And furthermore. The whole idea of remaking Lilo & Stitch—I repeat, for emphasis—LILO & STITCH, out of ALL the Disney movies, is a horrible, no good, very bad idea. Because of THIS:

Do you know what this is? This is a picture from a story book that Chris Sanders made to show to other storytellers at a Disney employee retreat. He already worked with Disney, which was coming back into success after The Little Mermaid and developing more ideas like  But he felt that Disney, in the 1980s, was

Spending too much time on big, formulaic ideas, rehashing the same thing over and over.

Scared to take risks. Scared to work hard on small, unique ideas. So guess what Chris Sanders did?

He created Lilo & Stitch. Unique. Watercolor backgrounds. New art direction instead of the Glen-Keane princess look. Aliens instead of animals. Modern Hawaii instead of fairy tales. They even produced it on an incredibly low budget in the Florida Studio, the second-rate studio in comparison to the one in California. 

Do you guys understand? Live action remakes, or any remake at all, are already a boring idea that we’re all tired of. We already recognize it as a cash-grab—not even a success-grab, but a cash-grab. 

But Lilo & Stitch was created with a belief in trying something new, totally original, and it payed off. It’s one of the only animated films from the “Experimental Age” to do so with lasting impact. 

And they’re taking a movie that was foundationally created to get away from safe, formulaic storytelling, and they’re recycling it. They’re repeating the formula. What’s more repetitive and formulaic than just…telling the story again?

something really hilarious about the “well I hope they do tiana/pocahontas/jasmine white next” takes from people who can’t stand the THOUGHT of a race swapped character in disney remakes, like you would be okay with it right? you’re crying your 40 years old ass about a fucking mermaid from a fairytale because her being white is the most important thing on this planet, saying your childhood got ruined and your dreams crushed because she’s black in the new movie that you can just not watch, but you would just be normal about a white pocahontas movie. okay.

after all, when they casted a very light skinned actress for nani in lilo & stitch the same people weren’t even mad at her being light skinned, they just went “see disney whitewashed her so we’re not racists they are🤪🤪” but then they were fine with it. not a big deal. “it's because we care about the original characters” but race swapping is apparently only a problem when white characters (with no ethnic background or story) become black. this is my opinion but. I feel like if disney went crazy and actually made a white tiana, black people wouldn’t make half the noise white people did for black ariel (and THEY’d be right to).

#and l’m not wasting time explaining why tiana or pocahontas can’t be white because I simply can’t believe people don’t get it by now #disney #disney remakes #tiana #princess and the frog #patf #pocahontas #tangled #rapunzel #tlm #the little mermaid #ariel #disney princess #halle bailey #avantika #nani pelekai #lilo and stitch

Twitter and Tumblr about completely changing Ariel's ethnia and race in the live action adaptation : "die mad, fiction is fiction, and her origins don't matter in the storyline anyway, who cares where Ariel is from as long as she sings ? Anyone arguing is a racist because life is literally black and white and so are opinions on adaptations, color washing doesn't exist you're just a bigot"

Twitter and Tumblr now that Disney casted an actress who is more native Hawaiian than they ever will be but is not "dark enough" for playing Nani therefore "not a real Hawaiian and white washing" despite she is not white

#personally I won't even watch this movie because I boycott live action remakes but the double standard is pathetic #'i wished Nani looked like Nani' oh I thought they were just cartoons and those who wanted Ariel to look like Ariel were racist ? #because for what I know the Hawaiian aspect of the story (dealing with tourism racism) will be respected with a native in the role then #but omg she DARES being lighter ! look at this point they never cast an actress who looks like the source material (look at Belle...) #so let us just be glad they took someone of the fitting race without checking a quotat list. so what #so lighter skinned POC/mixed POC are not 'native enough' to you ? pretty racist #like i hate Pepa in Encanto but I remember being frustrated people were mad they DARED depicting ONE light skinned latina #lol #tumblr #twitter #Disney #fandom #hypocrisy #them bastards ! #reaction image #race #the little mermaid #movie #lilo and stitch #ariel #nani #colors #black people #white people #racism #polynesian #it reminds me of people saying they were shocked a white guy was playing a pharaoh. it was Rami Malek who is Egyptian #or complaining they casted an Indian for Jasmine while Aladdin's place is ambiguous and it could be Indo-Persian for what we know

Sydney Agudong has ben cast as Nani Pelakai for Disney's Live Action Remake for Lilo and Stitch.

Personally, first off...no offense to the actress for be choosen by them.

If the idea is a positive message of "Indeed Families can have kids with different skin tones" isn't bad, but i do feel a letdown being a specfic character.

Maybe the oddest thing is sadly people gonna use it to mock how Ariel was made black and now that's what we get as return for support it.

That's awful. But it be awful if we take it personal to her as well, cause that's what they did to Berry and is still like it. The same way, is not we can't show discontent...because is is a matter of representation but we could make ourselves heard without go that same route.

Once More For the People in the Back:

- Lilo & Stitch is NOT about the evils of colonization.

It’s about a literal alien monster with no home coming to a planet and town where he doesn’t belong and being adopted as one of their own. Even after he destroys everything they love and build. Spin that into a metaphor for how terrible colonization is, if you can.

- Lilo & Stitch is NOT about the hardships people with dark skin inherently face.

It is about the hardships of people who lose family members and have to adjust to loving someone new. Nani is struggling to keep Lilo because she’s an 18 year-old orphan trying to play mom to a little sister who just needs someone to be her friend. She’s losing job opportunities because Lilo is trying to accept a destructive monster into their family with destructive results, not because she has dark skin.

- Lilo & Stitch is NOT about the evils of racism.

Lilo & Stitch is about an alien learning the meaning of family. Lilo explicitly demonstrates a hatred of tourists (not white people, just tourists, because Cobra Bubbles is implied to be a tourist in the same scene.) in one scene and that scene was deleted because it took the focus away from other scenes which made the point of the film more clearly. If a bad light is put on tourism, it’s to emphasize that Lilo has a problem with people leaving—”I remember everyone that leaves; I need someone who won’t run away; You came back; nobody gets left behind.”

And finally, drumroll please: 

-Lilo and Stitch is NOT about celebrating diversity.

Celebrating diversity is a fine message. It’s just not the one Lilo & Stitch is delivering. You’re thinking of Ice Age 4, where all kinds of animals make up a family; or Zootopia, where all all kinds of people can perform different jobs in society.

No. Lilo & Stitch is about what family means, and that is: unconditional love. Loving you at your worst and helping you to be better.

 The fact that the social worker is black, or male, has nothing to do with that main point. The fact that the Grand Councilwoman is female has nothing to do with the main point. The fact that one alien is skinny and one is fat has nothing to do with the main point. The fact that Nani and Lilo have dark skin has nothing to do with the main point—just like the fact that Stitch is blue has nothing to do with the main point.

Those factors might help in a peripheral way—(blue is the color the human brain associates with supernatural creatures; dark skin = Hawaiian = believably being brought up on the philosophy of ‘Ohana) —but you could still change any one of those things and it would remain Lilo & Stitch. 

By contrast, with a film that is actually about celebrating diversity like Ice Age 4, if you change the hedgehog into another mammoth you lose the point of the story. Or in Zootopia, if you make Judy and Nick both bunnies you lose the point of the story. Diversity is a fine point. Whatever. But it’s not the point of Lilo & Stitch. 

FORGET what you are hearing on Twitter in relation to the Live Action Movie. You can say what you want about how much you wish a certain shade of skin were representing the characters you love.

But if, to make your point, you try to argue that the original had ANYTHING to do with specific shades of color, demonstrating colonization and racism evils, or representing the hardships of POCs trying to get a job, you are being disingenuous. Or worse, you’re just tossing the real point of the movie carelessly over one shoulder so you can wedge a cause that it was never championing in where it doesn’t fit.

Try and make your point about how skin color and representation matters all you want, but you can’t honestly do it using the example the original movie set. The point of the original movie is just bigger and better than “skin colors should be given more attention.”

The more I hear about live action remakes, the more I HATE them.

I wish I could do more than Not see them. I want to find a way to bankrupt the greedy executives that propose it.

#live action remake #I hate them #they suck #I have not seen a single one even close to the original #except Aladdin #but Aladdin animated was still way better #did you hear there is a lilo and stitch remake? #i know they will ruin it

[idiosyncraticrednebula]

I still don't understand why they are making a Lilo & Stitch remake. There is nothing about the original that needs to be improved. It is just as great now as it was when it first came out nearly 22 years ago. I hate all of this so much.

#disney #lilo and stitch #disney remakes #txt #actually this applies to nearly all of disney's remakes #they were already great as they were. absolutely nothing about these movies needs to be enhanced #but then again disney stans have low standards when it comes to disney #so they are willing to accept anything from this company as long as it caters to their nostalgic needs
