I have wanted to rewatch these films, but I’m concerned that they might not have aged very well.
The movie starring a white guy in brown face faking an Indian accent? Probably not
When I rewatched it, I was standing here beside myself.
Yeah…
They haven’t. I saw Short Circuit 2 this year again and it’s really unfortunate how much the appalling racism sullied an otherwise charming film. It was especially dear to me as a kid because there was a Johnny 5 animatronic at my science museum, and it encouraged in me a lot of hope for the future. I miss having that optimism.
You could also watch Chappie, which is essentially the same concept but darker and more South African.
Me whenever I look at my dogs: “Beautiful animal… canine… dog… mutt.”
Need input!
I can hear that title in an Indian accent
I completely forgot about that character, but I also read this in an Indian accent and didn’t even realize I had until I read your comment.
Johnny Five, alive!
No disassemble!
I would but los lobos kicked my balls into outer space
What of your face
Johnny Five as a Los Locos gang member (please disregard the blatant racism)
Last time I saw that movie was at a drive in. No joke.
Last time I saw any movie outside of my house was at a drive in. My city still has one, and I prefer it to the indoor movie theater.
Admittedly, that was several years ago (probably even pre-covid), but that’s not the drive-in’s fault; that’s because all the movies these days are shitty sequels, prequels, remakes, and live-action versions of perfectly-good animated films.
