According to Johnny Depp , he currently has absolutely no interest in being in another Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Rottenborn also referenced something Depp had said in his deposition, in which he indicated that he would not want to work on “Pirates 6” if it were offered to him. “The fact is, M...

The Tinker Bell criticisms are odd, because those are the aspects that make her an interesting character rather than just any fairy. Interesting enough, Roger Ebert criticised "The Rescuers Down Under" on original release, because he felt the villain was dark shaded in a coded way . So thi...

It appears, based on comments from the directors and other artists working on the film, DNEG is continuing where Blue Sky left off rather than starting again from the beginning. Which is really neat. Honestly, Netflix has allowed so many exciting animated films to come to fruition that might otherwi...

Didn't part of Giselle's arc in the first film involve becoming more human and less stereotypical animated princess? I imagine her aging in the real world would be part of that and she would also embrace it, like she did when she discovered the ability to get angry. Part of what made Amy Adams's per...

Another example I remembered later is Coraline being advertised as "from the director of The Nightmare Before Christmas." Which is accurate, but since far more people think Tim Burton directed Nightmare rather than Henry Selick, that also seemed like they were trying to make people assume ...

They even used Moana (and Big Hero 6 ) to promote it, which I find curious considering this is a Netflix film. Though, come to think of it, I believe they also used Disney titles in the trailers for Glen Keane's Over the Moon . I remember one of the trailers for DreamWorks's "Mr. Peabody and S...

Also, even if a child is blocked from seeing homosexual attraction in media, they are still likely to see it out in the real world like a gay couple walking down the street or in the park. It's like when people complain about "forced diversity" in movies and shows. Do they only ever see wh...

I would have rather seen the animated short and the score Oscar presented live, the fact that they were announced via tweets is ridiculous. Yeah, I didn't like that either. All the categories should've been presented live. I wish there had been a stronger backlash and ABC would've been forced to ab...

It will be interesting if this changes how Disney selects songs to submit from their musicals in the future. I understand why "Dos Origuitas" was selected, but they certainly didn't expect "We Don't Talk About Bruno" to become the phenomenon it was. I think something that did hel...

Cinderella losing Best Song for Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo was terrible. Sleeping Beauty also should have won for Score for 1959. I was curious what they lost to. The song "Mona Lisa" was a hit in 1950 and listening to it now, outside of the context of "Captain Carey U.S.A.", it's a ni...

What I find absurd is that transgender people or two people of the same gender who happen to like each other are automatically associated with sex. Meanwhile, the same parents opposed to LGBTQ people have no problem letting their children watch movies or read stories like "The Little Mermaid&qu...

At that time, the producers were usually the only ones who went up to the stage to accept the Oscar. for Best Picture The current tradition where almost the entire cast and crew goes to the stage when the Best Picture winner was announced only started with "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of ...

The actors have said that Whedon was very dismissive of Snyder's movie when he was on set (Whedon has since also heavily criticised the rough cut he watched in later interviews), so in his mind, he was drastically improving the movie. Having seen both the theatrical cut and the Snyder Cut, I feel li...

In this day and age, reshoots/additional photography is usually already included in the schedule from the beginning. Marvel is especially known for always doing reshoots and their track record speaks for itself. And on the Lucasfilm side, the "Rogue One" reshoots led to most peoples' favou...

China has been less receptive to Hollywood films lately, with Disney being one of the worst hit studios as none of last year's Marvel movies were approved for release there and Encanto and Jungle Cruise did minuscule numbers there. So they probably don't expect Lightyear to make much in China, anywa...

I also assume they hate that a Disney movie is tackling menstruation, even though the allegory is subtle enough that the large majority of children won't pick up on it. It will be a movie that children will love because of the funny antics with the giant red panda and then they re-watch as an adult ...

Weird remark. Feels like the ongoing nostalgia for the Disney Renaissance films and the massive box-office success of the live-action Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin indicate people do still retain an enthusiasm for Alan Menken songs. "Cruella" also made over $200 million in the middle of...

I don't think you can limit low-quality live-action Disney films to the last thirty years. I've been watching the movies on Disney+ in chronological order and that gave me a lesson in how much the studio struggled in the '70s after Walt died. I sat through some dire films from that period. I would t...

There are some live-action directors who have largely stuck with one studio for most of their careers. Judd Apatow directed all of his movies for Universal until he recently moved to Netflix for his next film. Quentin Tarantino worked almost exclusively for the Weinsteins until the scandal. M. Night...

I grew up watching and loving (and still loving) the meta-Spielberg cartoons like "Animaniacs" and "Tiny Toon Adventures", so I've always enjoyed meta humour. Hence this movie seems right up my alley, as it's definitely going for "Animaniacs"-style humour. A commentary ...
