Jem

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Has a cast.

My wife is thrilled about this movie. I find her excitement to be outrageous.

In that picture I imagined the first 3 of them looking for a contact lens that the 4th one lost.

Doing so badly that Universal is pulling it from theaters.
But it's safe to say that the "Jem and the Holograms" franchise has flatlined.


Is it?

Many critics noted that it wasn't true to the TV show, basically alienating core fans.

With a reported budget of only $5 million and obviously little promotion


That right there is everything wrong with Hollywood. They make a movie about an established property and change everything so it has very little in common with the established property, alienate any fans the established property has, make it for peanuts (A $5 million dollar movie? Kevin Smith films cost more!), and then don't promote it. So, of course, when it fails they blame the property, not their own ignorant decisions.
