Every now and then when a movie is released in the UK, The studio behind that movie feels the need to change the name slightly to avoid confusion with other properties. In recent years we have had The Avengers renamed "Avengers: Assemble" to avoid confusion with the 1960's TV Series "The Avengers". Yes, that's right...We Brits may confuse a TV show 99.9% of us have never seen or heard of with one of the most Anticipated, biggest franchises of all time.
This week Disney announced that their big summer adventure flick will be released as "Tomorrowland: A World Beyond" in the UK.
Now I do usually find these re-naming of Movies annoying, if not insulting at times (Fast Five being renamed Fast & Furious 5, really? Like we had never heard of the series and couldn't make the link?) but with Tomorrowland I can Understand where Disney are coming from.
Tomorrowland is inspired by the popular Disneyland area "Tomorrowland", Just visiting the area in the parks you can see the concepts and feel of the future. But in Disneyland Paris the Tomorrowland area of the park is actually named "Discoveryland". The reason for this could be that it possibly translates better than Tomorrowland in to the different European languages, and the vast majority of UK viewers have more than likely been to Disneyland Paris than one of the US parks.
Tomorrowland: A World Beyond lands in UK Cinemas on May 22nd, as as one of my Top 3 films for 2015 I can not wait!
