Hi-ho hi-ho it's off to the garbage dump this movie goes.

Get and keep The Mouse outta your house.

They could have reused the original scripts, the original songs re-scored, and just used real actors and saved a ton of money.................

[EnderWiggin1970]

The main trailer for this movie on Youtube has 60,000 likes - and 1,700,000 dislikes.

It's pretty unbelievable how badly they screwed this movie up, from making the Snow White character uglier than she is IRL, the cheap costume they put her in, the creepy low-quality graphics used to create the dwarfs, the condescending diversity-check-box approach to hiring one real dwarf and some minority actors, the replacement of the Prince with a band of career criminals, and on and on and on.

The supreme irony is that if they had put the original in re-release, it would have broken box office records.

Disney doesn't re-release classic iconic movies like Song of the South, Dumbo, or Snow White.
They have done their best to bury them.

You aren’t here to entertain each other

This is the Entertainment Business

And deservedly so.

It’s too bad Disney was too stupid and arrogant to do so. They deserve to have this soulless remake be a huge box office dud.

From the movie Get Shorty.

Chili Palmer (John Travolta) : Rough business, this movie business. I’m gonna have to go back to loan-sharking just to take a rest.

What’s the writing that makes the most money?

Ransom notes.

Everybody knew this was a stinker more than 2 years ago. Disney should’ve just pulled the plug back then. It would’ve been expensive, but not as expensive as this will be.

"Someday My Prince Will Come." has become part of the Great American Songbook. I have heard so
many wonderful jazz versions, covers, and popular versions. Disney can't erase it. It's a done deal, mixed race guttersnipe notwithstanding.

[paudio]

Since then Disney had reshoot several scenes after negative comments from the Right. I suspect to make it less woke... Still...

[chajin]

My daughter got married last November, and her wedding photos finally arrived this week. In between I suggested she sing “Someday My Prints Will Come.”

[Celtic Conservative]

Apparently it wasn’t nearly enough. Which suggests the original edit was riddled with woke nonsense.

That B is jealous of A's looks stretches credulity welll past the breaking point,

[minnesota_bound]

The cost of these movies is way too high.
It must be hollywood accounting.

[Adder]

$3.5 million in Thursday previews

That much, huh?

There are people actually willing to watch this trash?

Maybe they can do Bambi next, using a doe...

[BroJoeK]

"That B is jealous of A's looks stretches credulity welll past the breaking point,"

Exactly right!

The whole premise of the story was thrown in a cocked hat.

They’re saying it made 45 million friday night.

With video release and then selling it to netflix or whatever, it will make a few bucks above profit probably.

But thats not what they need. They need a huge box office hit. A lot of time and energy to just about break even is a disaster.
