Which one's been the worst so far? And what unmade one do you think could potentially dethrone it?
>>
>>153130047
Lion King, how the fuck do you miss the point of the original one that bad by turning cartoon animals with tons of emotion and personality into realistic animals that don't emote. Also it's not even live action it's CGI, aka animated.

lilo and stitch for making the ending that she just gives up her sister to government so she can be a strong independant woman who dont need no ohana.

>Jungle book
Cowardly attempt to whitewash something they're embarrassed of. 2/10. Disgraceful.

>Beauty and the Beast
Emma Watson can't sing. At least she's pretty in this. Horrible, uncanny CGI for the castle servants, Gaston's not nearly as fun. 3/10, waste of an adaptation, but the costumes are nice.

>Mulan
Completely different genre and tone than the original film, feels like something made for China, that China didn't ask for. 4/10, not even a musical. Hacks.

>Peter Pan & Wendy
The "& Wendy" tells you everything you need to know here. Everything I said about Jungle Book applies. 1/10. There's a ton of Peter Pan movies out there and all of them are better than this turd.

>Pete's Dragon
The biggest unasked-for remake of all, and that's saying something. Having no real special fondness or particularly strong memories of the original, though, I find myself least offended by its existence. I guess 5/10? It's a movie.

>Lion King
Lol @ calling this "live action", it's just as animated as the original one, only worse in every single respect. 0/10. Worse everything, straight downgrade.

>Aladdin
I give props to Will Smith for stepping into a role knowing he would be overshadowed completely by Robin Williams' legacy. That doesn't make it watchable. Every second watching this movie just made me think how much better the animated one is. 1/10.

>Maleficent
Shitty knockoff of Wicked trying to humanize a stock villain in a fairy tale. Whatever possible charm this idea could've had was ruined by unbelievably hacky feminist drivel. 2/10, movie quickly exhausts its good ideas and becomes a chore.

>Cinderella
Didn't even watch it.

>Little Mermaid
Over-hated, but lacking in charm or raison d'etre. Why make this if you're going to gut everything out of the original that made it fun? What the fuck is wrong with Disney? 0/10 for sheer contempt for its audience.

Lion King
They just look like regular animals, with no expressive qualities

>>153130047
At least Cinderella holds up pretty well on its own. Maybe because it was one of the early ones, but it is neither a slavish copy of its animated counterpart, nor an insulting political reaction to it. Unless you find the idea of Cinderella being a more active character insulting. It’s simply a grand fantasy for children with wonderful sets and costumes that feel real. If it weren’t for the cgi mice you’d think Kenneth Branagh brought an unrelated adaptation of the fairy tale to life.

Maleficent for being a rape story allegory. That shit is just gross.

>>153130047

It came out early enough that it didn't have the same stigma as before.

>>153134538
I don't like it. Original Cinderella went to the ball for a night off. Live-action Cinderella went to see a guy. Plus the butterflies are dumb- why are there butterflies at night? They should be moths.

Mulan's definitely the worst because
A) Filmed in China's slavery province
B) Completely fucks up Mulan's character by making her literally magical when neither the original tale nor the animated story had anything resembling that

Lilo and Stitch
>Natives giving up their children to government control has never backfired, actually
Also the rerardation of Nani going to school for oceanic biology in California when Hawaii has the best school in the world for that.

This whole era is complete disposable anti-art. So glad it'll be forgotten.
>>
>>153130047
I haven't watched any but I've heard the rumors, so I'm torn between full black cast voicing the Leon King, and Mulan being a one-man army in the movie.
>>
>>153130047
Maleficent is the worst.
>>
>>153142904
I give Maleficent credit for actually telling a different story. Same with Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland. I haven't watched Cruella but I can't get past Cruella not just being a vain, violent bitch who doesn't think twice about skinning puppies.
>>
>>153143268
I’m a bit biased because I have a friend who loves it and it’s rubbed off on me. I like the Crow Guy he’s pretty cool. And Angelina Jolie looks fucking gorgeous as Maleficent
>>
>>153130047
I enjoyed Cinderella, it was near the beginning of the whole thing and I thought the costume and set designs were pretty damn impressive. It expanded the story from the animated version in okay ways.

To be fair, I was never a huge Cinderella fan, I had seen it a few times over the years, so any offensive changes probably passed by unnoticed. The rest were all varying degrees of garbage.

Can I give a special mention to Cruella for clearly leading into 101 Dalmations even though it doesn't make sense since they write live-action Cruella as an anti-hero who is lightyears away from the monstrous Cruella of the cartoon? Also there's so many things like how her mother was killed by Dalmations because I bet at some point in the script some dumbass writer was trying to justify her killing dalmations out of revenge (she doesn't of course, if you haven't seen it). What an absolute clusterfuck of a movie.
