This movie is based on the book named Fahrenheit 451 (like the movie) and was written by Ray Bradbury, an award winning novelist who wrote this masterpiece. But, this movie does a horrible job at adapting the book, because, they take too much freedoms and deviate from the central storyline and message of the book. In Fahrenheit 451, it's not the tecnology or the year what is important, but the psychological dilema the main character has to go through. Btw, the book is fantastic. 10/10
This is how liberals twist a book to make the very "victims" of their persecution into the antagonists and perpetrators of censorship. Stupid liberal socialists/communists ruin everything.
"Fire men are supposed to take out fires,not create them" The meaning behind this sentence is so impactful and it is kinda sad considering that in this world they start the fire rather than quenching it..
I mean, the word "firemen" is made up of the words "fire" and "men" and together said, it would make much more sense that they create fires However, "Fire Fighters" is a much more viable option
Fun fact: when the book version was distributed to students in one school for classes, profanities were ironically redacted with a marker, to a lot of protests.
As much as I can't stand books, I can't imagine a world without them. The smell, the sensation against your skin , the ideals inside those letters. Everyone should experience it
If you think about it, if you like these videos, you like listening to someone tell you a story. Books are words on a page that communicate a story to you, just in a different format. Maybe you'd like audio books then, where someone reads the book to you lol
This is based on a book by Ray Bradbury. It's an amazing book and he got alot of futuristic elements correct. Especially media corruption. This book and Orwell's 1984 are really good and predicted alot of technology ect. that didn't exist when they were written. Great recap!!
The Internet is basically most of humanity's knowledge at your fingertips. It's up to you if you want to use for learning or anything else. You can rot your brain away or becone the smartest person in the room depending on how you use it. One day IT will replace books, I bet $12692.26 on it...
I have read the book and I agree, it’s far greater than the movie; it’s usually the case with books that turn into movies But I meant movies can get people excited to read books as well
The Birbs: "The situation in Argentina has proven less convenient than predicted. We'll have to re-destabilize their economy, refocus labor class outrage from upper to middle, foster a coup, and install a compliant regime."
I read the book. Honestly I didn't know there was a movie. Can't wait to watch the actual thing. Edit: here are some things that are different: 1: the guy in the end didn't die 2: he was actually married 3: he kills montag instead of montag killing him
I remember reading this in middle school and being absolutely horrified by it. I never realized how much influence books have on our lives and how they are so important to freedom of expression. Edit: although I have not watched the movie, the plot seems pretty different from the book. I'm sure it's still a great movie to watch, but I would recommend reading the book too!
We’re reading the book in my English class we’re almost done and the movie is so different. The book is by Ray Bradbury, Clarisse was my favorite character hated how she died in the book, most hated character was Montag’s wife Mildred. Also Beatty doesn’t kill Montag with the flamethrower the roles are reversed in the books Montag kills Beatty with the flamethrower.
I dont like school books. But F451 was different. I actually was super engaged, and was shocked when he killed Beatty. One of my favorite moments in books. This movie should have tried to take its own identity, disassociating with F451
As someone who loved the book by Ray Bradbury, being a big Bradbury fan, this movie was honestly very disappointing. It made me mad in some cases like where they completely re-write the plot to allow for things to exist that never would have in the original book's timeline.
I remember this was one of my summer reading books as a kid and I started to just spark note it but then realized how interesting it sounded and actually read the whole thing. Plus it was a tiny book and easy read but so good!
I was very sceptical about this remake. Having read the book before and after, I dislike this movie. It's not good and I really hope they do a better adaptation in the future.
@@sonofdeadmeat713 I have. Clarisse is still an adult and there are no mechanical hounds, but it's a much closer adaptation than this one. If you look closely in the scenes where you see the fire truck going down the road, you'll see that it's actually a toy fire truck because they didn't have the ability to use a real one.
i usually always think when it comes to movies like this about wars and rebellion, that i'd rather be the person who lives on her own without getting in any of that, and simply following the rules but still living well. but with this story, I just right away tho I would probably be one of those who hide books and look for them everywhere even if it meant being arrested. what kind of world is that ??? i just can't believe how anyone would cheer up when seeing this many books being burned and humiliated.
It is possible, if you are brainwashed properly from the birth itself. There are many people in North Korea who finds nothing wrong in Kim Jong... So, yeah, it's possible.
These movie reminds me of SEE. Only difference was that everyone in the world(in the future) was blind due to radiation from a natural disaster. Out of everyone who was blind, there was a man who could see. He went around procreating so that his children could see to. These people with sight were said to be cursed by the blind people because they have a lot of knowledge. And the reason why these people had such knowledge was because they could read. And they read everything about the world before them including biology, etc. Those books were the difference between life and death!
@@soupy5890 Yes, Braille. But in the movie, all technology is lost (almost all but if there existed any with little functions, only the ones with sight will know how to use it). In this movie, the disaster killed almost the world's entire population leaving only 2 million people on the planet and the effect of this disaster resulted in the survivors losing their sight. So, the generations following the survivors of the disaster (hundreds of years later) believed that being able to see was only a myth. It's a great series, I think you could give it a try. It stars Jason Mamoa
I couldn't live in a world that knowledge was a crime. When I was a kid I used to read a lot of books, and now the internet is my paradise. I've learned more alone searching on the internet than in college and I try to learn something new everyday. Knowledge is the key to freedom and the dictactor's nightmare.
Already the Internet is busily being censored. Things you could find online last year are no longer available. News articles have disappeared. Want an example? Contrary to popular belief, in World War 2 the Germans recruited people from other races into their Waffen SS troops: Arabs, Indians, Black Africans and Asians. Last year you could easily find photos of them online, many other races wearing nazi uniforms. This year I was unable to find any photos like that on Google. Maybe other browsers could find them, or maybe not. Some of us were having a discussion about WW2 military and suddenly that information was just gone. It must be that those photos don't fit whatever revised history is currently being created. The truth is apparently dangerous.
God this movie was so awful. The original book I read in my freshman year, full of beautiful storytelling and literature. Have a powerful message about the dangers of censorship and conformation in society, about “following the crowd” and “if you let society control you too much.” And then this movie just shit on all that and made it a god awful action movie. No offense, but it’s obvious that this comment section is full of children
@@jesusisunstoppable4438 well that sounds boring as hell. Not that I care in this dumb conflict between generation fight blah blah but I don't like those bullcrap I'd rather prefer a mystery book although never read one because our school was trash and there isn't a library till 100km.
Ignorance is a virtue in today’s world. So i’m not surprised many would say that. I was always told that the only thing no one can take from you is your knowledge. And as long as you have that, you hold power.
You have to build up to the bigger things; just find a book your interested in and try to read it 20 minutes a day or 20 minutes every now and then. This is how I started, then before I knew it I was up to hours a day.@@adrivagardens6729
Tomorrow for ELA I have to take the final test over the book. Knowing there was a movie I decided to check it out and this literally is so far from the book it’s crazy, but at the same time I understand why. If you’ve read the book you’d understand it wouldn’t necessarily be too appealing to many movie goers in the modern day. Think about if it was a true translation. A man who has to burn books realizes that he isn’t happy and wants books so he keeps some and eventually is found so he runs away to live outside the city on railroad tracks with old university professors. Obviously the book is WAY deeper than that but that’s the basic plot of what the movie would be and yes it probably wouldn’t be great as a movie but that’s ok because it is a book so it wasn’t made for the big screen and doesn’t need the big screen to convey its message.
You are awesome I no longer need to waste my time watching movies. I'm serious also I find my self having the same emotions as if I watched the movie. So these videos will not leave you emotionally bankrupt lol. I think this is more efficient. The music, your voice, and the pace at which you tell the story is on point. I'm my opinion your the best at this
well... in a way, it's 2022 and it's already trendy to mock education on social media. I can very easily visualize this becoming a reality in the future.
Fun fact: The censorship didn’t come from the government down, the citizens actually decided that books and thought caused unhappiness, and should be destroyed for that reason. It wasn’t really a dictatorship.
It's so ironical that the storyline specifies the importance of books but the same movie heavily distorted the events in the orignal book from which it is adapted.
I read the book as a kid before I saw the movie adaptation, the scariest part back then for me was "The Mechanical Hound" for how terrifying it was described and the metaphors it represented and I was sad when they didn't bring it into this movie and how much they deviated from what the book was even about.
Gotta wonder how Ray Bradbury would feel about his book about the importance of books being turned into a bad movie and then summarized in 10 minutes on RU-vid
The pill/drop was the most egregious liberty the movie took for me. The whole point of bradbury was that the whole situation wasn't necessarily forced upon the masses, the masses chose to be the way they are. Hence why Granger at the end said, you cant make people listen, you have to make them realize why everything is crumbling (loosely paraphrased sorry). Sadly, the pill/drop disregarded this core idea from the book.
The Firemen: *burns all books cause books can cause unhappiness, mental illness, and conflicting opinions* Minecraft Stinky Steve books: Maybe i am a monster.
@@juditeferreira8667 Internet provide the content which taken from the books, and books are not meant by either hardcopy or soft one, its about the knowledge. And Wikipedia or any other site in the end of the article give CITATION, which clearly shows that the content is actually taken from the BOOKS.
He was told that reading books was a crime, it caused unhappiness, mental illness, and conflicting opinions sounds like pregnancy to me ( I'm a guy btw )
You are a 15 year old male talking about what pregnancy feels like 🧍🏾♀️.... um just to let you know, you are completly wrong and your description is weirdly wrong lol
Can you also narrate '50s, '60s, '70s movies? And also I'm curious how they were received back then: •flop? •blockbuster? •award-winning? •critically-acclaimed? •criticized? •etc.etc. Thanks
I'm pretty sure I've seen an older movie with a different version of the story. I don't remember much, but there were also fireman who burned books, one of which questioned it and read a book (the protagonist of course). There were also people memorizing one book each and I think the protagonist became one of them in the end.
Totally different ending, . . . . in book, Fireman Montag is declared a criminal, he watches his faked death by cop on TV News. . . goes into hiding in a Hobo Camp at the river where everyone there is memorizing a book, and teaching their kids the book by oral tradition. . so every family protects every great piece of literature by memory. 451 freaked me out so much I went and memorized "Animal Farm". . . .
@@imdumbbut8915 You don't necessarily have to like what you do, if are doing it on your own free will.......I still won't care if social media disappears.
@@LineOfThy You know fire fighters use fire to stop wild fires from spreading. Go tell them not to use that method.........Social media is garbage meant to enslave and dumb down the population. Some times you got to fight fire with fire.
