There was a live action Jungle Book? wtf So Disney is just going down a checklist. Meh.

 

Uhh, where were you dude XD

 

The movie came out like a few months ago lol - heavily advertised everywhere even in India when I visited few months ago.

 

There's plenty of live action remakes coming out or have come out

 

Released
101 dalmatians (the live action one from 1996)
Cinderella
Maleficent (Sleeping Beauty live action film)
The Jungle Book
Alice in Wonderland
Alice Through The Looking Glass (Sequel to the first live action film)

Announced
Pete's Dragon
Beauty and the Beast
Mulan
Cruella (101 dalmatians reboot)
Tink (Peter Pan reboot)
Dumbo
Winnie The Pooh
The Lion King

 

(After searching up , it seems like Aladdin and The Little Mermaid are confirmed too).

 

As a Disney fan - I am excited!

Pete's Dragon already released. It's probably on Blu-ray at this point. And it was kinda already live action when it originally came out, wasn't it?

I enjoyed the Jungle Book more than the animated version.

On this I will be curious how they handle the curse set up, because I always found it odd a kid being rude was cursed along with his servants.



The typo made me think this was a porn. :(

The Lion King

WTF???? But there isn't even any people IN the Lion King!



After seeing the modern adaptation with the girl from High School Musical every version of Beauty & the Beast is worthless

You don't necessarily need people - it will be 3D animations in live setting. It's like jungle book without human characters.

There were only 2 people in the Jungle Book live action remake, the cast was mostly CGI animals. Just imagine a cast of nothing but CGI animals with real world settings and you have the Lion King live-action movie. 

 

"The Jungle Book’s setting is the dense jungle of India, but rather than film on location the production team used 100,000 photos of real-life jungle locations in the country to create the film’s environment almost entirely digitally (pictured above). "

Jungle Book wasn't even filmed on location, but the definition of live action is "action in films involving filming real people or animals". It doesn't matter if they use real world footage, it's not live action without something actually acting/performing live.



Speaking as someone who has never seen the original Beauty and the Beast animated movie, (I did see a play when I was in Elementary School), this looks like it'll be pretty good.



yea that's pretty meh, just a 1 to 1 adaptation from the cartoon film (and the animated objects look far worse this way imo)

Maleficent, the "live-action" spin off from Sleeping Beauty, was much much more interesting than this
