This is not canon. I refuse to believe this is canon to the original 1982 Annie movie. I have never been more let down by a sequel in my life. What's so bad about it you ask?
Excellent question.
Atrocious writing, some of the laziest writing I've ever seen and doesn't even make sense as a sequel to Annie. The characters are nothing like the originals at all, they didn't even try to make them look or act similar at all.
Horrible directing, like if you think the Star Wars prequels have bad dialogue, wait til you watch this one. Also garbage cinematography, not even visually appealing in the slightest.
An absurd amount of cliches, mainly in the plot. If you want a movie where you can predict literally everything and also by the way Annie is a literal CRIME FIGHTER now, yeah I guess if that's your thing, watch it.
I could go further. It's not good. Not good by any sense of the word. I regret the day I laid eyes upon the thumbnail on Netflix and clicked "watch". The movie is so bad that it actually hurt my mental health. All I could think about for several days was the awful experience that was watching "Annie: A Royal Adventure". It haunted my thoughts day and night, I became an insomniac and had to start taking up to 10 mg of melatonin every night. I'm restless, tired, and depressed. I started seeing a therapist recently, he told me that I need to stop thinking about it so much and to not focus all my rage on it all the time, but I can't. No matter how hard I try, no matter how much melatonin I take, no matter how much media I consume at once to block out all possible thoughts of this movie, it still haunts my mind, constantly, like it's my own shadow. I don't know what to do anymore. I keep seeing visions of the bad guys popping roofies into my milk (which is an actual scene in the movie I'm not kidding) and the so called "Annie" singing tomorrow at the end of the film completely unprompted. Seriously, it was the most jarring, out of place musical number I've ever seen. I would rather watch the Human Centipede 1, 2, and 3 than watch even just that musical number again. There is nothing I can do to stop the visions, they have infiltrated even my sleep. It's all I see, and I don't know what to do.
If you are listening, I beg you, please do not watch it, do not put yourself though what I have experienced for the last 5 years. I wouldn't wish it upon anyone. If you do watch it, which I highly advise you don't, I pray that you are spared by God from the evil that will inevitably befall you. Stay away from "Annie: A Royal Adventure" at all costs.
