Wow I am way late on this 記事 hahaha.
For this movie I'm going to compare it a little to the original Sleeping Beauty and treat it as a standalone film. So for this movie and for the other remakes I'm going to not only talk about what I've been talking about for the animated movies, I'm going to compare the remakes to the originals while trying not to judge it for being not as good as the original.
Tonight's rewatch: Maleficent
Last time watched: Summer of 2014
How much did I like this movie as a kid?
I kinda liked it when I saw it in theaters but when I watched it again on dvd a couple months later I didn't like it anymore. I liked some of the new ideas put into it but I hated what happened to the characters, especially the Good Fairies.
How much of this movie have I forgotten:
The child actress who played young Maleficent was so...eh. And the creatures of the forest really had a little girl fly off to deal with a possibly dangerous human? The creatures apparantly have no idea how to take care of children, especially the 妖精 who "raised" Aurora.
I almost forgot how cool the battle between humans and creatures was. It wasn't the battle in Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe but I still liked watching it. I just wish it hadn't been used so early in the movie または been over so quickly.
This isn't something I forgot but I want to say リスペクト to the movie for doing such a good job on the scene where Maleficent loses her wings. It's so incredibly heartbreaking and the symbolism is even もっと見る so and I 愛 that it wasn't something just brushed aside and Angelina did a great job with her 芝居 in that scene. This is going to be messed up but I was actually disappointed when she got her wings back. I don't know why I don't like it, I really just don't.
I forgot that when Maleficent took over as evil ruler of the forest she just...did it. She just decided to declare herself ruler and the creatures just went with it. I know she was respected before because she was the protector of the Moors but it still shouldn't have been that easy. And we don't see much of a difference in the Moors afterwards. When we do see the Moors after Maleficent takes over she's with Aurora and everything looks about the same and the creatures act the same except for maybe one または two of them actually being scared.
The fact that Maleficent was actually just improvising when doing her curse actually makes me laugh a little. I can't believe I forgot that little detail.
I forgot how much I liked the score in this film. There's a few scenes where the songs sound off または didn't work with the scenes themselves but I loved the 音楽 used for the ceremony for the baby
Old vs New:
In the original Maleficent placed a curse on Aurora because she wasn't invited to a party, in Maleficent she did it because Stefan betrayed her. I 愛 that Maleficent was so petty in the original but I sorta liked this change.
As much as I liked Diaval's actor I wish the カラス stayed a crow. Maleficent in the original clearly had a good bond with Diablo without him needing to be human.
I will forever be angry about how this movie ruined the Good Fairies. Yes, there were times where they didn't agree but in this movie they're so incredibly immature about it and they were so neglectful of Aurora. And I don't even understand how Stefan could have trusted the 妖精 in the remake with his daughter when they only just met and weren't フレンズ like the 妖精 and Stefan were in the original. And the way they just brushed off her curse as her "only sleeping" and only cared about themselves when they had to find Aurora after she ran away was just such a slap in the face.
At first I hated the fact that Maleficent found the hidden cottage right away and was always watching over her but I actually like the idea of a dark fairy with horns being a mother-figure for this happy 歌う little girl. I didn't like Aurora's reasoning for why she thought Maleficent was her "Fairy Godmother" though, it felt a little cheap. To be honest if I was followed によって some shadow my whole life I wouldn't be all smiley and assume they were a friend.
King Stefan becoming mad in this movie is another change I find interesting and actually like. King Stefan was a good character in the original but he doesn't leave as much impact as the Good 妖精 did so that's why I'm not as angry about this change. When I first watched this movie I thought he was working on having an iron shield so he could protect his daughter later if the curse didn't work out but watching it now (with subtitles) he was もっと見る worried about himself.
Before rewatching the original I used to hate how smiley and constantly cheerful Aurora was in this movie but after watching the original I can see that this movie actually did her character right. That's how Aurora was in the original, she was a dreamer, she smiled, and she played with her friends. The only differences are that Aurora in the remake didn't sing and she didn't have as good of a relationship with the 妖精 like in the original.
The way the part where the 妖精 had Philip キッス Aurora while she was sleeping was even もっと見る lame than I remember. The 妖精 make Philip キッス Aurora only after finding out he's a prince when they knew the spell would be broken によって true love's kiss, not a prince's kiss. It felt like this movie was trying to ruin the original's true love's キッス によって going, "See? It wouldn't work because they barely knew each other!" when this movie actually missed the point. In the original Philip and Aurora had a real scene together, they danced and sung to each other and Philip escaped a 城 and fought a dragon to save her. The Philip in this movie was just....there. I still liked Maleficent's forehead キッス being the キッス the woke her, at least.
I wish Maleficent turned into a dragon in this movie too but Diaval as a dragon looked so freaking amazing! I don't have an actual problem with it so I can't really complain about this one.
Movie:
Even without comparing this movie to the original there's some parts of the movie that annoy me, mostly the scenes with the 妖精 because they're such horrible characters. I might like this movie もっと見る if there were some better changes for it.
Rating: 2/10
How much has my opinion changed?
My opinion hasn't changed but I can at least look at this movie in a somewhat different light after watching Sleeping Beauty recently.
Would I watch it again?
Maaaaaaaaaaybe
次 映画 will be Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World and CInderella :)

Rapunzel is too cute
dimitri_ and I decided to do a collab 記事 together and I think we had a lot of fun doing it! Picture credit goes to dimitri_ and I wrote the article. I apologize if I ramble a bit もっと見る than dimitri_ does, she has もっと見る self control than I do lol. Let's get started with the lists :)
dimitri_: Pocahontas & John Smith
I think they are wrong for each other since Pocahontas is hard to match with and that they ''love'' each other way too much, it still feels rushed to me. John changed his entire point of view that he was raised with when Pocahontas sang "Colors of the Wind." It's just...

Aurora finally reunited with her parents again and she just hugged them without 表示中 much emotion. It also bothered me how the 妖精 were still changing Aurora's dress color. But it's a nice classic fairytale ending nevertheless.
There was way too much going on that it lacked passion, Tiana was just all yay my dreams came true. It's higher than Sleeping Beauty because I thought the Down in New Orleans reprise was a really...

I Can't Believe I got #10!
First of all, I want to talk the movie overall. I didn't really like it because I felt that the アニメーション was amateurish and cheap despite being a prequel. Especially the Beast and Belle because they were not like from the movie.
The 音楽 I have to say that it's not memorable, but there one song I actually like and it's As Long as There's Christmas. So there was no problem for me, the others were not as good as the original and no Alan Menken.
Not to forget, Forte was a little bit of a manipulative psychopath. Because if he doesn't want to be lock up. Then what's the point of preventing the Beast from loving Belle?
The movie itself is very scary and predictable, especially when Forte appears and with Tim Curry's voice. I would recommend あなた guys not to watch this movie for those who have NOT seen it!
“Every path has questions Pocahontas; you must follow the right path. Your heart knows what’s right for you and it does not lie. You must ask yourself, who can you not live without?”

I've seen other people write 記事 on this, and I thought I should make one as well. It combines two of my お気に入り things, 音楽 and the ディズニー Princesses. At the end of each 説明 I will 一覧 my お気に入り songs from that soundtrack in order from お気に入り to least お気に入り song. I didn't include my お気に入り instrumentals in this article; I'm 書く a seperate 記事 on my お気に入り scores :)

Like the film itself, I don't find the 音楽 from The Princess and the Frog to be that memorable. Most of the songs...
