my friend lent me the book when she heard i hadnt read it. i must a love how they use it in the movie. the actual part from the book is when he goes to talk to the man in the house (the once-ler). the rest wasnt there, but i loooove this take on it!
o shush. i watched the original movie of the lorax and read the book and who cares if their changing it a bit. the moral is the same and thats all that matters.
It actually is really close to the book, with the once-ler telling him the story, and the barbaloots that are around the forest. Also he is making the town is named after the stuff the onceler makes out of the trees called thneed. and also, at the end of the story he gives the boy the last seed. Which is shown in the newer trailer. Its about right to the book. But obviously things are added to make it a lengthy movie
Am I the only one upset that this could potentially butcher the greatest story of all time? Sit down with your kids and read the story to them. Let their imaginations bring life to the illustrations. Such a powerful lesson. Hopefully it won't be lost amidst the over stimulation of this movie.
To those of you who don't like it, you're forgetting one important thing: Christopher Meledandri. He executive produced Horton Hears a Who, produced by Blue Sky Studios. They did a great job adapting the story and treating the source material with respect. If Chris does the same for The Lorax, it'll be good too.
If y'all still don't like it, admit this: it's better than The Cat in the Hat, for sure!
Man, they can't even leave the original story unaltered. I mean if they want to show what the kid did with the last seed that's one thing, but don't mess up the original poem. I'll watch this when it ends up the in 5 dollar bin, if it ever does. You know what I've never seen around? That Horton Hears a Who movie from a few years back. Must have had a tiny print run.
Dr. Seuss is rolling over in his grave. The original story focused more on the lorax than the boy who discovered him. The original story was a tragedy not a comedy.... If anyone wants to see the true version read the book or watch the original animated version.
@guerreroums If you watch the other Trailer for this movie it talks about how he town uses plastics and stuff and how there are no more trees because of what happened. It has some environmental things in it.
@TheCrazyCoasterKid I have seen it, but the boy doesn't seem really interested. I think the girl seems a bit more caring about the enviornment than the boy. He just seems to want to impress the girl. That's all I'm saying.
This is literally my favorite Dr. Seuss story. I'm a big fan of the original cartoon movie that they did of this. However, the new version seems very promising. I think they have given it an original back story in terms of the boy having a crush on the red-haired girl and her wanting to see "a living tree" leading up to his journey to find the Once-ler. The only thing that I am a bit surprised at is that they actually show the Once-ler character.
