i'm not esp likely to ever see this, but a glance at the reviews shows it's not a "photocopy"
but keep thinkin Tarantella is original

I'm never going to see this, but the biggest red flag is that the cartoon runs about an hour and this one runs about twice that.

In case you failed to see it upthread...
Morbs, you temper your fabled vituperation over the weirdest things.

Also golf clap for strawmanning all of the zero people in existence who ever called Tarantino original. Yeeeeesh.

i was thinking about this yesterday and its now starting to make more sense to view Disney originals like...broadway musicals or whatever and these remakes as revivals.

revivals which just happen to allow disney to extend the copyright on their properties

I hope I live long enough to see like the fifth or sixth iteration of a Disney remake where it's just like this crude and barely recognizable rendition of Pinocchio standing in a stark white field for two hours and endlessly repeating 'Hi, I'm Pinocchio!' to the camera from a variety of angles.

Pinocchio (2042): Not as bad as I thought it might be, Pinocchio's enunciation was flawless, and Disney has really upped their game on the presentation of the glaring void in which all of their films are now set. *** + 1/2*

My greatest dream is somehow stripping Disney of all their copyrights and filming everyone crying who will be hit hard in the bank balance by this, so I can watch these crying videos everyday for immense sexual pleasure.

I can't believe he got Mars Attacks! made. I can't believe he assembled that cast.

really liked it when it came out and it goes up in my estimation every time i revisit, some kind of lunatic masterpiece

i haven't seen it in years but every so often, the phrase "the international sign of the donut" pops into my head

It's definitely more Joe Dante than Tim Burton.

Wednesday sucks, right? Is it just me? made it three episodes and decided "nah". the humor doesn't work at all and this cutesy goth thing is so played out.

i was the opposite- i’m surprised by how much i really enjoy it … like there are a lot of dopey jokes and puns and fan service but the mystery is kinda compelling & i like all the main characters also there is a great scene where she dances to the Cramps “Goo Goo Muck”
