U-Bobby van Jaarsveld, isihlabani somculo we-pop kanye nomculi oqopha kakhulu eshadini, wengeze isici esikhethekile lapho ecula inguqulo yasendaweni yengoma entsha yetimu yochungechunge lwesiqephu se-Thomas & Friends . Lo mdlalo wenzeke embukisweni wakamuva waseNingizimu Afrika wefilimu yezingane ethi Thomas & Friends: Big World! Izigigaba Ezinkulu! I-Movie e-Ster Kinekor Sandton ngeSonto, 16 Septemba.
Ngaphambi kwesixuku esichichimayo esihlanganisa ozakwethu be-Mattel SA, abezindaba, osaziwayo, omama bama-blogger, abanethonya nama-mini-VIPs, u-Bobby wabelane ngogqozi lokuvuleleka ekuhloleni nasezingeni, ukusebenzelana nabantu abahlukene, nokwenza abangane abasha. Kokubili iculo nefilimu, kusho u-Bobby (ophelezelwa umkakhe nezingane emdlalweni wokuqala), aqukethe imilayezo yobumbano futhi afanekisela amathuba angapheli akhona ngokushesha nje lapho sisebenza ndawonye.
I-movie yemizuzu engu-80 iyifilimu ye-13 yobude besici esitebeleni sika- Thomas & Friends futhi ithathwa njengekhulukazi lomkhiqizo, eligqamile futhi elihlobene kakhulu nokukhululwa kuze kube manje. Izithameli zizohlangabezana nomugqa wetulo ogcwele ama-twist, nezingcezu zomculo zangempela zokujabulisa izingane zasenkulisa nabazali bazo. Ngokuhambisana nokufuna ukuhambisana nesizukulwane esilandelayo, imuvi iphinde yethula iqembu labangane abahlukahlukene - okuhlanganisa no-Nia, injini yamathangi yase-Afrika evela eKenya - futhi ibahambise ohambweni olumangalisayo lomhlaba.
UTerusha Naidoo, oyiMenenja yomkhiqizo wakwaMattel SA, uthi, “Ukuzibandakanya komlingiswa wase-Afrika kwengeza isici esikhethekile kule ndaba. U-Nia unethemba langempela kanye nomlingiswa onamandla wokulangazelela onekhampasi yokuziphatha okuhle. Umusa wakhe onamandla umnika ubuntu obuzothakaselwa abafana namantombazane.”
Izithameli zangeSonto nazo zimthandile lo mlingiswa omusha, nama-blogger endawo abelana ngemibono yawo: “Ngiyayithanda indlela i-Afrika emelwe ngayo efilimini,” kusho uLebogang Xolo we- MrsXLifestyle ku-Instagram. "Umlingisi wesifazane omusha onezimpande zase-Afrika!" ijabulele i-Laetitia Corder ye- Poppet Patch ku-Facebook .
Kulo mbukiso bekukhona nabantu abadumile okubalwa kubo uThembisa Modada; Melanie Ramjee; uLisa Koppel (unkosikazi kaDanny K)' udadewabo kaBobby, uKarlien van Jaarsveld; ULynn Forbes nomzukulu wakhe uKairo Forbes; uJennifer noLoyiso Bala; kanye noClarissa Manacas. USureshnie Rider usebenze njenge-MC; amandla akhe okutheleleka adala isasasa elikhulu esixukwini.
U-Naidoo uyachaza ukuthi, njengoba uThomas & Friends esenengoma eyindikimba efanayo iminyaka engu-73, kuyadabukisa ukuthi leli culo selatholakala e-SA. U-Blogger uNatasha Kisten-Skuce we- Fit Like Mummy uvumile ku-Twitter wathi, “U-Bobby ushiye ingane yami eneminyaka engu-10 ubudala ingakwazi ukukhuluma ngesikhathi kuboniswa okokuqala. #Inkanyezi."
Futhi mhlawumbe izwi lokugcina kufanele kube iseluleko sika-blogger u-Laura Kim le Roux kamama Ohlukunyeziwe ekhasini lakhe le-Facebook: “Amaholide aseduze; engeza le filimu ohlwini lwakho lwezinto ongazenza!”
