You know what I think? I think Julie Taymor should've directed the 2019 film and have all the songs from both the original animated film and the Broadway musical and be done like a musical! I would've loved Beyonce to have sung "Shadowland"! Also work on other problems like the CGI expressions and some of the casting. Then it would've been a just as a masterpiece like the 1994 film and the broadway show.

It’s my favorite Disney movie of all time too! I found out about the show when I was just scrolling through KZitem on my grandmas computer (I think I was around 5 or 6 at the time so KZitem was still very new to me back then) and the minute I saw the trailer, you could say I was obsessed. I had a few books of the show and once, I wrote to Julie Taymor when I was 8-9, and I got a signed Playbill of the cast in the mail back (it’s one of my prized possessions ❤️)
