Oh, so it takes place in Europe?

Not unless you guys have annexed Hawaii recently and I missed that in the news.

Well, we know that Obama was born in Hawaii AND he wasn't born in America, therefore Hawaii is not American (... I saw that key and peele sketch yesterday)

ke ea Hawaiʻi has entered the chat

I wish. Have wanted to go for a long time.

Hawaii has a good, free or low cost medicaid program. They also have a state law that makes sure many part time employees get insurance, as well. Somewhere around 95%, of the popualtion, if not more, have some form of insurance.

Has their medicaid program been unaffected by the Trump cuts?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

All states will be affected. Mostly, it means each state will have to spend more of its own money to maintain the same level of care.

What that means for the people will vary by state.

There’s a new lilo and stitch movie?

[-] [email protected] 28 points 5 days ago

Put it in the pile with the rest of the live action swill Disney is pumping out for no reason whatsoever.

They know they have the rights to the originals, right? They don't have to make terrible knock-offs.

Got to keep the copyright fresh somehow

[-] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

It’s absolute garbage, and the ending literally goes against the theme of the first movie (eg - Nani gives Lilo up)

[-] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago

Oh shit, they had a blue print for success and fuzzy family shit and they could not even get that right?

[-] [email protected] 17 points 4 days ago

They also neutered the political messaging of the film - the themes around tourism and how that affects native Hawaiians. Really wish that they had left this scene in the original animated movie.

It’s just so gross, like an attempt to be faux progressive by shipping Nani off to college. Like I am Team Women in STEM - but, this is also playing into the fucked up history of indigenous people having their children removed by the state for bullshit and racist reasons. Especially when ICWA is not something 47 gives a rats ass about.

Also, if they really had to have Nani go to college, the University of Hawaii has one of the best marine biology programs in the world because of natural geography. Nani and Lilo could have stayed together, and just gotten a little help from the neighbor / relative.....

Never saw that deleted scene, but yeah. They should have left it in.

They also changed David from a cool surfer dude, to a nervous wreck, and Cobra Bubbles from an imposing and intimidating MIB with a history with the galactic president, to just some random MIB that doesn't seem to understand anything that's happening.

At least Bronze Age Disney (The Black Cauldron, Pete’s Dragon, and The Rescuers era) were original. People can hate on Black Cauldron all they want, but it had a style.

These remakes are colorless and lifeless, and excise the original themes and messages of the originals.

Just the backgrounds alone on the animated Lilo and Stitch are art - they mixed salt in their watercolor to create beautiful effects.

I’m also so done with the 3D “everyone has the same face” syndrome and lack of aesthetic creativity. IMHO, that sequence with Maui’s tattoos in Moana is the most spirit they’ve shown in a decade.

The part that really pisses me off is that I have heard people say that L&S is the "best of the live action remakes," and having seen Lion King and Aladdin, I can't actually say they're wrong!"

DreamWorks better not fuck up How to Tame your Dragon

Sorry, didn't mean to spoil the movie for you.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago

is lilo and stitch a metroid prequel?

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Totally just misread that as J lo and stitch.
