People are talking a lot about a critical scene in the newly released "Cruella" film (spoilers, of course)

Oh right. Shoot I was thinking of Jackman's character in that movie because he looked so much like how most versions of Hook look, and not the actor who plays the actual James Hook. That's where I'm getting confused at.
Now that I know that not only is the inciting incident that 30 sec clip, but that the plot hinges on
sorting through doggie doo doo
S'all good. You're not the first one to make a Hook sympathetic origin story joke with the Cruella movie release, and I keep having to remind people that they literally did the Hook sympathy origin story on a massive budget in recent memory. That movie was garbage so it understandably got memory holed.
I'm expecting them to do this with all their villains. Pretty sure they'll end up doing one of each for the female villains. Can't really see them doing it for all the guys though as, outside of doctor Facilier (who gets hinted at about being maybe being Mama Odie's son), most of them are pretty much straight up evil in the eyes of the public. But the likes of the Wicked Queen, Ursala, Queen of Hearts, Madam Medusa, Mother Gothel, I can see them twisting it to. "Oh they were just misunderstood all along" making it easier for people to say "i like X villain" without having to defend liking an evil character.
You don't need an origin story to make Hook sympathetic, you just have to look at the way the little POS Peter Pan acts towards everyone in the original movie. He sits there laughing as a bunch of mermaids attempt to drown Wendy and only steps in when she picks up a shell to defend herself... I'm certainly not going to just take his word on what went down with the good Captain.
The dad was also right to be upset at the kids in the beginning. They hid his cufflinks and ruined his last good shirtfront! Then he almost killed himself on the toys they refused to tidy up.
I mean, at least that makes sense and doesn't throw the og movie plot under and (little) characterization under a bus?
I'm putting together a pitch to Disney myself. Still working on the slides, but it's basically "Pikmin 2, except with Dalmatians".
The working title is "Dalmatians 2".
Ursula. They have to do a female villain for the neutered corporatized girl power angle
Just put in one Dalmatian, then you can name your movie Dalmatian and tell the origin story of all dalmatians
That could be the pitch for "Dalmatians 1: Dalmatian"
My twist reveal: the Dalmatian that later ends up killing Cruella's mother was actually the realest victim.
Edit: His name is Cain-9

get ready for Wonka taking revenge on the Oompa Loompas of course
People believe the hunter intentionally left offscreen in Bambi was simply "man" - but what they don't realize is that she deserved to die in that field. The hunter's wife and infant daughter were killed in a retaliatory drive-by shooting. Bambi's mother was the driver and the last name on his list.
So the end of the movie will be a massive retcon where Charlie changed him
Now I'm thinking of a young Scar movie starring Micheal B. Jordan and I'm sad it will never happen the way I'd want it.
73% from critics, 97% from audiences on RT and it already has a killer meme. This is what hits are made at of.
This is art.
I saw the movie on Friday, yes that scene was pretty stupid, definitely the worst in terms of wtf that's dumb in the whole movie. The scene makes more sense later on when it gets explained properly. The dogs fly kicking the mum off the cliff is really dumb though. Overall the movie was actually pretty decent. I wouldn't judge the entire movie based on this one scene.
Aren't Dalmatians assholes? I find it hilarious though that the writers were obviously tasked with trying to find a way to make her sympathetic and they went with something so on the nose it could be a monarch butterfly fucking your nostril
You got a source lol
Cause the biggest movie ever is just a bunch of fucking heroes, like an entire collection of them, which has spawned a literal web of spinoffs - for the most part, starring heroes.
Scar is fun because you could go full Shakespearean tragedy with him. He knows he'll never be king because he's the second born and weaker but he thinks his cunning and intelligence is worth more than Mufasa's strength and will. So he kills Mufasa and takes over but is REALLY bad at it and starts seeing Mufasa's ghost everywhere mocking him. Then everyone starts turning on him.
"Throne of Blood" but with Scar.
I guess, but my point was that Thanos became as popular and a meme.
No one hates him. People like the edge.
