@Olo now that’s a compliment

[littlest-lily]

@SmolChlo Wait. This isn’t real right?? Don’t do this to me lolol

[SmolChlo]

@littlest-lily I’ve seen a few posts confirming casting and a release date but I’m not finding any articles on Google ‍

if it’s fake… forgive me

I think that Lukas fellow would play Zac while Backyard cucumberpatch would play Hexes.

As much as I want a good live action hand held I am so tired of the “Remember that movie you like? Here’s the same thing with slight differences in a new format.”

Course that might be I’m just bitter no live action movies are being turned into animated features.

@HentaiHunter1 backyard cucumber patch… I am losing my mind LOL

[littlest-lily]

@SmolChlo I forgive you haha, I wanted to believe it too! Even though I’m 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 Gulliver’s Travels.

@SmolChlo I’d glad I could entertain.

@SmolChlo not to be a buzz kill but… Dìsney. Don’t you think they’re going to completely fuck it up?

[BryTheGuy]

Well allow me to be an even bigger buzzkill: this is probably a fake poster because it doesn’t have the block of producer credits at the bottom

Honestly, given Disney’s recent history of destroying existing IP’s, that revelation is a good thing. Thank you.

An R-rated, gender-swapped remake of Gulliver’s 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! I’m sad I won’t be able to see a live action Zak and Crysta… hopefully in the future

@SallyFourth as long as the casting is decent… 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, “Why is that?” I hear you say. Well, my children, allow me to elucidate. “FernGully” is about saving the environment from deforestation, pollution and habitat destruction which is fueled by human greed. It’s 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 2023… what are the clods that pass for screenwriters today going to do? First they will get out their checklist, that’s 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, “In order to reflect the world we live in today”.

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.
