So I take it y'all know Spirit, Stallion fo the Cimarron?? If you don't, you haven't lived. It's LITERALLY the best movie in existence.
Which brings me to my point: There's a Netflix adaptation... and it just... it's garbage. It ruins Spirit's whole character, for a number of reasons.
First up, since the original Spirit's design wasn't beautiful enough (IT WAS!), they decided to give him a blaze (which makes him look much worse in my opinion).
And now, for the big fragging problem I have with this whole series....
IT ONLY TAKES SPIRIT FIVE MINUTES TO BOND TO A FRAGGING BRAINDEAD IMBECILIC 12 YEAR OLD GIRL CALLED LUCKY??!?!??!?!??!?!
Nuh uh. Nope. No way. No. Zilch. Zero. N. O.
Just... just NO.
That.. HE WAS THE... SPIRIT WHO... COULDN'T BE...
YOU MIGHT AS WELL JUST CALL HIM "EASILY TAMED", NOT SPIRIT!!!!
CLEARLY, Netflix overlooked one VERY important detail... THE FACT THAT SPIRIT COULDN'T BE TAMED OR BONDED BY OR TO ANYONE! SO HE'S LEIT NOT EVEN SPIRIT ANYMORE!!!
Tell me whether or not you agree with me and why. But that's all I have to say about this garbage adaptation.
I gotta hand it to ya, Netflix. You managed to turn the MOST legendary, iconic hero tales known for his wild spirit into the MOST spineless horse ever, along with a dumb annoying stupid 12 YEAR OLD as if tHAT wasn't enough.
I hate Lucky. I hate the remodelled "Spirit". I hate how Netflix named their dumb stupid show something that will NEVER amount to the subject just for cheap marketing.
Conclusion:
Spirit: Stallion fo the Cimarron is THE BEST. 10/10. RECOMMENDED FOR LITERALLY ANYONE. The most legendary movie ever. infinity/5 stars.
Spirit: Riding Free is the WORST. 0/10. Recommended to only those who want to watch a series featuring a fake horse that will never amount to the real deal and a dumb bratty 12 year old. -infinity/5 stars. CHEAP RIPOFF!
i agree. i mean like nice try netflix but ya flopped. when i first saw the show i decided to watch it for laughs and giggles and i know they are just trying to appeal to horsy type people butttt.
ya know they could’ve just made up ANNNNNYYYY other horse to be hers. but no. they used spirit to draw people in, because spirit did so well.
Wait... was the horse in Riding Free Spirit, or one of Spirit and Rain's foals? I thought that's why the horse was so docile. Not that I've watched it, I just thought this was true. But you're right; ripoff.
I ARGEE !!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!!!!!! I'M SO GLAD SOMEBODY SAID THIS!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU, ECHO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
C'est une pomme de terre pourrie!!!!!!!!
(that says: it is a rotten potato)
I agree River and Echo, It is not about spirit at all. Its about lucky and her friends problems. Spirit having to keep saving lucky's butt is getting old. And also it shouldn't even be called SPIRIT riding free because there is absolutely 0 relation between the two. Where's Rain? Where's Esperanza? Spirit would never let himself be tamed by a stupid little girl. The only relation there is, is the fact that they are both dun stallions, thats IT! They took spirit Slapped a blaze on his face (where did the blaze even come from?) threw him in a garbage bag and said: "Hey lets make a show about this spirit in a trash bag. So much for Spirit that couldn't be broken. They ruined the best movie of all time!!!!
Spirit stallion of the cimarron: Infinity and beyond\5 stars
Spirit riding free: 0\5 stars
ok I do love spirit the movie,
but I do still love Spirit riding free, the only things I wish they could change was WHY THE HECK DOES SPIRIT HAVE A BLAZE! HE HAS NO BLAZE!!!! the Aunt Cora, Yea IK she is from the City but EMBRACE THE COUNTRY LIFE!!! and yea a few of the seasons could hv been better but thats about it.
I completely agree 100000000000% Spirit stallion of Cimmarron was my FAVORITE movie and it STILL IS!!!!!!!
I don't like riding free for all of those reasons and one more.
The first 2 seasons weren't bad. They were all about adventure, and horses, and the three main characters riding off into the sunset on their 3 beautiful horses. But, after those 2 seasons, everything crashed and burned. The next seasons weren't even about the horses anymore!!! It was just Lucky's family drama and Lucky doing stupid things that get her in trouble. ITS CALLED SPIRIT RIDING FREE FOR A REASON!!!!!!! The real name of the show should be called Spirit: Having to deal with Lucky's Drama and Save her from her Problems.
I rate -20/0
