Anytime, sis. 

We have a term in Croatia: "ne bacaj bisere pred svinje"  which translates as "Don't throw pearls in front of the pigs".  ❤

I'll try to remember that one. In English at least.

I stan Bey but her acting isn't her strong suit. I'm glad she's getting praise but I'm sure it's not a flawless performance. 

 

Actually why did they even make this remake :coffee:

It’s in Walt’s will for the movies to be remade after however many years

I haven't seen the movie so I can't judge but from what I'm seeing it feels like people's expectations were waaay too high because one, it's a huge movie and two, all the big names involved just add to that. So I guess people went in there expecting BEYONCÉ and they got normal voice-over work? :shrug:

It was doomed from the start tbh :smh: Lion King is such a treasure, any director would be crucified (by the public) if they messed with the story, the characters or the music. So that basically forces you to remake it shot by shot and that's now exactly what Favreau is being criticized for  :emma:

Disney won't care though. Audiences will eat it up like they do almost every other useless remake.

He did the same for the jungle book, and that movie isn’t a treasure on the level of The Lion King. He just doesn’t know how to do it in any other way. It’s a ****ing remastered version lowering the quality and the fantasy of hand drawings with expressions, colors, etc etc. Just watch the first trailer: original movie 50 birds flying over a gold, purple, orange, shiny river... trailer: 5 black birds over a grey landscape. A mess. We knew this would happen from day one... this man has to be stopped. 

For great remakes I’d say Alice in wonderland is a good example, new imagery, storyline, respecting characters and adding new ones, maintaining the fantasy... Also Maleficient, for me, but that’s a polarized one.

99% of the criticism is about the screenplay and the directing though, but nice try.

Stan culture has gotten so predictable and boring with so much hate directed at other artists.

I still do not like Spirit tho. :trollga:

I'm talking about 100+ reviews, you seriously think mentioning four is sufficient to prove me wrong? :rip: I already addressed these reviews above, twice :smh: I also posted negative reviews about Beyoncé in my OP so I'm still not fathoming what you guys think you're achieving by posting this to me except showcasing your spectacular lack of ability to read through one post before commenting.

The overall criticism is absolutely directed towards the screenplay and the directing. All you need to do is get your ass off ATRL and start reading the reviews themselves :madge: Don't be so ****ing lazy omg.

Her voice acting reminds me of her cringe scene in Telephone that is always :awkney:

" I knew you'd take all my honey, you selfish mother****er" :lmao:

Who the **** cares about Beyoncé fans outside of pop forums though :rip: Why does this have to be such a passionate conversation topic on GagaDaily :toofunny:

Some of us just want to talk about the movie without the unnecessary fan war layer. Idgaf about Beyoncé, but I also don't want people to spread false information.
