Who gets their own movie?

Diego, definitely
Kai-Lan, yes but will be a huge controversy when she’s played by Emma Stone or Maisie Williams or some shit.
Blues clues, Blue probably can’t work as a stand-alone. She’s got the “Hulk problem”
The Backyardigans, seems unlikely in the same way that Guardians of the Galaxy seemed unlikely, so probably yes and probably a huge success

So Diego, Kai-Lan, and the Backyardigans all get their own movies, Blue probably appears in at least two of them; and then we get Dora The Explorer 2: Swiper War

SPOILER ALERT

Swiper stares directly into Dora’s eyes, sarcastically says “awww man!”, then snaps his fingers, thus swiping half the universe.

PERFECTLY SWIPED, AS ALL THINGS SHOULD BE

I had minor surgery today and was under anesthesia.

All has become clear now.

I hope you heal up quickly!

No but this is apparently real and not a hallucination

I still think they should have gone with the original CollegeHumor treatment.

When I first saw the trailer I thought it was just a repost of this but no it’s apparently true!

I'm not at all surprised. Dora started in 2000, so we're right in time for the first "reimaginings". (It's almost the same amount of time between Batman '66 and the Tim Burton Batman, for instance)

Also, no "kid block TV" cinematic universe is complete without the post-apocalyptic version of Bob the Builder.

This whole conversation is reminding me of this article from the Atlantic several years ago.

Best thing I ever did was cancel cable before my kid got old enough to realize what they were missing. (And now they're old enough to watch TV at Grandma's and go "huh".) Worst I suffered through was some Netflix iCarly marathons. (And if anyone here has really young kids, do yourself a favor and get Pocoyo - you'll thank me later.)

As a father of two kids, both of which enjoyed far too much Dora .....

I've had swiper and the Dora theme song in my head for 2 days.

I hate you, Ben. But .. well played
