Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Live-Action)

[EricJ]

Sofia Coppola, it was Universal, we've been through this before.

So has Disney, when they tried doing that "racially diverse" live-TV version, three years ago.

[Ben]

But that’s not what you, or he, said. Sophia Coppola wasn’t involved with the Disney one (her one was to star Chloe Moretz, if I remember rightly).

These films also have *nothing* to do with "copyright extension", whatever that is. Nothing is stopping those films from falling out of copyright, though the characters can be trademarked and other usage of them could be followed up. But that does not stop the original films being extended, and neither do the remakes. All those do is create new copyright terms from their release…for those new versions only. Or else Disney would be chasing up that Pooh film complaining that it infringed elements from its 2018 film Christopher Robin…

[Daniel]

Yep, which still doesn't excuse the Pinocchio spoiler.

[EricJ]

Which now doesn't exist anymore. And so, unless we have childish grudges, we move on.

[Ben]

Oh, we’ve been trying…

[Daniel]

Release date: March 22, 2024. Yes!

Regarding the Evil Queen leak on the last page, (between the spoiler and misinformation) I think it's a fake. Looks too photoshop-y.

[Evergreen]

It's probably fake, but it looks about what I expect. I've always felt the Queen's design makes her look ugly for someone who's "fairest" (or wannabe "fairest," anyway). That proves it, because it even makes the gorgeous Gal Gadot look drab.

[Randall]

Different tastes. I always thought the Queen was quite fetching (for an "older lady"), and I like Gal's look in the image.

[Ben]

Hmmm…seems Rand takes after Alvy Singer…

[Randall]

"An insecure, self-reflexive Jewish comedian obsessed with death...?" Um, not so much. I just thought the Queen was hot.

[Ben]

Like Alvy Singer.

(You need to watch Annie Hall.)

Rachel Zegler on Snow White, Spielberg, and the Time Lady Gaga Fixed Her Wardrobe Malfunction

“People are making these jokes about ours being the PC Snow White, where it’s like, yeah, it is—because it needed that. It’s an 85-year-old cartoon, and our version is a refreshing story about a young woman who has a function beyond ‘Someday My Prince Will Come.’ ”

“and our version is a refreshing story about a young woman who has a function beyond ‘Someday My Prince Will Come.’ ”

ANNNND, once again, male Disney fans have to point out the "She already met him in the first scene, remember?" fact check...

[Ben]

Well, second scene, but, yeah…

Podcast interview with Rachel. She reveals a new song that will be called "Waiting on a Wish".
