    I love all of Guy Ritchie's early films, and the Sherlock Holmes ones were kinda fun, but I think it is so incredibly fucked up that the guy makes a $175 million dollar King Arthur movie that makes $39 million dollars at the domestic box office and Disney is immediately like "bro, here's $250 million go make a live-action Aladdin!"

    He was already signed on for Aladdin before King Arthur came out.

    This might end Will Smith. Never should have done a remake on this movie. Robin Williams would have been pissed!

    It looks really bad but at the same time I dunno what we expected. Like, I can’t think of how else they’d do it unless it was pure CG

    I expected it to be bad, but not in this specific way.

    Probably fucked up, but I honestly hope it fails so spectacularly that it puts an end to this reboot/remake craze we're in. Disney, you have enough money. You have ALL OF THE FUCKING MONEY, you don't need to do this.

    That said, I thought the quick shot of the city with the elephants and all the colors looked cool. But this shouldn't have ever been made.

    I really liked Jungle Book and I think Dumbo looks cool. But I had no interest in Beauty and the Beast and really none in this now lol. Cautiously optimistic about Lion King I guess.

    BatB was such a weak remake... Dumbo at least looks interesting, but not holding my breath. LK... too early to tell, but at least it has a good cast.

    Jungle Book was a good film though.

    And like Mick said, outside of a weak Jafar, non-talking Iago, and hilariously CGI'd over Genie, the city shot looked cool.

    To be fair, it ain’t Will’s fault

    I actually think he’s a good choice. He’s got the charisma. It’s bad direction/special effects that is not on his side.

    Lol the hate this movie is getting so far is insane. I hope this movie, with an incredibly awesome and diverse cast, does extremely well. Who cares if Will smith looks silly as hell.
     
  16. Wait. Iago isn’t going to talk in the movie???

    I really liked Jungle Book and Beauty and the Beast, pumped for Dumbo, not sure how I feel about Lion King yet. this one I'm not super sold on, but we'll see. I don't think it shouldn't have been made, but so far haven't seen anything from it that gets me hyped either.

    Haven’t seen the new trailer but I’m still excited to check this out when it’s released

  20. I hope this is good. They do need to change how the genie looks, though. That shouldn’t be too hard, right?

    I wouldn't be surprised if they go back and do something to touch it up and make it look better after this near universal backlash. I typically don't like the idea of fans/people on the internet effecting a movie like that but I hope they do change it.

    I don't really know how different it could be. he looks exactly like you'd expect

  23. Yeah, I don't know what people expected the genie to look like... But I will say that it looks super dated. Reminds me of how they made Sinbad look in Shazaam.

    I thought it was going to be a 100% CG character with just Will Smith's voice.

    It seems to me like they're going for a more "realistic" version of the story, rather than a total shot-for-shot remake.

    Iago not talking, a more human-like genie, etc. It makes sense to me, assuming that's the purpose, but I don't like it. :-)

    But really, this looks like a bad made for TV movie with a bigger budget.
