kim possible live action

I’M SO MAD, I’M SICK OF ALL THESE LIVE ACTION REMAKES THAT SUCK.

I just found out there’s a Kim Possible live action remake and it looks so bad. The visual effects look like a 5-year-old did them and it’s clearly made for a younger audience. I’m not really sure why they wouldn’t market this for people more my age because I feel like they would get a better outcome for this film if it was for an older audience. While I know the point of a remake is to introduce this story to a new audience it still should provide nostalgia for the crowd that has seen the OG version. This show was made when I was a child so the people that know the old Kim Possible would look forward to seeing a remake of a film if its good. Key word, GOOD.

I don’t have an issue with remaking a film if there’s a way it’s executed to where it looks like it could be just as good as the original, if not, better. I think the reason a lot of people (including myself) don’t like remakes is because you can completely change a story, and if the story is good from the start, why change it?

Here’s the trailer so you can understand my anger:

    I feel this anger deep in my soul. The second they released the cast for this movie I know this was going to be a New Disney disaster. It's really disappointing to see something that I loved so much as a child done so dirty in the form of a live action remake. everything from the costuming, to the script, and especially the little bits of fight sequences seen in the trailer are such a let down to the original cartoon.

    I think that something like this could have had strong potential with the right production company and budget to support it but it does just come off as tacky and poorly animated. I don't think I would have been that frustrated if it were a live action that looked decent but they did Kim Possible very wrong with this live version.

    While I'm not defending this trailer in any way (it looks horrible), and correct me if I'm wrong but this appears to be a straight to TV movie that will be released on the Disney channel and not in theaters. So at least there not trying too make money off of people's nostalgia with a terrible remake. Rather they're just making a terrible live-action adaptation for the Disney channel, which I suppose I can't get too mad at. I mean, how much effort does Disney ever put into their straight to TV movies? Not much. So I wouldn't expect much from this sub-par trailer.

Bratz: Rock Angelz is the movie I didn't know I needed

Image
This weekend, I watched the hit 2005 animated movie Bratz: Rock Angelz. This movie was one of the first Bratz films in CGI, and let me tell you- the plot is ALL OVER THE PLACE. The girls start a fashion magazine and use stolen passes to get into hot London punk clubs, but when they lose their passes they decide that the only way to get into the gig is to become a rock band? This movie can be considered capitalist propaganda- the Bratz shop in order to destress about their problems, and it's an implemental part of their lives. They don't have jobs either- Jade has an internship, but only for three hours until she is fired. Chloe meets a TRASH British prince and ignores her best friend Yasmin who finds celebrity judge Byron Powell's (I don't make this stuff up) dog, Ozzy. Jade and Sasha try to do a photo shoot for the magazine, but Sasha micromanages the whole thing and makes her friend feel bad! And this whole time, there's these two evil blond twins (Kaley Cuoco PLA

Does Animation Have to Make You Laugh?

Something that I have taken note of lately is how you barely ever find any mainstream animation that doesn't have some semblance of comedy integrated into it. For example, when was the last time you saw a Disney movie that didn't make you laugh (or at least try to)? And when was the last time you saw an adult cartoon that wasn't making a joke every 10 seconds. My point is, mainstream animation has seemed to simplify itself into a single tone: Comedic. Even in the films that are primarily covering serious topics there is typically a comic relief character to add some lighthearted fun to the film. But do all films need this? Is it necessary for all animation to try and entertain us in the exact same way? My answer is no and I wish that more animation studios and their production companies would realize this. One thing I don't think many people realize is that animation can be lighthearted without being funny. When I say you don't have to be funny all the time, that

She-ra is my new favorite gay icon

She-ra is a Netflix original spinoff of the he-man franchise. I was never a fan of the original show, but I thought I'd check she-ra out and I'm glad I did. It's a fun show, and I wish we had more like it when we were kids. It's one of the few kids shows where women outnumber men in the lead cast, and there's so much gay but it's not like "woah look at all this gay!" It's a lot more subtle, and I think that's great. Of course, there are more seasons to come, but I'm glad that the first one showed as much restraint as it did. I feel like if we treat LGBT people as special, it'll only perpetuate the idea that they're something "other" than straight people. It's important that our pop culture reflects the idea that gay people are just, you know, people. Take all that with a grain of salt though, I'm a straight cis white guy. I just wanted to start a conversation.
