If Disney wants to make sure their movies aren’t affected by their actors’ political views they should consider making a Snow White and The Seven Dwarves cartoon

Do you even know wat woke means? I don't think you do. To you, it's just a word you can spew at others. Define it for me. I dare you. May e you'll learn something.
What's ironic is that some actors didn't want little people humiliated or discriminated against right. But that cost 7 little people money out their pocket. Nonsensical
That whole argument has so many pros and cons for both sides though.
The best answer would probably have been to have the Seven Dwarves as fantasy creatures but for the love of all thats holy just start hiring diverse actors everywhere. Which they kind of did. They had a token. An attempt was made.
Now that I think about it, there's a bunch of Disney stuff that might be a lot better animated. Imagine Beauty and the Beast but it's lush 2D animation instead of CGI slop! Or Jungle 2 Jungle...
A limited time rerelease of the OG Snow White in theaters would have done way more numbers and cost them a whole lot less. All they had to do was market it properly. A lot of ppl have never even seen it, so why would they go see a remake?
Actually, they already did that in the 30s. Btw, I like the original, even though one or two things may not hold up today. And would I go see the live action remake despite all the controversy? Maybe, maybe not.
How about viewers watch a movie for what it is! I watch movies like this for its entertainment value. I couldn't care less what the actors, directors views are or what their color is! This is not a documentary. People need to lighten up.
This is exactly why Disney keeps feeding us trash garbage instead of worthwhile new stories or actual art. They know their shameless money grab will be a success because of people like you still willing to throw $ at them. So why waste more effort or hire talent making anything original or good?
I haven't watched a Disney movie in 30 years. I don't watch those movies because they don't appeal to me. But they DO appeal to many others. Money grab? Most big corporations grab as much money as they can. Why not corporate Disney?
Why can't a studio just put "no talking to the press" in the contracts? Take back the money and sue if they talk. Does anyone go to a movie based on press tour clips anymore anyway?
They would still 'have to' check the politics of the voice actors, the animators, etc.- not disagreeing on general principles, just saying. Much less problematic with the original in its time.
Love the movie! Shocking how before it was even in theaters people were saying movie flopped. Would you rather live under the thumb of a “strongman” leader or a kind, open hearted, nature connected leader? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Eown0IkeQjY
I don't understand the negativity. There's nothing in this movie that offends. I like that most of it is set in the outdoors. Costuming and sets were amazing as well. I worked on movies in Hollywood and I have a degree in Visual Comm but what do I know?
This. The dwarves were a little odd but, generally, I thought it was a solid contemporary update. The political kerfuffle is interesting, because the two stars expressed opposing views, so people on “both sides” could take offense. 🙃
I hate you for this comment, because at some point the brightest minds at Disney will find this comment or have the same idea, and then we'll have to deal with that shit now too. 🤦♀️

And it also had Bill Farmer and one of the Star Wars VAs in it. No joke Goofy is in The 7Ds! ;)
