![]() Still, CGI capabilities have come a long way since the movie was released in 2010. ![]() The Rapunzel fairytale made the princess's hair an absolute must for Disney's animated film, and the studio truly nailed it. Upon its release, Tangled was Disney's most innovative film yet, which should qualify it for a live-action remake. The original animated movie was the first of Disney's to switch to CGI instead of traditional 2D animation, which made Rapunzel's hair all the more impressive. However, Tangled offers nearly as many challenging opportunities. It will give Disney a chance to prove its stuff with award-worthy Life of Pi-like CGI- not to mention the giant goddesses that turn into greenery-covered islands. The likely appeal of making Moana a live-action film is the vast ocean scenes. Therefore, the fact that Mother Gothel was among the last traditional villains is precisely why she needs to be in a live-action remake. Since Tangled, the House of Mouse has taken a new route with redeemable villains or those who turn out never to have been evil in the first place (like Te Kā). This made her the type of villain that audiences loved to hate-and that's Disney's favorite kind. Rapunzel's adopted mother in Tangled was elegant and beautiful on the surface but manipulative and evil beneath. Disney is known for its deliciously despicable bad guys-like Tangled's Mother Gothel. However, it does leave audiences wanting in the villain department. It was a fun twist and one that is sure to be visually stunning in live-action. However, once Moana and Maui began their epic battle, the heroin realized that the lava monster was just the goddess Te Fiti without her heart. For much of the animated film, it's assumed that Te Kā is the central bad guy. However, it really should have been Tangled that started this new live-action journey.Īnother thing that made Moana unique was the lack of a traditional villain. The news that a newer animated film was being remade has opened the door of possibilities for others to follow. This was a surprise since House of Mouse's previous live-action remakes had been the studio's older movies that could benefit from a modern twist. ![]() However, because Tangled was released several years before Moana and is full of details that would make it perfect for live-action, it should have its chance in the new medium first.ĭwayne Johnson, who gave his voice to Maui in the animated version of Moana, took to Twitter to announce that a live-action remake (which he would be taking part in) was in its early stages at Disney. The girl from Motunui is one of Disney's most unique heroes, and Maui was a fast fan favorite. This isn't to say that Moana's story isn't deserving. Moanahas officially been announced as the next Disney Princess movie to get a live-action remake, but it should have been Tangled. ![]()
