ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS | 5/27/16 | If anyone cares, there is an RT watch in this thread apparently.

It's that shameless unoriginality that studios engage in now and then which I think is killing the movie industry.

They've been doing that for decades. This is actually how the industry works.

Perhaps, but it's certainly been ramped up in recent years.

Looking at the schedule, boy, 2016 looks like a real come down after how epic 2015 is gonna be.

Avatar 2 Avatar 2 Avatar 2 Finding Dory. Yeah 2015 looks hard to beat.

We can't be 100% on Avatar 2. It is Jim Cameron after all.

There's only one Avatar 2 and it's in December. What about the 12 months preceding?

Highlighting that Avatar 2 can make up for a so-called lackluster 2016. A few 1B+ movies? Fast 7, POTCV, Dory, Marvel and ID4-2. Won't have a better look til mid-2014 of schedule.

Don't forget that Transformers 5 will most likely come out in 2016.

So this is indeed happening?! I actually hoped and thought this will just fade as a project, and now here we are with a release date. Sigh.

Only 495m OS?

 

Alice 2 could make more than 400m in Asia!

RIP Johnny Depp's artist integrity.

 

At this point, it's just a badly decomposed skeleton filled with maggots.

At the very least, we have a chance not to get a 'LOT battle to overthrow the queen' angle thrown in, which doesn't work with the Wonderland story at all. And quite frankly, I trust James Bobin at this point to give us something weird and fun. As someone who hated the first one, I may give this the chance to be something different.

 next: huntsman spin-off

I was looking to see the time stamp on this post...I thought, why am I reading posts from 4 years ago?

 

Just bringing it up again.

Here’s something they didn’t announce, but we know to be true: Wasikowska’s Alice and Depp’s Hatter may not be the only versions of those characters to show up in the movie. Word is Disney and new director James Bobin are looking to cast younger versions of both characters. 

While the Tim Burton-directed first film was a sequel of sorts to the original Lewis Caroll novel, with a grown up Alice popping down the rabbit hole all the while getting the distinct feeling of deja vu, the new film will indeed take us back to the beginning when we learn that Alice has in fact visited Wonderland before as a younger child. 

It’s not clear at this point if the older and younger versions of the characters will cross paths, or how exactly their stories will be intertwined, because Wasikowska and Depp will still have plenty of screentime beyond just showing up to set up a flashback. Curiouser and curiouser!

Arthur on KJ compared this to Prince Caspian, and I think that pretty much sums it up. I suspect the decline of 3D will make this look even worse. 60 4-day, 130 finish.

awful idea

[ddddeeee]

I actually think going back to the original story for a chunk could work quite well for audiences.
