Nutcracker is a famous romance so who the fuck thought it was a good idea to turn it onto a movie that's anything but? Based on reviews and spoiler from The Movie Spoiler, this is like Tumblr feminism - girl is empowered only when she needs no man. Well, that's fine and dandy but why make a Nutcracker movie about empowered girl who needs no man when you can make, I dunno, Nancy Drew or something or a brand new character? Imagine what a fiasco BatB would have been if there was no romance. or ASIB.
