User blog comment:AustinDR/The WORST Films of 2017?/@comment-26302585-20171229012133/@comment-2175012-20171229195412

The reason as to why I was okay with a remake of The Jungle Book is because it was old enough to warrant some revisions. For instance, by making Mogawli a tinkerer made him stand out more than from his original counterpart, Shere Khan was more threatening, etc. Besides, nearly all of the people that had worked on the original movie were dead, so I could see Disney hiring replacements. However, when you have a nearly flawless movie like Beauty and the Beast, then just rerelease the animated film than make a remake if you're ultimately not going to do anything different. At the very least, I liked the song "Evermore."
