Sadly, sometimes I think finding a real dragon is more likely than ever seeing a traditionally animated movie in the mainstream again.

AniNate Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I don't know why Disney decided this movie was in need of a big budget remake, but at least they won't be accused of raping anyone's childhood here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was one last year, it's called Spongebob and it made $160M, I would say that is pretty mainstream Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I wonder how it'll differ from the original aside from not being a musical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it was advertised as majority CG. Also, it's Spongebob. It's not like a studio made a risky venture with it.

Well, if Spongebob counts then there is another one coming next year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkccoo Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 (edited) Every year Disney has some big bombs, this is one of candidates, my opinion though. One reason is this movie and jungle book are the same type kind of movies ( the teasers are similar too). Disney is dumb to put these two movies in the same year.

Exxdee Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I thought that this was going to bomb since it is remaking a bland children story, but they are making it Jungle book/super 8/HTTYD style. Should have known, since it was Disney. I like Lowery as a director and the cast is decent. I can see 100m domestic for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAtGender Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 It's intriguing, but the teaser itself feels a little twee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The original Pete's Dragon is extremely cheesy. Modernizing it without the songs seems like the right approach in theory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a modern-day live-action Disney remake/reboot. It's literally the only card they got right now. The only exception will be next year's Beauty and the Beast which I hear is really more like a film adaptation of the Broadway show. And hell, you already KNOW that the teaser will also be "epic". Just shrugged at this one. I feel hard pressed to actually care (don't care for the original either) but it amuses me on how similar this feels to Jungle Book at the moment.

Dan9 Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 I thought it was a great teaser. Good mixture of story set-up, a lot of varied visuals, music... I'm definitely looking forward to seeing how this turns out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
