Patrick Stewart's career is finished. What a to go.

 

[buttery fistful]

at the first sighting of her favorite rainbow-colored icon, a little girl behind me cried out, adoringly, “It’s Instagram!” A new age of heroes is born.

lol kids are dumb

 

[Puck Beaverton]

how likely is it this is successful?

90%?

 

[Altazor]

hey kids, always recycle...

TO THE EXTREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEME

from the AV Club review:



Good. Lord. I kinda want to see this just for the cringe factor.

Christ.

At the IMAX theatre in Seattle, there's a little "thanks to the Science Center donors" reel that plays. It's aerial shots of the city and voice-over goes "Seattle, center of innovation" or whatever and then a bunch of voices call out Seattle companies. "Boeing! Microsoft! Paccar! Amazon!" etc.

It sounds like they just took that but then decided "what if instead of a forty second thing, we make it a full movie".

 

[Pai Pai Master]

Give poop rights back to marvel

 

[Gitaroo]

I hope this only cost 5 bucks to make

Patrick Stewart's career is finished. What a to go.

He's still got American Dad.

 

[Order]

Oh yes.

I'mma need to hear Korey and Martin and ESPECIALLY Girtz on this garbage fire right here tonight.

Glorious.

I'll be seeing it soon 😥

They didn't get a screening so the soonest we'll the review is Sunday

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Don't take your kids to see this.

Humanity must fight this.

 

[Sou Da]

Fucking Crackle shows up? Good lord.

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

That'd be worse than Raul Julia in the Street Fighter movie (which at least is campy fun-bad, instead of just crass bad-bad like this seems to be).

I dunno, Raul Julia looks like he's having the time of his life in Street Fighter.

 

[Biggest-Geek-Ever]

It's currently sitting pretty at a 10 on Metacritic, aka the 10177th best reviewed film of all time!

LAAAAAAAME

 

[DecoReturns]

I like how the OP's last thread was about one of the highest rated movies of the year to now one of the lowest.

 

[Lightning_Roller]

Emoji movie is ass, you say? Quell surprise.

 

[Puck Beaverton]

I welcome our postmodern dystopia

 

[commedieu]

The Poochie of movies? Jesus Christ.

LOL

 

[SexyFish]

Yikes. I just bought some 3D tickets for a showing tonight, gonna take one of my sons.

You're taking the son you hate, right?

 

[OmegaSmash]

Isn't Sony Pictures also doing the live action Sonic movie?

 

[Shaanyboi]

I love how every actor interviewed on a late night talk show about this sounds like they're disappointed their career has come to this. Like they don't even shy away from making fun of it.

 

[StoopKid]

lol Sony pictures always fucking up.

 

[Jackpot]

Yikes. I just bought some 3D tickets for a showing tonight, gonna take one of my sons.

Which of your sons do you hate?

Also a 3D version of this sounds so depressing.

from the AV Club review:



Good. Lord. I kinda want to see this just for the cringe factor.

So the Twitter bird is this movie's Eagles from LOTR. Amazing.

 

[RoyaleDuke]

The Poochie of fucking movies wow what a dumpster fire.

And TJ Miller was pretty hyped about this movie, praising it.

At least this sounds kind of interesting!

 

[El Topo]

Patrick Stewart's career is finished. What a to go.

Better than the last movie Sean Connery did. Click here to see the abomination that is Sir Billi. Mind you, I'm sure (and hope) neither Connery nor Stewart care.

 

[Rodney McKay]

I dunno, Raul Julia looks like he's having the time of his life in Street Fighter.

Oh, of course! And he was definitely the highlight of that movie.

And I give props to Patrick Stewart, I bet he got a very decent paycheck for a few days of work playing a literal piece of shit, haha.

 

[Penguin]

It's currently sitting pretty at a 10 on Metacritic, aka the 10177th best reviewed film of all time!

Better not be an contrarian who gives it a super positive score, Armond!

I've not watched a 0% movie on RT in such a long time!

 

[Plesiades]

Another Sony Pictures classic.

 

[mreddie]

It's a kids movie, I'd bet on it still getting a good return. Despite being a fucking abomination.

You forget Cars 3 just stalled and Smurfs tanked.

 

[SpaceWolf]

Donald Trump is President of the United States, fertility rates are plummeting and the Emoji movie is about to come out.

Swell.

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

I think his reviews got kicked off RT again.

You forget Cars 3 just stalled and Smurfs tanked.

Wow, I didn't know Smurfs released already.

 

[Draper]

We're in the iphone/ ipad generation.


I still think this movie is gonna make bank

 

[Akuun]

from the AV Club review:

Good. Lord. I kinda want to see this just for the cringe factor.

It sounds like this movie already made money from product placement deals alone.

 

[Kthulhu]

Donald Trump is President of the United States, fertility rates are plummeting and the Emoji movie is about to come out.

Swell.

Also the Great Barrier Reef is dying and antibiotics resistance will soon potentially end modern medicine as we know it.

 

[Phrozenflame500]

Phase 1 of the iPhone Cinematic Universe is not off to a good start

This is a film that seems beamed from a near future in which nothing goes right; “words,” as the kids in the film agree, “aren’t cool” anymore; and Patrick Stewart making jokes about soft shits is the new prestige TV. But what do I know? At my screening, which was for both press and a handful of unfortunate families, at the first sighting of her favorite rainbow-colored icon, a little girl behind me cried out, adoringly, “It’s Instagram!” A new age of heroes is born.

D:

So it's like Read Player One for kids, then.

 

[number11]

These reviews actually makes me wanna see it now. Surely it has to be one of those it's so bad it's good right?

 

[DecoReturns]

There's was another Smurfs movie?

 

[explodet]

Patrick Stewart's career is finished. What a to go.

 

[BatDan]

Reminder: Sony killed Genndy's Popeye movie in favor of this.

At least it got us Samurai Jack's conclusion but still.

Sony, why does everything you touch turn to trash?

 

[Rockandrollclown]

While it would probably be great for the movie industry and humanity in general for this to fail, this may be review proof. Just worked on a user's computer and everyone in the cubicles sounded very excited for this movie.

 

[Beefy]

Will still be better then King Arthur

 

[digitalrelic]

I’m not making things for wannabe intellectual hipsters complaining on Reddit. I’m doing The Emoji Movie for people en masse.

 

[Wolfe]

Pretty sure they weren't, no.

Yeah that reply and then all the people quoting it got me like "uhhh huh."

 

[Alex_Mexico]

11 rotten reviews in and still no Tomatometer? How many does a movie need before they display the score in RT?

EDIT: 12 rottens now, still no tomatometer! I wanna see that 0%
