Disney and the directors of Frozen have explicitly stated that they want to work on a Broadway musical before they even think about a sequel.

Tony Stark & Bruce Banner Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas-esque road trip/buddy comedy needs to come before all that

Macaluso posted:I am just so NOT excited for that movie at all, and Angelina Jolie being the one playing Malificent (who I already am not a huge fan of villain wise) just makes me SO uninterested. I'd rather see like, the chick who plays Regina on Once Upon a Time take on the role instead.

So Legends of Oz is a musical. I mean, I read that on Wikipedia the other day, and it's not like I mind since I'm not seeing it anyway, but I only just saw the first commercial that included this fact, and there have been Oz commercials on Cartoon Network all the time. It just seems like such a weird detail to leave out until two days before release.

The ad campaign for this has been absolutely all the hell over the place that it feels like their ad team got fired multiple times or the producer in charge is a moron*. The first ones were just "dark oz adventures", the second set "its a sequel, look, and its lighthearted and funny", and now the third set is "oh yeah its a musical, did we not tell you?" *Its probably this

It's just loving amazing how poo poo Disney adverts had been the last few years, are they trying to tank all their movies in some sort of crazy tax loophole scheme?

Weirdly, Disney and Summertime Entertainment (makers of Legends of Oz) both seem to be making the same mistakes Dreamworks marketing was, but recently averted with the spoilery but at least engaging trailer for HTTYD2.

Also, I never watched Glee, so when they kept advertising that Dorothy is voiced by Lea Michele, I had no idea who the gently caress that was and had to look her up. Thanks, Legends of Oz. Now I feel like an old person.

Don't worry, I'm 21 and I don't know what the gently caress. Actually I do, and it's bad marketing. In any case it seems appropriate to the movie as on Rotten Tomatoes it's currently rated 0%. Say what you will about RT, when there's consensus you know if it's a bad movie or not.

Yeah, what's the purpose of autotuning someone who can already sing on key? While Glee actually has done some nice covers, they also have a (seemingly more recent) habit of covering songs in the exact same style as the original, which for me defeats the whole purpose. They also have a habit of stealing unique cover arrangements of songs without giving any credit or acknowledgment to the cover artist (e.g., Jonathan Coulton). The characters are also weirdly, impossibly toony and unsettingly over-the-top. IRL, in today's litigious, often-PC, often-ultra-sensitive school environment, not only would Sue Sylvester be canned, but school boards would build a time machine so that they could retroactively fire her at her interview. Mind you, I don't hate Glee by any means. Oh, and Legends of Oz is up to 16% on RT, because some reviewers clearly do not know how to movie. Plastic Dorothy is horrifying. Only the owl is marginally cute-looking.

Autotuning is a deliberate stylistic choice rather than an attempt to mask a lack of singing ability; If that's your goal then there are much better ways of making a person sound better without making them sound like a robot in the process.

Sorry for crossposting from the other animation thread: Lava Lamp Goddess posted:This isn't so much a passion project, but it certainly is troubled. "Waaah, the evil critics are making our picture look awful! Man are our investors going to be pissed!" Sounds like time for another lawsuit.

Autotune used to make people "sound better" is pretty much unnoticeable. A bunch of people, notably T-Pain, realized it sounds different when you really crank it the gently caress up, and then everyone got mad.

It's always hilarious watching a bunch of blowhards contort logic in order to shift the blame. Honestly - some of the character designs didn't look too bad - if given a little more polish, but everything else about the trailers is just loving awful and everyone saw through it as a shallow cashgrab.

Guys. Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 is on Netflix streaming now. It's awesome, and I might have liked it more than #1. It may even have more jokes per second than The Lego Movie, and I felt it landed them all. I can't recall this thread's opinion of the movie, but as soon as I saw it was on there, I stopped what we were going to do and watched that instead. Just figured I'd PSA the thread in case anyone was looking to watch the movie. The villain character has amazingly weird animation. Especially towards the end when he goes full on mandala mode.

I think it's mostly that the original Cloudy (which isn't on Netflix Instant sadly) was amazing, and while 2 had some great cartoony animation and a ton of puns the script didn't have the sheer density of jokes and attention to detail that the original did because Lord and Miller were working on the Lego movie instead.

I watched Cloudy 2 the other day as well, I don't think it's on the same level as 1 and parts of the script are a bit clunky, repeated, or irrelevant (why is Brent even there, he contributes nothing), but there's some really great design work and cute moments. Nothing quite made me laugh as hard as 1, but it's worth a look, for sure.
