WILD CHILD (2008) Extended Opening Sequence - Poppy and Friends

Rough cut of the full (missing) opening sequence of 2008 movie "Wild Child" starring Emma Roberts. For reasons unknown, although many of these scenes were featured in the promotional trailers, they were cut from the final version of the movie.
For anyone that loves this movie I think these scenes definitely give a better insight into Poppy's lavish world, and her father's pent up frustration, that ultimately lead her to boarding school.

[@kimberleywilliams7802]

they should have never cut this scene, it provided soooo much context to her life and who she was before she left. it would have shown how well rounded she became and how much character growth she had. and also how much of a vapid shallow jerk she was before she left, so her nasty language to ruby about the girls in england and her overall demeanor would have made more sense.

[@izzysophie1874]

i feel like they should've left it in, but when first watching it, you didn't need to know anything else to her character other than that she was a brat. and that's what they showed in the original movie. it was pretty self-explanatory for me. but i do agree. should've left a few bits of this scene in

I also feel like it gave more context to her boyfriend as well, and how much of a jerk he was compared to Freddie

I still blame her dad who didnt console poppy or molly after their mother's death, dated a girl younger than him and looks like she could be her sister, didnt bother to have his daughters get along with his girlfriend before inviting her to move in with them, and then dealing with this whole situation by shipping and abandoning his daughter in a boarding school with no contact. He didnt even check on her when she was about to be expelled or when there was a school fire that she was in.

@John Hooper it's not like she blamed men because of she's a woman? But there are some correct perspective here. Instead of sent poppy to english school, why don't poppy's dad tried to introduce his girlfriend to poppy? Poppy seems like loves her mother so much that it made her hurts to seeing her father having a new girlfriend. I think this is why she said the father can be blamed too..

Rewatching this opening, i really wish they kept it. I understand it’s a pretty lengthy opening but they easily could have cut down certain scenes to bring the runtime down, like shortening clips a little or speeding up dialog, cause it makes her behavior make more sense when she gets to Britain. It makes her relationship more understandable because how creepy and weird her Cali boyfriend was. Plus it shows how much she relied on her friends despite then being fake and make her being sad away from them more realistic.

Watching this extended scene made me realize Poppy’s character. Standard rich, spoiled, mean and chooses a crowd of popular socialite party girls, and so as said in the movie behaves like an asshole. I look back in the movie and in this scene and see that her sister Molly sees how Poppy and her friends act and behave, plus in the movie she already could tell that Ruby wasn’t the type of friend for Poppy. Her dad’s girlfriend was trying to be nice and feel accepted by her but Poppy had to behave like an asshole because of the whole her dad’s already forgotten about her mother and already moved on. I mean yeah I get it her dad should’ve console her after her mother died her feelings about it and his new girlfriend, but he made the right decision to send her to Abby Mount as such it dose straightened her out and learn about proper friendship. Wish they didn’t cut this entire scene from the movie.

[@gabrielleribeiro8054]

After seeing this and the final cut where Poppy tells her boarding school principal she only reads Us Weekly and tabloid magazines I finally get the confirmation that her “malibu moment! Who are we?” Mantra before selfies was meant to imply she and her friends were wannabe D-lists celebrities aspiring to be photographed by paparazzi while shopping and etc, and since they weren’t famous, they used this mantra semi-ironically because they believed one day they would get their pictures taken instead of having to take it themselves? Did anybody also have the same hypothesis? The malibu moment was the most random part of the movie for sure, and maybe the who are we? As a question also implies these girls don’t know who they are and are trying to emulate what’s cool on tabloids which is what Poppy is told the whole time throughout the movie hence she finds her true identity at the end, where she’s able to keep some of her personality traits from her malibu past self but water them down so she’s able to function outside the malibu neverland.

Also the dancing scene with her friend. We get more of their relationship. And finally the one with her step mom. I think that speaks for itself.

[@Spoiledbabe1011]

I will never understand why they cut this

[@victoredwardo9485]

Same

[@vigo823]

Trey G yesss like the car scenes omg

[@jayabhakar6309]

Though poppy had a great fun life in america.. she had a lovely house... the positive thing about abbey mount, is that she changed into a better person... But still.. they shouldn't hav deleted this scene!!

[@Leahjade2802]

I can’t imagine these girls in lockdown 😂😂

[@aussiefurbymogwaifan6621]

This comment makes me think of the TikTok influencer parties

[@ReneeTopanga]

Omg the WHO ARE WE makes so much sense now after this sequence lmfao

[@cynthiavillalpa8914]

I still blame her dad who didn't console poppy or molly after their mother's death, dated a girl younger than him and looks like she could be her sister, didn't bother to have his daughters get along with his girlfriend before inviting her to move in with them, and then dealing with this whole situation by shipping and abandoning his daughter in a boarding school with no contact. He didn't even check on her when she was about to b

[@สามชาติสามภพลิขิตเหนือเขนย]

Stepmom seems actually nice...🙂

[@kristiehoffrichter5874]

I can understand why this extended scene was cut from the movie. In past I've seen trailer briefly showed parts of scenes. Still I always wondered how all the events leading to Poppy throwing the party and being sent to boarding school played out. I agree this should have been added to the movie. Its not everyday wefind out what Ruby was like in earlier teens and see the new stepmother that's mentioned in the movie looks like. She seems genuine kind person. Deserves a bit better. Finally have closure. 🙏❤ am I the only one who thinks the stepmother should have been added with father near the ending scene when Poppy was back in Malibu with her new friends and boyfriend?

[@adenweiner5573]

No I think that as well

[@lillmango]

They really should have a fence there.

[@FreakyFreakyBaby]

glad they left this on the cutting room floor, and yes it does make things 'clearer' but its so superfluous. we KNEW this already, we knew poppy came from this sort of background, we knew her dads girlfriend was the reason she fucked up and left. this was just extra minutes at the end of the day and seeing the main character struggle to function in a new environment is way more entertaining than a stock-standard LA party scene imo

[@lssmble]

OKAY BUT THE SOUNDTRACK IN THIS MOVIE WAS SOOO GOOD

[@cesarjotaga]

Excuse me but I've seen this whole scene when I watched this movie for the first time. HOW COME YOU GUYS HAVEN'T SEEN IT? Like they just skipped to the boarding school? I really don't wanna be the only one who saw this whole scene please tell me

[@cutemissbubbly]

If I remember correctly it skips to the part where she jumps into the water and then she goes to St Trinians but I haven’t seen the rest

[@khadleyboyd]

I'm so happy this was cut. I certainly wouldn't have connected to Poppy seeing how hostile and rude she is here. As much as I get the whole film is about character development, I feel that I wouldn't have even bothered watching it with this as the intro.

[@axden4432]

I feel like they should have left this in it adds so much more context to her life and it makes the movie a lot more clear

[@waverleyb2443]

The way she said "do you even remember mum" had so much pain behind it omg

[@31oise]

They should've kept this in. I'm watching this now and everything makes so much sense.

[@ddwow566]

Woah she has a lot of friends..

[@Oldaccount-wx2lg]

their not friends their basically strangers she met randomly in a public place. and they just use her for her money, real friends don't do that.

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

No she didn’t.. none of those people were her friends or even remotely cared

[@itsjemmabond]

Nah. Chances are she announced the party on social media a lá Project X.

[@catmerchant8699]

I’m just gonna pretend this was in the movie

[@caitlincordura2483]

its 2020 and i still want this to have a sequel

[@Randy218_]

As what? 😂 Isn't she like 40?

[@hailsvlogs1188]

The fact that there’s actually girls out there who act like this🙄so self centred

[@naturalbodyandskincare9965]

hails Vlogs There is??

[@hailsvlogs1188]

Natural Body and skincare ahah yess

[@agenttheater5]

Like I said, send them to St Trinians. They way they keep acting like they're better than everyone else, they won't last longer than 5 minutes, and their habit of going 'ew ew ew' every time they touch dirt will definitely put them at the bottom of the schools food chain. And when I say St Trinians I mean all versions of it, the cartoon series by Roald Searle, the 50s and 60s movie series (don't bother with the 80s movie, that one was a dud) and the 2007 and 2009 movies.

[@hailsvlogs1188]

@Lego Ninjago lmao yes actually they’re girls like this tons where I live

[@audiosmadeforyou8614]

im so mad that they didn’t add this it would of made so much sense in the movie

[@asumi7984]

I just realized one of Poppy's friends is played by the actress who played that girl that bullied Violet from AHS murder house what are the odds

[@agenttheater5]

I'm not asking whether or not the vibrating is an effective form of working out, I'm asking what the logic is to exercise after getting your hair and nails done.

[@gabbygoodall5708]

so am i the only one who is dying to know what happened at the end with her and freddie?

[@GMCDgraffti]

Imagine being that Rosemary chick and only having once scene, and then being cut all together 😂

[@danielleyouie8028]

Ok as much as I love this, I actually don't think it would have made the movie better. The original sets up her character so well as a wild child hence the title as opposed to a popular girl. We don't need like 8 minutes of the set up for a party and all this BC everything in the original is clear and just enough to keep us enticed.

[@RolDarryl]

So, Poppy and Regina George have the same car 😂

[@BlackCatFilmProductions]

I would have love to have this as the opening sequence here. This give us a bit more of a detail description of Poppy and her (sort of) friends & her ex-Boyfriend Roddy (which I never know existed).

[@itsjemmabond]

Actually, Roddy was in at least one scene in the official release.

[@BlackCatFilmProductions]

@@itsjemmabond Yeah, but we didn't see them romantic involved in any of the movie scenes.

[@lahrain6633]

"I will want Angelina Jolie to adopt me." GURL SAME WHY THEY DIDN'T INCLUDE THIS IN THE MOVIE, THOUGH

[@natashaing4999]

Poppy reminds me of Sharpay Evans here 😂💅

[@directionersboo9242]

I wish they never cut this scene!!! Now everything is becoming clearer!!! The maibu momments selife, the dance and the dad gf 😂
