So we went to see the somewhat controversial remake of the Little Mermaid this week. Now surprisingly there wasn't much in the way of collectables for this no cups or buckets they had one lil pushy thing which is pictured below. I didn't get one of course being I didn't want one.

So we went to see this I personally didn't want to form an opinion on it until I seen the actual movie Now I'm a huge fan of the original movie it came out when I was a kid and I remember going to see it and I remember watching the animated series also on Saturday mornings. I had the movie on VHS as a kid and now I have it on Blu-ray and I do have some Little Mermaid merch around the house So I was a little interested in seeing this being I had enjoyed other previous live-action version like The Jungle Book, Lion King and Aladdin, ect.

now did I love it, No. Did I hate it, No.

I would say it was pretty good and I would say it was better then I thought it would be especially better then the internet wants you to think it is.

Now there is some problems with it which I will get into and some of the good things. Now of course they did change some things in the movie of course in regards to story being I think its more about there are certain things you can easily do in animation that you can't do in Live-Action and some scenes were removed and replaced with others. I would honestly say that this follows the original animated movie about 85-90% alot of it will look and sound very familiar.

There is alot of scenes that are peppered in there that are different, but I would say from the start until Ariel gets her legs and arrives on land it is very similar to the original movie They changed a few things around there where she is at the castle and spending time with Eric its still recognizable just slightly different at parts then from the "Kiss the Girl" sequence until the end its very similar to the original again. I would say it is somewhat faithful to the original movie you can kinda tell what the new bits are when you watch it.

Now one thing this movie has going for it of course is the visuals and it is very nice visually I would have to say all the underwater scenes are pretty much amazing I think it is pretty much on par with Avatar the way of Water in terms of the underwater sea life and environments it does look all extremely realistic and impressive also the Mermaids/Merpeople effects are amazing as well it is extremely nice. Also Ursula was done amazingly well the testicles and everything were perfect! Now I know alot of people complained about the Live-Action versions of characters like Sebastian and Flounder I had no problems with the Live-Action Sebastian I thought he was really well done and voiced well and everything as for say Flounder I thought the voice work was good on him but at the same time I didn't think he looked like Flounder at all! being in that he is like white with black stripes? but in the original he was Yellow with blue stripes I don't see why they couldn't just color him yellow and give him blue stripes?

Now one thing that that I didn't really like was the voice of Scuttle I don't think Awkwafina was right for that. I don't know why I just feel like it didn't fit. as for the other cast I thought Jonah Hauer-King was great as Eric Art Malik as Grimsby was great and the one that surprised me was Melissa McCarthy I'm not a big fan of Melissa McCarthy I feel in every movie I seen her in it always seems like its just Melissa McCarthy playing Melissa McCarthy like she is just being herself but in this it was completely different she was Ursula she looked the part and she acted the part. She looked just like Ursula and I believe that she was perfectly cast for this role and she played it excellently. While watching it your not thinking about Melissa McCarthy its one 100% Ursula. Now as for the most controversial casting choice Halle Bailey as Ariel I know alot of people are mad about this personally I thought she did a pretty good job but with that said if I were to make a live action Little Mermaid I probably wouldn't cast her as Ariel and that is just my opinion being that everyone would have their own idea of how the character should or shouldn't be but other then that I thought everyone did do a pretty amazing job

as for the music its pretty much all in there! I thought their renditions of the classic songs were great "Part of Your World" "Under the Sea" "Kiss the Girl" and "Poor Unfortunate Souls" were all beautifully done. I loved all that and the audience that we seen it with was totally into the musical moment when they got to them. and of course there was a few new ones too but I didn't think alot of them where needed like the Song that Eric sings was kinda unnecessary and pretty much just a time filler I thought. and the near the end called Scuttlebutt its alright but again I feel that it was kinda unnecessary and it was basically meant to be pretty much background noise for the scene. but other then that everything else was really well done.

so personally I would say it is a good adaptation of the Animated movie they did follow the animated one somewhat closely with not too many changes but like I said it was pretty good its not the best and of course not the worse. I would just recommend if you are curious and want to see it then go see it and make up your own mind and if you don't want to then just don't go see it thats it. Also the only collectable they seemed to have was these lil plush Ariel dolls.

Instead of telling men to repress their emotions to appear stronger we should encourage them to sing incredibly dramatic ballads to process their emotions like in fictional movies. Maybe the world would heal faster. And also it would be very funny.

These are my personal favorites.

Just here to remind you that this was their first real “conversation”

Ariel, making him smile OR as I’d like to call it: Prince Eric, flexing his dimples & looking like a lovesick puppy.

Part 1 of ?

when you look up the definition of simpdom in their little island kingdom i hope prince eric shows up. i hope dimples mcgee who had his ass saved and decided actually, that's my future wife. TIME MAY CHANGE THE SHORELINE, BUT TIME WILL NOT CHANGE ME. even aside from his kindness to ariel when she couldn't speak, when he found out she was a mermaid, he just held her tighter. dude had his mind made up. married her so fast, man. love me a dimples mcprince ericgee.

The crowd that got mad at Ariel being black is real quiet about Chris Pratt (a non Italian) playing Mario. I thought y’all cared about characters backgrounds?

My favourite line from the new The Little Mermaid movie:

"You shouldn't have had to give up your voice to be heard."

you’d think a black person born in 2000 wouldn’t have to give the same answer as a black person born in the year 1945 but here we are
