We Have Our First Look At The Live-Action Dora the Explorer Movie And Yeah, It Looks Very Weird And Deeply Unsettling

There's just something deeply unsettling about seeing her in the flesh.

You know those photosets or videos you sometimes see on Facebook of a bunch of things that are just not right? Like a single book out of order, or someone eating a Kit-Kat the wrong way?

You know how, despite the fact that everything is actually fine with the world, it makes you feel deeply unsettled, like something is fundamentally wrong with the world?

 

Unfortunately, we must add another cursed image to that ever-growing list: The first official picture of actress Isabela Moner as the live-action version of the pre-school cartoon character Dora The Explorer.

Whilst this image is definitely “official”, the best way to describe it is akin to those hyper-realistic drawings of cartoon characters that try to give them semi-human facets like proper skins and hair.

Just look at it. This is a crime upon nature itself.

And yes, that is the hyper-violent Sicario: Day Of the Soldado being mentioned in the same breath as Dora The Explorer, a cartoon character for literal babies.

Even more concerning is that the movie is being produced by Platinum Dunes, which is headed by the king of explosions himself, Michael Bay, and Paramount Pictures, the studio that just tried to kill Tom Cruise for the sixth time in two decades.

Look, I’ve got nothing. This is just… It’s something? This is way too unsettling and strange and if it were up to us, we’d forget about it completely.

Unfortunately, it’s coming out in August 2019, whether we like it or not.
