As a kid, I watched every single animated Disney movie with as much love and adoration as my young heart could muster. I loved going on adventures with the lovely princess and growing up alongside some of my favorite animated characters.
As an adult, I can safely say that I have just as much love and adoration for the movies I grew up on, and I still enjoy putting them on whenever I need a mood boost or even just a wholesome night at home.
But just like many other Disney-loving adults, I never understood the appeal of the live-action phenomenon that is infesting our screens in recent years, especially not for movies that came out only a decade ago, like Moana.
When Cinderella was introduced, or even Beauty and the Beast, I can admit I was excited. These movies were old enough that creating a live-action remake invoked a sense of nostalgia I was happy to feel. I didn't always approve of the changes made in these new versions, but I still enjoyed the overall experience.
These days, however, live-action remakes are everywhere, and most of them make no sense at all. Why make a live-action remake of a movie that only came out 10 years ago and barely had a chance to age? No one wants to see it for the sake of nostalgia, and there is nothing in the original animation that warrants a need for real actors for a redo. And since the live-action Moana was released in theaters last week, it seems like many reviewers feel the same way as I do. No one was particularly blown away by this new version, and many advise to simply stick to the original movie.
The only good thing that came out of this film is some of the tweets regarding it, especially the hilarious collection below. So, even if you have no intentions to visit the movie theater, do yourself a favor and visit this thread…. What can I say except "You're Welcome?"
