Peter the rebellous millennial rabbit...


Pretty much sums it up. Turning your childhood fairy tales into turds for the brain dead kids of today.

So what? From what I've seen of the Beatrix Potter stories, they look really OLD-FASHIONED and QUAINT, and only people who were children in the 1930s and maybe 1940s would love them, as simple as their lives were back then. Oh wait, they'd be DEAD now, so I'm glad this movie brings the characters KICKING and SCREAMING into the 21st century!

I'm pretty sure people who were kids in the 1930s and 1940s are still very much alive today, but mostly into their senior age.

I'm a big proponent of retelling classic stories for contemporary audiences.

But if you believe the spirit of the original is dead, why even bother to exhume its corpse?

Funny, my mum, myself, my sister, and my cousins are all fans of Beatrix Potter's books and none of us were born in the 40s. I was born in the 90s.
