Anyone seen the new Jem & The Holograms movie trailer?

Well apparently this movie flopped hard to the surprise of absolutely no one.

The sad thing is I have read some positive reviews but it seems like a lot of people were set on not liking it before it even released.

Also now I'm worried the dolls won't happen which is a shame. I was really hoping for some playline Jem dolls that were more affordable than the Integrity dolls and as nice as the Descendants dolls. I could never get into the vintage dolls because their bodies felt rubbery and stiff.

I heard that also. Truthfully I had little interest in seeing this movie after I saw the trailers even though I really like the Jem cartoon. I would have liked to have had new Jem dolls also because I could never bring myself to get the vintage ones.

I went to see it last week, its second week out. And, I have to say I was expecting it to be really bad. I went with a fellow Jem Girl, who had not seen any trailers but is a huge fan since childhood.

Shockingly IT WAS NOT!!!  The trailers do NOT do it justice!  Yes. Its NOT the same as the cartoon I adore, but theres just enough similarities and shout-outs to the original for it to be fun. And the music was truly outrageous!  I bought the soundtrack on iTunes that night (only because its not available as an actual CD, Boo).

I plan to see it again. I will buy the DVD. So, my advice is give it a chance and have an open mind.  You may find yourself humming one of the songs from the movie instead of the tv show....

I'm not really surprised that it bombed so bad it got pulled after only two weeks in theaters here.
i had a co-worker who took her daughter to go see Jem since the daughter got hooked on the tv show when it was airing on the hub/discoverykids/whateveritscalled and she was rather disappointed in the movie.

her mom said that the Lizzie McGuire movie was better than Jem -snork-

Aaaah. I loved The Lizzie McGuire Movie when I was a kid
