#dunston checks in

[yoshimired]

several years ago I had a terrible relationship-destroying row with a person I cared about very much and for some reason I had the poster for "Dunston Checks In" as my phone wallpaper so every time I looked at my phone in that soul-shattering evening I saw this fuckin ape looking at me while riding a suitcase

Bruh my nephew just asked me me about if I ever seen a movie called “Dunston checks in” lmaooooo

#I’m old bruh #wtf is this #94

[swan2swan]

I’m gonna say this once:

Disney has only put out one (one) live-action remake, and that’s The Jungle Book, because they also had a Jungle Book live-action film in 1994, starring Jason Scott Lee, Cary Elwes, Lena Headey, Sam Neill, and the mustache on Sam Neill’s face. Also I think King Louie was Dunston from Dunston Checks In. There were no songs, the plot was very different, and it disappointed and fascinated me as a kid.

Then they made another live-action version with Idris Elba and Bill Murray and...ScarJo as Kaa. Yeah.

That was a live-action remake, because it was a live-action Jungle Book but made fresh.

What everyone is calling “remakes” are actually just “live-action adaptations”. They change things, they reinterpret, they’re generally nowhere near as good as their predecessors, they’re probably mostly used for guaranteed cash injections and IP renewals, but they aren’t “remakes” any more than a high school performance of The Wizard of Oz is a remake. And mine had two different actresses for Mrs. Gulch and the Wicked Witch of the West (as many do). Also, Professor Marvel was a woman.

In summary:

While I understand the eye-rolling behind live-action adaptations, especially from greedy megacorporations who should pay their writers more and not cancel shows from their exclusive streaming services without offering physical releases, I also find myself thinking “I hope they make twenty more remakes of the movie” every time someone complains about “ruining the original”.

#it's all just the same story #you get to rank them all based on the adaptation level #I think there's just a primal threat that people perceive #a ''nobody's stronger than my dad'' sort of thing #you're all worried that people are going to love the new one more #they won't #but just...enjoy the moment #be like ''hey that girl really hit that note'' or ''wow that scene really translated well'' or ''hahaha wow they messed up THAT bit'' #just like a high school play
