Books vs. Movies Review: Tuck Everlasting

In which Matt and Hatter compare Natalie Babbitt's timeless children's story with the Disney adaptation from 2002. And absolutely nothing else happens.

All clips belong to Disney. Music is "Showdown," by Kevin MacLeod, http://incompetech.com

Also, the next review is NOT Lord of the Rings, though I know it seems like it. Sorry.

Have you ever considered a Books vs. Movies vs. Musicals Review for "Mary Poppins?"

[bandgeek8408]

@MysticDestroyer13 Absolutely, though I need to get my hands on the books.

I would love to see a B.V.M. review of a series of Unfortunate events as well.

Northern Lights by Phillip Pullman and the Nicole Kidman adaptation, "The Golden Compass". I would also love James and the giant peach, Atonement, Stardust, A series of Unfortunate events etc.

1. Love your clock, never seen one that had the numbers like that before.

2. Speaking of the clock, you really shouldn't have had it in frame when you did the cut scene.

Agreed 100 % The book was WAY better than the movie. Although I would argue that the book did have a hint of romance. I mean even if Jesse asked Winny to drink the water only for the reason that he wanted a companion it would have turned into romance. In fact if I remember right the other family members saw that as a possibility as well in the book.

@drnasenbaer ahh, it is. I should have seen that, thank you.

[drnasenbaer]

@ayumihamano If you take a close look at the clock, you'll notice that the numbers are reversed... so its running counter-clockwise but not backwards.

I keep trying to find you on Facebook, but I'm guessing you have an "only friends" account, but if that isn't the case could you tell us how we can find, or subscribe to you on fb?

I am massive fan!!! I thought Nanny McPhee would be so cool to do. The book is great and the movie is also good(emma thomson is amazing) so it would be awesome to see which one would win.Thanks :) Me and my bff did a vidio it was fun and to the random people who might happen to read this, check it out, and yes we are 12 year old british kids:)
