RDJ is Doctor Dolittle

[Mysteryman]

The movie has been moved from April 12 2019
To January 17 2020.
That might show confidence.
That is actually 3 days before Martin Luther King Day.

 

[Drizzle]

I think they might have moved to avoid too much conflict with Avengers 4. Not just in terms of box office, but also RDJ's availability to promote it.

I guess that’s the downside of working with marvel. You rake in the cash and fame but you don’t always have time to pursue other projects. Sounds like Pinocchio got put on hold for him too

 

[Zant]

I have a feeling RJD will soon be free

Ballooning $175 million budget, massive reshoots, multiple directors...yup, this seems to be going well.

The **** are they doing?

 

[samsnee]

Have they not learned to never work with animals? Reminds me of what happened with Bruce Almighty.

And the musical Doctor Doolittle with Rex Harrison which also had a ton of problems.

Yeah, that was the observation on Twitter that brought this article to my attention.

 

[terry78]

For that amount the animals should have been trained to literally speak.

 

[DarkKnight88]

They’re dealing with a ton of animals. The original went way over budget. Why is anyone surprised by that amount?

 

[samsnee]

They’re probably trying to figure out how they can put RDJ in the Iron Man suit without getting sued.

What happened with Bruce Almighty?

 

[DarkKnight88]

He means Evan Almighty. Tons of animals made the budget skyrocket.

Oh, ok.

Yeah sorry got those mixed up.

 

[scarlet-witch]

I didn't even realize they had filmed this already. I thought it was in pre-production.

Whoops.

[terry78]

That is quite a horrifying scenario in that poster, but they seem to actually be giving the animals facial expressions when they don't need them, when Lion King did the opposite lol

 

[Doctor Jones]

That's the face of having gone through multiple reshoots.

 

[KaijuDude1992]

I love RDJ, so hopefully this turns out being good. I actually didn't mind the Eddie Murphy flicks from back in the day, but that kind of humor hasn't aged well at all IMO just like his Nutty Professor flicks.

Assistant-The animals have gotten loose!

[dark_b]

so this is his first non marvel movie since Judge from 5 years ago. Why a talking animals movie?

 

[Silvermoth]

This...feels like the beginning of a steady decline for him. Hope not
