3D remake of Beauty and the Beast

[charliepanayi]

I'm not sure what all the outrage is here - they're not remaking the film as such, it's the same bloody film, just done in 3-D. You can argue that such an exercise is redundant and just there to rake in some cash, and you might be right, but this is the film industry and such things are nothing new I'm afraid.

Edit: Oh and Toy Story's always been in 3-D.

Oh my aching sides!

I quote from Wikipedia: "Toy Story is set for re-release in Disney Digital 3-D on October 2, 2009"

I quote from common knowledge Toy Story is a computer animated feature which makes it in 3-D unlike it's predecessors Lion King and Mulan that are simply just drawn and are 2-D.

I... what?

Huh...?


I'm not too happy about the Alice in Wonderland remake mentioned...if it were live action instead of 3-D animation it could be a total masterpiece if done right, though. I do think Johnny Depp could make a decent Mad Hatter

[rubah]

someone already did a live action alice in wonderland, my dear jessweeee

It's not live action? Then it's not going to be dark and gothly twisted?

It's by Tim Burton, of COURSE it will be.

XD;;; Do they mean the glasses kind of 3-D or CG kinda 3-D?

Either way, that's just another branch on the tree of dignity and credibility that Disney's doing an agonizing nutcracker on as it falls lower and lower.

Edit: *brick'd, because she's eagerly waiting for TR2N* Er... that's different. XD;

Do they realize they are smurfing up one of the best films of all time?

What's next? Silence of the Lambs The Rock Opera?

They mean glasses kind of 3-D. You know, make the illusion certain parts come out at you. They are not remaking this entire film into a computer animated movie like what Pixar makes.

I don't see how they're ruining it. I just don't get the big deal.

This story being transmogrified from a primitive flick into material more palpable for the new and improved generation is
excellent news

note to self: buy bolt on DVD and the themed-pajamas of whatever preteen musical sensation is being pumped at the moment

I don't think it's ruining it, it just seems a little... unclassy. Beauty and the Beast is kind of a fairytale romance. Not an in-your-face action or quirky horror movie or anything like that. 3-D seems to not fit well with the original feel of it. I dunno, I'm just picky about what I 3-D-ify.

We havent even seen images yet and people seem to think it'll look like some kind of 3d weekday morning cartoon ie polygons which are in denial. They might actually make it look absolutely spectacular with stunning detail.....might.

The wolf scene is going to scare some small childrens, lemme just be the first to say. As well as the machine. And the mob scenes. And, you know, one half the titular duo. This is gonna be one scary movie. XD

This thread is so full of prejudice, it makes me sick.
