Don’t get me wrong...

Go dilate

Wow. Disney movies have gotten a lot better.

They are too self aware and they pander too hard to the adult audience.

Corporate disney

>Is it because the new films are too self aware?
Yes, well part of it.
Them being self aware is a symptom of audiences (read mostly western adults) have gotten like really bad with thinking they're "too smart for this" when it comes to fantasy stuff, see shit like Cinemasins, countless ""theories"" trying to make kids stuff darker for no real reason, weebs growing up with ""deconstruction"" shows like Eva but not actually understand what the ""deconstruction"" was, and you get an audience of nitpicky asswipes that think they know movie critique.
(as an aside, I also just wanna blame shit like Doug Walker, who alone has done more damage than most have realized)

And then there was Shrek, Shrek is a big fuck you from Kassenberg to Disney, and it was a massive success, so Disney took note and aped it, hard.

So now in an effort to seem "beyond their old simple days" they ironically make their movies worse by focusing more on lampshading "typical Disney things" instead of just making a good fucking movie.

a great example of this is the useless live action remake of Beauty and the Beast, Lindsay Ellis did a great video on it but tldr; everything it added was fucking terrible, and attempts to "fix" the original film makes the story just worse.

That and Disney now is just about money, which okay they always have been, but Iger doesn't actually care about movies, he want franchises, he want to make money and it hampers all production.

It's a fucking mess and won't change as long as Iger is around, the shitty attitudes about movies are still around and there's money to "make fun of disney tropes"

basically, people find the fairytales 'outdated', so they make self aware fanatsies for the modern millenial audience.

Guys, can't you read? He said
>yell me why
YOU NEED TO SPEAK UP!

Don't care, with each new movie we get closer to the perfect waifu

we've moved further away ever since Tangled
