I'm not sure about this one ... But I guess a temporary toy-hype will return with these more modern kind of Trolls.

The photos fill me with dread, it sounds so terribly derivative

Thomas Guycott · 01-10-2016, 04:58 PM

Holy random celebrity casting, Batman!

Interesting. I'll consider it if it's in strong 3D as Dreamworks has done with Madagascar 3 3D.

Though I've never owned a Troll figure, I prefer the toy design of the original Trolls figures (pictured above),
compared to this new design. No big deal.

I don't know if I'm allowed to say it, but here it goes anyway. An animator explained to me the look of the original trolls were scaring the children when put in motion. There was a time they considered to keep the original look. And apparently the older facial features were narrowing down the possibility to put a lot of variety in the expressions during different emotions.

That said, I also believe the partners wanted a more modern and friendly face with a new toy line in mind, I guess.

I don't know what to think about it ... I want to see them moving around in the world that was created for this movie before I can make my mind up.

When a third of your cast consists of pop singers, you know you're in trouble.

One or two of them are youtube personalities.

Well, one is from The Big Bang Theory (Kunal Nayyar), Justin Timberlake is a pop singer and actor (In Time), Anna Kendrick was in Pitch Perfect and Pitch Perfect 2, Gwen Stefani (The Voice), James Corden has his late show and was recently in Into The Woods, Russel Brand is a comedian and used to be Katy Perry's husband, Icona Pop (I Love It). Hope that helps.

Also Charli XCX.

Dreamworks, stop casting musicians for your animated movies!

Basically everyone is a singer except Kunal.

My two-cents:

Nothing against Ms. Kendrick, but there are SO many talented voice actors and actresses out there knocking it out of the park on television and they get passed over time and time again just so studios can attach a name to a poster. I mean does anyone even care anymore? I always groan when I see the trailer for Secret Life of Pets and they slap all the celebrity names up there like we're supposed to be impressed. Pixar uses celebrities too but they don't parade them around either, I just found out Diane Lane was the voice of Riley's mom the other day and that's been out for months.

And talks a lot of sense in terms of politics. Why can't he be prime minister?

ThatOneGuy · 01-20-2016, 07:08 PM

Interesting cast, glad to see a YouTuber is a voice actor but I have no clue what this is about and I don't like the design of the trolls unless they were purposely made to look like the toys.

Oh bit snobby there aren't you. Everyone has to start somewhere and she does have a big personality.
