Yes, You've posted similar "Its a wrap" tweets before, such as these at the end of July...

Note its all the same people in the pics, these are just their individual Twitter (X) accounts.







This is not new news.

Oops!

The thing that intrigues me most (at the moment) about Wish is the setting. It is very Southern Spain/very Northern Africa/Mediterranean and that is a very fresh feel. It seems to be able to pass for anywhere along the Mediterranean coast and that is an area of world that Disney has not explored.

A few years ago (pre-pandemic), there were rumors swirling about surrounding a project called "Sade" about an African girl/princess unaware of powers that would need to be used to fight off invaders. I wonder if Wish replaced that (although I had read it was intended to be live-action). Or perhaps they scrapped it just a very ambiguous idea they had.

It was confirmed that the movie takes place in the Iberian Peninsula. In addition, The Little Mermaid and Hercules' locations are Mediterranean countries.

Nice catch. I think what this shows is what many of us suspect; that the average Hollywood career person is desperate for adulation and attention, as those Hollywood types have always been. When they were in Junior High, it was their awful school play they obsessed over even though most of the student body didn't care about the dumb play and was more concerned about the upcoming school dance.

Now for those same people 20 years later, it's their latest corporate gig they shill for and peddle on Social Media.

Or....

stick with me now....

this is just a bunch of co-workers who all worked on the same project posting pics from a wrap party at different times on their personal accounts. All I was pointing out to the poster was the production had already wrapped and that this wasn't anything more than what had already been posted.

Boomer, I know you abhor much of the social media generation especially those using it for monetary purposes, and modern Hollywood in general. But sometimes a social media post is just for fun, nothing more.

Also we all crave some type of adulation at some point in our lives, you act like this is something unusual that applies to only the theater kids that grew up and went to Hollywood.

So really this is the social media generation doing what they always do, posting their lives on Twitter (X), TikTok, Intsa, and whatever other social media platform they use now a days.

Maybe you're right? It's like a smart psychologist once said... Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

I'm not a fan of "The Teens". I can already tell an amount of time is going to be wasted on these useless characters.

It's hard to tell. The marketing of Disney movies often hypes up a minor supporting character who ends up not being in the film much at all (Pua in Moana, Clod in Elemental, Pauly Shore's character in A Goofy Movie, etc.).

Hey! I didn’t know, okay? I blame Instagram or X formerly known as Twitter for making me confused. Internet these days!

Drama Nerds are worst than Band Geeks.

 

[lazyboy97o]

Not really related to this upcoming film, but given that Wish is major celebratory animated film that is the one of most-anticipated film this year, assuming Wish giving IMAX limited-time release, they could follow Oppenheimer's path by extending the run at IMAX theaters due to popular demand if Disney listen their audiences. Here, Oppenheimer given extended IMAX theatrical run until August 31.

This is about a very specific format that is only available at 19 theaters in the US, some of which are museums. It’s an extension for a very small set of theaters for a format that will almost certainly not be offer for Wish.

 

[Phroobar]

Again, I didn’t know. I’m not trying to be drama nerd, even though I have my moments.

Did you take drama in high school and be in plays? My wife's family are total band geeks. They were all in marching band and some later in a professional rock group.

Well, yes. I just like to be in musicals. I thought you or somebody accused me for being overly dramatic, even though it might true.

No. Wasn't trying to. But I worry that you might take this strike a little too hard. Maybe it will lead to a better system without a union and the chance for others to submit scripts.

Not likely, WGA and SAG/AFTRA would have to both agree to disband, and I don't see that happening.

But who knows, stranger things have happened.

With the exception of my Aunt Ingrid, I had a rather typical, waspy family who couldn't do much of anything but work for 40 years in successful white collar careers and then play a lot of tennis.

What's the cover charge to be a guest at your house on Thanksgiving? I'd love to see how that evening goes.

It's very calm and a little boring. Christmas is better when the grandkids bring out their instruments and play various Christmas songs.

Only 100 days left for the premiere of Wish and they still haven’t release a second trailer of it yet! I know, I know, the trailer will drop, when it drops. I just don’t want WDAS make that same mistake again with Strange World even though it’s not really a good film.

If you believe some of the rumors, that release date may be Wish-ful thinking

Ho ho! Very funny! Ha ha! It is to laugh!
