I got a mild chuckle out of that 2001 parody trailer. My granddaughter, 12yo and likely part of the target audience, wasn't impressed, didn't "get it," and is completely uninterested in the picture after she discovered it's "live action."
I am thinking the "target audience" for this is over 30. They have to walk a difficult line here in that if the picture were to be made to appeal to children that play with the dolls, it likely would have no appeal to adults. My guess here is that all of the jokes and gags are going to be aimed at forward thinking adults.
