We all know what the moral to The Lorax is, right? Respect the environment and conservation. Well guess what, you're WRONG! At least, you are wrong if we are talking about the 2012 movie version of The Lorax. You see, that movie made some... interesting changes to the story we all know and love. Changes that kind of ruin that message. In fact, it almost turns it on it's head and says the opposite. Yet, the movie STILL claims to be about environmentalism. Get ready, I am about to expose all of the LIES of The Lorax movie!

The trees can’t be harmed if the Lorax is armed.
"Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better, it's not." my favorite Dr. Seuss quote ever.
“It’s not evil, it’s just stupid” idk why but I love this line
Ted only wanted a tree to get his crush so it is sad to know that he did not really want trees. How could have I missed this.
Matt pat : "I'm sorry, but I can't fault a guy with a dream, that overcomes adversity to get tremendous success, as the bad guy here" Also mattpat: "Remy is the villain of ratatouille"
_"I am the Lorax and I speak for the trees. Save the Amazon, or I'll break your knees."_ *~ The Lorax*
Like the Lorax, Danny Devito is a short guy with godly powers.
It's funny that Matt Pat says that everyone in thneedvile is perfectly healthy even though we see in the opening minutes of the movie there are glowing children
I blame Lorax. He didn't tell Onceler about tree seeds or saplings until AFTER all the trees were gone.
We just gonna ignore biggering? The best song in the album that doesn't acctualy appear in the movie because it hit illumination too close to home.
I always thought the family was the villains because they force him to chop down the trees, and then when they run out, the mother is disappointed in him.
Matpat: "No one is suffering from O'hare's corporate greed." Meanwhile: "Our son Wesley kinda glows"
It's so sad that the movie took on this more comedic, child-friendly tone. The book has a much better message and delivery. Also, the song they cut out of the movie (Biggering) is one of my favorite songs now.
The saddest part of this theory is that there was a version of the Lorax that was planned to have that message. The problem was the people in charge of illumination didn’t want to make themselves look bad.
Matpat is like the king of making "The villain is right" theories.
Dr. Seuss isn't just turning in his grave. He's rotating so quickly he's drilling a hole into the earths core!
Matpat: there is no coughing or choking or any side effects Glowing baby: am I a joke to you
MatPat acknowledging the existence of Onceler x Evil Onceler is probably the most cursed thing Ive heard this week
My favorite part from this movie was always the “let it die, let it die, let it shrivel you and die” the way Mr.Ohare just claps and taps his feet was so fucking funny
