-the pups (yet again) NEVER AGE, which is especially bad in this movie since one of the underlying themes is the pups growing up
-Lily takes the omega pups into a haunted forest when there's no reason for her to do so. Remember, omegas don't hunt (according to the first movie.)
-Shadow Forest is described as being teeming with life, but it's a wasteland.
-Runt CLIMBS A TREE (um, wolves don't do that) to take a look at the bad weather; what does he expect to FIND??
-Runt falls down the tree and doesn't suffer any kind of injury at all
-Runt is observed as being "as pale as a coyote", except that his color hasn't changed at all. There were much more logical and appropriate ways to have shown him to be shaken up
-Tony looks significantly older than the alpha pups he shares the same alpha school class with
-Runt goes back to Shadow Forest with his siblings and almost gets Stinky killed, and Kate doesn't even TRY to punish him for his reckless actions (he doesn't even feel any GUILT about it!) As a mom, I can tell you that this is a TERRIBLE example to set for children. Actions have consequences and dangerous behavior has to be addressed for the safety of your child!
-Rabbit Poo Mountain was mentioned in the first movie as a joke. It's not the name of a real place, but the writers apparently forgot that for this sequel. People talk about going to "The Big Apple," but the NAME of the place is New York City.
-Runt leads Daira to Rabbit Poo Mountain when it's never established that he would know where that is
-Daria establishes her heightened senses that she developed to compensate for her blindness, but then she can't hear a car coming until it's right on top of her
-Kate and Humphrey are supposed to be the main characters, but they're humiliated by a couple of porcupines for no reason at all
-Kate and Humphrey don't show the slightest bit of irritation for their son sneaking out in the middle of the night and getting into danger. Please see my parenting tip above.
-the leader of Daria's pack is named King; what is the point of naming him King when there was ALREADY a pack leader named King in A&O2?
-it's about a day's journey from Rabbit Poo Mountain to Shadow Forest, and Daria never noticed her pack following her until she was almost back to her cave; why didn't she notice them before with her allegedly heightened senses? Why didn't the OTHER wolves notices them with their NOT heightened senses?
-the ghost wolf takes King away because he was a threat to Daria's life, but it doesn't do that with anyone else who encroached on Daria
I could go on, but just watch the review for a more complete assessment.
"I think you one of bobsheaux minions"
I'm not his 'minion,' I'm his girlfriend. He doesn't have minions. LOL I'm also a fan of the first movie, like I said before. He said the first movie was "okay," but I actually liked it. We don't agree on everything. (I also loved Maleficent, which he hated.) But on the A&O sequels, we DO agree. It's hard not to when I've watched them myself and seen all the plot holes, accidental silliness and terrible artwork. In any case, I have just as much right to my opinion as you do to yours.
What are you talking about?
i repeat: saying a movie's terrible just by looking at the nitpicks is NOT A FUCKING REVIEW!!! get that right! if you think the sequels are god awful, then i'd like to see you and bob do better. also, if you're REALLY bob's girlfriend, how come it doesn't look like you two live in the same house? we never see or hear you in ANY of his reviews, never! or is this just a sketch or a rp so both of you can get noticed on the internet?
I don't have to "do better" than the A&O franchise to have an opinion about it. You aren't making movies to rival the Swan Princess franchise, are you? You complain enough about that one, nitpicking over every sequel. But as I've stated before on YouTube, you are under the mistaken impression that only you are allowed to have an opinion and to express that opinion. That's very hypocritical.
As for the garbage about whether I'm real or really his girlfriend, I already told you to check out MY YouTube channel if you're all that curious. I've also done voice work in three of his videos so far. In fact, every one of your accusations have been addressed over and over on YouTube and Google+. You spit vitriol and attack anyone with an opinion different than yours and when they reply, you completely ignore any points they've made and call them names like a 3rd grader.
On Bobsheaux's DeviantArt page, I saw a comment from someone a while back about you. They told Bob not to pay any attention to you because you make ALL fans of A&O look bad. I have to agree with that person. The majority of people who like these movies don't FOAM AT THE MOUTH when someone doesn't share their opinion.
"The reason why the pups doesn't grow up is because in real life they age slowly"
No they don't. The period of time where the pups starting to play outside of the den and meeting the other pack members lasts about 3 weeks. Then, they start joining in on hunts and exploring alone. That period lasts 12 weeks. They reach sexual maturity at about 1 year of age. I only broke that down for you because you said 'in real life.' In real life, Claudette, Runt and Stinky would already be adults. You are incorrect.
In terms of the movie, in the first A&O, Kate and Humphrey are shown to go from adolescents to adults in ONE SEASON. Kate goes to Alpha school and comes back an adult. The pups have already attended at least one session of alpha school but they still haven't aged. Plus, one of the THEMES of the movie is the fact that the pups are growing up, but the animation never reflects that. They stay little and deformed (seriously, their legs are too short and their heads are too big. Don't even get me started on the lack of a lower jaw. That's just CREEPY.)
"Then there 6,7 and 8 Richard rich is teaming with another company so probably it will make the even better movie than 1st and 4th one crossing fingers for 9 and 10 to be confirmed"
I am truly hopeful that the team up of Crest and Splash Entertainment will result in better sequels in the future, ones that will be an homage instead of an embarrassment to the original A&O.
Oh and by a way movies like this is what comes from having a imagination. Something u and ur "bf" clearly don't have.
-the pups (yet again) NEVER AGE, which is especially bad in this movie since one of the underlying themes is the pups growing up
Answer to that is the fact it focuses there age trades younger viewers.
Lily takes the omega pups into a haunted forest when there's no reason for her to do so. Remember, omegas don't hunt (according to the first movie.)
They where exploring it not hunting. And plus maybe the pups just wanted to tag along?
-Shadow Forest is described as being teeming with life, but it's a wasteland
Diddint seem like it to me. And if it did maybe it was like that to go along with Haunted part.
-Runt CLIMBS A TREE (um, wolves don't do that) to take a look at the bad weather; what does he expect to FIND??
Again. It's called imagination. Also last time I checked the movie wasn't animation not a real life show .
-Runt falls down the tree and doesn't suffer any kind of injury at all
Again an animated show not real life
-Runt is observed as being "as pale as a coyote", except that his color hasn't changed at all. There were much more logical and appropriate ways to have shown him to be shaken up
The fact that you didn't understand that is pathetic. It's a saying. Just because it said it doesn't mean he is actually as pale as a coyote, just that he saw something that scared the crap out of him
-Tony looks significantly older than the alpha pups he shares the same alpha school class with
Well I do have to agree with that
-Runt goes back to Shadow Forest with his siblings and almost gets Stinky killed, and Kate doesn't even TRY to punish him for his reckless actions (he doesn't even feel any GUILT about it!) As a mom, I can tell you that this is a TERRIBLE example to set for children. Actions have consequences and dangerous behavior has to be addressed for the safety of your child!
I will agree with this one too because as u said it should be addressed.
-Rabbit Poo Mountain was mentioned in the first movie as a joke. It's not the name of a real place, but the writers apparently forgot that for this sequel. People talk about going to "The Big Apple," but the NAME of the place is New York City.
Again agree with.
-Runt leads Daira to Rabbit Poo Mountain when it's never established that he would know where that is
Last time I checked he said he knew where that was.
-Daria establishes her heightened senses that she developed to compensate for her blindness, but then she can't hear a car coming until it's right on top of her
I agree with that too
-Kate and Humphrey are supposed to be the main characters, but they're humiliated by a couple of porcupines for no reason at all
Okay you're going to have to tell me what the hell does them being humiliated have to do with them being the main characters 😡
-Kate and Humphrey don't show the slightest bit of irritation for their son sneaking out in the middle of the night and getting into danger. Please see my parenting tip above.
Use common sense they were too worried about his safety to be mad. And when it ended it were happy that he was okay and not harmed.
-the leader of Daria's pack is named King; what is the point of naming him King when there was ALREADY a pack leader named King in A&O2?
His name wasn't king it was head wolf. Look at the credits
-it's about a day's journey from Rabbit Poo Mountain to Shadow Forest, and Daria never noticed her pack following her until she was almost back to her cave; why didn't she notice them before with her allegedly heightened senses? Why didn't the OTHER wolves notices them with their NOT heightened senses?
He act like because she's blind she has super wolf hearing but she doesn't 😡
-the ghost wolf takes King away because he was a threat to Daria's life, but it doesn't do that with anyone else who encroached on Daria.
Maybe she is trapped there duh! Or maybe they where forced to do has he said. Just saying 😤
Oh and by the way, I make my living using my imagination. I've been interviewed by three major news publications and did an interview on NPR's The Takeaway about my job. Bobsheaux has almost 4K subscribers and is getting new ones each day. He recently did a story arc for his Star Wars theme month, including some phenomenal special effects that he was able to accomplish without a green screen, that spanned seven separate videos. It was amazing! Clearly, our imagination isn't to blame for the low quality of the A&O sequels. :)
However, when you insult my imagination or put quotes around bf, that is definitely trying to pick a fight. I assume you put quotes around bf to indicate that you don't think we're dating (I could be wrong here...TimberHumphrey can't seem to get the fact that I'm a real person and that I'm dating Bobsheaux just because he and I don't live together **eyeroll*) TH trolls Bobsheaux with personal attacks, name-calling and threats. He's jumped on me for defending my boyfriend. These are things I take personally. They are unnecessary and, quite frankly, give other fans of the movie a very bad name.
) but i find yall both right and wrong. But I am a huge fan of Alpha and omega. (even though I actually hate the third movie
@ClaireDawnWolf: Thank you for that. You're clearly one of those REASONABLE A&O fans. :) We can debate the merits of the movies all day long, but we don't have to devolve into childish name-calling.
But who cares if he or anyone else thinks its bad? I mean I think its bad but as I said I still like the movie. Why? Because I just really enjoy the series and honestly just seeing how bad it is in a way makes me like it more. The term, "Its so bad its good" and that's just my OPINION just like its Bobsheaux's OPINION or Jerry's OPINION. Who's Jerry you may ask? I don't know. But maybe some dude named Jerry watched this movie and has an opinion about it. Doesn't make any of us wrong.
They are not supposed to be boring realism, it's a 'Disney' (kinda) inspired film in a similar manner to 'All Dogs go to Heaven'. It sound really wrong to say "All animal movies must be like RL" to be "good".
Bob makes an interesting point about the title of the forth movie, and a very good point about the plot hole they did with that rabid poo mountain. But if he brings out an intention, then I can judge back and say he's wrong about it. Same to a critic if they did the same thing.
I do not agree the forth is bad because as a low production company, it doesn't need to be Pixar in order to be 'good enough'. It's like there are people who make super low graphic video game mods for other people (N64 mods) and it's fine as it is. However, the forth was my least favorite but I need to separated my own biases sometimes if I needed to critique something.
And I was talking about the judgement thing. I've heard you can argue someone's opinion if it's used as a 'judgement' critique attempt or some other kind of judgement. If he simply says, it's not his kind of fantasy, then that's another story. XD
