This Friday Disney brings another one of their classic to life. This time moviegoers will be heading into the wild in
The Jungle Book. Directed by Jon Favreau The Jungle Book is a retelling of the classic 1967 film; not to mention the story in which it is based on. The trend of classic animated films getting a live action take does not stop here. This summer moviegoers will head back to Wonderland in
Alice Through the Looking Glass (the sequel to the 2010 adaption); and next year one of Disney's most cherished films,
Beauty and the Beast, will be joining this trend. Things only continue from there as there is take of bringing series such as
Aladdin and
101 Dalmatians back to the silver screen with new interpretations. It seems that Disney is determined to reimagine their animated classic and give them new films for fans to enjoy. Yet as I ponder on these new set of films, I feel that are some movies from the Disney Vault that simply cannot be brought back in this format. Among these forbidden films is the one that solidified and the Disney Renaissance and is recognized as the studio's most cherished feature. I speak of course of none other than
The Lion King.
