Reminder that these remakes are happening solely because labeling a thing as "live action" that's like 90% cg animation avoids having to pay union animators, and instead can use cheap un-unionized VFX animators

don't hate-watch it, don't go see it to "see what it's like"
if we keep rewarding these cheap films, made to circumvent unionized feature animators by exploiting non-unionized vfx animators- many of which ARE feature animators too- they're just going to make more, let's learn from Disney okay

Consider this another plea to please NOT go see the "How to Train Your Dragon" live action shot-by-shot remake.
Just watch the animated movie. It's one of the best ones out there and it's perfect as it is.
We have to stop encouraging Hollywood to keep making these pieces of trash.

2d animators are unionized and 3d animators are not, which is why hollywood moved to 3d
2D animation is booming in theaters. In China, the film Nobody is outgrossing many of Hollywood's recent CG films—on a $10< million budget.
It's only one example. As 2D films rise, Hollywood's decision to kill them off looks shortsighted. We explore:
