Really? Why?

Too much gimmick, not enough of the stuff I like?

You don't really get to make those characters yours.

*nod* I have the feeling the live-action "Aladdin" will suffer some of that. I -LIKE- Will Smith and his work for the most part. I do.

But he had to step into Robin's curl-toed slippers... and there's no winning that.

I loathe Beauty & the Beast more than Shrek, fwiw?

Well, from what I have seen, he is not trying to "be" Williams

I like the songs they added!

No, he's not, which is a BRILLIANT choice... and the only choice... but he's GOING to get compared.

Yeah. My concern is what I've seen of Jafar, actually. Not enough trailer to be sure, but he seems to lack the droll sneering style I like (as much as one can like the villain) in the animated movie

agreed

Jafar seems flat

A & J seem dull

I admit, I liked the Aladdin movie a LOT so this new take may have a lot to live up to.

I could have unfair expectations 😉

ehhhh

I'll give it a shot in fairness. Point is... well, EVERY ACTOR after Robert Preston was doing a good Robert Preston impression. Every actor playing the King of Siam after Yule Brenner was doing a good Yule Brenner.

so far, the live action remakes have been disappointing, at best

Some have been outright bad

What I really want to know is how the FUCK did they do these costume/MAKE UP changes for Fiona?!?!?

I liked Maleficent, but maleficent wasn't a remake.

foam latex masks, iirc

Nope, new story. And I was meh on it.

Yeah, foam latex masks, fine, but in 2 seconds?

You can't PAINT THE BOSOMS GREEN in that time!?!?

I do get tired of the lets make the villain sympathetic thing. It usually means someone else is going to be made a jerk to make it make sense.

Oh, you can

Where is my She-Hulk movie/show? At mention of Bosoms Green

They make FL chests

build the chest/padding into the dress

FL?

foamlatex but lazy

Ok... I guess I could see it was the dress but DAMN that was a flawless rig.

Well, the changes had to be in SECONDS.

if it is the film with sutton foster, they faked it

I like the way they're doing curtain call.

did more elaborate makeup, filmed parts in an empty theatre

broadway ogre fiona is much simpler

Ahhhh.... ok. Yes, it's that one.

A pulp heroine costumer who uses advanced tech for quick bosom assembly, they call her the Rack-ateer!

D. Go to your room.

I don't blame for faking it, although a card at the front saying it had been, in parts, would have been more honest. (August's $0.02.)

fair

it happens with stage-on-film stuff

stuff that works in proscenium doesn't always do so on film

Word.

soooo

Yus?
