      I wish Disney would stop over budgeting their movies and just make something like 100 million or less. They risk a flop with every movie because it ends up way too expensive. Probably because they’re always paying for big name actors, expensive CGI, and a huge marketing campaign.

    7:06 The story between Antz and A Bug's Life started when Jeffrey Katzenberg left Disney's animation studio to go and form Dreamworks after being denied a promotion at Disney and swearing revenge. While Katzenberg was still at Disney, he caught wind of a project called "Bugs" which eventually became "A Bug's Life". With the newly formed Dreamworks Animation, Katzenberg pushed out Antz as fast as possible to get it out before A Bug's Life, and succeeded. Even though it came out second, A Bug's Life performed much better than Antz in the box office and is definitely more fondly remembered by everyone I know.

    When Pirates of the Caribbean came out Johnny Depp was a huge box office draw, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightly were huge at that time too. There was presumably good word of mouth because it was an actually good movie, and the trailers made it look good. Meanwhile you've got a widely publicized troubled shoot, trailers that made the movie look dull and lifeless, Armie Hammer's not a big actor and Johnny Depp's star has fallen. I remember reading at the time that for The Lone Ranger to make a profit it would need to be the highest grossing western of all time, so that ridiculous budget made sure it was doomed to fail.

    Here after the latest Roland Emmerich masterpiece, Moonfall. I thought I had seen White House Down, and was reminded that no, actually I had seen Olympus Has Fallen. That the idea of crazy people storming the capital was, once upon a time, absurd, is comedy gold.
    I remember really enjoying the Lone Ranger when it came out. Fun action, but not overly sterilized in the way I expect Disney products to be these days. Maybe I wouldn't enjoy it as much through the lens of modern cynicism, but with the way certain other Disney franchises have been handled in recent times, it might be climbing higher on my list of enjoyable Disney franchises by default.

    Also, how can you not tap your feet to that 'Lone Ranger' theme at the end of the video! Classical music can be so rousing - I wish Hollywood remembered that more. I love some of the more naturalistic styles of movie scores that are popular now, but it seems like the only alternative besides naturalism is generic, bombastic action scoring, which is really forgetting just how good classical can be, as well as true themes like Lawrence of Arabia or Doctor Zhivago. It seems like Hollywood doesn't like putting in a traditional, memorable movie theme anymore, and for some movies that is a real shame.
