QuoteOn Thursday, the review embargo for Disney's live-action (or photorealistic, if we're being honest) remake of the 1994 animated classic The Lion King finally lifted, and it's safe to say the critics are...busy.

Reviews for the new Lion King are mixed, with critiques ranging from celebratory to downright scathing takedowns. (The film officially opens July 19.)

As of right now, the film stands at a very meh 57% on Rotten Tomatoes, a website that aggregates film reviews. Another website, Metacritic, has it at a score of 55, describing the reviews as "mixed or average."

After Aladdin and this, Disney may wanna take a break on these live action remakes a bit.

I can't recall seeing one I actually liked and wanted to see again.

I absolutely loved Aladdin and it's Metacritic score only a 53. So I'm not worried.  Folks always wanna pan something that's a remake, especially when it's something from their childhood. Of COURSE it's not gonna have the same magic for YOU as it did when you were a kid, but a kid TODAY is gonna see that new movie and feel the same connection to it that you once had, for the original.

Aladin is a week away from crossing a billion dollars worldwide

And the lion king will easily surpass it.

Y'all just type anything around these parts.  :uhh:

It means its making money faggot. Which means disney ain't suffering any kind of loss due to critics feeling they oversaturate the market and dim the lights on other smaller releases.

Aladin also has a HIGH audience score. So clearly ppl like it.

Stfu sometimes.

Fuck you BITCH. I never said Disney was suffering. The only point I'm making is that making a lot of money at the box office doesn't mean a movie was good. Look at Endgame, Infinity War and Captain Marvel. They all made a shitload of money but they were all SHITTY movies. WELP.

I really think the negative reviews, same as Aladdin, are only because people only want to compare to the original but they're completely different movies.

Quoteit doesn't feel like a remake so much as a photorealistic snuff film.
Exactly. Another grown ass man living in the 90's.

You can't say that if the movie is largely a shot-for-shot remake.  It lives in the 90's itself, and it's largely depending on 90's nostalgia.  You can't be lazy about making a film too similar to the original, then get mad at comparisons.

We don't know what the movie's gonna give. These reviews seem biased.
Nah they praised the people who did well

QuoteHe did, however, praise Seth Rogan's Pumbaa and Billy Eichner's Timon, as well as Scar, which seemed to be a theme throughout the critics. As Variety's Peter DeBruge similarly noted, "Rogen and Eichner's riffing sessions result in a fair amount of fresh material, and an overall even-more-likable version of these two beloved characters — although the most hilarious change to Timon's personality comes from observing how real meerkats sit, sprawling awkwardly back on their haunches. (To punch up their personalities even further, Favreau and DP Caleb Deschanel work out a GoPro-style way of "shooting" them at clownishly close range.)"

The Hollywood Reporter's Todd McCarthy also weighed in on Eijofor's representation of Scar. "As often happens, the villain here is arguably the most interesting figure," he wrote. "Some of this is attributable to the vocal work of Chiwetel Ejiofor, who mixes threat with an equal measure of what sounds like genuine world-weariness. His Scar is an outcast made to look a bit scrawny and more ragged and unkempt than his brawny brother; this is a lion who has lived in defeat and disregard for so long that he suspects he may well be done for. Still, he harbors enough malevolent resentfulness that he's able to come back to sinister life with the right opportunity.

After Aladdin and this, Disney may wanna take a break on these live action remakes a bit.

I can't recall seeing one I actually liked and wanted to see again.

Aladin is a week away from crossing a billion dollars worldwide

And the lion king will easily surpass it.

Y'all just type anything around these parts.  :uhh:

So that means it was good?

It means its making money faggot. Which means disney ain't suffering any kind of loss due to critics feeling they oversaturate the market and dim the lights on other smaller releases.

Aladin also has a HIGH audience score. So clearly ppl like it.

Stfu sometimes.

Fuck you BITCH. I never said Disney was suffering. The only point

There's no fucking point faggot.
Before you put on your rainbow cape n decided to jump on my quote button you should've fucking read the post above mine. All up in the koolaid and don't know the fucking flavor ass faggot. Idgaf about marvel or the aidsvengers. Stop being so damn thirsty.
