Aladdin live action movie | 24 MAY 2019 | Disney | 7th most profitable movie of 2019. Disney does it again!

I guess TLK is getting a 90% percent score on RT. Should we prepare ourselves for the live action Frozen within the next five to eight years?

250M+ domestic.

Forgettable.

It doesn't fit the movie. Why cast non-white lead and then have her sing a generic white pop song?

 

 

Dude, it doesn't matter if it fits the original Aladdin

 

It fits THIS Aladdin.

95 probably. Frozen would be awesome. Definitely prepare yourself.

Disney is terrible at getting good child actors. A Wrinkle in Time would have been bearable if the kids weren't so bad.

Kurt Russel & Ryan Gosling say hi.

 

Those choices were up to the directors not Disney as a whole.   The child actors in Pete's Dragon were wonderful.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Aladdin having charismatic actors is one of the biggest things that's led to its praise. Lion King doesn't exactly have that luxury.

TLK will start near 100 and trickle down to low/mid 90s. Aladdin probably settles around 75.

Having an opinion that a movie looks like bad and you don’t expect it to be good doesn’t make one a hater. And considering a lot of the reviews have phrases like “Better than the trailers made it look,” or “Better than I expected,” points to a lot of people not expecting much out of this film. 

 

Also we have 13 reviews and the average rating is a 6.5. A solid start but there’s still 100s of reviews left to be added..... 

Indeed but the thread has been bombarded with expectations or dreams more like of 20% score of 4.5.

You say that like it's a bad thing

I haven’t cared for these live action remakes as a whole, and I’m not particularly looking forward to Let it Go once again being in the public spotlight, so there’s that.

the reviews from the american critics are fantastic.

A Guy Ritchie directed Aladdin movie getting really good reviews. 

 

I never ever thought I’d type that out. But here we are.

An ending score between 75-80% probably makes $200 million MUCH more likely. If it stays around 85% (give or take 2%) then making $250 million seems more likely.

 

Doesn't seem like a correlation that may make sense to some, but RT scores DO mean a lot these days.(especially when you consider that BatB made $504 million with a 71% score).

250M is the floor. This will have insane legs. great movie+no competition

250M is the ceiling. This will have ok legs. great movie+a lot of competition

This seems more realistic imo.

The highest Beauty and the Beast ever had at ANY POINT was a 79%, and that was 2 weeks before release. Seeing this at 87% right now 2 days before release is shocking... to say the least.

 

Edit: I just refreshed it and its down to a 77% (6.61 average)... still though...

Guy Ritchie > Bill Condon.

 these are not realistic expectations. it's worst case scenario. not gonna happen. what competition does it have?

[TalismanRing]

I've missed charismatic Will Smith in movies

Its down to 75 already? Dang I guess it will end up in the 60s when all reviews come in.  this is probably the detective Pikachu all over again
