I am unaware of this news.

Are they extensively reshooting this film?

reply

[–] HarlemEagle42 (17735) a year ago

No. I don’t know what the OP is talking about. There was a fake headline on Rachel Zegler being recast.

reply

[–] enriquesingh (1810) a year ago

Oh okay. Yeah I doubt they will do that since it will require to reshoot most of the film... also I doubt Disney has any issues with what she is going around saying... talk about shooting yourself in the foot.

reply

[–] LanceDance (1298) a year ago

Looks like the op was a little early, but they just posted images of Rachel Zegler with cgi dwarves on Twitter, and reports are coming out that they are in fact extensively reshooting the film. Supposedly it’s been pushed back to 2025.

Disney hasn’t listened to any fans for years. At least, not the intelligent ones who want accuracy in its live action depictions.

What is your post based on? I did a search and there’s nothing out there about Disney changing direction on this except clickbait “articles” from bottom feeder sites asking if the film has been delayed or abandoned.

It may be delayed due to the strike, but sadly it hasn’t been abandoned or changed directions.

[–] mitzibishi (1835) a year ago

There hasn't been a full on campaign against the fans, which is par for the course when fans point out their mistakes.

They tried to put the wheels in motion for a "racist backlash" to drum up some publicity, but Rachel Zegglers big mouth couldn't help itself, and it wasn't pursued into a full fake controversy campaign, and they let her hold the hot potato after saying dumb things and insulting the original. Hates the source material, and holds it in contempt. No different to any of the other cases for other IPS, Rings of Power, Star Wars, Ghostbusters etc.

This time they let her take the fall instead of doubling down attacking the fans.

And Bob Igor suddenly wants to go quiet on political messages. The bottom line is more important than the message now apparently.

That’s not “listening” to fans. Listening would mean giving us the movies we want and dropping all the woke BS.

Hopefully that happens.

reply

[–] mitzibishi (1835) a year ago

This could be the first step, as they're realising the bottom line is at stake.

Potential Billion $ movies are passing them by and they are losing money.

Or maybe they let her take the fall because she pulled the trigger too early on the "racist backlash", and it should have used closer to the release date to drum up publicity.

It did seem to come a little bit early, maybe she released the "racist backlash" story to the press without Disney knowing about it, so they didn't back her up with a full campaign to attack the fans.

We'll see closer to the release date if the old "racist backlash" marketing campaign is dredged up again.

[–] ATG6 (3000) a year ago

Disney doesn't seem particularly interested in maximizing revenue any more. You would think the shareholders wouldn't be too happy about that. Almost like they have some other sort of agenda that's more important to them. Why not stick with what used to work?

reply

[–] StrongRex (1319) a year ago

Alice in Wonderland and Maleficent should have been big clues to Disney fans that Disney was well on its way to going woke. Many of us warned about it, but many more wouldn’t listen.

reply

[–] leader (1959) a year ago

What is woke about Maleficent?

reply

[–] StrongRex (1319) a year ago

Only that it was written by a feminazi who believes that if any woman is the slightest bit malicious it's all due to a man (despite that Maleficent never once becomes evil in this god-forsaken piece of shit film). All the male characters are either evil just because or stupid and subservient to women. It replaces the message of working together to stop an evil force from destroying something good and innocent with an in-your-face "Down with the patriarchy!" diatribe.

So attacking the fans, trashing the source material and counting on a new audience to replace them on old IPs didn't work?

that seemed like THE PERFECT recipe to success. astounding it hasn't worked out. maybe they should do MORE of that until it starts working?

A few loud, complaining-a**hole voices doers not constitute the Disney fan base.

How are the fans A holes when the star hates and mocks the source material, and the fans voice their concern?

Are you Bob Iger?

Who do you think the fans of Snow White are?

Let me guess, fans of Snow White in your mind are.........

Straight, White, Male, Manbaby, over 40 years old. The typical Disney princess super fan.

(wait.....your post history.....95% USA politics. Majority of posts about hating Trump when he hasn't been president for years. Your opinion should be ignored and mocked. You don't have an opinion, you ask other people what your opinions should be)

Another boring USA politic poster. And a massive surprise to see (not) you're also obsessed with a certain ex-president.

Now run off and ask somebody what your opinion should be about Snow White.

Lol at you trying to paint Disney fans as Aholes. Who are the majority of Disney princess fans? Women, gay guys, and children.

reply

[–] Kowalski (75520) a year ago

PRESIDENT?...YUCK...FUCK ALL THOSE OLD DUDES...YOU CLEARLY MISJUDGE ME...MY OPINION IS SNOW WHITE IS GOING TO BE BORING LITTLE GIRL SHIT...MY DAUGHTER WANTS TO SEE IT OR I MIGHT HAVE SKIPPED IT...THAT SAID...THE LEAD IS FINE...HER SKIN COLOR IS IRRELEVANT AND HER OPINIONS ARE HERS...FREE TO BE SHARED...JUST LIKE YOUR SHITTY OPINIONS THAT YOU ARE FREE TO VOMIT ALL OVER THIS SITE.

reply

[–] mitzibishi (1835) a year ago

>YOU CLEARLY MISJUDGE ME

The majority of your postings are "Politics" screaming and shouting over USA politcs.

>HER OPINIONS ARE HERS.

The fans are disagreeing.

Yes fans. WOMEN. Non-Whites also.

Forbes pretty much nails it:
https://www.forbes.com/sites/danidiplacido/2023/08/22/the-many-controversies-of-disneys-snow-white-remake-explained/

>One TikTok video from creator @CosyWithAngie that has been liked more than 1.7 million times expressed exhaustion with Disney’s shallow brand of “girlboss” feminism

@CosyWithAngie is not a MAN. Is not WHITE.

>A TikTok video by @ShikaLord argued that Disney princesses don’t have to be turned into "girl bosses" and that depicting every princess as an action hero is “boring.”

@ShikaLord is not a MAN. Is not WHITE.

Many many other examples in there and all over the web.

THE FANS ARE SPEAKING, and they're not straight, white, males.

They are WOMEN of every colour and race possible on planet Earth.

Because I asked you to elaborate, and you spoke about another topic.

I posed this question:

Straight, white, males??????

Kowalski (41600)
I AGREE WITH YOU UNTIL THE LAST TWO LINES...I DISAGREE WITH THE LAST TWO LINES.

Kowalski (41600)
NO...THE MAJORITY ARE NOT I IMAGINE...BUT THERE ARE A LOT straight, white, males WHO ARE FANS...I AM ONE MYSELF.

You jumped to a completely different topic.

Additionally, you said you agreed with my statement other than the last two lines, but then went on to disagree with the statements above and focused your attention on that, instead of elaborating on what you actually disagreed on. So in the end, you disagreed with it all lol.

You haven't clarified what you initially disagreed on at all, which was:

>Disney princess, and Disney classic movies are declining in profit due to which demographic?
Straight, white, males??????

You're lost in your own tangled web of mental gymnastics. Maybe run off to your USA politics lefty hug group, so somebody with blue hair can tell you what opinion to have today.

reply
