Well allow me to be an even bigger buzzkill: this is probably a fake poster because it doesnāt have the block of producer credits at the bottom

Honestly, given Disneyās recent history of destroying existing IPās, that revelation is a good thing. Thank you.

Even though Iām tired of live action remakes, I make exceptions for the sizey things hehe
I think the world is ready for a gender-swapped remake of Gulliverās Travels.
An R-rated, gender-swapped remake of Gulliverās Travels. And an R-rated Dr Cyclops, Attack of the Puppet People and The Devil Doll for that matter.

@littlest-lily gotta make an exception for the sizey things! Iām sad I wonāt be able to see a live action Zak and Crystaā¦ hopefully in the future

@SallyFourth as long as the casting is decentā¦ I have no complaints but to each their own

Sure, good casting, a good character driven story that is faithful to the original source material would be great. But, this is 2023 and this will be remembered as a uniquely terrible time in the history of entertainment.
But Sally, you wildly intoxicated yet strikingly sophisticated raconteur, āWhy is that?ā I hear you say. Well, my children, allow me to elucidate. āFernGullyā is about saving the environment from deforestation, pollution and habitat destruction which is fueled by human greed. Itās also a story with a strong, female protagonist (Yes! Really! Years before Brie Larson and Jennifer Lawrence). This is actually a good thing.
Now, fast-forward to 2023ā¦ what are the clods that pass for screenwriters today going to do? First they will get out their checklist, thatās their Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) checklist. Following this list they will come up with a prioritized list themes that the movie needs to push, āIn order to reflect the world we live in todayā.
The inevitable result will be a movie that attacks the patriarchal establishment as the root of all evil. The only characters who can save the world will be the strong females, who are better and smarter than all of the men in every way. The environmental message will be vastly diminished and if Zack is even in the movie, he will be weak, stupid and easily manipulated.
Just like they have done with Rings of Power, Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Willow, and all of Marvel. This is not a good time for entertainment.

@SallyFourth not a good time for entertainment
ā¦ maāam now is not a good time in general.
I canāt afford to allow myself to get worked up over these new āwokeā films or whatever terminology youād like to use. The media is aware of what it produces and puts out there, if a film or show made you madā¦ that was their intention. They would like us to be as divided and as pissed off as possible.
They arenāt trying create a more peaceful world where everyone gets along, are validated and feel included with these movies and shows.In case anyone forgotā¦ MILLIONS of children are missing and itās OUR entertainment industry, OUR actors and actresses that are involved. It truly floors me the stuff people bitch about when it comes to Hollywood, the media and what gets put out there because the people creating it are the sickest people on the planet and to make it worse we idolize them
If there was true justice and true peace on earth then there wouldnāt be a Hollywood or half the entertainment that we have been accustomed to and not in recent years but for a while nowEyes wide shut, I tell ya

@SallyFourth FWIW, Disney doesnāt seem to own the rights to Ferngully (although I suspect the reported owners (an outfit called Machine Media Advisors) would sell if Disney wanted to buy it).

Tiny Zendaya interacting with giantsā¦ a dream I wish would really come trueā¦ I already imagined her held in the palm of lukas gageās hand, or sitting on his shoulder. I donāt care that if it were true, it would have been yet another live-action adaptation. Zendaya as a fairy would have been perfect for me.

@SmolChlo isā¦ is this real

@ilikehell unfortunatelyā¦ no
I was bamboozled
