♪ Who's that super cool exploradora? ♪
Honestly, I'm pretty pumped for this! ¡Vamanos!

I really love the actress of the main character. She's so spunky, she's so beautiful. Good actress, good actress.
Yup I pretty much came into this film thinking I'd love it and I was completely, completely right. I wish my friend and I watched this instead of Blinded by the Ligt but I mean it's whatevs I guess. At least I can blog and write while I watch this! Not to mention rewind and skip around if I wanted to, so I guess it all works out.
Dora dora!!
I get what Karsten Runquist meant when he said that the film is very self aware of what people expect out of this film or whatever he said something like that in his film essay yeah it's very apparent straight from the getgo.
HAHA the raves LOL the dad's hilarious haha
-
So parapata is both Pali and Sanskrit for "pigeon"
Parapata is the name of the island Dora's going to, apparently... But it's not really a word in Spanish. "para" is Spanish for, well, "for" and "pata" is Spanish for "foot" soo Parapata would translate to... "For foot" ? lol
-
Whoever plays Diego is a terrible actor though tbh. Good looking guy though, I think lol
-
Am I the only one who thinks the guy who's "a friend of [Dora's] parents" is probably going to be the plot twist villain, or
I'm calling it now; that guy's the plot twist villain
-
Boots isn't even wearing boots...
-
uhh the infamous song about making a latrine... but Dora mentions poop.
-
Ok this film essentially turned into shit after that song about pooping oh the irony
In the beginning I was pretty mad I wasn't able to watch this in the summer like summer summer before August 31st (I know fall really starts in September 23rd, but in my head all I can do is associate June to August as summer)
Yeah Karsten Runquist said in his film essay about this film that this film is "aggresively for children". In the beginning of the film, I completely disagreed with that. Now I completely agree with that. I'm not that interested in this film anymore and I'm pretty glad I didn't pay money to see it in theaters now.
-
now farting noises when they're in the quicksand ew oy vey
-
I have never heard of this "classic" video game "Pitfall" astronomy Phantom of the Opera dude
-
uhm there were two scorpions making love on top of the ~40 year old man
this film is honestly all over the place it's awful
-
Actually you know what that old lady looks evil... She probably isn't evil though. It's too obvious. She's probably their strongest ally.
-
Wow props to this film for having a lot of POC though and not whitewashing this film. And lol it was actually pretty nice they let the Phantom of the Opera guy and the honor roll/triathlete/class president type A go home though. Which means this really isn't a five team effort thing, so I guess it doesn't copy the Jumanji remake /too much/ lol
-
lololol they do drugs or something via the inadventantly smelling the flowersand and turn into their cartoon form(is the old guy in the main show though cause I don't remember him???)
I could have sworn the small rock kind of sounds like an American version of the yaranaika yaoi guy lmao
oh wait never mind the two people I described mentioned actually never went back home lmao wow that caught me by surprise
I had to rewind the scene bc apparently Dora saw some kind of yellow orange bug and that's what motivated her to jump off a cliff (in the cartoon drug scne, not actually in the plot of the film; just hazy drug dream sequence)
-
This film is all over the place wth
lol Diego is so bad as an actor though lololol
Diego: "You're my friend, Dora. You're my first friend, Dora."
lol but imagine it when essentially no emotion whatsoever like the actor just isn't paid enough to deal with fictional Dora's nonsense anymore lololol
LOL like this guy is soo far removed from smiling nonstop Diego in the cartoon that I barely remember (I think I was "too old" to watch Dora the Explorer when when Diego started also being in the show. But I'm young enough to remember that he had a spinoff show. At least I got that going for me lol)
-
lol the screenwriters were clearly on drugs when they wrote this entire film weren't they lmao
-
yeah he's the villain i literally called it earlier
STRANGER DANGER EVERYONE
LIterally saying "I'm a friend of your parents"... that's like the safety whatever when a stranger who is an adult tries to kidnap you and trick you into getting intotheir car to kidnap you STRANGER DANGER
-
You know, where on earth even was Boots during that cartoon drug sequence anyway? He could have talked. I find it weird that throughout the film Boots doesn't talk; he just makes monkey noise like. why.
Boots: *starts talking*
Me: O_O
lol why that voice and why is he talking to her about puberty
LOL why is she so impressed with the fact that Boots can speak to her like they literall talked earlier on in the film and she said "[Boots] said my parents" something something something lol soo... plothole?
There are actually so many plotholes in this film; I just don't even bother to try looking.
Yeah, this film is pretty boring, to say the least. It's just. It's NOWHERE near as bad as The Lion King remake was, so I can't complain too much about that.
-
Wait so
WHY did they even go to the Parapata?! Just for fun?!? lmaooo
because it really doesn't seem like they went there for pretty much anything else lolol
WHAT ON EARTH DID I JUST WATCH LOL
