Now this may be a slightly controversial take but I firmly believe that the misunderstanding of what Maleficent (2014) was about and the subsequent hatred is what led to the following slew of uninspired, lazy cash grab soulless remakes.

#it wasnt about 'oh the villain was actually good all along!!!'#it was a bout WHAT IF the villain were the good one and the suppsedly herois king isnt actually a hero #it wasnt meant to be making a statement about the original #it wasnt meant to '''woobify''' the villain #it was a DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE #and not enough people understood that they just hated it for being a rewrite #so disney went 'oh okay shot for shot soulless cash grabs will make more money than actually putting in effort to reimagine things'#and then proceeded to make that their strategy for the next forever
