Watching Seabiscuit (2003) FOR THE FIRST TIME!! || Movie Reaction!! 

pumpkin, seabiscuit's stablemate, was actually a gelding (a neutured boy horse), hehe. they wouldn't have put a mare (girl horse) in with him, as it actually could have made him more aggressive and territorial. pumpkin and seabiscuit were the very best of friends and they went almost everywhere together :) btw if you're down for more horse movies, I highly recommend Secretariat (2010), The Man From Snowy River and its sequel (they're old and cheesy but they're pretty famous movies in the horse world and a huge part of many horse kids' childhood), Flicka (2006), Dreamer (2005), and The Black Stallion (1979). enjoyed the reaction! :D

Sometimes I wonder what they're teaching in schools these days. 😆 But yes, for a period of time in the US there was what's called the Prohibition. What was prohibited was alcohol. That was in the twenties and a little into the thirties. But that was how a lot of mobsters like Capone made money then (smuggling alcohol, illegal bars, etc.) That was why moonshining became a thing--people had to make their own liquor and then the cops would raid them. And there were bars they called speakeasies--to get into them, you had to know the password. It's pretty fascinating. You should look it up. 🙂

Secretariat is definitely another horse racing movie you’d love.

The Seabiscuit movie is very amazing. And all of the horses in this movie are very amazing.

Nothing like sitting on a fast horse when he breaks. It’s absolutely freeing.

I ride a minimum of three horses a day. Been doing it since I was 4. I have 5 sisters and we all did that every day of our lives. Now my grandchildren are riding with me. It’s a great life. Barrel racing has been good to us. Hi from Oklahoma, USA.

This movie is very accurate to the true story. Also, there is a great documentary on Sea Biscuit on you tube and also the original footage of the match race against War Admiral is on you tube

Seabiscuit is so loved they put a bronze statue of him at one of the most famous racetracks in America. Maybe Pimlico? Which is still there today. Also that isn't Rachel McAdams, i dont remember her name but she is in Definitely, Maybe. Great video

Fun Fact: the fastest horse breed are called Thoroughbreds with a top speed of 70.76 km per hour/43.97 mph

Seabiscuit!!!! classic. now you need to see the _original_ Teary-eyed horse movie, Black Beauty, lol

I love this movie.

I recommend you to see Jappeloup. It’s a French movie about a real jumping horse and his rider, they are legends for French horse riders and the movie is so good ! I don’t know if there is any English translation but at least it must have subtitles and the movie is so worth it !

For two other inspirational biopics from that era take a look at CINDERELLA MAN and 42. This one is a good one, no question. But the other two are better.

Great movie 🍿👍

12:23 nope... try Elizabeth Banks

Hiya nick watch top cat the movie

As an equestrian this movie is one of my favorite horse movies ever. I absolutely love it. The book is just as good. If u love horses I definitely recommend the 2006 Flicka it’s just as amazing.

Thank you for reacting to this movie❤️ No one ever reacts to this or Secretariat ...

If you’re ever interested in other horse movies, I’ve got some good ones that I can recommend: -Secretariat -Ride Like a Girl -National Velvet -War Horse -Black Beauty (specifically the 90’s version, I feel like that adaptation did the author of the book the most justice as far as accuracy is concerned) -The Horse Whisperer -Moondance Alexander -Flicka -The Derby Stallion -The Black Stallion Obviously you don’t have to watch them if you don’t want to, but I figured it wouldn’t hurt to recommend them in case you’re ever looking for more horse movies to see! 😁

That's not Rachel McAdams it's Elisabeth Banks but I don't blame you it does really look like her in the Notebook, threw me off at first too

My dad worked as a horseman for 50 years until he retired in 2021 at the age of 62 so it makes me happy watching this movie with you because horse race movies make me think of him, the next movie I highly recommend you watch is Racing Stripes about a Zebra who made a difference by becoming a race horse himself 😂👍🏻🦓🙏🏻

Seabiscuit is my favorite horse movie along with War Horse. Another great sports movie based on actual events is Miracle (2004) with Kurt Russell on the 1980 U.S. men's Olympic hockey team. The 43 anniversary just occured on Feb 22.

The 1994 Black Beauty is another good horse movie

Interesting fact: the actor who played the jockey who rode Seabiscuit in the match race against War Admiral (George Wolf) is a champion jockey in real life called Gary Stevens. Also, jockeys are not only responsible for guiding their horses. They're also responsible for the horse's safety during the race too. They are the ones who get their horses out of tough, dangerous spots and, in the case of injury, they're the first one to feel it and are charged with stopping a horse running at 40 MPH as fast and safe as possible to check what's wrong. This is one of my favorite movies of all time, and is definitely the best filmed horse racing movie that I have personally watched. So glad you reacted to it!

Nominated for 7 Oscars including Best Picture but lost to Lord Of The Rings: Return Of The King.

I always get this movie confused with Secretariat so I too was very confused by the opening of this reaction lol

The guy who played George Wolf in a hall of fame jockey in real life, his name is Gary Steven's. This movie is surprisingly historically accurate as well. The biggest complaints I have about it historically is that War Admiral was actually smaller than seabiscuit in real life (both were small horses, but War Admiral was so small that his nickname was actually "The Mighty Atom") and the final race was dramatized from the original race. Other than that it is amazingly historically accurate. To the point where the match race was actually replicated.

You should watch secretariat!!! The fastest horse of all time. His record still stands after around half a century, the film is great :)

Can u react to Despicable Me 3 please Nick Please

Nick, you should react to Mickey, Donald, Goofy : The Three Musketeers if you haven’t seen it yet (if it interests you of course) since you reacted to Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmas! It’s another great Mickey movie that is getting more recognition lately ever since a video was made about it on youtube and got a few million views, people started talking about how underrated it is and how it’s actually great. On my last rewatch I kept thinking about how you would really like it! I remember having the VHS of it lol

50 to 1 is another amazing horse racing movie about a horse from New Mexico

Peter Parker!

Cool fact, Toby Maguire (AKA Spiderman) played Seabiscut's rider.

Please forgive me if this has already been mentioned, but being a jockey is tough. The weight requirements alone are obscene. The things jockeys have to do to meet those weight requirements--you can imagine. And you would not believe the amount of abuse jockeys have to endure on social media. In the past few months, two American jockeys have taken their own lives. (There could be others. No one ever talks about them.) I just wanted to make sure you were aware of that.

Horse racing is so much fun to see in person. Most races are free to attend, so just bring whatever money you can afford to lose for betting on the races, and you'll have a pretty cheap, full day of entertainment. And even with the gambling and available booze, I've never seen anyone act like an a-hole. If anything, for a sporting event people are weirdly friendly. You get to know the people around you.

What about the Star Wars prequel trilogy and sequel trilogy?!?!?!?!

I love this movie along with secretariat and ruffian best horse racing movies based on real stories and I also love your movie communities

It's amazing how an animal can bring a country together and be so famous. We had the same with another horse in Denmark, called Tarok. He was a horse in harness-racing, and he would attract lines of multiple kilometers for every race he ran. When he died at only 9 years old, the news that night started with the line "Denmark on 4 legs has died". Even after his death he is immensely popular. A special race in his honor is run every year, and he even has a section in one of the biggest tracks named after him. He also has a movie made about his and his owners' life, much like Seabiscuit.

Whenever I need a little healing, this is my go-to movie. Love that you watched it.

I've loved this movie since I was a little kid. Secretariat is also an awesome movie! Also, if you can find it, there's a movie called Flash that's about a horse and stars an actor named Lucas Black when he was a kid and it's one of the best horse movies i've ever seen! Racing stripes is also a fun movie.

Love this movie! Glad to see someone reacting to it!

If you liked this movie, "The black stallion" is another good movie :)

Amazing reaction as always Nick! 👏Also, can I recommend you a movie called "Mary & Max"?

Do the angry birds movie 🐤

Can you please react to these movies - The Angry Birds Movie - Wish Dragon - Vivo - The Secret Life of Pets - Good Burger - Spies in Disguise - DC League of Super Pets - Minions 2 : The Rise of Gru

The radio guy (William H. Macy) makes me want to see you react to Fargo now :) That's my favorite movie. Macy happens to be in it too, but a completely different character, of course.

The fact is that Toby Maguire is a very best friend to Leonardo DiCaprio since, the early 90s.

Now you gotta watch secretariat

You should react to Talladega Nights:The Ballad of Ricky Bobby. Cody already reacted to it, but it’s a really good and funny movie.

I really hope you're going to check out The Horse Whisperer at one point, as well. It's an amazing and beautiful movie and I feel like you're going to like it a lot.

I beg of you to watch Black Beauty from 1994. I grew up watching it and still can't watch or listen to it's soundtrack without shedding tears😢

What’s next?

The Frank R. Howard Memorial Hospital in Willits, CA, which still operates to this day, was initially established with help from Charles Howard in 1928.

Tobey Maguire did suffer a back injury from this movie. That is why he had to do the back injury scene in Spider-Man 2.

Fun Fact: This movie was the reason Tobey Maguire almost didn't return for Spider-Man 2 as he had injured his back during this movie's filming

Nick you should react to Whip It, it's my favourite Elliot Page movie but so so underrated!

That’s not Rachel McAdams. It’s Elizabeth Banks.

That horse should have never been able to beat War Admiral. WA was a phenomenon. Best bred horse I. History at the time. Talented and long and lean. But breeding does not determine your fate. The Biscuit was special. Secretariat was beyond special.

Loved your reaction--love this movie. Thank you!

My favourite horse themed movie is Secretariat definately worth a watch Nicky

Yay! Love this movie so much! Thanks to your Patron who picked it for you. Awesome choice!👏👏

Different horses have different places they prefer to run in the field. Some horses like to lead, some prefer to be near the front, some like to hang around the middle of the field, and some like to stay at the back. In general, it's the jockey's job to keep a horse where it wants to be during the race, so that it can challenge for position at the end.

if you want to watch more horse movies, please watch Black Beauty or Secretariat!

Sorry, you millenials always need a tutorial to understand every scene.... so annoying

Yes! Yes! Yes! I LOCE this movie. And I’ve never seen anyone else react to it…

Lol only in Mexico. New Mexico is part of the USA.

The parents left him because they couldn’t afford to feed him and care for him

The actress playing the wife was Elizabeth Banks

another toby maguire movie that you should definitely see if you haven't already is spiderman, all three movies.

Wow thanks for reacting to this gem. Not many do.

Please do Secretariat next! Greatest racehorse of all time!

Such an uplifting movie. I haven’t seen it for a long time, but so glad you reacted to it. It was a lovely refresher of the story.

"A Nice Ride" The ending race music hits sooooooo hard

I love this movie so much. I'm not a fan of the horse racing industry as such as the horses don't usually get treated like Seabiscuit does here but it's amazing to see how it brought so many ppl together! Really cool that you watched and liked it! Secretariat is not as great a movie as this but one of the greatest racehorses so maybe you find that interesting too:)

This movie is very nostalgic for me.

I’d love to see you react to Hidalgo!!

This is such a great film like Secretariat and Pharlap.

Not Rachel McAdams.....

We appreciate your reactions. We look forward to seeing more amazing content on this channel.

Do you run cross-country, Nick?

Please react to RRR movie

I favorite horse movie

Great Reaction!!

Great Movie

Boy you are just on a roll. I mean, I know you were absent but still. Anyway, please react to "Darby O' Gill and the Little People" during the month of March. It would be the perfect St. Patrick's Day movie. 😉

I'm surprised you didn't know Red was blind in one eye. I figured you just left out the part where they show his POV, looking at the girl he was sleeping with after he healed from that boxing match that busted his eye. You can see him turning his head to look at her, and half the screen is black and then moves over to show her. And often, when they showed his POV while riding, they would only show the left side of Seabiscuit.

The true story of how a bottle of glue is created.

What a lovely reaction. This movie really showed what it meant for America during the depression and how it managed to pull itself back up again.

It wasn't Seabiscuit He was cursing out walking on the Walker. Cuz the trainer sought Tobey Maguire then Andrade as soon as they went to the next Scene It said the first time I'd seen Seabiscuit huge walking through the fog
