Is this really supposed to be Ellie?? This chick is over-confident, like she's the most popular girl at school or something. The point about Ellie is that she's an average insecure but likeable teenage girl with normal hangups, not some stroppy queen bee.
Exactly. I mean, I know sometimes its okay for the TV character to be a bit different from the book, but this Ellie is way too different. She doesn't show Ellie from the books personality at all!
Cute Drawings Russel is basically the same in the book too. If I remember rightly at one point he tries taking her clothes off and when she says no he gets stroppy about it.
He was controlling in the book as well. He constantly wanted to go further with her and when she would say no he would get annoyed. He even copied her Ellie The Elephant design and literally tried to gas light her. At the party he and Ellie went to, he got upset that she was wearing jeans and a sweater and wanted her to wear something more "sparkly." He is just a manipulating weirdo.
This is dumb. It's all wrong. Ellie is fat with curly hair and glasses, she's also short, not tall. Nadine is pale, and Magda is blonde (or red by this point) and the baby brother is not a baby, he's a little kid, and his NAME IS EGGS! Know your story before you make a movie!
Totally agree, but I guess they couldn't find the actress who looks exactly the part though! I still enjoy it as it is though! And for Benedict, I was disappointed by that! But in the end, it says it was based on it, not completely copied!
Probably a little bit! I mean like, they go to school, they have jobs, they are born and created the way we are, they die, they need food! So a little bit!
I had no idea they made this into a movie. I loved the books so much when I was younger I'm kinda glad I never saw this or it might've ruined them for me lol
I feel really sorry for Ellie when Dad and Anna ignore her at the start...but at the same time, she IS being incredibly self-centred and spoilt! A quiet meal in for a birthday would've suited me down to the ground when I was a teen! :D
Ellie is like Tracy Beaker not like her self and Anna is not at all like she is in the book Anna is young and cares about Ellie so she wouldn't just agnore her like if you agree
They got the casting so wrong for this, maybe apart from Nadine. There should be a cinema version for all four book versions. Ellie is curvy with curly hair, Magda is blonde, apart from in Girls Out Late when she dyes it red.
The best thing about Ellie as a character was that she was not prize pig. Short, chubby, bespectacled with frizzy hair, she was relatable. Now she just looks whiny.
Eggs is meant to be a five year old; Ellie is plump,short and has glasses. Nadine is accurate enough but Magda is meant to be a Red head WHITE GIRL boy addict
The two characters they've actually got right is Anna and Nadine- even though I thought Nadine would be a bit more Goth-like. Ellie is the tallest out of all of her friends- when in the book she complained about her height and said she was around 5 foot 2.
I actually agree with Ellie at 7:00 i hate it when people assume they know what you're going to say then yell at you. parents do it the most and it really pisses me off.
Racist because she asked why Magda is black? It's a valid question; because she shouldn't be black, it's not racist. I swear people throw the word racist around at everything these days.
Ellie was meant to be a character girls could relate to. This pissed me off 😂
Russell is so controlling!!! And why is he not hot (I fell in love with his character in the book!)
Huuh Gayyyyyyy
I know right
same
I hated his character in the book i thought he was a bit of a twit but it's ur opinion
Haha
going to school without uniform? Calling pocket money allowance? Come on we don't live in the states this is a British show!
I was thinking this I moved to America recently from the uk and I just realised this is more mark an than british
I do not think that she is actually fat in the books it is just how she sees herself and she just sees Magda and Nadine pretty because boys like them
I wish Russell could see that Nadine and Magda are Ellie's bestest ever friends. Plus he looks about thirty
Irl he's actually 1 year older than her. XD
Yeah Russel is CRADEL SNATCHING
Soooooooooo fake. Ellies meant to be the shortest and have fizzy hair, Magdas meant to have red hair. And Russell is so wierd!!!
It's a film so their bound to get something wrong . Most get the character descriptions wrong
Ive seen people comment this like 16 times now :D
Grace Spencer its called a film u r talking about the book
I always imagined Magda as black with short dyed hair
Why am I here in 2021 😭 this is such a throwback omg
2023 😭
2024🤣🙈
So today I've watched all of the series's of "Girls in ..."

+RiviRose
init she is so so diffrent
from the book she looks like she is 25
+Retaj Sawas and in this she is self Bsorbed and rude
+Khiara Clarke-Duncan
yh and it makes the film crap
She very optioned and more her own person but I do t feel she popular or anything
The kissing on the neck went on for AGES
I hate Russell in this version. He's EATING Ellie. He's just controlling. Not the Russell in the book. Just manipulating.
Cute Drawings Russel is basically the same in the book too. If I remember rightly at one point he tries taking her clothes off and when she says no he gets stroppy about it.

Errrr....... Russell looked like he was EATING Ellie! Ewwww! 💏 he was snogging the hell outta her!
He was supposed to do a Bit more than kissing her. Just saying.
19 years old and still reading\watching these things...😂
Please tell me you still do!! I'm 25 still rewatching these and rereading the books 😅😂
I think Nadine is the most mature one. She listens to other people and tries to be neutral.
is nobody going to mention that russel is pure eating her neck off in a pre teens tv show jesusu
"anyone would think your parents dont feed you"
"they dont" *raaawr*
What the F is Russell kissing Ellie's neck LOL . He looks like he wants to get to level 3 😒
This is nothing like the book but I don't care I still love it!
Magda: "What's emu time?" LOL
This is dumb. It's all wrong. Ellie is fat with curly hair and glasses, she's also short, not tall. Nadine is pale, and Magda is blonde (or red by this point) and the baby brother is not a baby, he's a little kid, and his NAME IS EGGS! Know your story before you make a movie!

this is based on the actual book, as much as Sims are based on real life people
Sims are just about based on real people...
Seriously? How realistic is SIMS compared to real life?
Probably a little bit! I mean like, they go to school, they have jobs, they are born and created the way we are, they die, they need food! So a little bit!
"people will think your parents did'nt feed you properly!" "GAHHMMM" *she walke away* "no, come back! I'm still hungry!"
We are aware of what happens.
+Crazy Girl Gaming Yeah, I'm just putting it out there because its funny.
The Cupkake Queen whatevs
The Cupkake Queen Ikr :') what a sick freak
In the book his name is eggs
Eggs benedict that's why they call him eggs
Oh right lol
(This is my 2nd acount)
I had no idea they made this into a movie. I loved the books so much when I was younger I'm kinda glad I never saw this or it might've ruined them for me lol
Eh, at least in the tv version Ellie doesn't go right back to Russel after he's been a dick and cheated on her with Magda.
It was a show
Thats girls in love not girrls in tears!
There are different series
I feel really sorry for Ellie when Dad and Anna ignore her at the start...but at the same time, she IS being incredibly self-centred and spoilt!
A quiet meal in for a birthday would've suited me down to the ground when I was a teen! :D
i used to love these books when i was 13 and 14!
loved it when russell said: no, come back. i'm still hungry. :)
just his voice, that's all. :)
What happeded to dan lol
i wish they'd make all the best selling jw books into films
2:06 i phought this was for kids
ive just finished the book
i cnt believe Russell and Magda done thr to Ellie but im so happy for everyone
"My coochey coochey poochy man"
I love how in the first movie shes raging on about how she cant get a boyfriend and now shes literally being eaten by one...
Lol they all look so weird when u see them planning the party in Ellie's imagination
rofl magda 'whats emu time' HAHAHA
this is girls in LOVE
Yeah
I know
No it isn't...
She looks like a popular kid
Shes such a spoilt brat in this. She's pretty friendly in the books.
Ellie is like Tracy Beaker not like her self and Anna is not at all like she is in the book Anna is young and cares about Ellie so she wouldn't just agnore her like if you agree
God this reeks of early 2000s
They got the casting so wrong for this, maybe apart from Nadine. There should be a cinema version for all four book versions. Ellie is curvy with curly hair, Magda is blonde, apart from in Girls Out Late when she dyes it red.
i havent read the books but i love the series
she looks really pretty in this x
Ellie
Not all her favourite people I thought her mum was a favourite person
SHE IS OBSESSED WITH THAT FRIKIN' RING
'oh no come back im still hungry' hahahaahahahaha
Russell looks different than in girls in love 2
Hi. The girl in 9:09 in red curly hair is look exactly like Ellie from the book...
Ellie has glasses and frizzy hair in the book!
+Sian Thomas she looks and acts completely different though, and doesn't even look the age she is supposed to be
Love this film! Xxx
in case russell hasnt noticed, nadine and magda are her best friends!
omg omg omg!!! i just realised that girl is the woman in that kids show i can cook!!!!
Russel is COMPLETELY different in the book and Ellie's supposed to have wild curly hair and be slightly fat. and Eggs is about 7 in the book.
"What's emu time?" lol
i love that "ay" in 3:04
that is sooo weird thats exactly how i imagined russels bedroom the art set and everything!!!
"I don't cee" = I love british accent
"she says does my hand look to fat with a ring on it?"
SHE'S WEARING A RING ON THE OTHER HAND!
Anna's a bit of a cowbag in this too :')
lol rusells like oo llove ya babes next thing dont get anything at all lol
"What's emu time?"
-Omg Pahahahaha!
tbh Ellie is quite rude in this tv series, not like her original character at all, which is meant to be shy and awkward.
The best thing about Ellie as a character was that she was not prize pig. Short, chubby, bespectacled with frizzy hair, she was relatable. Now she just looks whiny.
girls out late on here is called girls in love 2 dont think under pressure is up tho
I love this
in the book the baby isnt a baby and he is called eggs and the dad has a beard in the book
Ellie gets stressed put so easily -.-
Eggs is meant to be a five year old; Ellie is plump,short and has glasses. Nadine is accurate enough but Magda is meant to be a Red head WHITE GIRL boy addict
All these comments saying Ellie is supposed to be fat and ugly... no she's not! That's what she thought of herself!
she doesn't meet Russel until Girls out late
Now I see how Nad is pretty :)
I love this but its so different to the book girls in tears
'What do you think'
I think russel is more interested in her neck
haha my birthday soon! love this series! xD
If someone talked to me like Anna talks to Ellie during dinner, I would tell them to get out of my house! :p
i agree i havent read the books for a few years but the characters do not fit the description in the book!!!
Nadine and Magda are supposed to be taller than Ellie, Nadine is supposed to be the tallest! Not the smallest.
russel always wants ellie to himself!! >:|
If you've read the book, Russell actually back-stabs Ellie with Magda in Big Mac's party, he's also stole Ellie Elephant by Ellie.
love the music at the start :P
Posh Russell @ 7:48 made me lol :D
Since when did Ellie's voice get loud? :o
Love thissssss
So many haters
If you don't like it why watch it stupid
It's a great film
I LOVE it.
The two characters they've actually got right is Anna and Nadine- even though I thought Nadine would be a bit more Goth-like.
Ellie is the tallest out of all of her friends- when in the book she complained about her height and said she was around 5 foot 2.
The baby looks like his charming sister more like
Benedict is a kind of egg... like a way of eating it!
I LUV WATCHING THESE THERE ACE
I actually agree with Ellie at 7:00 i hate it when people assume they know what you're going to say then yell at you. parents do it the most and it really pisses me off.
i wasnt even aware they had made a girls in tears movie :D
Ellie looks exactly like Bonnie Wright.
That girl at 09:09 behind Ellie(Olivia) would be a perfect Ellie!
Racist because she asked why Magda is black?
It's a valid question; because she shouldn't be black, it's not racist.
I swear people throw the word racist around at everything these days.
in the book ellie hates the way she looks but in the series she's pretty
This show was the effing shit back in the day!
is it just me, or did russell get wayyy hotter from the last movie
omg, on animal crossing theres a gay head, and hes called BENIDICT.
I'm still here, yeah...where have my last 22 hours gone?
Ellie is not like what she is in the book
