Live-Action ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’

[Willmark]

Never claimed you said the actual word conspiracy.

I give you an A for effort on that one.

I give you an A for effort on that one.

Thanks for the grade, but you never disputed any of the actual facts I stated which refute your claims.

The actors strike pushed back an already shot movie from its release date in spring 2024 to 2025?

It required that much post-production work they needed and extra year based on the actors strike?

I am baffled by that reasoning as well.

Especially since Disney is about to go into a six month long stretch where they will release no movies in theaters, and they have a $200 Million tentpole done and sitting on the shelf but have decided to wait another 16 months to release it in March, 2025?

The strike that's now over is a patently absurd reason to delay an allegedly completed movie an additional year.

I think the bigger issue is the strikes lasted a good while and many studios are moving completed movies so they have something to fill the gap while they get production back up and running. It has the added benefit of giving more time for all the discourse around the film to die down.

That’s because your quasi-strawman was noted for what it was.

It’s entirely possible. I noted my wondering in the form of a question (even used a ?) so kudos to you for thoughtful commentary.

As to your last its very possible, Disney is not dumb and realizes they need some space/damage control what have you with Snow White.

Sounds much better than the Disney one.

 

[Tony the Tigger]

Recasting existing characters who have established backstory and lore, rooted in actual places and times in human history, with minorities for no narrative purpose other than proving your progressive bona fides is "culture war," yes. It's the recasting that's the problem, because it implies that the whiteness of the characters in the source material is an evil that needs to be corrected.

Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson, aka Falcon = Good

Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson, aka Captain America = Also Good!

Anthony Mackie as Steve Rogers = Bad

BS. This is snowflake territory.

Look at that, marketing clean-up in Fantasyland

LOL

- "Barely watched it, only part I think worth mentioning is negative."
- "I love everything Disney has made!"

This will work perfectly so long as everyone has the memory of a goldfish.

Lol my thoughts exactly.

It’s a little wink from her to let everyone know “Disney is making me say this.”

Are you all planning to rake Hugh Grant over the coals too because he said something that a movie studio might not like, or does it only matter when it’s Zegler?

Hugh Grant loathed playing an Oompa Loompa: 'I couldn't have hated it more'

'It should be fun, but that was done by the animator.'

Well the difference is Hugh isn't ranking on the original Charlie and the chocolate factory. He's ranking on having to use motion capture tech and how bad of an experience that was. And yea, he might take some flack if the movie underperforms because the headline wants people to think he hated the movie itself.

Doesn’t matter. He’s still complaining about his own film to reporters. Does he need a lesson in public speaking like you all said Rachel Zegler needs? And how bout all these people?

[MoonRakerSCM]

Yes, he does.

What now?

 

[BuddyThomas]

Yes, he does.

What now?

Huh?

 

[The Mom]

Huh?

He needs a lesson on how to talk in public about his movie roles.

 

[MoonRakerSCM]

As pointed out, his complaints about his film are entirely different. That being said though, and as pointed out, the media pounces on anything they can sway negative and it seems that box office results are increasingly fragile and anything can cause loses.
