News Round Up 2018

[Mr. Mickey]

So I went on to Viral disney just to check it out because the optimist in me didn’t think it could be that bad, but this stuff is comedy gold. I mean on top of the Coco “rumor” there are so many more stupid articles that if you need a laugh, they’d be worth your time. Here is an example...

Yeah if we could avoid sharing their stuff here that would be great.

Catwalk bar has Club 33 doorbell installed

I know you're just reporting the news, but I simply don't have it in me to get excited/interested in something I'll never see.

I'm sure it'll be very themed and nice inside, but whatever.

doesn't nestlé sponsor shrek 4-D? do you think this is leading to the show being replaced like it was in hollywood, or will they just drop the sponsorship

I’m interested, but it’s funny you say that because that is exactly what my mom says lol

I was wondering if it was a generational thing, but my kids (11 and 13) have no interest either and have the same reason I do! Maybe it’s a matter of whether you grew up watching it... because my kids did as I did... dunno. Guess we’ll see eventually whether the world was clamoring for a second Mary Poppins!

My kids only want to see it for Lin Manuel Miranda. I remember playing the record album from the original again and again until my mom hid it from me.

I'm so happy for Coco. I think it was maybe my favourite movie of 2017 and not just favourite of Disney / Marvel / Star Wars / Pixar!

It didn't perform very well in the UK..

That's Disneys fault for releasing it over here so late. Want to say 3-4 months after the US? Makes no sense

I think they screwed up a few things with the release of this movie. I finally saw it this weekend and thought it was fantastic. I can't imagine people in the theater had to sit through the Frozen "short" before this - just because Disney apparently thought Coco wouldn't do very well without the Frozen boost.

I'm no Frozen-hater, it's one of our family's favorites, but that short was too long to put in front of a full-length movie - especially a movie that didn't even need a boost. Coco was no "Good Dinosaur."

 

[Gusey]

Also, Coco received very little advertising here in the UK which didn't help but everyone who I've known that went to see it loved it.
