    Zegler has been the best part of every movie she's been in so far, and is a star in the making. What don't you "get"? She's an American from New Jersey...

     

    Also the Queen being Gal Gadot makes sense because she's supposed to be the most beautiful woman in the world, right? Like that's the whole point of the movie/story. Hasn't Gal been looked at in that way for 6+ years now?

     

    Honestly just some of the dumbest discourse online is about "race swapping" or "gender swapping" characters. People need to get a life.

     

    No. Snow White is supposed to be most beautiful character in the story, because the Queen was jealous of her beauty. That's why she sent a huntsman to kill her and deliver her heart. And when the Huntsman failed she turned into an old lady to kill her with a poisoned apple. She's jealous and want wants to kill her for being prettier than the Queen. That's the whole point.

    People seem to love The Little Mermaid. A lot of the chuds problem circles around that Snow White isn’t "white" enough. Come on, give me a fucking break, this is fairytale stories for kids, you don’t get less harmless than that, people crying for disrespect of the original Disney cartoons are full of shit. Sad, old chuds with nothing better to do other than be complete creeps in the internet. 

     

    Its called Snow White, because she was described as white as the snow with black hair and crimson lips. "The fairest of them all". Its literally in the title. Making the evil queen prettier than Snow White already messes with the story because the Queen sent a Huntsman to kill Snow White out of jealousy of her beauty.

     

    And Kids deserve high quality entertainment, not mediocre stuff.

    Which brings to terrible movies. Creativity and fresh ideas can only make art better. 

     

    First live actions Alice and Maleficent were already different takes- point of view of the animated movies (as Cinderella kinda Is too) so i don't know why at some point people started to ask for copy carbon movies. 

    Im not saying you should do carbon copies of the originals. I'm saying that you have to respect the iconography and the characters of the very movie you're adapting from while expanding the story in ways that thematically makes sense and enriches the world they live in. Cinderella and The Jungle Book are the only remakes that did this successfully.

     

    All of the other remakes just padded runtime to fill unnecessary crap just to get to the 2 hour mark. Changing the iconography and how the characters look on top of the movies themselves being mediocre just adds fuel to the fire.

  4. I just saw DR Part 1... love the car chase in Venice, the Abu Dabi airport and especially the whole train sequence at the end. The writing could have been better though and probably needed to shave 15 to 20 minutes for a much tighter pacing. Overall I really liked it.

     

    But oh my lord... I think I'm legit in love with Haley Atwell. :wub: She stole the whole movie.

    Lone Ranger, yes. But John Carter does need that sort of budget. The issue is you shouldn't be making a John Carter movie at all though. And definitely don't call it fucking John Carter, like it's a 5 million biopic of a guy that invented tupperware or something. 

    It was gonna be called John Carter Of Mars, but I blame the marketing department for that.

    TLJ Domestic: $620 million

    Rise of Skywalker Domestic: $515 million

     

    That's not 1/2. 

     

    The Force Awakens: $2,064,615,817  

    The Last Jedi: $1,331,635,141     

    The Rise Of Skywalker:  $1,072,767,997   

     

    The Sequel Trilogy went from 2 Billion to 1 Billion. That's half of your audience lost.

  7. I hope How Do You Live gets an early 2024 release date in the west so that Suzume still gets a shot at being nominated for the Best Animated Feature category this year.

     

    I know Spiderverse is probably gonna be the winner but a recognition for Makoto Shinkai would be very nice after they snubbed Your Name and Whethering With You.

    Rights are supposed to go either Sony/Disney

     

    Then we again have "THE FIRST SLAM DUNK" released by GKIDS so kinda not aware at this point 

    I really hope Sony/Crunchyroll get this movie for global distribution outside Asia. They usually do a good job at making anime films more widely available than other distributors, especially in Latin America.

  9. A lot of people still think MI7 is coming out on Friday instead of Wednesday. The change in release date was very recent and caused a bit of confusion. I remember something similar happened with the first Puss In Boots because DreamWorks changed the release date from November 3rd to Ocotber 27th at the last minute and that affected it's OW.

     

    The real test for MI7 will be the weekend.

    Yea it is too much for the same people who are spending 5 hours straight binge watching crap at home? Gimme a break. It's a perfect double bill. An epic, serious, thriller that gets you gripped washed down with an amazing, uplifting Barbie. Two great films.

    Perfect double bill.

    I do double bills every saturday night in my house, so Barbenheimer will be a walk in the park for me. :)
