why did you go see the emoji movie, with your actual money being spent to do so
>>94232461
>>94232492
Someone had to take one for the teamand I was gonna get a camrip but I was right next to two very muscular fathers who took their little girls and decided against it.
>>94232478
>Anon I'm disappointed but not disappointed
thanks dad.
>>94232419
Is it true she was actually a princess emoji?
And that at some point she whistles for a twitter bird?
>>94232538
Yes and yes, and she rejects Eugene because "she's not waiting for a prince"
>>94232508
>Thanks dad
I was one of the dads that sat next to you. That's why I'm disappointed / not disappointed
>>94232566
Holy shit that's fucking retarded
Do they ever explain why do they have to make the same expression all the time rather than just when they're being scanned?
>>94232602I really hope a guy who's raising 2 little girls and has a Marine Corps tattoo doesn't browse /co/.
>>94232419
SHE DOESN'T OWE YOU SEX ANON
>>94232508
If you were going to make a camrip, go in the morning when no one is there. That's like common sense.
>>94232644
I tried to go at the 7 AM showing.they were sold out
Jailbreak makes my eggplant hard
Hey, OP is it true that some kid tells the main kid: “words aren’t COOL” which is why he should just use emojis?
Anyone who paid money to see this needs to be gassed. I don't care if it's ironic or you're pussywhipped and your wife wanted you to take her son to see it. Get that zyklon-b in your system and die.
>>94232730
Yeah. First few minutes.
>>94232735
I did it to inform you anons.
>>94232773
Okaaay...
Is it true he deletes an email of lyrics/poetry he wrote for his crush because of that?
And also that the
Wait so through the whole fucking film, she shows interests with him and she just rejects like a scum?
Was the rejection at least done in a funny way?
>>94232773
No excuse. Some other retard would have cam ripped it and it'd be all over the internet. Gas yourself.
>>94232419
So she was every generic female LI in animated movies ever, but then turned down the MC.
That's original in a way, I guess.
Did you like anything about it?
Like...anything at all?
>>94232566
>"she's not waiting for a prince"
Wow what a cunt, so is she a dyke?
>>94232538
This is a Wreck Ralph rip off.
They aren't even trying to hide it.
>>94232818
Yes. High five find it and that's what they use to figure out his crush's name.
Also the ending made absolutely no sensee.He goes to delete the data on his phone because of the glitching, but then Eugene sends himself to the girl and she likes him because he's "sensitive and shows his emotions" and so he all of a sudden decides NOT to wipe his phone and unplugs it at the phone store, making all the data instantly restored and everyone back together. The worst part is it's a plot point that he pirates, which is why a princess emoji became a hacker. They enter a "pirating app" that's a tavern with spam, trolls, and trojan horses. Why the fuck would he be confused by his phone glitching if he pirates and why would he risk taking it to the phone store.
>>94232852
They go to a just dance app and they dance together, and they lock eyes ans smile a lot. They go to spotify and ride the "waves" of some clam ambiance music, and she says she likes him just the way he is and invites him to join her on the cloud. Then they get to the cloud and she seems sad that she's about to reprogram him as a meh emoji, and he comes out and says he loves her, but she rejects him because "she's not waiting for a prince." And afterwards the scene and her feleings are never brought up again.
>>94232901
Sorry.
>>94232903
Fair enough, but it was still stupid.
>>94232912
I actually kind of cared about Jailbreak to a degree, and alsowanted to fuck her
>>94232931
Probably not, but she's a feminist and is mad emojis could only be princes and brides when she was first created.
>>94232538
According to wikipedia she became a "h4ck3r emoji" because people stereotyped her when she was a princess
I never grunted so loud and angry before

EWW
>>94232961
Yeah, I knew that was the ending, I was going to ask you about it but I clicked Post by accident
I was just reading from aTumblrpost about why the Emoji movie was shit and wanted to know if that was all actually true
Honestly the only thing that made me laugh about the film was imagining my phone as a ghetto with a massive unemployment rate because I never use emojis except sometimes the flags.
The only thing that made me laugh was a plot I made up in my head.

Were the meme emojis included?

The 100 emoji was part of the executive council if that counts.
The flag emojis were also there, with the Israeli flag seen more often than the others in view of the camera.
>>94232735
I'm pretty sure my friend is going to get paid to see it while watching somebody's kid sometime within the coming weeks.
>>94233069
>>94233118
>There's SJW garbage
Isn't Sony the ones who did female Ghostbusters? It's probably somebody in marketing who pushes for it, because I recall them trying to create controversy over it before the film launched.
It's because the kind of "feminism" that cares about emojis of all things is "hip with the kids" and the mentally retarded, who are frankly the target audiences for this movie.
>>94232961
>They go to a just dance app and they dance together, and they lock eyes ans smile a lot.

I skimmed through the Junior Novelization.
Apparently, in an earlier draft of the film, the movie was supposed to show that she was dating an emoji named Fist Bump, only to be revealed at the end that she broke up with him.
I should have taken pictures when I saw it at Walmart.
>>94233676
>I skimmed through the junior novelizTion
wee lad that's even funnier than paying to see it
>>94233734
What can I say? Just because there's a price tag on it, it doesn't mean that you have to buy it.
But yeah, the movie also apparently ends with emojis being animated.
>>94232508
>Someone had to take one for the team

No you didn't. Critics already went yesterday.

It actually makes sense. Kids are fucking dumb..
>>94233054
>>94233790
Honestly, the only way to salvage the concept of the film, that there is a city of emoji within your phone, is to apply the Multiverse Theory and examine how Textopolis differs across different phones based upon the phone's owner.
>>94233911
But that doesn't make any sense. He knows enough to get a skin for the pirating app, why would he not know he may get malfunctions because of it and that sending it to the phone store may be a bad idea until he deletes the piracy app.
>>94233376
Does the hand emoji make the ok sign?
No laughing and crying emoji?
No [B] emoji?
>Every app on every phone has all sorts of colourful characters in it
>The messaging app has the city of 'Textopolis' where emojis reside
>Once an emoji is old enough/ready they can work in their own cubicle where they have to make their assigned face when the phone owner selects them
>In this world, each emoji has only one facial expression, except Gene, our main character, who is supposed to be a Meh emoji but has a malfunction that lets him express all the other face emojis.
>Gene screws up his first day on the job due to his malfunction and was going to get deleted.
>he escapes and finds a High-Five emoji who tells him about how his malfunction can be fixed if they go to the piracy app find the emoji known as 'Jailbreak' who can 'hack' the malfunction out of him and make him a Meh emoji
>High Five goes on this journey with him in hopes of getting himself hacked and become one of the user's favorite emojis again
>They leave Textopolis and embark on a journey to the Piracy app, hidden in the Dictionary app, where the Jailbreak emoji, who turns out to be a girl, agrees to help them
>Meanwhile, the head of the cubicle emoji system, a female smile emoji sends out a group of deletion bots after them.
>Gene and the gang play Candy Crush and then Dance Dance Revolution in some blatant product placement,
>It is revealed that hacker emoji is a princess emoji who escaped bc princess stereotypes = harmful to women, High Five emoji gets deleted because the user deleted the Dance Dance Revolution app while they were in it
>Gene's parents go looking for him in the Youtube app where they watch the PPAP meme [YouTube] PIKOTARO - PPAP (Pen Pineapple Apple Pen) (Long Version) [Official Video] (embed), and later reconnect in the Instagram app where it is revealed that his father also has the malfunction but has learned to hide it.

This and the Ready Player One movie represent the final death of the internet as it once was. Its the final nail in the coffin.
>>94233768
This. They literally get paid to go see a shit movie and tell you it's shit so you don't have to waste your money.
>>94233937
'member the days of Ares when people wondered why their PC was virus ridden when they were only downloading music? Like that, as I said kids are fucking stupid, especially pseudo-hackers ones.
And if your phone glitch and you can't fix it you take it to the store or something, I don't see how that's an issue.
>>94233987
>>94233965
sequel bait
>>94233987
So how does Gene go from being permanently "meh" after being rejected to showing all the faces?
Does Jailbreak give him a BJ or something?

>>94233987
Oh my god its like the mirrorverse Lego Movie.
>>94233768
>trusting critics
Critics don't spoil the awful shit the movie does.
>>94233951
No, yes, and no.
>>94234043
It just seemed really fucking weird for him to take his phone to the store without deleting the piracy app first to see if that would fix things. Also, the "cancelling deletion last minute restores everything else" thing is bogus.
>>94234109
They come back to rescue him and his father reveals he can also change his emotions but had repressed it.
>>94234140
Well, if you're going to reset why bother deleting? Or the kid is just dumb which is more likely so he just gave up before trying anything.
And yeah, the info getting restored after the kid unplugs his phone sounds like pure unadulterated retard.
>>94232419

So like how Wildstyle was dating Batman? I remember reading that the Fist Bump was some big celebrity emoji.
>>94234464
I was going to say that in my post, but I forgot.
But yeah, it would be like that, but probably played straight.

>where it is revealed that his father also has the malfunction but has learned to hide it.
So is his malfunction a euphemism for him being gay
>>94234984
Probably.
And the message at the end of the film is that everybody would be happier if they were gay. Not just being able to express being gay or something that one might otherwise repress, but actually BEING gay.
>>94232508

>>94235191

I don't know where they were going with this, so in the end the parents are the ones who save the situation that jailbait nearly caused?
>>94235279
Yup, but she also partially helps by coming back to save him rather than just going into the cloud.
>>94232961
Jailbreak sounds like a cunt
So, what's the deal with the poop emojis? do they do anything at all?
>>94232419
Did Owo make a cameo?
It has always been my favourite
Bullshit.
So does the movie REALLY fight drumpf like they said it would?
The whole point of subversion of tropes is to help improve and add new ideas for storytelling. It's however NOT something that should be solely relied on. Subversion is a TOOL to help you write stories. If your subversion ends up making your heroes, (who are SUPPOSED to be people you look up to and root) unintentionally look like utter cunts and not in a good way that's cool, YOU HAVE FAILED. See also, Michael Bay Transformers making Optimus look like a genocidal maniac.
>>94235317
They give an excuse to pay for Patrick Stewart, but othet than that, nothing.
>>94235441
But that's under "The protagonists are always heroes" mentality.
>>94233150
>>94233172
>Only 2 good pics of character

Jailbreak is CUTE
>>94235495
I seriously doubt the marketers made the conscious decision to make their protagonists who are heroes intentional irredeemable cunts, since this IS a kids movie after all.
This isn't Sausage Party.
>>94235495
The people who wrote the Emoji movie don't care enough to be THAT clever for their writing.
>>94235441
Bayformers Optimus is super likeable though.
It's refreshing as hell having a hero who puts the bad guys down without hesitation.
>>94235034
Even if we're on 4chan we're not THAT autistic, nobody cares about your shitty e-celeb.

>>94235625

>>94234172
That's actually kind of cool.
I want to fuck that little red wagon.
>>94234041
Considering the Rotten Tomatoes reviews from Thursday and the trailers, it was a huge red flag.
You don't give the benefit of the doubt to garbage.
>>94234125
Film critics aren't always on the money, but they're still better at gauging a movie's enjoyability than other forms of media.
>>94235875
This. Film critics aren't infallible (see also Ghostbusters debacle) but they're still better than oh say...Game reviewers.
>>94235875
Don't forget that they are told NOT to release the reviews until AFTER the movie comes out. No advanced reviews to promote the movie. Even Ghostbusters had THAT.
Would you fuck her

>>94232955
Vanellope ripoff seems to be more so the mc though with the whole glitch thing.
>>94232419
I have to say, even though it sounds like it was executed very poorly in a way that probably made no sense and communicated nothing of value to the audience, the basic idea of the main character confessing his feelings to his love interest co star, only to be immediately flat out rejected and then allowed to move on without them getting together, is something I don't see a lot and would kind of appreciate in more stuff. Considering how formulaic the rest of the movie looks I'm surprised they even went that route, though disappointed they clearly botched it.
Too bad it can't make up for even a fraction of the stuff clearly wrong with this movie, and this is probably going to be one of those things we'll see even less if this movie doesn't do well because it's one of those kinds of details suits in charge would pick to blame failure on instead of the movie's actual shortcomings.
Anybody know other, better /co/ stuff where the main character doesn't get with their love interest?
>>94238661
He means Just Dance
>>94238933
They can steal more than one thing from a single character and then split it up to apply to multiple characters and still be ripping it off.
>middle finger emoji never made it into the movie
That would've been a good opportunity for jokes, strategically placing things in front of the offending finger or framing shots in a way that it isnt visible and we can only tell what it is from the other characters reactions. They already had crude humor, might as well have included some that wouldve made me chuckle.
>>94232966

It's a combination of three movies that were successful and well liked
>Inside Out
>Lego movie
>Wreck it Ralph
All those movies involve our heroes going on a journey through multiple worlds, while being in contact with the human world (Emotions of a kid, logo toys of will Ferrell, video games in arcade). What emoji movie does is it takes themes from each movie and mashed them all together into a bland mess. I'll list them here and feel free to add.
>emojis have an impact on the human world (all three)
>human kid dealing with problems (inside out, lego movie)
>edgy punk girl (lego movie)
>actually a princess twist (wreck it Ralph)
>on a quest through weird worlds (all three)
>emotions are a critical plot point (inside out)
>references to old stuff (wreck it ralph, Lego movie)
>stop the electronic your own from dying (wreck it Ralph)
>large cast of quirky individuals voiced by celebrities (Lego movie)
>outcast MC (Ralph)
>big city for establishing the world to the audience (lego movie)
>villain targets mc for being different (Ralph)

>>94239322

The problem is they clearly built up tension and she encouraged him all the way as though she was trying to maneuver him into confessing, but then rejected him when he did. In all probability this was a last minute change forced by their suits.

...Which one did they go with in the movie?
>>94239444
Eh... maybe wacky slapstick for about one to two minutes. No voices. Just physical comedy.
Even then, it's still just a maybe.
>>94239340
The Weird Alien Finger Puppet Movie?
>>94239343
Exactly. If this were any OTHER movie, it might have been unique if it were written as if the main character perceived her to send those signals. But in this movie, it comes less as having a good message for women and more of a middle finger to the audience. Like promising the audience a carrot only to give them a punch in the face.
