The actors shouldn't be receiving hate for being in the movie but I think it's obvious that they could NEVER replace the original cast, they are just too iconic. Especially Rodrick man he was my inspiration growing up- 😭✊❤️
The actor for Roderick, Charlie Wright has a UA-cam channel (it’s just his name). He’s pretty chill and he made a video about this movie. It’s messed up that so many people lashed out at him just because he was given this role.
Despite the recasting, one of the biggest problem this movie had is to the fact that they changed EVERYTHING from the book. They still included characters like the pig and the beardos, but they changed their story. The only scene I remember from the book is when Rodrick thought his brains were pumped out. There was no diaper hands, conventions, trip to the meemaw or anything
sad fact the guy who played rodrick got bullied so bad he literally couldn’t post without ppl attacking him as if it’s his fault the team did a poor job with his hairstyle & his wardrobe
@@vloggingwithsam4811 I actually find the casting to be fine. Are they as good as the OGs? No. However, it’s like Seb said. You get used to them, and even the new Rodrick is kind of funny
@@oklol7799 Womp womp, imagine getting mad cus u don’t understand a comment, dumb as in iq(just like u) not stupid, in the books Rodrick is a scam artist and pulls of pranks he not dumb😂
One good thing I would say this movie did is the work call scene-the events that happened in the movie are done EXACTLY in the same order, same events as described in the book…
If you're wondering why Rodrick doesn't resemble the other Heffleys is cus his actor, Charlie Wright, is half-Asian but they cast him with in a very white suburban family
I actually really enjoyed this movie, ofc the original cast hits different but this was a pretty funny movie and the actor for Rodrick got so much unnecessary hate people going to the extremes of threatening him just for this movie.
the reason why they recasted was because the original cast had grown up too much. like greg's actor looked like he was in highschool when he was supposed to look middle school. so yeah they had to recast for younger actors.
IMO, This movie basically killed the franchise. They recasted the entire cast, none of the jokes were funny, and the whole “Road Trip” plot has been done to death. If anything, this was the Batman & Robin of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid franchise. And both movies had Alicia Silverstone.
You saying the bit about the road trip is ironic since it's (of course) the plot of the book this movie is based on. Not only that, but this isn't the only book the family goes on holiday
I've always had the thought that, if a movie gets a recast, that "treating it like the first movie" can help with making a movie, at least, bearable. This (In My Opinion) is no exception. I somehow didn't hate this movie
I don't like how much he made me like this movie .🤣 I remember not laughing once the first time, but seeing seb bust out laughing changed my mood to much 😭.
I had this exact same experience yesterday. I was dreading watching this movie mainly due to there being a different cast, but when I actually watched it, I realised that it actually isn't that bad. And then I wanted to see if you watched it and I was lucky enough to see it recently have came out. Glad you think this movie is actually decent. I am 100% on your side.
This is so weird I was literally rewatching your diary of a wimpy kid videos yesterday, much love seb (ps I quite enjoyed this back when it came out 🤣)
they recast cause the creators wanted to continue doing movies of all the books but the main cast got older. like the whole cast right now are in their late 20s ... but I dont think anyone would care really. they could even poke fun at the kids being 13 but looking 30
"We'll give the benefit of the doubt, guys." Immediately jumps to a shot of a crying baby covered in a yucky substance... sure... let's give this film the benefit of the doubt lol
Your videos are the best and I always look forward to watching them! Would absolutely love to see you watch the original Clue (a little scary, nothing gruesome though) or the Incredibles 2. Thanks for all the laughs :)
They coulda got someone who was a little bit more older to play Greg and Rowley but instead they made them look younger considering they’re now in 8th grade on summer break I think. Also for Rodrick the guy who plays him has a UA-cam channel and he’s actually very funny and chill but the thing is he is not meant to play Rodrick, they legit coulda got anyone else to play as him but didn’t lol
I liked this movie honestly. Wasn’t as good as the first three and the original cast was sorely missed, but it’s fun, that’s all I wanted out of the movie
Seb, i love you, but disabled wifi is awful. Mine is crappy right now, and I've got loads of assignments from college, which i literally need internet for or I get a fail😭🙏

fans are hating on the movie itself. id say they shouldve done it earlier while the old cast were still young because
because if they had done it sooner we would still have at least one more movie that the old cast is in it and it would get less hate
The book didn't come out earlier on when they were younger. I'm pretty sure
I’m sure they’re good ppl irl and good actors but not for this movie.... they can’t replace the og’s
The problem is not the actors it's 1 the writing,2 the fact that it's an obvious cash grab

Saw a couple of his videos way back, he indeed seems really chill, I feel bad for what happened to him
Chill dude but horrible actor
Honestly, his performance as Rodrick was kinda funny
It's the hair, i swear its just the hair.
@@Xkylecormed in the Movie Diary, it said they decided to keep it like that bc it looked like a rock stars hair
You might be the only person ever to enjoy this movie, but i respect you for it.
You really copied your own comment from the community post, huh?😂
I hear a lot of people liking lots of things about this movie, including me...its just the damn cast 😭
I enjoy this movie, but can understand the dislikes especially with the cast.
Icl watched this on a plane and found it hilarious simply because how daft it was 😂
not the only one tho i mean for laughs not the cast
I feel so bad for these actors in this movie they could’ve done so much better in any other movie
I've not seen it, but as far as I can tell the majority (if not entirety) of the hate is because of the actors
@@thepandorica1660 the director decides how the actors play their characters so it's not really up to them to decide how the characters come across
rename the movie and we chillin
@@joshuaha9524 except for the fact that they have the same name as the original cast
Seb you are right the new Rodrick looks like a Teenage Joker 🃏 😂😂
21:00 fun fact: That's Jeff Kinney, the author of the Wimpy Kid series. He's put himself in every live-action Wimpy Kid movie.
Wait really?
“so bad that it’s good” is the definition of this movie
it isn't even so bad it's good- it's just bad
terrifier to doawk is crazy
Ah yes my favourite movie doawk 😂
Ya😂
Doawk tuah!
@@redandrit2105 lol that’s what I was thinking
@@Tom1WRit’s short for diary of a wimpy kid
Watching the OG Rodrick react to this movie is probably funnier than the entire movie.
Despite the recasting, one of the biggest problem this movie had is to the fact that they changed EVERYTHING from the book. They still included characters like the pig and the beardos, but they changed their story. The only scene I remember from the book is when Rodrick thought his brains were pumped out.

7:34 Sebs face had me dying
AYO
sad fact the guy who played rodrick got bullied so bad he literally couldn’t post without ppl attacking him as if it’s his fault the team did a poor job with his hairstyle & his wardrobe
I WANT THE OLD ACTORS BACK RIGHT NOW 😢
“Rodrick from temu” got me weak 😂😭😭
FINALLY! Someone else enjoyed this movie too! I say this as a fan of the original movies and the book series
There’s a reason no one else enjoys this movie
@@vloggingwithsam4811 I actually find the casting to be fine. Are they as good as the OGs? No. However, it’s like Seb said. You get used to them, and even the new Rodrick is kind of funny
@@oklol7799so unfunny and dumb he’s funny
@@Knightedxx womp womp. Rodrick is really dumb in the books, so he’s supposed to act stupid in the movie
@@oklol7799 Womp womp, imagine getting mad cus u don’t understand a comment, dumb as in iq(just like u) not stupid, in the books Rodrick is a scam artist and pulls of pranks he not dumb😂
I like the author cameo at 21:00
The actor for Rodrick actually has a UA-cam channel he’s pretty chill
It could never be better then the og😊
Seb, the reason why Rodrick did the things with the safe and the confession game is because it is actually stuff that happens in the book
It was way funnier in the book, though. The delivery of the jokes by Roderick's actor was terrible.
The dad recast is Tom Everett Scott, who actually worked with Steve Zahn, the original dad, in a movie called That Thing You Do!
This is a prime example of how some movie franchises should be left untouched because this film ruined the previous three
0:41 Look how they massacred my boy.
One good thing I would say this movie did is the work call scene-the events that happened in the movie are done EXACTLY in the same order, same events as described in the book…
Old Rodrick:🧑🦱
New Rodrick:👩🏻
Not funny🤓
26:54 no Seb, he's talking about '' Wrong turn ''
22:45 I agree
I agree with you
2:41 that's funny because the actor puts on clown makeup sometimes in his videos on his UA-cam channel
If you're wondering why Rodrick doesn't resemble the other Heffleys is cus his actor, Charlie Wright, is half-Asian but they cast him with in a very white suburban family
I actually really enjoyed this movie, ofc the original cast hits different but this was a pretty funny movie and the actor for Rodrick got so much unnecessary hate people going to the extremes of threatening him just for this movie.
rodrick : whats happening
me n seb dying of laughter
venom:the last dance is out now I hope sebscreen reacts to it
Transformers One is now on streaming so you can react to it.
Ik it's so good
20:35 As soon as you said rodrick drippy, the first thing that came to my mind was logan sayin I like my cheese drippy bruh😂😂😂😂
He was clearly referencing that, that’s literally what he was thinking of lmfao
Another halloween movie I don’t see people talk about is Fun Sized. Loved it as a kid and it has Little Gibby from iCarly.
Lots of the cast have grown to have deeper voices, especially Greg and Rowley
I think Seb would really like Alexander and the Terrible Horrible No Good Very Bad Day
i actually really liked this one despite it being a whole different cast and despite all the reviews on it and im glad you enjoyed it!!
woahhh i like rewatched all your diary of wimpy kid series yesterday and now i have a new one yayaya!!
This is my favourite wimpy kid movie and remember everyone were all allowed to like a movie
10:41
Underrated joke xD
Didnt expect long haul
2:33 some might even say a Loded Diper
I consider this to be an alternate universe or a what if movie.
the reason why they recasted was because the original cast had grown up too much.
like greg's actor looked like he was in highschool when he was supposed to look middle school.
so yeah they had to recast for younger actors.
this is so evil 2:41 6:27 10:08 😂
More consistent uploads I love you seb
I accept Diary Of A Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul apart of the Diary universe...
Yeah let's accept it as an alternate universe story
10:19 bro just turned into donald trump

I mean look at the books, they go on road trips more than once I think
His scream and face😂😂 7:35
18:14 this is the only scene that I laughed at throughout this video 😂

i feel like the actor for Greg is pretty good ngl
If mee-maw looks that good at 90, someone get me this woman’s skin care routine!
21:56 he 100% sounds like the joker laugh. 😂

22:52 seb I’m also from Portugal as well some Portuguese girls/woman are like that ☺️😂 anyways love ur vids mate keep it up 👍🏼
Muzzy in my Middle School Italian class was the best.
"We'll give the benefit of the doubt, guys."
Immediately jumps to a shot of a crying baby covered in a yucky substance... sure... let's give this film the benefit of the doubt lol
13:18 why greg dad kinda mogging 💀
I loved this movie. You warm up to the new cast. And you have to view it as something new and not a continuation of the original series.
This movie is a case where it’s so bad it’s good haha, I remember seeing this in premiere night at 7pm in an empty theater lmao
8:50 nah this guy isnt even trying lmao he sounds like this is his side family and hes more invested in the main
its almost like a dj khaled line bro
Seb NEEDS to react to Killer Bean Forever.
Enough said.
I’m sure the film and actors weren’t THAT BAD, but many people grew up with the original 3 films. Those first 3 films were nostalgic for many
Your videos are the best and I always look forward to watching them!
Would absolutely love to see you watch the original Clue (a little scary, nothing gruesome though) or the Incredibles 2. Thanks for all the laughs :)
I agree that Rodrick wasn't this dumb. But that is how the portrayed him in that book
This Rodrick looks like the one boy Who from Horton Hears A Who 😂😂
Charlie Write plays Rodrick got so much hate and literal death threats he’s got a youtube channel
Finally someone who didn’t actually mind it either! It’s not at all in the originals league, but I liked it 😂
They coulda got someone who was a little bit more older to play Greg and Rowley but instead they made them look younger considering they’re now in 8th grade on summer break I think. Also for Rodrick the guy who plays him has a UA-cam channel and he’s actually very funny and chill but the thing is he is not meant to play Rodrick, they legit coulda got anyone else to play as him but didn’t lol
You’d love Happy Feet! The songs, the story, you’ll love it!! I also love watching your content ❤😸
This was awesome ngl keep it up love ur reactions this was a 8.5 wasn't that bad ngl tbh :D.
22:10 im obsessed so can i come watch a movie with you 😂😂
I liked this movie honestly. Wasn’t as good as the first three and the original cast was sorely missed, but it’s fun, that’s all I wanted out of the movie
i love how seb changes his opinon on the movie mid video lol
I don’t know whether you’ve already seen it but I think you would really enjoy Girls Trip
I felt like I was the only one who actually likes this movie and I’m glad someone else enjoyed it too😂😂😂
7:36 this part had me dying
The way he looks 7:39 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
Next movie reaction has to be The Sixth Sense (no pressure of course love the vids!!)
Love this man 😍💜
You might be the only person who liked this movie. But i respect you for it. It’s bad, but it’s not boring. I’ll give it that.
I still have the discs of muzzy
I enjoyed this movie a lot when I was younger, and while it does take a while to get used to the actors it's a nice film to just have fun with
They used different actors because the others looked way to old Greg looks like a high schooler and more
No shit dude, Im not dumb. And when did i say that i didnt know why they changed the actors. I mean come on
0:50 MeatCanyon version of OG Rowley 💀💀
I watched Muzzy when I was in primary school and I just got so many flashbacks😁
It's time, Seb
Time to watch What We Do in the Shadows.
15:35 You can't say spaz in the UK but the word spaz has a different meaning in the US.
Is the mom the girl from Clueless? That's wild!
This movie would be amazing if only it had a differenct Cast and Way better Actors!!!
Bro Muzzy! You gave me mad flashbacks
2:41 😂 the Joker looks better then him
Seb, i love you, but disabled wifi is awful. Mine is crappy right now, and I've got loads of assignments from college, which i literally need internet for or I get a fail😭🙏
Boyyyyyyyy!!!!!! You soooo good looking mannnnnn.
Keep doing more videos! It’s amazing!
All love from UAE!!!❤❤❤❤❤
I love all the diary of a wimpy kid books 📖 and movies 😅 0:36
Whenever Manny starts speaking Spanish, he doesn’t even say the right things, bro

Seb is so hilarious 🤣
