#every live action remake

[nerdyenby]

The way so many companies (especially Disney) have been profiting off of nostalgia for the past few years has never sat right with me, but how about that Phineas and Ferb renewal?

Wait, I thought you all were taking the piss with 'live-action Moana'!!

That's actually a thing that Disney's doing?!

"they need to stop with live action remakes"

sadly, that is not going to happen. there will always be people who will buy tickets to see these movies, whether you like it or not. it's obvious it's making money, because disney keeps making them.

Real things Zuko has done in ATLA:

Took down a small army's worth of trained fire nation soldiers without fire-bending

Took down a fire nation general by himself

Took on a bolt of lightning

and

Went toe-to-toe with a water-bender (who already kicked his ass) in the middle of blizzard, in middle of the night, and was just injured from an explosion.

I will never shut up about how Cinderella (2015) is the only Disney Live Action Remake to ever be good. Or successful in any true sense. You know why? It’s the only one to not only remind everyone of what was beloved about the original, but it enhanced the original without twisting its meaning.

there are like 400 reasons that I don't want to see snow white 2025 but if ppl start talking about stuff they did "better" than snow white 1937 i will have to see it against my will. you understand

My desire to gaze upon Jeremy Allen White's acting prowess is once again at war with my desire to consume media of a calming and lighthearted nature at the end of a long day of staring at screens full of real-life horrors.

What issues did you have with Lion Guard’s Final season?

I disclosed them in a separate post but to recap those points; it basically goes against everything the show has established itself upon in the first and second season, retconning word-building, characters, development, morals, lessons, and other elements of the show's DNA, all for the sake of its central story, rather than progressing with the overall story. It feels more like a softcore revamp than a final season (hence why I've often compared it to Bunk'd in terms of quality, or lackthereof) Which is why for me personally, a lot of Season 1-2 episodes that I enjoy (pilot included) are retroactively spoiled because of Season 3's writing (i.e. Janja's poorly paced redemption arc, or Bunga's character assassination, or the final episode proving the villains of one of the earlier episodes in the right). It's frankly a mess. Whether this was done out of last minute rewrites, or as an attempt to be fanservice, or if this weird writing was the plan since day 1, I'll never know, but it doesn't earn much kindness from me.

If I were to bring anything new to the table, I'd say that another ounce of beef I have with Season 3 is with its release. Someone at Disney Jr. apparently thought that it was a smart idea to release every episode of the final season online within a full month, before any of the episodes (sans Battle for the Pride Lands) released on television. The show's advertising directed viewers (both in and out of the show's target demographic) to DisneyNow or watchtlg.netify to see the new episodes. Because of this, I (and I assume many others) watched the new episodes online and called it a day with the show. Barely anyone saw the final episodes when they aired, and because of that, the already stunted viewership of the show had taken a final devastating crash-drive. The show did poorly with reruns and eventually was pulled out of its timeslot almost two months later.

So yeah, Season 3 is just bad in almost every regard. lmao.

i hate you live action remakes of animated movies i hate you so so so much

[paintsplash1712]

Instead of giving Netflix money and watching the 8 hour extended cut of the M. Night live action they're calling a series I'm just going to watch the original animated show again.

Animation is an art form(!) and the fact that these companies are trying in every way to destroy such a beautiful series and medium because it was an animated family show is truly saddening

[inaflashimagine]

on the day that atla live action remake comes out i'm gonna watch the animated one. just out of spite

[hazelcallahan]
