    I think Mulan definitely could work better as live action, compared to Lion King, that was very weird.

    My favorite Disney OG cartoon is still Robin Hood I have to say, I love it so much. Just one of the best movies ever IMO.
    Edit: Also ideologically the best one, take from the rich give to the poor. I don't think they'll remake this one for some time.

      Great movie. Plus I'm convinced that reusing the animation from the jungle book is praxis somehow.

      Actually, the most messed up part of that movie is when you realize that Sir Hiss has fur all over his body https://images.app.goo.gl/YNATbAFgNqWqTGWa7

      I Just hate how cynical it all is. I mean, they're not remaking these movies because they think they can tell the story better or with a new twist. They are remaking them because people with kids will gladly pay $30 to share some of their childhood memories with their own children.

      Has human creativity really stifled so much under the thumb of capitalism that the only acceptable kind of movies to make anymore are either sequels to star wars and marvel or Disney remakes?

        Yeah its just a moneygrab, they already own the story, they just need to slightly adjust it and rendering gets cheaper by the day. So yeah, fuck Disney.
