring, opening & cut-aways for implied action/movement to update the old stuff to today. They wisely sped up the scenes in time (as you know the older shows are much slower). Those comics were before my time, but I do remember they appeared because the CCA had changed. J. Jonah Jameson's kid becomes a werewolf at some point. They did a solid 50's style werewolf too...I notice younger people are seeing it and not understanding it is the old style. And the same for Man-Thing...they did lots of work to give him an actual personality in a short time.
My favorite pseudo-callback was the framerate for the transformation in the shadows while also not showing it. Just a slow zoom in on Elsa as she sees him for who he is. So good!
That was different lol Great review and never too much talking when you are reviewing and giving info , especially to us non comic book watchers . Still like the old wolfman movies much more but this was ... different .
Savage Tales was an anthology magazine. I'm pretty sure Man-Thing's appearance was not in a Conan story, but in his own story. Edit: What with Man-Thing being the protector of the Nexus of Realities, I could be wrong, and his appearance may actually have something to do with Conan. But I'm pretty sure that whole storyline was later in his "career".
Yeah. I was more into collecting a couple years back then I am now but I've got a solid collection. I also have a near complete Marvel Universe figure collection but the 4 or 5 figs I need have skyrocketed. 😂
This was so good! I hope they continue with the special presentation format for some other characters and stories. I just found your channel, I would be interested in seeing your reaction to the new Disney + MCU shows as they come out moving forward if you are able to. Either way, I am enjoying your past videos and will subscribe to see what comes next
Awesome! Yes, love these! Marvel doesn't do too hot on my channel, but it won't stop me from doing them. I might do the odd series. They are kinda my comfort watches so not 100 I'll do them but we'll see. I did the Guardians special which is great and as personal watches just finished She Hulk (which I thought was pretty fun!) and on Ms Marvel. That one I'm not as engaged with but it's a neat perspective of a kid figuring it all out.
@@JayBondReacts right on. I get it with comfort watching Marvel. Short reviews would be fun for conversation as well from time to time instead of reactions for Marvel. But absolutely keep some stuff for your chill time, totally understandable. The GOTG special was fun, as was She-Hulk. Although, both would be lower on a rewatch ranking for me. I tend to enjoy drama & trauma more than most comedy, unless it is dark sarcastic drama type comedy. My top 2 favorite characters in the MCU are Loki & Bucky, and Dark World is in my top 3 favorite movies, if ranking has to be a thing, I think my top picks tell you all you need to know about my taste in movies and tv, for the most part, there are always anomalies 😜 I have thoughts similar to yours about Ms.Marvel. I really enjoyed the last episode, it felt like a live action episode of the X-Men animated series. I was 11/12 when that show premiered and I was a big fan. It was my introduction to the world of Marvel. When I was a kid DC still ruled television and cinema, and I am not a superhero comic reader, my exposure to superhero’s all came from tv and movies. Looking forward to seeing what you watch next!
Both Swamp Thing and Man-Thing are copped from The Heap, a "muck monster" from the '40s. I'm glad they made Ted considerably more intelligent than his comic-book counterpart who indiscriminately burns anyone who is afraid of him, which makes personal interactions...difficult.
I don't know if you're familiar with WBN's 'partner' horror comic, The Tomb of Dracula. A one off based on that comic would be something else. That Dracula is just so over the top.
I'm not that familiar, but I agree. That would but a fun lead up to the new Blade movie that as of today seems to be back in limbo or pushed back again.
Nah, I probably wouldn't do that simply because it doesn't make sense to do on here or the other channels. That's awesome that you collect though. I almost exclusively have key issues as well cameos and 1st appearances. Except X-23, I have big chunk of every appearance she's made.
You didn't expect the mcu to have bits of humor? I was afraid it might have too much humor but it has the right amount (for a studio that can't resist themselves), just a couple things here and there. Zero humor would've been great too, but luckily what we got didn't take away from the overall tone.
I didn't expect this specific movie to have humor as it's the start of a dark universe but it was okay. I dug the characters and back and forth with Ted and Jack.
I don't typically react to new stuff, but I couldn't pass this up! I need more one-offs like this. Also, more "Ted".
Ted is a very important character to what he guards over!!! We will definitely see him again!!!
I really appreciated how much the people who made Werewolf by Night really like film history, this felt like a film for film nerds in the best possible way.
Ditto!
I went into this completely blind, had no idea what Werewolf by Night was, or where it came from, but this was really enjoyable and creative, and of course your Reactions are always chill and fun to watch.
Michael Giacchino Gael García Bernal and Laura Donnelly were so great in this!!!
Man, this special was awesome. I'm glad you did a reaction to it, it's totally the sort of thing that's fun to see you do!
Glad you liked both the special and the reaction! I can't wait for the holiday special now.
I absolutely loved this movie! I just wish it was 30-40 minutes longer. The practical werewolf design looked fantastic. I hope they continue this into a full on series.

I mean I fact checked myself and showed the cover. 😂 Man-Thing's first appearance was Savage Tales #1.
While I found Moon Knight kinda disappointing, I really hope we get to see him against Jack Russell soon
Rad that you collect comics as well, this was a real (trick or) treat to watch!
Is that a "Young Frankenstein" Puttin' On The Ritz cap? 😮
Yeah. I was more into collecting a couple years back then I am now but I've got a solid collection. I also have a near complete Marvel Universe figure collection but the 4 or 5 figs I need have skyrocketed. 😂
@@JayBondReacts Dang, I hope you can complete the collection someday :)

I loved this and want more, but just have to wait...!!!!
other than Werewolf by Night, Elsa, Man-Thing and Ulysses Bloodstone, the rest are original characters
Okay, thank you!
Both Swamp Thing and Man-Thing are copped from The Heap, a "muck monster" from the '40s. I'm glad they made Ted considerably more intelligent than his comic-book counterpart who indiscriminately burns anyone who is afraid of him, which makes personal interactions...difficult.
That would be terrible to be honest. You know he wants to hug Jack so bad. 😂
I really love this movie ❤️

I've also had issue 10 in my hand multiple times contemplating if today was the day. 😂
Hey Jay u really should watch Dracula 2000. Great film & cast and an ending I have never seen before.
I forgot that existed. I always mix that up with Dario Argento's Dracula. That one I have seen but not 2000.
hey Jay, any chance u can do a video of ur comic collection ? i’m a collector myself and always enjoy seeing other people collection
Nah, I probably wouldn't do that simply because it doesn't make sense to do on here or the other channels. That's awesome that you collect though. I almost exclusively have key issues as well cameos and 1st appearances. Except X-23, I have big chunk of every appearance she's made.

@@bipolarewok I really hope we get to see them in something else. We need Man-Thing to talk to Groot at least once. 😂
@@JayBondReacts groot would be deadpool next to man thing. "The plant with a mouth" they'd call him.
Hello
This werewolf comic movie isn't my Forte'. I surfed to the end & went on to something else, since this movie was so dumb. Marvel is going 'downhill'.
