    Because it’s ten thousand times easier and more profitable to market a property that already exists than something new.

    Why do you think remakes and reboots exist at all?

          Did you read what I wrote?

          There are two separate things here. The IP for little mermaid, and Ariel. I’m talking about changing the movie so it’s not Ariel, but some other mermaid.

              You are fucking retarded.

              No. I’m saying make a new little mermaid movie. Make the main character black. Just don’t call her Ariel. No one would give a shit then, minorities get representation, the movie makes a billion dollars, everyone is happy.

              How about we remake the color purple but only cast Asian people?
