Disney has spent more than $ 30 million on a transverse offer that could never happen

There are a few names that make Disney historians raise their eyebrows like Disenton. Behind House House Live Packet to the House from 1990 to 2018, Disneytoon was assigned to address sequences, pre -explosions, and explosions to the largest animation of its mother company, quickly, with the same importance. Cheap As much as possible. The results were not exactly the magic of Disney, but you cannot blame studio artists for their power. In the end, they made 47 (!) Movement movies in three decades, and Halla: They helped give us the hot father (John Reese Davis) from “Aladdin and the King of Thieves” and Classic worship generations, which is “idiot movie”, “ So some respect must appear to them.

This leads us to the specific topic of the day: “Aircraft”. It is directed by Klay Hall (“Tinker Bell and The Lost Treasure”), it is a strange duck between Disenton’s product, as it is a theatrical version based on the “Cars” privilege of Pixar. It was originally assumed that the 2013 movie will go directly to DVD and Blu-Ray (such as most Disneytoon nicknames), but this changed after Disney realized her commercial capacity. What’s more, the concept of “aircraft” himself was cooked by the former President of Pixar, who received a “story” of credit for his efforts. (It is clear that this was before it fell from grace. More on that later.)

Not only that, but “aircraft” was also part of the larger Lassterer vision of a series of separate displays that centered around the various stereoscopic vehicles that are found in the “CARS” angles. In fact, the film already opens with a banner announcing that it is happening in the “auto world” “From the world of John Wake”.

While “cars” movies have a reputation (not completely unjustified) because they are not prepared to narrate, “aircraft” films keep things simpler. “Planes”, for example, is a sports story by books on a vulnerable in the form of dusty Cophopper, and Duster crop crop and world famous global contestant expressed by Dane Cook. Likewise, the “Fire & Resue” supplement for 2014 (which witnessed “monsters” in the future “in the” bodies “Bubs Ganway replaces a hall at the head) Dusty forces to grow a little by launching to become a firefighter in the land of the wilderness.

For the largest part, “aircraft” movies are not harmful (dependent on some non -sensitive stereotypes); They do not have much of what happens under – Hood – Hood compared to the best Disney and Boxar production. This is doubled for their animation, which is significantly developed and detailed than Pixar’s less than the same era.

Not that truly Fine to compare it; Both “aircraft” and “Fire & Rescue” cost $ 50 million each at a time when Pixar’s features came regularly at $ 200 million. Moreover, all that was important to the mouse house was that they were very profitable, as they got nearly $ 400 million at the box office combined. This made the green lighting “Aircraft 3” with a similar budget an easy decision … and more shocking when the film was delayed indefinitely in March 2018, and on this point Disney has already invested $ 34.7 million in making it (for each Forbes).

It was developed under the title “Working Space”, “Planes” Therquel had sent two planes – including, one assuming, dusty – “to the edge of the atmosphere.” Instead, (sighed, here we go again) crashed and burned while taking off. So, how did everything go wrong?

Three months after the “Planes 3” and other developing cars, “the show was canceled (Including the strange “metro”.Dzniton closed its doors forever. This was partially the result of the appearance of the broadcast and the shrinking Media Media market, which was still the main reason behind the presence of the studio. Disney’s decision to try to compete with Netflix was directly by launching Disney+ more or less than the final nail of the coffin for studio (which made the company millions in VHS, DVD and Blu-Ray previously).

It is possible, at the time, that you spend $ 35 million on “Planes 3” that may seem to be a billion dollar giant change, which is why he did not bother to finish the movie. (It is expected that the sequel will cost much more than its predecessors, so it should be somewhat far away.) This is on the assumption of the mouse house David Zaslav did not withdraw And the use of “aircraft 3” as a tax writing. The company declined to comment on the Forbes report, so read in what you want.

Nor should we forget that Lasster took a extended vacation from Disney and Pixar after the allegations of sexual harassment against him were raised in 2017, which led to his removal forever the following year. Given that the “planes” and the rest of the “cars”-were one of the daughters of his ideas, it is likely that it was not a coincidence that the entire endeavor was abandoned almost at the same time.

Regardless, it was the end of the “aircraft” films, but also Disenton in general. Again, you have to feel studio employees; Say what you want in their art, but these animation who work hard have spent decades to do exactly what they were appointed for them, just to discover themselves lucky for reasons beyond their will. Do Disneytoon deserves itself better? I will let you be a judge.
