    Jonah Hill made a Scorsese movie on SAG minimum and it was not necessarily a bad move for him, it really depend of the goal but doing small independent movie or having a small but good part on a Paul Thomas Anderson movie is not seen have having to do non-paying gig doing favors, but building your credibility for the next one.

     

    That exactly the type of stuff is team could hide for him, you seem to be saying about the same thing.

     

    You do realize that SAG minimum you still get paid. Why would his team hide paid work from him? Especially good paid work? They don't get paid if he doesn't get paid either.

    It is really hard to know in details (is team could hide from him non paying opportunities he does not even know he got, you often have to go around actor agents to get them in a small role or big non paying one).

     

    But it is somewhat possible, at least movie wise, the interview was around 2 month after Aladdin release, long time but not that long it was just a billion dollar movie and a lot of big roles are made with some archetype in mind.

     

    I umm think at the very least the lead actor of Aladdin should never have to do a non-paying opportunity again unless doing a friend a favor. I'm thinking he could like guest star on a few procedurals, maybe get a TV show opportunity, play a smaller but still significant role in big and indie movies. But I'm guessing the reason he isn't has more to do with the size of roles they are looking for.

    I wonder if he's only trying to go for movie lead roles. If so, yeah he's not going to find many. If he's looking for any role regardless of size then I don't buy he can't get an audition.

    Never stopped @Water Bottle from smacktalking things he didn't like. :ph34r:

     

    The trick is to just do it in like, a respectful manner.

     

    Just think of it as a challenge. ;)

     

    Me? Smacktalk?

    Except Frozen has been everywhere since 2013. You can't exit the house without seeing some little kid with Frozen merch.  Anyways I'm not saying that I'm right. It's all based on a subjective feeling.

     

    That was the case for the first year or so after it came out. But it's been six years lol. I haven't seen a little kid with Frozen merch or anything in years.

    Is it though? I mean it was a cute movie but that's about it .  I might be wrong but I just haven't seen Zootopia mentioned anywhere for years now.

     

    Do you hang around areas where people talk about kids films like Zootopia? Like the people I frequent with didn't mention Frozen until marketing for this movie started to ramp up.

    I honestly have never ever bought tickets for multiple showtimes of a movie before I see it. If I end up seeing it in theaters more than once (rare occurence, I think last time was Age of Ultron), it's always after I see it the first time and have confirmed not only do I like it, I like it to want to see it again so soon after seeing it.

    Why does age matter? It is an animated musical with two female leads. I like:

     

    - animated movies

    - musicals

    - female leads


    ETA: Also weren’t you like SUUUPER hyped “it a gonna be the biggest movie of the year” for Incredibles last year? So were you wrong to be excited for that?

     

     

    Frozen II is made primarily for kids. Like it's fine to like something that's meant for kids. All the power to you, heck I like Zootopia and Inside Out. But I'm not hyped for Zootopia 2 or Inside Out 2 at all. I am excited to check out the Tom Hanks movie coming out this weekend. That looks interesting.

    Disney's not including a short before Frozen 2 like they usually do for all of their movies apparently so I'm assuming that's their way of saying "we're sorry" for making everyone who saw Coco in theaters sit through that interminable Frozen "short."

     

    That short was horrible (as well as the other one in front of Cinderalla?). It made me go being neutral to Frozen (a movie I have not seen) to deciding to never see it. Just terrible. Coco was good though.

    That's one person. Doesn't speak for everyone.

     

    FWIW it's selling well for the night shows as well throughout the weekend around here and I think it's safe to say it wouldn't be filling during hours in which kids aren't out in full force (like they will be for the matinee/evening shows this weekend) if its appeal didn't crossover to adults as well. It's no different than Pixar's sequels.

     

    I'm sure it will be a big hit. I'm sure you will love the movie.

     

    Dont mind me lol. I go to the movies almost every single weekend. I'm pretty sure the only non-Fox Disney movie I've seen this year is Endgame and Captain Marvel. That likely won't change until Star Wars.
