Disney used to touch our hearts, now they touch us inappropriately.

As a European, I am deeply offended by Disney's systematic purge of Europeans from their own folklore. Are we not good enough to star in our own folk stories?

They don’t understand how beautiful and magical the romances were in the originals for both boys and girls. It wasn’t about anything other than love and the power of it

3:34 I love how Gal Gadot is looking off at a distance and thinking how this young actress in front of her is literally ruining her career with disney....classic.

As a German, I have to say that no matter how hard you butchered the pronouncing of that text passage, Disney butchered the fairy tale much, much worse. Can I scream cultural appropriation at them now? They like that term, don't they?

I loved the part where the Evil Queen and Snow White came together and agreed that beauty is a social construct and lived happily ever after

Why is Peter Dinklage offended about dwarves being played in Snow White (and the 7 dwarves) when he had no problem playing dwarf in GoT?

Somebody once said "Just because you have new paint, does that mean you repaint the Mona Lisa?" and I think that is the most accurate way to describe these remakes. Changing classic movies to conform to modernistic ideologies is dumb because it is like trying to gloss over history to a point where history is unrecognizable. Not all past history is great but you have to still acknowledge that *it exists* regardless of how modern audiences look back on it now. The original Snow White is a timeless masterpiece because it is itself a part of history and history is reflected in it.

What a noble man Peter Dinklage is. Helping those little actors to stay unemployed so they can preserve their dignity. What a guy.

The more money Disney loses the happier I become!

I got to say I'm getting super tired of these outspoken actors and actresses acting like their opinions matter more because of their occupation. These people are so similar to the people they hate and they dont even see it.

I would totally understand them changing the prince’s kiss, at least adding a line of dialogue from said prince asking a dwarf “what happened?” And the dwarf says something like “it’s a curse, only true loves kiss can wake her” or something like that, because it is admittedly a little weird that a dude sees a corpse and thinks “ya time to smooch” but that’s a simple and quick solution that doesn’t affect the story in any negative way

Imagine having Gal freaking Gadot as your main villain whose motivation comes from jealousy of another woman’s beauty

Snow white is literally called snow white because her skin is pastier than a british vampire. Casting an actor who isn’t white doesn’t make any sense.

My problem with the casting of Rachel Zegler isn’t only that she isn’t “snow white” as the titular character has been very specifically described, but also how could anyone deem her more beautiful than Gal Gadot? That was the premise of the tale - the Queen’s jealousy drove her to want Snow White dead. I can’t imagine someone who looks like Gal Gadot being jealous of or insecure about Rachel Zegler who’s pretty enough (when she isn’t making the oddest faces) but not by any stretch a great beauty.

Disney deserves what they get. "CANCELLED". The garbage has to stop. Loved Snow White as a child. She was loved and protected by MEN.

I just loved the part in Snow White when she sued the prince for sexual harassment after he kissed her without her permission

Disney literally cut 21 dwarves from finding substantial work: 7 cast members, 7 stand-ins, and 7 stunt doubles. Those roles would have been huge for them

Me and the boys on our way to watch 'Off-White and The Seven Minorities'

The end of Disney is coming.

I love how they took regular actors to play the dwarves but fully ignored dwarfs actors. This is real inclusion 🤣🤣🤣

Ironically, Gal Gadot looked more like Snow White than the actress they got to play Snow White. Edit 1: Apparently I have to clarify to many invertebrate jellies that what I mean by this comment, is that based on the physical description of Snow White, Gadot looked more like Snow White than Rachel did.

Holy f-.. I hate this. Can't these people mess up their own ideas/ creations? Why mess up ours?

If they tried SO hard not to offend certain people, then why are the offending Europeans

I get more entertainment from watching a drunk Scotsman skewer Disney than I do from their actual movies.

The German language being spoken in a thick Scottish accent might be the single most terrifying way to convey the spoken word

Snow white was one of the 1st Disney movies I’ve watched in VHS and it’s also one of my all time favourites . It just breaks my heart what they’re doing with the live action. I’m not happy they casted a latina to play her (I’m peruvian btw), snow white is supposed to be white as snow, I would’ve prefer if they made a new princess, a latina, with a different story. Disney is not what it used to be anymore 😔😔😔

As a German from the very area where Snow White comes from, I am saddened and offended at the degradation of the 1937 movie which was quite close to the original storyline (true the prince did not wake her with a kiss but he was there and he was in love with her). Zegler exhibits a level of smugness that is unbecoming of an actor staring in a movie that has delighted generations and is very justly considered a classic precisely because its values transcend the vicissitudes of time rather than being a product of a fleeting presence. Since when is celebrating the enduring and redeeming power of true love outdated. This new movie is cultural approbation and above all defamation

I’m black and from the Caribbean and I’m always angered that they constantly put us in European stories and expect us to get on our knees and thank them…. Don’t get me wrong, there are black people that don’t share my sentiment. These people believe that the movie studios actually care about us😂😂😂…… No! All they care about is trying to make more money…… if they Disney really cared about us, they would make original content based on our stories. But it seems that the only black stories they know are slave stories and that doesn’t fit Disney’s happy agenda. So they slop us into recycled European stories. But, if they were a little less racist they would find that there are literally hundreds of happy black or African stories that everyone can relate to. If they did that, I think people would not have a problem with diversity in movies.

The protagonist is no different than the villan if she only thinks about herself.

This is a sad issue It'll never be enough. Bye Disney

"Almost White and the seven minorities"

Disney has replaced "happily ever after" with "miserable forever more".

I remember my grandmother saying to me, "I don't care what they tell you in school, Snow White was Colombian!"

I guess Rapunzel live action would be bald.

We've had the writers strike We got the actor's strike Now we need the viewer's strike to finally hammer in the final nail in Hollywood's coffin

At this point, the “strong female character who needs no men” trope is no longer hilariously bad. It’s just plain bad.

One thing I'll say is that I always thought Snow White had a weird looking face, fore head too big, eyes too low and too far apart and they're not slanted cat eyes like most girls have. And they really managed to find an actress that looks just as weird, she looks like a carp.

Warioware Move It already spoilt the ending for live action Snow White, she shits out the apple.

My mom was born in a tiny village in Mexico, she use to LOVE Snow White , that was her favorite movie as a kid and when I showed her this she said it was the most humiliating thing she’s ever seen , funny how she related to a princess without having to be the same color as her, Disney got it all backwards

I've already seen people call this 'Off-white and the 7 diversity hires' and I think that's fucking hillarious and also ture lol.

"Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" is deeply rooted in German folklore, having been popularized by the Brothers Grimm in the 19th century. This story, known in its original German as "Schneewittchen," is a treasure from the rich tapestry of European folk traditions. Stripping it of its origins and heritage would be akin to removing the essence of its cultural context. The characters, settings, and motifs are intrinsically European, reflecting the environment, values, and beliefs of the time and place from which they emerged. To reimagine them outside of this context would not only dilute the story's historical and cultural significance but also fail to honor the authenticity of the narrative that has captivated audiences for centuries.

I’m almost 30, so I remember VHS tapes on the CRT TV sitting on top of the fridge at daycare at this old ladies house. She was a Disney fanatic. Owned all the tapes and books and plushies and the whole 9 yards. Would go to the Grand Floridian once a year every year for an extended vacation. She would boil us hot dogs for lunch and would play the tapes on the TV (it was on top of the fridge so no one could reach up to touch it lol). I remember the commercials on TV for the “Disney Vault Collection” and they would only release and sell VHS in limited runs at a time, or at least that’s how I remember it, but the Vault was a real thing. All this backstory to say, once absolutely every Disney property has a live action remake, I imagine Disney putting ABSOLUTELY EVERY ANIMATED CLASSIC back into the “Vault”, no longer available for the public to see. That’s my guess. I only saw the first Avengers and the first of the 3 new Star Wars Trilogy, and knew it wasn’t like the stuff I saw as a kid. So I stopped watching anything Disney a while ago. I still read the news and all that, but wow everything fell apart.

Snow White was Disney's first full-length movie, and this version looks to be one of their last. It's almost poetic in its level of hubris.

Imagine having the original be the highest grossing animated feature of all time, and the re-make being the feature having the highest loss of all time. That would be something.

In this crazy world, we need a movie filled with love, loyalty, trust and, romance.

That classic cartoon is untouchable..you can't top that

So they’re ok with Snow White being race swapped when her skin color is in her literal name, but when Disney revealed the casting for Lilo and Stitch live action, the woke mob complained that the actress playing Nani is “too white” for the role, even though she is still a legitimate Hawaiian woman? What do they think, that everyone who is not European is black? So why is Nani’s skin so important but Snow White, who’s physical appearance has been established in fairytales for centuries, can all of a sudden be ignored and altered because someone apparently can’t relate to her unless they look exactly like her.

I swear we have officially hit the point where the vast majority of fanfics have better writing than 97% of the stuff that’s canon these days. How did this get so many likes?

Disney destroying classic cartoons

I seriously hope this movie does so bad it goes down in the history books as the worst flop ever made.

The fact that they can't even give snow white of all movies the respect it deserves shows how far Disney has fallen.

Snow White is the complete antithesis to feminist Hollywood. It is a story which portrays a jealous, narcissistic, envious woman as evil and a kind woman who protects the small weak men as a hero. As a reward for her pureness of heart and resillience she is essentially rewarded by the ideal man and lives happily ever after. I bet the Evil Queen will be portrayed as a hero in this version.

They delayed the movie one year!!!!!!! Oh thank god for the human race.

How bad can a children's classic tale be ruined? Now we know. Good job ESG, DEI, and alphabet warriors. Stupid is supposed to hurt! $$$$$$ The universe has a strange way of righting wrongs.

It would be a symmetrical irony if this movie was the one to end Disney - just as the original one was the movie that started it all.

Well they replaced the seven woodland people with CGI dwarves.

“In less world dominating terms” dude I almost choked on my soup 😂😂😂

The way Gal Gadot wanted no part of what she was saying is VERY telling.

How inclusive of Disney to completely omit dwarf representation

She was not loved by her family. She deserved love in her life. That was her quest and destiny. It was sad that she was not loved and then it was happiness when she was loved.

Just say NO to Disney.

They'd make a Bambi movie and somehow manage to make the lead role into a moose for _diversity._

As a kid growing up in a post-soviet country, Disney books & movies were there to show me the power of dreams and creativity. We had rampant inflation, no jobs, poor pay, but damn, each time mom brought me a Disney book it was Christmas. I wanted to become an animator and work for Disney. I studied art, did everything. Now I'm an adult, do art for a living, but working for Disney is the last thing I wanna do! I wanna empower more indie creators and bring back originality. It's high time! EDIT: Thank you all for your encouragement! Let's all make cool stories! ❤

I will never spend a penny on Disney again........ ever.

If the 1937 version and the fairy tale with the prince, the white as a snow skin, the dwarves and the true love are so outdated, retrograde, offensive and unprogressive - why don't they create a completely new story with black princess, no prince, no dwarves and whatever which fits their agenda but not using the Snow white title. Why do they even bother to make a new version of something so "rotten to the core". Oh, because they want to use and abuse the popular name of the story to make millions of dollars. Such a nice cause.

Our girl Emily Blunt got it right when she said whenever she gets a script that says 'strong female lead' she chucks it straight in the bin.

Surprised Disney didn't rename it to "No White"

If Walt is actually frozen, when they wake him and he see’s what Disney has become he will more than likely kill himself or freeze himself again

No white as snow and no real dwarfs? It's a flop.

Hilarious that they’re basically saying: “we can’t make them little people, because ‘dwarf’ is offensive. Let’s make them look like circus freaks instead” That seems a bit more offensive to me

The dwarves were very positively portrayed in the original. Yes they were somewhat silly sometimes, but they took in and cared for a stranger, and demonstrated great bravery. In short they were heroes in the story just as much as Prince Charming.

How did Disney go so very bad, in the last years. Remember good films with Kurt Russell, or a Volkswagen Beatle, or a Dog named "Old Yelliw", several others ones in the 1960's to 1989's! Walt Disney must be Rolling over in His Grave!

I am European born and raised with H.C. Andersen's Stories, The Brothers Grimm stories and, funnily enough, quite a few Polish ones. One thing I would like to see in these strange American times where it seems that you try to make things that don't exist, by walking around in old fairy tales made over a hundred years ago. Why isn't a reformulation of American history being made? Afro Americans could play the evil colonists who hunted and killed the evil Indians here played by whites of course, while a strange colored woman who tells everyone else what is wrong with them. I would give money to see that story. No, if hollywood can't treat the old fairy tales properly, then it would suit them to come up with something new, they are so inventive and talented I can already feel the headache

I don't want Snow Brown! I want Snow White!!! Speaking as a 30 year old Mexican woman - I DON'T NEED TO BE REPRESENTED to feel included (I am more than the reduction of my identity to my ethnicity!). As a kid, I identified with the paled skinned girl because I wasn't comparing skin colours as a child, I identified with the character based on the love and kindness she offered to the animals and the dwarfs!

If disney want's to be inclusive, why aren't they making new, original movies for people of color??

If Disney were against racism, would they De-black their movie covers and scenes to "not offend" Chinese audiences? There's a lot of money to be made in China. But Disney, are YOU saying black people are offensive?

Gal Gadot was like, "ohh shut up kid, you don't want to embarrass yourself."

All the whimsy and lightheartedness of a fantasy world replaced with identity politics and a "modern edge". I cannot express how much hatred and contempt I have for modern Disney.

Let's all congratulate Dinklage for carving out a small piece of success for himself and then, in short order, pulling up the stepstool behind him. That's mighty big of you.

Haha completely agree that Disney seems to think that the character of a strong independent young woman who doesn't need a man is still really fresh and topical

Man that song at 4:04... Disney can say whatever the fuck they want, play that and you win the argument.

I am a German, and I say they are guilty of cultural appropriation.

I love it how Disney have found a way of keeping real dwarf actors out of the film under the guise of progressive, inclusive and modern filmmaking 😂

6:45 this image traumatized me

I think the funniest part is that Ziegler apparently never watched it, if she thinks the story and character were just focused on finding love. They weren't. Like at all. Snow White does fall in love with the prince early, but after the Queen tries to kill her, The love story disappears until the very end. The character isn't focused on it at all. She pretty much just makes a life with the dwarves. She isn't trying to get her life or her love back. She is befriending dwarves and animals and surviving....yes the end is the cliché (even back then it was a cliché) damsel in distress being saved by the prince and being whisked to a new perfect life because she was good and all loving. But the character wasn't striving for that. That was a reward for the character being a good kind loving person.

As a Nigerian who grew up reading Enid Blyton's books -Famous Five, Secret Seven, Wishing Chair Again, etc.- I cannot bear the decimation of the beautiful stories that exposed me to cultures continents away , way before the internet. We have amazing Nigerian and African fiction to share with the world so we do not need to see ourselves forced into the narratives of others, rather let us appreciate their own originality and ingenuity.

I can’t help but feel like the seven dwarfs, instead of looking like miners, now look like a group of homeless men squatting together in the same abandoned house.

I know a guy who worked on the film. The photo of the group of dwarf replacements, are not the dwarfs. They are bandits. Funny that Disney never tried to correct this perception. He said he thought the film wasn't any good anyway, because of how they changed the story.

There was a poll a few months ago asking black the community if they thought there was enough black representation on TV and the answer was that they still feel greatly underrepresented. Watching one round of ads on TV and you can tell they just want to be 100% (while actually only making up 11% in the US and 2% in the UK).

You will never convince me that Gal Gadot could ever be the evil stepmother who's gelous of her daughter's beauty.

At this point I'd love to see Disney go bankrupt. This coming from someone who loved Disney as a kid.

Part of what I thought made Disney so great back in the day was the quality of animation. I want them to do a true animated film, minimal cgi. The talent of the animators would always shine. I remember reading in Disney adventures magazine how, for the lion king, the animators went and watched lions to learn their mannerisms and behavior. There’s zero heart or talent anymore and hasn’t been in a loooooong time.

How Disney is digging its own tomb... Incredible how nobody in that crappy group is able to says stop to this money suicide... Bye bye and good luck Disney...

As a German, I laughed my ass off when Drinker started speaking German 🤣 I wish he'd do it on more occasions!

The original is what made Disney a household name, it would be ironic if the remake is the final nail

Columbian Snow and seven addicts.

Ha ha, those photos look like they're out of the safety dance music video.

No one on earth is going to believe that Gal Gadot is jealous of Rachel Zegler's "beauty".

its more entertaining to watch the critical drinkers rant than literally any of the Disney remakes
