Heck, I'm just glad she's not lesbian... or something even further beyond.

Do Chip and Dale smoke Tegridy Weed?

Something more noteworthy

Spoiler:

Batman makes his Disney debut in this

[superstaff]

Oh. It has memes and random cartoon cameos. Of course people love it.

No, it's also actually a pretty good movie with some degree of heart to it.

Not everything is an agenda to destroy your childhood or your entertainment. Sometimes a movie can just be a good time.

Not everything is an agenda. I never said that?

But I have my doubts that this is good. It seems like most people are just dazzled by the brand name characters and memes littered throughout the movie. "Wow, it has the My Little Ponies! It has Randy Marsh! IT HAS UGLY SONIKKUUUUUUU!!!!!" It's basically like the MCU, particularly No Way Home. People don't care about the story or whether the characters are actually well written, it's just enough to see Tobey Maguire go "Oof hurt my back, guyz".

Not gonna lie, movie looks like straight trash but I'm morbidly curious about the MLP cameos. I'm weak sometimes.

But yeah everything I've seen/read makes it look like one of those movies that would give me a stroke.

Doubt away. I'm telling you it is, you don't have to believe that, but it's my opinion.

Yes, that's called 'simply having fun'

Which of course is a crime on the conservative-ran internet nowadays.

According to those people, nobody can amuse themselves without being accused of being a mindless consumer for the 'almighty machine'

I think a lot of Marvel movies deserve scorn, and I'm very happy more and more people are waking up to how terrible they are, mostly for the same reasons they cite, they don't care about the story...but there's never a story with them, never a point.

But films like this, much like Sonic, much like No Way Home, are perfectly fine, they have heart, they have likeable characters, they have hero's journeys, and in this film's case, there is commentary on how depending on your IPs can lead ultimately to them being twisted to the point they are beyond recognition. It's relevant sarcasm and I assure you it's gone over nobody's heads.

This film is what Space Jam 2 should have been, and the fact that Matt and Trey OK'd Randy to be in this movie shows they believe more in this film's heart, story and message, and this demonstrates that.

Their ok with Gadjet and zipper being a thing? Barf.

That's my issue with this thing and her not doing much.

You'd think since Disney is in this girl power kick that she'd get a good portion of the flick.

She's got pants and everything which is required.

Spoiler:

The only downside is, besides Monty being a victim, Gadget doesn't do anything in the film other than fly Dale to where he needs to be and banter a bit with him. She has a great deal of chemistry with him too, it makes me wonder if the Zipper relationship was necccersary when they could have just revealed she and Dale were married.

There's a good mix of 3D and 2D animation as well as live action, the 2D stuff leaves a little to be desired but the CGI is made to look bad completely on purpose. The whole story is about how the animation is twisted for dirty profit.

HA That's funny, I remember a time when the fans had shippers War between Gasket + Chip vs Gadjet + Dale.

Would have been funny if the later happened.

Weirdly enough where the movie falls can be explained in the movie through Sonic. Just because you are in on the joke doesn’t make it better when you do the thing. Just like in horror movies when they say something like “Have you never a horror movie before” and proceed to do the thing anyways isn’t really witty.

Also film is inconsistent.

Cgi surgery is a thing, but Lumiere is 2D. So is there like two Sonics in this world? You would think Ugly sonic would have gotten surgery to become new sonic. Considering how many characters don’t age it seems weird Peter is the only one that does.

Still sounds like cash grab and pander-fest.

Like, it coulda been...you know.... A Rescue Rangers movie. Or Roger Rabbit 2 to be honest.

I know people like to compare it to Spiderman, but it was still a Spider-Man movie. It wasn't about Spider-Man running around all the Disney properties with a keyblade.

If boomers had had internet they would've melted down just as much over Space Ghost being treated so poorly in Coast 2 Coast and how they should've used a new character

[Allio]

Honestly as a kid I didn’t care much for coast 2 coast. Guess I wasn’t really into that whole talk show.

Cool. Thanks for assuming my political affiliations. Funny how guys like you, on both sides of the delightful spectrum, accuse me of dragging in politics when you're the ones flinging accusations. I don't dislike this movie due to its politics, it looks like a braindead trash comedy full of memes. I honestly have a hard time believing this movie is legitimately 'sweet and heart warming' too.

Also, you can have fun without having to turn your brain off. Lots of people don't seem to understand that nowadays.

Waitwaitwaitwait...Gadget and Zipper? Really??

Yes.

I watched the first 32 minutes of this trash pile because I hate myself. Gadget and Zipper flirt briefly at the beginning of the movie, then later on, it's revealed they got married and had several half-mouse, half-fly abominations.

So funny.

[Leo656]

Sheeeeeeiiiiiit, if Gadget likes playing with Zippers so much she can come over and play with mine!

.......I'll see myself out.

No but seriously that was too good of a layup to waste.

Hey! I feel personally attacked. Ugly Sonic caught me completely off guard and made me laugh harder than it should have.

I'll give you that. Lumiere is 2D but Baloo and Pumbaa are CG upgrades (and Pumbaa was only done that way for a throwaway gag) but I was surprised by how much I did like the movie. Not great, but not as painful as I was expecting. I'll admit I was wrong.

I'm kinda surprised the song in all the promos wasn't in the actual film. Wish the other Rangers were in this movie more and feel it missed out not referencing the 50s era Chip 'n Dale instead making them kids in the early 80s.
