Talk:Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017)/@comment-9743299-20180424140326

What was Warner. Bros thinking?

This is easily the worst animated film I've seen in a while. It's the most pointless film I've ever seen, even more pointless than The Jungle Book 2. It is literally the exact same movie as the 1970's classic, only it's animated and they just slapped Tom and Jerry on it. This is seriously taking someone's crossover fanfiction from 15 years ago and actually animated by a PROFESSIONAL animation company. But with that aside, the movie is completely rushed.

They rushed through iconic scenes. The way they animated these classic characters comes out weird on un-natural, they added the Tom and Jerry slapstick in scenes where it doesn't belong and... Tuffy! So yeah, about that. It's as much as a ripoff as you think it is. It's a feeble attempt to honour either the movie's legacy or Gene Wilder and they're desprately running out of ideas to keep Tom and Jerry alive. Just watch the original.
