neutral · AI labelView post →Books to film 📚=🎞️ Mrs Frisby & the Rats of Nimh (1971) by Robert O'Brien was adapted to film by Don Bluth as The Secret of Nimh (1982). The animated film adds tension, "magic" (as the book is science focused), & a simpler motive for the Rat society's desire for independence. 🐀🧪✨ #filmsky #booksky
neutral · AI labelView post →Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH (and the movie adaptation The Secret of Nimh) starts off like any children's tale: talking animals, cozy cottages, and epic quests. But Robert C O'Brien's novel takes an unexpected science fiction twist...

neutral · AI labelView post →Studying up on the Rats of NIMH series. I admire the qualities of both the book and movie, I haven't read the sequels written by daughter of the writer. My conundrum is how I should go about my fan fiction storyboard? Spoilers: it's possible Justin has died In the end, I figured out something.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Rats: A Witcher Tale (Netflix's #TheWitcher spin-off streaming movie) was worth watching just for canonizing the Nilfgaardian armor from season 1 as "ballsack armor"
positive · AI labelView post →Love this movie. I love the book Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, but they are two totally different experiences that happen to share some character names and plot beats.
neutral · AI labelView post →Secrets of NIMH was a book too - the series is called the Rats of NIMH. I read them but not sure I ever saw the movie. Enjoy!

neutral · AI labelView post →The Rats Are Coming-The Werewolves Are Here (1972) is praised by "trash cinema" fans for being unintentionally hilarious. The absurd characters, the shabby werewolf effects, and the melodramatic performances make it a notable piece of exploitation history. #horror #horrormovies #horrorsky
neutral · AI labelView post →I’m sorry, but you did miss out on something special. I have never seen either movie, but I did read "Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH” in fifth grade, and it still brings me joy to think about it. It’s one of the “read as a kid” books I bought for my “as a grown up” collection. Definite Nostalgia 🥰
neutral · AI labelView post →Wolfmanuary! Squishmothra and I are unsure WTF we just watched. Here we go with The Rats Are Coming! The Werewolves are Here! (1972, Andy Milligan) & Wolfen (1981, Michael Wadleigh). The first is a werewolf movie but doesn't want to be and the second is not a werewolf movie but kinda wants to be?
neutral · AI labelView post →One of the local libraries is doing a kids book and movie program with Mrs. Frisby and The Rats of NIMH, which feels like quite a choice!
neutral · AI labelView post →I had my students pick out books from the classroom library that they thought looked “boring” and one of the kids picked Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH and I nearly lost my mind. That book is amazing and the movie is so good!

Another Andy Milligan movie after the recent posting of The Rats Are Coming! the Werewolves Are Here! Pinnacle of Denis DeMarne’s career 😂

neutral · AI labelView post →'Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH'. It's one of those cases of the movie version displacing people's awareness of the original book. Which is a genuine shame, as it's a fantastic fantasy that is sufficiently realistic that many children might not realize it's really a sort of fairy tale.

neutral · AI labelView post →A book that changed me as a kid: Probably Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH (but it could also be related to the Don Bluth animated film). A book I read more recently that changed me: N. K. Jemisin's The Fifth Season. It showed me what a writer can do when no one gets in her way.

Severin used the sound and music where there was none. It's 20 mins shorter without the rats. 📽 #PsychotronicPsunday #HorrorMovies #Filmsky

neutral · AI labelView post →well - "The Hobbit" was read to us in Gr.6(? possibly 7?) at Primary School, a school which had a selection of Asterixes in the library! 🥰 Roll forward to Gr.9 where "The Hobbit" was one of the set texts for English. (as was "Mrs Frisby & the Rats of NIMH" - later to be a wonderful animated movie!)

neutral · AI labelView post →Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH by Robert C. O’Brien Read this with my little one. It was a lot less scary than the movie that terrified me when I was young. It drags in the middle a bit when Nicodemus tells you his backstory for like six chapters. Son and I loved it though. Very charming!
neutral · AI labelView post →There’s a book called Mrs Frisbee and the Rats of NIMH. It’s awesome, and the rats were engineered and trained to be super intelligent. It was also a wild ass film - seriously trippy in places 😂
neutral · AI labelView post →Mrs. Frisby & the Rats of NIMH freaked me out at 5. The movie, not the book.

neutral · AI labelView post →Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIMH, which the film is apparently based is my favorite book of all time. Read it to my kids. Then we watch this train wreck and my son was pissed and cried because it was so off track. To those who liked the film. Don’t read the book, it will ruin the film for you.😂
neutral · AI labelView post →#34: Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. Read with kiddo. I saw the movie of this when I was a kid, but I did not remember the story *at all*. And apparently the book is a lot more detailed about the backstory than the movie. Deserving of its honor. The backstory was amazing and full of great detail.
neutral · AI labelView post →And so, after completing Banjo the Woodpile Cat (fun fact: the animation was done entirely in a garage :0), their first film would be an idea that Disney declined a few years back, which is an adaptation of Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimn by Robert C. O’Brien.
neutral · AI labelView post →My second favourite Hammer film. One of those books passed around the playground by giggling schoolboys*. See also The Rats, The Fog, and Carrie. *Me and my mates
neutral · AI labelView post →The Secret of NIHM (1982) Favorite childhood book (Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIHM) and film adaptation next to Watership Down. #filmsky #letterboxd
neutral · AI labelView post →Watching #TheWitcher again. And Mistle looks far too old for Ciri. Also, who tf wanted a #TheRats spinoff? No one, I imagine. I sure as hell don’t. I’d rather a prequel on #Emhyr on how he came to power. They’ve aged #BartEdwards for this role. Remove the grey they put in his hair for current Emhyr and wham bam you got Duny / Emhyr back!

neutral · AI labelView post →I read Mrs Frisby and the Rats of NIHM quite a few times. There are other books in the series but I’ve never read them. The movie is fun but a pale shadow of the book.
neutral · AI labelView post →I do like Mann's film of The Keep, although I've not seen the 210 minute version. Not seen Deadly Eyes aka The Rats, but never thought that book would be easy to film...
neutral · AI labelView post →Another not too shabby film adaptation is The Keep by E Paul Wilson, movie version of the Rats, was utter rubbish 😜
neutral · AI labelView post →Today's authorial rabbit hole: Robert C. O'Brien, he of Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIHM. The animated film was a formative one for me and I remember enjoying the book thoroughly when I did read it. The surprising thing about O'Brien is that he died in 1973 at the age of 55 of a heart attack.
