Why Did These Animated Movies Get Canceled??

[@ladypool1404]

Not only Coyote VS Acme was finished BUT it also has positives reviews from everyone; actors, animators, casual viewers etc. The plot seams really fun and interresting, we never saw that before in a looney tunes movie. The worst part of this situation? The guy who DARES cancelled it, David Zlaslav, never saw the film. His decision makes no sense. How can you tell a movie is good or bad if you never watch him? He has no respect for animation, all the peoples who worked on the movie and Looney tunes fans. Shame on him 😠😤

[@disneyboy3030]

Last I heard it seems that they are still trying to find a way to release it. So it seems more in limbo then anything else.

[@dylanhudec979]

I still can’t believe they canceled the plants vs zombies movie and the Popeyes movie just for the emoji movie

[@bighand1530]

I wouldn’t blame it all on the Emoji Movie.

[@SpelfiN]

Popeye wasnt canceled because of the emoji movie, it has nothing to do with it.

[@gaothhermesk1289]

@@SpelfiN wrong, was cancelled msotly due creative differences, apparently Sony wanted Gendy to "modernize" popeye, but he stayed firm with the classic approach so that took struggles and ended up shutting down the movie

[@danielramos6325]

I know right

[@Richard-3874]

Sony’s Popeye was never canceled for to make the emoji movie, it was canceled because Sony just didn’t like Genndy’s vision for the movie and they wanted it to be more modern and hip for the young kids.

This always happens due to certain circumstances the frustrating part is when the movie is practically finished and then cancelled and never released to the public which is frustrating to the creators and the audience because neither get a happy ending it's stupid tbh

The silver lining with Larrkins cancellation is that the same team was able to go to Netflix and create Back to the Outback. Really underrated gem!

[@silashurd3597]

I watched it. And I was worried that it was be another dumb Madagascar rip off, but no. It was actually pretty fun. You sympathized with those animals wanting to leave cuz no one really wanted to see them. And even bringing along that jerky koala was funny showing that cute animals aren’t always nice. And the villain is hilarious as well being a wannabe Steve Irwin and making it his life goal to destroy these animals. Also, the song that plays, “beautiful ugly” by Tim Minchin is incredibly catchy

[@jam9852]

Its because these good and inspiring movies were somewhat original as well as Creative & probably expensive to make modern Hollywood doesn't take risks so we get crap 9 times out of 10. Losing Gigantic that animated Popeye movie and the last DreamWorks movie shown is honestly a depressing crime so many good movies get cancelled for crap like the Emoji movie minions or live action Disney remakes.

[@bighand1530]

Gigantic would have been a giant stand out(no pun intended).

Even with Sony Animation removing beyond the SpiderVerse from becoming lost media they instead announced an open season tv show called open season call of nature to revive the open season franchise for no other reason but didn’t Sony animation just learn their lessons from last time after they made hotel Transylvania 4?

I'm glad that the movie about space cats with spongebob was canceled, it's crazy, but I want to see Lego movie 3 where Emmet meets Robin from Lego Batman and Lloyd from Lego Ninjago.

[@gaothhermesk1289]

One Disney film you forgot to mention was Wild Life wich had a pretty intriguing concept due it took place into the night life in big citties, you know what i mean, even had a really short animation demo wich shows one of the main characters and the city it would take place and, gonna be honest, it was really stunnishing looking visuals considering it was the beginings or cgi animation specially with how they used a "Pop Art" visual style to make the color saturated and plane textures look more fitting with the limitations of the time

[@hamishstewart5324]

Another cancelled movie I think looked pretty interesting is the Legend of Tembo. It’s about an African elephant named Tembo who, as a calf, is taken from his home and shipped off to India and in order to get home joins the army as a war elephant. The movie was supposed to be directed by Aaron Blaine and Chuck Williams and was gonna be produced by a studio called Digital Domain, but they unfortunately went bankrupt in 2012. Fortunately, some of the people who worked on the film uploaded a bunch of the story boards to KZbin and other websites, basically showing most of the plot, give or take a few changes, and I honestly think it could’ve been a great movie.

[@Princess_-gp3ep]

I can’t believe Nimona was briefly cancelled before Netflix and Annapurna pictures saved the movie and got universal acclaim. It’s a shame it got a very limited release in theaters prior to the streaming release and didn’t get enough awards. (I’m looking at you, the Oscars!)

[@amytheshark20]

You know, hearing about cancelled movies makes me more grateful for the movies we do get. Especially the ones that are great! Some movies might be luckier than others, but for others to manage to release and become successful and widely loved, sometimes you might think “what if this got cancelled”? But you don’t have to worry about it because it’s already there. If that makes any sense.

No joke, he was the sole reason I wanted to play the second game.
