      We already got one, it's called "that one season of Once Upon A Time even the fans groaned at". It didnt try to do anything interesting to make the fairytale fit their modern world the way the first seasons did, where it's clearly those fairytales but not trying to just literally use the Disney versions; that one was just... Disney's Elsa and Anna's live action adventures.

      More like "my superhero shtick failed and I really wanna do that, so how about Maui instead?"
      Maui is a really cool character, but most of that is due to how animated he is. Live action Maui cannot hope to top the animated version unless they wanna go the Scott Pilgrim route which is not gonna happen.
      And Maui is beefier than The Rock will ever be. I honestly think The Rock is trying to scratch off a bucket list of some kind.

      I don't think the era that gave us the stereotypical extreme/edgy yet safely marketable to everybody aesthetic mocked by millennials, adult animation, and modern Disney themselves was about valuing creativity *over* money. Eisner was a creative. He was better at balancing the conflict between corporate interests and the artistic pursuits inherent in running an entertainment company, but let's not pretend it was a golden age just because of the Renaissance. I'd argue Disney's television projects are the best they've ever been, for example, far better than what they could offer in the 90s.

      @@Pitufo458 in a stage production? I think they could do something really cool, as theater lends itself to using symbolism to loosely but effectively represent elements and characters. For example, someone mentioned in another comment about a Moana play in a school were instead of making the kid playing Tamatoa wear a crab suit or something like that, the Tamatoa costume was a purple suit with a blazer filled with sequins, which is a pretty dapper look + it effectively represents the character in a satisfactory manner in accordance to the medium where it's shown.
      Another, official example would be the Lion King stage play, were nobody is actually dressed in animal suits. Still waaaay better than just straight up live action +CGI movies ☹️

    Rick Riordan, the author of the Percy Jackson books, gets his work published under Disney (hence Disney also picking up PJO for a live action show). Rick started doing “Rick Riordan Presents” which allows poc authors to get their stories out there about their cultures and mythologies. I feel like an easy way for Disney to do live action and “show” other cultures for representation, would be to start adapting these works. The stories are already there for them, but they’d be new to many people.

      Rock bottom would be when theaters have an ad for the live action film play before the start of said animated film.
      Somehow, I think having a live action and animated version of a film come out at the same time might actually be a marked improvement over what we have now, given that it would require both films to actually be good.

      I can't wait for the inevitable Meet the Robinsons reboot where Goob's hilariously tortured backstory is given more prominence and Lewis turns into an asshole looking for his parents while the hat is either nonexistent or Doris is the name of the underpaid secretary of the joke company that Bowler Hat Guy passes Lewis's invention off to and *she* turns out to have a convoluted connection to Lewis or is the twist villain (again, but more underwhelming) of the whole thing who wants revenge on Future Cornelius because he was a sexist who only hired men to work for him.
      Either way when they finally hit Meet the Robinsons it'll be an interesting, pathetic trainwreck that'll throw away the two intended messages about moving forward and the smaller message of "your dreams shouldn't selfishly affect everyone around you due to tunnel vision" and solely turn it into another failed Marxist screed about anticapitalism and paint that Lewis should have given up on his dreams to capitulate to what Goob wants because that makes him a Good Comrade™.

      I think the fact that movie studios these days seem to put more thought into what an angry internet mop that hasn't actually seen the movie might think, rather than the opinions of people who've actually seen a movie, is more part of the problem than the solution. I don't wanna encourage that. Better spread awareness of overlooked actually good movies online.
      Unless by "these films" you mean apparently pointless films that already came out and then every reviewer (you trust) confirms that they are pointless. Sure, I'm not giving them the time of day or my money.
      But petitioning for busy parents not to park their kids in front of Disney+ seems like a pointless endeavor. People aren't going to boycott a movie for being exactly what they are looking for, a bunch of CGI key-dangling.

Things I did when I was 12 years old was nostalgic, such as playing Minecraft after school with my friends, but that's because I did it for such a long time both before and after that age. Moana hasn't been long enough to be nostalgic. I feel like with movies, there has to be a significant amount of time after the release for it to have that feeling. A movie I feel nostalgic for is Home on the Range, because I watched it a lot when I was young. (^ - ^)

      My money is on a deep monstrous voice with no personality. Doesn't even sound as if it's coming from the giant photo-realistic crab, it just sort of echoes through from all directions, very slow and breathy.

    It's weird that Dwayne Johnson is pushing for this and not another Jumanji movie. Both of his Jumanji movies were huge hits, and it's just strange that they haven't finished the trilogy yet.

      Yes, Dwayne Johnson should prioritize on Jumanji movies, not on Moana remake. I want more Jumanji movies, not a live-action demake of Moana.
      Seriously, if Dwayne Johnson wants people to see more of him being cool in the live-action movies, why not give people more Jumanji movies because those movies take place in action adventure video games.

    I feel like I need to point out that the 10 year olds who first saw it are 17 now and will be 18 by the time it comes out. Don't want to make you feel old, but even the 7 year olds who watched it are now able to work and earn their own money. The nostalgia factor is still there, disney is just trying to figure out how early they can place them and expect returns.

    I can imagine Dwayne Johnson wearing a tight, green suit from ankle to neck so they can digitally edit more tattoos on him, and animated mini Maui.
    That is, if mini Maui will appear at all, since he’s just as cartoony as Tamatoa.

    I think the worst part is that disney might eventually *COMPLETELY* drop animation,
    And I feel like this isn’t talked about much,
    But you literally CAN NOT deny the sheer beauty of recent animated disney movies,
    Encanto in general,while not only being well written,was GORGEOUS,
    Bruno’s prophecy scene,antonio’s tree-house,basically every song number.
    Its scary to think we’d lose ALL of that just for some bland live action movies.

      It started with the first remake of The Jungle Book (1990's), then that 2011 Winnie the Pooh movie (their last 2D movie ever) before fully transitioning to 3D only; I wouldn't be surprised if it were the case tbh. Disney wants to distance themselves from the thing that made them unique, that made them famous, that changed the world for almost a century, all in favour of the want for "maturity". Animation isn't immature, it's a form of art, a technique in filmmaking. No more, no less.

      Maybe they should try to tell decent stories again instead of trying to score woke points. Art and propaganda are mutually exclusive, especially in family entertainment. They have the technical talent, but anything beautiful gets eviscerated by their politics long before it can escape the studio.

    • @WeeklyComedian

      At this point I would be ok with disney animation going under and all those talented artists heading to other studios, or starting their own. Their recent films always focus on a compelling social issue, and then they run away from it at the last minute so their audience doesn't have to think or feel uncomfortable (frozen 2 has Elsa use magic to end a conversation on generational racism, Encanto is a 'story' about familial trauma where the villain just apologizes in the last five minutes...etc etc). The problem isn't Disney incorporating social critique into their films, it's that it doesn't feel organic because it's board mandated, and they're so greedy that they'll never say anything meaningful about those topics.

      @@WeeklyComedian calling the grandma (forgot her name) a “villain” is an EXTREME downplay,
      Shes basically a damaged character herself and ends up lashing out at the ones her love for the sake of perfection and to keep the miracle,
      While she definitely was in the wrong,claiming she was a villain is an INSULT to the character,shes more than a single dimensional “ooouh sorry for being bad,I’ll fix myself now”,especially considering we got a look at her trauma earlier,other movies are trash though.
