Twelve-year-old Ted (Zac Efron) lives in a place virtually devoid of nature; no flowers or trees grow in the town of Thneedville. Ted would very much like to win the heart of Audrey (Taylor Swift), the girl of his dreams, but to do this, he must find that which she most desires: a Truffula tree. To get it, Ted delves into the story of the Lorax (Danny DeVito), once the gruff guardian of the forest, and the Once-ler (Ed Helms), who let greed overtake his respect for nature.

The bear 🧸 🐻 is so cute 🥰
The song how bad could I be was a replacement song to the original song Biggering, which I highly recommend looking at
I would recommend it’s totally Cody to watch this movie 🎥 🍿
Danny DeVito was the perfect choice to plau The Lorax, and "How bad can I be?" Is a great song. Though I wish they had kept in "Biggering" instead.
*play
Yes.
Yes, Biggering was. . . insane. Literally gave me chills.
Definitely a great song, but I believe they made the right choice with how bad can I be, since it's a more villainous portrayal of greed and has a more "movie style" sound. I could definitely picture some kind of musical play based around the story of the lorax where they used biggering instead, since it has more of a theatrical sound and seems like something you'd hear in a play... someone get on that 👀
same
Fun fact: Danny Devito voiced the Lorax in multiple languages including Spanish.
Sadly not the one from Latino America
@@bunguz7991 Deberás , quien fue el actor de doblaje para Latinoamérica. Estaba seguro de que fue Danny DeVito.
@@bunguz7991 investigue y si fue Danny DeVito.
Oh I didn't know it! great!
German as well! I just found out about this
When the Once-ler said that when a guy does something stupid twice, he says it’s to impress a girl, the second time he allowed trees to be chopped was to impress his mom.
BRO I HADN'T THOUGHT ABOUT THAT
11:37, in the book The Onceler regrets the environmental destruction he wreaked after the fact and tells his own story partly as a cautionary tale but doesn’t actually attempt to downplay his greed and avarice in it. The movie introduced the bit about The Onceler trying to prove himself to his family to make him more sympathetic
Ever since I watched this as a child, I did have more respect for trees because of the oxygen and not paying for it is important. Always good messages with Dr Seuss
Trees are only responsible for about 20% of atmospheric oxygen. The vast majority comes from algae, bacteria and plankton in the ocean who account for the remaining 80%. Trees are still essential for land animals however and without them, there would be a HUGE extinction event for land animals, the likes of which we would have never seen.
@@maozedong8370 Tree are not the most important yet still a good chunk of oxygen-makers, but they provide much needed cooling effect on lands.
They turn light into oxygen rather than heat and provide much needed shade. Plus, the plants release water into the air that effect climate by causing more rain.
The message should've been handled much better imo. There were some issues the original story touched on that this movie version failed to do the same for.
fun fact= Ted and Audrey are named after Ted and Audrey Geisel (the dr seuss family) and theoretically the age number both characters have are 12-14, so for this type pair it kind of works for a non disney romance or something in a funny/likable way, even though it is safe to say that Audrey if she was the one who visited the story could worked much better, no?
I kind of liked this because it's rare especially in kids movies where we see a pairing between a guy and an older girl. Usually the guy is the older one.
I really love this movie! The Lorax is my favorite Dr. Seuss book from my childhood, and the “Unless someone like you” quote is my absolute FAVORITE quote .
The main issue I have with the movie is that the Once-Ler is given a face. Throughout the original story(or the animated movie)the Once-Ler is constantly hidden, behind a chair or his wagon or the boards over his window. This is because he could be anyone, even a member of the audience.
Second issue, as I'm remembering....the family. It's the FAMILY of the Once-Ler that makes him begin harvesting the trees, not himself. I understand they wanted to make him more sympathetic, but the animated movie from years before already did that by making him have reasons he could not just stop production of Thneeds(putting his workers out of jobs and make his construction of his factories pointless).
…
thats actually a really good point, i forgot his face was never shown in the book
@@DarkDragon_Midnight nor in the 2d animated either, I love to have a story that shows, not an adult that has a sad background, but someone, even within the audience or a child, could be this character that did this for no reason, or cared about the afterwards.
I personally don't mind that they gave him a face because his character at the start was like your average guy with big dreams, which is something that people can still relate to or see themselves in (kind of like Peter Parker). So it would've still made his fall from grace hit hard for the audience. I do however, agree that making his family influence him into becoming greedy was a bad decision since it takes away the point of the Once-ler's character, that literally anyone can become him no matter how well-meaning they are or lacking some tragic backstory.
The Lorax is such a great movie with amazing songs and a strong message about respecting nature or we could potentially live in a world without beauty and just be plain grey!
Loved the reaction from you both Timothee
Broadway should adapt this book one day
I've literally been crushing on the onceler FOR 10 YEARS!!
Betty White was awesome as the grandma. She's my favorite character in the whole movie. Thanks again for the incredible compilation, Timothee. Please keep them coming.
Fun factttt: Audrey is voiced by Taylor Swift!!
No wonder she was so interested in trees. She just couldn't shake it off.
@@primepm8861 bad joke alert!
I remember I saw this at a special event at Universal Studios Hollywood. They all the actors there at the event and there were a LOT, of people there
Edit: just a small tip, I believe the event was the premiere of The Lorax at Universal
Let's not forget Ed Helms learning about the fandom 😬
Onecest🫣🧑🦯
Awww I remember watching this in theatre’s when I was a child 🙏😇!!!
This was literally one of my fav childhoods
I love Dr Seuss animated movies
I love how this movie is sending a message to try and protect our planet Earth because right now, it is devastating. 40% of ice in the arctic has metled from 1980, walruses killing themselves because they scaled 80 feet mountains just to be away from the crowd when the sea ice is not provided, when ice melts, the bare oceans absorbs 90% of the sun’s energy warming the earth when ice pushes back the energy into space, forests being lost making life for animals who need the forests more harder especially in the Philippines and corals dying making seas more acidic and marine life dying
Thank you so much for reacting to the Lorax. One of the best movies of all time.
26:36, the question remains why The Onceler doesn’t plant a new tree for every one he cuts down (like people in the logging business do in the real world) to avoid exhausting his supply of raw materials. (It’s another critique which was also given towards the book.)
Funeral for a Tree is such a beautiful piece of music. Just gets me in the feelings
The first line of its melody is exactly the same as in “New World’s Symphony”, by…Strauss? (I think that was his surname): Mi Sol Sol, Mi Re Do…
17:03 - “You listen to me, boy. Don’t go poking around things you don’t understand or I’ll be your worst nightmare. I’m Frankenstein’s head ON A SPIDER’S BODY!!!” - Aloysius O'Hare
I’m sorry… I just couldn’t keep myself from busting my gut at that so-called threat of his!! Great that you didn’t cut out the best part of the film!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
9:24, O’Hare was actually created for the movie. In the book, The Onceler is the repentant villain
Who else survived tumblr's obsession with Onceler back in like 2014(?) Wild times were had.
But genuinely this movie and it's statement on pollution, deforestation, and overproduction is amazing!! I love it (plus 'How bad Can I Be is an actual banger)!
How can I be is a banger? Bro wtf no offense but wtf. Biggering is way better in my opinion and I do respect yours but you should listen to the demo track of the Lorax Called biggering it’s a true banger.
Grandma is voiced by Betty White and you were surprised she was a badass. Might I recommend watching the Golden Girl episode when Rose/Betty’s teddy bear gets stolen. No! The episode where Rose kills a person who wants to destroy a tree just by yelling at the person.
I have to admit when I heard Taylor Swift and Zac Efron where in this I was expecting them to have a song even at the end but nope they didn’t sing at all. It’s kind of okay because we got Ester Dean’s ending song and it’s soo good but I wanna know what a duet between Zac and Taylor would sound like.
THANK U SO SO MUCH for having me on the channel Tim!!😄😄😄🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🎉🎉🎉 had a great time filming this and you’re awesome!!😄😄😄😄
This movie is one of my favorites. Great message and a lot of fun. In fact it inspired me to write 5 fanfics about the onceler and his life
My lil 11 year old cousin is *OBSESSED* with this film and puts it on repeat
I think I know why 😏 Though, to be fair, the songs and the visuals are great, and the final message is very beautiful
The Lorax is my guilty pleasure movie! The Onceler fandom back in 2012 was a crazy time 😂 I also recommend watching “Horton Hears a Who” made by Blue Sky Studios. It’s another amazing Dr Seuss film adaptation that’s really fun to watch
Were u in the onceler fandom? Cause I wasn't but I heard the stuff that goes on there and ..phew, ppl are 😰
not to mention the crazy worlds end prediction
Wtf I just heard about this now
@@Iwillwinthis11 It was on Tumblr.
Although the movie is always been not that well received people seem to really like this song how bad can I be, but personally I believe that probably the best Dr. Seuss quote come from the story. “ Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it’s not.“ I love the quote because I find it even beyond its intended purpose of reminding people about looking after the environment, I feel like that quote can be used in so many other ways as well.
I'm not saying this movie is better than people think by any means, but can we all just agree on something:
The scene where the last tree fell was the best scene in the movie. It has all the same impact that the original animated short did and then some.
4:52, fun fact, even though the book doesn’t give him a name, the movie calls him Ted because Dr. Seuss’s real name was Theodore Seuss Geisel and Geisel answered to the nickname Ted
And also Audrey was named after Theodore’s widow Audrey.
@@Otisboy121 True
It’s been so long that I forgot how much I loved this movie glad u watched and liked it
3:14, in the book, it doesn’t have the whole synthetic everything going on but it does have the kid’s town be a desolate hellhole because of the destruction of the environment hence the boy going to the Onceler and asking what happened
I hope Tim watches *Horton Hears a Who* next. It was made by Blue Sky Studios, & I'd love to see Tim react to some of their other films as well someday, i.e. Rio, Epic, Ferdinand, Spies in Disguise.
28:26, one thing people criticize about the book is that it never occurs to The Onceler to replant the trees he cuts to maintain the supply of raw materials (which is a legitimate criticism.) It seems to me that in this movie the answer is that The Onceler isn’t as business savvy as he thinks he is
Like I said previously I highly recommend watching the animated special versions of Lorax, Horton and the other Seuss tv specials from the 1960's and 70's as they are far superior this the film versions and I also recommend watching Doug Walker's Nostalgia Critic review of this film as he perfectly nails the problems with it especially the ending.
19:52 Those 3 fish remind me of the slugs from Flushed Away! 🤣👍
Let it grow was my fav song in the movie
R.I.P Betty White 😔😢💔
18:55, in the book, Dr. Seuss calls the fish Hummingfish so it was building on that joke
18:50 19:53 The singing fish remind me of the slugs from Flushed Away lol
28:11 You know that’s right!
And singing it too.
I love the Lorax. It was based on the real story and the first movie. Let it grow is my favorite song. Can you do Captain Underpants the first epic movie?
🎵🎵🎵💗💗💗
This movie takes me back to elementary school I'm in high school now
4:55, Dr. Seuss’s wife Audrey Geisel was her namesake
the antagonist, in the words of others, looks like a combination of edna mode and faarquad, makes sense?
Great reaction guys!! Honestly, the Lorax (2012) is a guilty pleasure movie for me even after learning about how much they watered down the original story (like the Once-ler actually being aware of the destruction he's causing but not stopping until the last tree fell). "How Bad Can I Be?" is my favorite song from this film but the cut song "Biggering" is definitely the superior villain song for the Once-ler and it honestly saddens me that it wasn't used in the final movie. Probably because the song makes the Once-ler "too evil" when they want him to be a sympathetic character (not a good excuse if you ask me). I also HIGHLY recommend watching the 1972 Lorax TV short. It's just around 25 minutes long but I personally think it's better than this 2012 film, especially since Dr. Seuss himself was the writer for it.
When I was a kid, I love this movie so much!
Thanks, Timothée! Thanks, Becky! 🌴 I love this one. #TimotheeReacts #ChrisRenaud #TheLorax
I enjoyed the movie as a kid, but looking back, I can see that it had some major flaws (mainly the Once-ler showing his face - thus losing his 'anyone could be him' draw - and his family being the ones to push him instead of himself, but also the loss of the original's powerfully ambiguous ending in favor of this movie's generic 'big bad corporation trying to silence the little guy' climax). And after learning of the cut song "Biggering", I'm upset we didn't get that darker version of the movie - it seemed like they had a better story in mind, but corporate meddling brought it down. It's not awful by any means, but it's pretty generic now.
So TL;DR, if you think this is good, then you should ABSOLUTELY check out the original movie!
Or the book.
@@worthybutter2004 Yes, I have no idea why I didn't mention the book, but check that out, too.
@@MattTOB618 yes
Funny that the reason why they made him handsome, cute and with family issues was to make him likable, so it would feel relatable, but they didn’t get to the final point when they cut off the famous song
I remember having this movie on DVD too. Even though this is clearly a bad movie, it’s a bad movie that teaches you a lesson about trees.
Indeed.
In one of the scenes the older Onceler mentions Donkey Kong knowing that Illumination is making the Mario movie I think they predicted the future
I'd recommend watching the cut song with storyboards ,biggering, it was supposed to be in place of "how bad can I be ?" But the studio thought it was too dark and anti corporate cause it really didn't hold back any punches, so they cut it, it's annoying that they made one of the best villan songs ever and then proceeded to not use it 😂🤦♂️
R. I.P. Betty White
33:03 Looked it up, he's 12, she's 14. It's like Aang and Katara
Tim: he cant do it
Ted: ah, bet on it
(sorry, high school musical joke)
24:23, actually yes. One of the things the book is criticized for is that The Onceler never tries to do that
not me sobbing there at the end lmao
Yeah. I love that movie
I don't understand thought town without nature? Like they need nature to breath air or something?
Well this is great the trees are coming back and the Lorax comes back as well in the end.
And the musical is amazing
Danny DeVito is the Lorax himself. And by that, I mean he voices the Lorax. You get it, right?
First time I saw it fully the “How bad can I be” song stuck through my head
I love this movie.
Check the soundtrack' demo songs.
My favorite Animated movie from illumination
When I watch The Lorax, why the Once Ler didn't climbing up the tree to take up the fluffy once instead to cut off the tree.
Danny Devito plays the Lorax in this movie. This movie teaches you how to respect nature and the environment itself.
Audrey is 14 while Ted is 12
Same with Star wars
8:41 That’s the guy from Screen Junkies’s Honest Trailers 😂
RIP Betty White
Recommend for the finest environmental animation feature that inspires The Lorax movie: FernGully: The Last Rainforest 🌳🌹🌺🌷🧚♀️
Let it Grow is the best song in this movie!
Fun fact about the two characters, Ted and Audrey (although I get the feeling that some people do know this): There are actually the names of Dr. Seuss and his wife, Theodor Seuss Geisel and Audrey Geisel. Ted is like the nickname for Theodor and Ted’s actual name is Theodore
Once-Ler Is Voiced By The Same Actor Who Plays Captain Underpants
Danny DeVito seems to be voicing the short characters, huh?
This is exactly why people need to save the environment!!!!!!!!!!!
5:15: No, he's twelve alright.
Omg i like this movie Tim Droping it on my Birthday
30:34, Dr. Seuss described The Lorax as flying by “the seat of his pants”
Once-ler is a derivative of once upon a time. He tells stories about what was once before.
31:01 - 31:10 good Messenger of Dr. Seuss
The age difference isn't actually that big between Ted and Audrey. He's 12 and she's 14. Hope that makes it feel a bit better
I remember seeing this movie on the airplane to visiting fam in germany lol, nice collab
33:50 - 33:58 you 're fired 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Damn we all really simped so hard for the onceler. Still do but that’s beside the fact.
Me too
I am enjoyed this movie so much I am glad that you’re reacting to this, I love this a lot.
I love you one liner prediction
Don’t worry I too simp for the Oncler
I love this movie.
She’s 14 and he’s 12. Chill bro.
So was katara and anng from Avatar
37:25 "NO!"
He Deserves It
I love beckys top!! It’s so cute
31:29, you have now reached the part where the book ended
Y'all were too weirded out by the pairing😂I thought it was great that it was a younger guy and older girl for once. They're still teens after all, so it was cute. Shoot, even I had a crush on the girl when I was young XD
I like this It teaches that trees aré important for the world and humans were the wans to slowly kill the earth
Truffula seeds take 10 years to germinate, and another 10 to become a full grown tree.
Oncie here never stood a chance at staying relevant.
Heck yeah I love the Lorax
There's a way better song than How Bad Can I Be: "Biggering". They changed it cause it made corporations look too greedy and evil. I think so anyway. You can find the song on TH-cam
0:55, since it’s disloyal to the popular Dr. Seuss book upon which it’s based but also a decent film it’s got a bit of a mixed reception
Also, Ted is actually 12
I cant beleve you two have not watch this move i realy like that mobe
