jehurey 3,227 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 You can tell Disney poured more money into this one compared to the other remakes. It looks great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guarantee you these will be the most expressive REALISTIC looking lions you've ever seen And no, they quite clearly show Scar talking in 2 scenes, and it looked great.. lmao wtf. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_lion_king_2019 57% also looks like i was spot on about the very deliberate style of editing in the trailers that mostly shied away from direct shots of characters speaing, trying to mask the lack of expression, as its cited as a real issue by most critics.

Nobody was ever expecting this to be universally praised... People were just itching to hate on the realistic looking visuals. "Waaahhh, why doesn't the realistic looking lion animate as expressively as a Disney cartoon?" Fucking idiots Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Voidler 1,675 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 These remakes are pointless and stupid. Maybe good for one interesting side glance, but if I’m ever in the mood to go back and watch Lion King or Alladin I’ll be watching the real thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fucking idiots this was directed by someone that previously directed another disney remake that was basically universally praised (jungle book). other mediocre disney remakes like beauty and the beast and cinderella managed scores in the 70's/80's. and your incredulous ass was not having even one lone dissenting opinion (mine) itt that this looked awful from the jump. yeah, no, im gonna say, no one including you was ever expecting the praise for this to be near the bottom of disney remakes alongside aladdin and dumbo - except me of course, as usual.

Everyone knew there would be backlash to the realism of it. It's not about the direction... it's about "the realistic bland unexpwessiv animalzz" Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Twinblade★ 3,892 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Those reviews are really disappointing. This is the one Disney property I still have a huge attachment to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Delita 698 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Mulan is going to be shit too. They removed all the songs completely as a pretext to not have its most iconic song "I'll make a man out of you" which wouldn't fit in today's sjw cuck world. Disney Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Mother Fucker 26 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 it's all just wrong. I don't like the realistic animals. Cartoony animals are just more funnier. This guy gets it. and it applies to every cartoon with animal characters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quad Damage 1,717 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 this is even worse than i thought its not just the lack of expressiveness in the animals faces and lack of vibrancy in the bg/color palette, its the filmmaking on the whole thats downgraded. the vocal performance, camera work, and storyboarding of this sequence are just flat and lifeless, with zero visual gags like the original to keep it lively - just one long boring take walking in a straight line.

jehurey 3,227 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Those are just bad, unrealistic physics for a young, vibrant lion. As least make him act like a powerful cat. Also, looking at real videos of lions, you can tell that the back legs feel like they run independently of the front legs, but the CGI makes it look like all the weight in the lion is up in his shoulders. Maybe its because they want to keep the held steady at all times for you to see the mouth movement. He moves like a car inkstand of an animal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
