Live action only has a purpose if it’s improving upon the previous animated version.
Honestly? I haven’t seen a SINGLE “live” action adaptation that’s improved an animated feature. I think most people would agree that no “live” remake would EVER replace the animated version, so remind me then: what’s the point?!??? why are we doing this?!?
If I want to experience the magic of ATLA or HTTYD or the Lion King. . . why the hell would I watch the inferior version?!? ESPECIALLY since I can just as easily access the original, better version?!? idk it makes no sense to me. Make new stories in the universe if you must, but at LEAST put the effort into making it look good.
I'm so so tired of "live action" remakes. HTTYD is my comfort film. It's ALREADY good. I was JUST telling my family that I love Dreamworks for making interesting films and not going the "Disney Cash Cow" route by making all their old franchises into "live action".
It hurts my heart to see this is happening. They don't NEED to do this. And if it does well we're just going to get more... we're going to get live action shrek and live action madagascar and we won't have anything new any more.
I hate that capitalism is killing literally everything i hold dear, trying to squeeze every last drop out of what makes us happy.
