Small pet peeve regarding a part I actually liked: When she was hosting her own show and debuted in her half polka dot dress, I know it was for the audience's benefit to go "gasp, did she actually do it, skin the dogs and wear them as her coat?" but I felt it was ridiculous that the newspapers in-universe automatically leapt to that conclusion instead of the less psychopathic "oh, she made a spotted dress"

Automatically leaping to the conclusion that it was dog, a dalmatian, just makes the people who infer that seem like psychopaths.

I don't know how ubiquitous dalmatian dogs are meant to be but I personally have never seen a dalmatian in my life, and only know of their existence because of the old disney cartoon, so if I see a spotted dress, I just think it's a spotted pattern dress, not "oh it must be the skin of this random breed of dog"

Oh my lol. You don't even need to see the final product to have realized it was gonna be a piece of crap.

I thought it was a great movie. Emma Stones acting was phenomenal and the costume designs were great.

The set and design was pretty good. I really liked emma stone's red hair beatnik look, very art deco/60s era.

The whole ridiculous costumes thing was fascinating too, it definitely reinforced the devil wears prada feel

And yeah I definitely liked emma stone, I thought I would as soon as it was announced years ago, and I did.

If Cruella gave the Pongo and the female as puppies to the respective families, does that mean they were the babies of the Dalmatians? If so, isnt that dog incest on the 101 Dalmatians movie?

That was low-key weird. It felt like they were doing the whole midcredits thing of Marvel. We really didn't need that scene.

And we didn't really need to see Roger as a spineless ineffectual lawyer in this. What bothers me about these villain origins movies is the need to take away from the protagonists of the previous movies to to make the villain seem better. That's not needed at all.

However, I was totally into the idea of seeing Anita Darling and the idea of her and Cruella being friends, we could have totally seen more of that and how they were friends during kids, and how they become estranged through adulthood over time. But oh well what we got was ok too

Anyway the movie was alright. I actually had fun watching it.

I had a feeling I might. 3/4 years ago when I first found out they were making a Cruela movie, I was like "huh, I might actually watch this" and having emma stone's name attached to it only made me more interested.

Lol I hope they make the dalmations the bad guys

I guess they do, they "killed" her mother lol.

Like 99% of Disney's live action garbage: *Criiiinge*

Why is her white hair portrayed as something such a big deal besides a "huh" reaction at best

I still like Emma Stone though so... plus this was the only villain origins movie from them I didn't mind checking out, even if ironically

Welp... as I suspected. I knew it probably, nay obviously, was a trick, but what really sealed it is Velvet's old friend Niko seeing her demon arm and going "I don't care you're a demon now as long as you stay here forever"

Still was pretty sad... that was a good segment of the game.

Or maybe it's another one of those "oh we thought swann was this other person" like how they thought she was will turner in the first movie

The entire fight scene between Jack/Will/Norrington/Elizabeth/Pintel/Ragetti in Dead Man's Chest for the key to the treasure chest is one of my favorite movie sequences.

That the one on the giant wheel? I don't even know if it remotely made any sense, that was just so fun to watch back then.

This all makes me rather nostalgic and I wanna see the trilogy again.

I don't remember any of the details, but I remember not liking the third one. Killing the kraken off-screen just reeked of laziness because they made it too OP in the second one and then the whole movie is devoted to giving Calypso her magic back, but she does fuck-all to affect the story.

It's also not something you get if you watch it now, but they marketed the fuck out of the Pirate Court. Full-fledged posters for every single captain only for them to be in the movie for like ten minutes.

I remember this. They had chow yun fat on the poster and a cardboard cutout even at our movies

No. His leg injury gave him a legitimate need for the Vicodin pills at the time, but just like all opioids, he developed an addiction to them. His crankiness is neither here nor there though: he was always like that.

So in the story, when he took the syringe from the other doctor and injected himself with meds, that was just for the pain, not to scam the doc out of pain meds?
