Blog:Disney/Pixar's The Gumazing Gum Girl (2003) (Fake Movie)

The Gumazing Gum Girl is a 2003 American fantasy superhero comedy live action/animated film directed by Bo Welch in his directorial debut and based on The Gumazing Gum Girl! comic book series of the same name. Starring Janice Kawaye in the title role, Cree Summer, Mila Kunis, Audrey Wasilewski, Grey DeLisle, Dakota Fanning, Spencer Breslin, Alec Baldwin, Kelly Preston and Mike Myers.

Why it Sucks

 * 1) This film is completely unfaithful to the book as it destroys the charm, and it besmirched the original and twists it into a movie inappropriate for the target of Gum Girl. There are a lot of innuendos (for a PG-rated movie) and the film features a new character named Larry, a lazy unemployed next-door neighbor, who wasn't even in the original comic books to begin with.
 * 2) Awful characters and character development, especially the conflict between Rico and Malik.
 * 3) Extremely flawed character design for Gum Girl that looks like Nemo from Disney/Pixar's Finding Nemo. As well as Ninja-Rina, which look like Andre. Both of those designs look like they belong in Pixar films, not in original Gumazing Gum Girl films.
 * 4) Wasted talents, including that of Mike Myers as Mr. Hansen and Alec Baldwin as Larry.
 * 5) The film also has a lot of very inappropriate content for kids due to the amount adult and toilet jokes it has.
 * 6) Shameless marketing in one scene, where Gabby uses Disney cards during the climax.
 * 7) Bad graphical effects.
 * 8) Instead of following the same moral from the comics, the movie adds extra ones that are incredibly forced and unnecessary.
 * 9) Most of the conflicts were incredibly forced.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) As unfaithful of an adaptation it is, the movie still has a few moments faithful to the comic. The environment and props also carry the Gum Girl feel.
 * 2) Additionally, the opening credits and logos are entirely well animated in the Gum Girl distinctive style, and the music played in the background is fitting and amazing.
 * 3) Decent soundtrack.
 * 4) While the humor tends to be weak, there are still a few funny moments.
 * 5) The moment when Gabby is beaten can be a bit heartbreaking, but is mostly satisfying considering his actions in the movie.
 * 6) Some of the characters can be at least somewhat tolerable.
 * 7) The S.L.O.W. vehicle is pretty awesome.
 * 8) It's less creepy than the 2000 Sluzzle Tag film.
