I just don't know what went wrong
>>95056579
There was a Jem movie? Shit, must of happened when I was on deployment. I guess it sucked huge dragon cock.
>>95056579
Try watching the movie and you'll understand exactly what went wrong in it. Which was everything.
>>95056579
>I just don't know what went wrong
Really? You can't grasp that a movie company known for shoe-string budget films bought the rights to make a movie of an 80s cartoon on the cheap, and only used it's name and recognition to make a generic band movie?

>Really? You can't grasp that a movie company known for shoe-string budget films bought the rights
Wasn't it made by the movie company Hasbro actually owns, Allspark pictures? You know, Allspark, as in Transformers
>>95056579
No Misfits
>>95056579
Um, where do I even begin.
>songs sucked
>no misfits
>and thus, you get no lesbian Stormer and Kimber
>51N3RG.Y....fucking really
I could go on all night, but I got to get some sleep.
>>95057038
No. Farmed out to Blumhouse. The Paranormal Activity guys.
I had to turn it off a few minutes into it because it was this unappealing found footage thing
>>95057720
>farmed out to Blumhouse
That's hilarious. Clearly the guys behind The Purge and Insidious are your best choice to produce a Jem movie.
A production company who's never given a budget over ten million dollars. Perfect choice for a fucking Jem movie.

>Everyone says Death NOte was a shitty adaptaion
>Never seen jem
>>95058041
Death Note was at least an honest attempt to make something. Even if it failed, it failed with effort.
Jem gets no point.
>>95058041
Death Note is at least about a Death Note and killing people with a Death Note
I don't even know what this movie was trying to be. It had characters with the same name but absolutely nothing else.
>>95056579
Jem is truly outrageous.
This movie was exceedingly mundane.
>>95058068
>I don't even know what this movie was trying to be
Josie and the Pussycats with all the jokes taken out.
>>95056579
Yeah, it's a mystery.
>>95057998
Actually, they gave it to Jon M. Chu to direct. He was behind Step Up 2: The Streets. If anyone was going to make a dumb but unironically fun Jem movie, I'd put money on him.
>>95056579
People who didn't watch the cartoon made the movie.
>>95057293
Well, they WERE in like the last minute of film. Clearly setting up a sequel that would never exist
Should we just admit that they're the EA of toy companies?
>>95059080
They've had a lot of crap, but still more quality in numbers regarding multimedia than any other toy company, and arguably more successful
The only thing Mattel has going for it these days is Monster High, which has a pretty niche fandom compared to Hasbro's reaction to it which was Equestria Girls
Then you have Playmates which...yeah the only thing they have is Ninja Turtles, which in it's prime was a bigger craze than Transformers ever was but those days have long since passed, Bayformers get sequel after sequel while the attempt to revive TMNT in movies failed
>>95058068
They just kind of took the basic concepts of "girl with dead dad discovers scifi tech from dead dad and becomes popstar with sister" and tried to turn it into a Disney Original Movie tier bore fest
>>95059206
Just because they're profiting, doesn't make them good.
Hence the EA comparison.
>>95060211
Well, I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about....are you talking about toys, or multi media? Because either way the argument can still be made they're ahead of their competition
Compare the number of well received shows or even beloved shows put out by Hasbro to the number associated with Mattel or Playmates
>>95056579
No Misifits.
>>95056679
it came out in like 2014
>>95056579
>you take an interesting and unique property.
>strip everything that made it unique to update it.
>you rape it's soul by kiddiefying it.
>deage the man characters to tweens.
>give it a budget that is laughable.
>written by a autist or something
and you expected it to fucking work?
>>95063822
It was a good movie
>>95065262
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA- No.
>>95065262

>>95065262
For who?
Not for the fans of the original show, because it had nothing to do with it.
Not for 80's style fans, since it was set in current years and the girls look more like Katy Perry wannabes than anything.
Not for rock band movie fans, because of how unremarkably boring it was.
Not for perverts, because the actresses were bland looking in both face and body.
Not even for hologram fans, because the movie didn't actually have any.
So who exactly could this movie be good for?
>>95056579
>ywn never get a Jem meets Bubblegum Crisis movie
>>95056579
I don't know. Try everything.
>>95065810
If there was ever a time for that to happen, it has long passed.
