I had a wonderful post written out to answer your question as I promised I would. But after negative responses from 1-2 users here, I think I should hold back for now to avoid controversy. If you'd like an immediate answer, I could pm you instead as you and I might receive less flack that way and I ...

I think the real divider is and should be Lilo & Stitch which was the last Disney classic film. I think an exception can be made for Treasure Planet as that is John and Ron's passion project and magnum opus. It failed at the box office disastrously but was a cult film so I wouldn't consider it a...

Well, that's a laugh because everyone here knows I love old films like Cinderella, Pinocchio, Dalmatians, and TSitS as much as new films like Frozen, Raya, TP&TF,and Encanto (and I have as little interest in new films like Big Hero 6, WIR, and Moana as I do in Snow White or Peter Pan). If anyth...

I only know Walt cut the scene of Cinderella taking pleasure in hearing her stepfamily talk about the mysterious lady who danced with the Prince because he thought it made her seem spiteful. I should know if she was ever going to be made more brash and outspoken and Walt toned her down, as one of h...

Lol have you even read my posts? When did I mention my race? When did I say I'm non-white. I am very much white. I've mentioned my culture and heritage being offended by the racial recastings of LA Snow White and The Frog Prince many times. Users who genuinely were interested in getting to know me h...

There wasn't a racial "recasting," the film began as a cast of Black characters. None of the Disney films are exactly like the fairytale--Aladdin was not set in the Middle East, for example--so it not having a cast of White characters simply because the story is "Germanic" or wh...

I think you and I both know you're just thedisneyspirit, no need to project. ;) I don't need to make multiple accounts because I was never banned in the first place. And I did "reprimand" D23, btw, but I'm more sympathetic to someone genuine like them who unfortunately fall for the bait b...

Nobody here had any control over The Frog Prince having a Black protagonist in the Disney film TP&TF, do you think this forum runs the company? :lol: I'm pretty sure that film was announced as The Frog Princess with a Black cast of characters from the jump, it wasn't like they announced The Fro...

Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty both took elements from the German Grimm's version of their tales. So why can't a film set in America take elements from a German story? I mean even many Germans came to America over time. Such as? Please name some examples. And even so, as I said, the Cinderella and ...

I'm not going to respond but imagine having the gall to tell my biracial friend that her experience didn't happen to her. That she has not been racially profiled and offended because apparently systemic racism doesn't exist in America and everything is a-okay. Tell me you are white without really te...

I am sorry, Lavendergolden , we have a lot in common and you are nice to me but you are not nice about race and stuff. Was Walt Disney's Cinderella being set in France with the American New Look-inspired gown for the title character cultural appropriation of the German Aschenputtel? Was Walt Disney...

There you go again, stanning a mediocre box office flop that destroyed hand-drawn animation and nearly destroyed the fairy tale musical genre until Tangled, the actual successful film at the box office, saved Disney's legacy by its eyeteeth. But sure, drag that sorry excuse of a film in this unrelat...

Does the picture match the text? Is there a Prince Charming in the book? By picture, do you mean the screenshot I posted of Belle's text and if it matches the translation? Or do you mean the illustration in the book of the blonde boy and dark-haired girl in the blue dress? Because if it's the forme...

Imagine thinking Mufasa is a success when its had a billion dollar drop from its predecessor.

I missed this. Disneyland Paris had a Hunchback themed night show for a week to celebrate the restoration of Notre Dame. I would actually have gone back to a Disney park for this if I had known about it earlier, otherwise I refuse to go to the parks now which are more about pushing agendas and ruini...

Are you a big Tangled fan? You have a lot of songs from the movie and show on here. Well, i kinda grew up with the Tangled series, so even tho its sometimes quite flawed and annoyingly unrealistic in some parts, i really adore it! While i like I see the light and ive got a dream,  they arent outsta...

The last time he has said anything, he said that it's not happening. Not sure if Disney want to associate themselves with Will Smith again, but then Mufasa doing well might make them consider doing a sequel to Aladdin. They can always recast the Genie if it's such an issue. But who would you recast...

While I will always wish for Disney to make movies based on diverse culture and time periods, I do agree their version of inclusiveness has gone out of hand. Like with them race swapping European characters and then calling fans racist for not being happy with it. 90's renaissance prove that audien...

He was good as Aladdin. Actually looked and felt like the character unlike some others I can think of. Glad to see he's been cast as the lead in a romantic film since I remember a few years back he said he had no career prospects outside of TV. It's good to see that changing and more MENA representa...

I argue it wasn’t when it failed to break even at 2.5X its budget ($650M WW on a $260M budget. Hence why I argue Lilo & Stitch and The Princess and the Frog were actual hits because they broke even and/or tripled their budgets. It's a weird argument to make. Do you think that Disney doesn't tak...
