I believe another reason the Grinch hates Christmas is because he feels that everyone merely focuses on the presents and materialistic things. This is not the kind of Christmas he wants to be part of. He lost faith in Christmas and he hates the Whos for shunning him just because he's "different". It's no wonder he grew up bitter and angry. In the end, the Whos finally showed him that "Christmas still came" even with the lack of presents. This helped the Grinch to realize that Christmas is more than just presents after all.
"Dr. Seuss" wrote a whole bunch of children's books from the 50's to the 80's designed to help kids learn to read. They were written in the rhyming style you heard in the movie, with simple words (some completely made up) and wildly imaginative plots and drawings. "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" was made into a short TV cartoon in 1966 and played every year at Christmas time. Most Baby Boomers and Gen-X kids grew up with the books and the cartoon. You might want to check out the cartoon version to see the source material this movie was based on. Its only about 30 min long
I did watch the cartoon version. It's only on Patreon, so it's understandable that no one on YT knows. It made me appreciate this live-action adaptation even more 👍🏻
As a lifelong fan of the original animated TV special, I was skeptical of a live-action remake. But the cast, the costumes, the craziness of this movie naturally won me over. Great reaction to this fun classic holiday favorite! Happy Holidays to you and those you cherish, Henry! ❄🎊🎉✨❄
I watched the animated TV special (on Patreon), and it made me appreciate this live-action remake so much more. This adaptation is very well done 👍🏻 Happy Holidays and Happy New Year to you! 😊🎉
After watching this movie, I watched the 1966 cartoon. I feel that this live-action adaptation added some nice touches to the original. I didn't watch any others, so I can't say much about the other versions.
@@henryellow Yeah, usually whichever version of something you watched as a kid is the version you prefer. I grew up watching the 1966 cartoon. I'll admit that I'd probably feel different if I'd grown up watching this version instead of the original. But having said that, I just feel the original has more charm & I feel the story works better as a 30 minute cartoon without all the extra story found in this version. But that's just my opinion. I'm sure others will feel different.

This movie's okay but none of the later versions hold a candle to the original version from the 1960s.
