What i Don't get is why Disney when doing live action remakes choses the animal movies for the dirty deed. 101 Dalmatians, Jungle Book, and now Dumbo...
The magic of those movies in animation is that the animals can talk, can do and act like a human. When you put them in a live-action setting people want it to be "realistic" so they mute them, and all the charm of the original animated film is gone. Like imagine a live-action Lion King with "realistic" mute lions lol.
They should look more at the human movies, at least the characters would be consistent. Heck with the effects nowadays films like Hercules or Mulan or even Hunchback would look amazing as live actions.
It's because theoretically animal movies lend themselves well to live-action, but it depends. The animals in
101 Dalmatians work better as real animals than something like
Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers where the characters would need to be CGI like
Alvin and the Chipmunks and lose their animated charm just as Alvin did. But yes, even if it does work in live-action, the animated versions will still often be the most appealing because of the kind of strengths that animation has over live-action.
As for
The Lion King, that's one animal movie that I could never see working in live-action. At all.

When will they learn? Why not just do a Frozen live action remake. I mean for God's it's been out for 8 months, what are they waiting for?!?!
I'd answer you, but for once I'm getting through a topic without the need to have to bring up my complaints about
Frozen.
