I’m a massive Lion King fan, but they better stop that Mufasa mess. Leave it as it is, no need for unnecessary stories

yeah. To be honest, whilst I’m intrigued with Jenkins making it, that it’ll be the same soulless unemotive realness of the last one - just immediately turns me off. If they’d made this as a full on hand drawn animated prequel with the same budget and time given to the 94 one - I’d be all in. 
 

Anthropomorphism is the key to most of Disney’s success with animation. They went way too far the other way with Lion King 2019, and ripped out the one thing that makes these things work.

I really need Feige to be merciful and reveal that Fantastic Four cast today. Can't take anymore of the crappiest fan castings and fake leaks.

Yeah those are annoying af. Reddit has contradicting (f)leaks every hour. I think it's a given that they are announcing director and cast today.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I'm not expecting the Fantastic Four cast to be revealed today. The movie's still over two years away, and none of the main four are set to appear in other projects beforehand. I'm expecting them to save the reveal for next year's Comic-Con.

[Valonqar]

They announce a lot of cast years before their movie comes out. Mahershalla Ali as Blade. They didn't have anything for that movie just him.

Man, sure can't wait to read the replies in this thread to the announcement of a second season of Boba Fett.
