i had no idea there was a web version, and i thought this video would’ve been much more popular. really underrated and well done, especially including bits that were interesting even if they didn’t technically count for differences
My best guess is "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" was changed to avoid legal action from Disney, I doubt they'd care but they probably didn't want to risk it given how hard it is to win against Disney.
Hilariously, Disney constantly tries to erase that song from everything (like the theme parks, for example) because it was in that one movie they made that is mildly racist. I figure if they emphatically want to stop using it, they shouldn't be able to own it anymore.
I remember the original version, I didn't realize it wasn't common knowledge that it came from Poptropica. Edit: This comment is wrong twice. The book came first and the online book was on Funbrain.
You probably know this already, but the page with Greg getting dropped in the water was reused in Awesome Friendly Kid but it's Rowley who drops Greg (by accident), he's on a rock instead of a ditch, and Greg was chasing him with a worm on the stick
I was hoping someone would cover this, it's pretty cool seeing how the original version clears up some minor plot holes, what was reused, and show entire subplots that were cut.
I first saw the online version on funbrain. I was reading it as it came out. Does ANYONE remember that Piper Elizabeth Matthews used to be named Jennifer Lynn Phillips? I swear I remember this and being confused when she was later renamed.
I never saw that, but I believe you. There is evidence that the online version was retroactively tampered with, even after the print books were published. For instance, prior to 2011, Marty Porter had an entirely different name, but the online version was later altered to match his name from the book. And Stinky Williams was consistently called "Stinky" originally throughout the entire book, but a later edit has one page calling him Fregley (who is a completely different character even in the online version, but the page calling Stinky Fregley is the scene where he wrestles Greg, so it appears that a revision was attempted to make it match with the print book, then it was realized the revision was continuity error and dropped, but a small side-effect from it remained). I wouldn't be surprised if Piper Matthews was originally called Jennifer Phillips when the online version initially went up, and then changed later. The revision was a very early one if that's true though, as I read the online version in early 2009 and it was still Piper Matthews at that point. Since Holly Hills doesn't appear in the first print book, my theory is that Jeff Kinney was originally going to change Jennifer Phillips' name to Piper Matthews when he finally introduced her in the second book, and revised the online version to match up with this, but then he ended up calling her Holly Hills instead when he finally published the second book, meaning that Jennifer Phillips' is the actual original name and Piper Matthews is a residual from an early draft of the second book that was retroactively edited into the online version. I honestly hate that the online version was retroactively edited to make it closer to the print books, as that's an erasure of history (historical revisionism), which makes me wonder if there are any other edits that we don't know about because they were never documented. But, at least the online book mostly stayed intact.
I was reading the online version just a few minutes ago, and Piper is referred to as "Jennifer" on page 632. It mentions Greg hanging out with Lori (Piper's sister) because he wants to "have a better shot at dating her younger sister, Jennifer." I think the online version *did* originally call her Jennifer throughout the entire book, and Kinney missed this one spot when he altered it later on. I only had suspicions at first when this initial comment was made, but this new finding pretty much confirms it.
@@curtthegamer934 Except, on the page where they first introduced the Hills family (or in the online book's case, the Matthews family), there seemed to be a girl in front of Piper, in the black sleeveless shirt and wavy blonde hair. She seemed to be in between Piper and Lori's ages, and was axed when the webcomic went to print. EDIT (8/10/2024 at 10:44 P.M.): I said this, because there were originally 4 Matthews daughters in the webcomic, which got cut down to 2 (Heather and Holly) in the books, then increased to 3 in the movies.
@@davids.7567 Yeah, the Matthews family has four daughters. The Wimpy Kid wiki actually refers to one of the two unnamed sisters as Jennifer, but this is never directly mentioned in the webcomic itself, so I think whoever wrote that into the article simply just wasn't aware that Jennifer was Piper's original name, and was confused by the one reference to it that remained.
I remember the original version from when I was a kid; I was seven when the first book came out and was definitely somewhat familiar with the franchise already. Didn't read the whole thing though, and I'm surprised by how much content clearly not aimed at kids is in there.
There actually WAS a memory card for the game boy. It's called the Mega Memory Card, and it copies the save files from the actual cartridges onto it's own internal storage

I think some of the stuff from the first version was more relatable or realistic which I like but I get why they would get rid of some of it for the final kids version.
The only thing I could guess with the flub up of a "Memory Card for a Game Boy" was that Kinney may have meant Gamecube but completely spaced on it at time of writing.
Thank you for uploading this. I remember when i was younger i found the online version first and when i found the physical version immediately picked up on some of the changes. I've always been curious what the extent of the changes were.
When I was a kid I loved poptropica and dairy of a wimpy kid and knew they did cross over stuff but I had no idea it came from there until seeing this video, that was like a bombshell after being alive for 20 years
Books seven and eight did borrow some stuff from the online book. We have Greg dreaming about winning a "best biceps" contest, someone having a nightmare about monkeys in the walls (Grandpa in the online book, Uncle Gary in the physical book), Grandpa getting a girlfriend, Greg pressing his hand against Aunt Cakey's iron, and Ellie the stuffed elephant whose trunk, ears, and tail have been ripped off.
No wait, I didn't know it was a gex theme. There was a Playlist of unused mother 64 music and that was one of them. Don't wanna spread misinformation. Lol
The only version of this I read! I think It was only after the real books were out. Took me years to find out that it wasn't actually just the first book
Can someone explain to me of kid’s books for 8 year olds have regulations because the information I found was inconsistent and I think it’s just there but without much effort put in because everything else has an actual age rating system with constant guidelines.
OMG OMG OMG! I have watched this video on TH-cam with G SMOKE GUY 🐐🚬0⃣3⃣😜🖕💛🖕💛 and Black Eric Cartman and it was awesome! I loved the Diary of a Wimpy Kid book because it's very fun to read! I noticed the changes in the book because I didn't knew Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah existed in one of the books! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Greg is forever stuck in middle school. I wish Greg actually grew up with me when I went to high school
Probably couldn't stay a kids book if that happened 💀😭🙏
I know. I think having him grow up and then stop making the books once he’s figured shit out would be a good ending.
Or maybe a self aware book were Greg and Rodrick have been wondering on why they're the same age for too long and desperate to find out what's going on..

The Poptropica/Online Version is less kid friendly than the books in general.

the sliding backgrounds of the book covers is also a cool touch

Finally, someone talks about the early online version of the book! I remember reading those on my computer back when I was a kid. Good video

@@navy_ranger5657 what? Are you trying to be funny?
@@Jupiter_Rsabbit Nah, it actually happened. It was an edited meme, and they still made it for kids.
@@navy_ranger5657 if they made it for kids I'd hope it was marked as such. I mean Spongebob is a kids show

I haven't watched it yet, but it'll probably be really good
Great vid, had no idea this version existed
This video is gonna blow up such a important topic for a bunch of 2000s kids and the new Gen
