From a critical standpoint though Maleficent and Oz had not performed well, they struck critical gold with Frozen and Cinderella and it paved the way for the films to retain more of the original themes and music of the films Jungle Book further cemented this theory for them.
They are still honouring the legacy of the previous animated musical films whilst doing their own take and spins of the original source. They are finding more success critically and commercially producing adaptions rather than reimagining their films. They are going to can the Tinkerbell solo live action film too and make a Peter Pan film instead and don't be surprised if Rose Red gets shelved in favour of a Snow White remake.
Another live action Peter Pan? I liked the Jeremy Sumpter one. I realize that wasn't Disney and neither was Pan as far as I know but you'd think they'd be cautious with that title given that Pan didn't perform so well at the box office. I don't believe the other one did either, did it?

Of course, I'm still going to see it and I'm sure he'll do a good job, but I'm just disappointed after they're hiring the right people for roles like Moana, Mulan, and Mowgili
