It is precious especially because Hawaii is one of the best places in the world to study marine biology. So Nani went the continent because she hates her sister a lot it seems.
Another one of those “cast off your insecurities as a writer” moments that absolutely no one in this writers room could feel out even a single aspect of the appeal of this movie.
Dunno who* needs to hear this: people aren’t animating things ‘cos they lack the ability to make it live action! They animate because it’s is a valid fucking medium, folks!✨
I agree, except replace "valid" with "superior." Animation can do anything live-action can do, but bigger and better.
Heck, the ONLY TIME a live-action Disney remake outdid its animated version was the Beauty and the Beast "Gaston" song, cuz it played up the song BIGGER.
Speaking of Beauty and the Beast, it's been theorized (but never proven) that BatB's success led to "best animated picture" as an attempt to nerf animation and keep it from sweeping the Oscars in the future.
This is all just a big scam to make so many perfect children's movies marketable to a new generation of kids. The same will happen with HTTYD, and Tangled if they ever do a remake of that. I'm sick of it honestly
Lilo & Stitch is one of my all-time favourite films - easily my favourite Disney movie by a country mile - and a key element of that is, Stitch is for the majority of the film Chaotic Evil. His entire demeanour is 'fuck you'. Lilo is Chaotic Good. They're both creeps, they're both weirdos.
They belong to each other, they balance each other out... They're family, even though nobody else sees it, not straight away.
And none of that is in the new version, they gutted it for schmaltz for the humans, the filmmakers pretty much forget THERE'S FUCKING ALIENS IN THIS MOVIE.
I saw an interview with the writers or directors talking about not having Gantu, in order to focus the story more on the sisters and I was like "Yeah, ok."
then I saw this on Tumblr yesterday and was like "JK THIS SUCKS."
The whole live action remake of any animated film pisses me off like did they think they only animated it that way cos they couldn’t do it any other way? They make it seem like animation is settling. 😡
If nothing else, Dreamworks is likely to very deliberate try to avoid making it feel like the Disney remakes, since trying to outdo Disney is kind of their whole deal. No saying if it will be better, but at least different.

the How to Train Your Dragon one is like a siren's song calling me and I want to like it, I'm just so jaded by every other "live action" remake 😭
Least thats how I see Disney doing it
