Snow White (2024)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Don't make it gross...

Also, if you wonder who the paid shills are, it's everyone who reviewed this movie before today. Today is when the review embargo lifted, meaning all reviews that came out prior were bought and paid for.

Have any of the live remakes been good?

I think passable at best for a few, but most have been critically panned, and I believe all have been financial flops.

Disney did a hail mary and spent a lot for a last minute buy of reviewers (nice magazine you got there, it would be a shame if we stopped advertising in it), so they've all been glowing, so let's see if it will help in the long run.

All of those glowing (and paid for) reviews calling this the best Disney film EVAH look even more ridiculous now. RT's critic score has this film at 42%.

Well at least Peter Dinklage is pleased he eliminated a job for 7 little person actors.

My wife: Of course this movie won't work, they made the Evil Queen hotter than Snow White.

That's something everyone said. How the hell do you cast Gal Gadot as someone jealous of Rachel Zeigler's looks? That's simply not reality.

Definitely possible, but I was thinking it was because People's entire angle is about worshipping Hollywood.

Nobody buys People for hard hitting articles, just puff pieces.

So were the little people simply not cast? Or did they act out the scenes, and then Disney cartooned over them?

It's off to court we go! Disney faces discrimination lawsuit over Snow White snub of 'little people' actors who were replaced by cartoons in 'woke' £215m live-action remake of classic
...
Actress Ali Chapman, 50, who is 3ft 8in tall, said: ‘Seven talented little people actors could have played those roles in the live action remake and yet they chose to use cartoons. It’s an insult and discriminatory.’
Headline implies they were shot, then replaced. Ali's comment implies there was never any scenes shot or people cast.

So I guess never?

Before the movie was in production, some interviewer asked Peter Dinklage about the 7 dwarves and he shit all over the potential of casting little people. He used the justification that they're just people and roles like this are demeaning. Disney took his word as gospel. Remember, this was during the height of woke BS. Other little people claim Dinklage is an asshole and this was him pushing over the ladder he climbed up so nobody else could climb it.

Disney replaced the dwarves, prior to production, with "the 7 magical people" and one of them is a little person. However, after getting laughed off the internet when images of that group leaked and the concept of not having the dwarves in the movie, not to mention failed test screenings, Disney reversed course and added the 7 dwarves, however instead of casting little people, they went with CGI.

FYI, those 7 magical people are still in the movie, but are now bandits.

Rumor mill is saying Zegler is now suing Disney and a few other studios.

What she needs to do is disappear for a bit and work on humility. She can then start rehabbing her image through social media.

Going through with this would tell studios to never work with her again.

I'd say suing your employers is a good way to get blacklisted, but ScarJo did.

Wait... has she been in anything since?

Part of Ziegler's problem is coming out against the Jews. Who runs Hollywood, again? She seems like a really smart girl.
