Well, after seeing pictures and character descriptions, the trailer for the film Jem and the Holograms has finally arrived, and I have mixed emotions about it. Years ago a Josie and the Pussycats movie was released, and it was far more brilliant than most gave it credit for. It was campy, but at the same time was making social commentary on how pop music was being manufactured and how people were treated as sheep who were buying that music. Later on Alvin and the Chipmunks hinted at the same flaw (in fact I swear by the fact that Alvin and the Chipmunks was actually the story of N’Sync). This film on the other hand looks a lot darker in terms of its overall plot, and I can’t fathom why the Misfits are not featured at all in this trailer (true Jem fans, you know what I’m talking about). Yet, as always, we will see how the finished product turns out. Decide for yourself after you view below:
