Mitch, Scott and Kirstie have been friends with Todrick since even before there ever was a Pentatonix. They are all from Texas so they have known eachother for years. Todrick is a very talented guy just as PTX are
Yess😊...Jerod believe me when i say that Todrick Hall is a genius at production, directing, acting and song writing/ rap and he's also a dance choreography he is SOO Good at putting these type of things together. He's so freakin talented genius and i don't think his brain EVER sleeps lol. I don't get why he is not well known for his amazing Telant. I hope u get to react to more of him
Todd was on American Idol,, Simon didnt like him because he was too theatrical..so like many American Idol contestants, Todd proved his worth . His theatre musical shows sell out all over the place and he had an MTV show for awhile. Thanks Jerod for doing this one. I could tell that you enjoyed it. There is another video they did recently with Toddrick. As soon as your caught up with superfruits reaction to toddricks spoof on PTX ill get the file name to you.
This is my favorite music video of all time! Kirstie completely knocked this out of the park!! Todrick, Scott, Avi & Mitch have all said that they loved doing this project because it was Kirstie's first real chance to shine, and boy did she! If you pay close attention to the final shot, just before Kirstie clicks her heels, you can see Scott giving her a quick "proud big brother" look!
The trio has been friends with Todrick since High School back in Texas. I don't believe it has won any awards but it should have. I wish they would make a full DVD of it and sell it.
YES! This was my first introduction to them back in 2013. You are actually one of the few reactors that catch or comment on the "'Lion'" on the cold hard ground". You will likely get a bunch of Todrick requests and he is AMAZING! I will leave those requests to the fans that know more of his catalog as I'm not as fluent in his stuff yet but that's Todrick's deal. He takes a lot of Disney stories and puts a twist on it. I recommend a reaction to Todrick Hall "Pentatodrix" - it's a Pentatonix parody where Todrick sings all the parts. Don't worry - they are actually really good friends. Todrick is on the Superfruit Channel a lot, check out the Condom Challenge. Also, if you have Netflix - Todrick has a little documentary thing on there currently. I knew you'd love this one!
Great reaction! Todrick's "Straight outta oz visual album" & his newer "forbidden visual album" will Blow your mind. Keep in mind that Todrick hall wrote ALL the songs in both the vissual album. He is a brilliant genius!
Thanks for another fun reaction, Jerod! This was an amazing performance! A Broadway show from the comfort of our own homes! I'm looking forward to your next Pentatonix reaction, whichever one you choose. It's great to be able to enjoy their talent with someone who always gives such honest, hearfelt, and intelligent reactions. Maybe do Imagine next? It's very powerful and the harmonies are incredible.
One of the best videos done. It should have tons of awards. Glad you enjoyed it. Todrick is a phenomenal talent. Take a peek as his medleys.. you won't be disappointed!
Loved your reaction and that you picked up on some of the smaller details! ❤️ Todrick has many amazing videos as well. I think you would like ‘Peter Perry’ or ‘4 the 90’s’. His productions are always very elaborate and he has a killer voice!
It is 5:18 am and I have not gone to bed. I'm still up watching one Jerod M Reaction after another. It's all your fault. Goodnight. (And what a one to end on!) "Wizard of Ahhhs" is incredible. As you said, it's ingenious, and the mastermind behind it is Todrick. Rumor has it that Scott and Todrick had a falling out and no longer collaborate, but I keep hoping either that it's not true or that they make up, because PTX plus Todrick is sheer wizardry.
"I like your beard" 😂 that's my favorite part of this video and I'm glad you noticed it. Although this was a genius collaborative effort, I love how it showcases Kirstie's talent in multiple roles. She has since performed on Broadway, but this proved long ago that she is a STAR. Great reaction!
Great reaction!! This is such a fun video..I am a huge Pentaholic(just in case you haven't noticed,lol).they do another video with Todrick called Black and white. Todrick has a video titled Peter Perry. a Katy Perry/Peter Pan story that is so fun to watch. I would love to see you react to Pentatonix Imagine and Say something!! I love your reactions, they are so sincere and enjoyable!
There is something about the power at the end that always brings tears to my eyes, especially when Judy Garland pops up on the screen! Todrick is SUCH a musical genius!! He's so creative! Please please react to more of his videos!! You'll be blown away!! I'll link a couple of my favorites😁
He grew up with Scott and Kirstie and Mitch in Arlington, Texas. Check out "Black and White" by Todrick Hall with Pentatonix. It's fabulous. And then take some time and see several of the Todrick Hall shows (yes, he does Broadway!) Don't know what they put in the Arlington water, but it sure produces great singers/dancers/composers.
The dog is Todrick's dog named, of course, Toto. You may have already heard that "Pentatodrick" is him doing their "Daft Punk" and "Save the World/Don't You Worry Child" (Swedish House Mafia cover). You will get more of his humor if you watch PTX's "Save the World" first.
Lipstick Nick, her real name is Nicole, did the makeup. Todrick did another song with them, Black and White with Scott, Mitch, and Kirstin, which is from his Straight Outta Oz album. Speaking of, you should also react to his visual album for it, as well as the one for Forbidden. Todrick is a really good singer and puts a lot of hard work into his videos.
I watched it for the first time on the day it hit RU-vid. Every time I see it I feel the same as the first. Todrick produces a LOT of professional quality content like this. I enjoy how it begins in black and white like the movie, transitions into vibrant color just like the movie... But I also like how the first shots were outdoor landscapes, the next shots looked like movie lot sets, and as the video went on it brought it into closer sets until the finale looked to be shot on a high school stage. No awards were won, but I agree it SHOULD have won some.
You really should watch Todrick Hall’s “Straight Outta Oz” it’s also the story of the Wizard of Oz but with original songs by Todrick that are tied to current social issues. It’s really great.
Toderick has many many videos but there is a short one . 2 minutes I think (or less) that really takes your breath away called "defying gravity". Check it out.
Great reaction! Todrick did an amazing job putting this all together. Even after dozens of views, I still get soppy when Mitch and Avi sing at the end. Todrick was also from Arlington, like the Trio, and they go way back. You got the "lyin" pun, but do you know the "Let's Get Some Shoes" reference? You might want to check it out - it's a cult classic but very strange. Please react to a funny video that Todrick did called Pentatodrix. Also, there is a behind the scenes video for The Wizard of Ahhhs that is fun and interesting.
Jerod, you should watch Pentatodrix, Todrick's satire of PTX's Daft Punk medley. Todrick, Scott, Mitch and Kirstin have been friends since their Arlington, Texas days.
Todrick Hall is a master of elaborate productions. His channel has a lot of inventive covers, mashups and medleys. He has now gone on to elaborate productions of his own original music. In 2016, he re-visited his favourite childhood musical, Wizard of Oz, with his semi-autobiographical visual album Straight Outta Oz. He revised it a year later, adding a bunch of new songs. Kirstin, Mitch and Scott are featured on the track Black & White. There are a lot of other notable guest performers including Jordin Sparks, Amber Riley, Joseph Gordon-Levitt and RuPaul. The entire visual album video is about 71 minutes long but all the songs have also been posted as separate videos on his channel. Check it out; I'm sure you'll be blown away. He has a new visual album entitled Forbidden with which he is currently touring the world.
please react to Todricks full vision album "straight outta Oz" Deluxe edition. It is on his channel. It is basically this movie musical you talked about and one of the best things i ever heard or seen of. + Trio is featured there
Some things shouldn’t end! Absolutely brilliant concept and acting. The sheer talent involved is unbelievable. Hats off to Todrixk and PTX. Id watch the full movie too!
I loved the reaction, i just watched all your ptx reactions in two days! I would love to see you react to more of kirstin's stuff like "All Night" and "Bad Weather"! Also a live version of Can't Sleep Love at popspring (its their first original single)
Read thru the comments -- that last "home" medley was a mashup of about five different songs! This shows the incredible talent of both PTX and Todrick. By the way -- Todrick is from the same area of Texas as the trio and they knew each other from way before.
Check out Todrick Hall's Straight Outta Oz, he did make a full length musical. It is absolutely brilliant. His most recent musical album "Forbidden" is if anything even more amazing.
Hi Jerod! Isn’t it fantastic! Pure talent! I agree with you on how well they picked not only the songs but who was going to play what character. A lot of thought went into this. One of my favorite musical movie doing just that is “Across The Universe”, using all Beatles’ songs (gulp!!) to create and carry a great and fascinating story. Creative process up the roof! Love your reactions.
Hallelujah! Your reaction has slightly restored my faith. Would it surprise you that you are one of very very very few reactors who actually understood the concept of this video. And you're the only one I've seen that got it on the very first song. And don't even get me started on the amount of people who have never seen, heard of, or understand Wizard of Oz. Watching these has been eye opening in that regard...and makes me sad.
I grew up in Oz so there’s that… Thank you for your comment! I appreciate your kind words and understand your observation. I too have seen the one who have no idea and it’s tough to watch.
I LOVE Todrick!! Hey Jerod could you please react to Todrick's whole visual album "Straight Outta Oz" You can watch it in order. It's supposed to be autobiographical. AMAZING original music and crazy good visuals. I love them all!! (Lyin' To Myself is one if my favorites) Love your reactions!
I suggest Britney and the Beat by him next. That one gets me all the time. He's from Arlington, Texas like them so they've known each other for a long time. He also was a contestant on American Idol. He's done a Pentatodrix video about them that should be watched as well, and a song called called Black and White. He's also been on the Superfruit channel doing a condom challenge. All of these would be fun to react to.
Jerod, I absolutely love your PTX reaction videos. I am a relatively new subscriber to your channel. You are awesome! Thank you for all the rave reviews of PTX! They are well deserving of all the accolades they receive! This is one of my most favorite videos of them -- I grew up on the original Wizard of Oz movie, and this tribute is just off the charts great! Thanks again! Keep the PTX videos coming!
Jerod, also, out of all the reaction videos I have watched of PTX, yours are truly the best! You are the most knowledgeable! I used to do the kind of things PTX does (minus the beat boxing) in my younger years (before I lost my chops due to pneumonia), so I feel 'right at home' with them! You see the same things in them that I see -- they are truly insanely talented folks! Now that I have found you, I don't watch any other reaction videos of PTX! You're the best!!
Todd Rock’s has many other amazing tales on other movies etc as well and they were amazing as well!! You shld really check out and react to more of his videos haha
My computer sits on a 49's table....when Avi gets started the thing rumbles...I can feel it through my keyboard....then I have to listen again....and again...and again...etc....
Please react to Peter Perry as in (PeterPan) its almost just like Wizard of ahhhs except this one is with all of Katy Perry's songs and there's also britney and the beast Todricks videos are so much fun to watch
Actually I think this was Todrick's take, not Pentatonix's take. Todrick also grew up in Arlington TX and I think he knew Mitch, Scott and Kirstin then. I think there is a full production of this but not sure PTX was in it.
Linda Morris yes, I should have said todrick ft ptx, but I didn't quite know until watching the end bit that he was the mastermind behind it. He seems to be a genius.
Todrick is a HUGE wizard of Oz fan. He did an album and tour called Straight outta Oz. My favorite music videos from that album are “Low” and “Wrong B*tch” and “Ay Papi”. I’ll try to find the links cause he did a couple of versions of each but the better ones are the more recent versions. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oexhZ7FKLdU.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Us59fuIVgAk.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ccJF_g72Tho.html
Smart fact their you tube channel ptxofficial makes over a million dollars a yr. from you tube . Superfruit mahes almost a million a year. On their you tube channel . They made it work.
Todrick loves the wizard of Oz. The dog Kirsty is holding his Todro keepog whose name happens to be toto. Check out low featuring rupaul. That is also In keeping with the story of the wizard of Oz. And he has a video which is over an hour long called straight outta oz reactionj. There is a behind the scenes video That goes with this 1. Always check to see if there is a behind the scenes because they do do them just not very frequently. Most reactors to tack it on to the end of the video
Have you reacted to Todrick’s visual album for Straight Outta Oz?! It’s so amazing. He’s so talented. There’s an updated one with new songs, but please react to the original one!!!!
Thank you for all the reaction vids, sir! This is one of my fravourites and really lets Kirsten shine! Here is the link to the behind the scenes for this vid : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-C6yQa3oC7gM.html , for your viewing pleasure. haha Enjoy! I totally recommend watching more of Todrick Halls Videos as well.
He actually went to a different high school in the same school district in Arlington. Todrick went to Bowie and the Trio went to Martin. He was also a few years older and had already graduated by the time the others got to high school. They all knew each other from community musical theater though.
Yesss...Todrick is amazing. You should check out and react to his music videos for Straight outta Oz. Thank you for reacting to this. I'll include links to a couple of his videos. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Us59fuIVgAk.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oexhZ7FKLdU.html
Here is something totally cool by Tod and Tori Kelly that will bring a huge smile to your face. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ahp6vvZ9Wz4.html
