Maybe wait until you see what the Bambi remake actually looks like before throwing a temper tantrum?
I was trying to make a joke in that post, but a part of me was genuinely angry about this news of a remake. And I really doubt that Disney will make any effort for this one. Bambi is already a most underrated Disney movie and, as I have said, it is very dear to my heart. Judging by the rather inexpressive visuals of the Lion King remake, I really dread seeing the same treatment being applied to Bambi. That being said...🙂 It is a wonderful opportunity for Disney to revisit the original Felix Salten novel (after all, they bought the rights for adaptation when they made the original Bambi) and maybe include some darker elements and novel characters like Gobo, Faline's twin brother, Marena, the young naïve doe and Lady Nettla, an older, grumpier doe but which does help Bambi once in the novel.
Maybe they could even bring the ever-so-good ending of the book (which I will not spoil, here).
😔😔 But...It is most likely that Disney will not give a fig about all of this and will just make a half-baked movie. Maybe they'll even scrap its magnificent, classical-sounding soundtrack to replace it with awful, awful pop music...I'm so terrified of it...They did something similar for Bambi 2 with a more country-like soundtrack with songs by Allison Kraus. I liked those songs in that movie, but it just wasn't the Spirit of Bambi. Hope that answers your question, anonymus.
PS: I think Atlantis: The Lost Empire is the one movie that could use a very good remake. :-)
