and to the guy dogging Maleficent - that movie was good.


It sucked. Typical PC garbage. They took Disney's most iconic villain and made her the "hero" of the story. Maleficent wasn't Aurora's fairy godmother. That's just wrong.

I can handle having the story told from her point of view, but you can't take the villain of the story and suddenly make him/her the protagonist. It's just bad storytelling.

What's next...a retelling of Snow White where the queen is the sympathetic character and Snow White and the dwarfs are trying to kill her?

Agree completely.

A good old story of how someone became evil done right would be amazing and fresh from a Disney standpoint.

I thought Disney with Maleficent was going for a Wicked type of story line. Something that could be dark and magical at the same time. Wicked was a fantastic broadway play.

What they did was just simply butcher one of their most iconic characters...not surprising Angelina Jolie was involved.
