I do find the criticism funny when all we do is cry and complain for something more "original", they do something different, and then people like the OP melt all the way down over it.

How is rehashing an IP that has already been rehashed twice already in live action doing something different? Wouldn't doing something different mean, you know...actually doing something DIFFERENT?

It's as if Disney has no ability or desire to create anything new. Yes...it's clearly a money grab based on nostalgia, regardless of whether they are going to tweak the story a bit this time around.

Take a look at a list of Disney movies from Snow White until today and remove Pixar from the mix. Then focus on 2000 or so and see how many sequels or remakes there have been since then versus what they did prior to 2000. It's hilarious to see how they've shifted from creativity and the creation of new stories and characters to mining old IP, or simply buying the IP of others and mining that.
