Has There Ever Been a GOOD Jack Frost Movie?

- I'm sick and tired of everybody telling me that 1998's Jack Frost starring Michael Keaton isn't a good movie. How dare you. That has always been a certified classic. But maybe we should look at some other Jack Frost movies as well, just to see how they stack up...

Michael Keaton is snowman
Hi dad
merry christmas
Hi
jack frost?? you mean that touya todoroki lookin dude they ship with elsa???
yeah
I will consistently maintain that rise of the guardians is an incredibly underrated film. I have always loved it
it was a good movie but had issues with marketing and made wierd decision for the characters... Like giving Santa a Russian accent... the easter bunny having an australian accent wasn't as wierd because the actor is australian... But the russian accent on santa makes no sense whatsoever... like the somebody told baldwin to do a russian accent for a character who has no connection to russia...
What accent should he have had then?
Hard agree
ME TOO! Pushing it on everyone until I’m dead
There fandom is huge fun fact
Before watching Rise of The Guardians, I had no idea who Jack Frost is. Makes the whole no one can see him because no one believes thing hit even harder.
@JayLeeBeanz I get you, I'm Brazilian and I never understood who was Jack Frost and what he did until watching this video, bc only the southernmost tip of Brazil has snowfall so there's no way he could become famous here
@JayLeeBeanz I wouldn’t say it’s an American thing, I never knew about him until rise of the guardians, either. But the US does have kind of an obsession with adapting Norse Mythology, so it seems to have been a less popular version of that.
@@thedestroyasystem it's origin is believed to be anglo- Saxon / Scandinavian so that's probably why it's well known in America, from English culture in general.
@@josefanderson1764 ahh yeah, when I looked it up originally sites were saying he was based off a character from Norse Mythology, Jokul Frosti. But then later sources were saying the two characters were unrelated. You’re probably correct, my bad. 😅
As someone who lived and breathed tumblr during its “The Big 4” era, thank you for recognizing that Jack Frost from Rise of The Guardians is an S-tier character.
THE BIG 4 WAS MY ENTIRE CHILDHOOD 😭😭
IT IS CANON AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME OTHERWISE
What’s that
@@harparp7205 "The Big 4" is a crossover fandom with Rapunzel (Tangled), Hiccup (httyd), Merida (Brave), & Jack Frost (rotg)
@@fairy3731 i remember after frozen got released some people refer it to the big 6 basically the same group with Anna and Elsa
When you said “Shut up Finneas” my brain immediately thought you were gonna come back with “We’re all here to see Ferb.”
I'm glad I'm not the only one 😂
Lol me to
Same bro😭😭
Same. 😂
SAME!! 😂
Rise of the Guardians is SO good. It has honestly always bugged me that it hasn't gotten the acknowledgement
it deserves.
its an even better book! idk, has no one here read the book "The Guardians of Childhood" that rise of the guardians is based on? it was like one of my favorite books!
yk what, imma go off and read it again now that im talking about it.
@@jatinpresse5980 I didn't know it was based on a book
Young me though Jack was a dream boat in that movie lmao
You are correct - I have never even heard of it before lol
@@jatinpresse5980 I had the books before knowing the movie existed- I watched the movie a while ago and didn't like it much, but it's pretty okay.
serial killer jack frost

YOU IGNORED A VERY CLEAR B TIER YOU JUDGMENTAL MONSTER
Jack frost 1979 is the best and no one can tell me any different
I WANTED PEOPLE TO GO WATCH YOUR VIDEO STOP REFUSING MY LOVE
Okay you convinced me, I'll go watch his video
@@ScottCramer you don't know how quickly I moved to GG's channel after watching this video. Got me super stoked to think that the both of you posted Jack Frost vids at the same time.
@@ScottCramer "ah dude he's flirting" lmao
Dude, I love Jack Frost. I always remember it as being goofy and weird, but also super emotional. A kid missing their deceased parent, the parent wanting to comfort their child, tell them everythings gonna be okay. Also; the bully sympathizing with the main character about not having a father, then helping out (and eventually becoming friends)? Thats grade-A storytelling, perfect for a holiday film.
Yesss! It was my favorite movie as a kid. I used to watch it over and over, year round lol
I watched it in class when I was in 5th grade.
No joke that Jack Frost horror movie TRAUMATIZED me as a kid. I didn't sleep for weeks. My mother thought it was the Michael Keaton movie. The dude flipping melted into snow in the first five minutes.
The only part I remember is when he used his carrot nose as another “appendage” on that poor girl in the bath
I’m so happy Rise of the Guardians is finally getting some recognition. When it was new in theatres it was one of my favourite movies as a kid.
Same! Great, now I should watch it again
Youd be (un)surprised with how utterly popular it (mainly jack frost) is with teen girls on tumblr
@@wafflefalafel9442 oh no… I will not check
Ive never seen it and I hate most of the fanart like Scott said but I’m glad that the Jelsa ship introduced me to that mashup of Let Her Go and Let It Go because that SLAPS ok
ua-cam.com/video/KYAs4WPZ1jY/v-deo.html
this slaps and I will not be dissuaded
Amazing that Scott watched 5 different movies just to avoid watching the new Home Alone movie. And he was so right to make this call.
I’m so glad you rated Rise of The Guardians positively. It’s one of my favorite movies
his hear cut reminds me of ben 10. Coincidence?, I think NOT!!
Yea that movie has NO RIGHT being that much of a masterpiece. When I first watched it, I didnt expect much, just a fun kids movie. Well, yea it is a fun kids movie, but the story is also great, the animation is awesome, the characters are memorable, the villain is great, just everything about it is awesome.
@@ELCarnerojrLFDO i never noticed that lol but ya your right they look like that have the same hair cut.
"There's this devilishly handsome heartthrob, or...this cartoon guy." I absolutely lost it, I'm so happy Marty's version got the recognition he deserved.
Scott said the name Jack Frost 28 times
He said just Jack 21 times
He said just frost 6 times,
The name Jack Frost was said 13 times in the video by someone other than Scott.
I'm pretty sure I got an A on this test.
THE PREMISE IS STUPID
You could be lying but like hell am I gonna check
@AstroBlast result?
@@spooderman6312 when someone says like hell it means they won’t
@@apollyon1987 oh. I read it wrong
“Rise of the guardians is underrated” “no one ever talked about rise of the guardians” Have people here never heard of the absolute monster that was the Rise of the Brave Tanged Frozen Dragons fandom?
Wasn't there a full on petition to make a sequel with Elsa and Jack in it? Man that ship was the pillar of that fandom era lol
Oh god I remember my time in that fandom! To put it simply, it was crazy! 😆
It was soo good until Frozen came out and people started shipping Jelsa like "ice romance goes brrrr", the fandom was strong, with a shit ton of lore and all but then jelsa fans came up to ruin everything and make it a decadent version of its former glorious past
no we normal. thanks 🙂
oh no i repressed this memory why must you remind me
I remember seeing a theory that the stop motion Jack and Frosty Jack are the same character, since both movies are Rankin Bass productions. I do like the idea that Jack became bitter over the centuries (but not beyond redemption)
Does that mean father winter is the man on the moon or... Just another guardian?
There actually is a Rankin Bass crossover special called "Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July" that connects the two(he shows up for like 5 mins at the end but still), along with Rudolph and Frosty
@@AmbrosiaBriefsohhh that's right!
I Knew It!
I absolutely adore Rise of the Guardians , it’s my comfort movie and I watch it all year round whenever I need something to cheer me up!
I was full on screaming of happiness when you put Rise of The Guardians' Jack Frost on S tier, but went completely silent when you mentioned the fanarts, we don't talk about that Scott 😂
I don't see how it's disgusting if fans want to make art about an animated character, I guess I don't get it
@@fonzie2098 I’m pretty sure Scott is talking about the gratuitous NSFW fanarts of Jack Frost, not of fanart in general.
@@isalooney oh
I've found the same problem with fanfic. I just want some interesting stories, not jack/pitch smut 😭
Ah yes…Jelsa-
The better question is has there ever been a bad jack frost movie?
That horror movie one
@@imanowlexterminator watched it a couple nights ago...I remember watching it when I was you g and got scared...and my son was.just qs scared so...not a bad movie. lol
so true
The transition from Jack Frost's face to yours as you talked about anybody being able to be Jack Frost was excellent editing, and then the hilarious ending scenes began.
Rankin Bass is so meaningful to me. Not only does it feel like Christmas, but they're so unique, and I actually love the choppy stop motion. Sure, they're often weird and bad (thinking about "Rudolph's Shiny New Year" with the Time Archipelago) but they're great.
Edit: You can deny Rankin Bass all you want, but the Snow Miser and Heat Miser's songs are great
Oh I always ADORED Rise of the Guardians. It was quite cute and sweer and the animation was very pretty :)
Ah yes, Sweer.
Yes I always forget about it but whenever someone mentions it I always remember how much i love it
@@Wall9. ikr? I don't actually own that many movies- I just stream most of them- but I couldn't not buy ROtG just because I loved it so much
@@SpecialInterestShow I think I know what I’m buying always loved the characters designs in that movie
@@Wall9. on one hand I wished for a sequel, but on the other hand it's so good on its own that I'm not sure how they could best themselves!
I’m glad we all cherish Jack Frost from Rise of the Guardians. I was obsessed with him and thought I was alone 😭
thought you were alone? you must've not been on the internet very much when it came out lol
@@hell0mega Yeah I didn't have access to the internet until about 2015, and by then I completely forgot about my obsession lol
@@KrumpOcake oh man! well i hope reading all these comments makes you feel validated in your obsession haha!
I'm crying at that plot twist! "Snow dad is better than no dad."
The Amazing Spiderman came out when I was in high school and I resonated so much with how awkward Peter is in that version lol. It's my fave (live action) Spiderman, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who loves it. Also glad you mentioned Rise of the Guardians because that's a great movie, too.
Dude, the amazing spiderman is the only spiderman I acknowledge as existing, if only because tom holland’s acting annoys me. (No hate lol, just not a fan)
Rise of the Guardians has always been my favorite iteration of the children’s mythical characters, actually how I learned about Jack Frost in the first place.
Rise of the Guardians is genuinely one of my favorite movies ever, like I was obsessed with the books when I was younger and love rewatching the movie now. It makes me so happy to see other people appreciating it too :]
i literally cried when the kid saw Jack Frost for the first time in Rise of the Guardians. What a masterpiece of a movie with a criminally underrated reputation
I actually love Jack Frost. I just thought no one cared about it. Rise of the Guardians is so underrated, they rarely play that on TV. I even saw it in theaters when it came out. Jack Frost was my Elsa lol
Why were the 90s so obsessed with divorced and dead parents to make people feel good though 💀
I would record the rankin bass jack frost movie and constantly watch it. I love jack frost!
Did not know he was in frosty the snowman (never watched it looked boring).
god i remember seeing rotg in theaters and being OBSESSED with it for so long
Jack Frost was my Elsa too, i love Rise of the Guardians as well, such a sweet and wholesome movie
i was one of those kids who shipped jack frost and elsa 🥴
I came expecting _Rise of the Guardians_ slander...
My expectations have been exceeded, and I am thoroughly impressed. One of my favorite movies
I’m here for the Rise of the Guardians love. Might also be one of my favorite interpretations of Santa too❤️
We love Russian Hot Santa.
I’m so glad Rise of the Guardians got the recognition it deserved, it’s honestly one of my favorite animated movies
I used to be obsessed with Rise of the Guardians and I agree: it is SUCH a good movie
Maya 👁👄👁
Same, I loved Rise of the Guardians as a child.
Louie Prada Gucci, Louie Prada Gucci
Pop them tags pop them tags
I dont care if people say Rise of Guardians is bad that movie was my childhood and i love it
Rise of the Guardians is a good movie and that's final
Who in H E Double Hockey Sticks is saying that its a bad movie !?!
i watched it again the other day and it’s probably one of my favorite christmas movies now. i don’t generally like movies but i like ROTG. jack was such a cool and well-developed character imo.
People who say Rise of the Guardians is bad are scientifically wrong 🥶
Being a mega Rankin Bass fan since forever, I’m so happy someone was talking about their Jack Frost specials!! Both movies you showed are some of my favorites! By the way, to answer your question on why Jack seemed friendlier in his solo special, I kind of have a theory as to why. I think chronologically his solo movie came first, and after being dumped by Eliseia, he grew a certain bitterness towards the world and a pessimistic view on love. With his attitude change, he developed an icy heart (like Winter Warlock in Santa Claus is Coming to Town) and his appearance changed as well to reflect it. At the end of Winter Wonderland, he learned to love again, his icy heart melted, and is seen completely reformed in Rudolph and Frosty’s Christmas in July as one of Frosty’s friends.
I grew up with Santa Clause 3: The Escape Clause alot as a kid. Its nostalgic for me
Rise of the Guardians was a movie I put on as background noise and then ended up being one of my favorite holiday movies, too underrated 👌
same here. first i didn`t really know what it was and i didn`t care (plus i am usually not really into holiday movies) but it`s just awesome
I’d consider the Snow Miser as an iteration of Jack Frost as well
Maybe Snow Miser is one of Father Winter’s snow spirits like Jack Frost!
It's an absolute crying shame that Scott has been consistently getting less views and subs, you are ligit the most original youtuber and create high-quality low-quality content, (which is the best kind)
Can't believe the Michael Keaton jack frost movie is real and not a fever dream I had. In fact I realize I've watched it more times than I'd like to admit. But also 10/10 best movie in the world
Scott you aren’t alone, I used to watch that Michael Keaton Jack Frost movie all the time as a kid and my mom hated it, but I distinctly remember a little while where i watched it like everyday
Kids are so weird. I'm pretty sure I watched "treasure planet" everyday for so long
I like when Scott talks about things "no one cares about" it makes me feel good for caring about it also... no one talks about it
I unironically love the Jack Frost slasher film. I feel you.
I freakin love Rise of the Guardians!
I haven't seen it in a good while though. The few clips shown here ended up bringing back childhood memories and got me tearing up.
Growing up as the outcast among my classmates, I heavily relate to Jack Frost's desire to being seen.
The Frosty Special Jack and stop motion Jack are meant to be the same (it's confirmed in Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July where he helps save the day and is his stop motion version in his Frosty outfit) and if you look at it like that his stop motion version is a bit more interesting. Basically he used to be this really kind hearted winter spirit, but due to everything with Elisa he became a lot more bitter (especially if he sees someone basically taking credit for what he did). It's only when Frosty and Crystal are kind to him that he remembers how he used to be and tries to get back to that somewhat. His redemption comes full circle when he hears his pals Frosty and Crystal are in trouble and he wastes no time stopping by to help out. Also of note is how his solo special came out after the Frosty one (and his final appearance came out a bit later that same year) so they already had a personality for him and could have just kept the ball rolling with that, but choose to make him very different. In that sense he too is a perfect Jack Frost.
That’s a pretty good theory.
Good timeline theory
Man, the 70’s stop motion Jack Frost is legit one of my favorite Christmas movies. I love it. I mean, it’s basically The Little Mermaid, but the Little Ice Fairy Guy. 😂
yes, that one was my childhood as well as all of the rankin bass Christmas movies!
I am personally insulted that scott disdains these stop motion animation movies?! WHY?!?!
Christmas?? It aired in late January in preparation for Groundhog Day.
I was obsessed with Rise of The Guardians as a kid. I remember getting the McDonald's card for Jack Frost after seeing it at the cinema and being like ridiculously happy and I used to carry it around until I got older and lost interest. I still watch it every year. Its such a shame it didn't spawn a franchise of holiday movies
Great video Scott! Merry Christmas!
Honestly scott you’re such a good UA-camr you are able to make videos like this and share ur opinions and rank stuff without making people feel bad about liking certain characters or movies like I’ve felt watching others do these types of videos and it makes it actually enjoyable to watch not leaving u all self conscious about ur movie preferences
I watched Jack Frost with Michael Keaton last Christmas, and ended up crying my eyes out. It may be a silly premise, but it's actually a really good depiction of handling grief from losing a loved one. It's depicted in a silly way so children can digest it easier. It's actually quite the brilliant film, I just think people go into it expecting something they don't receive.
Yesss! I use to love this movie and did consider it as apart of my holiday movie lineup lol
I didn't cry much at movies as a kid, but this one made me emotional and I definitely had some tears at least some of the times I had watched it. It's been a long time since I've seen it, but I don't see why it gets such a bad rap. I'm sure somethings do not hold up but cmon...."snowdad better than no dad?" that's genius LOL
I never wanted to see it again coz it made me so sad 🥺
Finally, someone who understands the most important part of the Christmas season is ranking Jack Frost movies on a tier list!
scott just keeps getting better and better. no youtuber leaves me happier after watching a video than scott does. thank you.
Scott well done video and I teared up watching that movie and while reading the comments, I had no idea this movie had so much love and thank you for making this.
i remember watching rise of the guardians as a kid and having a weird obsession with jack frost. for years id forgotten the movie existed or what it was just that i thought that one jack frost guy is cool and now that you show him its a crazy weird nostalgia hit. anyone else? nah just me ok.
Literally same, I was obsessed with Jack Frost
Totally had a childhood crush on him and Bugs Bunny.
Yesss
Nope me too
@@greenfox42 buggs bunny???
yeah, the one with the snowman. ☃️
amazing video, really enjoyed!!
Thank you Scott, for all the hot takes to keep us warm this winter.
Scott, you redeemed yourself in my eyes when you moved Michael Keaton to the S tier. I was about to throw these hands
Damn straight! He would have done my boy dirty if he kept him in F tier. Scott would have to come get these hands too.
Jack Frost (Rise of the Guardians) was the Eboy of my CHILDHOOD. My crush dressed up as him, and I’ve never seen him the same way SINCE 😏
Ayoo
I could imagine Michael Keaton just accidentally saying on set
*I am snowman*
i have thought about "snow dad's better than no dad" every day of my life ever since i heard it for the first time 18 years ago and i will CONTINUE to think about it every day until i die, thank you very much
I can feel the fellow rise of the guardians fans as I'm watching.
I remember being a kid and finding Jack Frost on tv and I thought it was the michael keaton one but after a few Christmasy murders i realized it was the scary one
i did the same but never realised they were 2 different movies until now.. all my life i've just been terrified of everyone who said they'd loved it as a kid
loving the “apparently I have bad taste in movies” revelation at the start, followed up later with the idea that the prequels and amazing spider-man movies are good
Scott your comedy and quality in these videos have sky rocketed. Loved every second of this video. Keep it up legend.
Happy that Rise of the Guardians is finally getting the hype it deserves
i was not expecting scott's problematic trait to be his opinion on stop motion animation but i will forgive it.. scott and i are both childhood fans of the micheal keaton jack frost film and we must stand together
Same i find that style of stop motion so cute and charming
I think most people find it off putting and ugly lol
You Scott Cramer... are a genius. Dope vid, Merry Christmas.
19:15 nice detail (the transition) and have a good Christmas ☃️
Rise of the Guardians was one of the only movies I watched when I was younger, along with Little and Big Monsters and Ratatouille. If you've watched the second one then you may or may not have thought it was a weird fever dream for years like I did.
When I heard “that EBOY” is was ready for a full read about how bad it was and I was ready to comment exactly why you’re wrong, if I had the confidence 😂
You’re honestly the only commentary youtuber that makes laugh still. Always love your ideas and how you articulate your jokes.
hey Scott, your hair looks great in this video. Merry Christmas my guy
I’ve heard that at the very least Guardians was a solid time
It was real good. But I was like 5
I like it too, I wish it had a sequel.
Guardians is sooooo good, my fav new age holiday movie
I really enjoyed Rise of the Guardians, as well. But I’m crying that he’s S-tier with the grinch 😂😂😂
So in the movie Edward Scissorhands, he ends up being the one to bring snow. Would this make him an incarnation of Jack Frost?
19:01 - great transition Scott, love the way the narration matches the transition from e-boy Jack Frost to you
I remember beating my first ever Pokemon game when I was 8 while the Micheal Keaton Jack frost was on. I associate that movie to my success in that game I always thought it was a great movie. Thank you for unlocking that memory for me!
What are you trying to say? Did you beat Pokemon while watching Jack Frost?
@@ironwraith852 holy moly did I ever slaughter that comment haha and yeah that's what I was trying to say.
@@Sputlo I'm sorry bro. I didn't mean to pokéfun at ya. I was just confused.
@@ironwraith852 no worries your all good
The guardians movie is literally my childhood.
Bravo! Amazing video
I loved jack frost from Rise of the Guardians so much as a kid - still holds up today too, and my guinea pig is named after him 😌
Rise of the Guardians was one of my favorite movies as a kid and I'm so glad to see it getting some recognition here for the Masterpiece of Cinema it is
If there's anything I'm qualified to be an expert in, it is the movie Rise of the Guardians. I have seen it over 100 times and I can't even tell you why. It's just my go-to movie when I want to watch something but can't be bother to pick something new. I unironically love it and it is the reason why Chris Pine has always been my top Chris.
oof you had me until that last part lmao
@@hell0mega that's so cool! Why did you say this
@@kalikoserpent WAIT FUCK I CONFUSED THE CHRISES UP SFHLHDSL CHRIS PINE IS FINE... don't comment on things when you're experiencing insomnia OOPS...
The 'but dad' thing made me remember how much i love that movie
The scene in unaccompanied minors where the kid loses his aquaman toy is the single saddest scene in film history
Rise of the Guardians is a gem, I dont care what you say! I'd be sour too if I died and didn't even realize it because im still roaming the earth.
Now that I'm not triggered anymore from the thumbnail; time to enjoy another Scott video!
I just know the ROTG fans are sitting patiently through this video and ready to go to war in this comment section. Y’all are passionate, never lose that
LMAO the whole reason I clicked was because he made it seem like it wasn't s good movie with the thumbnail
I was sizzling the entire time, ROTG is the reason I'm studying animation right now lol
This video made me laugh and cry. Ik it’s an old video but I officially subscribed off this one
Wow, great video! I subbed 😊
Whenever I hear the name Jack Frost, I literally always think of Rise Of The Guardians.
I grew up with rise of the guardians and it's truly one of my favorite childhood movies the story is so sad yet incredibly amazing and entertaining, I was really nervous because I thought you're not gonna like the movie and then I'll have to rewatch the movie because even though I trust you I don't trust my memory, but I did enjoy the video thanks for your service, I really respect you ❤
I’m glad me watching this in mid July made your decorating for Christmas all worth it 😊
Love that you love and appreciate both TASM and Rise of the Guardians. Both films have a special place in my heart!
My best friend growing up was family friends with William Joyce, the author and executive producer of rise of the guardians. Like, I swam in his pool. This is so surreal.
Michael Keaton's Jack Frost movie is a classic, fun for the whole family, and NOBODY can take my enjoyment of it away!
(I even use the "butt Dad" joke on occasion)
The intensity at the end there was perfect thank you
It’s really nice to see one of my favorite creators watch one of my favorite Christmas movie, and love it.
"This devilishly handsome heartthrob... Or this cartoon guy" extremely based of you
I loved Jack Frost with Micheal Keaton as a kid. I watched that movie so much to the point where I think I remember most of the lines from that film lol. I feel it still holds up today for the most part
I really liked this video good job!
I love everything about this video, but the top 3 moments are your unwavering support for the amazing Spider-Man movies ✊, the unabashed love for the 1998 Jack Frost (it was one of our family's favorites to watch growing up), and Scott going all in on the Jack Frost banger that is "Have a Little Faith".
