  What's with this new trend remaking earlier Disney films with blacks, Hispanics, and Asians filling roles originally played by white actors? I suppose it's good that we're now seeing actors of color voicing positive, wholesome non-European characters, sure... but did we really need a redux of Lion King boasting an all-black cast, or Will Smith as Genie in Aladdin? I mean, at least say something new, instead of some inferior shot-for-shot GGI remake of a movie I remember fondly from my youth. It's really all quite boring and uninspired.

  And now I hear talk of a Little Mermaid film starring an African-American actress in the works.  Like the Aladdin reboot, it'll be live-action/CGI, and Ariel will have "some more power" (whatever the hell that means).
Yet interestingly, the guy Ariel falls madly in love with and gives up everything for?... Still white!  "Woke"?  More like joke.  Yet, it gets better. Ariel's pal Scuttle is now a female sea-bird played by an Asian-American actress best known for singing about her lady-bits.  And, soo-prize, soo-prize, the villain is played by a fat white girl... Hey, didn't she already stink it up in the last reboot of a beloved franchise she starred in? ...Dammit, they should have gotten the black tranny from the new Rocky Horror flick as Ursula. I bet he/she could sing the crap out of the musical numbers.

  I say avoid this warmed-over fish turd and go rent/stream the original animated Disney film... or, if you must see a mermaid of color today, check out The Belch Dimension Comics #35.  I was ahead of the curve, like, 13 years ago.

Social justice is what these companies think they need to do because of a small group of whiners online.

New Disney film based off the popular "Dairy of A Wimpy Kid" books.  This looks pretty low quality coming from Disney.  Comes out December 3rd, 2021.

I'm sure it will be a fun kids movie and it is doing something kinda different in how it looks.  It doesn't look too great, but I am sure when watching it you will get used to it. :)

It's okay looking.  Lower budget for sure.  It would be hard to translate 2d stick figures into 3D to begin with.  So they kept the cartoony nature of it all.

It is lower budget, but seems like it tries it's best to mimic the source content.  For that, I give it props.  But I kind of wish it was a 2D animated film.

The first film from 10 years ago was better and captured the crude herky-jerky notebook doodle artwork of the original books far better.  This reboot just looks like bad Claymation crap, much too reminiscent of that 2015 Peanuts film.   P>>

Hmmm.  I'm not sure what I think about this one.

I'm not sure actually! That trailer gave me hope  :)) They're acknowledging the constant reboots and the change from 2D to CGI, and older stuff, and newer stuff! They're not turning the show into an reboot CGI movie, they're building off a world where cartoons and real life are one and the same, it's all Hollywood. I'm actually excited for that! For now...

It looks pretty appalling honestly.  The 2d characters are 3D computer animations.  It really doesn't look that good.

Another cgi or 'live action' Disney movie as they call it.  This time they screw up Pinocchio and make one of the lesser films of the year.  Reviews are coming in and it's terrible.

And I thought Roberto Begnini's Pinnochio was horrific and disturbing....

Pinocchio 2022 is being roasted.  It's a train wreck and Tom Hanks phoned it in too.  People are tearing it a new one.  People say it is soulless.

Rotten Tomatoes has  28% out of 130 critics' reviews being positive, with an average rating of 4.6/10.

This is what, the third failed Disney "live action" remake?  Fourth?
