Let’s appreciate how in the beginning, when rowley says that the party is at the heffley household, nobody questions it, and everybody just knows where he lives.
Thats sort of a thing in highschool movie and tv shows ive noticed. Some random kid is like "PARTY AT MY HOUSE TONIGHT" or "PARTY AT AT JACKS HOUSE TONIGHT" and everyone just knew for some reason.
The fact that Greg gets into a relationship with Fregley and literally a minute later Greg's whole family dies makes this video a cinematic masterpiece
just found out that guy who played fregley (abe) died before this movie released. he played such a funny role and it’s sad to see him go. rest in peace abe 🕊️
Can someone explain to me how a bunch of high schoolers and young adults made such a beautiful, comedic, and crazy film thats miles better than a multi million dollar movie remake?
First of all, let me get something straight: This is a JOURNAL, not a diary. Yeah, I know what it says on the cover, but when my Mom went out to buy this thing I SPECIFICALLY told her not to buy one that said "diary' on it. This just proves Mom doesn't understand anything about kids my age.
Rest in peace to the guy who played Fregley. He was hilarious in his role and I can tell just by this video that he would’ve been a really cool person to know and hang out with. This whole parody movie was really well done with the animation, ridiculous plot, and acting, and I’m glad you guys could make it and dedicate it to him. Great work and again, rest in peace to a kid gone way too soon.
The person who played Rodrick is a really good actor, overall loved this film, it was pretty funny and definitely would’ve been a better replacement then Long Haul
Bro they all went from being the school freaks to freaky real fast 💀🤣😭 in all seriousness tho, this skit was 10x better than all the movies combined…you boys are the real ones 🫡
The party didn't let Greg die with his fam in peace; hence, the dramatic cinematic masterpiece that follows the release of anger through loved ones to make up for loss and grief. Ironic since it's all written and technically lived through Jeff Kinney's actor to personify his feelings/attitude toward the dying book series
The part when fregley said he was pregnant got me LMAO. But seriously, I think the comedy and realisticness of the actual wimpy kid movies is spot on. The animations of greg were amazing and felt official, seriously, never stop doing this!
First of all, let me get something straight: This is a JOURNAL, not a diary. Yeah, I know what it says on the cover, but when my Mom went out to buy this thing I SPECIFICALLY told her not to buy one that said "diary' on it. This just proves Mom doesn't understand anything about kids my age.
8:47 The gag of them looking around to make sure no one is watching while there are tons of people visible not even ten feet away from them is always much funnier to me than it probably should be
I'm not even half way through and it already feels like a perfect high school film working as a sequel to the original, ESPECIALLY in casting. on top of that, Greg is translated perfectly as the same ego-filled kid, but then put into high school, which is incredibly amusing.
Yes, I did continue it, and regardless of how ridiculous it gets, it still starts out exactly as I would expect from a studio-produced Wimpy Kid movie made to follow up the originals. All the right ingredients are set up strongly, and Rowley being cool and leaving Greg behind in the dust in terms of maturity feels right and expected. Even Fregley became mature, while Greg stayed his narcissistic, egotistical self with almost no maturity at all. Unlike those around him, he doesn't change. He's still the same kid writing in his journal because he's expecting to become something great and spectacular. He is specifically writing so he doesn't have to do interviews because of how high and mighty he thinks he is, and you can see that ego on full display throughout most of the parody. Absolute perfection
As a film student and big fan of the wimpy kid series myself, I have to say that this parody film is fucking fantastic! I just watched it for the 2nd time and noticed so many more details! Super impressed by the writing, producing, directing, filming, acting, editing, etc. This is def a 10/10 comedy imo! Deserves it's 35K+ views and will go down in youtube history as an absolute classic! Edit: This vid now has over 1M views... LET'S GOOOOOOOO!!!
This is one of the best fan films I’ve ever seen. I really hope traditional media starts going in this half-movie, half-UA-cam-video direction because this is the type of stuff I want to see more often!!
on my first watch i didnt notice that he had spots there as well, so on my second watch i went back to see what he was talking about but also RIGHT? shocker

This went from 0 to 100 real quick in terms of craziness. Anyway, this film was really good. The animations, acting, jokes or writing, and cinematography were top-notch.
Even tho the camera angles and shots are somewhat what I would expect from a college class or highschool I think the narrative, execution, and feeling of authenticity with ideas is really what drove this whole film
Pitch for the sequel: Sophomore Year So in this, it turns out manny faked his death so he can kill the rest of the heffleys, but Greg is the last standing, so it’s Greg and Rowley Vs Manny
I love it. This is about the dumbest thing I’ve seen on UA-cam but it was more well directed and written than 90% of what Hollywood has come out with in 2023.
Side note, but I like how it's just like in the books that Rowley is just deemed "more popular" just by not being afraid to be himself, while Greg tries to earn his popularity by putting others down...or by just trying too hard.
This is definitely one of the best Fan films I've ever seen. I cracked up multiple times and I couldn't have imagined how crazy it gets towards the end. When Fregley said that he is pregnant I laughed so hard that I had tears in my eyes. 😂 But literally this is so well played and directed. Must have been such a blast to film this.
@@levigallebaseball4272 Ah okay, then pardon me. Your comment sounded like you wanted to argue with me because I found it funny. I've already had a lot of those conversations. I was laughing because it just came out of nowhere. Like the video already had been crazy enough up until that point and then Fregley just randomly says: "Greg, I'm PREGNANT!" XD
The spikey ball, the puke on the windshield, the #notmyrodrick reference, I can tell this film was made by a true fan and was a real labour of love. The music was amazing and the fact it was written by rodrick is perfect, incredible job on this movie lads!
this got real weird halfway thru lol but i enjoyed it and it is inspiring to see you guys be passionate and do your thing, especially at such a young age. The casting was well done and I really enjoyed the performances of Greg, Rodrick, and and Rowley. RIP Abe so heartbreaking, I bet he would be proud. Keep doing your thing guys!
@@menkargocrazy That's what I'm wondering idk if its a joke or not Edit: from the looks of it and some Google searching, It does look like that the actor for Fregley (Abe) has passed away as of December 18th, 2021
I can really see Rowley moving through the stages of life, getting a job, buying a car, eventually starting a family while Greg is still sitting in his room waiting for his fame. Edit: I wrote this comment when I was only 5 minutes in oh my god Greg’s family is dead
The mom actress slayed. I’ll only refer to her as an actress because she slayed so hard it doesn’t even meet up to the expectations to all the other children playing dress up.
Rowley being so much cooler than Greg is such a genius idea, as we all should remember Greg had big plans for his future but they obviously would never work. Remember when Greg's class took a career test? Well Greg got the job of "clerk" as his result. This seals the deal that Greg definitely will never have a big rich future. So much detail! This definitely earned you a subscriber.
A list of shots and editing that I greatly enjoyed: 2:06 really cosy shot 7:32 great composition to have Greg just off centre, with the natural divide of the door frame 10:00 this scene is amazing and the shot being obscured by the shadows is a touch of class 14:25 pulling the notebook out from under the bed is great, blowing the dust off adds instant character and the spotlight is a great touch. A hand pulling the book away is also a great use of motion in the scene 14:48/ 15:05 Greg’s body being in frame but his head remaining out, mirroring Roderick, shows how he is becoming like his older brother, unrecognisable to Rowley 14:58 I just really like the lighting 15:41 just amazing. You didn’t have to include this but you did 19:17 in complete awe. This is gorgeous. Roderick’s hair, his grin, the way the smoke envelopes his face. Breathtaking 19:30 just think it’s really nice lighting again 20:57 wide shot establishes that Roderick is not there… 21:00 and here he is. Amazing. Brings so much life to this undead icon
the scene of him smoking + the lighting and music was perfect and so aesthetically pleasing. Also when he cut the brakes that extra scene to rly show what he was doing was so cool
Rodrick Casting 10/10, Comedy 10/10, Writing 10/10, literally perfection.

Even tho the camera angles and shots are somewhat what I would expect from a college class or highschool I think the narrative, execution, and feeling of authenticity with ideas is really what drove this whole film
19:14 this shot tho 🥶
the shots feel like the movies
@@thecapitalgfr😫
@@thecapitalgOng that was hot
Love the mix of comedy and drama. Amazingly well done! 100x better than the real movies

Hi Twi!
That’s just facts
Only the 4th one
The fourth Diary of a wimpy kid movie we all wanted
Yeah, let’s pretend the long haul doesn’t exist, no seriously let’s actually forget the shit show (the long haul) existed
ItzThomas
Let’s also forget about that Disney plus movie that came out last year
@@lexboogie6969 we don't count that one either
@@shadowthefurryscientist first step of forgetting something is not mentioning it
there are no other movies in Ba Sing Se
What I just watched was absolutely crazy and a little out of pocket yet still such a masterpiece. May Fregly rest in piece😥
So happy this is back up fellas. Gonna watch it AGAIN. Incredible job!
Monke
I watched it 100 times today but I am going to take a nap like right now
watcha doing here bud?
Zach only has 5 replies?
Hello Zach🤣🤣
Pitch for the sequel: Sophomore Year
So in this, it turns out manny faked his death so he can kill the rest of the heffleys, but Greg is the last standing, so it’s Greg and Rowley Vs Manny
Literally stole our whole idea right there (don’t be expecting it any time soon though)
@@TheFruitJarI have idea! For the next one everyone thinks Roderick is still alive Greg gets revenge on Roderick for killing fregley
@@TheFruitJar This film deserves a sequel where Rodrick is the protagonist. Have the Rodrick from this film in the sequel, please.
and fregly!
@@babyjg3759the actor for fregley died unfortunately
this went from actual movie potential to a regular show episode....and i love it.
i subbed to j just to see u get popular, dont disappoint me now...
me?
@@somerandumguy yea, the way ur channel looks makes it seem like u actually wanna make yt content
i do lol! i’m wanting to make some gaming content and got some stuff for it too
@@somerandumguy yessir😤
10:24 where he was picking everything up and literally nothing actually made it into the bag was so funny
I love it. This is about the dumbest thing I’ve seen on UA-cam but it was more well directed and written than 90% of what Hollywood has come out with in 2023.
The animation segments look so damn clean!!!!!!! props to the animators!!
The director actually animated the sequences
@@thecapitalg Did they really? Stellar job
Man, I actually knew Abe, he used to give me guitar lessons, had no idea he passed. He always seemed like such a good dude.
I like how the one kid was struggling with to open his locker. The struggle is real
Side note, but I like how it's just like in the books that Rowley is just deemed "more popular" just by not being afraid to be himself, while Greg tries to earn his popularity by putting others down...or by just trying too hard.
This is definitely one of the best Fan films I've ever seen. I cracked up multiple times and I couldn't have imagined how crazy it gets towards the end. When Fregley said that he is pregnant I laughed so hard that I had tears in my eyes. 😂 But literally this is so well played and directed. Must have been such a blast to film this.
You laughed cuz it's not possible right?
@@levigallebaseball4272 I laughed cuz it was FUNNY. That's my kind of humor. I don't see a problem with that.
@@Joshua0810 I dont see a problem either
I was simply clarifying what you were laughing at
@@levigallebaseball4272 Ah okay, then pardon me. Your comment sounded like you wanted to argue with me because I found it funny. I've already had a lot of those conversations.
I was laughing because it just came out of nowhere. Like the video already had been crazy enough up until that point and then Fregley just randomly says: "Greg, I'm PREGNANT!" XD
@@Joshua0810 yeah you good haha
The spikey ball, the puke on the windshield, the #notmyrodrick reference, I can tell this film was made by a true fan and was a real labour of love. The music was amazing and the fact it was written by rodrick is perfect, incredible job on this movie lads!
I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THIS.....BUT OMG FREGLEY X GREG IS JUST PERFECTIONNNN
this got real weird halfway thru lol but i enjoyed it and it is inspiring to see you guys be passionate and do your thing, especially at such a young age. The casting was well done and I really enjoyed the performances of Greg, Rodrick, and and Rowley. RIP Abe so heartbreaking, I bet he would be proud. Keep doing your thing guys!
I agree, it did get weird, but it was great nonetheless.
Who's Abe and what happened?
@@menkargocrazy That's what I'm wondering idk if its a joke or not
Edit: from the looks of it and some Google searching, It does look like that the actor for Fregley (Abe) has passed away as of December 18th, 2021
@@someguyontheinternet2544
That's very unfortunate, oh god that's so sad
@@bobtheball5384 I know. heard it was from a brain aneurysm. Terrible way to go.
I can really see Rowley moving through the stages of life, getting a job, buying a car, eventually starting a family while Greg is still sitting in his room waiting for his fame.
Edit: I wrote this comment when I was only 5 minutes in oh my god Greg’s family is dead
Same
THE GUY WHO PLAYED RODRICK THO😍

FR THO
Roddick ... You mean Greg ???
THAT'S SO REAL ✋😭
Greg: gets with Fregley
Holly Hills: *am i a joke to u?*
The mom actress slayed. I’ll only refer to her as an actress because she slayed so hard it doesn’t even meet up to the expectations to all the other children playing dress up.
bro rodrick, greg, and fregely are literally the finest men I have ever seen.
RIGHT LIKE THE CAST IS SO PERFECTTT
I guess you missed rowley & mrs heffley
I WAS LOOKING FOR THIS LIKE RODRICK where did they get this guy
I ain't gay but rodrick looks so fine
@@moonie2663 his names eli hayden, he also makes music under the name "e7i" :)
This is the best thing I've seen all year. The script was amazing. Even the "That was not my Rodrick" was gold.
no
I LOVE HOW RODRICK CAME BACK FROM THE DEAD LOL😭😭😭
Rowley being so much cooler than Greg is such a genius idea, as we all should remember Greg had big plans for his future but they obviously would never work. Remember when Greg's class took a career test? Well Greg got the job of "clerk" as his result. This seals the deal that Greg definitely will never have a big rich future. So much detail! This definitely earned you a subscriber.
It did happen in the first book too
that one idea does not make up for how much of a piece of shit the rest of this thing is
seeing Kermit yell ITS THE COPS then running extatically gotta be the most funniest shit i've ever seen
The fregnancy didn't even surprise me tbh
HELP-
WE GOT GREGNANCY NOW FREGNANCY???
Fregnancy 💀
I’m not finished watching yet… THE WHAT
@@LilMewwOfficial
HELLO
FUNNY SEEING YOU HERE
@@lillyplaysguitar IM SORRY HUH??? THIS IS THE LAST PLACE I EXPECTED TO FIND YOU 😭😭😭
"Who knows what's in store for me next?" is a WILD thing to say after everything that just happened
Gregly is easily the best ship so glad he got him gregnant
what the fuck
GREGNANT😭

GREGNANT?!
i am now crying at 2 in the morning because fregley and greg would have been great dads
💀
@@MSKA-1 💀
yeah but im crying because fregley died irl
@@FS9VRfr???
@@autumncaro5467 yeah, it's really sad he passed away a few months before the film was released.
I couldn't stop laughing after I got hit with the "Not my Rodrick" line near the end 💀
Rowley and Fregley being charming dudes is a very great boldness
honestly, it was nice to see rodrick and greg getting along.
yea and then proceeding to murder rowleys parents💀
i rlly hope this guy makes an actual movie, this was so entertaining😭
for real
A list of shots and editing that I greatly enjoyed:
2:06 really cosy shot
7:32 great composition to have Greg just off centre, with the natural divide of the door frame
10:00 this scene is amazing and the shot being obscured by the shadows is a touch of class
14:25 pulling the notebook out from under the bed is great, blowing the dust off adds instant character and the spotlight is a great touch. A hand pulling the book away is also a great use of motion in the scene
14:48/ 15:05 Greg’s body being in frame but his head remaining out, mirroring Roderick, shows how he is becoming like his older brother, unrecognisable to Rowley
14:58 I just really like the lighting
15:41 just amazing. You didn’t have to include this but you did
19:17 in complete awe. This is gorgeous. Roderick’s hair, his grin, the way the smoke envelopes his face. Breathtaking
19:30 just think it’s really nice lighting again
20:57 wide shot establishes that Roderick is not there…
21:00 and here he is. Amazing. Brings so much life to this undead icon
This is amazing.
Bro honestly this review made me look back at those scenes and see their actual purpose. It’s actually impressive directing.
the scene of him smoking + the lighting and music was perfect and so aesthetically pleasing. Also when he cut the brakes that extra scene to rly show what he was doing was so cool
@Eddie is the best🎸🤘 and?
RODRICKS EYELINER IS ON POINT ✨
The fact that all the characters are actually believable is what blows my mind about this. A+ Job on this.
