Jen Tortures Herself With Every Dreamworks Animated Movie Ever: The Boss Baby: Family Business

So would you believe me if I told you this movie is better than the first Boss Baby? I mean it's not... much better, but still, improvements were made here. Let's talk about them.

We jump foward to a now adult Tim, who has fallen out of touch with his brother Ted (the original Boss Baby) and struggles to connect with his daughter Tabitha. He soon discovers his baby Tina is on assignment from BabyCorp to stop a new villain intent on wiping out all parents. Tina gives both Ted and Tim a formula to make them both young again, recruiting their help on this mission and roping them into all sorts of Mischief ala the first movie but... like I said, marginally better.

So yeah, once again, very silly plot for a very silly movie. And yet... I don't know, it feels more... genuine than the first one did? Like it leans less on the obvious "oh look at funee baby in suit talking like a businessman" (though there is still plenty of that) and leans more on character interactions and I gotta respect that. Especially since it actually gives me a reason to care about Ted and Tim this time around, actually strengthening their bond and reflecting on how they weren't there for each other growing up like they promised they would be, and how they're given a second chance to change that now. Idk, just some pretty nice thematic stuff in there, along with Tim learning to be a better dad to his kids along the way (daddy issues in Dreamworks movies, they never stop, I Swear).

The characters here are... ok. Better than they were in the first movie, I mean fuck, the titual Boss Baby is toned down a lot and is honestly one of the least painful parts of this. Tim is also better, mostly bc he's actually an adult here so he's not your annoying kid stereotype like he was before. Tina is... kind of annoying, being the source of all of the "business baby" jokes and she grates on the nerves every now and then. Tabitha is ok though, getting some good development alongside Tim. Then we have our villain, Armstrong, who is... surprisingly funny? Like he isn't the funniest dreamworks baddie by any means, but he was certainly watchable. Hell, you could kind of say that for this movie as a whole, really.

The humor here is a little better, striking surprisingly a little more mature than last time (featuring an insane joke about agnostics like what the fuck Dreamworks I never would have thought you'd ever reference religion again after Prince of Egypt holy shit). The emotional beats also hit just a touch more, feeling a good degree less forced than the first movie's. And yet for everything this movie does well, I think its biggest problem is it drags on for far too long, just meandering with scenes that don't need to be anywhere near as long as they are, into a movie with a longer runtime than it probably should have had. It gets... tiring, after a while, and you get to the point where you just want the damn thing to end.

The animation here is really nothing special, basically looking identical to the first movie's, though I will say a few of the imagination sequences were sort of eye catching here. The music is also pretty simplistic but there were a few diagetic songs that I thought were... ok enough. Pretty unoffensive in that reguard, though of course, the pop songs just couldn't keep their nose out of this movie either.

Like I said, its far from being anything resembling good, but fuck, I watched Spirit Untamed last night and this was better than that and it was also better than the first movie, so that's gotta count for something. Even then though, it doesn't count for... that much.

Overall Rating: 4/10

Verdict: Pay tribute to the Greatest Dreamworks Character Ever: The Agnostic Kid

Autistic Tim Templeton Headcanons!

he was diagnosed around age 10

his autism is one of the reasons why he feels so different from his brother, and why they both went down two very different life paths.

he DISPISES the textures of certain foods, like bananas or peas. they’re just mushy and gross!

he doesn’t like carbonated beverages. the bubbles feel weird and they kinda hurt his stomach.

he neuro narrates a lot! whether its through his imagination, daydreaming, or playing with his kids!

he’s had multiple special interests since childhood, like wizards, music, and board games.

he doesn’t always get jokes or sarcasm. sometimes Carol will make an off handed sarcastic comment and it’ll hurt Tim’s feelings, and she’s had to learn to clarify whenever she was joking in the future.

he does NOT like loud noises. at all. whether its a dog randomly barking, a firework going off, or thunder– it causes him to become extremely overstimulated and anxious.

Tim experiences episodes of being minimally verbal when overstimulated. it’s hard for him to communicate how he’s truly feeling, or what he really needs.

Tim likes being able to write because it helps him pre-plan certain situations and script out what it would be like in reality. it helps with being minimally verbal on occasion.

Tim loves his routine, and having kids was actually really helpful with that. before the kids, it was easier for things to pop up and interrupt the routine he and Carol had set up in their lives. after the kids, people were more understanding.

he fidgets and stims, a lot. whether its bouncing his leg, rocking in his chair, or picking at his fingers, chewing at his nails – he’s constantly moving.

he hates when people touch his things or rearrange them. he puts them in a very specific order and he doesn’t like it when that order is changed or switched around!

he’s SUPER clumsy. he always bumps into things or knocks over a vase of flowers that Carol had JUST put on the table. he constantly bruises himself because of this, too.

both Tim and Carol are obviously huge advocates in regards to mental health. they educate others on autism and hold little events at the library. he’s not as awkward interacting with people he knows and trusts, but he kinda shuts down when talking to a complete stranger. its just hard to connect the same way.

Mr. and Mrs. Templeton's Wedding Photos

You're invited to the wedding of Theodore Lindsey "Ted" Templeton Jr and Diamond Destiny "DD" Gardner.

These two have been friends since they were babies, and they promised that they would always protect and encourage each other. You'd think that their contrasting personalities and interests would drive them apart, but they actually bring them closer.

Ted's big-shot, strictly business, and goal-oriented personality needs DD's creative, carefree, and Tulip-like personality to keep him grounded and to remind him not to be a workaholic like her parents Henry and Sarah were. and to remind him to visit his family, especially his brother, way more often than he does.

Their relationship dynamics are very similar to Tulip and Junior's. DD's "ninja skills" come quite in handy working as a bodyguard for a rich and successful businessman.

Their ship name is BossNinja, BossDiamond, and BossDestiny. (You pick)

Sorry if the relationship facts seem a little random. I'm just writing at the top of my head. 😐

(If you want more facts about my ship, you can see them on my DeviantArt)

(after winning a game of darts)

Kate: Suck it, Yelena.

Yelena: Excuse me?

Kate: You. Suck.

Yelena: No, no, Kate Bishop. You suck.

Natasha: Excuse me. I hate to interrupt, but may I make a suggestion?

(while staring at both of them, Natasha picks up and throws a dart without looking, hitting the bullseye)

Natasha: You both suck.

Kate: (gasps) She's mean.

Yelena: True. It's inspiring.

Here are the Contenders and Rules. Dreamworks did not theatrically release any films in 2018.

(Also feel free to add in the tags or notes whether I should still keep running the Dreamworks Tournament separate from the Illumination Tournament in the coming years)
