Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Disney has invested heavily in converting its best-loved animated movies to live-action, yet one of the studio's forgotten classics proves how the studio has been getting the process wrong. While live-action remakes have been a staple of Disney's output since the 90s, they have taken center stage over the past decade.
Related Every Upcoming Live-Action Disney Remake In Development There are over a dozen Disney live-action remakes currently in development. Here's which movies are coming, when they'll release, and who'll star. The Black Cauldron Proves Darkness Is What Makes Disney Great Close Released in 1985, The Black Cauldron is undoubtedly one of Disney's darkest and scariest stories.
Disney Remakes Ignore The Originals' Darkness While the tonal difference between The Black Cauldron and the more commercially appealing live-action Disney remakes creates a stark divide, it also serves as a reminder that the studio used to be much more adventurous when it came to including more horrific elements. This is especially true for many of the movies that have been unsuccessfully reconfigured into live-action.
The Black Cauldron Represents A Major Missed Opportunity Beyond reminding viewers of how far Disney's tone has shifted over the years, The Black Cauldron is also a reminder of another area where the studio's remakes are going wrong. By and large, the studio has focused on revisiting films and stories that were already popular before the remake. Although this approach makes financial sense on paper, it also renders many remakes unnecessary.
