I have a hill too!

I think the live-action Cinderella was FABULOUS! Yes it followed the same story but I don't care. The casting was perfect, the costumes were amazing, the colors were luscious and the music was beautiful.

No other live-actions have lived up to it for me. I've liked some just fine but I can re-watch Cinderella again and again. Hoping I feel this way about Little Mermaid!

Perhaps it was Kenneth Branagh's direction. I'm also enjoying his take on all the Agatha Christie movies for pretty much the same reasons listed above.
Yes… I am looking forward to his Haunting in Venice in just a couple of weeks

I guess only the bad movies go to D+

Helena Bonham Carter in anything 😍
(Although Billy Porter held his own 😂)

I don’t know if this is real, but……….

Complete with the "prove us wrong five or ten years from now when you have completely forgotten this movie and never ask us again" kicker.
Perhaps there is a Universal fan site for you and your hater friends instead. Or an MGM fan site. Or a swimming at the beach fan site. Or a kite flying fan site. Or a knitting fan site. Clearly, Disney is making you all so resentful and upset. I worry for your collective blood pressure. Perhaps time to explore other options.

Do you ever try to actually discuss the actual substance of a thread? Before tangents…of course…

It would be therapeutic.

Let’s try: how much money did the little mermaid make?
Did it get to what Disney wanted…like at least Aladdin, BATB kinda gross?

Surely it did🤓

Some of us simply aren’t as interested in that question as those constantly asking it are. We get it: the film was a box-office disappointment. But why must that be the obsessive focus of this thread?
Nothing else bad to say about it.

I wish someone would start a box office thread so all the same complaints would be in one place. Oh, wait . . .
