Haven't seen it, but we do watch a lot of Jojo Siwa at my house. I get the feeling that the two aren't similar.

I am intrigued

From the trailer it looks like there was a game where you took a Director from one pile of cards and a 60s/70s TV show from another pile of cards, Leading Man from another, and Leading Woman from yet another and you had to make a movie

Taika Waititi drew 'Wes Anderson' 'Hogan's Heroes' 'Sam Rockwell' and 'Rebel Wilson'

How ELSE could this get green-lit?

I can't WAIT to see Jon Favreau's Gilligan's Island with Christian Bale [as Gilligan] and Elizabeth Moss [as MaryAnn ... or maybe Mrs. Howell?]

ETA: M Night Shamalan already did Green Acres as done by Ridley Scott with The Village . so maybe this has been going on for a while?

Watched this for the first time this morning. Dog decided 5:00 am was a terrific time to go poop, so I was up early and as such have had several hours to myself. With the dog.

Brewed a pot of coffee and low and behold the second half of Kingpin was on so I watched that. “Who you calling a psycho!” Classic. Of course, when that was over it was still just about 6:00.

I DVR’d JOJO Rabbit last week with the intention of it being our Saturday night matinee, but my wife wasn’t interested. So, seeing as I had the place to myself, I fired it up.

Fantastic. I’m not a particularly emotional human being, and like some of my generation and upbringing find the outward expression of such somewhat embarrassing. So, good thing everyone else is still asleep, because when those kids started to dance in the final scene it brought literal tears to my eyes. I’m pretty sure the last time that happened was when I saw Schindler’s List in the theater when I was about 20.

I’m still laying here hugging up my dog and hoping the rest of my family stays in bed for awhile because this is just humiliating. And I can’t figure out, logically, why I’m having such a strong and unusual reaction to a ducking movie.

I think that means it’s a great movie?

Agree, I enjoyed it very much. A very different take on the horrors of war but also very well done. The ending with “Heroes” is awesome. Perfect song choice when you think about the context of when Bowie wrote it.

Great film. Good for family too, though tackles some tough topics.

Great, but describe "family".

There's pretty violent stuff.

Is it available on any of the typical streams? netflix, hbo, hulu, prime, etc?

The dancing also brought tears to my eyes, so no judgement from me! I basically cried the whole way through "The Art of Racing in the Rain" as I had just lost my dog to cancer a few months before watching.

Pretty sure it is on HBO Max

We have google fiber and It is currently available on HBO on demand with that service.

It occurred to me that the kid that plays JoJo looks virtually identical to one of my nephews.

Great, we have hbo/max, so I will check it out. The trailer looks, uh, funny? (but not an inherently funny topic)
