Re: Unitled WDAS Short by Malcon Pierce
Were any of those shorts theatrical, though?

Re: Disney Princesses Got a Makeover
"Raya" at least has the pandemic as a cover to account for its box office, though I also think "Raya" was a much better film (even if I don't think she really belongs in the princess line either and will probably be phased out as time goes on).

Re: Unitled WDAS Short by Malcon Pierce
Oo. I like the sound of that. I'm wondering if it's one of the fab 5 outside of Mickey. It'd be nice to keep their presence fresh for contemporary viewers. Though, I could also live if it were a legacy character from the animated canon.

Re: Maleficent (Live-Action)
Branagh's a favorite director of mine, even outside of his involvement with Cinderella. I think he might have given the film a more regal feel to it, but the real problem was the screenplay, as well as the central directive behind the movie. I don't think he would have taken away from that. AM I sti...

Re: Aladdin 2
As a mild coincidence, just this morning I saw a Disney fanpage reporting that Aladdin 2 was set to go into production here in a few weeks sporting a poster that was very obviously AI generated. It does seem to suggest that online sources recognize this as an item of interest for Disney fans, just n...

Re: Moana
I get that in theory. I'm just personally not sure how much more space Maui could have taken up without taking away the spotlight from Moana. I think Tangled is about the closest you can get to having the two leads as "the leads" while still letting one sit in the driver's seat, and Moana ...

If she's talking about it publicly, then there's a solid chance it'll happen. Anyways, I rewatched "The Greatest Showman" this weekend, and the Michael Gracey connection is almost enough to get me excited for this. I think his penchant for musical filmmaking combined with literal fantasy c...

Re: Moana
Yeah, as much as I enjoy the film, it has always kind of felt like a sum-average to me. I've always felt the earmarks of a lot of corporate trimming. After the film became a runaway hit on streaming, that may have given studios the incentive to insert themselves even more into the process, which wou...

Re: Zootopia 2
Yeah, my standing affection for the Disney legacy is evergreen, but this will be a major turning point for how much energy I can muster for their coming attractions. I can only be burned so many times.
Thankfully, these early signs are promising.

Re: Tangled (Live-Action)
I half agree with that. I'll acknowledge this discussion is already going to be impossible to reach a wide consensus on because everyone just has a different way of ranking the Disney remakes. (I myself thought that The Little Mermaid was significantly better than Snow White.) But for the sake of co...

Re: Tangled (Live-Action)
I've had the same thought. The public has been very clear about how they feel about Disney trying to use Disney Princesses as a launching pad for social progress. Liberals didn't take the bait, and conservatives were scandalized. A part of me does kind of wonder, though, in a universe where Disney d...

Re: Tangled (Live-Action)
If they're not going to give us Hahn, they should at least go for an actress closer to 50.
I love ScarJo, but I have a hard time imagining her with lines like, "Oh look--you're here too!"

I don't think I could tell you most of the lyrics after a single listen, but I won't deny that I'm certain that this is going to be stuck in my head. A suitable companion to "Try Everything" IMO.

^Define "villain," though. Anyways, I'm thinking this is also one of those rare representations of a mother-son relationship in Disney. I feel like it's one of those pairings that doesn't get a lot of coverage. Mother/daughter, sure. Father/son, yes. Even Father/daughter, absolutely. But w...

Re: Bob Iger is Back!!!
Chapek was also with the parks, if I recall. But I also associated him more with lazy overlays like "Pixar Pier" and just slapping stickers on everything. D'Amaro's big tickets on his resume seem to include the Mickey Mouse ride (which I loved) and The Avenger's Campus (which I thought was...

Re: Oscar for Best Animated Feature 2025
