Jon Favreau is behind this. I believe the actual movie will be great. The marketing has been iffy.
I'd think the exact same thing if this were being handled by anyone else. But I think because all this is being limited to just previews for now, we are not seeing what's gonna make this special. I have never really seen Jon Favreau do a half-ass job.They removed all the expressions the characters had just so they can render realistic looking animals.
Nice graphics demo, nothing else.

Exactly this.My only interest in the film is seeing Pumba & Timon in action, eating bugs and singing. Oh and Rafiki doing martial arts at the end when he's fighting the Hyena's.
I'm expecting the rest of it to be pretty boring based on the trailers.
figured they would make a rap versioin
Why would you bet that?Lol I bet you did figure that
Apart from the fact that you.... posted it?Why would you bet that?
Agree original had more feeling plus that voice over at end ruins anything.
No guarantees it'll be stellar, but I can see at least one thing worthwhile in going live action (well, more like realistic CG).
My girlfriend is from South Africa. For her, that's not just a nice backdrop -- that's her homeland. And a more realistic look is not only like a visit home for people like her, it might do more to connect people to the real Africa than the animated version did. Insofar as a movie about talking animals can, anyway.

Soulless.
Did she live on the plains? Survivalist? That sounds crazy. I figured she would have lived somewhere like this above.
‘chu say?I personally can't stand Beyonce, so that's enough to put me off.

Fits perfectly with your aggressively mayo sapien responses in...other recent threads

bingo. there is a reason lawyers call copyright laws "Mickey Mouse laws". because Disney successfully lobbied to have copyright law altered in their favor.I just don't understand the point of remaking any of Disney's classic animated films as live action movies. Are they just trying to extend the copyright expiry dates?
