I'd definitely go and see the show...  Thumbs:

But I'm not sure I'd watch the film of the show - why not just watch the original film...?  rubschin:

We do a lot of these live events including concerts, theatre, operatic and ballet. We recently had the anniversary production of Les Miserables and if memory serves the anniversary production of Jesus Christ Superstar is in a week or so's time. It's a way for people who normally wouldn't be able to go and see the shows to get the experience. Plus it brings in more money for the theatre companies.

So the UK premiere has been cancelled and now it seems that journalists are banned from the Hollywood one. Something tells me Disney already knows this is going to be an absolute disaster. I can't wait for the shareholders meeting next month  eveilgrin:

Just had a look at the advanced bookings for Snow White for the opening weekend. There are 17 screenings over Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Usually when we have the live action remakes we'd already have at least a couple of hundred advanced bookings with that many shows.

Currently we have less than 50 for the entire weekend. Something tells me that I've been optimistic on how it's going to perform and apocalyptic isn't even going to come close to the imminent disaster.   noooo:

The reviews actually aren't that bad, not great but I've seen much much worse.

Well I got some reviews from a few of tonight's customers. Some of the comments have bordered on art.

"Who supplied the costumes, Temu?"

"where did they get the dwarf models? An unreleased PS3 game?"

"Someone needs to go back to school and learn what continuity means"

"Character development? I flushed better writing down the toilet this morning"

"Disney would have been better off blowing $400m on the tables at Vegas, they'd probably lose less money"

"What the hell were the writing team smoking and where can I get some?"

And my absolute favourite which cracked me up (yes I am a bad person  redface: )

"Fucking hell, that bombed so hard the Enola Gay is fucking jealous"

Bit of a disturbing review tonight.

"I'd rather have a prostate exam from Captain Hook then endure that pile of shite again"

Not sure if he meant the pirate or Abu Hamza and I wasn't going to ask. Either way it's a brain bleach moment.  eeek:

And just to prove how perverse audiences are:  https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c74ke77v7rvo

'Disney's live-action version of the classic fairy tale Snow White has topped the North American box office chart despite a slew of underwhelming reviews.

The movie has taken an estimated $87.3m (£67.5m) globally during its opening weekend, according to Box Office Mojo, external. Almost half of that figure came from North America.'
Well, whatever, nevermind
