5 Times Disney Improved an Iconic Princess Look & 5 Times They Should've Left it in Animation

[@Erasureeraser]

Cinderella (2015) was the best remake that Disney has ever made, I've seen it countless times and I still enjoyed it till this day. Everyone was perfect in their characters and you can tell it was released in the time when Disney was careful in making their remakes. That ballroom scene alone has way more soul and heart than most Disney remakes

[@filthybonnet]

Yep. The first Alice In Wonderland was really good, it took inspiration from but was different in a good way. Cinderella knocked it out of the park. What these two also had in common was they weren't musicals. However they got sloppy and just copied and pasted and then decided to make musicals with people who couldn't sing.

[@jorgealejandro672]

[@ajpat9620]

​​@@jorgealejandro672 About the live-action Aladdin, that movie was quite of a mess, despite of good performances of Mena Massoud as Aladdin, Naomi Scott as Jasmine, and Will Smith as the Genie. For the fact is that there are problems within the live-action Aladdin movie: • the miscasting and awful performance of an actor playing the live-action Jafar. • Guy Ritchie is not a good fit to direct a musical film, such as the live-action Aladdin. • The weak screenplay. • The cheap-looking quality of cinematography costumes and production design. • The choppy and confusing film editing. • The awful and choppy-looking Visual Effects.

Real life Cinderella's dress was more than spectacular and Lily James wore it beautifully!

For the fact is that Sandy Powell is responsible of the costumes on the 2015 live-action adaptation of Cinderella, most especially on the iconic Blue Gown Dress of Lily James as Cinderella.

@@trinaq It's probably because older Disney movies were focused on entertainment rather than character writing--not to say the characters weren't written well, but not as deep as the modern era. By the 90s, this was very different, so remaking those films didn't really have much to offer.

As far as Aladdin goes OK when Jasmine was found out by the “police” and Alladins like that’s princess jasmine?! as he’s forced to bow down to her there’s so many elements of the remakes that are not in the originals and I would much prefer the originals I’m sorry even if they are cartoons optical sorcerer you forget in the original Jasmine also lies to Aladdin- so they’re on a level playing field she lied to him and he lied to her but in the original she was found out and forced to reveal who she really was

[@OpticalSorcerer]

@ optical I think you’re forgetting NOT TELLING SOMEBODY WHO YOU ARE IS LYING- you may be hiding who you are but in that sense that’s not telling the truth!!! She also said when they were in his little hideout she was the handmaid to the princess remember???And when she realizes who that “prince” is by putting on her bracelet on her without her realizing it- because the monkey stole it remember??she noticed wait a sec--this is the boy from this morning, and then she switches places with her handmaid which is also a lie

[@OpticalSorcerer]

@Vixen743 Um...that's not the same? Aladdin asks her where she's from, and she says "Who cares? I'm not going back." She didn't omit anything; she literally told him that she didn't wanna talk about it. She never misled Aladdin. Though the remake did add that issue, I can agree.

[@kriscynical]

I absolutely loved all of Jasmine's outfits in the remake. All of the costumes are phenomenal, really. On the flip side, I was floored that THAT is what they did with Belle's ball gown. It looks like a cheap ugly prom dress that you'd get in the mail after ordering it from a shady website.

[@madeyed2702]

9:58 to be fair, the one to truly blame for this dress is Emma Watson. I love Emma but her idea that Belle's looks should be more in line with a feminist aproach (Light & easy to move in ) was what truly killed this dress. Sure, she was not the one who designed it but i doubt she would agree to use a version more inspired on the animation (with a big puffy skirt & long gloves)

And she can't sing very well!

[@lifewithgabby5411]

Physically she was not the best choice for me. Belle is my favorite 🤩. I was underwhelmed

[@pufferfish4554]

Not only that, but her refusal of corsetry saying corsets are essentially anti-feminist. A load of rot. Maybe Emma Watson is smart, but there's a damn reason corsetry was necessary for evening gowns in the past. All those skirts weigh a ton and a corset or stays gives structure and helps hold all that weight. That's why her dress is in that lighter sort of chiffon material and doesn't have much volume compared to the original. Anyone who actually studies fashion history knows that corsetry is not this symbol of oppression its made out to be. It's no more malicious than a bra.

[@ElizabethMcCormick-s2n]

@@pufferfish4554Uh huh, sure!

[@pufferfish4554]

@@ElizabethMcCormick-s2n I say this as someone who studied fashion history and design. You can't make ballgowns without structure and even then they're not comfortable but people have the issue with the structure and not the actual garment causing discomfort. Not only that but tightlacing was not a common practise but a trend and not even possible until the mid 1800s and the live action film is apparently set in the mud 1700s were they would be using stays and not corsets anyway. Different things, same purpose which is structure. Not only that, but corsetry was worn by all classes, so working women also wore them. There had to be a degree of flexibility and comfort. Also, corsets were not just for women. There was also male corsetry that was certainly not uncommon. In one point in time, it was popular for a man to have puffed chests so they'd pad their chests and corset to make the effect more noticeable. In short, corsets are hardly the biggest example of anti feminist clothing at all. Hell, I would argue the modern day is far worse in terms of clothing.

I love Ariel’s live-action tail and hair. But they really should have stuck with the seashell bra. They could have made it incredibly beautiful with things like mother-of-pearl or clamshells and pearls. The scales just look off, like what is the point of a mermaid even having boobs if she just grows scales where a human would have nipples. What would be the purpose of fat accumulating there? It doesn’t make sense realistically-or at least as realistic as pertains to fish-humans-or stylistically. Belle’s ballgown is lackluster compared to the OG (and even the excuse that Emma Watson refused to wear a corset doesn’t hold up, since you can’t even tell if Belle’s wearing one in the original film!), but it’s not terrible. It’s just a pale imitation. That Snow White gown, though, is nothing short of god-awful! From the ugly hair to the weird way the skirt attaches to the bodice to the sleeves to the garish color palette, it’s hideous. Honestly, they could have just repurposed one of the walk-around Snow White dresses from the parks and it would look better than that abomination of fabric.

It's completely finished already (filming and post production as well) and did cost them a fortune. They would be dumb to not release it now, to make back at least a little from their expenses.

[@dannycarrington1601]

They should put it on streaming but cancel the theatrical release.

I like live action remake s the ones who got chores from animated classic ok keep them tell Disney and accept Carella and Christopher Robin and Pete s dragon

[@Mediafan-t7j]

Thank you for mentioning “Christopher Robin,” because it is one of my favorite #disney live-action remakes. So much nostalgia because Winnie-the-Pooh is my childhood.

[@APatricia-gs5yn]

Cinderella is the only one I watched. I fell asleep during beauty and the beast. I also avoided all the other remakes. Why bother when the originals are already fantastic.

[@MB-xl8nx]

Cinderella was the ONLY live action version that was any good. All of the others, never should have been made. This was mostly due to the horrible casting choices.

[@sunnygirl523]

love all jasmine’s live action outfits especially the blue outfit 💙💙💙

[@faithhudson4576]

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST IS AMAZING

[@calicokaels]

"Damned if you do, damned if you don't" is what this video exemplifies wonderfully, imo. In some cases people are unhappy because it strayed too far from the original, in others people are unhappy because they didn't change it enough. 😅

[@jemma50]

Yeah, some people just live to criticize.

[@calicokaels]

@jemma50 for real tho, they really do. I can't imagine living life like that, tbh.

[@jemma50]

@@calicokaels Me either. ♥

[@chelyvi7466]

That's why a remake when they are able to do it right (like in Cinderella) is so appreciated. It's not impossible to please the majority of people, the creators are just lazy that's all.

[@calicokaels]

@@chelyvi7466 "It's not impossible to please the majority of people." Maybe not. But let me ask you, how is one supposed to know what "the right way" is, though, when such mixed signals are given? Literally, both them choosing to "change it up" and "stick close to the original" were used as both good and bad arguments. I'm just pointing out how perfectly that exemplifies the saying "damned if you do, damned if you don't." Speaking in general terms, not just in relation to this video, some people ARE impossible to please and live to criticize. This video exemplifies that sentiment greatly. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@JamieVideoGamer]

Disney's work has been awful for a while now. They are too busy with their war with the prejudice groups. Which is why the quality of their work has suffered.

[@jimbo9208]

what war

[@shravanaragula4877]

Aladdin was really good too Jasmine glow up though a little forced was decently executed

[@just_in_key]

8:02 the bob in here is much better than in the movie 😭

[@rebeccachapman3707]

Mulan's matchmaker dress should not have been purple. Purple is a color of royalty

[@ElLoboNegro85]

Sorry, but the Little Mermaid Maid looks were all fine. They were good. The only thing that came short was her sparkly dress at the end of the original.

[@laceymcgrath3945]

They fell short of any kind of showstopper dress 😞 Really dropped the ball on that one....

[@jacobdrolet4262]

Amazing video ms mojo of best and worst dresses in Disney live action remake movies,fantastic job.

[@tojin]

Basically the live action versions all changed the lead female characters to be stronger and independent (instead of waiting to be saved by the kiss from a guy) to adjust to current woke trends. I don't think that's necessarily an upgrade.

[@louisefarrar6037]

Agree on Cinderella being the most outstandingly beautiful dress of all time and Mulan’s look being completely ruined. However, I liked Ariel’s outfits in live action. Both mermaid and human. I thought the dresses were actually quite modern and the pastel suited Halle Berry perfectly.

[@vilmalazzarini8847]

Disney should re-imagining Thumbelina 1994 instead of live action in CGI animation with sabrina carpenter as the voice of thumbelina, Alex Aiono as the voice of prince cornelius, Nicki Minaj as Mrs toad, James Corden as Jacquimo, Seth MacFarlane as Berkeley Beetle and Kristin Chenoweth as Mrs Fieldmouse✨🧚‍♀

[@laceymcgrath3945]

Well damn, you should see if Disney is hiring!!! That's a better idea than anything they've tried to come up with as of late. They got casting issues... But you dont !

[@hypnotherapy69]

the little mermaid being period acurate is a joke XD.

[@MinnieMouse-oc6tj]

I was never a fan of Belle’s blue and white outfit in the animated film, but I really liked the version Emma Watson wore. I would say the yellow dress Watson wore was neither an upgrade nor a downgrade. I would disagree about the Little Mermaid outfits, I liked the Live-action versions better than the animated version. I liked the live-action matchmaker outfit better than the animated one. The live-action Snow White dress is fine, except I would prefer if they kept it short-sleeved. And the Cinderella dress is a GREAT improvement to the animated version.

[@genkigirl4859]

Yeahhhh the dress was the problem with the little mermaid….

[@bkingsford3]

I don’t think Disney tries to please everyone. They are only interested in pleasing one side and recruiting their children.

[@Cinderella72291]

Cinderella's dress has always been my favorite.

[@sugarcubed9552]

I’m surprised Nala didn’t make the list.

[@virlinehonore9767]

Cinderella’s my fav. Her blue dress so gorgeous and beautiful!!

[@HudjamMan]

Well the little mermaid was one of the worse remakes/ live-action. I was disappointed in the whole movie from Ariel to Ursala.

[@Vixen743]

In the new Aladdin I mean it was a good movie but they didn’t have any elements of her turquoise outfit and they kept it really toned down with the colors you can tell by the because of the lighting that’s how they altered her outfits to make them seem more turquoise than they really were

[@authorfabu]

Next please make a Villain version of this episode. Maleficent or Cruella would be at the top for me.

[@Minidollcollector]

I wish we could have this type of list also for the accuracy of the Disney princess mini dolls outfits and if they match the cartoon

[@mr.x8259]

Ariel and Snow White were miscast that’s why the outfits don’t look good.

[@jimbo9208]

and what about Mulan

Cinderella is by far the best live-action remake and that blue gown is stunning. Lily James was perfectly cast. And yes, Belle's live-action yellow ball gown is ugly.

[@brandyloutherback9288]

They just gave Halle a pale blue dress and called it good!

[@lurica5566]

Recently just watched Cinderella again, always give me chills when they dance at the ball. So beautiful and majestic.

[@ShilohVarni]

The live action Little Mermaid is the definition of a DEI hire cast

[@ajpat9620]

That casting of Ariel in the woke live-action Little Mermaid is a total travesty and a disaster. That role [Ariel] should have gone instead towards to either Anya Taylor-Joy or Maya Hawke.

[@SyreneRoseXx]

Princess Belle has always been my fave Princess and all time favorite movie. I really loved the live action movie, and yeah, the dress hasn't really much improved, but i still loved it ^^

[@ShannaW-b1w]

I disagree with your take on the “outfit” Ariel “wears”. The scales make more sense as fish scales are iridescent in reality. A flat plain tail and seashells would have looked weird.

[@jucamovi1992]

Live Action Ariel and Snow White are both downgrade 100%, they look so horrible compared to their animated versions.

[@johnglielmi6428]

Why does disney insist on making live action in the first place? Taking their classics and trying to WOKE them up only takes away from the quality of the original!

[@ajpat9620]

Disney has been making live-action since in the 1990s, most particularly with the live-action adaptation of 1996's 101 Dalmatians. That being said, it was not until in 2010 that Disney began making a trend of live-action adaptation of movies from their animated vault, starting with Tim Burton's 2010 Alice in Wonderland.

[@johnglielmi6428]

@@ajpat9620 That is true, and every one of them has lost money for the studio. The Alice in Wonderland fims, are new adaptations of the classic story. They have nothing to do with the original animated movie other than a title and a few characters really.

[@aiyanahmed6967]

I actually like the new Snow White dress with it's long sleeves and I'm hoping for the Snow White remake to succeed despite the hate

[@laceymcgrath3945]

I'd agree, as many people are probably involved in it that are just looking to do their job. It would be in Disney's best interest though (&prob everyone else's), the that girl quit her condescending yapping. Not helping what already looks like a side show.

[@rebeccabiddix6319]

2015 Cinderella. It's the truest to the original.

[@LaineyBug2020]

I wouldn't say Cindy's dress was an improvement. It's a parallel move. Both Iconic, just different.

[@frankiegalindo980]

Belle’s ball gown wasn’t bad compared to Ariel’s blue dress in the remake. Ariel’s Blue Dress should’ve taken the number 1 spot in the Should’ve Left It Alone side.
