not anywhere near that level of volume or generation, but there's a build up, there's tension, there's color, there's motion, there's a soundtrack.

it's a brief moment that reverberates outwards and shapes an entire future.

This puke could win awards.

I do think you might slightly biased in favour of it, here.

That's a good point actually. You would think if they just leaned into the comparison the studio would be throwing money at them. On the other hand they probably just hate animated movies.

Just think of the tax rebates they could get by starting this project and then canning it!

Using the prequel to tell an american fairy tale of bootstraps and meritocratic rise is cute, but it falls apart a bit when you consider the boostrapper then leaves the kingdom to his offspring. That's the biggest conundrum of these remakes. They try to mash together modern values and antiquated (or "universal Jungian archetypes" as a frothing Peterson would say) and go "look! we made it better!"

It's like they never heard of Marcus Aurelius...
