I don't want to say that people shouldn't see The Lion King, but don't see it and then turn around and complain about Disney's live-action remakes. Although I'll admit that I'm not so big on Disney's animated catalogue to begin with, so I'm not really the audience for these films to begin with. The Jungle Book does interest me a little though.

Honestly I'm beginning to appreciate The Last Jedi more. People clearly want to know what they're in for before seeing movies nowadays and that's a bit depressing.

You can see a movie and still think it shouldn't have been made. I like to have informed opinions; you can't have those without experience.

Marche couldn't even get enough support to get close to getting in this year. He's easily last place.

Marche was booted after he won and has yet to return. It's safe to say he may never at this point. This was the only year I saw any interest in him whatsoever.

To me it felt like a final from a different contest though, like a smaller one that can actually feature stuff in the finals that's been pushed by like one person hardcore (save my anime or something). It didn't feel much like a SMFFFC conclusion to me. Different, but since it didn't really benefit me, I can't say I preferred it.

I'm pretty sure Lulu steamrolls both of them. Marche is a bit of a special circumstances case guy; I don't really count him among the other finalists because he can't really be fairly compared with them. Last contest was a true mystery to me in terms of the finalists.

Zell and Yuffie are both respected characters with stats that are probably pretty good. I think Lopen is referring to just how bad Cid P. had to be to lose to Fang of all people, handily at that.

As you can tell, I have a definite preference for what I watch in theaters and it consists of animation and horror. Sometimes I'll see other stuff. Yes, there's no Endgame on that list. I never saw all the Marvel movies so I figured I'd just not bother with it. Until I can sit down and watch them all, I probably won't watch that one. I'm fine with seeing certain ones featuring heroes I'm up to date with though.

The Lion King got an applause in our theater when it was complete, and the scores for it have been great when you are polling the general audience, gaining an A rating from CinemaScore. The thing is, the movie is good. It's The Lion King, how can it not be good. But the big issue for me was that despite Disney doing a phenomenal job on the graphics and making everything so photo-realistic... therein lies the problem. The characters, real-life animals, are unable to convey very much emotion through their facial expressions. They were limited by keeping it "realistic", and as such many scenes that should have conveyed power felt flat. Honestly it's heartbreaking to me in a way, to see one of the greatest films of all time redone in a way that just wasn't... nearly as good. It was never going to be better, but it's hard to say this was even a fitting little tribute to the masterpiece, like I felt Aladdin was earlier this year.

I don't know. I mean, it's so hard to put into words.
