People were also angry at the civil rights movement, glad the people involved were not scared of making people angry.
Yeah though I prefer if they set it in South America. I don't think Disney have many animated films that featured South America. I also want more Disney Princesses even though we just got 5 in the last ten years.I think they need a Hispanic princess movie (I'm talking animated here), and that's just speaking from pure business sense. They made The Princess and the Frog so they could have a black princess for their Disney Princess brand, but they don't have a Hispanic one when it's such a large and growing minority group in the US and a significant portion of people worldwide. More specifically, something set in Latin America.
#NotMyAriel is trending worldwide on Twitter. I'm scrolling through the hashtag and all I'm seeing so far is people mad that #NotMyAriel is trending.
If they had casted a white girl nobody would be talking about the movie right now. Disney knew what they were doing. Bravo.

I thought Joanna Garcia looked the part as Ariel in Once Upon a Time. I don't remember hersinging but she was fine in the role.I'll reserve judgement on casting until I see/hear some more, I'd have preferred if the actress cast looked as close as physically possible to the 1989 film.. but I realise that's easier said than found as you also need someone with not just a good singing voice, but speaking voice as well considering how integral that is to the plot presuming they don't do something different from the original.
Halle Bailey, whom I'd never heard of until today, at least has an exceptional singing voice from the clips I've seen of her on Youtube.
I'll wait till the bs dies down, it's a **** show in here & on social media at the minute..

Let's face it, the casting of Halle Bailey is the X Factor that makes this Disney live action remake interesting.
As if they were scared of TLM not getting buzz? That's laughable.
Yeah given how successful Maleficent, Aladdin, Cinderella, The Jungle Book, Beauty and the Beast were/are at the box office and next month, The Lion King... The Little Mermaid would have no problem getting attention from the public.As if they were scared of TLM not getting buzz? That's laughable.
It definitely would have gotten buzz, like a few months before it released, but not this much buzz and discussion two years out. It's already trending on Twitter.
Doubt it would have happened otherwise.
I thought Sofia Coppola was still attached to this, sad that it's Rob Marshall.

anyone think they keeping prince eric white ?? it would be quite interesting to see reactions to having a black ariel leave her home and family for a white man
She did her own adaption.
I think Sofia Coppola was directing another version.
