Ariel the mermaid simply pounded real-life Aladdin into submission — or, extra precisely, her followers did … this after the dude juxtaposed his flick with hers, which pissed lots of people off.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

He was responding to an account that was reporting on how a lot ‘TLM’ was slated to make in its opening weekend — about $115M, which it then in comparison with the $112M ‘Aladdin’ made in its opening weekend run. Mena had some ideas on that … some took it as shade.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

MM wrote, “Our movie was distinctive in that audiences went to observe it a number of occasions. It’s the one manner we reached the billion greenback mark with our opening.” “Aladdin” went on to make $1.054 bil internationally … and its preliminary field workplace numbers had been thought of a giant win.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

Then got here a comment that obtained Mena attacked. He adopted up and stated, “My guess is TLM does not cross the billion mark however will undoubtedly get a sequel.” Unclear if he adopted that up with any clarification on what he meant — however this alone obtained Halle followers up in arms.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n

You can hop into the “Aladdin<\/strong><\/a>” development your self and see what they’re saying … however mainly, the response wasn’t good. Some felt Mena’s remark right here was an inexpensive shot and suggesting ‘Little Mermaid’ wasn’t truly worthy of any future success, together with a doable sequel.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
