      Preach!

    Doesn’t matter. I still will not be seeing it.

  3. James

    You left out all the negative comments she made about the original. That she didn’t even like watching it.

  4. Jerry W

    This is a bomb, just like The Little Mermaid re-make. Disney needs to clean house.

  5. Mel

    You left out that she said terrible things about the original. Besides seems to me her past works were not well attended. No break out star in her just a snarky one. Not watching movie PERIOD

  6. Won’t see it. Love the original and the tv show Once. Doesn’t matter what stars they get, Disney and Rachel Zigler ruined it.

      Couldn’t agree more. Ziegler has been snarky and standoffish throughout. It’s not a good look.

      I didn’t have a problem with The Little Mermaid remake, except for the fact that they made her wear a red wig. If they were going to cast a Black actress, she should have been allowed to have her genuine black hair, not some garbage red wig.

      It was one of the many ways that Disney fell so very short of actually embracing diversity, in favor of some half a** version of it.

      Real diversity in Snow White would have kept the main character white, and would have kept dwarves in the movie, there are plenty in Hollywood and they deserve jobs too,. Even Peter Dinklage criticized their use of normal size people to play parts that were made for dwarves. (little people more sensitively these days). Simply calling them “Bandits” is a bad policy Band-Aid.

      It is unnecessary to recast every character as a minority. The majority of people in this country are still white, at least around 60% overall. If you recast every character as a minority simply for the reason of diversity, you’ve not made things more diverse, you’ve actually made them less diverse.

      You’ve also failed to represent the current majority of the population and offer them role models. Snow White kind of seems like the character you should leave alone. Not make so many changes to, it literally has the line “whose skin is white as snow” and the dwarves are members of the disability community ffs.

    Wow… You sure sugarcoat the whole incident. From an entitled brat into a misunderstood superstar

    1. I will not see unless they recast the entire movie. And return to the original story. If it wasn’t broke— and this story was Walt’s. Enough! Disney deserves a flop if they do not return to original.

    Ziegler could not even carry her role in Westside Story, and like most of her movies, it flopped. She is not talented, she is talentless. From what I am seeing, this movie is going to flop no matter what they do. And I would not take my niece to see it, if Disney paid me too.

  9. Stephanie

    As they say in Alice in Wonderland. Disney is going down the rabbit hole.

  10. Danielle

    Oh, God no, if they really plan on butchering this classic the way that I read it, then, please, don’t even make the movie

  11. Sylvia

    It pains me to see Disney yeeting family values for woke ideology. Seeing remakes of beloved classics being forced into outlandish casting and plot twists is like comparing Cinderella’s graceful glide in her glass slippers to Andre the Giant hobbling around in them with blood and meat chunks flowing over. Now ALL things Disney is banned to avoid conflict and confusion.

    If people don’t like the movie, nobody is forcing them to watching it. In my case, I am watching it because is about the first Disney princess and incels/grown up people are complaining just because Rachel said she hated the movie which she didn’t say that in all the interviews from 2022, she was scared as well with the park attraction and all that

    1. Roger

      Well thought out response. Good for you for being a grown up.

    2. ArtguyCarrol

      Excuses used as damage control!?!! Suck it up, admit your mistakes and fix the problem, that or accept your fate!?!! There was a time before the reign of Disney, & there will come a time after Disney!?!! Every Kingdom Falls!!!😶😑😐🤔😜🤣😅😂😆😁😉🙃👍🙏🏰

    3. Jesus

      Like I said, nobody is forcing you to watch the movie, that’s my opinion and don’t tell me to sftu

    No one like her, NO ONE LIKES what DISNEY HAS BECOME. DISNEY will continue to lose money. At this point there is no saving DISNEY.

    1. Oh really?

      Not going to watch any blackwashed reboots. And unless you support casting a white Tiana dont bother throwing out words like racism.

  14. Jonathan

    You forgot to mention that every movie Rachel Ziegler has been a financial flop. West Side Story lost money. My dad’s favorite musical and he refused to see it. Hunger Games really? Another financial loss for a studio that killed the franchise from any other sequels in the foreseeable future.

    Do you people even know either movies or business? Even for “journalists” you ignored all the facts. She is not a rising star, not a has-been, she is a never was.

  15. Alex De Large

    Zegler RUINED The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, she was 95% of any gripes voiced about that movie. She is a horrible actress, a very non-disney entitled brat and a bad singer. She will destroy this movie, and this is already a movie set to fail. Disney is really ok with losing money and cheapening brand further.
