Is this the first film that a studio basically had to be bullied into releasing instead of just burying for a tax break?
Essentially. WB shelved it. Then after the backlash, reversed their decision and tried selling to other studios and streamers but were apparently asking for about $115m to sell it. Eventually Ketchup Entertainment, who are releasing the film next year, bought it for $50m.
I hope it makes tons of money.
It’s such a hyped up film but I know it will be garbage
Cool poster, love how understated it is.
26..? Isn't the movie already complete?
Ketchup Entertainment only bought the film a couple of months ago. I guess they want time to build up a promotional campaign.
Seems like a lot of the hype will have died down. Hopefully they can build it back up.
I’m unnaturally excited to see this movie!
so more remake slop
How is this a remake?
how is it not?
What do you think it’s a remake of?
do you think they are debuting this almost 100year old cartoon here?
Just because some piece of media, isn't brand new, doesn't mean it's a remake... Is there evidence that they're going to reuse entire setups or recreate gags verbatim from the show?
Looney Tunes: Back in Action wasn't a remake, despite being a lot newer than the original source material.
there is
Here's the thing that's really pissing me off; I already know the ending. Back when this movie would, "never see the light of day," someone (the director I think, or maybe one of the leads) did an interview explaining how the movie was going to end. It sounded hilarious, but now that I know what the bit is, it's going to be significantly less funny.
That’s brilliant.
