A little late seeing your video but I agree, I am a big Jem fan and it sucks how they are using the Jem name but not staying true to the source material. I would of rather them not make a movie than make one that doesn't really capture the essence of Jem. Always good to see another Jem fan.
Thanks for bringing up the petition because I've been going on every Jem video I could find posting the link (I didn't create it though, I'm just trying to help spread the word; I had nothing better to do lol). They need to scrap this movie and start all over again. They need to keep it in the 80s. I'm sick and tired of seeing this same story being told over and over again about a whiny teenager who can't really sing becoming famous overnight! If they had done this right, it would have brought something fresh and new to this generation. Instead we get 2015's Hannah Montana. Ugh!
time machine Yes, I'm trying to spread the word also. I am so disappointed in this movie. I would've accepted an updated movie, I would've accepted all new songs (as long as they included the theme song), as long as the movie was still about the same Jem I grew up with. This is so wrong on so many levels.
Lavallais Pictures Wanna know what's even wronger? Christy Marx wanted to do the script fo rthe movie and Hollywood said NO! How can you not want the person who FUCKING CREATED JEM to have anything to do with a movie about her?
AnimeBleachBabe Or even have at least one woman involved in a female driven property. Everyone involved in this was a man. Which is why even though I'm infuriated, I'm not surprised that they missed the mark.
I know how mad I am about the movie but when you mentioned the tape that came with the doll I remember listening to it over and over and it just brought a huge smile to my face.
Also I believe Rio would have never involved himself to romance JEM___because in the episode "Disaster" she started her moves on him. In Riot,s Hope" episode she did the same move on Riot. When she gets caught she blames riot like in "Day the music died episode.
Lavallais Pictures Jem fans if you think you're upset after watching the crap Jem trailer you're really gonna be very upset to learn the truth behind the film. Plz, give this article I found recently a good read and share it. @85726414210
Similarities: Female rock band, lead singer has a secret identity. That's the basic concept, that's ALL Christy Marx was given to base the cartoon on when Hasbro commissioned her to write the bible for it.
Some interpretations are so far away from the source material its groan worthy. You gotta respect the source material. You dont have to do a soulless carbon copy but there should be some evidence of inspiration. Yeaahhhh that Dolph Lundgren joint was tough. Very little of the cartoon happened on earth. Because of lack of funds, live action He man wasnt on Eternia and those toys sucked.
I didnt grow up watching this show, but i happen to be scrolling channels late and night and found myself liking and becoming a fan. So imagine my joy and excitement when i was leaving the movie theater and saw the poster. I couldnt wait until i saw the trailer and was sooo pissed off. I tried telling my husband about this mess and was on the verg of tears i was soooo angry. What upsets me the most is that they replaced Shana its one thing to have an all white cast and sprinkle a black person in every now and then but to take the ONE black person out the movie is ridiculous. Sorry for the rant but this upset me on levels i didnt even know i had.
Rene R Don't be sorry, that's what this is for, so people can come here and rant at how these people ruined a beloved show. I knew about the Shana casting before the trailer so I had already written the movie off. But I kept hearing the outrage at the trailer and had to watch it for myself. I was screaming at my computer when it was over.
Ykw? They should've made the movie about the starlight girls. Instead of it being about the Jem we know and love the main character and her friends could've just been regular girls at starlight inspired by her and the holograms, deciding to embark on their own musical journey. It still would've taken inspiration from the 80's Jem, but still had the chance to be its own thing without so many expectations. With a new title, they might even coulda got away with it🤷🏽♀️

Aww man they messed it up!!! JEM was the bomb as a youth...
The producers of the Jem movie didn't want to use any of the source material and didn't consult writer Christy Marx. 🤔🎥🎬🎸
Like why even name it after Jem, then?
Also I believe Rio would have never involved himself to romance JEM___because in the episode "Disaster" she started her moves on him. In Riot,s Hope" episode she did the same move on Riot. When she gets caught she blames riot like in "Day the music died episode.
Hi, concerning the JEM show, I believe all is done based on the writers. Truly Outrageous it is called and I still love the show
My disappointed feelings about the new so called Jem and the Holograms movie.

Yes, how do you think you’re gonna capitalize on the source material, if the product is nothing like it?

They could’ve made it anything but Jem and the Holograms and it would’ve been better.
