happycamper Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Yeah I liked it. Probably more "good" in it than the first movie. Needed to trim about 20 minutes out of the first hour but that's every movie lately Remember that every argument you have with someone on MWCboard is actually the continuation of a different argument they had with someone else also on MWCboard.

They pissed off all the closeted furry folk. Now look at em. Never +++++ the furries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SalinasSpartan Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 I thought it was ok, and I don’t mean that in a bad way. I saw it with my 5 year old and she asked me “who’s that” when Bugs Bunny first showed up. My response pretty much looked like this: By that I mean that was my facial expression, and that’s exactly how old I felt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll make money in the end, but the movie has gotten terrible reviews (4.3 on IMDB). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you might think about the merits of his thoughts on various subjects, he cannot be trusted on children’s movies. We’re all sitting in the dugout. Thinking we should pitch.

They have learned so much culture from old loony toons. Flintstones is great. Scooby Doo as well Boomerang is the only channel I miss with my streaming services.

But she saw the animated movie Scoob! on HBO Max that came out last year and loved it, watched it like 5 times the last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Care to elaborate on a princess with magical powers saving the land that her ancestors came from while her sister dodging boulders constitutes propaganda? Or maybe i just thought it was a cool movie for the kids and didn't take it seriously enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read the book because I heard this was coming out and had heard good things about the book. Didn't like it. Seems like a Star Wars vs. Tremors knockoff to me.

Project Hail Mary (same author as The Martian) is going to make a hell of a movie (in development starring Ryan Gosling). I bet a lot of the space nerds on this board would like those books.
