shareThe Lion King Is Going to be A box office Juggernaut....
Its either going to be the 1st or 2nd highest grossing movie of the year next(depending on Avengers 4)
The Lion King is probably the most beloved animated films of all time.....It almost made 1 Billion 25 years ago
Its going to be this years Beauty and The Beast ONLY Bigger....
I'm predicting a 200 Million + opening and a 1.3 to 1.5 Billion dollar gross....Its going to be a PHENOM!
Yeah, i'm there in the seat for sure when it comes out, i'm just not sure if my soul can handle the stampede scene again :-(
shareNot necessarily, meat people on YouTube are not to happy with he direction this film is taking....first of all there are several people who aren't crazy about James Earl Jones coming back as Mufasa cause it literally defeats the purpose of it being a remake, they literally have to have a different voice actor for it to count as a true remake.
Second, it would that they are literally making some changes to Scar that many people aren't too crazy about, like the fact that they're literally may completely remove Scar's Be Prepared song from the movie which is not over well with meny people....so this movie literally has quite a few things going against it, we'll see see what happens when it comes out.
I personal guaranteed those things you listed will have literally ZERO effect...
and the reason why is....Over 90% of the audience that Will this movie is Families taking their younger children....
simply put, the potential problems you listed wont even register on the Minds of Kids....and Their parents wont care either because they are't going because They are deeply interest in the movie or fans, they just taking Their children...
The Problems you mentioned Truly May only apply to absolute Hardcore Lion King fans...which make up less than 5% of the audience that is going to see this film...
without exaggerating, probably 85 to 90% of the people that see this film wont even know changes were made ....
The Jungle Book changed all kinds of things in The Live action remake, had new and different songs and changed the ending...It still made over 1 Billion and Had excellent WOM and receptions...the reason why was, The Audience were Children and Parents...The children arent old enough to care about a few changes or even really notice them and The Parents are interested enough in the movie or Its original to care they changed something...
I personal Guarantee 1 Billion dollars is the absolute FLOOR for The Lion King
