Devon Bostick as Rodrick was the HIGHEST OF HIGHLIGHTS FOR THIS FRANCHISE 🥹 when I saw Oppenheimer, I couldn’t see him in the movie without thinking of Rodrick 🥹👏🏼
Christopher Nolan mentioned in an interview for Oppenheimer that Rodrick Rules. Rodrick definitely deserves his own spinoff. Like, c’mon! Why haven’t they done that yet?! We deserve it!
I still have fond memories of the first three movies. Although the more I watch them, the more I realize Greg was pretty much the main villain. Rowley deserves so much better.
Definitely not a villain he’s a child trying to fit in literally the most normal non villain thing lol he’s literally getting bullied at home and school 😂
yeah Rodrick pulls a prank on him and still gives him bits of help and he could find anything hidden under that bed or his room. I think he's just protecting and trying to scare his brother away to hide stuff from him and keep his innocence, and he pisses on him!! And always plays the victim card through all 3 of them. I dont think ive watched any of them in close to a decade. But i remember I watched them on dvd like once every 6 months for years. Atleast the first 2. The 2nd will never not be a perfect film ever
@@Antwannnnnah the first ones great, but rodrick rules is the peak of this film series, its really just a good movie period. Still holds up really well
Bro we didn’t even have a piece of cheese on the blacktop of my school but this movie had such an influence on us that we used to do this anyway and say someone had the “cheese touch” 11:26
everyone in my elementary school was obsessed with this movie so we would let a hamburger patty rot on the blacktops and say ppl had the hamburger touch 😭😭😭 the janitors would clean it up everytime but kids would keep putting a new one
I read books 1-6 when these moves came out, I preordered the 7th thru the scholastic book fair, and I got a week before it came out on in stores. Everyone treated it like a Marvel movie, my friends kept begging me not to spoil it for them
39:18 HUGE departure from the book. Say whatever else you want about him, Zoo-Wee-Mama WAS Greg's idea. First he wrote and drew everything, then Rowley asked for more to do, so Greg let him draw. He didnt like that, so he let Rowley write the speech bubbles. He didnt like that, either, so they parted ways. Greg came up with Creighton the Cretin, submitted it and actually won! BUT the editor of the paper completely changed the cartoon to make it more "educational" for students, to where it was then called Creighton the Curious Student, to where they started calling Greg a suck up, so he pulled the cartoon altogether. Which is when they replaced it with Rowleys edition of Zoo Wee Mama, and when Greg confronted him about it, Rowley said it was all HIS idea.
Rowleys parents are safety freaks and won't let him dress up as anything remotely dangerous or violent. They took off the knight's helmet, cut a hole so he could see better, made him wear a sweater over the rest of it so he wouldn't get cold, put reflective tape on the sweater, and replaced the sword with a glow stick. I kid you not.
I was in Kindergarten when this movie came out and I had my own Rowley who was my best friend and cousin. He's a lot more of a normal person who can just go with the flow and I'm a ball of anxiety who just keeps to himself. I was a lot like Greg in Kindergarten where I wanted nothing more than to be adored by everyone and thought I deserved to be. I got humbled big time when I moved and started first grade at a new school where I was liked even less than I was in Kindergarten. I lived in total obscurity from then up until High School Graduation, but I know the friends I made were real friends. Life is better after school.
Since you mentioned middle school and Superbad in the same sentence. I hope and pray some rejects haven’t seen Good Boys. It’s also by Seth Rogen. It’s pretty much Superbad but middle schoolers 😂
Im someone who sat on the floor against a wall in middle school during lunch with two friends who voluntarily sat with me. It wasn’t so awkward because i was just happy i wasnt alone.
The Next movie. Rodrick Rules is actually a classic so you definitely check it out. It is like the empire strikes back of this movie. The 3rd one is pretty good as well
I was in elementary school when the book & movie dropped. They made such a profound mark on my grade. When the book came out, I sorta remember the cheese touch thing being such a problem that teachers had to stop reading it or skip around the cheese touch parts during reading time. When the movie came out, kids were constantly tossing school cheeses on the playground sidewalk & A new cheese got placed everytime the old one got picked up. If I remember correctly, I think the book was also temporarily removed out of the school library at some schools & you had to be "mature enough" to check it out when it came back.
I was in middle school when this movie came out and it’s crazy how much I relate to some of the things in this movie. I grew up in Sleepy Hollow, NY and as you can expect, Halloween was MASSIVE in my town so me and my friends would go around town getting up to all sorts of trouble. We had phones so we could coordinate but almost none of the things we did were caught on video or photo for social media. It was a great time to grow up and I wouldn’t have it any other way
i love that these movies came out when i was actually in middle school! i hold these movies so near and dear to my heart! the sequel is my and basically everyone's favorite movie from the franchise!
The og family!!! Omg, this is bringing back so many memories from reading the books as a kid and watching the movies. Those drawings are in the book and the book is literally set up like a journal with illustrations. Also, fun fact, the actor that plays Rodrick is in Saw 6!
This trilogy holds a special place in my heart, can't wait for you guys to watch Dog Days and Roderick Rules next! Also fun fact for SAW fans: The actor who plays Roderick was in SAW VI.
Greg and Rowley are my favorite characters. I don't like the way he treats Rowley sometimes but other than that he's awesome. I don't remember the book too much but I think they did a good job adapting it.
So much nostalgia, movie came out when I was 10. First time I could be like “this was different or the same from the book.” Since I loved reading this series in elementary school!
Nahhh I got a late ass notification, BUT I CLICKED SO FUCKING FAST 😭 THESE MOVIES ARE MY CHILDHOOD!! I was 8-9 when the first movie came out and I loved it as a kid, but ydk how many times I watched all the movies when I was entering middle school 🤣🤣😂😂 I still love these movies, even at 22! I still watch them 🤫 I put the first movie on the other day and my mom goes “oh Lordy” 😂 cuz she knows me and knows that these movies were watched religiously by me lol. Rewatching it the other day tho, made me realize how serious Rodrick was being when he was telling Greg what not to do😂 I should’ve listened to Rodrick cuz he’s so frl
Greg and Barbie Roxy! Lol love you Roxy. Happy to see y’all watch this. Grew up heavily on these books and loved whenever the movies came out. Hope y’all love this! ❤❤
Wild.. few days ago I was gonna look for a reaction to this movie. Thats why I love the Rejects. Pure reactions, upload consistency, and I love how they react to different movies and tv shows. It would be cool to see some rejects watching movies and shows other rejects have already watched, though. Also PLS BRING BACK ROXY AND TARA CHUCKY
I remember the cheese touch in elementary school 💀😭 in high school someone threw a piece of cheese on a light fixture and it stayed up there the whole year and never molded, it’s probably still there 😂
Holy shit! You guys are reacting to all of my 2000s childhood favorites! Can’t wait for you to watch the cinematic masterpiece that is Roderick Rules! Also, please, please, PLEASE react to the Spy Kids series and Sharkboy and Lavagirl!!!
Im so glad you guys are watching these movies I love them so much, the first film is about freindship, the second is about the brotherly bond, and the third is about the father son relationship. Such a good trilogy (dont watch the fourth one)
My mom's friend's grandaughter has the book collection & her grandma would show me which one she needs next. Also, forgot Chloe Grace Moretz was in this movie.
When i was a kid, i got the first book and the DVD of the movie and I was hooked on Greg's story for a good part of my childhood, i still watch the movies today LOL
The sequel of this movie is one of those rare occasions where it’s better than the original. Rodrick rules is definitely a childhood favorite of mine. Amazing movie, and I hope you guys end up watching it!
I really grew up with the books and the movies, recently the author came to my city and i got to meet him. It was a dream come true, the next movie- Rodrick rules is my favourite one Dog days also has its moments fs The Fourth movie- the long haul Which is a reboot isn’t that great but it’s not terrible also Love this franchise!
Crazy how Peyton List and Karan Brat from Jessie and Bunk’d were both in the same cast in Diary of a Wimp Kid 2 and 3. So many famous celebs in this movie
Rough schools don’t put the doors on the stalls for a number of reasons , we did shirts and skins from 7th to 12 grade and showering was REQUIRED 7-12 grade , so required you’d fail PE if you didn’t shower! That was all our schools in my area in the 90’s lol so ye sits true lol
These are some of the few movies made for kids that are still legitimately really funny as an adult, Rodrick still cracks me up and he’s even better in the second one
i do wanna say that, yes, sometimes schools remove the stall doors in the boys bathrooms. i graduated hs about two years ago, but in my middle AND high school i know that stall doors were taken off the hinges in boys bathrooms on a lot of occasions. it'd usually be because of drug use in the stalls, but occasionally it'd be because a door was literally ripped off the hinges or something by students fucking around, and it'd just HAVE to be removed 💀💀. so, the stall doors in the boys bathroom being missing isn't abuse from the school or anything,, i think it's 100% just implying that there's a lot of troublemakers in the school (that like to hang out in the bathroom) :pp. it's why Rodrick tells greg not to go to the bathroom lmaoo
Im 17, i remember from the ages of 8-11 everyone had these books in school, it was THE books. And then i watched the movies and i loved how they brought the drawings to life, and like half of this movie is quotes from the original book
Speaking of middle school movies, one nickelodeon movie that I don’t hear people talk about anymore is Harriet the spy!! I hope to see you guys react to that one day!
Robert Capron (the kid who played Rowley) was unfortunately typecast as the “fat goofy best friend” for a while after DoaWK. He didn’t get many chances to explore other roles for a while, and apparently one of his auditions was just him eating a sandwich shirtless. He ended up getting really fit and ripped when he got older so he could audition for MCU Spider-Man, but didn’t get the part.

i see him as Rodrick and Jasper from the 100
Wow I didn’t know he was in Oppenheimer
He’s in Saw 6 too!
@@reidforman3428 It threw me off guard, when I saw him in Saw 6!! 😱😱😱
Christopher Nolan mentioned in an interview for Oppenheimer that Rodrick Rules.
Rodrick definitely deserves his own spinoff. Like, c’mon! Why haven’t they done that yet?! We deserve it!
I still have fond memories of the first three movies. Although the more I watch them, the more I realize Greg was pretty much the main villain. Rowley deserves so much better.
1000%
Definitely not a villain he’s a child trying to fit in literally the most normal non villain thing lol he’s literally getting bullied at home and school 😂
yeah Rodrick pulls a prank on him and still gives him bits of help and he could find anything hidden under that bed or his room. I think he's just protecting and trying to scare his brother away to hide stuff from him and keep his innocence, and he pisses on him!! And always plays the victim card through all 3 of them.
I dont think ive watched any of them in close to a decade. But i remember I watched them on dvd like once every 6 months for years. Atleast the first 2. The 2nd will never not be a perfect film ever
Rowley a real one
FACTS. The more I rewatch it the more I just hate Greg in the first movie. Absolutely insufferable
Greg, watching a movie about Greg, is so Greg of Greg
Watch the sequel rodrick rules it’s so much better
the second and third books are my favorite which is what the second film is based on so...
did i read that in the wrong tone? this film is a classic
@@Antwannnn it is. But Rodrick Rules is a lot better
@@Antwannnnnah the first ones great, but rodrick rules is the peak of this film series, its really just a good movie period. Still holds up really well
And dog days
Rodrick Rules is the best one
I agree
Yes
Don’t call me, don’t come by my house…. We’re done 🥶
Such an iconic line.
One of the best classic school movies for sure
Bro we didn’t even have a piece of cheese on the blacktop of my school but this movie had such an influence on us that we used to do this anyway and say someone had the “cheese touch” 11:26
everyone in my elementary school was obsessed with this movie so we would let a hamburger patty rot on the blacktops and say ppl had the hamburger touch 😭😭😭 the janitors would clean it up everytime but kids would keep putting a new one
Yeah I remember trying to start the Cheese Touch as a kid
OMG 😭😭❤️
the animated bit is actually the art style of the book
I read books 1-6 when these moves came out, I preordered the 7th thru the scholastic book fair, and I got a week before it came out on in stores. Everyone treated it like a Marvel movie, my friends kept begging me not to spoil it for them
😂😂😂
I remember I used to get them as a kid. I was so excited every time a new one came out my mom would buy it for me and I finish it in like an hour 😂
I used to watch this movie Almost every morning before school as I ate breakfast.
This movie brings back Sooooo many memories.
Rodrick’s actor was actually in a few Saw movies and even Oppenheimer. And the Tv show ‘The 100’
He was only in Saw 6 but still really cool
Did you grow up on the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books???
100%
I grew on movies😭
They’re the only books I’ve ever read start to finish at the age of 23, truly fun at the time, excited to watch this reaction
Yes, loved them. Also the other one which is Dork Diaries.
yes I remember being so excited during every school book fair because that’s what they would come out!!

I remember seeing this film. AND THEN RODRICK RULES HAPPENED 🔥 that one is definitely the best movie 🥹 I can’t wait for you and Roxie to watch it 😆
the fact that the kid at 48:29 went on to kill his own mom as a teenager still gives me the creeps whenever I watch this movie
And he wanted to kill the Canadian prime minister
his stare was killer esque looking back on it now...
He did *what*?
That’s..not good…
Source?
I didn’t know that until you mentioned had to have a look on the internet his name is Ryan Grantham.
Cant wait until Greg finds our Tori from Cobra Kai was in the sequels.
Huh😳
devon bostick aka rodrick was in oppenheimer!!
This franchise is literally my childhood🤣I love it dearly. It’s just pure fun both the books and movie
Even weirder: Angie didn't even exist in the books when this was made! She was literally made for the movie!
But never shown again in the sequels
@@unforeseeable2.058and her absence isn’t even addressed. All they had to do was say she moved.

GOOD BOYS IS SUCH A GOOD MOVIE one of my fav recent comedies
This was my sister’s favorite movie/book series growing up.
Zoo Wee Mama!!!!!!!
"Why did he try to put his booger on him?"
"He thought it'd be funny?"
He gets me. 😌
Everybody knows boogers look better on other people xD
Im someone who sat on the floor against a wall in middle school during lunch with two friends who voluntarily sat with me.

Rodrick rules is basically empire strikes back Of this trilogy 😅😂
12:14 Some bathroom stalls dont have doors. Its so weird.
Also a callback to why Rodrick said to never use the bathroom.
10:40 "I thought you were home schooled? Uh after highschool" college homeschooling? Maybe I heard it wrong😂😅
I thought the same😅
After hearing her say that at 15:26, I hope she gets to watch Rodrick Rules.
27:42 "Stop making the mistakes I made Greg" really sums up Gregs character
The Next movie. Rodrick Rules is actually a classic so you definitely check it out. It is like the empire strikes back of this movie. The 3rd one is pretty good as well
