Do interviews with the cast of a movie help promote a movie? I thought I'd ask because Ariana and Chris are set to do interviews and Disney has been ramping up on promotional material for Wish and I think because of the now-ended SAG-AFTRA strike, actors couldn't do interviews or attend premieres or...

Actually, Phil Collins retired due to spinal deterioration, nerve damage and (I think) diabetes.

I’m so used to the “Human Again” sequence being in the film, it feels slightly jarring to see the “theatrical” edition transition from “Something There” to the Beast taking a bath.

Okay, I don’t know if this goes here, but I watched the movie for the first time on 4K UHD Blu-Ray and I really enjoyed it. At times, the colors looked pretty darn close to the original theatrical colors. Even though it’s the theatrical cut, for some reason, they haven’t reverted the original shot o...

Not to be a shill and I haven’t watched it myself, but from what I heard, the special acts as though Disney is the only company to do any pandering in recent years.

New international trailers dropped.

Disney’s Chief Diversity Officer Latondra Newton Exits https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/disneys-chief-diversity-officer-latondra-newton-exits-1235650198/ Disney Names Tinisha Agramonte Chief Diversity Officer https://variety.com/2023/tv/news/disney-tinisha-agramonte-chief-diversity-officer-12357621...

Another thing I love about the short is that some of the princesses (namely Aurora, Ariel and Belle) were in their peasant/casual outfits as opposed to their (overly-marketed) princess gowns.

I’ll have to rewatch to be sure, but I think that he tripped on watermelons.

I think they were the trolls (as rolling rocks) from Frozen

Yeah, it’s them.

If it means anything, I don’t own a 4K player yet but I’ve been sort of future-proofing my collection by getting all of the hand-drawn Disney films currently available on 4K. I kind of sworn off getting into another format after the whole DVD vs BD thing, but I couldn’t pass up after I saw how grea...

After Wish, Lee teases further exploration into how hand-drawn animation works alongside CG animation, noting one of her filmmakers is already at work on such a project. Source: https://ew.com/movies/disney-100-year-anniversary-wish-once-upon-a-studio/ I’m genuinely curious how that’d work. I’m not...

Well, only time will tell if Fixed ends up being a critical and financial hit. I’m not saying it won’t be, of course, but we shall see.

I only hope that the movie doesn’t have the characters swearing every other line, like a certain first mainstream R-rated CGI film.

I’m genuinely debating whether or not to buy Snow White and Cinderella (along with- maybe The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and The Lion King) on physical 4K. Should I go for it?

So basically, every other animated non-package film from those decades? Good gravy, imagine how Sleeping Beauty would look if they restored it from an original negative (as much as I love the restoration we’ve had as of 2008).

Sure, here it is. Check the replies to the original post.

PMF on the forum mentioned 7 remaining titles. Which ones do they mean?

First looks at Claire Wheeler, Johnny Worthington and Chet Alexander: https://x.com/disneyapromos/status/1713634308978577859?s=61&t=EQ_kqTRXKVpECbksqAkz8A I’m… a bit on the fence with these designs, namely Johnny and Chet. Maybe it’s the jacket Johnny’s wearing, but he seems a bit more heavy-set...

Not to be Mr. Negative, but I’m worried that the movie will end up bombing. :huh: There's no need to worry. The second Wish trailer was the most watched trailer for a WDAS since Frozen 2. That's an indication the film will perform well. Besides, after Stanger World, there's no place to go but up. A...

Not to be Mr. Negative, but I’m worried that the movie will end up bombing. :huh: A part of me wants to tell the folks who say it will bomb and/or refuse to see it, “Fine. Go ahead and don’t see it. But if it flops and when they announce another Frozen or Toy Story sequel or more live action remakes...

I don’t know if Disney as a company is no worse off than it was the previous three years, but my faith in Iger is seriously waning. Heck, at this point, I can’t help but think he’s letting things tank on purpose.
