Gee, I wonder how many people will complain about how they replaced Eddie Murphy with a white guy...

I've seen a few. But it seems to stem from those that either just love the original (which fine, nostalgia and stuff) or those that didn't even know that there was a 60's version.

No one cares about the 60s movie, hell no one will care about this one either, I guess in the original stories he was white so whatever.
When people think of Dr. Doolittle they think of Eddie Murphy, but they already direct-to-video the hell out of that continuity with her daughter who became the new doolittle so no way to continue it, especially since Kyla Pratt looks like she ate her former self. They might as well have this reboot that will bomb and people will continue to have fond memories of that first Eddie Murphy film. |

You're gonna have a hard time proving that at this moment considering his last movie WAS Endgame.

And as we've seen, people's MCU "Cred" Doesn't necessarily extend outside of those specific films. Every Avenger has had several other films do mixed-to-poor business before, during and after the tidal wave of popularity of "Infinity War/Endgame".
People love to see those folks get dolled up in CGI costumes and zip around shooting lasers at each other, but none of them are bulletproof outside of that specific arena.

Looks watchable enough to me, different style/setting from the last also making it a less unnecessary.(well to me anyway) Might see it.

As probably the only person on here who owns the entire Dolittle book collection, let me just say...
Downey might be playing Dolittle in the same vein as Sherlock Holmes or Tony Stark, but thank God this will at least be a step up from those atrocious Eddie Murphy movies.

It's on track to be a gargantuan dud. Also, apparently the reshoots are the worst parts of the movie:

That isn't fair to say. People cared about the Eddie Murphy version. It even had like 3 or 4 sequels, apparently.

Yeah, but Eddie was only in the 1st 2. The next several follow his daughter who inherited his abilities.
I saw it for my wife's birthday (we had a AMC gift card, planned on seeing Little Women, but missed the last showing.) And we were both surprised by how much we liked it...but we are parents of kids in the target demographic.
