Is creativity dead in Hollywood?
It sucks. I love movies and they’re dying. I know that sounds hyperbolic but it feels real.

"How do we create a franchise that's review-bomb proof?"
"Well animals generally aren't gay or trans, and we can't be called out for swapping the races of main characters, so let's go with the Lion King!"

As long it stands to make a lot of money then GLAAD will not stand for any release not having LGBTQ characters.

They went woke. Woke and liberalism have no creativity or thought ability. They have one agenda, and everything is tied to the one agenda.

I’m sure they can find some Berkeley or CalArts creative writing grads. to fill those shoes. Green hair, a looped nose ring (one around the eye as well), dark mascara, with rolled up pajama bottoms and black boots.
Not sure what the girls will be wearing.

Wonder why of all the franchisees, they chose the one in Africa?
So many other good storylines and areas to explore.
Aladdin, Mulan, Monsters Inc, just to start

I don’t know why y’all are complaining.
I’m so excited for The Last Pride

Maybe it would work as an animated franchise because of the expressive exaggerated cartoon faces/bodies that can emote, but live-action realistic talking-animals are empty/boring and require having a human supporting cast (like Babe) to help deliver the feels.

I mean shite, how many stories are you trying to find? You've already done:
I'd say that exactly two of those properties made money (LK and the 2019 remake). The rest were made for TV nonsense (although I did like 1.5 when it came out because it was a cool idea). But the fact that the only two to make any substantial money are the original and a shot-for-shot remake of the original sort of tells you that people don't want new stories...they like just the one.
Also, I had no idea there was a LK animated show/series (or maybe even two if the Around the World with Timon and Pumbaa is a show). I may see if my boy (3) would get into those.

Where you been? Robots are now they/thems in the Transformer universe. Disney made dinosaurs have 2 gay dads on a tv show. There will definitely be LGBTQ characters.

The Mulan live action remake was an epic disaster and basically killed the character.

The two halves of this sentence do not make sense.
Are there any other Norse legends that Shakespeare converted to a play that they can make CGI African animals depict on screen? Does “Hamlet” have a sequel?

They really have no new ideas at Disney anymore. They just either buy existing IP or take their old stuff and just frick it all up. Walt Disney is rolling over in his grave.

I mean, I'm ok with that. But make them animated. Not live action.
