And more often then not the live action remake just makes you realize how good the original was. Today I will be discussing: Why a live action remake should be made and my personal opinions. I would love to hear your personal opinions in the comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why would you remake a live action?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>It can <strong>increase the fan base<\/strong> ( if is a movie based off a book people will go read the book more often then not)<\/li><li>You can <strong>expand<\/strong> on existing character and thicken the plot.<\/li><li> You can also make it  <strong>more mature or darker<\/strong> then the source material (which can be a good thing or bad thing)<\/li><li><strong>Improve the quality<\/strong> whether that&#8217;s the cinematography or special effects for example.<\/li><li><strong>Banks on nostalgia<\/strong>, these remakes often do very well because people who are familiar with the source material will want to check it out.<\/li><li><strong>Addition of diversity<\/strong> which is amazing and we need more representation in Hollywood!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Why most of these live actions are bad in my opinion:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Why remake an existing movie that <strong>still holds up to today&#8217;s standard<\/strong> into another movie. For example the original Lion King is still loved by many the animation still holds up today, therefore in my opinion it didn&#8217;t need a &#8220;live action&#8221;.(well its still animation just photo realistic)<\/li><li><strong>The animation stigma<\/strong>, yes animation is commonly used for children shows however there is this stigma that just because something is animated its for kids and therefore it is bad. Animation is a great  media form and shouldn&#8217;t have to be remade into a &#8220;live action&#8221; to be taken more seriously. Also animation is used in most live action moves in the form of CGI (computer generated imagery).<\/li><li><strong>Nothing new is added<\/strong>, why remake something identically in another media platform if you are not going to add a twist we then might as well watch the original.  However sometimes the <strong>new additions to the story are unnecessary<\/strong> and often interfere with the already established lore or logic of the world.<\/li><li>Just like how a good adaptation can bring more attention to the original source material. A <strong>bad adaptation can bring negative attention <\/strong>to the original, when I say negative attention I am not referring to criticism as that can be helpful for improvements, I am referring to when people only watch the bad adaption and then proceed to think that the original is bad. <\/li><li>The creators of the adaption<strong> forget what was so beloved about the original<\/strong>, it wasn&#8217;t just the amazing fight scenes or lore it was the characters and their depth. <\/li><li><strong>Watering down of characters<\/strong>, what this means is that they take one aspect of the characters personality for example character A is mean, which they are but just like onions they have layers. There is more to them then anger however most of the time in adaptions they don&#8217;t show those layers.  However it is completely possible that the original may not have much depth so I wont just completely blame the adaptions.<\/li><li><strong>Addition of more gore and violence doesn&#8217;t make for more of an interesting story.<\/strong> I am not saying that if it has gore its bad absolutely not, however once again going back to a previous point on the stigma that something enjoyed my kids is bad, so creators of adaptions add violence to make it more mature to a story that was good without it.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let me know what your thoughts on the live action remakes are, I am actually inspired to write an article on why I love animation as a form of story telling. Just clarifying there are many great adaptions out there and I am in no way saying that a bad adaption can&#8217;t be enjoyed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Thumbnail:<\/strong> Lion King  belongs to Disney, Avatar the Last Airbender belongs to Nickelodeon. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-green-cyan-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>~Stay Curious~<\/em><\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So lately there has been a rise in remaking animated movies or TV shows into live action for example Disney.
