Disney has 11 movies set for 2016.
Are they overdoing it?
If they make money, why not?
>>78336604
Usually movies take a few years to make, so, no. I mean at this point some of those are already finished, and you can't just release movies all at once, you gotta give each one some time in the spotlight.
If it was like 11 Marvel movies or 11 Star Wars movies in a single year the answer would be yes, but the only real connection between those movies is that the brands are owned by Disney. So no.
>>78336658
But is 11 movies in 12 months giving them their spotlight? I mean looking at that timeline it looks like BFG could get destroyed by Finding Dory by accident.
None of those movies have a cute shota in them, so if say they're underdoing it. Give me a cute little boy, Disney!
Disney is now an entertainment juggernaut. They have
>Pixar
>Lucas' stuff
>Marvel
>Muppets
Even if some flop, others will make up for it
>>78336691
empire of joy
>>78336604
>Ghost in the Shell
I forgot about that.
>>78336686
There's a decent enough gap between them. The only thing that really might be a bad idea is GotG2 so close to Star Wars.
>>78336706
It's going to be a steaming pile of shit but happily it will also probably be a massive flop.
Whoops I haven't seen a single one of the 2015s
>>78336691
>Disney is now an entertainment juggernaut
>nowtechnically you're not wrong, but still
>>78336726
You haven't seen Star Wars?
>>78336604
You some kind of autist that watches every movie Disney releases?
>>78336604
No, they're a major studio. They're expected to put out 1 a month.
Time was major studios were expected to put out a couple a week, but that was before the age of the blockbuster.
>>78336604
Captain America and Alice in Wonderland are coming out at the same time? Who the fuck signed off on that?
>>78336755
different flavors
fantasy and cape
>>78336755
It's a month apart in the US. X-Men: Apocalypse is releasing head-to-head with Alice though. So that movie's going to be pretty fucked.
>>78336833
Did anyone even like the first one?
>>78336604
As the worlds population grows companies are going to get bigger and bigger which means they'll be releasing more and more products each year for the larger population to buy.
>>78336896
It made over a billion dollars so I guess someone did

What's the problem exactly?
>>78336896
To the tune of over $1-billion, yes. Any blockbuster going to go head to head with the sequel is suicide.
>>78336933
Surprising absolutely no one.
Not even a gasp in the theater when I went opening night.
>Pete's Dragon
>The Jungle Book
>BFG
>Toy Story 4
>Another Pirates movie
>Beauty and the Beast remake

What the fuck is going on in this gif?
>>78336688
The Jungle Book. Boy's even barefoot.
>>78337015
I guess a fighting scene from a different anglee. The camera is usually behind of one of the actors and special effects make it seems they actually clash swords. Since actors rarely know how to use swords and even then the possibility of an injury is too big risk (this ruining the movie shedule or worse).
Now all they need is star trek and the circle will be complete.
>>78336604
> Ghost in the Shell
> Disney
It's going to be PG13 isn't it
I like how they're holding off on Indiana Jones stuff. Let star wars dominate for the next 5 years, and once that well dries up get that reboot going.
>>78336727
>Disney is now an entertainment juggernaut
Why is it allowed that like 5 companies can own all entertainment worldwide?
>>78337092
Who's gonna play indy?
>>78337107
Probably the guy from Jurassic World
>>78337107
John boyega.
>>78337056
I watched Episode III for the first time a few days ago and that quick flurry actually happens on screen like that.
>>78336604
Ghost in the Shell is actually going to be a thing? I thought it was a fairy tale, like Alita.
Oh well, it isn't like the franchise has been worth a damn since SAC2.
>>78336933
I teared up during that part, like I was 10 years old and watching Star Wars VHS tape that I had recorded off of TV over and over again.
At least 2 of these movies are gonna bomb. So which 2 are gonna be the failures?
>>78337205
Pirates and BFG.
>>78337205
Bfg and Petes dragon. I can't imagine anyone giving a fuck about those.
>>78336604
>Two of them are DreamWorks
What is going on here?
>>78337277
BFG is Spielberg though. "Fun" family-friendly Spielberg.

As long as they keep up their end with good product, I am content.
>>78337504
I bet most people know GitS from the TV anime.
>>78337015

>>78336604
most of it is shitty sequels done at half budget, not a big feat
>Live action versions of their biggest animated films
Feels a bit weird. Like, I get love action adaptions of old cartoons like Scooby Doo and Inspector Gadget, but to literally remake your own films exactly the same just with real people is just screaming cash grab.
>>78337092
>>78337120
>>78337131
Spielberg has said he's not gonna touch Indiana Jones again.
I think it won't get another sequel or remake while either he or Ford are alive.
>>78337096
>Why is it allowed that like 5 companies can own all entertainment worldwide?
Everything in any industry is owned by (give or take) half a dozen companies worldwide.
>>78337583
Little kids were flipping out over the Jungle Book trailer at the Star Wars show I was at. They eat that shit up and the parents will take them.
Disney's live action Cinderella made gangbusters too.
>>78337096
>Why is it allowed that like 5 companies can own all entertainment worldwide?
Any less is a monopoly, any more is too susceptible to a merger.
>>78337627
Jungle Book did look really cool.
>>78336604
>Ghost in the Shell
dear god, no. I thought they abandoned this project.
>>78337302
Loopholes are happening. It's just Disney trying to become the monopoly they always wanted to be, but without actually being a monopoly.

I got hyped when a bit of bear necesseties was whistled at the end of the trailer

I don't care if they change the names to justify casting white people. It'll still be better than anything the Japanese film industry could shit out on a $100k budget
>>78336604

>>78337924
>It'll still be better than anything the Japanese film industry could shit out on a $100k budget
but it wont be better than the original film or Stand Alone Complex. It probably wont even have music by Yoko Kanno, let alone an Asian Motoko.
>>78337302
DreamWorks and DreamWorks Animation have been separate companies for a decade now. DreamWorks is basically Spielberg's production company nowadays.

a reminder than the great late Christopher Lee has done the most sword fights on screen of any actor. He wanted to do Duku well, but he got screwed by being in the movie so short...
>>78337525
the TV anime was more intelligent than anything Disney has done...ever
>>78338281
Even pulp fiction?Disney made that.
>>78337924
Then use Chinese actresses like they did with Memoirs of a Geisha, Japanese may complain again but fuck em.
>>78337980
>Why the fuck can't Japanese women ACT? Why are they so dead eyed and stilted in front of the camera?
The Japanese industry isn't interested in women who can act, They want women who can pose as fap bait.
tomorrowland was released?
thats something ive literally heard nothing about aside from the one trailer in the theatres
>>78338266
>He wanted to do Duku well, but he got screwed by being in the movie so short...
He got screwed by old age and the demands of the choreography.
So they put his head on another guy's body.
>>78338311
>pulp fiction
>intelligent
>>78338343
It was really poor. The whole premise of the film is an empty mess.
They spend the whole movie trying to get to Tomorrowland to reveal its an abandoned ghost town ruled by Hugh Laurie and three storm troopers.
>>78338366
Brad bird turned down star wars for that shit.
Yfw he didn't live to see DreamWorks: ghost in a shell
>>78338518
I'm sure he would have been as horrified as so many other fans are.
>>78338204
Any chances for Kamala in MCU?

Maybe a cameo in the Inhumans movie, if that ever gets made.

While I don't actually mind the character too much any more I still detest bullshit quota fillers, especially legacy stealers or recasters.

>>78338878

>>78339306

>>78339320
Yeah, but that's what makes him so likeable: he can't fly a ship, he can't use a sword, he learned how to shoot a gun from playing too much Republic Commando,he gets friendzoned.He's even more of an everyman than Luke was.

Japanese people get boners over Scarjo just as much as whitey does.
They'll love her.
>>78337924
>Scarlett Johannson as Mokoto
that right there is the reason why it's gonna suck.
For one, Johannson is absolutely shit in main roles, and the only reason she even got the role in the first place is because Muh Black Widow (which she was shit in as well).
There's at least threee actresses whos names escape me that have a build and look similar to Mokoto, while Johannson looks nothing like the character.
>>78337977
The Major is full-cyborg, so there is no real need for her to be Japanese. However, I will be very disappointed if she doesn't were the swimsuit-with-jacket costume.
>>78337924
>Actors that aren't wooden and sound like they're reading their dialogue off of cue cards (ie; all Japanese actors)
Because casting is so great when it comes to these kind of adaptation. We're probably getting Scarlett Johansson as Kusanagi just cause played Black Window and she is the go-to when it comes to "independent woman" shit rather than someone who actually FITS the character.
>>78336604
>Ghost in the Shell.
>Ron Perlman will never be Batou
It's the perfect fucking casting right there!!
>>78340740
>We're probably getting Scarlett Johansson as Kusanagi just cause played Black Window and she is the go-to when it comes to "independent woman" shit rather than someone who actually FITS the character.
It's either Scarjo or J-Law, these days.

I give a huge fuck about Pete's Dragon. If they don't do I Saw a Dragon and Bill of Sale then I will bitch and moan about it.
Though I did mostly watched that movie because of Helen Redy.
>>78337525
You have a problem with Stand Alone Complex? It covers all the themes and controversies of the first two movies and expands on them much finer detail. I don't know why any snob would promote the original movies or the manga over two seasons of SAC.
>>78339320
I like his look. He's one of the few newer young actors who cab #1 act and #2 doesn't look like effeminate Nancy boy. He's look like just some guy.
>>78341601
I thought SAC didn't have nude stealth. It has probably been almost a decade since I watched it, though.
>>78341656
it had stealth but not nudity. Is that what it takes to make a good anime for you?
>>78341732
Yes, that is exactly it. You cornered me in a web of logic.

It's not pointless flailing, it's an In-Universe demonstration of how Anakin and Obi-Wan know basically all of each others moves. The intention is to confuse your opponent with a light show and then go in for the kill which they were both doing.
It's also the most cherrypicked star wars gif of all time. I mean you have to be fucking crazy if you think it was a blunder of the camera.

They're holding off on Indy for a good reason. after the use up Star Wars and Marvel, Indy will be fresh and ready to go.

Seriously? Disney has Ghost in the Shell? That makes me mad for some reason. Teh only other movie I'll pay for and see in theatres is Rogue One and Episode 8. Probably Steel Civil War and Dr. strange online. Fucking GOTG and the various baby movies though.

Absolutely fucking not. It's Disney, which means all the plebs will only be talking about their movie when it comes out. What else is coming 2016? The shitty Ghostbusters reboot. All these Disney movies will just suffocate the shitty reboot, meaning it will get no income and we'll never get that series continued. God bless you Disney.

>>78337610
Are we at least going to find out how Indy loses his eye?
I thought dreamworks and disney were rival competitors?
>>78348752
They're also adapting Naruto, Death Note, and Akira.
But don't worry about Akira because they put the script on halt. I heard Nolan was originally attached to produce and they were making a trilogy. And the anime left out a ton of the story from the manga.
>>78349704
Didn't they want Keanu and James Franco for Kaneda? I think we dodged a bullet there.
How is this even a thing worth bringing up
Warner has 11
Universal has 14
Lionsgate has 17
Sony has 20
Fox has 17
As it turns out major studios have multiple ongoing projects with entirely different staff and organizational committees. I sincerely doubt the guys working with Zootopia are the same ones for Rogue One

>>78336604
Well tomorrowland and the Good dinosuar both flopped and I don't even remember Bridg of Spies. Theres a few flops in there next year for sure.
>>78336604
They're underdoing it. They should aim for one a month. Even if the movies don't make a shit-ton of money they're making at least their budgets back.
>>78336604
>pete's dragon remake
there is no reaction image that fits this level of insane anger
>>78348916
Probably because the story of the most recent Indy film revolved around Harrison Ford reconciling with an estranged lover because they had a kid together. Just like in TFA.
>>78343392
It's not a blunder of the camera, it's a blunder of the director. It's fucking stupid. How ADD are Jedi that they get distracted by their enemy's weapon only to be hit by their enemy's weapon that was doing the distracting.

The absolute madman
>>78336604
No, but in 2017 they might be. 3 SCi-fi epics in a 5 month span? What the fuck?

The different is, Disney has a far greater brand to it than those other studios. As great as Straight Outta Compton, Jurassic World and Furious 7 were, you don't really think about the fact that they were all Universal films. But everyone knows what is and what isn't a Disney film.

Ah, yes, the wild child shota who should go completely naked. Also, ew, that's a real kid, man.
>Civil War
Does anyone else think there should have been a movie between this and 2? The team doesn't seem established enough to go pulling it apart after just two movies. Let them fight Kang or something first, you know?
Also, that star wars movie is a spinoff and not #8, right?

Look, as long as it's not ripping off the most well known Star Wars movie of all time I'm fine with it.Also, I doubt the entire cast is going to die

You know what would be even better than that?
No live action adaptation at all.

I just wish they weren't doing Toy Story 4. That series already had its ending.
