Will Disney remake Pixar films in live action?

Live action Wall-E...........?

With everything 100% CG.

I want a live action version of Brave because that movie can actually be improved. It fell apart after the first 30 minutes because it went into the mindless fun direction and lost all the exciting drama it had build up. What a huge disappointment it was.

The sad thing is, they won't have any trouble finding people of the right body structure to play the humans.

Anyway so far all they’re remaking are traditional cel-animated movies. They have yet to remake a CGI film in live action, and I’m not sure they’ll bother. Someone mentioned The Good Dinosaur — they could just re-render that with less cartoony character designs and be done with it, because the environments are already photorealistic.

Part of it I think is about refreshing the properties and bringing back old characters into pop culture conversations. Having Dumbo, Aladdin and The Lion King in the same year seems like overkill, but I don't think they will remake Toy Story etc when there are still potential for sequels. I guess they don't have the capacity to do traditional animation anymore and they don't think anything done that way would be a hit.

Imagine the job of casting for live action WALL-E

If they wait long enough, everyone will be fit to fill all roles. No casting process required!

Might as well make a live action Frozen

Don't give them idea's, you know they lurk on this site.

I had never seen this before and it is impressive, most impressive.

Pixar films illustrate the problem with calling these Disney remakes "Live Action". Outside of films like Brave where you could replace the 3D characters with live actors, for many of the films you'd still be dealing with a 3D animation, just with a different "Realism" art style.

I honestly don't think so. It really seems to be their 2D hand drawn animation that they're moving to live action / cg. Pixar already being CG seems redundant

With the kind of money-maker Frozen is I genuinely wouldn't be suprised if we get a live action frozen movie in the next 10 years.

I hope not but I am sure there is demand so they probably will

Cars but with actual actors faces. Like Vin Diesel as a train. Fuck it make a Thomas the Tank Engine movie like that.

Murphy is a really useful engine.

Only if the toys in Toy Story are real people dressed as toys and not CG. Imagine live action Woody and Buzz antics with Tom Hanks and Tim Allen. It’d be hilarious to watch.

Chris Pine as Woody, Jonah Hill as Buzz Lightyear being picked up off the floor by Andy's Mom (Amy Adams).

imagine that movie with the old bastard with house and the balloons in live action

Bring it on.

Disney is creatively bankrupt, so probably.

 

[ZeoVGM]

I don't see it happening soon at all.

I highly doubt Disney would ever remake Pocahontas. It would be eaten alive in this climate.

But Avatar is getting 4 sequels.
