Disney Will Continue To Defy The Meaning Of Live-Action With A Live-Action Bambi

Get the Full StoryBecause Disney is obviously behind on a couple of mortgage payments and in desperate need of , they re continuing to take all of their animated properties and transform them into live-action films. Their next one? Bambi! Now the next-gen of little kids can watch Bambi s mom SPOILER ALERT buy it in live-action! As if it wasn t traumatizing enough in animation. Also, there is very little live-action about these movies. That deer will be Adobe, trust.

The Hollywood Reporter says that Disney has hired Geneva Robertson-Dworet Captain Marvel, Tomb Raider and Lindsey Beer Sierra Burgess Is a Loser, Chaos Walking to write the screenplay for a come-to-life Bambi movie to go along with Beauty & the Beast, Aladdin, Dumbo, and the rest of their properties.

This is happening because these live-actioners make BILLIONS of dollars. Expect every Disney property to be made into a live-action update eventually. Except maybe Song of the South. They still don t want you to remember they made that one. They d rather you think they were responsible for Cats than have you remember Song of the South.

Insiders say the studio views Bambi as a type of companion piece to its remakes The Jungle Book and The Lion King, which were not live-action per se but certainly made to look that way. The two, both hits Lion King generated 1.65 billion when it was released last year , were made using envelope-pushing CG technology to create ground-breaking photo-realistic and immersive worlds of nature. The studio is cognizant that Bambi is less epic in scope and story and is not aiming to shoehorn a larger narrative onto the classic tale.

So breathe easy knowing that Bambi won t find out he s the chosen one and prophesized to save the world from evil aliens with his powers of cuteness only to be betrayed in his quest by a turncoat Thumper who was in league with the aliens the whole time and also secretly was the one who killed Bambi s mom. That s shame because that movie sounds a lot more interesting-terrible than watching CGI wildlife wander about a glade.
