Rise of the Guardians IS Dreamworks Forgotten Masterpiece 

The thing that makes Jamie realize Jack is there is that the snowflake falls on his nose. The saying is “Jack Frost nipping at your nose”, which refers to the severe cold making your nose cold and red

There is actually a book series that this movie is inspire by. Santa was born a Russian Cossack, the Easter bunny is an Alien Bunny Warrior/Time Lord, Tooth Fairy is a magical hybrid, while Sandman piloted shooting stars to grant wishes. And Pitch did have a family, his daughter is MOTHER-FREAKING-NATURE!

The Easter Bunny looks like a huge jacked man because he's voiced by Hugh Jackman

I think one of the reasons it failed was because it was released around the same time as two giant movies. Like the James bond movie and another one I forgot. It just got completely buried.

I never actually noticed Baby Tooth’s heterochromia until you mentioned it! And I had been watching this movie for every holiday since it came out! Just proves that when you react to a movie you pay real close attention to detail 👏

I love this movie so dearly, specially Jack Frost. In the books, he is said to be the guardian of the lost as well, specially since he was inspired by Peter Pan. The author once said “Unlike Pan, Jack Frost knows there is an end to childhood, he knows that heartbreak and hurt are coming. But he will use memory as a weapon to keep the darkness at bay”. It so powerful ♥️ Ps: Jack Frost - Fun Easter Bunny - Hope Santa Claus - Wonder Sandy - Dreams Tooth Fairy - Memory

I adore this movie. Sandman was also my favorite but it makes sense he would be target number one. Dreams help us process information, even when we can't remember them, sleeping and healthy dream cycles are very important to our mental health. If all the kids only got nightmares, the amount of stress that puts on our minds is massive. Then the things they look forward to not happening (easter eggs, tooth fairy not coming) hit them harder.

I really liked that at the core, the villain is driven by the desire to be believed in and seen. It’s highly relatable.

I always wished that this movie got a sequel. I was hoping for the return of Pitch and a redemption arc which ends with him taking on the mantle of Jack O' Lantern and becoming the Guardian of Halloween :D

'He's like Elsa but much cooler' **has flashbacks to the days everyone I knew shipped Jelsa**

0:57 - "Oh my god. He's like Elsa" Me: *Several flashbacks to the hundreds of JFxE fanfiction I've read* Hell yeah this is an underrated masterpiece! Thank you for reacting to Holiday Avengers.

Funny detail, North's exclamations are the names of Russian composers: Shostakovich and Rimsky-Korzakov

Dreamworks has multiple hidden masterpieces. One of my favorites is the Road to El Dorado.

1. The movie you were thinking of is called Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole. 2. I LOVE THIS MOVIE SO MUCH IT SO UNDERRATED ❤️❤️❤️ 3. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS SO MUCH YOU MAKE ME SMILE EVERY WEEK ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

This Movie is so underrated, I really love it to bits. Also The Elsa comparison made me laugh really hard because there are so many shipping Videos between Jack and Elsa

This movie is DEFINITELY underrated.

Not finished with the reaction yet but to answer your question, basically DreamWorks does a shit job at marketing. Try and look at the trailers of not only this movie, but pretty much every movie they made: they make them look like all the same movie, with the same jokes and focus WAY TOO MUCH on saying "Remember all these famous A+++ actors you love?? They're in the movie!!! Who cares about you trying to figure out the plot, WE HAVE JOKES AND HUGH JACKMAN!" This, mixed with other factors like the up and down quality of DreamWorks movies (Pixar makes some vague trailers as well but at least they have the reputation that their weakest movie is still a good movie) doesn't help movies like this or Megamind to gain popularity, so they end up becoming cult classics.

To be fair bunnies do like carrots, it's just very easy to give them too much because they're very high in sugar and a certain vitamin (I forget what it is rn)and a lot will really mess them up or kill them, but a small amount of carrot every once in a while is fine.

Welchy: “I was so disappointed that there’s no owls” *_1 second later_* Welchy: *“Forget about the owls!”*

This is such an underrated movie. I love the rivalry between Jack Frost and the Easter Bunny and their chemistry.

You should watch Guardians of Ga'Hoole, that's the owl movie you were probably thinking of. They are both great movies!

I think Rise of the Guardians is criminally underrated. When the trailer first dropped. I was so hyped to see it. I kept missing the opportunity to watch it. Mainly because it basically disappeared; I finally got to watch it back in 2017

Apologies if you notice how unwell I look or acted, I was close to my death bed filming this 😂 However, Happy Easter everyone 👊🏼

ROTG is literally my CHILDHOOD. I loved it, Sandman's death always made me cry, Jack's "death" scene made tears fall, and EB turning into a mini rabbit was always hilarious.

I love when the villain is someone that the hero could have been if they took different choices aha ALSO SOMETHING I LOVED that I hadn’t seen before!! Was the fact that SANDMAN was the- like the powerful one that pitch got scared of, an important key in the defeat, the job that’s usually given to the main character. I just think that’s neat.

I always loved this movie it was such an amazing storyline to include all the fictional characters, truly an underrated masterpiece Also I took the meaning of 'boogie' as dance, which lead to very funny thoughts

There are theories that the little boy Jamie is actually a descandent of Jack's sister. You can see Jamie and his little sister has some similar features of Jack's little sister's face, but then again it could just be the creators reusing the design for budget purposes. But this theory has added so much more heartwarming depth of Jack and Jamie's friendship. Jamie is basically a clone of Jack's sister and still looked after his family even after life :)

Wait, this movie failed? Never wouldda guessed, having been on tumblr when it came out. It was very popular there.

I love this movie. It is so whimsical and tightly written, and the characters are so heartbreakingly relatable. I love the theory that Jamie is Jack's sister's descendant. They look similar, and live near the same pond, and I think it adds an extra special touch that the legacy of Jack's sacrifice lives on, and even helped save the world.

I watched this movie as a child and it is now forever etched into my soul. It sucks that this film is as underrated and forgotten as it is. I love all the characters so much, the story is relatable and compelling, the music is enrapturing, I could go on and on about how much I love this movie. Also, I hope you get better soon, Welchy, take it easy and take care fo yourself!

Literally just understood why Pitch’s lair had a bed over it. Jesus I’m dumb.

this was my fav movie when I was a kid, it had everything sad scenes that I can relate to, exciting storyline and it had every mythical figure I believed in. the thing is this movie is totally underrated I tried to share this blessing of mine with others but all of them refused to watch it I still love this movie and I believe it's the reason I was so imaginative.

i like the attention to Detail with Santa having a Russian accent, while St. Nicholas was German, the village he lived in was part of Rus (later Russia) at the time.

Fun fact this is based on the the book series the guardians of childhood by William Joyce the author who wrote the book or books that rolie polie Olie was based off of happy Easter by the way

10:11 Actually, bunnies do like carrots. But they prefer the green stem and leaves, as opposed to the orange root (which is what we eat).

TOTALLY UNDERRATED!!! I watched this a couple of years ago with my kids during Christmas and it's now a regular holiday (Christmas, Easter, snow day, etc) movie. I tear up every time we watch it!

This movie was adorable, I love it so much. I think of it the same way I think of Megamind. Megamind was amazing and it's a shame it didn't get the recognition Despicable Me did buuuuttttt if it did, there would be the possibility of it getting shitty sequels and the franchise being, imo ruined. But I love that Megamind and Rise of the Guardians are getting at least some of the praise and recognition they deserve right now. Also, totally watch Guardians of Ga'Hoole! It's not a perfect story but it's so beautifully animated and cute and seriously beautifully animated like it had no right to look that good being released in 2010. I watched it a little while ago after trying to figure out where this one Owl City song was from and it was from the soundtrack of that movie. I love it so so much.

18:37 when jack frost said "when moon tells you something believe it" ... Marc Spector aka Steven grant aka Jake lockley took it personally

“He’s like Elsa but so much cooler” Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons: **slowly slips out of the room**

Oh, this is TOTALLY underrated, I really love this film! I’m not sure why it failed, maybe because of sabotage like with Treasure Planet?

I love how they put the entrance to Pitch's hide out under a bed because the boogie Man live under your bed!

0:13 Trollhunters is such a good series. I highly recommend it. It’s the one underneath Rise of the Guardians. It’s so good❤❤❤❤

Jamie is the descendant of Jack's sister or brother I think. They have similar eyes and facial structure. His sister Sophie also matches one of Jack's sisters in his past. SOOOOooooo

pitch was the ultimate sass king and i love it

As a child I hated Pitch but when I grew up and I rewatched this movie as an adult, I actually felt really sad for Pitch, I thought it was heartbreaking how his fear is represented by a childhood bed. It makes me wonder. But anyway, he makes me sad as an adult.

This is one of the best movies Jack frost was my first crush And this deserves WAAAAY more love

Steve Irwin would forgive the stingray, he'd probably even apologise for making it feel so threatened that it had to attack him. Which honestly, makes that even sadder 😭

To be honest when I watched this for the first time I didn't expect much. But I also just loved this completely new concept. Surely, something different than another princess movie 😅 Great video and reaction as always! 🤩

This movie is impeccable I will die on this hill comfort movie

To answer the question about leaving the kids on the ice, look at the credits and the end credit scenes

Honestly, Bear in the Big Blue house slapped. Tutter the mouse was my favorite. And Bear sticking his muzzle into the camera was such an awesome fourth wall break

If you look closely at Baby Tooth, the little hummingbird that follows Jack around, the beauty mark on her cheek matches Jack’s sister too.

16:08 was the most adorable reaction I have ever seen loolol

I like how this Movie is getting attention again as a kid i used to watch it like every weekend bc i really liked it

Shout out to Peter Ramsey as the director. I love watching the BTS videos. You can really see how much time, effort, and love he put into this film. Shame it didn't get the appreciation or support it deserved.

He called the Easter Bunny kangaroo like when I feel that’s the point since EB is Australian which is a super cool detail

im actually really annoyed we never got a sequel.

This is such an underrated movie; I loved this movie! I suggest maybe watching “Epic” which is another under-appreciated animated movie with a beautiful plot.

I was in grade two when it came out- I’m in grade 12 now and it’s still one of my favourites

Saw this movie when it came out in theatres and to this day it is one of my favourite films! It's a great stand alone film so I'm not mad that it didn't get a sequel or anything but I'm sad that it doesn't get the recognition. Like the characters are so much fun and the story (be it simple) is engaging and there's a clear plot line from one scene to another, it builds off of itself. I hope more people watch it and be pleasantly surprised!

To see this movie in the theatre in 3D was awesome! The ending scene with the golddust dreams surrounded you. The dolphins swam PAST you it was an amazing experience. Best in theatre movie I've ever seen.

I actually have an app that tells me moon phases, and it sends random notifications (the best so far being "I don't like boardgames" and "I need to scream") so thank you for reminding me I need to check for new ones

You know I have watched this movie hundreds of times and I truly never realized baby tooth had heterochromia possibly because she has small eyes and other than that I am glad you liked the movie

I remember this movie coming out around my birthday (January) so we went to see it in theaters and I had a *blast*. Still love the movie to this day like 5 years later. But I think it didn’t blow up as well because of a few things. 1) January is kind of a “slow” month for movies and there aren’t many “blockbuster” movies out in January so other movies out that month don’t get as much attention 2) marketing. I really don’t remember seeing much advertisement for this movie and just went to see it on a whim when I wanted to see a movie for my birthday.

I'm so happy to see this especially since I recently became OBSESSED with this movie again. There's a book series which this movie is inspired by which I'm hoping to get, and I'm so upset there's no sequel they could've done so much, maybe looked into the backstories of the other Guardians or got a redemption arc for Pitch or something, I think that'd be cool to explore And god the dynamics of the characters all work so well, they're all so unique and fun including Pitch and his energeticness, I don't think I'll ever get over this amazing masterpiece Also there is even more angst in the books, Pitch was originally a good guy but was manipulated by hearing his daughter's voice, like how Jack heard his sister's voice, and he became corrupted North was born an orphan in Russia, his village was in danger by Pitch so he went to try and save it Tooth's only alive relative left is her sister, the others are dead And Bunny fled to Earth after becoming the last of his kind, the last Pooka left because Pitch killed his entire race

watching this movie at the cinema around christmas time together with my parents and my then best friend and her parents is one of the best childhood memories I have. Seriously this movie is an absolute masterpiece. Even back then I absolutely fell in love with the story and world building♥️

i also watched this for the first time in recent years in a spur of the moment decision. It was really enjoyable for something i only remember being advertised for such a little time

LOVE how the TOOTH FAIY LOoks like a humming Bird

This was literally one of my favourite movies when I was younger. I'm so happy you're reacting to it. (I hope you get better soon)

Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga'Hoole is an interesting movie... You should consider watching it in the future! As for this movie, Rise of the Guardians, we watch this ever Easter! It has become a family classic for us! Oh, and Welchy? David doesn't suck. My hubby's name is Daivd, so I happen to be quite partial to it! 😉

Now he’s said he looks like Ross Lynch I can’t unsee it 😂

“you dare have fun in my presence” he jus like me fr

OMG YESSS I fully agree with the title 😌✨ NOW ONTO WATCHING~

A real underrated gem.

This movie is absolutely a masterpiece and hilarious

Never forgot this movie, it was and always has been one of my favorites and it's sad that it doesn't get as much love as it deserves.

what sucks is that, Pitch could have had a purpose. He could have been the person that gives you the right about of fear or anxiety about a situation. Of course, this could explains social anxiety or irrational fears, where his job is to try to relieve it. but no, he thought his only purpose was just fear. just. fear. and in that regard, he was never able to do what he was meant to do.

This movie is definitely an underrated classic. one of my favorite movies

I've always thought this movie was a masterpiece. I still don't understand why it was so ignored.

I honestly don't know why this movie didn't see more success - I would've loved for more of the books in the series to have been made into movies.

Ayyy new upload! Happy Easter Welchy 🐣😆

RotG and Frozen came out the same year. Jack Frost came out several months before Elsa, but she sings so everyone made her the mascot of ice power children and Jack got forgotten. He went right back to no one seeing him after Frozen came out like 6 months later... Invisible. Like his first 300 years of being alive.

13:54 I thought that was actually what jack saiddddd whyyyyy 😭😭😭~sincerely a high person

I had no idea this movie was underrated. My family has watched this movie for Christmas for most of my life. I love it a lot and it’s probably my favorite kids movie

I've been requesting this for the LONGEST! Can't wait to watch it! Edit: LMFAO!! You immediately didn't like Bunnymund and called him a dick! 🤣 Also, I too, love the characters' unique designs. Tooth and the fairies' hummingbird-inspired design were especially pretty. Also, wasn't it funny when the elves tried to make Jack wear the shoes he's normally depicted wearing only for him to at them with digust? Also, thanks for the like Welchy!!

Santa Clause, Easter Bunny, Sandman, Tooth Fairy, and Jack Frost are the children’s superheroes for the special holidays

Ohhhhhh my god Rise of the Guardians is literally the most epic animated movie!👌👏💖love the commentary! amazing and hilarious as always!☺️😂👏

i remember watching this as a kid and I never knew it was a forgotten thing, I remember it like the back of my head when i was like 5-6 and im 18 now it's so crazy! ahhh I'm glad you have similar reactions I did when i rewatched the movie as an adult

Jack Forst was my very first fictional crush lol. and my love for fictional men just continued from there. now im the biggest anime fan and simp for ALOT of 2d men

OML BEAR IN THE BIG BLUE HOUSE, my brothers and I used to watch that when we were really little oml the memories

I love this movie so much! A family favorite 😁 I am pretty glad you watched this movie 😄 because it is seriously very underrated and unheard of. 😢 I remember that it came out at the same time as the last movie of the twilight saga and another famous franchise. 😭 The voice cast was composed of pretty famous actors and based on a best seller novel, so it had the elements for a good marketing. I am still sad that it did not receive the love it deserved at the moment of its release 😐 Anyway, great video! 👍 Your commentary was funny 😂

I watched this movie when it came out, and I still think about it from time to time. Its themes and its characters remain important to me to this day. It's cool to see someone watch it for the first time in 2022!

Ah this is such a fun movie I'm happy to see you react to it! ^^ ♡

I'm so down these days and you really cheer me up. Today is the death day of my Grandfather and I'm just depressed. So thank you. And this is one of my favorite movies ever

Definitely underrated 😁 thanks for watching this one really enjoyed your commentary as always, a favorite film and favourite content creator can't go wrong with that 🥳 hope you and everyone has a lovely day x

Your “Bear in the Big Blue House” reference had me hit subscribe in a second! Been binge watching your stuff and I love it!

It's not just tooth fairies that thinks Jack's hot, I remember him being one of the most popular husbando tying with HTTYD2's Hiccup. He's also shipped with Frozen's Elsa because of their winter aesthetic. Those were cringey times. And yes, my mom also complained about Jack's surprisingly very deep voice.

When it comes to Sandman, in Finland we call him Nukkumatti meaning Sleeping or Sleepy Matt~ He does bring sleeping dust and helps you fall asleep. Lot of children in 90s and 00s especially know him very well thanks to the childrens tv time on the 2nd channel

Going rate in this house is a dollar a tooth. My son did get a premium since he had to have the top four yanked out as a toddler, but yeah, this tooth fairy ain’t made of money.

If your looking for the owl one, thats called Guardians of Gahoole and is also an underrated masterpiece
