thanks, i hate it
>>152930966I still haven’t seen any of these live action adaptations
>>152930966Rock's only doing this because Black Adam bombed
>>152931004Good on ya
>>152931043It will probably make a billion like Moana 2 and live action Lilo
is it worth knowing about or caring about the live action disney movies? what's the takeaway here
>>152931115This, sadly. It looks like shit, but it most likely make gorillions of dollars.
>>152931040Gotta admit, if you're going to cast a live action version of Maui, "The Rock" is a pretty good choice (although he might be getting a little old for this).What I don't get is making a live-action version of Moana that from the trailer appears to be a shot-for-shot remake of the animated original, with so much CGI that there would hardly be any difference between the two versions.
Rock's skinnier face with that muscle suit is tripping me out.
>>152930966So just, the Rock in a wig?
>>152930966Now we're going to get to see a live action version of The Rock singing You're Welcome... Hopefully it's even more meme-worthy.
>>152931040That film was five years ago and he been in other films since, quit your nonsense talking.
>>152930966The poster looks like a porno parody
>>152930966Looks retarded
>>152930966I hate Disney's live action remake slop, but this is especially dumb since the movie is too new for people to even be nostalgic about it. Also the Rock doesn't look the part and is too old to play Maui and why the hell did they replace Moana's 8/10 voice actress who looked almost exactly like her with a 6/10 who looks less like her? The Rock isn't too old to play an action hero at 52 but Cravalho is too old to play a princess at 25? So much for being feminist, Hollywood.
>>152930966STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOP
>>152930966At least they didn't cover her feet up
>>152931481What planet do you live on where Hollywood is feminist?
>>152930966>lets do an entire live action remake of an entire animated film thats only 10 years old and had another entire animated sequel film come out a mere two years agoAt least with the over LA shit it was for movies that were pushing a few decades old, at least. Jesus....
>>152930966Not even worth pirating.
>>152930966>”Grok, make a live action Maui from Moana with the Rock’s face”
>>152930966Lmao the rock is killing me with that wig.
>>152931743I've met a lot of Pacific Islander guys who think the Rock is a big poser.
Wow this looks like SHIT
>>152930966Wow AI is getting really good?
>>152931481>but this is especially dumb since the movie is too new for people to even be nostalgic about itMoana is one of the most streamed movies of all time, which is the reason they took the TV show and stitched it together as a movie at the last minute. This is gonna be a total piece of shit but it will do well regardless since whether we like it or not, audiences are also complicit into throwing billions to this slop.
>>152931637The planet where they say they're feminist at least a few times a day and make retarded girlboss movies who no one wants to watch to prove it? You can, of course, argue that they're lying for personal gain and don't really want equality of the sexes, and are just making the world a worse place for everyone, but that's also true for all feminists.
>>152931004I saw the Jungle Book one, and I enjoyed it. Mostly cause the live action version didn't just seem to be doing the animated story beat for beat, besides calling back on a couple of the popular songs.All the other live actions just seemed like the same thing but liveaction, and I am always surprised how nostalgia is enough to make a billion whether its good or bad.
I will never forgive the Academy for brainwashing the masses into having so little respect for the medium of animation. >>152931837He IS a big poser. Dude infamously has a clause in his contract stipulating that his characters aren't allowed to lose.
>I'm not a PrincessLmao what the HELL are Disney doing they literally advertise the Princess collection constantly. She is a Disney Princess and they make bank off it.
>specifically removes the part where Maui screams when he sees Moana for the 1st time because The Rock refuses to ever look uncool onscreenI seriously hate this guy. Im glad his films keep bombing.
>>152931890Not to defend this garbage but thats literally a line from the original movie followed by a joke of Maui laying out how she is in fact a princess because she sings and has animal companions.
>>152931906Oh kek shows how much I rememberFair enough lel
>>152931481They have to replace the actress because otherwise there's no point for the movie to exist. All her songs are going to sound the same as the original, the dialogue is going to come out the same, there'd genuinely be nothing to it. As for the live action, I don't watch this crap but as far as live actions go this one looks OK I guess. Not too uncanny valley and sort of just a recreation.Moana's a really good film, this looks like it'll just have some more of that post modern humour but otherwise be the same thing. So, as with all live actions, has no reason to exist
>>152931890>>152931906I tire of the self-depreciating meta commentary.
>>152931890That was in the original movie and it was dumb then.She's the daughter of a chief, it's more close enough.
>>152930966It's funny cuz it looks horrible and everyone will agree but it will make tons and tons of money because the average person is cattle
>>152930966I liked the original movie. This has the rock in a terrible wig and the CG looks like shit. Disney is creatively bankrupt and this exists purely because of The Rock being a shithead
It's sad how this shit looks so generic and poor when converted to Live Action. Goes from a charming island to just looking like any other live action Rock movie produced by another other studio. is this moana now or race to witch mountain
the only good post-2000 remake of a Disney movie was Cinderella. The rest have been varying levels of shit. (I don't count Cruella in this as it's an unnecessary prequel but weirdly fun)
>the tattoo maui is exactly the same as the cartoon version god damn this is some next level lazinessalso the rock looks old
>>152930966Very definition of slop.1B in the box office guaranteed and Disney will keep shitting these for at least another decade.
>Remake to a movie that had a sequel come out two years prior.So I take Moana 2 & 3 will be out in the same year?
I wonder is they'll make the sidetrack crab a real one, like Sebastian
>>152930966Momana
I know you think this isn't needed but have you considered pic related?
>the tattoo Maui and Te-Ka look basically the same>Tamatoa looks completely differentWhy
>>152931846This is just Moana with DLSS5 turned on?
>>152932667I'm still amazed someone thought people will be excited about a literal slop filter. There's no way they're this dumb, they just spent billions on AI and have to pretend to be optimistic in front of the investors.
>>152932069Funnily enough Cinderella is the only one I've really seen and I turned it off halfwaySo if that's the bar for quality, yikes
>>152931865Ah so you’re a schizo
>>152931327>That film was five years agoThe Moana remake was announced roughly five years ago.
>>152931952>there'd genuinely be nothing to itThat's where you're wrong, bucko.
>>152932660Tattoo Maui and Te-Ka fantasy creatures. Tamatoa crab. Crab real. Tamatoa gotta look real.
>>152932958Only in the eyes of retards who think feminism is about equality.
It looks slightly less bad than their other live-action slop but The Rock looks weird as Maui
>>152931743Why did they remove his nipples
WHY
>>152930966never seen a single moana movie
>>152936432The first one is good. It looks amazing and has good songs. It also feels a little empty because a big part of it is sailing and there's only two actual characters there. This sort of environment lends itself much better to long island hopping adventure shows that can take their time exploring and growing the crew, rather than movies. The only big encounter before the last boss is a singing crab (good song, fun character, is only in the movie for 10-15 minutes), Moana meeting Maui barely counts as an encounter (it's just a song) and the gremlin people are whatever and short, and the boss fight looks nice, but is kinda lame, since it's not even technically a villain nor something they can actually defeat. Still, overall at least a 7/10, definitely worth a watch.
The wig on the Rock is hilarious as fuck.
>>152931481>So much for being feminist, Hollywood.I wish I lived in a timeline where Hollywood had ever been feminist.
>>152931481>I hate Disney's live action remake slop, but this is especially dumb since the movie is too new for people to even be nostalgic about it.They're scraping the bottom of the barrel. There's no more old old movies to remake, but the gravy train is too good to give up on now, even though there's soon not even gonna be any IP's left to give the live action treatment. Every child born after 2010 is growing up with nothing original, just remakes of their parents or older siblings childhoods.
>>152930966>it's a The Rock movie starring The Rock playing The RockAlready seen it before, multiple times in fact.
>>152936801Pretty sure for Moana, The Rock was pushing Disney to make this because he wanted to play Maui before he got too old to do so.
>>152932069The Cinderella live-action was an "ok" movie. I mean, it wasn't bad, but didn't have anything noteworthy or memorable... which are common characteristics of the recent Disney live-actions movies. As >>152932945 said, the bar is set too low...
>>152936732Why though? Hollywood was at it's most fun when it was at it's most male-focused. And it sucks ass now that it's acting feminist (even if it really isn't). A truly feminist Hollywood would create the same caliber of utter shit it's doing now, just would treat women better.
>>152936774who cares, itll still make a billion dollarsgod i fucking genuinely despise mindless consoomers with a burning passion
>>152931952The rock is also playing his voice character
>>152931327>That film(whispers): "Black Adam">five years ago>current year: 2026>Black Adam's release: 2022
>>152939858Four years is close enough, anon. It's not like he was off by ten years or something.
>>152936826Also because his youngest is still really young, probably wants her to see him actually be Maui
>>152931846crab with homophobia in his eyes I like that but this is awful he doesnt even have those little clams in his chin that ends up looking like a scruffy facial hair
It might just be me, but didnt we already get a live action Moana? Did the timelines shift again?
>>152930966It feels like the original just came out
>>152940218It was announced ages ago.
America, stop drinking paint.
>>152931846>Somehow, TamatoaGamingDa returned.
What the fuck did we do to deserve this?
>>152930966For what purpose (don't say money)
>>152940331Unironically Lilo and Stich cracking a billion, despite being universally loathed. Had that shit flopped or even underperformed like the past few years of live action Disney, they probably would've canned it.So we're probably stuck with another few years of this shit. Hopefully Lilo and Stich was a genuine fluke and these continue the pattern of failure.
Wait, why are people hating this trailer? I haven't seen the other live action movies and I know their reputations, but this one looks pretty faithful to the original. If there's one Disney movie you could do mostly live-action it's probably Moana.
>>152940454The fact that it's so "faithful" is inherently the problem. This movie has no actual reason to exist when the original film its based on not only isn't that old, but the Live Action version has only marginally less CGI.
>>152936801it's funny these are like direct to dvd sequels except a million times worse
>live action>after the opening scenes on the island, the movie is just Dwayne Johnson and Catherine Lagaʻaia stood in front of a greenscreen interacting with animated charactersWhat is even the point?
>>152930966Moana’s too ugly. Will not watch. Not even kidding they needed to go darker. Cant believe im mad Disney whitewashed a WOC lol
Gotta love how adults whine makes kids movies they can’t enjoy
>>152940722I thought she was surprisingly cute, they've been dropping the ball on casting lately
Disney should just go back to 2D animation and start catering to adults. Kids do not watch this shit. Like at all. They watch TADC, skibidi, that A.I fruit show whatever the fuck its called and tiktoks.
>>152933447She's older than Moana is
>>152940675At least the DVD sequels gave 2D animators a job, and more often than not they gave enough of a shit to make something worthwhile. This is purely a money laundering scheme that occasionally makes money on top of that.
>>152940726Only the finest bot farms in India could conjure up a post this mangled.
>>152930966>CGI characters>CGI environment>CGI setsIts so fucking boring if an AI can make a better movie than you. By this point just don't bother if you're not investing in practical effects and filming in real locations.
>>152931743He's doing this pose lmao
>>152940390>Hopefully Lilo and Stich was a genuine flukeYou overestimate normies' taste. We justifibly shit on execs, but let's not pretend that audiences don't go gladly flocking into these turds.
It will always amaze me that these movies are such lazy slop yet outside of a few notable exceptions they rake in crash like crazy despite being so much worse than the originals
>>152933447well there you go, tits too big, can't have that in Hollywood
>>152933447cute tummy
