    Only 20 votes for now, seems not a lot considering its so time-near to its release.

     

    I now mostly counts for the big budgets so near to the release, small releases not considered as Oscar material usually get less reviews (in a big way less).

     

    I have never heard about the character before stumbling over it here at BOT, curious to see where it all ends (ratings, audience, BO,...)

    The cartoon was probably one of the biggest kids  shows  on tv for a while. But maybe it's not as popular in Europe.

    Ah. Would explain why I was completely unaware. I don't venture over to reddit. Hell I'm not on social media anymore! What a breath of fresh air!

     

    One disturbing thing I have become aware of though is multiple people mentioning something about pedophile symbols on the movie poster. The only reason I'm not completely disregarding it is it just so happens I recently learned about the big, horrible secret in Hollywood right now: rampant pedophilia! I was led to the topic after watching a video on Youtube about the circumstances around Heath Ledger's death. I was so disturbed and emotional that night I couldn't sleep.

    ummmm.......yeah I'm not a conspiracy person so yeah..moving on

    Not really, how many movies these days star 7 year olds as the lead? In the later versions of the show, Dora is apparently 10-11 years old but you don't get that many movies starring kids that age either, especially not action movies. Lower budget comedies or awards dramas, maybe.

     

    It might not have been a bad idea to make a movie cheap, have middle school-ish actors and if it's a success, they could've cranked out a sequel or two before Dora and friends are obviously adults. But a high school story is a safer bet to Hollywood. The Harry Potter movies probably only got to keep the characters as tweens when it started because the books were so popular already, and Rowling had a lot of power compared to most creators. 

    Yep. Percy Jackson for example aged up the characters when they made the movie. Movies like High school musical were aimed at kids but featured teenagers in the roles. It’s not something brand new.

    Not this movie, but still interesting I guess. Gotta love Shaggy as Sebastian tho. This movie better get Sean Paul then. Dude would kill Under the Sea

    Auli’i Cravalho was one of my fan castings for this movie. Love the casting!

    Good thing the early Rotten Tomatoes Score is 60% Fresh. That can hopefully help the movie out in it’s opening weekend.

    I think it will end up in the 60's or 70's. Based on the reviews it was better than the marketing and it's a fun adventure film. But I don't think good reviews will really help he film that much.

    Time for a new protagonist

     

    *Cue to Washington*

    thats a bit corny/racist ?

    lol that's what I was saying. If Nolan wasn't known for his super white films I wouldn't think so but he is so it's super corny to me lmao. In context it make a bit more sense though since it's followed by "Time had come for a new kind of mission" also time might be a double entendre since it might be about time travel.

  7. Dunkirk was good but I couldn't understand the British accents a third of time and it didn't really have characters to me. Also all the young white British guys with brown hair were sometimes hard to differentiate  so that's actually my least fave Nolan movie lmao (I know ...petty reasons). This seems more up my alley. Seems Inception-esque which is my favorite Nolan film.

    I dont know why some posters ridicule all posts and call it a fake.

    Nolan always likes to have early teaser that barely shows anything(TDK just had conversation between bruce/alfred plus joker laughter).

     

    This is gonna be huge with supposed time travel connatation.

    how can he have a tagline that says "be ready for a new protagonist" what does that even mean....that's so cringeworthy especially with John David as the lead...

    Why can't people accept that many parts of Tarantino movies are tongue-in-cheek, including the Bruce Lee scene? It's a Tarantino movie! Why are we suddenly concerned about going by the book and painting a character exactly how their real self was. Again, it's a QT movie, not a biopic. People should repeat this to themselves over and over again before their daily outrage routines.

     

    As for Bruce Lee's daughter or Sharon Tate's sister, same goes for them. Sure I can see why they'd be miffed - nobody wants to see their own family members how they weren't - but they have to know they can't take a QT movie too seriously in that regard. I'm sure they'll live (but they also know their displeasure will generate headlines and drama so there's that).

    Tarantino fanboys are the worst: Exhibit B.

    So did the entire theater I was in. People are just looking to bitch about something 24/7.

    Yes god forbid the daughter and only living child of Bruce Lee complain about the her dead father being the punching bag comic relief in a movie. She's just bitching and moaning. 

     

    Honestly Tarantino fanboys are the worst. Shannon has been through enough but now she has to deal with opinions from people who feel they know better than her about her own father.
