Like I said, I can't say I'm surprised, just disappointed. Parents don't care enough about the quality of what they take their kids to see, and kids just see funny mascot and want to watch it regardless.

I'm also disappointed that the film is performing well, but I'm not disappointed with parents. Movie theaters are a time-waster for kids. My frustration with parents only arises when they take their children to see movies full of gay shit and other inappropriate subjects.

Now, if a movie is intended for adults or teenagers, then I get upset with audiences for supporting low-quality art.

Oh fucking crumpets....I just received a premonition after the Lilo and Stitch debacle whats gonna happen

They are gonna have it be Bambi's mom make the stunningly brave and empowering choice that she doesnt want to be shackled down taking care of her unwanted child, so she up and abandons him on the proverbial doorstep of her babydaddy (who is now basically homer simpson as a deer, and is probably voiced by Jack Black) to go study marine biology at the University of California discover herself and her own truth offscreen until the end of the movie, where she returns and becomes Queen of the Forest after stopping the forest fire....somehow

Greetings, Only-other-person-who-has-talked-about-that-movie! I was very entertained by it back in the day.



How do you "tone down" an off-screen death? Is Bambi going to start singing Buckle Your Pants after being told she's dead?

Bambi's mother will be taken to a non governmental autonomous zone by a fat blue haired social worker explaining how best to use new and exciting sex toys (and how lots of older men would like to meet Bambi) after being saved from the hunter who is wearing a red cap and has a strangely orange complexion by a mob of masked figures all in black who beat the hunter to death on screen for 40 minutes and are loudly cheered by all the woodland creature for this fine example of community justice.

PSA get the physical media while you can - blu ray available on Amazon for £5.

The entire Hunter character and subplot will be modernised. He is now a white radicalised school shooter who seeks to force bambi onto the alt-right pipeline. Thankfully random-female-deer-bambi-likes from the original movie has also been modernised (and is naturally voiced by Zendaya) and she leads the woodland resistance against.....fucking kill me just fucking kill me already

Children are not capable of understanding complex themes or ideas. They're just kids.

Right, but when they're implemented well into a movie as a moral lesson, kids can pick up on it and mull on it as time goes on and they grow up. It helps them appreciate stories better as they develop that comprehension and look back on how it was lovingly taught to them. Family films used to be able to do this well into the 2000s, then a flip switched to where now they can't get into topics like (using Disney examples) abuse of authority, a father dealing with his rebellious free-spirited daughter, or that being color/raceblind in a childhood friendship can't always survive when nature calls. None of this is possible these days because bias has taken the wheel and will rather drive off the cliff to their demise than to let the previous driver get back in the driver's seat.

And this isn't just a movie problem, this is a book problem as well. Entertainment for the sake of entertainment can only go so far in a child's development.

Did somebody prank them by switching Bambi with one of the Death Wish movies before they gave it the single contractually mandated viewing and they never noticed, and have thus assumed that Bambi's mother was raped to death aboard an NYC subway car?

Like seriously are they gonna replace the gunshot with the Taco Bell sound? I mean how in the fuck are they talking about toning down an offscreen 1940s disney movie animal death?!

"Not to spoil the plot, but there's a treatment of the mom dying that I think some parents these days are more sensitive about than they were in the past. And I think that's one of the reasons that they haven't shown it to their children. But I do think there is a way to update Bambi, and our take on it... did give a little bit more of a scope to it. And I just think that to be able to bring it to life for kids these days in a way that maybe they relate to a little bit more would be of service to the original," she said.

The "how" they were going to do it isn't clear, but the motivation is the usual "anything old is wrong and bad and we're smarter than them but we also can't make money without standing on their shoulders" crap.

It probably doesn't help that anything that frightened anyone as a child is now "trauma", so a bunch of people claim to be "traumatized " by this sad scene in a movie. The death was off screen, but well done. The main character goes through something that's naturally sad and the audience felt the same way; does this make it an effective scene that achieved its goal of invoking an emotion? No, of course not; that means it went too far and the creators just didn't know what they were doing! Let's"fix" it so people don't feel strong feelings anymore!

Then Disney wonders why their films nowadays suck and don't resonate with anyone.

That's why they're "normies". Mainstream media for a long time has said piracy is bad that it's rooted itself into pop culture, and they listen to what the TV tells them.

Also laziness. It's way easier to get a subscription and leave it on autopay then it is took look up sites or figure out torrents. That said, even they're trying to figure out sailing the high seas with the way everything is being priced nowadays.

I'll blame the parents thinking their children will watch anything, no matter how stupid it is. Children deserve better and their parents need to wake the fuck up.

So I (unwillingly) saw L&S today and yeah, it's everything you'd imagine, maybe worse. Too many script and character changes that rubbed me the wrong way to list. Besides the obvious, three things that stuck out to me as exceptionally dumb that I wasn't prepared for:

1) Unnecessary "Stitch died, loljk he's okay" ending.
2) Health insurance being a major plot point.
3) (And this left me absolutely gobsmacked) during the "WHAT ABOUT OHANA??" argument that ensues after Nani gets fired that Nani now says, almost verbatim, that what is supposed to be the catchphrase of the entire movie is a beautiful idea but "not realistic." I have never seen Disney gaslighting THIS hard that its old movies had bad morals (But I've also not watched most of their recent catalog...)

Holy fuck everyone in Disney really and truly doesn't believe in magic and morals anymore. The anti-family message is just them being completely mask off at this point.

It's amazing that this remake probably is one of the most blatantly anti-family films in a long time. Like no matter where you stand, it is very open to see.

Especially when the whole leaving to California college thing just really sours things.

Nani could literally take a digital college or one in Hawaii she could commute to. Hell the idea of the aliens joining the family in the original was to show how Lilo's family unit expanded, but they made them not do that instead just give Lilo to the neighbor.

With this logic, should a struggling single mom give her kid up to someone but because she occasionally visits them, it would be fine?
