My anger is fully spent at this point. my only hope (which is dwindling by the second) is that the marketing and (paid) positive critical reception doesn't work and it bombs. But I fully expect this thing to make a bajillion dollars just to spite me. COME ON, CLOWN WORLD! DISAPPOINT ME!
This is me every time a live action remake that destroys what made the animated original timeless gets critical praise:

"People" like this should be gassed for the good of society
 
@Tricky Well, Disney World has been one of the top Honeymoon destinations for 40 years now, so there's always been adults who have enjoyed Disney stuff ... Just as Walt intended when Disneyland came to be.

In my opinion, there's nothing wrong with that. Sometimes, people just want to have fun, be silly, watch wholesome movies, and go to wholesome theme parks. And especially when you're a parent, enjoying these things with your kids allows you to revisit your childhood in a very good and healthy way.

These people are not what I would call "Disney Adults," just like how people who just enjoy anime aren't automatically "Weeaboos." In my opinion, you can enjoy something without getting cringy about it, lol.

I’m asexual, please note this! Don’t bring up this topic. I'm hypersensitive in this theme.

I'm interesting only in chunky/chubby boys, sorry.

I'm not interested in long-distance relationships. if you write to me it means you are ready to meet after ~a week of communication. I'm not against building a relationship with a person from towns close to Manchester, I can buy an unlimited travel ticket and come every day.

I’m international student at the art university. I’m autistic and geeky. I like to sit at home, clean, cook and play games. I am partially disabled please DM me only if you don't mind living with me and taking care daily 🤗

This post about the most huggable character!!! I like how much troubles his appearance brought to the plushie designers 😅 I only own the 2nd toy and I rlly enjoy sleeping cuddled with it
I don't want to know what she does with that plushie.
 
You know, people looking back didn't seem to care that Lilo was played by a White Girl, and just praised her acting ( Even native Hawaiians did) .

I doubt people would've given her wonderful take on lilo a pass today
If you have talent you can get away with it. Robert Downey Jr played a black person and it was a success.

The worst thing is the faggot redditor only did it for upvotes. He couldve just worn all that to a theatre and went on with his life but he had to get that epic karma from bots and blind consumers.
 
Can't wait for people to be surprised when the Stich movie makes a billion dollars, kids movies and horror are near impossible to lose money on. both rely on people with child sized brains who can't judge a quality product if they tried. That lion King prequel made about a billion dollars last year because Disney just kept it in theaters until it did.
I'm not going to be surprised if it does, but I will be disappointed. There really isn't much in the way of competition aside from if the kids somehow still haven't seen the Minecraft movie yet, so parents looking for something to drag their kids to will have basically no alternative for the next few weeks until, ironically, the live-action How to Train Your Dragon remake comes out, then Elio the following week (which is also Disney, but that's a whole other conversation). Given it was much more modestly budgeted than the Snow White disaster (estimated $100 million compared to nearly $300 million), it won't need to make nearly as much to be a success. There are also no scandals or debacles around it, aside from people like those here who are simply wondering why this needed to be made in the first place and why they felt the need to make such stupid changes, but that hasn't stopped Disney from pumping these out yet.

There's still four more of these things in the pipe, with Moana scheduled for next year, and The Aristocats, Hercules, and photo-realistic CGI Bambi announced. I doubt we'll see another Snow White-level bomb that might make them consider course-correcting. It seems that parents really don't give that much of a fuck about what they take their kids to see, as long as it keeps them occupied for a couple of hours. Not to mention the idea that "newer = better," that kids somehow won't be as captivated by a decades-old animated movie as they would something new.

The sad truth is that these keep getting made because it's easy money, with Disney not having to do any of the work involved with coming up with a new thing, simply copy-pasting every script developed by more talented people (and then ruining it by updating it for "modern sensibilities"). We can hate it all we want, but until parents as a whole get better taste, nothing will stop the Rat from tarnishing their own legacy again and again.

Eventually people will just stop going to theaters because their kids end up hating it ever time. These updated modern plots make the shows hard to watch for children. The Little Mermaid was intended for kids but most kids could barely handle sitting down and watching. Eventually kids will just start having a tantrum when they are dragged to the theater.
 
The reviews have come out. The leak was all real, Jumba’s the antagonist, and Nani ends the movie going off to college.
I really want to know what their reasoning behind all these shit choices were. Gantu is gone, the guy who was the driving force who initiated the plot and the reason for the big finale. Jumba is now just the deranged scientist he was in the beginning instead of learning empathy and eventually becoming part of the family. Bubbles is now just a villain instead of someone who was trying very hard not to separate Lilo and Nani until the situation became too dangerous and his hand was forced. And Nani, the woman who spends the entire movie fighting tooth and nail so Lilo and her aren't separated even when she's clearly overwhelmed by the responsibilities forced on her just fucks off at the end to do her own thing. It's shit, the people working on this didn't understand the original at all. Probably still going to do fine since it wasn't a PR nightmare like Snow White, but any hype I had for this movie is completely gone.

It's sad to see Chris Sanders' baby being peed on like this.
 
At this point I'd rather go to some ridiculous megachurch amusement park the size of Disneyland.
Last time I was at a Disney theme park was in 2018. I went to Disneyland for the first (and probably last) time.

I enjoyed myself for the most part, don't get me wrong ... But since 2020, I've heard about what has changed at the Disney Parks and I'm like "Hell no I don't want to do that." The lines are even longer, you have to have an app on your phone to be able to do anything now, everything is more expensive, etc. Sounds terrible now, unfortunately.

What sucks for me personally is that I have little kids now, and it no longer seems practical to do a Disney vacation with them anytime soon.

If I'm going to do any theme parks with them, it's going to be Universal.

Implying kids don't do this on the regular because it takes them away from their tablets for two hours.

It saddens me how true this statement is. Every time I feel overwhelmed as a parent, I think to myself, "at least nobody in this house has a tablet" and I feel much better. lol.

As a kid we shared a family TV, I had to share the PS1 with my sister even though she was afraid of games like Dino Crisis, and we went outside practically everyday unless it was rain or my parents were punishing us. Now every kid has a tablet, cellphone, PC before they even reach 9.

I grew up at a time when just having a TV outside the living room was still a new concept. We were practically the first family with cable on the block and home video was an expensive novelty. I'm too overwhelmed by modern tech to even care about how I feel of it. I've had enough, it seems.

there was one in the living room, the parents room, then when I got a home computer (the atari 800XL! clearly not for video games, it has a keyboard and everything!) I got a tv in my room, but I didn't get cable, it was mostly just so we didn't have to fight over the tv for not video games
eventually my dad's job was closing and the small kitchen tv wasn't nailed down so he brought it home to be our small kitchen tv
soon after it became replaced by a small kitchen color tv with a feed split off from the living room cable box
I eventually attached more consoles, a vcr, a videodisc player, and some other shit before it was iirc cheaper to get three boxes than two so I got cable finally eventually.
 
Stitch is also less a raging beast but more a pet with the odd outburst because is cheaper to animate, so even the alien is safe-edgy now. I wonder if these changes were made due to sloth (Gantu didn't look good in CGI and it was easier to rewrite the script than making him fit), greed (cutting the antagonist was cheaper), incompetence (self-explanatory), arrogance (their vision is better because of course it is!), or all of the above at once.
Having the older sister randomly go to college points to arrogance though, as wokes are fixated with that place.
 
Each subsequent remake makes me need to pull out a new type of measurement to show how lousy they are.

The worst of them overall across the board is Lion King, doubt that this will be overtaken.
The most pathetic of them is Snow White
The biggest Ego Trip I preemptively give to Moana
The worst renditions of classic songs and worst new songs is in Aladdin
The shittiest CGI in any of them is Little Mermaid (CGI fish are way uglier than Lion King in my opinion)
And now the one that misses the themes of the original the most is Lilo and Stitch.

I can't wait to see what other stipulations I'd have to apply in the future!
