I kind of want to watch it just to see Emma Stone dress up in different outfits.

Did it make Cruella a tragic character who turned to evil because of the abuse in her life?

Or was she always just kind of a bitch?

The trailers could go either way.

Yes, but they de-aged her so she looks like Emma Stone.

both, Cruella was an alter ego that was always a crazy ass bitch. And it took society to bring her out

Sounds like they knocked off Joker, lol
There were for sure scenes that reminded me of it

At one point, everyone at a party dresses up like Cruella. Yes the reasoning is different but it reminded me of everyone dressing up as the Joker
Estella/Arthur snapping to become their criminal alter ego
Arthur's dad and Estella's mom being a twist plot point
The ongoing theme of recognition


And of course, society

Her mother isn't actually her real mom. She adopted her, Cruella's actual mom is the main antagonist, who is the one that killed her adopted mom.

Actually, her hating dalmatians isnt a plot point. She doesn't hate them at all.

They aren't the best breeds if you have children or other animals. They can be pretty aggressive.

Actually, thinking of the dalmatians the cgi was really awful. Some scenes the dogs are played by real dog actors, with all the action scenes done with cgi.
I get the theory behind it, that way none of the dogs get hurt. But the cgi is obvious and it looks awful. I can't find any gifs, but if I do I'll post them

So, I have a question.
Why did she give Anita and Roger the dalmations, only to want the puppies as a fur coat in 101 Dalmations?

Cruella inherits her real mother's dalmatians after she gets sent to jail. One of them has Pongo and Perdita. So she gifts Perdita to Anita her old school pal, and Pongo to Roger. I'm actually not sure why Roger got Pongo, I must have missed something

Just got back from seeing it with the kids.

It was decent. They left it with sequel bait. Im guessing that the next movie will have her spiral into a more and more evil character just like her mother.

Whats next? The Aristocats?

Did you happen to catch why Roger was gifted Pongo? Only thing I could think of was that the one who helped her transfer everything from Estella to Cruella was him, but I didn't think to look at who was helping her with that

im guessing that it will be in a cut scene where it shows exactly that happening.

lol

Anyhow, I'm actually hyped to watch it. Love the design aesthetic and costume designing, and while I'm not really a fan of the source material, I'm interested in the character arc for the villain protagonist. Looks way better than Maleficent ever did anyway. But I'm not paying $30 to watch it. lmao fuck that

Im guessing its a meh film but I like Emma Stone a lot so Im excited too.
