Healthy Home Economist / Archives / Green Living / The Lorax 3D: Simply Unmissable

The Lorax 3D: Simply Unmissable

by Sarah Pope / Affiliate Links ✔

“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot,
nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”

The Lorax By Dr. Seuss

The Lorax by Dr. Seuss came out in print in 1971 when I was in second grade.   This book had a lasting impression on me as a child and was one of the very first books I chose for my own children as they were learning to read.

I was thrilled when the Lorax was finally released as a movie last month.  I was one of the first in line with my daughter to see the 3D version and even though I am usually disappointed when a book I love is made into a movie, this time, I was delighted and in no way let down with the visual interpretation of this great children’s tale.

The Lorax 3D is nothing short of sensational and my daughter and I were so in love with the movie that we dragged the rest of the family to see it again this afternoon.  Even seeing it the second time, I found myself tearing up at the end.

If you have any spare time this holiday weekend, take your children to see The Lorax 3D.   It is worth the few extra dollars to see the 3D version by the way.  The colors and scenery of  the film are so vibrant that the 3 dimensional effects are just astounding and make the experience that much more memorable.

Below is the clip of our favorite song from the movie.   Have any of you seen the film yet?  Were you as thrilled as we were?

    We’ve not seen it yet and am not sure that we will. As much as we have loved the book, I am concerned with the ‘earth worship’ vibe that comes from it….just my two cents though.

    Have you herd anything about Monsanto using the Lorax to improve their image?

    I like the quote at the beginning of the article. Like so many things you touched upon in your blog, Sarah, such as issues on vaccination and countless others, “[u]nless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” We shall fight the good fight. Otherwise we are all going to be like the kids from the districts in the Hunger Games.

    Sarah, do you have any concerns about 3D technology? When I went to see Avatar in 3D my husband and I both went home with severe headaches.

      No I don’t have any concerns. I know that some folks react badly to 3D but I think perhaps it might be similar to some people getting seasick and others not. Just a personal sensitivity. I know for me I used to get pretty sick by 3D type stuff but since changing my diet and particularly taking a daily dose of fermented cod liver oil/butter oil, I don’t have any sensitivity to spatial type of situations anymore. I can even do the 3D stuff at Disney where I could never have done it even in my 20’s.

    I read this children’s picture book biography of Ted Geisel (Dr. Seuss) to my kids when they were young http://www.amazon.com/The-Boy-Fairfield-Street-Geisel/dp/0375855505/ref=sr_1_7?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1333811583&sr=1-7 and it deepened my appreciation and respect for Dr. Seuss immensely. I would highly recommend it, especially if you can find it at your local library.

    The Lorax looks great! Loved the video clip!

    I have to agree.
    I am often disappointed in the content of children’s movies. We regularly screen them through http://www.pluggedinonline.com to get some input.
    The whole family went last night and enjoyed it. My 4 1/2 year old was slightly scared, but only becasue the Onceler’s face was hidden behind the shutters for most of the movie, so he assumed it was a monster. We all had a good conversation with how we are made to feel that we “need” things we don’t really. Very in line with alot of what we model and like to be able to talk about with the boys.

      I’m with you on that one. Most children’s movies I don’t like at all. I was soooo afraid the Lorax would disappoint me as I am such a longtime Seuss fan, but I was so amazingly delighted by it. I hardly EVER see a movie twice. So rare for me.

    I’m sure my kids would love it, and probably my grandkids too. But me – well, I’ve never been a fan of Dr. Seuss. I never even liked reading the books to my kids, to be quite honest. They always just seemed sort of, well, stupid sounding. It’s just the difference between generations I guess.

      Dr. Seuss’ books are extremely right brained. It teaches kids to think out of the box in a very fun way. Another Seuss fave of mine is “Oh The Places You’ll Go”. I read that book constantly to my kids when they were very young.

    Loved, Loved, Loved this movie! Took all 3 of my girls (two 6 year olds and 7 year old) and they adored it. I agree with you, it was great seeing it in 3D and worth the extra money. Thanks for sharing this post and video and bringing a smile to my face 🙂
