This is basically the most realistic-looking animated movie ever made

Technical masturbation and nothing more. Yawn.

It also looks bland and generic

Live action movie have been using lifelike CG for years now, so it's not that interesting.

If that's true CGI realism still has a long way to go.

Not that Lion King should look realistic eitherway.

Why is it called a “live-action” adaptation if everything is animated and they’re not making actual animals look like they’re talking by giving them peanut butter?

Because people will eat every piece of shit Disney churns out. Not even joking, it's literally true

>animated movie
>realistic-looking

whats the point then?

Disney has never advertised it as live-action. Retarded bloggers gave it that label and it stuck.

It’s easier to tame a cartoonist than a lion

I wonder if this will be nominated for Best Animated Feature or Best Visual Effects.

So that they don't have to arrange a real wildebeest stampede and throw a lion cub into it. And they don't have to stage scenes where a lion, a warthog and a meerkat appear in the same scene together without trying to kill one another. And so on; think of pretty much any scene in the movie, and imagine filming it with real animals. It would be an absolute pain to train the animals for those scenes, or trying to keep them safe and unharmed during the filming.

Because it's photorealistic to the point where people aren't considering it animation anymore.

How does will Smith being painted blue and rising out of a lamp while a magic carpet hangs out with a monkey taking orders from some Jew street kid lying his way into the throne sound anything close to realistic

Because loins are really hard to direct

Actually it's this. Animation has never improved on it.

How many animal species can you train to recreate the entire Lion King movie shot for shot for a “live action” movie?

That’s why

Pretty sure we've tamed all of them

Yeah user, why they didn't brought a shit tons of savannah wild life inside a soundstage, fucking lazy assholes.

A little of topic but it is interesting to see how they made the mgm logo here.
Other than that, while I'm not to really interested in the remake, I am impressed in how realistic the lions look.

/thread

There's a scene with humans in it and I think the backgrounds are real life too, so that's why they get away with calling it live-action.

Maybe the point is that they shouldn't have made this fucking movie at all and instead should have poured all their time,resourced and budget into something actually original instead

Friendly reminder OP is a hypocrite and will be saying this movie looks like shit 5 years from now.

Like a Pocahontas live action remake?

Song of the South or bust

Does it beat out Avatar?

Song of the South is already mostly live-action...

>giving lions peanut butter

Make the live action parts animated and the animated parts live action
