It’s weird, I wanted Mo to be with Charlie in the movie but I don’t want them to be together in the book (she has a crush on him now). I want Mo to be single, and I would’ve liked that in the movie if THEY HADNT FORGIVEN SCOTT

Ugh not then trying to redeem Scott and pin the blame on someone else

As much as I love the movie I do wish it got the chance to be developed into a longer movie or even a limited series because these scenes that are more dramatic/dark would’ve been so interesting to see

I just realized they don’t show much of Charlie’s home life here other than the imaginary voice of his dead twin

Taking away the lemonade machine happens a lot sooner here

Meh I like the reveal of Olivia’s dad better in the movie

OMG THEYRE 14 WHY DID THAT GO OVER MY HEAD WHEN EVERYONE CALLS THEM FRESHMAN

YES THEYRE BABIES

These are my 5 children, no one hurt them

Gosh this is reminding me how much I love the movie (the book is great so far and the movie is super accurate !)

Mo is soooo naiveeee and susceptible to peer pressure
I will forever STAY MAD that they made her forgive Scott in the movie and LET HIM JOIN THE BAND!!! PLS DONT DO THIS BOOK BC HES EVEN MORE OF A SLEAZE BALL

They took away all the “ethnic” instruments for the movie lol

BISH STELLA SAID ITS NOT A REAL DRUM SET??? Oof white girl energy

I keep getting confused when they say Naomi attaches to Mo bc of Naomi Scott, when here age just has a friend named Naomi 😭

Glad they replaced Wen’s trumpet with a keyboard in the movie lol, unless he gets a keyboard later in the book

Also — they changed Charlie’s Latin influenced drums for regular old drums in the movie?? Pshh give me the congas

Ew a Columbus quote?

Wow Disney actually got some of this word for word

They’re all so mean to each other in their inner thoughts 😭 let’s just all be friends already guys

Justice for Stella

What a unique concept… would like to see this as a movie 🤔 even if it’s not great, the fact that it’s magic of Christmas-y gives it +10 points

“Hearing myself sing in front of people felt weird. I’d never thought I had a very pretty voice. Instead of a pure, clear sound like the singers in, say, a Disney cartoon, mine is kind of low and scratchy, like a three-pack-a-day smoker. It’s always been that way, even when I was little.” LMAOO the irony

Ohhh so the first song they sing together in detention is a commercial jingle 😮 makes more sense than them randomly knowing Olivia’s personal song lol

Wow Stella is me

It is weird that Naomi Scott keeps getting cast as fully Indian/Arabian characters, apparently the Hollywood machine doesn’t know any Indian actresses (biggest lie ever)

So far it’s the same just less Disney-ified, example: Wen is unwillingly attracted to his dads gf because she is so young, which is one more reason he’s so weirded out about them dating
