Most of the fairytales that Disney adapts are way more messed up originally before getting watered down into Disney films, easy way around it is he could be a swindler rather than a murderer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering how different some of the source material of the already existing Disney Classics is, it really shouldn't be that hard. ETA::: @Potiki beat me, but only because I was debating whether or not to hunt for linked examples.

Mojoguy Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 (edited) The original Little Mermaid fairy tale had her being given a dagger to kill her Prince but instead she commits suicide. The original was dark as hell. Far different from Disney version that nowadays only exists to sell merchandise.

Fox Animation took the claims of teenage Anastasia allegedly escaping the Bolsheviks assassinating the rest of Romanov family, and turned it into a G-rated musical with an undead Rasputin as the antagonist, so... Times have changed, stories that Disney hasn't already adapted before might face more scrutiny about being too problematic for kids, even with updates. Not that Twitter Discourse seals a movie's fate. Edited August 31, 2022 by BoxOfficeFangrl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember watching that as a 7 year old and legit had no idea her whole family was murdered cause the movie just glosses over it lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porthos Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 (edited) I was gonna mention that they already have something sorta/kinda like this (though it didn't include Plus), but it's in the article: Quote Disney already has a special program for superfans, the D23 Official Fan Club, which costs $99.99 to $129.99 a year and comes with access to exclusive events and merchandise. That program offered members a discounted three-year subscription to Disney+ in 2019. A new membership program would be different in that it would be targeted at more casual Disney fans and customers. The only thing I would add is that D23 membership also has a free tier which allowed folks to get that 3 year discount deal. (yes, that is how I got it — thanks to @Cap for the heads up, so long ago) Edited September 1, 2022 by Porthos has, not had 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XXR vs XXR Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) That list just seems like a rumor amalgamation of every fan casting we've heard in the last 3 months. I'm not saying it can't be right, but I'm trying to figure out why that guy would be the one to know? He's like a sports talking head from the UK.

WittyUsername Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Hasn’t it already been confirmed that Marvel has no plans on having John Krasinki play Reed Richards in the main universe? Why do people keep clinging to that bit of casting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
