Kevin Spacey is such a great actor, it sucks that this is happening to him. Hope somehow it's proven that he's innocent.
LOL, you spent the last year throwing tantrums about "the monster" Johnny Depp, so reading this post makes my head explode from the overdose of sheer hypocrisy and ignorance. It shows that you judge people by the simple criteria of which company they work for and in which franchise they're featured in, which, for me, is just pure sickness...

Valerian rules. Don’t believe the haters.
Seen it, forgot it, lol.
But seriously, I really wanted to love it, the comic book was revolutionary, but the movie was just... meh. The leads were awful, the story was predictable, only the visuals were stunning, but that's not enough anymore. -

God Paramount is having an awesome fucking year to be honest. Quiet Place and Fallout will both likely make by top 10 of the year list, and this is shaping up to be great as well.
Yep, it's great to see both it and Sony pulling themselves together, i was afraid both would be sold to a bigger studio, but now, it seems they're safe.

I don't think the fact that it's an original property is making all these movies bomb, it's rather because they suck balls. Valerian was mediocre at best, WiT and Nutcracker were travesties, so seeing them bomb is making me happy, actually, as it shows that GA won't absorb anything just because it looks pretty. Studios have to put their effort if they want a franchise, just look at Paramount, they had Transformers as their cash cow, then it started bombing because of their laziness, so they brought the right people to put it back in the place, and they're looking at a moderate hit that will revitalize the franchise for the coming years.

I don't know why, but I highly doubt you've even seen the movie... 🙄

How is transformer or not transformer a relevant variable here ? I know it is a fanboy thread, but franchise a movie is from is virtually irrelevant specially in a reboot context like this.
I swear, some DC fans are pathetic excuses for human beings, they constantly need to put down other movies or franchises in order to make them feel good about the thing they (supposedly) love. I'm far from a Transformers fan, but seeing Paramount taking notes from the audience and delivering an excellent product makes me happy. Also, seeing Aquaman getting great reviews is also making me happy since that means more competition, which is always good. Thinking that a shitload of critics have some sort of a bias against a superhero franchise is delusional at best, wildly idiotic and retarded at worst.

Let's see how they behave after Bombita's box office performance.
The way you behave since March 2016?

Depp is a dumb, Amber is also a dumb (yes, she did the same Depp did for her with another one).
Rowling did nothing to Amber.
There are LOTS OF PEOPLE involved with the movies, and we can´t say the movies deserve to flop just because of the presence of Depp and Amber. But yes, Rowling/ Yates didn´t do a very good movie, so we can understand the underperformance. Let´s wait for Aquaman.
And I don´t understand why someone hates Depp so much and wishes a flop for the movie, but at the same time praises Batman vs Superman, that has Ben Affleck.
Maybe fanaticism or something like that... 🤷♂️

The bombing of Crimes of Grindelwald is one of the most satisfying, well deserved of all time after what JK Rowling did to Amber Heard.
LOL, I feel like every single one of your posts can be put in two categories:
1. Weird obsession over Zack Snyder
2. Hating Johnny Depp to sound "woke"
P.S. The movie didn't bomb.

If someone still have doubts about the quality of this movie after the excellent receptions on screenings... Disney submitted MPR for 17 categories on Oscar.

The BBC did a very good adaptation in the 80s/90s though the production values were minimal to say the least
Heard about it, but since I'm not a kid anymore, I bet it would be unwatchable for me now... 😁
I'm patiently waiting for Netflix to blow my mind once the new show (and movies!?) come out.
-
Well, films set in the universe of Narnia have the disadvantage that other franchises don't. Most people have read only one, max 2 books, while HP or LoTR are universally recognised serials. However, I do hope Netflix will make an excellent adaptation of the series, there is so much potential there that Disney should've used, they completely mismanaged their own HP franchise.

I would not call Lalle Hallstrom or Joe Johnston untalented, but it clear that Hallstrom was the wrong choice for this material, and Johnson could not save it.
The writing is at fault with this movie, not the directors. When you think about it, nearly all of Disney's live-action fairy-tales suffer from that same problem.

Maybe "The Nutcracker" works as a ballet,,but just does not work as a movie.
It has more to do with the fact that some pretty untalented people got their hands on the source material.

I just wish they’d let their wealth of talented animators draw a damn feature. Disney’s entire legacy came from a pencil. It frustrates me no end that a studio who make so much money from franchises won’t put aside a few hundred million and let their artists make a proper hand drawn feature. No matter what it does. Just get back to at least giving the world a great animated film that’s made for the ages.
I recognise it’s a business. I know their computer animation is spectacular and I know hand drawn takes so much longer. But there’s something really sad about them not making hand drawn movies at the moment as there’s no reason for it.
For the love of the art and the medium just stop making these expensive Nutcracker and Alice run of the mill pictures and invest it in the animation art form they have defined for generations.
Arrrggghhh. Sorry. Rant over
They're actually working on merging 2D and 3D animation with their new animation system Meander. Just watch their short film Paperman, it looks unlike anything ever made, just incredible. Gigantic was supposed to be animated like that, but the film is not in development anymore. But I agree with you, they spend so much money on movies like Alice and The Nutcracker instead of making something new and pushing the boundaries of cinematography. I think the heads should roll because of this week's live action Disney flop, that part of the studio is obviously out of control, bad-quality movies are being printed, and quite many of them flop, which is honestly a good thing. I guess I can't blame them for The Nutcracker, it was put in development long before Alice 2 bombed, I guess Disney thought it would have the same potential at the box office as the first Alice, and when they saw what a stinker they have in their hands, they just let it die a slow and painful death, hence why the marketing for this was abysmal. It's kinda sad, I think, The Nutcracker is really a popular property, if they gave WDAS the task of developing an animated film based on it, I'm sure we would've gotten an instant holiday classic that would've made all the money in the world and the studio would have gotten another Oscar, as well, but instead we got this turd, and I'm happy that it's bombing, quality is always above short trends.

It is a bad movie.
*inserts "it's what she deserves" gif*
But why is it a bad movie? I keep hearing that, yet I don't find it bad, not even mediocre, and I have some quite high standards when it comes to the quality of what I watch.

Can someone explain to me why everyone seems to hate Finding Dory? I thought it was at least on par (for me better) than the first one, so I can't understand the low scores it has here, on IMDb etc.

Moana > Zootopia is an unpopular opinion?
Whewww the taste here...
Well, Zootopia is the one that took all the awards and was much more talked about in the media, and to top that, it made a billion dollars, which is quite difficult for an animated movie. Also, the unpopular part of my post was the one in which I compare Moana to TLK and BaTB.

Zootopia had its moments, but I just didn't feel engaged that much with the movie. Moana, on the other hand, was really emotional, beautifully animated and had a quite unexpected twist.

Highly unpopular opinion: Moana was much better than Zootopia and is one of the top 3 WDAS films, together with The Lion King and Beauty and the Beast.

Hems better hope this is a success. If not, i don't see studios giving him other tentpoles. And with Thor over, i can't see him nabbing character roles in indie films. He's made for big budget movies, but so far they haven't panned out
He was excellent in Bad Times at the El Royale, too bad that one flopped, it was really a great movie.

Finally saw Bad Times at the El Royale. Can't believe the movie is bombing, I think it's currently on my Top 10 list of 2018 movies. It was a fun, intriguing and mysterious ride.
