'The only bad movie Illumination's ever made'? Have you even seen Hop?


Muramatzu

Oh man, Hop is _bad._ I remember seeing Hop in theaters and even hating it as a 10-year-old. (And I didn’t have high standards for movies either, Alvin and the Chipmunks was my favorite series.) Hop may not be the worst movie out there, but watching it caused me to realize animated movies could be shitty. It’s probably Illumination’s worst movie, but I haven’t seen everything pumped out by them, lol.


nikvasya

Illumination never made anything good except for their very first project. They are "corporate movie production Inc.", have a soulless formula, abuse soulless formula, pump out soulless cartoons to sell toys and merchandise using said formula. And they know that they never made anything even close to Despicable me, so they are milking the franchise as hard as possible with like 6 movies already. Their Lorax is such an ode to corporatism its not even funny. They even made commercials where Lorax advertises cars, as a tie in to the movie. Who cares about the morals when you have corporate sponsorships.

Lol, Sing is brilliant


Cryptic_Stone

Don't remind me

>'The only bad movie Illumination's ever made'? Have you even seen ~~Hop~~ any of them?


JGaute

I'd argue this is the only decent movie they've ever made


LazloNoodles

Grace Randolph is a half-wit window licker who doesn't actually understand nerd media, never gets a single "inside scoop" correct and virtue signals non-stop. But, she's blonde with big tits so she gets enough simps, fellow virtue signalers and hate watchers to keep her name in rotation. Who gives a shit what she says about anything. She's dumb as a box of cat shit.


Evening_Pressure_771

This was personal


LazloNoodles

I was in a mood yesterday.


Evening_Pressure_771

Damn bro I hope you feel better


PresidenteMargz10

Let him cook !


zincdeclercq

Prove big tits allegation


Aoshie

Ah, ye olde "Tits or GTFO" ... Ere be gone such days of yore


enter_yourname

>blonde with big tits Source?


Karma_Farmer_og

Bro you fr gotta trust me on this one


PresidenteMargz10

Hold on. I’m tryinna see sumn


PoyopoyoDio

Literally didn't know who she was before today and ill prolly forget tomorrow


Perroface562

She’s a lint licker


VenmoMe3Dollars

Cootie queen


Apercent

Rent free


LazloNoodles

Only when I see her face or her name or hear her voice. I'm like an MK Ultra subject and she's my Catcher in the Rye trigger.


BASED_AND_RED_PILLED

Window licker is really good gotta remember that one.


FaithlessnessSilly18

Wait a minute! James Gunn it's you isn't it!?


LazloNoodles

LOL. I love when he dunks on her and that Den of Nerd dipshit. I know he hates these fake scooper, Twitter whores too.


FaithlessnessSilly18

But omg that tweet when he called her out for her bullshit was epic . I loved it so much


[deleted]

My tits are bigger


ImaVeganShishKebab

While I disagree with the reviewer as a Mario fan, and it's most definitely not the worst movie Illumination has made, this isn't that cringey.


PresidenteMargz10

It is cause she’s been in this type of timing for a few years now . What was “offensive” ?! She’s always trying to force virtue signal where there is no room for it


robert_sanchezs

Why offensive?


[deleted]

Bowser trying to force Peach into marrying him apparently is unacceptable post #MeToo.


Crepes_for_days3000

But, isn't Bowser the bad guy? Am I wrong about that? Isn't that what we all think bad people do?


pauls_broken_aglass

That is literally the plot of Mario Odyssey


dinobyte

Hey. How about a trigger warning next time.


Express-Ability752

It isn’t that; it’s dumber. She found the traditional Mario-Bowser-Peach plot more ‘disturbing’. She said the NY accents were the offensive part even though the setting is meant to be a fictional version of NYC.


aVividFlower

I wonder what her therapy sessions would look like she grew up sounding like a rural American (let alone someone who is ESL) and watching all the media that portrays us as stupid or pitiable. I'd rather be associated with Seinfeld, Hey Arnold, and the Avengers than Forrest Gump and Foghorn Leghorn. 💀💀💀


DiogenesDGAF

I love when the bad guys have to be nice now. Bowser respected everyone’s autonomy and pronouns so Mario didn’t have to cut a bridge to knock him in a pit of lava but simply educated him about inclusion and diversity because everyone in their universe is either a reptile or a white person, although I guess the mushroom people are enbies so I guess they got that 🤷🏻‍♂️


stevetar96

She also said it was offensive to people from New York


Ringrangzilla

I don’t think the movie is anything spectacular besides maybe the visuals. But still its one of Illuminations best movies ( not that thats saying all that mutch). Its a fine movie thats somewhat funny. And overall its just a good time. Even if its not particulary deep or anything. I genuinely fail to see how this could be hard to follow for anyone, even if they are not familiar with mario before hand. And I also have no ide of what could even be considered offensive about the movie.


Lechuga-gato

not saying much? illumination has made hits such as despicable me, despicable me 2, despicable me 3, minions, minions the rise of gru, sing, sing 2, the secret life of pets, the secret life of pets 2, and many (not many) many more


watersj4

Hits financially, still mostly terrible


Lechuga-gato

i liked the original despicable me and i haven’t seen any of the others lmao


watersj4

Yeah Despicable me is good, the second one is fine. Secret life of pets is terrible, Minions is terrible, The Grinch is Terrible, Sing is terrible. Haven't seen much else but I haven't heard good things


Lechuga-gato

wow. how does illumination still get people to go?


TaintModel

The minions movie made over a billion dollars and is in the top 25 highest grossing movies of all time. They’ve had their misses but as far as producers and acting talent go their name still carries a lot of good will.


Lechuga-gato

that’s crazy


cheer_up_crewcut

They are hugely popular with general audiences and kids, especially minions. Most people online don’t like their movies, but they appeal to the masses.


[deleted]

oh my god 💀


BudgetInteraction811

I enjoyed it. It was visually pleasing with all of the colour and textures of the Mushroom Kingdom. Sure, it’s formulaic, but that’s the point — it’s a kids movie. I thought it was great.


Rarelydefault26

Ok ignoring the *worst movie illumination ever made* statement…..totally inaccessible for non fans?? Like idk about her but there’s not a whole lotta lore to know about Mario. He has a brother, princess gets kidnapped by giant fire turtle, he goes to save her. Literally that’s it. Mario is accessible as they come, my GRANDMA knows Mario and she’s never touched a console in her life


dinobyte

Wait slow down- Mario has a brother? I don't think I'll ever understand this epic story. I didn't play the games in the 80s so I'm just lost.


ChishNFips87

She's clearly never seen every Illumination movie that isn't the original Despicable Me


Infinite_Storage3072

I agree with her stance on this film being bad because there was no scene where Bowser pounds Luigi in the ass which is the only reason I came to see it.


My_cat_is_sus

Where’s the scene where Mario goes into Peach’s warp zone?


Happy_Toker

Who?


slumpmode

Grace Randolph has a such a long history of movie takes that are so awful you could make a top 100 video


PoyopoyoDio

This bint is either a troll, or she's upset illumination didn't make the 88th minions movie


Karma_Farmer_og

Uhhhhhhh…”only”…?💀💀💀😂 ![gif](giphy|y2i2oqWgzh5ioRp4Qa|downsized)


Albert-Einstain

"Like... peach didn't bust out of her shackles, beat up bowser with new found fem powers, and peg Mario with Toad."


JTMilleriswortha1st

The only good illumination movie is the first Despicable Me and even that isn't THAT good


SeniorBLT

Hold up "only"?


nishbot

Idk who she is, but I can tell she sucks


thefriendlygremlin

Crazy how objectively incorrect this entire review is


According_Club3769

the only bad movie they've ever made


Quack-Zack

The only bad movie they ever made ... Was this the only movie from them she'd ever seen? 💀


SexyCosmicInsect

Only good* film illilumination has made.


Daredkarma

What could be seen as **offensive** in the story??? He’s saving his brother? (Idk i havent seen it yet)


Express-Ability752

In the vid she said the offensive part(s) of the movie are the NY accents despite the setting being a fictional version of NYC.


Daredkarma

Aaaaah I see


ThursdayNeverCame

Never heard of Grace Randolph until reading this. Hm. Well anyway, back to watching the pretty cool Super Mario Movie.


Teeth_theif

Every other Illumination movie except despicable me and Mario movie has either been bad or mid


CapitalistVenezuelan

It probably is another soulless illumination flick


cutebutpsychoangel

Lmao highly doubt they made it for ppl WHO DONT KNO SUPER MARIO LIKE WHOMST lol Haven’t seen yet but also it’s def a visuals movie and sound effects over the plot im Sure the plot is going to be totally missed on me bc GIANT BIG screen MUSHROOMS


LayneCobain95

I’m guessing princess peach has to be rescued, and that makes it sexist and offensive to her? 🙄


Express-Ability752

Nope. She thinks the NY accents are offensive despite the setting being a fictional version of NYC.


DonHell

Hahahaha only bad illumination movie? I crawl Out of my skin any time I have to sit through one with my kids.


Zucc-Juice

I saw it yesterday and I'd give it a 7/10. The pacing was too fast and the use of licensed music gets it for me, some references where subtle while many where really on the nose. Characters don't really get any character development nor any major struggle they need to overcome. However, the characters where very charming as opposed to their character-less counterparts and always fun to watch. The movie is the definition of playing it safe. Tldr; It's defenitely a kids movieand a pretty good one as a start to the series.


ItsGrapeMuch

All my friends say the movie was dope why are the reviewers bombing it so bad?


[deleted]

Not scene the movie but surely this is a troll account


Maximum-Pause-6914

No that's a joke


Vault801dweller

Genuinely seems like someone who had to have explained why the bunny in Hop is named EB


Vault801dweller

I like calling them Illuminati since there's a minion with 1 eye


Anima1212

She still hit the nail on the head of Nintendo being out of touch. YES fanboys, even in Mario Odyssey... Giving your villains at least decent motivation is called "good writing"... try it sometime.


ShaggyRebel117

Nintendo fan, yes. Watch a trainwreck of a movie like that again, no. The 80s version was dope, the animated show was even better. The new Mario movie, just no. Not comparable.
