Netizens Troll The Archies - Page 2

Vedang, Mihir, Dot. and Yuvraj are not star kids. Even the parents of Agastya are not stars. Only Suhana and Khushi are star kids.

Agastya is still a product and beneficiary of nepotism

Dot. and the other 3 boys are outsiders. So don't call this multiverse of nepotism.

Those people are added in for this exact reason. To make it seem like a fair project and not a nepotistic parade.

It's a fair project only. What seem like. Four worthy outsiders. One worthy insider. Two worthy starkids. All gave auditions to Zoya. All are in Archies on their merit.

The outsiders are just the salad to the main course. We all know Agastya-Suhana and Khushi are the chicken and Zoya the chef

They meant main leads are star kids and supporting roles are outsiders.

Can Zoya make star kids supporting actors and other outsiders as main leads of the movie ?

In what universe is this not a nepo project?😆

When Netflix finally goes pay per view, the Bolly insiders who hijacked OTT will learn their actual worth.

Sorry, I adore SRK and think they don't make them better than Amitabh in terms of acting. But this project is on Netflix only because of nepotism. Imagine it with 8 random kids and same setting. It would've been mocked much worse than it is now. The entire vibe is so fake and wannabe.

What I find so interesting about this Archies thing, is that it sounds like people who grew up in India are the ones who read the Archies comics and are feeling nostalgic about it. I don't think a lot of NRIs or even milennials have read it. Which is totally fine, not a big deal.

But the thing is, they've created this movie that really has a Western-based vibe to it (with a bunch of Nepo products). Who is the audience that they are catering this to? International audiences have already seen a product based off the Archies - it's Riverdale. So they're not going to watch this. And based on the memes coming in, it doesn't look like those in India feel connected to this film either

I have not managed to find the name of outsiders.

Seriously! I totally relate with this.

I grew up reading chandamama, chacha chaudhary Naagraj and similar comics. The only archies i encountered was probably in the TOI newspaper but it was not very relatable.

I don't know about the younger generation of India though...
