It got a lower tally than Mulan!? I... er...
. I knew it was bad, but I thought more consoomers would be eating it up.
If we're talking about Disney villains who I would actually *like* to see prequel movie for... (and to be perfectly clear, I would *not* want him to be portrayed sympathetically in it, as he is and always has been unrepentantly evil. More evil even than Cruella should have even been from the start believe it or not.- He canonically murdered widows and orphans before we ever first saw him, and he even sang a song about it how much he enjoyed doing it.)
I am of course speaking of Professor Rattigan from The Great Mouse Detective.

I wouldn’t trust Disney not to fuck it up. Plus, it would be lacking Vincent Price.
I want a Wreck-it Ralph/Emoji Movie crossover.

I think people are getting sick and tired of the live action remakes/reboots.
I said this with Mulan, but why would I want to pay extra to see a remake of a classic that is already offered on the service?
And with Cruella, the whole concept of giving her a sympathetic backstory doesn't make sense and just undermines what a fun villain she was in the original film. We like to hate her! We love her because we hate her! Let us hate her damnit!
It isn't like any of the other live action remakes are using the original actors. Plus, I wouldn't even be mad if they made him gay or something, because I'm already pretty sure Ratigan was gay.
Disney live-action remakes are inherently pointless. Part of classic Disney's appeal is their unique art style and how they move. If I didn't know Disney made these modern movies, I wouldn't think they were made by them in the first place.

Also, it's not like Disney didn't have their own non animated movies: 20,000 Leagues under the Sea, Treasure Island, The Parent Trap, and others.

I watched Treasure Island recently and its one of the best adaptations of the original story that I've ever seen. Really good!

Disney is trying to probably get a tiny foot in the manga industry given how it dominates the American comic industry. Otherwise based on that picture, only positive is that at least the art will look good.
Company who built their brand of an animal mascots is confused when sympathetic portrayal of animal abuser isn't hit with audiences. Welcome to Modern Year.
Reminds me of when Disney would make crappy straight to video sequels of their animated classics. People didn't like it then either.

I'm convinced the remake culture is being done in conjunction with digital only media to create a cultural landscape where Disney can basically delete its old works from existence and replace them with politically advantageous modern reimagining with the added bonus of reselling its repackaged new shit because of nostalgia to unavailable past versions.
Haven't they already been in the manga industry over in Japan? The Japanese are among some of Disney's biggest consumers/simps around, and given that a Twilight manga adaptation exists, I'm not shocked by this.
Someone pointed out that it’s absolutely hilarious that Disney literally owns Marvel but still chose to outsource to Japan for this.
How do they make a prequel of a prequel?
Cruella from embryo?
No, the cover art will look good, they'll get an American to draw the inside and it will look amatuerish because comic professionals don't know how to manga.
