Yeah, I don't get it.
 
I never watched the show beyond the very early bits, but I did see the action scenes and ending scenes from the movie on YouTube. The way they animated the antagonist is phenomenal. The fluid movements and old school design really made Spinel stand out. Her eyes especially. Lot of expression and character in those eyes. I decided to rent it.
Really made me sad that most studios use 3D animation. We had something special in 2D you really can't capture with 3D.
Anyway. Spinel made me sad, the poor girl. Didn't expect that movie to have any real substance to it. Also didn't expect Rose to be such a massive cunt either but what can you do? I might see about watching the whole series to see how it's gotten.

So I have some knowledge of the show, and I don't plan to watch this movie

But can someone be so kind as to explain why people are whining about the series being ruined? Did the genderspecials Lord and savior Becky sugar not deliver?

They did deliver.

The movie is pretty good. It’s not Spiderverse good/ big-budget animated movie good. But it’s TV movie good. The issue is that the SU fandom is the wokest of them all and they have unreasonable standards of woke. Despite being the wokest mainstream American children cartoon ever.

You have people like Lily Orchard feeling like geniuses for pointing out that Morally ambiguous Rose Quartz is in fact not a perfect person (that’s kind of the point). Or how whatever metaphor of being LGBT it’s in their heads was offensive to their made up gender/situation. It’s never woke enough.

The fan base is incredibly toxic, but it’s the kind of people Sugar tries to appeal to, so that won’t ever change.

Still, it’s a competent show I really enjoy, hence me being here.

The protagonist is a cisgendered white male fighting an empire of evil women. Why SJWs latched onto this show in the first place is beyond me.

About that, although I don't agree just to be clear, I have seen a lot of the SU fandom considering Steven being a FTM transgender given half of his was Rose Quartz. Pretty sure that was a comment with thousands of upvotes on Reddit.

Another way everyone has their woke interpretations.

Which was disproved in the season five finale when Steven was revealed to be his own unique person down to his core. If he’s ftm then so is any dude with a female mother.

Actually, that's exactly the episode that made them say that on Reddit. But again, as I said before, that's not my opinion. My point is that the fandom has ridiculous woke standards and they will attack the show when their headcanons don't match reality.

And now I’m reminded of the comic Lily had done of her OC edgelord murdering Steven becomes he believed in trying to solve things without violence.
Literal “nothing personal, kid” levels.

I like the art style of the background art, but the character design/plot seems not that great. Is it really worth watching? It seems sort of melodramatic.

Its not as melodramatic as it seems. It just seems that way because a lot of the times it gets dramatic is also when a big twist or lore reveal happens, so it gets talked about a lot.

There's a ton of filler that you can skip and it'll be fine, but the overall plot is pretty decent and I usually enjoy myself when watching the show. I'd say watch it if it piques your interest.
