Let's be real here, the Disney live-action remake era was weird. Between the uninspired remakes of classics like "Aladdin" and "The Lion King", it was pretty bad nostalgia bait (cue that one RLM clip where they play the Star Wars adult fan clip). But what if, it was kind of inspired? Okay, here me out. Obviously remaking the later films in the Disney Renaissance is either murky social territory (Pocahontas, Hunchback), or cable movie slop (Hercules, Emperor's). But what if you took a classic literary work, say, Tarzan, and reimagined as something like Peter Jackson's King Kong; part social commentary, part big budget spectacle. Picture this: a wealthy professor launches a major expedition into Equatorial Africa, hoping to find his great discovery, his reluctant daughter betrothed to his chief of security, when he finds his great discovery, a real feral human! Or who gives a whoop, amirite? I mean, I'm basically describing a whole new Tarzan adaptation, with the 1999 film as a cheap excuse for really remaking King Kong 2005 but with a normal sized dude! Sure would be better than the 2016 version. Or maybe I'm just pissed that 2018 is no longer the current era. Seriously, what the hell guys?!
