The live action for the Jungle Book was great, my only complaint is that they chose actors that couldn't sing to well you know... sing.

Except most of the remakes have been well made films, and if it really bothers you that much you should just not watch them and stick to the originals instead of constantly bitching for no reason?

only The Jungle Book was worth anything.
Beauty and the Beast was okay, but nothing worthwhile is added or changed. it's almost the same movie.

The cinematography in B&tB alone makes it a damn good film.

There were some beautiful fucking shots in that movie.

Yeah 2016's Favreau's Jungle Book was really good, I enjoyed it a lot, really liked it. And not only because the original was rather mediocre for the most part, the movie was fun and beautiful and I thought the actors were fine... it wasn't a musical so the singing isn't really singing in that sense, just two pals goofing off.

What bizarre universe am I living in where the Jungle Book remake is considered good?

Mogli was Anakin tier. The animals that werent Begeera and Sher Kahn were all bad. Bill Murray sounded dead inside during his entire performance. Walken was only good when he wasnt saying lines.

They fucked up the classic songs. The CGI was awkward and funny looking.

I didnt even like the original Jungle Book like that, and this movie never stopped pissing me off with how much it fucked up everything to be enjoyed about the original.

What the fuck was the point of the snake if it was only going to only show up for 60 seconds? Why do people give Disney a free pass on putting out bullshit that would be reamed if it were produced by any other studio?

Yes, I mad. But to my credit im also taking a poop.

By making it live action is pretty much unabashedly nostalgia whoring and honestly that they are being so transparent about it makes it more palatable.

It's not like they are destroying the animated versions, and so far the animated versions of each movie have been superior.

They are being transparent, they aren't insulting the originals, and it is like the most business smart thing they could do so that's why I'm ok with it.

The Jungle Book remake only worked because the original had no plot anyway. The rest are the most celebrated films of all time and doing a shot for shot remake of movies we've already seen is not only a waste of time and money, but an insult to the audience's intelligence.

I honestly don't care if they make live action versions of the old classics, and really, with only the information that this was what they were doing, I would go see some.

But what I can't wrap my head around is why they're remaking Disney movies with that damn Tim Burton gray-and-another-gray color scheme and grimdarkedgyangstylifeissuffering style.

It's an expectation thing. You hear "live action remake of the jungle book" and you mentally come up with a range of what the end result could be and what we got landed comfortably in the "at least serviceable plus that is iimpressive CG" camp

It's nostalgia porn, and as that it is servicable.
