My version is better

If you've ever read and enjoyed the books, you will love this movie.

If you've never read the books, probably not so much.

>>93086930
No. I loved the books as a child, but when I went back to read it I said,
>Wtf is this garbage?
>And I threw them away like a dumb-ass.

>>93086930
Fantastic.

>need to wait a month for the release

thanks, whoever is in charge of this.

I went and saw it a couple days ago and I loved it. Animation looked great, didn't really go for cheap gross-out jokes like you would've expected it to, making it really funny even for someone older like me. It's been a long long time since I've read the books so I didn't feel very much nostalgia like other people have. Really good movie though, but not for everyone.

Is nobody going to mention Loss in George's hand?

>two months for me
>others have to wait till august or fall
What
the fuck
were they thinking?

>>93086930
I certainly thought so. It actually felt like it was made by talented people who put care and effort into it. It also did a good job of maintaining the spirit of the books.

I loved the books when I was a kid, so nostalgia is a huge factor in how much one enjoys it, I think. If you didn't grow up with the books, I don't know if you'll enjoy it as much, but I'd argue it's still a good movie.

Too bad it bombed

I never read the books and I loved it.

Or rather I haven't read the books in a looooong time and remember nothing about them.

>>93092605
They probably want to show the movie when all the kids are on summer vacation.

>cartoony style with hyper-realistic hair and fabrics etc
shit gives me uncanny valley vibes for some reason

>the comic in George's hand
!!!!!

>>93088169
This is all I needed to hear. I'll see if my kid brother is interested so I don't feel as goofy seeing it myself

>>93086930
>loss is in a big budget movie aimed for children
what a time to be alive

>>93092956
Same shit as the Earthbound kids on Smash Bros

>>93086930
The only thing that was weird to me was that I didn't once hear Melvin say "You guys are so immature". The one thing I distinctly remember from the books is that that was basically like his catchphrase

>>93093162
it's fake

>>93086930
I went to see it on Tuesday with a couple friends.
One of them loved it, so did I.
The other guy walked out because he hated how all the adults were being portrayed as too mean-spirited.

>>93093232
:(

>>93093208
>This is George Beard and Harold Hutchins. George is the kid on the left with the flat top and tie. Harold is the kid on the right with the t-shirt and bad haircut. Remember that now.

Every book opened with that so it surprises me that it wasn't used in the movie. That and a couple other running jokes in the narration could've easily been incorporated into George and Harold's fourth wall breaking. Missed opportunity.

It doesn't seem to have finished it's release if this thread is any indication.

>>93092753
There's too many bigger movies competing against it. I bet once it hits Netflix, it'll get more popular.

Your friend sounds like a huge stick-in-the-mud.
