Box Office: ‘The Lion King’ Becomes Fourth Disney Film to Cross $1 Billion in 2019

 

Disney's 4th of the year, with 3 more on the way. Absolutely crazy!

Lion king was not liked much and still made so much..  Marvel name is more than enough to sell a movie today

What has Marvel got to do with Lion King?

 

Did you guys not see the post credits scene where Nick Fury recruits Simba and Nala into the Avengers? 

Lion King is a phase-4 MCU movie.

 

Even Mowgli is going to be in the next Avengers.

Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw reviews out

 

 

RT- 70% fresh

Average Rating: 6.11/10

  • It's a movie that does what it needs to do but rarely does more than that, like a replacement part that fits just where it's supposed to go.
  • Whatever this is, it's not a movie - it's a product more deserving of a road test than a review. Johnson and Statham keep the action and laughs spinning. The problem is they keep repeating them - stunt, banter, stunt - until they wear out their welcome.
  • It's low-rent James Bond, edging toward the silly sci-fi of the Marvel universe.
  • It turns out that whittling the series' rapidly bulging dramatis personae down to two guys who hate each other can be strangely liberating.
  • The staging of loud, destructive, effects-laden set pieces seems to elude the director's grasp-and, unfortunately, that's what Fast & Furious movies are all about.
  • "Hobbs & Shaw" does all the usual things, but it does them in unusual ways. And it stays funny.
  • For as ludicrous as some of the film's plot becomes, family is always at the heart of the spin-off.
  • As grand as the action is though, not to mention the film's penchant for clever sight gags and alarming cameos, it's the cast's combined charisma and willingness to surrender to the lunacy that ultimately prevails.
  • The movie stops the story dead with a couple of big-name comic cameos (who will remain unnamed) that go on uncomfortably long.
  • Despite wearing out its welcome, Hobbs & Shaw succeeds on the back of some great action and a winning cast.
  • Hobbs and Shaw is good summer time fun if you know what you are walking into.

Exactly like I expected. A good summer blockbuster!

According to Wiki it's now $200million mostly due CGI to make them younger. 

 

No wonder it is on Netflix. No studio will be stupif enough to spend that much on a movie like this.

By February 2017, Paramount Pictures had dropped domestic distribution rights for The Irishman following the announcement that Fabrica de Cine would not be financing the film due to its climbing budget. Netflix then bought the film for $105 million and agreed to finance the film's $125 million budget with a release date set for October 2019.

 

Industrial Light & Magic and VFX Supervisor Rob Legato are handling the effects for the film.[35] By March 5, 2018, it was also reported the film's budget had ballooned from $125 million to $140 million, due in large part to the visual effects needed to make De Niro, Pesci, and Pacino appear up to 30 years younger at various points throughout the film.[36] By August of that year, the cost had risen to as much as $175 million, and by the time post-production had wrapped it reached $200 million, making it the most expensive film of Scorsese's career.
