Jungle Book is easily better than the original. People who would take the animated one here are hard to take seriously. Most of the others, I could say sure, no way they're better. I personally do prefer Little Mermaid to the original though, mostly because I find Ariel in the original to be naive and unlikable in most every way. The remake presents her a good bit differently and she doesn't come across as just a brat. The love story aspect is also better in the live action than in the original.
