The Brothers Grimm wrote this in 1820.
I'm not against a woman being respected and valued. But you know what? The Prince DID respect and value Snow White in the brief time we see him! When he first noticed her, it was hearing her beautiful singing voice - just like Eric noticed Ariel. When he first saw her, she was in rags and for all he knew, she was just a serving girl. And true, when he approached her, he startled her, but we're talking about a young character who has been abused by her stepmother and is supposed to be innocent and pure here.
So when he realised he had startled Snow White, the Prince didn't chase her, he didn't play the overbearing jock type (unlike some Princes coming not long after him). instead, as she had sung for him, he sang for her, a beautiful ballad promising her patience, gentleness, tenderness, and dedication. He apologised for scaring her. And it was not him who sent the dove - in fact Snow White offered the dove's little kiss to him! Snow White loved how ROMANTIC he was and literally told the dwarfs this was what first attracted her to him.
Of course you know, it's a tiny bit 'weird' for a guy to do this IRL, but it was their first ever meeting, and Snow White gave no indication of not enjoying it; maybe this is just the Prince's way of buying a pretty girl a drink.
Ah I was right the first time it was the 1800s!! This is such a nice detail of the original story. Obviously Rachel Zegler doesn’t know this.
@@gmflorioThe way Zegler speaks of the original movie, I wonder if she's even properly aware of the Brothers Grimm story. Snow White is very brave and optimistic considering she's a young girl who's almost been murdered and been chased from her home in the one day.
I mean this is a story with a moral about vanity - why else would there be a MAGIC MIRROR in it? The original story even had the queen using tight corset laces and a poisoned comb to attack Snow White, which the dwarfs saved her from, but the only thing that worked was tricking her into eating a POISONED APPLE - remember another famous evil apple? The apple, in fact, is a metaphor for the loss of virginity and since Snow White was tricked through her trusting, it could even be classed as a metaphor for... r***...
It really doesn't matter what ethnicity plays Snow White (although it really was asking for trouble this time). Because the Mirror spoke equally as much of inner beauty, the purity and humility of Snow White, as opposed to the cruelty and vanity of the Evil Queen, it meant that there was NOTHING the Evil Queen could do to be more fair than Snow White. The more she obsessed over her appearance, the uglier she became. Sadly, Zegler simply doesn't project the purity and humility that is still required of the character - not in real life, and not in the trailer. Snow White is not a Warrior Princess - I mean, riding into battle will literally sap you of innocence.
And I'm not talking about the Disney version - though Walt Disney clearly understood the original. I'm talking about the basic, 200-year-old story which Bob Iger and his writers are ravaging without mercy in their desire to keep the IP.
Yeah, I don't know about the rest of you guys but I'm going to rewatch the original and won't be bother watching the new movie coming out. I might also watch the Snow White and the Evil Queen movie that might be coming out too.
think the original tales were from 1804 ;) I have a copy here with the 1814 version :D That being said: too true.
@hyenaholicproductions9033 huge difference between being stalked and being pursued. She doesn't get it.
To me the most despicable thing she said, was sugest that Her coleague Andrew Burnap had his scenes as the Prince cut, because his part would be useless. "Maybe Andrew have all his scenes cut, we don't know, it's Hollywood baby" 🤮🤮🤮 what kind of person talks about a coleague like that?!
That’s when they should have recast Rachel and started from scratch with someone else.
A little snot, that's what kind. This comes from being in a generation that thinks 15 minutes of fame makes you an authority.
@@judykpremier and She hasn't been in a single movie that went well at the box office, that's far from success for her to be this arrogant.
Exactly. That was soo Weird Weird. Prince also is an important character. He literally saves her by kissing her.
@@reshmashrestha5694 Not this time around...in the only interview that I've found of Burnap, even the actor said that it's SnowWhite in this adaptation who saves herself and everyone else, poor clueless prince lol!😅
"It's just not fun to have everything turned into a feminist tale." Truer words.
I totally agree
One problem i have is rachel keeps saying how the original was dated on its views of women but...the main villian is the evil QUEEN. There's literally a woman in a huge place of power. It's not man against man, man against a woman, it's two powerhouse female characters with the supporting roles of the magical dwarves and the prince felt more like a prize snow white had won at the end of her trials.
YES! Snow white tries to be evil queen now.
Exactly, literally, the most powerful being was a woman and the protagonist was also a girl- like- 😭
Not only this. The same woman, her stepmother wanted her dead! So, basically it shows how women be toxic to eachother. I had so many bad experiences with fellow women. Most boys were ok to me, but girls were always jealous 😢
Honestly the princess films tend t have women as villains, exception being Pocahontas, Frozen, Beauty and the Best. Moana has no villain and is therefore disqualified from this discussion but if not well, the island thing is female also. Even Raya has a female villain.
Women rarely became queens, which doesn’t counter the narrative of them being portrayed merely as damsels in distress, valued only for their looks and submissive nature.
Even the queen’s entire story arc revolves around the idea of women competing to be the fairest. The queen was literally a villain who wanted to kill another woman just because she wanted to be the most beautiful. What kind of narrative is that again in terms of women power ?
It’s so disgusting that Zegler’s complaining about being underpaid while making MILLIONS for wearing that dress. Meanwhile there are family’s of single moms getting paid minimum wage trying to support their kids. Absolutely disgusting!
She's the dictionary definition of privileged
She's young . Everyone was saying dumb stuff at that age
@@troycambo well then she better learn to grow up fast ...but looking at what drama she recently stir up again, i dont think she will wanna grow up mentally.
I am a feminist. I believe in equality. I believe men and women should have the freedom to choose who they are and what they want to do.
This movie spits on everything I believe in. Stripping away everything that made Snow White Snow White, and shitting on it in the process? Whether they admit it or not, they are taking a fat dump on women as a whole and insisting they need to be a certain way to be valuable and good. They need to be bossy, self centered, and never touch house chores - literally the exact same type of person older feminism hated in men.
Disney has become the thing it sought to destroy.
I saw the leaked scene for example when Snow White bosses the dwarfs around the clean up. I can see they're trying to avoid the whole traditional gender roles thing, but context doesn't seem to matter anymore. In the original, she cooks and cleans for the dwarfs to do something nice for them, hoping they'd give her a place to stay, not because she was forced to do it. Traditional gender roles are seen as a form of male oppression, yet ironically the only person who oppressed Snow White was ANOTHER WOMAN!
That new scene is Rachel Zegler all over, not Snow White, and I'm hoping this will be the movie when Disney finally learns that audiences are tired of going to the movies to have political agendas rammed down their throat when they just want to enjoy a good story. Sure, movies have always had messages, but not nearly as on the nose as this. And studios wonder why audiences don't go to the cinema anymore?
In the original movie she thinks that there are 7 orphans living in the house.
@@MarcoCandela also, SHE cleans the house for them, wanting in return for them to allow her to stay with them. She doesn't boss them around to clean their own house. That trailer was a nightmare. I WILL NOT be spending money to see this movie, and probably many others will skip it too, and "very evidently so" 😂
I miss the days when movies were fun, enjoyable escapist fare!
@@gmflorio Amen! But alas, modern movies have turned cinemas into a lecture hall, pointing judgmental fingers at us.
It is a modern fairy tale, Snow White does not have to work while she plays seven sugar daddies off against each other.
The Brothers Grimm did not invent their fairytales, they collected them from oral history all around Germany, old tales that were told by generations of ordinary people. That's why there are different versions of these stories.
As I recall, the earliest known version of the story, the Evil Queen is Snow White's mother, not stepmother.
No@@edwinphilips5212
I'm sick of watching the brainless rambling of that girl over and over again. She didn't watch the movie as an adult, has no idea about the context at the time, she doesn't know the original story, and yet has a lot of opinions on both. Embarrassing.
Zegler even confirmed to have hated Disney's Snow White as a child, as she found it to be "scary" and "creepy"
You could just not watch then. You have the power.
She's a kid we all said dumb stuff at that age
@kingandrewcecil348 it's her opinion. If she had a canned response ppl would whine about actors not giving real candid opinions
This film is about to be the pinnacle of Disney wokism. I know they delayed it to reshoot certain parts because it was too goofy and too out there, but it's still going to flop. It's going to flop hard. This girl needs to learn some social graces and drop the negativity campaign.
Part of the reason it will flop is because audiences are desperate for original ideas. The nostalgic remakes with a woke twist has been over done and do not work anymore. Audiences do not want this.
Well said 👏
Rachel is not Snow White and I’m not even talking about the looks OK I’m not even gonna get into that cause I don’t wanna get yelled at even though that is a part of it but I’m talking about personality off screen that does not have the personality of snow white and as far as I’m concerned The voice isn’t there either I’m sorry, but if you’re not even gonna try to replicate with the amazing Adriana Caselotti dead if you’re not even gonna try to pay any sort of respect to her, you’re in big trouble in my book because that voice, you hear it you know it’s snow White this Just like any other high school kid I’m sorry but let’s be real that terrible personality equals Knogo.
@@carla8687 I don’t think she wants to learn and if you look at what she said at the 23 yes it sounds sweet, but if you listen to the tone of voice, it’s so fake and so disingenuous and apparently she’s got this book on her face like I don’t wanna do this she’s acting like a spoiled child got scolded by mother and father and is being forced through punishment. that’s what I get that that’s the vibe I get with these new interviews that came out from 23. They are so fake and so forced. We already know how she feels and she will slip up again before it’s all said and done. Just watch.
She's a young kid. We all made mistakes as young ppl
@@troycamboShe is not a young kid and you trying to let her off the hook for her atrocious behavior is disgusting!
Feminism was never about excluding falling in love or losing your femininity. It was about women having rights, and being equal. Feminist now a days need something whine about. Look at the character Elle Woods. She's a lawyer, that loves fashion, who got married to the man she loves.
Agree.
Legally Blonde is a classic for this reason 👍👍👍👍👍
Yes! I'm not sure how feminism got so twisted up in Hollywood. We need more Elle Woods in movies.
She was never snow white, getting the role does not mean you will be seen as the character, the girl the played the little mermaid got the role, but will never be seen as the little mermaid. Rachel's career is over. No one will ever watch a movie with her in it.
Did you want to be a princess ...
yea never knew Rachel but will avoid at all cost
Replying to jeremyshoemaker
I never did see the remake of west side story because it didn’t need a remake and I don’t like remakes for the purpose of making more $$$.
I doubt she was a toxic personality at that point, and I bet she did a pretty good job as Maria. But I don’t plan to see anything she does going forward, not that I’d be the target audience I bet.
@mackthemouse8443 I don't know if I remember anything she has been in and don't care anymore lol love the original and I respect that bro, they do everything to change the perspective and make money.

"And who's the most entitled one of all?" Princess Cappuccino, formerly known as Snow White.
As someone who is Gen Z I absolutely loved the older movie, books everything about the premise of love stories and characters. It honestly makes me feel sick seeing how people can’t just let people like a simple story or can’t take time to just sit and make their own opinions based on what they themselves think, instead of following cancel culture or toxic feminism.
she is sooooo insufferable
She's just a young kid thrown jn the spotlight. We all made mistakes
I'm all for inclusion & diversity as a biracial woman who's not traditionally feminine, but it has gotten ridiculous in the last decade. When the source material describes a character in a SPECIFIC WAY physically & in personality, then it makes more sense to cast someone who matches that description. There are other versions of Snow White that are not 'traditionally feminine' or 'white as snow.' This entire 'girl boss' Snow White being shoved in our faces is completely unnecessary and unwanted. Zegler is 1 of many mistakes Disney has made and the company deserves everything that comes from this disaster.
Yes, there are versions where she's not as white as snow, and this is one of them. If they remove one little line from the movie, then her skin colour becomes totally irrelevant. One of the last big Snow White films had her in full armour welding a sword, charging into battle, and no one said boo to it. Dumbo was nothing like the original yet no outrage over the changes. Only The little mermaid and Snow White got the outrage. I wonder why? I would have gone with someone a little more like the original film but I'll at least watch it before I crucify it, unlike most folk.
@@andrewmccomisky7236 Yes, it's obvious what the "issue" was with TLM and there is sadly a lot of that talk again. It's terrible that people still find excuses for thay nonsense, & Disney didn't really do anything to protect Hallie or defend her.
The biggest issue to me is Zegler's attitude during interviews and just her general demeanor. I honestly have never heard of her until now so Idk how she carried herself before now. I realize a lot of it can be explained by her inexperience in Hollywood, but someone should have took the time to tell her how this kind of behavior is not making her or the film look good.
I'm watching the original movie, started it the other night, the mirror gives the three descriptions of the princess, he does nto say her name, and the Evil Queen immediately knows who he is talking about. But tw fo those things do not fit Rachel Zegler, her skin is not the hue of snow, and she does not have the rose red lips.
That's not her fault. Blame the casters
Do feminist girlbosses realize that in their feministic world, women would not be prioritized to be rescued in sinking ship situation, such as in Titanic incident? There would be no "women and children first" when the lifeboats are deployed, it would be only "children first", women must queue in line just as the men.
They don't.
I for one would love to be the first off the titanic.
Well, I don't consider myself a feminist, I don't know much about it, but why do you think this situation should scare me? My life is no more important than the other. Healthy feminism for the right to choose. I really don't need privileges because of my gender, but for some it comes to absurdity. You can be both a boss and a princess - it's your right and no one should judge you. I think Rachel hurt adequate feminism with her inadequate expressions.
And there would be no one to care for the children. The position of caring for children supersedes all other positions.
I don't want to be prioritized as the first ti be left off a sinking ship if that's your excuse for treating women like second-class idiots.
I remember back when people were talking about the casting of Ariel and how it's okay for her to be black. "It's not like she's Snow White, with skin as white as snow." But then, that argument died when Rachel was cast.
I have no issue with skin color, and Rachel CAN SING. Even the tiny bit of singing that the trailer had is amazing. My main problem with Rachel is her attitude. I wish she'd handled those initial interviews better. It's almost laughable how condescending and stupid she acted as a "Disney Princess".
The same people who defended the Ariel casting were foaming at the mouth in rage when the Nani casting for Lilo and Stitch was announced.
She just young and immature and like so many young women, has an exaggerated opinion of herself.
@bjreacher6402 halle was amazing when she got casted as Ariel. She clearly expressed her love for the original work and was never once disrespectful, even though many people didn't agree with her as Ariel. It's not hard to be nice.
@@ariaojou You are mostly correct but Halle did pull a weirdness where she claimed it was impossible for black girls to see themselves as Ariel, while at the same claiming that when she was like eight or something she would swim around in the pool acting out as if she were Ariel. These two things PROBABLY can go together but only if Halle believes herself to not be an accurate representatin of black girls and how they respond to things which circumvents around to why she specifically took this role. Had she not said that and instead just treated it as a role she was playing and not stressed skin color, that would have been better.
And you know one thing Zegler has NEVER done, at least not in regards to Snow White? Stressed skin color. I do think Disney is going in a new direction, starting with Descendants Rise of Red, where they finally act as if people are people, BUT it might come at a cost, which is seen in the sng Ella sings, "Get Your Hands Dirty,?" which I think is Disneys' new mantra and though I haven't seen it yet (waiting for it dto drop n Disney+), I have heard that INside OUt 2 explroes that as well.
@@ariaojou That's what they say and if so, it's nice to have someone who appreciates what they've been given. However I'm tired of all the DEI casting both in movies, TV series and commercials just for the sake of DEI. Maybe Halle was the best pick for that role of all that tried-out or maybe they chose her because they wanted a black Ariel. Just as in the job market and college admissions it is racist and part of their agenda. That's where I get disgusted.
The original story of Snow White will still be around long after her career is over…
Learning that she was supposed to play a character in paddington 3 but was removed later on gave me some kind of relief....leave the wholesome movies alone.
Wholesome? The Prince sexually assaults her when he thinks she's dead.
She is not leaving the wholesome movie alone, though. She is the voice of a princess in a movie dropping on Netflix on November 22nd as direct competition to Moana 2 that comes out five days later. This movie is called Spellbound and John Lasseter produced it over at Skydance.
She is so arrogant and at 23 years she needs some life experience.
Unless she changes her approach her acting career is going to be VERY short lived, and that won’t be becuase of Hollywood - it will be because no one in the public will want to see her in her movies.
She needs some, humility, maturity, listen and learn from more experienced actors, focus on the role and not the activism as it’s killing her public image and her long term career.
She's still a kid. The hate is over the top. Don't add to the mob mentality
Her free Palestine shows her lack of respect for her co star, who is Israeli.
I really like your break down of what the problem is now with young girls. The only thing I don’t agree on is that I don’t find Rachel Ziegler beautiful. To me, calling her pretty is still a stretch. But then beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I will definitely be staying home and watching the original and not going to the theater for this Woke version.
My husband keeps telling me the same thing. He was like “you really find her pretty??” 😂
I think it’s the short hair it doesn’t suit her face she looks better with long hair. she has looked pretty with limited makeup and her long.
She's a model..So objectively her face is up there
Yeah, she is very unlikable. And I agree when this movie comes out I'm seriously going to stay home and watch the original just to stick it to Rachel for being such a nasty selfish actress.
There's gonna be a tiktok trend going around when this comes out lmao like #ratherwatchthis or #sorrynotsorryshesbetter 😂
@@emilyangel4real I also think fans might use this opportunity to watch it to see if it is as bad as everyone makes out. In any bad remakes people might still watch it at the end of the day.
@@BlackCatFilmProductions I definitely won't. I haven't even seen the new little mermaid, new lion king, or the fully watched the new lady and the tramp (that one I turned it off within 20 minutes) or new Mulan (that one was shut off within 45 minutes SO BORING).
@@emilyangel4real I know that but tons of film critics and vloggers will be doing it to get their point across to Disney.
Then maybe the media who been payoff will praising Snow White like they did with The Acolyte will lie and say audiences love it because of the Box Office numbers.
Disney sure knows how to pick their leads huh
Miss Zegler lacks the poise, grace, charm and feminity of Snow white's character. She could learn a thing or two from her costar who is an Israeli born woman who served in the military and retained those qualities that Zegler lacks. It is never good when the antagonist of the story is more lovely and likeable than the protagonist.
This happened in Snow White and the Huntsman as well, i.e., Snow White was played by Kristen Stewart who’s awkward and not nearly as beautiful as Charlize Theron who played the evil
queen. Ridiculous! I mean, the mirror would be lying if it said Zegler is the fairest of them all! Fire the casting director! Gadot is gorgeous, intelligent and so adorable. On the other hand, someone ought to tell Zegler she’s not as cute as she thinks she is. And tell the Disney bigwigs they’re not big enough to deface a beloved classic.
My husband says the same about Rachel Zegler lol. And yes Gal Gadot is drop dead gorgeous!
Yeah, Gadot beautiful
While Charlize was more beautiful than Kristen in the film, at least Kristen conducted herself with respect and thoughtfulness about the fact that she was playing a classic fairytale character. I didn’t give her Snow White the time of day back then, but Zegler’s unpleasant attitude made me appreciate Kristen’s Snow White.
Yes, but we must admit that also in the original movie the queen is beautiful. I think the concept of beauty, as interpreted by the mirror, goes beyond body appearances. Snow white is not only beautiful but she is also pure and kind.
@@MarcoCandela And Rachel is neither nice or kind.
I absolutely love your channel, it is so underrated. Finally someone who has similar view as me and lots of us women who are not totally leftist woke but not hard-core trad wife conservative either 😅 I absolutely would love to be a wife , being taken care of and fall in love and have kids and yet I would prefer to continue doing my job ( although job is not centre of my life and I wouldn't mind quitting it if it's ever required ) . It's so sad that women now a days think being rude and condescending and hating love and men is empowering.
I hope you don’t mind hearing from a conservative, but I still do have the feelings that you do I just I don’t think Rachel is the proper snow White and I’m not trying to be racist or anything like that but she doesn’t fit snow white in any capacity I’m sorry she just doesn’t Unlikable, the voice doesn’t match and singing or speaking. The personality isn’t there and I’m sorry, but the looks aren’t there either but if you still have the problem with the fact that the iconic personality and the iconic voice are gone and you need to have all three things to make it work.
@Leamichellefan2244 yeah I agree 100%
@@gloriahota thank you and thank you for not attacking me and calling me well a racist. It’s really refreshing because every single time I speak the truth about Rachel. I get called back because apparently I’m not allowed to make any sort of observation that isn’t kissing her ring if your part the expression.
Well said ☝️😫
I appreciate that and I'm glad you're here! I think there are a lot of women who feel the same as you do. And the two extreme corners of the internet don't really make space for everyday women who want something different than the caricature of feminist girl boss or trad wife.
I'm so afraid young parents who have never seen the original will take their children to this soulless remake. The original is beautiful.
Need to make this clear, a lot of people have no problem or should not have any problems with Rachel as Snow White, but she comes off so crass and angry in her own movie and her own role, she comes off incredibly unprofessional. Now she and disney would probably blame racism for their potential downfall
This video has helped me catch up on why there is so much negativity on Rachel Zegler.
It definitely does not make sense why she took in this role if she dislikes the original so much.
She is young and naive, speaks her mind and is confident in doing it.
She has a right to her opinions, but lacks the respect over the views of others, so she’s jumping in with all her thoughts, articulating it in a way that completely alienates people who do not share these views.
Because she is so confident and firm with her ideals, she is coming across as entitled and a little bit arrogant. It doesn’t help that she adds snide comments along the way, which in some cases were meant to be light hearted jokes, but because people have developed a negative feeling about her, these comments only serve to turn peoples’ dislike to something even worse.
She needs a reset in her mind, a reality check of where she is and who she is. And she needs to be reminded of the honour she has in playing such a big role, in this case it’s not about her, it’s about Snow White and treating that character and story with respect. She’s not the only one, the people creating the movie share the same responsibility, and if the changes are what has been suggested in the interviews, then this movie will be an absolute disaster, as they clearly did not understand the fundamentals of what made it a classic to billions of people.
She's the typical "never told no as a child"
Yeah we all made mistakes as kids
As a shallow man I can confirm, gal is prettier than Rachel.
Period.
This movie could put Disney in their Grave. It'll hands down be biggest Bomb in Disney history. What's Ironic is that it was Snow White that put Disney "On The Map"
It will be the complete opposite of coming around full circle.
You don't get it, they have money, they have unlimited money because they're pushing Blackrock's agenda
Good analysis. I did like The Westside Story. But RZ has done so much damage to herself that I don’t want to see any more of her “acting”. When your offscreen personality is so ugly that a viewer can’t see your acting, the movie is no longer enjoyable. I like your analysis of femininity and the lack of it in the latest generation because of modern feminist’s ideals.
As a gen z, I’m so tired of the girl boss crap. Like, JUST GIVE ME A DAMN LOVE STORY
I don't know... it's pretty girl boss to be resilient and remain yourself even after facing trauma, having the willingness to still search for the good in the world despite having mostly seen the evil. I always looked at that aspect as inspiring, she remains sweet and kind, and is brave enough to face the world head on in not assuming the worst in people after what she has gone through, that type of response has always felt so much more powerful to me who is similarly soft-spoken, non-confrontational, and tries to look on the bright side of life (à la Monty Python if you catch my drift.)
The thing is, it's not just about having feminism shoved down your throat, it's the same brand of feminism! Feminism can be about demonstrating the scope of what women want and are. A wonderful, sweet, kind and thoughtful Snow White and a diabolical, scheming and powerful Queen, are already two great dichotomies to explore. Even a simple twist of some semi-reconciliation between the two at the end, even if you don't love that plot, would have served to make their point. Why they think it's feminist to measure strength as being the most obnoxious person in the room is beyond me.
You can be a bad-a$$, but still have a cherished companion. It's human nature to need to be around and with someone - be it family, friends, pets, and yes, even a lover and companion. ☺💖🥰
She tweeted « oh and by the way Free Palestine » completely out of context right after some kind of promo for Snow White. She’s obviously jealous that Gal Gadot is still loved while she’s hated by everyone and it does sound like a dig to Gal on the backs of the victims of what’s happening there (on both sides).
So I completely understand the point people are making
idk about the "Gen z not liking old and traditional" when gen z LOVES old trends.. especially styles back in the day. bffr
Never thought in all my life id hear a generation say that Love is a bad thing, but then unfortunately someone like Rachel Zegler was born
First of all, Rachel looks too old to be believable as a teenager. She seems to have alot of wrinkles for someone of her age. Why didn't Disney cast one of those actresses from the Descendants series? They can sing and dance, has more experience to portray a Disney princess, and seems more likable.
They're race-swapping left and right. Making everything "woke". Just imagine what the world would come to if they swap Tiana for a white chick if they ever do a live action of that. Or Pocahontas, for someone who's not even a native American (I'm saying any tribe, not just Powhatan which was Pocahontas tribe). That would ruin them even worse than Rachel is ruining them. This and Pocahontas are the two Disney films that they CANNOT race swap in any way that makes sense. In The Little Mermaid, yeah that made sense because in the real story they never describe her appearance, BUT Ariel is the most popular princess, so everyone was so excited to see their favorite princess brought to life, that's why that wasn't taken so well. I was angry with this one because there is a description of Snow Whites appearance, for goodness sakes she doesn't even have a real name, her name is SNOW WHITE. Sure, go ahead and swap it whatever but as soon as Rachel opened her mouth, ugh I can't stand her, they're changing the story like crazy, this is gonna be their BIGGEST. FLOP. EVERRRRRR.
I love the original but I am more interested in the Daily Wire's version of the like action Snow White.
Feminism is not about be a powerful no need love woman. but equal rights and respect. so I dont thing the movie is about feminism. actually, I think that woke dysnny doing a lot of harm to feminism because instead respecting a woman as she is (including dreams about love and the ability to clean..or cook..) they make women hatefull
Why can someone give Rachel Zegler an attitude adjustment.
Most actors with that kind of attitude don't get any good roles anymore and went downgraded in guest roles on TV.
Watch the movie "Once upon a time in Hollywood."
My family and I are getting tired of Disney’s attitude towards ruining classics with these remakes anyway. But Rachel’s attitude is horrendous. I absolutely refuse to support her and will not be spending a penny on this film. No interest in seeing this in the theaters or streaming on Disney. Maybe they’ll stop butchering the classics. My husband told me he’s sick of all the girl power movies and quite frankly I agree. Classics are classics for a reason they don’t need to be changed. People might not agree or say I’m cruel great everyone has the right to their opinion but I hope this movie bombs big time. Maybe Disney will wake up and stop trying to sell us this dumpster trash. The CGI looks awful, the dwarves are terrifying and I’ll never support any movie Rachel is in. If others feel differently about seeing this great but we won’t be seeing this.
I think what bothers me is this attitude at Disney in particular, that it's good to be antagonistic and deliberately provocative towards the fans of the IPs managed by them. I'm a latino guy and I was put off by Zegler's casting. Not because I don't like people who look like me, but because it was so obviously a move made to set up the audience to raise an eyebrow. In essences, they baited a response. It isn't racist to point out that the casting is by definition, contrary to the original story. But they seemed to *want* to jump on fans and accuse us of racism, when that isn't the case. I'm annoyed that instead of a story that has latinos and latinas in it, they just reskinned Snow White, and then eagerly attacked anyone who dared question the decision. I don't understand it. But Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Mulan, and other IPs and movies have made antagonizing the fans part of the marketing.
To what end? True racists aren't going to stick around to debate or learn. And those like me who don't like being accused of being awful for questioning the decisions of the multi billion dollar corporation, weren't racist in the first place, and don't appreciate the accusation, or the sanctimonious attitude towards classic literature and cultural folklore. I don't need Disney and certainly not Rachel Zegler to lecture me about women's empowerment. I don't recall having an issue with it in the first place. But I certainly don't appreciate the implication that if a woman dreams of falling in love (which most women absolutely do), or that if she isn't interested in "becoming a strong leader," that she has somehow failed modern femininity (which should just be the ability to CHOOSE in the first place)...
I don't know who decided that Disney's job is to use wealthy twenty something year old actresses to condescendingly dismiss the original stories they seek to alter, and to lecture us about what constitutes "modern sensibilities." Again, it's deliberately provocative and creates an automatic environment of contentiousness with the audience, and virtually guarantees the projects that utilize this mindset to catastrophic financial failure (see Indiana Jones, Willow, Batwoman, and the Acolyte, and look to this space when they finally release Snow White). And for what? To lose a ton of money, to create a hostile space between the fans and the actors, and to produce forgettable schlock that will be forgotten but for the antipathy created during their production and advertising?
No one wins this way. Creating division and resentment where none is needed doesn't make the world a better place or make any of us, fans and creators alike, better people. So why act this way, Disney?
I still don't understand why the movie not being about love is "wonderful"?
Toxic feminists hate love
I don't even know why wanting love and being domestic is anti-feminism. Love and companionship is a beautiful concept. Sure, canonically she was 14 and him in his 20s in the disney movie and she was just 7 in the Grimm Brothers' tale but that's a whole different discussion and the attitude towards women wanting love and domesticity is so skewed. Zegler's version of Snow White is just snooty and terribly portrayed from the little I've seen.
I think Halle Bailey was perfectly cast as Ariel. Her mannerisms, her big wide set eyes, her gentle femininity, her voice etc. She truly has the essence of a Disney princess and I think she was a perfect Ariel :) Rachel is the most harsh, loud and condescending “anti-princess” energy I’ve ever seen in Hollywood
She comes off as a know-it-all and feels like she feels how entitled to everything
It is no longer 1937, surely it is about time a trans woman was cast as Snow White.
I don’t think people are saying she’s not pretty or beautiful but comparing her beauty to gals is like night and day, gal is supposed to be jealous of her beauty but objectively gal is more pretty then her by a big margin.
You need your eyes checked. I mean I get it people are like sheep and the anti zegler mob is getting millions of clicks but zegler was a model
@@troycambo maybe English is your 2nd language, so I ask you to read my comment again and understand that I didn’t say zegler was ugly or not a model quality. I said gal is objectively more prettier then zegler. It’s okay if you misunderstood my comment, some people don’t check what they read before they reply.
8:06 the way she talks about andrew, as if she’s indirectly saying they just threw the guy a bone but he does not matter.
Funny how the Princess that saved Disney from bankruptcy will also be the one to cause them that 😂
If Snow White tanks at least she can fall back on that massive body of impressive work she has done to date.
I think you hit the hammer on the head. She is talented and very pretty, but her attitude is bad. I believe she hasn't yet found out how to be strong female, maybe even independent, without offending beloved traditions. You can be a strong girl boss by choice and still respect other women's choices toward the classical.
Consider, for a moment, the uproar that would ensue if Black Panther were to be reimagined with a white male actor, imbued with a narcissistic, entitled, and egotistical demeanor. This reason alone is enough to explain y viewers dislike or hate Rachel Zegler's portrayal of Snow White.
Rachel is viewing life from a young woman’s perspective. She is being told how wonderful and perfect she is. Hence there is no accountability for any of her words or actions in her immediate social circle. However the rest of the world can see the spoiled entitlement of her position in the world and it doesn’t jive with the classic Snow White character. Flop on its way.
I actually wanted a remake of the original Snow White as I thought that with today’s technology it could be done so much better, but this version is NOT my SW. They changed it so much that it’s unrecognisable to the original, they could literally CGI a different dress on her and give it a different title and nobody would know it was supposed to be Snow White.
The whistle while you work scene where SW shows her kindness and thoughtfulness and resourcefulness by tidying up the cottage with the help of forest animals has been changed into her telling the dwarves to do the work.
“You do all the work while I prance around the place and cheerfully berate you to help you set the pace”
No, just noooo! I never thought Rachel was a good choice for the character. I’ve seen her in West Side Story and got to say I preferred the original. I also saw her in Hunger Games and didn’t think she was all that good then either. I am all for DEI and watch films and programs with tanned or black people in them. But Snow White should be played by someone who is “white as snow” They should come up with original ideas not take a white character and race swap. Ariel wasn’t the first race swap. In the original story of Princess and the frog the princess was white so Tiana was swapped too and also Tinkerbell.
Most of the things Rachel said about the original is totally false. The princess never stalked SW and if she thought that it shows how little she knows about the story. Snow White was never a weak character she had the emotional strength to forgive the people who wronged her, the kindness and thoughtless to help strangers, and have trust in them even after everything she’d gone through. In the film she survived two assassination attempts. The huntsman and the apple. In the original story it’s 4 huntsman, comb, lace apple.
I want to see the movie
In a dumpster 🔥 where it belongs 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't exactly blame young people for not appreciating classic femininity because almost every movie for probaly the last 20 years has shoved this one dimensional viewpoint down their throat
she has an intense aura of non sincerity non honesty in everything she says. Too aware of her beauty and she lets us know. I bet the air around her is 3 degrees lower than normal too, she is so cool....IF AT ALL used in the story of oSnow white,, she would be the best evil queen EVERRRRR.. not the quintessence of beauty and goodness of Snow white
Shes too small to be the evil queen. She could pass as an evil dwarf/fish hybrid though...probably.
Me too!! The little mermaid was my favorite Disney movie and I just could not watch the remake. My husband and kids went to see it in theaters and I just couldn’t do it. It’s not right.
Black Barbie doll came out before this woke bs. Black girls had their own Barbie and it was perfect. Difference now are intentions behind and how is promoted. Whole mentality attached to it. Nobody would care ig intentions were good and was done by right people.
Nobody would have a problem if Rachel Zegler was cast as the queen. Then she could say all her terrible behavior was method acting 😂
Zegler is no beauty! Now Gal is another story. She is truly gorgeous, both inwardly and out!
The best description of Zegler and her unlike-ability is, “theater kid”. So full of herself and privileged. She speaks without being thoughtful. She’s smug and crass and entitled.
Rachel needs to be careful if she wants to keep working.
They’re saying but she’s against the Jewish people is because Gal Gadot is Israeli and proud of it, it’s meant as an insult against her
Rachel is being misogynistic. She seems to think the only way a classic love story can work is if the girl is somehow lesser. This says more about her than anything else.
As my grandmother would say “ she got too big for her breeches”. She somehow thinks she is irreplaceable lol.
those Snow Brown comments were RACIST….not a little bit funny wtf
She is so dammn unlikable!!!!!!!
Rachel needs to study history and know that Disney becomes Disney because of Snow White and the seven Dwarfs. Also her ignorance is disgusting. Thanks God she got fired from Disney.
The whole point during the movie is her trying to escape her evil stepmother and survive while hiding as the queen attempts to kill her several ways. The Love Angle is literally not the main focus when the prince only appears in the beginning and then the end of the movie.. And yeah she wants love, who doesn't? Especially growing up with abuse.
I am not having anything to do with that movie! I just bought the 80th anniversary edition of Snow White for the grandkids. I've really quit watching anything Hollywood years ago, as well as television.
Am I the only one who thinks all the hate Rachel is getting is absolutely disgusting and stupid? At first all she said was that she didn't like the Snow White storyline or something like that, that's all. It was her opinion, and she wasn't putting down the show's writers or judging anyone, she is probably going to do her best in her role in the movie. However, now a bunch of imbeciles have started all this stupid drama about her which is HARMING HER CAREER. Rachel seems like a really nice person to me, I think a lot of people are just taking the things she says out of the contest because of these stupid haters and all of this misunderstanding is spreading across the internet like a plague. At least she was honest with her feelings, you know? 🙄 Would you preferred if she lied abou what she though of the show? I swear to God her haters are such disgusting people.
To tell you the truth, I always found the queen more attractive than Snow White
I want the classic love story I’m so sick of them trying to demonize a woman having dreams of love and hope as weakness! Life is hard clearly the Hollywood elites are so out of touch to realize we need a break from our realities to reignite some of those dreams too. We are sick of it!
I always thought that Snow White was the strongest princes of them all. Her authenticity and caring nature was a vortex that drew everyone and everything to her side. The animals, the dwarf, and of course, the prince. She was a natural leader and she used the strength of others to benefit everyone (except the evil queen). I knew it would flop when I saw the trailer and they took her greatest moment of kindness (cleaning the orphans house, as she assumed). And turned it into a “I’m living here and you’re cleaning this shithole for ME!” Gross. Then I looked this shizshow up and saw why that scene was what it was….also I was dying to see some top notch dwarf actors fucken kill my favorite roles of the entire movie. Grumpy and Doc. Oh and OJ Snow White character and beauty had the huntsman risk his very life to let her escape. How is that not a powerful woman??!?!
Nobody ever seems to think about this, but the prince is ( and wants to be) saved by the princess as well.
Her "race" wasn't even an issue for me coz I didn't realise she's not considered white by Americans coz she looks European to me.
She disliking Snow White despite staring in it was definitely a problem. I like fairytales, they're not bad, they're entertaining & can be for children & adults. If you hate them, then just stay away from them, no need to work in one of them.
I stumbled across your analysis of this mess. I liked the way you presented it. Your comments about the rush of fame for RZ brought a quote to mind.
"Taking somebody who is in obscurity and turning them into a face that the world recognizes in an extremely short period of time is not good for people. It does actually kill people." Rick Astley
How does her posting free Palestine means she’s anti-Semitic?! I am Palestinian. I am for a free Palestine, but I have Jewish friends who can go back to Poland who can go back to Russia to their homelands their countries , whilst I can’t even get to my homeland. What a pathetic line to say in your video!
"Pride goeth before a fall" and thine fall has yet to come.
When the Disney remake comes out, I'll watch the original Disney animated movie. Also, I'll be watching the new version of Snow White called "Snow White and the Evil Queen," recently made by the Daily Wire/Bentkey. It stars Brett Cooper as Snow White. Her skin is as white as snow just so you know.
Rachel Zegler has turned me off of watching anything with her in it. But I am dismissive enough of her that if some movie I want to watch happens to include her, I won't skip the film only because of her presence. The whole creation of this 'new' version of Snow White has been such a disaster from rewriting it, Peter Dinklage's entire commentary, the 'magical creatures', the dismal focus group viewings, the reshoots, the CGI dwarfs leads me to believe Snow White 2025 is going to be a total fiasco. Not gonna waste my time or money on this one. On the day of release, I intend to rent the original 1937 version. Then if I can find it I'm going to watch Snow White and the Three Stooges. Going to pass on SW 2025 until it hits some free outlet I access.
The thing is, I wouldn´t think that Rachel is dumb, so why is she behaving so destructive and negatively? My best guess is PR, for good or for worse about everyone has heard of her now. Not sure if anyone would want to employ such a desaster, but I am sure she can still have a bright future in adult movies.
What's with those horrible white clips in her hair 😭 every time i see that picture of her i think its huge white bugs at first and it makes me uncomfortable lol
To keep her hair in place, perhaps?
When someone is not pretty from the inside, it makes them such on the outside, at this point physical beauty doesn't work anymore IMO.
If Name was *Woke Latina and seven amigos* people will not criticize It that much.😂
😂
The new snow white should be called "Beauty and the Brat"
I also agree with the throwing feminism into your face twenty four seven. I still dream of true love but I also dream of making all my dreams come true. Being focus on nothing but a career or in Snow White case a powerful royal is so anti heroine to me.
Btw… EVERY movie that Zeglar has acted in has failed and never made any profit.
Interesting thought eh… Snow White will bomb.
My wife of 53 years always chooses romance but she is her own woman too
It’s 2024, and we still have no idea if Gurlboss Snow ever found love
7:48 ridiculous, the majority of the scenes from 1937 film are of snow white and the dwarves as stated in the title for goodness sake. The prince didn't even appear after their brief romance scene. It's not even marketed as a romance movie. She's so delusional it's disgusting
It's a $4.99 home rental for me. Zigler is a major turn off. Big fan of Gal.
The recommendation: Do not consume Snow Yellow.
