RichWS Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Can't wait till Tarzan tanks next summer. Someone should tell studio execs just because we know who the characters are doesn't mean anybody wants a new movie about them. Yes, that someone should be me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1stpierre Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 The marketing looks a bit weird for me. I mean I don't know if it's the color pallet or what, but something looks off. Some of the visuals look decent though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, in Tarzans favor...it's a fun old school Saturday afternoon matinee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad it sounds like that's probably all it has to offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, some visuals are really gorgeous but the tone will probably be way too weird for GA. And Ham Jackman doesn't do the movie any favors either.

The Futurist Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Or Rooney Mara as Tiger Lily for that matter. Lol, her team probably asked Warner to NOT send Pan screeners to a certain Academy this Holiday season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudalb Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 If the early box office any indication, they will have to change of the sequel "Neverafter" to "Neverhappen". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudalb Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Will a 300 Million break even point,not including marketing and publicity,I think that breaking even is the absolute best case scenario for this film, and IMHO that is very unlikely. Warners will lose money on this one, question is how much. It will be interesting, in terms of it's lack luster opening overseas, if Warners cuts their lossed and begins to cut back on the huge advertising budget they were planning for this film. And I think they have pretty much written off a sequel. They will just be overjoyed not to take a bath on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 We are definitely getting this next weekend at our theatre. The only question is what will be the other movie: walk or sicario. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TServo2049 Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) Peter Pan isn't public domain, at least not everywhere. It's under copyright in the UK; in the U.S., the book is public domain (but not the play?) but most adaptations still get permission from Great Ormond Street Hospital and give them royalties. It's in a confusing limbo where it's public domain but not public domain. I have no idea if WB got official permission or not. The irony is that if this film tanks and people forget about it quickly, Disney can do their own live-action film and nobody will confuse it for this movie. Disney is the only studio who would ever have any success making a live-action Peter Pan movie. Edited October 3, 2015 by TServo2049 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) I assume WB was able to get permission from GOSH otherwise the film wouldn't be made. Tarzan isn't public domain either as the Edgar Burroughs Rice Estate owns the trademark. Edited October 3, 2015 by Jonwo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatree Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Um, pretty sure Peter Pan is not copyrighted (at least here) as it's been over a century since it was published. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
