What I Think Of The Boss Baby 2


Hello there animation fans i don't usually cover news items and that's because i don't really like to judge things before i've at least seen a trailer or two but with this one i feel like i have to talk about it because it's so out of know where here is what i think of The Boss Baby 2.


One if the issues that the film will have to overcome is the fact that The Boss Baby is on longer a Boss Baby he's just a baby so with that ending firmly in place how can you do a sequel? the short answer is you can't because the story of the first film resolved every plot point so there's no new story that you can tell and the whole point of a sequel is to try match if not surpass the first film but when you start with nothing you'll end with nothing.

This post won't be all negative (but it mostly will be) they have confirmed that the best part of the first movie Alec Baldwin will be back to play the character but one person doesn't make a team so you can't have Alec back and not bring back all of the other cast members which would be ashame because i really liked the kid who played his brother and anything with Lisa Kudrow is gold for me but reading the article from Deadline they don't mention who else will be back which for me is something Dreamworks should have locked down they key personnel before announcing this movie.


As i've said already the whole point of a sequel is to try surpass what you did in the first film which means in this case you have to put out better animation and i thought the animation in the first film was really done but tho given that the film will be out in four years there's a 50% chance that the quality of the animation could improve but with that said they've only got four years that's not alot of time to improve on animation if they had say five years then i would say the animation would improve but alas it's only four years.

Now this film is due out on March 26th 2021 that's the week before Fast 10 comes out i mention this because when the first film came out there was really no competition when it came out so i think that's a stupid move to release the sequel one week before the next installment of a major franchise doing that only means this film will fail because if given the choice most movie goers will select Fast 10 over what could be considered a kids film.


I'm not saying The Boss Baby 2 can't work as a movie i'm just saying that given what's released it seems unlikely that it will work but if whoever the writer and director turn out to be can make it work then i'll watch it because the first film was entertaining but tho if your a sequel just being entertaining won't always work because movie goers are smart people they know what they want and if you just entertain them but that's it then there's a chance you'll be a flop with that said i hope The Boss Baby 2 is at least a decent film.
