Besides "Blach Hole" they made "Something Wicked This Way Comes" [which broke the bank at Disney], "Tron", and "Watcher in the Woods". It's too bad they don't make many risky moves like that anymore. Although, they did make "Pirates of the Carribean".
That Live action Jungle book movie was pretty good and very undisney like for its time (No singing and shit), Action packed and alot of horror if you think of them snake scenes and how they almost mirror to Anaconda. It was a huge sucess then Disney screwed it by making live action kiddy Jungle book movies and that atrocity called Tuck Everlasting (Which I never saw thankfully) It was sopposed to be the spirited sequeil to the Jungle book which it waisnt, The Jungle book had action,horror and romance a good combination and a really good story it appealed to both men and women.
POTC was pretty good , Not for action or FX (which it had) but story, chemistry and wit some great personality. Who ever knew the rolling stones were a good place to get ideas of how to be a pirate.In a way that was a real spirited sequeil to JB.
