A message in support of modern Hollywood.

Can't we just support Disney and Hollywood no matter what they give us?

All I am saying if movies were only original and no sequels, no remakes and no progressiveness, it would be boring!

Support all movies from all Hollywood studios, including Disney no matter what.

After all, the game is called The Legend of Zelda.

I don't entirely disagree with you, but I think, you're overreacting too much. Also, live action remake movies can be good, I have 3 examples, to prove this, Popeye (1980),

Speed Racer (2008)

and Charlotte's Web (2006).

In my personal honest opinion, Disney is better at that sort of thing, than DreamWorks and Universal will be here. Just remember, the old versions are not getting replaced anytime soon, even if these new movie versions exist.

As a long time httyd fan who has been heavily involved in the fandom since the first movie and who has spent years working in the animation industry, I’d like to share my thoughts on the new httyd movie. Keep in mind, this is just my personal opinion and it's completely fine if you disagree with me. I just want to say a little something about all this that really bothers me.

The core reason that Dreamworks and Universal made this film is that it’s a quick and easy cash grab for them. Thats it. They don’t care about telling a good story or making a “better” version of the original movie for fans or even having an accurate portrayal of the characters/story. It’s purely about money. They know that fans of the original film will go see this movie, whether it’s good or bad. And those guaranteed ticket sales are all that matter to the studios. And with Universal, it has the added bonus of being a cheap promotional and merchandising opportunity for the new HTTYD land in Orlando that opens around the same time that the film is premiering in theaters.

And to help the studios make even more money out of this, they are using non-unionized VFX companies around the world to make this film, so that they can get cheaper labor and push the artists to do more that would be against American union standards. The same thing has probably happened with the costuming and fabrication for the filming, hence why the costumes look un-weathered and the sets look cheap. They don’t want to pay for the extra time and effort that it would take to make the practical bits of the production look good.

On top of all this, Dreamworks has already announced that they’re shutting down all their in-house animation projects in favor of using AI and outsourcing projects to cheaper international non-union studios.

With all this in mind, I just can’t support this film and I will not be seeing it in theaters. And I hope that others will do the same.

The only way to stop all these horrible “live action” remakes (which are actually just realistically animated remakes) is to not buy tickets to see them. Money is all that matters to these studios, and if they don’t make any money off of it, then they will stop and try something different. Maybe they'll even go back to focusing on original stories!

That’s the power that we hold as audiences. Our wallets help drive the decisions that the executives make. So support unique storytelling and gorgeous cinematography in movies. Support indie films. Support animators as they're fighting for fair pay and better contracts. But don't support a mediocre shot-for-shot remake riding on the coattails of an already successful film.

And I just want to wrap all this up by saying I have absolutely no hate towards anyone that has worked on the new film. Toothless looks incredible and I know the artists and creatives involved in this project did the best they could with what they were given.

But I also know that those same artists have so many more brilliant ideas that they would’ve loved to be given the creative freedom to do. I just wish hollywood would be willing to take a chance and let them do it.

Unpopular Disney opinion: Disney has every right making remakes/reboots or sequels of beloved films.

For one, making movies that people will go see is literally their job as movie studios. And how do they make money? By making films they know people will go see. Remakes and sequels are safe options that get people in the theaters to go spend an hour and a half or longer feeling nostalgia as they enjoy the characters and stories they already know.

The movie industry has been suffering due to the introduction of streaming as less people are going to the theater and waiting till it goes to streaming, so these "cash grabs" from nostalgia ands continued stories allow disney to keep going for years to come. Even last night at D23, there was a mix of original content and sequels and remakes announced. And yeah, sometimes it's frustrating to see a franchise continuing on for years after you keep thinking they're done like Toy Story. But enjoy the nostalgia while they make a film targeted at a new generation. I for one am excited for a film that's targeted at the ipad kids, even if I don't know what the plot will be.

And for the worries they'll be woke? Disney has always been a little controversial. We just don't see it as much anymore in the old stuff because that stuff isn't controversial anymore. And oh hey, even if it is, it does NOTHING to take away from the original media you love. So there's no reason to worry that they'll "ruin" your beloved childhood film with a remake. They're separate pieces of media. They don't even have to be a shot for shot remake. In the case of Snow White, it's coming out almost 90 years after the original. It's going to be a different story as the people consuming it are different people. Society has changed since 1937.

Finally, cash grab or not, people need to stop being so pessimistic about these films. Stop hating on every square inch of a film before you even have a teaser. Films are meant to be enjoyed. Enjoy the nostalgia and storytelling and the magic. Remember what it was like to be a kid and try to experience that magic all over again. Whether you like remakes or not, that doesn't change the fact that artists put tons of work into these films and pull off some INCREDIBLE feats with these films. It's magical. And maybe after the movie comes out and you watch it, you don't like it. That's okay. But don't go in with the mindset that you'll absolutely hate it from the moment you find out they announced the movie.

Movies are supposed to be fun. It's okay to enjoy a new version of an old story. Let yourself embrace the magic. It's not worth the negativity. We've got enough of that in this world right now as it is.

This is what I say to anyone hating Disney's live action remakes and the upcoming Minecraft movie!

MODERN MOVIES ARE NOT STUPID! YOU PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET ARE STUPID!
