@_Cinenerd_ no one asked if you are kid and quit your spam
@_Cinenerd_again. Why do kids like you spam this nonsense?
All of them!!!
Pretty much almost all these remakes are unnecessary here, and should need to stop being made now right here
little mermaid
snow white
all of them they’re all lifeless
I would put Mulan at #1, what a blatant character assasination. Also, it's wild to me that the kids' animated movie somehow captured the gravitity and severity of war more effectively than the mature adult version. 2020 Mulan is, in every sense of the phrase, a garbage movie.
Motto of the movie: You can do anything...so long as you're born special.
And because they made Mulan a mary sue
THANK YOU! Someone agrees with me! 😊
I agree! It was awful! I was so disappointed.
@@ashtree80 I hear ya.
Mulan not being in the higher in this list is a crime. It removed main characters, threw character development out the window, and retcons the entire point of the original movie by giving Mulan superpowers.
The problem is they tried to make Mulan a bit closer to the Chinese legend surrounding her, to make her more palatable to their Chinese audience. Doesn't help the movie was put together with slave labor.
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 96% of 290 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 8.3/10. The website's consensus reads: "Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio delivers fully on its title - which is to say it's a visually stunning adaptation that embraces its source material's darkness."[57]
Highest rated Disney Movie Remake- *Jungle Book-2016* -On Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator, the film holds an approval rating of 94% based on 332 reviews and an average rating of 7.7/10. The site's critical consensus reads: "As lovely to behold as it is engrossing to watch, The Jungle Book is the rare remake that actually improves upon its predecessors-all while setting a new standard for CGI".[117]
Highest rated Disney Movie Remake Razzie(0%-50%)- *Dumbo-2019* -On review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film received an approval rating of 46% based on 368 reviews and an average rating of 5.5/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Dumbo is held partly aloft by Tim Burton's visual flair, but a crowded canvas and overstretched story leave this live-action remake more workmanlike than wondrous."[10]
Lowest rated Disney Movie Remake- *Pinocchio-2022* -On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 28% of 181 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 4.8/10. The website's consensus reads: "Visually dazzling but soulless, the largely inert Pinocchio reaffirms that you should always let your conscience be your guide… away from unnecessary remakes."[41]
The live action remakes shouldn't exist in my opinion... they're all just cash grabs on animated classics
Disney should come up with new ideas instead. I agree also with remakes being cashgrabs.
💯 agree
101% agree
Absolutely right. I have heard they are releasing a live action stitch movie some time this year as well
Well, the live action Cinderella was actually one of the best live action remakes along with Aladdin and the little mermaid
techincally tim burton alice in wonderland isn't remake of 1951 movie but more sequel/retelling of original alice book that so happened to made by studio that made alice in wonderland movie 69 years before
I like the 2010 Alice in Wonderland movie.
Well said
I always feel the same way, but it’s always getting lumped in the same category as the rest of the live action remakes.
How many times has WM put that movie in remake videos?
2010 Alice was my favorite live action Disney movie growing up
I dont think 2010's alice in wonderland counts as a remake, its more like a sequel 🤔
I agree. It felt completely different and I think the changes were interesting. It was definitely one of the better live action movies based off an animated movie.
I feel the same way, and that it really has more connections to the Lewis Carroll’s books than the 1951 Disney animated version.
Exactly
Good Point 😊
Regardless if its telling of the 2nd book, Disney count Tim's Burton Alice in Wonderland a remake
I don't know about 101 dalmatians being a horrible Disney remake It was okay for what it was
It was a good movie I enjoy it This is the only live action Disney remake I enjoy
@@dragonnet289This is why no one like Patrick Mealey anymore. Ever since he and Tom Agliotti we're both hired, the channel is still permanently hated. This is why we're raging quit on WatchMojo. Ranker is better.

Which was waht? A home Alone remake but with dogs outsmarting stupid criminals
I missed when Disney used to be creative. Now seems like they ran out of ideas with these remakes
Same here, classic Disney is my favorite
@Reaperguy67 agreed now days most of disneys movies which are now disney+ originals are complete sh*t shows
@@Cinezillaaa when it comes to the shows .the mandalorian was good as well. When it comes to Disney, I prefer it when it was on VHS tapes.
Same. Now everything is a remake, a sequel or a prequel. Nothing is original anymore.
I like the live action "Dumbo" remake. However, I _do_ hate Timmy Butt-Hurtin's version of "Pink elephants on parade". As long they ditched the alcohol trigger for something else instead, they could've done it _exactly_ like the original version.
"Evil cannot create anything new. It can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made."

I prefer the Lord of the Rings Trilogy over anything Disney has to offer.
@@bighand1530100%
You're actually right about that. One such example I can think of is the Swastika. It's an ancient, religious symbol that dates back thousands of years. In many regions around the world, such as Asia, and in many religions, such as Hinduism, the Swastika symbolizes happiness, good luck, as well as well-being. However, after the Nazis adopted it as the symbol of their party, and did some of the most heinous things in human history, the Swastika came to be seen by many as a symbol of racism, hate, bigotry, genocide, and war. It's really sad, actually, and it sadly looks like the Swastika will never be restored to its original symbolism ever again.
Just like copy pasting the same quote over and over and over again.
@@motor4X4kombat That quote tells the truth.
Alice in wonderland is a sequel... Technically
Exactly
Regardless if its telling of the 2nd book, Disney count Tim's Burton Alice in Wonderland a remake
I didn’t think Aladdin 2019 was that bad it’s one of the more decent disney live action movies 🤷♀️
I cried when I heard about Robin Williams’ passing. That’s why I like the older version more. 😢
There's a lot wrong with this list.... first of all, Aladdin. My sister totally dig the remake. Lady and the Tramp? I don't know how it looks like in the original, which I will watch it later on.
I gotta disagree with you on this.
1. The actor for Aladdin sounded like he was reading his lines as if they were in rehearsal, just listen to how he delivers his lines.
2. They added several extra characters that had no business in that movie (namely Jasmine's hand-maiden).
3. The music was awful in terms of its vocals but its instrumentals were the only good thing about it.
4. As for Jasmine, they tried to play up the idea of some girl boss trope but it didn't exactly pan out and was a poorly handled due to her "coming out strong" song being nothing more than a dream sequence that went nowhere. She tried to play her character way too seriously.
5. Will Smith's genie comes across more like he is annoyed to even be there rather than someone who is caring and wants to help. His singing is bad because of his rap background; the guy struggles to sing higher or lower than a single note and it comes out as a more monotone, one-note, belt.
6. The actor who played Jafar was just so unconvincing as a villain, don't get me started on his voice.
The movie was bad, let's be honest.
As someone who loved Aladdin animated movies/series, Agreed it wasn't that bad. Definitely can't be compared to original but it wasn't as bad as people are making it out to be.
With all the sympathetic villain origins stories being made, I wouldn't be surprised if Gaston despised smart women because his mother was killed by a bookshelf!
You meant Gaston.
Or the Coachman despises “stupid little boys” because “stupid little boys” were responsible for killing his father.
Wait, really?
"Because books killed my grandma, okay?"
If Imagen if DreamWorks decided to make their villains sympathetic by making having Shen Becoming like that because a Panda killed his parents or Death ex lover doing this to him.
Mulan. That movie took itself too seriously. Same with Lion King.
The main problem with Mulan wasn't that it took itself too seriously but that Mulan's whole character arc was changed dramatically
Lion King was dead as soon as they thought it would be a great idea to cast Beyoncé as Nala. She can sing but she has NO acting skills.
@@Omega1867I thought she did ok. She was good in elba-larter-beyonce obsessed in my book
@@leonardolim8976 To each their own. To me, she came across as trying WAY too hard. I wanted to see Nala, not Beyoncé and that’s what it was. She wasn’t acting, she was basically playing herself.
@@Omega1867 besides the faceless expression I thought lion king did ok. The hyenas eating scar manage to beat its 1994 vers in horror level so it got that going for em
When it came to Genie, I was just happy Will Smith made it his own and didn't just try to copy Robin Williams did in the original
if he did copy him the movie most likely would of been a lot worse
Yet he ruined the songs, now they have certain parts of the songs have these weird pauses that ruined the song. Like 'Prince Ali' had a weird pause were Will Smith waited for the kings approval to enter his palace and it felt drawn out. The only good song was Arabian Nights
That was one thing I was scared about for the remake. I'm glad he had his own version of the Genie. Robin Williams is still the number 1 Genie.
Will Smith did not have a good singing voice as a result of his rap background. The guy could not inflect or change his vocal tones worth a damn, most of the songs he sings come across as one note monotone vocals that do nothing for the music itself. And he is working with instrumentals that are a step up from the original.
His genie comes across, less as a friend and someone who genuinely cares for Aladdin, and more like an ass who is annoyed to even be with him most of the time.
@@Kage342 though nobody could be as good as Robin Williams was as Genie
You’re insane if you think Aladin was a bad remake
nope, youre dumb if you think it was good
I gotta disagree with you on this.
1. The actor for Aladdin sounded like he was reading his lines as if they were in rehearsal, just listen to how he delivers his lines.

The movie was bad, let's be honest.
I laughed at Alan Arkin’s line “Wow. This is a disaster”.
I was like “Every live action Disney remake”
That should really say something 😅
I had no idea The Sorcerer’s Apprentice was a remake.
Niever did i
It is not. It was inspired by the animated Fantasia segment. I sure would like to know which "original movie"(therefore not the animated Fantasia segment)it was "re-made" off
Well it's not really a remake, but a movie which had some similarities to ONE story in Fantasia and a hommage scene to it. And honestly, I liked the movie quite a lot. It has some inventive and sweet action scenes, funny moments, despite the kid-oriented tone of the movie.
@@justhumenau6156I’m pretty sure there is a book series as well.
I wouldn't blame you.
I’m so tired of Disney remakes
Snow White is coming soon.
Aren't we all.
@@RobHorrorLive Which means things will get worse instead of better.
the remake of 101 dalmations is a classic. i wouldn't call it a bad remake.
I remember watching that when I was a kid. Pretty fun NGL
I agree
I'll admit the 101 Dalmatians remake is good. But I can't say the same for the sequel.
This is why no one like Patrick Mealey anymore. Ever since he and Tom Agliotti we're both hired, the channel is still permanently hated. This is why we're raging quit on WatchMojo. Ranker is better. I wish WatchMojo should clean house now, cause they're poorly runner like a David Zaslav organization.
It was fun as a kid. But re watching it is painful..
I don't know about the live action Aladdin movie. Sure the actor of Jafar could've been better (example: being dramatic as the animated version when he said his second wish). But it was still decent to me
Me too I actually liked the live action movie a whole lot.
That enough to say, but remove the cobra fight is a crime.
It may have had its moments but the movie doesn’t hold a candle to the original. Same thing for Will Smith, he’s no Robin Williams at all.
@@seankent9057 Well it's not easy finding perfect actors/actress to fill in roles when the original one passed away
It sucked! I love the original.
The only reason they were sort of bad is because they weren't necessary at all.
Nah some of them were just straight up bad to be very honest.
The fact that The Lion King remake made more money than the original at the box office is easily the biggest disrespect to the classic. 😢
Cry baby
@@mattiasolsson1523He’s not being a crybaby….. the original is a piece of art…. the remake is a piece of garbage! The only reason it made more money is because people love the original and wanted to take a chance seeing it as live action….. what a terrible mistake that was and it’s too bad they didn’t get their money back!
Eh..it’s only because of natural inflation. But I agree..the original is a masterpiece.
At least, Kimba the White Lion never got a live-action adaptation (yet).
That movie was artistically good, but that was it.
It's like if Gus Van Sant's Psycho made more money than the original; it's just not right
The little mermaid remake was also atrocious
Yah
They didn't added that horrible remake to the list in order to not be called racist.
The Little Mermaid should be on this list. I just found the movie disappointing. The ocean itself seemed so empty of other mermaids and fish. The animals also suffer the same problem as the animals in the Lion King: expressionless faces. Having Ariel forget that she was suppose to kiss Eric in three days was unnecessary. Replacing staling the wedding with crashing an engagement party was a downgrade. Having all of Ursula’s poor unfortunate souls disappear(especially King Triton) instead of being turned into bottom dwellers is confusing .
Well Beauty and the Beast was spared.
The Little Mermaid Is Good Compare To The Movies on This List and Plus... It's Such A Recent Movie, People Probably Didn't Got A Chance To Watch It Yet.
The little mermaid remake was disappointed. The expand story was one good thing to improve the character especially Eric, but i find the cast mixed and not charming as the original which is expected.
Beauty and the Beast was way worse than The Little Mermaid.
@@JMwhocares Get some help.
@@tommyfromtheblock Some of those people probably didn't want to watch another soulless remake.
Fun fact, the dog that play Tramp was a rescue dog
I think the entire cast of dogs 🐕 was! 😀
I liked the remake of Aladdin. The costumes were good. Jasmine got more screen time, and she gets the throne and the guy at the end. Some of the plot holes were erased.
Thank you!
At least in the live action version. Will's Genie goes into the details of wishes (and what happens if you don't word them just right)
Even though the actor for Aladdin sounded like he was reading his lines as if they were in rehearsal, they added several extra characters that had no business in that movie (namely Jasmine's hand-maiden), the music was awful in terms of its vocals but its instrumentals were the only good thing about it. As for Jasmine, they tried to play up the idea of some girl boss trope but it didn't exactly pan out and was a poorly handled due to her "coming out strong" song being nothing more than a dream sequence that went nowhere. The movie was bad, let's be honest.
@@Kage342 well, that is your opinion, and I will respect that. Just please respect the fact that I do not agree with that.
I still love the Aladdin Remake even to this day. The Little Mermaid Remake is also great too for me personally.
Agreed with both opinions!
It’s ok if you enjoyed the remake but them Making Ariel steer the ship instead of Eric was not needed.
As the old saying goes, "If it ain't broke! Don't fix it!"
The majority of Disney animated movies are fine the way they are without any live-action remakes necessarily.
Ugh! Disney needs to stop remaking the classics and make brand new content again!
Preach!
Watch they do "something" once they live-action everything they have (except a few)
@@Dremag_Gaming And that “something” is worthless.
Agreed.
They could start by bringing back 2D hand-drawn animation.
Never even heard of Peter Pan and Wendy
Same
Straight to the streaming platform
Don't bother with it.
Its terrible. Its makes Wendy stronger then Peter and makes the lost boys have girls in it
Saw it; I don't recommend it. While there are good moments (and is still a bit better than Pan) the movie's unforgivably dull! Even Captain Hook is dull.
HAHAHA you include 101 Dalmatians and leave out The Little Mermaid. In some movies you criticize the remake does the same as the original movie; in others, you criticize the remake loses the essence.
Disney shouldn't try touching The Princess and the Frog.
Nor Frozen, Tangled, Finding Nemo, Ratatouille, Wall-E, Brother Bear, Inside Out and The Nightmare Before Christmas.
The thumbnail lol 😂😂😂. Genie Will Smith bears an uncanny resemblance to the so-called "Megamind" from Megamind vs The Doom Syndicate 😂😂😂
The ones that I don't think should be on this list is Alice in wonderland and Aladdin.
Aladdin is the best live action Disney movie ever
The best remakes imo are The Jungle Book, Cinderella, Aladdin, Cruella
Hot take, I actually liked the live action Aladdin, although Robin Williams>>>
The biggest blunder in the Lion King is Timon and Pumba using “be our guest” as the diversion scene. The Animated version “Luau” was its best moment.
And cutting one of the best villain songs "Be Prepared"
(Hopefully to cheer you up)
Luau! If you're hungry for a hunk of fat and juicy meat
Eat my buddy Pumbaa here because he is a treat
Come on down and dine

Heeee's a big pig
(Yup, yup)
You could be a big pig too. OY!
@@joyunicycle nothing beats the original
The live action Aladdin was great
I think Cruella is one of the example of what live action remake should look like. It’s not a rehash of something that we have seen before, it’s something new and different with new origin story.
Heartless cash grabs, all of them. Fuck Disney remakes.
I actually like Alice in Wonderland. Making her older and a little more fleshed out as a person in her real life appeals to me.
But her acting is dry and emotionless most of the time. There is no depth-of-feeling, or any feeling for that matter. She is just bland, monotone, and generally has no emotional expression through the movie.
Aladdin was good what are we doing here lmao Will Smith especially I thought did a great job putting his own unique spin on the genie
same!
Aladdin was a good movie. Will wasn’t Robin but he was a good genie.
no it wasnt..
@@MrDarthryan You have the right to say it. But you don't have the right to force others to agree with your opinion. Not that you are forcing someone but I seen certain comments of others where they do try to force others to agree with them
I agree

These live-action remakes just couldn’t top the originals. Kinda makes you ask, “What was Disney thinking?” It’s like they didn’t care!
It's because of their greedy desire for the Golden Touch.
Disney making another live action remake.
Me: How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, Disney?
Isn’t that a reference to a SpongeBob episode? Or is it just me?
@@seankent9057It is from spongebob, which has became a meme.
@@robinolsson6152 I don’t understand why. I stopped watching SpongeBob for good over 10 years ago. And for good reason.
They keep making billions of dollars. So until people stop watching them, they aren't going to stop.
I agree with your top pick, but you didn't list the biggest reason why its number 1. See Pinocchio is a story about learning from your mistakes and becoming a better person through the punishments of one's actions. Pinocchio wasn't allowed to make a bad decision in this film. He makes it to school instead of turning around and choosing to go the other way. One could argue the cricket is the only reason he made it to school, but the fact he made it to his destination means the point of this scene is lost. The most glaring flaw has to be his lack of destructive desires once he gets to Pleasure Island. He turns into a donkey in the original because he was being an ass, but here, he was determined not to break anything, so where's the lesson? It fails as a modern day adaptation because he's meant to be flawed and becomes a better person through his mistakes. But in a film where he isn't allowed to make them in the first place, this film fails to adapt the original story
And they messed up Jiminy Cricket too
Well, in the original, Pinocchio was less of an ass compared to the other boys at Pleasure Island, so that’s why he didn’t fully transform and only grew ears and a tail. My theory is that a boy completely transforms into an ass if they reach a higher level of badness and considering Pinocchio was at a minor level, his transformation is much more slower than instantaneous as it was with Lampwick’s.
Mulan was a discrace as an movie and remake. I like Alice a lot.
How the hell did you forget The Little Mermaid!?
Tbf the original Mulan, the Disney adaptation is based of, has no comic relief either when remembering that it ended with her taking her own life so she don't be forced to be a concubine.
0:24 101 Dalmatians was great and funny 😂😂😂😂😂
Hello, Grimlock.
That one is one my favorites. I had that one on VHS tape . Lol
😮
@@EliastheTransformersfan I watch the live action version so funny 😂🤣
I sometimes don’t understand WatchMojo. Aladdin should not be on this list, also Will was the best part of the movie
I mean, he is playing his own Genie.
He doesn't even replace Robin Williams' performance at all.
Hell, I'm sure Robin is smiling from heaven, see everyone happy with how Will's performance as his own impacted. 😌
I think sometimes WatchMojo make their lists based on their liking.
@@vincentfichtler7758 they do that a plenty
They also put Elemental on their list of Worst Pixar Films despite the film being only recent and not even 1 or 2 years old to be a legit contender. If I had been Peter Sohn, I’d call them out on its placement.
The worst ones are Mulan for literally scrap half animated movie and The Lion King for his souless realistic animations
1:07 - 1:12 Except the Dalmatians talking wouldn’t have worked so well in live-action. I feel like it was definitely a smart choice to have them be mute and just let the body language and expressions of the Dalmatians speak their emotions and personalities without literally speaking. Sometimes “show don’t tell” can be an effective tool in movies.
The problem is the movie is supposed to be more about the dogs. 1999's remake puts more emphasis on the human interaction and less on the dogs who are supposed to be the stars.
The live-action version of Pinocchio was so bad, Guillermo del Toro beat Disney at their own game with his animated version! And won an Oscar!
And this travesty of a recreation won the 43rd Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Remake or Sequel hence why it is number 1 on this list.
They both also come from the same as year as Pinocchio a True Story, a.k.a. the home of “father When can I leave to be on my on own. I got the whole world to see.” by the way, whatever happened to “Pinocchio no way home”
If Comcast bought Disney back in 2004, only The Black Cauldron was remaked.
The Disney live action remakes peaked with the Jungle Book
Yah I’ll say 2015 Cinderella was the last great one
Jungle book is by far the BEST live action remake
And yet it is a tonal trainwreck dragged by bad CGI, lack of character development and horrible acting.
You are right about that part Buddy!
Jungle Book remake of King Louie 'I want to be like you" song was terrible because in the original King Louie was dancing, while in the remake he juts sits and doesn't move at all.
@@vetarlittorf1807 Funny how the critic disagree with you
@@MERCHIODOS Obviously you never seen the live action Jungle Book
Aladdin and 101 Dalmatians are far from bad remakes tho. Sure Will Smith can't replace the great Robin Williams but he was decent.
i actually liked/loved the 101 dalmatians remakes,the lion king
The ones with Glenn Close?
I liked em, too, and do wanna rewatch em again for the fun of it.
Ok I really liked Aladdin, I was hesitant that it would tarnish the legacy of Robin Williams but I think it was respectful and just different enough from the original.
In the remake of Alice in Wonderland, the Mad Hatter kind of reminded me of Pennywise
And when you're down in Wonderland, YOU'LL FLOAT TOO!!! 😆
Of course pinocchio is at the top of the list. The fact that Disney got outdone by guillermo del toro proves that they should've left this movie alone.
I had no idea that The Sorcerer's Apprentice was even a remake of Fantasia. I thought the movie was it's own thing.
It really was, that was a huge stretch that they made here.
I actually like the live action Aladdin don’t really think it’s necessary to be on here
So do I it was a mistake to put that on the list.
@@chieftone-tone591 ye fr there were far worse they could’ve put
I don't know. The guy who played Jafar couldn't look any more bored.
I first saw that film on my last day of 7th grade and I really enjoyed it.
Same. It was easier for me to compare the live action movie to the broadway or the Aladdin show at the theme parks, and all are great!
I actually like the live action Aladdin and The Lion King. the only thing that
I didn't like about Aladdin was that Robin Williams wasn't the genie but
otherwise it was a pretty good movie. I am just glad that James Earl
Jones was able to reprise the role of Mufasa. should of had Jeremy
Irons back as Scar though. the best and greatest Peter Pan movie
has got to be Hook starring both Robin Williams and Dustin Hoffman!!
unpopular opinion: I would rather watch the live action versions of both Beauty and the Beast AND Aladdin....I think the only saving grace for me with the original Aladdin is Robin Williams because you can't beat him as the Genie. Plus the songs they made for both live versions are amazing ("Speechless", "Days In the Sun", "Forever More", "How Does a Moment Last Forever")
The only live action "remake" I enjoyed was Cruella. It felt like a new take on the character and I adored the costume designs and punk rock atmosphere. Cruella was an entertaining main character, all the acting was fantastic, and the Baroness was a phenomenal antagonist.
It felt like a new film and not a remake
That’s because it wasn’t a remake, it was an origin story.
Almost perfect. The one blight; you started with 101 Dalmations (1996). A fucking classic!!!!
I personally hated the Beauty and the Beast remake. Emma Watson was very obviously auto-tuned whenever she sang and it was so goddamn jarring and even painful to listen to. And they butchered Belle's iconic golden ball gown and made it into a yellow ugly nightmare prom dress.
Basically all the remakes are huge drop off of the originals. And that is why animation movies should stay untouched
Maleficent doesn’t get nearly enough credit for being a horrible remake. While Angelina Jolie looked and acted the part, Disney seems to misunderstand that Maleficent is supposed to be a villain, not a sympathetic protagonist. I nearly walked out on the movie when it was her delivering the kiss of true love. SHE DOESNT EVEN TURN INTO A DRAGON; HER ICONIC BATTLE! And don’t even get me started on the complete character butchery of everyone else. At least other remakes on this list go for some resemblance, whereas Maleficent just threw everything that made Sleeping Beauty good out the window and pretended their version was better. No animated movie will ever match the visual display that was Sleeping Beauty, and no live action will make it any better.
As a side thought, I think Peter Pan is the antagonist. Someone who dismembers another human and feeds the piece to a crocodile isn’t a good or heroic person. He is a kid, and you cannot expect him to have the rationale of an adult. Hook is more relatable as the wronged villain over Peter who has no real redeeming qualities.
Can't believe The Little Mermaid didn't get on this list. It was bad and several entries were way better.
I respectfully disagree with Aladdin being on here. Citing Robin Williams(Rest in Peace) cannot be replaced. Well DUH. I think Will did an absolutely amazing job with the role he played. I do agree there are some minor gripes but overall, Aladdin was FINE.
I completely agree. Not to mention Jasmine was SO much better in the remake
Agree. People unfairly compare him to Robin Williams but Smith was not hired to do replace Williams but to make a version of his own
@@Denis-89and yet people complained about that ? but Will Smith is a such good actor.
Aladdin wasn't perfect in the slightest but I enjoyed it alot
I just wish the actor of live action Jafar did better as the animated version. Like, yelling at Genie to grant his second wish or sing Prince Ali Reprise
I disagree with Aladdin and 101 Dalmatians being on the list. I truly enjoy them.
Let’s see whether I’ll get roasted for this…
Agree I liked 101 Dalmatians it was my 90s childhood VHS tape
The ones that I disagree about this list are
Aladdin
1999 101 Dalmatians
Mulan
The Lion King
Alice in Wonderland
They were pretty good remakes. I love the original version of those movies but the remakes were pretty good too
I gotta disagree with you on this.
Aladdin
1. The actor for Aladdin sounded like he was reading his lines as if they were in rehearsal, just listen to how he delivers his lines.
2. They added several extra characters that had no business in that movie (namely Jasmine's hand-maiden).
3. The music was awful in terms of its vocals but its instrumentals were the only good thing about it.
4. As for Jasmine, they tried to play up the idea of some girl boss trope but it didn't exactly pan out and was a poorly handled due to her "coming out strong" song being nothing more than a dream sequence that went nowhere. She tried to play her character way too seriously.
5. Will Smith's genie comes across more like he is annoyed to even be there rather than someone who is caring and wants to help. His singing is bad because of his rap background; the guy struggles to sing higher or lower than a single note and it comes out as a more monotone, one-note, belt.
6. The actor who played Jafar was just so unconvincing as a villain, don't get me started on his voice.
Mulan
They played it way too serious, took out every single ounce of humor, turned her into a Mary Sue with superpowers, and tried to make it a bit closer to the legend which is dark and dreary to say the least. This was a movie meant specifically for a Chinese audience.
The Lion King
No heart, they went for realistic depictions of the animals in the wild and that hurt its ability to convey emotions since animals are all but incapable of expressing facial expressions. What their faces are showing do not line up with the emotion they are trying to express. Plus the story hasn't changed at all so there isn't anything about it to make is stand out.
Alice in Wonderland
Alice herself is awful because she has no emotion of any kind. Her face conveys little emotion, same with her voice. She is boring, bland, and honestly is forgettable.
1999 101 Dalmatians
Honestly, I grew up watching this and prefer the animated version. It does not change much of the story, except for Pongo's owner being a game developer rather than a musician. Other than that it's the same story.
Why is The Little Mermaid 2023 not included here?
Exactly!
Because it'd be considered racist to bash a movie with a black lead. Even if they only did that to pander to the crowd.
Because it was good. Lol.
@@JD10503your racism is showing.
It has a 3.2 out of 5 on letterboxd which isnt exactly a bad score. I guess it's just viewed as ok.
The little mermaid should be on this list too but everyone just acts like its the perfect disney movie just because Ariel is Black i bet thats the only reason why they casted that girl.
I completely forgot about the Pinocchio. God, it was terrible.
If Aladdin is on this list, it was DEFINITELY NOT Will Smith's fault. He did a FANTASTIC job of portraying the genie in his own way. Will really felt the pressure of having to live up to Robin William's genie. In multiple interviews, he explained that he would really have to do the genie in his own way, but still honor the memory of Robin Williams because of how Robin turned the genie into such a BELOVED and ICONIC character. Will Smith REALLY KNEW that the audience would be judging his performance as the genie and he REALLY KNEW that the audience would be very CRITICAL of EVERY LITTLE DETAIL. If the Aladdin remake is bad, that is NOT Will Smith's fault. He did a WONDERFUL job at bringing his own sense of style and flavor to the genie's character. He did NOT disappoint.
keep 101 Dalmatians out of your mouth!! also, being "too serious" was the least of Mulan's problems... turning her into a superhero & fundamentally misunderstanding the story was the main issue.
The Disney live action Pinocchio is defiantly the worst one in my opinion.
But I think Mulan is the 2nd worst.
Honestly... Aladdin is... okay. The 2019 version I mean. It's not the most offensive thing I've seen. So much so, I think this is probably the best the live action Disney movies has gotten next to The Little Mermaid.
The Little Mermaid live-action remake/adaptation is not good, and let alone that movie is a downright an offensive and insulting travesty. That's entirely the truth there.
You kinda skipped the elephant in the room, or should I say underwater?
Personally don't think 101 dalmations was bad and nor was Aladdin. Okay will Smith isn't robin Williams like no shit. But could of been worse. If robin had been alive he'd reprised the role
I don’t know about that . Robin Williams was getting old and they needed someone who could dance. Plus he was screwed by Disney the first time that’s why he didn’t play the genie in Return of Jaguar.
Haters of these remakes always seem to think, that their opinions of these films are some how defintive, and they can insult those who enjoy them.
I feel like 100 percent is the Realistic Animals talking with the CGI and doesn’t fit right with the Remakes.
I'm guessing the 2017 Beauty and the Beast remake isn't considered a worst remake huh? Probably a bit in-between as The Little Mermaid, right?
If he calls the current Little mermaid remake bad. People will call him a racist because they think it's because the little mermaid is black is why he's complaining
Please, Compare To The Disney Movies On This List... TLM and BATB Are Really Good. Let's Be Realistic
I thought it was
The Beauty and the Beast remake is the worst one of all.
Eh, it was mostly just the singing that was lame in that one.
I had no idea they had made a Lady and the Tramp remake. Honestly, I am glad I had no idea because this looks awful.
Also, the fact that the Little Mermaid didn't make it onto this list is an absolute crime.
Hand drawn Disney animation will always be the goat.
No Beauty and the Beast?
The Beauty and the Beast remake wasn't bad. Just unnecessary
Apparently not awful enough to make the list
@@gerdtt79it was stinking hot garbage. Bad singing, bad acting, terrible plot and character changes, hideous dress, zero chemistry, bad CGI.
2017's is an improvement. It tells the story better especially in the opening. I saw it 9 times at the cinema
@@JMwhocares 2017's tells the story better. The dress was beautiful but not as beautiful as Lily James' Cinderella dress. I saw the film 9 times at cinemas
I personally liked lady and the tramp butmy least favorite was Mulan and The Lion King so we're two great original movies that DID NOT need to be remade
I liked alice in wonderland 2010 it was good
But Aladdin 2019 was average and had less humor
Not even every Will Smith genie moment or Aladdin wants to purchase Jasmine in front of her dad?
I feel the Aladdin remake is even worse than the Dumbo remake, because I nearly walked out of the theater when I saw Aladdin because I got angry when I saw it! Dumbo at least was trying to be different and not being a direct copycat! Disney should stop doing anymore live action remakes, go back to original live action movies! Also please stop pushing sequels, Disney need to create new IPs!
Bring all the hate you want, some of these remake do i like despite not be better than the original and some remake i dislike.
4 words: Beauty and the beast
Sorry but Aladdin was GREAT! And Mulan was not supposed to be like the animated movie. It was more true to the actual Mulan fable.
I enjoyed all of these remakes. Now do a "Top 10 Best Disney Movie Remakes". ALADDIN is my favorite Disney remake.
No kidding, it was my sister's fave. I mean the "oops" from Genie? That was golden.
To be 100% honest, there should not even be any list featuring what is considered to be the worst live action Disney animated film remake anywhere at all. When the live action remakes of Disney animated films started production, it is pretty clear that a lot of folks thought these films would be exact live action copies of the original animated films by Disney. And, it does not seem like folks took into consideration that the very stories that Disney made popular came from various sources from around the world where it was known that a lot of the original source material was pretty dark in nature and there was not always a happy ending. For example, the original source material for the 1989 Disney animated film, THE LITTLE MERMAID, was written by Hans Christen Anderson before 1900. In the original source material, Ariel does not end up with Prince Eric and she dies at the end of the story. Also, too many folks who have actively embraced the original Disney animated films have got in their heads that the live action remake of the animated film should be done a certain way in their heads. And, if the live action remake does not turn out the way that it is not in that person's head, then that person is going to automatically see that the live action remake is going to stink no matter what.
