Why Do Disney Remakes Keep Making Money? 

Review Christopher Robin (2018)

CGI Will Smith is creppy okay. This looks like a horror movie .

Make a review of "The Ant Bully" please!

Review Aladdin (2019)

Please review The Simpsons Movie (2007)

Its never been respected. When animated movies were nominated for best picture, the academy just made a new animation category, thereby eliminating any animated movie from being nominated for anything other than best animated feature. And most, if not all, mainstream animated movies released in a year are targeted towards kids. And audiences almost always go for Disney or Pixar or Illumination, and never for the more creative but alienating studios like Laika. The few adult animated movies are either based on existing properties, like the Simpsons, or it becomes nothing but sex jokes and swears, Sausage Party, or it's foreign, like Waltz with Bashir. The only places where animation is now starting to get respect are RU-vid and the Annie Awards, the Oscars for animation. Someday, an animated feature will get awards not because it's animated, but despite it. That day is not here, but I think soon.

@@IsaacPrinTheNerd Thankfully, animation is gaining more respect as younger generations who grew up with them mostly treat them with respect and see the medium as is. Also, anime has been growing more outside of Japan and helping animation be seen in a different light. It's just a shame that animators are still screwed in the industry as a whole.

@@IsaacPrinTheNerd Your comment is very much not educated in any way, I strongly and respectfully reccomend you do more research into this subject before you makre yourself look more of a fool than you already have.

I didn't care much about animated movies when I was a kid. I only started to take them seriously as an adult

And that honestly sucks. There's such fantastic storytelling in these films along with the meaningful messages.

👏😌

Well while your at it, how about remembering this phrase "OPINIONS EXIST" buuut... then again your a youtube commenter so I guess this verbal rape of others opinions and what counts as humanity are normal for you.

There’s hope and chance for the future.

I felt the same way when my 12 year old nephew liked the original Star Wars better than ep 1-3.

@@genghiskengmail so if he liked the ladder you would have slapped him, abused him, manipulated him into believing the opposite opinion is the only correct opinion like everybody else on the internet cause its turned into a civil war battleground

Tell your dad I said he can suck it!! Animation is superior!!!

Oh, you have one of those too? My condolences.

Sonic The hedgehog I agree. It’s like Disney live action remakes and any live action remake of a cartoon own his soul. He even prefers the last air bender over the cartoon series because he says it’s more grown up for being live action?!

@@firenze6478 Give this man either an exorcism or an eviction notice. There are no other options.

Lol, has he seen Micheal Bay's transformers?

same with Mary Poppins returns and Alice in Wonderland(if they only changed the name for this one people would understand as Doug already said in his review of the movie)

That and Christopher Robin is a good movie.

XxHeavensXAnglexX not even that. it's more of another separate story in the Pooh series

If this current wave of Disney nostalgia flicks were approached as Christopher Robin was, we wouldn’t be having the argument

and it is a neat concept, Christopher Robin as an adult revisiting his old friends. Taking the Winnie the Pooh franchise in a new direction.

Because mi original live action movies failed

No shit Sherlock every corporations job is to make money why the fuck would they make movies that don’t make money

“We’ve got to have money!”

Sharan Arora Of course money is a reason to make a movie, but it shouldn’t be the only reason

Heaven forbid a business make money

They might want to take their kids to watch those movies and go to MOVIE theater(not Home Netflix). Plus kids these days have seen today's higher graphics and visual stunting shows so old movies (even if they were good) would feel bland to them.

@@zuhayrroha4392 So Disney would probably make a lot more money (considering there would be no production cost whatsoever, and marketing would be comparably much less) just re-releasing their original films in theatres. It wouldn't be a first. You'd also not get backlash and you wouldn't see them actively spit on their prior films every chance they get in interviews. Also, modern computer graphics have no bearing on high-level hand-drawn animation. They are completely separate styles, just because kids today grew up with computer graphics doesn't make entirely hand-drawn art look comparatively worse. When they mixed hand-drawn with computer graphics, I could see that becoming dated today, but that was pretty much only with Tarzan and a few, long-panning scenery shots in a couple of other films. The Little Mermaid (for example) wouldn't be affected at all, and almost all the other Renaissance films would still look wonderful. Though, I do see your point about families wanting to go to the theatre instead of watch a movie at home. Fair point .

@@zuhayrroha4392 YES! So few people seem to understand that Disney makes films for children, and the majority of people seeing these films are parents who saw the original sharing the story with their children in a way that a lot of modern children will enjoy. Personally, I do wish they'd make more original and new stories and that plenty of today's kids can still enjoy the classic versions BUT these remakes serve a purpose and make the business money, so why not share the stories with the next batch of movie fans, and in 20 years they'll be discussing how their version is the best and the new new version sucks!

It's because of the other three elements that the NC talked about. They all complete each other. Nostalgia is the biggest reason but it is still incomplete for many people that's why the other 3 are there to persuade everyone else.

Yeah I always thought if you wanna relive nostalgia just watch the originals over again.

Public Domain: We belong...... to everyone.

Executives: We are the Thanos Snap

Disney has sold out.

It doesn’t take that long to forget your maker. MCU Twitter staff forgot about Stan Lee before he was even dead

It'll be super easy, barely an inconvenience!

@@ianspencer5327 references are tight.

Remember that time someone from had a creative idea for an animated movie, but CG movies were more popular (and thus, safer) so the studio sabotaged it so they would have an excuse to stop financing animated movies? I'm talking about Treasure Planet. That movie deserved better

all hail money 😂

Heather LaPlant an animated movie about bats or another undersea movie by Disney (we have the critically acclaimed Nemo series from Pixar, Atlantis, and the Little Mermaid series), a story taking place in Outer Space, a story taking place at a zoo or a museum or a botanical garden or the swimming pool or the park. All could be animated as well. Heck I dare say that they *should* be animated.

@Heather LaPlant ya i guess that's why now Disney/Marvel and their major rival WB/DC been tryin anti-hero/supervillain movies recently...a somewhat fresh spin on comic book movies 😌

Especially a new Muppet movie

Does anyone notice that all of these genres would appeal to the Chinese demographic?

@Dylan Sharp *four types of Blockbusters Ya happy?

They did tho, both original Beauty and the Beast and Lion King were re-released in 3D, but didnt make nearly as much money as remakes

@Reality still that wouldn't make a billion, so they prefer to remake since everyone goes to see that

Otaku Bullfrog I remember they used to do that on special occasions. Example: Fandango rereleased old movies or even marathon Classic Doctor Who episodes due to an anniversary. Nowadays they don’t and I can see why. I mean I get it, I would rather just rewatch the movie I have at home but responses like this are probably why they do remakes. To make people feel like they’re seeing something new.

Oh wow. I hope Disney never pulls the originals. Oh people would be outraged. Pulling also won't work at all. It won't work in this day and age with all the technology especially the internet. It is ridiculously easy to bootleg and pirate movies these days. People will do it, if they are desperate enough. To some extent, I can see where they are coming from. If someone has no way to legally obtain a piece of media in their location, it seems reasonable for them to turn to more shady methods. It should be the media company's fault that they loose out on sales due to poor availability. They should invest in better distribution. The best way around that is for the media company is to provide more legal methods of obtaining their products. Even if there are remakes, the original films should be made available. This is what Disney is doing with the Disney Plus streaming service. Once someone subscribes to Disney Plus, they have access to all of the Disney movies both originals and remakes. That is good. That is a legitimite way to give out the content. However I do think it is unfair that Disney movies can't be viewed on other streaming services like Netflix. To me it seems like capatalism going too far and the government should break streaming services down with anti trust laws. This situations reminds me of World of Warcraft. It is an online game made by Blizzard. This game occasionally gets updated with expansions. There is new content and tweaks to the game play. Unfortunately some people don't like new expansions. There are people desperate enough to play older versions on their own private computer servers and give no financial support to Blizzard. Blizzard doesn't like this. It shut down one site with private servers and an older version. Later it released World of Warcraft Classic. It is an alternative version of World of Warcraft that has no expansions. This version is called Vanilla by the fandom. The classic version runs alongside the updated version. I think releasing World of Warcraft Classic was a good idea. It gives people what they want in a legal and legitimate manner. That way people won't have to resort to shady methods so desperately. Vanilla World of Warcraft is like the origional Disney movies. Just because they are old, it does not mean they are bad or they are not worth attention. Both are great at nostalgia. So these are worth preserving for the future.

How many Disney live action remakes movies.

Same with mine, without the applause

Popcorn zombies.

That's some sci-fi crap right there... So unsettling

good glad that people still appreciate disney for their glory days

Are you sure we are not in a very long black mirror episode?

Lmao 😂

First thing that came to mind seeing all that green.

Am I the only one who thinks they could add this scene in Clockwork Orange and nobody would ask any questions about it?

I was very unsettled by the hhhhoney ad.

@@kellyedwards6429 Unfortunately, it is. Get yo facts straight. I wish it weren't true myself, but that's life for ya.

ANYWAY, yeah this pisses me off so much. We literally haven't had an original animated film from Disney SINCE Moana in 2016. Three years ago! Ralph 2 sucked balls, and this year we're getting Frozen II, which looks pretty promising so far but I ain't holding my breath. After Frozen II, Disney has not even revealed what their next animated project will be. It could very well be a freakin Zootopia sequel. So we have NO info about Disney's new animated projects, but they'll announce casting for the live action remakes out the wazoo. It's such bullshit. Luckily, Pixar has two original films coming next year. At least they know what they're doing and finally stopped having a sequel-fest. Wish I could say the same for regular Disney.

Renee I believe that the next original film Disney is doing is Raya and the Last Dragon, which they announced back at D23. 😁

@@Lauren_210 And we got three original films over last year and this one, but I think it might be too late, as right-wing youtube is still Hyucking it up.

It's like a broadway stage show, you go to see it done differently but the same

im curious what a live action cars will look like lol

Miranda Barden I mean considering how expensive it is to see a broadway show versus a movie, I would damn well hope you did

Joshua Seagondollar The only one I’m sort of interested in seeing is the Hunchback of Norte Dame.

@@M0b1us_118 Why? It's allready perfect. You know they'll butcher that one too

@@M0b1us_118 hopefully they change it up. Especially with the gargoyles ._.

philip lagerwall True, very true, the only things I care about are the casting choices and the Hell Fire scene (which I know, it won’t be as good as the original.)

@@M0b1us_118 Aww, dangit. Now you made me curious too. This is why the keep making those remakes.

@marianne mccrank well when they made something original for once people didn't support it. Treasure Planet was awesome.. Too bad it bombed

Like they care.

Or have the scene from the GOOD lion king were simbas father is a cloud but it’s Walt disney

Ethan Rossignol That’s what he is referencing

The board would vote him out

Walt: Remember.... who you are.... Disney Studios: Remake the Lion King? Thanks Mr. Disney

so true, when Disney makes an original live action movie it fails, like Tomorrowland or A Wrinkle in Time , at least the remakes get people talking about how much they like or not like them so people go and see the movie. There is more speculation about how they will tackle something that already exist rather than something new.

Even when the familiar was better in every way and you could just rewatch that

@@patax144 A Wrinkle in Time is a remake though, and isnt Tomorrowland just a movie based on a defunct attraction so it was just another attempt to pull a Pirates of the Caribbean

Like "comic" fans getting mad at tom holland and praising tobey for being "comic accurate"

FromBeyondTheGrave1 tomorrowland is actually a themed land in the magic kingdom at Disneyland and Disney world

For me, there was "Beetlejuice", "Back to the Future", "Dumb and Dumber", and possibly other cartoons that I didn't know were based on movies at the time...

1. The Beetlejuice cartoon is an insult to the movie. They shouldn't exist in the same universe. 2. Sequel or remake it's crap, and its only purpose is to reclaim the copyright on the Alice in Wonderland story. Same with the remakes.

@powerstar 2028 I've only seen the movie but I'm guessing that it's definitely better.

Jade Jaws Alice in Wonderland is not crap

Elizabeth Why would a sequel of Alice in Wonderland be called Alice in Wonderland? Also Wonderland in the new version is actually Underland.

Great quote!

@Neil Brown Ratatouille was beautiful, thanks.

Another reason why Ratatouille is amazing

I love that quote it’s my favourite part of the movie the new needs friends like the new animated movis made entirely by a privet group of animators “hazbin hotel” you gotta check it out it’s incredible.

The world needs to give the new friends

2025 was the last date I heard, unless they push it back again like they have with the last three announced release dates.

2025, but I heard that it was gonna only be 2023, damn these delays.

Paul Giamatti as Doug

Let's get Danny Devito to play Malcolm

But we have to keep Bill as Bill. No one can be nearly as wise, kind and knowledgeable as Bill except for Bill himself.

I like both remakes. The 2016 was actually more faithful to the book as well at some points (the Buffalo scene was a nod to Shere Khan’s death in the original book, and the Bander-log were outcasts among the animals like in the book as was the scene with Mowgli and the Red Flower)

Mine’s 101 dalmatians

Same story, same scenes, same characters but difference os execution is crap.

You mean Mr. Krabs is in charge of Disney now? That makes way too much sense...

@@flamescion To think crabs rules Disney... one day it'll come full circle and we'll just have them dancing on money piles.

@I Like Free Speech It's surprisingly easy, too. Ever since I linked my accounts, now all of my videos just automatically get copied over there when they publish without me having to lift a finger.

Surprised this hasn't been deleted yet...

Live-action Lilo and stitch is going to be a freaking nightmare..

Mozenrath was originally going to be revealed as Aladdin’s brother in King of Thieves, but the idea was scrapped. There was possibility for an Aladdin 4, with Mozenrath as the villain...but Johnathan Brandis the voice actor for Mozenrath died before any work had been done on the story. So no Aladdin 4 after all.

The cat is the best Alladin villain

🤔While I like that Aladdin did find his dad, I always wondered how the story would have gone if Aladdin and Mozenrath found out they were brothers. Mozenrath was personality my favorite villain in the Aladdin TV series. It's such a shame we never will due to what happened to Johnathan Brandis. May he rest in peace 😔

Barbie did a 12 dancing princesses movie. As a kid I really enjoyed it. Disney could do that. Disney princesses is a big money making franchise. Frozen has two princesses, and that is another big franchise. Both are financially lucrative, and they have huge fan bases. Personally I am a big fan. Imagine what it would be like if Disney made an awesome movie with twelve princesses. People would go nuts. It has the potential to be big. Speaking of Barbie, she does have a Rupunzel movie. It had a creative spin of making the Rupunzel character into a painter. This is an old movie. Tangled came out later. It also depits Rupunzel as a painter. I wonder if Disney got the idea from the Barbie movie.

Plus, I'm pretty sure James Woods would come in and play him again if asked.

I would've gone with Scar.

That would have been a lot more fun and fitting. Maleficent was never supposed to be a sympathetic villain, she was pure evil and making her sympathetic really watered down her character. Hades, on the other hand, can be played much better and more convincingly as a sympathetic villain - he's just doing an unsavory job that no one else wants to do but everyone else hates him for it. If they leaned into that aspect of his character, it could have made a much better movie because he'd have a much stronger motivation, especially if we see him struggling with trying to be accepted and liked, only to be crapped on by his peers just because of his role in the Pantheon.

I don't see what kind of story you can tell with Hades.

@ Dargonhuman And they could have kept his fast-talking personality and playing it off as "masking pain beneath the veneer or humor" like Deadpool in the Deadpool movies.

Children are always at least 1 ticket more because they have to take their parents with them

One thing is that people who dislike the whole trope STILL watch it in the cinema. They are curious about them and want to bring out their opinions ASAP. ESPECIALLY if they are are an influencer.

Orange Icecream Pancakes after seeing the Aladdin reviews I wasn’t gonna go but my friend chose the movie on a whim, tbh I wasn’t disappointed. I actually had fun. What I’m saying is people are going because you never know the one you actually end up liking. Obviously I wasn’t the only one who felt that way considering the audience score.

Well jokes on them I haven't seen any of the remakes, since Beauty and the Beast. And you can be damn sure that my future children are not gonna grow up with them.

I don’t think the live-action remake of The Jungle Book is going to fade into obscurity considering the critical acclaim that film got from critics and the amount of money it made.

yeah forget Disney still makes good animated movies and original ones even more original than the ones they are remaking , if people supported the kind of Disney they want to see the animated movies the non remake live action movies perhaps Disney will stop making remakes and start making good live actions with the help of fox the same way they started making good animated movies again with the help of pixar

So long as they keep making money, they will keep making them.

Nostalgia is a disease and critic is the doctor

we need to make them do it: every now and then Disney does release a non remake movie but people always ignore those and they fail miserably, the moment one of these non remake movies actually gets some recognition and money Disney will stop making remakes . If you want for Disney to stop making remakes go see Jungle Cruise and Artemis Fowl next year instead of Mulan.

They won't stop unless a couple of the movies released in a row are financial flops 😩

@@patax144 even though it sounds like they are making changes to their Mulan story to better fit Chinese culture, and everyone's throwing a fit about that (don't ever read the original legend then, there was no Mushu in that either).

We 've got to have Money!

Longer answer: opinions exist and as human beings with sences of morality and equality(minus you of course) should have respect for these opinions.

Long Answer: MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYY!

Seven reason: To extend their ownership behind old copyrights. By making this easy to make remakes they extend their ownership behind those franchises for some more years.

I actually think your sixth reason is the most important. Disney always slums it for while after their golden periods, and 2019 marks the end of a sort of golden period for Disney with the Marvel films, Star War Films and the last generation of Pixar films all coming to an end this year. Disney is probably already planning for their next big decade in the second half of 2020s, but they need time and money to set that up, so they will rush out easy money making shlock, such as these live-action remakes to build up some easy capital and keep the Disney brand in the public eye. One of the reasons Disney has remained one of the world's most successful and influential media corporations for over 8 decades is because they ensure even in their slumps, they are making money, and are not out of the public eye nor giving their competitors any chances to move into their space.

Eighth reason: Similar to reason number three, some adults mistakingly think animated films equal little kid films, so these films give them an excuse to like a story from an animated film without making them fell like children in the immature sense.

Come to think of it. I've seen a ton of Lion King merchandise in stores recently. Not with the designs from the remake, but the designs from the original. These remakes are making people conscious of those original movies again, and likely making Disney a whole lotta money by making nostalgic properties more relevant than they have been since the original movie.

@@harrisonkrauss6584 I can't stand people who think that just because something is animated it's made for kids, like the people at the Academy Awards who nominate the best animated film even though some of them haven't even seen the films they nominate.

Holy shit, son - I see "Laika", I think "bringin' the big guns, huh?" XD

I like how Wes Anderson is now strongly associated with animation when he only made like two animated films out of his entire filmography...at least, that recognition is justified with how much uniqueness and artistry he brought onto the table exploring the medium.

Molly Ringwald is basically a literal Hypocrisy spewer. At one point, she says "The breakfast club doesn't need a remake. It is good as it is. If they do one, they would change a few characters with black or another gender. We don't need that." Later, she stars in Jem and the holograms remake, which was horryfying. She said in an interview that it is empowering. No it is not. It's idiotic and manipulative to fans. She is basically a fu**ing hypocritical character in real life.

@@vantagepoint9270 yes

Yeah! My Friend said "I want to make my own opinion", he doesn't think it'll be good but he still needs to give Disney $12 just get an opinion.

I was thinking the same thing @Wafawafa

@@Dilmahkana God I hate that transparent marketing strategy. Every shitty film maker always says "see the movie for yourself before you judge". In lieu of making a convincing trailer, arguably something ANY good film maker should be able to do, they just straight up ask for your money. Assholes.

It was too inconsistent to me.

Why do you think that, Gigantic was shelved for creative issues. Disney has two slots for animated movies per year. The live-action slots are a whole different studio. Do some research into Gigantic.

I don't think so, most of the people working on the live action stuff aren't working on the animated stuff, it was most likely cancelled because it wasn't working.

and also they can renovate the copyright on stuff that should be copyright free since it's super old like Dumbo

@@Jakioliberty I didn't even think of that. Papa Walt's not letting a single IP of theirs slip by them.

On a nostalgia basis

I mostly blame the audience! If people would stop watching them, disney would stop making them. I cannot really blame disney. It makes a lot of money, why should they stop?

As Doug said with ‘Pete’s Dragon’, it’s not as widely recognised of a brand as something like ‘Beauty and the Beast’ or ‘The Lion King’ are. If they remade ‘The Black Cauldron’, not many people would recognise it.

@@stormtraitor6545 True. Yet, they could play another game and market it as a "new movie". They wouldn't fool older audiences but young ones might actually love a dark fantasy movie that would definitely make them feel "grown up". And the Black Cauldron's universe is clearly franchise material.

I agree. I wish they'd remake movies that deserved another shot at the big screen and actually translates well to a live action movie. Might I add Atlantis and Treasure Planet to that list?

@@Revan-eb1wb Yeah, but seriously, people are too stupid.. It's really sad that the majority are dumb enough to think "it was a good movie the first time, why shouldn't it be good the second time"

The Mulan trailer actually looks like something that might be new and fresh. Plus,there's not going to be any singing or Mushu so it might be a solid film that has fresh take on the story. It's the only one that I'll pay money to see.

@@fruitbythefoote hell I wouldn't mind if they made it more like a martial arts movie like Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon or Hero

@@Rynn21 I doubt that highly. There is no way that killing dogs for fur coats could ever be misunderstood lmao. She's always been depicted as evil. In the original, in the live action remake, and in Once Upon a Time she was even depicted as loving evil and being evil by nature, unlike some of the other villains.

She did get a Golden Globe nomination for her performance, fortunately.

@@TECfan1 Actually Cruella has usually been brought as example of good villain on studies due she is perfect example of overall "decent" person with one fatal flaw. In other aspects Cruella wouldn't be any more evil than that well dressed boheme single aunt who has great career but dry and sarcastic attitude for those who are satisfied for less or just wanna have their nice little families. Annoying but not evil, like Hannibal, he would be one to be called to have nice cup of tea and have indepth chat with. However, there is that proneness toward cannibalism or in Cruella's case the insistance to make em puppies for nice coats. In some societies not even that would raise that many eyebrows except maybe stealing those puppies from yer friend. That said it would be interesting if Disney had balls to go bit more psychological at why overall this little deVil became so fascinated to make especially puppies a part of her wardrobe.

That was over acting not acting

I'm pretty sure they did that with the Lion King. Or like it was Lion King in 3D or something when 3D was really big.

This was already done for decades, up to the IMAX and 3D reissues of Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King. The remakes make far more money, even when they're not good.

@@GarudaMan9 True, but I definitely would go see the original Cinderella, Dumbo, Sleeping Beauty, Bambi, The Little Mermaid, etc. if they got released in theaters again. I wish they would :(

@@akajulester Heck they could probably do that with the original Star Wars... (And if they really want to double dip with the remakes why not have both the remake and the original in the theater at the same time? (I mean not the exact same time but staggered so after walking out of the remake you could go and watch the original...)

@@britipinojeff True. I saw the 2D animated classic 'Loin King' re-released in theaters not too long ago. It was so spectacular on a massive screen with the surround sound. Damn.. I miss Disney's 2D films

But a remake should NEVER be shot for shot.

What are the "many good changes" that Aladdin did?

hindu_frappe *ding ding ding* You took it right out of my mouth!

hindu_frappe or people enjoy them.

Actually, the audience score on rotten tomatoes is good, it’s nearly 90%

Actually there are a few live action sequels/reboots that were okay in my opinion

hindu_frappe pretty much with the transformers movies just like bay said no matter what you’ll still go see them.

3 circles aka the mark of the beast

@@chiefkeef74 that seems incorrect. But are you familiar with markings and depictions of the Beast? Of the anti-Christ?

@@vidmasterK1 Depends, is the number upside down?

@@ZorotheGallade I don't know much. That's why I'm asking Spermy for confirmation.

@Michael Fort - I too enjoyed Epic Rap Battles of History.

Damn! I may not be a fan of Artemis Fowl or read any of the books, but even I was disappointed by how the final film turned out.

TheGamerAdmin OR a crappy 3d one

Or animate it anyway and still call it Live action. *cough*

But that’s effort

@@TheDCbiz that is unfortunately the motto of many big name companies: make as much money as possible with as little effort as possible

Jungle books getting a squeal

It's funny how Disney STILL acts like it's struggling to stay afloat

After seeing the live action Aladdin this past tuesday, That was the first thought that crossed my mind. A live action "Return of Jafar" would be amazing and it could still be done even with the way the movie ended.

@marianne mccrank Tired of them too! I want new things. Please Disney, give us something new and totally original for a change! Also please, please for the love of everything decent in this world don't remake Lilo & Stitch. Stitch will look horrible in live-action and he's supposed to be cute and fluffy! Besides, that movie's perfect the way it is. No need to fix. Everything about that movie is great!

Disney actually is planning a remake of Black Cauldron. I'm quite excited for it because I hated the original and this is their chance to turn it into a good movie.

Because no one care about it.

"lesser known" you're jut solved your question to why

And Treasure Planet or A Bugs Life

The thing is that Lion King 2 was more of a love story while the original was a coming-of-age story. Therefore, that is why Lion King 2 focused a lot more on Kiara and Kovu's romance throughout the film given how crucial it was towards the plot while in the first movie, Simba and Nala's romance was more of side element but you still buy their genuine chemistry and that they were childhood friends (which we also got to see during the first half of the film).

Lauren210 Wholly disagree with Nala and Simba having chemistry. They HATED the idea of being married when they were kids, then they happen to find each other, act like FRIENDS again because that's what they were, and then they just happen to have a montage song and they're like "All right let's fuck".

Thank you!!! I always thought it came out of nowhere.

I love how he complains about the movie being a scene for scene and line for line copy of the original, but aparently the live action version was different? Wtf?

Such an overly-broad brainlet statement.

Why is that though? How could they not have any new, fresh ideas? I mean I myself have ideas that I would like to somehow get out there... How is it I have all of these ideas swimming around in my head when none of these professional movie makers do?

@@TheVanishing87 Simple, the executives don't want to take risks; the companies want quick and easy money.

@@TheVanishing87 A lot of people have ideas, few people have good ideas, and even fewer can make something worthwhile out of their good ideas. You can have a simple premise for a movie, but to get a quality script out of that is something else entirely. And maybe your ideas aren't as great as you think

Leo B I assure you my ideas are at least more creative than these boring Disney remakes. I’m confident someone somewhere would like my ideas. I already started working on one of them.

the plot reminds me of a mix of Hook. if you watched that movie you would know why.

Thank you for acknowledging that Christopher Robin is deserving of viewing, dare I say even owning. Out of all the shitty remakes Disney has spewed out in recent times, that is the only one worth it, IMO.

@@eagletrigger your welcome

You're right, but it flopped. It's safe to say that Disney isn't too inclined to try that again. Aladdin did surprise me, but although it was very similar, dialogue and plot points changed. Out of all of the live action remakes, I enjoyed Cinderella and Aladdin the most.

It flopped because it was nightmare fuel. If they had put some fucking effort into the CGI and didnt make all of the stuffed animals terrifyingly uncanny, I assure you it would have been received better.

Technically they rebooted him but true.

So true what were they thinking trying to remake classics just for the money?

I love that you used an US reference and that it made perfect sense. When watching Lion King, I felt so hollow watching it and now I know why. It lacked the soul of the original.

@@Epodmusic17 yeah I was so hyped for it and then I was like eh it's okay but it won't ever compare to the original I did love how they made the hyenas more intelligent like they are in real life

U can't make a valid point with something as vague or abstract as a "soul"

god now you have giving me a new version of jordan peeles us where every animated characters is getting stalk and kill by his tethered version, with snowhite tethered as the leader with Lupita Nyong'os creppy voice... I DEMAND A PARODY OF THAT!!

Pixar is also owned by Disney...

Lol Pixar is in the same boat. Look at all the Cars sequels, finding dory, incredibles 2, etc, that all came out decades after the original just to cash in

@@robertayotte4843 Incredibles 2 was actually good though. Not completely on the same level as the original, but still pretty good.

britipinojeff I don’t see how it’s good when it just reminds me of a swapped version of the first film with Bob staying at home and Helen going out on adventures and adding some new people and situations.

@@unamed2516 I liked the new fights in the sequel. Getting the Incredibles to fight against other supers that had interesting abilities like Void were pretty cool. Bob staying at home with the kids was also pretty funny to me at least with the stuff with Jack Jack being the best part. The only thing wrong with Bob being at Home and Helen going off at least compared to the original is that in the original most of the family members were clearly going through their own internal struggles. With Bob wanting to be a hero again, Helen thinking Bob is cheating on her, and Violet and Dash's inner conflict with being super children. In the sequel it's just Bob being tired and still wanting to be a hero and Violet still having boy troubles.

The first two are RU-vid and Facebook. No idea about the third one. Is Audi the fourth one?

The third one is Messenger

Oh GOD!
