If this movie does not become the highest grossing Disney film ever, at the very least it will become the most streamed/purchased film ever for a period of time.
The cgi animal characters in the Jungle Book only worked because they were secondary to the human actor.
I have a tough time seeing them balancing the realism with anthropomorphism that will be necessary for the CGI characters to carry all the story weight.
We'll probably end up with something resembling more of a super-detailed pixar-looking movie.

Stop dickriding, this wont even make Beauty and the Beast numbers

Never stop being so obvious, Hollywood.
Owen Mitchell
>literally the exact same movie with a different animation style and a similar cast
Why?
Ian Bell
>Seth Rogen as Pumbaa
casting Seth Rogen as a retarded fat pig is solid.
Juan Miller
So are they using real lions, or is this a CGI lion? If it is, it looks pretty good. If they're using real lions, that's fucking crazy.
Anthony Green
Live action finding nemo when?
Logan Bailey
Out of 4 main characters 3 are negros, and the white one is the main antagonist? Sounds about right.
Brandon Martinez
Came here to ask this.
What's the point? The Lion King was a great movie, which is why we don't need to make it anymore. It already exists.
Are the people at Disney so creatively bankrupt that they need to recycle the glory of days gone?
Or did some suit just calculate that this is the most efficient cashgrab they can produce?

Why they just couldn't get Jonathan Taylor Thomas as Simba and Rowan Atkinson as Zazu since they got James Earl Jones, the millennials would be all over this
Gavin Nguyen
That's exactly what this is. They barely have to write scripts or advertise. Just recreate all the old cartoons(poorly) and sit back and count your billions.
Adam Price
>Are the people at Disney so creatively bankrupt that they need to recycle the glory of days gone?
that's all they ever did.
Camden Wood
>mfw they're making a Mulan live action turd but they already confirmed that all songs have been cut
Other than Beyonce, I'd say that cast is pretty perfect for voice acting. Donald Glover improves most everything he's in and James Earl Jones is perfect for Mufasa. I'm a little hesitant about le wacky British man but the role does suit him.
Ryan Bennett
Seriously? That's a damn shame. "A Girl Worth Fighting For," is the best song in any Disney movie.
Thomas Peterson
>you are in the wrong side of history
That's not an argument. That's just saying: In my estimation things are going my way right now so why don't you give up?
Liberals love to believe that as time passes the world will somehow magically gravitate towards what they consider to be 'progress', but the world doesn't bend to your will and the future has a very broad spectrum of possibilities.
We would probably both be surprised if we could see what the world looks like in a 100 years. To believe we know today, who will be 'on the right side of history' is nothing but a telltale sign of arrogance and foolishness.

Jackson Carter
Did you see Rogue One? JEJ is sounding very old.
Jason Rivera
>casting black people to voice African characters is bad If anything, the one out of place here is Hugh Jackman. Would you cast white people to voice Kirikou ?
Joseph Sullivan
Hope not the songs are what made it great. Hope Eddie Murphy comes back
Austin Diaz
>James Earl Jones is perfect for Mufasa He was. Do you think they even bothered to pay him to rerecord the lines?
Josiah Hernandez
only reason it's going to work and will be big *again* is because lions are the most popular shit ever.
Matthew Smith
Jews make up 5% of the population so what?
Gavin Brown
I thought Hugh Jackman was confirmed not in the cast though? Is Beyonce a lock?

Gavin Morales
So... can they speak normal or is it going to be 'ebonics'?
Levi Campbell
I really don't like donald glover. He ruined himself by being childish gambino.
