JP it’s not Halloween yet no need to post pictures to frighten me
 
I just wish they had better black princess movies to adapt into live action.

But since they don't I'm not opposed to a black Ariel.

It will be a rare blockbuster with a black girl protagonist for black little girls to identify with.

It's ridiculously rare.
there are a million black women in the music industry that are mega successful.... too bad most of them aren't role models at all..

no pun intended, but I hope a tide is turned with this movie and changes direction of of the perception of what it means to be black and female. right now it just seems so cliche and negative out there...
 
Bummer we’ve gotta wait until 2023.

Are you serious?

So artists like Beyonce, Mary J Blige, Janet Jackson and Mariah Carey, all of whom you can trace their influence on a non-black counterpart today are not role models and are negative and cliche?

So I guess Madonna, Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga and the other countless non-black women pop stars who ****e themselves out for fame are sterling examples of virtue?

Some of you people on here are funny.

To be fair most of those black women are from a bygone era.

Right now Megan tha Stallion and Nicki Minaj are way more popular.

You must not keep up because Nicki is barely relevant right now and Beyonce is still considered Queen Bee.

Laughable... you walk into any school, elementary school and you see young girls looking up to Doja Cat, all the WAP nonsense - that's what they hear in the car on the way to school, that's what they wanna sing in the talent shows and at recess.

Ofcourse there are examples of fine women, but you miss the point... totally... for a young black girl, the bar should not just be set at Janet Jackson, getting her boob out at super bowl, Mariah Carey who does anything now to stay relevant....

There are many dignified, hard working women of colour.. there are singers out there that deserve the attention of young black girls... and if this movie inspires more young girls to sing, to get into acting, musicals and performing, without mentioning their WAP, that's a positive for me.

you do have a point. Young black girls need more hero type characters in media . I can name a few. But young black women do look up to Meg a lot.

Generalizations and stereotypes.

I am astounded by the ignorance. Any black person on here who agrees with any of this rhetoric, shame on you.

He thinks Cardi B and Megan are too popular among young black girls.

You think young black girls still look up to Janet Jackson and Mary J Blige.

I don't think it's shameful to agree with him. You're taking this disagreement too personally to be honest.

Nah. I’m good. I think black girls shouldn’t look up to them either. Not a stereotype at all. They are hot right now. Not blaming them tho.
 
Aladdin, which was released in May 2019, already got a poster and teaser trailer around October.
Wonder when we’ll see the first footage of this.
Don’t expect it on Friday, since the focus might be on projects that go directly onto Disney plus

This is May… 2023!

Probably nothing till October next year.
 
I think it’s hard to film movies, even in cgi, set underwater because you have to get the effects right. So expect it later rather than sooner
 
They should‘ve known earlier
 
First bit might be for a new song at the end after Ariel gets her voice back. No f-ing WAY it's during prior to that. Second I 100% called. It's Lin-Manuel Miranda so we'd probably get at least one in there. I think it'd be making Under the Sea sound a little more jazzy like "What Did I Miss?" from Hamilton, and I'm DOWN for that!
