Watching that trailer made me wanna throw up. What an abomination to young educational entertainment.........
(In other words, that movie looks like it's going to suck.)
Exactly what I was trying to say. There are wonderful flights of fancy in kid's entertainment. This is just a cynical attempt to make the next something that no one cares about, even for a nostalgia factor.
But also, that's what's so funny about it, too! Everything is so generic, the characters are tropes and not even cleverly hidden in anyway.
I mean, the girl is the girly girl, there's the tough action extreme boy, and kid with glasses, possibly the relatively smart one. And if he is the smart one, he's going to throw around the word "calculations" a billion times per sentence.
And the way they talk... UGH! There's nothing wrong with making up goofy sounding words... but must there be so much of them?
