A TAT-sponsored movie, which will hit theaters next month, is being ridiculed by netizens today for its extremely tacky posters and title straight from Google Translate.
The new movie, amazingly titled “Prince Buffy The Heart Yamagushi Nging” or just “New Prince With Cute Hearts” in Thai, is released on Nov. 26.
Jokes about the movie and the princes spread online as Thai netizens struggled to deal with how bad the film looks.
“Is the background the Windows XP wallpaper?,”said one user.
“This looks like a cover of a Morlam CD,” said another.
“New princes? So were they princesses before?” said a confused netizen.
Many netizens pointed out that the poster looks like an election campaign picture you would see on electric poles or by the side of roads.
The film has been retitled, “The New Prince” after the internet mockery while the Thai Ministry of Culture considers it to be one of the films to help preserve Thai culture.
It also stars Jonas Anderson, a well-known Swedish luk-thung singer, and Cara, a has-been actress who is trying to make her comeback in the film.
Similar to, but definitely worse than “The Princess Diaries”, the plot centers around four men who live upcountry. One day, they are told they have royal blood, and have to move to Bangkok.
They are then faced with many challenges, and as the story unfolds, it is hard to say whether they will be princes or Korean pop stars.
As rumors spread on social media about the trailer’s ability to make viewers nauseous, the producer of the film said “the first posters were only unofficial versions.”
Although it is still unclear whether or not Microsoft Paint was used to make the posters, it can be confirmed that Google Translate was used to please the fangirls of Korean boy bands.
Hopes are high the film will break records, as the worst movie in history.
