what is the purpose of the lion king remake. its the same damn movie animated in 3d with realistic animals instead of 2d. what can cgi convey that 2d cant in the story of the lion king? what new thing does this bring to the story? how does it improve on it? it doesnt. both this and the jungle book are just worse ways to tell the original stories due to the limits of realistic animal facial structures and movement. we all need to stop falling for disneys new trick of just remaking Everything to profit off of your nostalgia while not taking any risks. all of hollywood is currently in this era where everything is a remake sequel or adaptation bc its riskless easy money. i find it hard to count all the original stories that came out in the past few years, and this lion king remake truly feels like the worst insult yet. i beg you all to not support these movies no matter who stars in them or how good they are, we cant just let studios be lazy and uninspired and turn away original stories to profit off of people by selling us what we already know and love over and over again

They said “live action remake” so that means either you get real lions and do it Homeward Bound style or you put cat ears on Beyonce, not this bullshit
