Snow White>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

As long as they put a modern twist on it (like they did with Maleficent) because if they just remake the original 1930s Snow White story in 2017 I'm not here for it, as much as I love Princesses...

Anyways, unlike a lot of people, I've actually been here for the majority of the live action Disney remakes.

However, this is the first one I definitely have to say no to.

There are some movies that only worked because of the time they were made, and remaking them more modern just doesn't work well at all. And I think this is one of them. I think Dumbo was meant to be a story kept in 1941 and bringing it into 2019 with live action CGI just feels... weird to me...

I'm not just talking about the LOOKS/animation. I'm talking about the story itself. Snow White was a product of her society's view of women. Like I love Princesses but let's be honest. She was just a male fantasy: she was beautiful, she was a servant to men, and she was a wife. And that's all. She doesn't have a true CHARACTER. Because that's the society she was made in.

If they make a remake of Snow White they have to put a modern twist on it. They have to give Snow White a PERSONALITY beyond just being beautiful and a servant to men. Because if they remake the story in the 2010s/2020s exactly the way it originally was, that's messed up.
