Honestly, they COULD have made a tragic modern black beauty highlighting everything horses have to deal with in the modern world and stayed in theme with the original being essentially an expose on horse abuse, but they just HAD to make another horse girl movie...

[@maliceruppert]

THIS! The movie was so frustrating to watch for me because there were like... tiny hints of an original/properly modernized interpretation of Black Beauty's themes, but they just didn't go for it. You could have used this movie to address mustang management in the US, or you could have made it about the abuse happening in the competitive horse racing, jumping or dressage scene, you could have made Black Beauty into a police horse as Abigail suggests... and in every such circumstance, there would have been interesting topics to address with regards to horsemanship and correct treatment of animals, all without falling back onto the plough horse/carriage horse stuff which barely works for the modern setting, and all without the utterly cliché magical horse girl bond.

[@laurareyes7040]

True, but every horse when bonding with people are different. Besides, there's SO many horse bonding movies/shows/books that has stuff tragic like stables on fire, or horses getting taken away from there owners. Like for example Heart land, Free Rien (Raven) and Spirit riding free. If all of them where the same then it won't be as interesting. If you really have watched or read spirit riding free, heart land, or Free Rien (Raven) you will notice that some sense or even half on the movie is the same. So conclusion that will make all the horses the same but just different colors and breeds.

[@TheBurrito171]

This probably was before your time, but Disney pulled a similar dirty one with the movie adaptation of the "The Young Black Stallion". They turned it into a girl and horse story, when it was supposed to be a prologue to the Black Stallion series, and had nothing to do with a little girl or the "plot" they gave it for the movie. While it didnt have quite the literary importance of "Black Beauty", it was still pretty disgusting. What makes me sad is that "Black Beauty" was actually very important for animal welfare as a cultural revelation in English society. It is such a significant and beautiful, timeless story - and this is the introduction that kids are going to get to it. Its going to ruin "Black Beauty" for them by being a piece of garbage. I have a copy of the original unabridged version, beautifully bound, and I highly recommend it to anyone with interest in the story to read it as it was originally written.

The Black Beauty movie that I grew up with was the 1994 version. Although I’ve never read the books, I could tell you that movie was probably much more accurate than this one. Also I’m sick and tired of equestrian movies always being about some girl moving to the country and despite having no experience with horses, manages to tame the extremely wild horse that nobody else could.

Girl who has practically never even seen a horse in the flesh joins an equestrian school/stable. Girl meets an unrideable horse and manages to be the only one who can tame them-oh and look, the horse just so happens to have a black coat in both series. Shocker!

Yea so am I but for some reason HeartLand is good 😂 and it has the same thing. Abused horse, girl who never rode a horse before and moved to country, teen drama and romance, girl rides abused horse and somehow learns how to ride. Like why is it so good but so annoying at the same time😭

[@whoismadeline]

It’s annoying, all horse movies have been like “A girl has a special bond with a wild horse” and then a snob is abusing the horse or competing against her, Some horse movies/Tv shows actually have a good storyline and it’s different like heartland is a bit similar but it works, then there are more original movies like the silver brumby which is based off the books like black beauty is supposed to be but the whole story was changed!

[@addi..._]

Heartland is a great show

[@didiask4927]

Heartland is honestly an amazing show

[@Alu_kardd]

I’ve been imagining a story where my main girl gets a thoroughbred jumping mare from someone who decides she’s too much to take care of, and she wants to take her to competition. BUT, instead of there being a big bad rival in the competition, her rival is the horse. Basically, she could be a really good jumping horse if she wasn’t such a hothead. The mare misbehaves much more than your average thoroughbred, so main character has to work with the worst problem horse known to man. Eventually they do meet eye to eye and manage to get along and get to compete with little problem. See my concept here? It’s sort of like a self discovery journey except with the assistance of a horse. It shows that you can do more than you’d expect yourself to.

[@whoismadeline]

@@Alu_kardd it sounds pretty good though

[@plexyglass_]

Make a horse movie where the main character is a young boy who's older sister is a horse rider, his mom and dad are horse riders, grandparents were horseriders, and he deeply wishes to be just like the rest of his family. He is not allowed to though, because he is disabled with his legs. He starts attending horse rehabilitations though (it is common nowadays for upper class families to rehabilitate through horses. And the main character comes from a rich family). He gets from a disabled boy with broken dreams to a horse racer. Realistic, motivational movie that no matter how difficult things are, there is always a way.

[@stefanikaye8710]

I feel like if they wanted to modernise Black Beauty they could have done something like having an OTTB (or STB if they wanted to include carriage related things and have it make sense) that finishes up on the track, is retrained as a riding horse and goes on to have various other careers of varying quality. That would be something that actually looks at the journey many modern horses go through in a way similar to the original that isn't just turning it into another "horse girl movie".

[@mwroach1251]

This series is absolutely necessary. Hollywood needs to be called out on their BS of romanticizing horse movies and repeating every horse trope we see in all horse girl movies. I'd love for you to tackle the Flicka remake next!

It was based on a book series called "my friend flicka".

[@Shadow_Draws_20]

At long last! We're finally getting a criticism of this movie! I've said it before and I'll continue to say it: Black Beauty has always been a gelding and mostly a thoroughbred! The book was written in 1877, why change it now?! Especially because the horses playing Black Beauty in this movie are ALL thoroughbreds of some kind, not mustangs in any way?!

[@Bindi342]

Black Beauty was a gelding. While his grandfather was certainly a Thoroughbred, Beauty himself was probably only part TB. It's very likely he was part Norfolk Roadster or Hackney as we was used primarily as a carriage horse.

[@rachelmclaughlin1491]

That fact that a remake exists is infinity sins in itself

[@kurai_sen7065]

Ah, I remember reading Black Beauty as a child and having my little mind blown by that story. I hadn't watched Spirit or many other horse focused stories yet, so this was the first story I read that was told from the animal's perspective. It really did make me cry at the end and actually got me into writing my own horse stories (of course, for a girl raised in a metro city in India, my story ideas were nonexistent). Ginger was my favorite character in that book and I just loved her so much. I loved that Joe in the book was a boy who made a mistake and ended up giving Beauty a fever. And that he grew up and learned at the end of the book when he reunited with Beauty. For me, the story really showed just how many people Beauty met, some good, some bad, yet always gave his very best because that's his character. Not gonna lie, even though I don't remember the entire story now (been over 15 years since I read the book), the impact the story has had on me has lasted till now and even into my irl interactions with horses. To see such an iconic character from my childhood turned into...this...is truly... unsettling. The movie was just out of place. It just felt like they grabbed things from popular horse media and shoved it into a single movie and slapped Black Beauty's name on it. The storyline was inconsistent and all over the place, and there was no real purpose in the end. I'd hate to think this is Black Beauty's legacy since I love that fictional horse so damn much. I'm quite unsettled by the current trend of making any horse related media essentially the same story.

Spirit is also told from the horses perspective, and not the spin off ones, spirit: stallion of the cimarron actually focuses on the horde

This is actually heartbreaking. I read Black Beauty as a child about a million times. It was one of my favorite stories ever and to see it turned into some bad cliché horse girl movie just hurts. And the effort they put into actually sticking with the story were so minimal its awful... I really wish they would've put some effort into making a true modern version, or don't make a modern version at all. A Black Beauty film based on the original would be so cool...

[@lauragarnham77]

Black beauty didn't need remaking, we can just watch the original, I don't remember it but I remember enjoying it and it having some very moving parts to it - no remakes needed. I LIKE the idea about a movie on 'Terry' and his search and rescue horse and the adventures/misadventures they have in the wilderness.

[@mads3951]

I remember seeing this movie come out and was immediately turned off by the 'city girl meets horse' vibe which is so overused. 'A girl and her horse' movie wouldn't be bad at all if they had done it right, but 90% of the ones that exist are just garbage and it's such a shame that this movie actually had a decent cast with SO much potential. Plus it's just frustrating that she suddenly knows everything about horses after spending a few days with Black Beauty. Overall I wish they would've stuck with the original story line and made some improvements or touch ups (As if it needed it, tbh.) It's the same problem with the new 'Spirit'. Movies such as War Horse, Black Beauty(OG), Spirit: SOTC are WONDERFUL examples of a friendship between human and horse. That's another point I'd like to make.... there's not enough movies for kids that involve a young boy and his horse! We need more of it for sure. But even movies like Flicka(2006) are really good and involves a girl as the main character as well. It definitely can be done, but it wasn't done well here at all. My ranting aside, this was a wonderful video. Well said.

[@loischadwick5152]

Black beauty (1994) is my favorite movie of ALL time. The music composed by Elfman and the fact that they stayed as close to the book as possible makes it a heart-breaking masterpiece. So...WAHT THE F*CK IS THIS SH*T ???!

[@thatequestrianqueen7449]

Don’t forget to add another sin because the movie creators couldn’t even be bothered to use a real Mustang. like that’s clearly a thoroughbred. Also why would she die so young she couldn’t have been old like she was probably around like 15 years old or something, like they could’ve at least shown beauty like growing old and then dying. But instead it just went straight from her coming back to Birkwhick and then her dying. This movie just left me with so many questions

Well, I can accept your opinions over Spirit not acting so very horselike. It is a cartoon fictional movie that had been taken with a lot of fictional liberties. It's my favorite DreamWorks Movie and horse movie as well while Black Beauty is my second favorite. :)

[@Erealenda]

This is a good video. Black Beauty is one of my favourite books, so of course I'm a bit biased. When I first heard there were plans for a modern Black Beauty, I thought it was a good idea. The themes of the book are very relevant to everyone who wants to work with horses in my opinion, but the examples are a bit "outdated", so why not adapt the story in a way that people can learn something about how they should be treating horses today instead of how people should have done it 150 years ago. It's not like there's a shortage of things that still go wrong in stables, riding schools and of course the whole show jumping, dressage, racing etc industry. One thing that always captivated me with the book and that makes the story even more tragic is that Black Beauty is a horse born in a save haven, trained with love, strong, kind, trusting. Whatever could go wrong? His new owners of course want him to work, but they are good people and he enjoys the work. When they have to sell him, they do so thinking they have found good new owners for him. Black Beauty doesn't get fucked up by humans because of some mean plot or villain, but because those that are responsible for him, that should take care of him, don't care enough, don't have the means to do it right or just don't know better. That's something that should be possible to be translated into a modern era. Don't own a horse without informing yourself thoroughly about what it needs. Don't push a horse beyond it's limits for your own ambition or profit. Don't own a horse if you can only afford to have it stay inside a very small stable with one hour on the pasture once a day. The horse will endure, like Black Beauty, and may still be kind and obedient with you, but it needs more to be happy. The love of the horse girl will not be enough, no matter how romantic it might sound. Black Beauty isn't a wild horse that "magically" falls in love with a girl. Black Beauty is a horse with all the best starting conditions that should have ensured a happy and healthy life. Black Beauty could be your favourite horse at the local riding school, the one that's kind and calm and great with kids. I think it is an important part of the book that while Black Beauty is of course special for the reader, he is in fact one of so many carriage horses that were trotting down the street back then and that had to endure the same torment. It may not sound as flashy and romantic as "tamed mustang", but that's kind of the point for me, you don't just have to bemoan the bad conditions at racetracks and the starving mustangs that are losing their grazing lands (but of course those too! Definitely those too!). You need to look at what you are doing, and how, and ask yourself if you are doing it right. When I was a kid, I went to the riding school at my town and learned to ride. The horses lived in small-ish stalls with very little times at the pastures, doing multiple lessons a day, and showed Weaving. I loved all the horses and riding and enjoyed my time there, I thought it was all normal and just how it was supposed to be. When I got a bit older, I started questioning the way the horses were kept, and at other horse farms I saw horses being way more relaxed, mostly living in herds, having real social contact with other horses. That is something that every "horse girl" could do - look at how their horses live, and ask themselves if it is a good way or if it should be improved. And that are some parts that I think an "educational" Black Beauty movie could have shown: things that can cause the audience to try and be better themselves. Sorry about the rant. Back to the story. I recommend the 1994 Black Beauty movie, although the pacing is sometimes a bit weird, it captures the story nicely. On a final note, while Black Beauty is really close with some of his humans and gets found and saved by Joe, the final moments of the book and of the 1994 movie (that always have me in tears) are him dreaming that he was still back at Birtwick Park, dancing on the pastures with his friends Ginger and Merrylegs...

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

I'm not sure how easy or safe it is to dye horse markings to make them all match, or if that would even have been in their budget anyway, but although I understand why there's that inconsistency (generally speaking horse movies have to have several horses that look similar, even if there's only one horse in the whole thing, for reasons like not overworking the horse, having stand-ins in case of illness, etc etc) it still bugs me, too.

I personally loved that movie. And here is my reason why: We’ve all read/watched the original so remaking the SAME movie would’ve been boring in my opinion. Yes some things didn’t make sense in the new movie but I did love that the storyline was changed up quite a bit because it made it interesting and intriguing for me to keep watching.

@@gingerskyyy exactly!

[@DudaMeras]

They could have made a movie about abusive things about horses nowdays, they have literaly many themes to honour the original story. This movie is just meh, just another horse girl movie.

[@ravinheartsstudio]

I'm having a flashback to when they tried to continue Spirit... That had pissed me off too.. I still have the original Black beauty movie, and the original Spirit Stallion of the cimarron. They were my favorites as a child. Watched each no less than a hundred times... Gotta love the modern world right? No. No you don't, that was sarcasm

[@ammarahawan6972]

First things first Black Beauty was bred on a farm, and wasn't named until he got sold for the first time. I think thats what bothers me most, cause he is a stallion not a mare!

[@SilviaFurmoonCOS]

Can we please just call this a new movie I used to like it but now I can’t yet I love your channel😭

[@dead_accounttt]

It would have been a really good movie if they stuck with the original storyline. To non-Equestrians too, because it’d just be more interesting and highlighting what bad things can truly happen. But, I could never imagine they’d ever make a tragic abuse movie or a movie that’s not- girl that’s never ridden + wild horse = Grand Prix Showjumper liberty Dressage bareback pro. Or perhaps at this point they could have gone for another storyline, like the police horse, or another horse rather than Black Beauty with Terry or another character on a rescue team.

[@lollipop2783]

We truly need more videos like this!

[@georgiacorfield]

reminds me a lot of flika, i loved that film as a child

[@annadau8612]

Please do more of these videos! ❤ Flicka (2006) deserves its own video. There are so many horse girl movies out there that would make great content for your KZbin channel.

[@aubs.eq.]

Lol i was watching this with my non equestrian friends and the whole movie was me complaining and my friend ps constantly telling me to shut up Here’s a few movies that you should do: Flicka Flicka 2 Flicka 3 The newer Spirit movie (EVERYTHJNG IS WRONG WITH IT) Walk Ride Rodeo Ready to Run

[@AngelicaNightgrove]

okay but i liked it!! It made me cry lol there were a lot of things wrong with it though, but to be fair it was a rendition . However i do agree that it is pretty messed up. They really should have exposed stuff about all the abuse and the struggle that horses experience, and they sort of just turned it into another horse girl movie. Much love abi!

[@Bees_Animations]

I’m sensing cinema sins vibes . Okay but seriously this is pretty good. I remember watching the movie a bit back and thinking that It was good it’s not good.

[@Cozybri0]

You should do the movie Flicka, I remember first watching the movie with my dad back when I needed to go to my orthodontist. Don't ask me why they had the movie playing in the office, they just did, but I thought it was a good movie at the time. Even if I find out the movie didn't age well it'll still hold a special place to me since it was one of the movies both my dad and I enjoyed watching to the point we went out of our way to buy the dvd the year lol.

[@flake505]

Mom: darling you want a thoroughbred Girl: yes mum everyone has a thoroughbred Abigail: that’s breedist 🙄 Me:🫡

[@natsukitatsumakiniji]

Loved this! Would love it more if Disney made a horse story that was actually about horses. lol Would you be up to review Simon Wincer's "Flash," or Greg Beeman's "Horse Sense"?

[@IceRiver1020]

The 1994 adaptation is so much better. I can't believe how long it's been since I last watched it. When I was a kid I would watch it, then rewind the VHS and watch it again.

[@AgentKJ06]

Add 50 sins just for the point that ONCE AGAIN teen girl gets sent to uncles house after parents are killed!!! SERIOUSLY literally flicka with slight book references 😑

[@Coraisthe14u]

They really couldn't handle a stallion being called beautiful 😭

[@dvmb.b1tches109]

I would LOVE to see a horse movie of a girl that grew up with horses and then had to move to the city at 13 and then moved back to the country at 19 and had to like re-learn riding and stuff and after she finally gets good at riding again, she gets in a riding accident and becomes paralysed in the lower half of her body and she’s just like so determined to ride and be with her horses that once she can move her legs enough to take a couple steps, she keeps getting onto her horses and no matter how many times she falls off she still continues to ride and eventually it strengthened her lower half so much she was actually able to ride and then she becomes like a really good rider again and competes in xc or sj competitions, basically it’s a nice heartfelt horse movie with a message to never give up, pick yourself back up no matter how many times you fall down, you never know what you can achieve if you don’t try🤷‍♀️

[@madisonbitterblanket9814]

Hello I’m a new sub and love your vids

[@Siennacla]

The guy falling off and getting is food caught had me dying 😂😂😂

[@sandydarkfall]

Oh my gosh... that moment at 10:16 ''What's next is she gonna be a carriage horse'' I burst out laughing because 1: that was a thing and 2. Your reaction was spot on XD ♥ I am gonna be honest. I liked this movie, tho it did not feel like Black beauty to me. Good movie but they probarly should have named it differently maybe just ''Beauty'' XD ♥

[@sophiethings8847]

LOVE THIS please do more of these

[@spencercollins2553]

I love how "beauty" has painted on star and has no black sock on the back leg. Lol

[@AlexTurnerIsHusband]

this made my day 100000000000000000 (i don’t know what that number is either) times better

[@BigBWolf90]

"Narration in a horse movie? Really?" Well...it worked in Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron & the 1994 Black Beauty

[@fleetingfury857]

this movie was shot in south Afrika and there was three horses that played ginger and 7 young thoroghbreds and 2 Frisians. At the end of the movie it says no horses were harmed but 2 horses were put down due to agression issues and some horses were badly handled two being my horses. I worked on a few seans due to how i know all this.

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

Sorry to hear your horses weren't handled well. I think they could probably dispense with that disclaimer and nobody would notice. I can't remember the name of the film, now, but there was another horse movie where horses ended up dying in preventable accidents (like stepping on long ropes that were tied around their necks, with the long ends trailing on the ground, while stampeding). That was denied, too.

[@raptorblack2269]

​@@ShintogaDeathAngelAre you refering to Flicka ?

[@ace2511]

if you want a kind of dark horse movie where it's actually the horse in focus then "war horse" may be for you. it was a great movie but warning it is sometimes brutal because ... yeah war

[@ajmoore9625]

Lol I love how they the quote from second chances from when the mean girl bullied sunny and said ginger was going to be turned into glue

[@EvanBear]

They do call her black beauty exactly once, in a typical "Roll credits" moment.

[@cetaequine]

I REALLY want to know why you didn’t find secretariat appealing, could you do that next?

[@xxdaretoloveladyxx]

Fun fact: There's also 2 older movies about black beauty :) Love this video lol

[@chelseakarsten8239]

8:37 you can see the whip theyre using to make ginger rear in the right top corner LOLLL

[@azelicoa]

Ahh! First Dunno what to say, but great video even though I havent watched it!

[@sleepyfaith]

I was so excited when it came out, and honestly im kinda sad that they transformed the story... *this is my opinion* I prefer the older Black Beauty movie.... T-T

[@bluenovacorgi8230]

The original black beauty was so amazing..im terriffied to see what they have done to it now

[@wildwaters8348]

Honestly can’t we just get a horse movie of a girl that actually knows what she‘s doing/ realistically learning?

[@Lexyperkins-d2e]

i love your funny comments. You should make more of these videos

[@average_amanda3884]

This is the first I've ever heard of this! Black Beauty was one of my favourite books growing up and this... this is just so awful! Your commentary made my day:)

[@EventingMustangs_official]

I do think Disney made a mistake, black beauty was supposed to be a Stallion not a mare. And BB is supposed to be a carriage horse not a mustang.

[@lioness2000]

Great review!🐎

[@Bluecatsea]

It's the same with the new spirit movie, they switch the perspective from the horse to the humans which wasn't what the orginals were going for. I loved back beauty, spirit and the silver brumby. They took the horses and made us see what they went through their eyes, it was much more meaningful.

[@T-J-C]

Are we really surprised? Disney has a habit of ruining our childhood stories.

[@butterflyeffect6791]

My mind refuses to believe that this movie exits. There is only one black movie in my heart and that's the one I grew up with. 1994! baby that's the movie in my heart, it made me laugh it made me cry and god I loved every second of this sooo I will continue to refuse that this 20202 version exits. side rant: Why is black beauty a girl? Why is this in America???? it takes place in English countryside

[@bearkub]

This movie is so confusing,, my brain cannot, it's like a fever dream to me. It's feels like a jumble of Spirit, Black Beauty and the Black stallion all in one mess of a plot and I can't unscramble them in my head fast enough. Like just looking at the movie in disney+ was like "okay so Joe Green like in the book but it's a girl, the horse is also a girl, the horse is a mustang like S:SC and we're focusing on her speed for some reason like in the black stallion?" AND THE HORSE IN THE MOVIE LOOKS LIKE THOROUGHBRED TO ME. Or at the very least, not a wHoLE LoT LiKE a mustang. The imagery and the character names are painful cause they just seem like a rip off of movies we already know. For example the scene on the beach at the beginning reminds me of many similar scenes from the Black Stallion. I haven't even watched it but I don't want to.

[@VivianaSilverback]

Does someone actually know the original book story? I searched it up, but i don't think it's the actual book ending: It says that black beauty was sold to abusive owners but then sold again to kind owners who treated him well, is this the actual ending or the true book ending sad?

[@sirthisisawendys811]

I have the book, it's definitely a must read it is amazing. But it doesn't really end with Black Beauty dying, he just ends up in a really good home in the end. While the rest of the book is sad, but the ending atleast isn't.

[@caril.9384]

That is the true ending

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

The true ending is Black Beauty being in a caring home with Joe - who also had his own character growth and sort of redemption arc, given that he nearly killed Beauty through ignorance but in spite of that, actually cared a great deal for the horse and does right by him in the end - but Beauty still acknowledges that he's lost friends and that other horses aren't as lucky as he has been (as he dreams about being back in the past with the tragic Ginger, and other lost horse friends).
