Horton Hears a Who

Nicky · 03-17-2008, 04:02 PM

Pretty much the greatest feel-good movie ever. I probably liked it because it was barely even a kid movie.

I would recommend it. For this scene, if nothing else.

Ryu-Nacho · 03-17-2008, 05:32 PM

That reminded me of Jimmy Chow, but more kid friendly. I definitely have to see this movie now.

MeTal CaNdYcaNe · 03-17-2008, 06:27 PM

Well that was disappointing. They have completely ruined one of my childhood favorites. Good job, writers.

Nicky · 03-17-2008, 07:29 PM

... that was only one scene. It actually is a good movie. They changed it around only in the way that The Grinch was changed.

MeTal CaNdYcaNe · 03-17-2008, 07:31 PM

Mhmmmmm.

I can't legitimately say anything until I actually see it, but have you ever seen the original?

Nicky · 03-17-2008, 07:32 PM

Yup.

Just... I guess, so you'll be prepared. This movie is more of an adult movie disguised as a children's movie, like The Grinch was. It's still basically a kid movie, but it has a lot of smart/"subtle" humor that educated teenagers and parents will get. Though the kids in my theater seemed to get it just fine. Children and adults were laughing interchangeably.

I liked the redo of the Grinch. It was kinda like how they changed Charlie and the Chocolate factory, to fit now. I'll always love my originals.

Nicky · 03-17-2008, 08:21 PM

Yeah... as funny as the remakes are they never give you that pure nostalgic feeling. But what do I know... I'm only sixteen years old. This one'll probably give me that too one day.

Agh! I HATED the Grinch remake. Worst movie ever. And the seen with him as a kid being made fun of? Fucking most depressing/scary ass shit I ever saw in my life. Pyscho furry green kids are scary.

Exactly. It's not that "I remember those days" sort of thing.

You know its true. The Grinch remake was a piece of shit. And it had a freaky scene where the Grinch went psycho with scissors as a small furry child.

Sen · 03-19-2008, 06:28 AM

Yea. That shit gave me nightmares.

Ryu-Nacho · 03-19-2008, 04:20 PM

I just saw Horton Hears a Who. That the was the worst ending I've ever seen.

Nicky · 03-19-2008, 07:20 PM

I guess I agree with you that they did go a little Shrek there at the end, but I still like the movie.
