Where the heck is Jesus in all of this? Ugh, you can just TELL that this is going to be really bad.

More like really cute as far as the characters go.
The thing that pisses the shit out of me with movies like this is they make the lead characterless appealing (in this case it's the rabbit) and the secondary characters so cute (the chicks). Ironically it's from the same guy who diod Despicable Me which was just bad. The same thing happened in that movie. Gru was the lead and was a bumbling moron who I couldn't care less about and the Minions were friggin' adorable, but their role was small. Get what I'm saying?

I'll admit it, I really want to see this movie.

0:47-1:13 is ... incredible.
Actually - except for the CGI, the whiny cliched "I don't want to be stuck living my father's life" thing, and (worst of all) the animated animal wants a human woman (what the fuck?!) - this looks like it might be good.

0:47-1:13 is ... incredible. In what way?

The trailer isn't that funny. It's more cute.

Well, humor is subjective. Of course.

GOD DAMN THIS LOOKS LIKE THE WORST THING EVER. I take a quote from Alex Navarro's review of the film: Hop probably could have been a lot worse.In Hop, the young Easter Bunny, E.B., poops jelly beans. Literally. Jelly beans are Easter Bunny poop. People still eat them. And they still taste like watermelon. That is a joke that someone wrote. For money. He gave the film 2 stars.

I refuse to believe it's the concept of jelly beans being Easter Bunny poop that is the problem. I'm sure it's the execution. If the bunny had not been a slacker wannabe-rockstar, for example. If it'd been really, really cute... Then it wouldn't be such a stretch to believe this could be amusing somehow. It would be like a metaphor: Cute Begets Cute. Cute comes from cute. I mean, if the bunny had been a nicer character, think of it this way... Wouldn't it be less repulsive to think of jelly beans as all natural than seeing them made in a factory with all the incredibly unhealthy and unnatural chemicals and added preservatives type things that we should never eat which they use to make jelly beans? I mean- have we all forgotten how vegetables are made? Crops need fertilization. Smelly poop from animals is used to make all our natural food. Also- it's like recycling! Feces is waste product. But if they turned something which is waste into a renewable resource...
It's a nice thought. When you look at it this way. Besides, animals are like everyone's babies.

A rabbit shitting jelly beans is the new hot topic on my forum. Should I feel special? WINNING?

Yeah, but you do realize that crops are just nourished by fertalizer and do not come directly from shit.

Alright, this thread deserves a one way ticket to "The Classics" board just for the discussion we are having.
