I’m honestly so tired of this kick we seem to be on to “correct” things from the past. They keeping reaching back to remake these shows and properties that did very well in their time, to update them for “modern audiences” and constantly rip on them like they were the worst things ever made, but now they can “fix” them. I’m also sick of these actors doing interviews now mocking the original content, basically laughing openly at it, as if that original movie isn’t the reason you currently have work right now.

It’s sad that Disney ruined so many franchises run by them because of messy writing and pointless politics . At this point, Disney might have no choice but to give ACTUALLY TALENTED writers, storytellers, and creators a chance…

I'm glad someone else is pointing out how Gadot is also on the "Snow White Don't Need No Man" bandwagon. It isn't just Zegler pushing that line.

The moment that…actress…who is playing Snow White said “cartoon” I was filled with anger. It was like she was stomping on all the sacrifices that Walt made to make Snow White and belittling him. Never have I seen such contempt for the source material. Also they’re shooting the Brothers Grimm in the back as well. I was friends with one of the great granddaughters of the Grimm’s. They’re icons of German literature. So this film is also a gut punch to German heritage. I mean did they cast any Germans for this picture?

How does Disney not understand the dwarves were already magical creatures? Dwarves were fantasy creatures in German folklore, and Snow White is a German fairy tale. And a notable feature of their design is how they have four fingers on each hand instead of 5, which is a telltale characteristic of the fae in many parts of Europe. They are similar to elves in this regard. Them also working as miners of precious metals is also a trait of the Germanic fantasy Dwarf. These people put in charge of these remakes know nothing about the content they're supposedly improving.

The fact that everyone knows who you're talking about whenever someone brings up the Evil Queen by itself tells me the original 1937 film is Timeless. Evil Queen is such a generic sounding title, but we still associate it with Snow White. That tells me a lot about the impact of the original film. It's more Timeless than this upcoming garbage will ever be.

The thing is that Disney is obsessed with fixing their old work, but there actually isn't anything to fix. They are still great to watch even to this day, it's just that the crazy people in Hollywood think that everything in the past is evil, and despite everybody telling them to stop, they just keep going.

They have lost more over the past years than just the plot of Snow White.

I always thought "fairest of them all" wasn't just about Snow White's looks but also about her kindness, she equaled the queen in appearance but it was her kindness that made her more beautiful

Zegler has so much hate in her heart i'm surprised she's not the one playing the Evil Queen

I have three daughters- 6, 9, and 10 years old- and I wish they got the Disney that I had in the 90’s. We went to go see the Little Mermaid remake and my 6 year old fell asleep before Ariel got her legs! And then when we saw the Mario movie, they all had a blast, and they’ve never even played a Mario game. I’m completely confused as to what Disney is actually trying to accomplish.

Changing the original snow white to the point where snow WHITE isn't white, the dwarfs aren't dwarfs and she's not awakened by the prince in the end has to be satire. If you think the OG is this offensive, don't remake it? I thought having a black ariel was fine but I laughed out loud when they had prince eric be adopted by a black woman. It's getting ridiculous.

Disney: We need to do something to make money and get people in movie seats, let's redo our most popular and well liked timeless works of art. Also Disney: Everything about the old movies are problematic and dumb, let's change them to be unrecognizable and lets not forget to have all the actors badmouth them to make sure the correct people know we are "Fixing" the movies.

I really feel like we need to sit these actors and actresses down and make them watch the og Disney movies so they can see how wrong they are about certain aspects of them and they can stop making assumptions based off what they heard from others.

Hearing the Snow White actress talk is what’s killing Hollywood and good storytelling overall. She’s definitely a narcissistic hero complex egomaniac, and all those talking points are a contributing factor to where we are now, and I pray that it stops.

"Bringing a new edge" is a buzzword for a quick cash grab technique on old IP. the real villain in Snow White is the Character's Egotism. The Evil Queen wants to kill Snow White so bad, her method becomes self-destruct in the end. That was a good contemplation for everyone.

Disney need new management and new stories and smart writers. And work with creative companies to make new ips like jump or Nintendo.

I dont want to be racist but changing Snow White's skin color is one of Disney's most audacious sins because her skin color really affect the story. It is their form of disrespect for classic works that have brought them success to date (especially this film is a pioneering film for Disney Princess). Having skin "as white as snow" is not just about Snow White being a white woman. It also has to do with the fact that she looks radiant and out of this world. What these writers and filmmakers working for Disney don't understand is that Snow White isn't just any ordinary beautiful girl. Her beauty is meant to be supernatural and on par to that of creatures of myth and legend, such as angels or the elves from Lord of the Rings. Arwen from the Peter Jackson films wasn't just some fair maiden. Her skin shimmered in the light as a way to express how her beauty is near divine, as befitting of her status as an elven highborn. Also my German friend ever said "As a german who grew up with the popular fairytale, this is sooo confusing lol. There is a psychological meaning behind why it's called SNOW WHITE and why it's so important that she is a super white pale person. It's not just about an ideal of beauty. It's about "de4th" and life, she symbolizes a woman who is oppressed by her mother and feels like de4d, trapped in a cage - a coffin. But the story tells us that even if you looked de4d or you feel de4d, you can be loved, you can become free. It's just something those disney writer do not wanna aknowledge. And that's super sad because those stories are not simply "funny children stories" but tales that were told over hundreds and hundreds of centuries in europe to give people hope." Dont use the voice as the reason. That is useless if the movie goes worldwide. Many countries dubbed movies in theaters. Well after all, we live in modern era. Anything can be done, the same as the voice problem. It's the same case as Emma Watson. Why Disney doesn’t hire a singer to dubbing an actor/actress who cant sing? This used to be incredibly common and could be easily done. The autotune is brutal. They also removed important characters like the 7 dwarves and the prince (actually Walt wanted to increase the prince's screen time and make him more important to the story but due to time and financial limitation, he was forced to do it as is. But then he got his revenge on Sleeping Beauty by giving Prince Philip a lot of involvement to the story and more screen time). I just hope that if they can't bring out the same character appearances then they can at least make improve the story. But after I saw the interview, maybe we can't expect much. Idk if they want to repeat the same mistake like what they did with Peter Pan & Wendy. Nah it's clearly intentional and they don't learn from their mistakes. The story now isnt about love or romance but about snow white become strong woman who doesn't depend herself on any men and want to become a strong leader. Again, I'm sick of this feminist agenda. No women are perfect if they're not a girlboss huh? Wanting romance and being gentle is not a weakness. Hollywood today seems to think changing feminine characters to be more aggressive is not feminism. It's one thing when the men becomes less central. It's another when they make the female character have no flaws or weaknesses and give the male characters no strengths. Also the most ironic thing is that Walt Disney actually wanted to increase the prince's screen time and make him more important to the story but due to time and financial limitation, he was forced to do it as is. But then he got his revenge on Sleeping Beauty by giving Prince Philip a lot of involvement to the story and more screen time. This really shows that current Disney writers don't even care about the company founder himself because they don't actualize what the original creator desires. Rachel even said that the Prince is stalker. Walt Disney is rolling his grave. His first ever film. One of the most revolutionary movies ever made. I usually just ignore these remakes, but this is where I draw the line. This is straight up unforgivable. "Snow White" was the one movie Walt was the most protective of. When he discovered a group working on a sequel, he fired them, because he didn't want this movie touched in any way. The set burning down should've been a sign of Walt's anger from beyond. I know it shows that this is the worst decade of Hollywood and it's sad because this wasn't just some old movie it was art and it's the same as re-doing a famous painting and calling it better when it's clearly worse. Over 86 years ago, we have beloved animated classic that inspired by fairy tale, good written original story, memorable characters, and all of them being made for entertainment purpose. Now here's what we get, they all be rehashed with political agenda and woke push. Well, again, if this isn't about representation or political propaganda or whatever it is then this is just a form of laziness in presenting stories. They are lack of creativity in making stories, they end up taking the short and dumb way by ruining many people's childhoods. They take what is already there and has been successful and then change it for marketing gimmick so that many people are interested instead of making new story (but their recent original movies was also a flop too). The movie can only profit because it's just nostalgia bait for the fans. I'm sure that if the original film wasn't as successful as it used to be, then this live action film would have sunk. It’s sad that hollywood movies now exploit diversity to make profit.

I'll admit that the old Disney films had elements, scenes, and characters that didn't age well, but "fixing" them with these films is like getting rid of a spider in your room with a stick of dynamite

I agree with expanding on Snow White and the prince’s relationship, as well as developing his character. When I rewatched the movie, I noted that the Evil Queen’s tome explicitly mentioned True Love’s kiss, so I thought it would interesting if the prince also studied magic like she did and THAT’S why he kissed her.

I feel like they shitting on the original, and saying we can do it better. Instead respecting the original and understanding why people love the movie.

And Zegler saying the prince stalks Snow White, what’s that based on? Cause he sang to her when she was on a balcony, that’s stalking?

Sucks to be Hollywood right now. They got themselves into this now it's probably too late to dig themselves out of it

"Step aside, Old Man, make room for Mary Sue!"

Remakes and reboots MUST always be made out of love or respect, it never works if you're making them out of hatred or spite, even Tim Burton who invented the phrase "reimagining" and created a completely different Planet of the Apes movie, still have respect to the original film, he wasn't trying to "fix" it, he just want to tell his own story by borrowing the original concept and setting

This Is Modern Disney were talking about, when did they ever cared for any "plots"! The only thing Is to do Is let Oswald be the permanent star again to fix things fir the better before Mickey goes to public domain for good!

TBH I am actually ROOTING for Disney to make more decisions like this... NOT for the sake of the Employees directly, but because it will ensure that The One-World-Government like Monopoly Disney's Higher Up Executives had over the Animation Industry finally falls apart

Snow White a beautiful, classic work of art. Hand crafted by hundreds of artists lead by Disney himself at great personal cost into a cherished, beloved masterpiece that has stood the test of time for generations of young children. It infuriated me to see that interview with the current actress claiming it was being fixed...

I'm gonna give the movie the benefit of the doubt and assume the Evil Queen doesn't understand what the mirror is actually saying when he describes Snow White as the "fairest of them all" and thinks it's referring to her physical beauty. That could actually make for some interesting character development for the Evil Queen, if she was so vain and self-absorbed, she literally could not fathom the idea of fairness meaning any anything other than beauty, the idea wouldn't have even crossed her mind. And because that's interesting, you know they're not gonna do it.

At this point Mirror Mirror (a comedic take on Snow White) is a far more accurate and faithful adaptation than whatever garbage Disney is making now.

For me, The MCU has become the movie equivalent of the 2nd wave of Glam Metal. By that I mean with bands back in the late 80s and early 90s it was all about what they looked like, how many parties they had, how many girls they could pull after a show, and how many love ballads they wrote, and it was oversaturated to the point of exhaustion. With the MCU, it’s now all about the fan service, the crossovers from other universes, how many awful jokes they can shoehorn in, and the setups for more, and it's oversaturated to the point of exhaustion.

Hearing what the actress said about the original film really shows you how out of touch these Hollywood types are. The original film was extremely groundbreaking.

I read alot of books based on fairy tales, like Snow White or Little Mermaid. And the writers at least pay homage and respect to the source material. Disney just spits on both the original tales and the original movies.....

A former colleague of Iger once remarked that “he’s lost his soul.” Given that a fish rots from the head, it’s no surprise that the company Iger runs, Disney, has likewise lost its soul.

It’s sad that they don’t even understand their own properties.

There is nothing wrong with the original Snow White. It's a fairy tale that has endured for many generations. The main character is not demeaning or belittling to women, at all. Quite the contrary. Disney used to honor these timeless stories. They did remove the more horrific aspects, anyone who's read the original Snow White knows what I'm talking about. But the message remained the same. I think you're spot on in your analysis. If they dislike Snow White so much, why make the movie at all?

Disney cares more about wanting to win social "brownie points",creating controversy and sacrificing competent writing skills along the way. Disney loves the idea of movies and that's doing a lot more harm than good

Changing the definition of "Fairest of them all" is so dumb, because like you said, the importance of Snow White's beauty is based solely on the Evil Queen's arrogance and vanity. Making it about how "Just" and "True" of a leader she can be has no value because if the Evil Queen cared about such things, she wouldn't be the *Evil* Queen. And yeah, self loathing is the only thing that makes any sense here, because if you watch any of the animated princess films they keep trying to remake, they aren't nearly as problematic as they seem to think. Not to say they're perfect, but nothing is

I agree with J: if s many of these old movies are so dated and Disney wants so badly to do new things, then why not just make original stories and stop trying to remake the classics? Especially if all they're going to do is find fault with them.

The underlying story of these stories that end in true love's kiss is 'True love can conquer anything, even the deadliest of spells'... Once Upon a Time did a really great job of retelling the story of Snow White... They made her a total badass, but also kept her other good qualities, like being humble, kind, and caring... Snow was never afraid to say that she needed help... That's how you write a modern Snow White... Not this shit...

I can’t help but also be miffed at them completely forgoing any mention of Snow White being 14? She’s literally a child. Why does she need to be a figure that models bravery and being proactive??

For someone that’s genuinely excited for zootopia 2 I honestly just want it delayed indefinitely until a shift happens for the better. No sequel is better than a bad sequel

Tangled was released in 2010 and Hunchback of Notre Dame was cancelled because Bob Iger just doesn't like that movie (asinine reason but whatever) Also, Ginner Goodwin in the show "Once Upon A Time" is a better live-action Snow White than what Rachel Zegler could ever be

At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised Rachel is trying to get people to hate watch this

The state of Disney honestly makes me sad.

This is the remake that has pissed me off the most. By making so many changes to the film, it basically spits on Disney's history and in a sense, spits on Walt's legacy. He worked so damn hard to prove the industry wrong and he ended up creating a whole new crossroad for cinema! If this is the route the remakes are going, they really should just be canceled before it ruins the company forever.

I used to love Disney, I grew up on their animated movies. Now? I say let them rot.

The fact that Kevin Feige pretty much admitted "the Marvels" will be more of the same hokey comedy we've been seeing for years now. They never learn from their mistakes, only blame the fans for not liking it.

I feel like mirror mirror as a Snow White adaptation had a good balance of a modern interpretation while keeping the spirit or core of snow white I think I’ll go and watch it right now lol

I think the fact that they couldn't even get a real cat and made a CGI one to play Figaro in the Pinocchio live action adaptation last year goes to show you how little Disney cares about its legacy considering he was Walt's favorite character

My stomach hurt while watching this. I’m so sad that their 100th anniversary is their worst year. ;(

*SPOILER* Are you kidding me?! They made Rhodey a Skrull?! And he's been that way since Civil War?! He's one of my favorite side characters and they made him a Skrull last minute for cheap shock value?! This makes every emotional moment we went through with him meaningless because it wasn't even him! What were they thinking?????!!!!!!

Why can't actors act like they like the source material. All they ever do point out all the things wrong with it and all the things they are going to improve in their version. They act as if people are going to watch this for them, rather than because they're fans of the original. Why does evil queen care about being the fairest of them all, tell me that. Is it tied to her magic ? There's no need to change the meaning of it. Keep the story the same and flesh out the things that don't make sense to a modern audience.

The people behind current Disney hate their predecessors' success. They hate that what they detest is not only popular, but profitable, so they do this in arrogance, believing what they can "create" is infinitely better, only to fail consistently and thoroughly. Even in her interview, you can hear Rachel Zegler demand a ridiculous pay rate for a movie that isn't even out yet while wearing a dress, which she clearly sounds like she detested doing. Doesn't sound like someone who loves the character they played at all. Meanwhile, Ryan Reynolds, not only loved his role of Deadpool, but he took the damn costume with him after they were done filming. Which sounds like someone who genuinely loves the character they played and which one despises it? You tell me. People who love what they do and the properties they work with SHOW it through their work. You can not only see it, but FEEL the effort put in. These folks HATE these works, especially when they are still beloved while their own ideas are either hot garbage alone or bastardized retellings of those very works they're envious of. It's a clear case of the untrained student who thinks their way is the only way, unwittingly oblivious as to why their master's methods not only work, but necessary.

I think it's pretty sad when so many people who actually follow folklore and know the history of a company that they grew up with for years are shouted down by vain idiots who want to make the world as vapid and superficial as they are. It really makes fans feel like their loyalty and attention to detail is worthless, and that feeling in turn makes something that they invested in lose all meaning.

Is Disney like terrified of Prince Charmings and true love’s first kiss now? The only reason why Snow White woke up in the first place was because she loved her prince. Isn’t that consensual enough? Even if she didn’t wake up due to the kiss it still would be consensual because he tried to save her but isn’t her true love. I also don’t get it. Isn’t The Evil Queen supposed to be pure evil? Why should she be just? Wouldn’t it make sense if Snow White was the one who became that way? I get that everyone is beautiful but the thing here is there are psychotic people in this world who only care about beauty and not the inside. It’s not just made up. Honestly, I feel bad for Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot. It’s very obvious that by now everyone that is involved with these Disney live action remakes are saying the things that they are saying just because Disney tells them too or else they’d be in big trouble. If I’m wrong please let me know but I can’t deny that it has become quite a sickening pattern.😞😢

I really want to see what they replace the “mirror, mirror, on the wall” line with.

Honestly, the concept of ‘fairest of them all’ meaning who is more fit for the thrown could actually be a really interesting interpretation. Do I trust current Disney to handle it well? Lol no.

Queen: Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the fairest (as in the most just) of them all? Mirror: Greta Thunberg Queen: *yeets mirror out the window*

Does anyone else found funny that the new "Snow white and the seven dwarfs" doesn't have dwarfs nor a character white as snow?

Slandering the movie that put Disney on the map to hype up the new version is certainly a choice. It’s honestly hilarious that Snow White and The Huntsman will most likely be the far superior live action remake.

Why can't the New Snow White have her and the prince ended up saving each other either psychically or emotionally. Have them guide each other?

So my brother dates/is about to marry a Disney-Adult, and she will not say 1 bad thing about Disney. She loves/watches most of what they put out, except for the MARVEL stuff bc she just doesn't jive with superheroes, and at face-value you just see a dedicated consumer. The interesting thing though, is that if you talk to her about it, she kind of just clams up. She doesn't have anything good to say about most of it; certainly nothing critically positive, and so after just some basic "oh yeah, it was so good," she's got nothing to say about it. That was until the live-action Leo & Stitch movie was announced. She loves the original L&S; it's her personal favorite movie. With the live-action announcement, she basically just doesn't talk about it. She's clearly upset, from the face she makes whenever it comes up, but she's so dedicated to not smack-talking Disney that she just goes quiet and shrugs and does all sorts of other non-committal, but not positive responses. It's actually pretty bizarre to watch.

What makes this even more horrible is that Snow White was Disney’s first princess and movie ever, how the HECK did they mess THAT up?

A big problem is that younger adults have been "taught" that "old automatically equals bad" so Disney have been making unfortunate changes to movies (to appease and invite these people) that result in worse movies. Don't get me wrong, there are also other reasons why Disney are going downhill. However when we stop preaching/believing that we (current people) are automatically smarter/better than everything, every-one and every idea before us then perhaps we can create good movie remakes (if we must). Although perhaps every franchise will be destroyed by the current writers before people learn a different message. As a sidenote, the only remakes that I might be interested in would be a live-action "Team America: World Police" or a muppetised "Gladiator," for the novelty at least. If we ever get a muppetised "Gladiator" (it will never happen), I hope that it would be the theatrical version. The extended version is much, much worse...

In acting class they told me I could never be Belle from Beauty and the Beast because well...I have a big nose and darker skin tone and I'm not a beauty at all. I was pretty sad but...fair enough, I guess. I do not look the part. But then, when they announced Zegler as Snow White or even Bailey as Ariel, they kept talking about how good of a choice they were and how they couldn't have cast a better person. Needless to say, I'm still pretty furious about the double standard.

At this point I don't think that Disney can be saved. Every new series, show, movie they make just looks bad. Yes both in CGI AND what they do characters and story. So, at a point, a fan just walks off and stops watching. Even IF Disney makes a GOOD show.. even IF... with the damage they already have done who will trust them enough to watch it?

I'm gonna be perfectly clear here. the "fairest of them all" part being changed is a VERY AMERICAN viewpoint. Beauty as a monarch is an important quality, as you are the face of and representative of the country as a whole, that's why you never see a Royal in anything but full makeup/sytled hair and a suit/dress while in public. They have an image they're trying to convey and they are meant to show the best they can for the world to see as they're the "image" of the country. America doesn't get that anymore, Snow White had a beautiful singing voice, flawless hair, flawless skin, a grace of movement that was natural to her. That's why the Evil Queen wanted her dead, the moment she became a young lady and could begin assuming the authority she was always destined to become, she was a threat to the trained and very controlled queen. Also as a Royal Line requires heirs, a Queen would need to be married to cement that line and have a Prince Consort or a King with them. Again, America is so divorced from the world of this kind of thinking now that they don't equate it with anything except outwards appearance and physical beauty. But no one has asked how the Evil Queen was fairest of them all before Snow White was noticed as she isn't beautiful, she's harsh and very angular compared to her counterpart, it's because the fairest was in how she presented herself, how she acted and reacted in public that made her that. This is what you get though when you remove all historical culture from a country and leave it to fester in a mire of constantly shifting idealism.

I guess they turned it into a tragedy now, as she would remain dead without the kiss of true love. Or is she going to Rey Skywalker herself back to life?

Great video!! Too bad you can't go to Disney and explain their own movies to them!

Good god

Didn't we already have this snow white story? Didn't they pull this with princess Jasmine? Once upon a time?And I think there's a Maid Marian show or movie that did this too. My issue with all of these changes with the Disney live action movies is that they truly aren't adding anything unique. Just like I pointed out above a lot of these "corrections" they are bragging about have been done before. And often they miss out on essential plot points by changing them as seen with the fight in a little mermaid, why Cinderella wasn't so strong and independent, and just about everything with Mulan. They are trying so hard to pull off what Ever After did by giving a character more agency without shitting on the source whose coattails they forget they are riding on.

That interview just hurt my soul. She's not going to be dreaming about true love. As if love is a bad thing. We are heading towards a world where love is dead and everybody is encouraged to only care about themself. Aka a world filled with narcissistic selfish people. Just look at how many adults are single right now and that number is only going up. Also I might be misremembering the movie but wasen't Snowwhite saved by the dwarfs? Sure the prince "kissed her awake" but it was the dwarfs that chased off the evil queen to her demise right?

I think that this is just a dark time Disney goes through this around every 10 years we had the golden age then the package era than the silver age then the dark age then the rennicance then the post rennicance then the second rennicance and know we are here so it is just normal for the company

You could argue that it was a purposeful play on the two meanings of "fairest" where the queen was using one definition while the mirror was working by both, and chose Snow not only because she was beautiful but because she was exceedingly kind.

You’re very quickly becoming one of my favourite KZfaqrs. ♥️

One needs a SIGNIFICANT amount of TRAINING, and ideally, EXPERIENCE, to be a good leader. "Innocence" and "purity of thought" may be ideal, but like too many ideals, are UNREALISTIC and IMPOSSIBLE TO IMPLEMENT or ENFORCE. In short, Snow White practically has NO CHANCE to be a good leader, due to the aforementioned lack of training and experience. In all likelihood, "Queen" Snow White will become as evil as her stepmother.

Between changing their stories (not even checking to see if their kneejerk assumptions about them are correct) and making legacy characters sad in their old age, I think Disney and those behind its productions have this complete hatred for their past and want to destroy it- if not tweak it to their politically-motivated liking, forgetting what made their work so good in the first place.

Thank you for telling it like it is J

The actors mouthing off in interviews are in some bizarre social bubble, repeating the prevailing talking points like they are so wise and original. It’s weird none of them ever seem to notice how negative and intolerant their views are, when they see themselves as the liberal good guys who care about women being valued in our society. Now you have to be a powerful girl boss ruling over something to be valued. They are imposing their views of what a woman should be, just like “the patriarchy” has done to women forever.

I want Wish to be a good movie. It just seems like all of this bad content could make expectations unrealistic.

I am curious how Disney is going to translate the word fairest in the dubs. No idea about other languages, but I am pretty sure the Grimms version of evil queen-lady literally asks about who is the most beautiful in all of the land and all three german dubs of Snow White stuck to that. Whatever they insert there, it will feel like they used a crowbar that fits neither Disney nor fairytale.

I have seen two Disney films since 2020 in the movie theater; "Onward" and "The Haunted Mansion". I enjoyed both of these films, but nothing else being offered by Disney has had any appeal to me. I may have gone to see the Buzz Lightyear film, if it had been based on the TV series "Buzz Lightyear of Star Command", but what I found out what the film was, it just didn't seem like a film I'd want to see.

The Dr. Strange MoM writers didn't watch Dr. Strange #1 either because in the first film they talk about traveling the Multiverse but in the sequel they act like it's pretty impossible

The thing about selling Disney is given how upside down they are as a whole who's gonna buy them?

The only live action that I've seen that does great with the Snow White's story is Mirror, Mirror (2012). Snow sees what does the greed and cruel Queen does to the people, has meet the prince before she ran, the dwarves are actually short people without a job due to the queen which makes them thieves to survive. And in helping them (7 dwarves) be heroes in the village eyes, they help her get back at the queen while helping the people. I highly recommend this and it does have its funny moments.

Back in the 80's and 90's I remember Disney used to put out 1 animated feature a year. It was an event that everyone was excited to wait for - the quality used to matter the most. Even their live action movies had to meet certain standards. Now Disney reminds me of some cheap assembly line trying to churn out the most product -oh, and the woker the better in their opinion.

This is why Disney REALLY needs to stop these remakes. I know Disney just wants to re-invigorate the cycle of controversy with their live-action Snow White remake since the Little Mermaid remake is pretty much irrelevant now. But quite frankly, I’m fed up with this attitude these people have been showing to the animated Disney classics. Yeah, they weren’t perfect, and certain elements didn’t age well. But seeing so many young people constantly shitting on animated Disney movies and acting like they’re Nazi crimes against humanity really pisses me off. Admittedly, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs isn’t one of my favorite Disney movies. The story is very basic. Snow White is a mostly passive character with a dated design and animation style. In fact, the dwarfs are really the only characters with actual personality. But it was the very first feature-length animated movie, particularly the first one from Disney, and Walt Disney went to great painstaking lengths to make it happen. This is the movie that set Disney on the course to becoming an entertainment powerhouse. Snow White may not have the most interesting story or characters of the Disney canon, but I do appreciate the artistry of it. I certainly understand and appreciate the impact that Snow White had on animation and cinema. And I will defend it from narrow-minded fools who consider it a heinous atrocity that shouldn’t be allowed to exist just because it was created before modern social standards. The original animated Snow White made a fortune at the box office back in the day and is still seen as the definitive adaptation of the classic Brothers Grimm story. Meanwhile, I predict this live-action remake will fail to make its money back and be quickly forgotten and irrelevant a month or two after its release (just like all of the other Disney remakes have).

Enchanted, Mirror Mirror, and Snow White and the Huntsman were all made recently. This isn’t going to be the fresh take they think they’re making. They could have done something closer to the Grimms version and it would be more original.

The newest rumor out today now Tangled getting the live action treatment... Disney get some help and stop.

Imagine thinking that the prince in Snow White was some anti-feminist character when he basically was a plot device the entire time. His presence in the beginning was to bring attention to the queen’s jealousy of her younger and more beautiful daughter. At the end of the film, he just showed up at the end. The truth saviors were the seven dwarves that risked their lives to hunt down the evil witch after she’d poisoned Snow. These mischaracterizations of Disney princes (and more importantly, of the princesses) are really concerning. They’re not a bunch of damsels in distress just sitting around for a prince to save them. And it’s upsetting that people just seem them as that.

Poor Walt. The poor man is just rolling in his grave and keep sleep peacefully.

I still have the original VHS movie in it's thick plastic case. Along with Lion King, Beauty and the beast, Hercules, ect. I'm going to grab them all and have a marathon on the remakes opening day. Disney lost the magic and became exactly what Walt was against.

They have almost made monsters of "their" own work and feel the need to slay the wickedness of these classic movies. The fact that Gal Gadot and Snow White's actress almost repeat exactly what they think about the original Disney film and what they are trying to accomplish with this DOA rendition, makes it all feel all the more artificial and soulless. Disney is rotted from the inside out. Their terminal and won't course correct. They must be brought back down to earth before they get their heads out their collective asses and actually make worth while stories and if doing adaptation, ls respecting the source material. The current regime seems incapable of that are doomed to drag themselves and all associated with them down. They will reap what they sow and I don't feel bad them and Hollywood in general.

When it comes to MCU I think it should have been focused more on one arc. My problem with the MCU is too many plot points. The Multi-verse, Time travel, the introduction of too many characters like it's all over the place. The only good thing that turned a profit was no way home that explained everything better than anything. and that wasn't even made by DISNEY. that was sony who want literally NOTHING to do with disney in the first place and i can't blame them. Sony explained The multiverse and introduced new and old characters in both Into and Across the spider-verse without it feeling disjointed and in comprehensive. It also had characters that are not only relatable but are likable and you feel for their emotion and the amount of responsibility each one has. In my opinion Disney should have left Kang the conqueror stuff and instead done a venom arc, maybe something like this: after the events of no way home venom is unleashed kicking off the fantastic four and then building both of these heroes up to secret wars where venom and spidey meet. then the suit bonds, reed tells him the suit is alien and is not safe, something happens where venom gets unleashed and hates spidey, venom goes to new york and both heroes and villiains are infected by the symbiote causing spidey to team up with the fantastic four and defeat venom. don't know if it's good or not but it's better than half the stuff in she-hulk i can tell you that much.

Is the story with the live-action remake similar to what Snow White and the Huntsman did? Where Snow White herself grew to become a leader? Granted it's been years since I've seen that film, plus there was Mirror Mirror with Nathan Lane. Not to mention Red Shoes and the Seven Dwarfs which came out in 2019, I think it was

Snow White was an empowered woman who took charge over the Seven Dwarfs and her gratitude to them by cooking and cleaning. Ziegler really doesn't know anything about the movie and made herself look like a fool as she badmouths the very movie that put Disney on the map. It's a slap in the face for both of them

Can't a person both dream of true love and work towards being a just ruler of their people? Also being saved by Prince Florian is one of the key plot points of the story. If you dislike one of the major parts of the story, why are you working on it? Why not create something original? It is z whimsical fairy tale. Not a neo noir drama. Lion king is based on Hamlet but is something completely different. Frozen is from The Snow Queen but ignores large parts of it to tell a separate tale. Deviation is allowed but don't spit on what build your empire.

They had to remove the "fairest of them all" referring to beauty because there's no audience who could suspend their disbelief of Gal Gadot being jealous of Rachel Zegler in the looks department.

Mirror mirror continues to be the best snow white film
