Love the first movie the faction system is so interesting, but unfortunately the other movies let me downhill give a 4.5 to this one a 3 the 2nd a 1 the last one
I remember as a child that scene made me feel uncomfortable. As I grew older I realized because she gave such a true and genuine reaction to her mom dying.
Tris having intimacy issues and fear of lust was so real for me when I read the book back in high school. A lot of young girls feel that way & Four making sure she felt comfortable going at her pace after seeing her fear was so romantic😭
You can raise the bar more of how you should be treated. Someone accepting that you´re not ready for intimacy and going with your pace is not romantic, it should be the standard 🙂. Anything else is not a healthy relationship...
So true, like its a normal fear for young girls to fear intimacy because of how society veiws it, like nobady wants to be forced. And as teens we deal with fear in one of 2 ways which is the fight or flight instincts. Some people attack the fear to get over or the people that avoid it till their ready.
Fun fact about the shirtless scene: Theo James asked not to show his abs on camera cause he wanted the attention to be focused on the tattoo and the overall scene, not only on his physical appearance 🥰
This is the only one of the three movies that I enjoyed. The best part was definitely the cast! Loved Shailene Woodley, Theo James, and Kate Winslet in their respective roles. I just fell so in love with the books that I expected so much out of the movies..and sad to say, the rest of the films did not live up to my expectations. If y'all do get the chance, please try reading the books! You won't regret it.
I have to agree. There seemed to be some real meat to the concepts in the next movie, but they seemed more lost on exactly how to tell the story, it just fell flat. Real shame too, I went into it never even hearing of any books, and seeing the movie on release in theaters and being blown away... way past the very low expectation going in (was dragged to the show by a friend). The second movie could have cemented this as a timeless classic, much like Star Wars IV-VI and Hunger Games. But something went very wrong, sorta like the same thing that happened with Maze Runner. Not sure what causes it to happen, but alas we all noticed the result.
@@chrisastin184 The last movie was going to be called Ascendant and released as a TV movie, but it was never made..result of poor decisions made by the studio and eventually the lack of interest from the cast to proceed with the series.
@@mariank425 I believe they wanted to make a TV series instead of the 4th movie but the cast backed out because that wasn't what they signed up for and probably other reasons.
I remember Four literally having all of us just wrapped around his finger lol Also I love the reactions to teen movies, it’s so fun rewatch movies I was obsessed with as a teen with you guys again
We need Twilight! I would love to watch these grown men react to the Twilight Series! I found them surprisingly better than expected after watching them with my gf.
@@BaddMedicine Oh, now that is an adaptation that is just executed horrendously, not to mention the casting of the main role, just awful. The books are actually pretty good, the movies basically only focuses on one thing (and that thing isn't even really a thing in the books if you're smart enough to understand them...anyway, no spoilers, we'll talk about it after you've watched them!
Speaking from experience, guys prefer the twilight movies to women. I read the books, watched the movies in theatres on release night with my girlfriends, now I can't remember the last time I watched them. My male best friend,watches them regularly while his wife has 0 interest in them. They will love the series 😅
I don't see how they can complete it and have it be any good. They were doing ok before they completely veered off course in the last film, so now it would be very difficult to wrap it up while putting the story back on track. Personally, I don't even want to see them try.
I find, after binging so many Badd Medicine videos, that I believe you three to be true movie lovers. Some reactors look like they're doing a JOB, but you guys look like you're having FUN. Loving your thoughtful and funny/clever commaraderie. You are each a perfect example of 'don't judge a book by its cover'. Three bodybuilders who are articulate and intelligent ... and silly enough to make me literally lol.😅 You're quickly becoming my go-to reaction video channel!❤️🇨🇦
I actually really liked the first movie in this franchise, and I liked the first book in the series too... but I wasn't a fan of the rest of the movies or books.
Never read the boooe but I’ve always liked the first movie. The other ones are forgettable and I’m surprised they didn’t decide to do a final movie for Four lol
Maybe I’m the only one but I loved all the books. They were powerfully written and I cried when it ended. I agree the last movie was just crazy but the books were amazing.
Literally the first book and movie are amazing but the rest of the movies are utter shit and the second and third books aren’t as good especially the third boks ending
The first film definitely did a great job introducing us to a new dystopian world, I’ve read all the books and it’s still my number 1 series. One thing they didn’t mention in the movie (wasn’t that important) but tris didn’t just pick a random tattoo in the books. She decided to get that design because the 3 crows represent her family members
Here's a story about heights for you guys - My father was a blaster for construction projects, and he had no fear of heights at all.... I mean, this man would nap in the girders under the bridges he would work on. One time, he was helping to take down a building. He was sitting on the edge of the building with his legs dangling, eating and watching the girls in the park below. Perfectly content. He felt eyes on him, and turned to see a few cops and his boss (I think)! "It's ok son, we can talk about this..."! It turned out that an old lady in a building across the street saw him, and got the wrong impression! He was just chilling and having lunch, though....
I'm so glad that you guys enjoy watching these type of movies. Dystopian future movies based on young adult novels get a bad rep sometimes because people think that they're strictly for teens when that couldn't be further from the truth. This is probably also why these movies flew under the radar for you guys when they first came out cause people didn't take them seriously when actually these types of movies are often pretty good.
Shailene Woodley and the boy who plays her brother are in a movie called The Fault in Our Stars - fantastic movie (a book adaptation as well) you should watch that one!
Totally would have chosen a faction like Dauntless when I was a teenager. I think most teenagers would 😂 Getting Tattooed, running around in cool outfits and being rebellious? Sign me up. Now Amity is definitely more my jam 😂
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING THIS!!! I’ve read the books and watched the movies more than ## times, so now it’s your TRIVIA TIME! 1) Kids take the test when you are 16, not 18. It’s never mentioned in the books but if Beatrice and Caleb were taking the test on the same year, they have to be twins. It’s just never discussed. 2) Kate Winslet had a BLAST making this film. She is always in dramas… or dramas…. She said she had so much fun playing a villain, which she’s never gets to do. 3) Kate Winslet was five months pregnant when she made this film. If you notice, they always put books or notebooks or something for her to hold to hide the pregnancy. 4) Theo James 🤤 is an amazing British actor. He was Downton Abbey and other things like that. 5) To make Four’s tattoo in his back (for Tris to see,) it took Six different pieces for each part of the tattoo. The curves of a human body will not allow THAT tattoo to be made in one piece. It took 3 hours for the artists to get them all on his back. 6) Shailene and Miles are extremely great friends, even before they worked together (he got the job because she wanted him in that role.) They had so much trouble with the fight scene in the ring. They rehearsed it but they kept cracking up and laughing. Miles was truly afraid he might hurt her and she, him. It got blocked. They had it down but nerves were getting in the way at filming. So when Tris does the throat punch to Peter, she actually made strong contact by accident. So, the sound you hear Miles make is real. She got him good!! They had to stop filming to make sure he was ok and to let Shailene get over being upset for hurting her friend. 7) Ashley Judd’s character “mom”, was not Divergent. She was raised in Dauntless and defected at her choosing ceremony. So, when she tells Beatrice that “I love you, no matter what,” that was a way of saying it’s ok if you choose a different faction. 8) Tris was not afraid of fire. She paid it no mind the first time she went into her fear scape. She just looked at it. Her fear was of the flock of birds and the second was her fear of being bound or stuck to where she can’t move or go anywhere. In her real final fear factor, she runs to the fire, fights off that British band “A Flock of Seagulls” with a branch and then is bound. Burns rope with fire! 9) You were more right in your reactions than you know when Tris and Four touch one another. When she is punching the bag and Four said, “You’re weak. Use your core body strength,” she shivers and likes the feel of his touch. When she is climbing up the Ferris wheel and a rung breaks, he grabs her waist… and he likes it. When Four has a fear of confinement, in the book the space is getting smaller and is thinking in his mind, “I love touching her.” As the space gets smaller, she is like in his lap! In the film he says, “Take your time, I’m really enjoying myself in here.” These examples are the closest the film could get to the book and keep their rating stay the same. I have much more but this enough for you right now. 🙃 Mr. Oak, I can climb as high as things can go, I have no fear. BUT once I realize I have to get down, that’s when I am in “Oh, shit!” Mode. To answer your question… 50/50. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT ONE!!! Great reactions! I was afraid y’all were going to bomb it.
Tris and Caleb aren't twins, they are I believe like 10 months apart also known as Irish Twins. That's how they are able to do the choosing together. But you are right, it starts at 16 not 18 in the book. But I think in the movie they are actually 18 years old. Another thing is that Kate also didn't want a big fancy trailer. She wanted to have the same size as everyone else plus when Four grabs her, he wasn't supposed to grab her that hard where she almost falls, he felt sorry that happened because of her being pregnant. Shailene and Miles has done a movie together before they did this one, thats how they became friends. Here are Tris's fears. 1. crows in field 2.water tank 3.body of water and rocks 4.being burned at the stake 5.men taking her 6. Tobias and intimacy (She ends up losing this one after she gets together with him.) 7.killing her family
@@janeandle Thanks for the additional information!! I love learning new things. I had to assume Tris and Caleb were twins because they took the test the same year. The only thing mentioned in the book was at age 16, you take the test. They didn’t have a choice to wait til they were 18. Being Irish twins would make sense. (One of my sister’s is nine months older than one of my brothers!) she took a two year break and had me. By the time she was 28, she had 6 kids and 1 miscarriage. I’d be telling daddy to go sleep in the living room! 🤣
@@eddietucker7005 You are sooo welcome, I remember in the first book that Tris mentioned real quick that her and Caleb were like ten months apart. I believe it’s in like the first few chapters or something, it’s been a while since reading it. So, I could be wrong of where at it is. Oh wow and sorry to your mom about that miscarriage. And Lol 😂 yeah, I be like for three months you are on the couch. 😂
@@janeandle Hahaha!!! I would say poor daddy, but dang! Poor momma! I told her once, “Momma, you know there’s a cure for that… wear jeans and keep your legs closed! Yes, that got me the biggest ‘go to hell’ looks I’d have in a long time. ☺️ I seem to kinda remember what your talking about. I need to re-listen to the books. With my Etch-a-Sketch brain, I’m surprised I remember what happened last night!
I have no fear of heights. I work in a 12-story apartment complex in DTLA that has an infinity pool on the roof and I have walked along the edge with no fear. But I am deathly afraid of snakes and clowns.
OMG you guys are easily becoming my favourite reaction channel! I really love how you lot seem like you are friends anyway and you generally love watching movies together, your chemistry (as in friendship) together is extraordinary on screen. 🥰 I would absolutely adore you to watch the rest of this series, the actors do a good job, I haven’t read the books so I actually found all the films quite good. Definitely worth the watch. I would also love for you to react to the Twilight Saga movies. Now be warned, there is 5 films in this series and the books are a lot better than the movies. But still again, definitely worth the watch. Not sure if you would like them, but everyone should watch them at least once in my opinion. It opens up your eyes a lot. Thanks guys!! Keep up the good work! I adore you all! 🥰
Thank you very much for your kind words here. We really do appreciate it. And thank you for spending your time with us! And Twilight is coming mid December-ish 😁🤙
Teen Dystopian movies are kind of a hit and miss. The books are always great but you never know how it’ll translate to screen. I actually ended up really enjoying this movie though, and the series.
I literally started doing a re-read of this series yesterday. Yes, the books are better than the movies and explain some of the things you have questions about. It breaks down the factions a lot more so you can relate to motives a lot better. Tris and Four's relationship is also portrayed on a deeper level. You also understand Tris a lot more, which I think is important considering part of the entire overarching plot is her making decisions outside of the norm, of what people expect. There's an entire different feel to the story when reading the books. I can only highly recommend you read them! Also, there is a fourth Divergent book called Four, which includes his perspective during Divergent! What a coincidence you dropped this video! Glad you guys enjoyed the movie.
The story of a handsome young Abercrombie model who must resist a shirtless scene in a big Hollywood YA movie or Chicago dies. Chicago died. Thanks a million Toby. 💥💥💥
In the books, they do have free days, and it does talk about the day to day work of each faction but they don't really mingle with each other. Most of your questions about the outside will get answered in the next movies. And as usual, I LOVED this reaction, I laugh a lot with you guys, from Mason's "your handsome", to the Oak not liking heights, to him predicting the shirtless scene🤣 to Triss picking up guns and all of the Titanic jokes, I loved that you loved this movie. The books are good but the best one is the first book and the second movie is my favorite so I hope you enjoy that one as well.
Yeah, guys, glad to see you reviewing the Divergent series. I enjoyed it and think you will too. My only regret is they did not finish the last move to finish the story in the novel. Divergent Ascendent is was to be called. Apparently, ratings weren’t good enough for the third movie and Theo and Shailene said they weren’t coming back so it kinda died before the story was finished. Sad.
I think they did Ascendent Part One and then there was supposed to be one more. It sucks to leave it hanging like that. But it somewhat worked as a finale.
The problem was they changed a lot in the third one which I’m not really sure why. The first one was a great adaptation and even the second was pretty good. I don’t know what made them want to change it some much. Anyway it was pretty evident even from the trailer of the third one that things were different so I think a lot of book fans didn’t even watch it. I still did and I think on its own it’s a good movie but not a great adaptation.
Divergent is one of the most inspiring movie out there‼️ I just love to see, even they cancelled the part 4 movie we still have people appreciating there movie💕
The books were written by a psychology student. The war was brought on because of genetic engineering leading to arrogant superiority fighting other superiors - the city was a refuge set up to keep peace between the differences between superior genomes. Shaileene was the alternate Katniss Everdeen choice.
I can sometimes knock myself out of a dream. If it's scary, somehow my brain can figure out that it's not real and I push myself to wake up. It's such a weird feeling but it saves me from nightmares! It's like a video game kick out!
Since i realized once that I was inside my nightmare. I stopped running and fought back. Since then I don't have nightmares anymore. And sometimes if the dream is realistic I can tell that I'm in a dream. It's an interesting world. Only there I can see my father that passed away.
The Oak said you can’t tell yourself to wake up when dreaming, but you can and control it. It’s how I haven’t had a nightmare in years; either wake myself up before it gets too scary or, which is what I usually do, just change the dream completely. It’s lucid dreaming and it is AAAAWESOOOOOME. So am I divergent? 🤪
this was underrated tbh... because the release i think during that time was in competition with some other movies...just sad that they did not continue the last one...
I found this channel a couple of weeks ago and as soon as I saw your Hunger Games and Maze Runner Reactions, I was saying PLEASE DO DIVERGENT!!!! Today is a good day for reactions. Also: I prefer being high in the air to being on the ground. I’m a thrill seeker for sure
I actually do control my dreams if I don’t like how they’re going. I get to a point where I’m like, “This is too wild to be real” and I start making my own choices.
this movie/the books had such a huge impact on me when I was going through a very hard time in my life! unfortunately the rest of the movies stray pretty far from the books, but the first one will always have a special place in my heart
Great reaction! 😊 I've been looking forward to this one. I'm one of few that actually likes this trilogy. Such a great cast. And the cast gets better with each movie. It's been awhile since I've read the books. But there are some things that I remember that are different. Really looking forward to seeing what you guys think of the 2nd movie "Insurgent". Looking forward to the next reaction. 😊
They would definitely need to reboot to fix it all. I agree the first 2 were pretty good and then someone decided the 3rd book should be "fixed?" REALLY!!??? If it ain't broke don't fix it, UGH. Its too bad too because the ending was pretty profound.😒
@@aveemarie268 I’m with you. This is my favorite book series so I am so bummed they didn’t finish it, though it’s their own fault for changing it lol. I still think the last movie is pretty good on its own, but I would have loved it if they stuck more to the book. I’d like a reboot just so I could see the end, but I love Shailene and Theo in those roles so it would take some time for me to adjust to seeing new people in those roles. I think they’re too old to play the parts now.
i think the thing that makes this channel so unique and special is that you take the time to do group thumbnails and they correspond to the films. its a special touch. u make a lot of our days! thank you! this is like my 5th time watching this series from you! I watch this one, maze runner, and of course hunger games a lot, i see you guys did marvel! you also might like lupin! we are waiting patiently for you all to play the walking dead telltale game and beyond two souls! you'll love it!! thank you and merry early christmas!
Thank you so much for reacting to this!! For the years I have been watching reactions, I have never found anyone that would do these movies. I know you are going to love them. The next movies get a bad rap, but I love them. Even when the books were first one everyone hated on the last book and said don't read it. I did anyway and loved it. Question for you guys: Which faction do you think you'd be in? 🤔 I would totally be Amity.
I hope you guys continue this trilogy- some people were extremely upset with the way it ended but this is what happened: There were 4 books: Divergent, Insurgent, Allegiant and Four- They recorded and released Divergent, Insurgent, and Allegiant. (Four was never going to be released, it was the last book but written as a prequel) They also planned a fourth movie called Ascendant. There was no book titled ascendant. This was a way for those adapting the story into the scripts to extend the series into four movies. The author of the books did not play a role in the adaptation. The books are different from the films, point blank. The story was wrapped up at the end of each film, in case the film flopped. Which is why the book fans were angry when Ascendant (the 4th movie) was cancelled because they didn’t make it half way through the story told in Allegiant (the 3rd book). They also changed a ton in the story. ALL OF THIS BEING SAID- I think these three movies are amazing, and I like where they end as well. So I wouldn’t listen to the hatred, and just enjoy these films.
I know this is from almost a year ago, but for those who don't understand how the test works; it's explained in the books. It works in a linear fashion to cut out the factions until only one remains. If Tris had chosen the knife, the predicted result would have been Dauntless (violence, she then would have been asked to kill the dog). If she had chosen the cheese, it would have gone on to confirm clarity for Amity - however she didn't so Amity wasn't considered. She throws herself on the dog to protect the child indicating bravery (Dauntless) and unselfishness (Abnegation; she doesn't care if she gets hurt as long as the child is safe). In the book, she gets told by a man that she knows the truth and it could save him, but she lies and says she doesn't know which rules out Candor. However, it should also rule out Abnegation, which she previously got aptitude for. And there we have Divergent. The mirror thing isn't part of the test.
Great reaction guys. By the way, I often become aware when I'm in a dream and when I'm faced with an obstacle or a difficult task, it starts to repeat like a looping video and I tend to get out of it by my will if I no longer like it or if I cannot find a solution.
I'm interested to see what you guys think of the next two movies. Book readers, in general, don't appreciate the sequels because they changed the stories. So it will be interesting to see what you guys think, since you haven't read the books. Looking forward to your future reactions!
I’ve seen this movie about 3ish times and never laughed this much while watching it 😂…. I’m an only child and I learned early on how to go to the movie theater by myself. So it’s hard for me to watch a movie with someone but you 3 make me wish I was there with you. Can’t wait to see you react to the next one 😊
Fun fact about this film, Kate Winselt was pregnant at the time of filming hence why she is mostly seen covering her bump with a clipboard etc to hide it. 😀
Theres a condition called neurodivergency. People who's brains are hardwired a little differently than others. After researching, it puts this movie into an entirely different perspective. Great reaction guys.
29:30 the strangest thing is i was able to “wake up” in my dream once (or aware that i am dreaming) in that dream, i remember that i was in my neighborhood and i was telling everyone “hey, this is a dream.” and everyone’s just giving me weird faces
I found them through One Piece and just loved their energy and commentary. Hilarious and very open minded to be watching things like this, LOL. Great content guys!
I feel like most of the people who complain about these types of films (referring to book-based films) are those who have read the books. When it comes to people like us, those who tend to watch the films first and then read the books after the fact, if at all. We tend to enjoy the movies more
I tend to read first, but I'm terrible at picturing what I've read in my head, so I really appreciate the films. Plus I tend to prefer films because I can watch/listen to them while I do other things (travelling, gaming, cooking, cleaning, trying to get to sleep, etc), whereas I need to be mostly focused on the book when I'm reading.
@@lisahenry20 Took the words out of my mouth! I have a hard time understanding books when I read unless they are a specific type of book. As juvenile as it sounds my friend helped me realize that I'm best with Young Adult literature and I love poetry/ creative writing. Or coming-of-age writing, with a little bit of psychological fiction. Descriptive writing is everything to me. I do it too and I had a teacher complain that I was using way too many descriptive sentences when I wrote. But that's just personally how I comprehend everything. Audiobooks are a million times better for me because it's easier for me to visualize what's happening when someone else is reading it to me. When I was in school my sister used to read my school books to me to help me understand everything better. My worst unit was our Shakespearian one, my goodness I cannot understand old English for the life of me!! I would read each sentence 5 times and I still couldn't understand what they were trying to say. Again, my amazing sister would read it to me and break down what they were talking about in "regular" English for me to understand it. She and Sparknotes saved me during that unit, I swear! A lot of other genres, my brain just wanders too much because I can't visualize things if they aren't as descriptive. So movie adaptations are the best for me!!
M8les Teller does an excellent job of being a love to hate character while also possessing a wicked, snarkiness that's pretty funny starting with the 2nd. I became a fan of this channel starting with your reaction to the final Top Gun Maverick trailer reaction and love the vibe with you three.
Loved the reaction! Glad you enjoyed it. The books are truly amazing. Really and truly, one of the best book series' I've read and great for a reread. So much so, that the movies were always going to be hard to live up to them. The first film is the closest to the book and it is one of my favourite films. Divergent was beautifully done. They took a lot more of the author's contributions when filming too. However, Insurgent and Allegiant... well. They have soooo much missing from the books that the storylines changed way too much. For example, one of my favourite book characters dies, but in the movies, his scenes are stripped all the way down. This meant his death was not felt in the same way and I almost LOST it🤣 I watched them all in cinema and it physically hurt when I saw them skip integral scenes. Wow. Just realised I'm still mad about it a decade later. They did him so dirty. Uriah deserved better. Good films but the first one is definitely my 5/5. Might have enjoyed them more if I read the books afterwards (then again, I probably wouldn't have watched them if the books weren't so brilliant). I would definitely recommend the book series!!! There are some smaller spin off books too, and audiobooks for them all.
The zipline scene was filmed on top of the buildings in Peachtree Center Atlanta. I was working as a security guard downtown and got some video of the night filming. Got to see a lot of cool filming locations including The Walking Dead.
Strangely, I am afraid of falling backwards from heights. I can be up incredibly high, jump forward from a high place but going backwards down a ladder and I am terrified. Also Ferris wheels terrify me. Lol
Watching your Up reaction was my first time seeing you guys and you have a fan FOREVER. I love this movie series but for once I have not read the books. I grew up with all brothers and I think that might be why I LOVE your reactions so much. Watching this reaction last night directed me straight to your HUNGER GAME REACTION VIDEOS. I watched this last night then the first three hunger game videos and the fourth this morning. I cannot wait for you guys to watch. The other two movies in the DIVERGENT SERIES. As a disabled person who does not have many people to watch movies with anymore I appreciate three new friends to watch favorites with. Thanks guys 🥰
I don't know if you guys will see this comment but, if you see it I think you guys would enjoy The Giver. If you hadn't watched it yet, it's a really good movie! By the way, I love your reactions!! Glad to see you all enjoying these movies!!
Great reaction guys! Since the question was asked... I am not afraid of heights, and it has given me un-interupted employment since I was 18 (34years), as a communication tower climber, fixing antennas and keeping wireless devices online.
Yes! Even though they never made the last one, these are still some of my favorite films. I have requested y'all watch them and I'm so glad you decided to!!
I loved these movies I know other people didn’t enjoy them because it doesn’t follow the books but I been waiting for this one for a while. Let’s gooooo
The book makes one point that I thought was important to make. Four takes them out to the fence and Tris sees that the fence is locked from the outside.. like the wall was built to keep the people in instead of keeping anything or anyone out.
These dystopian books came out about the same time to each other. I made my brother read them after I did and he memorably commented, "What is it about sixteen year old girls?" Dude, it's a tough age. :)

Nobody tak to me. I've been waiting for this
A fear of falling, on the other hand, is prudent and evolutionary
Love the first movie the faction system is so interesting, but unfortunately the other movies let me downhill give a 4.5 to this one a 3 the 2nd a 1 the last one
Loved the books! The First movies was amazing....the Rest kinda let me down ... Especially cause they didnt Film everything 🥺
Why do I enjoy watching these grown, jacked men watch movies based on teen literature so much??
It's your kink? Lol.
😂🤣
LMAO right!
My theory is that I always wish my dad would have enjoyed watching these as much as they do😂 he always watched them with me but they weren’t his favs
I know my reason: I wanna be like them in a few years LOL
The way The Oak manifested shirtless Four is so hilarious. I couldn’t stop laughing when he finally took his shirt off 🤣
Fr JJAJAJAJAJAJJAJJA
@@hilarypadua1049 LALALLALALALAL
If he loved that, he should watch the time travelers wife series. Theo James is naked at some point in nearly episode lol
Tris mom's death still hits hard. The father too but Tris reaction to her mother's death felt real.
I've seen this probably 50 times and that part still makes me cry. Shailene is SO FRICKEN good in that scene💕
Right
NO FRR I forgot how good the acting was
I remember as a child that scene made me feel uncomfortable. As I grew older I realized because she gave such a true and genuine reaction to her mom dying.
If you read the books then some bits of it hit really hard. I can imagine a generation of kids traumatised by this series.
Tris having intimacy issues and fear of lust was so real for me when I read the book back in high school. A lot of young girls feel that way & Four making sure she felt comfortable going at her pace after seeing her fear was so romantic😭
I am high functioning autistic, I always have had intimacy issues, but I work to overcome it. I can relate
You can raise the bar more of how you should be treated. Someone accepting that you´re not ready for intimacy and going with your pace is not romantic, it should be the standard 🙂. Anything else is not a healthy relationship...
So true, like its a normal fear for young girls to fear intimacy because of how society veiws it, like nobady wants to be forced. And as teens we deal with fear in one of 2 ways which is the fight or flight instincts. Some people attack the fear to get over or the people that avoid it till their ready.
@@bryanneal939Same here. I do dream having a relationship one day, just the physical intimacy makes me nervous.
Same here. Intimacy still scares me.@@bryanneal939
Fun fact about the shirtless scene: Theo James asked not to show his abs on camera cause he wanted the attention to be focused on the tattoo and the overall scene, not only on his physical appearance 🥰
Smart on him, men get sexualized too much. Good on Theo for putting the right priorities first.
“ You’re handsome” when Four showed up 😂
All our reactions 😂😂😂😂😂
@@bhargavipbaomggg😅😅
This is the only one of the three movies that I enjoyed. The best part was definitely the cast! Loved Shailene Woodley, Theo James, and Kate Winslet in their respective roles.
I just fell so in love with the books that I expected so much out of the movies..and sad to say, the rest of the films did not live up to my expectations.
If y'all do get the chance, please try reading the books! You won't regret it.
I have to agree. There seemed to be some real meat to the concepts in the next movie, but they seemed more lost on exactly how to tell the story, it just fell flat. Real shame too, I went into it never even hearing of any books, and seeing the movie on release in theaters and being blown away... way past the very low expectation going in (was dragged to the show by a friend).
The second movie could have cemented this as a timeless classic, much like Star Wars IV-VI and Hunger Games. But something went very wrong, sorta like the same thing that happened with Maze Runner. Not sure what causes it to happen, but alas we all noticed the result.
I agree minus the reading the actual books part😅
Didn't the others or one of them just get released as a tv movie? Sad this series got such rough treatment.
@@chrisastin184 The last movie was going to be called Ascendant and released as a TV movie, but it was never made..result of poor decisions made by the studio and eventually the lack of interest from the cast to proceed with the series.
@@mariank425 I believe they wanted to make a TV series instead of the 4th movie but the cast backed out because that wasn't what they signed up for and probably other reasons.
Good to know that “The Oak” gets his name from his devotion to being close to the ground. 😂
I was about to ask about the reasoning for their names (mew here)
I love the reactions to the teen movies but what i love the most is how you guys seems like genuine friends. very happy for you guys. keep it coming!
🙏😁👍
That “hey, 4” at 17:42 was hilarious is to me! 29:25 Lucid Dreaming is when you’re dreaming, you know you’re dreaming, & can manipulate said dream.
"Her whole life is like a Mountain Dew ad" - Mason Quinn 2022 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I remember Four literally having all of us just wrapped around his finger lol
Also I love the reactions to teen movies, it’s so fun rewatch movies I was obsessed with as a teen with you guys again
I too was in love with four and when this came out I was engaged and 20 something 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
We need Twilight! I would love to watch these grown men react to the Twilight Series! I found them surprisingly better than expected after watching them with my gf.
Coming in December 🤙
@@BaddMedicine Oh, now that is an adaptation that is just executed horrendously, not to mention the casting of the main role, just awful. The books are actually pretty good, the movies basically only focuses on one thing (and that thing isn't even really a thing in the books if you're smart enough to understand them...anyway, no spoilers, we'll talk about it after you've watched them!
I’ve been hoping they’ll do Twilight so this has made my day!!!!!!
Speaking from experience, guys prefer the twilight movies to women. I read the books, watched the movies in theatres on release night with my girlfriends, now I can't remember the last time I watched them. My male best friend,watches them regularly while his wife has 0 interest in them. They will love the series 😅
Noooooo twilight sucks
oh no, you're gonna be on a wild ride for this one...
hoping they reboot or complete this series, since the books were damn good
Yes
I don't see how they can complete it and have it be any good. They were doing ok before they completely veered off course in the last film, so now it would be very difficult to wrap it up while putting the story back on track. Personally, I don't even want to see them try.
HBO should pick this up.
its mediocre at best, just a fast cashgrab
The books were utter shit imo
I find, after binging so many Badd Medicine videos, that I believe you three to be true movie lovers. Some reactors look like they're doing a JOB, but you guys look like you're having FUN. Loving your thoughtful and funny/clever commaraderie. You are each a perfect example of 'don't judge a book by its cover'. Three bodybuilders who are articulate and intelligent ... and silly enough to make me literally lol.😅
You're quickly becoming my go-to reaction video channel!❤️🇨🇦
I totally agree with you. I just wait every week to enjoy their videos because they actually enjoy doing this.
I actually really liked the first movie in this franchise, and I liked the first book in the series too... but I wasn't a fan of the rest of the movies or books.
Never read the boooe but I’ve always liked the first movie. The other ones are forgettable and I’m surprised they didn’t decide to do a final movie for Four lol
@@Itzezyyyy I feel like the movie, the books would have been better off just being left as a single entry.
@@ravens.2205 I feel the same way.
Maybe I’m the only one but I loved all the books. They were powerfully written and I cried when it ended. I agree the last movie was just crazy but the books were amazing.
Literally the first book and movie are amazing but the rest of the movies are utter shit and the second and third books aren’t as good especially the third boks ending
The first film definitely did a great job introducing us to a new dystopian world, I’ve read all the books and it’s still my number 1 series. One thing they didn’t mention in the movie (wasn’t that important) but tris didn’t just pick a random tattoo in the books. She decided to get that design because the 3 crows represent her family members
Oh, I thougt it had to do with her fear of birds. Thanks.
mockingjay ngl
I mean they're just asking to get compared to hunger games
Here's a story about heights for you guys - My father was a blaster for construction projects, and he had no fear of heights at all.... I mean, this man would nap in the girders under the bridges he would work on. One time, he was helping to take down a building. He was sitting on the edge of the building with his legs dangling, eating and watching the girls in the park below. Perfectly content. He felt eyes on him, and turned to see a few cops and his boss (I think)! "It's ok son, we can talk about this..."! It turned out that an old lady in a building across the street saw him, and got the wrong impression! He was just chilling and having lunch, though....
Love how spot on the "we're definitely seeing this guy shirtless" prediction was 😂💀
I'm so glad that you guys enjoy watching these type of movies. Dystopian future movies based on young adult novels get a bad rep sometimes because people think that they're strictly for teens when that couldn't be further from the truth. This is probably also why these movies flew under the radar for you guys when they first came out cause people didn't take them seriously when actually these types of movies are often pretty good.
Shailene Woodley and the boy who plays her brother are in a movie called The Fault in Our Stars - fantastic movie (a book adaptation as well) you should watch that one!
Totally would have chosen a faction like Dauntless when I was a teenager. I think most teenagers would 😂 Getting Tattooed, running around in cool outfits and being rebellious? Sign me up.
Now Amity is definitely more my jam 😂
Even as a kid I never would have survived dauntless. I simply would have gone for four LOLLL
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING THIS!!! I’ve read the books and watched the movies more than ## times, so now it’s your
TRIVIA TIME!
1) Kids take the test when you are 16, not 18. It’s never mentioned in the books but if Beatrice and Caleb were taking the test on the same year, they have to be twins. It’s just never discussed.
2) Kate Winslet had a BLAST making this film. She is always in dramas… or dramas…. She said she had so much fun playing a villain, which she’s never gets to do.
3) Kate Winslet was five months pregnant when she made this film. If you notice, they always put books or notebooks or something for her to hold to hide the pregnancy.
4) Theo James 🤤 is an amazing British actor. He was Downton Abbey and other things like that.
5) To make Four’s tattoo in his back (for Tris to see,) it took Six different pieces for each part of the tattoo. The curves of a human body will not allow THAT tattoo to be made in one piece. It took 3 hours for the artists to get them all on his back.
6) Shailene and Miles are extremely great friends, even before they worked together (he got the job because she wanted him in that role.) They had so much trouble with the fight scene in the ring. They rehearsed it but they kept cracking up and laughing. Miles was truly afraid he might hurt her and she, him. It got blocked. They had it down but nerves were getting in the way at filming. So when Tris does the throat punch to Peter, she actually made strong contact by accident. So, the sound you hear Miles make is real. She got him good!! They had to stop filming to make sure he was ok and to let Shailene get over being upset for hurting her friend.
7) Ashley Judd’s character “mom”, was not Divergent. She was raised in Dauntless and defected at her choosing ceremony. So, when she tells Beatrice that “I love you, no matter what,” that was a way of saying it’s ok if you choose a different faction.
8) Tris was not afraid of fire. She paid it no mind the first time she went into her fear scape. She just looked at it. Her fear was of the flock of birds and the second was her fear of being bound or stuck to where she can’t move or go anywhere. In her real final fear factor, she runs to the fire, fights off that British band “A Flock of Seagulls” with a branch and then is bound. Burns rope with fire!
9) You were more right in your reactions than you know when Tris and Four touch one another. When she is punching the bag and Four said, “You’re weak. Use your core body strength,” she shivers and likes the feel of his touch. When she is climbing up the Ferris wheel and a rung breaks, he grabs her waist… and he likes it. When Four has a fear of confinement, in the book the space is getting smaller and is thinking in his mind, “I love touching her.” As the space gets smaller, she is like in his lap! In the film he says, “Take your time, I’m really enjoying myself in here.” These examples are the closest the film could get to the book and keep their rating stay the same.
I have much more but this enough for you right now. 🙃
Mr. Oak, I can climb as high as things can go, I have no fear. BUT once I realize I have to get down, that’s when I am in “Oh, shit!” Mode. To answer your question… 50/50.
LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT ONE!!! Great reactions! I was afraid y’all were going to bomb it.
Cornucopia of information there.
Tris and Caleb aren't twins, they are I believe like 10 months apart also known as Irish Twins. That's how they are able to do the choosing together. But you are right, it starts at 16 not 18 in the book. But I think in the movie they are actually 18 years old. Another thing is that Kate also didn't want a big fancy trailer. She wanted to have the same size as everyone else plus when Four grabs her, he wasn't supposed to grab her that hard where she almost falls, he felt sorry that happened because of her being pregnant. Shailene and Miles has done a movie together before they did this one, thats how they became friends. Here are Tris's fears.
1. crows in field
2.water tank
3.body of water and rocks
4.being burned at the stake
5.men taking her
6. Tobias and intimacy (She ends up losing this one after she gets together with him.)
7.killing her family
@@janeandle Thanks for the additional information!! I love learning new things. I had to assume Tris and Caleb were twins because they took the test the same year. The only thing mentioned in the book was at age 16, you take the test. They didn’t have a choice to wait til they were 18. Being Irish twins would make sense. (One of my sister’s is nine months older than one of my brothers!) she took a two year break and had me. By the time she was 28, she had 6 kids and 1 miscarriage. I’d be telling daddy to go sleep in the living room! 🤣
@@eddietucker7005 You are sooo welcome, I remember in the first book that Tris mentioned real quick that her and Caleb were like ten months apart. I believe it’s in like the first few chapters or something, it’s been a while since reading it. So, I could be wrong of where at it is. Oh wow and sorry to your mom about that miscarriage. And Lol 😂 yeah, I be like for three months you are on the couch. 😂
@@janeandle Hahaha!!! I would say poor daddy, but dang! Poor momma! I told her once, “Momma, you know there’s a cure for that… wear jeans and keep your legs closed! Yes, that got me the biggest ‘go to hell’ looks I’d have in a long time. ☺️
I seem to kinda remember what your talking about. I need to re-listen to the books. With my Etch-a-Sketch brain, I’m surprised I remember what happened last night!
I have no fear of heights. I work in a 12-story apartment complex in DTLA that has an infinity pool on the roof and I have walked along the edge with no fear. But I am deathly afraid of snakes and clowns.
OMG you guys are easily becoming my favourite reaction channel! I really love how you lot seem like you are friends anyway and you generally love watching movies together, your chemistry (as in friendship) together is extraordinary on screen. 🥰
I would absolutely adore you to watch the rest of this series, the actors do a good job, I haven’t read the books so I actually found all the films quite good. Definitely worth the watch.
I would also love for you to react to the Twilight Saga movies. Now be warned, there is 5 films in this series and the books are a lot better than the movies. But still again, definitely worth the watch. Not sure if you would like them, but everyone should watch them at least once in my opinion. It opens up your eyes a lot.
Thanks guys!! Keep up the good work! I adore you all! 🥰
Thank you very much for your kind words here. We really do appreciate it. And thank you for spending your time with us! And Twilight is coming mid December-ish 😁🤙
Teen Dystopian movies are kind of a hit and miss. The books are always great but you never know how it’ll translate to screen. I actually ended up really enjoying this movie though, and the series.
Not The Oak saying “imma be shocked if we don’t see a shirtless scene… with him” 😭😭😭
I literally started doing a re-read of this series yesterday. Yes, the books are better than the movies and explain some of the things you have questions about. It breaks down the factions a lot more so you can relate to motives a lot better. Tris and Four's relationship is also portrayed on a deeper level. You also understand Tris a lot more, which I think is important considering part of the entire overarching plot is her making decisions outside of the norm, of what people expect. There's an entire different feel to the story when reading the books. I can only highly recommend you read them! Also, there is a fourth Divergent book called Four, which includes his perspective during Divergent! What a coincidence you dropped this video! Glad you guys enjoyed the movie.
The story of a handsome young Abercrombie model who must resist a shirtless scene in a big Hollywood YA movie or Chicago dies. Chicago died. Thanks a million Toby. 💥💥💥
In the books, they do have free days, and it does talk about the day to day work of each faction but they don't really mingle with each other. Most of your questions about the outside will get answered in the next movies. And as usual, I LOVED this reaction, I laugh a lot with you guys, from Mason's "your handsome", to the Oak not liking heights, to him predicting the shirtless scene🤣 to Triss picking up guns and all of the Titanic jokes, I loved that you loved this movie. The books are good but the best one is the first book and the second movie is my favorite so I hope you enjoy that one as well.
I do appreciate how Shaileene plays out her factions she started as a helper/servant and chose to be a soldier/police!!!
Yeah, guys, glad to see you reviewing the Divergent series. I enjoyed it and think you will too. My only regret is they did not finish the last move to finish the story in the novel. Divergent Ascendent is was to be called. Apparently, ratings weren’t good enough for the third movie and Theo and Shailene said they weren’t coming back so it kinda died before the story was finished. Sad.
I think they did Ascendent Part One and then there was supposed to be one more. It sucks to leave it hanging like that. But it somewhat worked as a finale.
Are the books alot better? I like reading the genre but aboided this series bc of the movies.
@@MattyBmemes wouldn’t say better, but pretty good. Like Hunger Games & TWD, series/movies deviate a bit from the book plot.
The problem was they changed a lot in the third one which I’m not really sure why. The first one was a great adaptation and even the second was pretty good. I don’t know what made them want to change it some much. Anyway it was pretty evident even from the trailer of the third one that things were different so I think a lot of book fans didn’t even watch it. I still did and I think on its own it’s a good movie but not a great adaptation.
Fun fact: the noise peter made was real. Shailene who plays tris actually hit him in the throat! 😂
Divergent is one of the most inspiring movie out there‼️ I just love to see, even they cancelled the part 4 movie we still have people appreciating there movie💕
The books were written by a psychology student. The war was brought on because of genetic engineering leading to arrogant superiority fighting other superiors - the city was a refuge set up to keep peace between the differences between superior genomes. Shaileene was the alternate Katniss Everdeen choice.
I can sometimes knock myself out of a dream. If it's scary, somehow my brain can figure out that it's not real and I push myself to wake up. It's such a weird feeling but it saves me from nightmares! It's like a video game kick out!
Right? Sometimes I don’t want to leave if it’s not a nightmare though lol.
Since i realized once that I was inside my nightmare. I stopped running and fought back. Since then I don't have nightmares anymore.
And sometimes if the dream is realistic I can tell that I'm in a dream. It's an interesting world. Only there I can see my father that passed away.
Same. It's so great to be able to "nope" out of a scary dream!
Yeah me too. And my heart rate is so elevated that I stay up to calm down 😅
The Oak said you can’t tell yourself to wake up when dreaming, but you can and control it. It’s how I haven’t had a nightmare in years; either wake myself up before it gets too scary or, which is what I usually do, just change the dream completely. It’s lucid dreaming and it is AAAAWESOOOOOME. So am I divergent? 🤪
I love how the shippers jumped out of you hahaha Also the part about Four going shirtless was hilarious
this was underrated tbh... because the release i think during that time was in competition with some other movies...just sad that they did not continue the last one...
I found this channel a couple of weeks ago and as soon as I saw your Hunger Games and Maze Runner Reactions, I was saying PLEASE DO DIVERGENT!!!! Today is a good day for reactions.
Also: I prefer being high in the air to being on the ground. I’m a thrill seeker for sure
I actually do control my dreams if I don’t like how they’re going. I get to a point where I’m like, “This is too wild to be real” and I start making my own choices.
Watching this again with you guys after re-reading the book a few weeks ago makes me realize once again, that the book is just way better
“Our whole life is like a Mountain Dew add” 🤣 🤣 🤣
How many times did Oak say “Hard Pass” during this reaction lmao 💜
I felt that every time ! Lol
My absolute favourite book series! Unfortunately they never made the last movie...but I loved the three they made regardless. Great reaction!
this movie/the books had such a huge impact on me when I was going through a very hard time in my life! unfortunately the rest of the movies stray pretty far from the books, but the first one will always have a special place in my heart
I literally stop everything I’m doing to watch your reactions ❤ I watch you guys like I do my favorite tv series! Please never stop doing this for us
We are here until we can't be😁🤘
Great reaction! 😊
I've been looking forward to this one. I'm one of few that actually likes this trilogy.
Such a great cast. And the cast gets better with each movie.
It's been awhile since I've read the books. But there are some things that I remember that are different.
Really looking forward to seeing what you guys think of the 2nd movie "Insurgent".
Looking forward to the next reaction. 😊
They would definitely need to reboot to fix it all. I agree the first 2 were pretty good and then someone decided the 3rd book should be "fixed?" REALLY!!??? If it ain't broke don't fix it, UGH. Its too bad too because the ending was pretty profound.😒
I really enjoyed them too!!
@@aveemarie268 I’m with you. This is my favorite book series so I am so bummed they didn’t finish it, though it’s their own fault for changing it lol. I still think the last movie is pretty good on its own, but I would have loved it if they stuck more to the book. I’d like a reboot just so I could see the end, but I love Shailene and Theo in those roles so it would take some time for me to adjust to seeing new people in those roles. I think they’re too old to play the parts now.
I'm so happy you are all watching these style movies. I LOVE BADD MEDICINE
i think the thing that makes this channel so unique and special is that you take the time to do group thumbnails and they correspond to the films. its a special touch. u make a lot of our days! thank you! this is like my 5th time watching this series from you! I watch this one, maze runner, and of course hunger games a lot, i see you guys did marvel! you also might like lupin! we are waiting patiently for you all to play the walking dead telltale game and beyond two souls! you'll love it!! thank you and merry early christmas!
No fear whatsoever, love coasters, drops, sky diving and hope to go bungee soon. A 44yr old female.
This used to be my favorite movie like poster on the wall obsessed so watching y’all react to this is hilarious!!!!!
Yes!!!! I've been waiting for this! I enjoy your videos so much guys and your movie choices have been really cool so far! More please...
I always lose the feeling in my hands when I get too high. Not a great feeling.
I love this video! I can’t wait to see you guys watch the other two ☺️
Thank you so much for reacting to this!! For the years I have been watching reactions, I have never found anyone that would do these movies. I know you are going to love them. The next movies get a bad rap, but I love them. Even when the books were first one everyone hated on the last book and said don't read it. I did anyway and loved it.
Question for you guys: Which faction do you think you'd be in? 🤔 I would totally be Amity.
Jeez Answer, 17:41 nearly made me choke on my drink 😂
I hope you guys continue this trilogy- some people were extremely upset with the way it ended but this is what happened: There were 4 books: Divergent, Insurgent, Allegiant and Four- They recorded and released Divergent, Insurgent, and Allegiant. (Four was never going to be released, it was the last book but written as a prequel) They also planned a fourth movie called Ascendant. There was no book titled ascendant. This was a way for those adapting the story into the scripts to extend the series into four movies. The author of the books did not play a role in the adaptation. The books are different from the films, point blank. The story was wrapped up at the end of each film, in case the film flopped. Which is why the book fans were angry when Ascendant (the 4th movie) was cancelled because they didn’t make it half way through the story told in Allegiant (the 3rd book). They also changed a ton in the story. ALL OF THIS BEING SAID- I think these three movies are amazing, and I like where they end as well. So I wouldn’t listen to the hatred, and just enjoy these films.
I know this is from almost a year ago, but for those who don't understand how the test works; it's explained in the books. It works in a linear fashion to cut out the factions until only one remains.
If Tris had chosen the knife, the predicted result would have been Dauntless (violence, she then would have been asked to kill the dog).
If she had chosen the cheese, it would have gone on to confirm clarity for Amity - however she didn't so Amity wasn't considered.
She throws herself on the dog to protect the child indicating bravery (Dauntless) and unselfishness (Abnegation; she doesn't care if she gets hurt as long as the child is safe).
In the book, she gets told by a man that she knows the truth and it could save him, but she lies and says she doesn't know which rules out Candor. However, it should also rule out Abnegation, which she previously got aptitude for. And there we have Divergent.
The mirror thing isn't part of the test.
you guys should definitely check out a quiet place! I think it would totally be up your alley. Great reaction video as always guys :)
the first movie is literally perfect for me, and i've read the books as well! so excited for your new journey :)
Great reaction guys. By the way, I often become aware when I'm in a dream and when I'm faced with an obstacle or a difficult task, it starts to repeat like a looping video and I tend to get out of it by my will if I no longer like it or if I cannot find a solution.
I'm interested to see what you guys think of the next two movies. Book readers, in general, don't appreciate the sequels because they changed the stories. So it will be interesting to see what you guys think, since you haven't read the books. Looking forward to your future reactions!
I’ve seen this movie about 3ish times and never laughed this much while watching it 😂…. I’m an only child and I learned early on how to go to the movie theater by myself. So it’s hard for me to watch a movie with someone but you 3 make me wish I was there with you. Can’t wait to see you react to the next one 😊
Fun fact about this film, Kate Winselt was pregnant at the time of filming hence why she is mostly seen covering her bump with a clipboard etc to hide it. 😀
Theres a condition called neurodivergency. People who's brains are hardwired a little differently than others. After researching, it puts this movie into an entirely different perspective. Great reaction guys.
29:30 the strangest thing is i was able to “wake up” in my dream once (or aware that i am dreaming)
in that dream, i remember that i was in my neighborhood and i was telling everyone “hey, this is a dream.” and everyone’s just giving me weird faces
So sad they never actually made the last film :/
lmao Oak i love your reactions so much hahaha. Your face when Four started taking off his shirt 😂❤
I really enjoyed these movies, very confusing sometimes but it gives the Hunger Games vibes! Great choice Badd
I found them through One Piece and just loved their energy and commentary. Hilarious and very open minded to be watching things like this, LOL.
Great content guys!
Finally its here!! I've recommending this to you guys! Most people don't really like this trilogy but I do really like it!
I forgot how much I loved this movie when I was younger. I need to rewatch the whole series now 😂
I feel like most of the people who complain about these types of films (referring to book-based films) are those who have read the books. When it comes to people like us, those who tend to watch the films first and then read the books after the fact, if at all. We tend to enjoy the movies more
I tend to read first, but I'm terrible at picturing what I've read in my head, so I really appreciate the films. Plus I tend to prefer films because I can watch/listen to them while I do other things (travelling, gaming, cooking, cleaning, trying to get to sleep, etc), whereas I need to be mostly focused on the book when I'm reading.
@@lisahenry20 Took the words out of my mouth! I have a hard time understanding books when I read unless they are a specific type of book. As juvenile as it sounds my friend helped me realize that I'm best with Young Adult literature and I love poetry/ creative writing. Or coming-of-age writing, with a little bit of psychological fiction.
Descriptive writing is everything to me. I do it too and I had a teacher complain that I was using way too many descriptive sentences when I wrote. But that's just personally how I comprehend everything.
Audiobooks are a million times better for me because it's easier for me to visualize what's happening when someone else is reading it to me. When I was in school my sister used to read my school books to me to help me understand everything better.
My worst unit was our Shakespearian one, my goodness I cannot understand old English for the life of me!! I would read each sentence 5 times and I still couldn't understand what they were trying to say. Again, my amazing sister would read it to me and break down what they were talking about in "regular" English for me to understand it. She and Sparknotes saved me during that unit, I swear!
A lot of other genres, my brain just wanders too much because I can't visualize things if they aren't as descriptive. So movie adaptations are the best for me!!
This movie made me buy the book, and very much loved it. I loved books so much more after reading the Divergent series. Love your reactions btw. >_
M8les Teller does an excellent job of being a love to hate character while also possessing a wicked, snarkiness that's pretty funny starting with the 2nd. I became a fan of this channel starting with your reaction to the final Top Gun Maverick trailer reaction and love the vibe with you three.
I've been waiting for this!!
I love the overriding theme that we are all multidimensional and can't be boxed.
Finally, been looking for reactions for this movie. So many maze runner and hunger games reactions but couldnt find much divergent
Loved the reaction! Glad you enjoyed it.
The books are truly amazing. Really and truly, one of the best book series' I've read and great for a reread. So much so, that the movies were always going to be hard to live up to them. The first film is the closest to the book and it is one of my favourite films. Divergent was beautifully done. They took a lot more of the author's contributions when filming too. However, Insurgent and Allegiant... well. They have soooo much missing from the books that the storylines changed way too much. For example, one of my favourite book characters dies, but in the movies, his scenes are stripped all the way down. This meant his death was not felt in the same way and I almost LOST it🤣 I watched them all in cinema and it physically hurt when I saw them skip integral scenes. Wow. Just realised I'm still mad about it a decade later. They did him so dirty. Uriah deserved better.
Good films but the first one is definitely my 5/5. Might have enjoyed them more if I read the books afterwards (then again, I probably wouldn't have watched them if the books weren't so brilliant). I would definitely recommend the book series!!! There are some smaller spin off books too, and audiobooks for them all.
"Ow that's my spine you just hit!"
Has a different meaning when they're both alone in a room together.....
I love your reactions, please push the last 2 of these, keen to watch em
And would be happy if yous watch southpaw when u can
I love this channel so much. During your Harry Potter era it was everything, and every other video you guys drop is just 🙌🏼 top tier.
i love the good vibes all three of you give (well four lol) its very comforting
The zipline scene was filmed on top of the buildings in Peachtree Center Atlanta. I was working as a security guard downtown and got some video of the night filming. Got to see a lot of cool filming locations including The Walking Dead.
Strangely, I am afraid of falling backwards from heights. I can be up incredibly high, jump forward from a high place but going backwards down a ladder and I am terrified. Also Ferris wheels terrify me. Lol
Discovered these books and movies as an adult --genuinely love Tris!
Watching your Up reaction was my first time seeing you guys and you have a fan FOREVER. I love this movie series but for once I have not read the books. I grew up with all brothers and I think that might be why I LOVE your reactions so much. Watching this reaction last night directed me straight to your HUNGER GAME REACTION VIDEOS. I watched this last night then the first three hunger game videos and the fourth this morning. I cannot wait for you guys to watch. The other two movies in the DIVERGENT SERIES. As a disabled person who does not have many people to watch movies with anymore I appreciate three new friends to watch favorites with. Thanks guys 🥰
Omg I love you guys.. Thank you for reacting to my favorite movies
I don't know if you guys will see this comment but, if you see it I think you guys would enjoy The Giver. If you hadn't watched it yet, it's a really good movie!
By the way, I love your reactions!! Glad to see you all enjoying these movies!!
Great reaction guys! Since the question was asked... I am not afraid of heights, and it has given me un-interupted employment since I was 18 (34years), as a communication tower climber, fixing antennas and keeping wireless devices online.
I loved these books so much but only enjoyed the first two movies, excited to binge these tonight! Here we go!!
OMG CAN'T BELIEVE IT YESSSSSSSSSS
BADD MEDICINE IS BACK ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Really "the answer" was that joke about the door and rose necessary? Really?
Lucid Dreaming Oak is when you can do basically anything in a dream
Yes! Even though they never made the last one, these are still some of my favorite films. I have requested y'all watch them and I'm so glad you decided to!!
I loved these movies I know other people didn’t enjoy them because it doesn’t follow the books but I been waiting for this one for a while. Let’s gooooo
The book makes one point that I thought was important to make. Four takes them out to the fence and Tris sees that the fence is locked from the outside.. like the wall was built to keep the people in instead of keeping anything or anyone out.
One of my favs. You guys have a great ability to analyze🤌🏼 So many people aren’t deep thinkers. Keep that “short” up. Love you 3 ❤️✌️
These dystopian books came out about the same time to each other. I made my brother read them after I did and he memorably commented, "What is it about sixteen year old girls?" Dude, it's a tough age. :)
"Yeahh.. Hard Pass" My thoughts exactly when I first saw it ))
