God I cant stand that actress. I didn't think anyone could top Brie Larson on the bitch scale but Zegler does it.

She clearly hates the original film. I mean, she really despises it and never misses a chance to tell the press how much she hates it. Why did she take the role then? I guess just to destroy it.

Now she says the film does not have a love story and that the few scenes with the Prince should get cut. It is all about her empowerment and no pesky man can get in the way.

So no love story. No dwarves. No mirror mirror on the wall. No "Someday my Prince will come" song as it is now "problematic". No "skin as white as snow". Stepmother is no longer jealous of her looks but rather her intellect?

Bob Iger and Disney can just frick right off with this shite pile.

There are rumors that this entire project may be killed by Disney after the strike.


I don't believe it. At this point, wouldn't you at least release it to recoup SOME revenues?

WB dropped a fully shot Batgirl. You can’t release it without SOME publicity which is just going to sink their profits.

Then if you do release it without a media campaign and it tanks the cast and crew is going to crucify the studio for leaving them out to dry.

Hollywood is such a liberal bubble they think most of the world agrees with their ultra progressive thoughts. It’s really fascinating. This chick has no idea the amount of damage she’s doing to her own brand and the $$$ it will ultimately cost her. She’s not pretty enough to get away with saying whatever she wants, which is a cruel thing to say, but as she mentioned “it’s Hollywood baby.”

I thought she was great in West Side Story and had a ton of potential. Obviously, casting companies thought the same with her getting important parts in the new Hunger Games and Snow White (in Shazam as well).

But there just seems to be an entitlement now that I didn’t feel like was previously there. It could be the Hollywood influence, or getting a lot of fame and press early on in life the same way we sometimes see athletes get incredibly arrogant with early success.

Not that I necessarily want to see someone get humiliated, but I do think there needs to be a sense of comparison to the rest of society that can humble someone. She’s probably made multiple millions of dollars before the age of 25. Can understand why entitlement is creeping in.

True enough. Honestly, this movie is doing more harm than good to Disney right now, and they really don't need any further bad press at this time.

Just once I want someone to ask some of these people if they think dwarves in fantasy books/stories are just humans with a medical or genetic condition?

They’re not.


Exactly. It was Peter Dinklage who shamed Disney into removing the dwarves. I hope they interview him after this thing bombs: Guardian article-STFU Peter

quote:

“They were so proud of that, and all love and respect to the actress and the people who thought they were doing the right thing but I’m just like, ‘What are you doing?’”

Dinklage added that had a “cool, progressive spin” been put on the fairytale, he would have been “all in”.

Disney has since responded in a statement. “To avoid reinforcing stereotypes from the original animated film, we are taking a different approach with these seven characters and have been consulting with members of the dwarfism community. We look forward to sharing more as the film heads into production after a lengthy development period.”


Hahahahaha. Absolutely spineless.

Does she not realize she is tanking her own movie? From what it sounds like, she actively hates the character and the original movie. Why in the would would you take the part then? This is an actual good example of, "why not just make a new movie" It's clear they have zero desire to stick to the original story at all. Don't call it Snow White.

Say what you will about Halle Bailey and the Little Mermaid, but from her interviews, she was actually excited to play the role. She mentioned how she loved the movie and the character growing up. While they did make some changes, for the most part, it stuck to the original plot.

I don't understand for the life of me how the executives don't know this is going to bomb. You'd think they would have done some market research after recent failures.

This is the case every time with these woke race-swapping pieces of shite. Don't trash the memory of the beloved original classic, just make a movie with an entirely new story and characters. It looks like they took inspiration from Snow White and the Huntsman and went even further with the feminist angle.

What's the Queen gonna ask the mirror now? Who's the smartest girl boss of them all?

The bubble in action is fun to watch in real time though. She’s so bought in that it’s adorable really.

Their goal is to influence children into accepting this kind of thing. There will almost assuredly be kids watching this without their parents knowledge of what it really is. Disney is willing to lose money to push the agenda.

The actress called the prince in the original Snow White a stalker. This will not end well for Disney.
