isn’t original, neither was the 1994 animated film. Its narrative borrows heavily from Shakespeare’s, and given the Bard’s penchant for borrowing himself, that seems like fair game. Less fair perhaps is the resemblance, not narratively, but artistically, that. While artists often imitate influences,in 2015, denied any conscious influence by Kimba, and the film’s directors, Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff, said they were unfamiliar with the anime.
Disney’s versions of these fairy tales have become more ingrained in pop consciousness than any other iteration, including the ur text. As a result, there’s an expectation about what these stories are, what they can mean, and who they are for, that Disney, even with the changes made, rarely counter in its remakes. It would seem that it is not so much the retelling of these stories that gets under the skin of certain segments of the filmgoing population, but that they are being retold by Disney.
The real issue with Disney’s remakes isn’t that they are remakes or even re-adaptations. It’s not even the quality of the films, which for the most part have been good. The issue has become, at least for those film fans weary of Disney’s hold, that these remakes are now the dominant tellings of these stories, while the knowledge that they are only a small part of history has become lost on too many moviegoers eager to think of a corporation as their friend, one who can meet their wishes.
This is not an intelligent take.
How many more Disney live action remakes are coming?
Yet proving to be financially successful which is any studio's ultimate aim, not ending anytime soon
They not complaining bout quality but remakes. Growing concern that there r new stories from smaller production houses while Disney cashes in on obvious favourites. Wait for the remake featuring the Kardashians in 2029. *a lie*
is it bad?
