Forgot to add, You are spot on Zach. In fact, the only reason it is going to come out is they already wrapped on the shooting and spent the majority of the budget. Doesn’t take much more to edit and put in on Disney+.
This will never be seen by our family. We loved snow white and the seven dwarfs but there’s no chance we’ll ever watch snow brown and the seven freaks.
Disney needs to hire people that promote tradition and traditional values who have actually seen the movies they are remaking so they know how to cast the parts. They aren’t even getting close lately. If you want to make a story with a black female lead, great, go for it and use a story that had a black female lead character, you don’t make the little mermaid who was a fair skinned red head.
Disney can do as they choose. There’s a whole lotta people in the big wide world…and other than Florida, DeSantis the Mantis won’t get to rule any of them.
What’s the problem? If they want to change a few things, who cares? What crimes against humanity are being committed? Calm down, everyone. Save that energy for solving REAL problems.
They don’t just want try change “a few things”. This is clearly cultural appropriation and ruining intellectual property in the name of utter nonsense social commentary.
Speaking of cultural appropriation, I Wish people would feel this strongly about Floridas new black history curriculum, instead of a plot of a Disney movie but hey I guess you have to choose your pick your battles huh?
Stay woke and distracted. That’s exactly what the republican leaders want as they take oppress everyone.
Did you freak out in the 90s bc Belle was a bookish reader and modern in her intelligence too, or was that too woke for you also? This is what Disney does.
Leave Snow White alone it’s a classic all these new ideas is not what we want we know it’s just a fairy tale people get all hung up on for women’s lib and a woman want more we already know that so why go mess with a good thing it’s pretend it’s that’s why it’s a fairy tale we have enough of today’s world with enough issues we just want to get away and have a nice story for our children.
Disney stop while you’re ahead you don’t want another bomb like toy story.
Disney needs to start listening to their market. Everyone I talk with is tired of the remakes. Come up with something new…. and make it family friendly again! That’s what was so great about Disney to begin with. Adults could enjoy themselves with their children and not constantly wonder if they’re going to have to explain adult themes. Let kids be kids!
It’s a shame what Disney has become. I remember the days of my childhood where Disney was a brand that a family could trust. Now I don’t even feel comfortable letting my kids surf through Disney+ unattended. It is no longer a brand that stands for wholesome family values.
Just leave Disney characters alone. Stop making sequel to already good movies and cartoons. Make new characters of there own. It just does not work when you change them. Just leave Walts cartoons alone. Make new ones Disney theirs lots of stories out there. You have the amazing story tellers let them write. You will be amazed at what they can do.
Everyone from the gay community till the radical politicians that run this country. Picking on anyone is wrong but now you are forcing things some people’s throat and you have to come no better than the people that you have despised picking on you the one that was prayed upon is now becoming the predator
If the original is so good, just watch the original. Why would Disney remake the same exact movie again? If they’re going to reuse the IP they might as well add a twist and make a different movie for a different generation.
I thought the idea behind creating this movie was to tell the original tale using live people! If they want to change the entire meaning of this fairy tale, then go and create a new movie with different characters. Changing a classic film so it’s “woke”, does nothing but appease a very small fraction of Disneys audience! This is movie is one we will not see or take our grandkids to. Disney needs to realize how much of their audience (and we are DVC members also!) they are endangering losing.
We need to quit giving in to the WOKE group. I have no desire to see this movie in theaters in this form. Needs to have the story told as Walt wrote originally and if you want her to become a leader, do so after the prince kisses her. You could shorten the original and add to the ending.
Hollywood is erasing GERMAN folk tales! The tales are lessons to learn!
Everyone in the US is so “woke “, that they’re want to erase (or rewrite) our history! Now we’re co-opting other countries!!!
I am so sick of all these woke agendas . Now it’s a push to give females the masculine role in society. I am proud to be a woman and have been given the honor to raise and nurture the next generation. Enough already!! Dump Disney!!!!
So, I take it that you didn’t like Belle not wanting to be Gaston’s “little wife” and wanting “more than this provincial life”… Probably too woke for you
Or Ariel: Bright young women, sick of swimming, ready to stand
This is completely different their taking away the main characters of the film. No dwarves. Dopey, grumpy, all of them are more known then the actual snow white. The song is Hi Ho its off the work we go? And how will she sing the main song of the movie someday my prince will come if theres no actual prince?? Your stupid if you think that was a good decision by Disney, sorry not sorry. Beauty and the beast added elements to expand on the story but still stuck to the main script and so did little mermaid, your examples aren’t valid. We’ll see how your snow white movie does in the box office and guarantee Disney will have learned their lesson.
While I appreciate the frustration of Disney remakes not being a shot for shot live action traipse down nostalgia Blvd. I struggle to see why a movie like that would need to be made. The original, as stated in your own piece, is still a fountainhead for animation and still exists to view and enjoy. Watching the same thing just in “real (heavily cgi-ed) life” may be novel in concept but worthless overall and adding nothing to art or entertainment. I haven’t loved all of the Disney re-makes but the best of them are ones that have something new to say, a reason beyond a cash grab to be made. Vaguely gesturing in disgust at “woke” politics may get you “likes” from the right-wing outrage machine but accomplishes the same nothing the remake you want would. Time, society, life and art move in one direction, forward. There are plenty of things to critique about this and most Disney remakes without falling back on “wokeness” as the problem.
I would of been fine with a live action Snow White.
But to take away the seven dwarfs, that’s going too far.
On second thought, stop messing with my childhood memories.
Please. Give it a rest.
Isn’t the main songs of the movie about the dwarves and the prince? Hi Ho and Someday my prince will come. This doesn’t make any sense, these films are supposed be nostaligia.
The dwarves are literally more known characters than snow white herself. Its alot of people missing the point. The live actions did good at the box office because of the people going for nostalgic reasons. They changed the Hi Ho song which is the main song and the other song is someday my price will come and theres no prince. I could give a damn about the ethnicities of the actors, theres no dwarves, no prince and anyone who doesn’t realize what a big mistake this was by Disney is in clear denial. This will 100% tank at box office and then maybe finally Disney will learn their lesson.
You don’t get it USA, love from Norway, after George Floyd was killed, USA, Disney, tried to create racial acceptance and peace by basically make interracial movies, Disney characters, it’s psychology, easy to notice, come on everyone, by the way, I saw the new little mermaid 2023, guess, what ? she was far from white, but she was still awesome with red hair, I’m ginger too, anyways,vits obvious that George Floyds death had a impact on USA, end of story, they feel guilty, so they make non white movie characters, yes, have a nice life……
Disney, as developed, has now been destroyed. Leftists : You have accomplished your chosen mission ! Families are no longer able to view Disney productions as supporting good ideals. If bankruptcy of Disney was the Leftists’ goal: they are well along the way toward that achievement. The FORMER strength of Disney is evidently no longer important to the current owners/directors of the corporation.
Comments for Disney Abandons ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’ Amid Backlash
Tennessee
I agree with you, Zach.
jimthedj
Are they going to ever learn? Here comes another movie straight to Disney+ that no one will watch.
jimthedj
Forgot to add, You are spot on Zach. In fact, the only reason it is going to come out is they already wrapped on the shooting and spent the majority of the budget. Doesn’t take much more to edit and put in on Disney+.

Victor Nazarian
One word
sucks
Gary
Slowly but surely Disney is destroying Walt’s legacy and everyone who is Walter Elias Disney fans aught to band together and stop this mess!
Andrew
What a shame to the Brothers Grimm authors of the original fairy tale of the 1800’s
Phillip Yount
So the woke crowd and Disney are so biggoted that they dont want little people to have jobs?
Sam Miller
What’s the problem? If they want to change a few things, who cares? What crimes against humanity are being committed? Calm down, everyone. Save that energy for solving REAL problems.
Lin
They don’t just want try change “a few things”. This is clearly cultural appropriation and ruining intellectual property in the name of utter nonsense social commentary.
It is a real problem, make no mistake about that
Dave
Speaking of cultural appropriation, I Wish people would feel this strongly about Floridas new black history curriculum, instead of a plot of a Disney movie but hey I guess you have to choose your pick your battles huh?
Stay woke and distracted. That’s exactly what the republican leaders want as they take oppress everyone.
Benedict
Clearly you don’t even know what the curriculum is, probably from relying solely on the pronouncements of moroms such as Kamala Harris.
Rhonda Santis
What’s a morom, exactly?
Anna
Did you freak out in the 90s bc Belle was a bookish reader and modern in her intelligence too, or was that too woke for you also? This is what Disney does.
Xander
I agree Lin, well said!!!
Rhonda Santis
Do you even know what cultural appropriation is? Because this ain’t that. LOL Hope you’re cute.
Moo Moo
She’s beautiful.
Lin
LOL! You need glasses
Marie
Good
Lin
So it’s just cultural appropriation now. That’s essentially it.
Disney and their ilk clearly don’t get the message. Not seeking true love, but being the leader she know she is? Utterly pathetic.
I’m starting to think that Disney is being run by people from a competing company, who are trying to sink Disney.
There was a time when Disney was associated with good, wholesome entertainment and story telling.
But it’s now only synonymous with ghastly, narrow minded agenda BS
Yolanda
Leave Snow White alone it’s a classic all these new ideas is not what we want we know it’s just a fairy tale people get all hung up on for women’s lib and a woman want more we already know that so why go mess with a good thing it’s pretend it’s that’s why it’s a fairy tale we have enough of today’s world with enough issues we just want to get away and have a nice story for our children.

P. Burdick
The changes sound great actually. Honestly can’t wait to see this version of snow white.
Shade
What are your “chosen” pronouns?
Miguel
It’s a shame what Disney has become. I remember the days of my childhood where Disney was a brand that a family could trust. Now I don’t even feel comfortable letting my kids surf through Disney+ unattended. It is no longer a brand that stands for wholesome family values.
Nicole
Stick to the original story and keep the dwarfs the community of little people are even mad they are not included , and general public.
Aquanetta
Just leave Disney characters alone. Stop making sequel to already good movies and cartoons. Make new characters of there own. It just does not work when you change them. Just leave Walts cartoons alone. Make new ones Disney theirs lots of stories out there. You have the amazing story tellers let them write. You will be amazed at what they can do.
Kenetria Allen
I’m not watching unless little people are in it!!!
HG
I thought there was one dwarf and six “normies” in the movie. I’m still not interested in seeing it.
Shame
Everyone from the gay community till the radical politicians that run this country. Picking on anyone is wrong but now you are forcing things some people’s throat and you have to come no better than the people that you have despised picking on you the one that was prayed upon is now becoming the predator
Marie
Why not just create a new story with new characters instead of annihilating old favorites.
Roger Stevens
Drop it. Put the money toward something both kids and adults will go see. Keep to the originals.
Jonathan
Calm down, Zach. The 1937 version was a contemporary update too, and it will still be there for you.
Luay Shamoun
It is the worst thing you can ever imagine disney lost the magic they got the woke virus
RM
So disappointed about this
Brooklyn
Someone tell Disney to just stop making live action version of their films. It’s not working out for them.
Tom
It’s for the best that disney abandoned the movie since no one would go see it, costing them more in lost money.
Carol
Won’t be going to see this disaster.
Ghost
You all don’t need to make every anumated film into live action ones
Gladys
Leave classics alone
Anonymous
Another absolute flop in the making. Who are the geniuses making these decisions? Throw a few hundred million on the fire, I am a little chilly.
FriedDuck
If the original is so good, just watch the original. Why would Disney remake the same exact movie again? If they’re going to reuse the IP they might as well add a twist and make a different movie for a different generation.
Jeff
I sadly departed way’s from disney years ago.
Susan
I think it’s great whenever we get updated stories. Past should stay in the past,and appreciated..but the future is where we want to go

Train wreck of epic proportions. The only difference is that no one will even want to look at this one.
Sean
This is going to be the best Disney live action ever!
JFK Dem
Troll, woke people only keyboard warrior online and don’t support these trainwrecks
stlfan
We need to quit giving in to the WOKE group. I have no desire to see this movie in theaters in this form. Needs to have the story told as Walt wrote originally and if you want her to become a leader, do so after the prince kisses her. You could shorten the original and add to the ending.
Bob
Whatever
James
Why are referring to dwarfs as “little people community”. Are you that scared of backlash you won’t call somone with dwarfism a dwarf?
Carolyn
I hope it just gets canned or just put real dwarfs in it like the original.
Tina
Hollywood is erasing GERMAN folk tales! The tales are lessons to learn!
Everyone in the US is so “woke “, that they’re want to erase (or rewrite) our history! Now we’re co-opting other countries!!!
Shade
Ummm. WOKE is a vocal minority. I’d bet my truck that the majority of Americans don’t like it.
Celli
Why take a beautiful cartoon Classic and remake it ugly! I hate Disney! I unsubscribed from Disney+
Kassie
I am so sick of all these woke agendas . Now it’s a push to give females the masculine role in society. I am proud to be a woman and have been given the honor to raise and nurture the next generation. Enough already!! Dump Disney!!!!

So, I take it that you didn’t like Belle not wanting to be Gaston’s “little wife” and wanting “more than this provincial life”… Probably too woke for you

Poor Walt Disney turning over in his grave. New title will be Snow Person of Color and her 7 friends. She can’t be Snow White since white is bad.
Anna
Geez louise, such a victim you are
Shade
I wouldn’t even pirate this
DeNell
Another remake that is going to tank, big time.
When will Disney learn!

At least they’re making it easy to decide on what movies NOT to see. 😁

Dump Zegler. This movie needs Dylan Mulvaney as Snow White.
