we didn’t need an Angry Birds movie then
and we certainly don’t need another one
now hey guys its Phoebe from WatchMojo
and today we’re looking at the 10
upcoming comedy movies that might suck
for this list we’re looking at comedies
yet to be released as of January 2019
but which for various reasons who a
suspect will fail with critics at the
box office or with audiences we hope
we’re wrong and that these comedies wind
up as pleasant cinematic surprises but
we have our doubts number 10 the hustle
if I lose I’ll leave if I win you leave
comedy remakes don’t exactly inspire
confidence and remakes of remakes even
less so the hustle is a female centered
remake of the 1988 film dirty rotten
scoundrels which itself was based on
1964 s bedtime story and the premise
possibly have anything left to offer
making such familiar material new again
is a daunting challenge admittedly it’s
hard to argue with the cast stars rebel
Wilson and Anne Hathaway have both
proved themselves in past comedic roles
but writer Jack Schafer’s only other
comedy feature timer received lukewarm
reviews and the hustle will be director
Chris Addison’s feature debut here’s
hoping that his TV experience translates
over to the big screen number nine The
Secret Life of pets – I got it this is
nice
the first film in this franchise made a
whopping eight hundred and seventy five
point five million dollars when it was
released in 2016 considering it did so
on a budget of just 75 million dollars a
sequel was guaranteed here’s the thing
though at 73 percent on Rotten Tomatoes
it was mostly well received but it
didn’t have the same sort of cultural
impact of say Zootopia and some
reviewers criticized it as being
derivative of Toy Story complicating
things for the sequel is the fact that
the original film starred louis c.k who
in the wake of the me2 movement has seen
his role go to Patton Oswalt Oswalt is a
solid replacement but sequels with a
nobody you tricked me
number eight ugly dolls remember when we
only got a couple of CGI family films a
year nowadays the market is far more
saturated and significantly less
consistent in terms of quality ugly
dolls is STX entertainments first foray
into animated feature films under the
STX family banner so that’s already a
gamble but when you take a look at the
cast the outlook gets worse while the
film is a musical comedy we’re still
concerned about the fact that the cast
is made up of celebrities who are
singers first and actors second Kelly
Clarkson and Nick Jonas taking the lead
roles supported by Pitbull Wang Liam and
Blake Shelton among others the music
will no doubt be great but what about
the comedy what’s perfection don’t know
let’s go say hi hello
number seven men in black international
time for lunch oh thank you hungry it’s
9:30 Tuesday’s taco day Chris Hemsworth
and Tessa Thompson have already proven
themselves to have solid chemistry as
seen in Thor Ragnarok we have no doubt
that they have what it takes to lead an
action comedy together we’re just not
sure about this action comedy Will Smith
and Tommy Lee Jones leave behind big
shoes to fill and despite an uneven
middle chapter the original trilogy
ended strong with help from Josh Brolin
in the third installment that we’re
always excited to return to the world of
MIB the first trailer for this spin-off
film felt uneven the tone felt like men
in black but something special was
missing
it was also a bit short on the trademark
MIB humor should be a big red button
number six spies in disguise
hello agent sterling let the beat drop
Will Smith and Tom Holland those are two
solid names to have attached to your
film in the right movie that’s a leading
cast with a cross generation of Peel
that translates to pure box-office gold
especially with Karen Gillan and rashida
Jones in tow except this doesn’t feel
like the sure thing it should be it
Smith’s last leading role in an animated
feature was 2004 s lackluster Shark Tale
the trailer starts off strong looking
like a shot at animated redemption for
Smith a secret agent Lance sterling
Benny turns into a pigeon that’s a
seriously wacky turn for the film to
take it might very well pay off but it
feels like a big risk look at me look at
you I can’t not look at you Walter I can
see my butt and your face at the same
time
number five super intelligence Melissa
McCarthy certainly has come a long way
from her days on Gilmore Girls
where she played fan favorite characters
Sookie since then she started in a
number of successful films including spy
bridesmaids and the heat she’s quickly
established herself as one of the
foremost actors in big-screen comedy
unfortunately every time that she’s
partnered up with husband and director
Ben Falcone the results have
disappointed Tammy the boss and life of
the party were all co-written and
directed by Falcone and respectively
earned at 24 percent twenty-two percent
and 37 percent on Rotten Tomatoes their
collaborative batting average does not
inspire confidence really is that what
this is about number four the Angry
Birds movie – it’s such a shame when you
create something and someone just
destroys it we get that green-lighting
sequels is ultimately a numbers game but
we wish the financially successful
movies would forego a follow-up when
critical and audience reactions are so
decidedly mixed the Angry Birds movie
was by no means 2016 s worst film but
cinema goers were pretty ambivalent it
made 350 million dollars against a
budget of 73 million
a profit based largely on its name
recognition but the mediocre film didn’t
leave audiences wanting more
most people likely forgot about the
movie by the time they got home the
sequel feels like a financial decision
plain and simple and so we can’t help
but assume that the follow up will be
another middling cinematic offer it’s
charming up to a point and now it’s just
sad number three isn’t it romantic
all those movies Eliza – terrible pop
songs this 2019 satirical comedy comes
armed with a strong cast including rebel
Wilson Liam Hemsworth Adam Devine and
Priyanka Chopra it follows a woman who
suddenly finds herself living in a world
that follows the rules of romantic
comedies fun premise right unfortunately
it also feels like a bit of a retread of
2018 I feel pretty in that the leading
lady is a quote-unquote unconventional
one who starts seeing the world
differently after hitting her head the
trailer also feels a little short on
laughs now satire doesn’t always
translate well to trailers and the
film’s strengths may lie in its
long-form parody of genre cliches but
this first look has us worried number
two a Medea family funeral gababa say
yay though she walked in the ballet with
the Shadle of Little Red Riding Hood in
the three bears whatever could lead us
to believe that this Medea film will be
a bad one well today tone Lea one such
film has actually gotten decent reviews
from critics and it was one of the few
installments that kept madea’s
involvement to a minimum
after so many Madea films there’s no
reason to believe that the humor in this
allegedly final installment will be any
stronger or that the plot will be any
less predictable and silly be that as it
may the thing about Tyler Perry’s
totally inconsistent but long-running
franchise is that it has its dedicated
core fan base and income release day
they’re sure to show up and make the
film a financial success I’m a real fuck
I’m an old G M ad before we unveil our
top pick here are a couple of
it’s just it’s the first time I’ve ever
seen you look ugly
let me get three shots of whiskey with a
come to chase called zero though
watching my feet please sir may I have
some more advice you want some advice
here’s the rocks advice tips your mouth
thanks Wayne number one Charlie’s Angels
we’re gonna embrace everything that came
before and we’re gonna keep on keepin on
Elizabeth Banks is a talented actor who
in 2015
proved herself as a director with pitch
perfect 2 depending on the project she
chooses thanks could very well become
one of the leading female directors in
the industry if she continues to
champion strong female casts she could
also be a major agent of change
unfortunately we have our doubts about
her next film
if anyone’s capable of pulling off a
Charlie’s Angels reboot its banks but
we’re not convinced anyone can the 2011
TV reboot failed and though it’s been
nearly two decades since the 2000 film
still feels like a part of pop culture
the potential for failure just seems so
high good morning charlie
so what do you guys think is isn’t it
romantic Dustin to be this year’s I feel
pretty let us know in the comments and
keep an eye out for me because I have
some very strong opinions on the fate of some of these movies bye guys
and we certainly don’t need another one
