lorddemaxus Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Billion seriously depends on the quality of the songs. No LMM is a big hit against a billion happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I guess would work okay. Both Tiana and her movie are more popular than ever, and you can sell it as "2D animation is back!" Maybe if the budget is low enough they'll consider putting it in theaters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wicked is a different story though. Edited February 7 by Speedorito Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be there for both (I love a bad live action musical), but there will be a clash if it doesnt move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cmasterclay Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 (edited) September to December suddenly starting to get actually loaded. Maybe release some movies in February or April or August next time guys? Wicked is such a perfect holiday movie and it's ready to drop but obviously it feels like it should move now. Gladiator is fine.

Both Tiana and her movie are more popular than ever, and you can sell it as "2D animation is back!" the last 2D film Disney did was Winnie the Pooh in 2011. They need to hire or even train a lot of people for this because even for 100th anniversary short some animation was good, some was not. It's clearly a lost art at this point(if you want expensive hand-drawn animation that Disney was known for). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysteryMovieMogul Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 I'm not convinced the film will be good, but the lack of LMM means nothing to it's final quality. In the Heights wasn't a hit, LMM isn't really as beloved as he was a few years back, and, going back to the first film, I found his music to be a bit of a weak link. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianL Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The reworking the show into the movie makes me think this isn't gonna be great... sounds like a move of desperation unless this pivot was done early in production. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 (edited) This sounds like the 2020s version of a glorified DTV sequel based on the pedigree. I'm not convinced it'll be received much better than Wish, though I guess it probably won't be a flop on the strength of its IP goodwill and presumably smaller budget.

Reddroast Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Idk If this can work for disney. No LLM. The Rock is damaged goods right now. Wrestling fans hate him rn @Cap( plus add the fact that DWAYNE will likely get caught up in the WWE scandal in the coming weeks.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait what? No mention of Auli'i in the article either. I mean surely they'd try to get both of them back though, considering the original film was one of the few WDAS films that was selling the lead actors' names on the poster AND in the trailers. Assuming that falls into place, we'll finally have a new record holder for biggest Thanksgiving opener after Frozen held the crown for 11 years.

Krissykins Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Smart move making Moana theatrical since the first has been a streaming darling on Nielsen for years now. But just turning the show into a film makes me nervous. And it’s silly to release at the same time as Wicked. Wicked should move as there will be a major audience overlap.

AJG Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The time where having a major animation studio spend make TV seeming like a sensible idea is well and truly dead. I truly can't imagine the quality of this one. The animation will no doubt be top notch but a TV show being edited into a movie sounds like ass.
