Hey Arnold!: The Movie

It doesn't have a very original plot, sure, but it beats the rejected love story between Arnold and Helga that played at the end.
A small piece of dialogue managed to completely destroy this movie.

The series wasn't shy in portraying Helga's sick and twisted obsession for Arnold, and while in reality people would say she's ripe for a lifetime lockdown in a mental institution, we still found it to be a better love story than Twilight.
I dare to bet people cheered when they kissed in the movie, and so, the creators could've left their fans with some satisfaction, but no. As some kind of weird joke, they ended the movie with Helga throwing around excuses and Arnold not even bothering.
We all know that none of this is ever going to be explored again, because the series has ended, so this is what we have to live with.

I'd like to say they purposely created an open ending to their relationship for fans to fill in, but the fact that Helga doesn't even have the balls to stand by her choice of mouthraping Arnold leaves you with the question if she and Arnold will ever have a relationship. Arnold didn't even care or said anything decisive.

There is a huge lack of balls within these characters.


Whatever a creator's choices are, fans will do whatever they want anyway, we didn't need this. The movie just gave the shittiest conclusion after so many episodes of Helga and Arnold romance, while it was so easy to give people what they wanted.
It's not like fans would've protested on the streets if the movie ended with the two of them holding hands.
