AniNate Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 " Pete's Dragon continues Disney's current live-action winning streak with an update that gives the original a visual overhaul without overwhelming its sweet, soulful charm.

Mojoguy Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Disney really should have switched Alice 2 with Pete on the schedule, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I imagine Disney saw Pete's Dragon as a riskier project since it's not as popular as the other Disney classics hence the lower budget and August release date 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I hope the failure of Alice 2 taught Disney a lesson about making unnecessary sequels and overspending on their blockbusters... oh who am I kidding here? They'll give the next Pirates a 300m budget, and when that movie disappoints, Depp's career will finally be finished with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they mean Disney live action specifically excluding Lucasfilm and Marvel. Then...well, less so. Lest we forget Finest Hours too.

The Futurist Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 So this is not a Suicide Squad case with deceiving trailers and the Dragon doesn't make a cameo it seems. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
