I’m always puzzled why they keep trying to remake old movies “modern” - even though they continue to FAIL.
Trying to make a 1937 movie “woke” is like trying to turn a Ford Model A into a modern electric vehicle. You can probably do it, but what will the result look like?
Why not just create NEW stories, that fit their post-modern, neo-marxist attitudes?
THE OBJECTIVE IT TO DESTROY HISTORY AS WE KNOW IT.
As the older generations die off, the memory of the way things were dies with them.
The new generations will have no clue as to the way society was, because they don’t get exposed to it, therefore it didn’t happen, and the way things ARE is the the way things have always been in their minds...............
“Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.”
― George Orwell, 1984
There’s a JRR Tolkien quote along the lines of evil can only destroy what exists, they can’t create anything new.
When did Disney ever do that?
Almost all their animated classics are Grimm Brothers tales that fell out of copyright. Disney has rarely created new stories.
There’s a YouTuber who did exactly that though... Stuck the electric guts from a crashed e-bike into a Model A. Had more power than the original Ford flat-4.. but not by much.
However, I get what you’re saying.
The Left isn’t trying to re-create these stories... It’s trying to DESTROY what they originally stood for and the messages therein. Traditional values? Natural gender roles?
Screw that... they have Cultural Marxism to push... Can’t do that with GOOD examples of how traditional Western Culture was far superior to their hateful dreck lying about.
“Why not just create NEW stories, that fit their post-modern, neo-marxist attitudes?”
They do that too, but they’re out to erase any vestiges of morality of the old film.
In the future they don’t want you to even remember the old Snow White.
It’s Soviet style erasure of history.
