Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
If they're deliberately leaving out the human character from the marketing because they know that audiences don't like these characters, why are you putting one in the movie in the first place?

Uh, someone made a little collage with pics from the trailer documenting that this leak is accurate...!

This all sounds like trash. Obviously not catering to the Disney fan market... I'm so confused by this whole film. But if some/most people at test screenings like it, who are those people? Like, what kinds of movies do they like?!The Critical 'Outside The Cube' Thinking Critique (@ACriticalHuman) Tweeted:
@rageofkyubii @squidmamaart I'm currently revisiting the trailer, and comparing it back to back with this apparent plot leak from 4chan.
Based on the details I picked up from it, there's a high chance that all of this is accurate and actually does happen in the movie. https://t.co/iXNYhttAaC https://twitter.com/ACriticalHuman/stat ... 5cS0RmrT3A

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
It baffles me that Disney apparently has so little confidence in their own legacy and characters that they think it all has be spruced up by meta storylines and adding weird non sensical crap and human characters. The main premise of Chip and Dale would still work really well with a good story instead of having to go all meta Shrek on everything. It's been done, it's not clever and it's an insult to the source material...

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
This is why Disney's stock is going down:

Who the hell wants this? Who looks at this and say "this is classic Disney"?!
This is even worse than RBTI, the company is truly losing its identity once more.

Can we sue Disney for crimes against cinema? Seriously, they need to be stopped.
Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
The trailer also made me think of the Disney princesses in Ralph Breaks the Internet. Something like this would be fine if it was from another studio, but not from Disney and especially not using Chip and Dale and other classic characters.

You're all a bunch of snowflakes!!
I laughed!
That wasn't a joke.
It's true.
And I'm 1000 times more interested in this than The Little Mermaid and Snow White remakes. I wanna see it. If it is a trainwreck, at least it looks like it will be a memorable one!

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
That picture of PP made me burst out laughing.
I'm going to try to resist with TLM, but I don't really want to pay to see any of the three of them, tbh. That said, at least this one's purposely trying to be stupid rather than those two. So far, all the jokes make it sound Who Framed Roger Rabbit?-esque, only with much worse animation.Jules wrote: And I'm 1000 times more interested in this than The Little Mermaid and Snow White remakes.

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
There was an extended trailer for this (I don't know if it was already posted here, I haven't bothered with any of the clips for this that have been posted) during the airing of Beauty and the Beast (the original) on ABC last night. The hand-drawn half of the film doesn't look perfect, but it's better than if everything was 3D like the horrible Smurfs and Chipmunks movies. TBH, I know this is again a minority opinion: it made me laugh. I like looking around the scenes and trying to spot characters like Lumiere--and I also like that there are anime and stop-motion characters. (There was a fan at the event with Chip and Lumiere who was dressed as Moana.) Flounder, looking as if he's an aging actor in a penthouse or something, getting attacked by a polar bear--
Some of the other murder victims (as drawings pinned on a cop's board) were Gus from Cinderella, one of the Tweedles from Alice, Sneezy from Snow White. They even showed a shot of Pluto, I believe, post-transformation. I'm personally not angry about that character being the villain, I thought that was funny from when it was first posted. Admittedly, I've always hated PP (the character), which might be why him as an over-the-hill drunk loser makes me laugh. I wouldn't say this film is something I'd ever buy, just something to see once at least.
Thankfully I've been able to see Disney+ things lately. I had no idea this and Lightyear were coming so soon; the commercial said this should be streaming May 20th.
Is that for a $30 price tag or will it be free to view on that date??

I've seen speculation that Mean Dean, aka Peter Pan, may actually be Fat Cat in disguise.
Thoughts?

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
I mean, it's way better than it being the "actual" Peter Pan. I know that I don't like any of what I've seen of this film, but my least favorite part was old Peter Pan. I guess I just found it offensive as a Disney fan. Not that it doesn't make you a Disney fan if you're not offended. You know what I mean!Avaitor wrote:I've seen speculation that Mean Dean, aka Peter Pan, may actually be Fat Cat in disguise.

Lightyear is actually going to theaters, not D+ right away, and there's no way on this green Earth that Chip 'N Dale will be an extra $30. I haven't heard any plans for Premiere Access for any of the upcoming films.Disney's Divinity wrote:Thankfully I've been able to see Disney+ things lately.

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
Disney hasn't utilised Premier Access since "Jungle Cruise." They pretty much abandoned that model after "Shang-Chi" did really well in theatres. In fact, most of the other studios have largely abandoned the day-and-date release and are now releasing their movies exclusively in theatres first. The only major studio who appears to still be doing it is Universal, but after "Firestarter" is released next week in both theatres and streaming, I think they will also stop.
"Chip n Dale: Rescue Rangers" is a Disney+ exclusive and those have never used Premier Access. They only applied it to movies opening in theatres.

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
Good to know! So I'll see this in two weeks then!


OMG, that would be hilarious, too, and clever if so. I had wondered why Peter Pan was being used for so much in the trailer when all the other Disney characters were merely one-scene only or cameos.Avaitor wrote:I've seen speculation that Mean Dean, aka Peter Pan, may actually be Fat Cat in disguise.

So, they're doing parodies of Gumby and the Muppets, too?

Re: Chip 'n' Dale: Rescue Rangers (Live-Action)
I was happy to see Muppets were included actually. I'd already seen the stop-motion character in the trailers. Who is the Thor-esque character supposed to be? Something from Marvel?
