From what I understand, the new production will be called ‘Snow Brown and the Seven They/Thems.’

According to film critic Jerry Asshat, “It’s really a genius move.”

LOL

“We wanted to do something totally new,” said Disney CEO Bob Iger of the new production, “but we’ve run out of ideas. So we’re going to just re-release our old movies, but with black people and transvestites in them.”

Does anyone wonder why I'm always talking about old movies?

Never thought about it but now that you mention it, it's probably the same reason I do. Of course, your "old" and my "old" aren't necessarily the same thing, mine's pretty much limited to what was shown on classic movie channels when I was growing up. Speaking of animated foreign films (I do know we weren't), did you ever see The Tripletts of Belleville? Strange little movie but oddly enjoyable.

I adore The Triplets. Utterly brilliant movie, especially the Belleville Rendezvous number at the beginning. The French Mafia with their stretch 2CV limousines are hilarious.

The film and the song were both nominated for Oscars.

Not sure how I even heard about it. I used to track Oscar nominations but didn't usually track down foreign films so I must have heard a review, maybe Siskel & Ebert.

You might be amused by a FNDP comment I made a few months ago that includes Belleville Rendezvous 😺

Totally missed it, thanks for pointing it out.

I see Walter Chaw is still there. He used to do reviews on epinions.com and I asked him a lot of questions about how he learned so much. In the end, I decided that I preferred the freedom of being an average moviegoer who could just watch movies and not have to critique them.

My love of movies was a gift from my father. We watched countless films when I was growing up, especially when I was a teenager and an undergrad. We were lucky to live in a college town with excellent campus movies shown in classrooms at night.

I love this Snow White card from Inkognito. Her casket is a Messerschmitt Kabinenroller, a tandem two-seater made from 1953 to 1964.

Car looks very familiar, maybe it appeared in some movies I saw from that era.

I've never seen it in a movie. I first saw one live in Germany circa 1968. There's one in the excellent Forney Museum of Transportation in Denver.

The world has already gotten a peek at Disney's upcoming live-action remake of Snow White, but the plot of the film has been kept tightly under wraps — until now! If you thought the leaked set photos of the dwarfs were controversial, just wait until you hear about the updates they've made to the story.

The Babylon Bee has exclusively obtained the following list of plot points... (more at link)

LOL!

As she eats the apple, Snow White keeps reminding everyone she's vegan: According to the leaks, she does this 32 times in the film.

Q: How can you tell if someone is vegan?
A: Don't worry, they'll tell you in the first two minutes of conversation 😺

I imagine the existence of a point of commonality between vegans and crossfitters makes them both deeply unhappy.

 

This pleases me.
