Hopefully they change the name to South America, to go with the continents theming they have with Africa and Asia. Plus I really dislike the name Tropical America. It doesn't clearly say what it is and it sounds like a generic, lame name.

 

[MickeyMouse10]

I can't stand Encanto. The songs suck from it and the characters move around too much. Just like in the other terrible movie Turning Red.

And of course it is missing a major villain and a love interest for the main character.

Was anyone going to the theaters in 2021 with COVID scares floating around ?

Tropical America's allows them to include a broader range of destinations from Central America, even Mexico, and all of South America. (perhaps even some island feels like in the Caribbean). I honestly don't hate the name 'Tropical Americas', it serves a purpose here.

Was anyone going to the theaters in 2021 with COVID scares floating around ?

The current 7th Highest Grossing Film of All Time, Spider-Man: No Way Home, came out three weeks after Encanto, so while 2021 was certainly an odd year for film going, when people really wanted to go... they went.

We're living in a time where bad tv shows (the Watchmen and Lovecraft Country) and bad movies (Soul) win awards because of diversity.

Now explain how the 29 billion minutes streamed is due to diversity.

LOL. No one wanted to see it in theaters, so they waited til it was on D-. Probably with free or cheap subscriptions.

... And before you blame Covid for it's dismal box office.

... Spiderman: No Way Home came out less than a month later.

 

[MLevell]

I meant my post to be a lightly humorous point about how there can sometimes be a disconnect between what feels like a hit or failure and their actual box office performance. And now if feels like I accidentally provided fuel for some posters that lean a little uh... Song of The South-y.

The Watchmen was fantastic! Lovecraft Country was definitely uneven, but the book isn't that great either. I will say that Turning Red was one of Pixar's best in recent years. As for Encanto, the music is catchy but the lyrics are pretty bad and the movie's plot is a bit clunky. The main character is the reason why the movie is watchable for me, but nowhere near a Moana or Tangled in terms of recent Disney animated films.

I was hoping for racist dog whistles in here. It had been a few days.

 

[James Alucobond]

dog whistles

That implies subtlety. When you just straight up say it, it’s more a klaxon.

Spider-Man was so obviously the exception to this rule. Please stop trying to spin this false narrative that Encanto is a flop when in every metric aside from box office it was a massive success. You don't have to like it but to try to make these convoluted arguments that it was a flop is just weird.

 

[Timothy_Q]

A super hero movie based on Marvel's most popular character made more money than an original animated musical?

Wow shocking

Stupid Walt making Saludos Amigos and The Three Caballeros and cramming Latin American foreign culture down the throat of pure-blooded Mericans. The corporation did it again!!!!

 

[sedati]

The Watchmen was fantastic!

The Watchmen was the illusion of fantastic. I have never seen a promising show fall so completely apart by the end since... Lost.

None of the problems were with diversity. They all fall onto Damon Lindelof who I am consistently shocked still finds work.

I had no idea this creature exists, but now if there is at least one animal exhibit in the Tropical Americas please let it be the "Ghost Bird" aka Potoo:



Perfect creature to encounter on the way to Indiana Jones.
