Jon M. Chu to Direct ‘Lilo & Stitch’ Live-Action Movie

Apparently he's the dude that directed Crazy Rich Asians. I never saw it but a bunch of people in Hollywood felt guilt tripped into seeing it a while ago I think.

Im actually curious about this one, I wanna see how they make the aliens.
Will probably fuck it up but we'll see.

>we don't know any samoan directors sir
>just hire an asian. it's close enough

>‘Lilo & Stitch’ Live-Action Movie
This feels odd. I never thought Lilo & Stitch quite had the 'classic' status that the other movies that they've remade have had.

Will there be a pizza over in Lilos house?

there's no way they're gonna make Stitch look good in live aciton, also what's up bros

Why is lilo and stitch so popular with asians

You're thinking more Tarzan and Hercules unfortunately. Stitch has the Pokémon style marketing behind it, of course they went for this first.

>episodic adventures of cute mascot and loli
an easy formula

Yeah, even in video games, they've failed to replicate what 2D easily does for Stitch.
Although, after searching online, some fan stuff looks really good. Pic related. (Obviously not with fur and all the other bells and whistles, but I meant from just an overall structural level)

What a fucking waste of money

This film is so deeply married to Chris Sanders' style that there's almost no fucking point. Literally every aspect of it thats appealing and interesting is because of Sanders.

they should have just gone with a CGI animated remakes not live action

Most likely they're going to also throw in some of the other aliens the cartoon introduced. There's no way they wouldn't not show stitch's girlfriend considering how popular she is.

is this a preemptive cohana thread?

You think that matters? There’s money to be made and Disney has to make up for all the money lost in the parks and theaters the last year.

Get ready for them to greenlight a fucking Robin Hood live-action using the same VFX they used for Cats

no just a random stitch thread unless we somehow get all the bros to show up

You are aware Lilo and Stitch is about "Lilo and Stitch", right? Not the expanded cast of spin off merchandise.

I just want a "Lilo grows up to be a Federation agent" space opera.

Naw mate, sorry.

>live action
is it too much to ask for sanders to come back in and draw more bellies... is it?

Ohh... ohh god no

Depraved, his talents are better used elsewhere

>I’m Commander Lilo, and this is my favorite store in the Citadel

Lilo would probably go to a normal school in this version and the hula stuff would either be given to nani or just relegated to background characters.

Nah, that's a core part of her character and the "muh culture" shit. They'll probably just give her/them the Moana treatment, keep the males in loincloths, but the women are fully covered

>another Disney live action remake after the shitfest that was of Mulan and Lion King
>but this time, it's a remake of a 2000's movie

What the fuck is up with Disney anyways? Why do they always feel the need to botch up movies that held up just fine for money? Are we going to get a live action remake of Chicken Little or Home Range or Bolt next? I'm honestly expecting Disney to go into the red if they keep pulling all of this dumb shit in trying to botch their legacy like this with shitty soulless remakes and sequels. Why does it need to be that hard for them to make something original and innovative?

>bellies

Although I'm sure Sanders is an equal opportunity degenerate I always pegged him as more of a foot/leg guy?

chris sanders is just horny in general lol

It's just going to be shitty CGI like every major movie now. I don't how CGI has gotten worse in the last decade but it has.

It's probably what mentioned, they fucked up trying to appeal to chinks so they're pulling out their ace early so to speak.

pretty much
but with younger characters he seems to fixate on bellies (as you should)

Cripplingly horny. I'm sure he was laughing all the way to the bank when Disney told him they're pay him to loaf around Hawaii drawing Polynesian women.

The movies that would make a great live action remake like The Black Cauldron, Atlantis or Treasure Planet are the least likely to happen unfortunately
