PrinceKaro 08/07/18 11:16:43 AM #53:	28. Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer Karo: 15 Stifled: 18 Scarlet: 23 Red: 23 Inviso: 27 Snake: 28 Genny: 28 Johnbobb: 29 Charon: 29 JONA: 29 Total Score: 249 Karo: Rainbow Brite is like a cute little magical girl who uses her powers to save the world from those who want to drain all color from existence, such as Tim Burton. In this movie, there's this bratty chick who wants the biggest gem in the universe, which is a planet-sized hunk of crystal. Now this causes a crisis on earth because this crystalline planet is the source of all light and warmth in the world, rather than the Sun as all those crazy scientists would like you to believe. Rainbow has to of course stop this from happening, and is joined by Krys, a little boy who looks like a bad prototype of Megaman. His main role in the movie is make constant misogynistic comments towards Rainbow Brite about much girls suck and are useless, despite the fact that she just journeyed halfway across the cosmos to help his little punk ass. The addition of this asshole and his robot horse was probably to make the movie more appealing to boys, but lets be honest, theres not a whole lot of that demographic thats gonna go within 20 feet of a film about a rainbow fairy and her magic pony. This kind of sexism is nothing new in hollywood, and sadly is not even the worst example of it on this list. About halfway through the writers just flat out run out of ideas and everyone just runs around pointlessly while being chased by various things until the final battle with the villain. It is something that just doesnt really do anything to move beyond the very extended TV episode nature of a lot of these movies. Stifled: Not to be prejudiced against bright, pretty, and colorful movies, but I havent been a big fan of those so far. ButI have to give props to Rainbow Brite. I was pretty engaged through the whole thing. The action scenes were cool. Sexist Mega Man ended up being a good sidekick for her. Snuffy Jr. and Shrimpy Dick Dastardly were decent comic relief as well. The horses were really cool. The villain being a spoiled and entitled brat with no motivations outside of I want it! was surprisingly compelling. Whether it was the intent or not, it plays a solid commentary on the power of greed. The one thing I felt was dumb and unnecessary, however, was the regular human boy with the key. He played zero factor into the plot. Why did we waste screen time on him? Why did we point out how he is the only human that can see Rainbow if he was just going to do nothing important? I assume he was important in the show, but I didnt watch the show. For anyone who didnt watch the show, this was a big miss. But beyond that misstep, I would actually watch this again! Also, holy crap they actually killed the villain. Hardcore. I love it! Traviss Opinion: Travis would watch it again too! He loved it and was glued to the screen. He liked the horses, especially Rainbows. I also heard him say Rainbow Brite! a few times when she came on screen. I think we have a fan. Scarlet: You have to wonder why Karo thought a list of trashy first draft scripts written with the care of a college freshman who forgot a term period until the morning of the due date was worthy of the time of Gauntlet Crew. Especially when you find yourself on the receiving end of garish, asinine visuals featuring saccharinely oversweet bullshit being peddled for the sole purpose of merchandise. This is the sort of crap that has led to generations of society setting the bar for discourse so low that even an ant couldnt squeeze its way under it. A plot pandering to the 7-year-old girl, it has a lot of horsepower, but it lacks much in the way of brainpower.
