Trailer Snow White

Tonguez

A suffusion of yellow

while the humans and animals look great, the Dwarves are horrible

and the Queen is definitely the fairest one of all

Hmm,

I've watched Cinderella (wife loves it, it's...okay), Aladdin (this is probably the only live remake I enjoyed), and Maleficent (which was passable).

The others really...haven't been all that...great. They haven't really caught my fancy.

I think this one may also follow that trend.
 



Did anyone else find the exaggerated American drawl offputting?


Remember "Snow White and the Huntsman", which wanted us to believe that Kristen Stewart was more beautiful than Charlize Theron?

Well, if we follow tradition, Kristen Stewart was definitely fairer (at least at the time) than Theron.

Fair may be considered beautiful to some, but not necessarily. Skin as white as Snow would be more apt for Stewart at the time than Theron (which is why the tale is Snow White in the first place if I recall).

If I were Theron's queen though, I probably would have just let the girl go and be happy because, even if I weren't fairer, I'd definitely still be the most beautiful no matter what some mirror with a messed up sense of what is or is not beautiful says.

Edit: Had a thought that my post above MAY be taken the wrong way if I didn't add something to it, so here it is.

Though the Fairytale literally says, "Skin as white as snow, hair as black as ebony [or raven, depends on which version I suppose] and lips as red as blood, " this is not seen as literal by many in our modern audiences today.

Modern interpretations have it as being symbolic towards the readers in many instance, which white or fair being a symbology of Snow White's purity or innocence compared to the Queen who wasn't pure or innocent (rather instead being evil). Others also say it shows Snow White's courage vs. that of a Queen who rather than face it as she was, would disguise her schemes and hide herself vs. Snow White facing things head on.

The Disney Version probably takes the more modern interpretations of Snow White in how it approaches the movie (don't know, haven't seen the movie at this point, obviously) version in this new live action form of it.
