So it might be great?Getting some real Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters vibes from this.
You know what should happen to all these children's characters released into public domain? Put them in Smash Bros.
Seriously, why not? Easy win for the concept of Smash Bros.

I'm not interested in shock value. It wears off.
They probably could have done a great heist movie instead.

Yeah I think it will be interesting as a piece of experimental film for this reason alone. What is the impact on the brand
👍
Also, I can't believe people are advocating for a multi-billion dollar conglomerate to have exclusive rights to a character instead of it going into the public domain...
I'm not. But the argument has some merit. Disney would treat this property with care and respect and likely make a film that's at least decent if not great. Instead they're less likely to do that since people can ruin the good name of the character with shit like this.
Again, I'm not saying I agree with that. Only that I do understand.
I think, as much as I loath the Doyle estate, they do have some sort of right idea in that well established works should, at the very least, for monetary gains, be at least subjected to some sort of scrutiny by the family. For example something like Little Red riding hood is as old as the hills, so open season, something like Pooh should have someone looking into how the character is being used for at least a while. For every Enola Holmes there's going to be shit like this, and there should be quality control for IP that has some history so that stuff like this movie doesn't get to make money.
I can understand this reasoning, but think this would just result in a win for Disney if their Pooh ends up being perceived as the quality version resulting in people knowing to watch those and avoiding the Uwe Bolle ones.
I just like knowing if Ari Aster goes fucking nuts and decides to try his hand at a Pooh film, he can do it however he wants.
I don't care what anyone says I still liked that film.Getting some real Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters vibes from this.
Just because you can doesn't mean you should.
I'll give it a watch. Might get a few decent murder scenes out of it. Glad that Pooh is back in the public domain anyway.
Thank you for reminding me that I had seen a gif of Chris's face photoshopped over Goku's as he's lobbing a spirit bomb.Hopefully it starts with this.
Surprised to see people suggesting public domain is a bad thing, it's not like Disney can't keep making their own high quality Winnie the Pooh stuff.
Most of the trash content we'll see will be risks taken only on low budgets and at worse will get a weird cult following, there's no real threat to Disney's incarnation of the character.

Dafuq is this shite? This is exactly why if a person, company or entity is still actively using their IP, it should not enter public domain.
Can't wait to see all the juicy stuff they'll do with Mickey Mouse and Super Mario 😈
