That could make a good rivalry between Jack and Pitch, too. Jack encourages kids to take risks by having fun whereas Pitch hates that. Honestly this makes me think that Pitch's pre-guardian self might've been an overprotective parent or something of the sort. They discouraged others from taking risks, others got hurt or died due to ignoring them because they weren't afraid, Pitch dies too as a result, Moon goes "naw that ain't fair and he had a point here wake the hell up Guardian you've got kids to terrify".

A parent or grandparent runs outside and starts scolding the kids for 'trying to get yourselves killed?!' and 'nearly gave me a heart attack'. The scolding continues as we see that they left the front door open and there's a table in the front hall/room with a tired Pitch shaking his head in a 'Why do I try?' sort of way as he slips into the shadows, the scolding stops only a few seconds after Pitch leaves.

Fear as a form of inducing safety. What the heck, that idea is SO COOL. I always loved Pitch as the antagonist, because his goal was effectively the same as Jack's, but I always wondered how it would even work cause, you know, he is the boogeyman, fear, yadda yadda. But if he is SAFETY, meant to teach and give people instincts...Holy shit. it's brilliant. I adore this rewrite so much. And that freaking third act with Pitch saving the kids cause he is safety and the kids staying with him....my heart

I love your take on Pitch. Fear is necessary, and honestly I think him adopting Halloween would make sense. I think this version lacks the "finding your core" character arc Jack goes through, but it could be easily included. It's seen as a counter to Pitch's fear in the movie, so focusing on Pitch and Jack's dynamic would naturally bring up the balance between Fun and Fear, like Sadness helping Riley feel again and then turning to being forward Joy.

@@lexi1031 my thought would be Pitch adopting the holiday, maybe not as his own in its entirety, but as his "day of play" if you will. Fear is used to protect and keep kids safe, but one night a year he gets to use it to bring joy, maybe even strengthen his believer count. The holiday would still belong to the Spirit of Halloween, but Pitch would simply add to the festivities where he can. Much like Jack helping out North by making it snow on Christmas.

I had an idea for Pitch's backstory. He was a very strict father due to his protectiveness he had of his kids and his wife. This led to his relationship with his two kids getting strained, but he still tried to be gentle with them when disciplining them because he didn't want to scare them. Their conflict led to the kids rebelling by playing with fire in the house late at night when their parents were asleep. They accidentally start a fire which spreads quickly in their most likely wooden house for the time(???). Everyone ends up dying, Pitch last. And when he became a guardian, he made sure he had learned his lesson.

I feel jack's hoodie sorta shows how he's more in tune with the world, like how he'd change his tops to suit the time but is trousers basically stay the same because you know trousers rarely really change anyways. I'd just love to know how he got the hoodie, would have been fun to see like the wind blow away some teens blue hoodie and Jake just being like "Yonk!" And grabbing it for himself.

I think just making Pitch more like his book counterpart would’ve made the movie much better. Corrupted father turns monster and maybe they try to save him and restore him. And maybe play into the boogeyman role where he eats kids when they get to the point they actually believe in him, see and feel him, and can be eaten by him. I think he was more of a lovecraftian monster too so it still fits and they can have a part where he can’t bring himself to hurt his daughter but everywhere he goes a part of his mind feels guilty for disturbing her because she’s literally Mother Nature, she’s everywhere.

Also I enjoyed this rewrite. I like the fact that there was more to Pitch that just " I'm evil because I'm evil" and that you instead gave him a reason to be a good antagonist, and that he was committed to his goals as an antagonist while still caring for the safety of children sence he is still a guardian. Also the Sandmans spaceship idea is great, and also a great way to refer to the books.

This is literally the best thing I have heard for rise of the guardians, I love how Pitch isn’t just a scary baddie, and he ends up saving the kids at the end. 👏 LISTEN 👏 TO ME 👏 PEOPLE 👏 If someone drops everything to save a few kids, that is PEAK best boy material. I would give pitch a thousand hugs if he was like this 🥰

Not gonna lie, I love this rewrite and designs. They're much more interesting and the story is something I'd go along with more than the original even if I love it too. I like the idea of Pitch here actually serving an importance and having a reason for existing in the first place unlike the movie counterpart where it's just, "Oogie Boogie- Let me scare again please, it makes me happy.. Where did I come from? I don't know." and the idea of a Pitch being a Guardian just warms my heart up. He's like a father figure and I love it.

If I were to remake it myself if I got a chance to I feel like Id make Jack not join the Guardians at all and be more stand alone possibly (even though I do like them joining up and all) and maybe even play villian for a lil', maybe like to defy the man on the moon in a way idk, anyway this isn't a critique as I think your rewrite wrapped up the story pretty well and the designs were pretty cool, I just wanted to share some o my thoughts.

That is a good idea! Having Jack stand alone does make sense too, though I do love the found family trope. Your ideas are awesome! 🧡 and Ty!

My characters actually have a saying. "The dark may seem scary at first, but even the dark has kindness and it's own fears". The ying yang represents that you can't have one thing without the other. You can't be good without being bad and you can't be bad without being a bit good.

I am now accepting this as the new canon as everyone should. Thank you for blessing us.

The idea of Pitch being a guardian of children via caution/fear is one of my favorites because in a way it also sends the message that too much of one thing can be bad, but you still need that thing in moderation. Too much wonder, too much fun, can be just as bad as too much fear. I love your redesigns as well, though for a second I really thought that Pitch was being given long hair and I was there for it. Still liked his design though, and the explanation that showed itself later with how he changes in the end. This was beautiful, and as much as some would complain about how redesigning a work defeats its purpose or be seen in a negative light, you show that you have an appreciation for the original work and that this really was just a way to express your care for it. As much as Rise of the Guardians was a great animated movie to watch, there was just something about the ending that always troubled me. It wasn't until I was reading a fanfic from another fandom that did an au that it brought to mind how fear is a necessity in life, in proving that something may cause harm or be dangerous. But this was a wonderful adaption of something I truly love. Thank you!

This is super interesting! The reason Sandy has sand is because he was a star, and that sand is the remainder of his star after he was shot out of the sky. Pitch was possessed by monsters called Fearlings who lured him in by copying his daughter’s voice, which I’m sad this isn’t mentioned in the movie because it shows that Pitch has a kinder side. (His daughter becomes Mother Nature too so that’s fun.) I do love your idea of Pitch being the guardian of Safety because you’re right, fear isn’t bad, it’s necessary. The fact that this concept isn’t used in the movie is quite sad. Bunny is an alien called a Pooka that is actually a shapeshifting warrior tribe. Bunny is the only one left, and this is why Bunny could talk. That was the only reason he could, or he would have been a normal bunny. They remove such beautiful characters as well. Katherine and Nightlight and Ombric-Father Time-and Mother Nature-originally Emily Jane, eventually Seraphina. (Also MiM isn’t exactly benevolent.) But yes, your idea is BEAUTIFUL! How have I not seen your channel before? It’s gorgeous.

Pitch is supposed represent bravery to kids Pitch brings fear to kids (or adults), but they can forget about him by feeling brave, like at the end of the movie Maybe that's why he was chosen Maybe in his youth he scared people for fun, by telling them scary stories or bullying them, but the people would feel the need to stand up for themselves and not be afraid The movie movie never specified The man in the moon only picked good people to be chosen Pitch is supposed to bring people stand up for themselves to stop being scared, to feel stronger about themselves As well as survival for them, to have them second guess when in danger so they don't do anything brash, like fear from inside out So I like how you portray him, it's accurate

A cool idea for a sequel movie with your rewrite would be a Cupid/Valentines day spirit for love. Over the sequel it would be the current guardians figuring out with the Valentine’s Day spirit that love isn’t just romantic and it can be platonic, for animals, for other things such as objects, shows, music. It would be a way to show people how to love too. Like loving people you find strange *COUGH* LGBTQIA+, DISABLED PEOPLE, NEURODIVERGENT PEOPLE, POC *COUGH* and how to accept and love everyone even though it’s only for a day and how Valentine’s Day can affect the rest of the year and can increase love for family, partners, teachers, friends and more. The main conflict would be the current guardians not understanding how love should be one of the guardians and how it can already exist with them. A secondary conflict could be the guardians seeing them in a darker light if they saw a couple fighting like 1-4 days -ish after Valentines put them together (They’re like Cupid in a way). She would be cast out similarly to Pitch and Pitch would be one of the main characters to resolve the conflict with them. They could be different minorities to show how to love them and other people for who they are instead of what they are like they could be a person of color, neurodivergent possibly or even disabled in a way. They could have little dove like helpers similar to Tooth’s humming birds to help make love letters, chocolates and even have a giant rose and flower garden in their guardian lair place.

I've always felt that Pitch was a necessary force. We need fear to survive. Like you said if he had been around to give fear then maybe jack and his sister would never have ended up on that thin ice. We even see that the main group of kids do unsafe things like climb on the roof looking for eggs and playing in the street. While the gaurdians definitely are mostly about protecting children, Pitch has a role that protects everyone ( If done properly). Not to forget that the books version of Pitch is actually a soldier who got taken over by fearlings. They could have done a story of saving him from them, or him overcoming them and using them for good. I always wished the ending had been the gaurdians and Pitch learning how to work together to better protect everyone.

I like how you acknowledge that fear is an important part of our lives and changed Pitch to a genuine guardian who fell from grace with good reason. As much as fear and nightmares terrify us and we may wish to not face them, they are good for us. They help to protect us by recognizing danger or even understanding when we are emotionally or mentally stressed. I could honestly go on a whole psychological philosophy about this, but I think you guys get the point. I myself have been playing with the idea of a boogeyman protagonist in my own fantasy series. While they do still have nightmare powers, I also thought it be nice to give them good dream powers, too. Basically a combo a Pitch and Sandy. I really like the idea as it shows both the good and bad of dreams and how important they are.

I always liked the idea of pitch or a boogeyman or whatever being an entity that scares people so they can learn to deal with and overcome fear. Like it would have been really cool if that part in the movie where the kids stand up to him if he'd been like "oh hey cool. No, seriously good on you kids GG." lol Also the point that spooky stuff is fun. Halloween is fun in principal because it's kind of scary... well if you do it right anyway. Seeing your neighborhood at night, going places you don't usually go. It's dark,and that makes everything feel bigger than it really is. I think it's also worth mentioning that whimsical stuff is more fun if you add just a pinch of fear. That extra touch of uncertainty takes it just a little farther from the waking world. Also I really like your rewrite and the way you took it, antagonists being evil for the sake of it can be fun but it didn't feel like like fit the original movie. Tl:dr scary stuff is fun and I like your rewrite and narration. 10/10 really good work!

In love with this concept and your art lmao I also really love little Victorian lad Jack, and just the idea of him using phrases or speech patterns from that era when particularly upset is kinda funny me Fantastic video tho :D

I feel like the one thing that I would pick at is Jack being the guardian of fun - I feel more like he’d be the guardian of bravery, since during the moment where he died, he tried to make his sister be brave by using a game. Also, as in the movie, when people are under the effect of his magic they tend to take a lot more risks and are a lot bolder than usual (like the sleigh scene in the movie). But, I still really love the idea of Fun! This is an amazing video and I absolutely adore your story boarding and character designs

Honestly, guardians was filled with both good character design but also Daddy energy. I don't know a single friend who didn't have a vicious attraction to one of the guys

15:47 I saw this frame and I lowkey want Jack and Pitch to have a sort of father-son dynamic. Just fun reckless and slightly selfish child/teen and his over-protective slightly grumpy and morally questionable yet well-meaning dad. It'd fit the parallel of fun and taking risks vs safety and fear like rebellious child vs helicopter parent. Especially if Pitch shows his more caring side when showing Jack his memories, creating a sort of parent-shows-they-still-care-for-the-child-even-when-they-have-opposing-views vibe. It'd bring them closer than with the other guardians as Pitch is sympathising with Jack rather than kinda telling him to suck it up and protect the kids like the other guardians and additionally, it could pack more of an emotional punch during the fight in act 3 where Pitch tells Jack they could've been on the same side. (I also want to imagine North to be like the Jolly and tough, gives the children beer kinda uncle that'd be fun)

Tbh I was skeptical at first and whilst I do think there might be some pacing issues (especially with all of the scenes which I expect would be montages of the guardians just working like the tooth collecting and xmas prep twice) I really like this concept Pitch. He’s so much more interesting and relevant and it makes the rest of the guardians relationship with him so much more interesting too

I absolutely ADORE Pitch's redesign like yasss gurl what a glo-up!!

this is so funny since I was just thinking about Pitch the other day and how weird the plot holes were 😆 I totally agree with you, I think that Pitch's center wasn't to strike fear into children, but to act as a figure for redemption or safety. Because historically, the only time the 'Boogie Man' gets brought up is when a child is being naughty. Pitch is used as a warning for kids to be good (In the same vein with the tv show 'Lucifer'). I think Pitch was chosen to be the Guardian of Protection. Thank you for rewriting this, it's just what I needed

I love the Pitch redesign! The details are a huge improvement compared to his Canon design. Also love the rewritten, your Pitch feels a lot like a strict but protective father.

I think the reason it feels kinda clunky is because if Jack is the main character, it would feel more natural to end the movie after he gets his ice palace.

There was a HUGE missed opportunity with ROTG Santa. The swords. They could've, and should've been candy canes!

I'm really glad you made Pitch sympathetic, I always felt a bit bad for him growing up lol. I really like this rewrite the ending is way more satisfying imo, and the redesigns are super cool, also I'm glad you gave Sandy more development (just bc he's my favourite lol)

Thank you! And yess, you might be able to tell from the channel, my favourite thing to do is rewrite stories 😤😤. Also, glad someone noticed the Layton!! It’s actually from the game Layton Vs Wright (from Ace Attorney, it was such a terrific crossover).

Santa Claus with the naughty and nice list tattooed on his arms is peak character design and the only thing that can top it is the tooth fairy being a hummingbird. Also Pitch had a backstory in the books he was a soldier for the moon who was in charge of watching over these little shadow things called fearlings and they talked to him every day until he let them out and they took him over.

I feel like we got robbed because we could've had this version of Rise of the Guardians but we got the original version.

Omg I LOVE THISSSS!! Pitch as safety is AMAZING! And kinda shows the two types of fear - rational and irrational: rational (fear of falling when standing next to a cliff) is what keeps our basic human instincts from going out the window; and irrational, which is what most people jump to when they hear the word fear - this is your more spooky monsters and fantastical . Pitch would naturally be a mix of both but people would almost always sadly assume he’s irrational fear and therefore evil. It’s just the first thing that comes to mind because fear in any form (as you well put) isn’t something pleasant to experience, so we naturally try to avoid it. But the man in the moon would have chosen him because he also is a key part in keeping the world safe. I just loved this video so much omg

I LOVE THIS! it also fits with the book lore where pitch was originally a good guy that got corrupted

Coincidentally, I just finished watching the movie, went upstairs and put on KZread. I saw this on my recommended and watched this. PLEASE FULLY ANIMATE THIS ITS AMAZING

I really love this rewrite! I love the movie, but I definitely didn’t think too hard about the flaws in the movie until seeing this rewrite and how well it patched up the holes. Seeing how everyone’s roles are important and how Pitch gets redeemed because we can’t live without some fear of danger, really pulls this rewrite together. I love the attention to detail and how well the rewrite is crafted with the ending and the third act. Maybe a few more scenes of Pitch coming around to being a guardian and making up for almost making the guardians fade out existence would be nice before the epilogue to really hit home the redemption. Other than that, it’s really good! I’d like to add one thing for the scene where Jack remembers his memories. It’d be cool to see him experiencing those memories as if he’s standing on the side seeing his younger self play out the memories if that makes sense. It’d start with him being a newborn baby and seeing his parents first in a cabin (maybe they grew up in a place that’s always snowy, so the other seasons aren’t familiar to him). Then the scene would shift and we’d see him meeting his little sister. He’s probably excited to have a new sister and blabs about all the things that they could do together. Cut to various scenes of the two growing up, getting in trouble, Jack playing pranks on his sister, etc., but ultimately having a super close bond. Present-day Jack is definitely happy about the memories as his reaction in the movie is until we get to the scene with the lake. Present-day Jack doesn’t realize this is his last moment he was alive and so the gut punch will come when he see his past self fall into the lake. So it starts off with him and his sister wanting to go ice skating, and forgot to check to make sure the lake was thick enough which is where the scene plays out just like it did in the movie. I interpreted it as Jack trying to keep his sister from panicking because if she freaks out and tries to run or shift more then she’d fall in, hence why Jack was acting silly and making her laugh. Jack falls in the ice because he stood straight up instead of distributing his weight across the ice as you should, and the rest plays out about the same as the movie except Jack’s mood is more bittersweet than inspired. He’s happy for the lovely memories, but definitely is sad that he didn’t get to live out his life and see what happened to his family. But it helps him see his purpose, be responsible, and see how Pitch’s role is caution and safety through fear.

I love it! It still has that childlike wonder, but it feels more complete.

"Didnt come out perfectly" miss GURL DO YOU HEAR YOURSELF?! I didnt know i needed this version of the movie until i saw your video HOLY FUCK i need this in move theaters NOW this is amazing! Wonderful video!

This sounds like a much more satisfying story than the original one, the parallels between jack and pitch line up better and the story centers on the main cast instead of making it feel like these random kids are playing a big role in metaphysical powers that they in no way should be worried about because hey they’re kids and don’t need to be a part of that. You tied up the plot holes I hated in the original (where pitch came from being the biggest of them) and created a charming story that improved on all aspects. Wonderful!

Absolutely amazing, I loved how pitch gets redeemed here and I love how it’s a moment of reflection for the guardians that they were in the wrong for their past mistakes and how it all gives the moral of it’s ok to be scared and feel fear. I love the design changes to tooth jack and pitch, their designs were always so simple to me and for pitch and jack it really shows through in their personality changes (maybe jack’s isn’t actually too changed, just gave me a different vibe). My only problem with it is how easy it was to get the kids to believe again as well as Sandy’s revival (which also annoyed me in the original movie) I feel like the children believing could have been done similarly to the movie where jack himself gives up his selfishness to make the children believe. But this is still really good, if the actual film was made like this it’d be my 1st or 2nd fav from 3rd fav beating out into the spider verse and maybe the 1st pirates movie, thank you for making me sad this version doesn’t exist outside this video

@RockmanGaming I feel there's some stories that can only be experience passively and some that would be better suited when you can control them. Videogames still see story as a dirty word so Iunno what you're talking about there lol.

10/10 love this and your other rewrite videos!!! This one, the PPG one, and the MLP one are my favorites! I think my only critique would be throwing in more examples of Pitch being redeemable throughout to balance the bad he does, for instance maybe instances where children that are fearful during some points in the movie end up staying safe, the guardians being reckless and Jack noticing/Pitch pointing that out, Pitch feeling genuine remorse for what he did to Tooth/Sandman and what will happen once no one believes in the guardians anymore, etc. It would make his redemption more cohesive imo, but that's just my thoughts. Overall love the story and the video!!

I really want to see this made into a real movie it would great to watch

Hearing you talk about how Pitch's design reminded you of disdachas (we call them thobes here in Saudi Arabia, so the name was new to me) was very interesting, and I loved seeing a bit of Arab flavor on more characters.

This is amazing. I feel like this could lead to a second movie which could be the guardians dealing with forces of nature like for example mother nature, the man in the moon, helios maybe (the man who rules and runs the sun), and more. They could be feuding and the man in the moon fearing the chaos it may cause to the humans assigns a new guardian.

i love jack an pitches dynamic in this

Omg I love this! Rotg was one of my fave movies growing up and I think exploring more that pitch being a being a fear/safety would have really brought the original movie to another level. I love seeing content like this that builds on the original’s shortcomings while also very much paying homage to what was great about it. Love this

Of fear/safety*

I honestly really love this so much the framing that pitch wasn't bad because his idea didn't feel that way just kind of messed up this is real good

OMG I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS I adored the original movie but this....THIS.... This Is A Masterpiece

@@Elmushterri My family and I watch the original all the time and it never gets old but I love how in your version we get a different view and perspective of the characters I’ve always been curious about Pitch’s backstory and the bed(?) And we never get a clear view on that but in this it’s completely different and I’m actually satisfied with the ending this time xd The original is more rushed and doesn’t take its time to “appreciate the little things” but here we have a compelling backstory, bonding moments, character development, The👏Redemption👏Arc👏 It’s got the whole package I now kinda wish the original was made like this lol Anyway I love your videos they are always super interesting and entertaining to watch I enjoy writing and your videos help me understand characters better and how to make a plot more interesting etc... I believe that what you are doing is really cool and I can’t wait to see more of your videos 💕

This is so perfect. I love the original one but like you said it's OK to see it's flaws. Your take on it is so good can one please realize it!

I really really like this rewrite actually! The story while mostly told in broad strokes in this vid, I'm really intrigued with the concept! Also the designs are really good! I love how shapey you made them, especially in the little doodle sketches throughout the vid, especially Jack's little poofy hair which is too friggin cute. ALSO YOU DID PITCH SO MUCH JUSTICE I AM DELIGHTED AND HIS DESIGN IS *CHEF'S KISS* it's very cool and very nice.

I never know what to comment, but I love your art style and how dynamic everything looks :)

Aww, thanks!! I’m happy that you think they’re dynamic 😭🧡🧡💅

you might think the act 3 is not perfect, but i think the whole thing is so amazing and i love it

If only there were enough animators interested to make a reanimation of the movie with this script. It wouldn’t have to be great animation, even be an animatic of sorts. It would be cool to see.

OURGHH DUDE!! This was amazing and I adore the new designs you've done!! now i'm super sad this isn't the actual movie because this would've been so much fun, and i really like the ending you chose!!

I want this and like a throwaway comment of "I was almost late for exam, but I had a nightmare about being late for my exam so I set an alarm" or something like that.

oh i absolutely love pitch's redesign. You did a really great job with him uwaaa I also really liked how much more you emphasized the importance of caution/fear with him. tis very nice. As well as the horror Jack would feel from learning about his death. :'''D Enjoyed the video a ton! thank you for making it!

Ok ok, I was recommended this video by KZread and I'm glad. I really, really, really like this rewrite. I love your version of Pitch and his complexity. I also love his new backstory. In the context of the movies Pitch doesn't really make much sense but I did learn about the books and his origins but yeah. Anyways I love love this rewrite

I loved the original movie myself but this made the movie so much better! ❤ I love the viewpoint of Pitch being a guardian. It makes more sense than the way the movie described.

Absolutely fantastic. Everything is so stylized to a degree where everything is just so detailed. The thought process behind all these characters are wonderful and make a lot more sense than the movie. Your art is SO PRETTY. Keep doing the good work

On the tiny chance that u didn’t already know, I believe that this movie was based on the book series guardians of childhood :) it’s a great series

This video was AMAZING!!! it made me want to create my own guardian, and I don't mean redesigning the movies, I mean to make my OWN guardians from another celebration. These twos are gonna represent the same thing, but how their own way of doing it. After thinking, I decided to give them the name Trick and Treat (For now at least). Trick will be the Spirit of Halloween, looking over the spirits that have arrived in the living to get back to use to it and making sure that the spirits don't do anything bad while there, espesonly to the kids. After Halloween ends, the spirits get passed on to Treat, the Spirit of Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) where they help guide the spirits to their graves to celebrate the life they had. Now, you may be asking, "What is their repritaion?". Now as I said earlier, they represent the same thing. Cherishment and Respect. Those are attending a funrial to remember the good times of their descessed loved ones or visiting the loved one's grave to put down flowers or a small gift, that is what Trick and Treat center is. (Sorry I can't explain it well enough). Anyways, that my fan made guardians, wasn't sure where to share dump this info, so thought to dump it at the place where I got the idea from. Thanks for reading and have a good day!

This fandom is so strong I love you guys

I really love your spin on the Guardians, it's a refreshing take seeing more thought and care into Pitch's story as well as the others getting screentime together. Not to mention the rad designs you updated them with (I love what u did with Tooth, she looks so gorgeous) Also also- I gotta say that it's so thematically sweet and perfect if Tooth is the first one of the original Guardians to apologize to Pitch and want him back in the group. Like she has every reason to hold a grudge since she was the first to be sabotaged and had all her helpers stolen from her. But I think bc she learnt of his life before, she can humanize him and see how genuinely hurt he must have been after they kicked him out.

Christmas day is 25 DEC and Christmas eve as you can guess is the 24.... Also I love the idea of you redoing "Rise of the Gradians" because this movie is special to me Edit after watching the hole video: HOLY CRAP I LOVED THIS I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE PICH AS A GARDIAN IT MAKES SO MUCH SENSE! assuming you could fit that into a movie how long would your movie be? I assume it would be about say 15 mins per sceen to make the 1hour 30min mark? or would you let the movie hit 2 hours? (my brain thinks best choie) its a great story board concept though!

This idea is so cool! And I have to say that I never really liked the way they made Pitch the complete bad guy or whatever, I always wanted a version where Pitch got his redemption arc

I loved this, filled a Rise of the Guardian hole in my heart I didn't know existed. Also that ending leaves plenty of space for fans to thrive through ocs or fanfiction or a sequel to be made.

I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS REWRITE! I think it addresses a lot of plot holes or things in the original I would have liked to see improved. ALSO CAN I JUST SAY your art style is beautiful

This is a remake i didnt know i needed but absolutely adore, this movie holds a special place in my heart and soul and this remake would just make it perfect

This is lovely!! I am very happy ROTG is getting new fan content like this Also your version of Pitch is so pretty, lovely design

If it’s alright for me to say, I feel like it would be interesting yet sympathetic if the kids represent each guardian even Pitch maybe an older kid like a older sibling (not Jack tho) that might connect them even closer with the kids being their greatest hope

As a Russian I was always wondering why is Nick russian cause… he’s not involved in Christmas here… Orthodox Christmas is kinda different from Catholic and Protestant ones, and no one except really religious people celebrates it. Instead we celebrate New Year, and all this - tree and presents and family gatherings - is all about New Year. And guess who is giving presents? Father Frost, yeah. (Actually, it would be better translating him Grandpa Frost but I see why traditional translation uses Father. It sounds better) He looks really great and design-wise? They did A REALLY GOOD JOB but… fact-wise… it’s weird Anyway your Jack and Tooth and Pitch are so so so great! Amazing, perfect use of color, im looking at this for five hours Good luck with college!!!

I really like this a lot more than the original, and it was my favourite thing growing up! I love love love it!!

“Nice Smile- Pitch addition” *PFFTTTTT-*

I absolutely adore the designs, the rewritten plot, and everything you've added or changed! I especially love Pitch's design, it adds to much more dimension to him as a character even without words. However I am wondering how and if Christmas was saved at all, like if the gifts were remade by the yetis or if they really could do nothing about it at that rate. This is truly a great rewrite of a wonderful movie while still sticking to its source material, and the source material of that even! I appreciate the time and effort put into this, and the fact that you put a TON of drawings to show each scene you're describing? Absolutely the cherry on top!!! 💕

This is amazing >:O I genuinely love this and I’m upset that this wasn’t the actual plot because I squealed at the very end 😭😭 Like this… this right here is something I would watch like… a million times This is perfect, wouldn’t change a thing 🤭

This was awesome!!! I recently rewatched the movie and was debating with my roommate why Pitch would've been a guardian and had the same logic of fear being beneficial to survival and such. (Also how it would make so much sense that Jack Frost and Pitch Black would be friends not only because dark/cold go together, but fear/fun kind of do too if you think of haunted houses/horror movies/scary amusement parks/etc.)

I love this so much! As i was watching this, i pictured the whole movie in my head and I wish we got this! It's so genius and it definitely ties everything together in a nice present! I would really love to see your take on the other holidays(Halloween, New Year, Valentine's, Ect.) and other magical beings (Krampus,Man in the Moon, Mother Nature, Old Man Winter, Father Time, Ect.) in your art style. Of course no rush cause school is important and so is your health! Another amazing video! Get well soon and can't wait for the next one!

Hey i dont know how to explain this, but i have been fangirling over this rewrite as ive been listening to it. Its just so good and i wanna see it in real time, but your storyboards(i think that what theyre called) are also so cool, the designs are so inspired and it makes me so happy and idk i just think this is amazing thank you you're a good storyteller aaAAAAA.

I don't have much to say i just love your version of Pitch. He's the best and i love the good end you gave him! And the design too, he looks amazing!!! This made me very happy, amazing vid :]

This is waaayy better than the actual film

Jack frost's look in this video makes me think of Neil gaiman's dream and death. I think that is just wonderful

absolutely in love with your pitch. also, this story is so good! i am so in love with it i am going to rotate it in my brain for a WHILE. literally so in love with how you draw characters also,, like yes i am loving the way you shade thing 10/10 ty for your content

Me the whole time: Is that a Professor Layton bgm? WAIT, now it’s ACE ATTORNEY?! Nice to see (or hear) a fellow fan (I’m more acquainted with AA though). And let’s not forget the amazing rewrite and redesigns! I absolutely adore ROTG too up until now and seeing someone still remembers and adore this movie (though not fully believing the guardians irl) is something I resonate so much 😌😌😌 Not to mention your sense of humour, I love everything about this video!❤️✨ You just earned yourself a new sub!
