silentbob Posted February 15, 2022 Posted February 15, 2022 I love Samburg and Mulaney but the voices are throwing me off for the characters. Still it is new RR and looks like it has a bit of an adult take, which could be great for the older audience that grew up on this stuff. Love the badmouthing at the end on CGI. Plus we saw the return of Roger Rabbit too Quote
Keyser_Soze Posted February 15, 2022 Posted February 15, 2022 Seems like a strange movie and not necessarily a Rescue Rangers movie. Quote

Kamusha Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 I respect it for being a different take rather than another boring live action remake by Disney. But will it work? I honestly don’t know. Quote
Reputator Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 Ohhh I get it! It's clever because it's meta! Quote
chakoo Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 Growing up on RR, this really looks like shit. 1 Quote
Derek Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 Aside from the dance group, I was never much into Chip N' Dale, but this piques my interest. Quote
Kamusha Posted February 16, 2022 Posted February 16, 2022 More adaptations should be irreverent towards the IP. The original episodes will always be there for those who need a proper fix of nostalgia. 1 Quote

The whole point of these reboots is for fun “wink wink nod nod” trips down memory lane. Quote

You could take what they have here put a different skin on it and it would be the same movie just without a recognizable name to rope people in. Like you could call this The Wizard of Oz and it really wouldn't change anything. Quote

It would have to be an animated nostalgia property to make it work. I think Chip and Dale is a good choice for this kind of commentary because they are recognizable enough for people my age but not something people are precious enough to get upset over. Or, at least I assumed people wouldn't be precious about them. Personally I'm not bothered, even a little bit, and I loved the cartoon as a kid. Quote

They are ragging CG animation but clearly Chip is also CG. Quote

That's like saying that Deadpool can't poke fun at superhero movies even though it is a superhero movie itself. Quote

I'm really scratching my head at why they can't make fun of CGI if Chip is CGI. It's supposed to be self-aware and meta. You're allowed to not think it's funny, but I don't understand what's not to get. Quote

It's not a meta joke though. Dale talks about how he got a new CG look. Which isn't really that funny. But Chip has a CG look just not as fancy but as far as the movie goes it's not supposed to be a CG look. Quote

Kamusha Posted February 17, 2022 Posted February 17, 2022 This movie might not be aimed at those who know the difference between Chip and Dale. Quote
Kal-El814 Posted February 18, 2022 Posted February 18, 2022 Seems pretty fucking weird to set Rescue Rangers to Saweetie and Doja Cat but whatever I guess. Quote
silentbob Posted April 27, 2022 Author Posted April 27, 2022 This movie is going to be amazing when I get stoned 😂 Quote
Emblazon Posted May 8, 2022 Posted May 8, 2022 My two favorite Disney characters. If only I could get a full copy of The Adventures of Chip n Dale. Quote
Keyser_Soze Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 Wow, look what made an appearance in this movie Spoiler Quote
silentbob Posted May 21, 2022 Author Posted May 21, 2022 I watched and if you were a fan of the cartoon series, it is an easy recommend. They have taken the Roger Rabbit formula and cranked it to 11 for cartoon characters. Some of these actors also take a few personal nudges/punches for a good joke too. I would love a reboot to happen but if not, wait until the end of the movie, I’ll take that in a heartbeat Quote
Spork3245 Posted May 21, 2022 Posted May 21, 2022 This was amazing. I was surprised by the cameos in it, they went full Roger Rabbit Spoiler Okay, no WB characters that I noticed, but Randy from South Park, Pickle Rick, “Ugly” Sonic, Beavis & Butthead, dreamworks characters, etc. Quote
