Re: Disney's The Little Mermaid (Live-Action)

Aladdin is first. I refuse to name the third movie because I dislike it that much.

I don't recall saying anything about the main title and now that I think of it, I can't even remember the main title being revealed haha.

I had to get a bigger (plastic) tree a couple of years back because my tree got too animated,

Re: Disney's The Little Mermaid (Live-Action)

I walked out of my viewing wondering how a director who was been nominated for a variety of directing awards linked to musicals (especially film musicals) completely stuffed up filming the musical numbers in this film. Most are void of energy and fun. Halle's tone and facial expressions in Part of Y...

Re: Disney's The Little Mermaid (Live-Action)

Not as iconic!? That’s rubbish! Whole point of this reprise was to state Ursula's intentions now that she’s met Eric and wants him or herself (or at least to humiliate him). Just "ahh ahh ahh ahhh"-ing Ariel's bit and then "la la la lah"-ing the lyric part doesn’t give us anything and may as well n...

Re: Barbie live action film

"Barbie World" music video: (mild language) Hate it. Aside from hearing Aqua in the background, I think it's trash. At least Aqua would be getting some money from that 'piece of music'. So, someone somewhere had the idea that a song could be made by playing the chorus of a known song in the backgro...

Re: New Disney Streaming Service: Disney+

I tend to play TV catchup when I'm on my term breaks as I have more free time. This idea that I need to be watching a show the moment it drops is ludicrous and just as ludicrous as removing original content created for the streamer off their service. I guess the early days of streaming where the ser...

Re: Marvel Cinematic Universe

How did I miss that Secret Invasion's first episode had dropped? I honestly thought it began last week. And I call myself a fan of the MCU.

That new trailer has me going from 'Yeah I'll watch it sometime during my break', to 'I know what I will be watching the first day of my break'

Re: DC Universe

I was talking about the end of the movie - nothing credits related. My main issue is I am not a fan of George Clooney at all, so getting this uncredited cameo is not the attraction the studio was hoping it would be to get me into the cinema, it does the opposite. Plus getting the actor from the 'wor...

Re: DC Universe

After reading the plot on Wikipedia and reading how the movie ends, my desire to see the film went out the window. I understand (kinda) why they chose that path because the other option isn't really available. But out of every possible scenario they could have gone with they chose THAT one???

Re: Disney Pixar's Elio

My first thought was it looks like a reverse Lilo & Stitch. And that's not a bad thing. I'm keen to see more and I enjoyed that it teased us the story without revealing the story. My only concern is that it's a space story, and while there are exceptions eg WALL-E, so many animated space stories are...

Re: Disney's The Little Mermaid (Live-Action)

I've been seeing a lot of behind-the-scenes footage for this movie and all I can think about is what's the point of making a live action adaptation when it relies so much on animation to exist, Kinda defeats the porpoise doesn't it when an animated version already exists.

Re: Disney's The Little Mermaid (Live-Action)

Reading those quotes James posted, I've learnt that I cannot simply read the 3 words 'hot, crustacean band'.I have to sing them.

We've got a Long Weekend coming up here in Australia, assuming it's still playing by then - surely it will in 3 weeks. I might make the journey to the cinema to see it.
