I know they can't really stick to the 80's style.. but, I'm horrified. It's My Little Pony all over again. :(
ReplyDeleteUgh...
ReplyDeleteWhile I like the concept...I dunno how I feel about the modern designs.
The original had a touch of class while still being outrageous. These just feel like Jem meets Nicki Minaj.
If they toned down the hair slightly I wouldn't be so mortified.
I love the original style too much, but I will hope for the best for the next gen anyways...
ReplyDeleteHell no. This is a very nice drawing and all, but it's not Jem. Nope.
ReplyDeleteThe one on the left looks like Natalie Dormer :O
ReplyDeleteWTF ...
ReplyDeleteUuuhhhmmm..NO!!!
ReplyDeletealready been said, but looks shitty.
ReplyDeleteWTF! I remember watching this a few times when I 5/6 and that looks just aweful!!!
ReplyDeleteNO WAY! I like to see the live-action movie more then this.
ReplyDeleteWow that was a whole lot less tacky in my childhood brain than it is now.
