excel1 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) The actress who plays the Mermaid is legit. super model beautiful. Not "good looking getting Hollywood dolled up" but model-type features with skin and one structure. It's almost distracting in a way that women used to describe Brad Pitt or Henry Cavill. Waiting for the "wooden acting" comments because people are too busy oogling her and don't take her seriously (as a fucking mermaid...).

DAJK Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Decent trailer, but I'm really not feeling this movie box office-wise anymore. Was on board the 400M train a few months ago, but I'm lowering my prediction to Cinderella (2015) numbers. Who knows, maybe it can pull off a miracle... we all remember what we thought Aladdin was going to gross a few months before it came out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Quinn Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 This looks hideous lighting-wise...still gonna make crazy money. I'm friends with some Disney Adults and follow a lot of Black Twitter members, and they are stanning this big time. We'll all whine and complain, but hopefully Halle gets better movies from this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Are there any other live action feature remakes in the pipeline, or is this the last of these monstrosities? Are they going to get so desperate they’ll do Hercules next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And some of their more recent films are for sure getting a greenlight. Florence Pugh and Taron Egerton are resisting, but they will be cast for a live-action Tangled that's probably dropping in about 2028 or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adaros Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Never would though that Little Mermaid movie will look visually darker than DC Aquaman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyxx Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Halle Bailey is a goddess. That is all i have to add to this thread. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustLurking Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 CGI being so dark underwater is a bummer though. It's a fairy tale. Be colorful! Looks fine to me, anyway, but Sebastian is uncanny valley material for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I didn't even realize that Sebastian was there. I know most people complained about how dark WF was but it didn't bother me, so I can only hope this doesn't either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking this will perform exactly as I expected - which was a lot under what most thought... I consider the same scenario we have coming this month with DnD/Mermaid to the following week's Mario/Spiderverse. Not an absolute disaster, but gonna get overshadowed alot, even if it ends up good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 2023 summer is extremely packed. Big pile up of movies after covid delays. Safe to say TLM won't be pulling a TGM in terms of legs. This movie is going to really sensitive to reviews, unlike the last Dis remakes. I feel lots of people are waiting for those good reviews before buying tickets.

MovieMan89 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Maybe A2 just ruined underwater VFX, but why do they look not good here? That’s concerning. And YUCK at them going the soulless TLK remake route with hyper realism for the animal character designs. Much less optimistic on the box office now from that trailer. Bailey is definitely seeming like the most/only inspired thing about this so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 I saw someone on Twitter say Gaga should have been Ursula, and that could have been low key brilliant. Melissa looks like she’s 100% just there to collect a paycheck in that trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hunchback of Notre Dame remake was also in the works if I remember well so yeah counting Mufasa and Aladdin 2 there's remakes untill...2026? Before they jump on Princess and the Frog/Tangled which will be 17-18 years old. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
