Don't watch Disney remakes
Don't pay for Disney remakes
Don't support Disney remakes
You may find it silly that I'm so pissed off, and that I'm taking such a stance for something like this
however
in this short video
I want to quickly explain my reasons why and maybe you'll see why many people feel the same
These Disney we makes are pretty much a giant middle finger to traditional animation
They are pretty much saying
"Hey 2D animation doesn't make money anymore.
No one wants to see it anymore,
and we can get just as much value from real humans and soulless,
hyper-realistic CGI and that it's even an improvement."
Disney wants to make money without any effort in producing original stories or taking risks
They want to desecrate their own products by making shot-for-shot
live-action corporate sludge
"Get off the couch."
[Unintelligble.] -specially my box is a biggie cereal like Cheerios Disney's The Lion King,
July 19, Rated PG
that fails to understand why these stories work so well using
Traditional animation in the first place and they are getting away with it and making money
Now, I know some people want to see this garbage because they have this false idea
they'll get a nostalgia trip to somewhat improve their pathetic lives for an hour and a half. They're not gonna get it
I know it's unusual to diss an entire
""""Genre""""
that I have never seen a film all the way through from but I've seen enough trailers
screenshots and clips like these
To understand what these things are all about another reason is that I simply refuse I refuse to give money to these films
ironically or unironically
I know there's enough sequels that are grotesque
corpses of their originals to complain about but this is where I draw the line and even if these remakes were on par with the
originals, what would be the point, exactly?
You retold the story in the exact same manner, but with a different medium
Congrats. The only way I would ever approve these is if they somehow improved the originals which I really
really doubt
Some of the arguments that people use to defend these creations are:
"They're making them for a new generation!"
Go die.
There is a reason these films are classics
They can be appreciated by multiple generations
Their stories are timeless and animation itself is fairly timeless
I can still watch films like Snow White and Bambi and Fantasia
and appreciate their qualities because they have elements that make them good and no matter how old they are
The Lion King is not even 30 years old yet. Just watch that
It's still good. Another argument is that
"They can be taken more seriously because they're
"""LIVE-ACTION"""
Go die
Animation has always had serious movies, you brain-dead masses. Just because it looks like a silly cartoon doesn't mean it doesn't have
potential for very adult material and that doesn't just mean putting in a bunch of boobies and swear words
"This film has Beyondsay!!!"
Go die
I don't care that Disney bought a bunch of celebrities
I strongly advise everyone to make this movie a flop it probably won't happen but please
Please at least try
Then maybe millions upon millions of dollars won't be poured into making any more garbage and if you must see it
There are other ways
Just please, for the love of God, if you have any respect for art whatsoever. Don't pay money to see these films
