DreamMachine Episode 47: Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken
7In this episode of DreamMachine, Arun and Patricia discuss about the 2023 DreamWorks animated film Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken. Ruby Gillman is a 16 year old teenager who is trying to fit in at her high school, but is restricted by her mother whenever she goes to activities involving with water. One day when trying to ask her crush to the prom, he is knocked into the water. Ruby rescues, but realizes that she's a kraken. Chelsea, the most popular girl at the school, is a mermaid and befriends Ruby since they're outcasts who hide their true identity. Ruby learns more about her lineage and Chelsea convinces Ruby to locate a trident so the long battle between mermaids and krakens would end for good.
When the film premiered in theaters, it was a box office bomb making $46 million dollars out of a $70 million dollar budget. Critics and viewers hated it calling it a mediocre film that gave away too much on its trailer and a genuine disappointment after DreamWorks made a massive comeback with The Bad Guys and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish a year prior.
