TMP Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Feel like Aladdin will get similar reactions to this, or even similar reactions to King Arthur '17, while Lion King will probably get into the low-to-mid 70's like BATB. This looked the best of those three, and it sounds like it's a dud. hope we get some new Gambino music with TLK tho 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said I thought this movie would get good reviews as well based on the trailers...ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A supposed passion project shouldn’t be so dull and lifeless. This 100%. I still have no clue what movie critics watched to give that such great reviews, because it was one of the most lifeless animated films of the decade. And it was so easy to make something like that creative and endearing and he still seemed like he was asleep at the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatebox Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Big Fish hasn't aged well. I really liked it at the cinema then saw it years later on tv and found it unbearably syrupy. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 big fish the ending still gets me but there's a lot that doesn't work about it. billy crudup is terrible, even mcgregor is kinda lame. harrassing someone into a courtship scenes are never fun to watch, the korea stuff is kinda racist. in fact the half hour stretch before you get to the ending where he's buying the town and fixing helena bonham carter's house is super fucking boring. i like the giant and werewolf devito tho. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the Lion King will be in the 90s. One of the three remakes was going to be a clear dud and I think we know which one it is now lol.

In your defence, the $50 million opening weekend is still likely (I should know-the reviews aren't stopping me from seeing it in this weekend). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a flying elephant, the puns are as inevitable as the water-based ones for Aquaman. Dumbo flies in with 60 million and soars overseas, circling 180 million worldwide take-off. Dumbo lands in as per expectations, at 50 million. Dumbo crash lands with 35 million domestically and gets grounded overseas, for an 80 million worldwide weekend. All options covered. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Tran Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Lion King is going to be HUGE because even if it's not great it's going to look fantastic and I think there are certain properties like Lion King and probably Beauty and the Beast where they are sooo well known that people have to see for themselves. Aladdin falls in that camp with me. But yeah, these live action remakes.. I'm not sold on them at all, the animated films will always stand the test of time.

DAR Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) Haven’t seen Big Fish in awhile but remember liking it. And a lot probably don’t like it, but I really dig Sweeney Todd Edited March 27, 2019 by DAR 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Litio Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Why is Disney hiding the budget? Dumbo seems to be more expensive than The Mummy 2017. The budget report should be closer to $ 195m if Disney is not lying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
