Please don't remind current-state Disney of this, unless you want to see yet another beloved franchise destroyed in an inconceivable way.
That seems to be Disney's only achievable direction right now. Massacring all creativity out of everything they own for sake of...I can't even tell anymore, but apparently it's somehow not even money.
We'll end up with a live action The Muppet Movie remake only starring humans.
That’s so meta I’d actually be interested to see how they pull it off..
Poorly, that’s a given, but beyond that.
cats style CGI fursuits, except now it's kermit
We would get things like Treasure Island where Tim Curry's part is played by a single Muppet. So yeah, not great.
In the wrong accent and cadence "high ho, Kermit The Frog here"
It's not just Disney digging the graveyard to sell more rotting remains and wondering why they don't go for top dollar; it's the lot of them. FREAKY FRIDAY is coming out again.
What's next? Non-racist Chitty Chitty bang-bang? Twin child actors again with yet another parent trap?
