Has Spielberg deteriorated, or was he always a hack?

We'll never get market brand snozzcumbers now.
>>71651384
The movie looks boring, and has a stupid name. Not good to draw fans to it.
>>71651384
Nobody cares about a jew pedophile anymore surprise surprise.
it was a money laundering scheme
disney doesn't fail
I thought they already made a Doom movie?
>>71651384
The latter, i mean he tried to make the Nazis the bad huys in Indiana Jones for chist's sake.
who the fuck would want to watch a movie about a Matilda wannabe with a giant fucking Jew?
This literally appeals to almost no one
>>71651384
Think this would have made more?
BFJ
BIG FUCKING JUST
I think the bfg was one of Dahl's less popular books, it's not like chocolate factory or Matilda. Not enough people know about it and not enough kids know what it is either.
No, he just never changed.
The world around him did.
Nah he's just not good with kids movies.
And he's too tired to make action movies.
BOMBING
FOR
GOOD
maybe he'll have to make a good movie again
but is the movie any good?
>BFG isn't the most popular Dahl work
>Dahl hasn't been popular with kids for a long time
>Released in the middle of summer
>When Finding Dory is still in theaters (literally Disney competing against themselves)
was destined to fail, should have come out in the fall or winter.

Everything he's done is a kids movie

Schindler's List is my all time favorite kids movie. Saturday morning Schindler's List was always the best.

This.
I remember when I heard the plot for the book and that it was getting adapted into a movie, I said "this would have struggled to make a profit as a cheap direct-to-VHS movie for children in the early 90's".
BIG
FUCKING
GIANT
>>71653360
Munich is my favorite children's movie.
Can someone explain why not just title the Movie "Big Friendly Giant"
But nooooo Lets just call it fucking BFG

His last movie was an Academy award nominee for last year...

>BFG
>not a single Doom reference
???
>>71653341
I saw it last night as a double feature at a local drive in and they played Find Dory 2nd because they knew people would leave after if they showed it first.
>>71658443
The studio wanted to attract the many Doom fans.
Literally zero marketing.
Jew
If they had made this in the style of Zootopia and Frozen etc. it would have 95% on RT and it would be breaking records, despite the story being boring as fuck. Not only is the story boring but it looks boring visually too.
>>71658728
Loved this film and the atmosphere of the giant realm. I'm going to watch the Spielberg version but I think it can't achieve what the animation did.
I'm going to be happy even if Spielberg just has the balls to put in the same opening or the child eating scene.
>>71651384
My woman and I saw it last night. It was alright. Didn't blow my mind or anything but it deserves to do better than it is. We went to one of those theatres equipped with recliners now, it was pretty comfy cozying up together with the like only 4 other couples there though.
They should have made it look something like this instead of making it look like it's going to bomb hard at box office.
>>71651384
Nobody want to go see a movie about a crusty old pedo grandpa the has the word "fucking" in the title
>>71658903
Did her kids like it?
>>71658941
Doshin the Giant sequel, fucking when?
>>71651783
Underated. The gift that keeps on giving
I was disappointed in the lack of Rusty the Rooster or Gerome the Giraffe.

>>71651957
Well giants are scary. What kids want to go see this movie when the trailer looks like a horror movie.
