Someone is probably betting on a Springtime for Hitler scenario.

Too much money on set designs

[Seductivpancakes]

Tony Stark died and was reborn as Dr. Dolittle, a vet who can speak to animals A new Isekai anime coming soon.

 

[Randomly Generated]

it's easy money, and he might have thought it'd be fun to do. Dude is set both money and legacy wise.

You'd think he would stop looking for easy money at some point.

 

[kyle mechlachlan]

The kind of project to take when you just wanna coast.

[show me your skeleton]

can't believe the untitled goose is getting in to movies already

 

[Rendering...]

I like RDJ but the poster doesn't fill me with confidence.

Unexpected turn for Iron Man

Just like the original Doctor Dolittle, which infamously blew over budget with a difficult film shoot, then bombed on release.

Click to shrink...

what?


70 million budget against a 300 million box office and several sequels, how is that a bomb?

 

[Whitemex]

Give us a Due Date sequel dammit

You managed to look up the 1998 film's gross without noticing it is not the original film?
Dr. Dolittle from 1967 had a 17 million dollar budget, equal to 130 million today, and made 9 million. It was a notorious bomb, after a very difficult and troubled production (mainly because having hundreds of animals for your film shoot is a terrible idea).

 

[subpar spatula]

$1000 says he acts just like he does in every other RDJ movie.

Any takers?

 

[VaporSnake]

I feel embarrassed just looking at that poster.

 

[Deleted member 51691]

Tom Holland really needs to slow down. Dude made like 4 movies this year: Dolittle, Onward, that pigeon movie and Spiderman lol

Click to shrink...

I'm actually kind of mad that Blue Sky turned Will Smith into a spy pigeon. I wanted a family-friendly animated good old spy movie, not another human-transforming-to-animal movie.

 

[Ehoavash]

Budget $175 million, In January?? And Downey's wife is the Producer...hmm


...is this where all that marvel money went cause who the hell at Universal have the budget for this lol

 

[Van Bur3n]

What a fall from grace for RDJ, it's all downhill from here. RIP to a real one, love you whatever thousand or something.

The first trailer for that movie was weird for that, first part was looking interesting until the pidgeon appeared...
Then everybody knew it was going to be that kind of movie.

 

[Deleted member 9135]

Looks like a poster of a man being surrounded by Marvel fanbase.

 

[ZeoVGM]

Guys, it's a kid's movie.

Good lord.

[Bitanator]

When will Hollywood realize the only talking animal movies that were good were Babe and Babe 2: Pig in the City

Yeah, the most recent trailer for that movie deflated my hype quite a bit.

Anyway, back on topic. I have a soft spot for the Dolittle movies. I'd like this reboot to succeed, but I have little faith.

That's not the original Dr. Doolittle.

 

[Strangelove_77]

The question "why wouldn't he do this?"
Seems like an easy paycheck that might actually be entertaining to be in.

 

[Strangelove_77]

By the way, how are his Sherlock Holmes movies? Are they worth watching? I'm not expecting high art just entertainment.

 

[Slime]

Where does this fit in the Dark Universe timeline

 

[Mandos]

Could be fun, the first reboot with Eddie Murphy was fun. Will be interesting to see where this goes

The first one is fun enough. Didn't like the second.

No.

 

[Ploid 6.0]

I'm surprised they are doing a remake already, though it has been 20 years since Eddie Murphy's Dolittle 1 I see.

 

[NHarmonic.]

Why is the fox from narnia here?

 

[Tathanen]

I imagine him basically playing his Sherlock Holmes exactly in this.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Somebody get the license plate number on that poster. I have just been violated.

 

[Lundren]

Eh, sometimes actors want to make a movie that little kids will enjoy. That's not inherently a bad thing.

Everything should be made for me!

And now that he's finished with those movies he's making films little kids won't enjoy.

 

[Rabbit]

The poster is not doing much for me. I am interested in how the trailer will be though.

 

[RecRoulette]

John Cena
Yoshi
A Polar Bear.

Amazing

oh man I hope we get a remake of this scene

Click to shrink...

Why remake this movie at all if not for this scene?

 

[Brinbe]

how much he getting paid? whatever it is isn't enough

especially if he's gonna be kissing on seals and shit

They're good films, just very much "Guy Ritchie films" for all the positive and negatives that come with it. So if you like hyper-stylised and hyper energetic actions movies they are the thing for you.

Just don't expect too much in the way of a proper detective story, every clue or mystery is solved via some sort of action scene.

 

[K' Dash]

All I want is a third Sherlock, RDJ. Why you makin me wait so long.

Click to shrink...

Isn't it already confirmed?

I've been waiting for that movie for YEARS.
