That's not a very good score for a family Disney movie. RT isn't a score aggregator, it's thumbs up / thumbs down.

based on what ive seen they have failed to grasp lilos character

seems she is not acting out near as much which is a thing that was very realistic for a traumatized 6 year old

Upon watching as an adult, Lilo is definitely on the spectrum and I don't know if Disney is gonna be "brave enough" to show her being so clearly on the spectrum in live action. That is disappointing since it is so good for representation and so many youth I work with said that Lilo was one of the first characters they felt represented them. =/

I'll answer with a question.

How do you think the movie rolls with the removal of Captain Gantu, the one character you can arguably say is the main antagonist?

Oh, and how Nani ends the movie is also borderline character assassination, albeit less so, but still rough.

More and more word of mouth I hear about the movie, the more I'm beginning to fear that's going to be yet another crappy live action Disney movie. They add in a lot of unnecessary characters that would otherwise take the role of the characters in the animated movie and downgraded a lot of the characters in the process. My daughter wants to watch this movie so badly in theaters with her friends, so I just hope she doesn't catch me sleeping watching this movie like how my nephew caught me sleeping watching Despicable Me 4.

I could accept Jumba being the main antagonist (because Gantu didn't do much in the original), but I'm concerned now about how far they went with it.

Oh, and how Nani ends the movie is also borderline character assassination, albeit less so, but still rough.


Not even sure how they could screwed her up.

Lilo & Stitch is my favourite Disney film and one of my favourites in general. Everything that I've seen and read about this remake is disappointing or even a bit upsetting.

Edit: Unfortunately, the children don't care and I'm gonna get roped into seeing it. I must prepare, because Mufasa was genuinely one of the worst things I have ever seen and I'm not emotionally invested in that series like I am with L&S...

I'm figuring it's for budget reasons. Same reasons Jumba and Prickly have human disguises. Stitch is the only CGI creature for most of the film.

This is already set to earn a shitzillion dolans because of a cute CGI critter and nostalgia, so get ready to get more remakes like Moana, or The Rock's ego trip.

The trailers for this actually looked good. And Lilo and Stitch while good, had room to i prove on, like strengthen the Lilo and Nani scenes, and scale back on the dumb toy commercial chase scenes.

This one was so easy to do. The choices they made make no sense.

At least this movie doesn't seem soulless based on the trailers, although I've never watched the original so can't be too sure.

Reading these spoilers, I have to wonder if the people making it actually watched the original. Gantu is the only change I can sort of understand for budget reasons. And even then, that's only if you look at the movie in a vacuum and not the franchise that spawned from it.

Honestly I think that might be the reason these changes are so upsetting for this movie in particular. It's not a fairy tale or old legend where there's wiggle room to try new things. This is an original story made in the modern era with clearly defined characters and themes.

...why would your instinct be to go see this remake that everyone says is bad instead of the original?

the average person is an idiot with 100 IQ and no media literacy and barely any literacy at all. They dont understand what makes a good movie and wont stop spending money on any slop that is marketed and has funny tik toks. Consider the type of person that thought Skylar White was a bad character because she gets in the way of Walter being a drug lord or who hated Joffreys actor IRL because they thought he was actually the character in the show

While that's an insanely fucked ending for Lilo and Stitch, does Nani actually lose custody like in a court battle or does she give up and choose what's "best" for Lilo in the movie's logic by letting her live with David's grandma? Both still extremely fucked but the second is maybe a playable angle?

A bit of the latter, but as you established, this is still exceedingly dumb.
I mean I'm not sure what I expected from the people that wrote quite literally nothing else?

Given most of rhe users here haven't seen the movie im going to reserve judgement til I see it for myself.

Disney adults seem to have failed to understand after all these years that these movies are not made for 2000s kids it is made for 2025 kids and those two things are very different.
