Well of course Snicket was not as "present" in the books. It's not like he was going to write "The imaginay screen slowly moved over to reveal Lemony Snicket standing near the Baudelaires."
There's a theory implying that the mysterious taxi driver in the penultimate peril was in fact Lemony Snicket himself. it would be his only real appearance in the books. The serie tends to confirm this theory.
When we grab you by the ankles, Where our mark is to be made, You'll soon be doing noble work, Although you won't be paid. When we drive away in secret, You'll be a volunteer, So don't scream where we take you; *The world is quiet here.* -Lemony Snicket
@@siandiepie9319 also fact your an orphan to they killed your parents that's the reason they didn't brought you back to your own family 😂 (this is weird I usually don't role play)
that twist with the parents got me so hard, i was devastated (i havent read the books but i knew the parents were dead so i thought the show was going to be different) but looking back, that was a clever way to introduce the triplets into the plot of the show :)
I'm very dissapointed with the number of people who hate the show just because they hold onto the movie like a baby to their bottle. Take off your nostalgia glasses people.
ikr? While the plot wasn't THAT bad, I thyink the movie just did better with a few cast choices (personaly, I prefer the movie version of Poe and Josephine, although the series wrote Poe as much funnier) and the soundtrack is obviously incomparable.
I honestly feel like, while it does have pretty good music and some decent pacing, some of the movie's performances felt bland, and it also very much veered away from the novels, in comparison to the Netflix series. Though, unlike the Netflix series, they at least got the right music for the Hurricane scene.
Psylenco I preferred the aesthetic, tone, music, of the movie, better than the series, but the series is overall better than the movie story and character wise. The series also has a nice aesthetic but I still prefer the movie's
Reasons why the film is better than the TV series: The child acting is much better. The special effects are much better. Jim Carrey is better than Neil Patrick Harris. There are far less plot holes in the film than the TV series. The focus is actually on the children rather than V.F.D taking half of the story. The film soundtrack is vastly superior to the short, nonmemorable tunes in the TV series. Also the film doesn't spoil what V.F.D is within the first 5 minutes like the TV series does.
In the books it almost seemed like Lemony Snicket was an actual character documenting and following the children around, but the show gives more context to his character - making it seem like he’s a ghost or something
ourWorld Lucy what about book 12? Lemony did show up at the hotel, already on the run from the law and trying to save the baudelaires. He most likely knew the orphans' history and realized that they were going to be in a lot of trouble very soon.
And he never shown his irl face, from what i remembered in every books his only shown as a shadow. In the end of the books there was him showing his face.
One difference I’m surprised wasn’t on here: The expansion and characterisation of Count Olaf’s theatre troupe. I loved the new personalities of the synchronised powder faced women, the dim witted bald man, and the nihilistic androgynous henchperson. The troupe got more screen time, and complemented eachother well I thought.
I also read that in the book and online said that the "One who looks neither a man or a woman" never spoke the only time when it died in the 8th book with laughing the most oddest laugh as if the children get to hear for the first time IT ever sound.
yea he just looked your typical man dressed in a woman costume. Looked like the Giant Woman from Harry Potter that Hagrid was flirting in the 4th movie of Goblet of FIre
That parents twist is, in my opinion, the greatest plot twist ever. Edit: I've been thinking about it and I definitely exaggerated when I called it the greatest plot twist ever. I was excited that Season 2 was nearly out and I was just praising it non-stop. Great show but there have been much better twists. And yeah it wasn't that unexpected of a twist but still it was smart and I'm sure it was surprising for the non-book readers.
Aaah. I was in high school, and I had to wait a year for each book. It sucked having to wait, but I passed the time by trying to solve the small conundrums presented by The Lemony Snicket Unauthorized Autobiography, discovering every single anagram, etc.
An Undertale Fan I read the first two (or maybe it was just the first one) in, like 5th grade. Then in 7th grade I saw The Hostile Hospital at the library and checked it out. After I read that one, I started reading them in descending order to The Wide Window before jumping into The Carnival one and the last four. Oh, and did I mention I owned books 1-9 but went to the library to check them out anyway...I don't know why.
Definitely implied in the books. They share a room in book 12 and the Beatrice Letters includes the line "until C realizes that S is not worthy of his love"
Wait, I knew everything about Sir and Smogface and Charles with The Beatrice Letters and TPP, but had no idea R. (The Duchess) was lesbian. Where is this implied?
I know, for a while I thought that even Netflix had forgotten about what with that Kimmy Smits show and House Of Cards/Kevin Spacy shit and everyone falling in love STRANGER THINGS and MCU/NETFLIX hero shows getting more attention,right??
As a kid I grew up reading these books and they were one of my favorite book series and still are. I really enjoyed the first season and looking forward to the second season.
Christine Oriol not to the extent of the show though, the movie was a closer portrayal of how Snicket was in the books, a shadow, a cameo never explicitly shown
actualy the books seemed to imply Snicket was narrating all the events as if they happened long ago, since he mentions it as "The Baudelaire case" and often mentions he searched for things that were lost in the books (like Josephine's house or the carnival's trailer), implying his presence is future to the events of the Baudelaires. The series kinda mix it together, with the same narration stating "it happened long ago", but having the actor showing up mid-scenes, although without actualy interacting to anyone.
plus he always calls the story "The Baudelaire case" and he is "investigating it". I also remember once or twice he describes how he couldn't figure out something entirely or how hard was to get evidence of something that happened, strongly implying he followed the baudelaire's trail an unknow amount of time after their events happened.
Ergotth I know this is late but I also believed that Snicker was from the future. Mainly because of the little things he says, like how he said in season 2 that he, himself went to visit Lucky Smells after it had been closed because of the fire that happened during the time the Baudelaires were there. But I got very confused when we saw that Snicker was in a past memory that we saw of the secret organization that had many past characters, like uncle Monty and aunt Josephine ( it was the part when everyone was trying ,discreetly, to get the note that said "Olaf knows" to Snicket ). If you have any thoughts or theories could you share, or if I missed something really important could you explain?
L Moore It was Beatrice, the mother, but she died sometime around The Slippery Slope or The Grim Grotto. Search her on the SnicketWikia, it's a lot more detailed.
L Moore Yeah, there was one hint from The Austere Academy, and then there were 2 letters in Lemony Snicket: The Unauthorized Autobiography that indicated Beatrice survived the Baudelaire fire, but she died in another that occured between TSS or TGG, and page 13 of the Snicket file from The Hostile Hospital was actually referring to her. I sound like such a nerd lol
I am confused In my country it goes Nursery (kindergarten I think) Primary school Secondary school I dunno what’s next probably university And then maybe college but it might be the same thing
I read the books (i actually anticipated in waiting for the last book 'The End' when it came back in 2006!!! & 'The Hostile Hospital' book was kinda hard to find in the public library so i bought it back then too.. now i know why😄) & watched the movie in elementary school & now just done watching the TV series as a working adult now...😄😄for both the movie & TV series, they are just accurate adaptations of the books! If only there were the sequels for the movie one back then👍👍
I loved the books. I like the aesthetic, soundtrack and style of the film better, but the television series is way better story wise, so I guess the TV show is my favourite of the two. But I was kinda disappointed about Sir's face being shown. It would be such a unique visual if he had stayed always behind a puff of smoke
Filmflicker Cinema probably a little to hard with their budget. They already get critiqued on their CGI (I don't mind it) that they didn't want to put it to something that could be spared without TOO much disappointment
Yes you're totally right. However it didn't necessarily have to be CGI, a cigar prop that gives off too much smoke would be cool, then just a bit of CG enhancements to cover up more.
@@FilmflickerCinema I was also thinking that but then I thought maybe they're worried it will affect the actor's health or the actor disagreed to smoke too much just to stay with the 'veiled in smoke' description. Even I will have issues if I have to sniff smoke in each take all the time.
I literally just finished reading the 13th book an hour ago and I can't believe I didn't catch all the hints dropped in season 1 of the show (which I watched right after I read book 4 and before I started book 5). When V.F.D. came up in book 5 I kept trying out phrases to match the acronym - oblivious to the fact that I'd already heard the words V.F.D. stands for in season 1! :O Right after I closed book 13, I went on Google to see how popular the book series really is and if there's companion books (there is!), and if ASOUE is available in my country too because I'd never heard of it prior to the Netflix show (I borrowed the books from my sister who had them shipped from Amazon UK). I found out that the books have been freaking DISCONTINUED in my country! You can only purchase the translated versions used for like a hundred bucks per book! The books have never been a "thing" here, even back when they were being released. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? They seem to have been majorly popular everywhere else in the world, why not in Germany?? ****************** MINOR SPOILER FOR BOOK 12 Charles and Sir are in a romantic relationship in the books, too. Lemony Snicket not only very strongly hints at it, but he actually describes them holding hands and he explicity says that they shared a one-bed hotel room.
Also I just saw how in episode 1 Count Olaf can't find the sugar bowl which is a GIANT easter egg. If they said it in the video, sorry, I'm only half way through it
Crystalbluey Yay, ich hoffe dann, dass die Bücher hier einen späten Erfolg schreiben werden! Die Serie dürfte ja inzwischen einigermaßen bekannt sein, da sie auf Netflix gut beworben wird. :D
Crystalbluey Ich persönlich brauche zum Glück keine Übersetzungen. Aber ich bin trotzdem dafür, dass es sie gibt, damit jene, die kein Englisch können, diese tollen Bücher auch lesen können und dann vielleicht ein deutsches Fandom entsteht. 😍 Ich schließe damit auch die Companion-Bücher ein (die ich noch nicht gelesen habe - ich bin ja erst vor wenigen Tagen mit der Hauptreihe fertig geworden 😁).
PotterheadGeeK7 Wirklich? Ich war als Kind ein riesen Fan der Serie und habe alle 13 Bücher auf deutsch in meinem Regal stehen. Ich glaube nicht, dass wir damals mehr als den durchschnittlichen Buchpreis für die Exemplare bezahlt hatten
Jae Pencil Same. Yes, it's inaccurate to the first 3 books, but I love how it was directed, and it's visually more appropriate. Not to mention the soundtrack is absolutely fantastic, and I loved the cast, especially Jude Law as Snicket. The Netflix series (so far) is just too comedic, and the aesthetics, direction, acting, casting, and music were just bad. Yes, it's very accurate, but that isn't enough for me. :/ But I see why people like the show better. Besides, season 2 looks better.
I know you guys talked about the first 4 books but a honorable mention is in The Carnivorous Carnival, The books, Madame Lulu tells Count Olaf where the Baudelaires are. But in the show, Madame Lulu helps the Baudelaires.
Having read the books at least twenty times since middle school (senior in high school now - still reread them) I was surprised that I wasn't upset with any changes made and really enjoyed them.
I watched the show first, and am currently reading the books (I just started Penultimate Peril and really enjoying them), and so far, I don't mind most of the changes either
I read them ages ago, whilst they were still coming out, and had such an affinity for them. I loved loved loved them. Whilst some of the details are hazy for me, I remember the general plot. I too wasn't mad at the changes, I think because they really had that whimsical theme that's kinda outside time and location. The series really got the feel of it for the most part, it had great stylistic flair
I like how they added more backstory with the guardians, the movie just rushed through them in my opinion, I just rewatched, and I didn't think the first time that the 2 children on the other side of the chair that Klaus and Violet sit in are from the other family that have the same unfortunate event of a fire burning their house down, though It looked like they were still in the house. they have a spy glass too according to the scene AND the new trailer. I wonder what the four of them will get into :)
10.The Miserable Mill's backstory 9. The Spyglass 8. Sir and Charles' partnership 7. The Baudelaires run off 6. Josephine's redemption 5. Jacquelyn 4. Attention to Mr. Poe 3. Lemony Snicket's presence 2. V.F.D. 1. The Baudelaire parents survive (but not really) Honorable mentions: Sunny's wit, Yessica Haircut, The Incredibly Deadly Viper's fate
ellenkingsley It was Beatrice, but she ultimately died around the 10th or 11th book. Search her on the SnicketWikia, there's a really good explanation of it. :)
Something tells me Beatrice Baudelaire(the children's mother) survived the fire escaped went into hiding and she met up with Quigley Quagmire they make it to the slippery slope but Beatrice dies in a fire Quigley joins the scouts to track the Bauedlaires
Olaf Is Looking For The Sugar Bowl For His Morning Coffee And The Woman In Season 2 Is Looking For A Sugar Bowl Lemony Stole In Was In The Hospital Connected I Think (This comment is old and my English is just embarrassing :)
"Is this about the children? I apologize for the noise i told them to cry using their inside voices." XD Comedy Gold And "Me? Im just having my morning coffee, although I can't seem to find the Sugar Bowl" Esmé's pronunciation of sugar bowl is golden with her British accent
I broke down when they revealed the parent twist! I knew that their parents were dead in the book but it brought me so much comfort knowing that these parents were trying so hard to get back to them only to reveal that the Beaudelaires were truly alone. It was so well done despite leaving me quite broken-hearted
I’m so happy the tv series stayed true to the books. Yeah it’s not perfect but they did a great job pleasing fans who read the books and making it easy to get into for non-book readers.
One difference that I'm shocked you didn't mention is how Violet ties her hair differently. Although it may not be stated exactly in the books, on the covers we can see she ties her ribbon on like a headband. In the show adaptation, she ties her hair back into a ponytail. Also in the books, she constantly has her ribbon and never seems to loose or misplace it. In the show, she gets different replacements. This difference is minor yet I still think it's crucial.
PRO TIP: If you want to read the books and watch the series READ ALL THE BOOKS FIRST because the series does SO SO much foreshadowing you will pick up spoilers.
In later books it implied that one of the parents may have survived but its also another red hearing that may pop up in season 2. The spy glass drove me nuts because it only showed up in the slippery slope in one chapter.the baudeliers running away was such a brilliant move when i was reading the books it drove me nuts that me pie sent them too the mill but for season 2 with the cold village poe sending them to the village made no sense but i do think it was them going to the village does work since it was a vfd location. Snicket does give many clues in the books about being love with the beaudilers moms. Also the incredibly deadly Viber will be back in the end.
When it was revealed that the parents weren't the Baudelaires's parents I had to pause to allow myself to sob hysterically for five minutes. I mean amazing plot twist but it broke my heart to realize that no one was coming for them
xD I remember in the wide window part 2 when the set of parents flew over the Baudelaires I kept crying "those are your own children. GO DOWN THERE NOW!!!"
Another one is in the Erastz Elevator, in the show the they make a pretend hot air ballon, but in the book they make a pretend rope to get down and elevator shaft.
@@averymcfadden1490 He is talking about the Madame Lulu BEFORE the one that died, the 1st madame Lulu is Kit Snicket and the one that died is Olivia Caliban
I feel like when Lemony Snicket said “He read the sentence over and over. He read the sentence over and over.” Snicket should have said it once and then Klaus should have said it.
I couldve swore with the 4th book, it was that Sir and Charles adopted the Baudelaires because even Poe was surprised at the end to find out they were made to work in the Mill
Actually, the VFD is everywhere in the books, the same volunteer fire department line is in the books too, in fact, the first fifteen minutes of the show are word for word with the books!
You forgot one HUGE change: the entire plot of The Carnivorous Carnival was altered. In the Netflix series, Olivia Caliban was a caring protagonist and VFD member who was thrown into the lion pit by Count Olaf. In the books, she was a greedy villain and Olaf lackey who fell into the lion pit due to being outsmarted by the Baudelaires. Also, in the books, Olaf found out about the Baudelaires' disguises because Caliban told Olaf, while in the Netflix series, Olaf figured it out on his own.
While the spyglasses didn't have a role in the Series of unfortunate events, they are referenced in the unauthorized autobiography, and in the All the Wrong Questions. I think the creators of the show are using all the books that are a part of the universe, not just the one series.
I read this series in second-third grade, and I never met anyone else who read it. I’m glad that it’s getting recognition, and now I have FINALLY found other’s who also enjoy the series!
I've recently finished all 3 seasons, and I never caught that Lemony literally mentioned the actual name for V.F.D. in the first episode, holy moly, that's cool.
"Im drinking tea although I cant seem to find the sugar bowl." First time watching: Oh i like my tea without sugar Second time watching: *FUUUUUUUUUUU*
I remember I read the whole series in 4th grade. I was really hooked to the books and as soon as I finished one I would check out the next one. I really need to re-read all of them to see everything I missed 7 or 8 years ago 😂 I really love the show! Every intro is really good and catchy. I thought that I wouldn't like it because some people told me that but I was instantly hooked and basically binge watched the first season in one day. I have no regrets :)

Well of course Snicket was not as "present" in the books. It's not like he was going to write "The imaginay screen slowly moved over to reveal Lemony Snicket standing near the Baudelaires."
Midnight Masquerade he was just as present, but there just wasn’t a visual, so many people, including me, just read him as a voice over

I actually have a theory that lemony is a time traveler.
ourWorld Lucy what about book 12? Lemony did show up at the hotel, already on the run from the law and trying to save the baudelaires. He most likely knew the orphans' history and realized that they were going to be in a lot of trouble very soon.

kaitlin Hamilton a few more hourssss
Same but when I was the tenth book Covid hit so I couldn’t go to the Library so I’m reading it again
Mr poe in the show is way too annoying
hes also rlly annoying in the books as well.
Not rlly but y is it annoying?
I meant is he sorry
*Mr Poe, is meant to be annoying, it's about how adults never listen to children.
Oly1y the lemony Snicket in this is way more annoying
Number 8: The romantic relationship between Sir and Charles is also suggested in the books.
SIR seemed more cheap in the books for connecting in book 4 of not paying his workers and in the 12th book he would pay less for a room with 1 bed
The friendship of between Sunny and Fernald!!! Easily the most endearing part of the show!
"While not overt?"
Not overt? Bruh, Sir and Charles's relationship was as subtle as a brick in a tumble dryer.
Sketchy Bughorse and as dark as a crow flying in a pitch black night

It flew over my head as a child, and children were the intended audience in a way. Or at least they were part of it.
Why would young kids read such s dark series?!?!🤨😩😞😔😡
In the Beatrice letters Lemony briefly mentions to her that 'S is bad for C, and he needs to leave as soon as possible.'
Lemony Snicket is.....Kronk?
Smiler Advocate Mika Yes, it's Patrick Warburton, who also voices Joe on "Family Guy". Knew his voice sounded familiar!
And Coach from Kim Possible.
I wish they recasted Jude Law for the part. :/
Clarissa Cota Yes, it would be a nice throwback to the 2004 movie, but I also like Warburton's take on the character.
Caitriona Quigley I personally didn't. Idk, it just wasn't how I pictured Snicket at all. But hey, to each their own. :)
lemony snicket interacts with the environment in the books as well.
Christine Oriol not to the extent of the show though, the movie was a closer portrayal of how Snicket was in the books, a shadow, a cameo never explicitly shown
actualy the books seemed to imply Snicket was narrating all the events as if they happened long ago, since he mentions it as "The Baudelaire case" and often mentions he searched for things that were lost in the books (like Josephine's house or the carnival's trailer), implying his presence is future to the events of the Baudelaires. The series kinda mix it together, with the same narration stating "it happened long ago", but having the actor showing up mid-scenes, although without actualy interacting to anyone.
plus he always calls the story "The Baudelaire case" and he is "investigating it". I also remember once or twice he describes how he couldn't figure out something entirely or how hard was to get evidence of something that happened, strongly implying he followed the baudelaire's trail an unknow amount of time after their events happened.

I know this is late but I also believed that Snicker was from the future. Mainly because of the little things he says, like how he said in season 2 that he, himself went to visit Lucky Smells after it had been closed because of the fire that happened during the time the Baudelaires were there. But I got very confused when we saw that Snicker was in a past memory that we saw of the secret organization that had many past characters, like uncle Monty and aunt Josephine ( it was the part when everyone was trying ,discreetly, to get the note that said "Olaf knows" to Snicket ). If you have any thoughts or theories could you share, or if I missed something really important could you explain?
In the books it is hinted that maybe one of the parents is alive.
L Moore It was Beatrice, the mother, but she died sometime around The Slippery Slope or The Grim Grotto. Search her on the SnicketWikia, it's a lot more detailed.
Clarissa Cota thank you, I did read all the books, but it was a few years ago, so I remember some details, and others I forget.
L Moore Yeah, there was one hint from The Austere Academy, and then there were 2 letters in Lemony Snicket: The Unauthorized Autobiography that indicated Beatrice survived the Baudelaire fire, but she died in another that occured between TSS or TGG, and page 13 of the Snicket file from The Hostile Hospital was actually referring to her.
I sound like such a nerd lol
Clarissa Cota, Everyone has a subject that they are ‘nerdy’ about. Everyone, and I mean everyone is a nerd in SOME way.
L Moore Well, this series is what I'm all about lol
When Josephine screams at the mirror is literally me when I see a mirror
Man I remember reading this series in elementary school. I’m about to graduate high school.
I am confused
In my country it goes
Nursery (kindergarten I think)
Primary school
Secondary school
I dunno what’s next probably university
And then maybe college but it might be the same thing
@@thunderbolt64_ Elementary school in the US is equivalent to Primary school I believe. I think university and college are the same thing.
I read the books (i actually anticipated in waiting for the last book 'The End' when it came back in 2006!!! & 'The Hostile Hospital' book was kinda hard to find in the public library so i bought it back then too.. now i know why😄) & watched the movie in elementary school & now just done watching the TV series as a working adult now...😄😄for both the movie & TV series, they are just accurate adaptations of the books! If only there were the sequels for the movie one back then👍👍
I won't lie, when they pulled that whole surviving parent twist, it was probably one of the biggest "Fuck you's" that has ever been pulled on a show.
Some things translate from the page to the screen and some things don't. But if you keep the the spirit of the books your in good shape.
Cameron Luer What is wrong with you? Why do you feel the need to insult everyone?
@Cameron Luer theor literally right...
SPOILER: I’m kind of upset that Jacquelyn isn’t Kit Snicket (she appears in the last episode of season two)
I loved the books. I like the aesthetic, soundtrack and style of the film better, but the television series is way better story wise, so I guess the TV show is my favourite of the two.
But I was kinda disappointed about Sir's face being shown. It would be such a unique visual if he had stayed always behind a puff of smoke
Filmflicker Cinema probably a little to hard with their budget. They already get critiqued on their CGI (I don't mind it) that they didn't want to put it to something that could be spared without TOO much disappointment
Yes you're totally right. However it didn't necessarily have to be CGI, a cigar prop that gives off too much smoke would be cool, then just a bit of CG enhancements to cover up more.
@@FilmflickerCinema I was also thinking that but then I thought maybe they're worried it will affect the actor's health or the actor disagreed to smoke too much just to stay with the 'veiled in smoke' description. Even I will have issues if I have to sniff smoke in each take all the time.
I literally just finished reading the 13th book an hour ago and I can't believe I didn't catch all the hints dropped in season 1 of the show (which I watched right after I read book 4 and before I started book 5). When V.F.D. came up in book 5 I kept trying out phrases to match the acronym - oblivious to the fact that I'd already heard the words V.F.D. stands for in season 1! :O
Right after I closed book 13, I went on Google to see how popular the book series really is and if there's companion books (there is!), and if ASOUE is available in my country too because I'd never heard of it prior to the Netflix show (I borrowed the books from my sister who had them shipped from Amazon UK). I found out that the books have been freaking DISCONTINUED in my country! You can only purchase the translated versions used for like a hundred bucks per book! The books have never been a "thing" here, even back when they were being released. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? They seem to have been majorly popular everywhere else in the world, why not in Germany??
******************
MINOR SPOILER FOR BOOK 12
Charles and Sir are in a romantic relationship in the books, too. Lemony Snicket not only very strongly hints at it, but he actually describes them holding hands and he explicity says that they shared a one-bed hotel room.
Also I just saw how in episode 1 Count Olaf can't find the sugar bowl which is a GIANT easter egg. If they said it in the video, sorry, I'm only half way through it
I meant book 1
Crystalbluey Yay, ich hoffe dann, dass die Bücher hier einen späten Erfolg schreiben werden! Die Serie dürfte ja inzwischen einigermaßen bekannt sein, da sie auf Netflix gut beworben wird. :D
Crystalbluey Ich persönlich brauche zum Glück keine Übersetzungen. Aber ich bin trotzdem dafür, dass es sie gibt, damit jene, die kein Englisch können, diese tollen Bücher auch lesen können und dann vielleicht ein deutsches Fandom entsteht. 😍 Ich schließe damit auch die Companion-Bücher ein (die ich noch nicht gelesen habe - ich bin ja erst vor wenigen Tagen mit der Hauptreihe fertig geworden 😁).
PotterheadGeeK7 Wirklich? Ich war als Kind ein riesen Fan der Serie und habe alle 13 Bücher auf deutsch in meinem Regal stehen. Ich glaube nicht, dass wir damals mehr als den durchschnittlichen Buchpreis für die Exemplare bezahlt hatten
Still better than the movie lol
Lol
musty I actually prefer the movie over the series
Jae Pencil Same. Yes, it's inaccurate to the first 3 books, but I love how it was directed, and it's visually more appropriate. Not to mention the soundtrack is absolutely fantastic, and I loved the cast, especially Jude Law as Snicket. The Netflix series (so far) is just too comedic, and the aesthetics, direction, acting, casting, and music were just bad. Yes, it's very accurate, but that isn't enough for me. :/ But I see why people like the show better. Besides, season 2 looks better.
Movie > series. Still looking forward to season 2 though.
Clarissa Cota season 2 better be. I honestly wasn’t impressed
I know you guys talked about the first 4 books but a honorable mention is in The Carnivorous Carnival, The books, Madame Lulu tells Count Olaf where the Baudelaires are. But in the show, Madame Lulu helps the Baudelaires.
Addie C, she tried to help the Baudelaires in the book too. But she got eaten buy lions.
This video was made before Season 2 was even released.
Having read the books at least twenty times since middle school (senior in high school now - still reread them) I was surprised that I wasn't upset with any changes made and really enjoyed them.
I watched the show first, and am currently reading the books (I just started Penultimate Peril and really enjoying them), and so far, I don't mind most of the changes either
I read them ages ago, whilst they were still coming out, and had such an affinity for them. I loved loved loved them. Whilst some of the details are hazy for me, I remember the general plot. I too wasn't mad at the changes, I think because they really had that whimsical theme that's kinda outside time and location. The series really got the feel of it for the most part, it had great stylistic flair
I like how they added more backstory with the guardians, the movie just rushed through them in my opinion, I just rewatched, and I didn't think the first time that the 2 children on the other side of the chair that Klaus and Violet sit in are from the other family that have the same unfortunate event of a fire burning their house down, though It looked like they were still in the house. they have a spy glass too according to the scene AND the new trailer. I wonder what the four of them will get into :)
Yeah, just read the books
I adore the books. The world is quiet here.
glen savrtka *quiet :)
I meant quiet, oops! Love this series read each book twice!
You forgot a difference, ones a book series and the other is a TV series. The more you know :).
Despite the differences, Season 1 was excellently done and Season 2 was even better.
10.The Miserable Mill's backstory
9. The Spyglass
8. Sir and Charles' partnership
7. The Baudelaires run off
6. Josephine's redemption
5. Jacquelyn
4. Attention to Mr. Poe
3. Lemony Snicket's presence
2. V.F.D.
1. The Baudelaire parents survive (but not really)
Honorable mentions: Sunny's wit, Yessica Haircut, The Incredibly Deadly Viper's fate
In the books the Baudelaires believe that one of their parents is still alive but come book 12/13 we aren't given that information
ellenkingsley It was Beatrice, but she ultimately died around the 10th or 11th book. Search her on the SnicketWikia, there's a really good explanation of it. :)
I thought I knew everything there was to know about these books. Somehow I never saw that part. It makes a lot of sense,
But then again it’s a show and that’s probably not going to be the same or that accurate. And honestly in the show I hope Beatrice doesn’t die.
Beatrice did survive but in the snicket file they were talking about quigly quagmire
Something tells me Beatrice Baudelaire(the children's mother) survived the fire escaped went into hiding and she met up with Quigley Quagmire they make it to the slippery slope but Beatrice dies in a fire Quigley joins the scouts to track the Bauedlaires
Yay, so excited for the second season!
Caitriona Quigley sameeeee
Caitriona Quigley yas!!!!!
Season two is coming March 30th!!
Lunastarplayz Ha ha, I used to get that all the time as a kid when we read the books in school!😂Helps that I also have two brothers! 😊
Lunastarplayz I was actually nicknamed "Isadora",for a while, and my brothers "Quigley" and "Duncan", all the more reason to love the books! 😀

Thank you. From me and all other Snicket super fans.
Thank you for making our day.
In the first line
*THATS NOT HOW THE STORY GOES*
I love that song
Olaf Is Looking For The Sugar Bowl For His Morning Coffee And The Woman In Season 2 Is Looking For A Sugar Bowl Lemony Stole In Was In The Hospital Connected I Think
(This comment is old and my English is just embarrassing :)
yes it was but it was lost in the ocean then found and then in the hotels secret basement and the ladys name was esme
“I told them to cry with their inside voices” there for the best line of the show
"Is this about the children? I apologize for the noise i told them to cry using their inside voices." XD Comedy Gold
And "Me? Im just having my morning coffee, although I can't seem to find the Sugar Bowl" Esmé's pronunciation of sugar bowl is golden with her British accent
I broke down when they revealed the parent twist! I knew that their parents were dead in the book but it brought me so much comfort knowing that these parents were trying so hard to get back to them only to reveal that the Beaudelaires were truly alone. It was so well done despite leaving me quite broken-hearted
So excited that i could cry, the wait was very unfortunate
I’m so happy the tv series stayed true to the books. Yeah it’s not perfect but they did a great job pleasing fans who read the books and making it easy to get into for non-book readers.
One difference that I'm shocked you didn't mention is how Violet ties her hair differently. Although it may not be stated exactly in the books, on the covers we can see she ties her ribbon on like a headband. In the show adaptation, she ties her hair back into a ponytail. Also in the books, she constantly has her ribbon and never seems to loose or misplace it. In the show, she gets different replacements. This difference is minor yet I still think it's crucial.
Thanks so much for making this video! The books are incredible and the show is really great so far too. I can't wait for season 2 on Friday!
Thanks Walt! :)
Tomorrow
I know season two came out way after this video, but Olivia is way different and way better in the Netflix series
I didn’t realize this was a sad occasion.
PRO TIP: If you want to read the books and watch the series READ ALL THE BOOKS FIRST because the series does SO SO much foreshadowing you will pick up spoilers.
Yes, Lemony actually having a part in the show is very beneficial to people liking it.
In later books it implied that one of the parents may have survived but its also another red hearing that may pop up in season 2. The spy glass drove me nuts because it only showed up in the slippery slope in one chapter.the baudeliers running away was such a brilliant move when i was reading the books it drove me nuts that me pie sent them too the mill but for season 2 with the cold village poe sending them to the village made no sense but i do think it was them going to the village does work since it was a vfd location. Snicket does give many clues in the books about being love with the beaudilers moms. Also the incredibly deadly Viber will be back in the end.
THANK YOU THANK YOU AND THANK YOU!
Grayce Pittman hi
Honestly I don't care how much they changed, that show will always be a favorite for me.
Show: Dr Orwell falls on fire.
Book: *Dr Orwell crosses the way of the saw*
When it was revealed that the parents weren't the Baudelaires's parents I had to pause to allow myself to sob hysterically for five minutes. I mean amazing plot twist but it broke my heart to realize that no one was coming for them
I remember reading this in third grade since then I've been in love with this series. It helped me reach my goal in AR reading thing.
Thank you for these very fascinating documents and facts.
9:30 “only Very Firmly Dedicated” we’ll put
xD I remember in the wide window part 2 when the set of parents flew over the Baudelaires I kept crying "those are your own children. GO DOWN THERE NOW!!!"
Season 2 left on such a cliff hanger cant wait for season 3
mora was her same!
JANUARY 1!!!!!!!
Ikr... I already read the books that season 3 is based off of but I wanna see what they make it look like!!
Hey guys here I am after season 3 😢😢😢
@@brennaoconnor1615 SAME
These books literally taught me how to cook pasta, and quickly became addicted to puttanesca sauce
I read all the books in one semester of school in 4th grade, I was so addicted that when it ended, I began crying. It was such a great series.
I thought Sir and Charles might be together in the books too.
OMG am I the only one who didn't realize this part of the TV series until I rewatched it?
0:48
HE MENTIONED THE FLIPPIN' SUGAR BOWL!
“2 pieces of bread stuffed between a sandwich” Omg😂
I read these books as a child and loved them. After I saw the show’s trailer I was so hyped and I looooove it!
In both the movie and Netflix series,when The Incredibly Deadly Viper strikes...it always gives me a good startling jump in my heart,haha!!
Another one is in the Erastz Elevator, in the show the they make a pretend hot air ballon, but in the book they make a pretend rope to get down and elevator shaft.
AHHHHHHH I’m so excited for season 2!
I’m 90% sure that the previous Madame Lulu is Kit Snicket.
Nope
I agree, because at the time i am writing this the show is finished and i saw proof
@@averymcfadden1490 why not?
lil ems if u finished u will know madame lulu died? Right? I’m just saying finished too
@@averymcfadden1490 He is talking about the Madame Lulu BEFORE the one that died, the 1st madame Lulu is Kit Snicket and the one that died is Olivia Caliban
I feel like when Lemony Snicket said “He read the sentence over and over. He read the sentence over and over.”
Snicket should have said it once and then Klaus should have said it.
I couldve swore with the 4th book, it was that Sir and Charles adopted the Baudelaires because even Poe was surprised at the end to find out they were made to work in the Mill
"Know that there will be spoilers. A word which here means-" **expains spoilers**
Me: **tries to do a Klaus impression** We know what spoilers mean.
I hate when they do that in the show so much.
If anyone has ever watched The Simpsons, I think the Sir-Charles relationship is a lot like Smithers-Burns
I really love when ferald (HOOKY) is being freindly to Sunny Baudelaire
Actually, the VFD is everywhere in the books, the same volunteer fire department line is in the books too, in fact, the first fifteen minutes of the show are word for word with the books!
Who knew snicket could sing😭✋💀 -by random girl from yt channel ms mojo
I like that Ms. Mojo adopted Lemony’s way of speaking for this video.
0:39--0:46 Klaus: we know what spoiler means🤣🤣🤣
You forgot one HUGE change: the entire plot of The Carnivorous Carnival was altered. In the Netflix series, Olivia Caliban was a caring protagonist and VFD member who was thrown into the lion pit by Count Olaf. In the books, she was a greedy villain and Olaf lackey who fell into the lion pit due to being outsmarted by the Baudelaires. Also, in the books, Olaf found out about the Baudelaires' disguises because Caliban told Olaf, while in the Netflix series, Olaf figured it out on his own.
While the spyglasses didn't have a role in the Series of unfortunate events, they are referenced in the unauthorized autobiography, and in the All the Wrong Questions. I think the creators of the show are using all the books that are a part of the universe, not just the one series.

I read this series in second-third grade, and I never met anyone else who read it. I’m glad that it’s getting recognition, and now I have FINALLY found other’s who also enjoy the series!
Can't wait for season 2 of A series of unfortunate events to be on Netflix.
Abram Sullivan it's already out for me
I watched it all in a day today.
Abram Sullivan i watched the full season yesterday. It’s so good! But I’m sad that season 3 is the last season because it’s such a good show😭
Abram Sullivan it has thr biggest cliffhanger ever lol
Evie Loreen wait but shouldn’t season 3 finish the series completely or no? Like do they skip the last book or something
I've recently finished all 3 seasons, and I never caught that Lemony literally mentioned the actual name for V.F.D. in the first episode, holy moly, that's cool.
“Is it the children I apologize I told them to cry using there inside voices” (;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)
"Im drinking tea although I cant seem to find the sugar bowl."
First time watching: Oh i like my tea without sugar
Second time watching: *FUUUUUUUUUUU*
I need to finish season 1 I’m very close I love this video
Mackenzie Esslin season 2 is great
Mackenzie Esslin if you are on s1 you shouldn't be here 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
ARMGarianna grey I actually finished season one the other day it was really good actually 😍💜
I remember I read the whole series in 4th grade. I was really hooked to the books and as soon as I finished one I would check out the next one. I really need to re-read all of them to see everything I missed 7 or 8 years ago 😂 I really love the show! Every intro is really good and catchy. I thought that I wouldn't like it because some people told me that but I was instantly hooked and basically binge watched the first season in one day. I have no regrets :)
