The comments for the trailer on facebook are somewhat more positive. A lot of "This look beautiful but th cgi is weird looking"

I'm not surprised the verified audience rating is lower for Lion King than Aladdin. After I watched it I knew the legs wouldn't be as great as Aladdin's. . I thought Aladdin was a genuinely good movie that critics were a bit un fair to and can 100% understand why audiences love it so much. With Lion King, although I did really enjoy it I think critics were more on target in their assessment of the film. It will still make a lot of money though

ANYWAY...stream Lion King: The Gift on spotify for clear skin

I really liked the just can't wait to be kind sequence. Also there were a few scenes where the hyper realism looked really beautiful.

I enjoyed Donald Glover's voice acting for Simba but his singing in Can you feel the love tonight left a lot to be desired

They should have done it like garfield lol or like made it obvious it was a costume

i disagree. She had much more agency in the live action adaption. Her character was improved.

Mmm I just saw this...I liked it for what it was which was basically a scene for scene remake. Rogen and Eichner highlights. See with Aladdin I actually though it improved on some aspects of the animated film (filled in some plot holes and improved Jasmine's character drastically). That's why I thought the reviews were unfair for Aladdin. This didn't improve any aspects from the animated film at all. Almost everything was inferior to the animation. I really felt like they could have done so much more. I still really enjoyed it though. "Just can't wait to be King" was very well done. The child actors were very talented. I actually enjoyed the "Be Prepared" number. I don't get the hate for it. It was different but it wasn't bad. Hakuna Matata was okay but I felt they could have done more with it. James Earl Jones was great as Mufasa. My audience was full with a lot of kids. The audience seemed to enjoy it. Although one girl wa scared I think it will have decent legs but not strong as Aladdin's. The actors in Aladdin gave it a lot of charisma and it was actually a bit different than the animated movie. This was exactly the same. It will definitely do well at the boxoffice though.

Who ever did the CGI for this movie didn't know how to work with black people and our lips lol. JHud and Derulo just look odd....

I said from the beginning their was no way this could work in live action lmao

I had to rewatch it because I started laughing lmao. It look like a snapchat filter, but strangely not as bad as I thought

I love Javier Bardem but if Halle is the only black actor it will add to the suggestions it was just stunt or PC casting. And I'm a huge chloexhalle fan. I'm a big theatre fan and I'm fine with color blind casting in general on stage (aside from when race is relevant to character) I can admit it usually doesn't work as well in film. I watched Brandy's Cinderella a lot as a kid and although I was fine with that it was a tv movie targeted at kids made in the 90s I don't think a big theatrical release will work as well. We'll just wait and see though

Honestly I'm wary about this movie now. I thought they were going to cast a black actor as King Triton. The black community isn't going to show up and support this in large numbers if Halle is the only black character. We'll see with the sisters....

hopefully the sisters and mom. Halle is not mixed in real life but I guess they were really considering Zendaya that whole time because this casting is lmao

yah I don't get the hate for him. He seem rally talented from the skits I see him do on his late show and his tony award opening.

LMAO at that BTS video. this is going to be so messy. I can't wait.

elvis has always been controversial lol. But moreso today for sure.

I know Rob Marshall is a cheesy director who's hit or miss but why are we acting like he isn't an oscar nominated director and didn't direct a Best Picture Winner. I adore Baz but technically he's never even been nominated for directing lol.

it honestly looks good to me. The marketing campaign already seems pretty aggressive for this I can see hit being a moderate hit

Honestly people hated hard on the Aladdin casting and the Aladdin cast was the best part of the movie. Sure this seems like stunt casting but at least Harry can sing.

I just have a feeling the Elvis movie is going to be controversial. Sure ppl will hate on this movie but in the end it will be a family movie people will go see. I really think people are underestimating the potentially controversy of the Elvis movie, and I'm a huge Baz Luhrmann fan. Like I think he's brilliant. Moulin Rouge is one of my top 5 favourite movie. Like sure Elvis probably a more interesting role and might do well but I feel like Elvis's name is going to be dragged by the media which will hurt awards prospects. Also the reviews for the last few Baz projects are sorta mixed . We'll see next year which would have been better for Harry though lmao.

that was never reported by all the official sources that this is (hollywood reporter, variety etc) it was reported by all these fringe sources and then went viral. So then she was asked about it and then her response was then reported by stuff like hollywood reporter

I feel like it's always the same group of guys in the discussion when looking for white guys under 30 lolol. If Ansel wan't in WSS people would probably be saying him. But honestly I prefer Harry to both Timothee and Ansel.

I'm sure Disney wouldn't have leaked it if it wasn't close to being a sure thing. It would be really embarrassing if he said no and they were to lose on the casting
