I didn't realize Home still had such a big following! I love seeing everyone have the same reaction i did when i saw the books art for the first time. Thank you all for the support on this video. And I have several more Books to Movie videos in the works. So definitely subscribe if you wanna check those out when they go live 😊
I thought the exact same thing cause the Boov really look so off putting in the books art style. But nah, they're still quirky little aliens. The Gorg though are very different. I didn't go too much into them because of spoiler reasons. But I showed a page featuring one of them, and they're not a bait and switch like in the movie. They're very much a war loving race that conquers planets. And they're humanoid reptiles rather than being little starfish fellas.
@@Patbacknitro2 I was going to ask about that before like "Why where the gorg not really talked about" cause they looked almost nothing like their movie counterpart lol
@@YinYang-ep9lc I wanted to avoid a lot of the big spoilers of the books plot for those wanting to check it out. So it's kinda hard to talk about them when there's a few notable plot reveals involving them.
THATS WHY I REMEMBERED SEEING A POSTER FOR THE MOVIE LIKE A YEAR BEFORE IT CAME OUT!! I remember seeing a poster for the movie in 2014 and thinking the movie was out for like a full year before seeing trailers for it lol
The majority of them are Shrek, Home, How to Train Your Dragon, Boss Baby, Prince of Egypt, the upcoming movie Wild Robot, I’m pretty sure Abominable is a book
Home was, and still is my favourite childhood movie of all time. I recently bought, read, and finished a copy of the true meaning of smekday and absolutely loved it! Overall I do also love the altered story line of the movie however, and don't find the book nostalgic like the movie. I also noticed the slushie machine in home has the same colors as the one seen in the 2006 movie open season (another childhood fave), and that Tip and Oh have a similar friendship dynamic as Boog and Elliot.
Definitely plan on talking about Open Season, and it's sequels, someday. I also found out it's actually getting a new TV show soon. Except it'll be in a new 2D style rather than being CG.
The Show is already released in Australia, and is actually pretty good. Compared to the sequels is amazing, but nothing beats the 2006 og! I stumbled upon it when i was browsing through ABC iView (a free Australian streaming app with content from ABC (Australian broadcasting corporation) channels.) And home actually got an animated Netflix series in 2016!
Imagine if a sequel to Home was made- Here's my Prediction Home 2: Smek For President Release Date: 2027 (To Coincide with the first books 20th Anniversary) Premise: Sometime has passed since the first movie ended, Oh is now living with Lucy and Tip Tucci in Boston.The Humans and Boov Aliens have now reached a peace agreement and now they share Earth. Some of the Boov Aliens have relocated their colonies to various places such as The Moon, Venus, Mars, Ganymede and Titan. The Boov Aliens even have their own city high above Boston. But when the Boov Aliens adopt human politics Oh's old idol and arch nemesis Smek uses this as an opportunity to have his revenge against Oh and Tip. Cast Jim Parsons- Oh, Leader of the Boov Aliens and the main protagonist Rhianna- Tip Tucci, Oh's bestie and the secondary protagonist who had just recently graduated from middle school and is about to go into high school but has decided not to go to college in order to spend time with Oh. Jenefier Lopez- Lucy Tucci, Tip's caring mother Frank Welker- Pig-Cat, The Tuccis pet Calico Cat Matt L. Jones- Kyle, a Boov police officer Eden Taylor-Draper- Jasmine, one of Tip's friends Alessia Cara- Amelia, one of Tip's friends Peyton List- Hannah, one of Tip's friends Ron Funches- Sharzod, a Boov Alien that Tip had booby-trapped in the first movie Steve Martin- Smek, Former leader of the Boov Aliens and the main antagonist of Home 2: Smek For President Johnny Galecki- Dan Landry, the secondary antagonist of Home 2: Smek For President who takes credit for conquering the Gorg and his Smek's side kick. James Chase- Bill, a blue Boov Alien that Oh and Tip befriend to fight defeat Smek and Dan Landry and put a stop to their revenge plan Mark Whitten- Eye-patch Greg and Garfeldt, 2 blue Boov aliens that unwillingly become Smek's minions Nolan North- Traffic Cone Larry, a blue Boov alien who uses a traffic cone for a hat that unwillingly becomes Smek's Minion. Grey Griffin- Dianne, a 10 ft tall muscular 4 armed alien who is one of Tip's friends. Rob Paulsen and April Winchell- Additional Voices NOTE: Some of the characters from the first movie and the TV series make a cameo appearance.
Wow, I had no idea there was a novel! When the movie first came out, I wasn't a huge fan of it either, but I also ended up loving it. I think this movie deserves a bit more conversation, so thank you for making this!
Nick Markgraf is the guy who voices my videos, and he's amazing at impressions. He's done Sonic in most of our Sonic reviews. And he did a really good Soos for our Gravity Falls review. Very talented guy.
You should talk about the differences between the book and movie version of how to train your dragon since they're radically different and would make for an interesting topic
You Should do Rumble next as it was a film loosely based on the graphic novel called Monster on the Hill and i do say loosely as the graphic novel is well super different for everything and you would be surprised the book even got a expanded Edition that had an 10 page epilogue when the film came out like i don't know why the movie was not anything from the graphic novel at all it's kinda like the filmmakers thought the book was boring and i wonder if the creator was ever fine with this giant change they did
Honestly I love Home, it's one of my favorite movies. I think its mostly because of the nostalgia element as it reminds me of when I was a little kid. I really loved Rihanna and Jim in this.
I used to watch this movie like every time on my dvd collection bc it was so sad and a good plot the movies was just cute i even have the purple alien king as a bath toy that i don't use anymore
I used to absolutely love this movie and the first time I watched it. I literally cried when oh seemingly got crushed and still do when I rewatch it lol❤
It's dumb that they couldn't, because Jennifer Lopez not only starred in the film, but also approved of JLo's name originally. So why it had to be a legal mess I'll never know. Which I think the film had a fine work around with how Oh's name relates to how every other Boov saw him. In the book he took up the name JLo because he thought it was a common Earth name.
I actually read the book a few years ago. I was about halfway through when I noticed the similarities to the movie, and realised that the movie was based on the book. Overall, the book was hilarious the whole way through, and I’d recommend it anyone. It’s much better than the movie, and the mystery elements keep the reader on the edge of their seat throughout the read.
Since you’re doing DreamWorks movies and their book counterparts, I would definitely enjoy a video on How to Train Your Dragon, the stories are so wildly different that a video comparing the two would be awesome
I figured home didn't really get much attention for what it was, but I loved the movie when i was younger and I still think it's a great one, it's nice to see how many peoples views are actually pretty positive on it!
0:26 I knew Over the Hedge was a comic strip before I knew it got a movie, but this is my first time hearing about Boss Baby being based on something. Probably a picture book for small children if I had to guess.
I loved this movie (and its Netflix show) as a kid! I remember crying at the part where Tip gets lost in a crowd looking for her mother. I could really feel her desperation.
Wait home was based off a book. I mean the first everything related to home I ever saw with the show and then I later found the movie and I thought the movie was was off the show until I found out that the movie came before the show, but now I’m figuring out that the movie is based off a book
If I had a nickel for every time a movie based of a book released after the book’s sequel I’d have 2 nickels which isn’t a lot but it’s still weird it happed twice.
My question is why oh sent a guy who not only lives on the same planet, but like the same STREET as him, directions to his home from outside the solar system. Its just a really weird plot point i got hung up on even as a kid.
arent alot of movies just based on books, kinda a thing people forget about. Did not expect the book to be 500 pages long tho as for my opinion on this movie its a mixed back for me like i feel it couldve been better
Definitely on my list lol. As you can see by the past 2 Book to Movie videos I made, it's been mostly DreamWorks projects so far. The next one I have a script ready for is a Disney one.
I love when I find out these movies I thought were atleast original are based on a book, makes me dislike stuff such as boss baby even more knowing they had to try even less
If I had a nickel for every time a dreamworks movie had the sequel of the book released a year prior to the movie I’d have two nickels, which isn’t a lot but it weird that it happened twice right?
It's not. My videos are voiced by Nick Markgraf. It's also not his normal speaking voice. I asked him to do more of a character voice to fit the channels mascot. We use the mascot in our regular reviews.
