Oh, Harold & Purple Crayon movie 2024 was really terrible.
The premise of making the cartoon boy Harold grew up become innocent adult man that looking for the the creator of him in real world (Earth) and having very awkward and chaotic interaction with peoples on Earth was really terrible to watch.
My face was literally poker face for entire movie, with sometimes I raised my eyebrow for certain WTH situations. I didn't react in positive way until the end of movie and it indicated it was really terrible movie.
@Anti-Matter Wow, the film did make a ton of changes from the original book. When I first saw the announcement they were going to adapt the book into a film, I thought the film was going to be a straight up adaptation of the original book and not a sequel where Harold is an adult and goes looking for his creator on Earth and doesn’t follow much of the source material besides having Harold, the purple crayon and the imagination part of it.
But, I also don’t know how well they could have adapted Harold & The Purple Crayon into an hour-long film, and they’d have to add new content to lengthen it and have it reach a good runtime for a theatrical release. I read that way before they released the film the book got a short film adaptation and a television series, both animated, so I feel like a new, modern adaptation would have worked better in either of those formats in my opinion rather than a feature-length film since short films and show episodes can go for shorter runtimes and not be stretched out for an hour long.
