10 Upcoming Movie Blockbusters That Could Be Disasters
10. Alice Through The Looking Glass
Johnny Depp has been shamefully lazy the last few years, churning out sub-par Pirates Of The Caribbean sequels or Tim Burton movies for large cheques, and audiences have finally tired of him. His recent payday movies like Mordecai, The Lone Ranger and Transcendence have all flopped, and his decent turn in Black Mass has done little to restore faith in him. Instead of reinventing himself again hes going back for more punishment, so hell be reprising the role of The Mad Hatter in Alice Through The Looking Glass. The Tim Burton movie was - somehow - one of the most successful movies ever, so its a logical choice, but its doubtful anyone is really up for another round of Depp in white face paint and doing silly accents. The original was relentlessly glum and joyless too, so it wont even be a fun world to revisit. The only bright spot is that James Bobin (The Muppets, Flight Of The Conchords) is directing instead of Burton, so he might be able to breathe some life into it; hes got a hell of an uphill battle, though.
