such a cheap cash grab from Disney haha. Sure, the cgi/animation or whatever looks impressive but its basically going to be a shot for shot remake of the '94 animated film right? lol will probably make 2 billion at the box office for Disney but good lord are they creatively bankrupt .
Disney is also remaking Dumbo , Aladdin , Mulan etc etc etc. I gotta had it to them though, they are basically printing money at this point.

I'll see it.

James Earl Jones? Yep, I'll be in line for this

No Jeremy Irons as Scar though. I'm sure the movie will still be great though. I love Lion King.

Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar can hold it down especially with his depiction as The Operative in Serenity/Firefly as the basis

This was my favorite Disney movie growing up along side toy story. Even if it is a money grab I think it's cool.

Disney needs to make money after their Star Wars shit has lost them so much.

They're taking out 'Be Prepared'. Disney and everyone else involved can get ****ed.

Why?

Both of my kids - who grew up with this movie on a nearly endless loop - were ripping this on Thanksgiving... "a shot for shot remake with cgi"

Total cash grab....will absolutely see.

Star Wars lost money? ROFL

This is who we are now. Something is successful, even iconic, they will re-boot or do a pre-quel/sequel. It's a easy decision for the VP of the entertainment companies to make. Very little downside to their careers compared to making money. The Star Wars one offs still made a BILLION $'s in profits for Disney. Thats just at the box office. Not counting merchanise, amusement parks money etc.

Not really, they bought Lucasfilm for $4 Billion. It's already broken even.
