My youngest is watching this right now.washing machine wrote:Last night I watched...Trolls. My MiL was visiting and I got outvoted. I didn't hate it, though. The animation was colorful and the central conflict between Poppy and Branch felt a lot like a Joey/Strat vs LV/Burt paradigm gap to me. Now I know who Anna Kendrick is, but I thought it was Ellie Kemper for most of the movie.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.
